Mythical big man, champion soldier saint

Chapter 26 The Real Blitz
In the cave, the light is dim.

The Zongheng Taoist fell down and sat on the steps. After Huo Qubing came in, Qu Jun stepped forward to check his breath, and his heartbeat had stopped.

"People are dead."

Qu Jun uncovered the bronze mask on the face of Zongheng Daoist.

Many incantations are engraved on this mask, which has been passed down for a long time by the Zonghengdao.

Under the mask, there was a pale face with a straight and slightly curved nose, majesty in the shadows, and staring eyes, staring at death.

Huo Qubing turned his head to look at the cave, with a curved roof and a ring-shaped inner space.In addition to the entrance, there are two passages at the rear, continuing to the depths of the mountainside.

Huo Qubing's thoughts spread out, and he perceived the layout and... secrets in the depths of the cave.

Under his powerful perception, it is difficult to hide any secrets.This is actually a special cave. According to ancient legends, there was a place where immortals once emerged. After being occupied by the vertical and horizontal roads, they were expanded and formed a settlement.

There are other mysteries hidden in the belly of the mountain!

Huo Qubing leaned over and took off Taoist Zongheng's waist bag, held it in his hand for inspection.

"The dead Zongheng Daoist...is a substitute."

When Huo Qubing spoke, he winked at the rock wall on one side.

Both Qu Jun and Yue Rao were good detectives, so they immediately stepped forward and groped carefully on the rock wall.

"You don't need to look for it..."

An old voice sounded.

The rock wall slides silently, exposing another hidden space behind the rock wall. Its inner area is small and clear at a glance.

There was a low seat inside, behind which sat an old man with white hair and beard, and looked weak.

The old man had a long thin face, high cheekbones, and a tall body. Sitting there, he still looked imposing. He looked at Huo Qubing with gloomy eyes: "How do you know that he is a substitute? I think I have no flaws."

Huo Qubing, followed by Song Ran and Qu Jun who looked surprised, came to the entrance of the hidden cave, thought for a while before giving a response:
"His practice is weak, it should be because with your help, he took a shortcut and barely reached the heaven-human realm, which is far less powerful than the strength obtained by his own practice.

As a sect with a long history, the leader only has this level?
And I lead the army to attack, once you are defeated, the Zonghengdao will completely perish.

And even if you win, you will only be subject to stronger conquests.

Under such circumstances, you still lead the people and officers and soldiers to risk their lives to block the fate of the entire sect. Obviously, you have other calculations, otherwise the Zonghengdao would not be able to survive today.

There are similar flaws, for example, he has nothing but this mask.

Taken together, the blatant crossroads are either stupid or have other reasons. "

"If I'm not mistaken, this should not be the entire power of the Zonghengdao, but a component of the Zonghengdao."

The old man sitting in the hidden space said in a deep voice:

"You didn't say anything, the most important thing is that you can perceive some hidden changes in this cave with the help of the Seven Yin Talisman Techniques.

I didn't expect to meet a person who had practiced the scriptures, and I saw through my plan to hide in the dark again by using this battle. "

"Unfortunately...you are late."

The old man's breath suddenly weakened, and there was no trace of blood on his face.

He opened his chest by himself, and there was a small penetrating wound in his chest, which had already cut off his vitality, and the area between his eyebrows also began to ooze blood.

"The people behind you found that the vertical and horizontal roads were exposed and wanted to kill you?"

Huo Qubing asked, "Who are they?"

"This is at least half of my Zonghengdao foundation, and it will be destroyed by you."

The old man said sadly: "I won't tell you anything, I believe that you will die soon, and you will be buried with me in Zonghengdao."

The corner of his mouth also began to bleed: "Someone will do my work for me..."

Qu Jun strode forward, looked back and said: "Huo Shizhong, this one is dead too."

I just found the hidden part of the cave and found this old man. I thought there would be a breakthrough, but I didn't expect it to fail again in the blink of an eye.

The ray of sword energy derived from the primordial spirit sacrificed by Liu Qing first approached the cave, but when I entered, the sword energy was gone... Huo Qubing thought to himself.

"Huo Shizhong, I later found out that this is the master of the vertical and horizontal paths?" Song Ran couldn't help asking, a little out of his mind.

"Yes, but he has become an abandoned child." Huo Qubing said calmly.

Changan.

Liu Che has been watching the process of Huo Qubing leading troops to raid Zonghengdao through the Sheji map.

When the Han army broke through the Zonghengdao Mountain Gate and Huo Qubing stationed his horse on the hill, Liu Che looked pleased.

He looked at Huo Qubing as if he was looking at his 17-year-old self, full of vigor and sharpness.

To a certain extent, the appearance of Huo Qubing made up for his regret of being unable to fight in the battlefield as the emperor.

In a daze, it has been seventeen years since I ascended the throne. Looking back, how many of the great wishes I made back then have been realized... Liu Che asked himself in his heart.

When Huo Qubing entered the mountainside, he stretched out his hand and wiped away the image of the Sheji map.

Anyone can see that the outcome has been decided.

Huo Qubing commanded two hundred soldiers and swept across the Zongheng Road.

