On the second day, late at night in Red Dragon Altar City.

Right now, it was already the appointed time for Xiao Muqing to bring his trusted aides to the back of the mansion.

The temporary County Head Palace he was staying in was built relying on the Scarlet Dragon Mountain. There was a path between them that was less than two meters wide, it could be said that as long as he descended from the Scarlet Dragon Mountain, he would be able to enter his house at the first possible moment.

Peng Cheng stood in the courtyard in the backyard, and looked up. There wasn't the slightest hint of fire on the black cliff. After a while, he asked his left and right trusted aides anxiously, "What time is it now?"

"My Lord, half an hour has already passed since the end of the sea." A subordinate replied in a low voice.

"Why haven't we seen any signs of Feng Army yet?" Peng Cheng muttered, he turned and looked at Tan Liu, and asked: "Tan Liu, did you remember wrongly? "Is it definitely the Hai hour?"

"Master, it's definitely not wrong, it was Feng Army Commander Xiao Muqing who said it personally, at the Hai hour of tonight."

"What about them? It is already past the sea, why haven't we seen the shadow of the Feng Army yet? "

"This ?" Tan Liu could not explain why his Feng Army had not appeared as planned. He was so anxious that sweat covered his forehead as he randomly wiped it, and stammered: "Perhaps ? Maybe Feng Army changed his mind at the last minute ? "

"Why would Feng Army change their plans temporarily for such a big event?" A fire burned in Peng Cheng's heart as he scolded angrily: "Useless thing, none of the things I've told you can be done well."

Tan Liu was scolded to the point that he could not even raise his head, and carefully asked: "Then ? "Then, Lord, right now, we ?" Also... Do you still want to wait any longer? "

"What are you waiting for?" Peng Cheng said snappily: "It's been so long since the Hai Hai time, I can't even see the shadow of Feng Army anymore. I guess Feng Army won't come again tonight." With that, he swung his sleeves and returned to his bedroom, anger written all over his face.

Everyone looked at each other, shook their heads and said in a low voice, "Let's disperse, everyone!"

Not long after, Tan Liu was the only one left in the huge backyard.

Even now, his face was still filled with unwillingness. He raised his eyes to look up the mountain, and while looking, he tightly furrowed his brows. He muttered to himself, "That's right!" Yesterday, Xiao Muqing had promised to meet tonight at the Hai hour, why is it that no one has come! "

He could not figure out what had happened, and after standing in the yard for a long time, he sighed and walked away.

The situation on their side was seen clearly by the Sky Eye Scout who was lying in ambush. Sky Eye Scout was actually very close to them, hiding on a cliff that was ten meters tall. However, he was wearing a dark green robe, and even her face and hands had been painted a dark green. When he stuck to the cliff wall, she really did look like a part of it.

Watching as everyone in the courtyard left, it was as if the Sky Eye Scout, who had merged with the cliff, had slowly climbed towards the cave entrance at the side of the mountain.

The entrance of the cave wasn't big, and it was also surrounded by grass and vines. The entrance of the cave was well hidden, and it was precisely because of this that no one had noticed its existence.

Sky Eye Scout moved swiftly. She raised the fire piston, quickly passed through the cave, and arrived at the other exit. Then she slipped down the rope and borrowed it to quickly descend the mountain.

Reaching the bottom of the mountain, he once again took out the fire piston and burned the rope. After confirming that there were no traces left behind, he returned to the Feng Army Camp.

When Sky Eye Scout saw Xiao Muqing, she told him everything that had happened in the County Head Palace. Xiao Muqing nodded as he listened. After the Sky Eye Scout finished speaking, he was still worried.

"No!" I can see very clearly that other than the dozen or so people in the courtyard who were waiting for our signal, there are no other soldiers. " Sky Eye Scout said with certainty.

Looks like Tan Liu was not lying, he did have the intention to surrender. Upon confirming this point, Xiao Muqing was completely relieved. Rolling his eyes, he thought for a moment and then said to Sky Eye Scout: "Brother, you have spent a lot of effort, go back and think of a way to sneak into the County Head's residence, and meet with Peng Cheng again, tell him, the agreement for tonight, is due to a change within our army, so we were unable to make it on time. Tomorrow night, we will attack the city at night, and when we are attacking the city, our army will use the secret passage to sneak into the city, and have him prepare for battle.

Sky Eye Scout's face became serious, she interfered and saluted: General, do not worry, I will take care of this matter!

Xiao Muqing was very confident in the people with Sky Eye, they were all elites carefully selected by Le Tian.

He stood up and said: "This trip is dangerous, I must be extra careful. I would rather not see Peng Cheng, than alert the enemy and arouse suspicion from the city's Mo Army."

"I understand!" The Sky Eye Scout bowed and said, "General, this lowly one will take his leave!"

Sky Eye Scout bid farewell to Xiao Muqing, and then returned along the same path. Using the cave as a guide, she snuck into Red Dragon Altar City once again without anyone noticing.

