The great hero, from nine to five

The Sisu Sect's offensive became more and more fierce.

In the next few days, the believers of the Sisu Sect pushed forward frantically, even driving Man Jianghong's team to the border area at one point, and it was only after Man Jianghong reorganized that he barely pushed back.

"Hahaha--"

Following their attack, the retreat and defense of the Central Plains, under the guidance of the guards, these Sisu believers also began to go crazy, often yelling at the Central Plains people, shouting, clamoring, and saying some obscenities.

Although Sheng Jin's army was elite, they were not clay figurines. They were ridiculed so much, and their anger naturally became more and more intense. Moreover, their repeated concessions had already made them suffocate, as if they were about to explode at any time.

"General, it's not an option for us to retreat and retreat now—the brothers are holding their breath in their hearts. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be problems?"

One of Man Jianghong's guards said worriedly.

Man Jianghong stood in front of the sand table in the temporary camp, looked at the things on the map, her face remained unchanged, and said, "Of course I know, brothers want to go and fight, but at this time, there is no rush."

"But General—"

Man Jianghong pointed to the map on the table, drew a circle, pointed to a few things on it, and said to him, "Do you know about the Dragon Token?"

The lieutenant immediately clasped his fists and nodded, saying, "Of course I know. This is what Xun Shoubei created to unify the people in the Jianghu. I have also heard about it."

"The Second Highness is here to personally grant the Dragon Token."

The deputy general was taken aback for a moment, looked at the marks on the map, and exclaimed: "Ah!?

why! ? "

"Do not--

No, no, absolutely not! "

There is a very obvious place on the map. There is a small river near the river bank. There is no defense on the road. It is still far away from Shijian City. It should not be too dangerous, but now the followers of the Demon Cult are pushing forward frantically, and they are already quite close to them. The position is up.

"This is the place where the left coach died in battle."

The deputy general looked down and nodded quickly.

He said that this place looked familiar: "But what's the matter? This has nothing to do with the Second Highness, right?"

Man Jianghong's face was calm, without any obvious emotional changes on his ordinary face, and he replied: "That's right. This place itself has nothing to do with the Second Highness.

Can--

A few days later, Xun Wu will summon all the disciples of the Duoji Sect here to completely succeed him as the head of the Duoji Sect. At the same time, he will swear on the place where the Zuo Jiaotou died in battle to avenge the Zuo Jiaotou. "

"This..."

There is nothing to say.

Xun Wu himself is also a master, and most of the disciples of the extreme sect also have second-rate or third-rate strength. If this kind of meeting is to be held, there must be countless masters present, even if some patrolling Sisu sect members are not there. no big deal.

As the saying goes, the dead are the greatest. In Sheng Jin, he, the guard, had nothing to blame Xun Wu for this kind of thing.

"But this has nothing to do with the Second Highness—"

"Yeah... that's how it should be.

But, you should know that there is a rift between the Second Highness and Xun Wu, and the two even quarreled in front of countless Jiang Hu people.

Now, Xun Wu is succeeding as the head of the Opposite Gate, and for some unknown purpose, the Second Highness wants to hold a Dragon Token Awarding Conference near the same place... At that time, the Jiang Hu people who should have participated in the succession conference, Naturally, I will go to see the unique Dragon Token Conference—"

"what!?"

"This is this-"

"The Second Highness is stupid!?"

"Cough cough—old three, what nonsense are you talking about?" On the side, another lieutenant general who had been looking at the map hastily said, "Is this something that can be said?"

"What can't be said!" The deputy general known as the third child directly slapped the table, angrily, "We are bleeding for Sheng Jin, and we are the iron-blooded army praised and certified by His Majesty. Don't say that we are here. I dare to scold that guy standing in front of me!

What's more, in front of the general, he might not dare to fight back! "

"Ahem..." Man Jianghong coughed twice.

Man Jianghong himself has made great military exploits. He fought for the imperial court against alien races and demon sects. He was even injured due to the war, and his personal strength was reduced by three points. Therefore, in terms of personal combat power, he lost to the other three famous arresters. It is a heroic existence.

Moreover, Man Jianghong is still the confidant of Emperor Shengwu, the number one confidant of Emperor Shengwu certified by the court, but he basically does all the important work. It was not until the last two years that he found Xun Wu who could inherit his work. It can be described as hard work.

At the same time, he is also Yue Jiye's adopted son and the deceased prince's adopted brother. In truth, at least for now, the second prince's "status" in Emperor Shengwu's heart is definitely not as high as that of Man Jianghong.

