The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 741 There is snow in West Lake

There is little snow south of the Yangtze River.

Pinghai County is located on the border between Jiangnan and Jiangbei. In the north, there are heavy snowfalls every year, but in the south, it is rare to get three or two hours of light snowfall.

But no matter what, the season of snowfall is always in winter.

Winter in the south of Zhongzhou always comes later than in the north.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. In the late autumn, a wind suddenly picked up one night and sent the drifting snow to the south of Pinghai County.

The autumn wind this night is a demonic wind.

The falling snow will only be a monster snow.

People don't know how this evil wind blew up.

I saw that thousands of trees seemed to have turned into pear trees, full of pear blossoms.

Snow is white.

Pear blossoms are also white.

The two thousand cavalrymen of the Proud Bloodthirsty Regiment are as white as pear blossoms.

It transformed into a snow-white demon spear and quietly penetrated into the hinterland of Zhejiang's coastal defense line.

The gun will see blood.

Like a blooming begonia.

Bloody begonias bloomed not only along the coast of Zhejiang Province, but also around the neck of Kamikaze Camp Commander Chen Xiaobo.

The bloody begonias along the coast of Zhejiang were formed by the blood of Zhongzhou soldiers who died in the battle.

The bloody begonia on the side of Chen Xiaobo's neck was kissed by a woman.

Rumor has it that after his wife died young, Chen Xiaobo became estranged from women and remained so for thirty years.

But I don't know since when, Chen Xiaobo spent the night with a woman named Mrs. Haitang every night.

Chen Xiaobo, who had always acted calmly and cautiously, began to speak harshly.

The kamikaze battalion under his command then installed wind, wind, fire and fire wheels.

The proud and bloodthirsty cavalry regiment moves like thunder, coupled with the kamikaze battalion with strong winds and arrows, it can be said that the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves, making them invincible.

The tip of the spear was pierced again and again, and the arrows were fired. No matter how strong the defense line of the iron barrel was, it should be penetrated from the inside.

What's more, the inside should be coordinated with the outside?

Therefore, from the end of October to the end of November in the year 2362 of the Zhongzhou calendar, it was the beginning of the winter solstice.

The Japanese army, which had been unable to gain a foothold after ten advances and ten retreats in Fujian, finally, with the help of the Zhongzhou people, was able to repeat the northward route taken by their ancestors twenty years ago in less than a month, and successfully occupied both Fujian and Zhejiang. The local coastline will lay a solid foundation for the next attack inland!

……

……

Both the Proud Bloodthirsty Regiment and the Kamikaze Battalion were military structures specially established by the imperial court in Pinghai County at that time.

It is an elite regular army trained to deal with the flourishing Jianghu gangs in Zhongzhou.

It is also an important strategic deployment that the two court controllers, Eunuch Yu and the fifth general, who were popular a few months ago, are proud of.

Times have changed, and my father-in-law has passed away for a few days, but the fifth general is still here.

The imperial court once spared no expense in building the Dragon-Slaying Sword and Heavenly Sword, but it was unexpected that now it would be used on its own land.

Upon hearing this, the Fifth Marquis, who was recovering from his injuries at the front line, couldn't help but blush and almost burst into anger.

And if Yu Tian, ​​who was wiped out in ashes, still has a so-called resentment, he will definitely be happy that his last words before his death came true.

——The huge Zhongzhou is all under his single-handed control. Once he dies, Zhongzhou will inevitably become more chaotic, and the war will burn faster and stronger!

……

……

The trouble should end it.

The Bloodthirsty Pride Group and the Kamikaze Camp were both set up to solve the troubles in Zhongzhou Jianghu.

Now that the dragon-slaying knife has turned back on its old master, Zhongzhou Jianghu can only deal with this disaster.

After helping the Japanese army stabilize their position along the coast, the proud bloodthirsty regiment's snow-white demonic spear became more and more courageous as they fought.

As Zhan Lihua swung his carbine, two thousand light cavalry charged all the way from the coast to the West Lake.

Zhejiang seemed to have been torn open in the middle, and the two most prosperous counties of Fuhang and Lin'an, less than a hundred miles away, were in danger.

