"Everyone, the war is coming, and we cannot afford to slack off."
"Commander Gao, you lead a group of people to the North City to check the city wall defenses, offensive and defensive equipment, and spare supplies. You must not make any mistakes. Otherwise, it will be our fault."
"Commander Lanfeng, you lead a team of people to Nancheng to check everything."
"Commander Yuan, you lead a team of people to Dongcheng to check everything."
"I led a team of people to the West City. I have been busy for most of the year, and now it is time to observe the power of our Mohist Mechanism. Rumor has it that the Qin Army has many powerful siege equipment this time."
"I don't know how to attack or defend?"
He bowed deeply to the departing giant master.
Fang Genglei then saluted again and looked at the several Mohist leaders and disciples beside him. This time, there were four commanders coming to Chu State, Commander Gao Jianli and Commander Lan Feng!
Commander Yuanhaocang, and himself.
He and Commander Yuan Haocang were both disciples of the great master in Qilu. Gao Jianli was joined by the Yanzhao Rangers, and Lan Feng was also joined by the Yanzhao Rangers during the Longxi War a few years ago.
Among the powers, Gao Jianli is the strongest at the moment. He is holding... the Shuihan Sword personally crafted by Xu Fuzi from Guancheng. He is capable of competing with the warriors who transform themselves into gods.
Secondly, Lan Feng and himself are all top-notch innately!
I am Master's direct disciple, and upon receiving Master's order, I shall temporarily take charge of the Mohist disciples here.
"The news came from the Qin State. The Qin State has taken the use of fierce fire oil to a higher level. A few years ago, they used the power of fierce fire oil to break open the gates of cities."
"If we attack the city of Ruyin next, we will definitely be indispensable."
Gao Jianli's expression was as cold as before, and he held the Water Cold Sword. Although the Mohist defensive equipment was powerful, the Qin army's siege force was not weak, and even more domineering.
"It doesn't matter. With the newly expanded city, even if the Qin army can break through it, it will consume a lot of their strength."
Big Iron Hammer participated in the city's defense last year and naturally knew the details. It was because he knew that the Qin army had such means that he added an extra layer to the walls of Ruyin City and more than doubled the width of the moat.
Just to stop the Qin army.
Also to buy more time.
"Even so, don't be careless."
"The Qin Kingdom has been out in the east for several years, and the country has been destroyed continuously. This time, the Mohist family personally participated in the battle. Not to mention meritorious service, there must be no faults, and it must not cause trouble to the Chu army."
Fang Geng nodded with tears.
Naturally, I believe in the defensive equipment of the Mohist family.
However, hundreds of spies have said that the Qin State will build a Shaofu and a National Protectorate Academy, and Longxi will supervise the construction. In recent years, a lot of powerful siege equipment has been developed.
Not to mention, there are people who are public losers involved.
What they are good at is attacking. With the support of the Qin State, they are afraid that they will come up with something more powerful than before. That is the focus of their defense.
"What Commander Fang said is true."
"But the city here is not far from the main force of the Chu army. Even if the Qin army attacks, we will have reinforcements very quickly. I am afraid that we will not be able to fully utilize our strength in this battle."
Yuan Haocang nodded in response.
Although they have made so many preparations, they may not be able to use it. It has to be said separately. After all, the defense of Ruyin City is not only done by the Mohists, but also by the Chu army.
There is absolutely no room for error here.
If Ruyin is lost, Chu will have only the Huai River as a natural barrier.
"Do you want the Qin army to besiege this city with hundreds of thousands of troops?"
"Even if we are willing, General Xiang Yan will not be willing."
"Everyone, let's go."
Fang Gengley couldn't help but smile. The Mo family had made so many preparations here. It would be better if it was used, but it would be better if it was not used...even better. There would be no Qin army attacking here, and fewer people would die.
After the words fell, everyone around them had no objections. Immediately, the four commanders each led a team of disciples to their respective destinations to inspect the city defense equipment and city defenses.
…
…
"Guangshan, the five of you are going to check the placed equipment, mainly looking at their mechanism gears to see if there are any cracks or abnormal noises."
"You guys go check the bottom of the city to prevent it from being soaked by water!"
"..."
Nancheng is located.
Commander Lan Feng was leading a group of people to the city tower. After speaking with the Chu army here, he moved casually and stood in the battlements. Looking as far as the eye could see, there was a flat river in the distance. There were no mountains or rivers here.
At most, they are just some low valleys. In early summer, they look lush and green. They are well-dressed and have handsome eyebrows. Only a few sword scars between the eyebrows ruin the overall beauty.
However, it has a different kind of charm.
He quickly assigned the tasks and walked around freely on the tower. On its side, not far away, were Chu troops stationed and patrolling.
Quite strict.
Chirp!
Chirp!
…
"At this time of year, there are a lot more birds."
"Guangshan, let me add some delicious food to you today."
Looking at Guangshan not far away, they were carefully inspecting the defensive equipment. When they heard the sound of birds chirping in their ears, they raised their heads and couldn't help but smile.
"Commander Lanfeng!"
"These birds are so small!"
