Chapter 446

"How many people are missing?" Zhuge Yan frowned slightly. Now there are 100000 troops stationed in Longpan mountain and Huju mountain, and few of them will not attract people's attention. However, Lu said that it is not low-level sergeants but very important people who are few now.

Zhuge Yan couldn't help but look at Gu Qingcheng. Seeing that there was no unexpected expression on her face, it was obvious that he knew about it. Suddenly, Zhuge Yan's heart brightened. He looked up at Lu Que and asked, "are you talking about Princess Tianyang?"

Zhuge Yan suddenly thought that he had not seen Yu Chuxin, the princess of Tianyang, for some time. Before that, he always thought that Lu que had asked Yu Chuxin to sit in Huju mountain. After all, in Longpan mountain, although yuxiayi, the leader of Jiuyao Xingzong, had gone to zhennanguan, there were also Xiaobai, the spirit of Lu Shu, and there were not only the army on the other side of Huju mountain, But there is no real strong man. Now it seems that this is not the case.

"It's true that his highness Tianyang left at the same time as Master Yu. You don't know, it's just because people in Longpan mountain think that his highness is in Huju mountain, while people in Huju mountain think that he is in Longpan mountain." Gu Qingcheng nodded and said, obviously she knew about it, but Zhuge Yan didn't know about it because there were so many chores in the army that Lu que didn't tell him.

"But there's no news from Shen Shuai that Princess Tianyang has arrived at zhennanguan." Zhuge Yan thought and asked.

"That's because the seventh aunt didn't take the road of zhennanguan." Lu said.

It is well known that the mountain stretches for thousands of miles. The west side of the mountain is connected with the bugui mountain, and the east side goes straight to the sea, which almost completely separates the north and south of the mountain. Only zhennanguan can pass through the north and south, which is the natural moat. But there is no absolute, even if the mountains are unique, there must be mountain paths. This kind of road is mostly trampled by beasts in the mountains. Although it can't let the army pass, even ordinary people can't walk, it's nothing for Yu Chuxin, the princess of Tianyang.

Moreover, Yu Chuxin is the leader of the Dark Phoenix. He has traveled between Daqian, Tianxing and Nanli for countless times, but zhennanguan has no idea. He must know how to cross the Lingshan mountains, which is known as the continental graben.

Zhuge Yan understood the meaning of Lu que after a little thought, but he was still worried and said, "it's said that there are many beasts in Lingshan that never come out of the mountain. It's said that there are fierce beasts and spirit beasts swimming in the mountains. Is it really OK for Princess Tianyang to go alone?"

Gu Qingcheng waved his hand and said, "don't worry about that. His highness Tianyang is the master of Dark Phoenix. Her cultivation is close to the human realm. Ordinary fierce beasts can't threaten her at all. What's more, Dark Phoenix's skill is very sensitive to killing opportunities. Even if the earth level beasts block her way, she can avoid it ahead of time."

"And seven aunt is not alone on the road, nine Yao star Zong Shang light dust with her side." Lu also added.

"Business light dust?" Zhuge Yan was stunned when he heard that Shang Qingchen was the chief of Fengming academy before Lu que. She was able to suppress Gu Qianxue and Yun Xiansi as a woman, so she was re elected as the chief. This shows how amazing Shang Qingchen's talent is. And Shang Qingchen can make yuxiayi, the leader of Jiuyao Xingzong, a disciple. As the next leader of Xingzong, she can cultivate her martial arts.

Zhuge Yan understood that Lu que asked Shang Qingchen to follow Yu Chuxin, Princess of Tianyang. On the one hand, Shang Qingchen was the top group of young people in the cultivation of martial arts. On the other hand, he used her wisdom. In the nine university palaces, anyone who can suppress all the students to be re elected as the chief is not an ordinary person. Such a person has left a heavy mark of his own in history.

Yu Chuxin and Shang Qingchen are princess Daqian, who travel in the river and lake to create Dark Phoenix. They are very familiar with the means of the river and lake. One is one of the most outstanding students in Fengming Academy. At the time of graduation, both the internal and external pavilions are scrambling for important figures. The two just form a kind of complementary.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Yan suddenly moved his heart, took a deep look at Lu Que and said, "I'm afraid it's not just like this."

Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng look at each other. They smile at the same time, but they don't speak.

