Text Chapter 1927 How Could This Happen?

It’s a blessing, not a curse, but it’s a curse that cannot be avoided.

What was supposed to come finally came, and the spies sent to explore the road seemed to have no effect.

Just when there were still two star gates left to leave the territory of the Eastern Army, a dozen scouts who were exploring the path first broke into the star gate. The news sent back indicated that it was passable, but a group of people could be spit out from the void through the star gate. At that moment, a sudden change occurred.

Not long after flying, Linghu Douzhong suddenly raised his hand, and a group of people quickly stopped and looked around.

I saw many stars and stones floating in the sky exploding, and a large number of people and horses appeared around them, quickly gathering around them.

This group of soldiers and horses all wore the same heavenly standard battle armor, without even a disguise to change their appearance, and their actions against this side were completely unscrupulous.

After a brief inspection, Miao Yi and others estimated that the opponent's number of men and horses was one million.

Linghu Douzhong's entourage immediately stepped aside to protect Miao Yi and others, including Linghu Douzhong, and were vigilant in all directions.

"They are from Guang Linggong of the Western Army." Linghu Douzhong stared at the general led by the other party, "The general is Huang Hao's confidant general Yan Xiao. Many masters have come and so many troops have been dispatched. It seems that King Guangtian values ​​​​the great governor very much!”

Miao Yi tilted his head and smiled faintly at him, "It's certainly not worth mentioning against Marshal Linghu."

Linghu Douzhong smiled bitterly. Seeing that the front row of the gathered troops were surrounded by a large number of spell-breaking bows, he nodded slightly to a general.

The general waved his hand, and more than ten people appeared. Those who appeared took orders and quickly transformed into thousands and thousands. In the blink of an eye, millions of troops appeared in formation, protecting Miao Yi and others like a core. The archers Step forward to defend the perimeter.

The Wulu general Yan Xiao who was surrounding him was stunned, and the left and right lieutenants also looked at each other, obviously not expecting that there were so many people accompanying Miao Yi.

The deputy general on the side recognized some of the generals among the besieged troops and immediately reminded Yan Xiao: "General, no, they are Linghu Douzhong's troops. Linghu Douzhong led a group of troops away. Their whereabouts are unknown, and they turned up unexpectedly. Therefore, among the disguised people around Niu Youde, there might be Linghu Douzhong."

They did not recognize who Linghu Douzhong was after the disguise, but they saw someone beside Linghu Douzhong raising a small flag and issuing an order to set up the formation. Yan Xiao and other generals reacted and quickly turned around to look around.

I saw that the dozen or so people who first rushed out of the star gate to explore the way had returned. Although they were isolated outside the encirclement, they suddenly increased their flying speed. Unlike the flying speed seen here before, this flying speed was obviously that of an expert. If they have it, more than a dozen people quickly surround them. After positioning and distributing in a large area, they all raise their hands to release people. Tens of thousands, thousands of thousands of people appear densely, and the general quickly orders his troops to form an array.

In an instant, tens of millions of troops appeared behind them and surrounded them. A large number of spell-breaking bows came forward under the command of the war general and aimed at them.

The current situation is that it is not easy to be surrounded by millions of people and want to gnaw them down. Behind them are surrounded by elite troops ten times your own size. They are completely trapped in a situation of attack from both inside and outside, and they can easily put this side to death.

Yan Xiao's Adam's apple twitched and he felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat. The expressions of the generals around him also changed. They didn't expect this situation. They all saw that the opponent was Linghu Douzhong's elite army, both in terms of strength and number of experts. , or the number of broken spell bows gathered here are far beyond what can be compared here, and they are also in such an adverse situation. There is no way to fight this battle. If they dare to make a move, it will immediately be a massacre.

The men and horses caught in the middle were obviously in a panic. As long as they were not stupid, they all knew that they were in a certain death situation. They all looked nervous or panicked, and looked around with uneasiness. The morale of the soldiers was completely messed up.

"Don't move below." Yan Xiao saw that the soldiers' morale was at a loss, and he was afraid that something might happen. If someone loosened his hand and shot an arrow, a war would immediately ignite, so he quickly warned.

"I'm afraid no one dares to move at this time." The deputy general sighed. If he moved, he was seeking death. However, he still gave the order.

Another general said in a deep voice: "General, didn't the commander say that Niu Youde doesn't have many people around him? Doesn't this mean there are not many people around him? Isn't this a trick on us? How could Linghu Douchong's army appear? The commander's What’s going on with the intelligence?”

What they don't know here is that the men and horses currently showing up are only one-fifth of Linghu Dou's weight.

"Does it make sense to say this now?" Seeing that the other party was not in a hurry to take action, Yan Xiao scolded and quickly took out the star bell and directly contacted Wulu Marshal Huang Hao. Whether it was to ask for instructions or to give an explanation, it must be I want to ask what is going on above.

Linghu Douzhong's men did not take action. Miao Yi, who was waiting for a moment, turned his head and looked at Linghu Douzhong, with an obviously unhappy expression on his face. He said with a hint of indifference: "Is it possible that Commander Linghu and Yan Xiao have something to do with each other?" Old friendship?"

Linghu Douzhong understood that he was urging action and asked, "Does the Grand Governor really want to wipe out these people?"

Miao Yi said: "Catch those alive if you can, and keep them as hostages. If you can't catch them, kill them. Let's do it!"

Linghu Douzhong hesitated and said, "Can the Grand Governor listen to me?"

