Chapter two hundred and seventy seventh practitioners on the bank of the river
/p> When the man in black night clothes left, Chen Jinru did not give any positive answer.
In a sense, he was able to talk about things on behalf of the Chen family and even decide most things.
It’s just that there are some things that are too important, and of course he needs Chen Baowan’s father Chen Zhonggong’s decision.
A little later, a flying eagle fell into the camp.
A waiting practitioner took off the brass tube from the eagle's feet and handed it to his hands.
Chen Jinru took out the secret paper from the brass tube and used the moonlight to see the secret text as thin as an ant's feet.
A shocked light appeared in his eyes.
The message conveyed from this secret note was even more shocking than the previous message that the emperor decided to make Xiao Hong the marshal of the Northern Emperor.
For him, the powerful ministers under Linchuan King Xiao Hong, including the second Mr. Xiao Jin, are only worthy of attention, but they cannot make him feel that they are opponents who meet or are stronger than him.
The real terror of the Xiao family is that the emperor trusts and tolerates the Xiao family too much.
If one day the emperor's attitude towards the Xiao family completely changes, it will take him little time to completely defeat the Xiao family.
Among all the opponents in the world, the Demon Sect of the Northern Wei Dynasty was the one who was most unseen and afraid of.
In a sense, the Demon Sect of the Northern Wei Dynasty was a predecessor whom he needed to learn and surpass.
In his opinion, this battle was originally a contest between several people like him in the Southern Dynasty, the Demon Sect and the Princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
He believes that he still has a great disadvantage compared to the Demon Sect.
The Demon Sect had many fanatical followers throughout the Northern Wei Dynasty, and he could only make every effort to plan in the Southern Dynasties and had to win the secret battle with the Xiao family and other clans before he could complete some of the strategic intentions he wanted to achieve.
But he didn't expect that in Meishan, he would pass by this terrible opponent.
Because according to the secret note, the Demon Sect has been to Meishan and has stayed in Meishan for a long time.
He could not imagine what kind of impact it would have on the entire course of the war if he and the practitioners he led happened to kill the Demon Sect. The question he must consider now is what the Demon Sect did when entering Meishan.
If you don’t know what your opponent has done, it’s impossible to understand the opponent’s long-term intention.
Moreover, the secret note shows that after entering Meishan, the Demon Sect had no contact with the people of the Northern Wei Princess.
Chen Jinru's eyebrows were ashamed of prison. In his opinion, this was a more important issue than Xiao Hong's matter.
......
"Stop their backs and don't let them run away!"
"Don't let them cross the river! Kill them all!"
The reason why people have doubts and confusion is that they cannot be as high as the sun, moon and stars, and can see everything that happens in the world, no matter how big or small. At this time, when he was thinking deeply that his eyebrows were locked and unable to let go, a fierce battle was going on in a suburb of Fuyu County, which is less than a hundred miles away from Taigu County.
In the dark night, there were constant shouts of roars, the sound of arrows roaring and the sound of metal and screams of terrifying sounds.
When the war between the Northern Wei and the Southern Dynasties became more and more intense, some bandits and bandits who were originally like rats crossing the street also had room for survival.
When the Zhenwu Army was drawn away in many places, the horse thieves that had long disappeared in many parts of the Southern Dynasty also began to show signs of revival.
There are sometimes wonderful connections like fate between all things, and at this time the party participating in the war is an iron army.
The number of this Tie Ce army was more than 200, and they were chasing horse thieves who had previously wandered around Guanghan County.
There were more than 300 horse thieves at the beginning, but except for a few who were bandits in Guanghan County, most of them were idle people who joined in the past few decades, and some were repeated offenders who were robbed from several prison cells during the process of robbery.
The combat effectiveness of these people is a mob compared to the most mediocre local army, not to mention the iron army that is more experienced and knows how to fight better than the local army.
This group of horse thieves were hunted down by this Tie Ce army for several days, and there were only more than one hundred left. In the previous battle, this group of Tie Ce army even killed most of the horses of these horse thieves, and even refused to let go of crossbow arrows.
Even so, both sides rely on foot strength, and the physical strength stimulated by the fear of death has been almost exhausted. When they fled to the suburbs of Fuyu County, most of them kept screaming in pain and despair. Their feet were covered with blood blisters and their muscles were twitching.
The life-saving straw in the eyes of these horse thieves is a river that looks particularly wide in the darkness.
Even though most people are not very good at water, in their opinion, even if they wander around the river, at least some people will be able to survive and will not be killed by these cat-and-mouse iron army.
At this moment when death is approaching, most people will feel that as long as they invest in that river, they may be survivors.
However, their intentions have been noticed in advance by this Tie Ce army. Dozens of Tie Ce troops have gone around the river with their physical strength far beyond them and intercepted their retreat in advance.
At this time, the reed marsh by the river was also ignited by Tie Ce's army, and the flames soaring into the sky began to illuminate, illuminating the desperate and fearful faces of these horse thieves.
Not far from the riverside here, there is also a village, which is only very small, with only five or six families.
The battle was fierce at this time, and the brave men who knew there was no way out of retreat among the horse thieves also began to want to pull some Tie Ce troops to accompany them on the road, so even the generals who commanded the Tie Ce army did not notice that these five or six families seemed too quiet at this time and had no change.
Amid the sound of killing and the firelight that was red for a long time, the five or six families still did not have any firelight, and there was not even a slight noise in the house.
The Tie Ce Army began to harvest.
Even though there are still some brave people among these horse thieves, this desperate struggle is too futile for them who still have enough energy.
More than ten Tie Ce Army soldiers were formed in a group, and with the fighting style they were best at, they were like sharp blades constantly cutting through the formation of these horse thieves.
No one noticed that a dark shadow quietly walked out of the five or six houses that were so quiet that they were almost strange.
This is a young practitioner.
He was also wearing Southern Dynasties clothing, but he smelled the strong bloody smell in the air, and his face began to be filled with a sense of fanaticism and greed. The true energy in his body was turbulent like many hungry wolves. This turbulence made the air outside him roar lowly.
A layer of vague black air then spread out from his skin.
The strange noise finally attracted the attention of some recent sergeants of the Iron Ce Army.
"Who!"
A soldier from Tie Ce army shouted loudly.
