A man carrying a lantern tapped the hammer in his hand, and came from the east side of the shed along the street where the wind was howling, and shouted loudly: "The third watch is safe!" and went west.

When the military attache finished speaking, he had already taken out a piece of the Taishou Mansion's dispatch token from his arms, clenched it in his hand and handed it to Xuanshui.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Shui, who stood up, carefully looked at the token in the other party's hand for a moment by the slight light emitted by the bean-sized flame in the lampstand on the table, and after seeing that it was not a forgery, his face suddenly frowned. At the same time, he picked up the helmet on the table and buckled it on his head.

Since the soldiers who sent the message also prepared the Flying Beast Soul for him, it means that the thrush needs him to fly to the county capital before dawn, and it must not be a trivial matter to be in such a hurry.

The military attache at the head did not speak, but first looked left and right, and after seeing the boss and Xiao Er in the shed looking at them curiously, he leaned forward a few points slightly, and only lowered his voice a little after getting close to Xuanshui, and said quickly: "This is a military secret, let's talk about it on the road." ”。

Seeing that the solemn-faced military attache had a little more eagerness in his eyes when he spoke, it seemed that the matter was indeed urgent, Xuanshui nodded his head without hesitation, and hurriedly took out a silver coin from under the leather bracer, put it on the table at hand, and said to Lao Yao: "I will leave the money here for you, the hot soup noodles will be waiting for me to eat on my next vacation, and the wine will be kept for me." ”。

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already walked out of the shed with the sergeant, and strode towards the city defense camp without looking back......

Yunmengzhou on the opposite side of the Howling Wind Plain.

On the northern border, a hundred-foot cliff rises from the shore. Wave after wave of blue waves, after the surge, the huge waves rushed to the edge of the cliff and set off high, roaring and lapping against the smooth cliff on its sea surface, splashing the sky, leaving a curtain of water on the cliff.

A majestic Miao village called Baihuan is built on the top of this high cliff, overlooking the blue waves and turbulent sea under the cliff.

Among the houses in the village, whose walls are decorated with animal bones, you can see giant trees entwined with wild vines everywhere, dancing and swaying the branches and those wild vines in the gentle breeze.

Butterflies flutter in the sky and fly between the houses and giant trees, and many of them perch on wild vines that hang from the giant trees, and their whiskers hang upside down from the top of the vine to form a long string that hangs down to the tail of the vine. In the light of the cloudy day, the colors are radiant, and the magnificence is magnificent.

Among the butterflies that inhabit the Miao Village, there are many huge butterflies. As soon as its wings are spread, it is more than one zhang wide, and its fat body, which is about half a zhang long, is actually about 80 catties; when it spreads its wings and flies high, it is enough to cover the sky and the sun. The wings can be sprinkled with butterfly powder in a flash, and at the same time, they can bring a gust of colorful wind.

This huge and fleshy butterfly is called the Hundred Illusion Butterfly, which is a giant insect unique to Yunmengzhou, and the patterns on its wings are varied, hence the name Hundred Illusions, but it is more beautiful and colorful than ordinary butterflies.

But I didn't know that it could still fly with such a heavy body, and the speed of flight was as fast as lightning, and the Miao witches in the Three Miao Ghost Clan who were familiar with insect language were even more capable, and they could actually tame a behemoth-like insect like a hundred phantom butterflies and use them as empty mounts, which was simply incredible.

Since Xiao Shizhu took over Sanmiao, this border Baihuan Miao Village has become lively. The tiger men and hard-handed men in all parts of Yunmengzhou led their heavily armed warriors, Miao Wu, and priests to transport strategic materials by the way.

The slender hulls of the ships made of unsinkable wood were designed for the three seedlings, and it took fifty oarsmen to move, but because of this, the large-winged warships that were flying like boats also appeared one after another on the sea below the cliff to form a ship formation.

And when Emperor Yuanying pretended to be the old leader of Sanmiao, most of the war materials that had been ordered to be stored had arrived here at this time.

The wide hillside to the south of the cliff was bustling with people, and the tents were lined up with military flags to cover the sky, and sergeants who came and went were actively carrying strategic supplies from all over the country.

When Xiao Shizhu came to power, he wrote a colorful leaflet about the deception of Emperor Xudu, and quickly distributed it to all parts of Yunmengzhou, which aroused the anger of the three Miao ghosts, and told them that if they wanted to give the old leader, they would assemble here according to the order, and he would lead them to take revenge.

Therefore, in just ten days, 70,000 troops and more than 20,000 naval warships have been quickly assembled around the Hundred Illusion Miao Village, which is extremely fast.

If there is a military history of the underworld, this rapid transfer of troops can definitely be included in it.

After Xiao Shizhu also dealt with the affairs of Yunmeng Village, after handing over the management of Yunmengzhou to Bo Dongha, Bao Wengli and Shi Ben's younger brother Shi Long, he led Ma Duo Ma Long and Ga Ge, Xiao Si Xiao Poria and them, as well as half of the warriors and Miao Wu in Yunmeng Village, and rushed to Baiyu Miao Village.

After walking day and night for thirteen days, he finally arrived at the south of the Hundred Illusion Miao Village; when he went to the bottom of the slope, he raised his eyes and saw the bearskin tents of the three seedlings all over the slope, and the three seedling warriors wearing leather armor and full armor, Xiao Shizhu nodded with satisfaction.

