    In the southern part of Jecheng, tens of thousands of troops are lurking in the dense forest outside the city, waiting for the moths to come to the fire.

    "The miscellaneous pieces of the Xuelie clan, this time they will definitely be wiped out." The leading generals talked and laughed, full of confidence. This time they came with 80,000 soldiers and horses, placed a tight encirclement, and faced the soldiers from the expedition of twenty to thirty thousand laborers.

    The horse explorers patrolled the shore day by day, and the sea-viewing mirror scanned the sea visible to the naked eye, waiting for the Nanchen warship to approach and send the prey into the trap.

    At night, the generals gradually relaxed, and the soldiers on patrol were still watching the sea.

    Most of the soldiers temporarily rested, waiting for the next battle. At this rare moment of relaxation, the enemy attack arrived, not from the sea, nor from the sides of the coast, but from the dense woods of the hills behind.

    It wasn't even the 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Xuelie Clan, but a more powerful and massive army.

    Wubei General Ji Hao commanded 80,000 elite soldiers and cut straight into the army of the Tubi tribe from behind, while Dai Deyao led another team of soldiers and horses to launch a fierce attack on the unknown Jicheng.

    After An Tu rested for several months, Da Zhou's soldiers and horses once again moved north.

    ******

    The southeastern part of Nanlan City, once a fertile mountain forest, has temporarily become the station of Nanchen soldiers.

    There are many camps and houses, and more than 20,000 soldiers have been stationed here for a full year.

    This period of leisure is longer than expected. Since arriving in Beishuo, there has been almost no opportunity to mobilize troops, but the generals in command of the soldiers have not slackened in the slightest, and they have been practicing daily.

    Today, it is finally time to act, but not to attack, but to leave.

    The generals and soldiers in the battalion were full of excitement. In this year in Beishuo, although the life was safe and there was no need to go through battles and killings, they were always far away from their hometowns and could not let go. Most of them are children from the six southern counties, and their relatives are still looking forward to them at home. Now that he can finally return to his hometown, everyone is happy.

    After nightfall, Lei Yangbing ordered the army to tidy up, but appeared to rest on the bright side. Just wait for the fleet to return and they can set sail.

    However, after nightfall, the expected ships and horses did not appear for a long time. Instead, the shadows of countless cavalry soldiers rushed from the river in the distance.

    **********

    In Nanlan City, the mansion where the northern Xuelie people stayed. It has always been quiet here, but tonight, it seems to be a noisy night.

    At midnight last night, the high priest and the spiritual girl hurriedly returned, and soon the entire attic boiled.

    Catch the horrible servant who stole the tribe’s treasure and entrapped the tribe.

    Almost everyone jumped for joy. Since the natural disaster came more than 20 years ago, the Xuelie clan has experienced so many painful tortures because of this cruel and cunning fellow.

    The high priest throws people into prison, and revenge is certainly a happy process, but it is even more important to retake the tribe’s treasure. It's a pity that this thief is seriously injured now and cannot be tortured temporarily.

    When night fell again, an accident happened.

    Taking advantage of the darkness, a group of lurking assassins quietly approached the courtyard and turned over into the courtyard.

    It was dozens of martial arts men in black who sneaked all the way to the back of the attic where Helanzhen was imprisoned, only to be discovered by the Xuelie guards.

    I don't know who shouted, "There is an assassin!" The two sides began to draw their swords.

    The entire yard was full of killings, and Tao Yunqing commanded to encircle and suppress these uninvited guests. have long heard that Helanzhen has some power in Nanlan City. didn't expect to dare to take such a risk. When their Xuelie people are vegetarian?

    Compared to the hustle and bustle of the backyard, the attic where the high priest and the spiritual girl lived in the front yard was silent.

    Taking advantage of the opportunity when most of the guards were attracted to the backyard, another group of men in black quietly approached the attic where the spiritual girl lived.

    They are all top masters among the Tubi guards, and what they have to perform this time is also the most difficult task. Killing the haunting spiritual girl left the Xue Lie clan completely without any support.

    The process of infiltrating was smoother than expected, and the strategy of slamming into the west was really clever. When the leader in black was proud, suddenly a fire burst out in the corner of the attic where the spiritual girl lived in front of him. Immediately it caused the screams of nearby attendants.

    "It's on fire!"

    The assassin of the Tubi tribe was stunned. It was a coincidence or was discovered, but the arrow was on the string, and he could only bite the bullet and shout, "Go together!"

    Tao Yunqing and the invading men in black were fighting fiercely, and suddenly the small attic in the east burst into flames.

    It was where the spiritual girl lived, and a guard hurried over and exclaimed, "No, the assassin went to the spiritual girl!"

    It turned out that the group of guys who rescued Helanzhen in front of them were just screaming! Tao Yunqing and everyone were shocked and immediately dispatched the main force to return to the rescue. Only a dozen guards were left, strangling the black men who were used as bait.

    Not long after, the intruder on this side was hacked and killed, and near the attic where the spiritual girl lived, the shouting and killing became more and more intense. A few people were left to guard the cell, and most of them went to the front for support.

    Soon, the vicinity of the cell fell silent.

    Under the silent night, Chen Li listened for a moment, turned over from the back wall, and entered the inner courtyard.

    Hidden in the shadows under the wall, he took a long breath and felt a sharp pain in his chest. After the pain in the meridians abated, he continued to act.

    Just sneaked into the attic where the spiritual girl lived, and set a fire in the corner.

    Although he proposed to Yan Bo to assassinate the soul girl, he couldn't really watch the future allies just die. Set a fire, that intelligent soul girl should be alert. I only hope that the assassins from the Tubi tribe are elite enough to delay for a while so that they can successfully rescue people.

