Han Ya leaned on the railing and looked at Baidi City from afar. In front of the loft on the cliff opposite, Beidi's elite soldiers had all assembled, and the flames were soaring into the sky.
With an order, Beidi soldiers walked down the mountain in unison, with neat steps, shaking the sky and the earth, and the wind whizzed through the forest, like the sinister smile of evil spirits.
Not far away, Baidi City was quiet, unaware of the coming bloody nightmare.
Han Ya watched 3,000 Beidi soldiers heading towards Baidi City. He said slowly, "I was once puzzled, why the late emperor was so cowardly, ignoring his face, and endured again and again, gave way again and again, retreated again and again. back, later I understood..."
"Because they haven't lost their loved ones, and haven't tasted the bitter fruit of parting."
"They hid in high halls and temples, and hid behind the city walls of gold and jade. They have no shame in talking about the policy of marriage, and dare to ask, send her to live in peace, and don't know where to use the generals?"
"They think that as long as they get married, they can sit safely on the golden chair and continue to dream of their own emperor's dream. They have nothing to do with each other, and the one crying in the dusty sky is just an unknown princess who will be mentioned in the history books." Han Ya said slowly, he obviously spoke calmly, but his words were chilling chestnut.
"And I just want to let them know that they are only cowardly, and sooner or later, the flames of war will burn to their feet."
Shen Chao sighed deeply.
That's why Han Ya was cruel to Ashinabal and Li Qiushui.
Once they die, Beidi will definitely send troops to the Central Plains.
And in order to completely force the current emperor to have no way out and nothing to do, Han Ya also planned to borrow a knife to kill people and bloody Baidi City.
Once the hatred is provoked, the war between Beidi and the Central Plains will be overwhelmed, and it is a done deal.
But in Baidi City, should the bones be like a mountain and forget the surname, should blood flow everywhere
Shen Chao also cast his eyes on the army of Beidi soldiers holding torches in the distance, and said: "Master Han, today I and you will no longer talk about righteousness or family and country. You are kind to me, but I betrayed you. In the final analysis, I am just a petty person to the saint, so I have no right to judge your actions."
Shen Chao said, and suddenly sighed softly: "I fought in the battlefield when I was young, I didn't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, and I regarded death as my home. Now I live and live in a corner. Looking back on the past, the greatest luck is that I have raised two clever sons. Ordinary people in the world also hope that their homes will be safe and that they will have no worries about food and clothing."
"These people, just because they miss this peace, should they be sacrificed?"
Han Ya was speechless for a long time, and it took a long time before he said: "Master Shen, don't talk too much, it's a foregone conclusion now."
Shen Chao said slowly.
"Oh, is it?"
Han Ya was slightly taken aback. He glanced at Shen Chao and said, "Even if you have informed Qin Jueming, it will take half an hour for him to lead the troops to Baidi City. In this half hour, Beidi soldiers have already occupied Baidi City." Imperial City."
Shen Chao looked at the torch in the distance and said.
"Master Han, can they really occupy Baidi City in half an hour?"
-
At this time, three thousand soldiers from Beidi marched to Baidi City.
While walking on the mountain road, the leading soldiers of Beidi suddenly saw something and made a gesture to stop the soldiers behind them.
On the stone path of the mountain steps, there is a person standing.
He stood there quietly, holding a long sword, blocking the way, staring at the heavy-backed and armored Beidi soldiers.
"Where did you come from? Get out of here!" A Beidi soldier leader shouted loudly.
Shen Qionglin looked at those Beidi soldiers and took a deep breath.
Although he was uneasy, but now he can't take half a step back.
Shen Qionglin clenched the long sword in his hand, took out a pill from his bosom, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it whole.
And that Beidi soldier finally got impatient, he yelled angrily, rushed towards Shen Qionglin, and slashed at Shen Qionglin with his knife.
Shen Qionglin quickly raised his sword to resist.
The battle of swords and swords resounded through the night sky.
At the same time, many people rushed out of the woods on both sides of the mountain road! ! !
They were dressed in linen clothes, but they looked like ordinary people. Some of them even held simple agricultural tools such as hoes and shovels.
But in their mouths, they all shouted a word.
"Don't let these Beidi people pass! Don't let them go to Baidi City!!!"
But in an instant, there was already chaos there, and the shouts of fighting soon spread to Linyuan's attic.
Seeing Beidi's troops suddenly disrupted by the rushing crowd, Han Ya was stunned at first, but restrained himself from calming down, he said disdainfully: "As far as I know, the officers, soldiers and guards in Baidi City, together But a hundred people."
Shen Chao said: "There are not only officers and soldiers, but most of them are ordinary people. Some of them are knights in the bodyguard bureau, some are mansion guards, and some are merchants and peddlers."
"How many are there?" Han Ya asked.
"More than two thousand people." Shen Chao replied, "I only called for seven days."
Han Ya sneered disdainfully: "It's really courageous to dare to block the way with only two thousand ants. Don't forget, Mr. Shen, they are facing the elite soldiers of Beidi without training, not to mention the strong and strong people of Beidi. With these people, can we stop three thousand Beidi soldiers?"
