When the sun gradually rose, in a remote courtyard deep in Longcheng, Jiang Song, a seriously injured Qin secret spy, finally woke up from a coma. When he opened his eyes and saw clearly the figure sitting on the side, he confirmed that he was not dead yet.

"Young Master! I am incompetent... Thank you for your life-saving grace!"

He struggled to get up, his face full of pain. His physical injuries and frustration made the ace spy who had been lurking in Longcheng for more than ten years feel ashamed.

The young master of Qin State Nie Wushuang stood up and walked over, looking at him calmly. Although he didn't know what was going on, a strong sense of uneasiness had already arisen in his heart.

Since he reached an agreement with the Uncle Wang of Zhao and was arranged to recover from the wounded place, he has never gone out to do anything. On the one hand, it is to quickly take good care of his health, but on the other hand, it is to be afraid of alerting the snakes and letting the spies in Zhao find their whereabouts. As an old opponent of Qin's Goudi, Zhao's Qianji Pavilion also has very powerful strength. The battle between the two sides has been going on in the dark for so many years, and Nie Wushuang will never underestimate them.

All the external news came from Shan Gui's mouth. However, although General Shan Gui was unmatched in taming and driving birds and animals, he was a little slow to respond when exploring news and discovering abnormalities in time. Therefore, over the past few days, Nie Wushuang has only rely on limited intelligence analysis, and he has not fully understood the situation outside.

And such negligence or necessity finally made him make a mistake in judgment. Until now, he still thought that everything he planned was foolproof!

Jiang Song was rescued by a mountain ghost last night. This unlucky guy who escaped from death on the battlefield of Qixialing had two knife wounds on his body and a crossbow arrow was shot behind him. After escaping from the river to his life, he gritted his teeth and persevered and finally returned to Longcheng. As a secret spy who swore allegiance to the King of Qin, he had to report this major event to the young master Nie Wushuang to know. This is also the only thing he can do at the moment.

However, when he climbed into the city wall while the night was still not yet at Nie Wushuang's residence, he was discovered by the ubiquitous Qianji Pavilion spies. Jiang Song was seriously injured and was no match for the opponent, so he had to run away desperately in the night. Just when he was about to be caught, the mountain ghost appeared in time to save him and killed the two Qianji Pavilion spies who were chasing him. Jiang Song fell into a coma without saying a word, and when he woke up again, it was now.

"Tell me, what happened?"

Hearing Nie Wushuang's inquiry, Jiang Song tried hard to calm down his emotions. His face turned gray and his tone was full of humiliation and anger.

"Young Master! We have all been deceived. The warship army of the Southern Han Dynasty has been wiped out at Qixia Ridge and Chu River... They were ambushed by Zhao's army and were killed!"

Nie Wushuang was shocked. Although he had a bad premonition, he did not expect it to be so serious. Even though he was confident, he couldn't help but ask in a hurry.

"How could this be? The power of the Southern Han warships is the best among the princes, not to mention that there are more than 20,000 elite soldiers! How could the Zhao army stop them?"

"Young Master doesn't know that Chu Jiangmian has planned it! Even the defection of Young Master Liang Sheng was intentionally arranged! They used a plan to lead the Southern Han Navy to Qixia Ridge, then intercepted the river and fought to burn the warships... It's hateful that I always thought Chu Liangsheng was cowardly and incompetent, but I didn't expect that he was so treacherous. Young Master, what should we do now?"

When he heard this news, not only Nie Wushuang was shocked, but even the mountain ghost who walked in from outside opened his eyes widened in surprise, looking like he couldn't believe it.

"Are you saying true? Is it that the Southern Han army was destroyed with your own eyes?"

"General Shan Ghost, this matter is absolutely true! Chu Jiangmian personally commanded the Dragon Cavalry and set up this trap in Qixia Ridge. If I hadn't jumped into the river to escape in order to get back and report the news, I'm afraid that like the Southern Han navy, I'd have long been buried under the fire and the ruthless blade!"

Speaking of this, Jiang Song remembered the terrifying scene on the battlefield that he saw in his last eyes, and his face was extremely sad. Even now, he still felt scared. More than 20,000 elite navy soldiers were easily wiped out! Whoever regarded Chu Jiangmian as a playboy would be really blind!

"When did this happen...Is Chu Jiangmian still there?"

Nie Wushuang took a deep breath and calmed down his mind. From Zhongyue Mountain, he had known that Chu Jiangmian was a powerful figure. But he didn't expect that he would be such a big move when he took action! Thinking of what his master Shen Jizi once said, he couldn't help but sigh secretly. Chu Jiangmian was indeed the most powerful enemy in his life!

