Two days later, He Lingchuan received news from the south:
Bejia originally wanted to transport troops and grain to the Maohe Plain through Baishawan, but Baishawan refused.
Bega has invaded the Mau River Plain, and wherever their army moves, war will break out.
Baishawan is a free port with hundreds of businesses, and it has always attracted money from all directions. If it agrees to let Bejia use the road, the war will continue to burn to Baishawan!
Panlong City, Yuheng City and Baishawan have cooperated for many years, and the relationship has always been very good. Zhong Shengguang has signed many agreements with them. Yuheng City is close and Beijia is far away. Baishawan still has a prudent attitude towards protecting itself. This is very important to Yuheng City.
It is advantageous. Otherwise, Bega's army will invade from the south, which will cause great trouble.
As long as Baishawan persists until the end of autumn, Bega will not make any more demands for the time being. Because the northwest wind blows on that route from autumn to winter to early spring, it is difficult for ships to travel westward, and there are many storms on the sea.
That afternoon, bad news came:
General Bai Moji was transferred back to the country due to injury, and the Demon Emperor sent another general to the Jinying front line, Qiu Rong of the Qing Mo family.
As soon as He Lingchuan saw the "Green Demon Family", he exclaimed: "Did you send a demon general here this time?"
The Blue Demon Clan is not human, but a Clan of Green Ape demons. Its members are naturally powerful and can tear apart tigers and leopards with their bare hands.
Wen Daolun shook his head: "No, no, Qiu Rong is a human being."
To be precise, Qiu Rong is the adopted human son adopted by the Qing Mo family.
He Lingchuan suddenly realized.
When he traveled to Bejia, he discovered a phenomenon. The powerful local demon clan often carefully selected human orphans and raised them into adults.
This is not because the monsters are particularly kind-hearted, but because humans are more adaptable to social life and can take care of their industries, participate in activities, and strive for military glory. Especially in the court hall, there are countless pits for commercial activities, and the monsters are straightforward.
, most of them don’t understand things clearly, so they have to find someone who knows how to handle things.
There are always some human officials in each vassal demon kingdom or even in the royal court of Lingxu. Behind the generals stands a powerful demon clan. This is also a strange symbiotic relationship unique to Bega.
The monsters use people, and humans take advantage of them.
What really caught He Lingchuan's attention was the last sentence of the message:
Before Qiu Rong officially took office, Qinggong's assistant Lu Wushuang took charge of Jinying's frontline military affairs.
After hearing the information, He Lingchuan took a deep breath: "Lu Wushuang finally got his wish."
After looking at several clues together, he confirmed that Lu Wushuang had no good intentions when he lent Bai Moji the armor.
She had already expected that if Bai Moji used the Whirlwind Armor in the final battle, it would still be difficult to defeat He Lingchuan. Instead, it would anger him and end the procrastination on the Jinying front line.
I don’t know if Bai Moji has realized it now, but even if she has, she can’t sue Lu Wushuang. There is nothing wrong with her behavior itself.
This woman has been very capable since she was young.
He thought for a while, then came to Xin Yi and said, "Mr. Xin, can you help me find Qiu Rong?"
Xin Yi is in Yuheng City, but he believes that Xin Yi can get the information.
Lingshan should be paying attention to this kind of veteran.
Sure enough, Xin Yi replied within a few days.
Qiu Rong is nearly fifty years old. He participated in the Yuan Kingdom War more than twenty years ago and made several military exploits. Later, he was sent by the Demon Emperor to suppress or fight in many countries. He has rich experience in marching, logistics, and leading battles.
This is a veteran of the battlefield.
Where is Qiu Rong now?
The central part of the Demon Kingdom, to the north of the later Chiyan Kingdom, was far away from the Jinzhu front line. Even if he ran all the way, it would take him at least fifty days to reach the Jinzhu front line.
After telling the news, Xin Yi also felt strange: "I thought they had made a mistake. I checked twice in a row. Qiu Rong is indeed in the middle of Bejia. The Maohe Plain. Does the Demon Emperor still want to give it a good fight?"
The Demon Emperor originally dispatched Bai Moji nearby, but it was of no use; he had no choice but to send another one, who would be a good general, but he was separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
"Why don't you want to?" He Lingchuan said with a smile, "There is clearly someone who can be of great use on the Jinying front line, have you forgotten?"
Xin Yi swallowed back the word "who" and then thought: "You mean, Lu Wushuang?"
"That's right. Her talent is far superior to that of Bai Moji. Bai Moji was transferred away from the Jinying front line, and she deserves at least half of the credit." The smile on He Lingchuan's face gradually faded, "You think the Demon Emperor is kidding, but I think there is some way in this."
."
"How to say?"
"While Qiu Rong is on his way, Lu Wushuang is in charge of the Jinying front line. If she can do something good, it will be a military achievement if she reports it to Lingxu City, and no one can compete with her. Even her actions on the Jinying front line in the past month are also
He will not be smeared by Bai Moji, there must be people from Qingong in the army." He Lingchuan pondered, "So, there is a high probability that Qingong is behind this personnel transfer."
Lu Wushuang is already the assistant of the Qing Palace, and his position is not low. He is also the next demon emperor and the best friend of the current prince. If he accumulates a few more solid military exploits, he will probably rise to the top and be out of control.
These fifty days may have been specially reserved for her.
Thinking back, why did the Demon Emperor send her to supervise the Silla army? Wasn't it just to let her come to the Jinying front line to familiarize herself with the battle situation? If Bai Moji failed in the battle or encountered an accident, she could take over on the spot, avoiding the trouble of mobilization.
However, she was not qualified enough to lead an army, so she could only serve as a "temporary substitute" to try her hand before a regular general like Qiu Rong could take office.
The time left for her was nearly two months, which was not short. After all, Panlong City had not officially started war against the northwest front, and the original general Bai Moji had only stayed on the front for more than twenty days.
"Before Qiu Rong arrives, she will perform well." Xin Yi understood, "No wonder you said that the next battle will be more and more difficult to fight."
"Do you want to meet her on the battlefield?"
"Me?" Xin Yi was startled and pointed at himself, but then he said, "Okay!"
He Lingchuan always praised Lu Wushuang in front of him, but he was a little unconvinced because he didn't see this little girl named Lu doing anything big.
He remembered something again: "By the way, I also got an inside message, I don't know whether it's true or not: I heard that Qianzhaoyuan intends to take over Bai Moji. Originally, after he fought on the Jinying front line, he might be promoted.
But now—it’s hard to say.”
Qianzhao Yuan was one of the high-level military offices in Lingxu City at this time. Its main function was to provide military support to the royal court and compile textbooks for various military academies. However, it was canceled in later generations.
Hearing this, He Lingchuan let out a long sigh: "No wonder."
That's just an idle job, a good place to put idle people.
If the news is true and Bai Moji has already found his next employer, then everything has been planned before and after the Jinying battle. As long as he achieves some results, he can take up his new position when he returns to Lingxu City.
Exterior gold plating has always been Bega's common method.
