The Book of Troubled Times Chapter 521

  Chapter 521 No fluke

  Puyang.

   "Boom!" The stones hit the city wall, the city bricks shattered and splashed, and the surrounding soldiers quickly dispersed into a mess.

  The stone rolled over and was about to be crushed on a soldier. The purple energy around him surged wildly, and a palm slapped on the stone, blasting the stone into pieces.

  The soldier was shocked, and saluted to thank him: "Thank you, Young General."

  Cui Yuanyong waved his hand and shouted: "Let go!"

   "Whoosh, whoosh!" There were also countless huge boulders falling outside the city, and there were several loud bangs, and the approaching car was smashed into pieces.

   Some hits were inaccurate, and they fell on the soldiers, smashing them into meat paste.

   There are still countless soldiers swarming in, all kinds of siege equipment desperately pushing down the city.

  Standing at the top of the city and looking at it, the arrows in the sky are like locusts and boulders are falling, and the thousands of horses and troops below are coming like a tide. Cui Yuanyong felt very detached, and his heart was as calm as if this was not the battlefield he was in, but overlooking it from a high altitude.

   It's not like in Yanmen back then, where I didn't give myself a chance to get my blood pumped. Now he is the chief general, in charge of all defense commands, and needs to be absolutely calm. Any wrong choice may lead to unacceptable results.

  As early as the decisive battle in southern Kuaiji, Wang Zhaoling intended to go south. After Cui Yuanyong suppressed Puyang and put pressure on the Wang family, he never went back. My father didn't take any chances. He knew that if the Wang family rebelled, this would be the first pass on the western front. Therefore, he continued to increase troops and manage the city defense. The defense here was almost the strongest in the civil war.

  Cui Yuanyong once thought that Puyang was so difficult to chew, and the Wang family would probably not choose this route. Facts have proved that the old man's prediction was the most correct. The nature of the Wang family is meaningless to attack the south. Taking advantage of the fact that the Cao Gang in the south is acting as a monster, the Tang family can't interfere with the affairs of the north for the time being.

  The capital is in the north, and the Wang family wants to go to the capital. The first thing they have to pass is the Cui family. Cui Wang's marriage originally had some meaning in this regard. The two sides merged, and basically they could directly march to the capital.

  But now Cui Wenjing doesn't talk about joining forces, he doesn't even do the swinging basics of a family that “pretends to resist but actually gives way to the Wang family to sneak past”, showing the comprehensive resistance of chariots and horses. Inside the Cui family, there were also some criticisms, thinking that it was inappropriate for Cui Wenjing to do so so that the Cui family would have no way out.

  But no one can say that it's not easy. Cui Wenjing's determination in this matter even surprised his own wife. It doesn't feel like Cui Wenjing.

Cui Yuanyong remembered what he asked his father before: "Father said that there are also families of gods and demons in the world of gods and demons. Even if gods and demons rule the world, it is essentially no different from the entry of barbarians. Why are you so determined this time? Proper Daxia Zhongliang..."

My father's answer was: "When a barbarian enters the customs, you will shave your hair and change your clothes and customs. The Cui family is still there. Even other gods and demons. As long as He needs to survive in this world, you and I are valuable. Only the sea The family is different...Because they live in the sea and don't need land. My father really doesn't know what their specific purpose is, I just need to know that their living conditions are different from ours, and I know that I can't take any chances."

   After finishing speaking, he repeatedly emphasized: "You can't take any chances."

  Cui Yuanyong took a deep breath, held up his long sword, and ordered loudly: "The rolling stone is ready!"

   "Boom!" The car rushed to the city gate braving rocks and arrows.

  The huge boulder rolled down, smashing people and cars to pieces.

   Cui Yuanyong looked up at the sky, but it was still difficult to focus on the battlefield. I believe Wang Zhaoling under the city was the same... because the result of this battle depends not so much on the battlefield command, but on the outcome of the Tianbang battle.

  Wang Daoning in the first battle must have been recruited himself, in order to make a big impact. If he was beaten back in the first battle, it would be a big joke in the world, he is bound to win. No matter how well the city defense is done, it is impossible to stop the Tianbang from ascending first, breaking the gap is like playing.

  But Wang Daoning has not shown up so far, there is no other reason, only the possibility that his father also came.

  On the banks of the Pu River, Wang Daoning and Cui Wenjing stood side by side facing the river, as if old friends who had not met for a long time were looking at the scenery.

  The two of them didn't speak for half an hour.

  The sound of shouting and killing came faintly from a distance, which inexplicably set off the sound of the water in front of me with a sense of tranquility.

