To the south of Li County are endless mountains.
There are many ancient trees in the mountain, and the crowns of the trees are tall and dense. On the forest floor, only some shrubs and moss with strong vitality can survive better.
Winter has entered, and the weather is getting cooler, especially with cloudy weather like today. Even though the vegetation in the mountains and forests here is still full of green, it looks a bit depressing under the dim light.
There is a tall ancient tree deep in the jungle. The highest branch is a long way above the forest sea. Sitting on the branch as thin as a willow branch is a man wrapped in a black cloth robe. His figure is quite strong. At this moment Sitting on the branch, it seems to have no weight at all, swaying with the wind. Looking from a distance, it is like a piece of black coarse cloth being blown to the branch by the wind.
The man in black robe sat there and looked to the north. After watching for a while, he seemed a little tired, so he lay down like that, his hands behind his head, and the small branches supported him.
After a while, a figure in a red robe landed on a tree next to him. He first glanced cautiously to the north, then raised his head to look at the man in black robe on the branch, "Hey, Tuan. Mr. Xiao, are you a little too arrogant this time? This place is not far from their front camp, are you not afraid of being discovered by the old immortal on the other side?"
The man in black robe didn't even turn his head and snorted coldly, "Will I be afraid of him? So what if he finds out? If you have the guts to abandon the camp and follow me in the jungle for a few circles, huh, it's you. , you actually dare to follow me here, you are very brave."
The red-robed man shrank his neck again when he heard this, and his dark eyes looked north involuntarily, and said with a dry smile, "Now that the two sides are confronting each other, it would be hard for Lijun to take the initiative to provoke him... ."
The man in black robe smiled mockingly and ignored him.
The man in red robe jumped up to the man in black robe and sat on a slightly thicker branch, which tilted the entire top of the tree. He lowered his voice and asked, "Old Tuan Xiao, are you going north this time?" ...are you serious about it?"
"Of course we have to be serious," the man in black robe tilted his head slightly and glanced at the man in red robe and said, "Even Riyue Lake, which has never participated in the matter of going north, has sent many experts, including Ten Thousand Poison Sect, Yougu, and Blood Spring Mountain. , Kirishima, as long as you can name the Southern Xinjiang forces, they have really gathered together this time."
The man in red robes clicked his tongue and said in wonder, "In this way, the frontier troops in these counties will never be able to stop the southern Xinjiang from moving north." He shook his head and looked north, this time with some pity in his eyes, " It's a pity that there are so many human beings. It would be fine if they fell into the hands of me in Wanchong Valley. But if they were kept captive by the people in the Valley and Blood Spring Mountain, it would be really... However, there are more people involved, and the benefits are divided. There are just a few."
"There are more people participating, and there are more directions for the main attack. This time it is not a small fight in the past years. Liulin County and Qingzhou County on the other side of Jiangzhou have been included in the main direction of attack. We are just waiting for a day. If we break through, follow-up reinforcements will continue to pour in," the man in black robe laughed a few times and said, "It just depends on who breaks through first, and whoever breaks through first will be able to drink the soup."
The red-robed man's eyes lit up, and then he looked at the black-robed man with some doubts, "Now on the human race's southern defense line, the one most likely to be breached is Anyang County, which has lost its first line of defense. Secondly, since Riyue Lake Although he is relieved and willing to let us pass through the northern territory, Liulin County and Qingzhou County in Jiangzhou are also excellent choices. In the end, even if these good roads are snatched by forces such as Wandu Sect, it will not work anymore. Why did you choose Li County when you can return to the border of Yongchang County, which we have been operating for a long time, to take advantage?" He looked to the north, "With Lu Dongfeng guarding here, you may not be able to take advantage no matter what."
"Lu Dongfeng?" The man in black robe snorted disdainfully and said, "Nowadays, these counties are lined up in a row. It seems that Li County is the most difficult to attack, so the other places have been defeated by all forces. The fight for Li County, like the Anyang County or Liulin County and Qingzhou County you mentioned, has not come to an end until now, but Li County has been decided long ago. I occupy one side, and the Wandu Sect lets the other side An old fox has taken over, do you think we are fools? Do you have to wait until the other direction is broken before we go in to drink soup?"
The man in black robe sat up and looked at the man in red robe and said, "It's true that something big is going to happen if we don't protect Li County." He turned to look north, "That old dog in Yongchang County paid me a big price to kill the returning man." The reason why I wanted to give Xiang Zhengzi was to give his grandson one less rival to compete for the position of governor. However, I didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with it until I failed the mission and returned to Wan Chong Valley. Now that the governor of Li County is still very young, the old dog is at this time. Is it too risky to do such a thing? Even if that old dog is really a mad dog, he would not dare to do it, especially since Old Man Lu is dead and we are obviously going to play in China. He Dare you offend Lijun at this time?"
He turned back to look at the man in red robe, and the old face under the black robe was somewhat excited. "Let's look at the movements in Li County. The southern army was transferred to the north, and the northern army was moving south. The two armies that originally relied on Yongchang County were replaced by The elite southern army was like two arrows pointing directly at the hinterland of Yongchang County, forcing Yongchang County to also mobilize its elite troops to go north. Is this tense atmosphere just because of a proton? Especially that proton has returned to Licheng safely. ! Then there is only one answer. When the old dog from Yongchang County invited us to assassinate the proton, he also arranged for his backhand to kill the prefect of Li County as well!!"
The man in red robe widened his eyes in shock, "This...!"
"You can't believe it, right?" The man in black robe laughed cheerfully, and his deliberately suppressed laughter still frightened several birds nearby and flew up in panic. However, before they could fly high into the sky, their bodies stiffened and fell down one by one. "At first, I thought it was impossible. Until the old fox from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect stepped forward and chose a direction from Lijun, I felt that there was a high probability that there was really going to be a big problem with Lijun and Yongchang County. This time Anyang County's first line of defense was broken, and I, Wan Chong Valley, put in a lot of effort, but if I were to fight for Liulin County and Qingzhou County, the benefits of Anyang County would be a bit uncertain, but I chose it. Lijun is the most difficult one to crack. It’s hard for other parties to squeeze me out of Wanchong Valley in Anyang County. But what they don’t know is that Lijun... who knows, may be the first. The hole was breached!!”
The man in red robe looked to the north with his mouth open, and there were some ripples in his dark eyes. "Although Li County is still not as rich as Anyang County and Jiangzhou County, the population is actually quite large. It is surrounded by The mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we, the Ten Thousand Insect Valley, were to monopolize it..."
"It is impossible to monopolize. If we are the first to break through the defense line, it will not be difficult to get a good place near the mountains and forests." The smile on the face of the man in black gradually faded, and his eyes looking towards the north were a little cold. "As long as your Li County is really in chaos, even if all these people are filled in, I will still open a hole for the demon army behind," he raised his hand, looked at the two fingers missing and murmured Said to himself, his voice was cold, "Silversmith..."
The sky is overcast and the winter rain is falling.
