"General, something happened!" Lieutenant General Guo, who was dressed in armor, shouted and trotted this way from that far away. The urgent news came, making Ling Xiyue swallow the words that came to her lips, and then frowned and looked at him,
"What's wrong? You're in a panic."
If it were a trivial matter, it wouldn't make Vice General Guo so urgent.
Ling Lang's eyes instantly became fierce, and he moved to Ling Xiyue's side, assuming a defensive posture.
When Vice General Guo saw the people next to Zhan Yunyang, he was excited and quickly knelt down on one knee, "Empress!"
"What happened?" Ling Xiyue swept her sleeves and raised her hand to signal him to get up. She lowered her eyebrows and said, "Don't be anxious. Let's talk calmly."
Vice General Guo, still panting for breath, hurriedly replied, "There was a fire in the grain and grass warehouse in the west. It burned in several places. The fire was so fast and violent that it was uncontrollable. It was extinguished here and ignited again in that place."
Vice General Guo's voice was so urgent that his neck turned red.
"What?" Zhan Yunying's eyebrows suddenly turned cold. As he spoke, he walked over quickly, "How could this happen?"
The granary in the western part of the Tianlin garrison stores two-thirds of the entire army's grain and grass. Once it is destroyed, it will have a fatal blow to the entire morale. No matter how powerful the army is, without the support of grain, grass and armaments, it is just a paper tiger!
The importance of food and grass to the army is self-evident.
Therefore, the granary is also one of the most heavily guarded locations in the military. Under such tight security, someone can come and go freely without being caught. How terrible is this?
If the thief is not caught in time, the situation of the entire army will be in danger.
Vice General Guo followed closely behind Zhan Yunyang, trotting quickly, "The thief who set the fire was obviously still hiding in the military camp, but he was so elusive that the soldiers couldn't even see him, let alone catch him. I don't know what the hell he was. If
If we can’t catch anyone anymore, our army’s food and grass in the west will be completely gone!”
Ling Xiyue frowned secretly and touched her chin. All she was thinking about was, who would dare to go to Tianlin Station to set fire? Let alone ordinary people, even Xiling Mo Qian himself would not be able to come and go freely without leaving any trace.
The next half trace.xdw8
"Don't worry." Zhan Yunyang's face was serious, but he was also very calm. He gave Vice General Guo a don't panic look, "Does the Emperor know?"
"The incident happened so suddenly that we didn't even have time to report it to the Emperor." Vice General Guo shook his head, "General, go take a look first."
Everyone knows that in a battle, the effect of burning down a granary is immediate. However, there are not many people in the world who can come and go freely among thousands of troops on guard.
When Tianlin faced off against Qianyue Shenguo, it was a good example.
In the battle of Yueya City, it was because Ling Xiyue infiltrated the Moon God Army and set fire to their supplies and equipment, causing chaos in the other side's camp. Without follow-up support, morale plummeted, which allowed Tianlin's army to attack Yueya City in one go.
That life-and-death turning battle also brought the Moon God Kingdom to its lowest point.
Nowadays, someone has followed the same method and sneaked past the even more heavily guarded Shenyu Army. It is indeed no small matter!
"Xi Yue, please go back to the emperor quickly, and also tell the emperor, don't go there. I'll go check on the situation first when I hear the news." Zhan Yunyang followed Vice General Guo and turned around to speak to Ling Xiyue.
If there really was a powerful assassin, and it was in such a chaotic situation, it would be very dangerous. Zhan Yunyang certainly didn't want Ling Xiyue to be in danger.
"Wait a minute, did you just say Western Granary?" Ling Xiyue suddenly thought of something and took a few steps to catch up.
Vice General Guo said calmly, "Yes, ma'am."
"Damn it!" Ling Xiyue's face turned cold and she flew out.
According to common sense, the Black Fire was transported from the direction of Qingcheng and would be stored in the nearby Arms Department in the west. She had just asked Leng Feng to transport the Black Fire there, and there was only a thin line between the Arms Department and the granary.
Although in addition to the military escort, there is also the shadow of Disha Pavilion to guard it, but since the assassin has such ability, it is very likely that he will set fire to the armament department.
Part of the food and grass was burned, which may be a big or small matter, but black fire cannot contain a single spark! This batch of a thousand pieces, if they were ignited at Tianlin Station, would be razed to the ground for several miles around, and the consequences would be
Unthinkable.
The situation is so tragic that I can’t even imagine it!
Ling Xiyue just took a step, then stepped back, grabbed Vice General Guo's collar, and almost lifted him up on the spot, "You, go over and stare at the emperor! If someone reports, just say it's no big deal. General Zhan has gone to handle it personally.
Anyway, we will try our best to prevent him from getting close to the granary."
"Ah, ah? My subordinates are watching, but your Majesty, your Majesty..." Vice General Guo looked confused and was frozen in place.
Ling Xiyue looked sharply and said, "Do whatever you have to do, don't let a few assassins mess up the whole army."
Vice General Guo didn't understand at all, or the excuse Ling Xiyue gave him.
He was about to ask a question, but the next second, Ling Xiyue's figure was nowhere to be seen.
"Brother-in-law, Xiao Lang, you should stay away from each other. No one is allowed to follow you!" Ling Xiyue said this again immediately, without thinking about what to say, she quickly rushed towards the west of the military camp like a gust of wind.
"Xi Yue, wait!" Zhan Yunyang stretched out his hand and just as he spoke, there was no trace of Ling Xi Yue in front of his eyes.
"General, general?" Vice General Guo turned to look at Zhan Yunyang.
My dear, what does this mean?
Lieutenant General Guo had a bitter look on his face. If the emperor wanted to pass by, how could he, a little lieutenant, be able to stop him?
Zhan Yunyang also didn't understand Ling Xiyue's reaction. Although it was a big deal that the food and grass were set on fire by the assassin, it didn't make Xiyue so anxious. After thinking about it, Zhan Yunyang realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly caught up and stayed.
The next sentence is, "Just do as the queen orders."
"elder sister"
Ling Lang was a little worried and chased after him.
The military orders were overwhelming, and Vice General Guo had to do it, but these two worried Ling Xiyue could not listen. Besides, Zhan Yunyang was the commander of the 20,000 troops stationed in the west. If something like this happened, how could he hide?
The truth on the side.
"Quick, add more people here, the fire is coming, hurry!"
"Don't go in, it might be too violent here!"
"Quickly, go over there and have a look!"
"Catch the assassin!"
…
The sounds of flames flying, splashing water, footsteps, shouts... merged into a wave-like boiling sound.
When Ling Xiyue rushed to the western granary as quickly as possible, the scene was already a sea of fire. The soldiers were putting out the fire and the patrols were patrolling. Although there were people running fast everywhere, they were busy and orderly and not completely
It's messed up.
"Where is the armament department!"
Ling Xiyue flew over, grabbed a soldier carrying a bucket and said coldly.
