Dragon Warrior

Chapter 35
Three days later, in the evening, a black-faced man in his 40s knocked respectfully on the door of Room [-], Tianzi, Tongfu Inn.

Xiao Jing opened the door and saw that it was indeed Ding Ziwang, the helmsman of Guanzhong Dalian's sub-rudder, so he brought him into the room and closed the door dead.

"My subordinate Ding Ziwang paid homage to the young master, but he didn't know that the young master was coming. The subordinate was far away to welcome him, so please punish him." Ding Ziwang knelt down on the ground and pleaded guilty.

"This has nothing to do with Ding Duozhu. It's because I intend to do something privately, so I didn't let them inform Guanzhong sub-duo. Ding Duozhu, please get up!" I found some unusual things, so I found Ding Duozhu with a secret signal, and wanted to ask for some news."

Ding Ziwang said: "Sir, please tell me, my subordinates know everything."

Xiao Jing said: "Did the Mengyuan court make any big moves in Guanzhong recently? Where is King Ruyang?"

Ding Ziwang is the head snake in Guanzhong. The news is not clear, but some basic information cannot be hidden from him. Hearing the words, he said respectfully: "The imperial court intends to attack the rebels in Guanzhong. He led the army into the customs half a month ago, and now he is confronting the leader of the rebel army, Li Liangbi. The attitude of another leader of the rebel army, Li Siqi, is ambiguous and vacillating, so the battle did not start immediately."

Xiao Jing said: "So that's the case, so is Li Liangbi related to Mingjiao?"

Ding Ziwang said: "Not only Li Liangbi is related to Mingjiao, but also Li Siqi is also from Mingjiao, but the two people's backgrounds are slightly different, Li Liangbi is from the four sects of heaven, earth, wind and thunder directly under the Mingjiao Guangming Left Envoy, while Li Siqi is from Guangming Right Make the directly subordinate water volcano the water gate among the four gates."

Xiao Jing asked puzzledly: "Since they are both from Mingjiao, why don't they invite each other to help each other, but Li Siqi wants to do the thing of watching the fire from the other side?"

Ding Ziwang said: "The left and right envoys of the Ming religion have a high status and do not belong to each other. Fan Yao, the right envoy of Guangming, has disappeared for many years, and the whereabouts of the leader Yang Dingtian is also unknown. Then Li Siqi has no boss, and has always acted unscrupulously. Yang Xiao's orders were dismissive, and he was also hostile to Li Liangbi under Yang Xiao's command, and according to rumors, this person was ambiguous with the Mongolian and Yuan courts, and his attitude was vague and difficult to distinguish."

Xiao Jing said: "The two Lis in Guanzhong stand side by side, and together guard the Guangming Peak in the Western Regions. It is the gateway to the Mingjiao headquarters. This time the imperial court is vigorously suppressing the Mingjiao headquarters. The Mingjiao headquarters will definitely not sit still. Do you have any news from the Mingjiao senior management?"

Ding Ziwang thought for a while and said: "Mingjiao people always behave strangely and unpredictable, and their subordinates have no definite news. However, I heard that Yang Xiao, who has not been sitting on the Wangfeng Peak for several years, can't sit still, and is contacting Wei Yixiao and Wu Sanren everywhere. , and even Tianying Sect Yin Tianzheng, calling on them to lead their respective forces to revolt in response to the Guanzhong battlefield."

Xiao Jing shook his head and said: "Mingjiao has been divided for many years, and the high-level people are fighting with each other for the position of leader. If these people sacrifice their direct descendants and make chestnuts for Yang Xiao, it may not be so easy. However, the situation is critical now, which is different from the past. It's different again."

Ding Ziwang nodded his head and said in agreement: "My subordinates are also thinking the same way. Yang Xiao is narrow-minded and can't convince the public. He just dominates the Guangming Peak and refuses to give in. As a result, Yin Tianzheng established his own family, Wei Yixiao went far away, and the five scattered people formed their own line. The Five Elements Banner does its own thing. Mingjiao has many sects, and the command is chaotic. These years, the momentum has not been as good as before. This time, it was Yang Xiao's subordinates who had the accident, and the subordinates thought that Wei Yixiao and others might ignore him."

Xiao Jing pondered and said: "These people are indeed dissatisfied with Yang Xiao, but they still have a lot of affection for Mingjiao. If this matter is only related to the success or failure of Yang Xiao's subordinates, they may really sit idly by. If Li Liangbi and even Li Siqi are wiped out, the next step is to march westward, attacking Huanglong directly, and bring the Mingjiao headquarter together. Without these brains, the Mingjiao will immediately split into countless forces, large and small, and Mongolia When the Yuan court looks back, whether to sit back and watch each other fight each other, or to defeat each other, is the best policy."

Ding Ziwang was surprised: "Young Master, you mean that these people will eventually respond to Yang Xiao's call and lead their own troops to Guanzhong to help?"

Xiao Jing shook his head and said: "Although these people usually fight each other, if it really comes to the time when the Ming Cult lives and dies, they will definitely abandon their prejudices and join hands to fight against the enemy again. However, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and soldiers are very fast. They may not have time to gather The army came to help. In my opinion, they are most likely to lead their own elites, such as Tianyingqi, Wuxingqi, Wusanren's soldiers of hundreds of battles, etc. to come day and night, first to stabilize the battle in Guanzhong, and then slowly Gather troops, and raise supplies such as military equipment, food and grass. This battle may not be over in a short time, no matter which side wins, it will hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt itself by eight hundred."

