Chapter 445: A Million Lions Cross the River
Spies!
This old man is really a spy!
Although he was mentally prepared in his heart, Tian Ji'an's heart flashed with an indescribable sadness and helplessness.
I have rebelled for so long, and I have been fighting for so long, and as a result, other people's meticulous work has always been in their own lair!
Isn't this equivalent to being one-way transparent to the court, what kind of war is this, what kind of rebellion is it against!
To go a little deeper, just look down every day and don't look up, if Chai Lao Dao Qingxuzi wants to do it to himself, he is afraid that he will die and he will not know how to die.
What made Tian Ji'an even more speechless was that he was specially invited in this fine work, and it took a lot of effort to stay, what is the difference between this TM and death......
Three months ago, or even two months ago......
However, this thought only flashed for a moment and was strangled to death by Tian Ji'an in the bud.
Even if he knew it at the time, there was a high probability that he would not want his life, let alone Ling Chi or anything, the high probability was to put Chai Laodao under house arrest and make him harmless.
As for now, it is even more impossible, and it is pointless to kill Chai Laodao in order to vent his anger.
On the contrary, because of the existence of Chai Lao Dao, there is a way to communicate directly with Henan, saving the trouble of sending people to contact him.
Moreover, Tian Ji'an's previous understanding was not worthless.
It is the same fine work, fine work and fine work are not exactly the same, and the role that high-level fine work can play is far beyond the ability of ordinary small spies.
Compared with Princess Jiacheng, Tian Ji'an and Chai Laodao don't have much contact.
Strictly speaking, before today, Tian Ji'an's understanding of Chai Laodao was limited to Chai Laodao as an old Taoist with good medical skills, good medical ethics, and erudition.
Chai Lao Dao has some influence and identity, whether in Daomen or among the people, but to what extent the identity and influence have reached Tian Ji'an does not know.
In addition, Chai Laodao's other information, including his origin, origin, and relationship with the imperial court, is not understood.
However, these things that Tian Ji'an didn't understand originally determined what role Chai Laodao could play.
This is the reason why Tian Ji'an still chose to test first when he already had speculation.
Fortunately, this exchange was not in vain, and the quality and ability shown by Chai Lao Dao were able to end up with the origin of the orthodox Taoist sect of Nanshan, and his status in the Taoist sect was not low.
Such an identity, if Chai Laodao is willing, can definitely transmit the information he hopes to convey to Henan in the shortest possible time.
After experiencing the initial helplessness and frustration, Tian Ji'an straightened everything out clearly.
In Chai Laodao's eyes, after he reported his identity, Tian Ji'an's face was blue and purple, and then it began to be cloudy and uncertain, until finally Tian Ji'an finally let out a sigh full of helplessness.
"The Taoist has hurt me so badly!"
"This~"
"Originally, I didn't understand why my mother asked me to come, but after knowing the identity of the Taoist, everything suddenly became clear, and with the existence of the Taoist, it would save me too much trouble."
"I don't know what the envoy said?"
"The Taoist should be aware of the recent orders I have made."
"Yes, the envoy"
"Actually......"
It took a whole hour for Tian Ji'an to inform Chai Laodao of what he had thought before, what he had done before and after, his follow-up plans and arrangements, and his expectations for himself and Princess Jiacheng.
After hearing this, Chai Laodao, who was already relaxed, suddenly felt a heavy responsibility, and then the date of the Northern Expedition flashed in Chai Laodao's mind, and the whole person felt bad.
"I understand your intentions, but it seems that all this time is too late."
"How?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the date of the Northern Expeditionary Army's crossing of the river mentioned in the message sent by the general is early tomorrow morning."
Tian Ji'an: ......
Looking at the sky outside, the time had passed, and his scalp was a little numb for a while, but Chai Laodao suddenly clenched his hands and gently moved his shoulders in Tian Ji'an's somewhat puzzled gaze.
"Envoy, for the sake of the future, in order to avoid unnecessary losses, cancel the other plans, and it is best to send messengers to the states and counties of Weibo now...... Make the state and county give up resistance as soon as possible, and as for the plan, ideas and expectations of the envoy, leave it to the old decay. ”
Hearing the voice, Tian Ji'an set his eyes on Chai Lao Dao, and then saw a relieved smile on Chai Lao Dao's old face.
Before Tian Ji'an could say anything, in Tian Ji'an's uncertain gaze, Chai Laodao's body began to shake slightly, and the joints of his whole body began to crackle in the next moment.
In an instant, Tian Ji'an felt a strong aura of slaughter from Chai Laodao's body.
For a while, Tian Ji'an's eyes widened, his mouth opened, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Chai Lao Dao with a kind of point.
