Volume 10, Chapter 950
Tang Yin ignored the dissuasion of many generals and decided to follow Huangfu Xiutai to the Shenchi Camp. Jin Xuan also wanted to go with him.
Of course, even if you want to persuade them to surrender, you can't just go there. Early the next morning, the Feng army came out in full force and pushed straight towards the Shenchi camp opposite.
This time, almost all the Feng Kingdom's four armies, Pingyuan Army, Sanshui Army, Directly Affiliated Army, and Feiyu Army, were dispatched. The momentum was huge and the scene was magnificent. It really had the momentum of swallowing up the sky and the earth.
The 400,000-strong army formed a fighting formation in front of the Shenchi camp, fixed their trebuchets and crossbows, and assumed a posture ready for a strong attack.
Feeling that he was almost intimidated, Tang Yin, who changed into casual clothes and dressed up as a servant, went to the Shenchi camp with Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan.
There were only three of them in their party, riding horses and approaching the Shenchi camp at an unhurried pace. When they were still a hundred steps away from the Shenchi camp, they heard a burst of wind in front of them, followed by a series of snapping sounds on the ground.
Looking down again, the three men's horses had a whole row of arrows inserted in front of them. Each arrow did not penetrate halfway into the ground. It was obvious that the force of the arrows was great. This was equivalent to indicating to Tang Yin and the others that the opponent was going to shoot. Killing you is easy.
"Who is outside the camp? Are they coming to attack our camp?" Someone shouted loudly on the opposite wall.
"I am Huangfu Xiutai, I'm asking you people in charge to come out and talk to me!" Huangfu Xiutai urged his horse to take two steps forward, but the arrow did not cross the ground and shouted back towards the wall.
Hearing his name, the people in Shenchi opposite him were obviously surprised, and no one responded for a long time.
After a long while, the person who just called out said, "It turns out to be Huangfu... Elder Huangfu, I'm sorry, I wonder what the hell Elder Huangfu is doing here now?"
Huangfu Xiutai said coldly: "I won't talk to you anymore. I'll call your person in charge!"
"This... Elder Huangfu, wait a moment, let me go and report!"
The man on the wall quickly ran down. After two cups of tea, there were suddenly many people on the wall. The leader was the one who was loyal to Guang Han Ting and was the most loyal to Guang Han Ting. One of the trusted elders, Fang Zheng.
In fact, the 400,000-strong Feng army had already set up an offensive posture in front of the camp. How could Fang Zheng sit still inside the camp?
He was near the village wall. The reason why he took so long to show up was mainly to give Huangfu Xiutai a warning. In his heart, Huangfu Xiutai was a traitor to Shenchi. If he came here at this time, he knew without asking that he must be for Feng. People work as lobbyists.
When he climbed up to the wall of the village, Fang Zheng recognized Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan outside the camp at a glance. However, he still deliberately pretended to be confused. He held on to the corrugations of the wall, leaned out and looked outside, and asked: "Who's coming... …But Elder Huangfu?”
Seeing that the person standing on the wall of the village was Fang Zheng, Huangfu Xiutai frowned secretly. He didn't have much contact with Fang Zheng, and he didn't have any personal relationships. He just knew that he was someone Guang Hanting valued more, and he had a very close relationship with Guang Hanting.
If the person in charge of staying at the camp is Fang Zheng, then this matter will be difficult to handle. Huangfu Xiutai sighed secretly in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He raised his head and replied, "That's me! Elder Fang, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"
"As expected, it's Elder Huangfu, haha-" Fang Zheng laughed. After a while, he stopped laughing and said helplessly: "I'm not in a good situation. Elder Huangfu attracted so many troops to invade me. Shenchi, I can’t do anything better even if I think about it!”
Huangfu Xiutai's face straightened and he said: "Elder Fang should understand that these many wind armies were not caused by me. Everything was caused by the Holy King."
After a moment of pause, he asked again: "Does the Fang Elder always want to talk to me like this? Don't you dare to invite me to the camp for a chat?"
Hearing what he said, Fang Zheng was really hesitant. He knew the spirit of Huangfu Xiutai very well. In the Shenchi, besides the Holy King, Huangfu Xiutai was definitely one of the best. Letting him enter the camp would probably attract wolves into the house!
While he was hesitating, an elder beside him whispered: "Elder Fang, wouldn't it be a good thing to let Huangfu in?"
"How to say?"
"What the Holy King hates the most is Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan. Today, they took the initiative to come to the door. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If they can be captured, it will be a great achievement in front of the Holy King. A great achievement.”
Fang Zheng's brows knitted into knots and he whispered, "You don't know about Huangfu's martial arts. What if you can't catch him and are overpowered by him instead?"
The elder said disapprovingly: "With so many of us, so many elders, are we still afraid that we can't deal with Huangfu and Jin Xuan? Elder Fang is too worried."
Fang Zheng rolled his eyes, nodded secretly, then took a deep breath and said, "Okay! It's up to you!" As he spoke, he said to the left and right, "Open the village gate and let Huangfu enter the camp!"
