The white clouds are long.

The morning light had faded, and the light of the cloudy day was getting brighter and brighter, more and more dazzling.

The armor and swords and guns of the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were very dazzling in the light of the cloudy day.

Ying was quick to move, Yu Xuan and the other ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were fast, so that Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng had already been controlled before they could react.

"Ying Zhao, what are you doing here?" After being stunned for a moment, Wei Zheng slapped the table angrily, his face widened with anger, and he stared at Ying Zhao, who was smiling and silent not far away, and asked, "You are trying to provoke a war." ”。

"I just wanted to, and I wouldn't do it. It's just that your country has never had any credibility to speak of, and we have to prepare some chips. Ying Zhao smiled unabated, and said kind words to the angry Wei Zheng, as well as the pale-faced Lu Zhidao: "But you don't have to be nervous, my country will bear your food and drink to ensure that you eat and drink well." ”。

"Take it away!" Immediately after, Ying Zhao gave an order without waiting for Lu Zhidao to scold.

He had already prepared a place to place the ghosts of the Northern Yin Dynasty, and Yu Xuan and his soldiers knew it. At the moment, no matter how Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng scolded, the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom twisted them away and left.

"When you get to the place, remember to compensate them. When Yu Xuan and the others walked to the door, Ying Zhao gave another admonition.

"Got it. In the loud shouting and scolding, Yu Xuan also replied loudly with his throat, and then led his troops to take away the ghost envoys of the Beiyin Dynasty.

The scolding gradually faded away, and calm was restored in the military yamen, and Ying Zhao sat down in his chair again, slowly closing his eyes and taking a long breath.

These troubles have finally come to an end. Ying Zhao can also give a satisfactory explanation to Yuque City.

"Lord Jiang, please go and arrange a civilian boat. Twenty people were selected from the ghost soldiers brought by Lu Zhidao to board the ship, and some sailors and a few ghost officials were selected, and our sailors escorted them to the sea area of the Beiyin Dynasty, so that they could send the terms of the peace negotiations to the capital as soon as possible. ”。 Ying Zhao slowly opened his eyes after a long time, picked up the peace talk book on the table, and handed it to Jiang Ziwen.

Jiang Ziwen nodded, took the peace talk and turned to leave.

Ying Zhao's gaze also moved to Ji Kang's face not far away.

"Master Ji Kang, you have been a scribe for the lord, and you know the operation mechanism of material scheduling. After Ying Zhao's slightly expectant gaze fell on Ji Kang's face, he said: "Soon there will be supplies and troops, and they will be transferred to the island little by little." You have to help me dispatch supplies to ensure that every island in the sea, and the larger reefs, are gradually built into our maritime fortifications. ”。

The Nine Shadows had been preparing for the reception of these islands long before the negotiations began. Once these scattered islands and reefs are used to build fortifications on the sea, with a powerful sailor, Shuoyue Island and Sanxing Island, as well as Black Dragon Island, will no longer be the only barrier to the north of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

"Is it starting so soon?" Ji Kang thought to himself, nodded his head, and responded.

"The craftsmen and designers of the construction will also arrive on Shuoyue Island soon. When the time comes, you can follow their progress and be responsible for completing the construction of these fortifications. After Ying Zhao explained one more sentence, he stood up, walked down from the chair, picked up the peace negotiation book of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and said to the scribes around him: "All the materials and records during the negotiation period will be sorted out immediately and sent to the Yuque Palace for archiving." ”......

The sea is calm and sunny. The area of Qinglong Sea close to Dongyingzhou is stormy and choppy.

The monstrous waves roared again and again, like angry beasts, tirelessly crashing into the charred corpses at the foot of Dushuo Mountain, shattering into a splash.

The canopy of the giant trees on the mountain was wide, obscuring the cloudy sky and the wind-dense showers.

Let the ground in the mountains not be muddy.

Only the howling yin wind shuttled back and forth under the huge shadow of the canopy, and the big peach trees all over the mountain were also trembling and rustling in the cold and cold yin wind.

The army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom has completed the reconstruction of the fortifications on this mountain. At the foot of the mountain, a strong wall was built around the mountain, and along the coast along the river, you can see the rushing river and the rolling waves on the sea from the battlements of the forts in most places.

The sturdy and steep slopes on the mountain have also been transformed into hidden forts or forts, connected by plank roads or hidden passages that cannot be seen in the mountain. The situation is dangerous, the walls are tight, and all kinds of artillery from the Nine Hidden Countries are built-in, forming an all-round firepower point, which can cover the artillery attack in all directions under the mountain, a range of a few miles to more than ten miles.

The four small fortresses on the mountainside are built against the mountain, forming the third barrier of Dushuo Mountain. The soldiers stationed in the city can be supported at any point in the mountains at any time.

This makes Dushuo Mountain even more impregnable.

The top of the mountain is the garrison of the air cavalry and the flying army, and it is also the last defense of this mountain city.

King Yama believed that placing the air cavalry and the flying army on the top of the mountain, a condescending dive, could serve as a fatal blow to the enemy on the battlefield.

In addition, the top of the mountain is far away from the foot of the mountain, and the air cavalry, flying army, and flying cars can quickly maneuver to any point in the mountain, so the king of Yama concentrated most of the air troops of the local garrison on the top of the mountain.

He had the sappers of the army build a number of sturdy houses on the big trees, and erected them among the strong and thick branches for the air force to live in.

There was also an armory and a part of the granary, hidden in the dense foliage of the canopy.

A circular staircase was also built around the trunk of the tree, leading from the foot of the tree to the top of the tree.

