Xie Zhao sneaked across the Biso Buda River with the Beacon Guard this time, and there was no danger along the way.

Beacon Guard was the best group of scout guards in the Xie family's army that year, and on this trip, Feng Yanxi chose to bring a group of young people who were both good at water and light skills in Beacon Guard.

Because they were afraid that the sound of the water would alarm the Ubunbu scouts along the river, they didn't dare to stay on the water for a long time the whole time.

The group hurriedly dived to the surface to take a breath, and then they had to dive down again for a long time.

Fortunately, everyone in this line is a practitioner, and they all have a little martial arts kung fu around their bodies, so it is natural to hold their breath in the water for a while.

Xie Zhao is also very good at water, and he is like a fish in water. It's just that the water temperature of the Beidi River is really cold, and staying in the water for a long time will inevitably make people feel their knees stiff.

It was difficult to form a group in the water, so they agreed before entering the water to swim west along the river and join the reeds ten miles west of the river.

Xie Zhao swam very fast, and when he came ashore, he had not seen any trace of the other beacon guards.

Ten miles of waterway, non-stop sneaking, is actually a bit reluctant for her body.

When she first came ashore, she silently crawled into a secret bush of lush reeds on the shore, and the next moment she was silently like a stall of aquatic plants that were unconsciously flattened on the ground.

After a while, when the tinnitus in the skull gradually subsided, and the sound of Xie Zhao's heart beating violently finally calmed down from the roar, she finally exhaled softly.

She could feel that the chill in her heart was receding little by little, and her weak and numb hands and feet gradually regained consciousness.

This is thanks to the medicine she took in advance, otherwise the ten miles of waterway of the Bisobuda River, which is like an ice pick, would have almost caused her injury to recur.

Xie Zhao raised the corners of his lips slightly, and there was a slight inexplicable smile on his cheeks.

Even so, so what?

She Xie Zhao will never admit defeat, not before, and even more so now.

At this time, there were already beacon guards arriving one after another, landing one by one.

A stumbling footstep seemed to be approaching Xie Zhao.

Xie Zhao didn't move, just said lazily and softly:

"Uncle Feng, how many of our people haven't come ashore?"

Feng Yanxi said in a low voice: "Master, there are still six left." However, on the way here, the subordinates paid attention to the movements around them, and there was no unusual movement, so they should not have been discovered by the enemy.

Presumably, these rabbit cubs have come ashore in some other shallow beach nearby, and have not yet found our large army. ”

On this trip, in order not to be aware of Xie Zhao's true identity, Feng Yanxi and his colleague Feng Huowei changed their previous title to Xie Zhao and replaced it with "master".

In this way, it is also avoided in case a big guy is called "Chitose" and is used to it, and it is inevitable that the people of the Northern Dynasty will leak out of their feet when they encounter the Hanyong people of the Northern Dynasty on the road.

"Hmm."

Xie Zhao squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, and said:

"Then wait for another stick of incense, if the people haven't arrived yet, leave a code to guide them, let's go first."

Time waits for no one.

Feng Yanxi immediately responded.

"Order!"

Xie Zhao originally supervised the battle in the city every day, and the city wall was full of artillery fire all day long, and she had always been informalized in the army, so that her face was gray and dirty every day.

After soaking in the cold river water for a long time, Xie Zhao's whole person was like a piece of white and beautiful jade washed from the lead, and the exposed skin was white and dazzling.

Like a dusty "treasure", it finally suddenly saw the light of day.

On the rivers and lakes, the beauty of the "Chitose Sword Immortal" has always been as famous as her "Mountains and Rivers, Sun and Moon Sword".

Feng Yanxi looked at his master's thin cheeks with a faint blue glow in the white, and was silent without words.

After nearly a year of getting along, he already knows Chitose's personality very well.

Xie Zhao will never be a person who will take the initiative to show weakness to others, so Feng Yanxi didn't say anything superfluous except for a long sigh.

"Strange."

Xie Zhao seemed to have completely relieved his spirits, and his brain began to function normally.

"Master, what's strange?"

Feng Yanxi asked casually.

Xie Zhao frowned, and said faintly puzzled:

"Actually, since the beginning of the war a few days ago, I have three puzzles.

First, I don't understand that the Hanyong Dynasty has been in a truce with us for nearly ten years, and there has been trade during this period, even if the price cannot be unified, it is a reasonable price.

They had always relied on the cloth, grain, tea, and farming seeds they had purchased from the Tianchen Dynasty, so they didn't want it anymore?

The second is that although they now have the support of powerful firearms, the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty are defending the land and fighting a righteous battle. Although the officers and men of our army are tired, they are like a rainbow and will not retreat.

On the other hand, the cavalry of the Hanyong Yuwen Department did not occupy the terrain advantage in this battle, and it was difficult for the cavalry to give full play to their advantages in the siege battle, so the battle was extremely difficult, and the casualties were also very heavy.

Even if Nanxu and I are forced to balance the rivers and lakes and temples, we can't make random moves at will in the early stage of the war for the time being. But if it really endangers the Tianchen Dynasty at that moment, then Shentai Palace will have a reason to make a brazen move.

So even if they take Langya Pass under the old attack, what practical benefit will there be in the end?

As everyone knows, if the war between the north and the south comes to the day when water and fire are incompatible, the city lord of Xue, who is also the only city of the Immortal Xuan Realm, may not join this unjust war of aggression against other countries. However, as the state religion of the Shentai Palace, and the Nanxu of the Tianchen National Teacher, there is a reason and will definitely intervene. ”

Xie Zhao muttered to himself and continued:

"If you are facing Nanxu, Yu Wenxin, the 'lone wolf sword immortal', is not enough to see. And my third puzzle is"

Feng Yanxi also reacted, and added with a blushing face.

"The third is. Even if he won the battle against our Southern Dynasty, the Yuwen Department would naturally suffer heavy casualties.

The 36th Department of Handyong has always spoken with tribal strength, and if the strength of the Yuwen Department is greatly weakened after this battle, then they will completely lose their position as the first overlord in the 36th Division.

Not to mention that it may be fought for territory by other tribes in the future, I am afraid that the Tuoba royal family, who is far away in the imperial court, is even more happy to hear about it. ”

"Yes." The smile on the corner of Xie Zhao's mouth was slightly sarcastic.

So, what are they trying to do? I don't believe that the Ministry of Culture and Culture is so 'selfless', and is willing to become a pawn in front of the horse and lose soldiers for the expansion of the territory of the imperial court and the domination of the world. ”

"The Meaning of the Master"

Xie Zhao said thoughtfully: "The Yuwen Department has been able to sit firmly in the position of the head of the thirty-six departments of Handyong for thousands of years, and it is naturally not a good person.

They are afraid that they will not be able to make profits early, and some people may promise them heavy profits, so that they will be so reckless about the cost. ”

Is there a handiwork and shadow of those people from the Western Xinjiang in this?

Xie Zhao chuckled.

"But that's not the weirdest thing I just thought."

"The strangest thing about me is that I always thought that all this was the first stroke of the 'Lone Wolf Sword Immortal' Yu Wenxin, but now it seems that this is not the case."
