After some thought, Jiang Tinglong felt that he should have a heart-to-heart discussion with Wu Xian about the pros and cons of giving up on firing the signal arrows at Mount Shaohua. He shamelessly asked,"Brother Wu Xian, why can't we give up on our plan to shoot the signal arrows at Mount Shaohua? But I want to hear the reasons and pros and cons of your decision!”
Seeing that Jiang Tianlong's attitude had become sincere, Wu Xian dispelled his previous thoughts and said with conviction,"Since Lord Jiang is asking the soldiers about the pros and cons of giving up shooting the signal arrow, then this subordinate will nag without hiding it!”
Wu Xian cleared his throat and raised his voice."The first drawback of shooting arrows is that the target is too big. If the target is too big, it means that there is no target. Mount Shaohua is such a big territory, so which direction should the arrow be shot in?”
" This…this…" Jiang Tianlong stammered, speechless.
"There's something more important!" "Sir Jiang, are you sure that Chen Da is the court's spy on Mount Shaohua?" Wu Xian said without hiding anything.”
"Of course not!" " As for whether the spy is Chen Da or not," Jiang Tianlong said firmly," We'll have to wait for Grand Advisor's response before making a decision. However, the spy that we read from the hidden poem is indeed Chen Da!"”
"If there is no silver here, it is also a way of saying that Ah Er next door did not steal!”"Since Lord Jiang can't be sure that Chen Da is a spy?" Wu Xianxin said happily. In that case, firing the signal arrows at Mount Shaohua was a blind and risky move!”
Jiang Tianlong stared at Wu Xian without saying a word.
Wu Xian followed up with another attack." Lord Jiang read the four lines of the hidden poem on the folding fan and realized that Chen Da was a spy. He's more or less making groundless accusations!”
Jiang Tianlong was stunned. He stared at Wu Xian and said,"Only my uncle and Lord Yu Houtian were present when I read the poem. How did little brother Wu Xian know?”
"There's no such thing as an airtight wall in the world!" "There were only the three of you at the scene of the recitation, but didn't Lord Jiang ask the governor, Zhang Yang, to rush to Tokyo to verify it with Grand Advisor?" Wu Xian said passionately. There was also another segment where the six of us rushed over to Mount Shaohua. Weren't we discussing the hidden poem? Why did Lord Jiang activate the ostrich effect?”
Wu Xian no longer saw himself as a bodyguard, guard, or low-level soldier, but a general who was skilled in both literature and martial arts.
After Wu Xian finished speaking, he said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner,"Lord Jiang came to Mount Shaohua to shoot the arrow because he wanted to take a risk without confirming that Chen Da was a spy. In other words, he was feeling the stones and crossing the river!”
Jiang Tianlong didn't say anything, while Zhao Zhen chattered on,""If the arrow is shot out and Chen Da picks it up, it can only be said to be a fluke. The problem is that there is a 99.9% chance that it will not fall into Chen Da's hands. If the village servant picks it up, it will definitely be sent to the big leader Shi Bin and the second leader Zhu Wu!”
He stretched his neck and swallowed a mouthful of saliva."Shi Bin has nine dragons tattooed on his body. Zhu Wu was originally an official of the imperial court, nicknamed the Divine Military Advisor. If he saw the four lines of the argot poem, he would definitely be able to read the words 'Grand Tutor Cai's edict. In that case, there would be a big purge in the village. Even the real spies would not act rashly. Did Lord Jiang scheme too cleverly and harm Qing Qing's life?”
After Wu Xian finished speaking, he raised his voice and said,"The two fatal flaws above can only be said to be harmless. The third flaw is the most important, and that is that we can't get close to Shi Bin's main camp at Mount Shaohua!”
"Does Lord Jiang know where Shi Bin's main camp is located on Mount Shaohua?" Wu Xian asked.”
Jiang Tianlong couldn't answer, but he was afraid of losing face. He didn't say anything, but he muttered in his heart,"Yeah, where is Shi Bin's main camp on Mount Shaohua? Mount Shaohua was a few hundred square kilometers in size, so how could it be the base of the bandits?”
Seeing Jiang Tianlong's silence, Wu Xian further explained his reason,""We are only standing on the shallow mountain of Mount Shaohua. To enter Shi Bin's camp, we have to pass through Liao 'er Lake!”
Jiang Tianlong, Tian Qilai, Zhang Han, Wang Guang, and Li Si had never entered the depths of Mount Shaohua, so they didn't know that there was a Liao 'er Lake.
When Wu Xian said this, the five of them couldn't help but look at each other. Jiang Tianlong even lost his composure and said,"So I was a little too sure. I thought that I could summon the spy the moment I entered Mount Shaohua, but it turns out that we were only standing on a shallow mountain! And Liao Erze?"
Wu Xian chuckled." Lord Jiang, if you want the spy to get the argot poem on the arrow, you have to go through Liao 'er Lake and enter the deep mountains. Then, you have to go through eight dangers and ten turns to enter Shi Bin's main camp. Only then can you achieve your goal!"”
Wu Xian said with conviction," You have to take a ferry to pass through Liao 'er Lake. Those without Mount Shaohua's waist token will be killed in Yuaya City as secret agents of the imperial court. Only after crossing Liao' er Lake can you enter Mount Shaohua!"”
Tian Qi sighed and said," It looks like I've been distracted. I only talk about Mount Shaohua, but I don't know its true colors. After Brother Wu Xian said this, you know how ignorant I am!”