Shen Chao said: "They can't stop them."
Han Ya sneered.
Shen Chao suddenly changed the topic: "However, I don't know if Prince Han has heard of a medicine called Suili Wan."
Han Ya was taken aback.
He had heard of this medicine, and he heard that people who swallowed it would become infinitely stronger, one against ten, but after taking it, the muscles and bones would also be disordered, and it would take several months to recover.
Han Ya suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Did you force these people to take medicine?"
"Forcing?" Shen Chao slowly shook his head, "Prince Han, the princess's absence for many years has made you hard-hearted, can't you even understand such a behavior?"
"Master Han, they all took the medicine voluntarily."
"Because in the peaceful and quiet Baidi City, there are relatives they want to protect even if they spill blood on the grass and trees! They may not understand righteousness, but they know what home is! The sun and the moon are shining, everyone in this world has something to protect." People who want to protect things!"
"Prince Han, isn't it also because of the princess that you have come to this point?"
-
That night, on the mountainside of Tianque Mountain Villa, hoarse shouts resounded through the sky, as far as the eye could see, it was full of flames, and the cold silver light and blood of swords and swords melted into the eyes.
When the battle was miserable, there were broken limbs and arms everywhere, and there were screams and cries everywhere.
but.
None of the Beidi soldiers could leave Tianque Villa.
After Qin Jueming arrived with his troops, the stalemate quickly fell to one side.
The soldiers of Beidi were defeated and disarmed. After seeing the situation clearly, they chose not to struggle anymore.
Qin Jueming ordered his men to tie up the Beidi captives, and quickly healed the injured, trying to save everyone. Then he hurried to Tianque Mountain Villa with dozens of cronies and Yan Shu.
Compared with the tragedy on the mountainside, the top of the mountain seemed peaceful, but it was hundreds of meters away, but it seemed like two worlds.
Qin Jueming quickly found Shen Chao, accompanied by guards, luckily he was fine and not seriously injured.
Shen Chao saluted: "Lord Qin!"
Qin Jueming returned the gift, and had no time to greet Shen Chao, so he asked, "Where is Han Ya?"
Shen Chao shook his head: "During the chaos just now, Han Ya sent jackdaw assassins to restrain my bodyguards, and he didn't know where he went."
Qin Jueming frowned.
Han Ya escaped
But now that every road in Que Villa is guarded by heavy soldiers, he is already a turtle in a urn, and it is impossible to escape.
Finding him is only a matter of time.
"Master Shen, may I ask, do you know where Li Changtian is?" Yan Shu stepped forward and asked Shen Chao anxiously.
With a thump in his heart, Shen Chao looked at Yan Shu.
One of Yan Shu's arms was sprained, wrapped in a white cloth, and hung around his neck. The white cloth was soaked in blood, bright red and glaring, and it could be seen that it was bandaged hastily.
He must have argued with Qin Jueming before he could be here.
Thinking of Li Changtian who was lying in a pool of blood, Shen Chao suddenly didn't know how to speak to Yan Shu. He was embarrassed and hesitant, and it took him a long time before he said, "Master Yan... I don't know about this... sorry..."
Yan Shu was immediately distraught and anxious.
Suddenly, a guard rushed to report that Han Ya had been found!
A few people dared not delay, and hurried to that place.
What they didn't expect was that Han Ya didn't run away in a hurry.
Instead, he was in the hall of the attic where he lived.
When everyone arrived, Han Ya was dressed in a dignified court dress, sitting on a red sandalwood inlaid enamel chair, holding a cup of celadon tea, sipping it calmly.
Seeing everyone breaking in, Han Ya raised his head and said calmly, "I've been waiting for you all for a long time."
And in the hall, besides Han Ya, there was another person!
The man was sitting on the grand teacher's chair beside Han Ya, with a mahogany coffee table with bird and animal patterns in the middle.
Rather than sitting, the man seemed more curled up. He leaned shyly against the back of the chair with a look of bewilderment.
When Yan Shu saw the man, he suddenly took half a step forward, but was stopped by Qin Jueming, and then stopped suddenly.
And Shen Chao at the side was also stunned.
How did Li Changtian come back from the dead? !
Shen Chao looked at Li Changtian's chest, but there was no scar there.
Seeing Shen Chao's astonishment, Han Ya smiled and said, "I thought it was Lord Shen who was playing tricks, but now it seems that Lord Shen doesn't know what's going on. I wanted to find a subordinate. Unexpectedly, I ran into this little friend in his room. To be honest, when I met this little friend just now, I was also taken aback. Fortunately, I don’t believe in ghosts and gods. I thought about it and guessed the reason. One or two, but it's really strange, the princess also died because of this little friend, I don't know what kind of story is in it?"
"Yan... brother Yanshu..." Li Changtian also saw Yanshu in the crowd at this time.
He yelled aggrievedly, staggered up and wanted to walk towards Yan Shu.
However, the moment Li Changtian moved, a bloodstain suddenly appeared on his neck!
An imperceptibly thin silver thread was wrapped around Li Changtian's neck, and the other end of the silver thread was in Han Ya's hand!
Han Ya said lightly.
"Little friend, don't move around."
