Chapter 1254 Impossible

One more thing.

The troops sent to the Blackwater Kingdom this time are not only to help the people of the Blackwater Kingdom resist the attack of the Nanping Kingdom's army, but may also face the attack of the Yanfeng Kingdom. Therefore, this matter is very important, and Yelu Zong was very satisfied with and trusted Yelu Hongfei. If he sent him to the Blackwater Kingdom, Yelu Zong would feel more at ease.

"Okay." After hesitating for a while, Yelvzong finally nodded, changed his mind, and said, "You will be responsible for the troops sent to Blackwater Country this time, but you have to remember, don't cause trouble. We still need Blackwater Country, understand?"

"Thank you, Father! I understand!" Yelu Hongfei said.

"Okay, you go down and pack up before setting off. The team has already been assembled. You can go over and set off." Yelvzong said.

"Father, don't worry, I will definitely repel those people from the Nanping Kingdom and protect the safety of the Blackwater Kingdom!" Yelu Hongfei said.

Yelu Hongfei was very calm except for being impulsive when it came to Yelu Zhen. Of course, he was also a ruthless person, otherwise, he would not have slaughtered all the royal family members of Nanping Kingdom before.

"There is one more thing I have to remind you." Yelvzong thought of what happened in Yanfeng Kingdom.

"Father, what's the matter?"

"Things about Yanfeng Country."

Later, Yelu Zong told Yelu Hongfei what he had discussed with Yelu Tangzhi and others.

"So that's it." Hearing that Yanfeng Kingdom might attack, Yelu Hongfei was not afraid, but rather excited.

Yelu Hongfei is indeed very similar to Yelu Zong. He longs to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield like his father. This is also one of the reasons why he went to the battlefield many times before. Now they may have a war with the Yanfeng Kingdom. This is exactly what happened. It was time to establish meritorious deeds, and his heart felt hot. This was his chance!

Without extraordinary achievements, it would be very difficult for him to replace his brother as the crown prince. And if he could defeat the Yanfeng Kingdom as a commander, it would naturally be a very big achievement. By then, he would With this merit, he can take his brother's place with the help of his father.

At this time, Yelu Hongfei was even more eager to go to Blackwater Country.

"I know what you are thinking, but please remember that this is no small matter. Remember not to act rashly. Do you understand?" Yelvzong said.

"My son understands." Even though Yelu Hongfei was very confident, he also knew that a war with the Yanfeng Kingdom was definitely not a trivial matter.

"Okay, you go down."

"My son, please retire!"

After Yelu Hongfei left the Imperial Study Room, he couldn't wait to return to his residence, tidied up briefly, and then headed outside the city. Then, he led the completed team and embarked on the journey to Blackwater Country.

On the other side, far away in Yangyu Pass in Blackwater Country, the atmosphere was a bit depressing and awkward.

"How about it, have you found the spies from Nanping Kingdom?" In the palace of the city lord of Yangyuguan, Zhao Guangzhi looked at his generals with a gloomy look.

Zhao Guangzhi is the guard of Yangyuguan and has served here for many years. However, he is not a very talented person. On the contrary, his talents are relatively average. The reason why he can be the guard of Yangyuguan is because of his Due to his luck and some connections, his ability is not even as good as Chen Yufei, the former guard of Shanling Pass.

However, Zhao Guangzhi's position has always been very secure. It is true that Yangyu Pass is a border pass, but Nanping Kingdom is weaker than Heishui Kingdom. Therefore, in wars between the two countries, Blackwater Kingdom usually takes the initiative. The attacking side, while Nanping Kingdom is the defensive side. In this way, Yangyuguan has not actually suffered many attacks from Nanping Kingdom over the years.

But this time it was different. Peng Chuan was defeated at Shanling Pass, and the Blackwater Kingdom suffered heavy losses and its strength was greatly reduced. Under this situation, everyone in the Blackwater Kingdom was worried about the retaliatory attack from the Nanping Kingdom. Zhao Guangzhi, who was stationed at Yangyu Pass, Naturally, he is also worried about this. In fact, he is more worried about this matter than others, because if the Nanping Kingdom attacks the Blackwater Kingdom, Yangyu Pass is the only way to pass and will definitely be the first target to be attacked. As a Zhao Guangzhi couldn't help but worry about the guard here. During this period, he lived in worry all day long and never had a good night's sleep. Along with this, the guards in Yangyu Pass also suffered under his influence. They all became trembling.

Therefore, Wu Fan made such a fuss at the city gate before. In the past, the defenders in Yangyu Pass would not think much about it, but at this special moment, the defenders in the city immediately misunderstood.

After receiving the news, Zhao Guangzhi did not even go to investigate in detail. He also thought that the Nanping Army was coming. While he hurriedly searched for Xizuo's shadow in the city, he wrote multiple letters of distress and sent them to the imperial capital. The emperor asked for help.

However, after some time passed, Zhao Guangzhi and other generals in the city discovered that something was strange:

They searched almost all of Yangyu Pass, but could not find the details of Nanping Kingdom!

"Go back to General, no... not found." Under Zhao Guangzhi's pressure, the soldiers who came to report felt a little scared and nervous.

"Trash! How can such a big living person be able to fly with wings? Look for it again!" Zhao Guangzhi said angrily.

"Yes, yes." The soldier responded and quickly backed away.

"General, is it possible that there is no detailed work from the Nanping Kingdom?" After the soldier left, a general in the hall hesitated and said.

"Impossible! The soldiers at the city gate clearly found the spies from Nanping!" Zhao Guangzhi said without thinking.

"Could they have seen it wrong? After all, they only found the chaos at that time and didn't know the specific identity of the other party."

"Impossible! Who would cause trouble in our Yangyu Pass at this time? Only people from Nanping!"

"But we have searched the inside of the pass and didn't find any people from Nanping."

"Then look carefully and make sure to find them."

"Sir, we sent out a lot of scouts, but didn't find any troops marching in the direction of Nanping. If the people of Nanping really came, they must have sent a lot of troops. It is impossible not to find them. In other words, Nanping didn't send any troops at all."

"Impossible..."

However, this time Zhao Guangzhi said a lot and firmly, and there was a look of doubt and hesitation on his face.

"Is it true that no troops from Nanping were found to be active around our Yangyu Pass?" Zhao Guangzhi asked.

"No." The general who had just spoken shook his head: "Not only are there no Nanping troops around our Yangyu Pass, but according to the information sent back by our spies near Shanling Pass, there have been no signs of any troop movements in Shanling Pass in recent days."
