Chapter 710: Fifty Miles
"Father, there is no signal in the city until now. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xiao Chengji came to Xiao Quan's side and whispered.
"Got it!" Xiao Quan replied with a flat face.
The team of assassins he sent out should have entered the City Lord's Mansion an hour ago, if there was news, it would have already come out at that time, where would it be now, so Xiao Quan had already been mentally prepared in his heart.
"Father, it seems that there are masters guarding this Lin Lixuan. Xiao Chengji said with a hint of unconvincing.
Lin Lixuan is only eighteen years old, two years younger than him, which makes Xiao Chengji, who has known himself as the pride of the sky since he was a child, very uncomfortable, and at the same time, he is also very unconvinced.
Lin Ze was only eighteen years old, he dared to lead an army of 30,000, and when they attacked Stormwind City, he attacked Black Sand City, and in the face of the attack of his father Xiao Quan led an army of 300,000, not only did not show decline, but even severely damaged their army.
And what about him, Xiao Chengji, has not been able to lead an army alone, let alone have a record of shooting, which makes Xiao Chengji extremely hostile to Lin Ze, he really wants to kill Lin Ze now.
"Inheritance, don't look for other reasons, if you always find some other reason to perfunctory yourself and fool yourself when facing the enemy, after defeat, then you will not achieve much in the future.
What will happen to a person who does not even dare to admit the strength of the enemy and who does not even dare to face defeat in the future? A real strong man, even in the face of countless failures, will not be discouraged and will work more hard, only in this way can he finally succeed. ”
Xiao Quan taught this Xiao Chengji, he understood Xiao Chengji's thoughts very well, and when he saw someone younger than him and better than himself, he would feel uncomfortable in his heart, and he would subconsciously want to ignore his failure.
Xiao Chengji will have such an idea, which is a manifestation of weakness, as his father, Xiao Quan has this responsibility and obligation to remind and correct it.
"Father, I understand!" Xiao Chengji nodded and replied, his tone was very sincere.
Xiao Chengji believes in his father's words 100%, and he also understands that wanting to be a real strong person and actively face his own failures is the least thing, and his previous thinking is indeed too narrow.
"Father, what should we do now, this time our assassins can't kill Lin Lixuan, so if you want to assassinate Lin Lixuan in the future, it will be even more difficult. After Lin Lixuan experienced this assassination, the protection around him will definitely be tighter. Xiao Chengji asked with a worried face.
"Alas, we know too little about Lin Lixuan's information!" Xiao Quan sighed.
Lin Ze's information was all reported to Xiao Quan by Lan Ming, there are not many of these materials, the most is Lin Ze's identity information, and the amount of money he has, as for the power around Lin Ze, there is no record, so Xiao Quan doesn't know anything about how much power Lin Ze has around him.
"Father, could it be that the Ninth Young Master of the Hou Mansion's side has such a powerful force?" Xiao Chengji asked with a puzzled expression.
Lin Ze is just a ninth young master of the Hou Ye's Mansion, his status is actually not high, but he is just above average, and a person with such an identity, in the capital of Chu State, not to mention a thousand, one or two hundred is not a problem.
If every person of Lin Ze's identity had such a powerful force around him, then Xiao Chengji's hope for rebuilding the Shahai Kingdom in the future would be completely unrewarded.
"How is this possible!" Xiao Quan replied affirmatively.
"This Lin Lixuan must have a deep background behind him, his identity is definitely not just the Ninth Young Master of the Hou Mansion, there must be a powerful sect behind him to support him, otherwise, the strength around Lin Lixuan will not be so strong. ”
"Father, since Lin Lixuan has a powerful sect around him supporting him, then do we still want to attack Lin Lixuan?" Xiao Chengji had a hint of retreat in his heart, he knew very well in his heart that the sect was powerful.
Don't look at his father who has advanced to the innate stage now and has an army of 300,000, in fact, this strength is not comparable to the sect at all, and the strength of the sect can directly crush Xiao Quan.
Not to mention the others, just the masters of the innate stage, those sects with a certain strength, which one will be less than ten.
At that time, as long as the sect sends out ordinary innate stage masters, Xiao Quan will directly blow the lamp and pull out the wax here.
"Inheritance, you can rest assured that the sect will not be involved in such mundane matters. One is that there are too many things in mundane affairs, and if a sect is often entangled in mundane things, then this sect will not have much time to develop. If it goes on like this, it won't be long before this sect will fall.
Second, the royal families of those countries will not allow the sect to meddle in mundane affairs. Once the sect intervenes in mundane affairs, royal families such as the Chu State are the most alarmed, because, most likely, those countries will be subverted because of this. Therefore, once it is discovered that the sects are meddling in mundane affairs, those royal families will strike at the first time and at all their might.
