Chapter 129: Xiu Bai's questioning
The next day, after Qi Tu was belated, this meaningless combat meeting finally officially began.
"Why did you delay coming until now?" Jian Mu said angrily.
The few people who had been sitting and waiting in the tent for a long time also looked at Qi Tu who was panting with unkind faces.
"I'm sorry to be late, but it's really the busy affairs in the army that delayed the departure time. β
Qi Tu apologized to everyone very politely, and he didn't look like he was flying in the past, but he couldn't blame him for being late.
The northern part of the Heavenly Horse Kingdom is full of endless grasslands and cultivated fields, and it is indeed not an easy task to safely place the 200,000 troops, not to mention that Jian Mu only gave three days.
"We're not here to listen to your explanation, hurry up and sit down!" Jian Mu reprimanded him without pain, then looked at Balu with a smile and said, "Inspector, my lord, everyone has arrived, you can see if you can start." β
After snorting lightly in dissatisfaction, Bal U on the main seat got up and said loudly: "Guardian Liu Angyun ordered me to deal with the rebellion of the Pegasus Kingdom this time, which can be said to give me a chance to atone for my sins. β
"I have learned the hard way, Balu will not fail the trust of the guardians of Liu Aung Yun, and thank you for your generosity, I am determined to put down the rebellion at the lowest cost, and I have returned the ............"
After a clichΓ©d speech by B'uhula, the discussion finally got to the point.
"Let's discuss the battle plan below, the Pegasus Kingdom borders on the Succubus, and before this departure, Lord Liu Angyun had strictly forbidden the Succubus to contact the Pegasus Kingdom, so I temporarily changed the plan and chose to encircle and suppress the Pegasus Kingdom rebels by besieging them on all sides, I don't know what your opinions are?" asked with a smile.
Jian Mu nodded and said, "I support the plan of the Patrol Envoy, although this will waste a lot of manpower and material resources, but considering that our troops are several times that of the enemy, this is undoubtedly more secure." β
"I also agree! Although it is relatively difficult for us to attack on the plains, for the sake of the overall situation, we are willing to bear the additional risks and losses. Qi Tu said impassionedly.
Phantom Shiyang was watching from the sidelines, watching a few of them sing and harmonize, as he expected, Balu was the difficult character, Jianmu and Qi Tu, the two waste materials, only helped, but it seemed that Balu had a bad impression of these two.
Illusory Yang was considering whether to start in this regard, but at this moment he was not sure if this was another trap set by the enemy.
Seeing that the illusory Shiyang was silent for a long time, Baru asked, "Brother Shiyang, what do you think?"
Illusory Yang Yin and Yang said strangely: "Qi Tu can make a feat of sacrificing himself for others, and our big camp is in the Giant Moon Forest, where is there any reason to disagree, I also support your plan." β
Balu was surprised, he thought that even if he didn't make a big fuss with the character of the Phantom Liberation Yang, he should at least fight for it on the basis of reason!
Could it really be that he didn't see through the mystery? No, right? Is it really that I think it's too complicated? Baru had a hint of doubt in his heart.
Since there are no twists and turns, Balu can only continue to play the play, "Okay! It's rare that everyone agrees so much, so things will be simple, Prince Jianmu's elite troops will mainly attack the direction of Silver Frost City, and Shi Yang and Qi Tu will be responsible for attacking Koulin City and Liangma City to prevent the rebels from escaping." β
Xiu Bai, who had been silent for a long time on the side, suddenly spoke: "The disciples of Polar Moon Island will enter the city with the team after the frontal army breaks through Silver Frost City, looking for an opportunity to assassinate the one hundred and eighteen rebel officials on the list, I have informed them that it is forbidden to kill civilians indiscriminately, and I hope you will do the same." β
Balu replied with a smile: "Senior Brother Xiubai doesn't need to tell us this, you and the other junior disciples just let it go, I guarantee that in the process of encircling and suppressing the rebels of the Tianma Kingdom, there will never be soldiers who will be rude to innocent people." β
"Inspector Envoy, I wonder when my troops will attack?" Jian Mu asked duly.
"The day after tomorrow, after Shi Yang and Qi Tu go back to reorganize their troops, Prince Jianmu can start attacking Silver Frost City, and the troops on both wings are temporarily in strict formation waiting for orders. β
Phantom Shiyang yawned lazily and sneered: "After that, then I'll go back, it's really boring to see you guys acting here!"
"What do you mean?" Jian Mu asked.
"What do you mean by me, do you want me to make my words clear?" asked with a smile.
"You...... The rumors are really right, a stubborn waste!" Jian Mu scolded angrily.
Bal Wu hurriedly explained: "Dissipate your anger! Why do you quarrel without a word, if you have no objection to the matter here, you can reply, and if there is an order, I will directly convey it to your station." β
"Gone! Don't bother to pay attention to you idiot. After greeting Yalan, the two walked side by side towards the outside of the tent.
"Wait!" Xiu Bai suddenly stopped.
