Chapter 990: Guaranteeing Him to Have No Way to Escape Wu Yiyi opened the curtain and came in. He saw Fang Jie pacing back and forth in the tent: "Jue Xiao, is it difficult to solve the problem of the swordsmen in Zheng Ziyu's army?" Fang Jie He shook his head: "It's not that it's difficult to solve, it's just that he doesn't understand. Qing Niu only guessed whether it was the sect that was picked out by Mr. Wan with his sword back then, but after so many years, even the people from that sect , we have no way of knowing. There have been no rumors about this sect in the world over the years. We don¡¯t know how it behaves or what its strength is. It may not be difficult to deal with the swordsmen in Zheng Ziyu camp, but it is difficult to deal with them. How many of these people will be attracted?" "I really haven't heard of such a sect in the world." Wu Yiyi found a place to sit down, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I do know of a sect in the underworld, many years ago. It has declined and now makes a living by being an assassin. This sect is not big and does not have many experts, but it knows everything about the underworld, because they need all kinds of information, otherwise they will not be able to survive. Take a trip and see if you can leave a secret message to contact them. If you can, you should get some reliable information from these people." "Thank you, Lord Marquis." Fang Jie said, "I was thinking, if there is such a person. The sect that was picked up by Mr. Wan more than two hundred years ago has suddenly appeared after being silent for so long. "I'm afraid that in this world, everyone thinks there is a chance." Not too worried: "Your cultivation level is already very strong now, plus Xiang Qingniu and I, you can deal with even the most powerful practitioners, so you don't need to take it too seriously. I'll be there in the next two days." If you can find out the news, you can find an opportunity to kill those swordsmen first, and then the army will cross the Qin River." Fang Jie nodded: "Okay, then we will wait for the news from the Marquis." Wu Yiyi said in agreement. , stood up and said goodbye: "Yinyu and the others are planning to come over and have already set off. Sasha takes the children, and I will arrange for someone to pick them up later." Fang Jie was slightly startled, then shook his head: "It will not be smooth for them to travel at this time of year, Southwest It¡¯s already the rainy season there. I¡¯ll ask Fuyao to take the people back and ask Zheng Qiu to send a few fast boats.¡± Wu Yiyi nodded: ¡°It¡¯s safer to go all the way north on the navy ship. " Fang Jie suddenly thought of something: "The news of Yinyu and Sa Sa's arrival cannot be leaked. We are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case" "I know." Wu Yiyi smiled: "Nothing will happen to them. Starting from the Suzaku Mountain Camp, they will take the road to Xinyang City. There will be no problem along the way. After they arrive at Xinyang City, the navy ship you arranged will probably arrive, within a few days. They are waiting in Xinyang City, and there will be no danger in taking the water route. However, Ning'er is still young, so she might feel a little uncomfortable during the bumpy journey. "Fang explained: "The same goes for them, just wait a little longer at Zhuque Mountain. " "When men go out to do things, they often forget about home. " Wu Yiyi reminded: "But when a woman is at home, she has nothing else to do unless she is thinking about her man. " Fang Jie was shocked and felt a little guilty. "It doesn't matter if they are here, I will pick them up after Chang'an City is conquered. ¡± ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ Outside Chang¡¯an City Gyeonggi-do Chang¡¯an City Acropolis There are acropolises in the four directions of Chang¡¯an City in the southeast, northwest and northwest. The construction of these acropolis is also extremely strong. During the heyday of the Sui Dynasty, each acropolis had at least It was necessary to maintain two thousand elite soldiers. However, after the Sui Dynasty, troops from Gyeonggi Province were constantly mobilized to go out. In addition, Gyeonggi Province also fell into war. This was not the first time that Luo Yao's troops were breached. It has been breached, and now it has become Gao Kaitai's command post. Since the negotiation with Fang Jie broke down, Gao Kaitai has stopped attacking Chang'an City, and all the troops on the front line have been reduced. For Gao Kaitai, Chang'an City has no meaning. There are only two things he has to do now. The first is to defeat Fang Jie. The second is to choose a good retreat route. If the defenders are not too strong, the first choice is to go east. If there is no way to go east, then you can only go west. Suncheng Road and Tai'an Road are the richest in the northern half of the Sui Dynasty. The place is not much different from Jiangnan. The black land of Shuncheng Road and Tai'an Road is the northern part of the Sui Dynasty.?Granary. "Your Majesty seems unsure about the Black Flag Army's battle?" A middle-aged man wearing a Confucian shirt sitting not far away said while sipping tea. This man looks to be about forty years old. He has a beardless face and a slightly long face. However, his facial features are very good and he looks gentle. He should be a erudite professor no matter how you look at it. The moon-white Confucian shirt made his bookish temperament even more intense, so that he would never feel too threatening. But when Gao Kaitai looked at this person, his eyes were full of vigilance and fear. He already knew the strength of this man. Gao Kaitai himself had good cultivation, but he knew that he might not be able to last even three breaths in front of this man in Confucian shirt. This is not the most important reason why Gao Kaitai is afraid. The most important thing is that this person is not the strongest one, he ranks fourth. His subordinates all call him Fourth Master. Outsiders call him Mr. Four. "Mr. Fourth may not know much about military affairs When marching and fighting, consider defeat before winning. No matter how sure you are of winning, or whether you are not sure of winning, the first thing to do is to prepare