Zhan Lihua knew very well that his flexible light cavalry regiment was mainly used in broad or long-term battlefields, and after paving the way for the Japanese to attack the city, they would immediately move to fight elsewhere.

The Anbu and Anbu couldn't stop the Proud Bloodthirsty Group, but they closely followed each other's movements.

Zhongzhou's righteous men, led by the Daoyi League, have set their sights on this bunch of pear blossoms and are about to break them by the West Lake.

For more than half a month, Zhan Lihua has proven to the world that she not only has a good-looking appearance, but also has unparalleled combat power and is extremely good at leading and training troops.

But the scary thing about Zhan Lihua is that he is very self-aware and will not be dazzled by the victory in front of him and get carried away.

Therefore, Zhan Lihua clearly realized that he had become a thorn in the flesh of the Jianghu people in Zhongzhou. Along the way, he ordered twenty people to pay attention to the situation along the way.

Do not fight a protracted war at the beginning of the war, but win a quick victory and fight as you go.

The temporary stay does not take more than half an hour.

Not leaving any opportunity for the enemy to double-team, with the foot power of the cavalry regiment, if encountering encirclement and interception, there will be losses, but not huge.

This is also the secret why the cavalry regiment of 2,000 people charged for nearly a month and still suffered less than a hundred casualties.

The same is true for this temporary rest by the West Lake.

The difference is that this time, there were exactly two battalions of soldiers and half a hundred Jianghu martyrs near the West Lake who captured the whereabouts of the Proud Bloodthirsty Group.

Even though they were outnumbered and outnumbered, they still planned to try to trap the cavalry regiment.

The two thousand cavalrymen wanted to evacuate quickly. Going from the West Lake to Qiantang Road and walking along the river was the best plan and the only choice.

If they could defeat the enemy, the cavalry regiment would lose hundreds of men.

Trapping a stick of incense, Zhan Lihua's men were lucky enough to escape half of them.

Stuck for half an hour, the complete annihilation of the Proud Bloodthirsty Group is no longer a pipe dream.

Zhan Lihua's vision was very sharp. When the scouts in the regiment discovered that less than a thousand troops were blocking the way forward, he had already clearly seen the two leading figures and the leader of the Jianghu rebels a hundred feet away. "Just you?"

Zhan Lihua saw her opponent's intention at a glance, and waited patiently for her subordinates to get ready for the battle and raise questions.

General Qi Guang, with a face like a crown jade and sword-like eyebrows and tiger eyes, replied: "It is not enough to annihilate you all, but it is enough to retain you."

The deputy Yu Dayou, who had a broad side and a big nose and an angry eyebrow, was not as polite as Qi Guang. He had already taken out his sword and pointed it at a distance. He shouted sternly with his eyes widened: "Treasonous bastard! How dare I compare my skills with your grandfather?" , let’s see which one is faster, your gun or Grandpa Yu’s sword!”

"Yu? Yu Dayou? I remembered that name correctly, right?" Zhan Lihua gently held up her chin with one hand, seeming to have tried very hard to remember the other person's name.

Yu Dayou laughed loudly and said: "Sun Tie is good, you haven't forgotten everything!"

Zhan Lihua ignored the other party's provocation and said calmly: "I've heard that you, with some skills, can indeed be called a master in the army, but compared with the Jianghu people, you can barely reach the second rate. . My sword skills are second-rate. It’s better to ask for advice from the senior martial artist next to you and learn a Tai Chi sword so that you can use it better when you need to brag in battle in the next life.”

Yu Dayou has a bad temper, but he is not a fool. Before the battle, he talked trash to each other, but he couldn't think of how to reply to Zhan Lihua, so he said: "Don't talk too much, let's fight!"

The old Wudang Taoist with gray robes and white hair, vertical wrinkles and prominent cheekbones spoke at this moment: "Zhan Lihua, you can be considered a half-worlder. As I get older, I will rely on my old skills to ask you a few questions."

Zhan Lihua said: "My men haven't had enough rest yet. You want to pass the time by talking to each other, so that's fine. Since Master Yuan can respect me, what if I wait for half a cup of tea?"