Compared to when the Northern Yin Dynasty still occupied this place, the Nine Shadows Kingdom made the current Dushuo Mountain fully armed, and it was even more impregnable.

The cold wind blew through the yamen of the military government under the tree on the top of the mountain, and he sat in the main hall and watched the battle reports sent from all over the country. And Shuyan, who had rushed back from the front line, was not far in front of him, standing silently, waiting for King Yama to give orders.

King Yama recruited her from the front line in the southeast region of Dongying Continent for one thing - defense in the rainy season.

The rainy season in Dongyingzhou is coming, and it has been raining heavily for more than ten days in a row, and the water level of rivers and lakes in various parts of the continent has risen fiercely. The roads are muddy and difficult to navigate.

In such a situation, it is not easy to send troops and deliver supplies. And the ghost countries in all parts of the continent have tacitly entered the armistice period.

The Nine Shadows Kingdom is no exception, but if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, and the king of Yama knows that among these enemies in the continent, there is no shortage of stunned enemy generals.

He didn't dare to guarantee that any enemy of the Nine Shadows Kingdom would be hot-headed, even if the roads were muddy, he would take advantage of this to suddenly send troops to attack the pass strongholds, towns, and garrison areas of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in Dongying Continent.

Although the defense measures have been prepared in advance, it is better for the king of Yama to be cautious for the sake of insurance. In particular, the area that Shuyan is responsible for is connected to the southern border of the Qingqiu Fox Country, so he must be even more cautious.

Now the relationship between the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom and the Nine Shadows Country is delicate, and it is no longer the glue-like paint it used to be. At this time, King Yama had to guard against the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, and he had secretly received a tip, and several other ghost countries that were still resisting had already secretly contacted the Qingqiu Fox King.

Although he didn't know what they were plotting, King Yama vaguely sensed that this was not a good thing. It is very likely that those ghost countries are already preparing to form an alliance with the Qingqiu Fox Country. Of course, it was not to stop the military disaster, but more like a conspiracy to join forces to drive the Nine Shadows Kingdom out of Dongying Continent.

The king of Yama must be fully prepared, so that if any accident occurs, the Nine Shadows Kingdom can also deal with it, and he can't suffer too much loss.

Therefore, Shuyan was transferred back from the front line first, ready to discuss the matter of defense.

"Shuyan, you sit down and take a sip of tea first. King Yama raised his eyes, glanced at Shuyan, and then looked down at the military report in his hand: "I still have a little report here, so I'm about to finish it." ”。

Shuyan didn't move when she heard this, and still stood in front of King Yama with her hands behind her back. Regardless of the chair set up on the side, he didn't care about the steaming hot tea on the small desk next to the chair.

just replied to King Yama: "Thank you Dashuai, but no, I'll just stand and wait." ”。

When the words landed, King Yama had already finished reading the report in his hand and put it down, smiled, and gave an order: "Captain Shuyan, this commander orders you to sit down and talk." ”。

At the sound of an order, Na Shuyan shouted sonorously: "Yes." ”。

Then she strode to the side, and sat down on the chair that King Yama had set up for her.

But he is also sitting upright, with a straight waist.

"I called you here for one thing, about the pass that is close to the southern border of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, the defense of the military town area, and the future deployment of troops. After seeing her sit down, King Yama began to get down to business, and said to Shuyan without concealment: "There is always a sign that the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom is not our reliable ally. We can't take the initiative to attack, but we have to prepare in advance. I don't want to be passive in defense, so once the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom turns around, you can't just defend passively, you have to attack immediately, take offense as defense, and teach them a painful lesson. I'd like to hear your thoughts, and we'll put it all together. ”。

Shuyan nodded silently, as a military general, she had been on the battlefield for nearly a year, and she had accumulated a lot of experience.

After the rainy season of Qingqiu Fox Country began, he suddenly secretly increased his troops on the southern border, which attracted Shuyan's attention.

Combined with what was said in the Di newspaper, Tu Yaoqing fell to death Xiao Shizhu's youngest daughter Xiao Fuyu for a while, and Shuyan on the front line already smelled a hint of crisis.

Before she came, she had already made a defensive deployment. But for now, defense alone is not enough. King Yama had obviously calculated that once the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom really turned its face, he would have to fight back quickly.

"In fact, the rainy season in Dongyingzhou this year is early, and the rainfall is heavier than in every year in the past 1,000 years. Most of the entire Dongyingzhou area is covered with dark clouds and rain for days. The muddy roads and rising river levels not only made it difficult for our army to wage a large-scale war, but also caused the same problems for the enemy country. Shuyan, who had been silent for a long time, slowly spoke: "However, it is okay for a small army to attack quickly. Whether it is our army or the enemy army, this kind of ghost weather, rain and fog is confused, and it will not disperse for a long time, and it can more effectively hide the traces of the march. Being a real ghost in the rain and fog, coming and going without a trace, will only make the opponent unguardable. ”。

Outside, the wind and rain became more intense, forming an overwhelming curtain of rain, shrouding the dim sky and earth. Under the huge canopy of big trees, the military yamen was not shrouded in rain and fog.

But beyond the canopy, the rain curtain shrouded in the unexpected place of Dushuo Mountain, the rain and fog dispersed, and the visibility was extremely low. Two or three feet away, you can't see anything clearly.

King Yama of the military government yamen bowed slightly, agreeing with Shuyan's inference. He also knew that such weather was a strategy suitable for a small army to constantly attack.

This will make the Nine Shadows defenses overwhelmed.