Wu Xian continued," Shi Bin's main camp is located in the Misty Valley of the Longqian Temple on Mount Shaohua. It is adjacent to Baiya Valley in the east, Xiaofu Valley in the west, and Coiling Dragon Ridge in the south. It is 1300 meters above sea level.”
He paused for a moment and said," Other than the main stronghold of the Hidden Dragon Temple, the Loyalty Army also has the middle stronghold of Shaohua Peak, the middle stronghold of Red Cliff Lake, the small stronghold of Shimen Gorge, and the small stronghold of Junlin Valley. Even if Lord Jiang wants to contact Chen Da, you know which camp he's working in!”
Wu Xian explained without any discount, completely dispelling Jiang Tianlong's hasty actions.
Jiang Tianlong said passionately," Brother Wu Xian is indeed as talented as Zhou Lang and as intelligent as Zhuge Liang. I hereby announce that I will give up on shooting the signal arrow and immediately rush to Baihe County!”
Jiang Tianlong and the others left Mount Shaohua and went to Baihe County, where they bumped into Governor Zhou Luwang.
Zhou Luwang was sent by Jiang Tianlong to Huazhou and Baihe County to request reinforcements. He brought along soldiers from Magen Village, Zhang Lashan, and Wen Ding.
Zhou Luwang and the others saw Jiang Tianlong, Tian Qilai, Zhang Han, Wang Guang, Li Si, and Wu Xian rushing over and hurriedly reported the situation.
"Deputy Commander Jiang!" Zhou Luwang hurriedly bowed to Jiang Tianlong and said,""The four of us were ordered by you to go to Huazhou Prefecture and Baihe County to ask for reinforcements. We went to Huazhou Prefecture first, but Zhizhou Jin was not there. Wang Zhouxi saw Lord Jiang's name card and immediately led 800 cavalry to Baihe County to meet up with Zhizhou Lord Jin!”
Jin Zhizhou is in Baihe County?" Jiang Tianlong asked.
"Jin Zhizhou is in Baihe County, and Little Soldier knows that he lives here for half a year!”Zhou Luwang hurriedly said, clearing his throat,""The Jin Zhizhou, Wang Tongpan, and Wang Wencai are all at the county government. Lord Jiang will be able to see them soon!”
"It's better to come at the right time than to come early!" Jiang Tianlong chuckled.”
After Jiang Tianlong finished speaking, he glared at Zhou Luwang and the others and said in an unreasonable manner,""Why aren't the four of you accompanying Jin Zhizhou to the county office?”
Zhou Luwang rubbed his neck and chuckled.""To be honest, we want to find a few girls to relax!”
"Relax my ass!" Jiang Tianlong berated and pointed,"Zhou Luwang, listen up. Immediately take your men and spread out. Investigate the whereabouts of the bandits in Mount Shaohua in White River County. If you find anything, report to the county government immediately!”
Zhou Luwang, Ma Gencun, Zhang Lashan, and Wen Ding went their separate ways. Jiang Tianlong, Tian Qilai, and Wu Xian went to the Baihe County Office.
Zhizhou Jin Xin Shu, pass sentence Wang Zhouxi, magistrate Wang Wencai really gathered in the county government.
Jiang Tianlong reported what had happened in Qingyang Village. Jin Xinshu laughed and said,"Zhou Luwang, who was sent by Young Master Jiang, has informed us of the situation. Didn't Wang Tong personally lead 800 cavalrymen from Huazhou Prefecture?”
Jin Xinshu stood up and said confidently,"800 provincial soldiers, 200 county soldiers, a total of more than 1,000 people, all under Young Master Jiang's command!”
Jin Xinshu called Jiang Tianlong Young Master Jiang as soon as he opened his mouth. Jiang Tianlong sounded very comfortable.
Jin Xinshu knew that Jiang Tianlong was Grand Preceptor Cai's nephew and did not dare to offend him. Wang Wencai, the magistrate of Baihe County, and Wang Zhouxi, the general judge of Huazhou, did not dare to offend Jiang Tianlong when they saw his name letter.
Jiang Tianlong saw that Jin Xinshu was speaking so happily, so he cupped his hands to express his gratitude and said,"A few of us went to Mount Shaohua just now to investigate. Shi Bin's defenses are extremely tight, and it's difficult for even a fly to fly in. That's why we rushed to Baihe County to think of another way!”
Jiang Tianlong said that he planned to shoot arrows at Mount Shaohua as a detective, and that he would find another way to meet Chen Da in Baihe County.
Jiang Tianlong was a brave and resourceful person. For the time being, he did not want to tell Zhizhou Jin Xinshu, Tongpan Wang Zhouxi, and magistrate Wang Wencai about Chen Da's undercover operation.
Instead, after thanking the three of them, he told the state and county government soldiers to wait at the county government office, saying that there was going to be a fierce battle in Baihe County.
Jin Xinshu and the other two didn't understand the meaning behind Jiang Tianlong's words, but Jiang Tianlong was confident and chattered on.
This was because he and Wu Xian had analyzed the situation on their way to Baihe County. They felt that the bandits from Mount Shaohua would have to pass through White River County if they wanted to rescue Tian Gong, Liang Jian, and Cui Rang at Qingyang Village's Longxiao Villa. Jiang Tianlong wanted to ambush them here.
Jiang Tianlong and the others were discussing the matter of the Liangshan bandits passing through Baihe County when they suddenly heard a report from the sentry saying that a group of soldiers was heading towards the county town.
"These are soldiers disguised by the Liangshan bandits. Let's go over and take a look…" Jiang Tianlong responded quickly.
