Yi Jiuxiao's destination on this trip was Jinzhou City, the capital of Chen State, due to the vast territory of Chen State, Gyeongju City is 25,000 miles away from Jinzhou City.

At his current speed, even if he gets up early and flies for ten hours a day, it will take more than 20 days to fly.

Therefore, Yi Jiuxiao's trip to Chenzhou is destined to be a difficult and difficult trip.

The current military situation is as urgent as fighting a fire, and he cannot afford the slightest slackness.

It is necessary to rush to Chen Guo as soon as possible and make them change their minds before Chen Guo sends troops. Otherwise it will be too late, and even if it arrives, it will be useless.

Therefore, Yi Jiuxiao must fly with all his might, day and night, and keep rushing to Chen Guojinzhou.

There are four states adjacent to Chen, namely Zhizhou, Guzhou, Xizhou and Mengzhou, and the length of the border has reached more than 7,000 li.

Eight days later, Yi Jiuxiao crossed Guzhou and came to the junction with Chen Guo.

Why did Yi Jiuxiao go from Guzhou, it was not that Guzhou was the closest to flying.

It is because this border of Guzhou is relatively flat, and if Chen wants to invade Yi, he must come from Guzhou.

Although the border between the two countries is more than 7,000 miles, there are not many places where it can be passed.

Most of the places are steep mountains or deep canyons.

A small number of pedestrians can barely cross, but an army of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, plus baggage, makes it difficult to pass.

Therefore, the 7,000-mile border pass, the real danger is the thousand-mile land of Guzhou, as well as the length of 200 miles of Mengzhou.

Yi Guo stationed 50,000 border troops in Guzhou and 20,000 border troops in Mengzhou.

Yi Jiuxiao looked at several border military camps in the air and found that there were one military camp every hundred miles, and each camp had about 5,000 people.

This seems to be in order to echo each other's first place, and to reinforce each other when encountering an enemy situation, and then form a flanking situation.

This arrangement has been inherited for hundreds of years, and it seems to be a very reasonable way to garrison, but it is not recognized by Yi Jiuxiao.

Because the model of equalizing and sharing the pie will only disperse the troops.

As long as the enemy comes in a formation of tens of thousands of people, it is easy to tear a gap and then drive straight into it.

Even though time was so urgent, he decided to go down and take care of it.

Yi Jiuxiao was already familiar with the art of war in his previous life, and he practiced martial arts in this life.

In fact, martial arts is a kind of Tao, and arranging troops is also a Tao, and Tao and Tao naturally have something in common.

After advancing to the Martial King, Yi Jiuxiao seemed to have a deeper understanding of the method of arranging troops, and he could slowly get a glimpse of the mysteries.

He took out the map of the military department from the ring, and followed the marks on the map to find the border general Zhenxi General Li Kuan.

Li Kuan is a member of the Li family, a cousin of Li Rong, and a cultivator in the early days of Jindan.

When the Li family and the Feng family were in civil war, Li Rong was worried that he would be taken advantage of by Chen Guo, so he did not dare to send Li Kuan back.

Fortunately, it is a member of the Li family, and if he is another general, Yi Jiuxiao may not be able to command.

When he came out, he didn't bring anything, neither the emperor's decree nor the letter from the Ministry of War, could it be that he was Yi Jiuxiao?

Due to the distance between the border pass and the capital city of Gyeongju City, many border generals may not know Yi Jiuxiao's name.

Li Kuan's military camp is a border city called Huangling Pass.

Guancheng is located on the top of Huangling Mountain, condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is a very good pass.

The entire Guancheng is twenty miles long and wide, and there are 10,000 border guards in the city, as well as passing caravans and border soldiers and civilians.

The personnel among them are quite complicated, so Yi Jiuxiao did not go to Li Kuan with great fanfare.

He bought a horse in the city, bought a set of clothes, disguised himself as a family man in his thirties, and rode towards Li Kuan's military camp.

Li Kuan's General's Mansion was built next to the barracks, Yi Jiuxiao arrived outside the General's Mansion, hugged his fists at the four big men guarding the door, and said: "Four military masters, please inform General Zhenxi, just say that Lord Li in the capital has a letter." ”

The four guards at the gate were the guards of the General's Mansion, and they were all cultivators above the sixth level of Qi refining.

The leader is the ninth layer of qi refining, and he should be a small leader among the guards.

He looked Yi Jiuxiao up and down, and when he found that this was a mortal, he was a little proud, and said, "Which Lord Li are you talking about passing on the book to my general?"

"My master is the original Master of Fubu Shang Shuli, I don't know if you know the military master?"

Yi Jiuxiao pretended to say that as a family member, he couldn't say the name of the head of the family.

"You're from Master Shang Shuli's house, where is the letter?"

The leader seemed to know Li Rui, so he said so.

Yi Jiuxiao had already prepared, and took a letter from the package on his body, only to see a few big words written on the envelope, "Li Kuanxian's brother is personally enlightened".

But he only shook the letter in front of the ringleader to make him see the cover, and did not hand it to him.

Seeing a few words on the cover, the leader was somewhat convinced.

