The Bandit’s Strategy

Chapter 190: Try a flute

[Chapter 190-Try to blow a flute] Zhao Da is very good at home

"If I didn't make a mistake, there will be heavy fog in this area in three days." Wen Liunian spread out the map on the table, "Plus the current trend of the sea, the armored warship can easily approach Baiwu Island."

"My lord wants a sneak attack?" Ye Jin asked.

"It's not counted," Wen Liunian said, "The current situation on the island is unclear. It is too risky for the army to travel rashly. Moreover, the armored boat is extremely light and can only carry more than ten people at most. So I want to take advantage of the whiteness. When it's foggy, go to the island to see what's going on."

"My lord is going to Baiwu Island?" Mu Qingshan was surprised.

Wen Liunian nodded.

Chu Yuan frowned: "This move is too risky, I won't agree."

"The master also agrees with the adults to do this?" Ye Jin asked.

Zhao Yue said: "I will protect him."

"What if there is a danger?" Ye Jin also disagrees.

"I won't be here." Zhao Yue said, "If I can't be sure that I can bring him back safely, I won't agree."

"Even if you really want to spy, Ai Qing doesn't have to go there in person." Chu Yuan glanced at Duan Baiyue.

The Southwestern King said with interest: "This king is going."

Ye Jin: "..."

"Since there is a maze in Beisha Bay, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no on Baiwu Island. Moreover, only the Weichen personally comes to the island to find a way to defeat the bereavement bird as soon as possible." Wen Liunian said, "I also ask the emperor to promise."

"Tell me, if they are discovered by the other party, how do the master and Ai Qing plan to get out?" Chu Yuan asked.

"Kill out." Zhao Yue said, "There is a deserted island near Baiwu Island. The iron-clad ship only needs to dock at the shore. I will use the wind wings to take Xiaoliuzi and leave Baiwu Island."

"Rely on the wind?" Ye Jin widened his eyes, "What if there is no wind?"

"No." Wen Liunian shook his head firmly, "I have checked a lot of ancient books these days. The wind and tide are regular, and there will be a southeast wind!"

"Tell me about your plan." Chu Yuan said, "If it's not a perfect solution, I still won't agree."

Wen Liunian took out a stack of paper from his sleeve, and it was densely written on it. Not only the ocean current changes, the wind direction, but also the ship's docking position and the method of getting out. There is a cliff near Baiwu Island. If it is really discovered by the enemy, even without the help of wind wings and relying on Zhao Yue's force, it will be enough to bring him up to the cliff safely. At that time, the Chu army will send a warship to cover it. Wei drove the boat to respond, and he should be able to escape safely.

"Of course, this is the worst possibility." Wen Liunian said, "If nothing happens, wind wings are enough."

"I will go with the adults." Ye Jin said.

"The Lord Gu doesn't have to go there in person, but he does want to help." Wen Liunian squeezed his chin with a thoughtful look on his face.

Everyone in the room glanced at each other, and they couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

Three days later, there was a huge fog on the sea. Chu Yuan sent a vanguard, led by the lieutenant himself, to break through the wind and waves and approach Baiwu Island with great fanfare, while the three iron-clad battleships sailed from the flanks under the cover of the big ship. destination.

On the battlefield for the first time in his life, Wen Liunian inevitably felt a little nervous.

Zhao Yue took him into his arms: "Don't be afraid."

"Naturally not afraid." Master Wen was quite bold, and even planned to chant a poem.

Zhao Yue smiled and lowered his head to print a kiss on his forehead.

Wen Liunian blushed, slightly embarrassed.

The sailor looked into the distance with firm eyes to show that he hadn't seen anything.

So Master Wen stood on tiptoe again and kissed the corner of his mouth.

For this kind of thing, it is fair to have back and forth naturally.

After receiving a pass from the guards saying that a Chu Army battleship suddenly appeared in the sea ahead, Qing Qiu was very vigilant and personally led his army out to the sea to fight, but he did not see the opponent approaching for a long time, but kept staying not far away. In the vast white fog, it was hard to see how many troops the opponent had come. Qing Qiu didn't dare to act rashly, so he ordered the whole army to strengthen its guard to prevent the opponent from suddenly launching an offensive.

