Chapter 613: The sky is clear

On the second day of the march, Fang Qing and the others received the news that the former army was responsible for escorting grain and grass to Fancheng, and after learning that Lin Xuanzhong was no longer in Shiyan City, they couldn't help but be disappointed, especially Princess Lanxin, who was more anxious to see Lin Xuanzhong for this reason, so for Princess Lanxin, their current marching speed was very slow.

Of course, Lin Xuanzhong is a grain and grass team, and the marching speed is even slower, Princess Lan Xin and the others all know that they will be able to catch up with Lin Xuanzhong sooner or later. So, a few people were not too anxious.

Time passed little by little, and shortly in the afternoon, when the convoy was twenty miles away from Liucheng, a shower of raindrops fell sparsely from the sky, dripping on the people, adding a touch of coolness. Before the rain increased, Yan Nantian directly ordered the garrison. Earlier, when leaving Liucheng, Yan Nantian had already ordered the soldiers to cover the grain cart with rain cloths, and now the team is stopped, and the soldiers are only busy building camp tents.

Although the rain was light, he didn't know when it was going to fall, and Yan Nantian couldn't let the soldiers below get wet all the time, so they had to set up a lot of tents. The light rain fell unhurriedly and slowly, constantly turning into gusts of cold wind, and many soldiers in the camp walked back and forth, constantly busy.

After setting up the tent, Yan Nantian asked the hard-working soldiers to hide in the tent, leaving only some people wearing ponchos to scatter around the camp to guard. The rain didn't stop for a moment, and they couldn't hurry. In their spare time, huddled in their tents, many soldiers naturally discussed the weather. One person and one sentence, and the competition is very happy.

According to most people's opinions, this rain will not last long, and as soon as the rain stops, they can continue to hurry, firstly, because the rain is very small, it will not have much impact on the road, and secondly, Yan Nantian's style of doing things will not let them stay here for long.

The soldiers below were chatting about the weather, and the generals above were also not idle, and as soon as the big tent was built, Yan Nantian called all nine generals to the big tent to discuss military affairs. The matter of escorting grain and grass had already been planned, and there was nothing to discuss at the moment, after all, the weather problem was not something they could decide, and Yan Nantian could only discuss with Lin Xuanzhong and them at most what kind of problems the length of rain would cause to their march.

Calculating the time, the army has almost arrived in Shiyan City, and it is not surprising that this rain will also affect the itinerary of the army, so Yan Nantian is not in a hurry to march. The person who was sent to Fancheng to inquire about the news has not yet returned, but after calculating the time, it is enough for the sentinel to go back to Fancheng, but he has never returned.

After Yan Nantian briefly talked about the weather, he immediately mentioned this issue. According to the generals, the spies they sent were likely captured or killed, but in the end, it seemed that the matter had nothing to do with their march. Because no matter what happens to the spies sent, everyone can be sure that the army without the winged country in front of them will stop them.

From the beginning to the end, there seemed to be only one thing they had to do, and that was to escort the grain and grass to the designated place. In the end, everyone felt that Yan Nantian had summoned them just to increase communication between his subordinates.

After marching with other generals for a while, aside from Zhu Zizai and Xing Hu, Lin Xuanzhong now has the same good relationship with other generals.

As for Yan Nantian, it can be regarded as Lin Xuanzhong's enlightenment teacher as a competent general, and Lin Xuanzhong has always respected Yan Nantian very much. After Yan Nantian deliberately regarded Lin Xuanzhong as a junior, if it weren't for his busy military affairs, Yan Nantian would probably have become Lin Xuanzhong's mentor in cultivation.

In fact, Yan Nantian also has a lot to learn in military affairs, because it is not so easy to be promoted from a tiger general to a dragon general who can take charge of himself, and then temporarily act as a commander at any time to defend one side.

Based on Zhao Wu's existence, Yan Nantian has always understood that although he has the title of a tiger general at the moment, it is somewhat unworthy of the name, not to mention how much effort he has to put in to become a dragon general. After all, compared to Zhao Wu's great achievements, their contributions can only be regarded as ordinary.

Like many generals, Yan Nantian also wanted to become a powerful commander like Zhao Wu, but at the moment, it was not even an overnight thing for them to be named a dragon general, so there was still a long way to go.

The rain was falling unhurriedly and did not stop. In a blink of an eye, Ruan Yi and the others had been staying in the wine city for two days. After providing Ruan Yi and the others with a few places where they could attack the night army that day, Xu Mu held a banquet that night to receive Ruan Yi and them in person, and it was not until the end of the dinner that Ruan Yi and the others returned with good news.

On their way back, there were several people from the City Lord's Mansion following them, and by today, Xu Mu had found out all the information about Ruan Yi and the others. Xu Mu's move was not to leak secrets to the Night Army, but to know how many people Ruan Yi and the others had, and how firm their intention to attack the Night Army was.

