Chapter 1017 1017. Find the old address of Nalan's house

  It was snowing, flakes of salt-white snowflakes falling from the sky.

"Snowing-"

   After finishing the work, Chu Qingzhi was resting in the tent, when she heard the voice coming out of the tent, she frowned as she looked at the fluffy white snow.

  Snowy weather is not suitable for fighting. If we wait until next year to fight, more than 300,000 soldiers will consume too much. With the character of that lunatic Xia Yunjian, he will definitely use all his troops to fight again, so there will be a life-and-death battle in the near future.

   Try to see if you can stop the next big battle.

  There is a very simple method, which is to make all the military rations disappear. Without the military rations, the morale of the army will be broken, and there will be no more wars.

  After dark, Chu Qingzhi sneaked into the tent where the rations were stored, and sank the rations inside into the ground.

  There are six storage places for military rations in the barracks. Chu Qingzhi sunk all the rations in these six places into the ground one by one, then left and returned to Tangying.

  She had to tell Tang Jinghong about it quickly and let him deal with it.

  She is not good at marching and fighting, and such things should be left to professional people.

  Seeing Chu Qingzhi coming back, Tang Jinghong quickly fetched a cloak and put it on Chu Qingzhi, "Is it cold?"

   "It's not cold." Chu Qingzhi cupped Tang Jinghong's face with her hands. Her hands were dry and warm, and waves of warmth spread into Tang Jinghong's skin.

   "Sit for a while, you have worked hard during this time." Tang Jinghong took a blanket and put it on the chair, letting Chu Qingzhi sit.

  Chu Qingzhi said to Tang Jinghong, "I have hidden all the rations for the summer camp. You should make arrangements earlier."

   This is simply the best news Tang Jinghong has ever heard, "I'll make arrangements right away."

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "Yes."

  Chu Qingning heard that Chu Qingzhi was back, and immediately came to see her, "Fifth Sister, are you okay? Have you encountered any danger?"

  Chu Qingzhi smiled slightly, "I'm fine, fine."

  Chu Qingning was extremely worried, "It's good that it's okay, are you hungry? Is it cold? Shall I cook you something to eat?"

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Let's go to the city to eat together."

   "Okay." The two sisters left the barracks together and headed for Liangcheng.

  …

   Summer camp.

  Xia Yunjian roared, "What are you eating? What about the military rations? So much military rations disappeared overnight, could it be a ghost?"

  All the generals were silent like cicadas, this matter was indeed evil, and some veteran generals who had experienced many battles felt panicked.

  Xia Yunjian glared at everyone, "Talk, everyone is dumb?"

  Xia Qi cupped his hands, "His Royal Highness, the most urgent task is to solve the problem of military rations. If there is no military rations, we must withdraw immediately, otherwise Tang Jinghong will attack and the consequences will be disastrous!"

  Xia Yunjian didn't understand this truth, but it was too aggrieved for him to withdraw like this, "Check, send everyone out for me to check!"

  Xia Qi responded, "Yes, Your Highness."

  At this time, the deputy general came up with an idea, "His Royal Highness, you may not be able to find military rations, but I know that there must be military rations in a certain place."

  Xia Yunjian asked eagerly, "Where?"

  The lieutenant general said, "Tang Ying!"

   In a word, everyone’s heart suddenly became clear, yes, the problem with their rations must be caused by people from the Tang camp, and it is only natural to rob them of their rations.

  Xia Yunjian shouted, "Get ready, send troops!"

   Soon after, the horn sounded.

  Chu Qingzhi and Chu Qingning had just eaten, and when they heard the sound of the horn, they hurried back to the camp.

  Chu Qingzhi secretly thought that she only thought that Xia Yunjian would retreat because of lack of food and grass, but she didn't think that he would fight his back because of this, and she made a mistake.

  …

   Tang Ying.

  General Chen said worriedly, "General Tang, it is a good thing that the summer camp has no food and grass. Given Xia Yunjian's character, he will not give up easily."

  Tang Jinghong stared at the sand table and said, "Xia Yunjian has two choices now, one is to fight to the death, and the other is to retreat. I agree with General Chen. With Xia Yunjian's character, he will definitely choose to fight to the death..."

   Pausing for a moment, he spoke again, "Listen, all officers and men!"

   "General Chen led 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 soldiers to the left flank to ambush."

   "Meng Shengdong led 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 soldiers to the right flank to ambush."

   "Xia Lanfeng led 30,000 soldiers through the Orchid Valley, and quietly touched the summer camp. When the time comes, you will attack from behind and use the burning of the tents as a signal."

   "..."

  A series of complicated arrangements came out of Tang Jinghong's mouth, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.

   All the soldiers responded in unison, "Yes, General."

  At this time, the horn sounded, and everyone looked at each other. It was Xia Ying who was preparing to dispatch troops. The soldiers of Tang Ying immediately led their troops to leave the barracks according to the arrangement.

  Chu Qingzhi came to the tent, "Jing Hong."

  Tang Jinghong had already changed his armor and was about to leave the camp for the battle. She brought Chu Qingzhi over and hugged her, "The last match, you can rest after the fight."

  Chu Qingzhi kissed Tang Jinghong, "I wish you a triumphant return!"

   "Definitely." Tang Jinghong let go of Chu Qingzhi, picked up his helmet and left the camp. After gathering the soldiers, he left the barracks.

  Chu Qingzhi stood in front of the barracks and watched them off.

  Chu Qingning came over and stood beside Chu Qingzhi, "Brother Jing Hong will definitely return safely."

  Chu Qingzhi turned to look at Chu Qingning, "Fourth Sister, I'm going to the battlefield, fighting with Jing Hong!"

  Chu Qingning understood Chu Qingzhi's heart, "Fourth Sister supports you."

   At this time, a letter was delivered, "The old address of Nalan's house was found."

  After reading it, Chu Qingzhi decided to go to Nalan's house to get the jade seal of the first emperor first, and then come to the battlefield to help Tang Jinghong, "Fourth sister, if you are in danger, go and hide in the place I told you, understand?"

  Chu Qingning nodded, "I remember."

  Chu Qingzhi flew directly to Liangcheng.

  …

   Liangcheng.

  Chu Qingzhi changed into Chu Tang's appearance and came to a courtyard, Su Liangwei and Duan Ting stood at the gate of the courtyard waiting for her, "Master."

  Chu Tang glanced at the two of them, and said bluntly, "Take me to the former address of Nalan's house!"

   "Master, please!" Su Liangwei led Chu Tang to another courtyard.

  Walking on the way, Chu Tang asked, "Where's Lu Ziming?"

  Su Liangwei pointed to the right direction and said, "We have already killed him, the body is over there."

  Chu Qingzhi turned her head to look, and saw several corpses lying in the grass, one of them was undoubtedly Su Liangwei.

  Chu Tang paused, "What about Jiang Zhaoyong and Shang Zixing?"

  Su Liangwei said, "They have already entered the old site."

   While talking, a group of people came to the small pavilion in the garden, where a hole was made, and there were many people standing around, all of them were Su Liangwei's subordinates.

   "How did you find this place?" Chu Tang was a little curious, and without any equipment, how did he know that this was the entrance?

  Su Liangwei explained, "Duan Ting went to investigate in the lake and found a stone engraved with runes. That's how we touched this place."

  Chu Tang walked to the entrance of the cave and went down to have a look. The cave was a bit deep, about two feet long, and it was pitch black, so he couldn’t see clearly. “I’ll go down and have a look.”