He gave the order, and the gate of the camp was slowly opened. Fang Zheng smiled at the Huangfu Show Stage outside the village wall: "Elder Huangfu, I was rude just now. Don't be offended. Elder Huangfu and Elder Jin please come in." Camp talk!”
Looking at the open gate of the camp ahead, Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan looked at each other, then both urged their horses to move forward. Tang Yin, who was following behind, lowered his head and reminded in a low voice: "Elder Huangfu and Elder Jin should be careful, Fang Zheng has no good intentions."
From such a long distance, Tang Yin couldn't hear clearly what they said on the wall, but he could make a rough guess based on their expressions.
Huangfu Xiutai, who was walking in front, said calmly: "Your Highness, don't worry, Fang Zheng is a cautious person. If he is not completely sure, he will not dare to fall out with me."
The three men urged their horses to move forward slowly, getting closer and closer to the village gate. They looked up and saw that the walls of the village were filled with the disciples of Shenchi. At this time, the people were holding spiritual bows of the same color and spiritual arrows from the tower, all with the same sharpness. Target the three of them.
Finally, we walked to the camp gate. As soon as we reined in our horses, we heard a burst of laughter from inside. Then, more than 20 Shenchi elders headed by Fang Zheng walked out of the camp. Seeing this, Tang Yin, Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan dismounted one after another.
"I thought that I would never be able to see the grace of Elder Huangfu and Elder Jin in this life, but I didn't expect that we would meet here. There is really no place in life where we don't meet!" Fang Zheng and other elders walked to Huangfu's show stage and Jin Xuan In front of the two of them, they raised their hands and bowed slightly to salute.
Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan returned the favor, and the former said with a smile: "What Elder Fang said is different. I only suffered persecution from Guang Hanting, and I escaped from the Shenchi because of no choice. How can I never come back!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Fang Zheng and others changed. Not to mention anything else, the mere fact that Huangfu directly addressed the Holy King by his first name was a crime of great disrespect.
Fang Zheng suppressed the anger in his heart and stared at Huangfu's catwalk with a smile for a moment. Then, he turned his eyes to Tang Yin, who was standing behind Huangfu's catwalk and Jin Xuan, and asked, "This is..."
Huangfu Xiutai said calmly: "He is my attendant!"
Fang Zheng sneered in his heart, but praised: "Elder Huangfu is really beyond our comparison!"
He didn't know Tang Yin, but he felt that the pressure on Tang Yin was very strong, and his cultivation seemed to be not inferior to his. The cultivation of any of his followers was not inferior to him, the elder of Shenchi. Fang Zheng thought that Huangfu's show was purely intentional. Show off in front of yourself.
"Elder Huangfu, please come to the camp!"
"Elder Fang, please!"
While talking, Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan were let into the camp by Fang Zheng and others. The camp area of Shenchi is not large, and it is not spacious inside. Compared with Feng Camp, which occupies a huge area and can't see the edge at a glance, it seems too small and homely.
After entering the camp, along the way, Tang Yin, Huangfu Xiutai, and Jin Xuan did not ignore the dense crowd of Shenchi disciples around them, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
At this time, Huangfu's extraordinary demeanor was revealed. The more dangerous the situation, the more calm he behaved. With his hands behind his back and a smile on his face, he walked forward slowly and confidently.
Not long after, a group of people entered the big tent. After the guests and hosts were seated, before Fang Zheng could speak, Huangfu Xiutai first asked: "Elder Fang, how many Shenchi disciples are there in the camp?"
I didn't expect him to ask such a straightforward question, and Fang Zheng was somewhat surprised. He looked at the elders on the left and right, then smiled slightly and said: "There are not many people, only twenty or thirty thousand..."
Before he could finish his words, Huangfu Xiutai laughed and shook his head: "Can such a small camp accommodate 20,000 to 30,000 people? Elder Fang is joking! Haha——"
Fang Zheng's face darkened slightly, he looked directly at Huangfu's show stage and asked, "What about Elder Yi Huangfu?"
"It's all calculated, only five thousand people at most." Huangfu Xiutai stopped his smile and asked: "Does Elder Fang know how many troops the Feng Army has outside the camp?"
Fang Zheng didn't answer, he just stared at him. Huangfu Xiutai slowly raised his hand. This action, which was completely harmless, caused the surrounding Shenchi people to raise their hands in unison and grasp the hilt of the sword.
He glanced around, smiled indifferently, raised his hand and stretched out four fingers, saying: "Four hundred thousand! There are 400,000 Feng troops outside the camp, five thousand versus 400,000. Elder Fang and other elders, do you think you can do it?" Any chance of winning?"
His words left everyone speechless. People looked at each other, and in the end no one answered, they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
If they had not fought against the Feng Army before, they would definitely say at this time that no matter how large the Feng Army's troops were, they would treat them like nothing. But now, they no longer have the courage to speak out so loudly.
Their spiritual martial arts are powerful, ten to a hundred times stronger than the Feng Army on the opposite side, but the disadvantage caused by the gap in numbers cannot be ignored.