"General Zhan is so brave! I would like to call you General Zhan. General Zhan is truly a young man in Zhongzhou. He is highly regarded by the imperial court and has elite soldiers. Why did you betray your homeland and marry that gangster?"

It turns out that the Yuan Zhenren mentioned by Zhan Lihua is actually Yuan Shen, the previous head of Wudang, who is said to have been in seclusion for many years.

Zhan Lihua replied: "Zhenzhen Yuan is asking a lot. I think Xuan Xiao, who will succeed you as head of the sect, will understand my thoughts very well and will not ask such questions. I am also very curious as to why Zhenzhen would do this." Are you condescending to come to the front line to think things through? Or are you tired of Wudang food? How about I answer your questions and you answer mine?"

It didn't matter to Yu Dayou when others scolded him, but when he heard Zhan Lihua belittle the senior who was leading a group of disciples down the mountain, he became angry and roared: "Sun thief! Sharp teeth and sharp mouth! Come and do it!" Let’s have one!”

However, Yuan Shen waved his hand and said it didn't matter, and said to Zhan Lihua, "Please give me some advice."

Zhan Lihua still turned a deaf ear to Yu Dayou's words and only focused on completing the questions and answers with Yuan Shen.

"Okay, let me answer your question first.

“This needs to lay a big background first.

"Zhongzhou is a vast land with abundant resources, but maybe it's because there are too many people in Zhongzhou. There are very few broad-minded people, but there are many small-minded people. No matter where you are, there are always people who are jealous of the wise and capable. Even if they have never met each other, they just know you. Your name is related to what you do, and if your existence cannot bring him or them any benefit, they will try their best to extract something from you, or make you disappear somewhere.

"Although there are many fewer officials in the court, those weaklings who have never even killed a chicken have never changed their temper. They don't know the various conditions and difficulties on the front line, so they just point their fingers and "delay the opportunity for war" with evil intentions. 'Waiting for the nonsense impeachment to come even more easily!

“The scary thing is that they dare to say it, but some people dare to believe it!

“How many capable people with lofty ideals were thrown into the dust without making any achievements, and either wasted their lives or changed their way of life.

"I'm quite lucky. In order to fight for power and deal with the Jianghu people, the Fifth Marquis and Yu Tian took a fancy to my three-thirds of an acre of land, so they had the funds and talents to lean towards it.

“But I still don’t think it’s worth dying to serve such a country.

"There are officials and officials in the imperial court, and there are many people like you, Master Yuan, in the world.

“If you hadn’t been obsessed with fighting for power, why would Wudang have remained unknown for more than ten years?

"Of course, everyone in Wudang has to thank you for reining in the situation. Thank you for Xuan Xiao's ability to reach the sky and the earth. After being deposed, he was able to practice again in a dark place for more than ten years. Otherwise, Wudang would not be reborn at the moment. , received unanimous praise from the court and the world.

"Master Yuan, I said that Ruo Xuanxiao must understand me very well here. I really didn't mean to target you. It's just that you hit the muzzle of the gun specially. It was a coincidence."

Yuan Shen lightly twirled his beard and hair and admitted: "I really feel sorry for our sect and have gone into seclusion specifically for this. Thank you General Zhan for criticizing me again. I will be vigilant for the rest of my life."

Zhan Lihua sneered and said, "Zhenzhen Yuan is really good-tempered right now, so there's no need to be polite. I was just about to ask, why are you meddling in other people's business if you don't take a good retreat?"

Yuan Shen said: "The affairs of the family and the country are not trivial matters. Before going to the northern battlefield, the leader invited the old man to come out to handle the affairs of the faction. The old man heard that the war situation in Fujian was anxious, and he remembered that he had fought in Fujian and Zhejiang in the past. So I brought some disciples over to help. I recently learned about General Zhan’s great achievements and came here to check on the situation. It’s a coincidence that he agreed with what the general said!”

