Chapter 298 Return to the Fleet
"Heh, I must say, Xiao Yuqiang is indeed worthy of being the male protagonist in the book; he is quite talented in military matters."
Mu Wanjun carefully examined the defenses of the entire Lihai City and the eight surrounding cities, and couldn't help but sigh with admiration.
Shen Shuli nodded in agreement: "Yes, it is indeed very impressive."
Xiao Yuqiang had never been on the battlefield or commanded an army.
But the fact that he could arrange the defense of nine prefectures so meticulously shows that he is definitely not a simple-minded person.
Judging from the deployment map...
These nine places protect and support each other, forming a natural strategic point.
Those soldiers were the important bridge connecting the core of the formation, thus forming a super natural formation.
Lihai City is the most important core of the formation.
If an accident occurs in any location, other locations can quickly fill the gap and notify others to provide immediate support.
There are weak points along the coast.
Lihai City is an extremely safe fortress.
The 100,000-strong Zhenbei Army was hidden in a large mountain near Zezhou Prefecture, northwest of Lihai City.
The scouts in the Zhenbei Army, disguised as ordinary refugees, have thoroughly investigated and identified the military deployments along the route from Zezhou Prefecture to Lihai City.
They learned that the new emperor had actually arrived in Lihai City, and his army numbered a full 500,000!
The army was trapped in the mountains and dared not show themselves.
The only saving grace was that they carried enough supplies along the way.
But they dared not eat or use them recklessly, for fear that if they remained trapped in the mountains, these supplies would eventually run out.
"Then what should we do?" Mu Wanjun asked Shen Shuli.
She didn't have any effective advice on this matter, so her best friend had to come up with a solution herself.
Shen Shuli has been thinking about how to break the deadlock during these few days of free time.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't think of a good solution and could only shake her head helplessly.
"I don't have a good solution for the time being either."
"There is a middle-ground strategy, but it only has a 50% chance of success. I can't let the Zhenbei Army take such a risk."
Mu Wanjun also said dejectedly, "Then let's wait for Su's father and the others to arrive before we talk about it."
"This is the only way, but how the large ship will get through and dock is also a problem." Shen Shuli was very troubled.
The troop deployment along the coast is no less than, if not greater than, that of the eight prefectures!
The ship will definitely be detected once it gets close.
and so.
They had to figure out a way to keep the ship away while still getting people ashore successfully.
Su Yunhai and Xiao Yuxuan didn't care, as they both knew Shen Shuli's secret.
Using a helicopter for transportation is not a problem at all.
However, for safety's sake, Xiao Yuxuan also brought quite a few bodyguards to help.
Moreover, there's Xie Chengyuan too.
He also brought quite a few Silver Armor Guards with him.
Shen Shuli couldn't possibly use a helicopter to pick them up, could she?
It's not impossible.
But how could Shen Shuli explain how this futuristic helicopter came to be?
How much of what they said actually made those people believe it?
"I don't quite understand. Lin Wanwan has already lived a second life, so why would she dare to tell others her secret?" Shen Shuli said, puzzled.
Logically speaking, someone who has been given a second chance at life should be more wary than a normal person.
Moreover, given how miserable Lin Wanwan's previous life was, she should be even more cautious.
She simply couldn't understand why Lin Wanwan would dare to casually reveal such an important trump card to others.
Even if that man is an emperor.
The emperor is the least trustworthy person, because his heart is too unfathomable.
He would never stop liking other women for the sake of one woman.
The most interesting thing is.
Lin Wanwan's secret is known to more than just Xiao Yuqiang.
It's estimated that everyone in the mansion, as well as the entire army, knew that Lin Wanwan had obtained all those supplies.
It doesn't matter what excuse Lin Wanwan used to explain it.
Mu Wanjun shook her head coldly, looking like a wise person, and said, "Rebirth doesn't mean you don't grow any brains."
"Hehe, you're absolutely right." Shen Shuli agreed wholeheartedly.
"It will probably take another three or four days for Su's father and the others to arrive. Shall we just wait for them here?" Mu Wanjun changed the subject.
Shen Shuli thought about it and felt that this was a bit of a waste of time.
"Why don't you come with me to Jade City? I've already used up more than half of the jade mine in my space. I might as well take advantage of this time to go to Jade City and mine some more."
Shen Shuli didn't want to keep fleecing someone.
Keyu City is the closest to Lihai City.
And the jade mines there are indeed very rich.
The main problem was that she hadn't done any research and didn't know where else in Dayong had jade mines.
We can only set our sights on Yucheng.
"Okay, let's set off quickly and come back as soon as possible to meet up with Su's dad."
Mu Wanjun had no objections.
I just feel like things are a bit tricky, and I always want to find something to do to relieve my anxiety.
Otherwise, she would keep thinking about this.
"Okay, I'll rest for a while. I was really startled just now. Call me when we get there," Shen Shuli said.
"Okay, you should rest well. There's no rush. You can get back to work after you've rested," Mu Wanjun advised.
Shen Shuli did not refuse, and immediately fell asleep with her eyes closed.
after an hour.
The helicopter landed in a deserted mountain in Yucheng.
Seeing that Shen Shuli was still fast asleep, Mu Wanjun did not disturb her.
After covering her with a blanket, I lay down on the chair next to her to catch up on my own sleep.
She was quite exhausted after several days of this.
