Chapter 206 - Ye Lvhongji's family
Ling Xiao's tone was sincere and his expression was serious. From the looks of it, he sincerely wanted to help Ye Lvhongji win this war.
In Ye Lvhongji's eyes, he knew deep in his heart that Ling Xiao was a brother to him, and couldn't help but be moved to tears.
Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh: "Hongji's leader, as the saying goes, men do not cry easily. Even if it's moving, it shouldn't be.
Wiping away the tears at the corner of his eyes, Ye Lvhongji said with a serious expression: "Although we have only known each other for a few short days, Sect Master Ling has given me a powerful impression. For me, Ye Lvhongji, to have such a trustworthy brother, can be considered as having no regrets!"
Hearing that, Ling Xiao waved his hands: "No need to speak so tragically, our brotherly relationship has only just begun. We will definitely be able to cross paths with each other in this difficult situation, your problem, is my problem.
Ye Lvhongji nodded his head vigorously, and then ordered someone to bring a jug of good wine.
After personally pouring a cup for Ling Xiao, Ye Lvhongji raised the cup with both hands and said with a stern expression: "This cup is for me to toast my brother, please forgive me for not trusting you before."
"Good!" Then let's drink this toast together. From now on, we will cherish this brotherly relationship! There's no need to bring up the past anymore! " Ling Xiao also raised his wine cup, and said with a serious expression.
Soon after, the two of them finished their drinks and after putting down their wine cups, they both started laughing loudly.
With Ling Xiao's encouragement and support, Ye Lvhongji's mood became a lot better, and his mental state became a lot better. Within the next day, Ling Xiao would meditate in his own room, and continuously delve deeper.
On the other hand, Ye Lvhongji was discussing with the generals about attacking tactics, as well as waiting for the Imperial City to report to them.
Just as Ling Xiao finished a stage of refinement and was about to walk around, a Soldiers walked in hurriedly and said loudly, "Reporting to Sect Master Ling, the Emperor has requested for you to go to the army camp."
Hearing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head and said: "I understand, prepare your horses."
"Yes sir!"
Riding on his horse, Ling Xiao rushed to the barracks as fast as he could. He knew that Ye Lvhongji must have gotten news of him, if not he would not have hurried over to find him.
"How is Hongji's leader?" After entering the tent, Ling Xiao asked directly.
"The news has already arrived, my family has indeed been moved out of the Imperial City, but it's not far away, on a mountain near the Imperial City. The trouble is, there's a group of heavy soldiers stationed there, and they even temporarily set up several sentries. Ye Lvhongji said as he frowned.
He knew that Ye Lvhongji would definitely fight back. With King Chu's military, he might not even be able to withstand Ye Lvhongji's rage, but if there was a threat from his family, it would be a completely different story.
"Hongji's leader, show me the specific location and terrain of that place." Ling Xiao said.
"Come, tell Sect Master Ling." Ye Lvhongji took a step back and handed the sand table to one of his advisors.
Very quickly, Ling Xiao finished listening to the Military Advisor's introduction. It turned out that this mountain was half barren mountain, and because of the lack of resources, there were very few prey, so the nearby villagers would not go in to hunt. Naturally, there would be very few people, and it would not attract too much attention.
And it was because of this point that the King Chu had secretly used this place as a stronghold. As for the terrain, it was normal, and did not arouse much interest from the others.
"So what if there are hidden guards in this kind of place? As long as we search carefully, it will be easy to discover that the terrain is not good and it is not easy to defend." Even if there are hidden sentries in this kind of place, it will be easy to discover that the terrain is not good. Ling Xiao said disdainfully with his hands behind his back.
Hearing this, Ye Lvhongji's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked: "Then does Sect Master Ling have a way?"
"Of course, how many people are tied up here?" Ling Xiao asked.
"Three hundred elite soldiers. Furthermore, this place is less than a hundred miles away from the Imperial City. The strategist at the side said.
Hearing that, Ye Lvhongji could not help but stay silent for a moment, then looked at Ling Xiao with eyes full of worry.
However, Ling Xiao laughed, "Only three hundred elites, King Chu is still too generous."
"What?" The tent was filled with shouts of surprise, what Ling Xiao meant was, it was as if he did not take the three hundred elites seriously at all.
"Sect Master Ling, this is not child's play. Three hundred elites, all of them are well-equipped veterans of the battlefield, they need at least a thousand ordinary Soldiers s to barely contend against them. Ye Lvhongji knew that Ling Xiao was extremely strong, but he had been in battle for many years.
Perhaps three hundred elites might not be a big deal on the battlefield, but in small scale battles like this one, they were definitely the most powerful existences.
Ling Xiao saw the nervous look on everyone's faces and waved his hand: "No need to be so worried, 300 elite soldiers is alright, unless it's 1000, but it's just a headache. Alright, now that I know the location and strength, let's discuss the problem of handing over the battle after rescue."
Looking at the extremely confident Ling Xiao, Ye Lvhongji thought back to the scene in the eugenol earlier. Even though his heart was still a little perturbed, when he saw Ling Xiao's expression, he could not help but choose to believe it.
"Hongji's leader, don't forget what I said in the room before." Ling Xiao looked at Ye Lvhongji and said with a smile.
"Good!" Then let's discuss the handover. " Ye Lvhongji nodded strongly, and then walked to the front of the sand table.
"Near the Imperial City, there are some small cities, because they are not on the way to attack, they have yet to send their troops to occupy them, so it is likely that they have already spent a lot of time trying to suppress the Imperial City, naturally they do not have the time to care about these small cities, we can surround these small cities and work here." Ye Lvhongji pointed to the few small flags on the sand table.
After Ling Xiao heard this, he took a few glances and said: "Hongji's leader, you guys send out troops to attack the lair of the King Chu, but you will also send out troops to go to the Imperial City, right?"
"That's right. Although they won't attack for the time being, we have to give them some pressure." Ye Lvhongji said as he nodded his head.
