Not long after, the soldier went and returned, and he was still followed by Shangguan Wenruo, and before he got close, the soldier had already pointed to the woman in white and said, "Lord Shangguan, it's her, who calls herself the Holy Maiden of the Snow Clan." ”

"Okay, I got it." Shangguan Wenruo responded, and then stepped forward quickly.

After seeing the woman, he didn't look dumbfounded like a soldier, and after a little look, he smiled slightly: "Lord Taishou is already waiting in the tent, please come here." ”

"There's this lord." Seeing that he was wearing an official uniform, the woman also bowed her head slightly, and then entered the barracks with him.

The entire barracks were full of halberd infantry, and the shouts of training could be heard not far away.

She is dressed in white and holds a jade flute, which has undoubtedly become a beautiful landscape.

The eyes of the captains and halberd soldiers who passed by him in the barracks widened.

On the way, after the woman observed the camp slightly, she couldn't help but ask casually: "I remember, the Qin army was not like this before." ”

"That's the arrival of Lord Taishou, and the military has been rectified." Shangguan Wenruo returned.

"Oh." The woman nodded, not saying anything more.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

In fact, Xiao Yuan was a little surprised, he got up from behind the handsome case and walked down, and when he saw the woman in white, he naturally remembered the previous encounter with a group of wolves.

"Is that you?" He couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then asked with a smile: "You are the Holy Maiden of the Snow Clan?" ”

"Exactly, I've seen Taishou-sama." The woman in white held the jade flute in her right hand and bowed slightly.

"Girls don't have to be polite." Xiao Yuan waved his hand, and then glanced it up and down.

At the edge of the snow-capped mountain before, due to the distance, he didn't see the woman's appearance clearly, and now after looking at it, he couldn't help but be amazed by the woman's appearance.

Then, he also fixed his eyes on the jade flute in the woman's hand, and said with a slight smile: "The jade flute in the girl's hand seems to be missing some decorations. ”

I didn't expect him to say this, the woman in white was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said: "This, I lost it before, and there was no suitable one for a while, so I didn't pay attention to it anymore." ”

"Does the girl think this thing is appropriate?" As he spoke, Xiao Yuan also took out the red rope jade pendant.

Seeing her own things, the beautiful eyes of the woman in white suddenly moved, and she couldn't help asking, "How can this thing be here with Lord Taishou." ”

"Huh." Xiao Yuan smiled, did not answer this question, but picked up the jade pendant and looked at it, and saw that there were small characters on the jade pendant, engraved with 'Mercy Shadow', he also nodded slightly, and muttered: "Pity Shadow, good name." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand casually and threw the jade pendant at the woman: "Give." ”

The woman raised her hand to catch it, first looked down at the jade pendant, and then arched her hand again: "Lord Xie Taishou." ”

"If the thing is returned to its original owner, why should I say thank you."

Xiao Yuan said a word, looked at the woman again, and said with a smile: "Girl Mercy, I asked to see this official this time, so I might as well say it bluntly." ”

And hearing him call himself a pity, the woman seemed to think that this title was too intimate, and couldn't help but move the corners of her mouth, and said, "My lord, my surname is Mu." ”

"Miss Mu?" Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't care, waiting for her to continue.

Mu Lianying said: "Maybe you still don't know, today's 20,000 troops in Xirong have found the place where my Snow Clan lives. ”

"What!?" When Xiao Yuan heard this, his brows were also furrowed.

Mu Lianying continued: "They want my Snow Clan to take them through the Snow Mountain and directly to Xiping Pass. ”

"It seems that Miss Mu didn't agree." Xiao Yuandao.

"Yes, it is impossible for the Snow Clan to agree to such a request, but how can Xirong be willing, they will definitely do everything possible to force my Snow Clan to comply." Mu Lianying said.

"Miss Mu means ......"

Mu Lianying explained: "This time Xirong's 20,000 army is defeated, it must be angry, and after that, more troops will come to besiege my Snow Clan, therefore, the Snow Clan needs the help of the Qin army, and I hope that the Lord can protect my people." ”

Xiao Yuan understood what she meant.

If she had promised Xirong before, then now, Xirong's army may have appeared in the pass, and Mu Lianying's position is clear, and it is reasonable for Xiao Yuan to refuse her.

Thinking of this, he also nodded and said, "Don't worry, the Snow Clan did not choose to cooperate with Xirong and caused this disaster, and this official will naturally not sit idly by, but now...... I had something else in mind. ”

Mu Lianying's beautiful eyes showed a suspicious look.

Xiao Yuan continued: "According to what the girl said, Xirong will definitely mobilize a large army next time, send troops from Beiling, and then attack the Snow Clan, if so, then Beiling, isn't the defense insufficient?" ”

"Your Excellency is saying, attack North Ridge?" Mu Lianying said with a slight surprise.

"That's right." Xiao Yuan said directly.

"But in this way, wouldn't the Snow Clan be in danger, my lord is using my Snow Clan as bait." Mu Lianying said.

Xiao Yuan glanced at her: "Miss Mu don't have to worry, on the one hand, I will transfer 20,000 Qin troops into the Snow Mountain to help your clan defend together, and on the other hand, I will take this opportunity to capture the North Ridge with lightning speed!" ”

After listening to his explanation, Mu Lianying thought about it first, and then said calmly: "In this case, it is best for adults to plan, but there is one thing, if the Xirong army sees the Qin army outside the Snow Clan's city, its main general will inevitably react, knowing that the Snow Clan has cooperated with the Qin army, at that time, I am afraid that they will give up attacking the Snow Clan, and then immediately return to defend Beiling." ”

"Therefore, the battle of Northridge needs to rush time."

After Xiao Yuan finished speaking, he was also a little worried, and couldn't help but sigh lightly: "It's just that our army's military intelligence is insufficient, if we can know the enemy's movements as soon as possible, all this will be easy to do." ”

Hearing this, Mu Lianying said directly: "At this point, adults don't need to worry, I can help you." ”

"Oh?" When Xiao Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, now there is no problem with everything in the Qin army, that is, in terms of intelligence, there is a lack of information, this is not to say that the enemy situation cannot be detected, but that science and technology were not developed at that time, and the only means of transportation was war horses.

The spies need to gallop quickly, back and forth, I don't know how long, and when the information comes back, the best opportunity has been missed.

At this time, Mu Lianying began to say: "When I came, I had already sent people to the vicinity of Beiling to secretly monitor every move of the Xirong army, and once there was any news, it would be transmitted back as soon as possible." ”

"Really? But is the person sent by the girl reliable? Xiao Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"Rest assured, my lord, they can track down anything in the deep mountains that are rare in human relationships, let alone tens of thousands of troops." Mu Lianying said calmly.

"But the information is back ......," Xiao Yuan asked again.

"Faster than any spy in the world." Mu Lianying said directly.
