Jianming Chaos

"Zhiming, where did you come from?" Zhang Fei rubbed him lightly with his fist.

"Uncle Emperor, military advisor, all generals, stay safe. I'm coming back this time, and I want to have a private chat with Uncle Emperor." Zhiming didn't have time to catch up.

Liu Bei was taken aback, looked at everyone, and said, "Okay, follow me to the backyard."

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Zhang Fei scratched his head and said, "What is this kid doing recently? He is mysterious, and he might leave again after a while. Now the time to see him is getting less and less gone."

Kong Ming remained silent. He knew that Zhi Ming was not an ordinary person, but it was inconvenient to say so.

When he came to the backyard, Zhiming knelt down and said, "My lord, please forgive me!"

Liu Bei helped him up and said, "Please speak up if you have something to say, we don't need to behave like a monarch and a minister."

"My lord, I have encountered some difficulties and I have to leave the army for a while. This matter concerns the survival of the Han Dynasty. I must go abroad and hope for my lord's approval!" Zhiming said bluntly.

"Why is it so important to go abroad?" Liu Bei was shocked.

"It's hard to explain in one word. My lord, it's still the same sentence. I don't want to reveal too much right now. I will explain everything afterwards." Zhiming didn't have time to elaborate.

Looking into his piercing eyes, Liu Bei knew that he had made up his mind, so he said, "Zhiming, ever since I met you outside Xinye City for the first time, I felt that you were not an ordinary person. In fact, during the Battle of Chibi, I I have witnessed you disappear in place with my own eyes. Although I don’t know what spell you used, but I know in my heart that you are a person who does things properly. You have such extraordinary power. If you want to leave the army, even if you don’t come to ask for instructions, I can’t Stop you. I still say the same thing, as long as you don't leave the organization for a day, you are my Liu Bei's people; if you need it, you can ask the organization for help at any time. I will let you remember all your military salary. It is a lot of money, don't worry .”

Zhiming clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, my lord! The place I'm going to is very far away, and I don't need support. As for the military salary, the current military budget is tight, and my part can be ignored for now."

"No, one yard is worth one yard. I can't treat my own badly." Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Before you leave, I have to tell you something. You probably don't know about Soochow's recruitment of relatives, right? "

Zhiming was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What kind of marriage are you looking for? Who wants to get married?"

"You may not believe it. Sun Quan actually proposed that I marry his younger sister, Sun Shangxiang, who is less than 20 years old!" Liu Bei said in an almost angry tone.

"Sun Shangxiang?!" Zhiming couldn't believe it.

"Yes, you should have met her, right? Obviously, this is a political marriage, or a conspiracy. Sun Quan and Zhou Yu will not give up the fertile land of Jingzhou, they are trying to control me through marriage; accurate In other words, it is to control our army." Liu Bei said, looking at the lightly rippling pond in a trance.

"Who proposed the marriage contract? Could it be that Sun Quan is a matchmaker?"

"How could Sun Quan voluntarily marry his younger sister to me? It was Zhou Yu who proposed it."

"At the beginning, we should have made up our minds to get rid of Zhou Yu. Now our army is in a dilemma, embarrassing both the emperor's uncle and Princess Shangxiang." Zhiming thought regretfully, and then asked, "What's the lord's strategy?"

"Sun Quan's mother, Wu Guotai, asked Lu Su to send a message, and asked me to meet at Ganlu Temple in Beigu Mountain in three days. I wanted to refuse, but Kong Ming asked me to go, saying that if I didn't go, I would only arouse Zhou Yu's anger. Trigger a new war. You also know that although our army took advantage of the chaos to take down several counties, the morale of the army is still uncertain, and many soldiers in Jingzhou are dissatisfied; if the Wu army attacks on a large scale, the situation is still unpredictable." Liu Bei knew that with the current strength, It is difficult to compete with Wu Jun.

"Zhou Yu knows that his fate is not long, and he will definitely speed up to take Jingzhou." Zhiming hit the nail on the head.

"Of course I know that. Since the other party has made a move, I can only accept it." Liu Bei looked melancholy.

"My lord, I think that the other party will definitely set up an ambush around the Ganlu Temple, and when the lord meets Wu Guotai, they will dispatch killers to finish the job. Did the lord forget about the banquet in Xiangyang?" Zhiming reminded.

"Of course I haven't forgotten, it's just that this time is not that time, so it's hard to push!" Liu Bei shook his head and sighed.

"My lord, you can send Zilong, General Guan, and General Zhang to protect you all the way, so as to avoid this calamity."