The three armored warships were quietly anchored on the shore. A few black shadows descended from above, moving quickly like ghosts, almost disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.

In the main camp of the Chu army, Father Sixi exchanged a cool tea for Chu Yuan and cautiously said: "The emperor, it's time to rest."

"Can there be movement outside?" Chu Yuan rubbed his eyebrows.

"Back to the emperor, the outside is calm and peaceful." Sixi was fair and fair, "Zhao Da is a master of martial arts, and there are young heroes in the chasing shadow palace to help. Adults should not have troubles on this trip. The emperor should not worry too much."

Chu Yuan nodded, got up and wanted to go out to blow the hair, but saw Duan Baiyue was guarding outside, so he instinctively glanced at both sides.

Duan Baiyue said: "Master Ye Gu has fallen asleep."

Chu Yuan: "..."

Duan Baiyue smiled and handed him a seashell.

"What is it?" Chu Yuan frowned.

"It will shine." Duan Baiyue said.

"So what." Chu Yuan turned and walked towards the cabin.

"No, I just think it looks good, so I want to get it for you." Duan Baiyue replied calmly.

Sixi father-in-law stopped, respectfully guarding outside.

"Get out." Chu Yuan didn't even glance at him.

"Watching you rest and I will leave." Duan Baiyue twisted the handkerchief for him and handed it over.

Chu Yuan stretched out his hand to pick it up, but as soon as he grasped his wrist, he snapped his eyebrows and attacked.

Duan Baiyue didn't hide, but took advantage of the flow, dragging Chu Yuan staggered.

"Be careful." Duan Baiyue hugged him, his breath almost falling to the ear.

Chu Yuan clenched a small white porcelain bottle tightly in his hand and looked at him coldly.

Duan Baiyue said calmly: "Take it away."

"Let go of me." Chu Yuan's tone was cold.

"How about changing to a dagger next time?" Duan Baiyue suggested, as long as you don't use this bottle of medicine, you can stabbing a few times anywhere.

Chu Yuan broke away from his arms, the movement was a little loud, and the boat with him shook slightly.

"The emperor." Grandpa Si Xi reminded in a low voice from outside, "This ship is connected to Master Ye Gu's ship with an iron chain." So if you sway for a while and wake up Master Ye Gu, I'm afraid...cough.

After a while, Duan Baiyue came out of the cabin with three shoe prints on her body, but she was in a good mood.

"The King of the Southwest walks slowly." Father Sixi watched his nose and his heart, knowing where to look.

The whole night passed quickly, and there was still no abnormality in the surroundings, only the sound of waves hitting the land.

"I don't know what the adults are doing on the island." Ye Jin worried.

"Adults have always been meticulous in doing things, but you don't have to worry too much." Shen Qianfeng said, "The person who should be worried should be Qingqiu." Not to mention that Zhao Yue is now a master of martial arts. A group of secret guards chasing the Shadow Palace is enough to cause everyone a headache...

When the sky was about to become clear, the center of the sea suddenly blew the horn, and the rebels instantly became energetic. They thought that the Chu army was going to attack, but they did not expect that after hearing the sound of the horn, the entire fleet would actually turn its sails towards the way forward. Returned.

"What exactly does Chu Yuan want to do?" Chu Cheng said fiercely, "Pretending to be a ghost." After Qingqiu rescued him from Chu Yuan that day, the two reached an agreement to advance and retreat together to achieve a major event.

"If we haven't figured out the other party's purpose, we will not rush into battle." Qing Qiu said, "There are Shen Qianfan and Wen Liunian in the army, you and I must not be careless."

"Why don't you release the funeral bird?" Chu Cheng asked.

"There are only a dozen of them on the island, and not every battle can be used." Qingqiu said, "In order to save the son of the world, one was already lost. This time, before I saw Chu Yuan, these small fishes and shrimps , It’s not yet a turn to use the mourning bird."

Chu Cheng nodded, and said nothing.

