Chapter 28 Wendao Pavilion
Huang Shen ordered 8,000 cavalry to surround more than 20,000 surrendered people on both sides, and then rode alone to Xiao Yu.
At this time, Xiao Yu was still sensing Chen Mao's breath.
Seeing Xiao Yu frowning and observing things nearby, Huang Shen hesitated for a moment and did not interrupt.
After a while, Xiao Yushu frowned, looked at Huang Shen and asked, "How much does General Huang know about Chen Mao?"
Huang Shen pondered for a moment and looked at Xiao Yu and replied, "I have never dealt with Chen Mao, but as far as I know, Fu Mingshan is very important to Chen Mao. Among his generals, except for Fu Hai, Chen Mao has the most troops under Chen Mao's command. Fu Mingshan arranged Chen Mao in Honglin City probably to deal with the general's attack, but he was afraid he didn't expect that Chen Mao would abandon the city and escape.
"It's right for Chen Mao to give up Honglin City. He just didn't expect us to stop him."
Huang Shen nodded, glanced at the defenders of Honglin City who surrendered, and turned back to Xiao Yu and asked, "General, what should we do next?"
Xiao Yu stared at the west and pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I'll let Elder Tang stay and help you. You take these surrender soldiers and slowly walk towards Dongzhao City."
"Does the general want to take down Dongzhao City?"
"If we don't seize the time to take down Dongzhao City, by Chen Mao's means, if we want to fight Dongzhao City, it is likely to become an empty city."
After replying to Huang Shen's sentence, Xiao Yu made a whistling at the location of the blood tiger guard.
Hearing Xiao Yu's call, the blood tiger guards immediately left the motorcade and rushed to Xiao Yu's position.
"Elew, Elder Tang, please help General Huang watch these surrenders!"
"Yes!"
Unconsciously, Tang Yuansong also had a subconscious obedience to Xiao Yu's orders.
Xiao Yu nodded to Huang Shen and Tang Yuansong, and rushed to the west with a thousand blood tiger guards.
At the beginning, Xiao Yu took the blood tiger guard to run up and down the mountain in Hezui Mountain. The purpose was to exercise the strength of the blood tiger guard and their control over the body. Unexpectedly, he inadvertently cultivated an army that could march quickly in the mountainous and watery Yunshan County.
With Xiao Yu, a master exploring the way, the blood tiger guards basically do not need to pay attention to the poisonous insects and beasts in the mountains. In this way, climbing over the ordinary mountain is like walking flat ground to the blood tiger guards. The road to climb over the mountain in Yunshan County is generally much shorter than the road around the mountain.
The place where Xiao Yu stopped Chen Mao and his party was about 623 miles away from Dongzhao City, the county seat in front of him, and it took more than 100 miles to walk around the mountain.
Leading the Blood Tiger Guard, Xiao Yu came to the east gate of Dongzhao City in just one and a half hours.
After ordering the blood tiger guards to stop within the range of the crossbow car, Xiao Yu moved and jumped to the roof of the gate of the east gate of Dongzhao City.
Standing on the roof of the gate, Xiao Yu watched the situation in Dongzhao City.
When Xiao Yugang led the blood tiger guards to arrive in front of Dongzhao City, Dutong, who was in the gate tower, ordered his subordinates to be ready to attack.
However, after Xiao Yu jumped to the roof of the gate alone, he did not dare to order the soldiers to attack Xiao Yu standing on the roof of the gate.Just when the guards at the East Gate didn't know how to deal with Xiao Yu, an explosion sounded in Dongzhao City.
With the explosion, thick black smoke emerged from the largest military camp in Dongzhao City.
Seeing such a change, Xiao Yu sneered and turned into a faint white shadow and leaped to the place where the explosion occurred.
When Xiao Yu jumped to the place where the explosion occurred, Chen Mao stood still with a gloomy face, and he was surrounded by more than 200 defenders of Dongzhao City.
Seeing Xiao Yu suddenly appearing in front of him, a trace of unreachable fear flashed on Chen Mao's face.
Xiao Yu first glanced at the soldiers around Chen Mao, and then looked at Chen Mao and sneered, "You are really arrogant. You clearly guessed that you would come to Dongzhao City, and you dared to make trouble in Dongzhao City."
The corners of Chen Mao's eyes twitched a few times, and he stared at Xiao Yu coldly and said coldly, "Chen was not defeated by you, but by these disobedient dog slaves."
"No matter what, you are not only defeated, but also defeated."
Xiao Yu replied to Chen Mao coldly and stared at the middle-aged man surrounded by several soldiers not far away and asked in a low voice, "Are you the general of Dongzhao City?"
The middle-aged man looked at Chen Mao, hesitated for a moment, separated several soldiers who protected him, and said to Xiao Yu, "I have seen the general Ma Yuan, the guard of Xiadong Zhaocheng!"
Xiao Yu nodded, walked to Chen Mao first, slapped Chen Mao on the shoulder, and then stared at Ma Yuan's eyes and asked in a low voice, "Would you like to obey?"
Ma Yuan hesitated for a moment, looked at the granary that was still emitting black smoke, knelt on one knee and said in a low voice, "Ma Yuan is willing to submit to the general and ask the general to take him in!"
"I will receive your surrender!"
Reply to Ma Yuan, Xiao Yu grabbed Chen Mao's shoulder with one hand and said to Ma Yuan, "You send someone to guard the west gate first, and then come to the east gate."
