The fire flickered, and Li Xuan placed the brush in his hand on the pen holder.

After drying it slightly, Li Xuan picked up the letter paper on the table and put it into the letterbox, and then shouted in a low voice: "Come on, send the letterhead to the state city immediately, and then ask Wang Tingshi to send the secret letter to the Shendu immediately." ”

"Obey!" Li Zhu immediately flashed out of the darkness, took the letter, and then turned to leave, the sound of hurried footsteps quickly disappeared.

At this time, Li Xuan stood up from behind her chair.

Walking out of the official house, Li Xuan walked casually in the entire palace of the captain of the guard.

At this time of the year, it was not as brightly lit as it is now.

Some people are really tired, and after the First World War, they haven't woken up until now.

Some people have never come back at all, and have slept forever.

Although some people are still awake, the desire to kill has passed, and their spirits are numb, but they toss and turn, and they still can't sleep.

Raising his head, Li Xuan looked at the night sky above his head.

The crescent moon is like a hook, the stars are dotted, and the earth is dark, but in the far west pole, there is a star that stands out.

The name of that star is the Evening Star.

But it also has another name, called Daystar.

At dusk, it is called the Evening Star, but when it is bright in the morning, it is also called the Morning Star.

One after the other, the dusk dawned, and this turned out to be the same planet.

It's like a circle, drawing a reincarnation.

Li Xuan suddenly retracted his thoughts, then turned to look in the northwest direction, where three entries rose at the same time.

[Ye Wanwan, the holy daughter of the Tianyin Sect - controllable, markable, believer]

[Zhang Wanyu, the hall master of the Yuhang Hall of the Tianyin Sect, the middle realm of the Xuantian fetus (minor injury)]

[He Qing'er, Tianyin Sect Keqing; Believers, obedient to the host's words, firmly believed, unwavering]

The three of them were still gathered together, but the current location of the three of them was in a valley more than ten miles away from Meiling Pass.

No one knows when they came to a place so close to Meiling Pass.

At this time, Meiling Pass is lax, and as long as the three of them are careful, they can kill in immediately.

Li Xuan's gaze switched over in an instant,

……

The stream flowed from the side of the valley, and a figure knelt on the bank of the stream, and in front of him, stood Zhang Wanyu with a cold face.

"Didn't I tell you, let you wait, let you wait, why don't you listen to orders?" The fire in Zhang Wanyu's heart was about to explode, and she couldn't hold it down.

She had already tried her best to remind her, although the Muzhou branch was a step slower when she received the order, she immediately sent a message to Luo Yongjie.

Luo Yongjie should have received a notification long ago before arriving at Meiling Pass, but he still went, and he still had nearly a thousand people, all of whom were lost under Meiling Pass.

Thousands of people, thousands of core soldiers.

This number is that Zhang Wanyu felt a burst of heartache when she heard it.

With so many casualties among the soldiers, it has greatly shaken the plan of the Tianyin Sect, and even the Holy Queen will pay attention to it.

"The father-in-law's personality is arrogant and daring to fight, and the holy queen also praised it back then, so over the years, the father-in-law has become more and more unable to listen to people's persuasion." After the figure bowed heavily, he raised his head helplessly.

Luoshan, this person is Luoshan.

One of Luo Yongjie's several sons, in this battle, he was the only one who survived this battle.

"What arrogance and daring to fight is nothing more than complacency." Zhang Wanyu scolded coldly, then turned to look at Ye Wanwan and asked, "Holy Maiden, what about the five hundred people who come now?" ”

"What to do, I can only withdraw." Ye Wanwan let out a long sigh, then looked at Meiling Pass, and said with fear in his eyes: "Hall Master, I have a feeling that if you want to win Meiling Pass, I am afraid that the sect will have to pay a lot of price, have you ever thought about trying to take another road, such as Sanhe Pass." ”

Zhang Wanyu shook her head helplessly: "The Holy Maiden is not unaware, the training of the sailor is many times higher than that of the soldiers on land, and without the handwritten instructions of the Holy Queen, no one has the right to mobilize the sailor." ”

……

Li Xuan, who was hiding behind Ye Wanwan, couldn't help but look at her when she heard this.