The two slept straight through until the afternoon of the following day before waking up.
The main problem is that by the time they go to sleep, it's already dawn.
After the two had filled their stomachs.
Mu Wanjun said, "Could you help me get the equipment and herbs out again? I need to make another batch of sleeping potions. Otherwise, I'm too bored and need to find something to do."
Shen Shuli nodded and handed the items to her.
Based on her previous experience in finding jade mines, Shen Shuli once again began searching for jade veins in the mountains.
Three days later.
Full of cargo, Shen Shuli and Mu Wanjun flew a helicopter to the sea to locate the fleet.
The fleet is moving much slower than before.
It's at least a day's journey to Lihai City Wharf.
"Dad, I'm near the fleet. Which ship are you on?" Shen Shuli called Su Yunhai over the walkie-talkie.
Su Yunhai immediately replied, "Daughter, Dad is on ship number eight. Wait for me to clear the area."
Shen Shuli: "Okay, Dad."
Ship number eight led the way at the very front.
Su Yunhai immediately ordered his crew to slow down and let the other ships pass ahead.
Then the crew on deck were asked to temporarily leave.
After landing the helicopter on the deck, Shen Shuli and Mu Wanjun secretly slipped back to their room.
To prevent Xie Chengyuan from discovering that Shen Shuli and Mu Wanjun were not on the ship.
Xiao Yuxuan deliberately chose to be on the same boat as Xie Chengyuan.
Put Su Yunhai, Shen Shuli, and Mu Wanjun on the same boat.
This way, Xie Chengyuan would not discover that the two of them had sneaked away.
Xie Chengyuan could tell that Xiao Yuxuan was deliberately preventing him from getting close to Ship No. 8.
They thought the kid was jealous, feeling that he was getting too close to the Su family and wanted to compete with him.
No matter how much he pleaded, he insisted that he had not taken a liking to the princess.
Xiao Yuxuan seemed even angrier.
In Xiao Yuxuan's mind, Shen Shuli was excellent in every way and more beautiful than Mu Wanjun.
But he couldn't allow others to look down on Mu Wanjun.
Why should anyone dislike Ah Jun?
But you can't like it either!
Xiao Yuxuan felt that there might be something wrong with her mind, but she didn't want to get treatment.
Inside Su Yunhai's room.
Shen Shuli told Su Yunhai everything that had happened in the past few days, without missing a single detail.
Su Yunhai never expected that the news his daughter brought back this time would be so unexpected!
"What?! Lin Wanwan actually has a cheat system similar to a trading system! That's too overpowered!"
Su Yunhai couldn't hold back any longer and stood up abruptly, slamming his hands hard on the table.
Shen Shuli and Mu Wanjun nodded seriously. Even though they had known about it for several days, they still found it outrageous.
"That's right, she buys at least 1.5 million catties of rice, flour and cooking oil every day, which is worth a lot of money."
"Fortunately, we haven't found that she bought any supplies other than food and clothing yet, perhaps because her level is not high enough."
Mu Wanjun shared her opinion for the two to consider.
In her previous life, she loved reading novels and had a deep understanding of system novels, so she immediately explained it to her father.
Su Yunhai plopped back down in his original spot.
Trying to process this unbelievable news.
Fortunately, Su Yunhai's ability to accept information is relatively good.
They quickly accepted this reality.
If he and so many other people can travel to the world of the book, then it doesn't seem so hard to accept that others have cheat codes.
"It really is a hidden danger. It's all my fault for not being ruthless enough to eliminate him directly back then," Su Yunhai thought with regret.
That was the best opportunity he had to harm Lin Wanwan and the Lin family back in the mountain village.
However, he felt that the feud between the Su family and the Lin family should not escalate to the point of using each other's lives to resolve it.
They also made up for the debt of humiliation the Lin family inflicted on their daughter, doubly so.
It's unlikely to involve any loss of life.
After all.
It's also because they are deeply influenced by modern values, and besides, he was a soldier and didn't want to push things too far.
But his mindset had already changed due to all the experiences he had along the way.
In this chaotic world of natural disasters that devour people, kindness is the worst thing you can do.
Otherwise, it's like playing with your own life.
"Dad, don't look for the cause within yourself. We don't need to fight amongst ourselves. It's always someone else who's wrong."
Seeing her father blaming himself, Shen Shuli quickly comforted him.
"Think about it, if we hadn't spared Lin Wanwan's life, we wouldn't have gotten these millions of tons of grain now."
"It's more valuable for Lin Wanwan to be alive."
"I originally wanted to capture Lin Wanwan and keep her as a beast of burden for us, but Xiao Gou acted too quickly, and I failed to capture her."
Shen Shuli felt increasingly regretful, always feeling that some kind of force was protecting Lin Wanwan, an important character in the book.
"Dad Su, Ali, do you think it's possible that if we really kill Lin Wanwan or Xiao Yuqiang, the world in this book might collapse, leading to its destruction and the death of all of us?"
Mu Wanjun was a little frightened by her own thought when she suddenly realized this possibility.
If that's really the case.
Then they really need to carefully consider whether they can make a move on the male and female leads.
Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai had never thought of this before, and they were both stunned when they first heard this theory.
Su Yunhai rarely read novels before and had no idea how outrageous the novel's setting was.
But Shen Shuli also enjoys reading novels in her spare time.
