【907】Fortress

Such an improper design made Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao feel that it was novel, and it could carry more than a car.

It's just that Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao are wrong.

How could the Immortal Cha of the Nine Shadows Kingdom just run on the ground?

Before Wei Zheng could be happy that he had guessed "right", the Immortal Cha, which had glided some distance on the underworld, had raised his head slightly and flew up.

The hot wind brought up by the Hot Wheels spun sharply, rushing in all directions, blowing the trees on both sides of the underworld and the dust swirling on the ground.

When the wind howled, the spells on the surrounding female walls lit up in unison, and an invisible barrier unfolded, enveloping the entire deck, sending the strong wind beyond the deck.

Judging by the spells, this is nothing more than a wind-fixing and wind-proof barrier. The Guanyue Cha of the Northern Yin Dynasty was also blessed with such a spell. So that after the moon rises to the sky, the chariot piloted by the sergeant on the deck will not be blown away by the strong wind in the sky.

This kind of spell on the Nine Shadows Kingdom Immortal Chacha was stolen from the Guanyue Chacha of the Northern Yin Dynasty.

When the surprised Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng, as well as the ghost soldiers of Xudu who accompanied them, did not come to their senses, the Xiancha was already dozens of feet off the ground, and after regaining its stability again, it rode the wind and headed south.

At this time, Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao knew that they had guessed wrong.

This behemoth under their feet can fly.

The wind was strong outside the barrier, but the deck inside the barrier was calm. The accompanying guards had already helped Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng, and after they had tasted the dishes and proved that there was no poison, Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng still did not use chopsticks.

"What's the matter, don't the two adults dare to eat?" Jiang Ziwen, who went and turned back, stood beside Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng, reached out and grabbed a piece of meat from the table in front of the two ghosts, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it carefully, and said: "Don't worry, we all have to protect the two of you during the peace talks, you have to live, otherwise what are you doing after the peace talks?"

Jiang Ziwen swallowed the chewed meat in his mouth, and his face was as usual.

He used himself to tell Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng that the food was not poisonous, and at the same time ridiculed Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao.

Then he praised his subordinates: "Today's chef cooked a good meal, not only appetizing but also delicious. ”。

Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng tacitly ignored him, picked up the chopsticks, and ate casually.

The deliciousness is right in front of you, and you don't eat it for nothing. But just after arriving here, they saw the strength of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in all aspects, which has always made Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao linger, and also made them taste like chewing wax on these delicious foods.

The negotiation plan and momentum they had formulated before were so small and powerless in the face of the powerful national and military strength of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng have already begun to take precautions, trying to change their plans for what to do if the Nine Shadows Kingdom uses their strength to suppress the initiative at the negotiation table?

After frowning slightly, Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng both thought of whether they could use the Nine Shadows Kingdom to rush for peace talks and balance the Nine Shadows Kingdom at the negotiation table, so that the Northern Yin Dynasty would not lose too much.

Thinking of this, after the two ghosts looked at each other, they both smiled.

"My lords, this is our schedule and schedule. Only then did they raise the corners of their mouths, and Jiang Ziwen took out two more booklets and handed them to Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng respectively.

The two booklets are exactly the same size and thickness. On the cover, there are thirteen big characters written "Details of the peace talks between the Northern Yin Dynasty and the Nine Hidden Kingdoms".

"Considering that the two of you have come from afar and have traveled and labored, today we will only let you meet with the officials of the peace talks we have arranged, and then set up a banquet to entertain you and your men. When Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng opened the booklet and looked at it, Jiang Ziwen, who was already sitting on the side, opened his lips and said slowly: "We will arrange your crew and most of the guards on the ship." Your scribes and bodyguards, as well as messengers, are to be arranged in a secluded dwelling in the mountain city of Xiaoyu. ”......

"It's time to arrive, right?"

Xiao Shizhu wiped his face and asked Qinglan who was behind him.

When the cloudy light poured in through the wooden window, and the morning light spread all over the shrine, the centipede beads and luminous beads in them dimmed and no longer emitted soft light.

The slight chill of the spring morning is dispelled by the warmth that fills the fire-colored carpet woven from the long hair of fire rats on the ground. The whole shrine is not cold, nor is it stuffy, and the temperature is moderate.

"Who? where?" Qing Lan was stunned by Xiao Shizhu's brainless words.

"Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng, those two ghost envoys sent by the Northern Yin Dynasty. Xiao Shizhu, who wiped the clear droplets of water on his face, threw the towel in his hand to Qinglan beside him: "It should have arrived at Shuoyue Island, right?"

"I just received a report, I originally wanted to wait until you finished your breakfast before reporting it. Qing Lan finally knew what Xiao Shizhu was asking, so she nodded and said, "Half an hour ago, the ghost envoy of the Northern Yin Dynasty landed in the northern port of Shuoyue Island. ”。

The ghost mother, who was dressing up in the inner room, walked out with Chen Ruo at this time, and after hearing Qinglan's reply, she gave an order: "Contact Yingzhao, let him not rush to peace talks, he can delay it for a day or two." ”。

The ghost mother knew the way of Wei Zheng and Lu and was eager to negotiate, and the same was true of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. But last night, she talked about it with her husband Xiao Shizhu, and they both felt that it was better to delay than rush now.

The more anxious you are to negotiate peace, the more likely you are to be taken advantage of by your opponents.

Only by seeking stability can we strive for more interests in peace talks.

