"My lord, the White Lotus Sect's grain and grass army is about a little more than 5,000, with a total of more than 30 granaries, because the opponent's troop deployment is very rigorous, the last general will not be able to further investigate clearly, and I hope your lordship will forgive you." A touch of shame flashed in Fang Butong's eyes, he originally felt that it was not difficult to explore the reality of the grain and grass army, but the reality far exceeded his expectations, the deployment of the grain and grass army was very rigorous, and he couldn't go deep at all, so he could only wait and see from afar.

"Okay, I can't completely blame you for this matter, I didn't expect that the general of the Grain and Grass Army turned out to be a person who knew the soldiers, but this is more energetic, if you meet a straw bale general, although the task is completed very smoothly, it can't reflect our real combat strength, and it can't beat the prestige of my Great Xia Royal Army." Although he couldn't see anything, Shen Yan still looked at the place where the Grain and Grass Army was stationed from a distance, and then withdrew his eyes, and an indifferent smile appeared, as if he was giving himself a step, and it also seemed to be comforting Fang Butong.

"Fang Butong, Ding Sanlin, Wei Chong'an, Boss Gao, you follow me forward to inspect the terrain and the deployment of the White Lotus Sect." Shen Yan pondered for a moment, although Fang Butong provided him with some information, and knew that he couldn't have more detailed information when he went to investigate, but he didn't know why, Shen Yan still wanted to take a look at himself.

"The last general commands." When Fang Butong heard Shen Yan's words, a faint uneasiness appeared in his eyes, thinking that Shen Yan was blaming himself for not completing the task, but then he thought about it, Shen Yan was not such a person, he just wanted to do his best to get more information, and the pressure on Shen Yan in this battle was far greater than that of himself and others.

"Boss Gao, can you see clearly?" Shen Yan and his entourage of five quietly moved to a small hill near the White Lotus Sect's grain and grass army camp, and looked from a distance, only to see a dense granary and military camp in front of them, Shen Yan lowered his voice and asked quietly.

"Although I can't see it very clearly, I can still see one or two in general." Gao Yong's eyes showed a touch of seriousness, looked at the front seriously, and said in a low voice.

"Okay, when we go back, we will compare the situation we will see, although we can't fully understand the details of the grain and grass army, but at least we will be three or four points sure." A faint smile appeared at the corner of Shen Yan's mouth.

Why did Shen Yan insist on coming by himself and shouting Gao Yong, it was because he and Gao Yong were super-first-class masters, and their eyes could see farther than Fang Butong and the others, and the reason why he shouted Ding Sanlin, Fang Butong and Wei Chong'an was because these three people would become the main force attacking the grain and grass army.

"Okay." Gao Yong said softly, his eyes still looking at the deployment in the distance.

When Fang Butong and the others heard the conversation between Shen Yan and Gao Yong, a touch of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they could hardly see anything clearly, they could only see a hazy scene.

"Let's go, let's go back." Shen Yan saw Gao Yong retract his eyes, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then whispered to Fang Butong and the others, and then left quietly.

"Tell me, you're back just in time." When Shen Yan and the others had just returned to the location of the large army, a happy smile appeared in Xia Yuanxu's eyes, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said loudly.

"Eighteen princes, what's the joy of?" Shen Yan saw Xia Yuanxu's expression, with a touch of doubt in his heart, Xia Yuanxu is in good spirits on happy occasions, but he and the others are far away from Jinling, more like a swarm of headless flies, where does this joy come from?

"As soon as you left for a while, the three Ouchi guards beside me received a secret letter from the highest level of the Ouchi master, which was directly given to the high guards, and I originally wanted to catch up with the high guards first, but then I always didn't delay this moment's work, and then a secret letter from the Jinyi School also followed, and it was sent directly to the waiter, but the waiter was not there, so let Wu Zuo Ling collect it on his behalf." Xia Yuanxu's eyes flashed with joy, and he said loudly.

"Jinling has a secret letter, but it doesn't mean that there is anything happy." A trace of doubt flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, and he didn't understand it.

"Could it be the emperor's ......" A flash of light flashed in Shen Yan's mind, and he said softly.

"It shouldn't be wrong, it must be that the good news of the waiter was delivered to the hands of the father in time, and the father was in a good mood after seeing the good news, so he sent a secret letter of commendation to the waiter. Although Jinling is not far from here, the road is not smooth, so it has to be delivered to the hands of the attendants through the unique channels of the Ouchi guards and the Jinyi School. Xia Yuanxu nodded slightly, a hearty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said loudly.

Although it was Shen Yan who was rewarded, and had nothing to do with Xia Yuanxu, Xia Yuanxu was the nominal commander, and his father's thoughts were very obvious.

"Brother Shen, I'm so happy." When Gao Yong heard Xia Yuanxu say that there was a secret letter of the highest level, he didn't say anything, and walked directly to the three Ouchi guards, stretched out his right hand, and a look of unwillingness flashed in the eyes of the Ouchi guards who temporarily kept the secret letter, and he took out the secret letter helplessly, Gao Yong immediately unfolded a mess of garbled codes, and quickly combined the meaning of the garbled codes in his mind.

"Great joy, where is the joy? Could it be that Boss Gao has any magic method to break the enemy? Shen Yan heard Gao Yong's congratulatory words, and his eyes showed a touch of surprise.

"Look at the secret letter from the Jinyi School for yourself, I estimate that the content from the Jinyi School is the same as that of the Ouchi guards." A faint smile appeared at the corner of Gao Yong's mouth, but his heart was like a wave of the river, Shen Yan had only been out of office for more than a month, and he had already reached the third rank, so the promotion speed was too fast.

"You're still selling it to me." Shen Yan saw Gao Yong's expression, and couldn't help but give the other party a roll of his eyes, and then motioned to Wu Zhenyue's combination of garbled characters on the secret letter.

Although Shen Yan knew the garbled codes of the Jinyi School, and also knew that these garbled codes needed to be recombined, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive, Shen Yan originally wanted to rectify the garbled codes a little, and he already had a case in his heart, and had already asked Ma Shichao to prepare for this, but unfortunately he had not had time to rectify it, so he led the Royal Army of Great Xia to go on the expedition, in order to improve efficiency, it is imperative to rectify the garbled codes, but this matter can only be implemented after returning to Jinling.

"Congratulations, my lord, this is a holy decree to elevate the adult, because the road is not smooth, so the emperor used the unique garbled combination of the brocade school and the Ouchi guards and the channel to transmit the message to the hands of the adult." Wu Zhenyue quickly finished assembling the garbled codes, a strong shock flashed in his eyes, and the joy on his face was speechless.

Wu Zhenyue was full of gratitude and admiration for Shen Yan, and he was grateful because Shen Yan helped him abolish the thief who abused his wife. admiration lies in the fact that Shen Yan helped him get through a difficult time, and also gave himself an official body, which is a face that he never dreamed of, but Shen Yan gave it when he said it, and he did not stick to it at all or shy away from his previous identity.

"Promoted me again?" After Shen Yan heard Wu Zhenyue's words, a touch of shock flashed in his eyes.
