Long Chen said: "We must control the river. If we don't control the river, our troops will not be able to get through, and subsequent supplies will also be threatened."
"To control the river, we must first recapture the Monkey Maze Pass."
After all, we have come back to the original point, and we must recover the monkey puzzle.
The empress also felt a headache. If the monkey mystery was not lost, everything would be easy.
When Zhao Heng saw that the empress was silent, he knew that this matter would not be easy to handle.
"Weichen thinks... we can cross the river first and meet with Li Chengdao before making a decision."
Long Chen looked at the empress and said.
The empress looked at Long Chen, nodded slowly, and said, "Okay."
Yingfeng listened nearby and immediately arranged the boat.
The empress and Long Chen left the palace and followed Zhao Heng towards the riverside.
When Zhang Ke heard that the empress was going to cross the river, he immediately prepared a boat to see her off.
Long Chen said: "General Zhang will be guarding here. Your Majesty and I only need a fast boat."
Zhang Ke said worriedly: "What if we encounter the Nanliang Navy..."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Cheng Li must be guarding the monkeys and not being able to escape. How could there be a navy master?"
Zhang Ke thought about it, knowing that Long Chen was coming, Cheng Li would definitely not dare to leave the city.
When they arrived at the river, they boarded a speedboat and the Empress and Long Chen floated across the river.
After entering Linjiang City, Gongsun Ming led the generals and officials to pay their respects.
Sitting in the Commander's Mansion, the empress was in the chief position, and Long Chen was in the second position.
Gongsun Ming and all the civil and military officials came to pay their respects.
When Linjiang City was rebuilt, Long Chen rebuilt Long Shuai's Mansion according to its original appearance. Looking at Shuai Shuai's Mansion, he remembered those days again.
"Everyone, get up."
The empress raised her hands slightly, and everyone stood up.
Gongsun Ming stepped forward and paid homage: "Your Majesty is here in person, and I will shed tears of gratitude."
Zhao Heng sighed secretly in his heart. Gongsun Ming's words revealed his inner uneasiness.
The empress also heard the meaning and said: "Li Chengdao is already in Wushun City. I am here. You don't need to panic."
Everyone was slightly surprised when they heard that Li Chengdao was in Wushun City.
Everyone then looked at Long Chen and felt relieved again.
With this person here, Li Chengdao will come as soon as he comes.
"The soldiers in the city are ready for battle, and then notify General Li Xiannan that Nanliang is likely to raid Caishi City."
The empress issued the order, and Gongsun Ming immediately sent the order to prepare for war.
Everyone dispersed, and Long Chen slowly entered his room.
Di Luoxi kept the room where Long Chen lived, and Gongsun Ming also kept it there after he found out about it.
Seeing things and missing people, Long Chen thought of the past again.
"Still thinking about the past?"
The empress walked in alone and closed the door.
Long Chen saw that the empress was wearing a bright red phoenix robe and a phoenix crown on her head. She was extremely luxurious.
"The past is like smoke, like fog, like lightning, like the bubbles of dreams."
Long Chen sighed deeply.
I think back then, the Long family's army conquered the south and the north and was invincible. The Long family was called the first family in Nanliang.
Later, in the Battle of Bailang Mountain, one hundred thousand Long family troops were wiped out, and the former glory was wiped out overnight.
Only your own personal experience can understand the ups and downs of life. Some things you think are eternal are actually just reflections in the water.
The empress sat down on Long Chen's bed, glanced at the candlestick on the table, and said: "It is useless to think about the past, it is better to live in the present." 81Zw.????m
"The ghost tribe may invade at any time. We... don't know how long we can survive."
The empress raised her head and looked at Long Chen...
Long Chen looked at the empress and had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
At this moment, there were only Long Chen and the empress.
The empress stood up slowly, took off her phoenix crown and placed it on the table. Her phoenix robe fell down, revealing a pink tube top and pants.
Her hair was untied, her black hair fell down like a waterfall, and the empress slowly lay down...
"Life in this world is like morning dew, why not enjoy yourself in time..."
The empress looked at Long Chen lovingly.
Long Chen looked at the empress...
call...
A breath of hot breath was exhaled from Dantian...
