Chapter 690 Breaking Out of the City
Although the rank of a general in the army is not high, he is the adjutant of Dadutong and has great power. If this person is arranged by Li Qianlong, it is not impossible to use some means to control Dadutong, and even conspire to seize military power.

If this possibility is true, I am afraid that more than [-] red-feathered cavalry will arrive soon. These deceived soldiers must be fighting for the emperor Li Qianlong.

How to be deceived is too easy, Chu Xian can think of several ways without using his brain.

For example, the Shoufu Pavilion betrayed the emperor, betrayed the ancestors, and conspired to commit treason, so the Red Feather Army was summoned to rescue him, and once [-] elite soldiers entered the city, they would cooperate with the [-] forbidden troops and [-] Jianghu killers inside to fight against the voodoo blood. Under the rain, it must be invincible and invincible. Even if there are hundreds of martial arts masters in the Shoufu Pavilion, they will definitely not be able to resist. At that time, how many people will be left in the Shoufu Pavilion immortal officials?The entire officialdom in Jingzhou is afraid that blood will flow into rivers.

In this way, in just one night, the entire holy dynasty will change its appearance, and Li Qianlong can truly wipe out all enemies and become a powerful emperor.

Thinking of this, Chu Xian couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat.

It's not that he was stepping on each other's random thoughts, judging from the current situation, it must be the case, otherwise, why did Li Qianlong want to engage in literary inquisition before, and even involved the assistant minister inside the Shoufu Pavilion?
Looking at it now, it was just a cover-up, a smoke bomb, and what the opponent really wanted to control was military power.

Because under the rain of voodoo and blood, military power is the most terrifying, and the only key that can determine the outcome. Even a Taoist master like Grand Master Xiao Yu, under the rain of voodoo and blood, cannot withstand the impact of an army of ten thousand people. At that time, there is no doubt that he will die.

Chu Xian knew what he should do. With the current situation in Jingzhou, Chu Xian couldn't help, but if he could stop the upcoming [-] elite red-feathered cavalry, that would be more important than anything else.

Of course, this is just Chu Xian's conjecture. Maybe Li Qianlong didn't have such a deadly calculation. Maybe the [-] red-feathered cavalry eighty miles away were not controlled by the generals placed by Li Qianlong, and they wouldn't come.

But in any case, if this kind of thing happens, Li Qianlong really has a great chance of winning, and it is very likely that the victory will be established overnight.

When the time comes, even Grand Master Lu Yan returns from abroad, and it will not help.

When Chu Xian thought of this, he already had a plan. He wanted to leave the city directly. If the [-] red-feathered cavalry were to come, the direction and route were certain. Stopping them before they entered Jingzhou might be able to avoid this catastrophe.

Of course, Chu Xian didn't know whether he could stop the [-] iron cavalry, and he was even more uncertain about the method to use, but let's go first and let the soldiers come to cover up the water and soil.

Chu Xian asked Fat Niao to explore the way. He had to go out of the city through the north gate. Now the streets and alleys were full of forbidden soldiers, and they were fighting with the original defenders. Chu Xian didn't have the time and effort to help. Although the rain of voodoo and blood didn't take long, the possibility of Li Qianlong mobilizing the cavalry in advance cannot be ruled out.

Therefore, it is still necessary to prevent problems before they happen, and to intercept them in advance, there is definitely no harm.

Thanks to Fat Bird's support on this journey, Chu Xian can avoid some troublesome places, avoid some battles, and save time. After all, if it is a red-feathered iron cavalry, it will not take long to arrive if it is eighty miles away. You can arrive there in an hour or two.

I arrived under the north gate without any danger, but here, the security is already heavily guarded, and the surroundings are full of dead bodies. Under the rain, the blood on the ground is difficult to wash away. It is conceivable that this battle that happened not long ago has a lot of influence. How tragic.

Sure enough, the gates of the city were already under the control of the Imperial City Guards, and there were many experts recruited by the imperial officials. Just one gate alone was guarded by about a thousand troops.

Chu Xian is alone, even if he is a martial sage, it is difficult to capture. After all, Chu Xian is only one person, and there are also martial sages and many masters.

At this time, a figure fell down, it was the corpse swordsman.

The body of the corpse swordsman now is the daughter of the former servant of Chu Xian's family. Although she is thin and not tall, she is a corpse swordsman after all. The sword in her hand is enough to kill ordinary martial saints.

She was able to rush over, obviously fighting to escape, and the corpse swordsman was also injured, but fortunately it was not particularly serious.

With the corpse swordsman following him, Chu Xian's combat strength could be increased. What he has to do now is to leave Jingzhou and go outside the city.The city wall is ten feet high, and the building is extremely solid. Because of the special design, even a martial artist can hardly climb over the high wall by using rock climbing and light kung fu. It is smeared with a kind of carrion and bone-biting medicinal powder, and even the body of a Taoist immortal will be damaged if it is touched.

Right now the city is in chaos, but the Imperial City Imperial Army has already taken control of the North Gate. Obviously, it has been planned for a long time. The entire four gates of Jingzhou may be temporarily controlled by the Imperial Army.