The sharp, swift, and invincible attack power displayed by the Han army still makes people's pores stand on end, and there is a strong sense of throbbing and resonance.

With such an army and generals, people feel inexplicably at ease.

Zhou Ping looked down at his forearm calmly, the goosebumps there hadn't subsided yet.

There was a moment of silence in the study, and there was no sound at all.

Only Liu Che predicted the result before the battle started.

It is a little regretful that the meaning is still unfinished, and the vertical and horizontal road is obviously not enough to stimulate Huo Qubing's full combat power.

Liu Che swept across the crowd, Princess Pingyang was expressionless, and Zhou Ping narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

Only Zhang Xiaoyuan's city residence was a little worse, and the shock on his face had just subsided.

He was still in shock from the battle just now... Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't think there was a problem with his previous analysis.

Huo Qubing clearly knew that he was going on an expedition, and his opponent had a geographical advantage and an advantage in numbers, but the result was completely different.

Zhang Xiaoyuan quickly sketched out the process just now in his mind, and came to the conclusion that whoever encountered Huo Qubing's sharp attack just now would be defeated under the impact of the cavalry at that speed.

Unless the charging process of the Han army can be contained, and the troops of the same quality can be used to confront it, the result can be changed.

"Our Han army's fine cavalry is indeed strong enough." Princess Pingyang said.

She did not deny that the Han army was strong, but she did not mention Huo Qubing's leadership. In other words, she felt that other generals could win this battle.

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked respectful and humble: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the strength of our Han army is far beyond what I expected, and it was because I didn't understand the strength of our Han army just now.

With such a strong army, I will definitely be able to show my majestic power, and my subordinates will not make the same mistakes in the future. "

"You are still a citizen, not a subject."

Liu Che said indifferently: "Just now, Qu Bing led his army to attack the enemy's formation. At that time, the fighter opportunity was fleeting. We only need to hesitate for a moment, and the opponent will react and deploy defensive means. Our army's consumption will inevitably increase greatly.

Qu Bing's grasp of the battle situation and opportunity at that time seemed simple, but in fact it was subtle.The cohesiveness of the people made everyone willing to follow him to launch an impact after a long-distance raid, and work together as one.

Is this something ordinary generals can do?

You wait for no one to see? "

Zhou Ping bowed his head silently, while Zhang Xiaoyuan had already turned into a kneeling posture, with his head lowered very low.

Princess Pingyang reached out to hold the cup, and took a sip of the hot tea.

"I still have something to do, you wait."

Liu Che didn't mention a single word about the candidate to replace Huo Qubing, obviously dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaoyuan's performance.

Zhang Xiaoyuan's face was slumped, which was in stark contrast to the previous excitement.

Who would have thought that the opponent would be defeated so easily by Huo Qubing when he had the upper hand.

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't get up until Princess Pingyang and Zhou Ping bowed to say goodbye.

Princess Pingyang walked out of the palace along the road, and looked back at Zhang Xiaoyuan before boarding the chariot: "I thought you really knew about military affairs, it seems that you have to continue studying hard!"

After talking, get in the car and leave.

Today's change was originally an appointment between her and Zhou Ping, and they planned to recommend Zhang Xiaoyuan in front of Liu Che together to facilitate this matter.

Unexpectedly, things were far from expectations.

This also made Princess Pingyang realize that she wanted to beat Huo Qubing and his aunt.

Wei Zifu became a queen, and he lost the respect and humility he used to have towards her, and to a certain extent, squeezed out her influence on Liu Che, making her very uncomfortable.

But Princess Pingyang didn't want to stand on the complete opposite side with them.

She sat in the carriage and remained silent for a long time.

On the other side, Zhou Ping said to Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Today's incident is not because of your poor performance, but because Huo Qubing is too outstanding. I never thought that he could defeat the enemy so quickly."

Zhang Xiaoyuan clenched his fists secretly: "If you give me a chance, I believe I can do worse than Huo Qubing."

Zhou Ping twitched the corner of his mouth: "Okay, there will always be a chance in the future, so go ahead."

----

Lujiang County.

When Huo Qubing came out of the cave, he saw Xiong San sitting on the top of the wall, eating the big pancakes he had brought in his luggage, with a relaxed attitude.

This shows that the confrontation between the two sides has come to an end.

"Huo Shizhong, after we wiped out Zonghengdao, shouldn't it be time to return to Chang'an?"

Qu Jun looked reverent: "I have heard about Huo Shizhong's talent in the art of war, and today I can come here with the servant and witness our Han army's offensive. It's really like the wind.

Huo Shizhong leads the army, defeating the enemy like lightning, which is amazing! "

Huo Qubing said: "A real blitzkrieg doesn't just mean fighting fast enough and attacking far enough, but it can solve the core strategic issues. Do you think I came all the way to Lujiang just for a vertical and horizontal road?"

Qu Jun was stunned for a moment, is there something else?
At this time, the big cat ran over from one side, holding a big eagle-like bird in its mouth, proudly, and rubbed against Huo Qubing's leg as if asking for credit.

Huo Qubing reached out and patted the cat's head, and glanced at the bird.

The bird was dead, its throat bitten by a big cat.

　ask for a ticket, thanks

　　I saw some comments saying that I am short, this is obviously not true...