After the rebellion on the eve of the moon, the leader of the eight divisions of the Dark Phoenix lost five of them, and the eight divisions of the Dark Phoenix also suffered heavy losses. As the leader of the Dark Phoenix, Yu Chuxin, the princess of Tianyang, returned to Daqian, but no one knew how much she had. You should know that within 20 years of her rise, she can compete with CIDU and become a power of killing Taoism that makes the world shudder. Besides, there are people like Emperor Ming who control her behind her back. Her power is definitely not just revealed.

And in the war of Tianxing, the thirty-six Fuxing envoys, no matter the emperor or the princess, didn't come out from Yu Chuxin. Now there is a dark Phoenix in Tianxing, and there is a dark Phoenix led by Lin Mingxuan in Ning'an county. When Lu que discussed this matter with Yu Chuxin, Princess of Tianyang, she agreed. Obviously, she still has the power of Dark Phoenix in Daqian.

Such a huge power is nothing to Da Qian, but it's still very frightening, because no one knows whether it's all the cards of dark Huang, and whether dark Huang has any other potential power after that, so Lu que wants to use this to test dark Huang's power.

Lu que doesn't want to find out all the forces of dark Huang. Although dark Huang once assassinated him, he didn't think about what to do with the force that only belongs to Princess Tianyang. In his opinion, it's not a good thing to have such a secret force that drifts away from the court. Moreover, the military use of the martial arts experts gathered by dark Huang's assassination is very important, Sometimes it's better than the Department of military intelligence and the Department of foreign affairs.

Now Lu que is the commander-in-chief of Southern Xinjiang. At least in the land of Southern Xinjiang, he can give dark Huang a stable space for development. As for whether this kind of secret power, which is not controlled by the imperial court, will pose a threat to Da Qian, it is not Lu Que's consideration. It is the issue that the emperor and the cabinet need to consider. In other words, Lu que wants to see the real strength of Dark Phoenix, and then let the Southern Army cooperate with him, because in this way, whether he leads the army to attack Nanli or goes north to sweep the grassland after the war, he will have the first chance in layout because of dark Huang's existence.

"If there are other hidden people in Daqian, we really don't have to worry about the four families that are making trouble in Qingquan city." Zhuge Yan immediately understood Lu Que's meaning and said with a smile.

The eight tribes of Dark Phoenix were damaged during the lunar night chaos, and the rest are now distributed in the two directions of Tianxing and Nanli. In this case, the elite foundation that Yu Chuxin still left in Daqian must be. The world-famous assassin is no worse at concealment and tracking than the shadow guard of the Royal three guards, and even better at professional level. If the people of the assassin lose Lian, Bian, Zeng and Xiang, they are not worthy to stand side by side with the assassin.

As for the future, Zhuge Yan didn't think much about it, because no matter how powerful amhuang was, it would not affect the imperial court, nor would it affect the military. What's more, the people who control amhuang now are princess Daqian and Duke Daqian. The worried people in the imperial court may worry, but they don't have to worry too much.

At the same time, in the junshui River 400 miles southwest of Qingquan City, a fleet of more than a dozen wooden boats is going upstream. There is no identification mark on the mast of the fleet except the sails. This is the escape fleet of Lian, Bian, Zeng and Xiang.

After they fled to the river port of junshui County, they found more than ten merchant ships which were used to transport the migrating people. Now they are temporarily docked in the river port of junshui County, which makes the four families who have been worried that Bai Yi will send cavalry to catch up with them overjoyed. They can't help changing the original plan from land to water.

"Brother Lian, do you think Bai Yi will find out if we get off the horse and take the boat and send Qingqi to catch up with us?" The owner of the Zeng family looked at the speed that it was not too fast because it was going upstream. He asked with some worry.

"We have removed the traces of dredging river port before, which should be able to delay for some time." Looking at the river, the owner of Lian family stretched out two fingers and confidently said, "in two days, we only need two days. As long as we move forward for another two days, we can abandon the boat and ride on the horse. By that time, we will be on the South Bank of xunshui. No matter how fast the speed of light riding and fighting animals is, we will not be able to catch up with us."

"That's good. Even brother, you have a good plan." The owner of the Zeng family felt relieved and said something flattering.

