The holy beast stood next to the ice cave, and a fish was placed beside it, which had been frozen into ice.
"Someone tipped off the news."
The holy beast picked up the frozen fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"You doubt me?"
Yuying heard this and said a little aggrievedly.
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "How could it be possible? You have been with us all the time, how could you have time to inform us?"
"Maybe they found the trace and ran away first."
Gan Zhen checked all the igloos, and there were some discarded things inside, but he couldn't find any ghosts.
Mo Lin said: "It seemed like he was walking in a hurry. I don't know what happened."
Yu Wenkai asked: "Can you see where you are going?"
Mo Lin looked to the east and said, "Going to the east, Lao Gan went to check for footprints."
Soon, Gan Xin came back with a pipe in his mouth and said, "They are going to Moon City."
Yuying said in surprise: "Going to Moon City? Why are you going to Moon City?"
Yuecheng is already deserted, and the ghost tribe is rushing to Yuecheng again. This is so strange.
"Yuelang has returned to Yuecheng. He is calling your people to return. There is also Li Chengdao. He must have returned to Yuecheng as well."
Gan Xing blew out a puff of smoke. He was almost out of tobacco. He was very anxious and cherished every puff of smoke.
Yu Wenkai grinned, patted Yu Ying's shoulder, and said: "The opportunity has come. Yue Lang has returned to Yue City again, and your tribe has gathered in Yue City again. You can become the king."
Yuying said in surprise: "Old general, don't lie to me."
Yu Wenkai chuckled and said, "You little kid, I'm so old, what can I do to you?"
"Li Chengdao and Yue Lang returned to Yuecheng, and your tribe gathered together again. When the time comes, you follow us, and your tribe will join you."
Yuying said happily: "Thank you, old general. As long as I become king, I will cease the war immediately and help you deal with Li Chengdao."
Yu Ying is not stupid, but she has paid too much. She can only follow Yu Wenkai, so she can only believe in Yu Wenkai's words.
When cooperating or negotiating with others, you must not rely entirely on the other party's conditions, otherwise, even if the other party gives you shit, you will have to admit it.
"So, you want to attack Moon City now?" > The holy beast swallowed the ice fish and sneered coldly.
Yu Wenkai spat: "You are a fool, I am not stupid, Yuecheng has Li Chengdao and the demon fetus in charge, if you have the ability, go ahead!"
The holy beast snorted coldly and was too lazy to argue with Yu Wenkai.
Gan Zhen felt strange and said: "Aren't Li Chengdao and Yue Lang at the mountain pass? Were they defeated by King Wu?"
Gan Xin said: "How could Li Chengdao block King Wu? It will be a matter of time to break through the canyon."
"It seems that King Wu has broken through the canyon and the army has entered the ice field. We don't have to worry. We can send people to investigate the situation and wait for the arrival of King Wu's army, and then attack Moon City together."
Mo Lin echoed: "I agree with Lao Gan's guess. I sent people to investigate the situation and wait for King Wu's army."
Yu Wenkai nodded and said, "Yang Hu, send someone to investigate and head east."
The ghost tribe here has left, and the ghost tribe in other places must have left as well, so guerrilla warfare has lost its meaning.
The holy beast followed Yu Wenkai and headed east.
.
West of the mountain pass camp.
The Xichang spy wore ice skates under his feet and held two poles in his hands, gliding quickly on the snow.
There is something like a sail on everyone's back, which opens very fast when the wind is blowing.
"Look over there!"
The spy suddenly stopped and hid behind a small iceberg.
The light from the ice sheet does not come from above but is reflected from the sea, making it easy to spot when walking on the ice.
So the spies can hide their traces perfectly by hiding behind the iceberg.
"Ghost soldiers? Scouts?"
The spies behind him looked curiously at the dozen ghost soldiers in the distance, wondering whether they were scattered ghost soldiers or sent out scouts.
"That's not right. The ghost tribe is shrinking to the north. Why would they send out scouts?"
Scouts are vanguard spies sent out during a march, or to keep watch around a camp.
