Chapter 138 Encircle and suppress Yuyang, and kill them with all your strength!

"We only have half an hour left. Fortunately, my lord came back in time, otherwise he would have been punished by military law."

"Yuyang Sect?"

Chen Sanshi whistled to call Bai Hu horse and asked about the details on the way.

But Zhao Kang was only a captain, responsible for conveying messages, and had no right to know the specific plans.

"Let's go!"

"drive--"

When a group of people rushed to the military camp, more than 4,000 people had already gathered on the training ground.

The reserve battalion has a total of 12,000 people, divided into four parts: front, back, left and right. All the members of the left part where Chen Sanshi is located are present. They are responsible for tonight's mission. Deputy General Sha Wenlong will command personally, and Yu Song will be responsible for assisting.

Specific combat strategies are carried out within the tent, and only those above the rank of captain can participate.

Bai Tingzhi, Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu were all there.

Then, there was Sha Wenlong, the general of the reserve battalion, whom Chen Sanshitou had met once.

Sha Wenlong was transferred from Youzhou. He was originally a fierce general under General Jing. He had a rough appearance and one of his eyes was blinded on the battlefield, so he wore an eyepatch. The weapon in his hand was a dragon-scale broadsword.

The aura on his body is much stronger than that of the old slave Cao Fan, and it seems that he is indeed in the Xuanxiang realm.

I just don’t know why they suddenly want to attack the Yuyang Sect. Could it be related to the Wushen Cult?
"Commander Yu! You make the announcement."

After Sha Wenlong finished speaking, he leaned on his knife and closed his eyes to rest.

"Yes!"

Yu Song narrated:
"The Wushen Cult has been rampant recently, but we have not been able to find any trace of it. So we suspected that there might be some sect colluding with the Wushen Cult. General Sha secretly bribed disciples from many sects to act as spies, and finally got some results.

“An inner sect disciple of Yuyang Sect said that he once saw with his own eyes a man in black who killed someone with a vajra at night but did not leave the mountain, but hid in the residence of Huang Tianrong, the leader of Yuyang Sect.

“So, we suspect that Huang Tianrong is cooperating with the Wushen Cult, or in other words, he is a member of the Wushen Cult!

"Tonight's mission is to capture Huang Tianrong alive, and not let any of them escape until we have investigated how many of the Yuyang Sect's disciples are in collusion with the Wushen Cult!"

The Yuyang Sect colluded with the Wushen Sect?

Chen Sanshi was actually a little bit unconvinced.

A third-rate sect, whose leader, according to the existing intelligence, was only at the Huajin level, was the lowest-ranking force in Liangzhou. How dare they collude with the Wushen Sect? You know, even the Yunu Sect, which was almost wiped out, was a genuine second-rate sect, with its leader at the Tongmai level.

How many lives do they have?

Of course, it is also possible that they were coerced, just like the Jinzhong Temple in the past, which was the place used by the Wushen Cult to hide.

We won’t know what it’s like until we get there.

Bai Tingzhi said, "Commander Yu, I have a question."

Yu Song took out the map, slowly spread it out on the table, and said without looking up: "Speak!"

"Recently, many disciples of Yuyang Sect have died mysteriously, right?"

Bai Tingzhi said seriously: "If they really colluded with the Wushen Cult, why were so many disciples killed?"

"obviously."

Lu Shuhua held the sword in his arms and said in a deep voice: "It's just a trick to deceive people."

"Brother Lu is right."

Xie Sishu took over the conversation: "The more they cooperate with the Wushen Cult, the more they will kill their own people to prove their innocence and become invincible."

Bai Tingzhi said thoughtfully: "If that's the case, it's damnable."

"General Sha."

Yu Song pointed at the laid-out map of Liangzhou and said with a fist: "I have finished speaking. It is time for you to make your own arrangements."

"General Sha!"

Lu Shuhua said first: "Please send me and my subordinates to the most dangerous place!"

"me too."

Xie Sishu followed up by saying, "I will not refuse even if I die."

"It sounds nice, but you just want to make a contribution!"

Bai Tingzhi said it all in one sentence.

To compete for the position of chief disciple, one not only needs to have a higher realm than the current disciples, but also needs to have an extra B-class military achievement before one can start the challenge in the ring.

"The general has his own arrangements!"

Yu Song scolded: "Just follow my orders!"

