The night at the border pass was not peaceful, the grain and grass had just arrived, and a fire broke out that night, and everyone worked hard to put it out, and it was still burned clean.

"Why did this good military ration catch fire? How the hell are you two guarded? Ding Guogong said angrily.

"Grandpa Guo, my subordinates don't know either, we have been staring at this grain carefully, and I don't know why it caught fire." One of the tall soldiers knelt on the ground and said.

"Yes, Grandpa Guo, our brother is definitely not lazy, and I hope that Grandpa Guo will be clear." Another chubby soldier chimed in.

Dingguo looked at the two people in front of him steadily, these two people have also followed him for many years, and they are also very clear about the character of the two, but when the fire broke out just now, only the two of them were present, saying that they didn't do it, who would believe it.

The soldiers saw that the grain and grass were burned, where could they still have the confidence to fight, "Grandpa Guo, if there is no grain and grass, will it be difficult for the big guys to fight hungry?" When will the new grain and grass arrive? A soldier in the crowd shouted.

As soon as this statement came out, there were more echoes, and it followed. It was difficult for Dingguo Gong to answer these questions for a while.

This time, the grain and grass were specially sent by King Rui, and the next grain and grass did not know when it would be delivered. If there is no food, even if the soldiers are forced to fight, it will only be sent to death.

Just think about it, if a soldier is hungry and can't even stand firmly, how can he resist foreign enemies? When the time comes, there is no need to say that they are the people, and the people in the city will probably have no way to live.

Bei Liang is savage by nature, and if he captures a city, he may slaughter the city.

"You also need to worry too much, this grain and grass, you can take these of the king's first." King Rui said in a deep voice.

"Then what about the grain and grass on your side, Lord Wang? The battle in Tang Tingguan is even more fierce than here. Ding Guogong worried.

"Don't worry, when you leave Kyoto, the king has already asked the prince to help continue to raise grain and grass, and the prince will do it, so you can rest assured." Rui Wang said lightly.

The matter of grain and grass has been settled, and the mood of the soldiers on Dingguogong's side has also stabilized.

"Lord Wang, how could this grain and grass suddenly catch fire for no reason? There must be someone who eats inside and out, and those two guards are also suspicious. Ling Xiao said in a deep voice.

"If you were the guard, would you let the grain and grass have an accident in front of you?" Rui Wang said lightly.

"Naturally not, isn't that easy for others to suspect me?" Ling Xiao wondered.

"If you know, they know it."

"Master, your words are really getting more and more unfathomable." Ling Xiao scratched his head and said.

"You kid, you look like a very smart person on weekdays, why are you confused now? You think, since they are guarding the grain and grass. So how could they let the grain and grass have an accident, if there is a problem, it must be the first to be suspected. Jiang Xiao said for a long time on the side.

"Well, that's true, but maybe they did it on purpose to make us less suspicious of them?" Ling Xiao said lightly.

"No, there is another reason for the fire of grain and grass, the fire of grain and grass is because there is white phosphorus, someone sprinkled white phosphorus on the grain and grass, and at night, torches will be lit in the camp, and the ignition point of white phosphorus is very low, and it will naturally be caused by torches

Fire. King Rui said lightly.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that the prince had already sent someone to find out, but this matter of grain and grass, would the prince decide a little suddenly?

If it was true that all the remaining grain and grass were left to Dingguo Gong, then what would the soldiers of Tang Tingguan do? Will those soldiers who follow think quickly?

The prince has just reasserted his power, and if something goes wrong at this time, maybe something else will happen.

"Master, then you already know it, just tell your subordinates to do things." Ling Xiao rubbed his hands.

"Come with your ears and do as the king tells you." King Rui said in a deep voice.

According to King Rui's instructions, Ling Xiao quickly caught the inner ghost hiding in the barracks.

"Wang Erqu, in front of the prince, you still don't admit your guilt?" Zhan Tianlin said angrily.

"General, the little one didn't do anything, you can't push the little one out to die in order to shirk responsibility." Wang Erqu said hurriedly.

"Wronged? Will our prince wronged you? Isn't it clear that you've done it yourself or not? Ling Xiao looked at Wang Erqu with disdain.

"You just think I'm a bully and want me to take the blame. Anyway, who made you all nobles, and I am lowly. Wang Erqu cried.

The other soldiers who were watching were also talking about it at this time, this Wang Erqu has always been a simple guy, how dare he set fire to less grain and grass? This kind of thing can't be done by someone like him at all.

"Wang Erqu, since you said that this king has wronged you, then it's okay, this king will let you die with your heart." After finishing speaking, King Rui waved his hand, and Mo Feng stepped forward to suppress Wang Erqu, and searched for a small medicine bag from the square towel he had wrapped in his hair.