Miao Yi felt a little angry in his heart, but the soldiers and horses in front of him were obeying Linghu Douzhong's orders and were not pinched in his hands. It was useless for him to get angry. If he was pushed too hard, it might be counterproductive. He had to be patient and asked calmly: " I’d love to hear your advice!”

Linghu Douzhong asked, "Grand Governor, it's easy to kill these people, but have you ever thought about the consequences of doing so?"

Miao Yi: "Are you worried that your identities will be exposed and you will not be able to pass through the Southern Army smoothly?"

Linghu Douzhong: "That's right! The Netherworld is adjacent to the Southern Army. If you want to enter the Netherworld, you must pass through the Southern Army's territory. Once Guanglinggong's men are killed here, Guanglinggong will inevitably fight with Haode. Fang Tongqi, once Guang Linggong takes the opportunity to instigate, it will not be a question of whether we can pass, but a question of whether the Fourth Army will tolerate the existence of another force. Please think twice. "

Miao Yi: "I'm worried too much, so I will try my best to capture them alive as hostages."

Linghu Douzhong said: "Once a fight breaks out, the other side will lose at least half of it. Guang Linggong cannot afford to lose face and will not be threatened by this."

Miao Yi: "I will notify the nearest Guardsmen to come and testify. These people were the first to harm me."

Linghu Douzhong shook his head and said: "The Governor thinks it's simple. I know those old guys too well. It's useless for the Governor to do this. There are some principles for people who have reached the level of Guang Linggong. If you can't explain it clearly, you're making people anxious. They don't need to be reasonable if they have military power. Big fists are just the right thing. Even His Majesty has to turn a blind eye and it won't matter if the Guards are coming. The other party insists. When I passed by, I was besieged by the Governor. What should I do if I had to beat him up or take the opportunity to kill him? "

Miao Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "How can he deny it like this? Doesn't the commander-in-chief know about the Black Dragon Pond?"

Linghu Douzhong smiled bitterly and said: "Grand Governor, this is different from the situation in Black Dragon Pond. It is very different. Black Dragon Pond is where Ying Tian... Ying Jiuguang's men and horses were blocked inside, and the Ying family and horses were released outside pretending to be bandits. However, the Ying family did not admit the news, nor did they admit that there was any conflict between their own troops and the Grand Governor. The consequence of this was that once the Guards arrived and found the Ying family's horses inside, the Ying family would not be able to explain it. , I can only hold my nose and admit it, but in front of me... Commander, please look at it!" He pointed to the people surrounding him outside, "He just came to the Commander unscrupulously, without any pretense, something happened to him. Don't be afraid. When the time comes, Teng and Cheng will cooperate to testify and prove that the Guang family horses did pass through here. Even if everyone knows what is going on, everyone in the court will definitely accuse the governor of being unreasonable. Before the conclusion is drawn in the hall, the Grand Governor will have no chance to defend himself. They insist that the Grand Governor did the evil first and insist on taking us down. The few guards and horses nearby cannot stop their army from attacking us! "

Miao Yi frowned slightly and realized that he had indeed been trying to be simple and had underestimated the shamelessness of some people. He found that Linghu Douzhong did understand those people better than he did and what he said did make some sense. He felt a little calmer. He hesitated and said, "Is it possible to let them go like this?"

Linghu Douzhong waved his hand slightly, "Otherwise! If we let them go like this, they may not let us go. If the Fourth Army is determined not to tolerate my force, they will definitely attack again and won't let us go smoothly. Get out of their jurisdiction!"

Miao Yi pondered: "According to the commander-in-chief's words, how should we deal with it?"

Linghu Douzhong: "Surround without attacking, force surrender, and capture in one fell swoop! As long as no loss is caused to Duke Guangling, it will save Duke Guangling's face. Everyone knows some things well, and we can take them hostage in the meantime." This group of hostages returned to the Netherworld smoothly. As long as Guang Linggong didn't say anything beforehand, he wouldn't be able to say anything later! Once the governor takes action, Guang Linggong will have to save the face of the king. It's necessary. It is shameful to put the governor to death, but if he is forced to surrender, Guanglinggong will not be able to ignore the lives and lives of so many people. If word spreads, he will not care about the lives and lives of the people below. He has to take into account the thoughts of the people below, so please Grand Governor, think twice about being patient!”

Miao Yi suddenly understood, nodded slightly and said, "After listening to the commander's words, he suddenly realized that Niu was indeed reckless. Okay, just follow the commander's words!"

Linghu Douzhong was still worried that Miao Yi would be as tough as the rumors. Now that he saw that Miao Yi could do good things, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and thought to himself, it's not that difficult to deal with... Little did he know that the military power was still in his hands, otherwise Miao would Yi has already started working.

He was not only thinking about Miao Yi, but also thinking about his team.

Marshal's Mansion on Wu Road.

In a large hall, Huang Hao, who received the news, walked back and forth with his hands behind his hands. He was a little angry and said with a sullen face: "How could this happen? How could this happen? What is going on with the prince?" He turned around and said: "Tell me. They don’t have to be brave and break out with all their strength!”

Steward Li Jun maintained contact with the star bell in his hand. After hearing this, he replied: "Commander, Linghu Douzhong's troops are not attacking, they are just surrounding. Once they break through, an attack may occur, and our side will definitely suffer heavy casualties. I'm afraid Not many people can break through, but there are quite a few of our experts in this group of troops!" The implication is that this loss is not easy to bear.

"No attack?" Huang Hao was stunned, stroking his beautiful long beard as black as ink, frowning and saying suspiciously: "This doesn't seem like Niu Youde's style of exploding with one touch..."

Li Jun: “Let’s ask the King of Heaven to decide!”
