Chapter 17 The situation of the world!
The mountain road is far away.
A large number of Yellow Turban troops fled here in embarrassment, each with a pale face, panting, and suffered heavy losses.
Many people called their friends and cried, feeling extremely miserable.
Looking around, I saw that more than half of them had been lost, and most of the remaining people were injured.
"Damn it, the intelligence is wrong, how could such a monster appear under Xiong Youde's command!"
One of the lieutenants gritted his teeth and looked sad and angry.
"The four brothers of the Li family are dead, Wu Long is dead, and the third lord of Qinggang Zhang is also dead. Just dealing with one Xiong Youde caused so many of us to die tragically. How should I explain to the commander-in-chief!"
Another lieutenant shouted angrily.
Bai Yunlong, who was riding on the dragon horse at the front, looked extremely ugly, his hands were burning and the blood had not stopped yet.
"Don't worry, the Yellow Turban Army will not let him go. Although they did not destroy Xiong Youde this time, they also found out the secrets of Xiong Youde's camp. Sure enough, they discovered the Yangyan Mine here. Let's go and report the news to the commander-in-chief now! "
Bai Yunlong gritted his teeth and said: "With such a major secret, even the commander-in-chief will not punish us!"
"Yes, tell the commander in chief!"
"After the commander finds out, he will definitely lead the army over in person!"
"Let's go!"
A group of people took action again.
In the camp.
Large swathes of corpses were being lifted up and processed quickly.
As for some of the injured, they were all helped and bandaged with faces showing pain.
Xiong Youde's face was pale, and the dragon spear inserted in his left shoulder had been removed, but his heart still couldn't calm down.
Li Dao's strength improved too quickly.
Bai Yunlong is a master at the fifth level of foundation building. He uses the Zhen Qi system. His Zhen Qi is thick, unpredictable and extremely terrifying.
Was he defeated by Li Dao like this?
"What a good man! What a good man!"
Xiong Youde held back his shock and said, "Li Dao, are you injured?"
"I'm worried about you, General Lao. It's just some superficial injuries."
Li Dao shook his head, smeared herbal medicine on many parts of his body, and returned the pear blossom ax in his hand to Xiong Youde.
"Li Dao, when you saw that I was in trouble, didn't you think of taking the opportunity to escape?"
Xiong Youde couldn't help but ask.
To be honest, at that time, the bandit army was strong, and I, the general, was picked on the gun again. If it had been anyone else, I am afraid that they would have lost the will to fight and would have fled long ago.
But Li Dao didn't escape, but risked his life to save him?
"The general treats someone with great kindness, but is willing to abandon him? Don't mention this again!"
Li Dao said in a low voice.
"All right."
Xiong Youde was filled with gratitude, and his favorable impression of Li Dao skyrocketed again. He said, "By the way, I will write to the commander-in-chief to inform him of the situation here, and ask the commander-in-chief to help him forge armor and weapons."
Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he whispered: "Li Dao, do you know the secret of the back mountain of our camp?"
"What secret?"
Li Dao was confused.
Xiong Youde smiled bitterly and whispered: "To be honest, a very rare ore called Yangyan Stone was discovered in the back mountain of our camp.
This Yangyan Stone is an excellent material for refining Yangyan Pill. Yangyan Pill is of great help to those who practice the Zhenqi system. Taking one Yangyan Pill can save at least dozens of days. Penance. "
"oh?"
Li Dao showed a look of surprise and said, "So the Yellow Turban Army just came here for the Yang Yan Mine?"
"Yes, they must have discovered the existence of Yangyan Mine, so they launched a large-scale attack. However, the wave of people just now was just a small group of the Yellow Turban Army. They suffered a big loss here, and they will probably report it to the police soon. Their leader, we will be in big trouble then."
Xiong Youde whispered: "So for the current plan, I can only report to the commander-in-chief as soon as possible and let the commander-in-chief figure out a solution. I will write down your record just now. Even if the commander-in-chief finds out, he will definitely be very angry with you." Reward!”
