Wang Yan held Zhou Shan and Dong Yun's hands tightly, and the three of them stopped on the bank of the river, looking at the other side.

The river that stretched in front of them was nearly a hundred meters wide, and it was the Ruyue River that flowed between Qingyue City and Blue Moon City. Ru is the same as milk, and this river nourishes all things in the kingdom of July with its water, just like a kind mother feeding her beloved child with her sweet milk.

The official road from Blue Moon City to Blue Moon City is connected by a huge stone bridge that crosses the entire river. The stone bridge was built since the founding of the July Kingdom, and it has survived the erosion of wind and rain for hundreds of years, but it is still as strong as ever.

Only now, this stone bridge, which carries the heavy responsibility of the people's exchanges, is unrecognizable, and only a few thick piers are soaked in the turbulent river, telling the glory of the past.

The stone bridge that was gone blocked Wang Yan, Zhou Shan, and Dong Yun's way to Qingyue City, and also blocked their wishes.

"How did it come to be? Who the hell demolished the bridge?" Dong Yunxing's eyes widened, and she shouted angrily, while scolding the person who destroyed the stone bridge in her heart.

"Wang Yan, the bridge is gone, how should we cross it?" Although Zhou Shan did not show anger, he was also very anxious.

"There are only six bridge piers on the entire river surface that can be settled, if the light work is good enough, you might as well give it a try, but, can you jump that far?" Wang Yan looked at the bridge piers washed by the river and asked Zhou Shan and Dong Yun. Because the distance between the adjacent bridge piers is more than ten meters away, it is greatly beyond the limit of people's light work. What's more, there is the rushing river under your feet, and the sound of 'whooshing' water. It is enough to affect everyone's mood, and in this case, their ability to perform is greatly reduced.

"I'm afraid not, the piers are too far apart, and I don't have such a good light skill. With visual inspection, Zhou Shan knew that he was not capable.

"If you think of another way, I won't be able to get by. Dong Yun didn't want to take risks, after all, the river was ruthless, and once she fell into the water, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to find the corpse. Let's reconsider other safer ways to cross the river.

"Why don't we find a tree that's tall enough. Put it between the bridge piers, step on the big trees, one bridge pier, one bridge pier and one bridge pier slowly?" Wang Yan felt that since the light work was unreliable. Then find your own tree to build a bridge. It always works.

"Whimsical! What can only the three of us lift?" Dong Yun stared at Wang Yan in disbelief, there is nothing more ranciful in the world than this method.

"There are no trees around that can meet the requirements. Zhou Shan didn't have a way to refute what Wang Yan said, but looked around. The trees that greeted me were all small trees three or five meters high, and I am afraid that the three trees would not be able to be connected, not to mention that they did not have ropes to bind them.

"Then we'll have to look along the river to see if there are any other bridges or ferries. Wang Yan was also very helpless, because there was a stone bridge here, and the water was turbulent, no one was ferrying around here to carry people across the river.

"But won't that delay too much time?" Dong Yun was still not satisfied.

"Then do you have a better way to make us cross this river safely?" Wang Yan said three methods in a row, but Dong Yun vetoed them, so he had to ask her rhetorically.

"I ...... At this time, it should be you big men who think of a way and ask me what I do. Dong Yun was in the mood to think of a way to cross the river at the moment, and put all the responsibility on Wang Yan in one sentence.

"You don't agree with the method I said, what else can I do?" Wang Yan was very unwilling, Dong Yun was obviously unreasonable like this.

"Alright, don't argue, just do the last way. Zhou Shan stood between Wang Yan and Dong Yun and didn't let them continue to quarrel.

At this time, Wang Yan and the three of them did not notice that an army lurking in the trees and grass was closely watching their every move. Seeing that Wang Yan had been wandering by the river for a long time, and their intention to cross the river was very obvious, dozens of soldiers in this army quietly surrounded them and aimed their bows and crossbows at the three of them to prevent them from escaping.

"Stand still, quickly restrain your hands and arrest you!" The voices of the soldiers covered the sound of running water, and clearly entered the ears of Wang Yan, Zhou Shan, and Dong Yun.