The scope of Baiwu Island is extremely large. It is obviously not enough to survey everywhere by the more than ten people who secretly landed on the island last night. However, they did not intend to find out all at once. They just followed Wen Liunian's previous instructions to find the source of fresh water. They were all sprinkled with powder, and when the night came, they withdrew to the place where the warship was hidden, and drove away quietly. Of course, there were four or five unlucky ghosts on the ship, all of whom were knocked unconscious, and easy to take. Go back for interrogation.

On the other side of the island, Wen Liunian was lying behind the boulder, looking forward nervously.

Zhao Yue is funny: "His head is hiding well, but his **** is outside."

Master Wen quickly moved.

"Still not afraid?" Zhao Yue asked.

Wen Liunian thought for a while, and honestly said: "A little bit." So I have to coax.

Zhao Yue squeezed his chin and leaned in to kiss him. There was a scream of "quack" not far away, especially in the dark night.

"If there are only a dozen of them in total, it is not enough to be afraid." Wen Liunian said, "As long as it is not in the hundreds, it shouldn't pose too much threat to the Chu army."

"Go." There was a faint wind in the distance, and Zhao Yue led him to jump into a rocky mountain and handed Yu Xiao over.

Wen Liunian calmed himself down, slowly blowing a tactful tone. Although the sound of the flute is not great, it is reverberated and refracted by the surrounding mountains and boulders, and it is clear enough to spread in the night sky.

The name of this mountain is Jiuhuiyin, and Wen Liunian accidentally learned about it in the basic ancient book, and never thought it would come in handy.

Above the boundless sea, the Chu State fleet appeared again bizarrely, not advancing or retreating like the previous night, facing the rebels at a distance. Chu Cheng vaguely heard the sound of the flute in front of the battle, and it was Qing Qiu who was about to launch an offensive. He was about to send someone to ask, but a defender hurriedly reported that outsiders had been mixed in on the island, making Chu Cheng bound to guard the waterway.

"But Chu Yuan's people?" Chu Cheng asked.

"The subordinates don't know, the master has already checked." Shouguan said, "As soon as there is news, I will report it immediately."

"Who is playing the flute?" Qing Qiu asked in a desperate manner with raging torches burning all over the island.

"It should be in Jiuhuiyin. I don't know how it came from. I have already sent more people to search. But there are echoes everywhere in the huge boulders in the mountain. I'm afraid it's hard to find." Move the flock of birds elsewhere first?"

The heavy iron chains creaked, and more than a dozen giant birds were bewitched by the sound of the flute. They were all anxious and wanted to break free. When the wings were waving, the huge wind brought up almost everyone who approached them.

Qing Qiu took out a short flute, trying to suppress the other's voice, but there was already a mourning bird that broke away from the chain and flew into the air, flapping its wings towards the source of the flute.

"It's really useful." Wen Liunian was proud of hearing the screams coming from the night sky.

"What to do, I can't run away." Zhao Yue squeezed his nose, "At least there are hundreds of people here."

There was a lot of noise outside, and the fire was about to ignite the entire mountain. Wen Liunian moved forward and said, "Then kiss first."

Zhao Yue was amused, and just about to take him to Gaogang, a dark shadow suddenly swept over his head.

"It's a mourning bird." Wen Liunian was surprised.

"Grab it!" someone yelled.

The mourning bird hovered over again, with a chain and wooden stake hanging from the ankle.

"Can you attract it?" Zhao Yue had a new idea in his heart.

"It should be possible." Wen Liunian nodded, "What do you want to do?"

"Don't use wind wings, let it take us out of the island." Zhao Yue said.

Wen Liunian was surprised: "Can you?"

"You can lead it over." Zhao Yue said.

Wen Liunian held Yuxiao to calm down, then took a deep breath and started blowing again, the sound was louder than before.

The mourning bird really turned back in the air, leaning over and rushing down.

Qing Qiu saw the clue, and led the men and horses straight to their hiding place. Zhao Yue hugged Wen Liunian tightly. When the mourning bird was about to land, he leaped and steadily landed on its back, with his right hand stuck on its neck like a sharp claw, and the mourning bird screamed while eating pain, flapping its wings and flying high. go with.

Wen Liunian's heartbeat almost jumped out with the sound of the wind in his ears, and Zhao Yue whispered in his ear: "Don't be afraid."