"Wait a minute, General, since the Yellow Turban Army is so rampant, why don't the imperial court send people to destroy it?"
Li Dao asked the biggest doubt in his heart.
"Court?"
Xiong Youde shook his head gently and said: "The imperial court has lost hope for a long time. There are wars all over the world. The emperor asked the local guards to recruit troops and suppress the bandits on their own, and they have no control over us at all."
"Let localities recruit their own troops?"
Li Dao was surprised and said: "Aren't you afraid that the local people will take the opportunity to rebel? Once the local people have military power, it will be difficult for them to listen to the emperor's orders."
Xiong Youde had a complicated expression and looked at Li Dao.
Obviously, he didn't expect that Li Dao's mind could actually think of this level.
He sighed softly and said: "Now that the world is already devastated, how can the emperor control so much? As the saying goes, tear down the east wall to repair the west wall. The emperor just wants to get over the current hurdle first.
As for the local government taking the opportunity to rebel, we'll have to figure out a way later. If we can't even get through the current hurdle, what will happen even if the local government rebels? Besides."
He pondered softly and said: "Actually, the situation in this world is far beyond your expectations. Let me tell you this, the Yellow Turban Army just now is actually a force with a huge origin.
Our court is called the Great Zhou Court, but it is actually just a second-level dynasty. There are many martial arts sects in the dynasty, which are high up and dominate one side.
During the heyday of the Zhou Dynasty, naturally no sect dared to cause chaos.
But now, a disaster that has never happened in hundreds of years has occurred within the dynasty. People everywhere are in dire straits, bandit armies are everywhere, and they are riddled with holes. These martial arts sects can no longer hold back, and they have taken the opportunity to rise up!
The Yellow Turban Army originally came from a large sect, called the Holy Fire Sect. There were many masters in the Holy Fire Sect and they acted mysteriously. They suddenly rebelled two years ago.
In just two years, four or five groups of [Holy Fire Cult] rebels have appeared throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty. They gathered their troops, occupied the city, and called themselves the Yellow Turban Army. Their number has now exceeded one million!
The leader of the Yellow Turban Army currently wandering around our Fengzhou area is called Li Rufeng. He is a being with extremely advanced skills. It is said that he has already reached the legendary realm of Tianwu! "
There was a trace of shock and faint fear on his face.
"The realm of Tianwu?"
Li Dao asked.
"Yes, after people in the Zhenqi system complete the ten levels of foundation building, the next realm will be the realm of Tianwu!"
Xiong Youde responded:
"And people with the physical body system are called the realm of magic and martial arts after building the foundation for the tenth level. Let's talk about our Fengzhou commander Yang Yulong. He is actually only at the tenth level of the Qi system. He is the same as Li Rufeng. There is no comparison between the earth and the sky. "
"The gap is so big?"
Li Dao was surprised.
"low profile!"
Xiong Youde waved his hand quickly and said in a low voice: "So the commander-in-chief is also in a difficult situation now. The imperial court has issued orders more than once for him to put down the rebellion as soon as possible.
But this Li Rufeng's cultivation is so terrifying, and with the help of experts from the [Holy Fire Sect], and an army of more than 100,000 people under his command, who can defeat him? "
"In this case, why don't the commander-in-chief take the opportunity to rebel? This emperor is unpopular anyway. Why should such a brainless emperor sacrifice his life for him?"
Li Dao said coldly.
Xiong Youde was startled and said quickly: "Don't bring up this kind of topic in front of the Chief Soldier. The Chief Soldier is very loyal to the imperial court. If anyone dares to persuade him to rebel, he will definitely kill that person."
"Yeah?"
Li Dao frowned.
He is still a foolish and loyal person?
"Then what should we do next?"
He continued to ask.
"I don't know, let's report the news here first,"
Xiong Youde's face was complicated and he said: "But don't worry, the Commander-in-Chief cares about the soldiers and will never make fun of the lives of the sergeants. I think he will probably let us abandon this place directly."
