25, Runzhou Navy

When she really wanted to fight, even if she felt that the leisurely life of two or three years was quite comfortable, Chu Ling couldn't help but get excited. In the past two lives, her life was definitely not ordinary, but Chu Ling didn't think it was bad either.

A peaceful and leisurely life is very comfortable, but it can only be considered a temporary rest in her life. At least before she is really old and feels tired. In essence, the boss of the fox nest must not be a person who is willing to be ordinary.

"Princess, what are we going to do?" Feng Sibei followed Chu Ling, his eyes were much brighter than usual. Yun Yi, Xiao Feng and others were sent to the army by Chu Ling, but he was left behind. Feng Sibei was a little disappointed and had a little expectation. The years of getting along with him have been enough to make him realize that Princess Shenyou is definitely not someone who is desperate on the battlefield and she is just watching from a distance. It might be more interesting to be with the princess next to the princess.

Yun Xingyue stretched out, reached out and patted Feng Sibei on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Feng, of course you are staying as an escort."

Feng Sibei blinked, "Guardian? Who?" The princess doesn't need him to be any guard.

"Me." Yun Xingyue pointed at herself for granted. Feng Sibei looked up and down seriously and asked, "Mr. Yun, do you want to be beaten by the princess after he did something? I can't beat the princess, so you should find someone else."

Yun Xingyue was speechless for a while and looked at Chu Ling not far away with her expression of heartache: A good young man, let's see what you have ruined?

Chu Ling walked over and glanced at Yun Xingyue in anger, and said to Feng Sibei: "Go and prepare, let's set off tonight." Feng Sibei's eyes lit up, "Don't the princess need to be in charge of the army?" Chu Ling smiled and said, "How many troops are divided? There is a big brother in Xinzhou who can't do anything for a while. Where can I sit in?" Yun Xingyue asked, "Then what are we going to do?" Chu Ling looked at Yun Xingyue up and down, shook his head with some disgust and said, "It's not us, it's me and Feng Sibei. If you can't, don't follow me, stay in Xinzhou well."

"..." Yun Xingyue was angry and stared at Chu Ling for a long time and couldn't speak. When he came to his senses, Chu Ling had already taken Feng Sibei away.

Chu Ling said that he only took Feng Sibei, but he left that night. Not to mention Yun Xingyue, even Zheng Luo didn't know their whereabouts.

In a forest somewhere in Runzhou, two people appeared lightly in the forest in the dark night.

Feng Sibei followed Chu Ling, and the faint moonlight passed through the gaps between the treetops and fell into the forest, barely able to see the faces of his predecessors clearly. Chu Ling was wearing black clothes, her hair was just raised at will, and the world-famous Moon Knife hung around her waist. She didn't look like a tall Princess Apocalypse, but she looked more like a heroic and heroic hero in the world. When she noticed Feng Sibei's gaze at him, Chu Ling looked up at him and said, "Sibei, what's wrong?"

Feng Sibei quickly shook his head and said, "No. Just... the princess isn't worried?" They have been leaving Xinzhou for three days, and they have been rushing to travel. They occasionally received some news from all over the place. Just as the Jingbei Army was about to go to war with the people of the Clan, wasn't the princess worried at all?

Chu Ling smiled and said, "I can't help if I stay. What's more, at the beginning... there should be no big problem, so it's better to let them practice by themselves. Let's take time to do something we can do." Feng Sibei nodded, looked ahead and stopped the trail: "It's here."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ling also stopped.

Feng Sibei whistled a few short whistles deep in the night, and a moment later, a slight sound of footsteps came to mind not far away. Several black shadows swayed in the night and ran towards them. Feng Sibei stood in front of Chu Ling, holding his right hand on the hilt of the sword and watching the figures from afar. In a short while, seven or eight men in black had already stood in front of him, "I have seen the princess." The few people whispered.

Chu Ling looked at them and nodded slightly and said, "No gift, thank you for your hard work."

The person in charge looked up and smiled, "The princess is so serious, it's all my duty." Under the moonlight, a young and smiling face appeared. It was Zhao Jilin. The people around Zhao Jilin were not Huang Jingxuan, who had always been with him, but Shangguan Yunru.

