The Immortal Taoist Priest in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 56 Times have changed
Wu Sangui hurriedly dispatched troops and generals.

Xu Xuancai was the core figure of Changguo. Without the certification of the Heavenly Master, there would be no recognition from the majority of believers, the divine right of kings would not be carried out, and Xu Yong's usurpation of the throne would not be so smooth.

As long as Xu Xuan is captured, it is equivalent to grasping the lifeline of Changguo. In this way, Xu Yong will have to negotiate terms with him.

Three thousand Wu troops were dispatched.

Due to time constraints, it took too long to mobilize the army. It would be terrible if they ran to Xiangyang, or if the Xiangyang army came to respond.

So mobilize those who can be mobilized first, and then capture this group of people.

These three thousand soldiers and horses are all elite, each wearing leather armor and skilled in bow and horse. They can easily capture 800 people.

Outside the city, soldiers and horses gathered together, and flags were like a forest.

Wu Sangui put on the white armor and helmet that symbolized the leader, with a conspicuous red tassel on the top of the helmet.

"Dad!" The heroic young general dismounted and saluted. This was his legitimate son Wu Yingqi.

"Well, let's go."

The army was dispatched, and not far away, another sound of horse hooves was heard.

I saw a group of cavalry with dark skin and wild eyes standing in front of everyone.

The cavalry retreated to both sides, and a fat man with a stout body and a beard rode out slowly with contempt in his eyes.

"Where is King Pingxi going?"

There are ghosts!
This was Wu Sangui's first thought, but thinking about it, such a large-scale troop dispatch could not be hidden from everyone.

"It turns out it's Prince Yu. The demon thief Xu Xuan from Baidi's teaching is nearby. I just want to capture this person and bring him to justice."

"How about together?" Duduo smiled.

"Okay, please excuse me, Your Majesty."

In this way, one thousand barbarian cavalry and three thousand Han cavalry set off, following the clues discovered by the scouts along the way to their destination.

At the same time, Shigang Village.

This place was originally a prosperous village. Because of the war, all the villagers moved south, so it became an empty city.

A group of high-rise residents live in slightly intact houses.

Oil lamps were lit, dispersing the smell of dampness and decay in the air.

Xu Xuan flipped through a book full of pictures. Opposite him was Xie Miao, who was wearing men's clothing and full of heroic spirit. He was also the director of Yunmeng Hospital. Almost all the senior officials of the White Lotus Sect had become medical talents.

This is a secret book recording various surgeries.

"We have discovered bacteria, developed sterilization methods, and retrained Wenpo through the Baidi Sect. Currently, the infant mortality rate has dropped to about one fifth, compared with one eighth in the Wuchang area of ​​Beijing. The main reason is that the promotion progress is not enough. , otherwise it can be even lower." Xie Miao reported one achievement after another.

Li Jianxing stood at the window with his sword on guard. Hearing the words, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's really a great merit."

"Yes, fellow Taoist Jianxing, you can ask other Taoist priests to publicize more, let more wealthy people participate, and do this kind of thing as a virtue." Xu Xuan closed the book, "For example, increase the price of incense, or carry out first-stick incense. Auction, proceeds from the auction will be donated to medical causes, etc.”

"What a good idea. Let me handle it when you get back." Li Jianxing's eyes lit up.

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be accomplished by patting oneself on the head. It is necessary to cooperate with the government and formulate some laws and regulations to supervise it to prevent some people from taking advantage of the opportunity to make money.

A few people chatted away, talking about astronomy and Sheji, just passing the time.

Gradually, Xu Xuan's thoughts drifted to the mirror world.

In the Mirror Realm, Hong Yi endured for five or six years and used the magic of Huang Ting to train three hundred dead soldiers. They were servants on the surface, but in fact they had extraordinary martial arts.

At the same time, there are two hundred zombies, currently sharpening their knives and preparing for revenge at the right time.

"Master Xuanzhen has arrived!"

Before Xu Xuan could finish watching, someone came in to report.

"Bring him in."

Li Changsheng brought Xuanzhen in.

When Xuan Zhen saw Xu Xuan, his first impression was that he was young.