Sha Wenlong slowly opened his eyes, came to the map, and said in a deep voice: "Since not all Yuyang Sect disciples are in collusion with Wushen Sect, we cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately, otherwise it will cause irreparable negative impact on the eight major constructions.

“So tonight, the army is mainly used for encirclement rather than massacre.

"Huang Tianrong doesn't need you guys either, instead, Lieutenant General Yu and I will do it ourselves.

"Your main task is to each bring 20 people to sneak into Yuyang Sect and then take over these places."

As he spoke, he selected several locations on the map with his hand.

When everyone took a closer look, they found that the entire internal structure of Yuyang Sect was painted clearly, including every courtyard and every path, all of which were extremely detailed.

“Each of these courtyards has a disciple who practices internal refining, and he is Huang Tianrong’s core disciple.

"If they cooperate, we will capture them alive and bring them down the mountain. If they don't cooperate, we will kill them!

“As long as Huang Tianrong and the others are arrested and put on display, the other Yuyang Sect disciples will definitely not dare to have the slightest intention of resisting, and the impact of this incident can be reduced to a minimum.

"You all, do you understand?"

"Leader!"

Everyone said in unison.

"The Wushen Cult is a serious matter. If we allow it to continue, it won't necessarily cause much trouble. On the contrary, if we can follow the clues through the Yuyang Sect and find out the truth behind it, our preparatory camp will have done a great job!"

Sha Wenlong said: "In addition, as long as you complete your respective tasks, it will be counted as a third-class combat merit."

"set off!"

……

The 4,000 men in the left wing of the reserve camp set out in full force, marching silently out of the city in the cover of night. They heavily guarded each intersection leading down the mountain from Yuyang Sect with a thousand men to ensure that no one was spared.

"Zhao Kang, Wang Li, Zhu Tong, Xu Bin, each of you pick five people to follow me up the mountain. Feng Yong, you lead the rest to guard the mountain pass!"

Chen Sanshi quickly completed the arrangements and led them to sneak into Yuyang Sect.

The Yuyang Sect was built on a hill outside the city. It wasn't very big, but the terrain was complex, with one courtyard after another, like a maze. There were also many disciples patrolling in the middle, so it was definitely not an easy task to find the destination quickly at night.

Fortunately, he remembered the map clearly and could see clearly at night, so he arrived at his destination as quickly as possible, a house with a closed gate connected to the back mountain.

The strange thing is that this place doesn't look like a place where people live. There are spider webs on the gate and the yard is dead silent.

"Didn't we agree that each person would be responsible for a true disciple? Why is there no one here?"

In order to avoid making a mistake, Chen Sanshi even jumped onto the eaves and searched the house carefully using the Qi-gazing technique. He was 100% sure that no one lived here, which made him alert.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
This reminded him of what Tang Yingke had said to him during the day.

Sha Wenlong...

"I was left empty-handed and unable to accomplish anything?"

“It shouldn’t be that simple.”

A mere third-class military achievement would not be enough to shake his position as the chief disciple.

Then there is danger!
Could it be that the people hiding among the Wushen followers will appear here soon?
Not sure.

It's just speculation at the moment, and it's possible that he's just being overly suspicious.

But even if the other party really had some intention, he couldn't leave.

A word
The military order is like a mountain!

Leaving one's post without permission, especially on the battlefield, is an absolute capital crime.

The more he is the commander-in-chief's true disciple, the more he must set a good example, otherwise it will be more difficult to deal with him.

"Let's take it one step at a time and figure out what this yard is used for first."

Chen Sanshi ordered: "Search!"

……

in the dark.

Huang Tianrong was in front, followed by seven or eight true disciples and a dozen inner disciples. They crowded forward in panic, looking back from time to time, as if they were avoiding some ferocious beast.

"Master!"

"He...they really surrounded us!"

"If Master hadn't reacted quickly, we would have been thrown into jail!"

"Junior Brother Ma is really damned. He looks honest on weekdays, but he actually framed us in this way. It's a pity that Master still wants to train him as the next sect leader!"

"Colluding with the Wushen Cult? Ridiculous! So many of our fellow disciples have died, how could we possibly be connected to the Wushen Cult!"

"They couldn't catch the Wushen Cult, and the pressure was too great, so they wanted to use us as a scapegoat! The Eight Great Battalions are really not good people!"

"Master... Could it be that what Eighth Junior Brother saw was true?"

One disciple said something different.