"Brother Ga, go and give the order quickly, all the troops gathered here according to my order immediately cancel the rest and speed up the speed of carrying supplies onto the ship. Xiao Shizhu raised his head and glanced at the cloudy sun hanging in the middle of the sky, and said slowly: "After eating in the evening, all the assembled sergeants boarded the ship and set sail. ”。

"No. Brother Ga answered without hesitation, and was about to leave but remembered something, and suddenly stopped and asked, "King, where are we going?"

"Head northwest first, where to go, and I'll tell you when the time comes. Xiao Shizhu jumped down from the back of the rock fire bear under his crotch, and gently waved the horsewhip in his hand for a while, and said leisurely: "All you have to do is obey the order!"

"No!" Brother Ga hurriedly put away his curiosity, and after answering again, he walked quickly towards the uphill not far away.

Xiao Shizhu turned his head to look at the neatly arranged troops behind him, and said to the hemp stacks beside him: "We have also been walking for a morning, so we will not go to Miao Village, let the sergeants rest in place." ”。

"No. Ma Duo had just responded, Xiao Shizhu had already turned his head to look at Xiao Ling, who was still riding on the rock fire bear, and said softly: "Map." ”。

Looking at not far away with great interest, Xiao Fuling, who was stunned by the three Miao Miao witches who were riding a huge hundred illusion butterflies soaring in the blue sky and white clouds, did not pay attention at all, until Xiao Shizhu shouted the third time, he was stunned when he heard the words, and slowly came to his senses;

Xiao Shizhu sat on the ground after taking the map, and couldn't help frowning after spreading the map on his crossed legs.

This is a map drawn by the three seedlings, and the mountains and rivers on it are marked with the ancient characters of the three seedlings, although Xiao Shizhu has been busy learning a few common words in the ancient language of the three seedlings in the past few days, but it is still to no avail. He still only had a rough idea of the map.

After groping around on the map to find the location of the Hundred Illusion Miao Village, he waved behind him: "Ma Long, come and see if this is where we are now." ”。 As he spoke, he pointed to the place on the map that he thought was the Hundred Illusion Miao Village.

"Hmm. Ma Long stepped forward to look at his finger, nodded and said, "Yes." ”。

Xiao Shizhu didn't squeak, but his eyes followed his fingers, and after slowly moving to the northwest, he landed on an isolated island far away from Baihuanmiao Village in the picture.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Shizhu pointed to the isolated island and asked, "Then where is this?

"This is the Dragon Silk Island where the Shark Dragon Silk Palace is located, and it is already the territory of our Nine Shadows Kingdom. Ma Long looked at it and said thoughtfully: "Our big wing warship is extremely fast, it will take about ten days if it is downwind, and it will take up to half a month against the wind. ”。

Xiao Shizhu nodded silently, calculating the distance, he clearly remembered that it was only a matter of a few hours from the Dragon Silk Palace to Shuoyue Island.

In other words, his plan to mobilize the Sanmiao army to support Shuoyue Island will take at least half a month to complete.

Thinking of this, Xiao Shizhu, who was always calm and calm in the past, was a little nervous in his heart, although his face was still as usual. He didn't know how Yingzhao would survive in the past half a month.

Although according to the information received by the accompanying fungus people, those troops of Emperor Xudu did not take advantage of Shuoyue Island, and at this time, they were in a stalemate with the hundreds of thousands of defenders led by Ying Zhao. But there are still a large number of warships, and the strength is still there, and the main force is still there.

But after half a month, whether Yingzhao can still hold up depends on two words. After all, he has less than half the strength of the enemy's army.

After thinking for a while, he felt that it was pointless to think too much, and now he could only trust Yingzhao, he settled down, and after a moment of silence, he said to Ma Long: "The herald must move forward quickly in the starry night, and the soldiers on the ship must help the oarsmen take turns paddling, and strive to reach this Longxuan Island in only ten days." ”。

"No. Ma Long answered, turned over and rode on the rock fire bear he was leading, and rode the beast quickly towards the mountain shore.

The soldiers behind him had already sat down on the ground and rested, and the men had gone around to gather firewood and prepare to cook for the sergeants who had been walking all morning.

Not far away, the hillside was even more lively, and all the assembled soldiers were divided into two, and some went to transfer supplies down the mountain and sent them to the warships at sea.

Some of them have already begun to pack up and put away the tents and other things that have been set up in the woods on the hillside.

"Father. And Xiao Fuling, who saw Xiao Shizhu's words and deeds in his eyes at all, jumped off the rock fire bear, walked behind Xiao Shizhu and stood still, leaned over to Xiao Shizhu's shoulders and hugged the other party's neck, looked at the animal skin map, and said suspiciously: "What are we going to Longxuan Palace for?"

She had always thought that her father's mobilization of troops was to support Shuoyue Island, and at this time, she was muttering in her heart, "Could it be that I guessed wrong?"

"We're just passing through. Xiao Shizhu's eyes were still staring at the map in his hand, and he slowly replied: "Or guess where I really plan to go?"

His words easily aroused his daughter's competitiveness.

Xiao Fuling pursed her lips, and after snorting, her eyes flickered and glanced at the vicinity of Longxuan Island on the map.

Although she couldn't read the ancient text of Sanmiao, let alone know where it was on the map. But then he turned his head and looked at the bulging package that Xiao Si was holding in his hand not far away, and immediately recalled the story that his father told him a few days ago, and after the three words "Zhang Mazi" appeared in his mind, he smiled lightly in his father's ear, and whispered in an affirmative tone in his father's ear: "Your goal is still Shuoyue Island." ”。
