Chapter 297 The Marquis of Chengyang rebels and the Heavenly Master descends from the mountain

Yunzhou, Tianyuguan.

As the center of the battlefield in Yunzhou, Tianyuguan has experienced nearly three years of war and has become lifeless from the most powerful pass in Yunzhou. The mottled city walls have turned a little red and filled with lifeless energy.

When the wind and sand blow outside the city, you can always faintly see white bones looming from time to time. When the wind blows up at night, it howls and shrills, and I don’t know how many dead souls are wailing.

On the city wall, torches stand.

There was no expression on the faces of the patrolling soldiers coming and going in groups, and some were just indifferent and confused.

And the city was as deserted as a dead city.

In the Chinese military camp,

Chengyang Hou Linghao was standing in front of a map.

His armor was stained with blood, his hair was a bit messy, with strands of white hair faintly interspersed, and his dark face was very rough.

"Yunxi, Gu Zhan, Qin You!"

Ling Hao sighed softly, turned around and sat down.

There was a piece of information on the table in front of him, and the word "Gu Zhan" came into view.

Ling Hao looked at those two words and was in a daze. He was in a trance for a moment.

He remembered the first time he heard the name,

Still in the winter of the fifth year of Qingli,

At that time, what he heard was that an unscrupulous little person dared to kill his son. He was just a little person who he could easily crush to death and didn't care about at all.

However, since last year,

This name kept coming to his ears,

By this time, he had become the number one master in the world.

"What kind of inheritance did this kid get? He should have been killed at all costs at the beginning, but I didn't expect that a mistake in his mind would lead to such trouble!"

Ling Hao frowned as he looked at the information.

At this moment, an old man in brown robes appeared in the camp and said with a chuckle: "Master Marquis, don't you think this man has created a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you?"

Ling Hao raised his head and glanced at the old man, and said coldly: "You, the White Lotus Sect, are really getting more and more presumptuous. This is the camp of the three armies, how dare you show up so openly!"

This old man is Xu Qingping, the East Protector of the White Lotus Sect, one of the four great protectors of the southeast, northwest, and has a good reputation in the world. He is a top master who has been famous for many years.

Xu Qingping chuckled lightly, cupped his hands and said: "Master Hou, you have received the information. Qin You has secretly led the elite of Qin Tianjian to Yunxi. Now in Yundong, any troubles are under your control.

, what’s there to worry about?”

Ling Hao said in a deep voice: "Qin You, this old guy, is not simple. Don't underestimate him."

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis," Xu Qingping said softly: "The turmoil in Yunxi is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Qin Tianjian. Qin You can't refuse it. We have received the exact news over there. Qin You and Yang Ge

He first brought a dozen grand masters there, and as Gu Zhan shocked the world with his battle, Qin You directly secretly mobilized 70% of the elite troops of Qin Tianjian and rushed over, and now he is very happy!"

Ling Hao took a deep breath and said, "You still need to be more vigilant."

"Master Hou," Xu Qingping cupped his hands and said, "In order to cooperate with you, I, the White Lotus Sect, hid it from the Qintian Prison and the imperial court, but I have been fighting with you for almost three years. Now that the opportunity has come, you can't hesitate.

, once an opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to come back again.

Lord Marquis, this kind of opportunity is really rare. Who would have thought that Gu Zhan could be so powerful. Qin You was also caught off guard. Otherwise, he would not have transferred people there in such a hurry. Now, it is Yun

When the state is most empty.

You only need to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Liuhou, and then instigate a mutiny. Then you can openly join forces with our White Lotus Sect and quickly capture Yunzhou. On the other side of Qingzhou and Liangzhou, there are Dugu Clan and Lingzhou.

With the help of each other, in three months at most, you can sweep across the three states, Lord Marquis, I am not sure at this time, but when?"

Ling Hao frowned and pondered for a long time, then said: "I will go back and inform you goddesses first. Be prepared and tell you when to act. I will inform you when the time comes."

Xu Qingping didn't say anything more, he cupped his hands and said: "I'll excuse you!"

Wait until Xu Qingping leaves.

A scribe came out from behind the screen and said with a chuckle: "Master Hou, although the White Lotus Sect has always been unorganized and very impatient, this time is indeed, as they said, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Ling Hao whispered: "Did you find out everything?"

The scribe nodded and said: "There is no problem. Qin You has indeed always been on guard against you, Lord Marquis. However, the turmoil in Yunxi this time was indeed caught off guard, and Qin You was a little confused."

"Where's Yang Yunzhi?" Ling Hao asked.

"Still in Linjiang City," the scribe said: "Yunxi has always been a worry for Qin Tianjian, and the White Lotus Sect has been unable to win. Qin You has always wanted to use Yunxi to restrict the White Lotus Sect, so this time, he

It was inevitable that we would win, so the Qintian Supervisor did not make any move on the surface, but in fact, it secretly mobilized most of the elites."