Chu Ling looked at them, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Why did Xiao Shi let you two come?"

Zhao Jilin didn't meet her and smiled and said, "Or who would the princess want to let? Huang Jingxuan wanted to come, but General Xiao said he wanted him to stay and give him some instructions."

Chu Ling thought about it. Although there are a few young generals with good strength in the Shenyou Army in recent years, these are still the more outstanding people in general. He nodded and Chu Ling asked, "How many people have come? How are I doing what I ordered?"

Shangguan Yunru and Taoism: "In addition to us, there are a total of 200 people. They are divided into seven teams and have been scattered in all parts of Runzhou."

Chu Ling said: "Let them all be careful."

Everyone agreed in unison.

Half an hour later, Zhao Jilin left with a few people, while Shangguan Yunru stayed with two people.

The five people walked out of the mountains and forests and headed towards the small town not far away. This was a small town not far from the southwest of Xinzhou on the border of Runzhou. There were no soldiers guarding the tribes, but there was a southern army of about five or six thousand people stationed outside the city. It happened to be the next morning when they entered the city. When the city gate opened, the five people walked in with the team entering the city.

Although Runzhou and Xinzhou are only a line of separation, they give people a completely different feeling. Especially Feng Sibei, who has lived in Xinzhou for several months, has a deeper feeling.

Xinzhou does not seem to be much different from Apocalypse, because the people of Apocalypse moved in in large numbers two years ago, and today Xinzhou is not even sparsely populated. In the past few months in Xinzhou, Feng Sibei almost thought that he was still on the land of Apocalypse.

But as soon as you step into Runzhou, you feel different immediately. Not to mention that sometimes you may not be able to see people all day long, even in this not-so-small city, it seems quite depressing. The people who come and go on the street are mixed with the Apocalypse, and even most of the Apocalypse’s clothes are changed to the Apocalypse. On their faces, they almost look down on hope and anger, only a hint of numbness and humility.

This made Feng Sibei and others feel very uncomfortable. Of course, Shangguan Yunru and the other two are not very big. Everyone has a background and Pingjing is the most prosperous place in the world. Have you ever seen such a situation?

"Mr....Young Master." Shangguan Yunru followed Chu Ling, watching several people from the tribe not far away snatching West from a stall of Anime, and they were not ready to give money at all. Although the stall owner and the people next to him were unwilling to accept it, they looked like they dared not speak out.

Chu Ling said lightly: "Don't worry."

Shangguan Yunru frowned slightly, and the literati's sense of justice made him feel a little impatient. Chu Ling glanced at him and said lightly: "Either you can solve this matter completely, or don't worry. Otherwise... can you control it for a while?"

"Yunru, listen to the young master." Feng Sibei whispered. He followed the princess all the way to Shangjing and came back from Shangjing. Of course, he had seen a lot of such things. Of course, he understood what Chu Ling meant.

Shangguan Yunru was not stupid either, but he was unwilling to accept it and had to grit his teeth and endure it. He also looked back at the two young men who were eager to move next to him and whispered: "Don't move!"

Chu Ling turned his head and said, "I didn't ask you to be a hero, remember what you are going to do."

"Yes, young master." The three of them whispered, turning their heads and not looking at the situation on the street.

A group of five people entered an inconspicuous teahouse in the city. They were greeted by the teahouse's staff and went upstairs into the innermost wing room. After a while, the teahouse's staff came in with tea, "I have seen the princess." Chu Ling nodded slightly and smiled: "You don't have to be polite, sit down and talk."

The shopkeeper bowed to Chu Ling again and then did it. Looking at the young men who were a little stunned, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "Princess, these..."

Chu Ling pointed at the people with a smile and said, "This is the young master of Feng Zheng, the commander of the Palace Front Commander, Feng Sibei. This is..."

The shopkeeper was worried, so he raised his eyebrows slightly and bowed to the few people, "All young talents, and they have long been famous."

Chu Ling smiled at the few people and said, "This is Mr. Qiu, the general manager of the Northern Jin Dynasty of Lingxiao Trading Company."