"What should we do? We are surrounded?" Zhou Shan was dumbfounded, is this the so-called disaster not a single line?

"How can there be soldiers here? Dong Yun was excited for a moment, so he held his hand on the sword, ready to break through desperately.

"Don't act rashly, the situation is still uncertain, be prepared to improvise. Wang Yan looked at the arrows and crossbows that flashed with cold light, and he was not sure that he could protect Zhou Shan and Dong Yun in so many random arrows.

"If they are rebels and fall into their hands, how can they escape?" Dong Yun whispered, reminding Wang Yan that now is the best time to escape.

Before Wang Yan could think about how to answer Dong Yun's question, the next words of the soldiers who surrounded them immediately dispelled their doubts.

"At this time, I still want to cross the river, looking at your sneaky appearance, you must be a spy sent by the rebels. Explain clearly to the city lord with us, dare to try to escape, and there will be no mercy!" one of the soldiers warned loudly, and motioned for the others to come forward and arrest Wang Yan and the three.

"It's good if it's not a rebel, we'll explain it. Wang Yan put his mind at ease and no longer prepared to resist. The soldiers were allowed to seize their swords and tie them up.

Zhou Shan and Dong Yun also enjoyed the same treatment as Wang Yan, and were pushed and shoved into the trees and grass by the soldiers together.

"There's an army hiding here. Dong Yun exclaimed in surprise, not expecting that there were countless soldiers hiding in the trees and grass.

"Shut up!" the soldier who escorted them immediately warned.

In this way, no one made any more sounds, and under the guidance of the soldiers, after twisting and turning, they came to a small tent.

"Report to the lord of the city, his subordinates caught three spies who wanted to cross the river by the river, and waited for the lord's fate. The soldier stood outside the tent and raised his voice in a loud voice.

"Bring it in. After the sound came from inside the tent, Wang Yan, Zhou Shan, and Dong Yun were pushed into the tent.

"Tell me why you are going to be a spy, help the rebels, and kill our people?" a middle-aged man in the tent turned his back to Wang Yan and the others. He was discussing the map with an officer in armor, not even looking at them, just asking casually.

"We are not spies!" Wang Yanzhi said that there could not be the slightest ambiguity on this issue, otherwise there would be no way to get out.

"Isn't it a spy?" the middle-aged man's hand pointing to the map paused, and then with a puzzled gaze, he turned around and carefully looked at a man and two women who were tied up all over his body.

"Yes, we're not spies. Zhou Shan and Dong Yun also hurriedly said that they must dispel this middle-aged man's preconceived ideas in order to make things develop in a good way.

The middle-aged man didn't say anything to Zhou Shan and Dong Yun. React. Instead, he stared at Wang Yan. After looking up and down several times, he stopped his gaze on Wang Yan's face before he spoke: "I see that you are a little familiar." ”

"I feel the same way, the appearance of the Lord is the same as when I controlled the frightened horse in Qingyue City. One of the two men who narrowly collided was very similar. Wang Yan remembers that he was just a quick glance at that time. But the unfazed appearance of the two people still remained clearly in his mind.

"You're the one on the horse. No wonder I see a sense of déjà vu in you. The middle-aged man suddenly nodded as if he understood, expressing his approval of what Wang Yan said.

"So you know each other, so let us go. It's uncomfortable to tie it up like this. Dong Yun immediately made a request. She felt that since Wang Yan and the middle-aged man knew each other, everything would be easy.

"You are a spy caught by a soldier, and the relationship alone cannot dispel such suspicions, unless you come up with reliable evidence to prove your innocence, your identity is still a spy. "The middle-aged man didn't mean to let them go just because he had seen Wang Yan.

"Okay. Wang Yan also understood the reason why the middle-aged man was worried, so after controlling the frightened horse, how to send the princess back to the palace, and how to treat the poor with the help of Zhou Shan and Dong Yun, and then to the road and the refugees, learned the news of the rebel attack, and prepared to go to Huangyue City to visit his family.

