After receiving a satisfactory answer, Mi Yuyan did not want to waste any more time and nodded directly: "Okay, in that case, Mr. Chen will be responsible for bringing troops into Linnan. There are thousands of people hiding in Linnan Mountain, so there is no big problem. Yes, we can discuss the details with Uncle Ningde."

Seeing Chen Yuanting nodding, he looked at Shen Xiangqing again: "General Shen, you are responsible for the people under your command. In addition to the seventeen bandit villages outside of Yaozhi Peak, follow the map and find out clearly within three days. Is there any problem?"

Just as Shen Xiangqing was about to speak, Mi Yuyan said again: "In addition, General Shen, don't count yourself in. Zuomazhai, Yaozhi Peak, and the Dead Soldiers Camp require General Shen and I to go together. I don't know what General Shen wants." how?"

Shen Xiangqing obviously did not expect that Xuan Jiu in front of him would make such an arrangement. After thinking about it for a while, he knew that Xuan Jiu probably knew in his heart that he had doubts about this matter, so he chose to go with him. In this trip, inquiring is one thing, but getting rid of your suspicions is probably more important.

But Mr. Chen has clearly said that this battle will be under the command of Xuanjiu. As the highest decision-maker and commander of a battle, why does he need to personally take risks?

You know, inquiring into the enemy's situation is always the most dangerous thing, especially in a place like the Death Soldier Camp, where everything is done. According to the situation described by Tan Ba, he didn't know much about this place. Therefore, this is probably the uncertain factor that Xuan Jiu is most worried about!

Shen Xiangqing was silent for a moment, then raised his hands to Mi Yuyan and Tan Ba ​​and Pei Jie behind her, and gave a military fist salute. Then he stopped looking at Chen Yuanting and King Guangnan beside him, and spoke in a straight voice. :

"Shen is a martial artist who was born in the military. All the brothers under him have been together through life and death until now. Thanks to Xuan Jiu and several gentlemen, I have the opportunity to avenge my shame. However, if I don't understand some things clearly, I will always be worried. I'm uneasy, please ask Mr. Xuanjiu to help me clarify my doubts!"

Mi Yuyan's lips curled up slightly and she glanced at Chen Yuanting. Sure enough, before he could speak, he spoke: "Colonel Shen has forgotten that you are a soldier, and obeying orders is your only..."

"Okay, what General Shen wants to ask, just ask directly. I won't disappoint General Shen when you say it!" In fact, from the bottom of her heart, Mi Yuyan has been waiting for Shen Xiangqing to ask. If he Without asking anything, she would have to worry that this was a reckless man who could only blindly obey orders and not think carefully.

King Guangnan keenly discovered that his fifth brother was actively cooperating with the ninth lady of the Mi family in acting, which was very interesting. Not only was the ninth lady of the Mi family interesting, but his fifth brother's thoughts were also very interesting!

Shen Xiangqing breathed a sigh of relief. After Shangfeng gave the order, he still dared to question. If he was really in the Dragon Cavalry Guard and the Xuan Jiu in front of him was also a member of the Dragon Cavalry Guard, he would never and would not dare to overstep his bounds.

It's just that the identities and motives of the people in front of him are unknown. One of them has an unknown origin, and the other is obviously a traitor of the enemy. And this map, and the enemy's situation that all his brothers want to find out, all come from the information provided by this traitor. If there is an emergency, his brothers will never return, or even passively bring back information that can lead them into a trap. By then, he will die!

"I would like to ask Mr. Xuanjiu, where did you get this map?"

Mi Yuyan pointed at Tan Ba ​​and Pei Jie and said in a calm voice: "According to Tan Baye's instructions, Pei Jie and I completed it together."

"General Tan Baye's identity must have been clear to General Shen at the scene outside Huancheng that day, so I don't need to say more. As for this second brother Pei Jie, he came from Whispering Dark City more than two years ago. Those who escaped, there is evidence of this from the mountain gate."

"In addition, Second Brother Pei and Whispering Dark City have a hatred of annihilation. As for me, since I am called Xuanjiu, I come from the mountain gate. I wonder if General Shen is satisfied with this answer?"

Shen Xiangqing did not expect that Xuan Jiu would answer ten questions. He had never doubted Xuan Jiu's origin. After all, in a place like Shanmen, if a person could be fully responsible for cooperating with the Dragon Cavalry Guards, he was certainly not incompetent or unknown. Besides, what he just said probably already revealed that he was the masked man in Huancheng who intercepted and killed the people in Whirlpool Undercity.

Despite this, Shen Xiangqing confirmed it again, because they had to go out to explore the enemy's situation all the way. Only by fully understanding the abilities of their collaborators can they cooperate better: "So, sir, it was the one who persuaded Tan Baye to leave Huancheng that day. That masked man?”