Very young, Xu Tianshi should be about 40 years old, and he looks like a young man in his early 20s.Of course, he didn't think that the other party had found a young man to impersonate Xu Xuan. No young man had such a temperament and eyes that had experienced vicissitudes of life.

Just like Zhang Duxiao saw Xu Xuan at first sight, Xuanzhen, as the leader of the Beidi Great Sect, also saw Xu Xuan's divine appearance.

"Fellow Taoist Xuanzhen, thank you for your hard work." Xu Xuan stood up to welcome him.

"I have met Xu Tianshi. I should have come here earlier. I am too blind to recognize Mount Tai." Xuanzhen didn't know what Xu Xuan's abilities were, but it looked like he was not simple.

"You'll be safe here. Once we finish dealing with the enemies, we'll return to Xiangyang together."

"Aren't you going to leave immediately?"

"No need, just kill some people." Xu Xuan picked up the gun on the table and gently wiped the oil on it with a cloth.

The iron gun has not yet seen blood, and is waiting to be tested.

When everyone went out, Li Jianxing arranged for each person to receive a gun.

"Guns are too troublesome, just give me a knife." Xuanzhen shook his head.

Li Jianxing aimed at the wall not far away and fired backhand. Then he took out a paper bucket the size of his little finger, poured the ammunition into the barrel, pushed it with a rod, and continued to pull the trigger. The flint hit the fire door, the gunpowder exploded, and the projectile fly out.

Five rounds were fired in one minute, and Li Jianxing demonstrated how to use the bayonet.

"Times have changed, guns and guns are king, take them."

Xuanzhen was stunned. In this case, what's the point of practicing martial arts?I'm afraid that warriors will not be able to go to the battlefield in the future and will only be able to do intelligence work such as spies.

800 people guarded the entrance of the village and isolated the surrounding areas with wooden stakes, stones and ravines.

rumbling...

Soon, the sound of horse hoofbeats was heard, and more and more cavalry appeared. From the perspective of everyone, these cavalry seemed to be endless.

Both sides raised their flags in unison and prepared to fight. The firearms of the Shenji camp were loaded. The 800 people were divided into three columns: front, middle and back. However, they were not in a hurry to shoot, but waited for the commander's order.

"Whose army is this?" Xu Xuan asked.

Scout captain Liu Yuan said: "Huitianshi, in front are the troops of Wu Sangui and Duoduo."

"Wu Sangui, Duoduo...tsk tsk..."

Two heavyweight executioners, I have encountered them today.

Well, they haven't done anything for many years. Apart from Hao Ge, they have never killed a barbarian with status since then. It's just a good time to test the waters.

In the direction of the enemy, Wu Sangui and others also saw people lining up at the entrance of the village. The leader of Zhongnan Mountain, who had surrendered to the barbarians, rode with him on horseback.

"What the hell?"

Wu Sangui felt a little disdainful in his heart. The Chang army he faced was not like this. Could it be that Xu Xuan commanded it blindly? This kind of army formation was like tissue paper, and the cavalry could break through it as soon as they charged.

Could it be that they thought the blunderbuss in their hands could withstand the cavalry charge?
The killing range of most bird muskets is not as good as the powerful bows of the Eight Banners Cavalry, and the rate of fire is so slow that there is almost no chance of a second shot.

"kill!!"

Great work again.

In the middle army, Duduo drew his sword and pointed at the stone hillock, and the cavalry charge began.

Duduo showed a bloody and cruel smile: "The demon thief Xu Xuan, I must see you begging for mercy today."

The Jin soldiers were unstoppable, trampling the Han family under their feet and forging his throne with human heads. The enemies in front of him were nothing but his military exploits.

In Shigang Village, Xu Xuan's expression remained unchanged.

The Golden Man and Iron Cavalry are indeed strong, but it's a pity that they met the incredible self.

The distance is getting closer and closer, and the Jin cavalry who are charging ahead are ready to perform their unique skills of riding and shooting.

150 meters away, Shenji Battalion took the lead.

Boom boom boom!
Smoke was everywhere, and iron sand was shot out.