Seeing this, Wang Erqu immediately collapsed on the ground, how could he be easily discovered if he hid it so carefully?

Now that he has been discovered, what is he going to do? Yes, crying that he was forced, as long as he was not voluntary, then according to the character of Dingguo Gong, he might have spared his life.

Thinking of this, Wang Erqu made up his mind and knelt on the ground, and shot his face left and right.

The few people in front of him all looked at him coldly, and they didn't intend to stop him.

Wang Erqu is also a little difficult to ride a tiger at this time, if no one stops him, will he continue to fight like this?

If he wants to continue fighting, then his face is unnecessary, and it seems that he will have to find another way.

Thinking of this, Wang Erqu stopped the movements in his hand and walked on his knees in front of Dingguo Gong, "Grandpa Guo, you know me, my old lady is still sick, and I have a young son, my daughter-in-law always dislikes me for having no ability and not making money, I do this, it is also forced to be helpless." ”

"If you are forced to be helpless, can you burn the grain and grass? Do you know that it was half a year's worth of grain and grass for the whole army, and you were forced to burn it down. Zhan Tianhong said angrily. Immediately, he kicked Wang Erqu to the ground.

"You're just a firehead, where did you get so much white phosphorus? You must know that the high price of white phosphorus has always been used by dignitaries. King Rui said coldly.

"Lord Wang, it's just a little bit, and the other party gave it to me." Wang Erqu continued to lie.

As long as he says nothing and refuses to admit it, as long as there is no evidence, this Dingguo Gong is fine, King Rui

Anyway, they won't kill themselves easily, if they kill themselves indiscriminately, then how can they stand in the army in the future.

"Huh, just a little? Wang Erqu, do you know that the price of white phosphorus is in gold, even if it is a rich family, it will not be used in ordinary times. ”

"Lord Wang, what you said made the little one understand, you just said that this white phosphorus is only used by dignitaries, why do you say it again now, you don't usually use it?" Wang Erqu knelt down straight and said.

"It's very simple, this white phosphorus has always been used in tombs, most of them are for anti-theft, when you sprinkle white phosphorus out, you accidentally got on your body, look at the holes in your own clothes, isn't it clear?" Rui Wang said coldly.

Hearing this, Wang Erqu looked down at the hole in his clothes, and sure enough, it was this hole that exposed himself. So how did he know that he had hidden the rest of the white phosphorus in his hair?

"The prince is really a good means, he can see the flaw so easily, the little one is really a little curious, how does the prince know that the remaining white phosphorus is in my hair?" Wang Erqu sneered.

"It's very simple, your own hair is always wrapped in a square scarf, and the square scarf you use has a very good shading effect, if you want to hide something from being found, then there is nothing wrong with hiding it in your hair. What's more, when searching things, most people don't pay attention to their hair, after all, the body is the parent who is affected by the skin. ”

"Hehehe, I really have to applaud the prince, it is really a blessing for the Great Zhou to have a talent like the prince. It's just that my grain and grass have been burned by me, and without food, you should not think that you can win this battle. Wang Erqu said proudly.

"Tell the king who you really are, and if there are any of your companions in this camp, and the king may spare your life." Rui Wang said coldly.

"Hahaha...... what a big joke, are you joking with the little one again? Tell you about my companions? It is impossible to betray my companions, but my name can tell you, my name is Tu Guang, and I am from Beiliang. I can make such a contribution to my Beiliang, and it is not in vain for this life. After finishing speaking, Tu Guang laughed loudly.

"Tu Guang, very good. This king knew that you were the right-hand man by Dugu Che's side, but he didn't expect you to be able to sneak into the military camp of the Great Zhou. King Rui said lightly.

"The prince has won the award, but I acted in a play for the country, but I didn't expect him to believe it. If you let the emperor of the Great Zhou know, I don't know if you will blame him? Tu Guang said triumphantly.

Now, there is no need for his identity to continue to hide, and naturally he will not be kneeling.

"Tu Guang, do you really think your plan will succeed?" Rui Wang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Of course, I personally caused the fire, so why did the prince up?" Tu Guang said with disdain.

Such methods are all ordinary methods, Tu Guang has followed Dugu Che for many years, how could he be frightened by such a few words?

"Tu Guang, you only know that after the grain and grass are burned, it will spread rapidly, but the soldiers of the whole army are fighting the fire as before, at least they should be able to keep some grain and grass, why are they burned clean?" King Rui is so tidy.

Hearing this, Tu Guang also put away the smile on his face, looked at King Rui with wide eyes in disbelief, and pointed to the grain and grass with trembling hands and said, "You did it right?" ”
