The first thousand three hundred and ninety-nine chapters come to Shushan again
"There are more than 10,000 disciples gathered by farmers in the Ru River Valley."
"Xiang Liang led an army of 100,000 to appear in the south of Shangcai!"
"Where did he get an army of 100,000 people?"
After a rapid march, the 40,000 cavalry led by Zhou Qing were no more than a hundred and fifty miles away from Runan, surrounded by scattered people and scattered Qin army detachments.
After gathering all kinds of information, Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows.
I had noticed the strange movement in the Ru River Valley before.
But where did Xiang Liang's 100,000 troops come from?
Sure enough, Xiang Yan's main force, secret guards, Ying Ge and others would be aware that a hundred thousand troops is not a small number.
Now, he suddenly appeared in the south of Shangcai and in the north of Huaibei, which had been captured by Li Xin's army, without any notice?
"Sir, are they mobilized from Huainan?"
Mo Crow was standing beside him, and upon hearing this, his expression suddenly changed.
Xiang Liang's army of 100,000... was definitely not separated from Xiang Yan's main force. At this moment, Xiang Yan's main four armies, plus the soldiers mobilized from Huainan, already exceeded 300,000.
No matter what, Xiang Yan will station a considerable force in Ruyin, otherwise... the main force will be empty, and Li Xin will definitely lead his army across the Huai River.
Xiang Yan is cautious in his march and will not take this risk!
The only possibility is that Chu State has increased its troops in Huainan!
"Besides this possibility, I can't think of any other possibility."
"Li Xin... was careless in his march. The rear was empty. Xiang Liang's army of 100,000 detoured, as if entering an uninhabited country, and merged into the strength that Lord Changping could mobilize at this moment."
"He currently has 150,000 troops in his hands. Although the front is not strong, the number is sufficient. He can go south to pacify Yu and cooperate with Xiang Yan to encircle Mengwu and Li Xin."
"It's really not a good result."
"But...for the past few months, the Chu State has mobilized 200,000 troops from Huainan. Unless all of them are garrison troops, otherwise...the old clans in Dongting are willing to contribute."
"It's interesting, Mo Ya. Send an order to Nanjun to quickly investigate the remaining strength of the old clan in Dongting. As expected, there is a shortage. Directly the navy will pass through Dongting and the infantry will pass through Yunmeng!"
The 40,000-strong army stopped by a stream for a brief rest. Zhou Qing nodded to Mo Ya. Mo Ya's idea was also his own.
It is impossible for Xiang Liang's 100,000 troops to be separated from Xiang Yan's main force.
They can only be transferred from Huainan.
But... due to the strong strength of the Zhuang clan in the south of the Yangtze River, the King of Chu should have left a considerable number of troops behind. In this way, the source range of the 100,000 soldiers was much smaller.
Old family!
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, they can really take the lead.
The deployment of one hundred thousand soldiers is also a huge loss for those old families. If it is really the old families who mobilized them, then...the strength of the old families in Dongting and Yunmeng Daze is definitely not enough.
It’s worthy of Ye Teng’s march!
"Yes, sir!"
Mo Ya didn't hesitate. He got the paper and pen from Sima who was accompanying the army, wrote the document, handed it to Wu Zhenhou to read, stamped it, and hundreds of birds flew into the sky.
…
…
One day later.
Zhou Qing led his 40,000 men and horses into the Rushui River Valley. Judging from the information obtained by the scouts, there were indeed a large number of traces left deep in the jungle.
There is no one there now.
"grown ups!"
"General Li Xin and their rear food routes have been cut off. Counting the time, Lord Changping and Xiang Liang have already reached Pingyu and settled in the county."
The accompanying general is giving orders to the entire army to reorganize and march to Pingyu tomorrow.
Mo Crow's figure crossed from a distance, and the stream of light flickered, and he appeared beside Zhou Qing. He bowed his hand and everything seemed to go as expected.
"Where's the black jade unicorn?"
Zhou Qing was sitting quietly under the tree. Previously, the black jade unicorn asked him to take the first step and penetrate into Xiang Liang's army to use it.
I agreed and took action myself, sealing several self-defense powers on his body. With the current level of the "Shadowless Sutra", he was barely able to do anything.
Mo Ya personally took him across Ru River and went straight to Pingyu.
"Tonight, he can join Xiang Liang's army."
Hearing this, Mo Crow bowed.
What I know about Mo Yu Qilin's identity is that he is a Baiyue relative of Yan Lingji beside you. He is his younger brother and can be considered an important person.
In the past few years, I have been familiar with various Xia affairs and experienced various things under my own hands. Although my cultivation level is not high, it is very strange, especially... the ability to change.
If he continues to practice, he may be the first person in Zhuxia.
Because...as long as he blends in with the crowd, you will never know his true identity, unless his cultivation reaches the Mysterious Entrance level as mentioned by adults, or even higher.
"Um?"
"Yingge and the others have sent a message."
Zhou Qing nodded. The black jade unicorn has the power he left behind, and nothing will happen. With its power, it can enter Xiang Liang's army like water entering the sea.
Looking at the almost tidied up cavalry not far away, Zhou Qing stood up from under the tree. Suddenly, with a spiritual sense, he looked towards a certain place in the void in front of him.
There..., there flew a bird that made a strange sound. To other people, it sounded like the sound of other birds.
But... I am very familiar with this tone.