Besides, how can there be an army of more than 200,000 in the hands of my father, and if the sect really wants to make a move, it will definitely not be able to annihilate me without paying a huge price, which is completely worth the loss for those generals.
Inheritance, these things are all open secrets, so you don't have to worry about the attack of the sect behind him after we eliminate Lin Lixuan. ”
Xiao Quan comforted his son, Xiao Quan was afraid of the strength of the sect, but he would not be afraid to attack Lin Ze, these unwritten unspoken rules would protect Xiao Quan from the threat of the sect.
"So that's the case, father, I know!" Xiao Chengji's face suddenly realized, he couldn't imagine that there were still these unspoken rules hidden here.
"However, inheritance, we really have to make plans as soon as possible now, the army of Stormwind may arrive soon, and when the time comes, if we don't evacuate before the army of Stormwind City arrives here, then we will face a two-sided attack, in this case........" Xiao Quan's face was full of worry, now there are only two of them in the tent of the Chinese army, so there are some things that need to be hidden.
"Father, what should we do then?" Xiao Chengji was a little panicked in his heart, if he really wanted to be attacked from both sides, then they would be 100% annihilated.
"In this way, I will inherit you to personally go to the Sentinel Cavalry, send the Sentinel behind us, and expand the warning range to fifty miles, and once you find the army of Stormwind City, report back immediately, understand?"
"Yes, father, I understand!" Xiao Chengji replied solemnly, he understood that this matter was a matter of life and death for them, so he didn't dare to be careless at all.
"Go ahead, do it!"
"Yes, father, I'll do it!"
.......................................
Black Rock Beach, twenty miles away from Black Sand City, Xiao Qi is patrolling here with ten of his men, they are the sentry riders of the Black Wind Thieves, protecting the safety behind the army.
"Wow!" a loud falcon sound sounded above them.
Zhang Wu looked up, then stretched out his right hand, and soon, a head-sized falcon stopped on Zhang Wu's right arm.
"Captain, letter!" Zhang Wu took out a piece of paper from the letterbox on the eagle's foot and handed it to Xiao Qi.
"Well, I'll see. Xiao Qi looked at the letterhead.
Soon, he read the contents of the letter.
As soon as he finished reading the contents on the letter, Xiao Qi's brows furrowed.
"Captain, what's wrong? Is it bad news on the letterhead!" The sentry riders on the side were all staring at Xiao Qi's face before, and after seeing him frown, they subconsciously thought that the one on the letterhead was not good news.
"It's really not good news!" Xiao Qi didn't hide it, and directly said that it was not good news.
"Captain, you say, what's the bad news. Zhang Wu asked on the side.
"Let's expand the patrol to fifty miles. Xiao Qi directly told the bad news on the letterhead.
"What, the patrol distance was expanded to fifty miles, this ........ , this ........" Zhang Wu's eyes almost popped out, and the scope of the patrol suddenly expanded to such a large size, Zhang Wu was dumbfounded.
"Captain, do we need to expand our patrol area so much?" asked a sentry on Xiao Qi's right.
"I don't know, that's what it says on the letterhead anyway. Xiao Qi replied helplessly.
"What's the matter up there, we've been tired enough to patrol the twenty-mile range, and now it's extended to fifty miles, and the people above think we're all iron men and won't die!" a sentry grumbled loudly.
It's a sea of sand here, all of which are deserts, and it's very difficult to patrol twenty miles in such a place, but now the scope of the patrol has been directly expanded to one and a half times, reaching fifty miles, and the difficulty is really great.
"Yes, Captain, we can't obey this order. Zhang Wu also said on the side, expanding the scope of the inspection to fifty miles, and he didn't want to accept it.
"Don't accept it?!" Xiao Qi shook his head, and then said very directly: "If you don't accept this order, then everyone will go to the battlefield immediately!"
"Uh........ "As soon as he said that, he went to the battlefield immediately, and everyone kept their mouths shut.
After more than two days of fighting, the number of dead and wounded has reached nearly 80,000, such a large casualty makes Xiao Qi understand that the current battlefield is a meat grinder, and it is absolutely self-defeating to go to the battlefield at this time.
Therefore, as soon as they heard Xiao Qi say that he would go to the battlefield without patrolling, everyone no longer complained, but honestly accepted the order just now.
"Let's go, let's go!" Xiao Qi took the lead and walked towards the outside of the Black Rock Beach, preparing to expand the patrol area to fifty miles.
Although the others were full of reluctance in their hearts, they finally obediently followed Xiao Qi and continued to patrol.
