Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 326: Unexpected Alliance

"Report——"

"General, half an hour ago, Bajiaozhai was burned down, and the bandits are scattered!"

"Report——"

"General, Fuhu Village has also been burned down, and the surrounding area is a sea of ​​fire!"

"Report——"

"General, Jintang Village was also attacked and reduced to ruins!"

Within one day, three camps were captured.

Seeing that group of Tian Ce soldiers going in and out, reporting the news, looking very busy, but not setting out to suppress the bandits, the assembled heroes of the martial arts world were all numb.

Please, fellow masters and uncles, we are here to suppress the bandits, not to watch a show!

Now one third of the Twelve Linked Docks have been destroyed by the mysterious person. If we don't set off soon, Gong Ao's head might be hung at the gate of Baidi City tomorrow.

So why did we travel all the way to Qutang Gorge?
Is it just to watch a few fires?

The heroes were full of complaints and dissatisfaction, but Yang Ning felt overwhelmed.

Indeed, the water fort was destroyed and the water bandits were eliminated, which is a good thing.

But afterwards, with the mountains all on fire and the land devastated, wouldn't they have to deal with the many people living there?
In fact, contrary to what the heroes in the martial arts world thought, the Tiance soldiers had already set out into action.

They divided into teams of a hundred people and searched back and forth on both sides of the Qu Tang Gorge along the land route, and actually captured quite a few of the fish that had escaped the net in the water forts.

At the same time, they also found many rescued civilians and chivalrous men who had fallen into the hands of the enemy after trying to help others.

With the help of this group of Tiance soldiers and chivalrous men, the rescued people have been properly resettled and the captured bandits have been imprisoned.

When it comes to leading troops in battle, Yang Ning is unmatched in the Tian Ce Army, but when it comes to post-war resettlement, he is still far behind, so he was busy all day dealing with the aftermath of those water forts.

Of course, during this period, the leaders of the other sects were also busy.

Led by Guo Yan, the leaders of a group of martial arts sects not only drew up a night attack plan, but also prepared the ships, sulfur, kerosene and other items needed for the operation.

Finally, at nightfall, the heroes began to take action.

Hundreds of people marched towards the nearest water fort.

The words are divided into two parts.

Lu Ping was walking towards the fourth water fort.

In the past few days, Lu Ping has actually been paying close attention to the developments of the Tang Daily, so he naturally saw Gong Ao's reply and knew his attitude towards his threats.

Since Gong Ao had no intention of repenting and was unwilling to cooperate, he naturally didn't bother to waste time talking.

Lu Ping believed that his success in breaking through three strongholds was not only known to the assembled heroes, but Gong Ao in Baidi City must have also received the news.

"I don't know what his mood is now..."

Muttering to himself, Lu Ping finally arrived at his last goal of the day - Wanling Village.

However, just as he took out the Lion-Head Sword and was about to repeat his old trick, leap into the sky, and then use a complete set of Crazy Dragon Eight Slashes on the water fort in front of him, a noisy sound of footsteps suddenly came from the forest in the distance.

Feeling the movement behind him, Lu Ping immediately stopped and turned to look.

The next moment, several masked figures in black jumped out of the forest.

"who……"

As soon as the other party opened his mouth, Lu Ping realized something was wrong.

Because they spoke Japanese instead of Chinese, and combined with their concealed attire, it can be basically confirmed that they are samurai or ninjas.

Not only that, each of these people had injuries on their bodies, and their auras were mixed and chaotic, and it was obvious that they were being chased by someone.

"Hmm...why are there Japanese people here?"

Lu Ping's first reaction was for Gong Ao to unite with the Japanese warriors, but the plan was leaked, and as a result, this group of Japanese warriors were hunted down by chivalrous men.

While he was thinking, the group of Japanese warriors had already rushed towards Lu Ping, shouting words like "get out of here".

Just as Lu Ping thought, these people are now being hunted by someone and are seriously injured. They are like trapped beasts. In order to survive, they will not miss any chance.

At this moment, they saw that Lu Ping was alone and so young, so they wanted to rely on their numbers to fight their way out.

Seeing four or five Japanese warriors attacking from different directions, Lu Ping was about to take action to repel the enemies, but he heard a whistling sound in the distance.

The next moment, a sharp blade came through the air.

"what--!!"

The sword energy is sharp and unstoppable, cutting through the enemies.

