Jinyiwei's psychic case: the opening is Lingbo Weibu

Chapter 1056

Upon entering the middle section of Yixiantian and confirming that there were no pursuers behind them, Shi Qianhua ordered his men to rest there.

After dismounting, he looked up at the sheer cliff that seemed to plunge into the sky, feeling the scattered sunlight falling on his face...

Shi Qianhua suddenly burst into laughter!

"Haha."

"Grand Commander, what is the cause of your loud laughter?"

Hearing this, Shi Qianhua pointed to the precipice and said with a smile, "If I were Xu Ying's henchman, I would definitely send a small team to circle around here and ambush them before the fire attack!"

"They will wait in comfort for us to tire ourselves out, and then sit back and wait for us to walk right into their trap."

"what?"

After he finished speaking, the deputy general standing beside him was taken aback at first, then smiled apologetically and said, "The Grand Commander is joking."

"Let's not talk about how to climb up these cliffs for now."

"Tell me, how did this small team manage to bypass Ten Thousand Beast Ridge and get here?"

"Going out from the outside? We'll definitely be spotted by our informants."

"A detour? Doesn't that mean crossing the entire Sichuan defense zone?"

After the deputy general finished speaking, Shi Qianhua, who was showing off his 'military theories', sneered: "It all depends on human effort!"

"This shows that although Xu Yingxun is good at taking unconventional approaches, he is still not as good as me in terms of troop deployment and overall military coordination."

"Whether it was being attacked from both sides in Jiangzhou, or the battle at Hundred Beast Valley, we suffered heavy losses because we didn't figure out his preferred tactics."

"If it is a head-on confrontation between evenly matched forces, I am confident that I can defeat him utterly."

"So, brothers, don't be discouraged by this defeat. When I return to Shu, I will reorganize the troops and surely annihilate them on the main battlefield."

"We swear to follow the Grand Commander to the death."

The accompanying lieutenant shouted obsequiously.

"Ok?"

It was thought that the remaining thousand or so soldiers would follow suit.

But to everyone's surprise, not a single person echoed this sentiment.

"What? Are you questioning the Grand Commander's military competence?"

"A bunch of short-sighted brutes..."

'Whoosh! '

'boom. ’

Before the deputy general could finish his boastful words, several thunderbolts, carried by the fire dragon emerging from the water, crashed down from the sky and exploded at their resting place.

'Boom.'

Not only that, the explosions of several Thunderbolt Incantations caused the rolling stones on both sides to crash down the steep slope.

"what……"

"Go! There are people up there!"

“Look at that flag…”

"Yes, it's a flying fish flag."

"It's the Royal Guards!"

'puff. '

"Ow."

The sudden turn of events plunged the exhausted soldiers into despair.

They scattered like frightened birds, desperate to escape this calamity!

Just moments ago, Shi Qianhua had been showing off his 'military talent' in front of his subordinates, but now he wanted to slap himself.

Was Lao Tzu's mouth blessed?

I am only assuming that the Embroidered Uniform Guard is lying in ambush here.

We want to boost morale at this time.

But you guys are serious?

"Don't even run!"

"Protect the Grand Commander..."

The deputy general, who wanted to clear a path for Shi Qianhua, tore apart several captains with some strength, forcing them to rush to the cliff and block the rolling rocks.

"Fuck you."

"If one soldier is incompetent, the whole army will be incompetent!"

"I've had enough of following Shi Qianhua."

"A piece of trash."

'Puff, puff.'

As they spoke, these veteran soldiers of the Shu navy collectively defected.

They stabbed the deputy general who was pointing fingers at them to death.

"You, are you going to rebel?"

'bass.'

'Sizzle.'

Shi Qianhua, who was entrusted with important responsibilities by Shi Qing and came from Guanshan, must have real skills.

After seeing the soldiers kill his deputy, he immediately took a knife and killed several of them.

Before the Imperial Guards could even launch their attack, Shi Qianhua and his men, caught in the dual crises of explosions and rolling stones, started fighting amongst themselves.

However, Shi Qianhua, who valued his life highly, immediately tried to escape after killing several soldiers in front of him.

In his view, he would be saved as long as he could get through the narrow passage.

'Whoosh.'

'Pfft. '

However, just as he was dodging the rolling stones and trying to break free of the encirclement, a dark figure wielding a blade suddenly darted out.

As he pierced Shi Qianhua's right arm, which was holding the blade, he thrust the blade upwards, intending to slit the other man's throat.

"asshole!"

'boom.'

As a seasoned eighth-rank expert, he used his qi to shatter the shadow.

His right arm was pierced, causing the blade in his hand to fall off immediately.

'bass.'

A wave of waves has risen again.

Before Shi Qianhua could even recover from his staggering retreat, a knife slashed from behind, piercing through his chest and even breaking through his middle dantian.

"what……"

He was instantly deflated, and his body suddenly froze in place.

'Puff, puff.'

The next second, several more dark figures appeared, turning the Shu army's naval commander into a pincushion.

'Gulu! '

"Plop..."

As several embroidered spring knives were simultaneously pulled from Shi Qianhua's body, he, having exhausted all his life force, knelt directly on the ground.

At that moment, his eyes widened, and he finally saw clearly what the people who had attacked him looked like.

Taking the lead and delivering the first blow, Tianxue mercilessly wiped the blood from the blade.

Li Yuanfang, who was right behind him, stared intently at the other person with a cold expression.

Ye Lin and the assassins from the Dark Moon Pavilion, having finished off Shi Qianhua, glared at him with disdain.

"You, you are all despicable..."

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, and the Great Shaman, they will surely avenge this governor."

"By order of Imperial Envoy Xu of the Great Ming Dynasty, the traitor Shi Qianhua shall be executed."

'Sizzle.'

With a deep growl, Li Yuanfang, who was usually stern and unsmiling, finished speaking.

With a swift stroke, he severed the other man's head.

"Clean up the battlefield quickly."

“There are likely more deserters who will pass through this area.”

"Lord Xu has given orders..."

"Under the premise of ensuring our own safety, we must not allow any thieves to escape from here."

"Yes."

The belated autumn rain extinguished the barren land of Wan Shou Ling three days later.

Ten thousand acres of forest, a deep, dark expanse.

The shrubs that once blocked out the sky are now either burned to ashes or barely clinging to life with only a section remaining.

Corpses were everywhere, all huddled together in a ball.

Some of them have even been carbonized.

'Clap. '

The horse's hooves struck the ground with a crisp cracking sound.

Under strict orders, the elite troops of the Jiazi Battalion, who had accompanied Xu Shan to this place, stood guard.

Xu Shijie and a group of Jiangzhou officials who came to see him off carefully accompanied the young man at the head of the group.

"After the Jia-class battalion, under this imperial envoy, completely opened up the road into Sichuan..."

"All officials of the prison, cooperate with the Jiangzhou garrison to transport siege equipment and provisions to the city in a timely manner."

At this point, Xu Shan patted Xu Shijie's shoulder and added, word by word, "Never pay lip service to what you preach."

'Plop.'

Before Xu Shan could even react, Xu Shijie and his group struck the ground a third time, and they immediately knelt on the scorched earth.

He replied tremblingly, "Please rest assured, Imperial Envoy Xu, we would never dare to do such a thing."
