The atmosphere in the chamber was heavy. Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked solemn.

This map is a map of the southwestern border of Liguo. Southwest, is it Nancang?

"Nancang suddenly deployed troops on the southwest border of China, and has already broken through Wanshan Pass, and Yangcheng is now in danger. What do you think? ”

As expected. Nancang is ambitious, has been silent for many years, and is just waiting for the opportunity.

For example, today, the country of Li, the country of Nancang and the country of Xichen are divided into three. The three countries contain each other, but they are also at peace.

However, fifteen years ago, the new emperor of Nancang ascended the throne in an attempt to unify the world. The national policy of destroying the country first and destroying Xichen was set.

Raise the strength of the whole country to attack the country of Li.

Nancang launched a surprise attack, coupled with the traitors in Liguo, under the combination of inside and outside, the momentum was like a bamboo, and many cities were broken in a row.

In this battle, in the end, Ling Yunsi led the Red Flame Army to resist to the death, turned the tide, and narrowly defeated Nancang.

Both countries have paid a terrible price, and the two sides have ceased war and recuperated. The people of the world have lived and worked in peace and contentment for 15 years.

Now, I finally can't sit still.

"Your Majesty, the lord of the battle."

As soon as the right minister said this, the ministers all seconded it.

"Shui Hua, what do you think?" Nangong Chen thought for a while and asked.

"Fight." Nangong Shuihua pointed to the map and said, "Uncle Huang, please see, Wanshan Pass is a natural danger, the first barrier in Liguo, and also the barrier of Yangcheng." Nancang was able to take Wanshan Pass in such a short period of time, obviously because he was well prepared, and it was only a matter of time before they captured Yangcheng. ”

"And Yangcheng, backed by Wanshan Pass, is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is the throat of the southwest region of Liguo. If Nancang is allowed to seize Yangcheng, then the southwest lands will lose their gates, and they will enter the interior as if they were in a no-man's land. ”

"Judging from the current situation, Nancang is ambitious in sending troops this time, and he will definitely not stop easily."

"Yes, yes, the prince said yes." Not only did the ministers agree, but even Nangong Chen couldn't help but praise it.

"In that case, who will lead the troops?"

Liguo is a country founded by the army, and there are many military generals. As soon as Nangong Chen's words came out, the audience was silent, and no one was willing to stand up and lead the troops.

Wanshan Pass has been lost, Yangcheng is besieged, and it is only a matter of time before it is lost.

The military strength of Nancang Kingdom is already on par with that of Liguo. It has been more than 15 years since the previous war, and it has long since recovered, and I am afraid it is even more than ever.

And according to the report from the front, Nancang dispatched the elite again this time. They really don't have the ability and courage to lead the troops.

Once the army is defeated, it will be a stench for 10,000 years.

"Your Majesty, the old minister recommends General Anping." Right Prime Minister Situ said proudly, "Although General Ling is young, he has experienced a hundred battles and is brave, so he can retreat from the enemy. ”

I don't know if it was discussed in advance, or if I really felt so, or if I took it out. These ministers actually recommended Ling Ruoxi one after another.

"What does Aiqing think?"

Sensing that the emperor's eyes were on him, Ruoxi said: "The minister will not disgrace his life." ”

"Good. Intended purpose. General Anping was ordered to be the commander-in-chief, and the right minister was the supervisor of the army, and immediately sent troops to Yangcheng. ”

During the day, Shui Hua seemed to have concerns. I also thought that they were a prince and a powerful minister, and they had too close contacts, which was afraid of arousing suspicion. Shui Hua simply visited the general's mansion at night.

"Ruoxi."

"His Royal Highness the Prince."

Halfway through the salute, he was lifted up by Shui Hua. "Okay, okay, just pretend during the day. Now there are no outsiders. ”

Mo Ze and Luo Feng are both guarding outside the door, there are no outsiders in this study section, there is really no need to worry about outsiders coming in, and Ruoxi will not stick to vulgar etiquette.

"Drink tea."

"What do you think of this battle? I see that you seem to be worried? Shui Hua understands Ruoxi, the enemy is current, with her temperament, she will definitely not stand idly by. If you don't take the initiative to fight, there must be a reason.

Shui Hua is right. She does have her own considerations.

She is full of meritorious deeds and has a close relationship with the prince. After all, she was afraid that the emperor would be jealous.

If you say these words, you won't tell Nangong Shuihua. Just find a reason to prevaricate in the past.

"I asked Changfeng before I came, this is the first time that the Red Flame Army sent the overseers to accompany it. You don't have to worry about ......."

"Your Highness is cautious."

"Your Highness, Ruoxi is the minister of the Liguo. Wearing this robe, everything he did was to share the emperor's worries and protect the peace of the people of Liguo. ”

Putting aside this topic, Shui Hua is still worried about the battle in Yangcheng.

"In any case, you still have to beware of the right phase."

Although Shui Hua returned to the palace these days, he didn't have much to do with the right phase. The right minister himself seems to be a philanthropic person. But throughout the ages, how many generals have died under the framing of the prison army, and they can't help but guard against it.

Three days later, 100,000 troops set out with flags.

"Mo Ze, Lu Jing, the deputy commander of the forbidden army, is a talented person, you follow Commander Lu to work hard, and you must protect the emperor's safety. Beware of Nancang's stabs. ”

"Also, if you become a family, you don't have to be alone, take care of Lu Wan."