Ink Crow also sensed it, put his finger in his mouth, and a loud and rapid sound came out. The next moment... those birds lingering in the void swooped down.
Regarding Bai Niao's method, Zhou Qing felt that Ye Mu was quite capable back then.
Some are like the methods of taming animals passed down from ancient times, but they are much more sophisticated. No matter where Mo Crow is, those birds can always find his traces.
Zhou Qing was very impressed.
Unfortunately, this method cannot be promoted. According to what Mo Ya said, there were only a few Bird Commanders among the Hundred Birds who could fully master these methods.
The remaining members can only passively accept messages from Bai Niao.
You can give it a try by practicing vigorously in a small area.
Mo Crow took a note from the bird and handed it to Zhou Qing with both hands.
"Take a look."
Zhou Qing waved his hand, even if he didn't look, he could guess a rough idea.
"Yes, sir!"
"General Li Xin leads the army to attack Ruyin. In less than two hours, we will reach the lower city!"
"The street fighting in the city lasted for three hours. Due to the urgent report from the city father, Xi County, General Li Xin ordered to destroy all the city defenses in Ruyin and led his troops back to defend."
"This is the news at Youshi yesterday. It has been a day and a night."
"There should be news next!"
Mo Ya nodded, and then his eyes fell on the piece of paper in his hand. There was only one piece of information on it, which was yesterday's battle in Ruyin.
In the Battle of Ruyin, General Li Xin won a great victory.
Xiang Yan's main force made a roundabout way to outflank the city father, sleeping in the key areas of the county, Changping Jun, Xiang Liang encircling Pingyu, and meeting at the same place... This... is similar to what the adults said.
"Yesterday's Youshi?"
"I wonder what the situation is like in Pingyu and other places now?"
"Let's go."
Regarding the defense of Ruyin City, Yingge had previously heard that since last year, people from hundreds of families led by the Mohist family had entered.
In particular, many dignitaries from the government city came to build defensive equipment in Ruyin City.
The twelve tools of the ink master!
There are fragments of the scrolls of General Shaofu, which were left by the Mohists who entered the Qin Dynasty more than a hundred years ago. Zhou Qing once took a look at them, and they are all a bit old.
For more than a hundred years, wars have occurred frequently in the Xia Dynasty, and improvements in siege and defense equipment are constantly occurring in various countries, especially large-scale equipment.
I don’t know how to improve the government city?
No surprise, even if there are changes, the origin of the twelve weapons has not changed, and the power continues to be blessed, it will not be earth-shaking. Li Xin captured Ruyin in less than two hours.
...it's still a little slow.
After saying that, he walked towards the horse that had finished eating not far away. Li Xin returned to Fangchengfu and other places at Youshi yesterday. I don't know when Meng Tian will arrive with his troops.
As for the 40,000 troops under his command, they can reach Pingyu tomorrow!

"Xue'er, you have been to Shushan with your senior brother before, right?"
From Nanjun to the west, march all the way.
At the beginning of noon, summer had already arrived. Zhou Qing stayed in Jiangling, Nanjun, and took Xiaomeng and Xueji to Shushan, Shujun.
This time I just took a look at Yu Yuan's seal. If there is nothing to worry about, I will return directly.
Therefore, riding on the wind and stepping in the sky will naturally be fine with Zhou Qing and Xueer's cultivation level, but... Xiaomeng's current cultivation level is perfect.
It's still barely holding on, it's just a little slower at most.
Looking down, climbing a hundred feet high to brave the wind, it is quite like the feeling of the sages of the Tianzong in those days. Everything is so small when seen deep in the eyes.
Everything is so small!
But at the same time, the vast void seemed even more vast.
It really is the Tao that transforms yin and yang.
Along the way, the little girl kept talking, which made Zhou Qing sigh. The elegant and calm girl before had completely disappeared.
"Back then, I accompanied you to attack Shushan and stayed there for a while."
"Shu Mountain still had a barrier seal at the beginning, but now it doesn't."
Wearing a sapphire blue icy skirt and blouse, her snowy hair was blowing in the wind. After taking Lotus Flower Pill, her already stunning beauty became even more otherworldly.
The Xuan Gong is running like a thousand paths of ice, and its breath is like the goddess Zhuangzi said in the beginning.
The blue light surges under the feet, the spirit merges with the heaven and the earth, and the wind is free and easy. In the summer, only at the level of the mysterious entrance can the world be transformed and truly ride on the wind.
This feels really good.
Facing Xiaomeng's curious gaze, he smiled calmly and said the same thing.
"There are records in the Yin Yang family's classics that the inheritance of Shushan can be traced back to ancient times. Isn't there a strong Taoist?"
I remember that when I stayed at the Yin-Yang Family with my senior brother, I saw corresponding records in the Yin-Yang Family’s secret collection. The people there in Shushan were ordered by the ancient Emperor.
Moreover, the leader of Shu Mountain is still a descendant of the ancient Emperor Xuanyuan, and his inheritance should be strong, but since they came down from the mountain, there has been almost no news about them.
"No."
"Their inheritance originates from ancient times, and they have the existence of barriers. Their people rarely go out, and they rarely have contact with other countries and families."
"If someone from the clan goes out, they still show up at Qinian Palace and assassinate the king, causing great disaster."
"The strongest Taoist has the ability to transform into a god. He has no resistance in front of adults. There are inherited classics from Shushan in Xianyang. If you are interested, Xiaomeng, you can see them later."