"Dao Chief, this ...... on you"
For a while, Tian Ji'an found that he couldn't find a suitable word to describe Chai Laodao.
As the leader of the world's powerful domains, Tian Ji'an has a lot of generals under him, and many of the generals in the army will have a lot of murderous aura lingering on their bodies.
Chai Lao Dao also has it on his body, but it is not exactly the same as the pure murderous and bloody aura on the body of the veteran general in the army.
Looking at Tian Ji'an's stunned appearance, Chai Laodao just smiled and said while stretching his muscles.
"If there is a long time of turmoil today, in the early years of poor road travel around the world, there must always be some body skills, poor road from Zhongnan Mountain, inherited the art naturally from the mountain gate."
As he spoke, Chai Laodao's body began to move rhythmically, the center of gravity of his body decreased, and there was an indescribable murderous aura in his eyes.
In Tian Ji'an's eyes, it was like being stared at by a colorful tiger, which made Tian Ji'an unable to move.
The next moment, a fist swept in front of Tian Ji'an's eyes, and then Chai Laodao's whole person jumped down the mountain with a kind of Menghu downward trend, and hunted in an instant.
Although it was not himself who was facing the target, Tian Ji'an still had more than one season, until this set of fists was completed, Chai Laodao stabilized his body, and his heart returned to his chest, Tian Ji'an found that his whole body was soaked in cold sweat.
There's no way, the murderous aura is really too ancestor.
In the past, when Xiao Junpeng and Lu Xiaobing found Chai Laodao, Lu Xiaobing felt the same strong murderous aura from Chai Laodao's body, and Lu Xiaobing clearly knew that he was not Chai Laodao's opponent.
As it turned out, Tian Ji'an's senses were quite acute. 、
After completing his warm-up, Chai Laodao seemed to be suddenly refreshed.
"This set of poor road is said to be inherited from the immortal master Bian Que, Bian Que immortal master has a set of techniques used to strengthen the body called the five bird play, the poor road is used from the tiger fighting technique of the transformation, please rest assured, although the poor road has not moved for some years, today a little activity, the state is still the same."
A quarter of an hour later, the silent barracks in Weizhou City quickly became busy, and a large number of elite Wei Boya soldiers began to put on armor and carry troops into a state of readiness.
Two quarters of an hour later, the sound of hurried and determined footsteps could already be heard in the streets of Weizhou City, and in many places, the smell of killing and blood had spread.
Another quarter of an hour later, the sound of horses' hooves was already heard on the streets of Weizhou City, and the sound of huge horses' hooves kept coming.
At the same time, several city gates in Weizhou City were opened at the same time, and a team of messengers from Jinjin and a team of messengers took the warrant issued by Tian Ji'an and went out directly and ran into the distance.
Among the backs that rushed into the distance, there was a back with a white beard, and a whole group of more than a dozen elite Wei Boya soldiers followed closely behind this figure, quickly rushing towards the southwest.
Two hours later, the group had rushed out of a hundred miles and arrived at the north bank of the Great River.
At this moment, the scenery of the north and south of the river is very different.
To the north of the river, everything is calm, as on a normal day, without any difference.
However, looking across the river, there are countless starlight spots on the south bank of the river, and the full starlight can stretch for miles away, and just from the lights, it can be seen that there is an extremely large army on the opposite side.
Chai Laodao was fine, he just let out a sigh, but the Wei Boya soldiers who followed Chai Laodao and were responsible for guarding and protecting were dumbfounded.
However, the group had just stopped their horses, and before the tooth soldiers could recover from their shock, more than a dozen elite forbidden army scouts had quietly touched their sides.
People haven't felt it yet, but the war horses under the crotches of more than a dozen people, including Chai Laodao, were startled by the thick murderous aura on the scouts of the forbidden army, and they began to be restless one by one.
Feeling the uneasiness of the war horse under his crotch, Chai Laodao gently comforted.
However, pacification had no effect, and instead of keeping the horses at ease, the horses became more and more restless as the Forbidden Scouts got closer and closer.
At this moment, Chai Laodao suddenly subconsciously looked around in the surrounding darkness, but in the dark night when he stretched out his hand and saw his five fingers, Chai Laodao didn't see anything.
Immediately after, a voice suddenly came from less than ten steps behind the side of Chai Lao Road.
"Password!"
Hearing these two words, Chai Lao Dao knew that the one who was surrounding them at this moment was the legendary forbidden army scout.
Thinking of the terrifying scouts of the forbidden army, Chai Laodao didn't dare to delay any longer, and then riveted his strength and shouted around.
"Zhongshan is pale and yellow from wind and rain, and millions of lions cross the river!"
This sentence came out of Chai Laodao's mouth, from people to horses, and the huge pressure that felt condensed in his body disappeared in an instant.
