Tan Taiche squinted and looked at An Zheng: "You seem to be holding back when you're talking, this doesn't look like you only have three or five Golden-Rank Spirit Stone."
When the eight Spirit Stone bullets exploded, the entire Fanggu seemed to tremble multiple times. To be honest, other than a wealthy and imposing manner like An Zheng, which of the small sects could afford to use off-gun? Just one shot was enough to buy dozens of jade grade spirit stones, and the savings of those small sects might not even be enough to buy half. After this round of gunfire, the ground was swept up!
Almost all the buildings were destroyed.
After the eight Spirit Stone bullets exploded, every one of them could cover an area of over a hundred meters. Within this range, the powerful cultivators were still able to react. The disciples didn't have any time to react at all; they had all become true cannon fodder.
This was a war, and there was no room for manoeuvre from the very beginning. If either side was kind, then the final result would be that the kind side would bear the greatest amount of viciousness. If Heavenly Awakening Sect lost, everyone would be killed by the martial artists surrounding them. When that time came, no one would be merciful. This was war, and war was always about killing people.
The buildings around Heavenly Awakening Sect were completely cleared, and the disciples of the over a thousand disciples from the various sects were lying in pools of blood. They had originally wanted to seize the Heavenly Awakening Sect in one go, but no one expected that the Heavenly Awakening Sect would actually start attacking.
With a team of nearly four thousand people, each round would be reduced by at least a fifth!
The corpses lying in the pool of blood were all incomplete, giving the Jiang Hu guests a huge psychological shock.
The Old Huo raised his head and took a second gulp of wine, "Although my Huo Wan Sect isn't a cultivator, there are no longer any rumors of me in the martial arts world. But, no one will forget that I am the world's number one weapons craftsman! "
"Fight!"
The quickly filled off-gun s shot out for the second round, and this time all that came out were gunpowder from the eight cannons.
"Release the arrows!"
Following Old Huo's order, the powerful archer shot out the rocket. The gunpowder that rained down from the sky was ignited by the rocket. In an instant, the Heavenly Awakening Sect was surrounded by a sea of fire! Those martial artists who didn't manage to escape in time were all engulfed by the sea of fire, rolling and wailing in it. The martial artists behind him were all in a mess. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and they lost their will to fight in an instant.
These people began to retreat recklessly. How could they dare to think about entering the imperial court as an official? In fact, they were all jealous of An Zheng. An Zheng was an outsider, and in just a little over a year, he had already become the assistant commander of the imperial guards in the Tiantong Palace. Their eyes were red. If they could, they would have trampled An Zheng under their feet long ago. However, they had never had a chance. Now that this opportunity had come, he realized his childishness and stupidity.
No one could succeed so easily, and An Zheng's success was also not due to luck.
The background of the Heavenly Awakening Sect, had completely entered the eyes of these people this time, and had completely frightened them.
"An Artifact Forging Master can affect an entire martial arts world."
An Zheng looked at Old Huo, "He can overturn the martial arts world. For him to be able to single-handedly destroy the entire State of Yan, in this world, he is the only Old Huo, the one and only Old Huo in this world. "
Old Huo, who was standing high up above, laughed out loud. "It's just so-so. I still have many things that I haven't used yet.
In his hand was a small square box, and he held it very tightly: "An Zheng, just relax and fight bravely. I'll support you with this battle with the Heavenly Awakening Sect. After not seeing the martial world for so many years, people no longer knew how terrifying an artifact forging master was. This box was originally meant to be a gift for you guys, but when those guys come up later, see if this gift is beautiful or not! "
He raised his head and drank a mouthful of wine, "State of Yan is a slightly larger martial arts world. If there are, we can just annihilate them. "
Chapter 268 - Nine Hell Magic Bell Killings
Perhaps, what An Zheng and the others were doing now was just a joke in the eyes of other nations. And this kind of thing could only happen under the circumstances of the State of Yan. How could an unknown sect dare to go against the imperial government? Swallow King was still alive, no one knew that he was being controlled. Therefore, Swallow King represented the royal authority of this country. And what the Heavenly Awakening Sect was doing, in this sense, was actually plotting against him.
Moreover, this rebellion was within the capital.
If it had been any other country, such a thing would not have happened. If it was Da Xi, no one would even think about it.
But in the State of Yan, An Zheng and the others had done it, and there was a certain probability of success. And only in State of Yan would they have a chance of success.
Her Majesty had always wanted to keep control of the court, and the great families were ostensibly submissive, but in reality they did not want a foreign woman in power, and this woman's ambitions were well-known. This was not the chaotic era of the Seven Kingdoms several thousand years ago. At that time, the empress dowager's authority was so great that she could even freely change the king of a country. As long as they touched the interests of those large clans, they wouldn't be trampled on by others.
Mu Changyan was originally a puppet, so he left the capital. The Heavenly Awakening Sect was brazenly rebelling, but until now, only a group of gangsters had been summoned to attack the Heavenly Awakening Sect. One could imagine the decline and erosion of the State of Yan. And most importantly, State of Yan's army was still fighting at the border. Hundreds of thousands of elites were too busy to care about the capital.