The empress looked at Long Chen like this, and Long Chen looked at the empress...
After looking at each other for a long time, Long Chen finally rushed out of the door.
boom!
The door was closed, and the empress looked at the door and sighed slightly: "If the name is not right, the words will not go smoothly, and if the words are not right, the things will not be accomplished."
After all, it is due to identity.
The empress stood up slowly, picked up the phoenix robe on the ground, and put it on again...
...
Wushun City.
Yu Fuguo hurried into the back hall of the handsome manor, where Li Chengdao was looking at a map with Xuan Jizi.
When Li Chengdao entered Wushun City, Yufu Kingdom followed him.
When marching and fighting, intelligence is indispensable, so it makes sense for Yu Fuguo to follow.
"Your Majesty, we just received news that the Empress and Long Chen arrived in Linjiang City, bringing only Shadow Phoenix and five Shadow Guards with them."
Yu Fuguo knew exactly how many people there were.
Li Chengdao asked: "How many troops and horses are in Linjiang City?"
Yu Fuguo immediately replied: "It is said to be one hundred thousand, but in fact it is only more than eighty thousand, and there is no increase."
The Imperial City Division has long been aware of the situation in Linjiang City.
Li Chengdao looked at Xuan Jizi and said, "What do you think, Taoist Master?"
Xuan Jizi said doubtfully: "With only 80,000 soldiers and horses, the empress really thinks that I, Daliang, dare not attack?"
There are 250,000 elite soldiers in Wushun City, and there are 250,000 elite soldiers in Xianhe City, which is guarded by Hu Feiyang next to it. Xue Ze, Tong Yuan and Liu Feibai also have elite soldiers on the northern front.
If gathered together, there would be almost 800,000.
800,000 against 80,000, even if Long Chen is made of iron, he can still be ground into a needle.
Li Chengdao sneered and said, "That's what I thought when I looked at Long Chen."
Just as he was talking, Zhong Gui came up and said: "Your Majesty, General Hu is here."
Qiu Kuohai and Hu Feiyang hurried in from outside.
Hu Feiyang quickly arrived and bowed: "General Hu Feiyang, please pay homage to your Majesty!"
Li Chengdao pointed to the stone bench next to him and said, "Let's all sit down."
Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai thanked them and then sat carefully next to them.
Li Chengdao said: "I just got the news that the Empress and Long Chen have arrived in Linjiang City. There are only 80,000 soldiers and horses in the city. What do you think?"
Hu Feiyang's face was gloomy. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Are you sure there is no ambush? Long Chen is a thief with many tricks and is best at deceiving. I'm afraid there are more than 80,000 people in Linjiang City."
Yu Fuguo said carefully: "General Hu, I can guarantee that there are only 80,000!"
Hu Feiyang frowned and said: "The Monkey Maze Pass fell into my hands, how dare the empress do this?"
Qiu Kuohai said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is a God-given opportunity. We have ordered Cheng Li Navy to cut off the river. Our army will launch a siege and attack Wushun City and Xianhe City with 500,000 troops. The last general dares to issue a military order!"
Li Chengdao's cultivation level has reached the level of Emperor, and he can fight against the empress and Long Chen. They can attack Linjiang City by relying on their superior strength.
As long as Linjiang City is conquered, Caishi City will be a complete isolated city. The south of the Yangtze River will be pacified, and the power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will return to the north of the Yangtze River.
Li Chengdao looked at Qiu Kuohai, smiled, and said, "Long Chen thinks so too, right?"
Qiu Kuohai was startled. He didn't know what Li Chengdao meant.
Xuan Jizi nodded slightly and said: "Use yourself as bait, mobilize the navy to send troops, and then take advantage of the opportunity to break through the monkey puzzle."
Li Chengdao felt that Long Chen was putting out bait to lure Cheng Li into battle, and then waited for an opportunity to attack Monkey Pass.
Qiu Kuohai suddenly said: "The last general is stupid and not careful."
As a veteran, Qiu Kuohai has already thought of it.
The reason why he took the initiative was because he guessed that Li Chengdao wanted to fight.
The Holy Heart is like this, Qiu Kuohai must say this, this is the way to be an official.