"You are the king who heals the poor for free, disrespectful, disrespectful. Come on, loosen the tie quickly. After listening to Wang Yan's words, the middle-aged man immediately looked apologetic and hurriedly gave an order.

"My lord, do you know what we do?" Now it was Wang Yan's turn to wonder, he had only been sick for the poor for a few days, how could it reach the ears of this adult?

"Ha Luha, the people around me have already spread it, how can I not know the Dao, as the city lord of Qingyue City, it is my duty to care for the people and care for the people of the city. The middle-aged man solved Wang Yan's doubts.

"My lord is the city lord of Qingyue City?" Wang Yan, Zhou Shan, Dong Yun, and the three of them expressed doubts at the same time, shouldn't the city lord of Qingyue City lead the army to resist the attack of the rebels in Qingyue City.

"Let me introduce you, I am Yue Liangqi, the city lord of Qingyue City, and this is Shang Hong, the deputy general of Qingyue City. "The lord of Qingyue City, Yue Liangqi, showed his amiable side and introduced himself and the general who was studying the map with him to Wang Yan and them.

"What's going on? How could the Lord lead the army here?" Wang Yan saluted to the Blue Moon City City Lord Yue Liangqi and the deputy general Shang Hong, eager to understand the current situation.

"It's hard to put into words. Yue Liangqi, the city lord of Qingyue City, frowned again: "The Scorching Sun Kingdom is attacking, and I have received the emperor's decree to send the army defending the city to the border to support, leaving only three thousand people to maintain order in the city." No one expected that Yue Pingfeng, the city lord of Green Moon City, would take advantage of this time to rebel and attack on a large scale under the lie of 'Qing Jun's side and kill the ministers'. When I came to my Qingyue City, I saw through the treacherous plan, he was annoyed and angry, and the command post led more than 30,000 well-equipped troops to attack, I led the only remaining 3,000 soldiers to resist to the death, but to no avail, I could only cover the rapid evacuation of the city's people, when we came to the Ruyue River, we thought of a way to tear down the bridge to block the enemy, so that at least we could delay the speed of the rebel attack. After we rest here, let's plan to return to Blue Moon City, where we can resist the rebels again. ”

"How sure is the army of Blue Moon City, how sure are you that you can defeat the rebels there?" Zhou Shan heard the worry in the words of Yue Liangqi, the city lord of Blue Moon City, and wanted to ask for an understanding.

"How can there be any army, the army of Blue Moon City has also gone to the border, but Blue Moon City also has a few thousand people left to maintain order, so I want to join forces and resist together, and the effect is not comparable to the resistance of less than three thousand of us. "The city lord of Qingyue City, Yue Liangqi, said his plan.

"If you can't resist that, there is no natural danger from here to the palace, which is equivalent to giving the palace to the rebels, how can the emperor's safety be guaranteed. My lord, we might as well rely on the Ruyue River in front of us to fight the rebels, so that there is still hope for victory. "Wang Yan treated the poor during this time, and inadvertently learned about the terrain here, so he disagreed with the opinion of Yue Liangqi, the city lord of Qingyue City.

"It's not easy to say, you don't see how fierce the rebels are, how can this river stop the rebels' footsteps, once they cross the river, we are tantamount to fat to the rebels' mouths. "The city lord of Qingyue City, Yueliang Qizhi, said that Wang Yan had never seen the horror of the rebels, so he explained it to him.

"Look here, my lord. Wang Yan walked to the map, pointed to the curve that represented the Ruyue River, and said: "As far as I know, before this bend in the upper reaches of the Ruyue River, the water flow is still gentle, and after that, the river becomes turbulent, because the terrain is lower and the drop becomes larger. The bend of the river is only five miles away, and the adults can send a team of soldiers there to block the river. When more than half of the rebels enter the river, we can break the embankment and release the water, destroying most of the rebels in one fell swoop and damaging their spirit....... "Wang Yan devised a feasible plan based on his knowledge that he had just learned about the Dao.

"Great, that's it!" Before Wang Yan could finish his strategy, Yue Liangqi, the city lord of Qingyue City, agreed to destroy the rebels in this way. (To be continued......)