Huang Tianrong, who was walking in the front, stopped, looked back at him, and said angrily: "You actually doubted your master?
"The Wushen Cult killed dozens of my Yuyang Sect's disciples! Among them was your third senior brother, who had the greatest hope of breaking through to the Tongmai realm and strengthening my Yuyang Sect again! How could I, your master, destroy my ancestors' foundation!"

Several disciples looked at each other, and felt that it was illogical.

"Master, what should we do next?"

"How about explaining it clearly?"

"Explain it!"

Huang Tianrong cursed: "Do you think they sent out so many troops just to listen to your explanation? If any of you want to stay and die, I won't stop you! If you want to live, follow me!
“This tunnel was left by our ancestors so that when a catastrophe like this one comes, the inheritance will not be completely cut off!
"The end of the tunnel is a small courtyard in the back mountain. There are gold and silver buried inside. Take the things and let's leave Liangzhou directly and go to Mingzhou to seek refuge with King Liang of Meishan!"

"King Liang?"

The disciple was surprised: "Doesn't that mean we have to go up the mountain and become bandits..." "That's right, we have to go up the mountain and become bandits!"

Huang Tianrong said angrily: "Since Sun Xiangzong came, he refused to increase taxes on the common people, but preferred to let the sect pay. In just five years, how much of our resources have been taken away?
"Now that this has happened, it is most likely that they have set their eyes on the Luohe River passed down by our ancestors and want to take it for themselves!

"It's better to rebel against such a court!"

A group of disciples all thought the analysis made sense.

"If you stay here, you will die. But if you follow me, you will have a bright future! It may not be impossible for you to be made a marquis or a prime minister in the future!"

"Quick, let's go!"

……

"Sir, we found a lot of weapons and gold and silver!"

Zhao Kang pointed to the treasure piled up in the middle of the yard and said, "It was hidden very well. We had to dig deep into the ground to find it."

"There's something wrong with this place..."

Chen Sanshi pondered secretly.

What kind of place would be used to hide money?
This place is obviously not a heavily guarded place, so this can only be the last retreat!
He also roughly guessed what would happen today.

Sha Wenlong and others rushed to Huang Tianrong's residence but found nothing. The latter had already received the news and escaped in advance. This was their destination. As long as they climbed out, they could enter the mountains and escape!

"Everyone leave the yard and follow me to ambush outside!"

Chen Sanshi gave the order.

He locked the gate of the yard again and hid in the woods outside.

Within a cup of tea, a group of people were seen running over in a panic.

"really……"

Just as Chen Sanshi guessed, this place is the last retreat for this group of people!
Sha Wenlong sent him here...

It is very likely that he was deliberately allowed to encounter the Hua Jin warrior in order to kill him with a borrowed knife!
To understand this, we only need to look at the speed of Tianmingdi's support!

"not good!"

Huang Tianrong took out the key, but before he even reached the door, he realized something was wrong: "Go!"

"Fire arrows!"

Chen Sanshi shouted.

However, the warriors in front of him were at least at the Bone Training Realm, and he was the only one who could knock down one with one arrow. The lethality of the bows and arrows of the others was really limited.

"Don't panic, there aren't many of them!"

Huang Tianrong was a master after all, and he was very experienced. He quickly determined the situation: "Kill them quickly, then take the silver and leave!"

While blocking the arrows, he stood in the front and charged forward. The harpoon in his hand was like a dragon emerging from the sea, whistling straight into Chen Sanshi's face.

The Five Tigers Soul-Breaking Spear and the harpoon collided with each other.

A force different from qi and blood suddenly attacked, and even though Chen Sanshi entered a state of violent blood loss, he still retreated half a step, but that was all.

The introduction to Hua Jin Gong Fa is to internal strength, before external strength. The gap between it and the perfection of refining internal organs would be huge for ordinary people, but for him, it seems... not that scary!
In the blood-thirsty state, I can hold on!

Moreover, there didn't seem to be any other masters of the Wushen Cult around, so the situation wasn't too serious.

Of course, it would be best if there were reinforcements nearby!
"It's you? Chen Sanshi!"

Huang Tianrong had met him at Ciyun Temple and said, "How dare you, a cultivator, stop me! Die!"

Things have come to this point. Let alone Sun Xiangzong's disciple, even if Sun Xiangzong himself came, he would have to fight to the death!
……

"General Sha, why is there no one here?"

At the other end of Yuyang Sect, where the sect master lived, only a few women were left huddled on the ground, sobbing in fear.

"Do you still need to ask?"

