Chapter 1443: Chapter 348: Good!_2

Lord Zheng’s current skill level naturally doesn’t allow him to sense the presence of so-and-so around him in advance. Moreover, with an existence like Prince Jingnan, unless the Sword Saint is present, it’s difficult for others to perceive in advance.

This is also why, several times while Lord Zheng was talking, Prince Jingnan suddenly appeared.

His identity can make his outer guards silent;

His skill can avoid being sensed by most people;

However,

Even Lord Zheng, with his dullness, would not confuse the sound of boots hitting the ground.

This is just like how Ji Chengjue can still develop his "underground forces" under the eyes of the Yan Emperor. It’s not that the Yan Emperor truly can’t see, but their gaze is too high, often ignoring or not caring to see these little details.

"It’s time to prepare."

Lord Zheng spoke.

A Ming responded, "So quick."

"The Chu people are beginning to shrink back."

Lord Zheng glanced back at the entrance of the military tent, Tian Wujing had already walked out from inside and entered his own King’s Tent.

In fact, Lord Zheng had asked the Sword Saint about beings of their level and their awareness of surrounding matters.

The Sword Saint’s reply was, who would idly waste time scanning their senses all the time, wouldn’t it be tiring?

The blind man standing at the side then slightly furrowed his brows.

So, unless Tian Wujing intended to deliberately "listen" to what Lord Zheng was saying, he wouldn’t hear it.

Moreover, given Tian Wujing’s personality, he would be too lazy to listen to these whispers, only, Lord Zheng had already turned caution into an instinct.

"Help me convey some orders."

"My lord, please speak."

"First, instruct Jin Shuke and the blind man to bring back the new recruits selected from the rear, Jin Shuke will join the ranks, the blind man will take those people to the Snow Sea Pass, first have the blind man conduct some ideological and political education reforms;

Second, have Siniang prepare for the transition of affairs at the Snow Sea Pass, which will be taken over by the blind man. He’s capable, so let him bear the burden alone. Siniang should come over and join us in entering Chu.

Third, inform Gong Wang and Gongsun Zhi to each select four thousand from their direct subordinates, and lead the troops personally.

Fourth, inform A Cheng that my unit will deploy seven thousand men, take the first battalion of the wild people king with me."

Throwing the towel into the washbasin,

Lord Zheng exhaled a long breath,

and said:

"The final point, tell the Sword Saint that his vacation is over."

"Okay, my lord."

Lord Zheng shook his hand and returned to his military tent.

The Royal Seal and the Tiger Talisman were still placed there, Old Tian hadn’t taken them.

Lord Zheng sat down,

and began writing a memorandum,

instructing each path’s commander to select two hundred elite armored soldiers led by a captain to enter the central army and guard the main tent.

After finishing writing, he used the seal.

This memorandum will be sent down later.

The reason for not directly letting them send the selected elites to the East Mountain Fort is worry that the movements would be too obvious.

Adding just one more step can provide one more layer of cover, a very cost-effective trade.

Some military movements are hard to escape the observation of the attentive ones. Lord Zheng believed that the Chu people’s Phoenix Nest guards might also detect, but if it can be delayed even a little, it will be.

The most important thing is,

Old Tian’s plan needs to borrow the "force of nature." When Lord Zheng first heard of such arrangements, he was utterly shocked. Even if the Chu Phoenix Nest internal guards were able to peel back layers and infiltrate everywhere, trying to perceive this Yan Army’s military plan in a short time would be nearly impossible.

Taking a step back, even if they truly detected it, with this era’s messaging speed, by the time the great general receives this intelligence, our side would have "light boats already passed through thousands of mountains," looking towards Jing City.

Somehow,

maybe it was really because of being forcibly pulled up by Tian Wujing onto the carriage time and again,

I have gotten used to it.

Making Lord Zheng now, surprisingly, feel no sense of crisis at all.

Clearly, this is a highly dangerous warfare maneuver deep behind enemy lines,

but now feels just like an ordinary military march.

Though there was once a surprise attack on the Snow Sea Pass, honestly, the Chu people are not something the wild people can compare to.

Alas,

Lord Zheng stretched lazily, with a reckless demeanor,

a sudden burst of chuunibyou mood,

humming:

"Invincible, how lonely it is..."

...

Snow Sea Pass,

Earl’s Mansion.

Tiantian sat in the courtyard every day,

near him, a fox, and a black cat.

This child,

from childhood to adulthood,

slept on a zombie’s head,

played with a resentful infant of nine lives,

most importantly, it was Mo Wan. Every time Lord Zheng needed to go out, he had to follow, so, most of the time, Tiantian played alone.

He neither made noise nor fussed,

sitting alone there, could enjoy playing happily the whole afternoon.

When it’s time to eat, he eats, when it’s time to sleep, he obediently crawls onto the bed and covers himself to sleep.

Siniang comes to visit once a day, which makes him very happy.

Now,

Tiantian is playing with two demons.

Whether it’s the fox or the black cat, both knew this young master’s noble status, so they also made every effort to accompany him in his play.

Fortunately, the young master didn’t have any special preferences, and also had quite a good temper, taking them out strolling by day, sharing his snacks with them by night.

The outside world, even to demons, is too dangerous.

Therefore, these two demons quite enjoy the serene life now.

Most importantly, they astonishingly discovered, ever since accompanying this little master, when cultivating and absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, the effects have significantly improved compared to before.
