Chapter 1682: A backup plan that has been buried for five months (happy May 1st) _3
They understood the Imperial advisor’s concerns. They couldn’t give Wei Yuan any more time. The longer they delayed, the worse the situation would be.
If they won the battle of the Northern Territory, everything would be fine.
But what if he failed?
Luo Yuheng had successfully advanced to rank one, and the battle at the transcendent level was almost on par. With Wei Yuan’s strategic planning … Just thinking about it made his scalp numb.
Everyone was originally very confident in the battle, but as time passed, most of them wavered.
It was almost 10 years old, but the Buddha of the Kyara tree and the White Emperor had not killed Xu Qi ‘an and the others.
If they could kill him, they would have killed him long ago. The fact that there was no result so far meant that the battle in the North must have run into trouble.
Qi Guangbo said, ”
“Pass down my order. Attack the city at dawn.”
Ji Xuan said,
“The Imperial Preceptor and I will be responsible for restraining sun Xuanji and the old fogey from martial Union. You all must take down Yongzhou as soon as possible.”
Everyone said in unison, ”
“I’ll die ten thousand times!”
……….
The Cold Moon hung high in the sky.
A horse galloped through the narrow mountain road, stopping from time to time to determine the direction according to the position of the full moon.
After a night of running in the wilderness, they finally saw fire ahead.
The light from the fire grew brighter and brighter, and the outline of the corresponding building was reflected in the eyes of the black-robed Knight.
It was an abandoned military town built in the mountains.
The horse galloped on the stone-covered path and arrived outside the military town. Suddenly, an arrow was shot in the night and nailed the Knight on the road.
The rider on the horse pulled on the reins, and the warhorse neighed and came to a sudden stop.
From the grass on both sides of the gravel path, more than a dozen armed soldiers emerged.
The leader of the soldiers shouted, ”
“Who’s there!”
The Knight did not panic at all, and said in a calm tone, ”
“I’m here to see your leader under the orders of Duke Wei.”
He didn’t know who the leader was.
………
In the small building in the middle of the military town, Nangong qianrou sat at the table, wiping her shiny saber.
In the past five months, he was used to wiping his weapon before going to bed.
He was waiting for the day when he would lead an Army to destroy the witch God religion and take revenge for his foster father.
The oil lamp’s dim yellow light reflected on his beautiful face. He had a soft temperament, snow white skin, cherry lips, and picturesque eyebrows. If not for his cold and threatening eyes, which were not owned by a woman, and his obvious Adam’s apple, anyone who saw him would think that he was a woman.
Furthermore, she was an absolute beauty.
After meeting sun Xuanji that day, he had followed the directions in the brocade bag left by his foster father and came to this abandoned military town.
There was enough food for 10000 soldiers to eat for a whole year. After all, this batch of food was for 100000 soldiers.
In addition to food, there were also candles, kerosene, and the corresponding daily necessities and supplies, but the quantity was very small.
After seeing the rations, Nangong qianrou suddenly realized where the missing rations had gone to during the war against the witch God religion.
However, he was only half right. These rations were indeed the batch that had disappeared. However, it was not Wei Yuan who had cut off the rations. The previous emperor had secretly moved the rations through water transportation.
However, he was robbed by the people arranged by Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan had expected the previous emperor to cut off his provisions.
Nangong qianrou was not aware of her mission. Wei Yuan had given her three silk pouches through sun Xuanji, one of which contained an address and an order for her to wait for an opportunity.
Nangong qianrou did not know what she was waiting for.
He didn’t open the other two silk pouches.
Nangong qianrou believed that when the time was right, Wei Yuan would let her open the pouch, even if this scheming da Qingyi was already dead.
At this moment, an armored soldier knocked on Nangong qianrou’s door and said, ”
“General Nangong, there’s someone outside the town who wishes to see you.”
Nangong qianrou’s wiping motion paused. She took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions in her heart.
“Bring him in!”
Soon, a black man was brought in. Nangong qianrou examined him and was shocked.
“You?”
The black-robed man also examined Nangong qianrou, and his eyes went from bewilderment to shock. Then, he revealed a look of realization.
Nangong Jinluo?!
The heaven’s secrets concealing technique was ineffective against “witnesses” when they saw the person in person.
However, in order for everyone to remember it, it had to be exposed to the public, which meant that there had to be more than three people (this setting was mentioned at the end of the second volume).
Nangong qianrou nodded, ”
“So you’re also my foster father’s spy. Does Prince huaiqing know?”
This man was the head guard of huaiqing’s residence.
A trusted aide among trusted aides.
“Now it’s His Majesty huaiqing.” After the guard Captain finished speaking, he revealed a bitter smile.
“I didn’t know before, but after his Majesty huaiqing took over Duke of Wei’s spies, I knew. His Majesty is kind and generous. He didn’t punish me and is still willing to put me in an important position. However, she still doesn’t know about the mission that Lord Wei gave me before he left.”
Your Majesty … Nangong qianrou continued to ask, ”
“What mission did foster father give you?”
……….
