April 12, the tenth year of the Xuanli calendar.
Fu Xiaoguan and his party set off for Baocheng County, and the Divine Sword Brigade 3 led by Su Mo arrived at Huangyangji.
Senior Brother Su Jue wandered around Wenshan for two days, found Yu Le's main force, figured out all the deployments of Yu Le's troops, and returned to Huangyangji.
"Yu Le has gathered 100,000 Black Guards in Wenshan, hiding in Wenshan..." Su Jue carefully examined the map of Jiannan East Road. "They're hiding here, in Lengyan Valley. There are six secret outposts on each side of the mountains, and ten patrol teams, each with about a hundred men. Their patrol route goes around the mountainside on both sides of Lengyan Valley, and the patrol interval is one hour."
He paused, tapped the map, and continued, "Leaving Huangyangji, you enter the Min Mountains. The road ahead is about a hundred miles long, wide enough for two carriages to travel side by side. When you reach Huanlangtian, the main road ends. Ahead is the famous Minshan Plank Road, only three feet wide, built on a steep cliff. Below is a bottomless abyss."
"The Minshan Plank Road around Langtian is approximately 150 miles long. Coming here... the Full Moon Bridge, there's another wide dirt road. Going straight from the Full Moon Bridge leads to the Wenshui River, and Zuo Zhuan enters Wenshan.
About thirty miles into the mountains is Lengyan Valley. I suspect Yu Le has scouts at Huanlangtian, Manyue Bridge, and even right here in Huangyangji, so we're pretty much exposed now."
Su Mo listened very carefully. He did not take the exposure seriously. After all, with a team of nearly 3,000 people, the enemy would eventually notice it if they were determined.
"Can we cross Tianque Mountain from Huanlangtian and directly enter the western part of Wenshan?"
"...It's a bit difficult," Su Jue frowned and pondered for a moment, "Between Tianque Mountain and Wen Mountain, there's the Luanyun Gorge, which is a hundred feet wide. Unless we can drag a rope across and let them slide across."
"Big Brother, there are ropes, and they can slide over, but... can you fly over?"
Su Jue straightened his hat and looked at Su Mo seriously, "Eighth Junior Brother, I, your senior brother, am a Saint!"
"..." Su Mo suddenly laughed, "Then let's all take a rest. We'll set off in an hour!"
"Hold on."
"What else, Big Brother?"
"There's a group of rats in this boxwood collection."
…
…
There is another army in Huangyangji.
They were the personal guards of the Fourth Prince Yu Wenshu, also numbering 3,000 people. They did not gather in one place, but were scattered across the various inns in Huangyangji, causing the inns in Huangyangji to be overcrowded.
The leader of this personal guard was named Pan Yuelou, who was the captain of the guard when Yu Wenshu was in the capital. After Yu Wenshu was conferred the title of Prince Jin, he naturally followed Yu Wenshu to Xirong.
At this moment, he was in the Mingyue Inn, and his two deputy generals were in the room.
The expressions of the three people were extremely serious, and the atmosphere here seemed a bit solemn.
"The general's entire army was wiped out, and your highness's life or death is uncertain. I dare to ask the general, should we go or stay now?" The left deputy general asked with a bow.
"General, the ones coming are the Third Brigade of the Divine Sword. They are definitely going to enter Minshan to wipe out the Moon Worship Cult. I think... the situation is hopeless, so why not go our separate ways?" The right deputy general also bowed and said this.
Pan Yuelou looked out the window. Outside the window stood a forest of boxwood trees. The boxwood trees were already in bloom, which was not beautiful.
"The people we sent out still haven't received any news from His Highness?"
"General, we have sent out ten scouts from Qipan Pass to Jianmen and then to Jiannan, but we have not received any news from His Highness yet."
"General, Your Highness was guarding Qipan Pass at the time, and Peng Yuyan led 3,000 men to capture Qipan Pass. Could Your Highness... have been captured by them?"
Pan Yuelou frowned and shook his head. "I haven't heard any news about them escorting His Highness back to the capital, so He must not have been captured. I also haven't heard them say they beheaded His Highness, so He must be alive now! But because of His Highness's crimes... I'm afraid his life will be difficult."
Pan Yuelou turned around and looked at his two lieutenants with authority. "Send out more scouts, paying special attention to wanderers in various places, and also pay special attention to searching in remote areas. Remember, Your Highness and I are on the same boat. We rise and fall together."
Don't have any second thoughts, unless... His Highness dies!"
"I obey your command!"
The two deputy generals retreated, and Pan Yuelou frowned deeply.
The Divine Sword Army entered Minshan... This old nest was wiped out by the Divine Sword Army. Even if His Highness was alive, where else could he go?
Just when he was feeling uneasy, he suddenly heard a wailing coming from downstairs. His heart suddenly tightened and he grabbed the long sword beside him. He heard a "bang..." and his door was knocked open. Without any hesitation, he chopped at the door with his sword. With a click, his sword cut the flying person into two pieces, but he suddenly frowned - this sword killed his left deputy general!
At this moment, another body flew over. He looked closely, turned his body to the side, raised his knife and chopped towards the door again.
"boom……!"
He chopped the door into pieces with his sword, and the broken pieces flew everywhere. Then he saw a man walking out from the flying pieces.
The man wore a tall crown and had a hideous scar on his face. He was about two feet away from him, and before he could retract his knife, the man had already reached him. Then he saw the man stretched out a hand, with only one finger extended.
The finger landed on his chest, and he suddenly felt a huge force hitting his chest like a hammer. His body suddenly retreated, spitting out a mouthful of blood, broke through the wall of the inn, and floated towards the boxwood forest outside the wall.
The entire Huangyangji was in an uproar at this moment.
The tragic wails resounded through the sky, and many people in the inns ran away in panic. The proprietress of Mingyue Inn opened her mouth and eyes wide, and forgot to breathe.
She saw a group of people rushing in, and then saw another group of people trying to rush out. Their bodies were still running desperately, but their heads were flying in the air.
Blood was all over the ground and the walls!
He killed those who came silently, and with the movement of his sword, there were corpses all over the ground.
Then they retreated and stood on the street of Huangyangji.
Then the proprietress saw the same story happening in the inn opposite.
God damn, where did this bandit come from? He's so ferocious!
Huangyangji was in chaos. The wailing gradually faded away, but the smell of blood filled the air.
There were strong men fighting in the air, with swords flashing and swords full of intent. Then there was a "bang..." sound of a gunshot, and a man fell from the sky, dying with his eyes open.
Then there were several more gunshots, the sound of gunfire echoed, and Huangyangji gradually became quiet.
In just the time it takes for a stick of incense to stick, none of Yu Wenshu's three thousand personal guards and twelve masters survived, except for the scouts he sent out.
On the street, nearly three thousand cold-blooded soldiers stood in awe.
There was still blood dripping from their knives, and the massacre just now was as if it were just a few chickens.
The proprietress swallowed her saliva and quickly looked away, feeling that the murderous aura from those people was sharper than a knife!
