On the same day, Shenyue Haoqing led the elite soldiers from Tianyang City to the Wasi Kingdom. Vasi is in the west of Tianyang Kingdom, after defeating the invading Qi State in Tianyang State five years ago, Vasi Kingdom, which was a subject state of Qi State, decided to return to Tianyang State and become a subsidiary country of Tianyang State, Vasi Country is located between Tianyang State and Qi State, and Vaxi Country is the territory of Qi State three hundred miles to the west, so after Vasi Kingdom returned to Tianyang State, Tianyang Country got a barrier to block Qi State and a land area of hundreds of miles. Vasi is a small country, its land area is only a little larger than Tianyang City, but the population is almost twice as large as Tianyang City, so all kinds of resources in Vasi Country are scarce, and its importance lies only in its geographical location. After returning to the Tianyang Kingdom, the Shenyue Cangting sent foreign envoys to be stationed there, and provided them with financial and technical support to help develop the nearby land, so in just five years, the originally poor and backward Vaxi Kingdom became rich and prosperous, and the people were happy.

But even so, there is no way for it to confront the powerful Tianyang Kingdom, even if there have always been people who oppose the Tianyang Kingdom in the Vasi Kingdom who are secretly making trouble, they have all been suppressed, and there have been no major incidents in the past few years. But this time, after the death of the king of Vassi, the reactionaries actually captured the foreign embassy and slaughtered the soldiers of the Tianyang Kingdom, which is already a contempt for the prestige of the emperor of the Tianyang Kingdom, why does a small country have such courage? The population of Vasi Country is only a hundred thousand, excluding the old, weak, sick and women, and its strong men are only about 100,000. Moreover, in the past few years, its economy has also been relying on the help of Tianyang Kingdom, where is the capital confrontation?

Shenyue Haotian sat on his horse and looked at the sky and thought, at this time the army was camping and resting, five days have passed since the departure, before this the army has been on the road for two days overnight, and even if the body is strong, it will not be able to bear it, and now it is only a few hundred miles away from the country of Vassi, and it will be possible to reach the destination in two days.

"Fourth brother, what are you thinking?" Shenyue Haoxuan walked up to him and handed over a bag of wine, "Brothers, it's rare to rest, drink some wine and relax."

"It's not far from Vasi, the second emperor brother should be more vigilant." Shenyue Haoqing glanced at him condescendingly, and then rode back to the camp.

Shenyue Haoxuan raised the wine bag and took a sip, his moist lips hooked up a sneer, and his eyes flashed with a meaningful light towards the setting sun.

Shenyue Haoqing returned to the camp and raised his hand, "All the soldiers listen to the order, it is only two days away from Vaxi today, and they are now camping to rest, but they still can't relax, the purple army group is responsible for the inspection in the first half of the night, and the Qinglong group is responsible for the second half of the night. The rest of the soldiers are in good spirits and will go to Vasi with the king tomorrow morning! ”

"Yes! King of Qingning! And they knelt down to obey the command. Shenyue Haoqing has always been strict in governing the army, strict requirements for soldiers, the reward and punishment are fair and selfless, most of the soldiers here have followed Shenyue Haoqing on the expedition, so even if he drinks, he only drinks a little spirit, and he will not relax his vigilance.

There are four spirit groups under the command of Shenyue Haoqing, namely Chifeng, Bai Wei, Zijun, and Qinglong, these people are all dead soldiers among the dead, and no one knows how many of them except Shenyue Haoqing, but the only master it identifies is King Qingning, and even the emperor can't order without Shenyue Haoqing's order. Therefore, the hundred officials are afraid of Shenyue Haoqing not only because of the emperor's favor for him, but also because of the unimaginably powerful dead soldiers in his hands. However, Chifeng and Bai Wei are two hidden groups, which means that the only thing the court knows is the Purple Army and the Qinglong Group that have been transformed into the Imperial Forest Army, so this expedition only brought these two groups.

After camping for the night, Vasi did not make any unusual moves, but this is what makes it even more unusual. The army had been on its way for two days, and Vassi must have received the news of the army's departure, but no spies appeared. There are only two possibilities, one is that the Vasi spies are too well hidden to be discovered, and the other is that the Vasi country has not sent spies at all. Either case is strange.

Early the next morning, the rest of the army was in good spirits and set off for Vassi. On the afternoon of the second day, they arrived at the city of Vassi.

It seems that a new moat has been dug outside the city, and the banks of the river have not had time to be consolidated, and the moist loess is exposed in front of the eyes, and the river is turbid. Catch a glimpse of the tall city bridge that has been retracted.

"Who's under the city?" The armor-clad defenders on the castle tower asked vigilantly when they saw the large number of troops under the city.

"King Qingning is here! Don't open the city gates yet! Adjutant Cheng Siyue was the first to answer.

"I, the king of Vaxi Kingdom, have established himself as king half a month ago, and since then I have nothing to do with Tianyang Kingdom, please go back!" The people in the city didn't move at all, but replied coldly.

