Chapter Thirty-Eight—Head-to-Head Confrontation (Part II)
Kong Hong settled his mind and said slowly: "I know this very well, the number of troops of the imperial Chen family itself is actually not very large, the fundamental reason for this is that they do not produce iron ore in their territory, and the absence of iron ore indicates that it is impossible to build weapons and armor from the past. Of course, these iron ores can't solve the royal family's Chen family's thirst for pig iron, but they have no other way, so naturally they can't form a new army. ”
Kong Hong sighed slightly, "So, when the imperial Chen family got the opportunity to cooperate with the feudal state, they immediately asked the feudal state to support their weapons and armor, and I also knew a little about the original transportation." Cutting off the logistics and supply transportation of the feudal kingdom is also preventing the idea of the royal Chen family from expanding the army in the change. So now, there are only more than 100,000 troops in the imperial Chen family, which is also the entire army of the imperial Chen family. ”
Now the food and dishes on the table have been cleaned up by the shopkeeper, this young shopkeeper is very smart, he knows that these people in this private room are not ordinary people, so after he cleaned up the table, he immediately sent three cups of tea, and then closed the door of this private room, and turned to other things.
At this time, in this private room, the two brothers and sisters Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, who were sitting in front of them, listened very carefully, they really didn't know much about this matter, Kong Hong took a sip of the tea in his hand, and then continued to say unhurriedly: "Since the royal Chen family is generally impossible to dispatch a new army in the middle of the meeting. This is also very clear, we now directly believe that there are only more than 100,000 troops within the Chen family of the royal family. Of course, these 100,000 troops are also extremely elite existences, and they are all strong soldiers who have been honed by battles, and they are by no means idle. ”
Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters, nodded, Chen Xinyu had also mentioned this matter to them, when they left the civil war, the royal Chen family dispatched almost all the troops to meet the departure of the north and the south. At that time, it was rumored that in addition to the 10,000 garrisons in the capital, there were only more than 1,000 people left in the other four main guarding counties. At that time, if an army could be sent to bypass the Weiku Plain and bypass the 50,000 elite troops led by Zhao Ling, I am afraid that it would directly enter the imperial Chen family, and it could disrupt or even completely disrupt the strategic plan of the original imperial Chen family. However, these things have passed, and the two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, no longer think about the main joints.
Kong Hong stretched out his hand and pointed to their south, and said to Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan with a smile: "Let's calculate now, first of all, there are 20,000 troops stationed in the city, and if there are 10,000 troops in each of the four counties, there will be 60,000 people. The remaining 40,000 people, as far as I know, the garrison on the side of the Weiku Plain near the royal Chen family is also 10,000, and the north garrisons 20,000 in order to resist the further encroachment of the country. Although there are not many garrisons in various local counties, there are at least more than 100 garrisons in each county, so if you calculate it in this way, the weakest place in defense should be the south, when the feudal state of Qi entered the Xuanling Continent, Chen Xuan had already ordered the army in the south of the country to withdraw, and now that General Li Fu has defeated the feudal army, the army of Qi has no trouble. Then, now our breakthrough is in the south, and it is estimated that there should only be an army of about 5,000 people stationed, Xiao Pass!"
"Xiao Guan?" Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, had never heard of this name, but in retrospect, it should be the case, after all, when the feudal state and the Qi country were in a fierce war, the royal Chen family would definitely not station too many troops in this place, and they expected that a battle would inevitably start between the feudal state and the Qi state at this moment. Therefore, it is natural that the royal Chen family has probably withdrawn all the troops stationed here and handed them over to Zhao Ling's command, and it is such a desperate action that allows them to directly defeat the unprepared and somewhat light southern army of the country.
However, if it is really as Kong Hong's inference, then they can really choose this place as the most critical breakthrough to attack this matter. So Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, asked, "Then is Sister Kong Hong going with us?"
Now that Kong Hong's heart knot has been untied, the cloudy expression that used to appear occasionally is now gone. She gently put down the teacup in her hand and said with a smile: "This is natural, do you think that with my status, coupled with such a thing, I can continue to stay here?"
Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, looked at each other and smiled, they were now getting closer and closer to their plan. Ever since the news of Qi's victory over the feudal army here came, the two siblings had already realized that this was the best time for them to act.
If we can cooperate with the Qi army to break through the military town of Xiao Pass, I am afraid that the already sharp contradictions within the Chen family of the imperial family will directly erupt. At that time, it will also indicate that the day of reunification of the country is coming.
At this moment, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters, couldn't help but feel a wave of ambition in their hearts, everything here, they will do their best to help Qi Guo and leave the country and defeat the royal Chen family!
Looking at the two siblings in front of him, Kong Hong's heart rose to a point that she had always wanted to ask but didn't say because she was worried about other things, but now this is a good opportunity. So, Kong Hong hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Can you tell me if this ability you are carrying is really the legendary soul ability?"
As soon as this sentence came out, the smiles of the two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, immediately froze directly on their faces, and they didn't understand the meaning of Kong Hong's words at once. Kong Hong felt that he didn't say this very well, so Kong Hong added, "That's the case, I always feel that your ability is unusual, although it is somewhat similar to mine, but it is not the same, I always feel that there are some other clues in this, so," Kong Hong blinked his eyes and asked with a smile, "What kind of ability do you have?"
Feng Yu Chong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings also reacted from Kong Hong's explanation after experiencing a period of shock, and they immediately reacted, they had also seen Kong Hong's ability to freeze ice crystals. So, the two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, did not deny Kong Hong's speculation, but instead asked, "This, what's wrong with the soul ability?
Saying this sentence is a disguised admission of Kong Hong's speculation, and Kong Hong realizes that this may be something more important than the previous joint matter. So, she walked over and closed the door of the private room, and then confirmed that it was impossible for anyone to eavesdrop now, so she quickly walked back to her position, lowered her voice and said to Feng Yu and Feng Shanshan in front of her: "This matter has a long history, and it can even be said for three days and three nights, so I will talk about the most critical thing." ”
The two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, also realized that this could be a very critical matter. They always felt that Kong Hong's surprised expression was not quite right now, could it be that this ability contained in Kong Hong's body was not a soul ability?
"Rumor," Kong Hong took a sip of tea and began to tell a very far-reaching story, "As early as the beginning of the creation of this Xuanling Continent, there was a magical power on the continent, and this power was called the Soul. And the instrument soul, it is rumored to be an ancient ability sealed by the founder of the Xuanling Continent. What I know is that the ability of the soul is more focused on a certain attribute, that is, the elements that exist on the continent, such as elements such as water, fire and grass, and those who cultivate the soul are cultivating the power of this element. The highest level of cultivation is revered as the legendary Shura, and according to legend, there have been countless soul cultivators in history, but only one person has ever obtained the title of legendary Shura. ”
Although the two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, couldn't accept such news for a while, they were peerless and intelligent people after all, and they soon heard the most critical points in Kong Hong's words. Feng Shanshan took the lead in asking, "So, this kind of soul ability that Sister Kong Hong possesses should be the power of the ice and snow element, right?"
Kong Hong looked approvingly at the two brothers and sisters in front of her, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, she had to admire these two brothers and sisters, their extremely fast reaction ability was indeed not something that ordinary people could do. Moreover, through their previous observations and their current general understanding, they had already calculated and guessed what their original soul element was. Thinking of this, Kong Hong smiled very directly and said: "Okay, I have already understood the situation in front of me, let's leave Checheng directly and go to Xiaoguan for other things, and I will slowly continue to explain other things to you along the way."
"Okay!" Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, now directly agreed with Kong Hong's opinion, after all, their identities are too special at this time, and it must not be a correct choice to continue to delay in this city, and it is the wisest choice to leave this place as soon as possible. So, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters, directly sorted out the packages beside them, and in a quarter of an hour, they had already gathered at the gate of the south of the city with Kong Hong, who had now packed their simple luggage, and left the city quickly, and ran directly to Xiao Pass.