Immediately after, the voice of response came from the front of Chai Lao Dao.
"It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord."
The passwords of the two sides matched, and the heart that Chai Laodao was hanging on was completely let go, and then continued according to the password in his memory.
"If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old!"
"The right way in the world is the vicissitudes of life!"
The password was completed, and before Chai Laodao could take a good breath, a forbidden soldier wearing light armor suddenly appeared in front of Chai Laodao.
"Changying Army Reconnaissance Battalion, Third Independent Reconnaissance Detachment, Platoon Commander, Lu Shaoxiang."
While speaking and saluting, the forbidden army named Lu Shaoxiang completed the procedural rites in accordance with the regulations, waiting for the other party's response.
But one, two, three......
Including Chai Lao Dao, the dozen or so people on the horse did not respond, and the scouts of the forbidden army, who had already lowered their vigilance, quickly increased their vigilance.
As the military academy named Lu Shaoxiang raised his left hand, including Chai Laodao, more than a dozen people felt that creepy feeling again, and the war horse under his crotch also began to be restless again.
However, although the war horses were anxious, and the cavalry was uneasy, no one made any sneak attacks or counterattacks, looking at the blank expressions of these people, Lu Shaoxiang frowned, and after a moment of thought, he made a judgment, these people may not belong to the forbidden army.
There is a high probability that it should be one of the several groups of people who were ordered to lurk in Hebei in advance and speak again.
"What are you in, why don't you report it in advance."
Reporting?
Listening to the question of the Changying Army Scout Military Academy, Chai Laodao smiled helplessly.
The reason why he knew the identification password was that Guo Rong specially sent someone to send it, after all, Chai Laodao had been lurking in Wei Bojun's henchman, and there was a high probability that he would not have a chance to escape in advance.
Tian Ji'an was not ready to go to war, but Guo Rong didn't know it yet.
In Guo Rong's opinion, if Tian Ji'an chooses to burn jade, it is very likely that a big war will break out in Weizhou, which is the city of Wei Bozhi.
In order to prevent Chai Laodao from being injured by mistake, he had a password that was specially sent over.
He is just a Taoist priest, and he is not a scout of the forbidden army, how can he know the procedures used by the forbidden army to identify friend and foe, but Chai Laodao, a guy with a super high IQ, has also understood the meaning of the so-called identification from these simple words, and immediately imitated the other party's mode of reporting to his home just now.
"Zhongnan Mountain Chongyang Palace, the road number Qingxuzi, was entrusted by General Lu Xiaobing to go to Hebei, and Xiao Junpeng, the nephew of the poor road...... Now there is an emergency, and I need to see His Majesty or General Guo immediately. ”
Hearing Qingxuzi's words, Lu Shaoxiang suddenly realized that he didn't know where Qingxuzi was, but after eliminating the island people who entered the Kou, the Taoist priests sent to Hebei by Lu Xiaobing were real, and these Taoist priests sent back a lot of important information, which played an important role in the follow-up battle.
And when he heard that there was an emergency at the end, Lu Shaoxiang didn't dare to slack off.
"Okay, don't worry, but for the sake of safety, and at the same time reduce the procedure as much as possible, don't waste time, only the Taoist can go!"
looked at Wei Boya, who was heavily armed and sent to protect him, and understood what the other party meant, it was easy to control by himself, but it would be troublesome to bring these people behind him, so he nodded and said hello.
Hearing that Chai Laodao had no objections, Lu Shaoxiang did not delay any longer and said directly, "I'll arrange it immediately, Xiao Wu!" ”
"Here!"
With the voice, a tall, but young Janissary scout quickly rushed in front of him.
"Xiao Wu, you take your squad and escort this Qingxuzi Dao Commander across the river and go directly to the Chinese army!"
"Yes!"
After a simple deployment and explanation, Wei Boya's soldiers stayed in Hebei, while Chai Laodao quickly sailed south under the escort of Yishi scouts.
Before dawn, the dusty Chai Laodao smoothly came to the Chinese army of the Changying Army, heard the information brought by Chai Laodao, and after a burst of cheers, the staff officers excitedly revised the plan again.
In the early morning of the sixth day of the first month of November, Li Chun, who had stayed in Baima for a day, under the protection of Guo Rong, inspected the first batch of Changying soldiers who would cross the river north in Baima.
At the right time, Li Chun, dressed in military uniform, officially issued the order for the Northern Expedition.
At the same time, from Luoyang in the west to Jeju in the east, nearly ten ferries including Sujuo, Baima, Luxian, Puyang, Yucheng and Licheng were nearly ten ferries, and thousands of sails competed, and 100,000 soldiers and horses mainly from the forbidden army boarded the ship and went north at the same time.
Some people died, but not completely......