Chu Xian couldn't wait. Li Qianlong sent so many people to control the city gate, and his purpose was already very obvious. First, it was to resist the possible arrival of foreign soldiers from the Shoufu Pavilion. Second, it was to meet their own army. So, the five The arrival of the Wanhongyu iron cavalry is already a high probability event.

Along the way, Chu Xian also picked up a steel knife from the corpses of some soldiers. With a knife in hand, Chu Xian can also perform powerful sword skills, but even with him and the corpse swordsman, they want to break through the city gate Going out is also extremely difficult.

But at this time, a group of city guards came over there, and Chu Xian immediately went up to meet them.

The jurisdiction of the City Guards is in the Shoufu Pavilion, so these are all their own people.

Seeing someone approaching, the city guards immediately had their swords in their hands, on guard, on guard, but when Chu Xian reported his family name, only an officer dressed as a school lieutenant came forward and pointed at Chu Xian's heart.

"I've seen Mr. Chu!" The captain was very polite, and he recognized Chu Xian at the moment. After all, Chu Xian is quite famous in Jingzhou, and there are very few people who don't know Chu Xian.

Chu Xian inquired about the situation, only to find out that the situation in Jingzhou is not as serious as Chu Xian thought. Except for the city gate being lost and captured by the imperial army, the imperial army was short of manpower in other places. Except for guarding the imperial city, nothing too serious Big damage, of course, the current situation is chaotic, and I only know a rough idea, but generally speaking, the Shoufu Pavilion is still in control of the overall situation.

Chu Xian understood that even if Li Qianlong had plans and preparations, he would not be able to occupy an overwhelming advantage. Right now, his military strength can only barely compete with the Shoufu Pavilion, and he cannot truly crush it.

This further shows that to establish a victory, we can only rely on external forces.

Li Qianlong is already breaking the boat, walking a tightrope. The Shoufu Pavilion can wait for the rain to stop. As long as the rain stops, the strength of the immortal officials in the Shoufu Pavilion will recover, and their spells will reach the sky. It will be easy to suppress Li Qianlong's manpower, but Li Qianlong can't wait. , he must establish a victory during the rainy period.

And the key to the victory may be the fifty thousand red-feathered cavalry.

But the school lieutenant didn't know this. The school lieutenant told Chu Xian that the Shoufu Pavilion had ordered that the [-] soldiers stationed in the Chijin barracks fifty miles away were already on their way, so they had to capture the city gate and send reinforcements to the city. Open the channel.

Chu Xian didn't say much. Right now, he wants to capture the city gate and take back control of the city gate. We can talk about the rest after capturing the city gate.

The city guards brought by the school lieutenant were not many, only more than 300 people, but all of them were elites, among them there were many innate masters, and there was even a martial arts master.

However, if only relying on these people, it would be extremely difficult to capture the North Gate.

On the side of the imperial army, not only are there more people, but there are also martial arts saints in charge, which also shows from the side that whether this can control the city gate is very important to Li Qianlong.

Chu Xian thought for a while, and asked the captain to find a city guard, and Chu Xian wrote a letter, asking the other party to bring it to Grand Master Xiao Yu of the Shoufu Pavilion.

The other party got the order and immediately sent a message.

In the letter, Chu Xian expressed his guess. After all, this kind of thing had to be prevented. If those [-] red-feathered iron cavalry entered the city, with the help of the voodoo blood rain, it would be enough to kill all the officials in the city. Even massacres can be done.

The soldier went to send a message, and Chu Xian also told his purpose, and at the same time told the captain, with their current 300 people, it is absolutely impossible to regain the city gate.

The school lieutenant looked serious. He was very clear about the situation of the city guards. Although there were tens of thousands of people, many were separated to protect the city officials, and not many of them could really be used for a battle.And before coming here, I really didn't expect that there would be so many masters guarding the gate of the city.

This is indeed something they did not expect, at least the commander of the city guard made a mistake in this matter.

But if I go back to find reinforcements, I am afraid it will take some time to go back and forth. According to what Chu Xian said, it is time to race against time. If there are [-] cavalry to help the Imperial Secretary and the Imperial Army, then all It's all over.

Thinking of this, the captain looked determined, and said to Chu Xian: "Master Chu wants to go out of the city to stop the traitor's reinforcements. This is related to the safety of the holy pilgrimage. It is a big matter. If I don't wait, I will swear to the death to protect Master Chu from the city."

Chu Xian couldn't refuse.

Right now was the critical moment, and he could see the captain's decision, including the determination of the [-] city guard soldiers behind him, but Chu Xian hesitated at this time.

What if his previous speculation was wrong?

Li Qianlong was not as calculating as he thought, or in other words, the opponent's people did not really seize the command of the [-] red-feathered cavalry. In this case, is it necessary for him to rush out of the city desperately?
But this kind of thing, even if there is a one-ten-thousandth possibility, it must be done, even if it has to pay some price.

The captain knew and made a decision without hesitation, how could Chu Xian back down?
"Chu Xian, thank you all the soldiers!" Chu Xian clasped his fists in salute. He knew that in this battle, the [-] city guards would be injured. He knew that he was going to die but he was still loyal. Chu Xian admired this staunch loyalty.
