Walking out of the royal ancestral hall, a figure appeared behind Xiao Yuande.
The figure was one step away from Xiao Yuande to show respect.
"I have sent people to check the two mountain cities in Cangzhou and Nanzhou. Xiang Ji's people have dealt with them very cleanly and there are no unnecessary traces."
Xiao Yuande said: "Is Long Wuwei ready?"
The figure responded: "Serve your Majesty at any time."
Xiao Yuande muttered: "Let's get started. In the battle of Cangzhou, Zhenyuan Marquis cannot stop Xiang Ji. We must prepare early to deal with Xiang Ji's roaring tiger army."
"What I'm more worried about is the Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry under Xiang Ji, as well as those people in the world."
"There is a military turmoil in Nanzhou. If another accident occurs in other state capitals, Da Chu's military strength will be even more stretched."
"Twenty years ago, the Beidou Camp guarded the northern border, and the sects in the Hundred Thousand Mountains did not dare to move. Now that the Beidou Camp is gone, who can patrol the world on my behalf?"
Xiao Yuande stopped, his straight spine bent a lot in the dim light.
His road to the throne was full of bloody storms, and his situation now is much better than it was twenty years ago.
...
In the early morning, there was fog on the river, and there were no fingers behind me, making it difficult to tell the direction. The river was so fast that even the most experienced boatmen did not dare to ferry people across the foggy river.
The woman in red shirt stands on the bank of the river, her red shirt covered in mist, so poetic and picturesque that it makes people unable to take their eyes away.
Everything in General Xiang Ji was given to the woman in red shirt.
There is no doubt that in the past ten years, among Yan Yun's eighteen riders, the red-shirted woman's ingenious strategies have also made Xiang Ji many military exploits.
Right now, what the woman in red shirt wants is the heavy fog.
This is the right time and place that the girl in red shirt wants, and the rest of the people's harmony depends on the hundreds of thousands of roaring tiger troops behind the girl in red shirt.
Crossing the river in heavy fog is tantamount to courting death.
Dozens of people walked out behind the woman in red shirt. These people wore black fish skin armor, with daggers on their waists, and their arms were powerful and extremely powerful.
Over the past ten years, Xiang Ji secretly trained these people and called them "water dragons".
Dozens of people practice underwater kung fu in the rapids deep in the Qianjiang River every day. Even if they don't use their true energy, it is not a problem to lurk in the water for a day.
It is no problem to cross the river by punting in the fog.
"Cross the river!"
Following the command from the red-shirted woman, dozens of bamboo rafts carrying Tiger Roar Army soldiers crossed the Canglan River.
The heavy fog on the river is a dangerous obstacle, making it difficult to see the direction.
Again, this is cover, blocking the enemy's view.
The Canglan River is a natural danger. Fighting along the river is just a blind defense. Even if it faces the Tiger Roar Army, the Cangzhou Army can delay for a long time.
Therefore, a cunning plan is needed to capture Cangzhou at the minimum cost.
Even if there was such a heavy fog today, the red-shirted woman would have said that as long as these dozens of water dragons led the soldiers of the Tiger Roaring Army across the river, the 100,000 Tiger Roaring Army behind them would swarm up and defeat the Cangzhou Army.
The woman in red shirt looked at the vast white fog, determined to win.
Today's battle is the first achievement for the Lord and must be won.
Mr. Third watched the dragon disappear into the white mist and said, "Li Qingru is the brains behind General Big Dipper. He is by no means an easy person. Don't underestimate him."
The woman in the red shirt raised her head slightly and said disdainfully: "The Beidou Camp was destroyed in the hands of the Lord. Li Qingru is just a clown."
"Don't forget that more than ten years ago, that Li Qingru was hiding in Tibet with a baby in great distress!"
The smile of the woman in red shirt was full of pride.
The original chase was arranged by the woman in red. There were several dangers, and several times Li Qingru and the infant Yu Zhi were about to die in the chase.
