"Brother Xu Ning, brother Huarong said that we can only fight the Xixia army inside the city and cannot go out of the city."

"But that's how Cao Zheng escaped?"

Xu Ning was very unwilling. Cao Zheng had already fallen into their trap and could be arrested at any time. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, he escaped.

Lu Fang comforted Xu Ning: "Brother Xu Ning, I know you are unwilling, but Brother Hua Rong, this is for our own good. Don't forget, that kid Cao Zheng is good at using the centipede flag, and there are 10,000+ Xixia rescuers outside the city. Army. If we rush out, we will win, but if we lose, the Xixia army will come back, and we will be held accountable. To be able to ambush [-] Xixia troops today is already a great achievement."

"That's right, brother Xu Ning, when His Majesty finds the Golden Rooster Flag, then we can go out and kill these bastards."

Fan Rui answered and comforted Xu Ning together.

Xu Ning looked at the two of them, and couldn't help laughing, saying: "Since you both said that, if I, Xu Ning, don't listen to you, I'm too ignorant. Okay. , let Cao Zheng’s son-in-law live a few more days.”

Both Fan Rui and Lu Fang laughed.

The next day, the sun shone on the capital of Liao, and the corpses of tens of thousands of Xixia soldiers piled up on the streets, and the stench was unbearable.

Fan Rui dispatched several young generals to transport the corpses to be cremated, and they returned to Huarong, Dong Ping, and Mu Guiying at the handsome camp.

Hua Rong, Dong Ping and Mu Guiying were very happy when they learned that [-] Xixia troops had been wiped out in this battle.

"Three generals, you have made great contributions this time. When His Majesty returns, I will definitely ask His Majesty for your credit."

Fan Rui, Lu Fang and Xu Ning bowed their hands to Mu Guiying and said in unison, "Thank you, Madam, for your kindness."

Mu Guiying waved his hands and said with a smile: "The three generals are exempt."

……

In the Xixia military camp, when the news of Cao Zheng's defeat and the loss of 6 horses reached Li Yanzong's ears, he was stunned, and then he was so angry that he kicked the table in front of him over.

"Damn, what is this Cao Zheng doing to eat, and he lost [-] elites from Xixia in one night!"

The spies who reported were frightened by Li Yanzong's angry aura, lying on the ground, not daring to move or answer.

This made Li Yanzong even more angry, pointing at him and shouting: "This general asked you something, did your sister hear it?"

Only then did the spy dare to raise his head to look at Li Yanzong, tremblingly said: "The main reason why General Cao failed was because he mistrusted the spies in the city, which led to him being locked up and beaten."

Hearing this, Li Yanzong became gloomy.

The words "close the door and beat the dog" deeply hurt Li Yanzong. It was the first time he was "humiliated" like this after leading the army for so many years.

At this time, a small soldier ran in and knelt down in front of Li Yanzong: "General, General Cao, please see me."

"Let him roll in!"

Li Yanzong shouted.

Xiaobing went out to convey Li Yanzong's order.

Not long after, Cao Zheng came in. He was naked from the upper body, tied with a rope, and carried a cane on his back.

"Cao Zheng met the general."

Cao Zheng knelt in front of Li Yanzong.

Li Yanzong glanced at Cao Zheng, and sneered: "Cao Zheng, do you think that this general will forgive you if you learn to be honest and plead guilty? To tell you the truth, you are dreaming! Because you insisted on going your own way, [-] soldiers died tragically in the Liao capital. And you, you still have the face to come back. An incompetent general like you who only cares about his own life, what is the use of this general keeping you?"

The more Li Yanzong spoke, the angrier he became, and he shouted, "Come here! Drag Cao Zheng out and chop him up!"

When two Xixia soldiers came in and escorted Cao Zheng to go down, Li Yun came in and blocked the way.

"General, Cao Zheng can't be killed yet." Li Yun walked up to Li Yanzong and bowed his hands to him, "Although Cao Zheng is guilty, but now that our enemy is in front of us, killing the general will be tantamount to self-defeating. It's not as good as the general." The general left Cao Zheng, and the general will be useful in the end."

Li Yanzong stared at Li Yun, and said in a low voice, "What is the use of this Cao Zheng?"

Li Yun stepped forward and whispered something in Li Yanzong's ear.

Li Yanzong pondered for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, since he is still useful to you, you can take it away. But the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped. Someone, drag Cao Zheng out to beat the top ten boards, and then hand it over to Li Yanzong. Lieutenant General."

"Yes!"

Two Xixia soldiers escorted Cao Zheng out, and after a while there was a sound of boards and hissing.

Li Yanzong sighed.

Li Yun cupped his hands and said, "General, the last general knows that you have no intention of killing Cao Zheng, but if you don't kill him, the other generals in the army will inevitably be dissatisfied."

Li Yanzong nodded and said: "After all, I brought this kid out. It's just that this time, all of our spies lurking in Liaodu are dead, and it will be difficult to collect news in Liaodu in the future. Especially Wu Tian, ​​I don't know who they are. It’s not that they have already got the Golden Rooster Flag, if they get it, I’m afraid the decisive battle between us will start. So, Lieutenant General Li, you need to speed up the formation.”

"Yes!"

……

Under the underground palace, Wu Tian and the Holy Maiden walked with torches for two full days, but they still haven't seen the end.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be something wrong with this road." The saint stopped and pointed to a picture of a wolf on the wall, "Yesterday, my concubine saw this picture of a wolf, could it be that I have been walking around in circles? "

"Your words have reminded me, and I also feel that we seem to be going around in circles. If it is true, what should we do?"

Wu Tian pondered for a while and said.

The saint thought for a while, and sat cross-legged on the ground.

"Wait for the concubine to perceive the size and structure of the cemetery with her perception ability, and then discuss it."

Chapter 336 It was the child who was naughty just now

Wu Tian nodded.

The saint closed her eyes and perceived the cemetery.

After a long time, the saint opened her eyes and her face became very solemn.

Seeing her like this, Wu Tian frowned slightly, leaned over, and asked in a low voice: "How is it, what do you feel?"

The saint sighed slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, this cemetery is strange. A normal cemetery is at most as big as a mansion, but this cemetery is as big as a mountain."

Wu Tian was very surprised by these words, and stared at the saint in disbelief.

"Saint, are you right, this cemetery is as big as a mountain?"

The saint nodded: "The concubine will not be wrong. This cemetery not only connects the entire imperial city, but also extends hundreds of miles away from the Liao capital."

Wu Tian's eyes widened. This cemetery is hundreds of miles wide, so how far should it go?

This can be said to have exceeded the scope of Wu Tian's imagination.