The Tianyin Sect actually has a water master.

The Tianyin Sect really has a water master.

The Wujiang River flows north, confluence of Lanxi and Qujiang River, merges into Lanjiang River at the foot of Lanyin Mountain, and goes north to Meicheng to join Xin'an River and is called Fuchun River.

Xin'an River, originating in Xiuning, Huizhou, enters western Zhejiang in the east, passes through Chun'an to Jiande, and joins the Lanjiang River.

The Xin'an River Reservoir is Qiandao Lake.

Chun'an and Jiande have always had merchant ships, so it is not uncommon for merchant ships to be transformed into warships.

Combining warships into sailors can almost be said to be inevitable in the Tianyin Sect.

Hangzhou Sailor, Yangzhou Hanjiang Mansion, all are sailors, once from the Fuchun River along the river, you can directly enter Jiande Chun'an, and even enter Muzhou Prefecture.

Although the Tianyin Sect locked up the Wujiang River, this method could not last long after all, so they had to break through Wuzhou before the Hangzhou Sailors entered Chun'an Jiande.

Muzhou Sailor naturally became a necessary choice.

Renovating warships and training sailors, no one knows how long they have been working in secret.

No one knows how big they are now, and they don't know when they will send sailors into Wuzhou.

Li Xuan's mind quickly calmed down.

Move the whole body, Muzhou Navy moves, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Yuezhou, and even Wuzhou have to move.

Although Li Xuan laid a secret hand in advance, it is still difficult to say how much of a role it can play.

The only thing that can be fortunate is that Meiling Pass is land, so there is no need to be threatened by the sailors.

In Ye Wanwan's sight, Zhang Wanyu raised her head, crossed the dense mountains and forests, looked at Meiling Pass, and said coldly: "Let's retreat first, before the king of Nanchang discovers us, we will join the five hundred soldiers, and we can't let them advance anymore." ”

Five hundred, and there are only five hundred people in Muzhou who can come to support Luo Yongjie in time this time.

The Tianyin Sect is about to start an incident, and Muzhou can't spare more manpower to support Luo Yongjie.

With 1,500 people, as long as Luo Yongjie is cautious and fights steadily, even if he can't take Meiling Pass, he won't be wiped out.

But who would have thought that it would be the end of this almost total annihilation.

……

Zhang Wanyu and his party quickly headed towards the north, Li Xuan frowned, and wanted to send an order to Yan Tao to be careful of the reinforcements of the Tianyin Sect, but after thinking about it, he still gave up this idea.

It was all a sudden encounter, and Yan Tao's reaction should be much stronger than the reinforcements of the Tianyin Sect.

In the end, Yan Tao's Wuzhou soldiers had just experienced the war, and their momentum, as well as other aspects, was far stronger than those recruits who had just undergone simple training.

There was no danger on his side.

What Li Xuan needs to think about now is himself.

After the Tianyin Sect, how many people were sent to recapture Meiling Pass.

After the five hundred people retreated, how many people would they organize, when they would arrive, and how much pressure Li Xuan would have.

And the Sailors.

How big is the scale of the sailors of the Tianyin Sect, and if they go directly south, will they be able to hold the Shanhe Pass.

Once the Sanhe Pass is breached, then the Tianyin Sect can go straight to Lanxi County.

Once the county seat of Lanxi falls, then Li Xuan is immediately in danger of being cut off.

……

"Kill!"

The shouts of killing resounded on the mountain road, and a team of Wuzhou soldiers wearing blue robes rushed forward without the slightest hesitation.

The gray-clothed pawn on the opposite side didn't react at all, and he was already directly killed.

