Chapter 625 - 625: Escape plan (1)
In the tent, Yang Yan sat cross-legged on the soft cushion and took the tea handed over by the Minister of Justice, “”The one that attacked the official ship was a black flood Dragon. It should be from the flood Dragon Tribe of the monster race in the North. It’s not bad, rank-4. I can’t beat it in the water.”
He wasn’t a talkative person, so he gave a concise and comprehensive statement, compared his strength with the other party, and then fell silent.
Min Xianglong’s expression changed.
Hearing the existence of a fourth -grade flood Dragon, the judge of the court of judicial review and the others had strange expressions. Some were stunned, some were afraid, and some were anxious.
“General Ying, do you know anything about that flood Dragon?” Constable Chen asked, frowning.
As he spoke, he squinted his eyes to examine Chu Xianglong.
Everyone looked over and the invisible pressure made Chu Xianglong unable to remain silent. After hesitating, he said in a deep voice, ‘
“Black flood Dragon, fourth grade. If I’m not wrong, it should be Tang Shan
Jun. ”
He really knew the black flood Dragon … Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes flickered. The enemy who had set up an ambush at the quicksand beach was the northern Demon tribe. Since the northern Demon tribe had moved out, what about the northern barbarian tribe, who had always been on the same side?
In addition, the princess Consort’s journey to the North was kept a secret, and the official ship traveled North at an extremely fast speed. Logically speaking, it was impossible for the demons in the North to set up an ambush in advance.
Unless they knew that the princess was heading north.
[ our Da Feng’s number one beauty is really not simple. She’s worth the barbarian’s attention to set up an ambush in the enemy’s hinterlands … ] Chu Xianglong’s expression seemed to be extremely shocked. It was obvious that he was also shocked by the northern demon race’s attack … Xu Qi ‘an’s mind was filled with countless thoughts.
“Yang Jinluo, are there any other enemies besides the black Jiao Dragon?” Constable Chen asked in a low voice.
“I didn’t find anything.” Yang Yan shook his head.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. The Deputy of the Supreme Court felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and his heart settled down.”lf there’s only one rank-4, we don’t have to worry too much
After that, Xu Qi ‘an laughed and said, ‘”‘The northern barbarian race and the northern demon race are of the same breath and branch. Since the demon race has made a move, the Barbarian race will not be far away.
“If I’m not wrong, there are experts lying in ambush at all the major passes leading to the Northern Territory. Believe me, unless we abandon the carriages and supplies and cross the mountains, we will be ambushed again sooner or later. ”
These days, there were only a few official roads. There were countless small roads, but the small roads created by those people made it difficult to even ride a horse, not to mention carriages and flagpoles used to transport supplies.
In ancient times, path-cutting thieves only needed to occupy one official road and Rob the caravans and pedestrians along the way to make a lot of money.
The two censors and the Supreme Court’s Deputy quickly looked at Constable Chen. They didn’t believe Chu Xianglong anymore.
Although Constable Chen’s position was low, he was an experienced martial artist. He was also one of them, and his statement was the most trustworthy.
Constable Chen nodded and said in a low voice, “”Lord Xu’s analysis is very reasonable, even the truth. “I even think that since there’s a rank-4 on the water route, what about the other ambush points? Would there be a rank-4 as well, or perhaps even more rank-4s?
if the northern barbarians and the demons work together, it won’t be a problem to send out a certain number of fourth-grade cultivators.
A level four expert was a well-known Big Shot in the pugilistic world. He was a local Overlord. However, in the Imperial court, there were not as many rank-4s as there were hairs on an ox, but there was definitely no shortage of them.
This was a very simple principle. If there were more rank four in the martial world than the Imperial court, then the Imperial court would not be the one ruling the world.
The northern barbarian race and the demon race were like the northern United imperial court.
“This, what should we do?”
The three officials were getting anxious.
As long as the enemy had two rank-4s, their team would be in danger. If there were three, the entire team would be wiped out.
The atmosphere in the tent became silent and serious.
The three civil officials and Constable Chen frowned. Even though there were 100 Imperial Guards outside and their own guards, they could not give them any sense of security.
In truth, the diplomatic mission already had a sufficient number of guards. There were a hundred Imperial Army soldiers, several dozen guards, four silver gongs, eight copper gongs, and a fourth-grade golden gong.
As long as a team like this wasn’t targeted by any major power, they could do whatever they wanted in all parts of Da Feng. They could even escape unscathed from the North and northeast.
When provincial governor Zhang led the Army to Yunzhou, it was also on a similar scale, and the journey was safe and sound.
However, the current situation was that they were most likely ambushed and targeted by the Joint Forces of the demons and barbarians in the North, and they were backed by a powerful force that dominated the North.
“Why did the Barbarian race and the demon race in the North want to kill the queen? And how did they set up the ambush in advance?” Constable Chen stared at Chu Xianglong with a sharp gaze.
“This is not something you should know.” Chu Xianglong sneered.
“If you knew that the enemies were the demons and barbarians in the North, why didn’t you send the Imperial Guards to escort them? why did you hide in the diplomatic mission?” Constable Chen said angrily.
The terrible situation made him extremely angry. He no longer cared about Chu Xianglong’s identity, and his attitude was hostile.
That’s right, if they were mentally prepared for an ambush, wouldn’t it be safer to send the Imperial Army directly … After all. this was the territory of Da Feng. If they sent a large group of Imperial Guards to escort the princess, even if the Barbarian and demon tribes in the North sent out fourth level experts, they would only end up with. bitter end. After all. the Imperial Guards would definitely carry large killing magical weapons, and there were many experts in the Army …
However. Emperor Yuan jing had the princess secretly sneaked into the diplomatic mission and left the capital without anyone knowing … This shocking thought flashed through Xu Qian’s mind.
They were guarding against the internal enemies of the Imperial court!
Someone in the Imperial court did not want the princess Consort to go to the North to see King Huai … What would happen if the princess went to the North? There was indeed a deeper inside story behind this..