Zhan Lihua said: "So, I am honored that Master Yuan is still here for me. But in my opinion, Master Yuan has been sleeping in seclusion for these years, right? Why does he still sound so self-righteous? You don’t even listen to the words of the current leader and go down the mountain on your own initiative?”

Yuan Shen imitated Zhan Lihua and turned a deaf ear to those useless words, and said: "Before I came here, I heard about the Zhan family's situation and learned that it was not easy for General Zhan these years. The next question is General Zhan's feelings for Zhongzhou's family. It’s okay to be disheartened by the imperial court and decide to defect from Zhongzhou, but why do you want to trap the two thousand Zhongzhou men behind you?”

Zhan Lihua said: "Haha, are you persuading surrender or alienation? It's not easy. Before leaving Pinghai, I drank blood with my brothers and vowed to help the Japanese people cleanse Zhongzhou. After that, the population of those who are willing to stay will decrease sharply. In the vast land of Zhongzhou, we no longer need to face complicated competitions. Those who are willing to go to Japan with me can stay in a corner and ignore the world. "

Yuan Shen couldn't believe it and couldn't understand it, so he asked: "Is it just that?"

Zhan Lihua said scornfully: "My brothers and I have dug our hearts and souls, without so many twists and turns, that's enough!"

Qi Guang and Yu Dayou looked at each other. They were both men who had led soldiers. It can be imagined that under this general situation, it might not be difficult to persuade their subordinates to rebel with them. It might not be difficult to put them on the border far away from the emperor, but they had to let go. To lead thousands of people to rebel in a place where there is plenty of food and clothing without the urgency of war is as difficult as persuading young masters and ladies from wealthy families to give up everything and commit suicide by cutting their throats!

So the two of them didn't believe it either, but they couldn't help but believe it.

Because the formation in front of me seems impossible to fake.

"Then it's my turn to ask the question." Zhan Lihua said, "Based on my understanding of the Wudang Sect, your sect's Taoism, swordsmanship, and formations mainly emphasize the last move, first move. If our army doesn't take the initiative to entangle with you, and It's a detour, and your faction has to take the initiative, so how can we intercept our army's path? "

Zhan Lihua's problem is on point, which is why the two battalions of troops and Wudang Sect disciples did not rush to act after arriving at the scene, but waited here to delay time with words, or even provoke the opponent's Emotional Sect to attack head-on.

There are only a few of them, just like there are many rocks in the Qiantang River. If the rapid currents do not rush towards the rocks and can only be avoided, how can the rocks block them?

Yuan Shen replied: "I and the other disciples will try their best to retain the general."

If a group of dragons loses its leader, it will be easily defeated, and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Qi Guang also gave an answer: "If you are a torrent, we are sandbags. No matter how wide the torrent is, how wide the sandbags are, where the torrent flows, where the sandbags block it!"

Zhan Lihua raised her gun and mounted her horse and said, "Okay! I'm done with my heroic words. I hope you can touch the corners of my clothes."

On this day, a torrent poured out of the West Lake.

The torrent hit the rocks and created layers of waves.

The waves splashed in the air, as white as snow.

Suddenly, it started to snow beside the West Lake.

The strange thing is that the white snow quickly turned red.

Whether it is snowflakes or sprays, they are all replaced by bloodflakes.

In less than half an hour, the snow had fallen, the waves had disappeared, and a bloody torrent surged to the bank of the Qiantang River.

The so-called rocks and sandbags by the West Lake were either submerged by the torrent, or were smashed and scattered, leaving almost no trace of them.

Nearly a thousand Zhongzhou soldiers and fifty-one Wudang disciples died without any intact bodies.

But they also fought tooth and nail to save the lives of more than 800 cavalrymen.

Arriving on Qiantang Road, Zhan Lihua couldn't just walk away. He had already bumped into his next opponent - Long Yanling.

Sin, sin, sin!

Another new update record!

The book is almost finished, and it takes a lot of time to think about switching scenes in the later stage, and to connect the related work in the early stage. And recently, I have been working overtime every day, and my brain is exhausted every day. When I get home, I just want to lie down.

Well, question the eunuch, laugh at the eunuch, and understand the eunuch.

Try not to be a eunuch~~~