In addition to the Qingquan rebellion, the loss of Lian, Bian, Zeng and Xiang was heavy. No matter the tenants who followed the four families for many years, or the soldiers they secretly raised, or even the wealth accumulated by the four families for generations, they all lost in Qingquan city. Now the only thing that the four families can rely on is their own children and martial arts experts. Undoubtedly, among the four families, Lian family is the most powerful.

Now we are all bereaved dogs, or we can help each other in the same boat. However, if we get to a safe place, who is not sure whether other people will have the wrong idea and intend to annex other families to restore their strength? Although the words of the Zeng family just now seem to be flattering, they are not a kind of temptation.

The head of Lian's family took a light look at the head of Zeng's family. How could he not see the intention of the head of Zeng's family when he was so old and refined? When he thought of this time, the four families were still on guard against each other, even fighting with each other. When he thought about the heavy losses of his family, his foundation for hundreds of years was almost completely lost. The head of Lian's family was just a burst of frustration.

After a long silence, even the owner said, "when we cross the mountains and reach the Shahai, let's separate our four families. Although the thirty-six states of Shahai are the vassal states of Daqian, they are not the land ruled by Daqian after all. We can cultivate and live there."

After hearing this, the owner of the Zeng family was very happy, and then moved in his heart. He hesitated and asked, "after all, we are foreigners. Although we had some roots in the Shahai countries before, there are big cadres. With the strong power of big cadres over the vassal countries, can the Shahai countries really protect us? If our four families are separated, will they be broken down by each other? "

"That's why I want our four families to separate." The old man, surnamed Lian, replied, "the thirty-six states of Shahai are small. Among them, the land is no more than one city, the soldiers are no more than a thousand, and the people are no more than tens of thousands. With the strength of each of our four families, we can easily overthrow a small country. At that time, we can use the strength of one country to recover our losses, and then move westward and leave the sphere of influence of Daqian."

"Is that the only way?" There was a twinkle of uneasiness on the head of the Zeng family. Bai Yi came so fast that all their original plans were in vain. They had to cut off their strong men. Only in this way could they save the family's foundation and escape from Qingquan city. How could he be willing to lose the business of more than ten generations.

"It's fate. If we lose, we'll recognize that as long as we don't lose all our capital, we'll be able to turn it over." The head of Lian's family had an unnatural flush on his face and said. If the Zeng family is not reconciled, how can they be reconciled with their family? We should know that their family is not one of the top ten families in Daqian, but it is also the largest family in the south. This time, their loss to their family is far more than that of the other three families.

"Alas ~" the owner of the Zeng family sighed and asked again, "brother Lian, when we get to the sand sea, there is yellow sand blocking us. Why do we continue to move westward?"

In fact, Lian's family is trying to subvert the small country in Shahai, but Zeng's family is not like this. Only by subverting a city in Shahai, can the family recover its strength as soon as possible and regain a stable foundation. However, he never thought that he would continue to move westward.

The head of Lian's family sighed and said, "although I don't want to admit that Lu Chun, the Duke of Wei, was a famous commander in suppressing an era, his son Lu que was even more outstanding than LAN, and Bai Yi, the Marquis of Wu'an, was also a famous general in the world. As long as Daqian won the battle of zhennanguan, no country in the world could threaten Daqian's safety, even the Three Kingdoms on the grassland. We originally intended to take advantage of the tide of beasts to get chestnuts from the fire. Now that we have lost, we have to go far away, and the farther the better. Shahai is just a temporary post station, but it is not the end. "

"Brother Lian, do you mean that Da Qian might use his army against Shahai?" The owner of the Zeng family naturally heard the meaning of the old man's words. He was surprised and asked.

Looking at the waves generated by the bow of the boat, even the owner said, "maybe not before. After all, the sand sea is dispensable for Daqian, and there is no benefit. But since we want to overthrow several small countries and restore our strength, we can't find out with the power of Daqian's foreign affairs department. Once Daqian comes from the battle of Southern Xinjiang, We will surely send troops to the sand sea to exterminate us. You and I both know the truth of exterminating the grass roots. How can the Emperor Yu Yuanxu not understand it? "

"This ~" the owner of the Zeng family stopped slightly, and then nodded his head, because he knew that the owner of the Lian family was right. If he wanted to completely preserve the family, he had to leave Daqian's sphere of influence. Although there was a long way to go, he could not stop Daqian's army.
