Chapter 201 Calculation
At the same time, Xisha Camp.
The battle was difficult. There was a big mountain in the Paracel Islands separating the two countries, so it was not actually advantageous for them to attack Hongzhou.
In addition, Hongzhou was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and many people were lost in these battles.
The Xisha commander, Dalu, was in the tent at this moment.
When his subordinates reported the casualties, he slammed the table in anger after hearing them.
"Damn it, these Dajing people are so cruel."
"General, we were just caught off guard. Besides, the other side's main general has been replaced. I heard it's a woman. Why should we worry?"
Dalu snorted coldly: "What do you think that woman is here for? The previous commander of the Hongzhou Army was that woman's father!"
"But she's just a woman, what can she do?"
The Xisha people don't care about this at all. Although the status of Xisha women cannot be said to be underground, they have never seen a woman who can become a general.
Besides, judging from the current situation, the other party is just a young girl who is just starting out.
"Really? Then why are there so many casualties these times?"
Even when they fought with the old marquis before, not so many of them died.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence. That woman's fighting style seems to be constantly changing. She doesn't have any fixed moves at all. She's just an embroidered pillow."
Dalu doesn't care whether it is true or not, all he cares about is winning or losing.
He was not one of those arrogant guys. Although he was only giving orders from behind during several fights, he also felt that the enemy this time was unusual.
The opponent is exploring his own ideas for attack and is growing rapidly on the battlefield.
People like this... If they are not dealt with quickly, then it will become a question whether I can win.
"Go check what's going on with this woman. I want to know everything about her."
The general at the side had no choice but to nod and agree: "Yes, General, I will check it out right away."
However, they couldn't find anything.
Nangong Yuan's resume is incredibly clean and transparent.
She is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's mansion and the eldest daughter of the Nangong family. She has never left the house since she was a child and is not very famous in Kyoto.
Among the most elegant noble ladies in Kyoto, Nangong Yuan has never appeared.
All they could find out was that she had been engaged to Gu Zian but the engagement was later broken off, and that she was a skilled martial artist and was praised by His Majesty.
This information is too transparent and clear, yet too vague.
Anyone can check it, so that no one can check it.
This is the result of Nangong Yuan's caution.
Whether she went out to complete a mission or do anything else, she would take the Joy Pill provided by the system. After she was disguised, no one could recognize her.
In addition, her family's control over her was very loose, so it was difficult for even those close to her to know everything that Nangong Yuan had done, let alone others.
So... the other party found nothing.
"It seems that this woman is not simple. Her resume is so well hidden. Humph, I don't believe that a young girl can be so brave and resourceful. There must be something wrong."
It's so interesting to see how they clearly know there is a problem but have no idea where to start.
If Nangong Yuan knew that they were investigating in this way, she would just sneer.
"General, I don't think the other side is ready. Plus, their commander is dead. We should strike while the iron is hot."
When they fought, the two sides were indeed not much different in strength.
But the other side lost their main coach and of course they were defeated.
If Lin Yun and his men had not fought desperately at that time, Hongzhou might have really been captured by them.
However, they did not suffer no losses, otherwise they would not have refrained from large-scale attacks for such a long time.
"Let me see. I need to think about it carefully."
Dalu was not as reckless as imagined. He pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Soon, a voice was heard from outside.
"If the general doesn't act soon, it will only lead to complications."
Dalu raised his head and saw the man dressed in black and wearing a hood on his head, hiding his face completely.
"You came."
The other party nodded slightly and saluted, "General, now is a good time to attack."
"Oh? Tell me."
Dalu showed some interest and asked him to continue.
The man in black nodded, his voice calm and without any waves: "Nangong Yuan, I know a little bit about this person. Although Miss Guige has learned martial arts from her father, she has never been exposed to the battlefield or the art of war. Although she has some skills, she is not to be feared."
"Really? Then why do the Hongzhou Army listen to her so much?"
Dalu knew the soldiers well. If they didn't have real strength, they would never surrender, especially to a woman.
"Haha, the general may have forgotten that the Hongzhou Army was founded by the old marquis. The people under him are all loyal soldiers. They naturally support the old marquis' descendants. But how long can this situation last? As long as she loses the battle, she will die by then, right?"
Dalu narrowed his eyes after hearing this.
"What you said makes sense, but how do I know if it's true?"
After all, he didn't know Nangong Yuan and the others.
"I will help you with all my heart. If the general doesn't believe me, then I really have no other choice."
After hearing this, Dalu stood up and said, "How could it be? If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to kill Nangong Jingrong. Please sit down."
The man in black sat down and said, "General, you should make a decision soon. The Nangong family has a strong military power, and Nangong Yuan is supported by a group of veterans. If we don't deal with her as soon as possible, she will become the second Nangong Jingrong, and our efforts will be in vain."
This is why Nangong Yuan insisted on coming to Hongzhou.
As long as the Nangong family is not extinct, relying on the connections and military power left by her father, she will be in the same position as when her father was still alive.
As long as the military power is not shaken and the status remains, the family will not be seriously affected.
Of course, all of this is based on the fact that Nangong Yuan does have some skills, otherwise, such cards would be a dead end.
Fortunately... Nangong Yuan is not a good-for-nothing.
She knew exactly what she wanted to do, and she also knew that her father's influence was enough to make her subordinates support her.
There is no need to be completely devoted to her. Just having this intention is enough. Leave the rest to her.
"Oh, you think highly of her."
"No, I just have a little respect for military power."
After all, it is one of the four major military powers in the world. If we don’t take it, wouldn’t it be a waste of resources?
"What you said makes sense. I will consider this matter carefully."
"General, please consider this as soon as possible. Please let me know the result. I will help you then."
Seeing this, Dalu smiled and said, "Good brother, happy cooperation."
He didn't care what the other party was going to do, as long as he could help him.'
