Chapter 998: A Happy Death Fang Jie came back from the camp inspection and ate something hastily, and then the army was ready to continue marching. After the Qin River passed, there were no more dangerous places in Gyeonggi Road, and No matter how many more battles Gao Kaitai has to fight, the Black Flag Army has never been afraid of this kind of direct confrontation on the plains. Hundreds of thousands of troops marched out again, troubled by trivial matters. Fang Jie also needs to take into account Chen Dingnan¡¯s team on the West Road, and the progress of the hundreds of thousands of horses must also be controlled. We must take into account the situation in Eastern Xinjiang. A hundred thousand troops have already rushed to help. This battle is beyond Fang Jie's control, so it makes people feel even more uneasy. Fang Jie knew that Mu Guangling had real abilities. He had led troops for many years and was a real handsome man. But the current conflicts in Eastern Xinjiang are not just between Han people and foreigners, there are also many shady things behind the scenes. Those 100,000 people arrived in Eastern Xinjiang, far away from their foundation. Even if there is help from people with good knowledge all over the world, going deep alone is a taboo for military strategists. "Sanjinhou is back." Xiang Qingniu came in from outside and said, "I just met the person sent by Sanjinhou to report the news, so I came with him" A man with a good reputation in the world came from behind Xiang Qingniu. He came in, met Fang Jie, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "My lord, the Marquis ordered me to come back first and ask my lord and Taoist Master to prepare. I'm afraid the Northern Expedition will be delayed for a while, and it's not peaceful at home Master Hou said that when the master is ready, we will leave together. This matter is urgent!" Fang Jie's expression changed and he stood up suddenly: "What do you mean?" The man quickly explained: "This These were the words of the Marquis, and Bei Zhi didn¡¯t know exactly what happened. The two of them had just met and said a few words, and then the Marquis rushed back with his people. It looked very strange. Urgent. Mr. Hou said that he would contact the people at Huotong Tianxia Branch to arrange the writing and asked me to rush back to report to the Lord." Fang Jie felt his heart twisting and turned to look at Xiang Qingniu: "This matter must be urgent. , I would not have been allowed to leave the camp if it were not for a major event. Now is the critical time for the Northern Expedition. The delay in my leaving the camp for the Northern Expedition would be small, and I might even be defeated! He couldn't not take this into consideration, so You go back and clean up first, and we can leave when Sanjinhou comes back." "Okay!" Xiang Qingniu strode out: "Do you want me to leave the old men I brought from Yiqiguan?" "Yes!" Fang Jie nodded: "Except for you and me, everyone must stay in the camp." Fang Jie raised his sword and walked outside the tent to say hello. He saw the white lion playing by himself in the distance. Chaos then flew over. The spiritual white lion stopped playing when he saw Fang Jie's serious face, and glanced at Fang Jie's face from time to time. Fang Jie jumped on the back of the white lion and asked clearly which way the Sanjinhou sent the message. After Sanjinhou came back, Fang Jie urged the white lion to rush out. The white lion turned into a stream of light and rushed out of the camp in an instant. After less than half an hour of rushing towards the direction Sanjin Hou came back from, Fang Jie picked up Wu Yiyi and the sect leader named Liu. "What happened?" Fang Jie asked. Wu Daodao pointed at the sect leader surnamed Liu and said: "He knows some very important information. Although it is not certain, it is of great importance, so I brought him back to you immediately." "I have met Mr. Liu." That Liu The sect leader named Fang Jie didn't expect that Fang Jie was so young. He was stunned for a moment and then saluted quickly. Fang Jie didn't have the mood to pay attention to this at this time. He helped him up and asked, "What's going on?" "That's it" After sorting out his thoughts, the sect leader Liu said as simply as possible: "We We received a mission from the superiors before, and were responsible for finding a boat to transport an important person across the river. We didn't know where he came from, and we weren't allowed to ask about the things the superiors told us. We were on the Yangtze River that we crossed about half a month ago. I went to Huangyang Road, and I was found by the Marquis just two days after I came back. The man who sent him was called Mr. Qi. From listening to their conversation, it seemed that they were going to the Zhuque Mountain Camp on Huangyang Road. , I didn¡¯t dare to eavesdrop, but Mr. Seven didn¡¯t care about anything. He said that this errand was not interesting at all. He was going to catch a woman and a child I heard that the person named Fang had good cultivation, so it would be better to kill him directly. It's so refreshing." When Fang Jie heard this, his face instantly turned pale. "The affairs of the camp are left to the Marquis." Fang Jie turned over and jumped on the white lion and said: "There is no need to continue to advance, retreat slowly." Wu Dao said eagerly: "Wait for the Taoist Master to leave together!" "He will stay too. , those people just forced me to go back. If I took both of you away, I would have fallen into their scheme."You two are in the army, so they don't dare to make mistakes!" " Fang Jie's voice came from a distance: "Hundreds of thousands of troops have been handed over to the Marquis. If you can fight, fight or if you can't, retreat. Ask Xiang Qingniu to send