In this battle, Ruoxi didn't plan to take Mo Ze with him.

"General, I'll go with you."

"Alright, don't say it. With the long wind by my side, it will be fine. ”

When you become a family, you have a concern.

The road ahead is vast, and Ruoxi doesn't want Mo Ze to follow her into life and death. This time, he intended to keep him in Beijing and take care of the forbidden army, that is, Ruoxi found a way back for Mo Ze.

"Sister, you must be careful!"

With a light smile, Ruochen stuffed a bunch of wound medicine into his arms, like a little old man.

"This medicine is to stop bleeding, this is to relieve pain, and this is to detoxify, to be used with this. This and this ......"

"Okay Ruochen, it's a big child, take care of Master and Sister Luwan, take care of yourself."

Giving instructions like last words.

For some reason, Ruoxi always has a vague sense of foreboding.

Yangcheng is located on the southwest border of Liguo, which is a desolate place with few people.

"Marshal, how is this good?"

The soldiers looked at the large black wind forest in front of them, and looked at Ruoxi at a loss.

The forest was dense and smoky, and the horses were hesitant, unwilling to advance, let alone the soldiers.

It's getting dark, and not to mention if there are any other oddities in this forest, it is dangerous to enter the forest at night alone.

"Stop. Set up camp on the spot. Rest here for the night. ”

Beyond this forest, Yangcheng is in front of you.

However, Ruoxi had just stepped forward to see that this forest was full of miasma, unfathomable, even if they covered their mouths and noses, people would inevitably inhale miasma in the process of traveling.

Moreover, there is a faint evil aura in this forest.

If you take a detour, it will take at least three more days, and the situation in Yangcheng is very critical.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Ruoxi thinking hard, he couldn't even take care of dinner. I simply brought it to him.

"Thinking about how to get through this forest? What are your thoughts? ”

"Marshal, it's not good. Two soldiers were poisoned. ”

By the time the two arrived, they would have been dead.

"When did you find out? What was wrong before the incident? ”

"Marshal, I just found out. The two men had said half an hour earlier that they were going to come out to relieve them, but when they saw that they were old and did not come back, they went out to look for them, not wanting to, not wanting to find their bodies here. ”

Before they arrived in Yangcheng, some soldiers were poisoned and died. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise morale will inevitably be demoralized and the situation of the war will be affected.

"Where do they go? Take me to see it. ”

"It's right on the edge of the woods."

Ruoxi and Changfeng have cooperated for many years, and they have a tacit understanding, and the two glance at each other and understand what the other party thinks.

"Let's go and have a look at the woods."

Judging from the death of the two soldiers and the words of the people in the same account, the two soldiers should have inhaled too much miasma and died. It's just that this miasma is not too domineering.

How long does it take to get rid of it? This kung fu can lead to death?

These two soldiers should have been relieved here.

"Long wind, look."

Ruoxi used a dagger to pick up the powder on the ground and put it on the veil. "Let's go, let's go back first."

The taste of this powder seems somewhat familiar.

"I see!"

When I was studying medicine with Bai Yitian before, I accidentally got a bone-eating grass, which was seven or eight points similar to the taste of powder.

Ruoxi remembered that he had seen a poison called Bone Erosion in an ancient book of his master in his early years, which was made from this Bone Erosion Herb.

According to this ancient book, the ingenuity of bone erosion lies in the fact that the powder itself is non-toxic. However, after combustion, a large amount of poisonous gas is produced, and these poisonous gases, which can be fatal after only a small inhalation.

"This miasma is not natural, it is man-made." Long air ducts.

"That's right! This is also not a miasma at all, but a poison gas. I've studied the terrain here. This place is low and concave, there is no wind, and the poisonous gas after the burning of bones is not easy to disperse, so it gathers here. ”

Before arriving in Yangcheng, someone was on the road. It seems that Nancang is bound to win this time.

"Now is not the time to trace the source of the poison powder, is there a way to detoxify?"

Changfeng's consideration is not unreasonable. After all, Yangcheng is still under siege by Nancang, and it is already struggling to support. I can't guarantee when Nancang will launch a general attack. The most important thing at the moment is to rush to Yangcheng as soon as possible.

The people behind this scene planted a poison gas forest here, just to delay time.

"Someone!"

The Firehead Battalion and the Medic barely slept all night.

The next day, each soldier drank a large bowl of glutinous rice porridge before leaving, and each of them had a handful of atractylodes.

If you have surveyed the forest, it is normal, but due to the influence of the terrain, the further you go, the concentration of this poisonous gas will be smaller. At that time, they will cover their mouths and noses again, and it will not be a problem to pass through the woods.

Li Wuxu, the guard of Yangcheng, looked at the Red Flame Army that seemed to fall from the sky in front of him, and his jaw was about to hit the ground.

Two days earlier, the Scout had discovered that the woods had grown miasma. He analyzed that the Red Flame Army would not risk crossing the forest, and would definitely choose a detour. If you do that, you will arrive in three days anyway.

How could it be so fast?

"General Li, the right minister is running all the way, and he is marching through the miasma forest with us, so let's arrange for the right minister to rest first."

"Yes, General, please."

"General?"

"It's okay, what's the situation in Yangcheng now?" Ruoxi realized that she was distracted, she just looked at the young man who served next to the right minister, although he was dressed in coarse linen, but his temperament was very outstanding.