But having said that, Man Jianghong is not an imperial family after all, so it's okay to think about it in his heart, he is not the type like Bao Huaiying and Xun Wu who would really point at the prince and the emperor, so he dare not speak nonsense.

"All in all, because of the recent problems, we can't have any accidents..." Man Jianghong interrupted his speech, and continued, "After a few days, after the end of the Second Highness's grant...or, after the Second Highness When we are ready to convene, we will start to fight back."

"Humph..."

"we can only do this."

Man Jianghong shook her head, and suddenly heard loud shouts from outside, accompanied by some very strange and unpleasant-sounding "Chinese words", obviously, it was the members of the Devil's Cult who started yelling and cursing again.

Because of Sheng Jin's withdrawal during this period, they became more and more arrogant. The defenders of Sisujiao, who were a little shy before and didn't dare to fight Sheng Jin head-on, became more and more confident, and often opened their voices loudly. Sheng Jin's joke.

Man Jianghong narrowed her eyes slowly, her expression still not showing.

As the head of the four famous arresters, Man Jianghong is a very ordinary guy, even a "passerby" guy, unlike other people with different characteristics.

Even Xun Wu, after meeting him for the first time, forgot what he looked like, and didn't think of him until the second time. It can be said that even in this era when the population has not yet exploded, he can be found among the crowd , a person with a very ordinary appearance can't be the "protagonist" at all.

but...

The ordinary appearance does not mean that he is really ordinary.

He has a good temper and he is very patient, but that doesn't mean he won't be "impulsive".

Listening to the voices outside, he gradually began to calculate and calculate.

Before, he had learned from the spies that those members of the Demon Cult would experience great collapse after fighting, and might even die suddenly. Even if there was no fighting, they seemed to be consuming something every day.

He judged that this must be the "price" for the explosion of the power of those demon cult believers. Even if this kind of power can stimulate the power of the human body, it is impossible to maintain it continuously, and it seems to be something related to internal energy.

Then, as he expected, after about three days, these forces will "dissipate" or "finally arouse".

This may be the strongest time for this group of devil believers, because their personal combat power will be stimulated to the strongest - but this is also their weakest time!

At this time, they may die suddenly anytime, anywhere!

This is their perfect opportunity to attack!

And at this time...

Xun Wu's plan can be advanced accordingly.

Because of the chaotic frontal battle, it is the time when scattered warriors and people from the rivers and lakes are not affected by the "bad energy array".

For him, forbearance is always temporary, and he has never flinched in his heart. He must let these Shengjin traitors and these strange aliens know.

Shengjin is the most vengeful country in the world!

Sheng Jin must smash the faces of these people and knock out their heads!

"Start preparations now, three days later, we will cover His Highness."

"...Yes!"

Although still very upset, the two lieutenants responded immediately and unswervingly carried out Man Jianghong's order.

At the same time, within Osumi, there were rumors everywhere.

Xun Wu stood by the window of a small building, looking down silently, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Downstairs, countless people from the rivers and lakes were discussing the Second Prince's "Dragon Token" to be held outside. Some people thought that the Second Prince was messing around, and some people thought that the Second Prince's actions were bloody, but none One person suspects that there is something wrong with the second prince's motives.

Because in their view, the conflict between the second prince and Xun Wu was on the surface, and the second prince would feel disgusted sooner or later, but they didn't expect it to be at this time.

"Xun Shou arrested, but are you surprised?" Beside him, a middle-aged scholar asked while stroking his beard with a smile.

Xun Wu stopped looking into the distance, looked back at the scholar, and responded, "That's right, I'm really moved."

"Hehehe——" the scribe stroked his beard again, and said bluntly, "Your Highness is definitely not weak, and he knows his mistakes and can correct them. He is quite benevolent.

Even if he put himself in danger, even if he got some stigma for a short time because of it, he said it was no big deal.Xun Shou was arrested, so why worry, why should he feel emotion? "

The person who said this is the strategist of the second prince, Liu Dong, who was born in the Liu family, but for his own ideals and ideas, he abandoned the magical skills of the Liu family, concentrated on learning, and his knowledge was no less than that of the former "Prince Shaofu" Jiang Yun.

Originally, when he came to Yingzhou, he was still a little worried. He felt that the second prince was too focused on grasping power, that he would suffer a little less, and maybe something would happen.Unexpectedly, after confronting Xun Wu head-on, the second prince seemed to have opened his mind, and began to delegate power, and even began to trust capable people like Xun Wu.

