Chapter 39 Conspiracy
Along the way, good news about the front army attacking the camp and decapitating the village was gradually passed back. Chen Qing, Jie Wenzhuo, and Lu Hongqian were all worried that the credit would be taken away by others. They fell behind and only gained the benefits of the ending, and urged the Left Guard generals to speed up.
Fortunately, the front army opened the way, and the left guard was not worried about being disturbed. Two days later, he caught up with the central army and the right guard and stationed in a simple stone village.
More than a thousand soldiers went deep into Yulong Mountain for more than 200 miles. Seven or eight bandit camps had been conquered, and they were burned together with the annihilated corpses of the rioters to avoid being used again.
The defenses of these seven or eight rioters and bandit camps are even simpler than those of Chenqiao camps. The front army annihilated some skinny old, weak and rioters. Although the other generals and soldiers were arrogant, they all felt that if they continued along the way, they could suppress the tens of thousands of people gathered in Yulong Mountain. They were worried that their march speed would be too slow and they would not be able to take much credit, and Chen Hai was even more nervous.
If the rioters got the news earlier and feared the strength of the sect soldiers and moved to the depths of Yulong Mountain, there would be no need to leave hundreds of old, weak, sick and disabled people to guard the outer villages; and just three or four months ago, more than 5,000 troops of the Yulong Mansion Army were defeated when they entered the suppression of Yulong Mountain, and a large number of soldiers and armors should be seized. Even if the rioters wanted to guard the outer villages, they should not be just simple weapons such as bamboo spears and bamboo bows.
In addition, although the sect soldiers conquered nearly ten bandit camps in succession, they annihilated less than 2,000 enemies, and they were far from hurting the muscles and bones of the rioters. More importantly, the rioters had previously defeated the Yulongcheng Mansion Army for 5,000 soldiers and horses, almost completely annihilated, and they were definitely not like a mob.
Of course, Shen Kun and Ge Tong could listen to Chen Hai's concerns and doubts, but when they were above Qi Siyu, the captain of Baiwu, they only regarded Chen Hai's doubts as jokes. In the eyes of Taoist disciples, the Yulongcheng Mansion Army was useless and was defeated by the rioters, which did not explain any problem at all.
*********************************
On a stone cliff where the Taoist soldiers entered the Shizhai, someone was shrouded in black robes, and they didn't feel the heat at all. Only two eyes were exposed, staring at the village dozens of miles away.
There was no dense shrubs on the stone cliff, but strangely, three heads soared in the sky, monitoring the spirit birds on both sides, but they did not find the existence of these two men in black robe.
"Master Jijiu is really a clever idea. These soldiers of the sects are too arrogant and do not notice at all. They just got into the pocket array set by Master Jijiu. This time we should be able to do a big fight..." A man in black robe lowered his voice and whispered.
"Unlike the corrupt sects and marquises in the mainland, the Martial Marquis of Wuwei, Dong Liang, has been in defensive in the past few years of his border control, and the Taiwei Sect has not completely fallen. The first time the Divine Cult is, we cannot allow us to be slackened at all. It is already a great achievement for us to mix the scattered spirit scattered by Lord Jijiu into the ground springs that these Taoist soldiers drank. Just leave the rest to the rebels gathered in Huanglongyuan to solve..." The man in black robe warned his companions not to have any trouble, turned around like a spirit bird, and slid silently into the valley behind the stone cliff.
The valley behind the stone cliff was originally a stone stream. During the drought, there was no flowing water, revealing the rocky beach on the riverbed.
There was a slender iron tube in a pile of pebbles that was extremely inconspicuous. A man in black robe squatted over and heard the sound of gurgling water coming from his iron tube. He took out a black pottery bottle from his arms, poured the entire bottle of slightly fishy medicine powder in.
Shixi is actually connected to the underground springs underground in Shizhai. The black-robed man had long expected that Taiweizong's main force of Taoist soldiers who were attacking Yulong Mountain would most likely choose to rest in this Shizhai after conquering several villages in succession. Now they only need to mix the potion of the true essence of the rebellion Xuanxiu Linghai through the hidden waterway connected to the underground springs of Shixi into the drinking water source of Taoist soldiers' disciples, and everything is ready...