"The General Manager of the Northern Jin Dynasty of Lingxiao Trading Company?" Feng Sibei and Shangguan Yunru were both surprised. They were not surprised by the identity of Mr. Qiu, but his identity was actually the shopkeeper of an inn in such an inn in such an inconspicuous town.

Just looking at the familiar way the gentleman chatted with the guest when they came in just now, you know that he must not have just arrived. Those who control the business of Lingxiao Commercial Bank in the entire Northern Jin Dynasty alone have countless real money flowing through his hands every day. Will such a person actually hide in such a place?

Mr. Qiu calmly said, bowing and laughing: "It's all for the princess, so I'll make you laugh."

Chu Ling said: "Don't be so surprised. Mr. Qiu came here at the end of last year. Since we want to fight Runzhou, we can't be prepared for nothing, right?"

Feng Sibei admired him very much, "Princess, did you know so early that we were going to fight Runzhou?"

Chu Ling rolled her eyes and Shangguan Yunru responded faster, "It's the princess who wanted to attack Runzhou a long time ago?" So she prepared in advance. This time she just happened to have a good opportunity.

Chu Ling smiled but did not answer, but looked at Mr. Qiu and asked, "Mr. Qiu, what's the situation here?" Mr. Qiu bowed and said, "The princess's previous speculation was good. This place was not a must-fight place, and there were not many soldiers and horses stationed there, and they were all Southern Army. Since the news of the attack on Western Qin by the Cangyun people, Cangyun City has also begun to take many actions. The nearby elite soldiers were even pulled away, probably to guard against Cangyun City and Jingbei Army. So... the troops nearby are currently empty, and if the princess wants to take this place, the problem should not be big. Moreover, even if we conquer here, the troops in Runzhou should not have time to counterattack for a while."

Because this place has no great value, if it cannot be taken down from other places, even if they occupy this place, they will have to retreat by themselves sooner or later. If it is taken down from other places, even if they do not attack this place, the enemy here will sooner or later not be able to hold on.

Feng Sibei frowned slightly and said, "If so, princess... why should we bother to be in this place?" Since it is worthless, why did the princess make arrangements in this place a year ago? Feng Sibei does not think that the princess is just a casual arrangement of personnel, so there must be something important that they did not expect.

Chu Ling looked at Mr. Qiu with a smile and said, "Mr. Qiu asked me this question last year. I wonder if Mr. Qiu has the answer now?"

Mr. Qiu smiled and said, "It is true that his subordinates are short-sighted and cannot be more conceived than the princess."

Chu Ling shook her head and said, "Mr. Qiu is so serious, I just happened."

Feng Sibei and Shangguan Yunru didn't know what the mystery they were fighting. They were a little anxious to know, but could only look at the two of them. Looking at their appearance, Mr. Qiu couldn't help but laugh and shook his head and said, "The two young men don't know that Taihe has not been an important place since ancient times. The land is barren and sparse, and it is far away from the official road and Runzhou Prefecture City. It is really inconspicuous. But... there are many good things hidden under the ground of Taihe."

"Good thing?" Feng Sibei and Shangguan Yunru looked at each other, and Shangguan Yunru hesitated and said, "Is it a gold mine?"

If it is a gold mine, it is indeed a good thing. After all, no matter what you do, you cannot do without money. But there should be no rush, right? Mr. Qiu shook his head with a smile and said, "Of course not, it's stone fat."

Lithium, that is, petroleum.

Feng Sibei and Shangguan Yunru were also people with some knowledge, so they naturally knew what Mr. Qiu was talking about. But they still couldn't understand what he meant. Shangguan Yunru frowned and said, "Isn't that thing... used to make fires and lights? What's the use? And I heard that it's quite troublesome to do, and we don't lack firewood now."

Feng Sibei's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Chu Ling. Chu Ling looked at him with a smile and asked, "Sibei, what do you think?"

Feng Sibei thought for a while and whispered: "Princess...does it meant to deal with the people and navy soldiers on the Lingcang River?" Thinking of this, Feng Sibei's face turned slightly pale. The princess wanted to... burn those people to death?

