The Sacred Ding Chapter 285: The Demon Temple

In addition to the one-hundred-meter-thick quenched gold placer deposit at the bottom of the hanging lake at the source of the Luhe River, Lucheng, as the first stop from the Xixia Corridor to the Pinglu Oasis, is a must pass through the Jinyan Road; in the territory of Xiqiang, no matter Whether it is population size or wealth, Lucheng is second only to Wangcheng.

To say that Jingjue Duhufu can only occupy one city in the Pinglu Oasis, the best choice is Lucheng; no matter how weak the Ye family is, it is impossible to give up the royal city.

However, according to the situation collected by Du Linan, the Demon Temple and the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom that supported Zhang Xiong, Kong Peng and other thieves' rebellion behind the scenes have also been deployed in Lucheng early, with the strength of the outstanding army and the remnants of the Ye family. , No matter what method is used, it is extremely difficult to win Deer City, and a little carelessness, it is possible to completely push the forces of Deer City into the arms of Zhang, Kong and other rebels.

Chen Hai didn't have a plan to retreat, but asked Du Linan what clever ways to reduce the layout of the Demon Temple and the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom in Lucheng.

"Zhou Gu Zhang, Zhao Yang’s five surnames, although they are united in self-preservation, are not partial, and intend to live together between the Ye clan and the rebels, but at the root, even the Lucheng Zhang clan, who has the deepest entanglement with the rebel Zhang Xiong, I also don’t want to cut off the business with Hexi. This year’s cut, Wuxing’s loss is not small."

Du Linan sits upright. He won’t be so active after changing someone else, but Chen Hai has created too many miracles in his hands. Du Linan knows that he can help Jing Juejun capture Lucheng. Personally, It is also a wonderful work, enough to offset the clan’s grudge against him, said,

"Furthermore, Zhou, Gu, Zhang, Zhao, and Yang's five surnames are not monolithic. They have only held each other in control for the past two decades. If there is a chance for a dominant family, I believe no one will let it go."

Chen Hai nodded, knowing that Du Linan’s strategy was to divide the five surnames. Choose a cooperator from the five surnames to pry the deer city’s defenses from the inside, or it could be won with lightning speed. Lucheng can also destroy the Demon Temple and the layout of the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom in Lucheng with the momentum of thunder.

Next, Du Linan analyzed for Chen Hai the possible attitudes of the five surnames in Lucheng, the core figures of the five surnames, and who are more likely to be attracted by the Jingjue Protector.

Qi Hanjiang was initially wary of Du Linan and despised Du Linan, but after hearing his words, I have to admit that Du Linan is indeed superior to those arrogant and arrogant clan children. Place.

In addition, Chen Hai, Miao Xiong, He Dechang, and He Chengzhang entered Lucheng together, and they were able to conceal Du Linan’s eyes and ears. It can be seen that Du Linan presided over the Taiwei Hall. Although the available manpower was limited, the work was still extremely meticulous.

Liu Hanjiang feels that Du Linan’s strategy is worth a try. He patted his thigh and said: "Xu is a promise, I don’t worry about these turtle grandchildren not getting the bait."

Chen Hai's ability to quickly control the situation in Montenegro was also a promise to Deng Tong'er and the Han family to help Deng and Han become a family in Montenegro, which was supported by the children of the Han family and Deng Tong'er.

Chen Hai pondered for a while, and said to Du Linan: "Lucheng is prosperous due to business, and it is heavily dependent on business. This is the biggest difference between Lucheng and other cities in Pinglu, and it is also the key reason why we focus on Lucheng, but Mr. Du, among the five tribes, which one do you think is most likely to make every effort to cooperate with us without reservation?"

"The Zhang clan of Lucheng is an offshoot of the Zhang clan of Tianaishan. Zhang Xiong rebelled, and the Zhang clan of Lucheng advocated subordination to the rebellion. You can't expect them to cooperate with us unreservedly," Du Linan said, "Zhang Two surnames, Zhou and Zhou, fought for the water source of Nanyanjian in the southeast of Lu River two years ago. They killed and wounded more than a hundred tribesmen and had deep grievances. Regardless of Zhang, Zhou was a suitable target. In addition, Zhao The head of the family, Zhao Jin, whose grandmother is the daughter of a merchant in Tianshui County, Yanzhou, has a quarter of Yanzhou's blood in his body. It is also possible that his people admire the culture and habits of Yanzhou Xuanxiu sect in practice and daily life. The object of wooing-as to whether to choose Zhou or Zhao, it all depends on the state envoy to make a decision."

Such a big bargaining chip can only be opened to one family, and in the end choose Zhou or Zhao. Du Linan keeps his duty and only provides suggestions. In the end, Chen Hai has to make the decision.

"If the two surnames of Zhao and Zhou are easy to win, I believe that the Demon Temple must also be vigilant and guarded; and the Zhang family of Lucheng may have been drawn to the Demon Temple by this time, and they are all ready to respond to Zhang and Kong's rebelliousness. "Chen Hai didn't think things too simple.

"Even if the Demon Temple has been guarded, it will be unimpeded," Du Linan said, "Even in advance to induce the Demon Temple to attack the two surnames of Zhao Zhou, as long as it can disrupt the situation of the five surnames in Lucheng, I believe it can also give Jingjue. The army attacked Lucheng to create opportunities."

Qi Hanjiang's eyes began to change again at this time, thinking that this kid might not necessarily want to bring Zhao and Zhou's surnames together. In fact, as long as they do something here, they can successfully break the relationship between the five surnames in Lucheng. To completely disrupt and mess up the situation in Lucheng, they have achieved their goal.

"Okay, Master Du, you arrange for me to meet Zhao Jin." Chen Hai looked through the information of the Zhou and Zhao clan again, and said with determination.

