Chapter Seventy-Three: News Leaks
As the night darkened, the forest became more and more crowded. The moonlight of Ban Pa shines through the gaps in the branches and leaves and spills into the woods, adding a layer of mystery to the trees.
"Goo... Mutter....... A few owl calls frightened the big and small lotus, but they had to be vigilant to protect the young master, and they were afraid of those strange calls.
Sometimes Liu Ao is also strange, you say that you are not afraid of killing, but you are also afraid of these snakes, owls or something, why haven't you ever been afraid of the big black and the big white? Girls are such strange animals sometimes!
"It's okay, I don't know if Uncle Mu Zi can see the mark you left on this big night." Liu Ao comforted them, but at the same time he was worried that the dumb uncle would not find here.
"What you can see, you must see." Xiaolian is in a hurry, and now she knows how to distinguish them without looking at her hands, Da Lian is calmer, Xiaolian is still a little girl with full taste and different personalities.
"Yes, yes, you must have seen it." In fact, I can only believe in her, and I really can't help with this......
In Jingzhou City, hundreds of miles away, in the yamen of the assassin history, a man in his thirties was in the study, looking at something! Dressed in a purple brocade robe, he has a jade crown on his head, and his brows are tightly locked.
"King Xiao, just now the guards patrolling the city received an urgent letter, which was shot up from outside the city because the city gate was closed, saying that it would be handed over to you by hand, King Xiao. The leader of the city patrol is our own people, and I know that it is Ma Laicai, the contact person left by our Majiazhuang. An old man came to report it, and as he spoke, he handed over a long arrow with a letter tied to it.
The man took it, saw that it had not been moved, and opened the letter. Glance at it. An angry slap slapped the table away: "Waste, waste!"
It's all fucking shit! Not a single Yuezhou can be controlled well. Silently taken back! Immortal Sect Messenger, Liu Ao Liu Ping'an......" His voice was full of anger. After the man roared, he sighed: "I controlled a Jingzhou and lost a Yuezhou." The gains outweigh the losses!
Dou Qingyu is really a waste, Cui Jinshou is estimated to be gone, otherwise Yue Zhou would not have missed. Immediately sent an order, immediately let the Dongting side guard against Yue Zhou, we must rush to the Dongting immediately, maybe, they are blocking this king on the road!
Hum. Ordered to go down and transport the supplies out of Jingzhou overnight. Leave some internal responses, both bright and dark. I want them to defend Jingzhou and hold back the army of the imperial court. Originally, Yuezhou and Jingzhou, the defenders and reinforcements of the imperial court were sandwiched to death on both sides, but now they can't do it.
Spread all the bosses here, quick, old turtle. You go and transport the materials we have prepared out of Jingzhou overnight. Going out of the city overnight, Yue Zhou is not there, this lonely city is no longer meaningful. This king is arranged. Then I will go after you. ”
The old man called the old turtle took the order and left......
In the woods, the footsteps that seemed to be human voices just now were gone. However, all kinds of frog croakings. There was a sudden silence. This, caught the attention of the trio.
Perception of animals. I don't know how many times more sensitive than people, someone! This is the first reaction! The three immediately went into a state of high alert. Liu Ao's crossbow arrow had already been loaded, and when he held it in his hand, Da Lian's hand holding the Emei thorn was nervous and sweating. Xiaolian took a weapon and held it in her right hand. There was tension in the air......
"Ahem......" A light cough broke the calm. The three of them hurriedly turned their heads to look at where the voice had come from. Under the colorful moonlight, the dumb uncle covered his chest with one hand and stood at the back of the carriage.
"Dumb uncle? What's wrong with you? The three got out of the car and greeted them.
"I'm fine, where's the wood?"
Wood, it is Uncle Dumb, Zhang Zishan, Yang Wuniang, they call Zimu, the first is Zhang Zishan called, was heard by Yang Wuniang, and began to call it so, before Uncle Dumb came, I heard Yang Wuniang call it like this, and I also called it that.
"I'm early." From the top of the trio's heads, flew down a person. "Are you alright?"
"I can't die, I was thinking, taking advantage of the old guy's injury, I wanted to pick a cheap, and by the way, I ended up with him, but I didn't know that the old guy was still so bad after he was injured. And he coped with a palm, and was shocked. This old guy is so fucking horrible! ”
"Under normal circumstances, even the old master of my family is not necessarily his opponent, it may not be the case after a long time, no matter how high his martial arts are, his old age and strength will not last long!
When people became famous, we were still ignorant children, and there was nothing to be ashamed of losing to him. To survive is to win. On today's rivers and lakes, there are really not many people who fight alone and win others.
Since it's okay, heal your wounds, rest here for the night tonight, and hurry early tomorrow morning. If my estimate is correct, they should be waiting for us on the way.
Now there are two choices, one, go back, return to Yuezhou City, it is estimated that the Jade Girl Gate is also very troublesome.
Second, continue to go, it is possible to meet, with the two of us joining forces, it is estimated that we will not lose, but we can't win, the two girls are not the opponents who are destined to be late bloomers, and the young master is almost incapable of self-preservation, what should I do? ”
"Uncle Muzi, you can't say that, that old guy was shot and injured by me!" Saying that he has no ability to protect himself is true, especially in the face of these martial arts figures, but he doesn't admit it! "Of course, I went to Shuzhong, quickly picked up Zuo Shi, and went back to Luoyang. Uncle Muzi, you also heard it, this is all the ghost of that old thing. ”
Zimu smiled and shook his head. "In that case, you rest, it's okay tonight, make a bonfire, and I'll go get some prey." After saying that, he disappeared deep in the woods.
Prey? It's so late, huh? If anything, it's probably some ferocious wild guys. I hope it's a wild boar.
I still remember the last time I experimented with my own soil bomb, and the wild boar I got was really delicious!
Not long after the bonfire was lit, Zimu really came back with this half-sized wild boar, and he didn't know how far he went, but he didn't hear the boar's cry anyway.
A fire was rekindled, one for roasting meat, and the other for porridge......
In the camp tent of the Jiangnan defenders, Su Dingfang and Cheng Yanjin had been muttering inside for a long time.
"Since Jingzhou has fallen into the hands of the king of filial piety, then, I want to fight between the two sides, and I want to eat our people and horses, and now, Yuezhou has been recovered, and the other party's strategy is to fail, at this time, that Jingzhou is now equivalent to a lonely city.
As long as he cuts off the connection with Dongting, there will not be too many people inside, and it is estimated that there will be no more than 20,000. We are divided into 30,000 people, and we are on the road between them, whether it is the people and horses coming from Dongting or the people and horses coming out of Jingzhou, we can flexibly block them. "It was Su Dingfang who proposed.
"However, between this Dongting and Jingzhou, there are many waterways and dry roads, and if there is no exact route, it is really not good for us military horses." The rebuttal is naturally that the Demon King of the Mixed World, Cheng has bitten gold.
"Here we are now." Su Dingfang unfolded a yellowed map, saying that it was a map, if Liu Ao was here, he would definitely laugh when he saw it, it was all a little circle, there were a few lines in the river, and a few mountains were marked, and there was nothing else. No one else knows what that means.
That's it, Su Dingfang wants to be like a baby, and he still puts it in his arms every time he uses it.
"Between the rebels, here, here, and here, there are three roads that are possible to take, and the dry roads are not afraid, and now on both sides of these roads, every ten miles, there are two scouts staring at it. Taking the river, Huarong River, should be the most ideal route for them before, if he hasn't known about the affairs of Yuezhou City, this river will go ......" (to be continued. )