Almost the entire line of the north bank of Lingcang River was occupied by the Cangyun City and Jingbei Army, and even Cangyun City and Jingbei Army were unable to gain any advantage. Because neither armies had enough troops to guard the Lingcang River, the Lingcang River was very long and needed a large number of troops to guard it. Although the Cang tribe itself did not have enough troops, the Southern Army had it. Therefore, 70% of the Southern Army stationed along the Lingcang River were the Southern Army.

The Northern Jin people built defensive fortresses along the Lingcang River. Each fortress sent heavy troops to garrison, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack. There was also a naval army composed of the Southern Army on the river at any time. It was the original naval army of the Apocalypse who had originally surrendered to the Clans. In this way, the Clans could cross the river to reach the Clans at any time, but it was even more difficult for the Clans to come over.

In recent years, the Apocalypse has also learned from the Citizens to build defensive fortresses by the river. However, the river bank on the south bank is flat, there are too many places to be stationed, and there are too many loopholes to exploit. In fact, the defense ability is far less powerful than that of the Northern Jin Dynasty.

And that navy army was stationed in Runzhou!

Chu Ling looked at Feng Sibei with a smile, as if he didn't see his pale face, and said, "If you don't clean up those naval armies, how can the Shenyou Army cross the river?" The Shenyou Army is not two or three. If you don't clean up the river, even if there are enough ships, you will be killed directly by someone in the center of the river. Feng Sibei said, "So... the princess's stone fat is to deal with the Northern Jin naval armies? Use... to burn?"

Chu Ling asked, "What is the difference between using fire and using swords?"

"..." Feng Sibei was silent, as if there was no difference, but for some reason he felt a little creepy when he thought of that situation. It seemed that it was even more chilling than asking him to take the weapon to cut someone down with his own hands.

Mr. Qiu looked at the scene with a smile, and didn't say much. Chu Ling asked, "What are the achievements of Mr. Qiu this year?"

Mr. Qiu said: "A few days ago, we have found several places where we can pick slate fat. We have refined some of the methods provided by the princess. It's very good to extract them. But... it's a bit difficult to mine, which is quite time-consuming and labor-intensive, so there is not much."

Chu Ling nodded to express her understanding that all-management mining was not a big deal. If she hadn't had many soldiers in her hands now, she wouldn't have made such a trick. Although she was not a superstitious person, she looked calm when facing Feng Sibei. But I have to say that she didn't want to use such a method too much. In the words of her previous life... it violated the spirit of humanitarianism and war conventions, and in the words of today... it hurts the world. But now, she has no other way. It is better to die from enemies than to die from their own people.

"How many are there now?" Chu Ling asked.

Mr. Qiu said: "About sixty or seventy barrels have been accumulated, and it is still a little different from the amount the princess needs. In addition, it is also a bit troublesome to transport this thing. Although Taihe is not far from Lingcang River, it is also a bit far away. Our manpower is probably..." Not enough.

Chu Ling smiled and said, "Aren't there five or six thousand people outside this city? I will take down the territory first and then get someone to drive it away. I won't have too much, one hundred barrels should be enough. I'm not planning to burn the entire Lingcang River, as long as I get rid of the navy along Runzhou, it will be done."

The terrain is also of a dangerous terrain. If it is on the south bank, even if she conquered the defenders and naval forces along Runzhou, she would immediately come to reinforce in less than two days. However, on the north bank, many places along the river, not even if they are garrisoned, even if they are out of the way, they would either send reinforcements from the river or cross the entire Runzhou directly from Huizhou or Suzhou to block the back. I believe that after she sets a fire, the remaining naval forces in the Northern Jin Dynasty may not dare to go into the water easily.

Mr. Qiu thought for a while and said, "If everything goes well, there should be no problem. Then, when is the princess planning to take down Taihe City?"

Chu Ling said: "It's getting better and better, it's better not to leak the news. Although Tarkqin may not have the ability to take care of this place now, the less attention it will be, the better."

Mr. Qiu nodded and said, "I understand, I will go and arrange it immediately."