   "The dead are like husbands, never giving up day and night." Wang Daoning looked at the water, and finally said softly: "How many years have you and I known each other?"

  Cui Wenjing said: "I left home for a study tour when I was sixteen. I met you in Pushui and had a fight...it has been thirty years now."

  The so-called "Old Cui" is actually only forty-six.

   "It's Pushui again today, um, although the section of the river is different." Wang Daoning said with a "ha" smile: "Sometimes when I think about it, it seems like God's will."

  Cui Wenjing said lightly: "You don't have to come, what you do by yourself is God's will."

Wang Daoning shook his head: "A few years ago when I was a guest in Qinghe, your attitude was not like this. Although you have always been inclined towards Xia Longyuan, you still scolded Xia Longyuan for doing many things that were inappropriate. He laid his hands down, scolded this guy and continued to pervert, and sooner or later Daxia will be overthrown... This is what you said. The words and conversations of the past are vivid in my memory, but your choice today makes me very puzzled."

  Cui Wenjing said: "When you attack the Yang Family's Lianshan Sword, you and I are doomed to cut seats. This is the bottom line that you are shaking the basis of the tacit understanding between the various families. No matter how bad Xia Longyuan is, he also left the bottom line there."

   "Just because of this?"

   "Because of this."

   "What if I promise you?"

   "Sorry, I don't believe it." Cui Wenjing said lightly: "I'm not even sure, the Wang Daoning who is talking to me now, how much is the real Wang Daoning, and how much is someone else."

  Wang Daoning smiled: "No one can control me."

  Cui Wenjing said: "Shi Wuding also thinks so."

  People in Tianbang, as long as they have seen Shi Wuding, they will know that his soul is different. Cui Wenjing knew it, and so did Wang Daoning.

  Wang Daoning said: "You think I'm in an uncertain situation?"

Cui Wenjing glanced at him: "I don't know, but I don't take chances. If there is one thing that makes you not you, then I don't think I can see it. The triple secret is far from the end, you and I know it. "

   "Since you have completely lost trust in me, there is really no way to talk."

   "There is no need to talk about it."

   "But you are not my opponent, Wen Jing, you and I have always been equal, but my Zhenhai sword has recovered, and your Qinghe sword is still half dead."

  Cui Wenjing smiled: "Perhaps. But you are not sure that you will not be injured, so you are trying to make a final persuasion."

  Wang Daoning said slowly: "But you will die."

  Cui Wenjing's smile was even brighter: "If I die and you return home with a serious injury, the outcome will depend on Yuan Yong and Zhaoling... After you and I sing, it's time for them to appear in this world."

  Cui Wenjing's smile had a little complacency that made Wang Daoning feel helpless.

  If the older generation withdraws from the world stage and the young people all over the world come on stage, then there will be a character who makes the peers breathless will immediately flash through everyone's minds - the book of chaos just said, when I bloom, a hundred flowers will die.

   This person is Lao Cui's son-in-law, although he is not married yet.

  But I have to say that Cui Wenjing's resoluteness inevitably moved Wang Daoning a little bit.

  Thirty years of acquaintance, the first time I saw this old fox being so decisive, "No luck", the future of the family is better than his life.

  When such a person becomes a roadblock, it can really give anyone a headache.

  Wang Daoning finally gave up his persuasion and slowly drew out the Zhenhai sword: "Brother Cui, then let you and I finish the unfinished battle thirty years ago."

  Qinghe Sword unsheathed automatically, and surrounded Cui Wenjing: "Please."

   "Boom!" There was a sudden thunder in the sky, and the torrential rain poured down.

  On the battlefield, Wang Zhaoling had to suspend the siege, so he couldn't ascend the city.

   But today's sky is clearly not going to rain. There is no other reason for the sudden rainstorm. It can only be the battle of Tianbang, which touches the sky.

  Wang's Paitian Zhenhai and Cui's Ziqi Qinghe are both related to water, and when they are opposite, there will be heavy rain.

  Above and below the city, Cui Yuanyong and Wang Zhaoling looked across the battlefield, and both felt their hearts tugging at the same time.

  A hundred miles to the south, the sky was clear and clear. Three thousand Blood God Cultists rode horses and galloped across the plains. Looking at the dark clouds in the distance, they were all shocked: "Why is there rain in this weather?"

  Zhao Changhe took the lead, and left the team like crazy: "You are going to attack the Wang family's flank, and Lao Xue has full authority to command, don't worry about me!"

   "Boom!" Huge lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the entire wilderness in a vast expanse of whiteness. The clouds turned into purple air, and it was hard to tell whether it was lightning or sword light.
