This time, Zhu Meng was really shocked. After entering the account, he took the towel handed over by the guard and wiped his face. Panting, he drank three bowls of tea in succession. Seeing that the order outside the account was orderly, the general looked calm. In stark contrast to the turbulent scene outside, I thought to myself, Xiyun is Xiyun after all, even in such a critical situation, he can still keep calm, he probably found the right backer.As soon as the heartstrings were loosened, he collapsed on the bed and fell into a drowsy sleep.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly felt someone tugging at his robe and calling: "Second Highness, Second Highness."

Zhu Meng opened his eyes in a daze, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

Jin Wei said: "The Chi You people are calling, Commander Xi ordered the general to take the Second Highness away immediately."

Zhu Meng suddenly sat up with a jolt.

After taking a closer look, I found that the tent was lit with candles, and the outside of the curtain that was blown by the wind was pitch black, filled with noisy human voices and the neighing of war horses.He actually fell asleep until this hour!

Zhu Meng quickly put on his shoes and socks, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, let's go right away. By the way, where is Changling?"

"Young Master Changling is escorted by someone else, time is urgent, Second Highness, please leave as soon as possible."

"Then, is Cangjie back?"

"Not yet."

Zhu Meng always felt that something was wrong, but the more and more fierce fighting outside was tearing his nerves, which made him unable to calm down and think, so he had no choice but to follow the guard out of the tent.

There were already two rows of heavily armed black armored cavalry waiting outside, with the word "Yan" embroidered on the epaulets on their arms, but they just stood there quietly, like sharp knives with sharp blades, exuding a murderous aura.Obviously the border guards of Xiyun's direct lineage.

"Your Highness, please get on the horse."

Zhu Meng was tremblingly supported by the guards and climbed up the tall and mighty high-ranking horse, and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Go somewhere safe."

The guard immediately got on another horse, put his fingers between his lips, and whistled. Two rows of cavalry, one on the left and one on the right, rushed out of the encirclement and jumped into the depths of the night with Zhu Meng sandwiched between them.

Zhu Meng couldn't control such a high-level spirit horse at all. He hugged the horse's head tightly all the way, his legs trembling, trembling with the whistling wind and the sound of fighting in his ears.Fortunately, these spirit horses have undergone professional and rigorous training, even if they galloped through the steep mountains, they walked on the ground without knocking him down.

I don't know how long it took, the shouting and killing sound went away, and the ears gradually became quiet.

Zhu Meng opened his eyes tremblingly, only to realize that they had entered a certain dense forest in the depths of the spiritual realm, dew was dripping all around, and unknown fireflies were shining among the tree trunks, some were single, some were three or five Only get together.

This scene was vaguely familiar, Zhu Meng asked with a pale face, "W-Where is this?"

Perhaps it was due to the humidity in the air, during the movement, the old wound on the broken tail suddenly screamed sharply.Zhu Meng suddenly sounded, when Zhu Long cut off his tail that night, was he also in such a damp and dark spiritual realm?

Just as Jin Wei was about to answer, his face suddenly changed: "Not good!"

The originally scattered two rows of cavalry quickly formed four impenetrable human walls, enclosing Zhu Meng densely in the middle.The rustling sound wandered among the trees, Zhu Meng looked around in panic, and shouted: "Who!"

"Second Highness."

A man appeared haughtily from the depths of the dense forest, dressed in the service of a high-ranking general of the royal city guard, followed by a black army of guards and a bare-chested red-haired Chi You warrior holding a long knife.

Zhu Meng knew this person, and immediately said angrily: "Yes, Zhu Long sent you here."

The man said without hesitation: "That's right, His Royal Highness will send His Second Highness on the road in the future."

Zhu Meng's knees were weak, but when he thought of the guards on the border, he tried to straighten his back, pointed at those Chi You people, and said through gritted teeth: "You are openly colluding with foreigners, so don't be afraid that I will go to my father to take a copy of him! "

In his desperation, he babbled his words, but the other party obviously understood, smiled slightly, and said: "The Second Highness is really confused, there is no other His Majesty now, when the rebellion is suppressed, His Highness is the only righteous king of Qingqiu. "

Zhu Mengru was splashed with cold water, and suddenly remembered that Bo Hui had already been taken away by the Chiyou people, and he was waiting for him to use the White Tiger Order to rescue the soldiers. If he died here, the throne would fall into Zhu Long's hands Are you in?

"You, you want to rebel!"

Zhu Meng's voice trembled unknowingly.

The visitor said in surprise: "What are you talking about, Your Highness? We are suppressing rebellion and saving His Highness. The ones who really want to rebel are Xi Yun and the border guards led by Xi Yun. It's just that swords have no eyes, and the people who are in danger are the ones who want to rebel. First, the generals were not capable enough to let the Second Highness die at the hands of the rebels, so the Second Highness should not blame him."

Zhu Meng's eyes widened in shock and anger, his eyes turned black with anger, and he was about to vomit blood. For the first time, he truly saw the cruelty of winners and losers and what it means to turn black and white with just one mouth.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and snatch the Second Highness back!"

