Chapter 272 The King of Jiangnan is about to grab food!
Not to worry, they had to go out and ask.
As a result, they actually learned a shocking news. Their grandmaster Mu Lao was indeed robbed, but it was not the prince who was rescued, but Ye Laixiang who was disguised as the prince.
Ye Laixiang's disguise was so successful that no one could see any flaws along the way.
And it was hidden very deeply, and actually killed Mu Lao in the process of being rescued.
During the battle at Hulao Pass, he also killed another Great Xia Grandmaster.
The two Great Xia Grandmasters died in his hands, terrifying and hateful.
Therefore, the rescue operation of the Prince was naturally a failure.
When they heard the news, all of them were stunned and their backs were soaked.
"Master Wang, what should we do now?"
"His Royal Highness has not been rescued. Our Da Xia Enshrined died in this operation. How can I explain it to His Majesty after returning?"
"Your Majesty will definitely be furious, we are finished!"
"Master Wang, think of a way!"
...
All the Daxia officials panicked.
Lord Wang sighed, his face full of bitterness: "What else can I do? I can only go back and take the blame to Your Majesty! His Royal Highness did not rescue him, and Mu Lao was planted again. He really lost his wife and lost his army! Kindness, don't take your anger on us!"
The others nodded, their faces very ugly.
Touching my chest, it's cool.
At this moment, a tall and mighty man broke in, looked at everyone 23 eagerly, and nodded: "It seems that you have found the wrong person, you should be the Daxia officials who came to negotiate with me this time, right? "
Now that the grass and trees are full of soldiers, seeing a man with a sturdy imposing manner break in, the Daxia delegation is frightened into the corner.
One of the officials said hesitantly: "Who are you, you... who are you? Find... what do we do?"
"This official is the catcher of the six doors of Dawu, Daniel!"
Daniel stood with one hand on his hips and a knife in the other, standing very mighty, with a serious face: "This official is here because he is entrusted by Uncle Zhongyong, the governor of Detian Prefecture, and Lord Lin Beifan, the sacrificial wine of Guozijian, to bring you here. A word of mouth!"
Everyone in Daxia looked at each other in dismay, and Lord Wang asked, "What does he want to tell us?"
"Lord Lin, let me tell you!" Daniel shouted: "Remember to bring back the indemnity treaty and credentials, and make compensation according to the above records. Don't play tricks for us, or you will look good! We can kill you. The two grandmasters, you can kill the third one, or even kill them in your palace, at your own risk!"
Everyone in Daxia broke out in a cold sweat again.
Lord Wang tremblingly cupped his hands and said: "Yes, this... Sir Daniel, this official remembers it!"
"Just remember, this officer is gone!"
Daniel looked at everyone again and left coldly.
Everyone in Daxia returned with the indemnity treaty and credentials, and also reported everything to Emperor Xia.
Xia Huang also became honest, and he paid according to the compensation letter honestly. He didn't dare to take any action, he was afraid to join another grandmaster, and he was even more afraid that the other party would kill him in the capital.
A strong man who can kill a grandmaster is terrifying!
As a result, a large amount of materials were transported to Hulao Pass, and then transported along the waterway to Detianfu, the capital of Dawu.
Dawu's treasury was rapidly enriched.
However, this made Jiangnan King greedy.
You know, what he lacks the most right now is food.
Since there was no food, he had to rob other people's food, causing the Jiangnan economy to collapse. Since there was no food, he had to let his soldiers go to the fields and dig the roots to eat.
But now, the imperial court has so much food and so many materials, which really makes him jealous.
After thinking about it for two days, King Jiangnan gritted his teeth and said, "Just grab it!"
Wang Fugui was shocked: "My lord, it is too dangerous to do this! You must know that in order to protect the food, the imperial court sent heavy troops to escort us along the road! If we want to grab the food, we will definitely face the imperial court directly! We should avoid its edge! It is extremely unwise for us to send troops at this time!"
"Also, even if we grab the food, how do we bring the food back? We are carrying a lot of food, and we must be slow to move for 10 minutes. How can we be an opponent of the court?"
"There is one last point!" Wang Fugui handed over his hands and said: "My lord, it is really not appropriate to raise troops now! The imperial court is still powerful. Once we face the imperial court, it will be inevitable that we will lose our troops, and in the end, it will be cheaper for others!"
King Jiangnan looked tangled, and this was where he hesitated.
Grab food is very dangerous, and it is very likely that the soldiers will be damaged and the generals will be lost.
But without food, his development was limited.
"So, this king has come up with a good plan!"
"My lord, what's the plan?"
"Since it is very dangerous for us to grab food, it is better to contact another person to grab food together! In this way, someone will share the risk with us, and our chance of success will be greatly improved!"
The King of Jiangnan looked at Wang Fugui with a hint of anticipation: "What do you think of this plan?"
"My lord, this plan is really good, but with whom?"
"Of course it's this king's brother, King Jibei!" The king of Jiangnan said with a smile: "He's in the north and I'm in the south. If you go up and down, and attack from both sides, the odds of winning are high! This king will write a letter to him, as long as he has ambition, He won't be indifferent! Maybe, he is also eyeing this material now!"