The ghost clan has shrunk to Moon City and sent envoys to surrender. It is strange to send scouts at this time.
Strange.
"Catch him alive and you will find out as soon as you ask."
The spy looked across the street and saw that there were not many people there.
"Catch them alive? There are so many of them. If there are helpers nearby, we will be the ones who die."
"Let's see what happens again, don't worry."
The spy lurked behind the iceberg, took out the dried meat from his arms, and observed quietly. .??.
.
Mountain pass camp.
All fifty wooden boats have entered, all baggage has been unloaded, and Leihuo Camp is replacing the base of the artillery.
In the past, artillery was mounted on wheels to facilitate its deployment.
When we arrived at the ice field, we switched to a sled-like road for easier gliding.
After replenishing weapons, explosives and food, Long Chen organized his army and planned to head north tomorrow.
"There is no sun or moon rising and setting in the ice fields to the north, so it is difficult to tell the difference between day and night. You should keep an eye on the hourglass and count the time to march and rest."
Long Chen very solemnly ordered an official responsible for recording time.
Everyone's feelings are different. You cannot judge the passage of time based on your feelings alone. You need a scale calculation so that you can rest during the march.
"Don't worry, King Wu, I will definitely remember the time."
Long Chen nodded and walked to Thunder Fire Camp again.
"Meet King Wu."
When Mei Yu saw Long Chen, she immediately bowed to him.
"Meet King Wu."
The soldiers of Leihuo Camp paid homage to him one after another.
"Don't be polite. We will set off to the north tomorrow. You must pay special attention to keeping warm and keeping out the cold. Use match ropes to light the fire without flint. Your fingers must not be exposed. Your face must be covered, and your nose and ears must not be exposed."
Long Chen pulled Mei Yu's towel and covered Mei Yu's neck.
The ice field is too cold. These female soldiers from Thunder Fire Camp are not half-ghosts, so they are prone to frostbite.
Originally, they were not planned to participate in this battle, but they insisted that they must come.
"Remember, our clothes are all specially made and very warm."
Meiyu's hat is different and has a special shape.
Because their faces were covered, everyone's hat was worn for identification purposes. no the same.
"good."
Long Chen walked around the Leihuo Camp and then returned to the empress's igloo. Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi surrounded the empress and looked at the map. Yan Shou pointed at the map and said: "It's thirteen miles from here to the north of Moon City.
A day's journey, this is the time we have to march."
"Li Chengdao built fortifications on the south, east and west sides of Moon City, but these fortifications are fake. The real trap is under the ice."
"As long as we enter here, they will collapse the ice from under the water and let our army sink to the bottom of the sea."
Yan Shou marked the traps he knew.
The empress raised her head and saw Long Chen coming in, and said, "Come and see, this is what Yan Shou marked."
Yan Shou stood up and paid homage: "I will finally pay my respects to King Wu."
Long Chen nodded and walked over to look at the map.
As a surrendered general, Yan Shou was eager to show his loyalty and told him everything he knew.
"So many traps?"
Long Chen frowned, looking very embarrassed.
Yan Shou said: "The ghost clan has no confidence in fighting King Wu and can only rely on traps like this."
Long Chen nodded and said: "Fortunately you said so, otherwise we would have suffered heavy losses."
Yan Shou was overjoyed and said: "Thank you very much King Wu for your approval. I will only do my little bit."
Long Chen looked at the map carefully again and said: "In this way, if we circle around from the east and then attack from the north, we can avoid the trap and catch them by surprise!"
The empress thought for a while and said: "That's okay. In this way, we can bypass the ghost clan and catch them off guard."
Yan Shou nodded and said: "King Wu, your sage is wise. There are no traps in the north, so it's time to make a surprise attack."
The empress said: "Okay, let me tell you this first. The details can only be decided upon arriving at Moon City."
Yan Shou nodded and agreed with the empress.
On the battlefield, decisions are made at the last moment and cannot be completely decided in advance.
"Okay, let's go back and rest. We'll set off tomorrow!"
Yan Shou held up his hand and exited the igloo with Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi, leaving Long Chen inside.
