Silverclaw Principality, White Eagle Point, Mountaintop Hot Spring Mansion.
The surface of the pool was filled with steam, clouds and mists, faintly visible stone beast heads, and warm spring water was flowing out of the beast's mouth.
Outside the pool, there are many strange rocks and silver sand everywhere. Snowflakes fall on the green bamboo leaves, quiet and elegant, and comfortable.
A wooden shed was erected on the edge of the hot spring pool, three feet above the ground. The steam passes through the gaps in the wood blocks and lingers during the period. Snow is floating outside, but warm inside.
There were three figures in the hazy mist, one man and two women, the man lying half-lying and the woman sitting, but the sitting posture was slightly different. One was well-mannered, kneeling upright, and the other was sitting on the ground.
This man is Chen Xing, who defeated the Silver Claw Lord a few days ago, and the two women are Jian Yue Canglian and Xiang Caidie.
After Chen Xing settled in Baiying Point, Yeyang Bailiu left with the Iron Sisters. After all, the Great Temple was not a regular combat unit and would not participate in the next siege of the Silver Eagle.
If Yeyang and Bailiu were still there, Chen Xing would never dare to take two women to the hot spring blatantly. Although the great therapist didn't say anything, he was more jealous than anyone else. Those cold eyes made people frightened.
This hot spring house on the top of the mountain was the day when he entered the town, the mayor vacated it for him on the condition that he could not harm the residents of the town.
But in fact, this condition is not a condition at all. War is a matter between nobles, not to mention wars within the kingdom, which generally do not affect civilians.
For civilians, it just changed the tax object, and it didn't make a big difference.
When the expeditionary army entered the town, the city defender only surrendered after a symbolic resistance. Even if the country's lord and the main force are defeated, their local troops don't have to struggle. If you can't beat it, you will give up. This is a kingdom. There is no national integrity, family feelings, and so on.
The mayor put forward such conditions in order to have a step down in the future. If Chen Xing wins, there is no problem to please him, but in case Chen Xing loses or the peace talks, then the mayor is still a minister of the Silver Claw Principality.
This gave him an excuse to say that the mansion was not to please the enemy, but to protect the residents of the town.
This reason can be considered reasonable. Baiyingjiao is a big town with a large number of residents and rich industries. There is no way to evacuate it in a short period of time like the fringe town.
"You mean, apart from you and Cang Lian, no one else knows?" Chen Xing asked.
"Yeah!" Xiang Caidie nodded vigorously, "I know it's important, so I dare not tell anyone. I didn't even say Huozui Big Cat."
"But Silver Claw's troops came over suddenly, without warning?" Chen Xing asked again.
"Yes." Xiang Caidie said, "We have interrogated a lot of Silverclaw prisoners these days. They all said that the order from above was very urgent, and there was no preparation at all. When we set off, we didn't even have time to clean up the clothes."
"It feels weird, their
The superior seems to be..." Xiang Caidie said uncertainly, "It seems to know something..."
Chen Xing frowned slightly. If Xiang Caidie was telling the truth, it meant that there was a traitor in the expeditionary army.
But Xiang Caidie said that only she and Jianyue Canglian knew about his coma. The internal traitor could not be Xiang Caidie, let alone Jianyue Canglian.
If they have different intentions, it would be enough for him to die a hundred times.
So who on earth betrayed him?
And who has the condition to betray him?
A thought suddenly flashed in my mind.
Nova?
No, it's impossible!
If Nova wanted to disadvantage him, she would not be saved when Qing Guo was arrested by Zhao Yuankai. The emperor of the Qing Dynasty wanted to kill a little red baron, which was similar to squeezing an ant to death.
Then there is only one possibility.
Sola!
Once this idea appeared, it became out of control.
Chen Xing recalled the contact with Sola some time ago, and found that she couldn't see through her more and more. Originally some very simple things, she always pushed back and forth, for a bunch of reasons, anyway, she just didn't help.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.
In fact, from the beginning, he never really believed in Nova and Sola. Non-self races must have different hearts, even if they have different cultures and skin colors, and even the elements that make up life are different, it is difficult to believe that they can be at the same mind as humans.
