Chapter 877: Letter from the North

Boom, a resounding eagle chirp fluttered in the air, and in a cloud like a marshmallow, a black dot fell rapidly, like a high-speed diving fighter, straight towards the ground.

When it was still more than two hundred meters above the ground, this eagle falcon with green feathers and extraordinary horses spread its wings, and its wings more than three feet wide rolled up a strong wind, whistling towards the ground, raising a large amount of dust, flapping its wings, and grabbing the trunk of an old tree with a pair of sharp claws.

This kind of eagle, known as Xun Eagle, is one of the many bird eggs that Leng Zhuo snatched from the Eagle Crack Canyon back then, there are four in total, among many eagle beasts, it is considered a small one, but this kind of eagle is a wind attribute, flying as fast as a gust of wind, and it also has a characteristic, that is, knowing the way, with a little training, it can become a swift eagle.

Xunying can bring a lot of information, which is better than the carrier pigeons and eagles used in the past, the only pity is that the number is too small, and the Xunying in Leng Zhuo's hands, two are in the north and two are in Shuzhou.

Leng Zhuo is still in Yangzhou, firstly, Yangzhou is not stable, and it has not been long since various places have taken over, and the transfer of power in Yangzhou is still in progress, on the other hand, it is also paralyzing the Holy Sect, making him think that his recent attention is on Yangzhou, and he has no time to take care of the direction of Shuzhou.

In the courtyard, Zhou Yu and Guo Jia entered the courtyard one after another, sitting on the bamboo chair under the shade: "Your Highness!" occupies Yangzhou, according to the agreement, Leng Zhuo will be crowned king, this matter is almost no accident, Wei Guogong has sent a letter back to the imperial city, at the moment, the court of Yunzhou should not be difficult with Leng Zhuo, a person who holds the military power of the two states, on this issue.

Leng Zhuo smiled on his face and said, "Your Highness doesn't deserve it, and the imperial court in the north doesn't know if it can issue a holy decree, take a look, when the news comes back from the imperial capital, the Qingzhou army has crossed the river!" Leng Zhuo's face became serious as he spoke.

Zhou Yu and Guo Jia immediately glanced at each other, obviously the two of them were a little surprised by this information, but then the two of them returned to normal and quickly swept the information on the table.

"In terms of intelligence, it seems that the language is unknown, and there is no mention of how the Qingzhou Army crossed the Qinluo River, and the Yunzhou Navy actually watched the Qingzhou Army cross the Qinluo River and enter the Gyeonggi area, which is ......!" Zhou Yu frowned slightly, obviously a little confused about the situation in the north.

"Something must have happened, but we don't know it for the time being, how to cross the river is no longer important, look at this Jinggi Guard, there have been two divisions of the Gyeonggi Guard, there is infighting, and the Qingzhou Army is advancing rapidly, and it has reached Kaiping, two hundred miles away from Wanlong City!" Guo Jia obviously cared more about the attack speed of the Qingzhou Army and the changes in the Gyeonggi area.

Leng Zhuo also sighed lightly, and said: "This court is about to end, Situ Piaoxue has long been arranged in the Gyeonggi area, and His Royal Highness in the palace relied on the elite forbidden army under Bai Qi's command and the power of the Dongfang family to ascend the throne!"

"Bai Qi is now in the south of Qingzhou, which can be regarded as cutting off the back road of the Qingzhou army, but it is not that the Yunzhou naval army that has cut off the contact with the north and has not blocked the Qingzhou army from going north must also have a problem, the Dongfang family will not betray their nephew emperor, but now that the situation has developed like this, I am afraid that the sky in Gyeonggi will change soon!"

"There are nearly 600,000 troops in the Gyeonggi area, but almost all of them have been recruited in recent years, the old forbidden army has long been mastered by the princes when they turned against them, and the combat power of these more than 600,000 soldiers and horses is far inferior to the Qingzhou Army and the Youzhou Army, and with the current intelligence, these 600,000 soldiers and horses will not even have the least resistance, and the internal strife and disintegration of one or two divisions have already explained the problem, and now Gyeonggi can only use it, it seems that only the royal guards!"

"Although the royal guards are strong, there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses, and it is difficult to defeat four hands with two fists, not to mention that if you want to seize the throne, you don't have to die, I think Situ Piaoxue's plan is more than that, she must have an easier way to take Tianlong City, this big gamble, they won!"

"It's just that Kong has won a throne, and the territory that can be controlled has not expanded much, but His Highness should contact General Bai Qi!"

"Well, it's time to meet him, I haven't seen him for seven or eight years since I said goodbye to Phoenix City, but unfortunately I can't beat gongs and drums to greet him, it's not time yet!"

"General Bai Qi occupies the south of Qingzhou, which happens to be a barrier, so that there is a barrier between us and the northern court, so that there is more room for maneuver, hehe, if that Situ Hao knows, we are in a group, I don't know if it will be a feeling!"

"I guess my face will be very dark, haha, he changed a chassis, but the ground that can be controlled has not increased much, but there is a stove under that position, sit on it and wait to be roasted, by the way, how is the reorganization of the Yangzhou army!"