Seeing Li Qingru, who was hailed as an unparalleled national warrior and Wenquxing of the Beidou Camp, running away like a wild dog, the woman in red shirt only felt that he was not worthy of his reputation.
And it is easy to get carried away when you are proud.
Mr. Third sneered mercilessly: "So what if you are in such a bad situation? Li Qingru, who had no cards, still survived alone, even to this day. You still failed to kill Li Qingru."
The expression of the red-shirted goddess was extremely gloomy.
It has to be said that the pursuits that failed again and again made the red shirt girl lose her confidence. She was getting more and more crazy at that time, and Li Qingru cleverly escaped again and again.
"This time, I won't let Li Qingru escape again!" the woman in red shirt said viciously.
Mr. Third sneered. "I hope so."
The white mist on the river swallowed up the bamboo raft and swallowed up the figures of the dragons entering the water and the soldiers of the Tiger Roaring Army.
There were thousands of Tiger Roar Army soldiers on dozens of bamboo rafts. By the time the Cangzhou Army reacted, these Tiger Roar Army soldiers had already boarded the other side.
The woman in red has a clever plan.
Who would have thought that there were dozens of boating experts in the Prince of Chu's palace?
...
On the other side, Fang Nanhu also looked at the vast fog.
Even the strong man who opened the monument could not see through the white mist.
Behind Fang Nanhu stood tens of thousands of Cangzhou troops, with fire crossbows in their hands, ready to go.
From the beginning of the fog, the officers and soldiers of the Cangzhou Army followed Fang Nanhu's order to guard the river bank.
The amount of kerosene and bows and crossbows were several times that of usual.
This arrangement made it difficult for the generals in Cangzhou to understand, because no one dared to sail across the river under such white fog.
The ferrymen who had lived near the Canglan River for decades did not dare to sail in the thick fog.
A general said: "Master Marquis, what are we doing? In this heavy fog, even if the other party wants to cross the river, they will lose their way and hit the reef in the river."
Fang Nanhu still stared at the vast fog without saying a word.
Last night, when he opened Li Qingru's note, there were only two sentences written on it - in the early morning, fog began to rise on the river. The enemy troops crossed the river and were burned by fire.
At first, Fang Nanhu didn't believe it, but when he saw the heavy fog gradually rising, he had to believe it even if he didn't believe it.
...
Elsewhere on the river bank, Li Qingru and Li Haomiao stood side by side, waiting for the fire to start.
"Back then, the red-shirted woman chased me and Yu Zhi, and there were dangerous dangers. Several times, it was only a slight difference, and Yu Zhi and I were killed in the hands of those killers."
Thinking of the past days of wandering and hiding, Li Qingru was still afraid.
"That woman wouldn't have thought that we knew about the existence of these water dragons." Li Qingru said, "Fortunately, these people were not touched, so we were able to trap the woman in red today."
Li Haomiao was speechless and didn't know what to say.
He had been in Nanzhou Prefecture for many years, and it was he who discovered the existence of these water dragons.
Now Li Haomiao knew why Li Qingru kept these water dragons.
I'm afraid that when Li Qingru knew about these drowned dragons, she had already become the woman she is today.
"Sister, have you thought of this a long time ago?" Li Haomiao asked.
Li Qingru said calmly: "Xiang Ji is an ambitious man. Knowing about secretly training these water dragons, it is not difficult to deduce this."
"Killing these water dragons will only kill some people. The most important thing is to reduce the combat power of the Tiger Roar Army."
Li Haomiao trembled, deeply feeling the terror of the woman in front of him.
"Sister, when I told you this, about ten years ago, you really dared to think about it."
Li Qingru said: "I had forgotten it originally. I remembered it when I saw the Canglan River."
Li Qingru paused and then said to Li Haomiao: "Back then, when the eldest brother entered Kyoto, all Beidou Camp under his command was destroyed overnight. I have always felt that this matter was strange. But after so many years of investigation, the truth has not been found."
