"King! Do you want to dispatch troops back to the royal city for support?!"
"No! We can rebuild the city after we destroy it! Now is the best time to pursue Yan Changqing and Yan Changhuai. He is dreaming if he wants to disrupt our strategy by cutting off the source of our troubles!"
The Monkey gritted his teeth, with a sinister and paranoid look in his eyes.
"To catch a thief, we must first catch the leader! As long as we can capture Yan Changqing, the dilemma of the capital will naturally be solved!
Yan Changhuai forgot that he was familiar with this swamp, and so was I! I had already made arrangements, just waiting to drive the dog into the alley!
Yinhu, go back to the capital and follow the plan!
The rest of the generals, listen up! Two thousand soldiers will block this exit, and the rest of you will follow me to Nanwenglin!"
There is a way to life at the end of the dead swamp.
It’s Nanwenglin!
It will be dawn.
The rain is gradually stopping.
The royal city was in chaos and in ruins.
Bai Xiang and Jin Duobao accompanied the dragon riders and saw the so-called "battlefield" for the first time in their lives in the Eagle King's Palace.
There were corpses everywhere, blood flowing like a river, and wailing everywhere.
When two armies fight, it is only a matter of life and death, no mercy.
Da Rui's specially trained elite soldiers walked out of the Mobei wilderness and won the first battle, but neither of them could be happy.
"It would be great if there were no wars. The continent is so big, and everyone can live their own lives in their own corner and guard their own piece of land..."
"But people are ambitious."
Everyone was silent.
Ambition is sometimes the most terrifying thing.
"This is Huai Yang's first time leading an army. The Xiao family's men are worthy of their reputation!" Jin Duobao forced a smile and changed the topic to break the dull atmosphere. "It's just a pity for the old general. I don't know what the old lady has been doing to him during this period."
"It seems that the feud between Brother Changqing and his second brother has become even bigger."
"… Saving those diehard fans of Haizhu should make up for some of the mistakes, right?"
The two looked at each other and sighed.
This is a difficult knot to untie.
Suddenly, a young general Da Rui came running over. "Miss Lin, Master Jin, the situation outside the palace has changed. When the soldiers were searching the city, they found that the east wall had collapsed. There were many footprints inside and outside the wall. They suspected that Shen Hou's men had sneaked into the city! Major General Xiao told you two to stay in the palace and not run around! This is the safest place right now. He will come to pick you up after he has cleared out the remaining evil!"
After saying this, the young general hurried away.
Bai Xiang frowned, suspicious. "The royal city has been captured. Our Da Rui soldiers are patrolling everywhere in the city to search for remnants. Why are Shen Hou's people sneaking back now?"
The royal capital has been breached, and Brother Changqing has attracted at least half of Shenhou's troops.
There are still 100,000 soldiers from Da Rui pressing in from outside the country. If Shen Hou does not have the strength to turn the tide, sending people back at this time is simply seeking death.
Bai Xiang doesn't believe that the Monkey would be so stupid.
Jin Duobao didn't believe it either. He touched his chin and smacked his lips. "Yan Changqing is alone, Shen Hou should chase him relentlessly. What is he planning? Is he looking down on our Da Rui elite soldiers? Doesn't he know that the old general's men can fight ten to one?"
This is not an exaggeration.
Ten years ago, General Xiao returned to the village from Changjing. On the surface, he was devoted to his retirement, but in private he was following the emperor's orders.
Secretly training troops for the country in the wilderness.
At least one-third of the herb grown in the village is used to improve the soldiers' physique. After ten years of feeding, each soldier is as strong as an ox and can kill a mountain beast with one punch.
For example, their little Yang Yang, at the age of nine, could fight against wolves alone in the mountains...
With doubts in his mind, Bai Xiang could not stay any longer and turned around to go out to see what was going on.
On the other side, in the dilapidated houses in the southeast, the patrol soldiers of Da Rui had just patrolled this place. The people in this area were all hiding in their houses with their doors closed. It was very quiet.
The corner of the wall near the entrance of a residential house.
Old man Zhang felt relaxed all over. He squatted down against the wall, not minding the mud on his back. He took out his pipe with interest, ready to take a few puffs to relieve his excitement.
Things here will be settled soon and I can go home.
At that time, he will go back with Da Rui’s army.
He didn't want to stay in this shabby place where sheep dung dried up easily even for a moment.
Where is the best home?
In Wutong Town, in the winery, he had that small room of his. He didn't know if anyone new had moved in, or if the winery had reserved a room for him.
When we get back, I’ll take my wife to the dining hall for a good meal.
Thinking of something happy, he grinned.
People who always have a gloomy face and never smile, their smile is more stiff and uglier than crying.
Thump, thump——
There were sounds of people climbing over the wall and falling to the ground on the other side of the wall. There were quite a few people, but the noise was very slight.
The smile that Old Man Zhang was trying to force froze on his face, and he slowly put it away, preparing to sneak away while the other party was not paying attention.
He was a half-spy who entered the industry when he was in his fifties. He was simply repaying favors and never thought of making any great contribution.
I just want to be able to return to where I came from after everything is settled, and enjoy my old age.
The rest of the matters had nothing to do with him. The soldiers and generals of Da Rui had all arrived and they would do the work.
"Go and move all the boxes out of the cellar!"
"Each of you take a portion of the herbs in the box and spread them out in different directions in the city! Remember to take the antidote first, and also avoid the patrol soldiers of Dari, don't get discovered!"
"...General, do you really want to do this? This dragon sheep grass is extremely poisonous after burning. If the people in the city inhale the poisonous smoke, they will die!"
"If you want to accomplish great things, you can't be soft-hearted! The royal city has been occupied by Da Rui. Do you think they will treat the people of the Eagle Tribe well? While they are still in the city, we should kill them all here. Yan Changqing will die without any reinforcements! Only the Eagle Tribe can send troops to Da Rui! This is our last and best chance!"
"Okay! We will listen to the general! If you attack Dari one day, I will sacrifice the blood of Dari people ten times or a hundred times to the people of my Eagle Tribe who sacrificed their lives for the cause!"
Separated by a wall.
Old man Zhang, who was crouching and standing on tiptoe, stopped.
He tilted his head and looked through the wall at the source of the sound, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
Dog day!
In a moment, fire suddenly appeared on the roof near the house.
Just as it was getting light, flames and smoke immediately attracted the attention of the patrol soldiers of Da Rui, who ran over here.
Old man Zhang's face was grim, his eyes were bloodshot, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat caused by the pain, which was dripping down in big beads.
When he saw the patrolmen from Da Rui coming from a high place, his mouth twisted and his facial features distorted.
This was the best warning he could think of.
A heavy rain soaked the royal city, and there was nothing to burn outside the house to give a warning.
There were people in every house, and there was no way to go into the house to look for them, for fear of making a noise and alerting the enemy.
I went to the patrolman to complain in person, but I was afraid that I would not have enough time.
It is even more impossible to shout and yell, which will also result in failure.
The only solution Old Man Zhang could think of was to burn himself.
He poured the strong liquor from the jug at his waist into his hands, ignited the fire, and black smoke suddenly rose.
The effect is surprisingly good, but it hurts too much.
He turned his head to look in the direction of Da Rui, but unfortunately he was afraid that he couldn't lie down in the coffin that the old woman bought for him.
The patrolmen arrived quickly and surrounded the residential area in no time. At this time, Shen Hou's subordinates who had gone to the cellar to move wooden boxes had just climbed out carrying the boxes.
They were caught red-handed and captured in one fell swoop.