This is a complicated situation … Logically speaking, no matter how domineering the empress dowager was, Mu Changyan held the army department in his hands, what was there to be afraid of?
But in truth, being in control of the army was not equal to being in control of the army. What they could control was only a small part of the army, which was also the army that Wang Kaitai and Fang Daozhi were in. And the Imperial Guards were under the control of the Embroidery Palace. As for the State of Yan's army of a hundred thousand, it was simply impossible to transfer them back from the border. The sixteen kingdoms did not go to war with each other all year round. Once they transferred troops back from the border, the Youguo would immediately pounce on them and bite them if he detected them.
In truth, the military could not control too many troops, but they managed to hold back the empress dowager. Meanwhile, the empress dowager was being held back by the various imperial court clans, so she had become a tripod on the surface. Amongst the three of them, Swallow King was undoubtedly the weakest. And now, Mu Changyan could no longer be considered a force of influence.
An Zheng's Heavenly Awakening Sect had merged with the forces of the military and Zaocang, and replaced Mu Changyan with a new member of the three-legged army.
If Daxi Shenghuang heard about what happened in the State of Yan, he would probably laugh his head off. For a country to be in such a situation, what was the need for it to exist? However, such a rotten country, under the careful maintenance of the fighting forces of the three factions, did not fall. This was because everyone knew very well that their benefits were built on the foundation of the existence of the State of Yan. Once the State of Yan was destroyed, everything would be for naught.
Therefore, An Zheng and the others actually protected the Heavenly Awakening Sect in the capital like this, becoming a threat to the Empress Dowager Su and Mu Changyan.
Gu Chaotong s
quatted there, a branch in his hand constantly drawing on the ground. Very quickly, a very complicated diagram was drawn out by him.
"The Empress Dowager Su hasn't moved. She doesn't want the people from the alliance to see her trump card."
Gu Chaotong raised his head and looked at An Zheng: "And the current situation, has already exceeded my expectations, so the strategy for this should have changed … In fact, at this point, the Swallow King could be ignored. Swallow King did not have any power at all. The only people he could move were probably the eunuchs and maids by his side. As for the adults … "It seems like they're all very patient. They're just waiting for us to force the empress dowager into a corner and see what other methods the empress dowager can pull out."
He sighed, "Actually, this is an incomparably sorrowful matter …"
An Zheng patted his shoulder. "Maybe we can change this country."
Gu Chaotong: "But this is rebellion, we are well aware of it."
An Zheng: "Like I said, if you failed to call me rebel, if you succeeded you would call me a protector of the nation."
Gu Chaotong stood up, "Now we will see how Empress Dowager Su will proceed. The martial artists should still charge over, but they won't be able to affect anything. The Oldman Huo is really an eye-opener. "
An Zheng laughed: "Me too, I was scared by the Oldman Huo."
He looked at the eight off-gun s. The off-gun did not have the most powerful spirit stone bullets. When I went to take a look, there were only two spirit stone bullets left. "Those martial artists will soon pounce on us, only to meet force with force."
As he was speaking, the sects that had suffered disastrous losses began to stir again. These people wouldn't give up so easily, especially after a certain amount of losses.
And they became smart, and began to gather together, to propose a leader who would command a unified command. This way, it wouldn't be as messy as it was before. In addition, more and more people joined them. Even though the ones that joined after the fight weren't cultivators, most of them were rascals who wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob others. These days, An Zheng had been suppressing them extremely fiercely in the east city, those rascals didn't have a chance to live. Now that they saw that the Heavenly Awakening Sect was about to be destroyed, these people pounced on them like mice smelling the aroma.
"An Zheng, your method of controlling bad people doesn't seem to be very effective."
Tan Taiche sat there and laughed: "Seems like being afraid of you is only temporary."
An Zheng replied, "Because I'm still not frightening enough."
Tan Taiche: "That's true, if a person is frightening to a certain degree, people wouldn't even have the courage to resist. For example, the royal family of the Da Xi Empire. They were so powerful that they could suffocate people. Who would dare to resist them? Even a fart from the Holy Emperor Chen Wunuo would be able to destroy a corner of the world. "
The no-name army had begun to regroup, and it was clear that they were going to win this battle.
Gu Chaotong stood at the top and looked: "There is about two thousand or so people in front, rushing towards the main entrance. However, it should be a feint. A portion of them have already moved to another direction to gather. They are probably going to attack us from another direction while we are defending at the front gate. This leader of the group has some thoughts, but the other group is just faking an attack. Look … There are around a hundred people gathered at the back. It should be all of the experts. "
An Zheng looked over there, and after being silent for a while, he said: "Although it is called a feint, all of them can be considered as a main attack. The opponent is very strong, and all three of their attacks can change the situation."
Gu Chaotong nodded his head, "That is indeed the case, so we cannot let our guard down."
Old Huo said, "Leave the main entrance to me, so what if there are two thousand people?
Gu Chaotong laughed: "Since that's the case, then let's beat them until they are convinced. Since there was nothing to worry about, then the owner … Please bring a group of elites and stealthily circle around from the other direction. Before the second team comes close, we will directly kill them and catch them off guard. As for those hundred experts, we can handle them as well. I am afraid that General Wang Kaitai and General Fang Daozhi are enough to make those people lose. "
An Zheng said: "Alright, I will bring my people out."