Since, naturally, I am not afraid! Master Wen took a deep breath, carefully opened his eyes a slit, and saw the flame spreading below him, and he no longer knew how high he flew.

Zhao Yue hugged him tighter again.

Master Wen Liunian closed his eyes tightly again.

Urgency.

The bereavement bird screamed hoarsely in the air. At first, he wanted to shake the person off his back, but was hit by Zhao Yue on the top of his skull. The pain and dizziness made him lose seven points of dominance, and he was dizzy. He was pulled by the feathers between his neck and maneuvered to fly into the distance.

The signal flare rose from the other side of the sea. The Chu Army warship got the order and turned around to withdraw. Chu Cheng, who had been guarding the whole night, was confused and hurried to look for Qing Qiu, but saw that his face was pale and he was still standing in chaos. In the stone mountain.

"Who did it?" Chu Cheng asked.

Qingqiu almost dripped blood in his eyes.

"I don't know where the other party came from, but he has already mastered the art of manipulating the mourning bird." The adjutant explained in a low voice. I'm exhausted, my feet hurt when I'm struggling, I'm afraid I will have to take care of it for a while."

Chu Cheng heard that his brows were frowned, and he was about to ask a few more questions, but he received a report from his subordinates saying that several water sources on the island were abnormal.

"What?" Qing Qiu was shocked when he heard the words, and Chu Cheng's heart sank. One of the reasons why Baikiri Island is easy to defend and attack is that the fresh water on the island is sufficient, no matter how long it takes, but now if the water source is polluted, there is only one way to go.

The sunlight was very strong, and the grass by the water source was shining brightly with a silver-blue luster, which seemed to be a little cautious.

Everyone knows that Ye Jin is a genius doctor and a master of poison. Although it is still unclear who the uninvited guest who broke in last night was, almost all of them are from Chu Yuan, looking at the glittering powder floating on the water. , Qingqiu's face became more and more gloomy, and the surrounding subordinates became more and more silent.

"Go and count how many places have been drugged." Chu Cheng ordered, "The rest of the water sources will be well protected."

"Yes." The subordinate hurriedly left, and returned a few hours later to report that there were still seven water sources on the island that were not damaged.

Chu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that the situation was not out of control.

"There's another thing." The subordinate said cautiously, "Just now the battalions counted the troops and found that there were five missing."

And where these five people are now, naturally you don't have to think about it.

The boat swayed, and the guard squatted around with his cheeks, feeling quite guilty.

The beating was too heavy, and I still haven't woken up yet.

Wen Liunian was grilling fish on the bank next to him. The smell was very attractive.

The secret guard sniffed: "My lord also brought a pepper out?"

"Yes." Wen Liunian applied the seasoning carefully and swallowed.

The secret guard said: "I don't know if the bird can eat it."

Wen Liunian immediately looked disgusted and turned to look at Zhao Yue.

"The Gu poison is raised, I'm afraid I can't eat it." Zhao Yue stepped over, "The blood is all black.

"It's a pity that the boat is too small to be taken back together." The dark guard was very sorry, "Otherwise the Lord Ye Gu would like it." It was dark and full of hair, decisively in line with the owner's preference.

"If you haven't slept all night, you should be tired." Zhao Yue whispered to Wen Liunian, "After eating, I will sleep for a while before a boat will pick you up after noon."

"Yeah." Wen Liunian leaned in his arms, feeling even proud.

Riding a black giant bird to kill out in a rain of arrows is almost three points more exciting than a small story.

"What are you happy about?" Zhao Yue was a little funny.

Wen Liunian rubbed his chest, his eyes gleaming: "You are amazing."

"I know now?" Zhao Yue squeezed his nose.

Master Wen lay on his shoulders, and the rascal teased in a low voice: "Back in the cave, you were also very good."

Zhao Yue's expression became stiff, and he stretched out his hand to pat his back.

Wen Liunian didn't know why, he felt that his voice was small and no one should have heard him, so he was still laughing secretly.

The surrounding guards looked solemn and stared at the five hapless prisoners of war, who were very good for the country and the people.

We really didn't intend to eavesdrop on purpose, but there is nothing we can do if martial arts are too good.

Sir, you go on to say...
