Chapter 492: Elaborate plan, it
West side of Milk Tiger Forest, about twenty kilometers deep in Red Wood Ridge.
Under the night, snow is filling the sky, and the cold wind is howling.
A hunting team is searching for prey in the snow forest.
The hunting team has more than twenty people. Five people are in the center, and the others are centered on the five people in the center, searching in groups of three in all directions.
This way of marching in a team to improve search efficiency is not uncommon in Da Xia.
However, at this depth of Red Wood Ridge, there are not many who dare to use this search method. Usually, only advanced hunting teams have this courage.
Swish...
When the team marched to a low slope, a middle-aged man in black in the three-person team on the north side suddenly raised his bow and shot an arrow toward the top of the low slope.
"Brother Zhou, any discovery?"
The other two noticed the man in black shooting an arrow and immediately asked.
The man in black who shot the arrow looked carefully, then shook his head and said: "It is a reflective stone. I saw it wrong. I thought it was a low-level snow mane lying on it."
The other two saw the glowing giant stone on the dirt slope and smiled.
There is indeed a stone on the dirt slope, about three meters long and two meters wide, with a circle of icicles hanging on the side. The icicles are too long, and even extend and protrude in the opposite direction. Looking from afar, it really looks like a low-level snow mane lying on the ground.
"We have come to such a deep place, even if it is a real snow mane, it is not worth our move. Let's continue to search forward!"
The man in black nodded, followed the two and continued to walk forward, walking until about a hundred meters away from the dirt slope, before turning his head to look, a dark look flashing in his pupils.
And after this hunting team walked away, about fifty breaths later, a breeze blew, and a black figure carrying a long spear suddenly appeared on the dirt slope.
The man pulled out the iron arrow inserted in the giant stone and crushed the tail of the iron arrow. Inside, there was a white letter hidden, rubbed into the size of a fine needle.
After reading the letter, the man in black's pupils suddenly lit up. He turned his head to look at the direction of Xia City first, then rose into the air directly and swept toward the deeper part of Red Wood Ridge.
The man in black swept more than ten kilometers to the west quickly, found a small stone peak more than a hundred meters high, landed on the top of the mountain, found a hidden cave entrance with ease, pushed away the baffle at the door, and walked in directly.
"Third Brother, any news?"
Inside that inconspicuous hidden mountain cave, there was actually a bonfire burning, and 23 people were hidden. The 23 people were divided into two groups, 12 on the left and 11 on the right. Seeing the man in black walk in, everyone stood up immediately.
The white-haired old man at the head of the left side asked, and the others saw the smile on the man in black's face with the help of the firelight, and immediately realized something, and their expressions became slightly excited.
The man in black slowly raised his head, revealing a slightly domineering face. It was Yang Zun, the leader of Beishuo, whom Xia Hong had fought several times.
Of course, after a trip to the vassal state, Xia Hong had already guessed that the one who had dealt with him for several years was actually the third brother among the Yang brothers, Yang Jian, who was not famous. Combined with the Third Brother title of the old man on the left, the identity of this person was not difficult to guess.
Yang Jian did not answer the old man's question on the left, but first noticed the eleven people on the right, whose expressions were slightly unkind. After thinking for a moment, he held his fist and bowed to everyone, saying: "Sorry to trouble you adults to guard here for more than two months. Yang will first thank you on behalf of the three northern towns!"
The people on the left had no expression on their faces; the eleven people on the right, hearing Yang Jian's words, had their expressions slightly cleared.
Of course, not absolute!
Among the eleven people on the right, a young man in green who was standing in the front had always had a gloomy expression. He did not change because of Yang Jian's words, and even could not help but shout angrily: "Enough! Yang Jian, don't be mother-in-law, does that bitch's offspring have news?"
Hearing the impatience in Cai Shiqi's tone, Yang Jian's brows sank slightly. After subconsciously looking at his right index finger, he sneered in his heart, then ignored him, raised his head to look at everyone, nodded and said in a deep voice: "Tonight is the Milk Tiger Forest trial. The Lord's personal guards, the Dragon Guards, are all dispatched. The Second Prince Xia Yu Sheng's vehicle, Chi Yan Zhu Hong, has just left the North Gate!"