"It's still going on, the folk customs of Yangzhou are relatively weak, it's okay to choose some water troops, but if you want to use it for land warfare, it's mud that can't support the wall, if you can recruit people from Taicang into the army, you can still make up a strong army, if it's somewhere else, it's better to go to other places to recruit!" Zhou Yu said.

"Taicang, that place can't be touched yet, and Yangzhou doesn't need too many soldiers and horses to be stationed, there is a Baiqi army stationed in the south of Qingzhou in the north, our Chuzhou in the west, and Dayue Miao in the south, it is safe on three sides, the only thing to worry about is the area facing the sea in the east, and the 100,000 soldiers and horses transferred to Yangzhou will be arranged under the command of your Suzhou Legion, and the task is to defend the sea frontier!"

"In addition, I also transferred a sailor division from Xiangyang to help you build a frame for the Yangzhou navy, and now the Yangzhou shipbuilding industry has begun to rush to work, but if you want to regain control of the coast, it is estimated that it will take some time, you are stationed in Yangzhou, within three or five years, you must give me a navy that can cross the ocean!"

Zhou Yu nodded heavily, and said: "I will live up to His Highness's entrustment, within three years, the Yangzhou Navy will crisscross the open sea and recapture the Penglai Islands, so that there will be no more criminals in Yangzhou!"

"I heard that Ziyang seems to have proposed a tunnel plan, and wants to dig the mountain directly to Shuzhou?" Leng Zhuo turned his head, looked at Guo Jia, and said.

Guo Jia was in charge of military affairs in the direction of Shuzhou by Leng Zhuo's side, and when he heard Leng Zhuo ask, Guo Jia nodded and said: "Well, there is indeed such a thing, and from the news sent back, it seems that there is a lot to be done, some time ago, the generals in the mountains captured a pangolin king, and used this pangolin king to subdue hundreds of high-level pangolins, and using these pangolins, they have opened the belly of a big mountain!"

"It's much easier to open a mountain with these pangolins, but if you want to be able to march and be a camp, you need to expand the tunnel, and there is also enough space in the mountain to set up a camp, which is not a small trouble, but judging from the news, it seems to be quite successful!"

"It's a whimsical method, but it's really done, but it's a great move, opening up the mountain road from Ziyang to Shuzhou, which undoubtedly makes the connection between the two places closer, and there is this road, the huge treasure house of 100,000 mountains can not be developed!"

Leng Zhuo thinks naturally on the good side, if he can build a city in the belly of the mountain, then he will settle down in the 100,000 mountains, supply points, and this passage connecting Chu and Shu can also play a big role, as long as he sees the benefits, I believe that many people will flock to it, and there are many people, Jialin Mansion and Shuzhou Tusi Department are not in the field, and they can really integrate it into his system

"But it's not that easy to develop this mountain road!"

"Hehe, now as long as you can open an easy road to pass the soldiers and horses, as for the future, take your time, how is the battle situation in Shuzhou!"

"The army of the king of Shu launched a counterattack before the autumn harvest, which was very fierce and caused a lot of losses to the Holy Sect, but fortunately, the Holy Sect knew that it was not facing a soft persimmon, and put a lot of effort into the defense, and finally blocked it, in the two prefectures of Chuxi, the Holy Sect had just issued the third forced conscription order, and the young people who were almost able to fight were pulled into the army, and it seems that the Holy Sect is planning to use the tactics of the sea of people again!"

"Pay close attention to it, let them fight slowly, but the King of Shu has to find a way to solve it, he is too much of a threat to us!" Leng Zhuo said: "I'll think about this matter again, arrange the meeting with Bai Qi as soon as possible, and I will rush back to Vermilion Bird City before the year!"

As a satellite city on the outskirts of Gyeonggi, Yuseong, a small city east of Gyeonggi, is not as prosperous as Tegyeong, but a main street is also quite lively, but as the war approaches, the street has become much deserted.

In December, the north has begun to cool down, get up in the morning, you can see the white ha, Bao Xiaotian sat on the largest teahouse on the street, black tea, singing, passing the early morning time.

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly skimmed a figure, strode into the teahouse, kicked, a rush of footsteps came from downstairs, getting closer and closer, and after a while, a middle-aged man who was wet with water mist came to Bao Xiaobi.

"The shopkeeper, finally found out, the Yunzhou Navy was defeated in the open sea, and the flag of the Japanese appeared on the sea, we also confirmed from the fishermen at sea, in recent days, there are indeed some boats in the Japanese language through the sea, and also sank a lot of fishing boats, we guess they are heading towards Yunzhou Bay, I sent two brothers to that side, if there is really something will be the first time to report!"

"Well, can you know the situation at sea at that time?"

"I don't know this yet, the person we found is just an ordinary sailor, I don't know much, but they escaped back, the commander of the ship should know more, I have sent someone to inquire where they are hiding, it is estimated that there will be news soon!"

"This matter should be done as soon as possible, this is your hard-earned money this time, bring people over, and there is a bounty waiting for you, go!"

"Hey, then I'll go!" the man weighed the weight of the bag and left the teahouse satisfied. Clear