Mi Yuyan raised her eyebrows: "General Shen should know what he's talking about. If you have any questions, just ask him directly. There's no need to beat around the bush."

Shen Xiangqing did not mention interception and killing, but only talked about persuading Tan Ba ​​to leave. Of course, it was not without purpose, but the soldiers' admiration for the strong could no longer be concealed in his words: "The general wanted to ask, what happened to Tan Ba ​​in the dark city?" He is such a majestic person, why did he join in with just a few words from you?"

Mi Yuyan glanced at Tan Ba ​​and raised her lips slightly. She actually wanted to make Tan Ba ​​feel at ease. This was the perfect opportunity: "The first time Ba Ye and I met was when he was chasing the second brother Pei and the second brother. Although I don’t know why he came to Linnan Mountain, he did not kill him in the end and spared the lives of Brother Pei and his two brothers.”

When Mi Yuyan said this, she took a deep look at Tan Ba: "So, Master Ba's life was left by himself! I am not merciful."

"As for the fact that I mentioned that I was fine that day, it was because I had visited Wushetang at night with my two brothers, Pei Er Ge, and I had some other doubts that day and wanted to get answers from the Eighth Master. Unexpectedly, Fortunately, Master Ba gave me the right guidance."

"The Eighth Master went up to the mountain and asked the Mountain Gate to give him medicine. Although the Mountain Gate disdained this, the Eighth Master was still open-minded and told everything he knew. The Eighth Master was not constrained by the Munan Palace and Whispering Dark City."

"As for the location and design of the bandit camp mentioned by Master Ba, although Brother Pei and his two brothers don't know as much detail as he does, they can still verify it, so General Shen doesn't need to worry about the brothers!"

"If what I expected was correct, one of the important duties of General Shen and his team when they entered the southwest was to explore the location and layout of these bandit villages. However, I did not expect that they are extremely cunning. Not only do they often change their nests, but their nests are also difficult to find. The infiltration, and even the evacuation route, were something General Shen had not anticipated.”

"So, General Shen's mission was in vain and a complete failure. General Shen should be grateful to Tan Baye for this flash of inspiration when he left Huan City, because the inner hall of Whirlpool Dark City was destroyed overnight, and the outer hall was intercepted and damaged. , his original intention was to fight to the death for the final victory, but he never expected that things would take such a turn, but he actually achieved the best chance of fighting."

Shen Xiangqing lost all face when being said that, and his face turned red with embarrassment, but after all, he was a Dragon Cavalry Guard who had been tempered many times. If he still couldn't guess Xuan Jiu's intention at this time, it would be a waste of his upbringing and training since childhood. Practiced.

He just waits for himself to ask, and then uses the most authentic answer to convince himself, and then uses the frustrations of the past few years to let himself know the shame. The key is to know the shame and then be brave!

Such a person, regardless of his martial arts and strategy, is rare even in Longqiwei, but he is actually just a young Taoist living in Wanshou Temple in the southwest. He should be younger than himself. Is this reasonable?

At this moment, Shen Xiangqing suddenly realized that he seemed to be led away from the original direction by his words, and couldn't help blurting out: "I wonder how Sir learned to draw a map?"

Shen Xiangqing's gaze went straight to Xuan Jiu's face, but he saw that he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, with some admiration in his eyes: "Yes, General Shen has a clear mind, no wonder Mr. Chen will Such an important mission is left in the hands of the general!"

"Although the general may not believe it when I tell you, I learned it in the Shanmen Library. It was not that difficult. Second Brother Pei also learned it quickly! But whether there is any fallacy in this picture, General Shen still needs to ask All the military lords should try to prove it!"

"Okay, that's it for today. At the beginning of tomorrow, I hope General Shen and all the military officers will be in high spirits and ready to go!" Although Shen Xiangqing was full of doubts about Xuan Jiu's answer, he didn't know how to refute it. Besides, this matter In front of him, it was indeed not the most important thing. The answer he got today was not just his doubts. He also had to give an explanation to his brother.

Seeing Shen Xiangqing bow and go out, Mi Yuyan looked at Chen Yuanting: "Master Chen, from now on, Master Tan will follow you! Master Ba, what do you think?"

Tan Ba ​​knew that this was not about asking about his own choice, but about protecting himself and proving his innocence. No matter whether he won or lost in this battle, he could only ensure that he was safe and sound by sending himself under the nose of Master Chen. It's just that he never thought that the follow-up the girl mentioned was not just a temporary expedient.

Chen Yuanting understood what Mi Yuyan meant and immediately made a welcome gesture to Tan Ba.

