Chapter 1036
Chapter 1036
The entire manifesto is written in a grand and magnificent style, with ornate and beautiful language.
In an extremely radical tone, it describes how Xu Shan, after entering Shu, led his troops to indiscriminately kill innocent people, affecting the stability of Shu.
Using despicable means, they massacred more than 10,000 soldiers stationed at Guyanling, causing a local riot.
He even used his status as an imperial envoy to force He Zhishan, the prefect of Shu County, to designate the Beggars' Clan as an "evil cult" and carry out a crackdown.
Using this as a pretext, they murdered more than 5,000 Beggar Clan members.
He wreaked havoc in Fengdu and assassinated Li Cheng, the general of Jiangzhou. He also perpetrated numerous horrific atrocities in the area!
This article is published to prove the validity of national laws...
"With this proclamation, personally drafted by the head of the civil officials appointed by the court, do the Wudang Flying Army and the Kuimen garrison, including the barbarian bandits of the Hundred Beast Valley, now have a perfectly legitimate reason to kill this imperial envoy?"
As soon as Xu Shan finished speaking with a cold laugh, several of the generals present volunteered, saying, "Lord Xu (Imperial Envoy), please calm down."
"We are willing to be the vanguard, to flatten eastern Shu, and to prove your innocence."
Hearing this, Xu Shan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Playing a propaganda war?"
"The Embroidered Uniform Guards are their ancestors!"
"Is a mere 'manifesto' not enough to warrant your personal visit, Xuan Yueyu?"
Xu Shan, who had turned his head away, immediately turned back to question him.
With the Jinyiwei's well-established online troll system, capturing these few cities would allow them to reverse public opinion in no time.
Clearly, the Crescent Moon Fish had other things to do.
"My lord, I have come to apologize with a bundle of thorns on my back."
"Say!"
"This proclamation was originally written by Guo Yijing, the commander of the Wudang Flying Army, and was originally intended to be written by Xiao Chen, a disciple of the lord."
"This would have caused an even greater sensation, but Lord Xiao refused on the spot."
Enraged, Guo Yijing subjected him to cruel torture and hung his body in the center of Wanzhou City as a warning to others.
"It wasn't just him..."
“Lu Ning, the deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the generals of the four battalions who refused to change their tune all received this treatment.”
"Upon receiving this news, my subordinates dispatched two teams to secretly rescue him."
"But in the end, all efforts were in vain!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Two groups of people, more than ten experts, all perished?"
'Plop.'
"Yes!"
"Not only that, three of our strongholds in Wanzhou have been exposed."
Xuan Yueyu, kneeling on one knee to beg for forgiveness, answered with deep remorse.
'boom.'
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan instantly flew into a rage.
This was his most devastating loss since he entered Sichuan.
"Do Guo Yijing, Huang Ruyan, and the elders of the Beggars' Sect have that kind of strength?"
Ghost Pavilion was the apple of Xu Shan's eye.
Each member has devoted a great deal of effort to it.
Whether it's elixirs, cultivation techniques, or resources, everything is being allocated to them!
The members are selected from among thousands.
In addition, there were spies left in Wanzhou...
Even if Xiao Chen, Lu Ning, and the others were bait, given their skills and our own backup plans, we shouldn't have suffered such heavy losses!
"Of course, they don't have that capability."
"This time..."
"A renowned master of the ninth rank at the Great Perfection is stationed in Wanzhou."
"Based on the information received from the front, it should be Huang Ruyan's master, the previous leader of the Beggars' Sect, Hong Qiweng!"
'Hiss.'
Upon hearing this realm and its name, the commanders in the camp couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.
Even Zhang Liansong, who was temporarily acting as Xu Shan's assistant, widened his eyes in surprise.
In the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty, besides those few top-tier figures, there were also several 'quasi-saint' level experts.
Among them, Hong Qiweng, who won first place in the "Huashan Sword Competition", has the most resounding name and the most formidable strength.