In the blink of an eye, the sword light flickered, and blood burst out.

The sharp blade directly cut off the neck, and the blood immediately sprayed over, Yan Tao hurriedly looked sideways to the other side.

A black-clothed general wearing chain mail directly pierced the chest of a Wuzhou soldier with a single shot.

Suddenly, the two looked at each other, and in an instant, the long knife and the sharp lance had already killed each other directly.

"Everyone, don't fall in love with the war, kill and retreat!"

The sharp long knife slashed at the long lance, and immediately burst into countless fires, Yan Tao had already left his previous shouts behind, and fought with the black-clothed general in front of him with all his heart.

The sharp knives and guns only took a few rounds, and the two of them had already tested each other's depths.

The long knife in Yan Tao's hand was immediately stable, but the long lance on the opposite side stabbed directly into Yan Tao's chest and abdomen at this time.

The speed was extremely fast, and Yan Tao didn't have much room to dodge at all.

"Dang" sounded loudly, and the next moment, the long lance on the opposite side waved violently, and in the blink of an eye, the black-clothed general had already retreated into the crowd, and then quickly retreated to the north At the same time, under the blade, a piece of blood also flashed.

Yan Tao's face suddenly became ugly, and immediately after, he turned his head and killed more Tianyin Sect disciples around him.

It didn't take long for a group of Huijifu soldiers to be left around, four or five of them were wounded, and four fell directly to the ground and could not get up again.

But on the other side, when they killed this time, at least dozens of people died under their swords and guns, and they retreated in a panic, and they didn't know how many they trampled on each other.

"Pack up the body, let's evacuate." Yan Tao immediately commanded the manpower and slowly withdrew towards the rear.

Looking at the neat formation from a distance, with a solemn momentum, Zhang Wanyu stood in the dark, her face solemn.

"We're just one step too slow, and we've killed and wounded hundreds of people." Zhang Wanyu clenched her fists tightly, gritted her teeth and said, "How will this battle be fought in the future." ”

"Fight slowly, you can't be in a hurry, you can fight steadily and steadily, there is always a chance to kill under Meiling Pass, and then recapture Meiling Pass." Ye Wanwan looked at the soldiers of the Huiji Mansion who were going away, and the vigilance and solemnity in his eyes were clearly visible.

"The Holy Maiden is right, Hall Master, let's quickly join up with the reinforcements, otherwise we will be in trouble if they find out." He Qing'er hurried to say a few words at this time.

The killing on the battlefield is not comparable to their methods.

The fall of Meiling Pass has already said it all.

"Let's go!" Zhang Wanyu immediately exerted her strength and hurriedly chased in the direction of the defeat of the reinforcements.

A quarter of an hour later, she finally caught up with the black general from there in the ruins of a cottage.

"What a hall master!" Zhang Wanyu just called the other party, and the black-clothed general He Jin subconsciously raised his head, and then hurriedly gave his hand: "Young master, the holy woman ......"

At this time, a figure slowly stood up from behind He Jin.

His face is white, his hair is white, his eyes are sharp, he is wearing a blue palace robe, holding a handful of dust in his hand, and he is dressed as an inner servant.

When this person saw Zhang Wanyu, he immediately couldn't help but shout softly: "Young master! ”

"Mr. Chen!" Zhang Wanyu and Ye Wanwan subconsciously shouted out at the same time.

This manager is not the other manager.

At that time, Chen Shuozhen called himself Emperor Wenjia, and there were already internal servants around him.

Chen Zhong, the most trusted personal attendant by Chen Shuozhen's side.

He is responsible for all the affairs around him.

……

In the brightly lit lobby, Li Xuan suddenly raised his head.

Chen Zhong, the personal attendant of the Empress Dowager, knew the secrets of the Tianyin Sect even more than the person who was in charge of Wen Fuzhi.

Such a figure, how could he suddenly appear on the opposite mountain road.

Did he come to deal with himself?
