Chapter 617 Another Son of Heaven
About quarter of an hour later, the two groups separated on this mountain peak and continued their journey in the north and south directions respectively.
Yang Liushi's greatest strength is that she is efficient. Since she knows that splitting the troops into two groups is the best approach, she acted decisively and did not even refuse Wei Changtian's request that Lu Huang go with her.
Although if Lu Huang followed Wei Changtian, he would undoubtedly be a great help to the latter.
But with Wei Changtian's strength, unless he wants to charge into the enemy camp after arriving in Ji Country, it actually doesn't make much difference whether Lu Huang is there or not.
But she is different.
With the fifth-grade strength, it is not very safe to travel in the Tianshan Mountains.
If something happens and he unfortunately dies, it will be a huge blow to Wei Changtian.
Yang Liushi is not afraid of death, but she doesn't want Wei Changtian to be sad because of her death.
So she didn't say much, and soon turned around and walked back with Lu Huang, heading straight for the mountain temple.
Two days later.
"Sir, this is it!"
The snow-capped mountains still stretch on, and the ice covers thousands of miles.
Three figures emerged from the rocks and stood beside a small lake.
"Last time, when I escorted the envoys from the Zhanshi Mansion to the Ji Kingdom, we also passed by this lake, which means we are not on the wrong road."
After carefully observing the shape of the small lake, Huang Sheng said excitedly, "If I remember correctly, if we walk north from this lake for more than half a day, we should be able to leave the Tianshan area."
"At that time, as long as you stand on the top of the mountain, you can see the Nanshan County City of Ji State."
“.”
Facing the small lake, Huang Sheng carefully introduced the situation.
While listening, Wei Changtian walked to the lake and washed his face with some water.
After three days in the mountains, we finally reached the border of Ji State.
Thanks to good weather, the speed was faster than expected.
If there are no unexpected circumstances, the armies of the Jue and Ji countries should take two or three days to enter the mountains, which means there is plenty of time.
"Zhang San, is there any news from Liangzhou City?"
After shaking off the water droplets on his hands, Wei Changtian turned around and asked, "Have Liu Shi and Lu Huang gone home yet?"
"Sir, not yet."
Zhang San shook his head: "But it's only been two days, it's normal that Madam and General Lu haven't returned to the city yet."
"Um"
He nodded, and a look of worry flashed across Wei Changtian's face.
Before entering the mountain, they did not anticipate the situation where the troops would be split into two groups, so they did not bring more pieces of mother-and-child jade.
Because of this, Wei Changtian is unable to contact Yang Liushi directly at the moment, and can only ask Liang Zhenlai whether the latter has returned to Liangzhou City.
Two days have passed and he still hasn't returned.
What Zhang San said makes sense, and the time is indeed within a reasonable range.
Besides, with Lu Huang escorting him, he should be able to escape even if he encounters a strong enemy and cannot defeat him.
It's not a big problem.
Wei Changtian slowly stood up, shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
The most urgent task now is to continue on the road and try to track down the armies of the two countries of Jue and Ji as soon as possible, otherwise we will always feel uneasy.
Besides this, there was another thing that made him feel uneasy.
"Did Li Zimu find out anything?"
"Sir, not yet."
Zhang San answered truthfully: "General Liang and General Han have taken Miss Li to meet many people in the past three days, but they haven't gotten to any conclusions."
"Really?"
Wei Changtian frowned and stopped talking.
Three days have passed, and Li Zimu still hasn't been able to find the person who leaked the military intelligence.
So were these people hiding too deeply? Or were the two countries of Jue and Ji using other methods to identify the spies in the army? How were more than a hundred undercover agents belonging to different organizations discovered at the same time? Wei Changtian always felt like there was a fishbone stuck in his throat, and he couldn't rest easy.
Since there is no progress on Li Zimu's side, maybe we can only wait until we reach Ji State and wait!
Suddenly, Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes, as if he remembered something.
Liangzhou City, provincial government.
Outside a quiet room, Liang Zhen had paced back and forth in the aisle hundreds of times.
And just when he passed by the door of the room for the one hundred and fifth time, the tightly closed door finally opened slowly, and a woman in a green jacket walked out.
Although the woman's expression was calm and composed, her underdeveloped figure proved that she was actually not very old.
However, facing such a young woman, Liang Zhen did not show any negligence.
"Miss Li, how is it?"
"Not him."
Li Zimu shook his head slightly, turned around and closed the door.
She glanced at Liang Zhen, who seemed disappointed, and after a moment's hesitation, she continued, "General Liang, I have something to say but I'm not sure if I should say it."
Liang Zhen nodded: "Miss, please speak."
"yes"
Li Zimu looked at Liang Zhen and said in a serious tone: "General, I don't think there is any need to investigate further."
"Um?"
Liang Zhen was stunned: "Why do you say that, young lady?"
"Because we won't find anything if we investigate further."
Li Zimu sighed: "Alas, it will only make the generals in the army panic, which is really more harmful than beneficial."
"What the girl said makes sense."
Liang Zhen also had a bitter look on his face at this time: "But if we can't find the person who leaked the information, I'm afraid the harm will be even greater."
“That’s true.”
Li Zimu paused, then looked directly into Liang Zhen's eyes and whispered something that stunned the latter.
"But General, are you sure that there really is someone who leaked the information?"
In the Nanshan County of the Ji State, an army of eight hundred thousand soldiers was stationed in a camp.
In a large tent, two men, one old and one young, were sitting and discussing matters.
The old man was wearing a casual robe, with a corner of his goldfish bag sticking out from his waist, proving that he was an official of the thirteenth rank or above.
I just don’t know whether he is an official from Dajue or from Ji State.
The young man was dressed in black without any other decorations on his clothes.
This pure black clothing looks very much like a nightgown. If worn by an ordinary person, even an honest citizen, he or she would easily be mistaken for a thief or bandit.
What's more, this man originally had a rather gloomy face.
“.”
"Master Luan, you don't have to be nervous."
The curtain swayed slightly, and the man in black said with a smile: "As long as I don't use my mind-reading ability, I won't know what you are thinking."
"Hey, Mr. Tang is joking."
The old man was obviously of higher status, but he looked somewhat unnatural at this moment.
He forced a smile, took out a token from his sleeve and pushed it in front of the man.
"Young Master, you have performed great service a few days ago. When the Emperor heard about this, he was very pleased and ordered this old minister to come and hand over this token to you."
"Master Tang, with this token you can move freely in the army, and you can mobilize soldiers of less than a thousand at any time."
"Although this power is not that great, it is unprecedented. I hope you can make good use of it."
As if he was a little afraid, the old man said no more after saying these words and just looked at the man opposite him.
The latter held up the token with both hands, stood up, took a step back, and knelt on his knees with a serious face.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Tang Chen will never let down your majesty's trust!"
“.”
The sun is shining brightly and the dust is flying.
Soon, the tent curtain was lifted, and the old man with the goldfish bag walked out hurriedly. In a few breaths, he walked away with the servants outside the tent.
The man named Tang Chen was still standing inside the account, looking at the token with black background and gold letters and smiling.
After more than two years, I can finally realize my ambitions.
And this token is the beginning of his soaring journey.
He put away the token and turned to look at a corner of the account.
A black shadow was lying there, its body was like a pig but with an elephant's trunk, and it was surrounded by black mist.
What’s more important is that this thing has been lying in the corner, but the old man just now never even looked at it.