As soon as Xiao Yu's words fell, he took Chen Mao and disappeared in front of Ma Yuan.
Ma Yuan stared at Xiao Yu's original position for a moment and sighed. While ordering someone to close the west gate, he took a pair of soldiers to the east gate.
After taking Chen Mao back to the East Gate, Xiao Yu used ecstasy to Chen Mao.
With Chen Mao's cultivation of returning to Yangjie, he could not resist Xiao Yu's ecstasy at all. However, after he was fascinated by Xiao Yu's ecstasy, he did not answer a word of Xiao Yu's question.
Staring at Chen Mao and frowning for a while, Xiao Yu did not kill Chen Mao directly.
After about a quarter and a half hours, Ma Yuan opened the east gate and greeted him.
Xiao Yu walked to Dongzhao City with the blood tiger guard and asked Ma Yuan, "Ma Yuan, what orders did Chen Mao give to you when he came to Dongzhao City before?"
Ma Yuan looked at Chen Mao, who was caught by Xiao Yu, and replied respectfully, "After he arrived in Dongzhao City, he ordered his subordinates to destroy all the granaries and pharmacies in the city, and then took the cavalry to leave Dongzhao City with him. His subordinates couldn't bear to destroy Dongzhao City, so they did not follow his orders to destroy the granary and pharmacy. Unexpectedly, he ran to the barracks and destroyed the largest granary in Dongzhao City. When his subordinates brought people to the barracks, he was already restrained.
Xiao Yu nodded, pondered for a while, and then asked Ma Yuan, "When did he come to Dongzhao City?"
"About half an hour ago!"
"Half an hour ago? With his cultivation of Yangjie, if he tried his best to get to Dongzhao City, he should be able to reach Dongzhao City an hour ago. Was he still on the battlefield when I took the blood tiger guard?
Xiao Yu knew that Ma Yuan could not answer his questions, so she did not say the questions from the bottom of her heart.
When night fell, Huang Shen came to Dongzhao City with more than 20,000 soldiers with 8,000 cavalry; when the time was almost past, Li Lianshan, Wang Tie, Zhang Ji and others also came to Dongzhao City with the remaining 22,000 soldiers.
Dongzhao City is just a small county, with more than 50,000 people suddenly, and there is an immediate feeling of overcrowding in the city.
Although there are many people in the city, there is no shortage of food in the city for the time being.
Chen Mao destroyed the largest granary in Dongzhao City, but more than 100 trucks of grain intercepted by Xiao Yu from Chen Mao were enough to support the overcrowded Dongzhao City for a long time.
When it was almost dawn, Xia Yu, who had been busy for several hours, finally untied the seal on Chen Mao's soul.
The reason why Chen Mao did not escape after destroying the granary was that he was restrained by Xia Yu, who went to Dongzhao City first before Xiao Yu.
After Huang Shen brought people to Dongzhao City, Xiao Yu took Chen Mao to the secret room of the General's Mansion of Dongzhao City to torture him what he wanted to know.
When Xia Yu's ecstasy did not affect Chen Mao, Xiao Yu directly killed Chen Mao.
With the cultivation of Xiao Yu and Xia Yu, even in the face of the soul of a master of Changshengjing, they can ask what they want to ask with ecstasy. However, a layer of seal on Chen Mao's soul makes Xiao Yu and Xia Yu unable to directly ask the questions they want to ask.
Although Xia Yu had some insight into the seal on his soul, it took him several hours to untie the seal on Chen Mao's soul without hurting Chen Mao's soul.
"This kind of seal is extremely unusual. I'm afraid Chen Mao has some special origin."
Xiao Yu nodded and used ecstasy to Chen Mao's struggling soul.
This time, as soon as Xiao Yu's ecstasy came out, Chen Mao's soul stopped struggling.
"Are you a disciple of that sect?"
"Kunlun!"
Hearing that Chen Mao said that he was a disciple of Kunlun, Xiao Yu and Xia Yu frowned.
Kunlun is one of the nine heavenly sects and the strongest sect in the world. In the practice world, almost no one dares to offend Kunlun disciples.
Looking at Xia Yu, Xiao Yu then asked in a low voice, "Among the three kings, shouldn't Kunlun help the Ming king? You are a disciple of Kunlun. Why are you a general under the command of King Shang?
"I would have been a person from Yunshan County. When I need to believe in the power of incense and cultivate immortality, I will certainly choose to work for Shangwang."
Xiao Yu nodded and then asked, "Who is your master? Why do you have so many strange treasures on you?
Even if Chen Mao's soul is now in Xiao Yu's ecstasy, when answering the question raised by Xiao Yu, there is still a sense of pride in his tone.
"The family teacher is the elder of Kunlun Wendao Pavilion. He is proficient in two elixirs. Naturally, there is no shortage of treasures on the general's body."
"What is the place of the Taoist Pavilion? Why did your master give you so many treasures to protect yourself?
"Wendao Pavilion is the place where the elders of Kunlun's outer gate gather. Master protected the alien treasure because he would have been a descendant of his direct blood."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu and Xia Yu frowned more tightly.
"Lord, we have caused a big trouble this time."
"Kunlun's help among the three kings is the King of Ming. Even if his master has a good position in Kunlun, he should not be qualified to mobilize Kunlun's strength to deal with us."
Replying to Xia Yu, Xiao Yu was silent for a while and began to ask Chen Mao something he wanted to know.