Things here are temporarily suspended. Mi Yuyan still needs to go to see Yu Wanzhen. She will definitely not be able to show up in front of her in the next few days.

Mi Yuyan was about to turn around and go out, but Chen Yuanting stopped her: "Xuan Jiu, go slowly!"

"What else is there? If you're not in a hurry, you can talk slowly. I'm in a hurry right now!"

Chen Yuanting suddenly remembered that she was probably in a hurry to see the sister of the Yu family, so he immediately stopped holding her back and just asked: "I wonder if Xuan Jiu already knows the strategy for this battle?"

"We have a preliminary idea. We still need to explore the Death Soldier Camp before it can finally take shape. We will then report it to you for discussion and detailed consideration. Please forgive Xuan Jiu for being ignorant and take the first step!"

When only King Guangnan and Chen Yuanting were left, they followed Chen Hai back to the guest house. King Guangnan said with an unknown smile: "I didn't expect that after three years of not seeing each other, my fifth brother's temperament would change so much. Now he can be with us." People who have known each other for only a few days have become double-acted..."

Chen Yuanting had no intention of hiding anything. Anyway, this man had already demonstrated extraordinary abilities in front of King Guangnan. He was not afraid that his elder brother would think too much about it. He nodded calmly: "Brother, I didn't understand what it means to fall in love with each other at first sight." , seeing Xuan Jiu, I finally understood that these four words were not empty words."

King Guangnan raised his thick black eyebrows and turned to look at Chen Yuanting. He saw that he was not embarrassed at all. No matter how he looked at him, he only looked at him firmly and sincerely. He couldn't help but laugh: "That's right. After the New Year, my fifth brother also It’s time to be thirty, and when things get better here, I should ask the Heavenly Family to give my fifth brother a suitable marriage, but I don’t know which girl has such a blessing.”

After saying that, he ignored Chen Yuanting and turned to look at the stunned Chen Hai: "Ah Hai, tell me, was your master beaten by Xuan Jiu this morning?"

Chen Hai: "..." He understood everything, but he didn't seem to understand at all. He didn't understand. He followed his father every day, and he didn't even know when his father treated the ninth lady of the Mi family. He was so moved, and he didn't even understand that at such a tense moment when the war was about to begin, his father would still have such thoughts.

What is love at first sight? The first time his father met the ninth lady of the Mi family, shouldn't it be when he almost cut his neck with a tree leaf? You almost lost your life, but you still feel like old friends at first sight? When did their father become so unreliable?

But then again, this morning, their father must have taken the initiative to seek a beating. After all, that was what he had thought about that day.

It seems that his father really can't beat the ninth wife of the Mi family. If his father's dream really comes true in the future, and the one-sided hit-me-down relationship turns into a two-way relationship, then what status will his father have in the family in the future?

But the ninth lady of the Mi family doesn't seem to be that unreasonable little lady. No matter what he says, aren't you still thinking about her father's injury today and sending him so many cold-water stick fish? By the way, the fish is still really delicious, regardless of whether it is good for healing or not...

"Chen Hai, I have a question for you!"

"Ah, if I tell you, that fish is quite delicious!"

……

Chen Yuanting directly ignored Chen Hai's second question and changed the subject: "Brother, I'm afraid I have to send someone to invite General Wu to come over. There are some things that can't be explained clearly even through messages."

When it came to business matters, King Guangnan was unambiguous: "I'll ask Wu Chuan to go there later. If I can get evidence this time that the Menan Palace is raising dead soldiers, I can let Linnanguan Camp make a fuss. "

Chen Yuanting frowned slightly: "I'm afraid that my eldest brother will be disappointed. Since the Yunan Palace dares to put the death camp here, it will naturally leave nothing behind. Furthermore, it is easy to kill, but extremely difficult to collect evidence. In any case, we cannot fight The damage is too great, but based on my understanding of Xuan Jiu, I'm afraid she will find another way."

"Now that the east and west grain roads have been cut off by Fifth Brother, and the Whispering Dark City has been destroyed, if we can destroy these bandit strongholds, it will be equivalent to cutting off the hands and feet of King Yunan. If we get some bait at this time, for example, we can keep the grain roads as they are Open up and use other methods. If you can lure the snake out of the hole, you can end the matter here as soon as possible." King Guangnan narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was looking forward to it.

Chen Yuanting shook his head and said: "There is not much hope. The old fox King Menan is extremely suspicious. If he is not completely sure, he will definitely hide in Menan and dare not take action. If we attack rashly, it will run counter to our original idea. The people of Yunan are also the people of Dayun."

The King of Guangnan sighed slightly: "Who would have expected that in this place in the southwest, we would be the ones who are against the odds!"

Suddenly the weather changed, it was so cold, my hands were frozen. Please vote!
