Chapter 2522 Western Expedition

After the battle ended, Xizhou City was covered in blood mist and devastated.

Although there were no shouts of killing, there were still crowds of people inside and outside the city wall.

It was the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were cleaning up the battlefield. Everywhere they went, there was a historian following them, recording the names of the heroes diligently. Their achievements would be recorded in the annals of history.

The night is not peaceful.

Looking at the sky, there are many horses neighing and dust flying.

Reinforcements arrived one after another and joined forces on the way.

What King Hanjiang said was absolutely true. He was destined to be unable to cross the mighty pass of Xizhou for the rest of his life. Only a single tiger mighty army could stop his 500,000-strong army. Now that the reinforcements from all directions in the Tang Dynasty have arrived, their strength has already been reduced. Without him, it would be as difficult to conquer this city as climbing to heaven.

Well!

In the City Lord's Mansion, Zhao Yun did not sleep peacefully, as if he was having a nightmare, his brows furrowed.

His face was still as pale as paper, and there was an extra strand of silver on his temples.

The Empress of the Tang Dynasty was a good doctor and was taking her pulse.

The Seven Sons in Yun Zhong were also there, as well as Li Zhaoyang, standing quietly by the bed, lost in thought.

It had only been a while since they met again, and the person she had been thinking about day and night was actually much older than before.

But he is obviously in his prime, are these strands of white hair an embellishment sent to him by God?

"It should be criticized for practicing magic skills indiscriminately."

The First Son in the Cloud pondered, the light in his eyes was uncertain.

The other six disciples did not refute, because they all could see that Zhao Yun's life was lost.

After a long time, the Empress of the Tang Dynasty stopped, but her pretty eyebrows were tightly locked.

"How about it." Yun Lan stepped forward immediately, and everyone looked at him, full of curiosity, wanting to know how many secrets this kid had hidden, such as his magic power.

"The foundation is greatly damaged." The queen took a deep breath.

"Do you know which magic power it is?" The second son asked.

"It's not magic power?" the queen said and glanced at Zhao Yun.

It wasn't until three or five moments later that she added the second half of the sentence, "It's demon blood."

"Demon blood?"

"

What flows in his body is demon blood. "

"this."

Everyone looked at each other in shock, only the Empress of the Tang Dynasty had beautiful eyes.

If the prediction is correct, there should be one person who exchanged blood with Zhao Zilong.

If this is true, then it makes sense that this boy's blood poison has been eliminated.

There are many strange poisons in the world, and the methods to treat them are also all kinds of strange.

Blood transfusion is one of them, but this method has been lost.

"Which expert helped you change the blood?" the queen asked in her heart.

Compared with this, she was more curious about who the demon blood in Zhao Zilong's body belonged to.

You must know that exchanging blood is tantamount to exchanging lives. It is difficult for even a close relative to be so generous!

She thought of the masked woman.

That man was a practitioner of Jiuyou Xuan Gong, and she was the one who kidnapped Zhao Zilong.

If they were truly husband and wife, it would be entirely possible for them to exchange one life for another.

"Where did he get the demon blood?"

"Is it innate? It can't be!"

While everyone was muttering, Zhao Yun slowly opened his eyes, his eyes rather distracted.

The battle in Xizhou greatly damaged the foundation, and it was so weak that it could not use even half of its strength.

Fortunately, he has a strong foundation. If he rests for a few more days, he will probably be active again.

"Who can cure your blood poison?"

The queen whispered and asked the answer that everyone wanted to know.

Zhao Yun smiled tiredly, then stood up and said, "An expert."

Xiao Yuxian understood the problem and changed the question, "But the masked woman took you there."

This time, Zhao Yun did not answer, his silence was his acquiescence.

The queen didn't ask any more questions, and there was no need to ask anymore, the answer was already clear.

"Senior, the devil in my body

Blood? "Zhao Yun asked tentatively.