Guangshan was tapping a tower trebuchet with one hand to see if there was any looseness in the mechanism. Hearing the commander's words, he also raised his head and looked into the void, where five birds no more than the size of a palm were flying at low altitude.
It seemed that... he was just lingering on top of the city tower as if he wasn't ready to leave yet. It would be nice to add some delicious food, but these birds were too small and had no meat at all.
"Haha, small birds have the advantage of being small. If you process them and put them in a frying pan, the taste will be quite good."
On the contrary, an ordinary Mohist disciple next to him was looking forward to it.
"The birds are still big and delicious, with lots of meat."
Guangshan shook his head, the bird was too small and had no meat on its body.
Of course, it would be good if Commander Lanfeng really defeated them.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Lan Feng smiled slightly, leaned over and picked up a stone from the corner of the tower. Looking at the five white-feathered birds still hovering above his head, he directly blessed them with all his strength and waved his palms to greet them.
Bang!
From the reverberation of the sound, it seemed that a stone had hit a bird. As far as I could see, a white-feathered bird fell directly onto the tower.
As for the other four, they were frightened and dispersed.
"Haha, this is just mine."
"Commander Lanfeng, thank you very much."
The Mohist disciples who had been looking forward to those birds trotted over quickly. Looking at the little bird that was still struggling on the tower, he directly pulled a silk thread from its body, wrapped it around it, and put it aside.
Although it's small... but it can be handled a bit, it's still ok.
"It's a pity. It would be better if we defeated them all."
"You can all try it."
Lan Feng sighed.
"Commander, even though these birds are small, they are actually more agile when moving than those larger birds."
When the Mohist disciple heard this, he quickly said.
"You think I don't know?"
"If Commander Zhizhi is here, he will be able to catch them all in one fell swoop with his instant flywheel."
Lan Feng pretended to be displeased and looked at the disciple.
"Hey, Commander, just wait here for a while. Maybe some birds will come."
That disciple had been under Lan Feng for several years, so he didn't know his temperament. He laughed playfully, looked at the bird that was still flapping, and quickly returned to the distance to check the trebuchet.
"You glutton."
Lan Feng shook his head, raised his head and glanced at the void again, and then looked very far away. That was the direction in which the remaining four birds were scattered just now. He didn't know where they were at the moment.
******
Chirp!
Chirp!
…
From far to near, a loud and chaotic sound of birds came, falling from the sky, and stopped at a place where the tents were connected, accompanied by a different sound.
The flock of birds just changed direction and ran to another place.
"Is there any news?"
Wearing a blue robe, she was lightly tied with a bundle of willow-like silk. She had a delicate face, and was as white as snow. Her crisp voice came out, and she could hear the familiar bird-controlling voice of the white phoenix beside her.
I couldn't help but sit up from the top of the tent where I was lying, and looked over.
Wherever he looked, a young man with a handsome face was standing on the top of the tent with one foot and waving his arms. Immediately, four birds fell from the sky.
He has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, long light purple hair blowing in the wind, a long figure that is very eye-catching, and a sky-blue outfit with fine purple lines dotted on it.
On the raised arm, small purple moiré gloves were combed together, and white feather ribbons fluttered, stretching in the wind. At this moment, he was taking something from one of the birds.
It’s a dark gray paper ball!
"What does it say?"
Parrot song is curious.
Since February, the three of them have been taking Mo Yu Qilin and Du Nu to Li Xin's army to serve as guards for the general Zhao Tuo. Naturally, they don't understand the so-called military affairs.
But... they also have their role.
For example, the news in Bai Feng's hands right now.
Taking a step forward and standing next to Bai Feng, Mo Ya was taking Mo Yu Qilin to practice elsewhere, while Poison Girl was training in the army and became a member of the army's traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
Looking at the opened note in Bai Feng's hand, her beautiful eyes fell on it
…
…
"The Mohist giant came out of the city and went north to plot a secret!"
"The Qin army is three-quarters elite, and the Chu army is waiting for an opportunity to move, which may be in danger!"
After a hundred breaths, Zhao Tuo, who was wearing dark black armor, held the thing sent by Bai Feng in his hand and whispered the words on the note. Although they were not many, they... had a lot of meaning.
After muttering something, Zhao Tuo's thick and steady brows frowned.
"The secret plan for going north?"
"What do you two think?"
The two people in front of him were arranged by Wuzhenhou for him. One is his guard, and the other can provide some special information, such as the note in his hand.
It was obtained from the city of Ruyin.
The State of Qin has spies in the city of Ruyin!
Zhao Tuo hesitated for a moment and then stopped thinking about it. At this moment... that was not important. The two things on the note were both of no small importance.
The Mohist giant has a distinguished status. It would be better if he stayed in the city of Ruyin and helped the Chu army to defend the city. But now he resolutely goes north, and his plan must be bigger?
What's going on up north?
At this moment, the vast land north of Huaibei has been controlled by the Qin army, and there is no power of the Chu army.
Could it be the Sanjin Central Plains further north? It is even more impossible. For the Sanjin Central Plains, the Qin State has a heavy army to guard it, and it is impossible for the rangers to be active in it.
Unable to think clearly, he raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him.
