"This canister of smoke is worthy of a mage's sacrifice? What a luxury."

"Ordinary wolf smoke cannot be transmitted when encountering strong winds. What's more, it will also be blocked by witchcraft. This method of refining wolf smoke is not only dark and stable, but also interferes with witchcraft, allowing people further away to perceive it."

"I hope it won't be used."

"Yes, new canisters of smoke have been distributed to all the troops guarding the river. I hope they will never be used."

"However, the higher-ups now use communication talismans to communicate, and they have not used the beacon for many years. This thing is only suitable for close range and small teams to call for help."

"It's because the smoke canister is rarely used. Once it is used, it will be a disaster."

"With those powerful mechanisms and exploding talisman cylinders, you are not afraid of the demon clan at all!"

"I'm not afraid of ordinary monsters, I'm afraid of super-class ones..."

After the team passed by, Li Qingxian continued to patrol at night, recording the things that needed praise or shortcomings, and let people keep them or correct them tomorrow.

After the midnight inspection, Li Qingxian was just about to go to bed when the messenger talisman rang, and he saw it was Song Yanxue.

"Qingxian, are you there? How is Taigu City? I'm on duty today and want to know about the situation in the north."

Song Yanxue took care of herself a lot back then. Later, she left Ye Wei and went to the south. It is said that she joined the King of Jin, but she has not been in contact with him for a long time.

"Sister Yanxue, I'm fine now, how about you?"

"Everything is fine."

Li Qingxian noticed that Song Yanxue's tone was a little low.

So, Li Qingxian first slowly told about his experience along the river, and finally asked: "Tell me what happened after you went to the south?"

Song Yanxue said: "At first, I thought I could go into battle and kill the enemy... Who knew that when I came into contact, I would find that they were either innocent ordinary people, or elite soldiers from the southern countries or even the Dongding Kingdom. Both sides were human races. What a feeling. ...Well, anyway, I have asked the King of Jin for help many times, hoping that he can transfer me to the river guarding army. But he never allowed it, saying that my family wanted me to go south just to prevent me from dying in the battlefield... In fact, in Jin The king's men are very good, and the Dingnan army is also good. As for the crazy king's army, it's really a mess... You didn't come here, so you don't know what happened. I personally heard the King of Jin say that he so-called hundreds of millions of taels of silver to help friendly countries. , 90% of them were detained in the country under various excuses, and only 10% went to them..."

Song Yanxue chattered about things in the south. In the end, even if many things were taboo, she would speak out.

Li Qingxian could tell that this usually cold-blooded general was really holding back, otherwise he wouldn't be nagging him so much.

Li Qingxian listened, occasionally interjecting questions, and gradually learned about the war situation in the south.

If the battle line in the northern river is cruel, then there is only one word for the southern battle, disgusting.

Song Yanxue even suspected that the reason for the war against the south was that the Mad King's Army and other related forces suffered too much deficit, and the accounts were really unfair, so they could only settle the accounts in this way.

Li Qingxian thought it was an underworld joke at first, but when he thought about the source of some of the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce's money, he couldn't laugh.

Finally, Song Yanxue couldn't hold it any longer and said: "Qingxian, you know that I, Song Yanxue, rarely ask for help. Can you think of a way to transfer me to the north? It's okay under your command. I really don't want to fight with the human race." Kill each other.”

Li Qingxian was hesitant. Song Yanxue was not just a person, but also represented the family power behind him.

What's more, the front line of the river is too brutal. Even if Song Yanxue is about to be promoted to the third rank, it will still be very dangerous.

When fighting against the southern countries in the south, even if they were defeated, once the other party saw Song Yanxue's identity, they would not dare to wait any longer and would at most demand a ransom to send him back.

But meeting the demon clan is completely different.

Song Yanxue said again: "I told the truth, you can't tell others. I found that King Jin has been a little strange recently. He curses people every day. He even said very strange things when summoning the generals for a meeting. He asked us, if the general Wang If he rebels, he will rebel too, and we will follow suit. His veteran generals looked at him very calmly at that time, and we new generals were frightened. Although King Jin is known as a brainless warrior among princes, he is not stupid, otherwise he would not We have come to this point, but his support for the General Wang is too strong. I really doubt that he would dare to rebel if there was any movement in the river guard army."

"Can't you? I do know that King Jin grew up with the General King, and he respects the General King the most. In his eyes, the General King is closer to him than anyone else today, but he won't be the opposite."

"The Jin King's Army has been getting more and more wrong in the past few months. It has sent fewer and fewer troops, but it interferes with the Mad King's Army in everything. All the signs make me feel uncomfortable, but it is difficult to tell my family. Moreover, some people say that today I want to take action against the river guards, which may be the reason why King Jin is angry."

"I've heard this news too, but it's not aimed at the River Guard Army. It seems to be targeting the Old King's Army."

"There aren't many left in the old royal army, so why...that's all, it's all the royal family's business, and we can't interfere. But, I really regret coming to the south."

"Aren't you afraid that you will regret coming to my place?"

"I regret it, but at least I can kill monsters. In addition, you have to be careful about that maggot Lu Han. I heard the old man at Night Guard say that he is probably dealing with you. He has just punished a few people close to you in the past two days. "

"Really? I haven't received any news yet..." Li Qingxian's eyes gradually turned cold.

"Also, Zhao Fu may become an official, so be prepared."

"I've heard about it a long time ago."

"It's okay for him to leave the court, but he's afraid that he will make some big moves in the future that will endanger you. Most of us know what Xie Linfu and Neichang are targeting you. Alas, how could he destroy the Great Wall himself?"

"I'm ready. As long as I delay for a while, I will be promoted to the first rank, and everything will be easy to talk about."

"Speaking of the first rank, I heard that the Mirror Demon Empress is also in Taigu City?"

"yes."

"I've heard about her and the Great General King. It's quite pitiful. There are rumors that she was actually pregnant with the Great General King's child. In the end, the Great General King killed the baby in order to prevent his child from being born in a demon sect. It doesn’t feel real to me.”

Li Qingxian was stunned for a moment. He remembered the gold necklace that the Mirror Demon Empress had given him before, and took it out to look at it.

"It probably wasn't the General Wang who did it. He's not that kind of person. I heard that it was an accident. Anyway, it was probably the child's death that caused the Mirror Demon Empress and the General Wang to have no contact with each other. Alas."

"I don't think so. It's no exaggeration to say that people like General Wang, Gao Tiankuo, and Master Du could have saved the world. They wouldn't have done such a thing... Well, it's possible for Master Po, but there's no reason for him to do that. Do……"

"After all, he is a poison strategist. No matter what he does, there will be no surprises."

"Speaking of which, you should also be careful of the poisonous military master. He is not only poisonous to the demon clan, but also poisonous to the river guarding army, and also to friendly forces. All the armies surrounding the river guarding army have been used by him. He only cares about maximizing profits and does not care. How big the loss is, it’s a headache.”

"Haha, even if I cooperate with him, I will guard against him seven points."

"You are in a big river now, which is much more dangerous than me. Take care of yourself. Also, be careful of the court."

Li Qingxian thanked Song Yanxue and pondered her last words.