"Bold! If you don't open the city gate and surrender, our army will capture your city in the near future, and see how rampant you are! Shenyue Haoxuan also opened his mouth at this time, and changed his previous laughter, which made many soldiers can't help but have a little change in their opinion of him.

"Then wait for the day when your army can enter the country of Vassi!" The people of the city laughed, turned and disappeared into the city.

"Back to camp!" From beginning to end, Shenyue Haoqing didn't say a word, just observed the people in the city, before this he had expected this to be the case, so he ordered the army to camp on the spot fifty miles outside the city, and at this time he took the lead in riding back without saying a word.

"Fourth brother, you said that the gate of this Vaxi Kingdom is closed, we can just attack it directly, and they are powerless to resist!" Shenyue Haoxuan rushed behind him.

"How?" Shenyue Haoqing put down his speed, and stared at him with a pair of narrow eyes under the mask.

"Just cross the moat and attack the city directly!"

"Although the second emperor brother has not been on the battlefield, he should have read some military books, not to mention that this expedition is to be able to outwit and not to take it by force, even if we use soldiers, now we don't know anything about the situation in the city, and then rush to cross the river, if the city releases arrows to block us without any preparation, isn't the soldier sacrificing in vain? Let's discuss everything when we get back to the tent. After Shenyue Haoqing finished speaking, he rode his horse and galloped back.

Shenyue Haoxuan looked at the flying purple robe, and his face returned to the same smile as always, and then returned to the camp.

As a result of his discussions with the other lieutenants, he rested in place, sent spies to find out the news, and then wrote to the city to negotiate with Vasitas.

In the tent, Shenyue Haoqing was looking at the topographic map of Vaxi Kingdom and its vicinity, only to see the lights flicker, and the black shadows of two people appeared in the dark place in the tent, just to prevent the figures from being reflected on the tent, so from the outside, there was no abnormality in the tent.

"Red Phoenix Group Shadows."

"White Trick Group Ink Ray."

"See Master!"

"How did you accomplish the task given to you?"

"Report to the master, according to the master's instructions, after the subordinates arrived in Vassi a few days ago, Vassi closed the city gates, did not allow anyone to enter or leave, and checked all the people in the city, all non-Vassi people were arrested and put in prison, and the subordinates hid in Vasitas's house so that they would not be discovered. But that night, his subordinates found a masked man in Vasitas's house, and Vasitas had great respect for this man, and as soon as the two met, they entered the study to talk secretly, and when the subordinates lurked on the roof, they saw that there was no one in the house. Therefore, the subordinates thought that there was a secret room in the study, and that the matter that the two men were talking about must be very important. Later, he went to the palace, but did not find Queen Vasilata and her children, presumably killed or imprisoned. In addition, his subordinates also inquired that all those who opposed the war, whether officials or ordinary people, would be imprisoned. "The Shadow Strikes.

"What is the state of the army?"

"Most of the army in the city is gathered in the palace, but the subordinates estimate that the soldiers in the palace are only about twenty or thirty thousand, and the rest of the soldiers are stationed at the city gates and on the streets, and the total number of soldiers and horses is about fifty thousand. But the subordinates found a strange thing, that night, when the subordinates were investigating at night, they found that the person who was obviously dressed as a lieutenant general treated a person in the costume of an ordinary soldier very subserviently, as if the ordinary soldier was more powerful than the lieutenant general. ”

Shenyue Haoqing frowned slightly when he heard this, and a thought flashed in his heart, "What are the characteristics of that ordinary soldier?" ”

"It was late at night, and the two of them were walking in the dark, and they only saw that the ordinary soldier was a head shorter than the ordinary soldier, but his body looked very athletic, and his walking pace was very steady."

"Mo Xiao, where are you?" Shenyue Haoqing nodded and looked at the other black shadow on the side.

"There is no major movement in the army on the Qi side, and there seems to be no reaction to the rebellion of the Wasi State this time."

"Got it, you guys go down first." After hearing this, Shenyue Haoqing waved to the two, and the two disappeared again as before.

Shenyue Haoqing originally thought that the rebellion of the Waxi Kingdom would have something to do with the Qi State, but now the Qi State did not move at all, nor did he take the opportunity to threaten the Tianyang State, let alone send troops to help the Waxi Kingdom, but this is also the strange place, according to the previous practice, as long as the Tianyang State is in trouble, the Qi State will definitely find the opportunity to add fuel to the fire. And then there's the weirdness of Vassi, the man in the mask, and the weird soldiers.

"Second prince, the prince ordered that no one should be disturbed!" At this time, the voice of a guard sounded outside the door.

"This prince has something important to discuss with the fourth emperor's brother, don't stop this prince!" It was the voice of Shenyue Haoxuan.

"Release." Shenyue Haoqing put away the topographic map on the table and said, "What is the important matter for the second emperor brother to come?" ”