Phantom Shiyang asked in a soothing tone, "Something?"
"Let's go out and talk about it! Xiu Bai explained.
"That's fine! β
Xiubai apologized to Balu, "I'm sorry! β
"It's okay! Anyway, I'm done here, so I'll just come back and ask me if I have any questions. Baru said politely.
"Thank you!" Xiu Bai said and hurriedly left the tent.
"I have to go back quickly, there are still a lot of things waiting for me to go back and solve them!" Qi Tu also hurriedly resigned.
Bal Wu said a little helplessly: "Go back! You also have your difficulties, first save your strength and wait for my orders at any time." β
In an instant, only Jianmu and Balu were left in the huge handsome tent, and after walking away with Xiubai, Jianmu dismissed the guards and said, "Do you think this Illusion Yang knows something?" Or is it deliberately deceiving us?"
"You just have to do your thing, as long as your attack doesn't go wrong, even if you know it, what's the matter!" Balu reminded.
"That's right, but looking at his martial arts, I really want to kill him right away. Jian Mu said with hatred.
"Remember, the more I get to this moment, the more I can't let my guard down, and I'm more worried about Xiubai, an outsider, than I am about Illusion Yang now. Baru said faintly worriedly.
"Xiubai, are you worried that he will fall to the other party?"
"It's not that simple to win him over, all the evidence in favor of Haiyi in the Pegasus Kingdom has been blocked by me, and Hai Lianran is still in my sight, Xiubai is a very principled person, and this time it is the crusade order issued by the guardian himself, unless he sees conclusive evidence, it is impossible for Phantom Shiyang to convince him. Baru explained.
"So what are you worried about?"
"I don't know, maybe Han's sudden return to the Moon Shadow Kingdom gave me a little bit of an illusion......"
In an open space in the barracks, Illusion Shiyang asked Yalan to assemble the team, and Xiu Bai took the opportunity to ask, "Where did Han Gui go?" Why didn't I see him this time. β
"I said that you are all familiar with each other, right? It's really not polite to speak!" said Phantom Shiyang angrily.
Xiu Bai couldn't help but smile, except for his division commander, he didn't know how many years no one had spoken to him like this, he felt that the person in front of him was quite interesting, and said with a smile: "Phantom Shiyang, can you please come with me to the camp tent for a while?"
"It's not good! Say it bluntly so as not to misunderstand. β
From Han Gui, Illusion Yang basically has a general understanding of Xiubai, at least so far, Illusion Release, who has nothing to do, has no intention of making a fuss about him, so in order to avoid attracting attention, it is better to contact this person less.
Xiu Bai shook his head and said, "Okay, I'll say it again!Brother Shiyang, may I ask where my junior brother Hanqi is?"
"Cultivating in the camp of the Giant Moon Forest, he didn't come this time because of the bumpy road. Illusion Yang Lied without red eyes and heartbeat.
Xiu Bai directly exposed: "You didn't tell the truth! Senior Brother Han Qi is not in the camp at all. β
Illusion Yang looked very calm, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to hear the truth?"
"Of course!"
"But I can't trust you!"
"You didn't even give me a chance to prove it, how do you know that I'm not worth trusting. Xiu Bai felt more and more that the young man in front of him was interesting, and he was very angry.
"Okay, do you believe that Haiyi is innocent?"
"I believe it!"
"What do you think of Balu, a two-faced villain?"
Xiu Bai replied: "If this kind of person has the opportunity, he will naturally go up and stomp on his feet. β
"If I get the evidence, will you help the Pegasus Kingdom?"
"The duty lies, if Polar Moon Island really makes a mistake, of course, it is allowed to be corrected. β
Illusion Yang replied with satisfaction, "Then I'll tell you, Han Hui has returned to the Moon Shadow Kingdom. β
"You still haven't told the truth!" Xiu Bai said helplessly.
The news that Balu can find out can naturally be found out by Xiubai, but Xiubai knows the purpose of Hanqi's coming, he definitely doesn't believe that his junior brother will be a turtle with a shrunken head at such a time, so there are only two possibilities for the disappeared Hanqi to go, one is the Tianma Kingdom that has been blocked, and the other is to return to Jiyue Island again.
No matter which of these two possibilities is one, they may kill Han Qi at any time, so Xiu Bai will think of coming to Illusion Shiyang to ask clearly, only in this way can he go to the rescue if Han Qi is in danger.
"But your words don't prove anything, do they? I will put the evidence I have collected in front of you in two months, and I will make a decision based on your choice. Phantom Shiyang gave a final reply.
"Two months? In less than half a month, the Pegasus Kingdom will be breached, what am I looking for you to do with Hanqi's whereabouts?"
"That can't be helped, Han Gui said it himself!" If it weren't for Han Gui's explanation before leaving, Phantom Shiyang wouldn't have been involved with this unhelpful passer-by for so long.
Xiu Bai said eagerly: "Do you know that he may be in danger at any time?"