"Ah" Du Linan froze there, hesitating for a long time and said, "Although Zhao Jin is easy to draw in, but he is not sure enough. The envoy saw Zhao Jin at this time, it was too dangerous."

Du Linan offered this strategy, mainly because he wanted to separate the five surnames, thinking that as long as he could pierce the five surnames and even induce the masters of the Demon Temple lurking in Lucheng to attack Zhao Jin and the Zhao family’s children, it would be successful. He never thought of allowing Chen Hai to meet Zhao Jin directly.

This is too dangerous.

This is in Lucheng, where the Zhao family gathers.

Zhao Jin is himself a strong man in the late Ming Aperture Stage, and it is impossible for them to invite Zhao Jin to meet alone; if Chen Hai goes to Zhao Jin’s mansion alone to meet, what will Zhao Jin detain Chen Hai do?

This is very likely to happen.

Zhao Jin and the Zhao clan have several choices in themselves, and which decision to make in the end is nothing but to maximize the interests of the Zhao clan.

If Chen Hai goes straight into the tiger's den and sends himself to Zhao Jin, then Chen Hai will become the most important bargaining chip in Zhao Jin's hands in exchange for the reward of the Demon Temple and in exchange for the Demon Temple to support Zhao's sole control of Deer City. There is no need at all. Take the risk and trade with Jing Juejun and Hexi again.

Chen Hai resolutely said: "If you don't get into the tiger's lair, it's hard to catch the tiger. You can arrange for me to meet Zhao Jin and see how Zhao Jin reacts."

Chen Hai knows that Du Linan's strategy is to make the water in Lucheng muddy, but when the water in Lucheng will become muddy, the timing is difficult to grasp.

Once Lucheng fell into chaos, Zhang and Kong rebelliously seized the King City of Xiqiang. They gathered 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers and horses in more than 300 miles. They could seize the opportunity and send troops to occupy Lucheng as soon as possible; while Montenegro is far from Lucheng. There are two thousand miles, and it is impossible to accurately determine the timing of sending troops, and then it is likely to be beyond reach.

"Will you meet at Tianxuan Lake?" Du Linan still felt that Chen Hai could not be allowed to enter the Du family's mansion to meet Du Jin, so they would not be able to seize the initiative at all.

Chen Hai nodded and agreed with Du Linan's suggestion. He is not a casual person.

*

We negotiated with Du Linan and handed over the rest of the staff to Du Linan to call. Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang hurried out of Lucheng before dark.

The Demon Temple has been deployed in Lucheng for a long time. Only the Changle City Lord’s Mansion is stuck in the caravan in Lucheng. There are two strong men, so that Du Linan can’t understand the depth. Even half-walking Dan-level characters.

If the Demon Temple has manpower, lurking in other stranded caravans, the number of elites deployed in the Demon Temple in Lucheng may be far beyond Chen Hai's imagination, and they must also send people to stare at Wuqiao. The movement of the alley-once Chen Hai's whereabouts are leaked, only a dozen people from Qi Hanjiang and the low-level disciples of Taiwei Guild Hall will not be able to protect Chen Hai's safety.

Wu Meng, Ge Tong and the others may not rush to Lucheng to meet Chen Hai until the day after tomorrow.

Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang led two thin horses along the west bank of the Lu River towards Wushaoling North Mountain.

The sky is dark, and the sky is covered with dense fish-scale clouds. It seems that there is a heavy rain waiting for them.

Standing on the banks of the Deer River, Chen Hai looked up at the fish-scale rain cloud, sighed slightly, and he looked a little hesitant on his face.

"Master, what are you sighing at this time?" Qi Hanjiang asked. He has been with Chen Hai for several years. He has been used to Chen Haiqi's frequent plots and decisive killings. Now that he has decided to meet Zhao Jin, I don't know why Chen Hai hesitated again.

"The Demon Temple has come back and is regaining control of the Golden State Eastern Regions. I am blocking them at this time. I don't know if this matter is good or bad." Chen Hai said.

"What is the Demon Temple? They want to control the countries of the Eastern Region of Jinzhou, why should we let them?" Qi Hanjiang asked puzzled.

Chen Hai smiled slightly~IndoMTL.com~ At this time, he couldn't explain the secret of the blood cloud wasteland to Qi Hanjiang.

The Demon Temple was once the highest sect of the Eastern Region of Golden State, and it was also regarded as the suzerain by the princes of the Eastern Region of Golden State. However, in the battle of the Western Expedition of Emperor Yitian, the power of the Demon Temple was too great, and only left Three Dao Dan realms led their disciples to retreat to the Dajin Mountain in the southern part of the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom to rest and recuperate, and they also lost control of the Jinzhou countries.

This time, it seems that the Tibetan and Qiang kingdom is secretly engaged in troubles, destroying the marriage between Hexi and Xiqiang, but after hearing Du Linan say that Lucheng hides two figures from the peak of the Ming Aperture realm or even half of Dao Dan, Chen Hai is convinced. In fact, the Demon Temple can't wait to come back from Dajinshan.

There are still four Dao Dan realm powers in the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom at this time. There may be more characters in the half-step Dao Dan level, but these characters are all core and soul figures of the Tibetan and Qiang patriarchal clan, so they should easily Will not give up the noble status, personally lurking to Lucheng.

It's like Dong Pu. Even if he meets Ye Qinglin in Montenegro temporarily, he will rush back to Tie Liuling to take charge of military and political affairs after meeting. Only Ge Xuanqiao is relatively leisurely and can stay in Montenegro as a guest.

The two characters lurking in Lucheng at this time must also be relatively idle masters in the Demon God Temple to get out and hide in Lucheng and wait for the situation to change.