"Young Master, it has been a day and two nights since the Battle of Qixia Ridge, but now I don't know what the situation is..."

The sun was dazzling outside, but Nie Wushuang felt a little stuffy in his chest. He suddenly realized that it might be a mistake for him to enter Longcheng.

"General Shan Ghost, will you receive news from outside again in the past two days?"

"No. There should be news inside and outside Longcheng that all the spies from Qianji Pavilion in Zhao State were dispatched. I'm afraid that our people are almost dead."

Shangui shook his head with a heavy face. For the sake of Nie Wushuang's safety, he did not dare to stay away. Since they hid in this place, they have never been able to contact the Qin secret spies again. This is not a good sign.

"What will happen again in two days? If calculated based on the date, the Qin and Wei army that came from the Western Front should have already arrived in Longcheng! Is there no movement outside?"

Nie Wushuang murmured to himself, while the mountain ghost kept shaking his head. Although he could not leave the city, he could conclude that Longcheng would definitely not look like it was approaching by a large army.

"Young Master, don't worry too much. Although Chu Jiangmian used tricks to defeat the Southern Han Navy, did he have the ability to resist the siege of the other four armies at the same time? In fact, even if we don't use others, the Zhao army will definitely be difficult to compete with only our Qin army! If they really have that kind of strength, they will defeat the army and have no power to fight back?"

"Oh, things are not as simple as imagined! Since Chu Jiangmian no longer hides his means and launches his actions, he must have a complete combat plan. It's just a pity that we can't know... Well, by the way, what's going on with Uncle Wang and Chu Daxing?"

Nie Wushuang, who was frowning deeply, suddenly remembered his partner. Now, perhaps the only way to understand the details of the matter from this aspect. He believed that Chu Daxing and him were already grasshoppers tied to the same rope, and they would never dare to do anything casually.

While checking Jiang Song's wounds, the mountain ghost applied medicine again. He raised his head and replied, "There were a large number of people gathered in the mansion over there last night. They should be discussing something big. This morning, I saw them leaving the mansion in mourning clothes with their own eyes. They should have entered Jinxiang Palace, but I didn't know what would happen?"

A light suddenly appeared in Nie Wushuang's eyes, as if he had thought of something. He laughed smugly and said, "Haha! Do you still need to ask? These people from the Zhao royal family can no longer help it. Today, there will definitely be troubles in Jinxiang Palace! Maybe, we should seize this opportunity."

"Young Master, do you mean..."

Seeing the change in his tone, Jiang Song didn't care about the pain on his body. He stretched his neck and looked at Nie Wushuang with the mountain ghost, hoping that the young master of Qin could come up with an exciting solution. Nie Wushuang walked to the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the clouds above Long City, and returned to his calm expression.

"In the royal family of Zhao, many people do not like the strict queen, and they do not want Chu Jiangmian to ascend the throne! They have been planning for a long time and obviously chose to launch today. Haha! No matter who they have newly selected, there may be chaos in Longcheng. Just imagine, when Chu Jiangmian is happy for his victory on the battlefield ahead, he suddenly heard that he has been deprived of his inheritance, and then someone else ascended the throne... What will happen next?"

Even if Shan Gui and Jiang Song reacted slowly, they understood the implication of Nie Wushuang's words. What's more, they were originally people who were quick to see things. The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but show joy on their faces, sweeping away their previous decadence.

"The young master is really far-sighted and has a clear understanding! Even if Chu Jiangmian defeated the Southern Han Navy, he probably never expected that he would go out of the city to fight without hiding everyone, but in the end he would get such a result! Haha!"

"It's true! If Jinxiang Palace is in chaos today and someone takes the opportunity to ascend the throne, then there is no doubt that Chu Jiangmian, who is in the Dragon Cavalry Army, will definitely not be able to swallow this breath! With his unruly means to kill the enemy, will he be polite to deal with those who stab him in the back? Then the brothers will tragically bleed each other and the palace will bleed. Our army will destroy ourselves without attacking and destroying the enemy!"

Speaking of this, the three of them burst into laughter. To put it this way, it is not a bad thing for this Prince Zhao, who has shown his strength to establish prestige in the army through war. In this way, he has greater help and can fight with his brothers and elders with the same bloodline as him in a more tragic battle!

"Young Master, what should we do... Should we add a fire to make the hatred between them more intense?"
