Chapter 489 Reminder from Mu Qingcheng.
Looking at Ning Fan with an evil smile on his face, Qu Hongxiu biting her red lips, her eyes full of humiliation, is it possible that she can't even die now?
"Miss, we will protect you and fight out!"
"That's it!"
Qu Hongxiu sighed softly and looked at Ning Fan with a complex expression. She didn't expect that the second prince, who was known as a playboy, could hide so deeply.
At that moment, she actually believed this man's lies!
"I didn't expect that my half-year plan in Donghuai would be resolved by His Highness in just a few words!"
"Now, I have become a sinner of the Donghuai Kingdom. What will happen if I go back?"
"I just don't know what your Highness is going to do with Hong Xiu?"
Ning Fan's eyes scanned back and forth on Qu Hongxiu's body unscrupulously, but his eyes were extremely clear. They were just admiring the beauty, without the slightest hint of lewdness. They were completely different from before!
"My house is still short of a few dancers, so Miss Qu should settle down in my house first!"
"You are brave..."
Qu Hongxiu's face was calm, but the two maids beside him were furious. Ning Fan smiled faintly, looked at Qu Hongxiu deeply, turned around and left.
"Take all the red-sleeved craftsmen back to Jinyiwei and interrogate them one by one!"
"As you command!"
…
Eastern Territory.
On an ancient road.
A group of black-armored cavalry galloped past, kicking up billowing smoke. The leader was a veteran wearing armor and carrying a spear, galloping on his horse.
"Goo!"
Spirit pigeons flew from the sky and hovered over the leading general. The man's expression became condensed, and he immediately waved his hand to order the army to stop!
"General, you are the princess's dove!"
"Why is the news coming at this time?"
"Is it possible that something unexpected happened again?"
The leader of the veteran frowned slightly, stretched out his hand, and the spirit pigeon fluttered and landed in his hand. The veteran took out the note from the bamboo tube on the pigeon's foot, and his expression immediately changed.
"General, what happened?"
"Princess sent a message that Dayu set up an ambush outside Huaining City!"
"What!"
The several generals beside the veteran all looked shocked, showing a look of panic: "What's going on? Could it be that the news has been leaked?"
"call!"
"Send an order to the army, change the rear army into the front army, retreat ten miles to camp, and send out all the scouts to explore the enemy's situation in the direction of Huaining City!"
"As you command!"
The veteran general looked towards Huaining City with a look of reluctance in his eyes: "What link went wrong? Is it possible that there is a mole in the army?"
"Dayu set up a trap?"
"In other words, from the beginning, this was a plan on the part of Dayu?"
"impossible……"
Seeing his general talking to himself, the deputy general on the side said solemnly: "General, why don't you lead three thousand light cavalry to clear the way ahead, and report immediately if there is any movement?"
"No!"
The veteran shook his head without hesitation and said: "If it is true as the princess said, our army has now penetrated deep into Dayu's border. Once Dayu launches an encirclement against us, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"Order the withdrawal and wait for news from the scouts!"
"Follow your orders"
…
Huaining City, a wilderness in the northwest!
Groups of black-armored soldiers were hiding in the jungle, holding strong bows and crossbows in their hands, waiting quietly.
"drive!"
"Eight hundred miles from the capital, expedited!"
A melodious shout came from afar, and a middle-aged general in the jungle immediately changed his expression slightly. Looking back, he saw a man and a horse galloping towards him.
"Report!"
"The Donghuai army raided our Huaining city. Please, Sir, please speed up the army to return for reinforcements?"
"What?"
The expression of Duke Zhao Changying immediately changed, and there was also a look of panic on his face. Now Dayu's main army was setting up ambushes everywhere outside the city, waiting for Donghuai's main force to enter the network!
But they actually drove straight in and raided Huaining City?
You must know that Huaining City is the first barrier to the east of Yu the Great, and it also stores the food and logistics for the army. Once Huaining City is lost, the consequences will be disastrous!
"Who are you? Why did the news of Donghuai's raid on Huaining City come from the capital?"
"Report to your lord..."
"Donghuai used the Red Sleeve Move as a bait to deliberately spread false news released by the imperial court and asked us to set up a trap for him. In fact, all this was Donghuai's plan to deliberately lure us out of the city in order to seize Huaining City!"
"What did you say!"
Zhao Changying's face was full of shock. Isn't this ambush a trap set by His Majesty for Donghuai?
Why did Donghuai set up a trap for me, Dayu, again?
"Your Excellency, please quickly send your troops back for reinforcements!"
"Who are you?"
"Do you have a token of His Majesty's presence?"
"Reporting to your lord, the last general, Jin Yiwei Baihu Zhao Yu, has been given a gold medal by His Highness as proof!"
"Jinyiwei?"
The frown on Zhao Changying's forehead deepened. Looking at the Imperial Order in the man's hand, his expression was shocked: "His Royal Highness King Sheng sent you here?"
"No, it's His Royal Highness King Xuan Yong..."
"nonsense!"
Zhao Changying's face was full of sneer, and he said angrily: "Come here, take it down!"
"Among all the princes, only His Royal Highness Prince Sheng has been granted the Imperial Order by His Majesty!"
"What bullshit Jinyiwei Baihu..."
"It's better to actually summon him!"
Seeing the cold look on Zhao Changying's face, Zhao Yu said with some tears in his eyes: "Replying to your lord, the last general was really sent by King Xuan Yong!"
"The military situation is urgent now, you don't have to believe me!"
"It's just that if our army sets up an ambush here, it won't be able to wait for the main force from Donghuai!"
"They are now on their way to Huaining City. Once Huaining City is lost, you will know the seriousness of the matter!"
"As for whether what the general said is true or false, you only need to send a scout to find out!"
"If we don't come back for help, it will be too late..."
Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Zhao Changying also looked thoughtful. This person had the imperial order as proof, so he must be from the capital, but why is he King Xuanyong?
Isn't that a great dandy who is famous in the capital?
How could he have the Royal Order from His Majesty in his hand?
And what kind of organization is this Jinyiwei? Why have I never heard of it?
Seeing that Zhao Changying still showed a hint of hesitation, Zhao Yu directly drew out the short blade from his waist, and several generals beside Zhao Changying quickly stepped forward to protect him.
"Sir, the military situation is urgent and we cannot afford any delay. The general will be willing to learn from his own death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Yu directly stabbed himself in the heart with the short blade. Zhao Changying immediately looked moved and grabbed Zhao Yu's arm.
"Someone is coming!"
"exist!"
"Pass my military order to send out all the scouts to investigate the official roads in the Northeast!"
"The army immediately returned to aid Huaining City. Once the scouts found out the movements of the main force in Donghuai, they immediately summoned Duke Ping and Duke Yue and asked them to cut off Donghuai's retreat!"
"As you command!"
One person took the order and left, and dozens of scouts rode out. Zhao Changying's eyes fell on the hundreds of Jinyi guards and said softly: "You also know that this matter is very important, so I have to be cautious!"
"I have seen your loyalty. If the news is true, you will be my hero, Dayu!"
"Don't dare!"
When Zhao Yu saw Zhao Changying leading his troops to return for reinforcements, he burst into tears with excitement. He bowed respectfully and said, "Nothing is wrong in the east. I will live up to your highness's trust!"
"call!"
"Sir, I have been ordered to come here this time, but there is one more thing to do!"
Chapter completed!
