Tao Wenhai smiled wryly. Since the enemy was so strong and difficult to defeat, this didn't seem like good news to be happy about.
In the corner, the woman sitting with her knees bent slowly stirred the incense ashes evenly and cut the agarwood into small pieces. The charcoal and the agarwood were filled with a graceful beauty. Because tonight's conversation would definitely not be short, her movements were neither hurried nor slow.
Tao Wenhai said carefully, "Your Highness, if I may be so bold as to suggest …"
Hsu Fengnian quickly said, "You want the Wu family's cavalry and swords to come to Youzhou to put out the fire?"
Somewhat embarrassed, Tao Wenhai nodded.
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said, "The Wu family's swordsmen have to stay with Chu Lushan in case of any accidents. They can't move yet."
Tao Jinzao and Tao Wenhai knew that the long-browed, one-armed old man next to the King of Beiliang was a sword immortal who had become famous in Liangzhou City. Of course, they didn't think that such an expert would leave the King of Beiliang's side. Most importantly, no matter how bad their eyesight was, they could tell that the King of Beiliang was acting very "strange". It was as if he had only won a Pyrrhic victory after a great battle. If they guessed right, then the sword immortal old man couldn't leave without permission. In fact, Hsu Fengnian hoped that Sui Xie Gu could help since Tantai Pingjing was by his side. However, the old man didn't care about the situation in Youzhou at all. He didn't care about his seniority at all. Wherever Tantai Pingjing went, he would go. The two of them added up to more than 200 years old. In Sui Xie Gu's words, "How many times can I look at her now? Of course, I'll look at her as much as I can. "
However, Hsu Fengnian wouldn't just wait for death and allow Beimang's forces to strut around Youzhou. In addition to the mobilization of Wutongin's Whispering Room and Tide-listening Pavilion's experts, he also sent Mi Fengjie, the master of the Heavy Sword Cave, to Youzhou to cooperate with Fan Xiaochai, the granddaughter of Fan Baoshan, who used to be Northern Han's Defender-general. Fan Xiaochai's Finger Xuan Realm wasn't something that Daozong's Xuan Realm could compare to. With Fan Xiaochai's current strength, she could easily defeat any second-level master of the Chess and Sword Music School, even if it was one against two. In addition, the Guanyin Sect's Qi Refinement Warriors had already secretly rushed to Youzhou. They wouldn't directly get involved in this muddy water, but they would do their best to keep an eye on those first-level masters who only appeared briefly during the battle. They would pass on the information to the nearby Peregrine Falcon Eagle Guard so that Youzhou would have a target to target.
This battle would definitely be a series of small-scale and bloody battles. Once the two sides met, they were destined to die or be injured. There was no way to escape unscathed. It was a competition to see which side could move faster and more stealthily.
Tao Jinzao and Tao Wenhai only guessed that the King of Beiliang was seriously injured, but Beimang's Li Mibi clearly knew about it. Thus, Suixie Valley was a target that Beimang had to focus on. In Hsu Fengnian's opinion, other than the Princess's Grave, Suixie Valley, who might be a backup plan for an imaginary enemy, there should be another top-notch master hiding even deeper. Of course, the "top-notch" in Hsu Fengnian's eyes would not be on the same line as literati like Tao Jinzao and Tao Wenhai.
Hsu Fengnian asked, "Is there a detailed map of Youzhou's situation here?"
Tao Wenhai hurriedly got up and went to the study to fetch the maps. After that, he came back with a large pile of maps, including the map of the territory of Youzhou Province and the maps of prefectures and counties. He spread out the largest map of the entire Youzhou Province on the desk and put the smaller maps separately. Not everyone dared to hide these things among the people. Once the government found out, they would definitely be thrown into jail. Hsu Fengnian stood up, followed by Tao Jinzao and Tao Wenhai. Hsu Fengnian inquired about the distribution of the Men of Sacrifice in each county of Youzhou in detail, hoping to fill in the gaps. Naturally, the three of them would occasionally talk about the topography of each county. Tao Wenhai was surprised to find that the King of Vassal knew the geography of Yanzhi County like the back of his hand, which many locals of Yanzhi County did not know. He could also casually mention the garrisoned troops and commanding officers in each county. He even knew the background and character of the generals who were no higher than Level 6 or Level 7. Tao Wenhai could not help but suspect that he, a small county magistrate, could not escape from the King's eyes. For a moment, he was worried that he would leave a bad impression on the young King.
The three of them chatted for four hours. The young woman sat in the corner with her legs bent, except for pouring incense, tea and candles.
