Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1258 The troops are divided into two groups
Bai Ming's bright face was covered with a faint shadow.

The sudden gloomy look caused several people to stop joking.

Liu Yao asked: "General, what happened to you?"

Bai Ming nodded slightly: "Your Highness, I have some thoughts about the dredging of the river and your Highness's safety."

Meng Ziang interjected: "We have imagined many things that may happen and are ready to deal with them. Why is the general still worried about this?"

Bai Mingwei said: "In order to prevent us from solving the flood and relieving the victims, our opponents will do anything they can."

"Even if we deal with it, we can't afford to lose time, so I want to change my itinerary plan and make other arrangements for the next trip."

Then, Bai Mingwei explained her plan in detail.

No matter the details, she analyzed everything in an orderly manner.

Liu Yao couldn't help but nod after hearing this.

He made a decision immediately: "Just follow the general's plan. In the meantime, the general and Mr. Meng will be busy."

After the three people reached an agreement, they went their separate ways.

Liu Yao summoned his cronies for discussion, Bai Mingwei summoned Ah Liu, and Meng Ziang packed up important items.

The night curtains were drawn down, and the turbid water surface reflected blurry stars.

As the boat moved forward, the water became more turbulent.

The boat Bai Mingwei and the others were on was carefully built and could still run smoothly.

But the boat the guard was in was in danger of capsizing.

Bai Mingwei walked to the deck and issued an order: "There is a bend in the river ahead. Move the boat there to anchor. If the water does not decrease, we will set off again tomorrow morning."

The whole team changed direction in an instant.

Soon they gathered and anchored in a calm river bend.

Due to widespread flooding, the amount of water in the river is inherently uncertain, sometimes rapid and sometimes slow, but this section of the river is always fast.

Sailing at night is bound to be dangerous.

So we can only stay here to avoid the rapids and waves this night.

And in the dead of night, two people quietly left the team without anyone noticing.

After landing on the shore, Liu Yao glanced back at the place where the team stayed, then stepped lightly and continued moving forward.

The person accompanying him was Meng Ziang, who was carrying a small baggage.

The two of them walked through the night without anyone noticing.

As for Liu Yao's cronies, they guarded the boat as usual, creating the illusion that Liu Yao still existed.

The next day.

at dusk.

In this fashion, no one noticed the departure of Liu Yao and Meng Ziang.

Bai Mingwei stood on the deck and looked at the turbid water.

The dead branches and leaves mixed in the current are like lingering mosquitoes in summer, swept by the current, floating around the boat, and scattered by the waves of the moving boat.

The little gray ferret suddenly jumped on her shoulder and whispered something quietly in her ear.

Bai Mingwei looked in the direction pointed by the little gray ferret. The small hilltop that had not been affected by the flood was completely silent.

Like the calm before the storm.

"Here he comes, so fast."

Bai Mingwei said something in his heart, then turned around and entered the cabin.

There were two people sitting in the cabin where they were discussing.

Judging from their attire, they are Liu Yao and Meng Ziang.

However, the face under the swaying candle shadow was unfamiliar. "be prepared."

Bai Ming said softly, then turned and returned to his room.

……

at the same time.

Liu Yao and Meng Ziang had been traveling for a day.

After leaving the team, their journey became extremely difficult.

Even Meng Ziang, who was used to a life of escape, seemed a little unable to do what he wanted.

But Liu Yao continued to discuss the next plan with Meng Ziang during the short rest time, with his tired face on his face.

"Twenty miles further on, we will reach the county seat of Guang'an County. According to our pace and the current road conditions, we will probably have to walk almost overnight to get there."

Meng Ziang ate the food in his little bundle silently.

Due to physical reasons, he did not dare to share anything with Liu Yao to avoid accidentally injuring Liu Yao.

After hearing Liu Yao's words, he used a small branch and a weak candlelight to draw a route on the map:
"The river section here is relatively wide and gentle. Even if there is a flood, it will not have much impact. If we take this road, although we will cover a few more miles, the chance of unforeseen circumstances will be smaller."

Liu Yao was silent for a moment, and then said: "No, we don't have carriages and horses. A few miles will consume our time. We need to reach the county seat of Guang'an County before dawn tomorrow to ensure that our plan is not biased."

Meng Ziang was a little worried: "Your Highness, if you take a dangerous road rashly, if something unexpected happens, then you won't be able to do anything."

Liu Yao said resolutely: "The general used her body as a bait to allow us to solve the problem under the hood and complete the plan on time, so that all her hard work would not be in vain."

"Furthermore, sir, he said that this route is safe and easy to travel, so the refugee team fleeing the famine will definitely take this route. The opponents will be eager to keep an eye on the refugees everywhere. This is tantamount to increasing the risk of exposure."

"Once the opponent discovers our plan and dispatches manpower to deal with us, the danger we will encounter will definitely be greater than the uncertainty of this dangerous road."

It turns out that Bai Mingwei always felt that Yuan Wu must have other plans waiting for them after the last failure.

Just because the news channel was intercepted, Qin Fengye and the prince, who had not taken any action before, would definitely take corresponding actions.

The Jiangbei area is so large and the opponent's forces are so deeply rooted that Zero and his secret guards cannot clear it out in a short time.

It's just that she was busy dealing with the numerous problems before, and she didn't have a more precise guess for the time being.

It wasn't until she boarded the ship that she had time to go over the matter and roughly guessed her opponent's next move - to repeat their old tricks and use refugees to deal with them.

Because last time His Highness the Ninth Prince created an image of someone who would never abandon the refugees and ignore them when he was pacifying the riots of the refugees.

So this time, the opponent once again used the refugees to set up a trap.

Even if they knew it was a trap, they could only jump in.

Therefore, Bai Mingwei suggested that the troops be divided into two groups, with Liu Yao secretly contacting the relevant officials who had already been discovered by the secret guards, while she used herself as bait to attract the opponent's attention.

But she also understood that after the last experience, it was extremely likely that her opponent would see through her plan. How could His Highness Ninth Prince's trip not be dangerous at all?

Before parting, she told Liu Yaoqian and Wan that they must find time to complete the plan so as to ensure their safety to the greatest extent.

This is also the reason why Liu Yao insists on taking risks at this moment.

After hearing Liu Yao's analysis, Meng Ziang had no objection: "Your Highness is right. After a short rest, I will take this route with Your Highness."

Liu Yao smiled and said: "Mr. Hardworking, bear the pain of running around with me."

Meng Ziang smiled and said nothing.

At this moment, Ah Liu suddenly appeared.

She was the reason why Bai Mingwei dared to let Liu Yao and Meng Ziang leave quietly.

He would never show up unless it was an emergency.

This shows that they did encounter an emergency.

But when he saw him, he immediately extinguished the remaining candle and lowered his voice: "Your Highness, there is a situation!"