Ling Hao whispered: "This time is indeed our best chance, and it is also our last chance. The imperial court has begun to mobilize troops, and now Gu Zhan has been given the status of the general of the Zhuzi Army. Yun

Once the West is pacified, troops will definitely be raised to encircle and suppress the White Lotus Sect."

The scribe nodded and said: "That's true. We still have to act now, but we are 90% sure of doing it now."

"What happened to Qingzhou and Liangzhou?" Ling Hao asked.

"It has been prepared for a long time," the scribe said: "On the Liangzhou side, the Dugu Clan controls the Yongchang County King, while on the Qingzhou side, Qingzhou Mu Lingxu'an has secretly controlled the Qingzhou government, and the military has also been dispersed.

As long as you, Lord Marquis, take action, they will respond immediately. Just as Xu Qingping said, as long as we control Yunzhou quickly, the other two states can be brought to peace within three months at most!"

Ling Hao pondered for a long time and said, "One last test."

"How to do it?" the scribe asked doubtfully.

"Liu Hou," Ling Hao said coldly: "Let the White Lotus Sect take action. If there is no fraud, Liu Hou will definitely die. If Liu Hou escapes, it means there is fraud. Stop all actions immediately!"

The scribe thought for a moment and said, "The Marquis is still thoughtful."

…

Yunxi is experiencing constant turmoil.

The Battle of Yucheng shocked the world and attracted countless attention. During this period of time, many people from the Jianghu appeared in the land of Yunxi, and top forces from all over the Xia Kingdom came quietly.

They all came for Gu Zhan.

On the surface, all the top forces deny that Gu Zhan has become a land god, but secretly, they are all speculating that Gu Zhan may have mastered a new method of cultivation. Similarly, some people want to find out what Gu Zhan has achieved.

What inheritance.

Gu Zhan’s life experience,

After the Battle of Yucheng, all parties were immediately investigated. Without exception, they could only find out that Gu Zhan was an ordinary person who was not proficient in martial arts before the fourth year of Qingli. But in the winter of the fourth year of Qingli

One day, his temperament suddenly changed. From an ordinary person who was not familiar with martial arts, he became a decisive genius, and his rise was so fast that it was unbelievable.

The various forces that have come to Yunxi now have two purposes. One is to explore whether Gu Zhan has really mastered the new practice method, and the other is to explore the secret inheritance of Gu Zhan's rise.

Of course, these movements

Naturally, he couldn't hide it from Gu Zhan, but Gu Zhan had no time to care about these things. He had been busy leading his troops to seize territory during this period.

Now, after his identity as Marquis of Yun and the General of the Zhenjun was exposed, he simply started acting in this identity. He transferred some people from the Beidou Gang to form an army, and then while recruiting the army, he expanded to various parts of Yunxi.

With Rong Yichu in charge of internal affairs and Nangong Weiyang in charge of leading the troops, Gu Zhan didn't need to think too much and could just expand according to the planned march route.

As for the situation in Yunxi, as Rong Yichu expected, there was no obstruction at all. After the battle in Yucheng, all the forces in Yunxi retreated to Jianwang City, and the reaction of Jianwang City was not surprising.

Unexpectedly, it continued to shrink its sphere of influence and even began to close mountains.

And the current situation is,

The Demonic Way and the Beidou Gang competed for territory from two directions, and there was a tacit understanding without any conflict. Even if there was a little friction, the Demonic Way decisively gave in and showed restraint, guarding against the appearance of two tigers fighting each other. Sword King City sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight.

Case.

However, amidst this turmoil,

In Yunzhou, a major event that shocked the world once again broke out, causing the world's attention to instantly shift away from Yunxi.

Because compared to the turmoil in Yunxi,

What happened in Yunzhou this time is the real national unrest——

Linghao, the Marquis of Chengyang, rebelled!

…

In a manor in Yiling City, Zhongwu Road, Yunxi Province.

Gu Zhan, Rong Yichu and Nangong Weiyang were sitting and drinking tea.

Rong Yichu fiddled with the small stove and cooked tea, and said with a chuckle: "Although I have known for a long time that the Marquis of Chengyang was going to rebel, I didn't expect it to be so fast. However, if I think about it carefully, the reason why it was so fast was because of my lord's recommendation.

A lot of effort."

Nangong Weiyang asked in confusion: "Why do you say that?"

Rong Yichu scooped a spoonful of tea for Gu Zhan, then scooped tea for Nangong Weiyang, and said: "Because my lord is now the Marquis of Yun and the general of the army, suppressing Yunxi will inevitably form an army, no matter how strong the army is."

Even if they are weak, they can detour from Shiwanda Mountain to the north and pose a threat to the White Lotus Sect.
