The peaks and peaks of the mountain are majestic, and the strange rocks are craggy, and it has always been a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Ь.

One of the main reasons why Shannanwei gave up such a place was because of its sinister landform.

Such a mountain with many boulders is a great trouble for the transportation of military baggage.

There are other places here in Tongzhou for Shannanwei to choose, the strategic position is more important, and it is more convenient to garrison.

After Shannanwei abandoned this place, it was convenient for the bandits in Shannandao.

I don't know when it began, the bandits used Tonshan as their base, and gradually became a den of bandits led by Tonyun Village.

The topographical route of Mt. Tungshan, Du Fengju is very clear, and he also knows which road His Royal Highness Changding is taking, but on the surface, he can't follow this road.

His every move was under the close attention of Ling Hanxiao and the others, and if he acted rashly, it would bring unnecessary trouble to His Highness.

The best way is to follow the arrangement of the pavilion master Zhao Shuao and quietly complete the meeting with His Highness.

So, he secretly gave Wei Yan an order to let Tao Jingyi communicate with Zhao Shuao according to the previous plan to suppress bandits.

Regarding the plan to suppress the bandits in the mountains, he has repeatedly discussed with His Highness, and has also made detailed arrangements based on the characteristics of everyone in the team.

This plan to suppress bandits was formulated for the topography of the mountain, and no adjustments were needed whether His Highness was on the scene or not.

Although Tao Jingyi and Shen Shen were both injured, it was difficult to kill the enemy in person, but there were things that needed to be done.

Therefore, Tao Jingyi is also familiar with this plan.

She recalled the conversation between His Royal Highness and the Pavilion Master on weekdays, and walked straight to Zhao Shuao, trying her best to pretend that nothing happened: "I don't know what arrangements the Pavilion Master has for this trip?"

Zhao Shuao was checking the route of Tonshan Mountain, and when he heard this, he raised his head, and when he saw Tao Jingyi's outfit, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

When he came to the foot of the mountain, His Royal Highness should have changed into a military uniform, but ......

He always felt that His Highness Changding in front of him was a little different from the Highness he had been in contact with in the past.

How to describe it?

Just like a sword, His Royal Highness in the past was covered by a scabbard, and the blade could not be seen, so it was naturally deeper and more unfathomable.

His Royal Highness in front of him seemed to have taken off the scabbard, and the murderous aura was too exposed and too sharp. Ь.

Could it be that this is the difference between being on the battlefield in person?

However, he clearly felt that His Highness was even more intimidating on weekdays.

Zhao Shuao suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, and was about to speak, but Ling Hanxiao, who was not far away, spoke.

"Your Highness, at this time, the sky is dark, and there is a heavy wind and snow, it is really not suitable to go up the mountain to suppress bandits. Why don't you wait for the light tomorrow and be well prepared."

Ling Hanxiao originally planned to go to Tonshan before everyone in the Martial Pavilion, however, after coming to Tungshan, he found that things were really troublesome.

Just now, another of his lieutenants had quietly arrived: the Shannan guard soldiers he had arranged in Tonshan earlier were gone!

This was extremely bad news for him, and what made him even more disturbing was that the Shannan Guard soldiers under his command had not yet arrived, and the scouts who went to transfer troops had not heard from him!

Therefore, Zhao Shuao had to delay and wait until the people in his hands arrived.

Tao Jingyi raised her chin and said coldly, "What? General Ling is not effective in suppressing bandits himself, and the main hall and the pavilion master plan to eliminate harm for the people, can General Ling still stop it?"

These words made Ling Hanxiao's face even more gloomy.

"Besides, the Three Emperor Brothers were taken captive by bandits to the Tung Mountain, saving people is like fighting fire, if there is any loss of life in the Three Emperor Brothers, General Ling can afford it?"

She stared at Ling Hanxiao, smiling rather than smiling, "General Ling's like this has made the main hall more and more suspicious, could it be ...... The captivity of the Three Emperor Brothers is related to the Shannan Wei soldiers?"

"Your Highness speak carefully!" Ling Hanxiao interrupted Tao Jingyi's words, "Your Highness, how could the soldiers collude with bandits if they sacrificed their lives to defend the country? His Highness's slander like this will chill the hearts of the soldiers!"

Tao Jing

Yi Hun didn't care about Ling Hanxiao's pale face, and only said, "The general is too worried, how could this hall have said that the soldiers colluded with bandits? The main hall just thinks that the third emperor brother has an accident within the jurisdiction of Shannanwei, how much does this have to do with the Shannanwei soldiers?"

"......," Ling Hanxiao pursed her lips and said nothing.

Princess Changding has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and he has learned it again.

At this time, the ominous omen in his heart became even more obvious, and he was eager to rush up the mountain himself to find out.

Where did Yun Cong and those soldiers go? Did Hu Chong and Pei Bi catch it? Why haven't the Shannanwei soldiers arrived yet?

Tao Jingyi looked at Ling Hanxiao coldly, too lazy to bother with her lips and tongue.

She remembered Mr. Du Duan's explanation, that is, she came against Ling Hanxiao.

Since Ling Hanxiao did everything possible to delay, she had to facilitate the team to go up the mountain as soon as possible.

It is indeed not suitable to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits when it is dark and snowy, but it is definitely convenient for His Highness to meet them.

"Don't quarrel between the two, the old man is still deciding on this matter." Zhao Shuao on the side said, his face was also a little heavy.

Outside the Tongzhou Mansion, he knew that something must have happened in Tonshan, and he also guessed that His Royal Highness Changding urged Wuge to come because there should be other arrangements.

Just for now......

It was getting late, and it was snowing again, so it was really not the time to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits.

"What do you have to do?" His gaze wandered over Tao Jingyi, Guo Chang and Liu Hui.

Of course, he remembered that the purpose of bringing the Wuge soldiers to Tongzhou in Shannan Province was to compete in actual combat and to elect this year's leader of the martial arts field.

Tongzhou is the location, and the suppression of bandits is the form, and now that they are gathered at the foot of Lishan, they will use this as a battlefield.

Princess Changding, Guo Chang and Liu Hui are the leaders of the three teams, and of course they have to listen to their opinions.

Guo Chang was the first to speak, and replied, "Pavilion Master, since we have arrived here, we should go up the mountain as soon as possible, so that the bandits will not flee when they hear the news."

The order he received was to prompt Princess Changding to go up the mountain, and now that he was at the foot of the mountain, there was no reason to stop.

Moreover, it was a good opportunity for him to act well when it was dark, and he could cover up many things.

Outside the Tongzhou Mansion, Liu Hui was originally in favor, but at this moment, he looked up at Tonshan and hesitated: "Pavilion master, subordinates are not familiar with the terrain, and it is dark to suppress bandits, I am afraid that there will be heavy losses."

The implication is that he does not approve of going up the mountain to suppress bandits at this time.

When Ling Hanxiao heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Liu Hui.

This Mr. Wu Ge's words were in line with his heart.

Zhao Shuao was not surprised by their choice.

Guo Chang has always liked to take the initiative, Liu Hui has done things steadily, and as for Princess Changding...... xь.

Tao Jingyi met Zhao Shuao's gaze, and was about to continue to express her position, when she suddenly heard a familiar and majestic voice in her ears: "Excuse yourself for not feeling well, go back to the carriage immediately!"
