A dream ends life

Chapter 249 Is It a Coincidence?

Yu Luohan's battle was not going well.

Ever since King Cheng joined, he has been extremely angry.

Facing King Cheng's cavalry, his soldiers were like leeks waiting to be harvested, being reaped one after another.

"Have you found out?" Yu Luohan's voice was cold.

The general under his command said, "Your Highness, it is still unclear who this person is, but what is certain is that there must be a master behind King Cheng who is helping him."

Yu Luohan: "Is that person in the camp?"

Young General: "Our people have not been able to sneak into King Cheng's camp, but there are traces of someone staying on the top of the mountain."

When their people went to the mountains, the man should have just left and the tea on the table was still warm.

Yu Luohan pinched his brows, wondering who was helping King Cheng.

This man was proficient in battle formations and was very familiar with the combat tactics of the two armies. He not only predicted their marching routes, but also had an advantage in the battle.

He couldn't do anything about them.

Find this person. If you can't use him for your own benefit, you'll have to get rid of him.

Yu An walked in and reported: "Your Majesty, there is news."

Yu Luohan looked up: "Where is it?"

Yu An was responsible for tracking Xie Qi's whereabouts, and finally got some good news after many days.

Yu An said, "They are hiding in a cave thirty miles southwest of the military camp. Your Majesty, please send troops immediately!"

Yu Luohan twisted his fingers, "Are you sure?"

Yu An nodded: "Sure, when I come back, I'll send someone to guard there, and they'll report immediately if there's any movement."

Yu Luohan said: "We will set off in an hour."

He stood up and ordered the young general to calmly select two hundred elite soldiers.

Xie Qi is too cunning, he must take him down in one fell swoop this time.

"Your Highness, look!" A soldier ran up to Yu Luohan with an unopened letter in his hand.

Yu Luohan's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling.

There were only two words on the envelope: Cheng Zhi.

Yu Luohan opened the letter and his face turned dark after reading the contents.

The letter said that Cheng Zhi was at Yanhuiling, thirty miles southwest. If Yu Luohan wanted her back, he should prepare a ransom of 100,000 silver coins.

Yu Luohan clutched the piece of letter paper tightly, veins on his forehead exposed.

If you say this is a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence.

He had just received information about Xie Qi's whereabouts, and Cheng Zhi also had a clue.

Both parties arrived neither early nor late, but appeared at the same time, which made him suspect that it was done by one person.

Thirty miles southwest!

They are all thirty miles southwest!

Was this asking him to choose between the two, or was it asking him to flatten the place and kill two birds with one stone?

He was a little confused about the other party's purpose.

If someone wanted to make things difficult for him, they shouldn't have put one in the east and the other in the west, making him feel torn. But this person actually put the two of them in places where the direction and distance are almost the same. What on earth was he trying to do?

Xie Qi's capture of Wu Peiyi must have been a desperate struggle. Yu An chased him all the way from Shangjing to here. Even if he wasn't caught, it wouldn't be easy for him.

He probably doesn't have the ability to rescue Cheng Zhi from Prince Yu's Mansion.

Is he overthinking it? It's really a coincidence.

Yu An asked, "Master, why don't we take a large army over there? No matter what kind of monsters they are, they will be nowhere to hide."

Yu Luohan waved his hands, this is where the difficulty lies.

If we bring fewer people, we may not be able to rescue both of them at the same time.

If he brought too many people and made too much noise, those people would get wind of the news and scatter into the mountains. Where would he find them?

Also, rescuing people must be done in order of priority. He may find the location of two people accurately at the same time, but it would be very difficult to rescue them at the same time without letting the other party notice the clues.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that the other party wanted him to make a choice.

Just when he was struggling to make a decision, battle reports came from the front.

"Your Majesty, King Cheng's cavalry has retreated. Only King San's men are left to fight us."

Yu Luohan couldn't believe it. Why would King Cheng retreat at this time? You know, the situation was very good for him.

Anyone would have pursued the victory, so why did he just retreat like that?

Yu Luohan just felt that there was a conspiracy here.

He was not surprised if any of the three kings retreated, but he felt uneasy only when King Cheng retreated.

When you are in a high position for a long time, everything you think about will inevitably be conspiracy theories.

In fact, he was really wronged to become king.

Two hours ago, in the camp of the Four Kings.

The four princes sat in the central military tent, drinking tea and discussing the situation on the battlefield.

The King of Yunzhou said, "If we continue to fight like this, it won't be long before Yu Luohan is driven back to his hometown in Qiannan. Old Seven, your cavalry is quite capable."

King Cheng sat upright, put down his tea bowl with a serious face and said, "You are not going to send troops?"

These three men just waited for his cavalry to charge forward, and their men followed behind to take advantage of the opportunity.

The shamelessness is outrageous!

The King of Pizhou said, "How could that be? Our soldiers are all infantry, and they can't outrun your cavalry. How about this, Old Seven? Let your cavalry just charge forward, and our people will follow to help them out, so they don't have to worry about anything. What do you think?"

King Cheng gritted his teeth and really wanted to spit in their faces.

"If you do this, do you think you are acknowledging that I am the leader of the coalition forces?"

Uh……

King Yunzhou was silent.

The King of Pizhou lowered his head as if thinking about something, but no one knew what he was thinking about.

Prince Yu narrowed his eyes, slowly put down the tea bowl, and snorted coldly: "Seventh Brother, we are your brothers, don't you understand the principle of brotherly love and respect for younger brothers?"

King Cheng glanced at him with a look of sarcasm on his face: "If I didn't know how to be friendly and respectful to my brothers, my third brother would have been killed long ago. Who did I come all the way here for?"

Prince Yu rolled his eyes. It wasn’t for him anyway.

Don’t think he doesn’t know. When the kidnappers asked for a ransom, these three people didn’t pay a penny. Where is the brotherhood they promised?

Prince Yu and Prince Cheng have been enemies for many years, and neither of them likes the other.

Is King Cheng here to save him?

Why is he so unconvinced?

He would rather believe that Yu Luohan was raised by a young woman than believe Cheng Wang.

"I am safe now. Are you disappointed?"

King Cheng shook his head: "Not really. I asked someone to tell my fortune for you, Third Brother. It seems like there will be no danger. Third Brother, your life should not end here."

Prince Yu was furious. He would never die. How could you decide that just by talking?

If it weren't for his beloved concubine who never left him, if it weren't for their deep love, would he be safe and sound?

It's as if we should thank him if he's fine.

"Your Majesty, this is bad, look!" King Cheng's confidant came in hurriedly and handed King Cheng a piece of paper.

The line of words above can be seen clearly by everyone present.

"I have finished my business here, and I am leaving now. I will give you a formation as a token of my gratitude."

Cheng Wang stood up and asked, "Did they leave?"

The confidant nodded: "I found this letter in your account."

King Cheng: "Where is the formation book?"

Confidant: "I don't know. He should still be in that person's room."

The Three Kings...

Prince Yu blinked. This scene seemed familiar. What was going on?