He has been a guard in the General's Mansion for many years, and he still has a certain understanding of the Li family, and he knows the relationship between Li Kuan and the Li family in the capital, so he said: "You give me the letter, and I will take it to the general." ”

"That's not good, my family has already said that what is said in this letter is a confidential matter, and it should not be handed over to others casually, so I will personally hand it over to General Zhenxi. Master Jun, you and I are both people who do things, so please make it convenient and report to the general. ”

As he spoke, Yi Jiuxiao put the letter back into the package.

The leader was helpless, and he couldn't tell whether what Yi Jiuxiao said was true or false, so he could only enter the mansion to report.

After a while, he came out and said, "The general asked you to go in with me." After speaking, he led Yi Jiuxiao inward.

Zhenxi General Li Kuan was very puzzled at this time, he had been guarding the border for many years, and the Li family usually had many letters to him, but he never said that he had to meet him in person, and most of them were presented to him by the personal soldiers below.

Today, suddenly there is a letter to be handed over to the hand in person, and I am vaguely uneasy, as the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

He asked the little leader of the guards he had just reported what the messenger looked like, and the little leader replied that he was a mortal.

The Li family is a great family that has been inherited for thousands of years in the Yi country, and there are many cultivators in the clan, and many retainers are cultivators.

In the past, all the people who came to the border to deliver letters were cultivators, and it was really difficult for mortals to ride thousands of miles.

Suspicion is suspicion, but Li Kuan is not afraid. He himself is the third layer of Jindan, and he is in his own army, who can he be afraid of?

Just as he was thinking nonsense, the little leader of the guards led Yi Jiuxiao over.

After knocking on the door, he took Yi Jiuxiao into Li Kuan's public hall.

Li Kuan sat on a tiger skin chair, and in front of him was a long table with several stacks of papers, as well as a cup of spiritual tea and a few plates of spiritual fruits.

"My lord, the messenger has been brought, and the little one has retired. ”

The little leader clenched his fists at Li Kuan, and after saying a word, he withdrew from the court, and closed the door with his hand.

This kid is estimated to have been on an errand for many years and is very familiar with the rules of the army.

Only Yi Jiuxiao was left standing alone in the public hall, looking at each other with Li Kuan.

Li Kuan in Yi Jiuxiao's eyes was in his thirties, his face was white, and he was wearing a set of dark tight-fitting official uniforms, looking heroic and quite majestic.

And his appearance is somewhat similar to Li Rui, coupled with the cultivation in the early stage of Jindan, Yi Jiuxiao basically concluded that the person in front of him was Li Kuan.

And Yi Jiuxiao in Li Kuan's eyes, dressed as a housekeeper, in his thirties, with a tall figure and a very ordinary appearance.

How ordinary it is, even if you look at ten eyes, you can't be impressed, and you can't tell the characteristics.

What made Li Kuan strange was that this person stood in front of him without humility or arrogance, did not bow and bow, and had no fear.

There was still a little arrogance in it, which made him nervous in his heart.

"Are you here to deliver the letter? ”

Li Kuan couldn't help but speak, the time to look at each other was actually very short, just a few breaths.

"There is no letter, and I am not sending a letter, I am just here to tell Master Yi about something. ”

After Yi Jiuxiao finished speaking, he found a chair in the public hall and sat down.

Li Kuan is a battle-hardened man, and he doesn't show anger or panic when he sees this.

Instead, he stood up, hugged his fist at Yi Jiuxiao and said, "May I ask Your Excellency?"

Yi Jiuxiao looked at Li Kuan, a little satisfied in his heart, and returned the salute.

At the same time, he took out the talisman of his forbidden army and shook it in front of him.

said: "Lord Li, please take a seat, my name is Yi Jiuxiao, I wonder if Lord Li has ever heard of my name?"

"It turned out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was here in person, Li Kuan failed to go out of the city to greet him, and asked His Royal Highness to atone for his sins. ”

Li Kuan said as he solemnly walked in front of Yi Jiuxiao, ready to kneel and bow.

Although he did not participate in the war between the Li family and the Feng family, as the core figure of the Li family, he knew a lot about the details, and he admired and thanked Yi Jiuxiao very much.

It can be said that without Yi Jiuxiao's help to the Li family, the Li family may no longer exist.

Including Li Kuan, all the Li family members unanimously called Yi Jiuxiao the prince, and now only Li Rong changed his words and stopped calling him like this.

Yi Jiuxiao hurriedly held him up and said, "Lord Li, you don't have to be polite, this time I came here, it is not appropriate to work with the people, I just want to discuss the matter of Chen Guo with you, I don't know if there is news of Chen Guo on Lord Li's side." ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, Chen Guo is currently in the country ready to move, many forces have instigated Emperor Chen to send troops to attack our Yi State, at present Emperor Chen is still hesitating, I am afraid that he will soon make up his mind, I am afraid that there are forces of Zhou State in the right place, I have reported the military intelligence to the Ministry of War, and asked the court to decide. ”

Yi Jiuxiao suddenly realized, he had always thought that the news was heard by the military department, but it turned out that Li Kuantan heard it and told the military department.

This Li Kuan is not simple, he can fully grasp the movements of the enemy country and collect useful military information, Yi Jiuxiao has a little more respect for him in his heart.

"I was sent by the emperor to come for this matter, and this act is kept secret, and no one else knows about it except the emperor. ”

Yi Jiuxiao's words are very clear, only the emperor knows that I am here, and then it is you, if your whereabouts are leaked, you will definitely be blamed.
