Chapter 197 Northern Expedition [Please vote for me! 】
"Nijo!"
"Bump."
"Ahhh...I just wanted to eat!"
"Wait, Am I crazy again?" Wen Yifan put down his cards in confusion.
In the room, Liang Yue, Da Qiao, Li Mo, and Wen Yifan were sitting around a card table, playing mahjong in full swing.
It turns out that Liang Yue heard that senior sister rarely had this kind of entertainment in the past, and wanted to take her to experience it before she recovered her supreme immortal body.
But...
Wen Yifan looked at Liang Yue with a little bit of confusion, "This is obviously a very calm and calculated game. Where is the mood swing?"< br>
“Look at how big they are.” Liang Yue pointed to the opposite side.
They saw Da Qiao riding on Li Mo and squeezing his neck fiercely: "You have obviously caught two pieces a long time ago, why didn't you hit them earlier? It's useless to keep them! If you hit them earlier, Senior Sister Wen doesn't know how to play tricks. I can eat it too!"
"Uh-huh..." Li Mo rolled his eyes and said with difficulty: "Obviously you have been staring at me and made my cards bad, so I can't play this one. Go..."
"It seems a little bit." Wen Yifan couldn't help but say.
The point of Liang Yue's miscalculation is that Senior Sister Wen said before that she just became emotional, not stupid.
This sentence is very correct.
As long as her brain is running, she is still top-notch. Although it was my first time sitting at the card table, I quickly understood the rules and was able to see all directions and listen to all directions. Da Qiao and Li Mo were no match for her.
Liang Yue relied on her brain power to barely lose to her, but she also had the most powerful weapon for beginners...luck.
Even if the two people's cards are formed at the same time, Da Qiao and Li Mo's cannon marks are always directed at Wen Yifan, but not themselves.
"But aren't you happy even if you win?" Liang Yue asked again strangely.
Wen Yifan blinked blankly and looked at a pile of silver ingots in the drawer, "What's so fun about winning money?"
Liang Yue slapped his forehead and missed this.
Senior Sister Wen doesn’t regard money as dirt, at least she doesn’t take it seriously. Xuanmen disciples and descendants of the Wen family, let alone never being short of money, would not starve to death even if they had no money.
She has no concept of gold and silver in her mind.
After playing cards, several people left separately. Liang Yue sent Senior Sister Wen back to her attic. When they were about to say goodbye downstairs, Wen Yifan suddenly said: "Thank you."
"Huh?" Liang Yue asked: "Thank you for what I did, I didn't mean to let you win."
Wen Yifan smiled and said nothing more.
This Enlightenment Leaf came out of nowhere. The elders all suspected that some powerful force secretly hid the Enlightenment Tree. After knowing the news, they were willing to help her.
Perhaps out of gratitude for Xuanmen or the Wen family, but not wanting to expose the fact that the Enlightenment Tree is in his own hands, he thought of such a method. Therefore, the Xuanmen elders decided not to find the owner of the Enlightenment Tree out of moral justice, but also concealed the matter.
Otherwise, a fresh leaf of the Enlightenment Tree is enough to cause an uproar in the human world, even in the realm of gods and fairyland.
Ke Wen Yifan had a different guess. She felt that the Enlightenment Tree might not be in the hands of any force, but perhaps just an ordinary young man.
She remembered that Liang Yue said some strange words to her that day, and then went to the Rakshasa Ghost Market with Wei Ping'er, and Wei Ping'er brought back the blade. Although it doesn't seem to have much to do with Liang Yue, it shouldn't be that difficult for him to guide Wei Ping'er.
Perhaps the teachers thought that he, a young disciple who had just entered Xuanmen, could not have such great abilities, but Wen Yifan felt that Liang Yue had many magical qualities, and nothing he did was strange. .
Of course, she doesn't care whether the truth behind it is what she thinks, and she has no intention of exploring.
What she cares about is that he is willing to take such a big risk to take out the blade.
That's enough.
......
Later, all the Zhu Xie Division members were gathered together again.
Liang Yue looked around and found that Moqiu people who were not very involved in daily operations were all here. It seemed that they had important tasks.
"The matters discussed today must be kept confidential and cannot be disclosed." Xie Wenxi reminded him before saying, "The imperial court has plans to send troops to the north for an expedition. Thirty thousand troops were sent from Beizhou Military Town. We will set off next month."
The Northern Expedition? Hearing this, the Xuanmen disciples were all surprised.
The military strength of the Yin Dynasty has always been heavy in the north and light in the south. The countries in the north have been suppressed to a great extent. The presence of Qi Lianghai has made them afraid to move. There has never been any need to fight.
