After Qin Guang withdrew his troops, he stationed five miles outside the city, waiting for the opportunity to send troops.

The heavy rain was still pouring down, instantly clearing the blood stains on the ground, leaving the traces of the war without a trace.

In the first head-on confrontation, under the command of Shui Qianzhou, the Qingfeng City Guards advanced and retreated properly, with reasonable offense and defense. They successfully won the first battle and their morale rose sharply.

Many nobles have already turned to the hearts of water and Qianzhou.

Although Shu Qianzhou's forced them to feel uncomfortable, the concept of the strong being respected made them understand what Shu Qianzhou did.

As long as you can show the corresponding strength, it is the truth.

If Shu Qianzhou loses today, many nobles will definitely betray Shu Qianzhou.

Now that Shui Qianzhou wins, there will naturally be nobles who will turn against each other and choose to sincerely help the Shui family.

This...is reality.

As long as the Shui family holds corpse poison in their hands, it will be very difficult for the enemy to break through the city gate.

Just continue to build a narrow passage around the city gate, and Qingfeng City will be as solid as a god.

After the war, Shui Qianzhou ordered many guards to build narrow passages around the city gates to exert the effect of corpse poison. No matter how many enemies there are, it is impossible to attack the city.

In the lobby of the city lord's mansion, Shui Qianzhou and the noble patriarchs were discussing follow-up battle plans.

Although the first wave of attack has been defended, the Eight Princes will not give up. The enemy will definitely come again. They must be prepared for defense.

After the meeting, Shui Qianzhou summoned Shui Lingshi and Mu Chen and said, "Today's great victory, I would like to thank Mr. Mu for help."

"It's nothing. These corpse poisons are all obtained from the secret realm. They cannot be considered my own contribution. Lingshi also has its efforts."

Shui Lingshi: "Father, although the Eight Princes army retreated temporarily, he will never let us go. My father is sure of the subsequent battle."

"This, my father has thought that there is a corpse poison at the city gate, so they should not attack. If they want to take down Qingfeng City, they can only pass through the water."

Qingfeng City is backed by the canal and is the largest port city in the northwest corner of the Celestial Empire. Around the canal, Qingfeng City has no city walls.

Since the Eight Princes cannot break through the city wall, the only chance to take Qingfeng City is to take the port.

As long as the port is taken, the two sides can only confront each other head-on. On the front battlefield, the Water Family is definitely not the opponent of the guards.

The final battle will surely take place on the canal.

The water army of the Shui family has great combat power and is very familiar with the water situation of the canal. If they fight a water battle, they will be confident.

Shui Lingshi said happily in her heart: "Now the canal is filled with heavy rain and wind and waves. Ordinary ships cannot sail at all. Even warships will be greatly affected. The Eight Princes army is not familiar with the water nature. If they really want to start a water war,

We can definitely win.”

Shui Qianzhou also looked confident and said, "Don't worry, my Shui family soldier has been practicing water war for many years. If you want to defeat us on the canal, even the guards can't do it. You have confidence in your father."

Mu Chen didn't think so. After all, Lei Yan Sect also has masters joining. If they really want to fight, they may be able to play a great advantage.

Mu Chen didn't explain these things, and he had to overcome them by himself.

On the other side, the Eight Princes Army camp.

In the main business tent, the excitement of men and women came from the sound of excitement...

Outside the account, a guard reported: "Reported to the Eight Princes, the Qin Commander asked the Lord to go to the Grand Camp to discuss."

"I understand!" An impatient response came.

After a while, a noble lady in a torn clothes and covered with scars walked out, and the eighth prince followed her, grabbed the noble lady's hair with one hand, and looked angry.

"Bitch, useless things, I actually want me to make peace with Qingfeng City! Come on, drag this bitch down and act as a military slave!"

When the noble lady heard this, her face turned pale and said, "No...Prince...My Lord, I know that I am wrong. I beg the prince to be kind, I beg the prince to be kind..."