Ding Ziwang was convinced: "When the young leader said this, the subordinates suddenly became enlightened. With that said, all the demons of Mingjiao will gather here to compete with King Ruyang, but they don't know how they will solve Li Siqi's problem. "

Xiao Jing thought of Ku Toutuo of the Ruyang Palace, and said with a playful tone: "This Li Siqi is also the overlord of one side, doesn't he know the truth of his lips and teeth? If Li Liangbi loses, it will definitely be his turn next, so he must be on the side of Mingjiao Yes, even the current ambiguous attitude may not be a tactic to confuse the enemy."

The more Ding Ziwang thought about it, the more he realized that it was reasonable, thinking that it is no wonder that others can be the head of the young gang at a young age, but he is the head of the rudder at the age of [-]. This vision is not on the same level.What I thought of was only a low-level bloody fight in the rivers and lakes, but the young gang leader only listened to a few words from me, and he was able to immediately peel off the cocoons and get an overview of the overall situation.

Xiao Jing asked again: "Do you know which martial arts masters have been sent by the imperial court recently? Among them is a Taoist priest with white hair and a childlike face. Do you know his information?"

Ding Ziwang replied: "My subordinates are also concerned about this aspect, but I don't know much about the Taoist priest mentioned by the young gang leader. This person seems to have appeared out of thin air. I have never heard of him in the world before. The subordinates sent People searched, but they didn't find any useful information, they only knew that they came with King Ruyang, but the subordinates also know the masters of the Ruyang Palace well, so they can be sure that there is no such person."

Xiao Jing said: "This Taoist priest is plotting to deal with Mingjiao masters. His martial arts must be extremely good. After you go back, you should pay more attention to this person and learn as much information about him as possible. I have a hunch that this person may Will become a great enemy of the gang."

Ding Ziwang was startled, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Your subordinate obeys."

Xiao Jing continued: "How much do you know about those foreign monks?"

Ding Ziwang said: "Fan monks have a lot of status in the Mongolian and Yuan courts, and they have always been domineering. They are often seen in the Guanzhong area. However, a young monk came recently. It seems that the status is not low. All the Guanzhong monks regard him as their leader. Moreover, as far as my subordinates know, this person also brought 36 Tubo elites, all of whom were brave and clever, who were scattered everywhere by him, and I don't know what he was looking for."

Xiao Jing said: "They are looking for the whereabouts of the high-level Mingjiao. Chang'an City is the first city in Kansai, and it is a must-have for military strategists. Once the war starts, there will definitely be a series of battles around this city. If you come, there is a great chance that you will meet in Chang'an City. You have to make preparations for the meeting later, except for the necessary manpower, and try to move all the brothers to a safe place. This Chang'an City is absolutely unbearable. "

Ding Ziwang bowed to accept the order, and then said: "Since the war disaster is about to happen in Chang'an City, the young gang leader must make plans early, the son of a thousand gold will not sit down, and the young gang leader shoulders the heavy responsibility, so you must not put yourself in danger!"

Xiao Jing waved his hand and said: "I have my own plans for this, you don't need to worry about it. Okay, you step back! If necessary, I will find you. Remember, if there is any important news, send someone to notify me in time."

Ding Ziwang took the order to retreat, and went down to prepare to transfer the Guanzhong sub-helm.

Xiao Jing sat alone on the chair, tapped the table with her fingers, thinking about the upcoming changes.

There is no doubt that the Mingjiao must have won this war. Otherwise, the Mingjiao would be destroyed by the court, and the six sects would not besiege Guangmingding again after eight or nine years.And the Mingjiao was surrounded by the six sects at the door precisely because they wiped out their respective families in this battle. Otherwise, relying on the power of the Mingjiao, they would pull up an elite of hundreds of battles to attack the hard crossbow by force. To guard the dangerous pass of Kunlun, even if the six major sects have the ability to reach the sky, they can only look at the mountains and sigh.

However, this incident was not recorded in the original book, and the Taoist priest never appeared.I don't know if I didn't write it, or because of my appearance, it caused a series of butterfly effects, and this series of changes came about.

Xiao Jing didn't plan to leave right now, anyway, he was alone, and he was brave and talented, confident that with his own abilities, as long as he wasn't blocked by the army, he could leave at any time.In this case, it is better to wait and see the situation in the city first, to see if people from the Ming Cult will show up in Chang'an City.And what kind of ability does that Taoist priest with overwhelming self-confidence have? He dared to say that any master of Mingjiao would be killed more or less.

In the next few days, no major incidents happened, but Xiao Jing was not the only one who was smart, and some old and cunning people who traveled all over the country, more or less smelled something ominous, and then thought of the 10,000+ imperial army on the bank of the Wei River, Immediately, everyone couldn't sit still, and they transferred their property and family members through various channels, not daring to stay in the city any longer.

This atmosphere has also infected other people in the city. Although most people don't think so deeply, they also instinctively feel uneasy. The price of food, which was already high for a while, soared again, far exceeding the ability of ordinary people.

It was in this terrified atmosphere that Xiao Jing received a secret letter sent by Ding Ziwang. The letter only said one thing, but it shocked Xiao Jing's heart, and his eyes became dark and difficult to see.