If the battle is won, it will be a wasteland of ice and snow, and we will still have to mobilize troops and waste money and people.
Is something big happening?
Li Mo first asked: "Who will the Yin Kingdom fight to the north?"
Xie Wenxi said: "This time we will attack Xuanminghai directly."
As soon as these words came out, the four of them were even more surprised.
For thousands of years, the human race and the demon land have not conquered each other, but only very rarely.
Only if the demon land appears sacred can one dare to spy on Kyushu. And when the Demon Land is in trouble, Kyushu will also take a beating.
But this is the first time we have attacked Xuanminghai.
After all, when humans enter the demon land, they will naturally have some disadvantages. The Xuanming Sea is a bitter cold place and the climate is extremely harsh.
The most important thing is that Xuan Minghai is a water monster!
No matter how many people you have, if all the monsters are in the water, can you still chase them?
“Some water demons in the Xuanming Sea formed an alliance with Jiu Yang, opened the waterway, and came to Jiuzhou to cause trouble. Your Majesty sent a national advisor and three divine generals to lead an expedition with the intention of helping several demon kings who are close to the Yin Kingdom , defeat the demon king who is close to Jiu Yang," Xie Wenxi explained, "So only the elite will be used in this battle, and the strategy is just to behead the demon king."
If there is an internal conspiracy, just look for opportunities. In order to kill a certain demon king, this sounds more reliable.
The Yin Dynasty's strategy towards Jiu Yang in the past few decades has been like this. I won't attack your Yang Kingdom directly, but I will attack anyone who dares to help you cause trouble. This is true for people, and it is also true for monsters.
Both Xihai and Tianxia Pass are under the control of the Yin Dynasty. Even if there are smugglers, they still know the severity and will not transport excessive amounts of contraband.
But the road to Xuan Minghai was unsupervised, allowing Jiu Yang to pass freely, and he might take something back with him.
What’s more, like the water demon this time.
If one day Jiu Yang secretly crossed the border with his army, it would not be easy for the Yin Dynasty to get the news.
"But the confession made by the Golden Sheep envoy captured the day before yesterday revealed that Jiu Yang has a spy in the northern military town." Xie Wenxi continued: "If the spy is not found, This expedition may be leaked in advance, and it will be very dangerous for the army to penetrate into the Xuanming Sea, so we need to go to Beizhou Military Town in advance to dig out the spy."
"Since he has confessed. "Didn't you say more?" Da Qiao asked.
“The envoy is only responsible for foreign business in the Golden Sheep Department, and the spies in Beizhou Military Town are not from the Golden Sheep Department, so he doesn’t know much about it. The Golden Sheep Department is still investigating the other party because of the business war. When looking for the source of the goods, we learned about the existence of spies in the military town and were able to pass on the news," Xie Wenxi explained.
The Ministry of Punishment must have coerced and lured Manhu, asking him to confess more things, and maybe the punishment would be reduced, so he told him everything. No matter whether it is relevant or not, reveal everything.
"The army is about to leave. Is it too late to catch the spies now?" Mo Qiuren said.
"Yes." Xie Wenxi nodded and said: "Because the expedition was decided first and the news was obtained later, it is definitely too late to conduct large-scale screening now, so we want to give it a try. If we can't, Maybe the plan will change, and it will take a lot of effort."
All the young people nodded, realizing that this time they have a heavy responsibility on their shoulders.
"We only have a dozen days at most. Time is tight. We can discuss strategies on the road. Except for Miss Wen who needs retreat for healing, the rest of us will go out together." Xie Wenxi gave the order.
“Yes!” Everyone responded in unison.
……
It's a long way to Beizhou. In order to go faster, we need a mount.
Everyone first came to the animal farm outside the capital of God.
It is said to be outside the capital of the gods, but in order to prevent the monsters from disturbing the people, it is actually far away from Longyuan City. Before they even got close to the mountain peak, they could hear the roaring sound coming from it. There was no sign of any birds or beasts nearby.
"With so many of us flying long distances, we need to choose a bird monster with a large size and strong endurance." Shang Yunhai knows the monsters best. As soon as he entered the animal farm, he recommended, "The best It is a negative mountain roc used in the army to transport key military supplies. "
The areas on both sides of the animal farm are vast, and a secret iron fence and iron net are used to block an aisle in the middle for people to pass. .
Before they found their target, they heard a whine coming from the side.
Liang Yue sounded familiar. He turned around and saw a slightly withered big-headed monster leaning against the iron fence, looking at them with a resentful look.
"Huh?" He showed a smile.
This monster is also a familiar monster, it is the one that was captured in the cloth village before.
It’s the long-lost Shou Yin!
Good morning.
