Chapter 117
Li Shou originally thought that after this small mission was over, he would get a moment of peace—after all, even if the native and Fang Yi wanted to take revenge, they had to wait until their injuries healed.

But things backfired.

On the fifth day after the Qingwu Mountain Villa incident, Yanwu County of Qing Country launched an attack on Changping County of Zhou State.

Although there have been constant frictions on the border between Zhou State and Qing State in the past few years, the war has never really stopped.

However, most of Qingguo's attacks are just small-scale attacks of the nature of military training, and large-scale attacks only come once every few months.

But this attack was very tragic. On the day of the attack, it is said that thousands of people died.

"It seems that Qingguo has made up their minds. Regardless of whether Qingwu Villa succeeds or not, we will launch a general attack this time." Inside the Cao Mansion, Li Shou and Juehuang were talking in the tea room.

Since Li Shou came last time, Juehuang's status in the Cao family has been higher, and after the Qingwu Villa incident, his status has risen again.

Although he is still a son-in-law, he can move about freely and entertain guests as he pleases—this is a great improvement compared to the past. Before Li Shou came for the first time, he was even at risk of being assassinated.

"How's the situation at the border?" Li Shou came here today to inquire about news, and to send something to Emperor Jue.

"There are rumors outside that Zhou Guo's army is fighting well...but the actual situation is not so good."

In modern warfare, ordinary people with mobile phones and the Internet do not know the specific situation of the war. They only read all kinds of news from propaganda outlets, and it is difficult to distinguish true from false.

In this ancient world, the rumors outside are even more unbelievable.

Fortunately, Juehuang was in the Cao Mansion, and many of the Cao Mansion's private soldiers would go to the border to support them, and their news channels were even more sensitive and accurate than the county soldiers.

Having information channels is a very important thing in this world.

"Not so good. The Qing army is too brave. They are not afraid of death, and their individual combat power is strong. It is said that Zhou Guo's army suffered heavy casualties on the border. If we hadn't defended the batch of defense equipment and transported it, what would have happened? Even more pessimistic..."

"Do other counties have support?"

"No, this time not only our Changping County was attacked by the Qing army, but several counties along the border were also attacked. Our strategic position is not that high, and we will not be given priority if there is support."

"Understood." Li Shou nodded, "It seems that Changping County may not be able to hold on..."

"It's hard to say, in this world, apart from soldiers and generals, there are top experts who affect the battle situation. Sometimes a top expert can determine the outcome of a battle. By the way, speaking of experts, when will you go to the Magi's Pavilion? Are our classmates still following?"

"You can't follow. Although we won a big victory in the last battle at Qingwu Villa, we have also exposed part of our identity. Now there are Qingguo secret agents staring at me, and people from Fangyi Heiwu. If we leave in large numbers Xuangui City, crossing seven or eight counties to the capital, will definitely encounter danger on the way.

Our staffing is determined by itself. We will be very powerful in ambushing others, but we will definitely die a large number of people if they sneak attack.Also, there are a lot of people in our first and third classes who are not physically strengthened. If I travel through the counties by myself, it will be much faster than bringing a large army together.

So now it's best for everyone to stay in Xuangui City. Everyone has been operating here for a while, and they have a plan to deal with danger.I will take the time to go to the capital by myself, and go back quickly. "

"Well, it's about the same as I thought."

"You have this as well." Li Shou gave Juehuang all the things he got from the fortune-teller while speaking, "This is the trophy of Fang Yi's high-level executives. This person has more kill points than the mantis man Gao. He left a lot of props behind, and these props are all task rewards exchanged by Fang Yi, and I don’t know if they can be brought back. This thing is very complicated. You can study it well and use your brain to study it. Can’t do it. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go first.”

"it is good."

After leaving Cao Mansion, Li Shou returned to the villa to contact Xiao Ruyi.

At this time, he has changed back to the appearance of the young lady of Qingwu Villa.

When we met again, his eyes were much haggard.

"Oh, my classmates are dying." Xiao Ruyi didn't joke with Li Shou this time, but sat on the steps of the villa, looking up at the green bamboo next to her.

Seeing him like this, Li Shou suddenly thought of his middle-aged version of himself.

When everyone around is dead, there must be some loneliness.

After all, even if the relationship was not very good at the beginning, but they have gone through so many tasks together through life and death, and they have long been fettered in it.

Li Shou thought about himself.

Not to mention the death of people like King Juehuang who were friends from the beginning.

Even if Ma Nanzheng, whom he didn't want to see at the beginning, or Chen Zihan, who was even an enemy at the beginning, died, he would still feel uncomfortable.

"My condolences." Li Shou stepped forward and patted Xiao Ruyi on the shoulder, "You have already done a lot, without your efforts, maybe at the beginning of the third round, everyone in your camp would be killed by that No. 6 Kill. And No. 6 is dead now, so it can be regarded as revenge for everyone."

"Well, thanks buddy."

"It's okay, I have to kill him if I don't want to avenge you."

"I'm not talking about that, I'm saying, you didn't even hit the ground. You got a lot of points at that time..."

"..." Li Shou looked at Xiao Ruyi, and suddenly thought that this person, like Ma Nanzheng, was a very "flexible" person who would use any means to complete the task.

"If you killed someone at that time, I will retaliate. Although I am not capable of fighting, I can still reveal part of your hiding place. Also, Zhuang Fei will listen to me, and you will have another powerful enemy."

Zhuang Fei.

One of the strongest natives that Li Shoulai encountered in this world.

After listening to the words of the Variety Mouse, Li Shou only felt that sometimes being a human being really can't be too extreme.

"We also thought about killing your people, but it's too immoral, we can't do it, and the benefits are not that great, so don't thank me. Now that so many people have died on your side, how do you plan to complete the task afterwards? "

"Try it with the natives, or I thought about it, and continue to provide you with information. Because I provided the information, I will also benefit from your completion of the task. This is also a win-win cooperation, can it?"

"Yes. I know that you have a special source of information, which can be of great help... But before that, I want to use the power of Xiashanzhuang. If something happens to Xuangui City, help me protect my classmates. I have to leave for a few days. "

"Okay. If something goes wrong, I'll ask Zhuang Fei to help."

……

After meeting with Xiao Ru, Li Shou left the villa.

He took the map he found in Xuangui City, and headed all the way in the direction of "Bian Ling", the capital of Zhou Kingdom.

According to the map, it takes 7 counties to get to the middle of the capital. Li Shou estimates that it is almost 1100 kilometers according to the scale.

"I don't know how long it will take to run there. My speed is about the same as that of a running horse. In ancient times, 400 miles of express delivery was [-] miles a day, which means that a galloping horse can run [-] kilometers a day at full speed. But at that time, [-] miles of express delivery was a After a short distance, you have to change horses at the post station, otherwise the horses will not be able to keep running at high speed for a long time... Normal horses can travel one to two hundred kilometers a day. My endurance is stronger, and it is no problem to run three to four hundred kilometers. It can be done in about three days. to the capital."

"Forget it, no matter what, we can't waste time, go back early!" Li Shou walked into the forest while speaking.

Not far away, a figure also flashed out.

"Boy, you dare to lie to me, and finally let me get the chance to place an order..."
