Chapter 722 The Uninvited Guest of the Baiyue Department

Nanshui Nest Township is a fairy town in the southernmost part of the Northern Jin Kingdom. It basically belongs to the terrain of lakes and swamps, with many water forks, and fogs over the years.

Nanshui Narcissus Township is built by the water and is considered a port town. The large area of ​​lakes and marsh south of it is called Neimanze. This has a contemptuous meaning, meaning that this lakes and marsh area is very close to the three barbarian tribes in the south.

On this day, a mysterious caravan came from the north, entered the fairyland, arrived at the Nanshuidong Port, and prepared to rent a large ship to leave the port. The caravan had about fifty people, protecting two large cars. Most of the convoys were guarding immortals, and there were even strong people of the Immortal level.

Such an uninvited guest came, which made the Xianxiang Township leader Zhang Xiaofeng feel pressured. After the Xianxiang guards reported the matter, he hurried to greet him with people. However, before he could see the leader of the caravan who had been sitting in the cart, he was stopped by his guards.

"Who are you? Don't you know that this is our Lord Zhang? You dare to stop him!" The guards of the Lord's Mansion were extremely angry.

The leader of the chamber of commerce in the cart stretched out a hand and waved to Zhang Xiaofeng. Although the latter was suspicious, he still walked forward carefully. Then, a token lit up on his hand, "We went south to do what we meant by the above."

Zhang Xiaofeng suddenly realized that, but his duty was, he still asked quietly: "The three barbarians in the south have had troubles many times recently, and I don't know the king's envoy..."

"You shouldn't ask, don't ask." The leader of the chamber of commerce was obviously angry.

"Yes, yes, the subordinates obey the order." Zhang Xiaofeng responded, and finally did not dare to stop him. Instead, he used the power of the township master's residence to find a large ship and a handy boatman guide for the caravan, looking for a dock to hire workers to carry all the caravan's box cages and other things onto the boat.

Everything was done, and the big ship sailed southward and ten miles away from the Manze River, it had already left the border of the Northern Jin Dynasty.

At this time, the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, who had been hiding his face in the cloak in the cabin, finally took off the cloak, revealing a pale white young man's face. This person was the confidant staff officer of the Second Prince Shang Yu's mansion, Luqiu Zhiping.

This time, he led the team and left the border in the name of doing business, and was responsible for a secret mission.

Under the guidance of those who are familiar with the terrain, the ship changed its course several times and finally approached a piece of land. Then, more than ten small sampans surged out from the reeded bay bend beside the land, each of which was full of people, surrounding the big ship.

The people on these sampans are all bronze-skinned, with their upper bodies naked, and only a circle of grass skirts or animal skin skirts on their lower bodies. They are covered with various paints on their faces and bodies with many ferocious and ferocious patterns. Most of them hold a wooden spear in their hands, and a few carry bows and arrows.

"Master, sir, you've met the barbarians." A guard reported to Luqiu Zhiping in a panic.

"Call in Man's words and ask which tribe they belong to." Luqiu Zhiping said.

The Northern Jin Kingdom borders the three barbarians in the south, and some people in China learn Mandarin. Even if someone who knows Mandarin shouts loudly, some people from the Manfang side come out to respond.

Then a guard came to pay his respects: "Sir, they are from the Baiyue Barbarians. I have explained my purpose to them. They responded that they had received a letter before. Now let us follow their boats, dock, and go ashore to meet their patriarch. They said that if we do not follow, they will kill us in this water."

"Okay, order the helmsman to follow him, see where the dock is and the dock." Luqiu Zhiping was not panicked.

The big ship followed the small boat and continued to turn between the bays. Seeing this terrain, Luqiu Zhiping couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder the kingdom went south many times, but it was all hard and useless. How could the army be deployed just by this bay terrain? What's more, most of the soldiers in the kingdom have extremely poor water quality."

Leading a group of small sampans, the ship finally docked at a dock near the depths of the mangrove. Lu Houzhiping and his entourage carried two large boxes off the boat and followed the barbarians of the Baiyue tribe ashore.

There are many fishing boats in the nearby waters, and there are many fishing nets on the beach near the shore. There are jungles ahead of the beach, and there are hidden houses built in the forest. Baiyue barbarians of all sizes travel through them from time to time.

The barbarians led the way, walked through one piece of house after another, and finally came to the largest stone house in the deep forest, and said a few words.

"Sir, they said that this place is called Baiyue City. And this stone house is the residence of their Baiyue Barbarian patriarch, Lord Lu Dahui." said the translator.

"Their king lives in such a broken place? Such a broken house is used by the farmers of Northern Jin to raise pigs, and they all feel it is cold." Luqiu Zhiping said contemptuously.

A barbarian soldier had already entered to report. A moment later, a tall, stout barbarian man with a tall, stout, and said in a stiff mainland common term: "I am Lu Dahui, are you, the envoys of the Northern Jin Kingdom mentioned in the letter?"

"It's really great for the leader of the clan to understand mainland language." Luqiu Zhiping smiled, "I am the confidant of His Highness Shang Yu, the second prince of the Northern Jin Kingdom. My name is Luqiu Zhiping. I am the one who wrote to you."

"Since it's Mr. Luqiu, please come in, let's talk." Lu Dahui invited him into the stone house. His subordinates wanted to follow in, but they were stopped outside by the barbarians.

"King, my purpose is said in the secret letter." As soon as Luqiu Zhiping entered the house, he went straight to the point. He knew that these barbarians were most annoying to etiquette and politeness, and valued the most practical and profitable. "The Northern Jin Kingdom has formed two armies, the left and right armies, and the army is under the supervision of His Highness the Great Prince and His Highness the Second Prince. They are training and will go south soon to attack the Three Barbarians."

After hearing the news, Lu Dahui's face did not change any more and said disrespectfully: "In recent years, we have fought many wars with the Northern Jin Kingdom. The most tragic time was that Lou Fang's troops were captured by the princess general. In that battle, the Northern Jin lost 3,500 people, and we lost 2,000 people. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

"This time, I'm afraid it's different." Luqiu Zhiping narrowed his eyes, "This time, in addition to the princess and general, the left army also has a deputy commander, Jin Ling, the newly rising little killer of the Northern Jin Kingdom."

Seeing that Lu Dahui still didn't care, as if he had never heard of Jin Ling's name, he couldn't help but sigh, "In addition to this, the national strength of the Northern Jin Dynasty has been greatly enhanced compared to a few years ago. The commercial prosperity driven by Jinyuan has brought a lot of taxes to the kingdom, with a lot of national treasury, a sharp military armor, sufficient military resources, and strong supplies. This southern expedition is indeed incomparable to the last time."

After hearing these words, Lu Dahui was a little moved: "The Northern Jin Kingdom has been in war for many years and the national treasury is empty. A few years ago, weren't the Xueyin clan knocked a few times. Now, are you rich again?"

"Since the patriarch knows about the blood hidden thing, why don't he know about the Jinyuan thing?" Luqiu Zhiping was speechless. How did these barbarians have their heads grow? They only focus on superficial major events, not on the real internal factors that can promote the transformation of their strength.

"I won't talk anymore." He took out several copies of the prepared ones from his arms, "This is the left-wing army's strength and defense map, as well as the combat plan and roadmap. I can only help you get here. I think you should know what to do."

"Lou Fang, Shan Gui's Second Division, I have no intention of going there. Please tell me all of you."

As he said that, he stood up and left the stone house with disappointment.
