After entering Nangong Navy, Liu Xia and Caiwei glanced into the distance.

In the huge Nangong family navy camp, the sound of drills can be heard all the time, everything is well organized and orderly, and it is not comparable to the imperial navy.

Liu Xia couldn't help but worry that after the war started, the imperial navy would encounter such a strong opponent as the Nangong family navy. What would happen?

"Brother, how do we find Nangong Xingchen?"

Caiwei asked softly.

"Don't worry, let's unload the goods first."

Immediately, Liu Xia and Caiwei began to mingle with the logistics army and unload the goods in the warehouse.

It is estimated that the Nangong family has transferred part of the navy's logistics army to cope with the frontline battle. Therefore, the coolies here basically do not know each other. They should be newly recruited troops and have not been around for long.

After a busy afternoon, everyone returned to the camp to rest in the evening.[

The logistics army is basically composed of strong men and does not participate in military training. They eat and rest as soon as it gets dark.

After Liu Xia and Caiwei were assigned to the camp, they mixed in with the crowd and went in to rest.

At night, Liu Xia quietly stood up, took out a pack of dark green powder from his arms, and sprinkled it on the ground. The powder evaporated instantly, and snoring suddenly broke out in the tent.

"Okay, these people are all asleep. Use tracking skills to find the whereabouts of Nangong Xingchen. At this time, he should be handling official business in the Chinese army's tent and has not rested yet."

Liu Xia smiled.

"OK."

Caiwei stood up and caught two mice in the tent. After applying the tracking technique, they put them on the ground. Then Caiwei sat cross-legged and the two mice quickly rushed out of the tent.

————————————————————

Everything was quiet, the waves were gently lapping at the coast, and the air was filled with the smell of sea water.

Occasionally, a patrol patrol passed by, but soon fell into silence again.

All around the Chinese army camp, the crackling sound of bonfires could be heard, and the soldiers on duty were also a little drowsy at the moment.

In the Chinese army's tent, Nangong Xingchen was looking at the coast map at his desk, frowning deeply and lost in thought.

What he held in his hand was a battle report, now crumpled into a ball.

"General, with such a big movement in the Imperial Navy, I'm afraid it's likely to be activated. If they encounter us, I'm afraid it will be very detrimental to us."

At this moment, in the large tent of the Chinese army, a general said in a low voice.[

"I have heard that Liu Xia is a very clever man. Could it be that he has seen through our plan and used the navy to deal with us?"

Another staff member followed and said.

"It's not impossible."

Nangong Xingchen stood up and said with his hands behind his back.

"So how do we respond?"

"The imperial navy is extremely weak, the warships are badly worn, the officials are corrupt, and the soldiers have been trained for a long time. I don't think there are more than a hundred warships that can participate in the war. I think it is very important. With our strength, it is more than enough to defeat them. Moreover,

The sea is vast, so it is not difficult for us to avoid them. As long as we can reach the north smoothly, it will not affect the outcome of the war."

At this time, a young general said.

This general has some similarities with Nangong Xingchen's facial features, and he is Nangong Xingchen's grandson - Nangong Yongwu.

Nangong Xingchen had a son in his later years, but he didn't want to ruin the battlefield in southern Xinjiang thirty years ago, leaving only Nangong Yongwu as his lifeline. Nangong Xingchen valued him very much and kept him by his side.

After these years of experience, Nangong Yongwu has become the second-ranking figure in the Nangong family navy.

What you say still carries a lot of weight.

"The analysis of the Major General is also very reasonable. It is unrealistic for the imperial navy to rebuild in a short time. It takes a day to freeze three feet. Even if Liu Xia has great abilities, he can't do it in a month."

To rectify such an army that has been in such a state of decay. Secondly, rectifying the navy requires a lot of funds. The imperial treasury may have already exhausted its expenditure. If Liu Xia dares to impose excessive taxes, it will be a great help to us. Therefore, my subordinates feel that it is not a cause for concern.

.”