"Speaking of this, Zilong went to fight in Changsha and has not returned yet. I am ready to send Yide to help in the battle; the new generals Huang Zhong and Wei Yan have been sent to Jiangxia to assist Liu Qi in defending the city. Liu Feng, Mi Fang, etc. I was sent to guard other counties, and Yu Yunchang is the only general available at the moment, but I hope he stays to protect Mrs. Gan and others, so there is no one available for the time being." Liu Bei still hopes that Zhiming can stay.

"What happened to Zilong in Changsha?" Zhiming remembered what they discussed just now.

Liu Bei looked around and said in a low voice, "I don't want to say anything about this. When General Huang Zhong came to seek refuge last time, he said that Changsha had been captured by a group of undead troops. Zilong hasn't returned for a long time, so he must be in a crisis."

"Changsha was captured by an army of undead? What's going on?" Zhiming felt that strange things were happening more and more.

"I don't know either. General Huang said that they tried to take back the city, but the enemy army was too strong, so they had to give up. Moreover, I heard that the undead did not belong to the Han Dynasty."

After thinking carefully, Zhiming said: "It seems that my plan will be postponed a little bit. My lord, you can send an envoy to reply to Sun Quan first, agreeing to go to Ganlu Temple; I will go to Changsha immediately to save Zilong. If the situation goes well , I will let him count the time and go directly to Beigu Mountain to meet up with the lord."

"Zilong's life or death is still uncertain. To be honest, even if I send Yide there, I still don't feel at ease; if you go, I will be much more at ease." Liu Bei said truthfully.

"Thank you, my lord, for your love. I'll set off right away. Don't worry, Zilong will be fine. I will let him go to Ganlu Temple safe and sound. My lord, there will be a time later!"

"But, can you make it in time? How many horses do you need? I will equip you with the fastest horses..."

Before Liu Bei finished speaking, Zhiming had disappeared into the distance.Liu Bei didn't even have time to say anything more.

Back in the meeting hall, Liu Bei said to Zhang Fei, "You don't need to go to Changsha, Zhiming has already gone."

"What do you mean, big brother?" Zhang Fei didn't react.

"I mean, Zhiming has gone to assist Zilong." After Liu Bei finished speaking, he ordered Sun Gan to go to Caisang to reply to Sun Quan.

"Where are the others?" Zhang Fei looked around.

"left already."

"Gone? Which way did you go? How many people did you bring?" Zhang Fei was puzzled.

Liu Bei didn't know how to describe it, so he had to change the subject: "Let's discuss how to deal with recruiting relatives three days later."

"Brother, let me escort you there!" Zhang Fei was always looking for something to do.

"Yide, it's like this, I want to give you another task." Kong Ming spoke.

"Military division, you are interrupting again! Can't you let me escort elder brother?" Zhang Fei was dissatisfied again.

"I really can't do it this time, I'm afraid you will cause trouble to the lord. If such an important matter is messed up, the consequences can be big or small." Kong Ming said bluntly.

"Then... the second brother escorted the eldest brother." Zhang Fei knew that he had a bad temper, so he had to admit it.

"We have our own arrangements for this. Yide, you are responsible for escorting my family back to Longzhong. I don't want them to stay here for a long time, and sooner or later they will become my bondage." Kong Ming issued an order.

"...Yes, I will obey the advice of the military advisor." Zhang Fei was dissatisfied, but the military order was hard to disobey.

Later, Liu Bei was still not at ease, so he ordered Guan Yu to lead 300 people to Changsha.Guan Yu went back to the barracks, selected [-] strong soldiers, and set off today.

…………

The area outside Changsha County was desolate. The farmers and traders who had been here before had all been evacuated, leaving dead crops and goods scattered all over the place.Broad daylight could not conceal the strange aura emanating from the city at all.

"It's really not right, it doesn't look like a human method." Zhiming looked at the mummified corpses all over the ground and thought, "At that time in Xinye, I suspected that Huang Zhong and the others had played a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain. It seems true, Changsha has already fallen into the In the hands of an army of unknown origin. This army is so cruel that it even kills ordinary people!"

When he came to the city, through the thick gate, Zhiming could hardly feel the breath of the living, thinking: "It seems that the enemy did not leave any survivors. So, General Zilong has..."

Thinking of this, his heart tensed, and he quickly drew his sword, and a sword energy full of energy smashed through the city gate.

When Zhiming entered the city, he saw that the ground was messy and there was no sign of life.He rushed straight to the county mansion.

When he was approaching the county mansion, he felt a very faint breath. Looking over, he saw a person whose hands were tied and hung up, and his feet were only about half a meter above the ground.There wasn't a single guard nearby.

Zhiming took a closer look and found that it was indeed Zhao Yun, with blood all over his body and his head drooping, as if he had lost his vital signs.