"Blood poison mutation." The mother of the Tang Dynasty lied, her face was not red and she was out of breath.

Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and most of Yunzhong Qizi and others also had the same expression.

The world is so big and full of wonders. Is it so magical that blood poison mutates into demon blood?

Miraculous or not, they all believed it, just because the queen said it.

Therefore, this fellow named Zhao does not take the ordinary path and only picks out those who go against the will of heaven.

"The advent of what love is." ??

The queen left, muttering to herself as she left.

The origin of the demonic blood was sealed as a secret by her.

If the masked woman was still here, she probably wouldn't want to see him heartbroken.

Trading life for life, what kind of love is it that can make her forget about death.

"gone."

The Seven Sons in Yun Zhong also realized what was going on and followed the Queen's footsteps one after another.

The one who didn't leave was the Princess of Tang Dynasty, who stayed beside his bed like a maid.

As a prodigy in martial arts, Zhao Yunzhi's resilience is indeed incredible.

Within three or five days, I saw him going out, full of energy and glory.

Compared to him, Marshal Huwei was not so lucky. He narrowly escaped death by holding on to the city gate and became a useless man. Not to mention going into battle to kill the enemy, even standing firm became a luxury.

night.

The main hall of the City Lord's Mansion was full of people.

The queen is there, the princess is there, and the marshals of the various armies are also there.

The atmosphere was depressing and solemn. Although Xizhou City was defended, the price was heavy. What a powerful army of a hundred thousand tigers! Less than 3,000 soldiers fought, and more than 90,000 soldiers were buried under Xizhou City.

"Fight back." Marshal Canglong said coldly.

"Choose a commander for the Western Expedition!" Marshal Yan Ling said.

As soon as these words came out, all the generals present looked at Zhao Yun collectively.

It is best for the marshal of the Western Expedition to be one who is powerful in the world.

r>

Only in this way can morale be boosted to the greatest extent.

What a coincidence, there is such a person in the palace.

That is Zhao Zilong. He is the leader of the contemporary martial arts alliance and the commander of the Xuanjia Army. He is also the civil and military champion appointed by the Tang Dynasty. When the rebellion of King Yang was put down, this boy played an indispensable role. Not to mention other things, he just killed several enemy troops. Generalissimo, can ordinary people do it?

"I can't." Looking uncomfortable, Zhao Yun hurriedly waved his hand.

"Man, how can you say no?" Yunzhong's third son said while wiping his sword.

He rarely admired people in his life, but he was absolutely convinced by someone. Just one person almost wiped out the whole army of Tian Jue Seven Evils. Looking at the martial arts world, who could be so pissed off!

"It really doesn't work."

"You have to do it."

"Stop refusing."

The Empress of the Tang Dynasty spoke. Not only did she speak, she also issued an imperial edict.

That's right, she came with the emperor's order: Zhao Zilong will be the marshal in the Western Expedition.

This works so well, Zhao Yun dares not to accept it? After accepting it, he became the supreme commander of the Western Expeditionary Army.

Buzz!

That night, the city gate opened wide, and a wave of people poured out of Xizhou.

The Western Expeditionary Army assembled, numbering half a million, and formed a square formation outside the city.

It was indeed a wise move to choose Zhao Yun as the commander-in-chief. Looking at the eyes of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, they were as bright as torches, especially the heroes of the mighty army. Their eyes were hot, and at the same time, there was a flash of shock, which was hatred. , but also endless fighting spirit.

Whoosh!

Zhao Yun had already jumped on the war horse and tied the Tang Dynasty's war flag to his horse's back.

There is no special meaning, just one sentence: Wherever the battle flag of the Tang Dynasty is, the Western Expedition Army will fight.

war!

Before the army even set out, they heard a roar that shook the heaven and earth.

The Hanjiang King has had enough trouble, it's time for them to show off their power.

The prelude to the pacification of the Western Region will be completely kicked off on this night.
