I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 692
At the end of noon, Wei Changtian and the others who had bid farewell to Liang Qin returned to Jinzhou City.

Although the [-] troops had all left the city, they were still far away from Xinfeng, so Wei Changtian didn't need to accompany the army all the time.

Therefore, he plans to stay in Jinzhou City for one night today, and do two things by the way.

"Son."

Passing through the streets and alleys with people coming and going, the carriage slowly stopped at the door of an inn that had been cleared.

Chu Xianping, who was waiting outside the carriage, immediately greeted him, and whispered to Wei Changtian who had just got out of the carriage:
"An hour ago, the two kingdoms of Qianhui had completed the encirclement of Fengyuan."

"Now Fengyuan is completely an isolated city."

"."

"Ah."

Without stopping, Wei Changtian asked calmly, "How many people have returned from Fengyuan City?"

"Less than one hundred thousand."

Chu Xianping lowered his head and replied: "Even if you count the monks who have not rebelled, it is only about [-] to [-]."

"Twelve to thirty thousand."

Wei Changtian nodded, and asked again: "How many people are currently besieging the city when you return to the two kingdoms?"

"At least half a million, and it's still increasing."

Chu Xianping's expression was not very good-looking: "It seems that they don't plan to slowly advance by occupying a city and defending a city, but are going to flatten the entire Xinfeng area in one go."

"In this way, Miss Xu may not be able to hold on for too long. I am worried that Feng Yuan may fall before we arrive."

"Young master, do you want to make the marching speed of the troops faster?"

"Or let the Tengu army rush over there first, at least it can delay the enemy's offensive."

"."

While walking towards the inn, Chu Xianping analyzed the current situation in a low voice and gave a solution in time.

Wei Changtian, on the other hand, listened without saying a word, and was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

Hundreds of thousands of people guard a big city like Fengyuan.

And there are many Buddhist monks who are not necessarily reliable.

Looking at it this way, Xu Suisui's current situation is much more dangerous than Li Qi's before.

At the beginning, Li Qi defended Fengyuan with nearly [-] old, weak and disabled soldiers. Facing more than [-] elite soldiers in Daning, he finally defended for more than a month.

But now, Xu Suisui's power is less than half of Li Qi's, and the enemy's power is even worse.

How long can she hold on under the ebb and flow. This matter is by no means a simple math problem.

Last time, although Daning's military strength was much stronger than that of Dafeng, the gap had not yet reached the level that could subvert conventional tactics.

In other words, Daning still needs to stop and fight when attacking the city, and Dafeng also has enough troops to rotate when defending the city.

But this time, Ganhui Erguo, whose enemy is five times stronger, does not need tactical adjustments at all, and can maintain a non-stop high-intensity siege.

As far as Xinfeng is concerned, once most of the soldiers go up the city wall, they may never have a chance to come down again.

Therefore, the answer to how long Xu Suisui can hold on may be very pessimistic.

but
"Brother Chu, we are already marching in a hurry. If we go faster, even if the soldiers can arrive a few days earlier, they will be like a mess of sand, and they will have no strength to fight."

"As for the Tengu Army, although they are brave, their numbers are too small after all. They can only be effective as a surprise soldier. To meet the enemy head-on is really to hurt the enemy by one thousand and eight hundred. It is unnecessary."

"So we don't have to adjust the marching plan for the time being, and everything can go on as usual."

"Squeak~"

Pushing open the door of a guest room, Wei Changtian walked to the table and sat down, then turned his head and glanced at Chu Xianping who was frowning.

"Brother Chu, I know you are worried that we will be late."

"Actually, you don't have to worry about it."

"Let me ask you, has there been any new news from Xu Suisui today?"

"This"

Chu Xianping was taken aback for a moment, as if he understood Wei Changtian's meaning: "No, Miss Xu hasn't sent a letter yet."

"Look, this is not enough."

Wei Changtian smiled: "Since she is not in a hurry, why should we be in a hurry."

"Don't worry, didn't I tell you that Xu Suisui's methods are no less than mine."

"It's really the end of the mountain, she will urge me."

"."

"Yes, I understand."

Lowering his head, Chu Xianping really didn't say anything more.

"Young master, if there is nothing else, I will go out first."

"Well, go ahead and call Zhang San over."

"Yes."

"."

Lowering his head and taking two steps back, Chu Xianping quickly turned around and left the room.

And Wei Changtian also turned his gaze to Yang Liushi, who was making tea at the side and remained silent.

"Have you checked what I told you yesterday?"

"Well, I checked."

Yang Liushi came over with a cup of tea, and put the teacup in front of Wei Changtian: "Last night, my family secretly went to Huangfeng Valley, and felt an intermittent monster breath in the back mountain."

"It seems that the information given by Xuan Jing Division should be correct, there is indeed an old demon with deep knowledge locked up there."

"Well, that's fine, then let's go tonight."

Wei Changtian nodded, took a sip of tea from his cup.

This is one of the two things he plans to do while in Jinju.

After getting the solar eclipse beads, he asked the Freemasons and Xuanjing Division to secretly investigate where there are big monsters in Ningshu.

The former has not found any accurate information until now, and what he got is basically rumors with low credibility.

However, Xuan Jing Division has already provided a lot of information because he is in charge of both monster affairs and Jianghu sect affairs.

For example, this "Yellow Maple Valley" is both a place name and a sect.

The latter can be regarded as a relatively large force in the rivers and lakes of Jinzhou. The mountain gate is not far from Jinzhou City, and it is less than a hundred miles north of the city.

If it is put into the fantasy novels of the previous life, Huang Fenggu can be regarded as a standard "medicine sect", in which many immortal grasses and elixir are planted, and they are also very good at medicine and alchemy.

However, compared to the elixir and elixir it "produces", a poison called "Half Moon" has a better name.

Not only is the output extremely small, but it is also extremely toxic, and it is one of the few poisons that can threaten practitioners.

It is said that just one drop can make a third-rank warrior die within three breaths, and three drops can make a middle-rank warrior faint on the spot.

It is impossible to refine ordinary poisons that can have such a powerful effect on practitioners, so Huang Fenggu must have some other means.

Ordinary people will not know the truth of it.

But he couldn't hide it from Xuan Jingsi.

According to the latter's information, there is a high probability that Huangfeng Valley secretly raised a snake demon with at least five hundred years of Taoism, and "Half Moon" was refined from the poison of this demon snake.

Xuan Jing Division's information is already very reliable, and Yang Liushi personally verified it last night, so this matter is basically not fake.

In this way, Wei Changtian became interested.

Of course he was not for the poison, but was going to kill the snake demon to "charge" the solar eclipse bead.

Anyway, I happened to be in Jinju, so I did it easily, and I will have to make another trip in the future if I save money.

As for why not go there immediately, we have to wait until night.
"Boom boom boom!"

"Sir, ma'am."

There was a knock on the door, Zhang San came in and greeted the two of them first, then leaned close to Wei Changtian and asked, "The carriage is ready, do you want to go to Wang's house now?"

"Well, go now."

Wei Changtian drank the tea in the cup, stood up and said to Yang Liushi, "I'm going out for a while, I'll be back soon."

"it is good"

Yang Liushi nodded in surprise, but didn't ask any more questions.

She watched Wei Changtian and Zhang San push the door out, and then blinked suspiciously.

"Wang family?"