But after seeing Nova in Qingguo, the other party felt very good for him, and he unconsciously regarded the other party as a human, and his vigilance suddenly relaxed.
"My lord, commander-in-chief of the left army, Baron Prader, please." A female officer came under the wooden shed and bowed to Chen Xing.
"Commander of the Left Army?" Chen Xing was stunned. "Isn't the Commander of the Left Army Viscount Ramon?"
"Viscount Ramon took someone to leave midway, and Bai Liu appointed Baron Prade." Xiang Caidie said. The military affairs are busy these days, and it is too late to tell Chen Xing about this situation.
"These monitor lizard city dignitaries are really unreliable." Chen Xing couldn't help sighing.
After a while, Chen Xing came to the gate of the hot spring mansion and met with Baron Prader.
This was originally a hot spring hotel, which was converted into a residence by the mayor, but the courtyard and stairs outside were preserved.
"Come, sit here."
Chen Xing sat casually on the stairs and greeted Baron Prader to sit down. The latter was a little cramped and didn't dare to sit down.
"It's all old friends, don't be too particular about it." Chen Xing said the second sentence, and Baron Prader sat down in fear.
"Come to me today, what's the matter?" Chen Xing asked straightforwardly.
Baron Prader stood up again and bowed to Chen Xing, "I beg your sir, save my four thousand soldiers from the left army!"
Chen Xing
After another stunned, "What's the matter?"
After some understanding, Chen Xing roughly understood the situation.
About an hour ago, Viscount Ramon’s eldest son Torres fled back with a few soldiers, saying that his father may have been killed, and the remaining 4,000 soldiers of the Left Army were being sent to the garrison of the Red Dragon First Army.
With the help of the old ministries of Viscount Ramon, he escaped halfway and ran back across the border on foot.
"They are all the guys who fled, what are you doing to save them?" Chen Xing said grimly.
"Although they escaped on the battlefield, they were also bewildered by the princess. Moreover, they were only low-level soldiers. They were ordered to act, and they were not at fault. What's more, they fought **** battles in the towns of Wildcat and Cupronickel, which won us a lot of time. No matter what. Said, merit is greater than demerit, please adults..."
"Wait, what did you just say, the confusion of the princess?" Chen Xing captured a detail.
"According to what Baron Prade said, the eldest princess promised him that as long as he is willing to leave the expeditionary army, he will be the commander of the Second Army."
"Why is that stinky woman again!"
Hearing this, Chen Xing understood everything and couldn't help but yell. This Lacey is so bad, all kinds of targeting him openly and secretly, it seems that he is not happy if he is not killed.
"What a bitch..."
Chen Xing wanted to curse a few more words when a female officer suddenly hurried over from outside.
When she ran to the steps, she stood still, and said nervously and hurriedly: "My lord, Princess of the Principality, your Royal Highness, please see you!"
Chen Xing and Baron Prader stayed at the same time, and there were too many accidents heard today. The eldest princess came to the mansion in person, and waited outside to "seeking", her attitude was so low that she had never heard of it before.
Although both of them stayed for a while, they were different "stays". Baron Prade was a thunderous, dumbfounded, shocked to the point that he couldn't himself, he was about to doubt the point of life. Chen Xing was taken aback for a moment, then narrowed his eyes, as if thinking of something. The wind is light and the clouds are light, and everything changes calmly.
"Did she come alone, or did she bring other people?" Chen Xing asked lightly after a while.
"One person," the female officer replied.
After asking the female officer, Chen Xing looked back at Baron Prader.
After being quiet for almost a minute, Baron Prader gradually recovered, raised his head and met a pair of eyes.
The commander-in-chief was looking at him, and Baron Prader was shocked, with cold sweat on his forehead, and said repeatedly, "My lord and the eldest princess have important matters to discuss. It is inconvenient to bother your subordinates, so leave first!"
After speaking, he got up and gave a military salute, and walked away quickly. At this time, no matter how stupid people are, they know they shouldn't stay here.
"Invite her in."
"Yes!"
"Let others retreat outside, and no entry is allowed without my order."
"Yes!"
