"Your Majesty, this is it~"

After spending most of the night, Chen Yue and Chang Huaiyi finally appeared at the entrance of a tree-lined path.

Chen Yue's face showed a bit of fatigue, and the tail of his robe was full of juice stained by leaves, green and dirty, but Prince Liang was in a good mood at the moment, with a smile on his lips.

The path Chang Huaiyi mentioned was indeed hidden. After everyone left the mountain road, they wandered around in the mountains and forests for two hours before arriving here. Even Chen Yue was stunned along the way.

And even if you walk here, you may not be able to find a road here, because the surrounding woods are too dense and can easily block your view. This path is not eye-catching at all in the vast mountain forest.

In terms of concealment, you would never have discovered this road if you hadn't searched carefully and were just passing by.

Chen Yue looked around and said:

"How did you find such a hidden place?"

"Harm." Chang Huaiyi said softly:

"I used to go hunting in Beiguan, the garrison town, when I had nothing to do. I went around this mountain range dozens of times. Once I was chasing a hare, and I came here unknowingly, and then I discovered this road."

"That's it~"

Chenyue nodded slowly and asked with some uncertainty:

"You said that if you follow this road eastward, you can drill it in about twenty miles.

Leave this mountain range and then reach the hinterland of Jizhou?"

"That's right." Chang Huaiyi nodded with certainty and said, "The general has walked through it in person and will definitely be able to pass. As long as the large group of cavalry lines up in an orderly manner and pays attention to their speed, they will definitely be able to pass."

Chang Huaiyi looked confident. He knew that this matter was very important and related to the overall deployment of the Liang army in the future.

Chenyue looked into the distance along the tree-lined path and said:

"Huaiyi, it's not that I don't believe you.

After so many years, no one knows whether this road can still be walked. There may be a landslide somewhere that has cut off the road, or the trees may have grown too dense and changed the original direction of the road.

These are all possible, so we’d better make sure, otherwise it will be a waste of effort in the end.”

Chang Huaiyi scratched his head and said:

"Your Majesty, what you want is to take a walk around and take a look?"

"Um!"

Chenyue showed an eager expression: "Let's go into the mountain and take a walk."

"no!"

Chang Huaiyi and Xu Luo pulled the reins almost at the same time and stood in front of Chen Yue.

Chang Huaiyi said solemnly: "This road leads to the interior of Jizhou. The Yan army may appear at any time. The prince is a rich man, how can he be involved in danger?"

No way, absolutely not!"

Xu Luo also echoed:

"Before leaving the customs, Xin Duhu Qian warned and asked Wan to

Protect the safety of the prince, and my subordinates will never let him enter the mountain."

Their expressions were very determined, with no intention of giving in.

Chenyue smiled bitterly when he saw this:

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Chang Huaiyi and Xu Luo looked at each other and said in unison:

"Let's go together. The prince can just wait here. If we go back and forth on the twenty-mile mountain road, we can come back in one day at most."

Chen Yue frowned and thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement:

"Okay, it's up to you two to go forward, and bring ten more good soldiers. Pay attention to safety. If you encounter the Yan people, retreat immediately. Don't fight them in the interior of Jizhou."

Chang Huaiyi is familiar with the terrain, and Xu Luo is steady-minded. Chen Yue is quite reassured by the combination of the two of them.

"promise!"

The two of them clasped their fists together in response, and Xu Luo even shouted to the crowd:

"Jianghe!"

"My subordinate is here!"

The young Jiang He stepped out and quickly came to Xu Luo: "Boss, what are your orders?"

Xu Luo said in a deep voice:

"The prince's safety is left to you. No matter what happens, you must ensure the prince's safety!"

"promise!"

The river responded with a deep voice.

"Okay, let's go." Chenyue said:

"Go early and come back early!"

"promise!"

…

Another day has passed, and the area around this tree-lined path is quiet and very quiet. You can only find it if you look carefully.

Dozens of figures sat cross-legged among the lush dense forests.

Jiang He and a group of white horse followers spread out in twos and threes in a huge arc with Chen Yue as the center. They could see any movement within a radius of one or two places. The war horses were also well hidden by them and they could not see at all.

There are no traces of human activity here.

One after another, sharp eyes continued to sweep through the lush mountains and forests, paying attention to any accidents that might occur.

Jiang He sat next to Chen Yue, looking towards the entrance of the tree-lined path from time to time, looking slightly anxious.

According to the agreed time, Chang Huaiyi and Xu Luo should be back at this time. Why haven't they shown up yet?

Chenyue, who had closed his eyes for a nap, slowly opened his eyes and said softly:

"Xiaohe, don't worry, the two of them are reassuring, it's okay."

Jiang He scratched his head and said softly:

"Your Majesty, after all, we are going to the mainland of Jizhou. There are only a dozen of us. If we encounter the Yan army~"

Jiang He was quite worried and frowned.

"hehe."

Chenyue chuckled softly: "This is a jungle, and the Yan army is at most a small group of scouts. Who among the dozen or so of them has not experienced hundreds of battles? It is easy to deal with those Yan army scouts.

Even if you can't defeat him, you can still escape in the jungle. Just keep your mind at ease and wait patiently."

"promise!"

hear

After Chen Yue said so, Jiang He nodded.

"Da da da~"

After an unknown amount of time, a slight sound of horse hooves finally came from the trail, which was extremely harsh in the silent mountain forest.

Jiang He's eyes lit up, and with a wave of his hand, dozens of Bai Ma Yi stood up in an instant and pressed their palms on the handles of their swords to prevent any changes.

Fortunately, the figures that appeared were Chang Huaiyi and Xu Luo. Although they looked tired, they showed no signs of fighting with the Yan people.

Jiang He grinned: "Haha, I'm finally back."

"Your Majesty!"

The two of them rushed to Chen Yue and said impatiently:

"It does lead to the interior of Jizhou. Although the roads have changed in some places, if you look carefully, you can still travel through the entire valley."

Chang Huaiyi's face was filled with excitement that could not be concealed, and he felt completely relieved after going there in person.

"Huh~ That's good!"

Chenyue let out a long breath and said with a smile on his face:

"Now that the route has been determined, the next step is to plan the war. Let's go back to the city first."

"promise!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

Chen Yue got on his horse, looked at Xu Luo and said:

"Leave some manpower hidden around here. If any blind Yan army comes here again, we will kill them.

When you get back, tell the crossbowman to arrange for two hundred skilled soldiers to sneak into the forest secretly and monitor the movements around here day and night."
