Chapter 2333 Being kept in the dark

Chen Yang glanced at the more than a thousand cultivators in front of the Fahua Helm, and said to Zhao Kun in a deep voice: "Master Zhao, I'm afraid there are some things that you have been kept in the dark about."

Zhao Kun frowned, his expression slightly ugly, and said, "Let's go find the Palace Master."

While he was talking, Xin Tianqiao, the master of the Qingyang Mansion, walked out of the Lotus Helm and walked towards the front of the crowd.

Chen Yang and Zhao Kun were standing at the gate of the mountain, and Xin Tianqiao saw them at a glance.

"Huh."

Xin Tianqiao paused slightly, but his expression remained unchanged as he walked towards them and said: "Zhao Kun, you led the vanguard and didn't go to the Qinghua Mountains to deploy troops and horses. Why did you return? And you, Chen Yang, as Scout, it’s only been half a day and you’ve been traveling back and forth from Qingyangduo, can you get any news?”

Before Chen Yang and the other two could speak, Xin Tianqiao asked in a bad tone.

This made Zhao Kun, who was already unhappy, take a deep breath.

If it weren't for his inferior strength to Xin Tianqiao and their different identities, I'm afraid Zhao Kun would get angry immediately.

He stepped forward and said: "For the record, Palace Master, Chen Yang returned because he found confidential information. The matter is of great importance, so I came with him to report to you."

Xin Tianqiao raised his head slightly, his expression unchanged, and said coldly: "What news is so important?"

Zhao Kun told Xin Tianqiao exactly what Chen Yang had discovered.

"I didn't expect that the old thief Zhang Mian was so treacherous that he actually sent six helmsmen here. If we fight head-on, we will definitely suffer."

After hearing Zhao Kun's news, Xin Tianqiao said coldly, with surprise in his tone.

The Zhang Mian he mentioned was the master of Wangxuan Mansion.

But what surprised Chen Yang was that Xin Tianqiao was not worried at all, but had a hint of excitement in his eyes.

It feels like I wish there were more people in Wangxuan Mansion.

Zhao Kun said: "Palace Master, now that the number of people in Wangxuan Mansion has increased, we still have to be prepared. We also ask the Palace Master to plan another strategy."

"Need not."

Xin Tianqiao waved his hand and said: "You Jiujiang Helmsmen, just do your own thing well. You don't have to worry about anything else."

Zhao Kun's eyes darkened, and he could hardly conceal his dissatisfaction in his tone as he said: "Master, if you insist on doing this, wouldn't you let our brothers from Jiujiang Duo die? I'm afraid that I, Zhao Kun, will not be able to obey your orders."

"Are you disobeying me?"

Xin Tianqiao said coldly.

This time, Zhao Kun did not give in, saying: "I am a subordinate of the Palace Master, so naturally I will not disobey you. However, I still need the Palace Master to give me a reason to carry out this action that is bound to fail. Otherwise, In this charge, I am afraid that my subordinates can work hard, but the brothers in Jiujiang Duo do not have that confidence."

Xin Tianqiao narrowed his eyes, with anger in his eyes.

But then, he laughed, patted Zhao Kun on the shoulder, and said: "Haha, it seems that I can't hide this plan from you."

"what's the plan?"

Zhao Kun looked confused, but he immediately realized that the plan should be related to the other three sub-helms gathering troops at this moment.

Xin Tianqiao glanced at the men and horses in front of Fahua Helm, then pointed at the men and horses at Linyang Helm and Qianhu Helm down the mountain, and said to Zhao Kun: "Do you know why I asked them to gather here today to prepare to send troops?"

"I don't know."

Zhao Kun shook his head. At this moment, he was very dissatisfied with Xin Tianqiao's showy communication style.

Xin Tianqiao said: "We are sending troops now to sneak into the Qinghua Mountains. When you confront Wangxuan Mansion the day after tomorrow, we will outflank Wangxuan Mansion, annihilate it in one fell swoop, and win the victory."

"is that so?"

Zhao Kun frowned, looked at Xin Tianqiao suspiciously, and said, "In that case, why didn't the palace master tell me before?"

Xin Tianqiao smiled and said: "I'm worried that if you know the specific strategy and act too forcefully, Wangxuan Mansion may withdraw its troops, and my arrangement will be invalid. That's why I kept it from you. "

Zhao Kun's tone was displeased: "But the master of the palace won't reveal anything, right? Your words make me very passive."

"You are overthinking. I, Xin Tianqiao, have always treated my subordinates as brothers and sisters. How can I really let you act as a vanguard and fight against the Wangxuan Mansion? In the final analysis, you still don't trust me as a superior."

As Xin Tianqiao spoke, he labeled Zhao Kun as questioning his superiors again.

On the face of it, Zhao Kun still wanted to respect Xin Tianqiao, and immediately explained: "Master, please forgive me, I was just in a hurry, so I only complained a few words."

"It doesn't matter, I'm not a person without measure."

Xin Tianqiao waved his hand and said: "Zhao Kun, now that you know the strategy, you should feel at ease. You should immediately lead the Jiujiang Helmsmen and enter the Qinghua Mountains under the cover of night to make arrangements."

Zhao Kun did not move and said: "Master of the Palace, should we communicate and see where the ambush trap is, then I can lure the people from Wangxuan Palace there."

Xin Tianqiao said: "No, we will cooperate with you, there is no need for you to cooperate with us."

"All right."

Zhao Kun could only agree and changed the subject, saying: "However, the opponent has six rudders. Even if they are surrounded, they may not be able to defeat them in one fell swoop. There are too many variables. I think we should discuss the strategy in detail. . In addition, I also hope that the palace master can mobilize two more rudders."

"Zhao Kun, it seems that you really don't believe me."

Xin Tianqiao looked sulky and said in a deep voice: "You can just go. I, Xin Tianqiao, am absolutely sure about this battle. If the war starts the day after tomorrow and your Jiujiang Rudder suffers heavy losses, I promise to compensate you. I can even divide it into another one." I'll leave it to you to manage the helm."

Speaking of this, even the subordinate Zhao Kun was speechless.

Full of depression, after accepting the order, he took Chen Yang and left from the Lotus Helm and continued to the Qinghua Mountains.

On the way, Zhao Kun looked solemn and kept thinking. He always felt that something was wrong, not what Xin Tianqiao said.

Approaching the station of Jiujiang Rudder, he slowed down and said to Chen Yang, "Chen Yang, what is your opinion on this matter?"

Chen Yang said bluntly: "Xin Tianqiao is obviously deceiving you."

Zhao Kun frowned: "I think so too, but what exactly does he want to do?"

Chen Yang said: "His purpose is definitely to defeat Wangxuan Mansion, but I can't think of his specific strategy. But what is certain is that Jiujiang Helm is not important in his eyes."

Zhao Kun snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said: "Xin Tianqiao, this bastard, wants me, Jiujiang Duo, to be used as cannon fodder, so I won't obey. How can my Jiujiang Duo brother's sacrifice be in vain?"

Chen Yang glanced at Zhao Kun, shook his head and said, "But Master Zhao, if you don't obey, Xin Tianqiao will pursue you. Jiujiang Helm cannot stop Qingyang Mansion."