Zhang Sanfeng and Tianyi Daoist both claimed that, in terms of martial arts and internal energy, Hong Qiweng was on par with them.
The only thing lacking is luck and opportunity!
"My lord, this Hong Qiweng is here specifically to target you, the Ghost Pavilion, and the Underworld Moon Pavilion."
“He knows you are righteous and loyal, and even if Jiangzhou is trapped, you will definitely not abandon your brothers and disciples in Wanzhou. Therefore, he used Xiao Chen and Lu Ning as bait to attract the brothers of the Ghost Pavilion to take the initiative to rescue them.”
"In their view, with your strength, even if Jiangzhou is surrounded by enemies, you have the ability to break through."
"Even if we know they have been captured and the Ghost Pavilion has suffered heavy losses, we will still risk our lives to rescue them."
"This explains why the Wudang Flying Army did not launch a military coup against Jiangzhou for so long."
"Because they understand you. For their brothers..."
"Go ahead to dangers!"
“Once we get there, even if Hong Qiweng can’t kill you, they will use the Wudang Flying Army to wear you down until you are exhausted.”
If the naval forces of the two lakes had not brought the Big Sword Battalion and the Jia-type Battalion into Sichuan, they would have been attacked by Xu Shan in Jiangzhou, who was jointly attacked by Shi Qianhua and the Hundred Beasts Valley...
They were destined to be isolated and helpless in Shu!
This "Xu Bantian," who, in just half a month after entering Sichuan, turned eastern Sichuan upside down and left the Red Miao and the Sichuan army helpless...
Both the King of Shu and his queen, as well as the Red Miao people of Guanshan behind him, were extremely wary of them.
Therefore, no matter what means are used, it must be nipped in the bud!
Otherwise, the entire Shu Commandery would very likely be overthrown by them.
'boom. ’
"Then it's as they wish!"
Xu Shan slammed his fist into the map of 'Wanzhou', a ruthless look on his face.
Faced with the choice between rescuing Lu Ning and Xiao Chen's group and launching a surprise attack on Kuimen, Xu Shan chose the latter.
Firstly, he felt that with the strength of the Ghost Pavilion and his own backup plan in Wanzhou, they were capable of rescuing them.
Secondly, the most crucial part of his plan to launch a surprise attack on Kuimen was to immediately and silently take control of two of the Ten Witches of Coffin Mountain, Wu Zhen and Wu Li.
This ensured that the Danlei was buried inside the Kuimen Fortress.
Only he could do this personally.
It was precisely these two factors that caused the Ghost Pavilion to suffer heavy losses and subjected Lu Ning, Xiao Chen, and others to excessive torture.
At this moment, Xu Shan felt not only anger, but also self-reproach!
"Everyone has..."
'boom! ’
As soon as Xu Shan spoke, all the generals present stood up.
He looked up at the young man at the head of the group, head held high and chest out.
Even the commanders and deputy commanders of the two lakes naval forces who were cooperating with him for the first time were deeply impressed by his repeated ability to turn the impossible into the possible!
Therefore, he also felt great awe and respect for Xu Shan!
"Divide the troops into two groups!"
"They joined forces with the Jiangzhou garrison to launch a pincer attack on the main force of the Kuimen navy."
"The other route will follow this imperial envoy and march towards Wanzhou."
"I will obey Imperial Envoy Xu's orders."
"Depart immediately, without delay."
"Yes!"
Before departing, Xu Shan summoned the key generals who would accompany him to Wanzhou and explained his plan in detail.
"Remember, when all the troops of the Wudang Flying Army guarding the city surrender to this imperial envoy, the people of the Ghost Pavilion inside the city will cooperate with you to open the city gates."
"Until then, all you have to do is make sure that not a single fly gets out of the city."
"I want the heads of Wudang Flying Army and all the disciples of the Beggars' Sect to pay tribute to my fallen brothers."