After finding out the details of Ruan Yi and the others, Xu Mu couldn't help but be taken aback, and the number of high-level martial cultivators brought to Ruan Yi was extremely surprised. According to Xu Mu's idea, even if he didn't help Ruan Yi find some more people, the strength of Ruan Yi's group was enough to carry out the plan, and now because of this relationship, it became easier for Xu Mu to help them find some more people.

In the past two days, through a trustworthy way, Xu Mu successfully found more than thirty people for Ruan Yi, including nine seventh-order martial cultivators, and the remaining ones with the lowest cultivation were all fifth-order martial cultivators, which could be said to be a great help to Ruan Yi and the others. In addition, among the people Xu Mu found for Ruan Yi, there were also people who were very familiar with the section from Jiucheng to Liucheng, and in the future, Ruan Yi's actions would be smoother.

After the two sides secretly rendezvous outside the city, in the rain, dozens of people rode straight in the direction of Liucheng. Before Ruan Yi and the others left, Xu Mu also reminded them not to take the main road, because they might encounter spies sent by the Night Army. Fortunately, the people from the wine city led the way, and they walked the path very smoothly without delaying the trip.

Half a day later, when Ruan Yi and the others stopped to rest for the first time, they had already arrived less than a hundred miles away from the night army camp, and in order to implement the plan as soon as possible, they planned to continue to approach the night army camp after resting.

In fact, before setting off, Ruan Yi and the others had already thought about where the night army's grain and grass team might stop because of the rain, so they didn't have to be too anxious, now they were just worried about whether the night army would stay in Liucheng, if so, they might have to wait a long time before they had a chance to start.

In order to know the location of the night army as soon as possible, on the way, Ruan Yi accepted the advice of others and assigned two skilled Jiucheng personnel to find out the news of the night army. As long as they follow the path that the Night Army must take, it is easy for them to obtain the location information of the Night Army.

Time passed in a hurry, the night rain gradually stopped, Ruan Yi and the others stopped at a position seventy miles away from the night camp to rest, and the two spies were less than fifty miles away from the night camp, and all of them had entered the mountain section and were in the area where the fierce beasts were active. Because they are not close to the main road, when they rest at night, Ruan Yi and the others have to watch out for fierce beasts.

In this regard, Ruan Yi and the other sons have no experience, but the people from the wine city who came with them know a lot, and while ensuring their safety, they also ensure that their whereabouts are relatively secretive. In terms of Ruan Yi and others' travel routes, Xu Mu had already made detailed arrangements. In order to ensure that Ruan Yi and the others could move smoothly, Xu Mu did put some thought into it.

In fact, Xu Mu didn't have much hatred for the night army, but after all, the night army was a foreign enemy, and before the Wing Kingdom was completely destroyed, it was naturally Ruan Yi that Xu Mu wanted to help.

"Princess, are you still used to it?" Although the rain stopped, the evening breeze became stronger and stronger, and the clothes were wet from the rain before, and now everyone felt a little cold. Fortunately, someone brought fire oil with them on this trip, so it was not a problem for them to make a fire to keep warm despite the rain.

"I'm okay," while rubbing her slender hands, while looking at the person who cared about herself, Ruan Ming's mouth showed a little smile, and under the firelight, that beautiful face was indescribably good-looking.

Speaking of which, for a princess like Ruan Ming, all kinds of experiences along the way can be regarded as a test. Even if it is a seventh-order martial arts cultivator, Ruan Ming is still the first time to go far away, it is impossible to say that it is good, but Ruan Ming is not the kind of ordinary woman, unlike ordinary women who feel wronged, Ruan Ming only feels that she is doing the right thing, and the current experience has made Ruan Ming even more determined to attack the night army regardless of her body.

"Princess, you've been wronged these days," the next time, a son who followed Ruan Ming naturally thought that Ruan Ming would feel the same way after he felt wronged, so he hurriedly followed the person in front of him to care.

"I'm fine," he shook his head, and the smile on Ruan Ming's face disappeared in favor of a little more resolute. If you really want to talk about it, Ruan Ming's mind is actually stronger than that of many sons. After revealing a determined look, not only the temperament is moving, but also makes many people feel embarrassed.

"Let's rest separately, everyone has nothing to do, we have to continue to rush as soon as the morning dawns," Ruan Yi smiled and watched those sons offer courtesy to Ruan Ming, out of understanding Ruan Ming, Ruan Yi didn't think that they could capture Ruan Ming's heart with a few words, so it was better to gossip.

Under Ruan Yi's orders, some people went to rest in the tents, while some stayed to continue the fire. Because of the large number of people, they set up a lot of tents, but only Ruan Ming occupied a tent, and the others were resting.

There are many fierce beasts in the mountains, and there are people outside who are responsible for keeping vigils to ensure that there will be no problems at night, and of course, the matter of being responsible for the vigil will not fall on Ruan Yi and other high-level martial cultivators.

The evening breeze was blowing, all the way out of the moon hidden behind the clouds, and the light of the moon was brighter against the background of the black clouds, and it looked like the weather was about to clear again. Because of the rain, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't find a place to practice tonight as usual, but he still didn't rest after nightfall.
