Chapter 92: Assassination
A few days later, on a sunny morning, the prince suddenly ordered the whole army to move to the village, and the place where the Youzhou army re-camped was on the side of the mountain. It is a little farther away from Ningguo than before.
None of the soldiers understood how the prince had set up camp here. This attack on Ningguo is farther, if the Ningguo army comes, there is water on one side, mountains on the other, the field is narrow, neither can attack, nor defend, very unsuitable as a battlefield.
Zhen Guogong came to ask the prince with doubts: "What is the plan of His Royal Highness to camp here?"
The prince nodded: "You just need to be optimistic about the army, and you don't need to be too alarmed if there is any accident." Everything is under my control. ”
Zhenguo Gong's heart calmed down, he promised the prince to be optimistic about the army, and then went out of the general's camp. On his way back to the camp, he met the British duke, who asked, "Why did the prince come here?"
Zhenguo Gong said expressionlessly: "I went to ask the prince just now, and he said that there is water here, which is suitable for camping. "Zhenguo Gong learned from the crown prince about the news delivered by the British prince and the eldest princess, and has been guarding against him.
The British Duke looked around and nodded: "It's good here, there are mountains and rivers." ”
At that time, the six shadow guards arrived at the camp of the army, and the shadow guards, who had exchanged news with the British Duke in the past, quietly entered the British Duke's tent with five people.
The shadow guard gave the eldest princess a wrong message, causing the eldest princess to be punished by His Majesty. The eldest princess wanted to kill the shadow guard and vented her anger, but her son persuaded her: "The shadow guard is worth a hundred, it's a pity to kill him, let him make meritorious contributions." ”
That shadow guard was indeed trying to make meritorious contributions later, he not only sent the news to the British public for the eldest princess, but also sent the news to Ning Guo.
The British Duke was awakened by several shadow guards, along with his son Wu Fenghua.
"Why did you arrive today, three days later than planned. The British rebuked.
The shadow guard who is often in contact with him is Shadow Seven, and he whispers, "I met a group of hungry wolves on the way, and it was not easy to kill them all. ”
Several other shadow guards stood at the door of the tent, sword in hand, vigilantly listening to the movement outside.
Kageqi asked, "What's the situation now, and when should I do it?"
The British government has detailed the arrangement: "Tonight is a good time. All the Black Guards have gone to explore the camp of the Ning Kingdom. After you kill the prince, go to Ningguo to deliver a letter and wait for their army to come. If the Zhou army has no commander, it will have no intention of fighting, and it will agree to reconcile the two countries. ”
Wu Fenghua was terrified when he heard every word his father said, assassinated the crown prince, and communicated with the enemy country. Everything his father did was to raid his family and exterminate his family. Wu Fenghua thought of the prince he respected, and thought of his mother in the British Mansion. He thought to himself, I don't want them to die.
The six shadow guards gently followed the British Duke out of the tent, and the British Duke stood at the door of the tent and pointed out to the shadow guards the tent where the prince was. He turned to see the shadow guards disappear into the darkness, so he turned back to the camp, Wu Fenghua got up and hit his father's head with a stick, and the British public fell to the ground in response.
Wu Fenghua ran towards the prince's tent, and he saw six people chasing and killing one person running towards the mountain. He followed closely with his sword, and he felt strange in his heart, the assassination was not small, and the guards did not notice it at all.
He didn't have time to think about it, and when he chased deep into the mountain, he only heard a loud sound, the sound of something falling off the cliff. Six men stood on the edge of the cliff and said, "He just struck me." "How could he have died if he fell from such a high mountain? "Let's go to Ningguo now to deliver the letter, and go back to Chang'an City directly." ”
The six shadow guards walked down the mountain. Wu Fenghua saw that the people had gone away, he came out from behind the stone and stood on the cliff, he couldn't see the bottom of the mountain by the faint starlight. He threw the sword in his hand and jumped off the cliff in a decisive way.
He only felt something on his body, and the person fainted.