a retreat. . The battle with the Black Flag Army was fierce, but I didn't have any chance of winning. Without your help, my chances of winning were not as good as Fang Jie's, but now that Mr. Four is here, I think I have a better chance of winning this battle. "Haha" Mr. Fourth couldn't help but laugh: "Your Majesty, that's ridiculous. Although I can still say something in the sect, the overall situation depends on Master Jiu. If we win the battle, then the prince should not be able to lose. The reason why we are willing to help the prince is that we will not watch the prince lose. The sect has already transferred half of its strength, so it will naturally do its best. " "After Mr. Four returns, he will do his best. Thank you, Mr. Jiu." Gao Kaitai said with a smile. "Go back?" Mr. Fourth shook his head: "No, I won't go back. At least until this battle is over, I don't have to go back. Master Jiu told him before he came that what he is most worried about now is not the battle over Qinhe. What, it's just that Fang Jie wants to take a shortcut. If he sends a master to assassinate the prince, he may not be able to cope with it. After all, Fang Jie has many great practitioners around him. Even if Xiang Qingniu comes alone, the prince may not be able to escape on his own, right?" Gao Kaitai's expression changed, but he suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and still smiled kindly. It's just that I have already regretted it a hundred times a thousand times, as if I was so obsessed in the first place that I invited these people to come back as helpers. Now these guys have turned into guests, and his own safety is in the hands of these people. Now, he finally understood why these people came to him. If these people go to Fang Jie, Fang Jie will definitely not pay attention to them. And precisely because they are not as good as Fang Jie now, and there are no great practitioners around to protect them, they can do whatever they want. "Mr. Four has already made Gao Kaitai feel very anxious. I really don't know how scary it will be if Mr. Ninth comes." This sect is said to have disappeared from the world for hundreds of years. How can it still be so powerful? If Gao Kaitai had known that they were so strong, he would definitely not have used them. Now that the guest is strong and the host is weak, one can imagine how difficult life will be in the future. But this is not what Gao Kaitai is most worried about. What he is worried about is that the foundation he has worked so hard to build will eventually fall into the hands of others, and he will lose nothing. "Haha That's naturally the best. I feel relieved with Mr. Four here." Gao Kaitai smiled along with him, feeling particularly uncomfortable. "Um where is Mr. Jiu now?" Gao Kaitai asked. Mr. Fourth took a sip of tea and said gently: "Master Ninth went to the west. Master Eight came back from the west a while ago and had some contact with people from the Fo Sect. However, the conditions offered by the Fo Sect seemed to be a bit high. Master Ba I don¡¯t dare to make the decision myself, so I came back to ask Master Jiu for help. In the future, we will bring people from the Buddha Sect to help you. The world is already in your hands.¡± ¡°People from the Buddha Sect?¡± Gao Kaitai¡¯s expression changed. Bian: "It's better not to provoke people from the Buddhist sect." "Your Majesty is really worried." Mr. Fourth smiled and said: "The rivers and lakes are actually rivers and lakes, and the world is not limited to the Central Plains. As long as you are a person in the rivers and lakes, you can naturally become an enemy. We can be friends. The people of the Taoist sect and the Buddhist sect are at odds with each other. We can take advantage of this. Prince, don¡¯t worry, the Buddhist sect is no longer what it used to be. Now they are eager to find another helper. The suppression of the Buddhist sect is quite severe. " "The people of the Buddhist sect have lost their former prestige in the west. How dare they be so arrogant in the Central Plains? Moreover, Master Jiu went there in person this time."For Jiu Ye, there is nothing in this world that is impossible. Does the prince still doubt this? "No, no, no," Gao Kaitai said with a smile, "Of course I can trust Master Jiu's ability." " "do not worry. "Mr. Fourth stood up, walked to Gao Kaitai and said, "Since Master Jiu wants to help the prince, it will be difficult for the prince not to take over the throne in the future. What the prince wants is the honor of the Nine Fives, and what the ninth prince wants is to unify the world. If we unite, we will benefit both sides, and if we divide, we will suffer both disadvantages. The prince cannot do without us, and we cannot do without the prince. Given this premise, what is the prince afraid of? As for those people in the Buddhist sect that the prince is worried about, just kill them when they are done. " "I'm afraid that people from the Buddhist sect will be difficult to deal with. " Gao Kaitai is still a little worried. " Is it difficult to deal with? "Mr. Fourth laughed loudly: "I really should let the prince meet the seventh master when I get back, but the seventh master went to the south and it will take a while before he can come back. " "Seventh Master's cultivation is very strong? " Gao Kaitai asked tentatively. "At least I am no match for the three of them. Mr. Fourth praised sincerely: "What's more, he is only sixteen years old." The seventh master now is the seventh master, and in a few years he might be the eighth master Of course, the ninth master will always be the ninth master. " "What did Qi Ye do to the south? " "Fang Jie's base camp is in the south, so he must not be able to lead troops to fight with peace of mind. I heard that his wife and children are all on Zhuque Mountain. Although this method is a bit underhanded, in extraordinary times, it doesn't matter what method you use. What matters is that it works. Even if the boss couldn't kill Fang Jie, Fang Jie might not be in the mood to lead any more troops when he heard that his backyard was in chaos. As long as he rushes back, his death will almost come. Mr. Fourth smiled and said, "If someone is tricked by Master Jiu, that person will have no way to escape." "
