Jiang Yan unfolded the document in his hand, browsed it quickly, then closed it, pressed his palm hard, and slowly crushed it.
He was silent for a moment and then said in a deep voice:
“I really didn’t expect it to be over there in Lieyun City.
"The situation has actually collapsed."
According to the news coming from the stronghold there, it is said that Ningluzhou’s army has gathered nearly one million, and its soldiers are extremely powerful. Even though Nanyan City has tried its best to send experts to assist, it is still a little overwhelmed by the opponent. mean.
This is not because Nan Yanzhou is inferior to the opponent, but it just lost the upper hand, and the opponent has already made arrangements and preparations. When the two are compared, it is naturally difficult to stop them in the early stage.
Yin Zhong looked around and sighed:
"Now, I'm afraid there will be turmoil here in the city."
This is certain. Lieyun City is the gateway to Nanyanzhou. If it is lost, Nanyan City will directly face Ninglu Bingfeng. The prefectures, counties, and towns between the two can only act as a buffer and cannot really hinder it. each other's footsteps.
In this way, it will be difficult for Zhoucheng to be as stable as before.
After all, it was really possible for Ning Lu's army to attack the city.
Jiang Yan nodded slightly, indicating that he recognized Yin Zhong's judgment, but did not want to delve into this topic. After all, if the sky fell, there would be tall people holding on first.
He rolled his eyes and then asked:
"Tell me about the situation at Lieyun's stronghold."
Yin Zhong breathed out silently, came back to his senses, thought about it, pondered for a few breaths, and said slowly:
"Due to the importance of Lieyun City's stronghold, we have one person from the pattern realm and five characters from the talisman realm stationed there all year round to ensure that the interests there are not infringed."
He paused and then added:
"Now, it is under the control of Vice Chairman Gui Tonghai. This evacuation was also a decision made by Gui Lao."
Before Jiang Yan was promoted, the White Crane Chamber of Commerce had three pattern realm warriors besides Li Jiyang, who was at the Half-Step Realm. However, he had only met Xie Jun.
The reason is naturally that the other two have important responsibilities and are not in Nanyan City.
The deputy sect leader Gui Tonghai was stationed in Lieyun City to maintain the interests of the White Crane Chamber of Commerce in this area.
Jiang Yan nodded and said in a calm voice:
"So, what is Deputy Sect Leader Gui's evacuation plan?"
Yin Zhong closed his eyes: "There are too many important supplies over there. Even if we give up some less important items and bury some items that are difficult to take away quickly in a hidden place, there are still a lot of them, and we can't just do it lightly.
"So, I can only travel as low-key as possible, and at the same time spend a lot of money to invite some people in the world and famous escort agencies to come and help."
Because the wealth was too astonishing, it could not be transferred quickly. Therefore, Gui Tonghai had some realm cultivation and did not dare to be careless. He still asked the headquarters to send someone to deal with it, thinking of reducing the risk.
Jiang Yan understood, so he asked rhetorically:
"In other words, if I just follow the Fu Dao, I can meet the deputy sect leader Gui Tonghai, right?"
Based on Yin Zhong's description, the size of the opponent's team will be very large. At this scale, there is no thought of taking the small path, and the only option is to take the talisman path.
Yin Zhong nodded: "Yes."
Jiang Yan turned his wrist, stood up slowly, and said after careful consideration:
"In this way, I will take a step forward and meet up with the returning deputy sect leader. After you gather all the people accompanying me, you will follow along the talisman path.
"In this case, if there is an accident over there, I can arrive a little early and help."
Yin Zhong thought for a moment and felt that the other party's method was good, so he agreed.
…
…
To the east of Lieyun City, on the Talisman Road, a large convoy was like a long snake, crawling and snaking towards Nanyan City.
Gui Tonghai sat inside a carriage with ordinary decoration. He put down his arms and let the curtains fall. He said to another person here with some luck:
"Fortunately, we were timid and ran away as soon as we saw something was wrong. Otherwise, the losses would have been even greater, and even people might have been injured."
Bai Jilan heard this and nodded in agreement:
"Yeah yeah."
Then he complimented:
"Gui Lao still has enough experience to be able to make prompt decisions. Now, we have retained most of the resources. When Xiang will arrive in Nanyan City, the guild leader will be very happy."
The team from the White Crane Chamber of Commerce's stronghold left the city too timely. It was indeed a matter of luck. After they left the city, according to the news from the people left behind, the Ninglu Army's attack intensity suddenly increased, and hundreds of thousands of troops almost swarmed forward. The talisman array was destroyed twice.
He even said: If this situation continues, if there are no other variables, Lieyun City will definitely not be able to defend it.
"Haha..." Gui Tonghai smiled helplessly:
"You, you don't know what the situation was at that time? What you say about having enough experience and what about making a prompt decision are all false. In fact, they are afraid. The armies of the two states are facing each other. My skills are nothing at all. If I move against the current, , if you are not careful, it will turn into powder."
After saying that, he suddenly laughed unconsciously and felt that he was quite lucky.
At this time, Bai Jilan's eyebrows moved slightly, his emotions calmed down, he quickly took out the message charm from his pocket, looked at it quickly, and his expression immediately became excited.
Seeing this, Gui Tonghai asked with a smile:
"Is there any news from the General Assembly?"
"Who is coming to meet you?
"Xie Jun or Cao Feng?"
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, Bai Jilan's expression turned strange.
"What? Not the two of them?" Gui Tonghai had a clear mind and guessed the answer right away.
He was not satisfied with this decision. If the General Assembly didn't send a warrior of pattern realm to respond, what use would it be?
At this time, Bai Jilan finally came to his senses and said:
"Don't be disappointed after returning home. This time, the General Assembly did not send Hall Master Xie and Deputy Sect Leader Cao to come over to help. However, the one who is coming is a warrior at the pattern level just like you."
"Oh?" Gui Tonghai became interested when he heard this:
"Has anyone else joined the Chamber of Commerce?"
"Tell me, what's your name?
"I might still know him."
Texture masters are all well-known figures in Nanyan City. Even if Gui Tonghai is not familiar with many of them, he has heard their names.
Bai Jilan smiled, shook his head and said:
"It's not like outsiders are new to our chamber of commerce."
Facing Gui Tonghai's confused gaze, he explained:
“It is within our chamber of commerce that there are warriors who have broken through the boundaries of the talisman realm and advanced to a higher level.
"Oh, this is Jiang Yan. It says that he has been appointed as the new Baihe Hall Master by the guild leader, taking over the position of Xie Da Hall Master.
"Do you have any impressions of this before you retire?"
Anyway, he had no impression. He didn't remember that there was such a person before the Chamber of Commerce, and he was on the verge of a breakthrough.
"Jiang Yan?" Gui Tonghai thought about it carefully and shook his head.
…
…
Phew! !
In the wilderness, Jiang Yan followed the auxiliary road and just landed at a small oasis in the desert. He was about to rest for a while when he felt that he was locked by a cruel will.
He pinched his left hand, which had become cold, and suddenly laughed:
"Hey, there's actually a surprise?"
…