The leading general shouted sharply, and the dark army behind him immediately rushed towards the opposite "human wall".

**

On the hill not far away, two figures stood one behind the other, staring down at the situation below.

It was Xiyun and Changling.

At the moment when the guards in the front row were about to rush to the "human wall", Chang Ling tore off a spirit pouch hanging from a branch next to it, and suddenly there was a strong wind in the valley, and gravel flew around.

An invisible wall of air separated the two armies, and the imperial guards were thrown into chaos immediately. The Chiyou people who followed closely behind also formed a circle, looking at the beast that suddenly jumped in front of them in amazement.

"This is not the three thousand strange array created by your majesty."

Xiyun said suddenly.

Chang Ling twitched the corner of his mouth, and said: "There are so many strange formations in the world, and the ones recorded in ancient books can be transformed into thousands of different ones. Do all formations have to be born out of his masterpieces before they can be used?"

Xiyun frowned, and couldn't help but look back at Chang Ling.

Chang Ling said: "You don't have to be angry, just treat me as a fart."

Xi Yun's expression suddenly became even uglier.

Chang Ling tore off the second spirit sac without distraction.

Xi Yun suppressed his displeasure, turned his head and continued to watch the battle situation, and after a while, suddenly said solemnly: "There is a problem."

Chang Ling took a step forward and said: "That's right. Zhu Long and the Chi You people have colluded with each other for sure, but for such a big matter as strangling Zhu Meng, not only did the two of them not show up, but they only sent such a small force, which is really inappropriate." Common sense."

Xiyun looked back again.

In an instant, he nodded and said: "If it's really just to seek to usurp the throne, Zhu Long's biggest opponent is Zhu Meng. Now that Bo Hui has been controlled, there is really no reason for Zhu Long not to come here in person. Unless—"

"He has other goals."

Chang Ling said slowly.

Xiyun obviously thought of something, put his hand on the sword at his waist, mused and didn't speak.

Chang Ling said: "Give me five hundred elite cavalry."

Xiyun was stunned: "You..."

Chang Ling: "Who is their real target? Xi Shuai has also thought about it, hasn't he? Zhu Meng must eradicate all those who may threaten the throne if he wants to ascend the throne. In the family tree of the fox family, anyone who is qualified to inherit the throne except Zhu Meng Meng that idiot, and me, this waste. As for the Chi You people, they are the most cunning and greedy hunters in the Northland. If they don’t have enough benefits and sweetness, they won’t come here after smelling the smell and accept Zhu Long’s driving. To Chi You For humans, what is more attractive than the spiritual power in the altar of the fox clan?"

Xi Yun's expression was a bit complicated.

"Do you know what it means to lure the enemy deep with five hundred cavalry, even if it is an elite force? Once it fails—"

"I will not fail."

Xiyun frowned and looked at the arrogant young man in front of him, and couldn't help reminding: "There is no predictable war in this world. Even if you plan a strategy like Lord Boyan, you can't say that you will definitely win a battle."

Suddenly there were traces of vicissitudes in his eyebrows and eyes.

In the Battle of the Northern Snowfield, the most outstanding generals and generals of the Fox Clan fell, and almost all eighteen generals under Boyan's command were martyred. Like a scar that will never heal, it is engraved deep in the hearts of all border guards.

The most obvious change is that, as the first-generation iron cavalry that once made the entire Xianzhou fearful, the border guards have obviously begun to focus on defense instead of taking the initiative to attack.

As a general, even though Xi Yun managed to restore the morale of the army that was on the verge of collapse, he was unable to repair the traumatic sequelae caused by the tragic blood of the lord and his colleagues.

Even he himself no longer believes in the myth of gods and invincibility.

Chang Ling met Xiyun Yinren's face provocatively, and said with clear eyes: "I have said many times, I am not him, and I will never be him. You don't have to compare us together."

Xiyun said mercilessly: "Arrogance."

"Whether it is arrogance or the chance of winning, if you don't try, how will you know."

The air pressure between the two is rising again and again.

After a while, Xi Yun said: "Young people are too conceited, there is no benefit."

Chang Ling didn't care about the sarcasm in his words, and said: "If Xishuai has a better way, I don't have to do this bait. After all, I have always had no ambitions and no dedication."

Xiyun frowned.

With the current situation, there is indeed no better way to force Zhu Long and Zhuye out.

Although he couldn't understand the young master's behavior, he definitely couldn't just watch him go to die.

After weighing for a moment, he said, "I will go with you."

Chang Ling shook his head: "No, Xi Shuai has more important tasks."

"I'll lure Zhu Long and Chaye away, and Xi Shuai will leave me another 1000 people, and then take the border guards to join forces with Ah Kilometer to capture Wangcheng, completely cutting off Zhu Long's back path."

Xiyun was startled.

From the point of view of a general, this is indeed the best strategy. He never planned to adopt this strategy. First, he could not completely disregard the young master's life. Qiu's throne is bound to be won, and he will never leave the opportunity to attack the king's city to others, even the border guards.

He never expected that Chang Ling would take the initiative to ask him to lead troops to attack the royal city, and make himself the bait.