Amid screams, several Japanese warriors were severely injured and thrown several meters away, falling heavily to the ground, vomiting blood and fainting. The sword energy was not yet exhausted, and it directly chopped several large trees behind it that were several people hugged in half. The violent movement could be heard for several miles, disturbing a lot of birds.

Tread...  

A steady sound of footsteps came from the woods.

Lu Ping looked in the direction of the voice and saw a swordsman in his sixties with white hair and beard, dressed in black and with a sharp gaze.

“What a master!”

Judging from the aura of the other party, one can tell that this person has extraordinary martial arts skills, even better than Dongfang Yuxuan. It seems that the sword energy that just repelled the enemy was emitted by him.

"A swordsman of this level... is he from Tyrant Blade Villa or the Blade Sect?"

The man walked up to Lu Ping, sheathed his sword, and asked softly, "Are you okay, little brother?"

"I'm fine, thank you for your help, senior."

Lu Ping shook his head and then looked at the unconscious Japanese warriors: "Are they Japanese? Were you chasing them just now?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

The swordsman said calmly, "Because they are Fujiwara Hirotsugu's subordinates, and they intend to commit more evil deeds against the Tang Dynasty, so I am hunting them down."

"Fujiwara Hirotsugu..."

Seeing that Lu Ping seemed to be confused, the swordsman explained, "He is an ambitious man from Japan."

"This man has committed many evil deeds. He once attacked the Tang Dynasty martial arts world several years ago, attempting to gather martial arts from various sects, build a force that obeys his orders, and consolidate his position and regime in Japan."

"Now that he has set foot in the Tang Dynasty again, I am afraid that trouble will arise again."

"After I got the news, I tracked the spies he sent out all the way to here."

Lu Ping probably understood: "Are these the spies you are talking about?"

The swordsman shook his head: "Japanese spies have always acted in secret, and these people should be just one of them."

As he said that, he walked to the bodies of the Japanese killers and began to touch and search them. After a long while, he finally took out a scroll that looked like a mission order from one of them.

Lu Ping leaned forward and took a look. He saw that the text was in Japanese. He could only understand a few Chinese characters. He was blind to the rest. He had no choice but to ask, "What does it say?"

The swordsman hesitated for a few seconds and replied, "It is a joint plan of Fujiwara Hirotsugu and the Twelve Linked Docks."

"what's the plan?"

"First spread the news that the Twelve Linked Docks massacred the people around them, attracting disciples from various sects to come to the rescue, and then capture them all in one fell swoop, and then use those disciples to steal the skills of various sects..."

Isn't that the same as how Zhao Min imprisoned the six major sects?

Lu Ping frowned: "Have the Twelve Linked Docks and Japan joined forces? When did that happen?"

"A month ago."

A month ago, the disciples of Wanhua Valley heard that the Twelve Linked Valley was doing evil and set out to support them.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the swordsman with a serious expression on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "I remember that about a month ago, the news that the Twelve Linked Docks were doing evil again suddenly spread in the martial arts world."

"At that time, many righteous men from the Jianghu came here to help. Several disciples from my Sword Sect also came to help, but we lost contact with them afterwards."

Just like those disciples in Wanhua Valley...

Doesn’t this mean that the group of disciples whose whereabouts are unknown are now very likely in Fujiwara Hirotsugu’s hands?

No wonder only a group of ordinary people and a few wandering cultivators were captured in the water forts that he had destroyed, but no disciples from any major sects.

I originally thought that I was just unlucky and didn't run into them, but now I think about it, maybe they had already been transferred to other places!

"I didn't expect Fujiwara Hirotsugu and Gong Ao to have such a conspiracy..."

The swordsman pondered for a few seconds, then sent a request to Lu Ping: "I heard that various sects have gathered nearby with the intention of conquering Baidi City. Can you please go and tell them about this?"

Want me to run errands?
"how about you?"

"I plan to go directly to Baidi City to find out the whereabouts of those captured heroes!"

So brave!

Lu Ping secretly praised in his heart, but said: "I don't underestimate you, but breaking into Baidi City alone... Even if you are Xie Yunliu, how can you face the power of the Shangshui Treasure Book?"

The swordsman stood up and his aura suddenly changed.

"Since you know that I am Xie Yunliu, you should also know that I, a disciple of the Sword Sect, am best at..."

"Sword cuts the waves!"