The day sun picked him up from the tree and threw him into the cave. He said to the prince, who was sitting on the ground, "This boy is very faithful to his master, and when he saw that you fell off the cliff, he knew that he would die if he fell, but he still jumped down." ”
The crown prince nodded: "He is much stronger than his father." It's a teenage hero. ”
Bai Yue fed Wu Fenghua a pill in his mouth: "This is given to Bai Yue by the master, saying that it can cure knife wounds and falls." ”
The six shadow guards only saw the prince when they entered the prince's tent, and they chased and killed Bai Sun all the way later, and Bai Yue escorted the prince to the cave early.
The shadow guards were very strong, but they didn't know that they were not facing the crown prince, but two divine beasts that had cultivated for five thousand years. No matter how strong the kung fu of mortals is, it is useless in the face of the spells of the divine beasts.
After Wu Fenghua woke up, he opened his eyes and saw the prince sitting opposite, and he hurriedly got up.
The prince asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Wu Fenghua tried to get up and salute, but the prince waved his hand: "I'm alone with you here, so I don't need to be polite." ”
Wu Fenghua bowed his hand to the crown prince and said sadly: "Your Highness, last night's incident was done by your father and the eldest princess teaming up to send a shadow guard. His Highness was frightened, but fortunately nothing happened to him. ”
"You jumped off such a high cliff, not afraid of death?"
"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of Your Highness......" he cried. He went to the battlefield at a young age, and in the face of death, he was panicked and afraid, and he had to fight bravely to kill the enemy regardless of life and death. But none of this was worth the devastating blow of his father's collaborator and assassination of the crown prince.
Wu Fenghua thought that the British government was going to be wiped out by his father. He desperately killed the enemy and accumulated military merits, and now he is going to be burdened by his father and become a sinner. He was sad from the heart, and the more he cried, the more sad he became.
The prince comforted him: "Lone has released the news, the black guard will find here, and we will all be fine." ”
Wu Fenghua touched a handful of tears: "Let Your Highness laugh, I am a man and a soldier, I shouldn't cry like a girl." ”
The prince smiled: "Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, and it is normal to cry when frightened." ”
Wu Fenghua said listlessly: "My father has done such a thing, and it is inevitable that the British government will raid the family and exterminate the family. ”
The prince handed him a piece of cake, Wu Fenghua thanked him, took the cake and took a bite: "Your Highness also carries dry food with you. In the hurry, he even threw away the sword in his hand. ”
The two silently nibbled on the flatbread, Wu Fenghua looked around, and he looked outside the cave. They were halfway up a mountain range, surrounded by mountains, and they saw only a ray of light in the sky. The valley is quiet, with hundreds of birds contending and the occasional beast roaring.
Hearing the sound of a fierce beast coming from the hollow valley, Wu Fenghua touched his waist, and there was nothing on his waist. He regretted throwing away the sword in his hand, and he usually didn't carry any other weapons. What if a beast comes?
He really wanted something: a pale yellow spotted tiger appeared in front of him, and he strode to the front of the cave, with a pair of big eyes and a long tail wagging constantly.
Wu Fenghua's face turned blue with fright, he stood in front of the prince, trying to pretend to be calm: "Your Highness, protect you below." That being said, his trembling feet betrayed his panic.
The two little beasts hid to the side and covered their mouths and laughed. Bai Yue whispered, "Hehe, brother, he won't be scared out of illness." ”
"Hehe, test whether he will leave our master and run. ”
The tiger glanced at Wu Fenghua with contempt, and it sat down at the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, a hare ran by, and the tiger pounced on the hare at a speed like the wind, and in an instant it bit the hare's mouth.
The spotted tiger bit the rabbit and walked towards the hole, it threw down the rabbit, looked at Wu Fenghua with arrogant eyes, turned around and walked slowly towards the deep mountains with steady steps.
Wu Fenghua stared at the disappeared tiger, then looked at the rabbit at the entrance of the cave, and said stupidly: "Hey, the tiger is preying for us." ”
The prince smiled faintly, his eyes fixed on the two kittens hiding on the side.
