The best ring

"General Zhao Guangzhi, I pay my respects to the Second Prince." Zhao Guangzhi said to Yelu Hongfei respectfully.

"Hello, Second Prince." The generals who followed him said one after another.

Although Yelu Hongfei was not the second prince of their Black Water Kingdom, everyone did not dare to neglect him in the slightest. After all, their Black Water Kingdom was a vassal state of Shuiyue Kingdom.

The captain on duty on the top of the city, while wiping the sweat on his forehead, looked at Zhao Guangzhi and others as if they were saviors.

During this period of time just now, he had been panicked by Yelu Hongfei's questions. Nanping Kingdom's attack on Yangyu Pass was originally a lie, and in order to prevent the lie from being exposed, they could only make up for it with more lies, and the more lies they told, the greater the possibility of being exposed.

Once the matter was exposed, what would be the consequences? The captain was afraid of thinking about it, so he could only deal with Yelu Hongfei and others with difficulty while looking forward to Zhao Guangzhi's early arrival.

"General Zhao, we meet again." Yelu Hongfei looked at Zhao Guangzhi and said, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

As the prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, and a prince favored by the emperor, Yelu Hongfei has the qualifications and confidence to look down on the generals of Nanping Kingdom. What's more, Yelu Hongfei has met Zhao Guangzhi before, and he doesn't like Zhao Guangzhi.

"Yes, it's my honor to meet the second prince again." Zhao Guangzhi said with a smile: "Before Nanping Kingdom attacked Yangyu Pass, I saw that the army of Nanping Kingdom was powerful, so I asked Your Majesty for help. I didn't expect that the second prince would lead the team in person. With the second prince here, the army of Nanping Kingdom is not a concern, and our danger at Yangyu Pass will be resolved soon."

"Your Highness, I have prepared some wine in the city to welcome your Highness and the generals to relieve their fatigue." Zhao Guangzhi said. Zhi continued: "Your Highness, please follow me into the city."

Yelu Hongfei did not leave immediately, but looked at Zhao Guangzhi and said: "I heard that the army of Nanping Kingdom that came to attack Yangyu Pass is as many as 400,000 or 500,000?"

Zhao Guangzhi glanced at the captain on the top of the city. Needless to say, Yelu Hongfei must have learned the news from this captain. However, Zhao Guangzhi could not blame him. After all, he reported this number to Qi Feng first, and it was also predetermined by everyone.

However, now facing Yelu Hongfei's questioning, Zhao Guangzhi felt a little guilty. He slightly dodged his eyes and said: "Yes... yes."

"Now that Yangyu Pass is besieged by the army of Nanping Kingdom, General Zhao actually has the leisure to arrange a banquet?" Yelu Hongfei asked.

"Your Highness is a noble man, so I cannot neglect him." Zhao Guangzhi said, "As for the troops of Nanping, they have been repelled by me for several waves. Now the offensive has obviously weakened, and there is no risk of Yangyu Pass being breached for the time being."

"Oh, so it seems that General Zhao does not need reinforcements. It seems that we don't need to come at all." Yelu Hongfei said, "An army of four or five hundred thousand cannot break through Yangyu Pass. General Zhao is definitely a great general. It is a waste of his talent to stay here to guard this border."

"Your Highness is too kind. , I am ashamed to accept the title. "Zhao Guangzhi said hurriedly: "Although I have repelled several attacks from Nanping, Nanping still has more troops than us. Yangyu Pass is still in danger of being breached. The Second Prince came very timely. We need your reinforcements at Yangyu Pass."

Yelü Hongfei looked at Zhao Guangzhi quietly, until Zhao Guangzhi felt guilty and sweated on his forehead. Then he said lightly: "Lead the way."

"Yes, Your Highness, please follow me." Zhao Guangzhi said hurriedly while he breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, the army of Shuiyue, led by Zhao Guangzhi, slowly entered Yangyu Pass. The defenders on the top of the city watched silently, with different thoughts in their minds.

After the Shuiyue army entered the city, they set up camp to rest. As the elite troops of Shuiyue, the Shanhu Camp's combat quality was not to be worried about. Yelu Hongfei took Hong Qingyun and followed Zhao Guangzhi to the City Lord's Mansion, where Zhao Guangzhi's people had already prepared a banquet.

"Please take a seat, Second Prince." Zhao Guangzhi said.

Yelu Hongfei did not refuse and sat in the first seat directly. As for Hong Qingyun, he sat next to Yelu Hongfei.

The banquet officially began.

During the entire banquet, the Yangyu Pass guards headed by Zhao Guangzhi flattered Yelu Hongfei and Hong Qingyun to the utmost. Yelu Hongfei had a faint smile on his face all the time, and he never refused the flattery and toasts from Zhao Guangzhi and others.

As for Hong Qingyun, he only ate food and didn't drink. In his words, during the war, drinking is not allowed. This is the rule in the army. Zhao Guangzhi and others were embarrassed by this, but they didn't dare to get angry. They had to let Hong Qingyun go and target Yelu Hongfei.

The banquet didn't end until very late. Yelu Hongfei and Hong Qingyun were sent back to the room specially prepared by Zhao Guangzhi.

Hong Qingyun didn't go back to his room immediately, but went to find Yelu Hongfei.

"Second Prince, I have something to say." Hong Qingyun said.

"Go ahead." Yelu Hongfei replied lightly while drinking tea.

As a person who likes to hang out in the army since he was a child, Yelu Hongfei's alcohol tolerance is still not small. Although Zhao Guangzhi and others toasted him with a lot of wine tonight, Yelu Hongfei was still conscious at this time and was not drunk.

"I think Zhao Guangzhi may be lying." Hong Qingyun said.

"It's not Zhao Guangzhi who is lying, but those generals are lying!" Yelu Hongfei said lightly.

"Your Highness, do you think so too?" Hong Qingyun said.

"I'm not stupid." Yelu Hongfei smiled sarcastically: "I know who Zhao Guangzhi is to some extent. With him, he can block the attack of Nanping's four to five million troops? What if Nanping really has that many people? If the army attacks, Yangyu Pass will probably be broken before we can arrive."

Hong Qingyun nodded, and then asked: "Then what should we do now?"

"Just wait and see what happens. I want to see what kind of medicine this Zhao Guangzhi sells in his gourd." Yelu Hongfei sneered: "Send a few people to inquire and see if you can get any useful information."

"Yes." Hong Qingyun said.

"Okay, you go down first, it's getting late, I want to rest." Yelu Hongfei said with a breath.

"I will retire at the end." After Hong Qingyun finished speaking, he stood up and resigned.

After leaving Yelu Hongfei's residence, Hong Qingyun immediately arranged for someone to find out the news.

Zhao Guangzhi on the other side didn't know yet that Yelu Hongfei and Hong Qingyun were already suspicious. He felt that he had taken good care of Yelu Hongfei and Hong Qingyun at the banquet in the evening. Those two people should be very satisfied with themselves, but they didn't. Thinking of it, the two of them turned around and went to touch his ground.
