This Bai Yuhao had previously protected the Yi City, and then, he suddenly married Liu Yunxuan, and was even appointed as the new commander of the Crimson Dragon Army by Liu Cheng. All of this was extremely dramatic, and in a short period of time, everyone knew the name of Bai Yuhao, who was originally a nameless nobody, was now known by everyone in the Palace City and even the Imperial Family.
And this time, Bai Yuhao's name was no longer like the last time at the Yi City War. It was a fleeting sight, because he, who had married Liu Yunxuan and was appointed as the new commander of the Crimson Dragon Army, could already be considered quite a figure in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. Just being able to marry Liu Yunxuan was enough to shock the entire imperial family.
Since she was young, Liu Yunxuan, because of her outstanding talent and intelligence, had been the center of attention for her Holy Dragon Kingdom. After she had grown up, she had even grown up to be an unparalleled beauty with profound strength, and in addition to Spirit Controller's outstanding talent, she was proficient in military strategies and strategy, and was even able to lead troops to war. This also made her the only woman in the world with profound strength. Dragon Emperor also knew that Liu Cheng only had this one daughter, so he didn't insist.
Liu Yunxuan had also received the admiration of those royal disciples. Apart from this, the disciples of the famous families and families in Holy Dragon Kingdom also had their own feelings for Liu Yunxuan. Unfortunately, no one was able to move Liu Yunxuan's heart.
However, now that Liu Yunxuan had suddenly married Bai Yuhao, it naturally made countless people sad and jealous. Thus, who exactly was Bai Yuhao? What most people wanted to know was what kind of background Bai Yuhao had. What they wanted to know was what ability did this Bai Yuhao have to get Liu Yunxuan? And he even married at such a lightning fast speed.
However, what surprised Dragon Emperor the most wasn't the marriage of Bai Yuhao and Liu Yunxuan, but the fact that Liu Cheng had appointed Bai Yuhao as the new commander of the Crimson Dragon Army. Who said that appointing a commander was not a big deal, but in view of Bai Yuhao's previous anonymity, it was inconceivable for him to suddenly marry Liu Yunxuan and then become the commander of the Crimson Dragon Army.
In addition, the Crimson Dragon Army had already invested all of their strength and decided to fight Woodgod Kingdom to the death. Logically speaking, Liu Cheng would personally take charge, but Liu Cheng had given such an important responsibility to Bai Yuhao. This was something Dragon Emperor found hard to understand.
As the war was coming, Dragon Emperor was unable to interfere with Liu Cheng's appointment. However, he was still a bit worried that Liu Cheng seemed to be being a little too childish this time.
Last time, the Red Dragon Legion almost lost due to the great disaster brought about by the Yi City. This time, Liu Cheng caused another fellow, whose background no one knew, to become the new commander of the Crimson Dragon Army. If the Crimson Dragon Army was defeated this time, then Liu Cheng and the Red Dragon Legion would be in big trouble.
At this moment, in the First Prince's quarters within the Palace City.
"Big High Priest, who exactly is this Bai Yuhao? How could he suddenly marry Liu Cheng's daughter, and even get appointed by Liu Cheng as the Commander of the Crimson Dragon Army? " He saw Loong Ao's sword-like eyebrows furrow as he asked High Priest, who was sitting beside him. For the past few days, he had been having an ominous premonition.
"I'm not sure either, but I can be sure that Bai Yuhao definitely doesn't come from a famous family, and he definitely isn't from a royal family. But what's strange is that Liu Cheng logically wouldn't have married his daughter to a nobody. In other words, with Liu Yunxuan's peerless beauty and strength, it was impossible for her to look up to ordinary people. "So, there must be something special about Bai Yuhao …" Big High Priest also felt that this was somewhat inconceivable.
"Send someone to the Border of Lianluo right now to find out Bai Yuhao's background …" Loong Ao hesitated for a moment before giving the command.
"Is the First Prince worried about something?" Big High Priest seemed to have seen through Loong Ao's thoughts.
"You can check it out first." Loong Ao waved his hand.
"I see. However, it seems like the First Prince and Mistress have not made any progress lately, which is not good! " Big High Priest nodded and continued.
"Don't mention it. I've been looking for her almost every day, but she's closed the door as if she's deliberately avoiding me." Loong Ao felt a headache coming on.
"It can't be that she has become aware of what happened that year, right?" Big High Priest was worried.
"Probably not." Loong Ao shook his head.
"I hope so. I'll take my leave first. " After Big High Priest said this, he retreated.
Three days later.
The Scarlet Dragon Army's fifty thousand strong army was only a few kilometers away from Woodgod Kingdom's border. Because the sky was dark, it was not suitable for them to march, so they set up camp on the spot.
At that moment, there were a lot of people gathered in the tent. Among them were two captains of the elite group, four Elite Cavalry Commander, as well as a few thousand cavalry commanders including Ma Lan.
"According to our investigations, this time, the number of troops that are distributed across the border with Woodgod Kingdom totalled about forty thousand. In the battle of Yi City, our Woodgod Kingdom lost nearly thirty thousand troops, adding the loss from the battle of Kylin Valley, this forty thousand should be all that our Woodgod Kingdom has left. Furthermore, because the battles at the other borders are still in a deadlock, we are unable to mobilize a large number of our, so I think that Lili will not be able to receive any reinforcements for a short period of time. " At this point, Ji Yulin reported on the intelligence gathered by his elite group.
Although this elite group did not have many people, they had a clear division of labor. Therefore, there were also those responsible for infiltrating Woodgod Kingdom and spying on the military, and the members of the elite group all had extraordinary strength, at the very least, they had the strength of Eighth Grade of the Earth Battle Level. Thus, compared to normal scouts, it was easier to gather accurate and confidential information.
"Are there any specific manpower distribution?" Bai Yuhao squinted his eyes and asked.
"According to the information just sent back, these forty thousand soldiers are mainly in these three regions." Ji Yulin immediately pointed at the three areas on the map.
"Firstly, the White Water Ridge is located on the left flank of the defensive line. Due to the fact that the terrain is rather high and there are two circles around the water, Yi Shoudao was unable to attack it. Next was the Mist Plain located in the middle area. Because of the constant fog, they were unable to fight, forming a natural barrier, so they had only deployed five thousand troops. And the rest of the troops were spread out on the right side of the defensive line, which was also known as the Dragon Tiger Path. As the terrain is flat, empty and easy to attack, Woodgod Kingdom will congregate most of the troops here to defend. " Ji Yulin explained to the three areas one by one.
"Oh." After listening to Ji Yulin's explanation, Bai Yuhao immediately stroked his chin in deep thought.