"Yes, it's just that we avoid them and spend one more day bumpy on the sea. Anyway, the generals are already used to it."

Immediately, everyone in the big tent laughed, and the tense atmosphere suddenly eased.

"We have to guard against Liu Xia. Forget it, let's change the route to avoid him. Okay, it's getting late today. Everyone, please go back and rest. We will set off in five days, so don't

What trouble will happen again?"

Nangong Xingchen gave instructions in a serious tone.

"As commanded."

Immediately, many generals clasped their fists in salute and then exited the tent.

"Yong'er, wait."

Nangong Xingchen said.

"Grandpa, what do you want from me?"

"You don't have to go out with me on this expedition. It's better to go back to Peach Blossom Island and wait for news."

Nangong Xingchen said.

"What?"

Nangong Yongwu was obviously a little surprised.

"You are the only one in my lineage. This plan is to win in danger. Even if we successfully reach the north, there is still a fierce battle waiting for us. I don't want anything to happen to you."

"Grandpa, I don't agree."

Nangong Yongwu said stubbornly.

"This matter is settled. You can pack your things and return to Peach Blossom Island tomorrow morning. Go ahead."

Nangong Xingchen suddenly frowned and said.

Although Nangong Yongwu was not convinced, he was also very afraid of Nangong Xingchen. Seeing that Nangong Xingchen was angry, he did not dare to tell the difference.

I can only clasp my fists in aggrieved manner and say: "I obey."

Nangong Xingchen saw the aggrieved look on his face and comforted him reluctantly: "You are still young, and there will be plenty of time for you to make great achievements in the future. But this time, you must listen to me. In the battle of Yongle City, your second uncle was killed and your cousin was seriously injured.

It is also the owner’s intention to let you go back.”

Nangong Yongwu was stunned when he heard this.

If Nangong Xingchen only asked him to go back, it was just to make him safer and more affectionate, and he wanted to make contributions to the Nangong family even more.

However, if the head of the family asked him to go back, that would be very meaningful.

The Nangong family has a total of sixteen people, but in the past hundred years or so, it has been controlled by the radical faction of the Nangong family.

Nangong Tianwen is a representative of the radicals.

As for the radical faction of the Nangong family, since Nangong Tianwen came under Nangong Tianwen, there are a total of six generations of people. However, due to the number of casualties over the years, how many suitable heirs are left.

Obviously, Nangong Tianwen did not want to hand over the power of the family head to the conservatives. He still wanted to select the next family head from the radical faction.

Naturally, Nangong Yongwu is a suitable candidate.

"I see."

Nangong Yongwu nodded and said.

"It's good to understand. When you go back, be careful with your behavior. It's better than here, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away. If you have a chance to be favored by the head of the family, I will be happy."

Nangong Xingchen smiled happily.

"I will work hard, don't worry Grandpa."

Nangong Yongwu smiled.

"Okay, let's go back and rest early. We'll set off early tomorrow morning. Let's go."

Nangong Xingchen said.

"As commanded."

Immediately, Nangong Yongwu exited the room.

At Liu Xia's place, the bloody light in Caiwei's eyes gradually dissipated, and she said with a pleased smile: "Brother, I found it. Nangong Xingchen is indeed in the Chinese army camp. I also heard that the five of them

In a few days, we will set off."

When Liu Xia heard this, he smiled and said: "It seems we are lucky. Mark me their location."

Caiwei immediately took out a pen and paper and began to draw a map. After a while, she gave Liu Xia the map of the entire naval camp and marked the location of Nangong Xingchen.

Liu Xia took a look and said, "Girl, less than thirty meters away from our place is the Nangong family's warehouse. When you stay here for a while, when you hear the chaos outside, you take the opportunity to light their warehouse and escape from the camp. Then you

Then go back to Jiangzhou directly and wait for me in the naval camp."

"Then be careful yourself."

"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of a mere Nangong Xingchen. Besides, with your senior brother, even if you can't defeat him, there's no problem in escaping."