The more Jiangnan Wang thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible, and finally slapped his thigh: "That's it!"
So he immediately repaired the book to the king of Jibei to discuss the matter of grabbing food.
When the King of Jibei saw this, he was quite moved.
However, he did not make up his mind, but handed the letter to Mr. Zhuge next to him.
"Master, come and see, do you think this plan is feasible?"
Mr. Zhuge looked at it and said with a smile: "My lord, the king of Jiangnan is short of food, so he has the idea of grabbing food! However, he is afraid of the imperial troops and horses, so he contacted me and waited for a joint action!"
The King of Jibei nodded, and he also had the same idea.
"Master, what do you think?"
Mr. Zhuge cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the lord, this subordinate thinks this plan is inappropriate!"
The King of Jibei was surprised: "Why is it wrong?"
"First of all, grabbing food is really dangerous!"
Mr. Zhuge said: "This batch of grain is so important to the imperial court, they must be strictly guarded, we don't have much chance to start! Even if we grab the grain, how to bring it back is still a problem!"
"In this process, there will be struggles and killings, and loss of troops will be inevitable! If the imperial court is in a hurry and directly burns the grain, it will not be worth the loss for us!"
The King of Jibei nodded: "What you said, strategist, is very reasonable!"
"Second, we don't need that much food at all!"
Mr. Zhuge cupped his hands and said: "My lord, the people below us are all cultivating the sunflower collection. After practicing, everyone can win a game. There is no need for so many soldiers and horses! There are not many soldiers and horses, so naturally we don't need so much food. We have enough food in our hands now, so why take the risk!"
The King of Jibei nodded again: "That's right!"
"Third, my lord, what we need more now is to develop secretly and accumulate strength!"
"We only have to endure for a few months. After everyone successfully cultivates the Sunflower Collection, the great cause will be caught by surprise! But once it is exposed, it will be targeted by the imperial court, which will be greatly detrimental to our plan!"
Mr. Zhuge said in a low voice: "Before, Tianmen was so exposed, which led to failure! Tianmen's sect master has been reduced from the master of a faction to a rat crossing the street, and his whole life's hard work has vanished! Lord, we must not repeat the same mistakes!"
The King of Jibei froze in his heart.
The matter of Tianmen's annihilation is still vivid in my eyes!
Such a powerful super sect, a sect that could threaten the imperial court, was killed by the imperial court just because the whole sect had practiced the swordsmanship of warding off evil spirits.
His subordinates are not practicing the swordsmanship of warding off evil spirits, but they are also a kind of evil art.
Once the situation is exposed, then his great career is over!
"Master, you are right, we must not repeat the same mistakes! It seems that this matter of grabbing food, don't pay attention!" The King of Jibei waved.
"My lord, in fact, it can still be reasonable!"
623 "Master, what do you mean?"
Mr. Zhuge lowered his head and said with a smile: "My lord, although we don't grab food, we can pretend to cooperate with the king of Jiangnan. Once we do, we will retreat and let the king of Jiangnan go grab food! In this way, the king of Jiangnan will inevitably lose his troops, but we Safe and sound! Your Majesty, are you satisfied with this plan?"
King Jibei's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and shouted, "Good strategy! This king likes it very much! Haha!"
The King of Jiangnan is his old enemy and a strong contender for his throne. If he can lose his troops and suffer a big loss, he is very happy and strongly supports it.
Mr. Zhuge continued to laugh and said: "My lord, we can also contact the champion of the capital... No, it should be called Lord Fu Yin now, and let him advise the court to prepare the court! In this way, the king of Jiangnan will inevitably be doomed. ,lost heavily!"
The King of Jibei laughed from ear to ear: "Not bad, not bad! Be sure to contact Lin Jun and ask him to advise the court and kill my good emperor brother, haha!"
Soon after, Lin Beifan received a letter from the King of Jibei.
After reading the secret letter, Lin Beifan smiled: "Murder with a knife?"
So, in the court, Lin Beifan reported the matter to the Empress.
"Your Majesty, there is currently a batch of grain shipped from Hulao Pass to the capital. The amount of grain is huge! Jiangnan is short of grain, and I suspect that the King of Jiangnan may take the risk and take the opportunity to loot! This matter has to be guarded against!"
The queen nodded: "Aiqing is right, this matter really has to be prevented! Where is the commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei?"
"I'm here!" The commander-in-chief stood up.
The Empress ordered: "Send someone to keep an eye on the movements of the Jiangnan Army, and report it as soon as there is a situation! When necessary, you can mobilize the local army to intercept it! There is also the northern direction of Hebei, and you can't relax!"
"The minister obeys the order!" The commander-in-chief of Jin Yiwei led the order.
"Your Majesty, don't be so troublesome! The minister has a plan, and he can make the King of Jiangnan lose his troops and lose his generals and money!" Lin Beifan smiled.
The Empress' eyes lit up: "Lin Aiqing, hurry up!".
