Chapter 228: Conquer the Xiao Kingdom and win a great victory!
Seeing Bai Lianyi being brought all the way back to the Thunder Elite by Shang Wu, Li Zhenting wanted to slap him.
Does he think that conquering the country of Xiao is a child's play and that he can come just by saying so?
Not to mention the difficult journey and the various unpredictable situations he would encounter, even the assassins from the Night Palace of the Xiao Kingdom were no easy task. Bai Lianyi was the only son of his uncle, the Prince of Pingnan. If anything went wrong with him, wouldn't it be a sin?
Bai Lianyi's brows were furrowed in confusion, and he felt something was amiss. He had clearly set out from Kyoto on the third day of the twelfth lunar month. Given the speed of his horse, he would have needed to keep on chasing the Thunder Army, changing horses several times along the way. Even if he used his Qinggong skills to keep chasing them, it would still take him seven or eight days to catch up.
The horse was still the same horse, and he had not used any lightness skills, so how did he suddenly appear in the tent?
Also, he seemed to have something in his mind, which seemed to be related to his second sister-in-law and Li Laoer, but the puzzling thing was that he could not remember it no matter what.
"If you're not good at it, practice more! If you can't afford to play, don't play! Wouldn't it be nice to just stay in the mansion and eat and drink? Why run out and get yourself killed? If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been kidnapped by those two thieves!"
"Those two thieves planned to kidnap you and make a fortune from the Prince of Pingnan! Furthermore, those two thieves rushed to Kyoto from the Great Desert Kingdom, ready to attack their master!"
Originally, Fang Qingqing told Shang Wu not to mention this matter in front of Li Zhenting, but Shang Wu had a hot temper and couldn't help it!
"The assassins from the Desert Kingdom are planning to attack Qing'er?"
Li Zhenting was furious. The last time Wanyan Honglie had challenged him in Great Yan, Great Yan had always treated him with courtesy, ultimately forcing him to submit and return to the desert. If it weren't for the greater good, based on Wanyan Honglie's covetousness of Qing'er's beauty, he could easily have killed him on his way back home!
"If you're a man, complete your mission as soon as possible and return to Kyoto! If you're not worried about the master, I am!"
"I have to go back to the Dark Night Palace right now! I just entered the Dark Night Palace and I can't show any flaws!"
Shang Wu glared at Li Zhenting angrily and ran out. "Damn Li Zhenting! There must be no mistakes in the internal and external coordination in five days! We must ensure that he returns to Kyoto before the master gives birth!"
Don't underestimate him because he only has a hint of spiritual consciousness. He knows a lot. Giving birth is like going through hell. Only when the child's father is by his side can one feel at peace!
Ever since he entered Mingye Palace as Shangwu, relying on the face made by Xuan Qingshan that was no different from the real person, and some of Shangwu's habits told by Fang Qingqing, such as the habitual contemptuous squinting, cold snorting and shrugging of shoulders, no one could find any flaws.
The Mingye Palace is located in a mansion not far from the Xiao Kingdom's imperial palace. Yang Xiao's half-brother Yang Ye is the current king of the Xiao Kingdom. On the first day Shang Wu returned to the Mingye Palace, Yang Ye summoned Yang Xiao.
This meeting really scared Shang Wu. If he looked about 70% to 80% like Yang Xiao, then he and Yang Ye looked almost exactly like each other!
He seriously suspected that this Shang Wu was the missing prince of Xiao Kingdom!
That night he couldn't wait to report the news to Fang Qingqing truthfully. When Fang Qingqing heard it, she immediately came up with a plan.
God is truly helping us. If that's the case, why not use their tricks against us? Using someone else as a substitute, then taking down the Xiao Kingdom would be as easy as taking something from a can!
The country is in chaos!
With irrefutable evidence that Yang Xiao, the master of Mingye Palace, was plotting a rebellion, King Yang Ye dispatched troops directly to the palace! Yang Xiao, having recently returned from a long absence, was stabbed to death in the melee. That very night, the Mingye Palace, which he had built, was engulfed in flames, burning all night until only four walls remained!
"Report!"
"The Second Prince of Great Yan, Li Zhenting, has led over a thousand elite soldiers and surrounded us! Even more terrifying, they possess a large number of powerful weapons..."
Just when "Yang Ye" led his troops to attack Mingye Palace, explosions suddenly sounded all around. The raging flames lit up half the sky, and the originally sturdy castle was razed to the ground!
The sounds of explosions came one after another, and the cries, shouts and yells were mixed together in a chaotic manner, making the scene very noisy.
"Boom boom boom!"
Amidst the roar of explosions, a large, wheeled armored vehicle advanced forward, its path sending streams of flames blazing from within. The flames swept through the air, filling the air with choking smoke, and any soldiers caught in the crossfire were killed instantly!
What was even more terrifying was that a thing that looked like a spirit turtle rumbled into the city behind the armored man. Amid the sound of flames, it directly broke through the palace wall and attacked directly into the palace!
For a time, the morale of the army was low, and the army of Xiao State had no intention of fighting at all. Many generals gave up resistance and surrendered.
Li Zhenting drove a large truck, Fengying and Leiying drove a tank, and they brought an elite group of thunder soldiers equipped with machine guns and grenades. They drove straight in, quickly occupied the palace, and directly took down the Xiao Kingdom!
This was the most exhilarating battle Li Zhenting had ever fought since he led his troops into battle! In just an hour, they had captured the imperial city of Xiao Nation!
"Yang Ye" directly advocated surrender. To show his determination to surrender, "Yang Ye" took off his yellow robe on his own and held a white flag to show surrender!
Without any effort, the Thunder Elite won a great victory!
Li Zhenting naturally understood that if it were not for the powerful weapons provided by Qing'er and the internal and external support of Shangwu, how could this battle have ended so smoothly.
He was extremely anxious and wanted to return to Kyoto immediately to report the good news to Qing'er!
"Kazekage, Raikage, stay here to deal with the aftermath. I will immediately return to Kyoto with the Fourth Brother!"
"Let Xuan Qingshan stay and help deal with the aftermath..."
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, "Yang Ye" suddenly looked up and said to Li Zhenting.
Looking up at Xuan Qingshan who suddenly appeared in front of him as if he had metamorphosed, Li Zhenting didn't understand what was going on for a moment!
How could "Yang Ye" actually be Shang Wu? And when did Xuan Qingshan come to Xiao Nation?
"It's a long story. Some things really can't be explained clearly in a few words. In a word, the reason why this expedition to Xiao Nation went smoothly is all thanks to my second sister-in-law! Second brother, my second sister-in-law is about to give birth. The Wind Shadow and the Raikage and I will stay here to take care of the aftermath. Second brother, please return as soon as possible!"
Xuan Qingshan said with infinite emotion that this tactic of using someone else as a substitute was all planned by his second sister-in-law. Shang Wu found an opportunity to directly replace Yang Ye, while Xuan Qingshan put on a mask to pretend to be Yang Xiao. After a fake fight between the two, "Yang Xiao" died in battle, and Shang Wu captured the Mingye Palace effortlessly!
The only regret was that Yang Ye had slipped through the net and could not be found even after searching the entire city.
Li Zhenting patted Xuan Qingshan's shoulder vigorously. The third brother was calm and steady in his character. With the help of Fengying and Leiying, he could naturally handle the aftermath of the Xiao Kingdom properly. What he had to do now was to go home!
In order to save time, he made a prompt decision and decided to drive a large truck and return to the city immediately with Bai Lianyi!
Amid the rumbling sound of the truck engine, the big truck sped away towards the direction of Dayan Kyoto!
Several dark shadows quickly followed along with their light skills...