people to the northwest to invite Xiao Yijiu back! " When the voice disappeared, Fang Jie's figure had also disappeared. Linghua Town is not far from the Black Flag Army camp. If you hurry up, you can get there in less than half a day. Gao Kaitai once arranged it here. The checkpoints have now been withdrawn. Zheng Ziyu was defeated, and the soldiers who were left guarding the checkpoints were just in vain. The town was empty. Occasionally, an ownerless wild dog passed by a yard. He suddenly turned around and ran away as if he was frightened, making a horrified cry. After bidding farewell to Wu Dao, the sect leader named Liu returned with several of his disciples and arrived at Linghua Town. Outside, he looked at the sky and then ordered: "It's getting dark. We'll just stay here tonight and rush back early tomorrow morning. "Master" A young man who looked to be in his twenties asked him: "Why are we in a hurry to go back?" The so-called Sanjinhou asked us to rest in the camp for a few days before leaving. I haven't seen what the military camp is like yet. That place has delicious food and drink, why would you come out to stay in this damn place for one night? " "You know nothing! " The sect leader surnamed Liu glared at his disciple: "Sigh I shouldn't have come this time. If I hadn't received such great kindness from San Jinhou, I wouldn't want to offend those people. You are still young and don¡¯t know the dangers of the world. Who is Sanjinhou? Even in troubled times, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has all the power in the world. Who is Fang Jie? The most powerful force in the entire Central Plains is now none other than him, and his millions of troops are unbeatable. We cannot offend these two people. Butwe can't afford to offend the people on that side. If we live in the Black Flag Army's camp, there's no guarantee that the news won't spread. Then the people on that side can easily guess that we leaked the news to them. In Sanjinhou, you don¡¯t know how cruel those people are, but I know Since neither party can afford to offend them, it¡¯s better to go back and avoid them. " He sighed heavily: "Not only can't we stay in the Black Flag Army, we also have to move immediately after we return. Although Marquis Sanjin has good intentions, he allows all our sects to join the Black Flag Army and work. But until this matter comes to an end, I dare not meet with them again. It's better to find a place to hide. When this matter is over, it won't be too late for us to join the Black Flag Army. I have saved some money over the years, which is enough for us men to find a place to be happy for a while. " "What a pity" His disciple shook his head and said: "If you can wear a suit of armor and lead soldiers in battle, think about it, it will be majestic! " " What a shame! " The sect leader surnamed Liu scolded: "You have to have a life to dream, so it's more important to save your life first! " "You are smart. " These words were not said by his disciple, but floated out from the small courtyard. Although the voice was smiling, the chill in it was even stronger, so strong that people couldn't help but shiver after hearing it. "Who? ! "The sect leader surnamed Liu suddenly turned around and looked towards the courtyard gate. His disciples also took out their weapons one after another. "They all call me Master Wu, you can also call me Mr. Wu. " A man wearing a moon-white Confucian shirt walked slowly out of the courtyard, with his hands behind his back. He looked about thirty years old, but his temples were already white. This man looked very kind. , but as long as you look into his eyes, you will notice the coldness behind the kindness. "I don't know you, what are you doing here!" "The sect leader surnamed Liu asked warily. "Waiting for you, and then thank you. "The man who called himself Mr. Wu smiled and his tone was very gentle. "Thank me? no need thank me? "The sect leader surnamed Liu asked. "If it weren't for you, Fang Jie wouldn't have left the Black Flag Army camp so quickly. Without a coach, how can the Black Flag Army fight this war? It would be better if he took away Wu Yiyi and that Taoist priest. Then there won¡¯t even be a decent practitioner in the camp. Aren¡¯t those generals at my mercy? " He chuckled, a little coyly, and his eyes were a little flattering. The head of the sect named Liu was startled and took a few steps back: "You are following me! " "Yes, but Wu Daodao's cultivation is quite good, so he didn't get too close. Mr. Wu sighed: "Come on, tell me what you said?" " The sect leader surnamed Liu said while retreating: "I warn you not to act recklessly. I have not been able to get away with it by bluffing people in the world for so many years??Moreover, neither Sanjin Hou nor Dao Zun has left the camp. As long as you dare to mess around, I guarantee that you will die miserably! " "The two of them didn't leave together? That's such a pity" Mr. Wu's face was full of disappointment, but he soon laughed again: "But it doesn't matter, it's enough for Fang Jie to leave the camp. Master Qi is waiting for him in the south. Nothing good ends. Let me tell you it's much more painful to fall into Master Qi's hands than to fall into my hands. That guy likes to make things crawl around in people's bodies like disgusting insects. Although I like drilling and being drilled, that kind of drilling is too disgusting. In any case, you have done a great job by letting Fang Jie be alone. So I'm going to give you a rewardwhat should I reward you with? " He seemed to think for a moment, then squinted his eyes and glanced at the sect master named Liu teasingly: "How about I give you a happy death? I guarantee you have never experienced how happy this is, so happy that you won¡¯t even know it until you die. "