"Well, I can't talk about it today anyway. It's just a matter of meeting first, and there is no need to rush to negotiate in the future, so you can let Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng play on the island for a few days first. Xiao Shizhu took over and added to Qinglan: "Let's just say that my country will do its best to be a landlord." ”。

While Qinglan remembered it in her heart, she said to Xiao Shizhu: "There is another matter, which was passed back by Lord Weng from the side of Xiaofeng County. Lord Weng reported that the second leader of the gang of reselling minerals seemed to be about to collapse. He has been biting to death and not opening his mouth, and last night he proposed to see his family, and the lord asked the lord and ** for this, please decide. ”。

Xiao Shizhu was silent, and after pacing back and forth in the main hall of the shrine a few times, he slowly spoke, and said slowly: "Well, you can meet once, just meet in the dungeon, don't take the suspect out." ”。

"No. Qing Lan answered, and was about to give an order when Xiao Shizhu stopped him again.

"Tell Lord Weng that if you ask about Lu Wu's bribery, don't record it if you don't pretend not to know. After Xiao Shizhu thought about it again, he said thoughtfully: "In addition, let Julong bring the map and plan to come over for dinner together." ”。

"Yes. Qinglan answered again and turned to leave.

Before Qinglan left, the ghost mother whispered to Chen Ruo beside her, "Go and prepare some hot milk." ”。

"No. Chen Ruo also responded, and came out of the gods.

Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother sat down on the two thrones in the depths of the main hall respectively, and opened Chen Ruo, and the ghost mother suddenly showed a mysterious smile to her husband Xiao Shizhu, and asked: "Lu Wu's corruption is very secret, all this seems to be his prudence, but in fact, you deliberately arranged it." ”。

Xiao Shizhu was not surprised when he heard this, and was very calm.

He didn't admit or deny it, he just kept silent and was silent for a long time.

"Fishing law enforcement, I learned it from the human world. After a while, Xiao Shizhu smiled and said quite proudly: "My brother is a high-ranking and powerful official, and he is a heavenly official of our country, so it is inevitable that someone will climb his power." In that case, why should he be too high-minded?".

After saying that, after Xiao Shizhu stretched his waist, a trace of loss flashed on his face: "It's a pity that this gang of reselling minerals has not looked for Lu Wu." Otherwise, this matter would not be so troublesome. ”。

His answers did not surprise the ghost mother. From her and Chachasi, they secretly learned some clues about Lu Wu's bribery, and secretly reported to Xiao Shizhu, but Xiao Shizhu didn't mention it to outsiders much, and kept turning a deaf ear, and used Lu Wu's lack of money as an excuse, and never scolded Lu Wu, and the ghost mother suspected that Lu Wu was not really corrupt.

Everything Lu Wu did was secretly taught by Xiao Shizhu. He is Xiao Shizhu's barb with bait hanging on it.

The ghost mother didn't ask any more questions, and sat on the throne with Xiao Shizhu, waiting for their breakfast and Julong.

Soon, Qing Lan took a few palace people to move a disassembled eight-legged round table in and assembled it in the open space in front of Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother.

Then came Julong, holding a rolled-up map and some folded paperwork in his arms.

"My lord, **. Julong bent down slightly and bowed his head, and bowed to Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother.

"Sit. Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother stood up together, walked side by side to the round table and sat down.

Julong was also on the chair that Qinglan had prepared for him, and coiled up his waist and snake's tail. After the palace people left with Qinglan, Julong put down the things in his arms and unfolded the map.

It was a map of Dongyingzhou, but a few places had been marked on the map with red ink.

Xiao Shizhu glanced at these conspicuous markings, and after seeing that they were all places in the Linjiang Mountain Range, he raised his eyes and fell on Julong's face.

Dongyingzhou is the same as Dongyizhou, because of the abundant rain, there are many rivers and lakes in the continent. Linjiang mountain range, naturally there are also a lot.

It's just a little less majestic and tall, and there are not too many mountains that stretch for hundreds of miles, and there are many single mountains and peaks, but they also look beautiful and exquisite.

Even Julong marked a few mountain ranges on the map that are not high, beautiful and small, and they are all independent peaks, stretching for only a dozen or even a few miles.

"My lord, the fortress strategy you proposed is okay. In the future, it can also be used as a pass to defend Dongyingzhou. After pressing the four corners of the map, Ju Long handed over the written plan documents to Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother respectively: "Therefore, the locations I chose are all dangerous places, sitting on natural dangers, and can choke the throat of all parts of the continent. ”。

When he spoke, Xiao Shizhu did not open the Chinese book in his hand, but glanced at several mountains on the map.

They were all on the edge of the land of Dongying Continent that was now occupied by the Nine Shadows Kingdom. The rivers that are in the vicinity are all between the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom and the enemy army.

There are even a few places, just south and southwest of the Qingqiu Fox Country, which are completely in line with Xiao Shizhu's preparation requirements to deal with the Qingqiu Fox Country.

And although these mountains are not tall, judging from the annotations next to them, there are many cliffs and steep slopes on the mountainside, so that they are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they can just build passes and garrison formations.

"Halfway down the mountainside and near the foot of the mountain, a moat can be built to form a position. Stones were collected on the spot and polished into bricks to cover the trench so that heavy rains would not muddy the trench. Julong pointed his finger at the basic marking points on the map, and then said solemnly: "The trenches are connected to each other, forming a spider web, and they become communication trenches and connected positions. In this way, artillery and sergeants can also be moved in the trench during heavy rains, and they can support any point at any time. ”。

At the end, Julong, who paused, added: "First easy and then difficult, this is the first step." ”
