Zhu Xiaoqi's wine completely woke up.

He didn't expect that the joke he made with Yang Zifeng that day would become a reality after a drink. The Rising Sun Empire's plan to annex the wolf clan went so quickly that it was beyond his expectations. The wolf clan really found a suitable excuse and plunged a sharp knife into the junction of the wolf clan and the Celestial Dragon Empire.

The reason for sending troops to encircle and suppress the Qingshan Wandering Spirit is something that the wolf clan cannot refuse, even if the general they send is Meng Yi, who is in the limelight, the wolf clan will not be wary. After all, in the past ten years, the Empire of the Rising Sun has repeatedly sent troops to encircle and suppress this group of bandits who have caused great disasters on the border of the Rising Sun, but in the end they have failed.

But Zhu Xiaoqi knew that Meng Yi, who subdued the Wind Spirit Clan in one fell swoop, was definitely an ambitious general. His Wind Spirit Iron Horse is his capital to dominate the world in the future, and it is really overkill to suppress bandits. He personally led his troops to encircle and suppress the Wandering Spirit of Qingshan, probably because he was bent on taking the lead in this big game of chess in the rising sun and then making new contributions. If everything develops according to the plan of the Rising Sun Empire, I am afraid that it will not be long before this sharp knife that cuts the wolf will pierce the wolf's skin and stab the soft underbelly of the Heavenly Dragon Empire.

When that day comes, Blackwater City, which has no danger to defend, will bear the brunt of the attack and feel the great pleasure brought by the Rising Sun Soldiers.

The unexpected news knocked everyone in silence like a slap in the face.

Ruan Yushu was obviously a little proud. He looked at Zhu Xiaoqi and took the initiative to show goodwill: "Stationmaster Zhu, it took me a lot of effort to inquire about this news clearly." As far as I know, many people in the Qingshan Wandering Spirit are soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army who retired after the Battle of the Flying Dragon, and they are the soldiers of General Mu Bai. ”

In his mind, this was a big favor he gave to Zhu Xiaoqi. He could reveal this news to the Qingshan Wandering Spirit in time, so that this group of bandits could withdraw from Daqingshan in advance and avoid the catastrophe in front of him. Once they retreated into the territory of Tianlong, Meng Yi was afraid that there would be nothing they could do about them. Of course, when he thought so, he underestimated both Meng Yi's wrist and the fighting spirit of Qingshan Wandering Spirit.

"It's about me birds. Husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when the disaster came. However, if you naively think that the purpose of Meng Yi's trip is really to suppress bandits, I can only say that everyone is asking for more blessings!" Zhu Xiaoqi forced down the complicated feelings in his heart and coldly threw out a sentence.

Ruan Yushu touched the ash of his nose and didn't know how to answer, so he had to be silent.

Qiao Dali listened with a blank face, not understanding the meaning of Zhu Xiaoqi's words.

But Tie Zheng listened, and his heart couldn't help but move, staring straight at Zhu Xiaoqi, wanting to see something from his face. He also felt that Meng Yi's purpose was by no means as simple as suppressing bandits, as for what it was for, he had been thinking about it but couldn't think of a reason.

"Xiao Qi, if there is anything we can say openly, we can say it today. Since everyone is sitting here today and discussing the future cooperation, it will definitely be a situation of both prosperity and loss in the future. If you have any opinions, let's discuss them together. Tie Zheng said.

Ruan Yushu and Qiao Dali nodded quickly.

Zhu Xiaoqi pondered what to say. He couldn't watch the Qingshan Wanderer fall under Meng Yi's butcher's knife, he had to use the pressure brought by the enemy to pinch this group together to help the Castle Peak Wanderer get through the difficulties.

"What I am saying today is my personal inference, and you can choose to believe it or not to believe it. His gaze swept over the crowd and he said slowly.

"Brother, say it quickly, don't sell it. What you just said made my brother confused!" Qiao urged vigorously.

"Not long ago, I killed the old wolf's head and accidentally found something. Zhu Xiaoqi took out the letter of appointment from his arms, got up and walked to Tie Zheng and handed it over.

After Tie Zheng read it, he handed it to Ruan Yushu again, Ruan Yushu read it and handed it to Qiao Dali, and finally the letter of appointment returned to Zhu Xiaoqi's hand.

"Have you seen it clearly?" Zhu Xiaoqi raised the letter of appointment in his hand, "This old wolf head who does all kinds of evil is actually the major battalion commander of the Wolf Clan Expeditionary Force of the Rising Sun Empire! What is the Wolf Clan Expeditionary Force of the Rising Sun Empire? The Rising Sun Empire is ruthless and wants to swallow the wolf clan whole! Why do you want to annex the wolf clan? Because he has lost patience, this pig-like ally will only follow the ass of the Rising Sun Army in previous wars to reap the benefits, and after reaping the benefits, he will drag down his hind legs by the way!" As long as the Rising Sun Empire succeeded in annexing the wolf clan, their army could easily bypass the strong defensive line laid by General Xiao Yanli in the northwest and launch an attack on the hinterland of the Celestial Dragon Empire at any time. Of course, Tianlong would not sit idly by and watch the Rising Sun's action to annex the wolf clan, so Meng Yi came with the Wind Spirit Iron Horse. The bandit is just a front, what he really wants to do is to deter the Celestial Dragon and clear the biggest obstacle to the annexation of the wolf clan. ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, and even Tie Zheng couldn't accept his astonishingly bold inference for a while.

