As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

She complained that it was strange that she couldn't guess what this guy was thinking.

"Am I weird?"

Xinhai tilted his head slightly and asked with a smile.

"I can't figure you out at all, it's so baffling."

she answered.

"So...want to get to know me?"

Xinhai just smiled quietly, looking at her beauty so close at hand, and asked softly with a delicate voice.

"...I'm a little interested."

The general narrowed his eyes and answered her.

"LOL Yes--"

pat~

Xinhai stood up again lightly and walked to the opposite side of her, then stretched out his palm to her and looked at her with a peaceful smile.

"My name is Coral Palace Xinhai, General, please give me your advice."

He said to her solemnly with a voice as clear as a spring.

"... Raiden Mio, a friend of a certain strategist, please give me some advice."

She shook her head slightly and then stretched out her hand to hold the offered palm and was pulled up by the other party.

"Haha, of course, Mio~"

After hearing this, Xinhai laughed at her again... The general also slightly curved his lips when he saw her look.

Coral Palace Xinhai is really... a strange girl, but in the current situation of Haiji Island, she is as special as a green lotus emerging from the mud but unstained.

But...it's okay to hate it.

Chapter of the Sleeping Dragon ~ The dream of war is gone, the grass is like spring: Chapter 11 Even if you lose at the starting line, you will not sit still and wait for death!

In order to prove the innocence of the businessman, Xinhai planned to personally find the stolen goods. Hearing the other party say that the fools had taken them away, looking at the other party's eager look, it didn't seem like he was lying.

At this moment, the general was helplessly following the girl to accompany her to find the so-called goods. She didn't need to intervene in the matter that originally belonged to the other party, but... she couldn't let go. After all, the lady next to her from Coral Palace was... With her small body, she looks like a weak type, and the other party also said that she was ill and would cough a few times. Even if she is still wearing her shawl, this frail appearance can really deal with those fools by herself. Soldier?

[In that case, how about you go with me? 】

What's more, this guy seemed to know that he was not in good shape, so he specially invited her, as if he had paid attention to it from the beginning, and used this as an excuse to let her accompany him. It has to be said that just by virtue of In this aspect of careful thinking, the Coral Palace lady and Linghua will definitely get along.

Sure enough, when she agreed, the other party's peaceful face immediately revealed a look of even greater joy.

She and Xinhai beside her headed towards the coast of Haiji Island in the distance. According to Xinhai, this area was the point where the goods were lost provided by the businessman, and it was the coastline near the cliff. It was getting late now, and it was originally blue. The waves gradually turned into a deep dark color. Even so, the surroundings were still extremely peaceful. This may be the characteristic of Haiji Island.

"Why do you need to come in person?"

Looking at the girl walking silently on the side, she asked coldly.

"The credibility is high only if I prove it. If it were a soldier, he might add fuel to the fire because of his own opinions. In this case, wouldn't the businessman be wronged?"

Xinhai answered her while taking steps.

"About peace talks..."

"Ok?"

Xinhai looked at her.

"How many people...object?"

she continued to ask.

"...About [-]%, most people are in favor. After all, war has brought them endless disasters, and peace is everything."

Xinhai replied.

"Huh...is this the so-called leader of faith and the flaw of leading troops with intelligence?"

She looked at the pink-haired girl next to her with a teasing smile.

"...Haha, you see things very clearly, General."

Xinhai was stunned for a moment and then helplessly shook his head and praised her.

"You are different from me. You purely rely on the power of faith as the 'Miko of the Living God' to stabilize the people. However, it is difficult to unify the morale of the military with this method."

She no longer had an indifferent tone now, but chatted with the other person like a friend.

"Well, actually when I first organized the resistance, I thought that such a day would come."

Xinhai followed her and matched her pace, hugging her chest and chatting with her affectionately.

"...You have thought of it a long time ago?"

She looked at the other party in surprise.

"Yes, but... there is no way. I am not as powerful as you. I... Huh... I just have a pretty good brain in the eyes of others, but sometimes the so-called art of war cannot solve any problem. I know this better than anyone.”