Sha Wenlong looked at the corpse under his feet. It was the disciple of Yuyang Sect who informed them: "It must be this loser who leaked the news, allowing Huang Tianrong to notice it and escape early."

"What should I do? Where should I look for it?"

"How would this general know?"

"Chirp—"

While they were discussing, several whistling arrows were shot out from the southeast sky.

"General Sha, there is a signal!"

Yu Song said, "We had a rule before we came here. Unless we find Huang Tianrong, we must not alert the others. Huang Tianrong is at the Huajin level, and the Qianzongs are still at the Refining Zang level. No matter who encounters him, it will be dangerous. Let's go quickly!"

"Not in a hurry."

Sha Wenlong's face was calm: "Maybe it's Huang Tianrong's trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain? Look around."

"Okay, fine. I'll obey your orders!"

……

Twenty rounds passed.

Chen Sanshi was still fighting with the Hua Jin warriors, and as time went on, he went from being suppressed in the beginning to gradually stabilizing the situation.

"What a bastard!"

The brothers who were fighting with the Yuyang Sect disciples nearby cursed: "It's been a while since the signal was sent, why hasn't anyone come to support us yet!"

"Do you still need to ask..."

Chen Sanshi's eyes were cold.

They were designed!

In all likelihood, the person with the surname Sha was instructed by Yin Hanwen or Cao Fan!

Good thing...

As the fight went on, he discovered something.

There is nothing special about a martial artist who has reached the state of Hua Jin!

It was difficult to deal with Cao Fan across the border before because he was also an unparalleled genius.

But not everyone is a genius.

Huang Tianrong is obviously not one of them, otherwise it would not be possible for the leader of a sect to only be able to transform his energy.

One step away, one step away!

His energy and blood must be far inferior to mine!
As one gains strength while the other loses strength, the gap between the two further narrows!
"How can it be……"

Huang Tianrong, who was full of confidence before taking action, soon turned pale. He couldn't imagine why he, a martial artist of Hua Jin, couldn't defeat the opponent.

This guy's blood-bursting state started out with full firepower, but later on he actually used his energy and blood to resist his strength!

Qi and blood fight against strength!

How horrible, such a fantasy!

He gradually understood what it meant to be a leader who could stand out from the many geniuses in the capital and thirty-six states. It meant that he could not be viewed by the standards of ordinary people at all!
"Mr. Chen! You and I are acquaintances. How about we both give in and let me go?"

The only answer he had was the silver gun!
With the blessing of the Xuanyuan Five Organs Body, the dragon elephant blood in Chen Sanshi's body completely entered a violent state. With the [Heart of the Qilin], he was able to break the opponent's moves and routines. The whole person seemed to have turned into a demon god descending from the sky.

It was clearly a cross-border battle, but it had a suppressive effect!

"Dang Dang Dang——"

The harpoon in Huang Tianrong's hand became heavier and heavier, and more and more difficult to control. The strength in his body was also being consumed at a very fast rate and was soon approaching exhaustion.

The Qi and blood of an internal martial artist is limited, and the strength of a martial artist who transforms strength is not infinite!

If you fail to defeat your opponent before your strength is exhausted, all your advantage will be gone!
"clang!"

Another collision of metal and iron.

Just listen to a crisp "click" sound.

The harpoon in Huang Tianrong's hand broke!
……

"General Sha!"

Yu Song felt uneasy and always felt that something was strange tonight.

He said, "How about you stay here and I go to the place where the arrows sounded?"

"Well, it seems that this is not a way to lure the tiger away from the mountain. This general will go with you."

Sha Wenlong said this and set off.

Forty rounds of time!

almost.

The task assigned to him by Master Yin was enough to be completed!

No matter how useless Huang Tianrong is, he is still a Hua Jin warrior and should be able to kill that guy.

Tonight's arrangements are perfect!
Everything can be explained by accident.

If he died in battle, even if he was a disciple of the commander-in-chief, there would be nothing to worry about!

It’s not like there haven’t been true disciples who died in battle before!

Thinking of this, Sha Wenlong quickened his pace.

Until he arrived at the place and saw...

A long spear turned into a silver dragon under the moonlight and pierced Huang Tianrong's heart!

"Keng!"

Almost at the same time.

Chen Sanshi drew out the Zhenyue Sword, cut off Huang Tianrong's head, and smashed it directly in front of Sha Wenlong, splashing blood all over his body and face.

"General Sha."

He said word by word: "It seems that you have missed the target!"