"What does this have to do with us?" asked Joe Dali. If the Rising Sun really did this, it would be useless for them to be in a hurry, this was a matter for the top management of the Celestial Dragon Empire to consider.

"Blackwater City, with its flat terrain and no danger to defend, is the most suitable area for large-scale military operations on the long border between the Celestial Dragons and the Wolf Clan. Tie Zheng said with a calm face. His military literacy is obviously higher than that of Qiao Dali, and he can see the crux of the problem at a glance.

"It's unlikely, isn't it?" Ruan Yushu shook his head. Three thousand Wind Spirit Iron Cavalry is enough to suppress bandits, but if you want to deter the Heavenly Dragon Empire, I'm afraid the number of troops is too small. Moreover, it seems a bit whimsical to make such a startling conclusion from two small things.

"I'm not sure, but time will tell if my guess is right or wrong. If I'm lucky enough to guess correctly, Blackwater City is bound to be destroyed by the war, and I'm afraid you'll pay a heavy price. At this point, Zhu Xiaoqi didn't bother to explain anything, and let out a sigh with a wry smile.

Not everyone has the wisdom of seeing the subtleties, and not everyone can see through the intrigues and tricks. The reason why he was able to think of this is probably because the person who made the plan was as dark as him and had a similar style to him.

"If you're right, what are we going to do?" Tie Zheng asked with a frown.

"There's only one way to delay their plans. Zhu Xiaoqi said in a deep voice.

Everyone looked at him, waiting for the following. At this time, Tie Zheng already believed his words a little. Qiao Dali didn't want to fight at all, let alone become cannon fodder in front of Meng Yi. Although Ruan Yushu didn't believe it, he didn't dare to bet that all his hard work and efforts would be wasted in Blackwater City, and he would rather defuse the risk as soon as possible.

"Concentrate on beating Meng Yi back, and let the world see the ability of Blackwater City!" Zhu Xiaoqi stood up and shook his fist violently.

Whether they wanted it or not, the four largest forces in Blackwater City hugged each other tightly after this meeting.

A battle plan using the spirit of the green mountains as bait against the famous generals Meng Yi and the Wind Spirit Iron Cavalry has begun to take shape. With Tie Zheng's support, Zhu Xiaoqi became the concrete executor of this plan -- the supreme commander in the future battle. In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, Tie Zheng and Ruan Yushu, who are both in Blackwater City, took the initiative to integrate the elite forces under the two of them, and Tie Zheng was personally responsible for the pre-war training, and cooperated with Zhu Xiaoqi to carry out the operation at any time. Ruan Yushu completely ignored the decree of the Divine Court not to intervene in secular wars, and took the initiative to take on the important task of inquiring about the movements of Meng Yi's army. For him, the one who cuts off his wealth is the enemy, and if he is the enemy, he must find a way to kill him. Qiao Dali's task was relatively much easier, that is, to report the situation of the border enemy to the military in time after Meng Yi arrived, so as to ensure that the combat operations were authorized by the military in a timely manner. The battle must be fought by itself, but the procedure that should be followed must be followed, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble later.

"That's it for now. We are always ready to meet if there is anything new. For the sake of Blackwater City, for the benefit of everyone, everyone should be careful!" Tie Zheng finally said.

When he went out, Zhu Xiaoqi called Ruan Yushu, who was about to get into the carriage.

"Lord Bishop, there's something I want to talk to you about. He said with a grin.

"What's the matter?" Seeing the smile on his face, Ruan Yushu walked over happily. Since the dinner, Zhu Xiaoqi has not given him a good face, but now it has finally changed a little, and he decided to seize the opportunity to enhance his relationship.

"How much did you spend to invite Zheng Mengxiang?" asked Zhu Xiaoqi.

"This ......" Ruan Yushu was stunned.

"I heard that his price is more than 500,000 yuan, and I want to know how much I am worth. ”

"A million gold coins. Ruan Yushu gritted his teeth and responded.

"Oh. The mission failed, and he confiscated the money, right?"

Ruan Yushu nodded.

"That means I saved you a million gold coins, right?"

Ruan Yushu's face was a little abnormal.

"Divide it in half, what's the matter? In order to save you money, I was beaten up fat! Look, one is green here, and one is purple here......" Zhu Xiaoqi rolled up his sleeves and lifted his trouser legs again, revealing the scars that were knocked out on the wall after being kicked away by Cang Yuyao that night.

After Ruan Yushu wrote down an IOU of 500,000 yuan, he finally got out and boarded the carriage and left.

"500,000 ah, 500,000 ah! It's gone! Let me die!" the Bishop wept as he hid in the car and wiped his tears. He made an important decision in his heart: when he saw this shameless person in the future, he must hide as far as he wanted. (Ask for recommendation votes!)