Xinhai whispered softly and looked down at his legs walking side by side with the people around him.

"..."

He listened silently to the clear spring-like voices of the people around him, with a hint of complexity flashing through his eyes.

"Your soldiers are very impetuous now."

She expressed her thoughts again.

"...I know that there are many people in the military who are opposed to this peace negotiation, including the previous incident on Ba Ying Island. I can guess what they are thinking."

Xinhai nodded.

"Why didn't you tell them?"

she asked puzzled.

"For them who are impetuous now, if I point it out, it will be counterproductive and make them even more impetuous."

"Then you just leave it alone?"

she asked.

"No, I'm waiting for the opportunity. Maybe it will come soon. Sometimes the moment of explosion is the best opportunity, General."

Xinhai tightened the shawl she had put on her shoulders slightly and gave her a nice smile.

"...You are really strange."

She complained again that sometimes this guy's way of thinking is weirder than Ayaka. Sure enough, women with this kind of personality have something in common, right?

"Haha... You are surrounded by people with different personalities and excellent qualifications. I, who was already losing at the starting line... how can I get you to notice if I am no longer weird?"

Xinhai just smiled casually, turned around and said some warm words to her teasingly. The fair and beautiful face, accompanied by the delicate figure like a mermaid, floated in front of her in a somewhat agile way at this moment. Let a touch of the fragrance of the ocean penetrate into her nostrils.

"Slick tongue~"

After the general heard the opponent's direct kick, he paused slightly, then awkwardly smoothed his hair and followed again.

"Isn't this glib? You may think I'm shameless, but...this is what I mean. If my relationship with you becomes more harmonious and intimate, it will also promote the efficiency of our peace talks. At least that's what I think."

"Then what is the 'starting line'?"

"Well - haha... it's a secret~?"

Xinhai gave her a 'shush' gesture and winked sweetly at her.

"...Phew, that's all."

She gave up asking, always feeling like it was something like a small abacus.

Xinhai followed the mountain road to the top of the cliff, and she followed. The two finally arrived at their destination. Under the cliff at their feet was the camp of those fools. There were many people, and they were basically cadre-level characters. What? There are wind fists, thunder hammers, muskets, and several small soldiers. It can be said that there are all kinds of tricks. In one sentence, it is "tightly arranged."

Xinhai just used the cover of the grass to briefly observe the terrain of the beach below. When the other party didn't notice her, she quietly retracted her head.

"How about it?"

"The camp the merchant mentioned should be down here. Judging from the layout, this was once a Qiuqiu people's camp, and it was occupied by the Fools for some reason."

Xinhai crossed his arms out of habit, and his gradually colored eyes also showed a thoughtful look.

"...What about the scale?"

she asked.

"It's very strict."

The other party answered decisively.

"so what?"

She tilted her head slightly to bring up the topic.

"Although it is heavily guarded, it is easy to break through it. We are currently in a favorable terrain. The enemy is in the light and we are in the dark. It is a good time to formally use the strategy~"

Xinhai said proudly to her.

"Hmm~ What do you think, Master Military Advisor?"

Looking at the group of fools below, she narrowed her eyes in boredom and asked in line with the other person's position.

"In my opinion, there are only two strategies."

The girl raised her index finger wrapped in a white silk glove and began to explain.

"The first type is to capture the thief and capture the king. The power of the fools in Daozhu is temporarily gone, and what is left is nothing more than a defeated army."

Xinhai looked at the captain of the Fools who was resting in the camp.

"If you can fly down from a high place and defeat the leader among them first, then the miscellaneous soldiers will defeat themselves without a fight."

After saying this, Xinhai glanced at her specifically, as if to see her reaction.

"uh-huh…"

The general narrowed his bored eyes and nodded perfunctorily.

"Then the second option is to take advantage of the situation. Look, there is a large pile of powder keg over there."

Xinhai took the initiative to hold her hanging palm and pulled her to his side. He stretched out his hand to indicate the area where gunpowder barrels were stored in the camp in the distance.
