It has been three full days since the departure from the Imperial City, and now there is another half day to reach Meaux. It was getting late, and the group set up a makeshift camp at the foot of the mountain to rest for a while.

If you rush at night, you will not only not achieve the goal of increasing the speed of the march, but you will also encounter unknown dangers on the way. For the next half day, all the distance will be in the deserted mountains. In order to better protect the country of Aoki, Meaux and other towns are separated by mountains that stretch for nearly 100 miles.

There are also many wild beasts in the mountains, and it is best to rest at the foot of the mountain.

Sitting by the fire, Ling Tian and Prince Duanmu Feng were discussing some things.

During the day, I received an urgent shipment from Meaux. Qi Liguo's soldiers have been spotted several times in the mountains and forests outside Meaux, which is to do pre-attack investigation, indicating that Qi Liguo's soldiers and horses have arrived and are preparing to attack Aoki.

"Your Highness, we still have half a day's journey tomorrow, I think we should send some soldiers first, ride forward, and quickly rush to Meaux, and the rest will arrive in Meaux at noon according to the original schedule."

The situation in Mo City is very urgent, but it is extremely risky to travel at night, Qi Liguo is likely to have a warm-up battle tomorrow, with the strength of Mo City, when he doesn't know how many men and horses the other side has, he will not dare to rush to face the battle. After careful consideration, Ling Tian thought that this was the best and safest way.

The crown prince Duanmu Feng is the most gentle and elegant, and he is a prince who loves the people. In his early years, he had been traveling abroad in order to experience the lives of the people and understand their suffering.

"Just do what Ling Xiang says!"

The voice is warm and refreshing, if you don't know his identity, who would have thought that this is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of a country.

Ling Tian stretched out his hand and dialed the firewood. The firewood gathered, and the surrounding temperature increased a lot, expelling a lot of the cold brought by late autumn.

Looking at the crown prince sitting opposite, Ling Tian was just respectful, and he didn't have much intimacy. As the crown prince, Duanmu Feng is away all the year round, and he rarely stays in the imperial city, so he can't see each other, so naturally he doesn't have any deep feelings here.

"Then tomorrow Chen will take a pair of men and horses to Mocheng first, what does Your Highness think?"

Ling Tian's every word was very respectful and polite, Duanmu Feng smiled slightly when he heard it, and said, "Ling Xiang, when we go out to fight, it is better for us to be commensurate by our names, and it is much more convenient." I'll call you Ling Tian, you call me Mu Feng, and I'll be called that by others outside. ”

Duanmu Feng, who was the crown prince, had spoken, so Ling Tian, as a courtier, naturally had no objections. In this way, it is safer for the prince to be worthy of the name.

"Yes."

Seeing that Ling Tian agreed to Fang Cai's suggestion, Duanmu Feng continued to speak: "As for what Fang Cai Ling Tian said, just do what you say, my father trusts you, and I naturally trust you." ”

Even though he had traveled abroad all the year round, he also knew that his father's trust in the Ling family was a trust that surpassed anyone else's at that time.

After discussing tomorrow's actions, the night also darkened, and the two did not talk much, but went back to their respective tents, so that they could rest and be fully prepared for tomorrow.

At this time, the country of Yiyue, under the governance of the witch team led by the holy maiden Yixue, has become orderly, and the people are no longer so complaining.

As a holy woman, she has the right to nominate a person as the new female monarch of the Yiyue Kingdom in the case of the sudden death of the female monarch and the absence of a prince. After Yi Wu's death, she immediately selected a suitable heir from other royal families, and with the support of the shrine maiden, she gradually developed in the direction of a good monarch.

It took a long time to suppress the civil strife in the country of Yiyue, and he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and rest. She moved out of the palace and returned to her Drifting Snow Villa. At this time, she didn't know that a new thing was already on the way, and she was about to set off for another place, where she would also meet a young man who belonged to her.

...

After a night, Ling Tian and his party, who were stationed at the foot of the mountain, spent a peaceful night and ushered in the sun of the next day.

Early in the morning, everyone had already woken up from their sleep, according to last night's plan, the soldiers were divided into two groups, a small group of horseback followed Ling Tian to Mocheng quickly, and the rest followed Prince Duanmu Feng and set off at a normal marching speed.

The people and horses had been put in order, and Ling Tian was riding on his war horse and looked at the prince who was also riding a horse beside him.

"Mu Feng, farewell."

Duanmu Feng nodded slightly, and said gently: "Okay, be careful on the road." ”

After a short farewell, Ling Tian set off with the cavalry squad. The sooner you reach Me, the safer Meaux will be, and the group of people, the royal horses, gallop wildly, and hurry as fast as possible.

At this time, outside the city of Meaux, in the wasteland outside the city of Me, a large number of people and horses gathered and set up many tents. The geographical location of Qili Country is not good, the land is relatively dry land, and the nearest border city is also a hundred miles away from Mo City, if you want to attack Aoki Country, it is necessary to build a temporary military camp on the wasteland.

At this time, in the largest tent in the temporary barracks, there was a man with a frosty face, and a man with almost zero sense of presence stood beside the man. In the open space directly in front of the man, there was a group of trembling men in armor, all with their heads bowed and facing the ground.

The man sitting above didn't speak, just looked coldly at the kneeling people below, and didn't say a word.

"Your Majesty... Minister, there is no way. ”

A man trembled and replied to the man above, who seemed to be very frightened, and did not know what the man above had done, so that the people below were as frightened as quails, trembling. The low pressure around the man's body was that the entire camp was full of depression.

The man is the new monarch of Qili Kingdom, Nanmen Yue. Now he is full of coldness and ruthlessness, and even the secret guards around him dare not say much in front of him. After taking the throne, his iron-blooded methods made everyone respect him more than they feared.

Because of the mysterious weapons of Mo City, Qi Liguo's army has been unable to move forward and does not dare to attack rashly. The people around him couldn't think of a way to solve the current predicament, so Nanmen Yue has been in a state of anxiety for the past few days.

Today, after another investigation, there is still no solution to be discussed, which undoubtedly multiplies the anxiety in Nanmen Yue's heart.

"No matter what method you use, I'm going to see the city of Mocheng broken this afternoon."

After speaking, Nanmen Yue turned around and walked out of the tent, leaving everyone behind, I don't know where he went, leaving a tent with a sigh of relief, as if everyone who had survived the catastrophe.

These people did not have the oppression from above, so they dared to gather together to discuss solutions.

At this time, Ling Tian led a pair of men and horses, and after an hour of full speed forward, he finally passed through the deep mountains and came to the gate of Mo City. The soldiers guarding the city gate, after seeing Ling Tian, the leader, hurriedly opened the city gate and sent someone to inform the city lord.

The city gate was wide open, and Ling Tian and his party, without stopping, rode directly into the city, and went to the barracks at full speed all the way.