Everyone in the audience was shocked when they heard this.
Heaven does not disappoint those who have a heart. After guarding for more than two months, they finally waited for the opportunity!
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and set off, catch that kid."
"As long as you catch this Xia Yu Sheng, the problem of the 60,000 Xia troops in the north will be solved immediately..."
"Definitely more than that. Xia Hong is not old, and this is the only seedling. As long as he can be controlled in his hands, he will definitely be able to make a big fuss."
"Yes, yes, he and Li Ying Xuan Ling only have this one only son."
Seeing the people in front of him react so excitedly, Yang Jian did not show any surprise on his face, because when he received the intelligence passed back by the spy just now, the excitement in his heart was not a bit less than everyone else.
The twenty-four of them had been guarding in this bird-not-shitting mountain cave for more than two months. One can imagine the resentment in their hearts at this moment.
"Everyone, don't be impatient..."
Yang Jian did not agree with everyone's proposal to set off immediately, but first interrupted everyone in a slow voice, paused, and then continued: "The many strange things in Xia City, I have already explained to you before. Outsiders are monitored by them at any time, and there is no chance to sneak in secretly.
According to the news passed back by the spy, the monitoring range is limited to the city, but it can be confirmed now that this is a fake news..."
Speaking of this, Yang Jian stopped, turned his head to look at the white-haired old man on the left, who was the leader of the twelve Xianyang-level experts in Chen Cang, the third-generation disciple of the Chu clan of the Yan Ling Commandery branch of the Chen Cang Fangbo lineage, Chu Xuan Kong.
Chu Xuan Kong nodded and said: "The old man has already said before that four years ago, my little granddaughter broke into Xia City once. At that time, she used the Danqing ghost technique to escape to the snow forest five kilometers west of the city, but she was caught by Xia Hong in a short while."
"So..."
Yang Jian immediately took over Chu Xuan Kong's words and said solemnly: "The intelligence passed back by the spy must be fake news deliberately released to confuse others. Da Xia's monitoring range for outsiders is definitely not limited to the city. The encounter of the little princess is enough to prove that its monitoring range can extend to five kilometers outside the city. This is the most conservative estimate."
Everyone in the mountain cave had a slightly heavy expression. The leader of the eleven people in Cai Qiu, the Bai Shui Commandery Military Advisor Zhu Yan, said impatiently: "Yang Jian, stop talking nonsense, just tell the plan directly!"
The group of people in Cai Qiu really had a bad temper. Cai Shiqi was like this just now, and this Zhu Yan was old, but he was also like this.
Thinking that he still had to rely on this group of people, Yang Jian suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice: "This place is at least forty kilometers away from Xia City. We have been guarding here for more than two months, and Xia City has no reaction, which shows that Da Xia's monitoring range cannot extend here, but we don't know exactly where it can reach, so as long as we move, we must be prepared to be known by Da Xia at any time.
Da Xia's strength, I have already explained to you before coming here. Let alone the large army in the city, there are twelve beast king-level puppets, conservatively estimated. Da Xia has had people break through to Xianyang repeatedly in the past two years. Currently, there are as many as 24 known ones. Xia Chuan, Yu Wen Tao, Xiang Fuhai, and Mu Longhe are all in Jin Yang and Dongchuan cities, so there are at least 20 Xianyang-level experts in the city.
Among these 20 people, the strongest are Xia Hong and his wife Li Ying Xuan Ling. Li Ying Xuan Ling's last public appearance was killing Duan Hong in Chui Shan the year before last. At that time, she had 19 Jun of combat power. Her strength now is at least 20 Jun or more, and it may be even higher.
Of course, the most threatening to us is Xia Hong himself. Four years ago, he had more than 22 Jun of strength. Everyone knows his talent. Four years have passed, and his strength now, I estimate, is at least 30 Jun, and it may be even more." ===== CHAPTER 493 =====