"Brother Zilong, I'm here!" Zhiming knew that he was still angry, and was about to save someone, when he suddenly felt a murderous aura.

He leaped tens of meters backwards with the flying technique, and when he landed on the ground, he saw that the floor in front of him was cracked, and a giant net of hemp rope was raised.

"Sure enough, there is a trap! I almost fell for it!" Zhiming looked around and found that he was surrounded.

A group of grinning skeleton warriors surrounded him. Obviously, Zhao Yun was using it as bait.

"These undead captured the city?!" Zhiming was startled, "Why did they appear in the world?"

"Who are you, dare to break into the castle, are you his accomplice?" The skeleton general pointed at Zhiming with his bony fingers and asked.

"Castle?" Zhiming observed the style of the enemy's armor, which was different from that of the Han people. He thought, "They really come from foreign countries, but why can they speak Chinese? Who summoned these undead?"

Thinking of this, he asked, "Where does your army come from?"

The general said coldly: "We are the Roman army, and this city has been taken by us. If you are here to save people, I advise you to surrender immediately!"

"Roman army? What's going on here? The place I'm going to is also Rome, is it fate? Could it be that King Offa found the Sandblade of Time, and then... No, the logic of time is wrong, it wasn't King Offa Why... that's right, they are Romans, so they should know where Pompeii is, so I don't have to search all the way to ask!"

Thinking of this, Zhiming calmly said: "That is my friend, please let him go."

"We let him go, and Aiolos will not let us go. Warriors of the empire, come on!" The general gave an order, and the skeleton warriors rushed forward.

Zhiming swung the Excalibur angrily, slashed wildly, and immediately the bones splattered, no blood was seen.

Looking at the broken bones and armor scattered all over the place, the general said angrily: "Let me ask for advice!"

Zhiming swung a sword aura, the general blocked it with a shield.The shield broke instantly, and the general was almost chopped off by the sword energy.

The general knew that his skills were inferior to others, so he shouted in a hoarse voice: "Bone Beast, attack!"

Several skeleton warriors merged into a giant white bone beast with all four limbs, and its body was covered with broken and incomplete armor. It let out a roar that tore through the sky.

"What is this? They shouldn't have used this trick before they were alive, right?" Zhiming was surprised.

The bone beast exhaled poison gas from its mouth.Zhiming made a protective shield in time to block the poisonous gas.

The shield defuses the poisonous gas.With Zhiming's energy, the protective cover turned into a shock wave of airflow and hit the giant beast.

I thought the Bone Beast was vulnerable, but I didn't expect that the air current wave couldn't knock it down.Zhiming's heart trembled.

The Bone Beast started to attack frantically, its forelimbs broke away from the joints and shot out like bullets.Zhiming was caught off guard for a moment and was knocked down to the ground.

"Fire the arrows!" The general gave an order, and thousands of arrows scrambled to let off, turning the enemy into porcupines.

When the skeletons were excited, they found that the one hit by the arrow was only the afterimage of the enemy, and the body had already disappeared.

Zhiming used shadow tactics to quickly shuttle through the enemy army, and wherever he went, the enemy soldiers were smashed to pieces.

The general was furious and ordered the bone beast to continue attacking.It's a pity that the bone beast couldn't catch the opponent's figure.

Zhiming used the divine sword to create a fire and thunder attack, which blew off the bone beast's limbs, making it incapable of attacking.

Seeing that the victory and defeat had been decided, Zhiming jumped up, intending to give it a happy volley.

The white bone beast had already guessed the opponent's tactics, and suddenly raised its neck, and the poisonous mist sprayed straight into the sky.

Zhiming's divine sword split the bone beast into "Huagusan", but he himself was also poisoned, and suddenly felt dizzy.

Skeleton warriors stepped forward to besiege.Zhiming covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and dealt with the enemy with the other.

The overall strength of these undead was no less than that of the White Tigers, and Zhiming began to feel that it was difficult; if he didn't have the magic sword in his hand, he would be killed by thousands of knives.

The poisonous gas gradually attacked his heart, and Zhiming felt his whole body go numb, and he didn't even have the strength to use black hole magic.

"Damn it, the scene in Persia happened again..." He even lost the strength to raise his sword, and everything in front of him became distorted...

"Take another one." The general breathed a sigh of relief, and said to his opponent, "Tie him up! There should be more people coming, continue to lure the enemy."

The skeleton soldiers hung Zhiming up in the same way, lurking in the dark, waiting for the next prey.

At this time, two mysterious fighters were also lurking in the dark, watching the whole battle without making a fuss, so as not to startle the enemy.The purpose of their sneaking into the city is to rescue the prefect Han Xuan.
