Chapter 1979: Guessing Her Identity
“Master, our men were found in the Yellow Sand Field at the border between the Black Cloud Kingdom and the Longyan Kingdom.” The subordinate reported to Xiao Jingrui,” Many brothers died the same way as before. It was like they were hit by a hidden weapon and killed in one blow! Some of our brothers were killed with a single slash, and none of them survived!”

When this secret guard reported, his originally expressionless face seemed a little heavy.

This was the sixth batch of people that had been sent out.

The first batch of people sent out had more than a hundred people, but every batch ended up with no survivors.

Therefore, they couldn’t get any useful information.

Now, they had already lost over a thousand dark guards. The Dark Guard Battalion had lost almost half of their dark guards.

Xiao Jingrui listened to his subordinate’s report and frowned.

Those who were injured by hidden weapons would die in one slash!

He had sent six batches of people over in a row, and all of them died in the same situation.

Did he miss something?

Injured by a hidden weapon, killed in one slash?

Xiao Jingrui pondered this sentence.

A knife… A knife…

Suddenly, his eyes widened in surprise.

Yuwen Longyan’s imperial guards all used swords, not sabres.

There was only one person who wielded a sabre and whose martial arts skills were higher than the old Emperor’s imperial guards, and that was Jiang Zhennan.

After thinking this through, Xiao Jingrui’s face was extremely gloomy.

He was angry at his own negligence.

“Jiang Zhennan!” Xiao Jingrui gritted his teeth.

If he knew that Jiang Zhennan had come with Lin Yuelan, he would have to kill Jiang Zhennan no matter the price.

Once Jiang Zhennan was eliminated, no one in the world would be able to stop him from unifying the world.

“Damn it!” Xiao Jingrui cursed.

She didn’t know if she was scolding Jiang Zhennan or her own negligence.

This was because he recalled what the Governor of Huaifeng City, Fang Yulin, had told him. Lin Yuelan’s captain of the guards, had told him, “Go and tell Xiao Jingrui that our Longyan Kingdom will definitely avenge him!”

Of course, when Fang Yulin passed on this message, he did not dare to call their Emperor by his name.

When Xiao Jingrui heard these words, he thought that those people were angry.

Now that he thought about it, the person who could say this must be Jiang Zhennan.

Only Jiang Zhennan had the confidence and ability to say such words. How could an ordinary captain of guards speak on behalf of the Longyan Kingdom’s army?

After figuring this out, Xiao Jingrui was annoyed.

He had missed such a great opportunity to get rid of Jiang Zhennan.

What was even more terrifying was that his actions had angered Jiang Zhennan. Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan, who had already escaped, would definitely join forces to take revenge.

In recent years, the Longyan Kingdom has developed very quickly. The army was not short of food and pay, and the soldiers were strong and strong. Jiang Zhennan had not slacked off in recent years. He had strengthened the training of these troops and strictly enforced military discipline.

Moreover, his spy reported that Jiang Zhennan had specially trained a special team called the Eagle Special Forces.

This troop consisted of the most elite soldiers of each battalion, each with their own strengths.

Up until now, he still didn’t understand the uniqueness of this team, but he felt that this team would definitely be of great use.

It was a pity that his spies did not find out how to train this team. Otherwise, he would definitely set up such a team for future use.

In the past few years, the Black Clouds Kingdom and the Longyan Kingdom seemed to be living in peace on the surface. However, which king did not have the ambition to unify the world?

He just didn’t find an opportunity!

This time, he finally found a chance to break through, but he underestimated Jiang Zhennan’s ability and let him go.

This time, Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan would definitely take revenge when they returned.

However, he had already joined forces with Aduo Chai Country and gathered an army to challenge them at the borders of the three countries.

Since Jiang Zhennan had accompanied Lin Yuelan to the Black Clouds Kingdom, it was obvious that the commander-in-chief in the army was not Jiang Zhennan himself.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingrui’s eyes suddenly lit up.

He quickly took out a pen and wrote a note.

Then, he put his hand to his mouth and whistled.

A moment later, a white messenger pigeon appeared in front of him.