"The eldest brother's realm is already at the ninth level of Kaibei. He also has Tianshu Xing and Yuhengxing under his command. Both of them are strong men at the eighth level of Kaibei, plus hundreds of soldiers from Beidou Camp. These people were completely wiped out. No one escaped from Kyoto."
"Xiang Yu is the culprit, but what about Xiao Yuande? What role did he play in it?"
Li Haomiao looked heavy and nodded slowly: "I understand."
The two brothers and sisters have endured for decades for the sake of the souls who died in Beidou Camp and to wash away the grievances of Beidou Camp.
And the culprit Xiang Ji has surfaced. What is hidden behind that conspiracy?
"After this battle is over, I will return to Kyoto." Li Qingru had already planned everything in his mind. "Yuhengxing Li Shi'an is Li Xiuyuan's son. I'm afraid Li Xiuyuan still doesn't know about Li Shi'an's past."
Li Haomiao nodded, thinking of Yu Zhi and Li Wantong.
By chance, the engagement between the two happened precisely because of the friendship between Yu Shanhe and Li Shian.
Back then, Jiang Xiyue and Li Shian's wife were pregnant at the same time, which sealed the fate of Yu Zhi and Li Wantong.
I thought that by breaking off the engagement, Yu Zhi had severed the fate promised by his parents.
There is a certain number somewhere.
Yu Zhi still met Li Wantong and was willing to give everything for him.
"Do you want to tell Yu Zhi about this?" Li Haomiao asked.
Li Qingru thought for a moment and said, "Tell him. It's time for him to know everything."
"By the way, Wan Tong is not with Yu Zhi. Where did he go?"
Li Haomiao smiled bitterly and said: "She entered Gutian Tower..."
...
On the Canglan River, the water dragon jumps into the river, like a dragon in the water, shuttling in the rushing water.
The fish skin armor on their bodies allows them to reduce the impact of water flow.
With the help of the water dragon, the bamboo raft avoided the reefs at the bottom of the river and slowly headed towards the other side.
For fish in the water, no matter how heavy the fog is, it will not affect their ability to distinguish directions.
The water dragon plays exactly this role.
Arriving in the middle of the river, the soldiers of the Tiger Roaring Army were ready to charge.
Behind them are the 100,000 soldiers of the Tiger Roar Army.
But at this moment, a flying arrow suddenly shot out of the invisible fog.
Plop.
A soldier of the Tiger Roaring Army was hit by an arrow in the chest and fell into the river.
The blood dyed the river red and was quickly washed away by the river, as if nothing had happened.
However, fear spreads like a plague in the hearts of the people.
Why are there arrows?
Has it been discovered?
Impossible, there is heavy fog on the river and they can’t see us!
"Unexpected, everyone calm down, calm down."
The voice was kept very low, lest it disturb the mist on the river.
But the next moment, countless firelights flashed in the white mist in front of him, and stars flew towards him like flowing fire.
Whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, half of the soldiers of the Tiger Roaring Army were lost and fell into the river and became food for the fish.
"Quick, get into the water."
"You've been discovered, jump into the river!"
Thump thump.
All the surviving officers and soldiers of the Tiger Roar Army jumped into the water, hid under the bamboo rafts, and used the bamboo rafts to block the arrows.
There was no cover on the river, so they were living targets with only one way to die.
But what was disappointing was that the flying arrow shot into the Canglan River with flames burning. The flames were not extinguished, but instead ignited a wave of flames.
A burst of fire broke out on the river, which stained the soldiers under the water and was difficult to extinguish.
"It's kerosene!"
"There's kerosene on the arrow!"
The voice of despair sounded in the heavy fog, and was masked by the sound of the waves of the Canglan River.
In just half a moment, a sea of fire ignited on the river in the white mist.
The flames surged into the sky and the river burned.
Although no screams could be heard, the raging fire screamed for the soldiers struggling in the water.
Naturally, the woman in red shirt also saw all this.
After being shocked, the anger in the red-shirted woman's heart was more blazing than the flames on the river!
She knew that today's plan had been burned by this fire.
The price is thousands of Tiger Roar Army soldiers!
