"But...... They're really heading east......"

The sentry observed and reported, then continued: "After going some way to the east, they extinguished the torches, and now there is no trace of them. ”

The time is almost past midnight (3:00-5:00), but the weather is still dark.

After the torch was extinguished, calm returned to the lake.

The lake was calm, but Qi Xian began to laugh again.

Seeing this, the rest of the people began to wonder.

I saw Qi Xian said with a smile on his face: "The carving insect skills also dare to get an axe, they are playing a trick to lead the water to the east!" ”

"Woe to the East?!"

Although the crowd couldn't understand it, they felt that their Metropolitan Governor seemed to be very powerful.

And Qi Xian didn't let everyone wait too long, so he began to explain silently.

"Chang Guo must have found that his plan had failed after he came, but he didn't dare to admit that I had discovered their tricks, so he simply threw this pot directly to the Great Xia Kingdom in the East, so that we could think that these warships were from the Great Xia Kingdom, but what they didn't know was that the Great Xia Kingdom actually didn't even have warships at all!"

"If what I expected, after a long voyage, they silently extinguished the torches and then smeared and returned to Changguo, how can such a small skill of carving insects hide from my eyes!"

Sure enough, after a while, the originally bright torch gradually went out, and Lake Tai continued to return to calm at this moment.

"It's really said by the Metropolitan Governor!"

"It's really worthy of being the Metropolitan Governor, and the observation is deeper than ours!"

"The Metropolitan Governor is really a man of God!"

A group of sycophants were so fluttering that they almost floated into the sky.

However, what he didn't know was that the gradual disappearance of the torches was just because of the fog that made it impossible to see clearly, and it was in the warship at this moment......

"Aha Brother Di smokes Huazi!! ”

"Don't don't, I'm only fifty years old, don't call me brother, come and smoke me!"

Not only Di Renjie and Xu Jing, but all the soldiers were also excited at the moment, just because the ship at this moment could be full of endless treasures.

Everyone lit a Huazi in their hands, smoked it in a very comfortable mood, and then took a sip of the wine they carried with them, which was simply as happy as a fairy.

And in some cabins, the sound of playing cards has even sounded.

How nervous I was when I experienced the baptism of arrow rain just now, and how excited I am now, it is because of this that the hand that throws the cards is even heavier.

Syllable!! Syllable!! Syllable!!

On each ship was the sound of playing cards constantly smashing on the table, as if this was the only way to vent their feelings.

It's so cool, it's so cool!

At this moment, Di Renjie finally began to talk to Xu Jing about everything.

It turned out that the two had already passed letters to each other a few days ago, and this method was now determined.

First of all, Di Renjie needs to urge the ship to be completed on time, and at the same time, he must choose a foggy night.

Then, countless scarecrows need to be tied to the ship, and their main function is to pierce all the arrows that come at them.

Now, after countless rounds of arrow rain baptism, the straw men on every ship have been pierced with arrows at this moment.

Moreover, there are all Jiang Han arrows that are frightened by various countries.

There is no doubt that with these arrows, Great Xia's chances of winning against the Yu Kingdom will be countless times greater.

The more Xu Jing listened, the more excited he became, he was about to jump up at this moment, holding Di Renjie's hand and trembling.

"It's really something, you still have to rely on Master Di and Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, this method is simply seamless!"

Hearing this, Di Renjie just held Huazi in one hand and slowly swayed with the other.

"No, no, Xu Shangshu, you have forgotten our majesty!"

Hearing Di Renjie say this, Xu Jing quickly understood.

"Yes, sure enough, in the end, His Majesty is the most sensible and calculates everything in an orderly manner!"

"Yes, yes, that's it, today's matter is obviously that His Majesty has already thought of all the strategies to deal with the enemy, just to see if we can share their worries!"

"Now it seems that we have finally lived up to Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

At this moment, Xu Jing has completely understood Xia Yan's good intentions under Di Renjie's puzzle.

His Majesty the Emperor is still very thoughtful.

I once suspected that Xia Yan was a faint gentleman, but now it seems that he is simply slapping himself in the face.

Look at people, it has been calculated a long time ago that there will be such a battle now.

Although it is said that the treasury and silver have skyrocketed because of the collection of the squire's money, the money of the province still needs to be saved.

No, this not only saved the money for making arrows, but also got the famous Jiang Han arrows among countries by the way.

After getting off the boat, Xu Jing took a cursory look at the straw men on each boat and showed an extremely happy smile.

At this moment, it was already dawn, and all the warships were towed ashore, and Xu Jing slightly estimated that there were at least five thousand arrows on each boat.

Thirty ships came down, and it is estimated that at least 150,000 arrows were obtained.

There is no doubt that with the addition of these arrows, the balance of war will be completely tilted in favor of you.

"Let's go, we need to transport these arrows to the front line as soon as possible, Prime Minister Zhuge and they probably need these arrows too."

Hearing this, Xu Jing also nodded, and said directly to one of his subordinates on the side: "Help me and Di Shangshu ask for leave today and tomorrow, and the two of us will not go to the early court." ”

Then the subordinate nodded and left, and the rest of the people began to roll up their sleeves and start arranging the arrows.

As the sky had begun to get brighter, it was not good for the ships to get too close to Lake Tay.

Fortunately, all the warships have pulleys underneath, so that as long as you push them, you can get a little farther away from Taihu Lake.

It wasn't until they pushed out a few hundred meters to make sure that they would not be seen, and everyone began to carefully count the supplies.

Anyway, the two of them don't plan to go to the morning today, and it's also a good choice to enjoy the results of their night here.

A large group of soldiers kept packing and arranging, and these arrows would be the key to the victory of the Great Xia army on the battlefield.

At the same time, Xia Yan, who was above the court, yawned and looked at the few people who disappeared below in confusion.

"Where are these Xu Shangshu and Di Shangshu?"

At this time, the remaining six old men looked at each other, and after some eye contact, it was confirmed that everyone did not know about it, and then Zhu Ming could only stubbornly come out of the ranks.

"Uh...... We don't know ...... either."

"You don't know?"

Xia Yan was also stunned for a moment, the seven old men had a close relationship with each other, but there were no secrets between them, and they didn't even know about them.

Suddenly thinking of something, Xia Yan's heart suddenly gave birth to a bad feeling.

Could it be ......