He rushed down from the high ground and waved at Du Shoushou: "Let's go out and fight with their spirit."
Du Shoushou was eager to go out and fight, so he immediately rushed over.
An Zheng found Wang Kaitai and Fang Daozhi, and the two of them went up to be on high alert. At the same time, the experts of the Zaocang s were in charge of supporting them. No matter how strong the people of the small sects were, they were not a match for Wang Kaitai and Fang Daozhi.
"Sir Chen, I would like to borrow the thousand-computer field officer."
Chen Zaiyan, who was sitting blankly at the side, was stunned. "Ah? At this point, you just have to do whatever you want. "
An Zheng could tell that Chen Zaiyan was a little depressed and knew that he regretted it. For people like Chen Zaiyan, what they cared about the most was their own reputation. The previous time he was wronged was completely different from this time. The last time was because he was wronged, but this time, he had become the one who planned all of this. The Swallow King was still here. The more he thought about it, the more regretful he felt that he had to follow An Zheng in order to protect a Xiao Qi Dao that he could not confirm his identity.
"Milord."
An Zheng squatted down, "The King has already been controlled, this is an indisputable fact. Although you and I feel heartache, we can't change it. The King is pitiful, but we have to look ahead. Xiao Liu'er said that if the King was truly controlled by the Silver Needle Gu, then … It can't be saved. According to the records, unless the controlled person had extraordinary perseverance and conviction to maintain their sanity, their body would still be out of their control. The King no longer has the chance, the great swallow will need you in the future. "
Chen Zaiyan looked up at him, somewhat at a loss: "Does the great swallow have a future?"
An Zheng stood up and laughed: There is.
He stopped in front of the team of two hundred or so officers from the Thousand Revolution School. After tidying up his words, he said, "I need fifty people to follow me out. A team of people is coming from behind to launch a surprise attack. I know that most of you may have been regretting that you had somehow gotten involved in this matter. But now, there seems to be no other way for us to survive besides winning right? "
field officer Qian Ji had made Du Jianli push up his mask, revealing a resolute and cold face: "An Zheng, you're thinking too much. We were indeed involved for no reason, but we had had enough. As long as the Empress Dowager Su was not eliminated, she could not be revived. We are all carefully chosen from the army. Which one of us doesn't want to defend this country? We just don't have the courage like you. If we don't dare to say so, we will f * cking do it … If there were, we would have already charged into the Embroidery Palace. "
He turned around. "Fifty men, follow me. Let's kill our way out and let the motley crowd see what a soldier is and what a war is."
After he finished speaking, he and An Zheng walked out with large strides. An Zheng, Du Shoushou, Du Jianli, and the fifty Thousand Chance field officers, the fifty-three of them went out from the backyard, bypassed the ruins, and met with a group of about a thousand people who were planning to ambush them from the back.
Fifty-three against a thousand.
But no matter how you looked at it, An Zheng's side felt as if they were going to bully someone.
"You guys are good at coordination, so I won't get involved. fat grandpa can go enjoy it."
The armor of purple Golden-Rank appeared on Du Shoushou's body, and he swung the purple Golden-R
ank Triton as he rushed forward.
As for the fifty Thousand Chance field officers, they were quickly separated into combat teams. They formed groups of five, and their coordination and coordination were at their limits. The ten battle squads moved forward and unleashed a barrage of crossbows at the same time. They then rotated and unsheathed their sabers. All kinds of weapons appeared one after another with astonishing might. These military officers who had been trained by a large amount of manpower and resources were able to let the enemy understand what a killing machine was.
An Zheng casually summoned his Nine Hell Magic Bell: "Let's play a big move …."
He pressed his hand down, testing the Nine Hell Magic Bell's complete strength for the first time.
The nine bells in the sky turned into a pagoda made of chains that were linked together and descended with a loud rumble. After the nine pagodas landed on the ground in a circle, the nine pagodas surrounded everyone. The sound of the bell rang out from all nine pagodas at the same time. The sound waves rumbled mightily, and at least a few hundred people who were trapped within them were simultaneously killed!
After the sound wave passed, all that was left was a pile of powder.
This was the power of a Purple-Rank Magic Tool.
The Purple-Rank Magic Tool 201, but the Purple-Rank Magic Tool, was only thirty-six.
Chapter 269 - It's Him
An Zheng's attitude was especially obvious, it was to shatter the morale of the people, and at the same time cause the attitude of the families of the ministers and court officials to change. Without those people, An Zheng could not have toppled the empress dowager. Even if those people were to not take action and watch from the sidelines, it would be a great thing for An Zheng.
The nine pagodas formed by the Nine Hell Magic Bell descended. The chains that connected the nine pagodas formed a big circle with the nine pagodas, surrounding most of the Jianghu guests. The bell rang from the nine pagodas, and lightning and fire flickered on the chains. Wherever the sound wave passed by, the team of at least seven to eight hundred people were crushed into dust. From this, it could be seen how powerful the Purple-Rank Magic Tool was.