As long as he could enter the city, it would not be difficult to enter this temporary County Head Palace. The defenses here were very loose, with only 50 soldiers guarding the area from front to back.

It was not because the city was short of manpower, but rather, Peng Cheng had transferred all his guards to defend the city, but because Wei Bo did not give him any authority over the city, and the current Peng Cheng, with his military power, only had the title of County Head.1

Peng Cheng's heart was clear as a mirror. As long as he waited for the war to end, he would be the unlucky one, and with Wei Bo's character, he would definitely not let the matter of him colluding with Feng Ren go. He would definitely report this in front of the King, and not only would he be done for, even the lives of everyone in the's family would not be able to protect him.

It was because he had seen through the issue at hand that he decided to take this risk. Even though he was burdened with the crime of killing Lu She, he still risked himself by sending people to have an affair with Feng Army.

Peng Cheng had been the head of the Sishui County for a long time. A few years ago, by chance, he heard from a pharmacist that there was a cave on the Crimson Dragon Mountain that ran through the mountainside. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to it, but now, this information had become his life saving treasure.

This was how Tan Liu came to the Wind Camp to meet Xiao Muqing.

Not to mention how Sky Eye Scout had found Peng Cheng in the County Head Palace, and how they had discussed the matter at the moment, the next day, early in the morning, Xiao Muqing brought a few deputy generals and a group of imperial guards to the Yu Army Army Camp.

After hearing the news that the Pingyuan Army commander, Xiao Muqing, had personally come to pay a visit, the Yu Army commander, Chief General, led the numerous jade generals out of the camp to welcome them. After meeting, the two sides couldn't help but exchange greetings, and then Baili Tu brought Xiao Muqing and the rest into Central Army Tent.

Both parties took their seats, and Xiao Muqing went straight to the point: "Today, our army plans to attack Red Dragon Altar forcefully, I wonder if Brother Yu Army's side is convenient for us?"

"Aiya! "Brother Xiao, to tell you the truth, I've been waiting for a long time." Baili Tu was overjoyed, and laughed: "I have waited for Brother Xiao to say these words for a long time. Actually, Brother Xiao only needs to send an envoy to inform us.

Furthermore, Brother Baili is the master and I am the guest. It would be too disrespectful of you to send only a single messenger to inform me of the formation of the army. Furthermore, there are some things that an envoy might not be able to understand!

"Haha, Brother Xiao is too polite." He never thought that the famous Pingyuan Army Commander-in-Chief Xiao Muqing would actually be so courteous, Baili Tu felt that it was rather enjoyable. He leaned forward and asked, "How did Brother Xiao arrange it?"

"During the day, both our armies will eat and drink, sleep and rest, and recover our energy. At night, our armies will attack the Red Dragon Altar again!"

"Does Brother Xiao want a night attack?" Baili Tu asked in surprise.

"That's right!" Attacking the city at night, although there are many inconvenience, but our army had come prepared, and our Mo Army is lax in our defense, maybe our night raids can achieve miraculous results! " Xiao Muqing said solemnly.

The attack at night was extremely disadvantageous for the attackers. The attack was originally very difficult, and the soldiers were all holding torches in one hand and weapons in the other, making it even more difficult. If they didn't have a huge advantage, it was impossible for them to succeed, so why did Xiao Mu Qing suddenly come up with such a rotten idea?

Seeing that he did not reply for a long time, Xiao Muqing knew that he was not in favor of his attack. He smiled and said: "Brother Baili, rest assured, I am very confident in this battle, and we also have a secret weapon. We will definitely be able to unleash unimaginable power in battle."

Ah? Hearing this, the eyes of all the Yu Country Generals s present simultaneously lit up, and their faces unconsciously revealed expressions of puzzlement and curiosity. Baili Tu asked with great interest: "What secret weapon?"

He had long since heard that Feng Country was especially powerful, with all sorts of strange weapons appearing one after another. Could it be that the Military Weapons Division had once again secretly developed some kind of unknown sharp weapon?

Xiao Muqing laughed, and said: "About this, let's keep it a secret for the time being, when the war starts tonight, Brother Baili will naturally find out."

If he refused to say, Baili Tu would not pursue the matter any further, but he was much more at ease. As long as his Feng Army had the ability to destroy the city, what was there for him to be afraid of? When the time comes, he would just have to fight with Feng Army.

He said with a smile: "Alright, Brother Xiao, it's a deal. Tonight, our two armies will attack the Red Dragon Altar!"

"Good!" We'll meet you here in front of Red Dragon Altar City tonight! "

"See you at the city gates!"

Xiao Muqing and Baili Tu made an agreement to work together at night to forcefully attack Red Dragon Altar. To make a long story short, when night fell, all of the Pingyuan Army left the main camp and split into two, heading straight for Crimson Dragon Mountain and straight towards the front of the city.

These two armies were each led by fifty thousand people. The soldiers heading to Scarlet Dragon Mountain were led by the vice commander-in-chief of Pingyuan Army, and the soldiers heading to the front of the city were led by Xiao Muqing himself.