    All the way, with his keen skill and hidden experience, he approached the bottom of the attic without any risk. Having heard clearly before, Helanzhen was detained on top.

    Taking advantage of the absence of the surrounding guards, he sneaked inside, followed the stairs all the way up, and turned over into the prisoner's room. immediately saw a tall and tall figure, being locked in a corner, with thick chains on his wrists and ankles. The prisoner seemed to have passed out in a coma, with his long black hair draped, covering his face.

    Chen Li hurriedly approached the target and was about to bend to greet him, but suddenly his heart was cold and he instinctively felt the danger. At the moment of the moment, he turned over and backed away like a lightning, and this blocked the chain from the opposite side.

    Looking at Shi Shiran's "Helanzhen" standing up in shock, Chen Li immediately understood that he was in the middle.

    Behind him came an unhurried applause, and at the same time there was a compliment, with a familiar smile: "His Royal Highness is good."

    Chen Li turned around and looked at the white figure walking out from the open door behind.

    Hardly greeted: "His Royal Highness."

    Qin Nuo stared at him and smiled: "I thought it would be his subordinate who came to rescue Helanzhen. I didn't expect..."

    Chen Li thought about it, and smiled bitterly: "Let Her Royal Highness laugh, Chen Li can't wait. A few days ago with the help of the noble tribe's spirit stone, the meridian injury has been greatly improved. But the power of the spirit stone is limited after all, thinking if it can With the help of the Northern Emperor Xuanzhu, he will surely recover his martial arts. Chen Li was so obsessed with his heart, he wanted to come and try. This is ungrateful, Li is ashamed and willing to be punished."

    He was ashamed. He was exactly the image of a young man who took risks because of his injury and was severely criticized in his heart.

    Reasonable and flawless. Qin Nuo secretly praised him for his quick response and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness's move is not kind, but it is understandable."

    "But yesterday we tortured Helanzhen, we confessed a lot of things, for example, recently someone commissioned him to go south to pass news, frequent exchanges, no wonder he was spied on."

    Chen Li's heart instantly missed a beat, but his face showed just the right amount of surprise, "What your Majesty said before that Helanzhen colluded with the people of the northern border of Dazhou, is it true?"

    What a perfect expression. Qin Nuo smiled, "It should be."

    "Speaking of, according to the plan, His Royal Highness Nine should rush to the Nanchen Soldiers and Horses camp tonight, right?"

    Tonight is Chen Li's appointment with the Xuelie clan. Soon, the huge warship will return to Nanlan City with the Xuelie clan's elite soldiers, and then the people of Nanchen will board the warship and set sail.

    "I'm leaving soon. From now on, there will be no time to see each other. It makes me sad to think about it." Chen Li smiled, "I wonder if the spiritual girl will remember that she had been with someone like this next year. Talk by the lake."

    There is always an incomprehensible weirdness in the soul girl's talk tonight. Chen Li was secretly alarmed, but his skill lies in being able to let go no matter what the environment.

    The corners of Qin Nuo's mouth twitched, maybe it will be your memorial day next year, bastard!

    He did not answer Chen Li's words, and walked slowly to the balcony of the attic.

    Chen Li hesitated for a while, followed behind him.

    Chen Changan had tied up the scattered black hair, took the towel and wiped off the blood and black dust on his face, stood by and watched Chen Li's movements vigilantly.

    Leaning on a railing, the night breeze is blowing in the hair. After autumn, the weather in Nanlan City quickly became cold.

    The battle in the front yard continued. The invading men in black surrounded the attic where the spiritual girl lived, killing all around. These people were more fierce and difficult than expected. Although the Xue Lie blocked the offensive, the fire near the attic was Can't put it out.

    Qin Nuo frowned: "Oops, I didn't expect these assassins to be so powerful, I'm afraid in the attic..."

    Chen Li's heart moved, and he blurted out and asked, "Is the real Helanzhen imprisoned there?"

    Qin Nuo nodded, with a headache in his voice: "I originally wanted to torture some information. I didn't want these assassins to be so tricky. Anyway, that person is about to die anyway."

    Chen Li's cheek twitched, and after all, he said nothing.

    Qin Nuo shrugged: "Looking at the appearance of His Royal Highness Nine, it seems that you can't bear it."

    Chen Li smiled bitterly: "After all, it is a generation of martial arts clan, I didn't expect it to be like this..."

    Qin Nuo showed a subtle smile: "Why worry about this, tonight will make the Nine His Highness intolerable, I am afraid it is not just a Helanzhen."

    Chen Li was surprised and was about to ask a question. Suddenly, he noticed a fire blazing from the horizon. That direction... is where the Nanchen soldiers and horses are stationed!

    At the same time, there was a distant cry of killing.

    The mansion of the Xue Lie clan was far away from Nanchen's camp, and even the sound could be heard, indicating that the scale of this battle was extremely large, and it must be a battle of the whole army.

    According to the original plan, the replacement of the elites of the Xuelie clan with the Nanchen soldiers and horses should be completed quietly. Afterwards, the Yan Bo clan in Nanlan City should be attacked mainly. How could such a earth-shattering be made? The momentum is coming?

    Did the Tubi people discover their plan, or...

    Chen Li was frightened and angry, and lost her voice: "Which side is it?"

    It was not Qin Nuo who answered him, but another familiar voice.

    "Of course it is the main force of my Muhs Royal court, fighting these ungrateful dog thieves!"

    In the ear, Chen Li trembled all over the body for an instant, like falling into an ice cellar.

    He turned around hurriedly, and at the end of his sight, Mu Kun's figure appeared on the stairs behind, climbing up the steps, his face gloomy.