This made him very satisfied, and later he worked with Xun Wu to design the "Zodiac Token". Today is the time for him and Xun Wu to make preparations for the handover.

He admired Xun Wu very much. He saw Xun Wu's "New Year's Event" and "Limited Token" before, but he was shocked. He immediately regarded Xun Wu as a confidant in his heart. Another thought came to his mind, and he said immediately: "Xun Shou, His Highness has the appearance of a sage, benevolent and righteous, and his knowledge and ability are not bad, especially after introspection, it is especially prominent. When talking about this, I thought it must be Xun Shou's plan to arrest you.

Because he knew that the arrester never had the intention of using the lives of the royal family as bait. "

The second prince did understand right away.

In the case of not being dizzy, the second prince is still full of wisdom. The year before, in the gold robbery, except for Man Jianghong, none of the four famous arresters found the gold hidden in the bronze statue of Emperor Shengwu. Only Xun Wu, the first time After realizing this, it is impossible for Zhao Wumian to come up with such a similar strategy.

Zhao Wumian is smart, but his position determines that he will not think about or devise such a strategy.

"Your Highness said, you must be concerned about his face, that's why you asked Zhao Butou to say that this plan was designed by him, and he was worried that he would still have grudges—

He said, please don't worry, he will never take revenge on a meritorious person. "

After finishing speaking, Liu Dong bowed to Xun Wu twice, and then said: "He also asked Xun Shou to arrest you to forget the unhappiness in the past, and work hard for me to prosper and advance the world together in the future."

Xun Wu raised his eyebrows, quite surprised.

He really didn't feel that the second prince had changed so much last time, did he?

But it has to be said that Liu Dong is indeed good at dealing with people, and his words are sincere, and Xun Wu's inspection did not find any lies.

At least in Liu Dong's heart, what he said was what he thought.

"Mr. Liu has said it. Xun will not do anything out of the ordinary, and will only fulfill Xun's own duties.

As for the rest...Xun Mou doesn't care. "

Liu Dong expected that Xun Wu would definitely say such things. Xun Wu was originally this type of person. He only had duties and obligations in his eyes, and he was more terrifying than an organ person.

"Hehe, don't worry about it—" Liu Dong said first, and then added, "By the way, I don't know if Xun Shou is interested in arresting..."

"No." Xun Wu interrupted his speech before he could finish speaking.

At the beginning, Xun Wu knew that he wanted to win him over as soon as he heard it.

But Xun Wu himself is not interested in "factions", and he is not interested in knowing who will be the emperor in Sheng Jin in the future. As long as there is no big news, he doesn't want to care about these things.

Liu Dong coughed twice, knowing that there was nothing to talk about, so he said goodbye to Xun Wu.

Only Xun Wu was still a bit puzzled, wondering if the second prince could accept so well?Even Emperor Shengwu seemed to have slowed down for a while back then?

but...

It doesn't matter, anyway, if the strategy can continue to run normally, then this matter will be fine.

Another day.

Shi Jian.

In the Shijian courtyard, Xuanwu Xingjun looked at the table and collected a lot of information, silently analyzing the pros and cons, right and wrong.

He had read the news about the second prince before, and felt that it must be a trap, but he noticed that Xun Wu was going to hold a succession meeting, and there was a display of Opposite's arms, which immediately made him feel itchy.

However, even though his heart was moved, he would not act rashly. He had to determine the situation first before making a decision.

Xun Wu intends to succeed Zuo Yanhan in the place where Zuo Yanhan died. This is his loyalty, and this matter is obviously credible; the second prince risked danger, just to fight against Xun Wu, and held a "Dragon Token" in such a place The conference sounds stupid, and it doesn't seem like something the royal family of the Ye family can do.

How much the Ye family cherished their lives, how could they take such a big risk?

But he once had contact with the fourth prince, and even tricked the fourth prince into sacrificing the people of a city, so he felt that this kind of thing could not happen...

Sheng Jinjun has been suppressed and beaten by the congregation during this period, and has been repulsed several times...

He thought about this matter carefully, and finally made a decision under the report provided by the ninjas.

Regardless of whether this is a trap or not, as long as the congregation resists and suppresses the Sheng Jin army on that day, and prevents the army from coming to block him, then he will have a chance to take away the "Red Flame Arm" on the spot. The red fire arm suppresses the cold poison in his body, and he can display [-]% of his combat power.

At that time, whether it is to retreat or fight, he will have full confidence!

His eyes were shining brightly.

and so!

go!