"Get out, I won't drag this crazy woman down for me!"

After receiving the order, a guard immediately pulled the noble lady down.

The eight princes followed and said, "Prince, what did the wife do that makes the prince so angry."

"Hmph, I am the woman whom the Shui family in Qingfeng City has given me to me. What good things can I have? The Shui family killed me Tao'er. This bitch actually wants me to reconcile with the Shui family. It's just a matter of death."

In the aristocratic world, women have no status, and beautiful women are often used as bargaining chips to connect with the relationship between the two families.

The Shui family is a great nobleman in Guangling County and has contacts with the Prince's Mansion. It is very normal for Shui Qianzhou to send some beautiful maids to the Eight Princess.

If the two families have a good relationship, these women still have a way out. Once the two families get into trouble, the consequences of these women will be very miserable. The only way for them to survive is to ensure that the relationship between the two families is harmonious.

Such transactions are very common among nobles and are one of the reasons why Mu Chen does not like nobles.

Prince Eight: "Stop talking nonsense, let's go quickly, Commander Qin is waiting in a hurry."

When the Eight Princes entered the camp, Commander Qin, Elder Liu, and the Chief Military Doctor were all there.

They are studying the zombie-like soldiers and trying to find ways to crack the corpse poison.

The military doctor hesitated for a while and said in a panic: "Damn it, I have never seen this poison before, and I can't solve it."

Commander Qin showed anger and was about to get angry, but Elder Liu said: "This is a corpse poison, an ancient poison inherited from ancient times. Ordinary mortals naturally cannot be solved."

Lei Yan Sect often explores secret realms, and has often come into contact with things like corpse poison, so it is very familiar with this.

"Corpse poison! Elder Liu has a way to relieve this poison!"

"No, the corpse poison used by the Shui family is extremely high. After being poisoned, the corpse transformation speed is extremely fast. Such corpse poison is absolutely extraordinary. If it is not carefully studied, it may be difficult to detoxify."

The corpse poison in the Qingmu Demon Realm, but the terrifying poison was born after the fall of the corpse ancestor. Even after millions of years of evolution, the corpse poison is countless times weaker, and it is extraordinary to be solved by ordinary people. Even Mu Chen wants to detoxify.

, it all takes some thought.

Commander Qin was shocked and said, "Even Elder Liu can't remove this poison! When did the Shui family have such a powerful poison?"

"This level of corpse poison is not something that can be cultivated by the water family. It must be what they have obtained from the secret realm. However, why can they cultivate such corpse poison? I also think it is strange that although corpse poison is easy to obtain, I want to

It is not easy to maintain its toxicity and cultivate it in large quantities."

With Mu Chen's knowledge, cultivating some corpse poison is of course just to raise your hand, but for ordinary people, it is very difficult to maintain the activity of corpse poison.

"Secret Realm? There is such a dangerous thing in the secret realm!"

"The secret realm is dangerous, but not just that. Judging from the news sent back by Lei Zhen, the Qingfeng City secret realm is a very high-level secret realm, and there must be many secrets inside. It is not surprising that this kind of corpse poison appears."

Commander Qin: "But, if the Shui family has this kind of corpse poison, if our army forcibly rushes to the city gate, it will definitely suffer heavy losses."

Although the Eight Princess was mediocre, they also understood the terrible corpse poison and said, "You can't rush, you can't rush! The city gate is narrow, what kind of corpse poison? Once poisoned, the soldiers will die soon, and they will bite people wildly after death.

It is too bad for our army in such a narrow place."

After hesitating, the commander of Qin said, "Since we cannot rush to the city gate, then we... can only walk on the water."

Prince Eight nodded and agreed: "The waterway is good...the waterway is good. Most of the entire Qingfeng City is by the canal, with many ports and a wide area. Even if they use corpse poisonous arrows, we can still prevent it." (
