Chapter 549: Night Cool 2
Because of the tiring travel all the way, Bai Qing and Fang Jinzhi fell asleep early.
However, generally for this kind of travel fatigue, the more you want to rest, the more you want to rest, you always can't sleep restlessly, especially if you still have something on your mind.
So when he slept until midnight, Bai Qing suddenly had a thrill, woke up from his sleep, and suddenly couldn't sleep anymore, and the news of the Northern Expedition that he only learned today suddenly appeared in his mind.
Listening to the sound of Fang Jinzhi's even and steady breathing beside him, since he couldn't sleep, Bai Qing simply began to sort out the various information he had received today in his mind.
Judging from the letter from Yutai Feicong, Gao Quanye went out this time and requisitioned a total of 100,000 troops, with Liu Qi and Han Shizhong as the main and deputy marshals, on the surface, it can be said that they attach great importance to it, after all, Liu Qi and Han Shizhong are representatives of the new generation of generals, and they are both people who are very good at using soldiers.
But Bai Qing still had uncontrollable worries in his heart, because he knew very well what the enemy he had to face during the Northern Expedition, purely from the point of view of military strength, it was not inferior to the imperial court, and they were all people who had been in war for a long time, and they could be described as elite soldiers, plus the main generals of the rebel army at the moment, Gao Favor and Gao Gexing, all of them were fierce generals who were famous on the one side, even if it was Gao Quanwu with a weaker reputation, he was also a prince who had experienced various wars, although Liu Qi and Han Shizhong were also famous generals, but compared with Gao Pet and Gao Gexing, It's still slightly inferior.
On this battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly, not that the team led by the famous general will definitely win, just like Bai Qing once led the Praetorian Guard and the little-known Lanling Army before, and defeated the strong seed army in one fell swoop. However, this kind of result contains too many elements of chance and luck. Overall, the team that still has the advantage has a better chance of winning.
Plus the haste of preparation. The reason why Bai Qing opposed the Northern Expedition at the beginning was that the most important thing was to consider these, but it was a pity that Gao Quanye's heart of the Northern Expedition was too resolute.
For a while, for this Northern Expedition, Bai Qing was deeply worried in his heart.
But fortunately, the 100,000 troops of Liu Qi and Han Shizhong are only vanguards, waiting for the follow-up team to arrive. Maybe they can defeat the rebels smoothly.
What's more, Gao Quanye didn't say it, he didn't bother to get involved in this kind of thing anymore, he didn't have to lead the troops himself, and he was just happy and relaxed.
said yes, as a literati, but with the army to fight so many battles, Bai Qing also has a deep fatigue in his heart, and he also cherishes this peaceful day very much.
Come to think of it. Bai Qing sighed unconsciously, with a wry smile on his face, he really didn't know how to be blessed in the blessings, and he shouldn't worry about it. I'm still worried here, anyway. In his bones, he still has a little bit of the temperament of the little people in his previous life.
Let's take the time to think about how to make sense of the case at hand. From the conversation with Sun Xiancheng, Bai Qing learned something again. It's just that before the murderer is caught, everything is just empty talk, and besides, Bai Qing also feels that there should be something deeper in this matter.
Just thinking wildly, Fang Jinzhi beside him suddenly moved, waking Bai Qing up from his contemplation, and turned his head involuntarily, and then a pair of eyes as bright as stars appeared in his vision.
"...... you wake up" Bai Qing subconsciously said to Fang Jinzhi, but before he could finish speaking, one hand had already covered his mouth with lightning speed, and forcibly blocked the words he hadn't finished saying in his throat.
"Don't make a sound!" Fang Jinzhi leaned his head to Bai Qing's side and whispered to Bai Qing in a barely audible voice.
When Bai Qing nodded and signaled that he had understood, Fang Jinzhi slowly let go of his hand, and then in Bai Qing's puzzled eyes, he pointed to the direction of the roof, and said to Bai Qing with his mouth: "There are people up there!" ”
After seeing clearly what Fang Jinzhi meant, Bai Qing's face suddenly became solemn.
And Fang Jinzhi also tensed his body, making a posture that was ready to burst out at any time, and at the same time carefully listened to and discerned the subtle sounds coming from the roof.
The voice was very small, so small that it was not clear, even Fang Jinzhi only felt it inadvertently, and from this point, Fang Jinzhi was able to conclude that the person who came was a master.
In an instant, Bai Qing and Fang Jinzhi subconsciously glanced at each other, and they both confirmed a message from each other's eyes: judging from his kung fu, there is a chance that the person who came is the murderer who committed this series of murders.
It's just that it can't be judged at the moment what the purpose of his appearance here is, whether he is coming for his own group or not, so for a while, Fang Jinzhi can only hold his breath and listen attentively.
However, the assassin was very cunning, and his voice was always vague, and soon, his trace seemed to disappear, and there was no movement for a long time.
"Have you already left?" Bai Qing glanced at Fang Jinzhi in some surprise, and there was such a question in his eyes.
Fang Jinzhi shook his head and didn't speak, but the vigilant look on his face seemed to become more intense, and the tensed body contained great explosive power, giving people a feeling of imminent triggering.
Seeing Fang Jinzhi's appearance, Bai Qing also subconsciously held his breath, and his attention became highly concentrated.
At this time, it was late at night, everything was silent, and the surroundings were quiet, and the silence seemed to be able to hear everyone's breathing, and under this silence, a palpitating solemnity was slowly spreading around, like an incomparably huge stone, pressing on the hearts of Bai Qing and others.
Fang Jinzhi was better, a pair of eyes kept scanning back and forth on the roof, her eyes were very sharp, she didn't let go of a trace of clues, her breathing had deliberately slowed down, if she hadn't been lying next to Bai Qing, Bai Qing would almost not have felt her existence.
The silence grew longer and longer, almost to the point of wearing out Bai Qing's patience.
Could it really be gone, Bai Qing thought in his heart, subconsciously looked at Fang Jinzhi, and after seeing her dignified appearance, he could only force himself to be vigilant.
Another dark cloud drifted by in the wind, and the moon was obscured again, and the light instantly became dim.
Fang Jinzhi's heart moved!
At the same time, there was a sound of rustling, and then a black shadow suddenly broke through the window and rushed straight to Bai Qing's bed, with a black light flashing in his hand......
