It wasn't until the voice echoed for an unknown amount of time that Dong Ping raised his head.

Looking ahead with deep eyes, Dong Ping looked at the mottled bluestone bricks on the wall, the look in his eyes was complicated, no one knew what he was thinking.

Cai Xukun frowned, he stretched his hand behind his back faintly, but on the surface, he looked at Dong Ping with a smile.

Finally, Dong Ping still stood up.

"What, Your Highness, have you already thought about it?"

Cai Xukun sneered in his heart, but still said with a smile: "You can rest assured, I can guarantee with my life, and I have absolutely not wronged anyone."

"Okay, I'll make my own decision on this matter."

Dropping this sentence, Dong Ping held his head high, put his hands behind his back, and strode towards the exit of the secret room.

Staring at Dong Ping's defenseless back when he was opening the mechanism, Cai Xukun was struggling violently in his heart and making a choice.

The sweat on his forehead dripped to the ground, and he gritted his teeth desperately, and finally put down the hand holding the Condor crossbow behind his back.

Reluctantly smiled, he still followed Dong Ping out of the secret room together.

At this time, Dong Ping, looking at Shi Xiu, who was panting, frowned slightly, and was silent for a long time, but still spoke.

"I already know these things, I ask you now, how are the border guards deployed by Liu Yun and Chai Jin in Gaotang Prefecture."

"Big brother, this incident is indeed too sudden, I admit that it is the secret guard's intelligence dereliction of duty."

Shi Xiu sighed slightly, but his tone became serious and said: "They are all ready to deploy and can go to war at any time, in short, the question now is whether this time the question is the will of Song Guo, or the meaning of him Cai Jing alone."

"Do you want to say that Cai Jing wants to avenge his daughter?"

Dong Ping clasped his hands in front of his chest, held his head in his right hand and thought for a moment, but still said with a solemn face: "However, Shi Xiu, you seem to have fallen into the wrong thinking."

"Huh?" Shi Xiu's brows furrowed, and her face was a little heavy.

"Now is not the time to think about this, the problem is that the opponents are all elites, and the most important thing is ......," Dong Ping said, his eyes completely sank.

"I said that you can't start an all-out war with Zhao Ji now."

Dong Ping's indifferent tone made Shi Xiu feel a huge pressure.

"Big brother, what do you mean...... Use the fastest speed to destroy Cai Jing's gang without affecting other local forces?" Shi Xiu led everyone to sit at a table, pulled out a few chairs and sat down at random, and said in an indifferent tone.

"Yes, this time, when Cai Jing is killed, I will go and talk to Zhao Ji." Dong Ping put his hands on the table and just sneered: "If it is really instructed by him this time, although I will not start a war, but it is still within my ability to let him return to the underworld."

Shi Xiu swallowed his saliva, although Dong Ping's words were extremely indifferent, he could feel an invisible pressure.

"By the way, how many of them are?" Dong Ping looked at Shi Xiu in front of him, and Cai Xukun who was standing aside, and said with a solemn face.

"The actions of the officers and soldiers this time are not simple." Shi Xiu's eyes were gloomy, and he said in a low tone: "Our secret guards have sacrificed a lot, and we can only barely find out that their people are likely to be more than Wen Huanzhang's men and horses last time."

"Moreover, these people are second only to the elite of the Western Army, and they are by no means comparable to the previous van soldiers!" Shi Xiu said, his tone becoming more and more excited.

However, after listening to him for so long, Dong Ping just smiled and waved his hand.

"Okay, I already know, I'm here today, it's not too early, you go and rest."

Standing up slowly, Dong Ping put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker and walked out of the house.

Looking at the endless night, Dong Ping smiled casually, and said without looking back: "Remember to inform Chai Jin, let him closely monitor Cai Jing's movements, and if there is a problem, immediately fly the pigeon to send a message to inform!"

"Yes!"

Shi Xiu's voice followed his thunderous speed, but in an instant, it had already dissipated into the night sky.

At this time, Cai Xukun walked over from the side, looked at Dong Ping and was silent for a moment, he still said: "Your Highness, although you are presumptuous, do you want to let Liu Yun go?"

Dong Ping didn't rush to reply, he just held his head high and looked at the night of the dome.

The sky is cloudy, the night is full, and from time to time a hot wind hangs up, which makes people feel a little hot.

"In the face of a person who values your life more than your own, do you have no trust in him?"

"His Royal Highness King Qi, what do you mean by this?" Cai Xukun frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Nothing." Dong Ping smiled casually, but suddenly turned to look at him, and his tone became serious: "I'll let you go to Gaotang now and serve as the commander of the soldiers and horses, you tell me, maybe it?!"

"This ......"

Cai Xukun was stunned for a moment, knelt down on his knees in shock, and said excitedly: "King Qi, you have no merit in your subordinates, you are young, your ability is shallow, how can you take on this great responsibility?"

"No, you have the ability."

Under Cai Xukun's blank gaze, Dong Ping directly pulled him up, smiled and said, "I just need to know if you are willing to take on this task."

"This ...... If you can, your subordinates want to do things by your side. Cai Xukun looked calm, clasped his hands into fists and said.

"I have made up my mind, with your ability, the defense of the border is inseparable from you." Dong Ping laughed and patted Cai Xukun's right shoulder, and said in a calm tone: "Needless to say, in a few years, I will promote you to the center of the capital Dongping."

When it came to this, Cai Xukun really couldn't say anything, he had to thank him a thousand times, and then left.

However, before leaving, he looked at Dong Ping's back, but secretly cursed in his heart.

He naturally didn't expect that Dong Ping also sneered in his heart.

Seeing that this person's back completely disappeared into the night, Dong Ping moved his whole body, and then stood firm and looked at the night around him with a cold face.

It didn't take long for Dong Ping to take a step forward and walk towards the center of the city.

He wanted to be alone and quiet.

This Cai Xukun, he definitely has a problem.

Eighty percent is to get some information from himself.

Looking at his expression just now, he was reluctant to be transferred to other places, and just wanted to stay in Dongping.

Combined with the previous changes in this person, Dong Ping has already begun to suspect that this person is very likely to be an undercover agent!

However, it is not appropriate to startle the snake now, and Dong Ping is ready to fish out greater benefits from him.

"Casting a long line and catching big fish is my favorite." Dong Ping smiled and said to himself.

Of course, I don't have time to care about him now, the war with Cai Jing, and the follow-up impact and development of this time, that is the most important thing.

As for Liu Yun's matter, as well as the secret letter, Dong Ping chose to believe him, and forgot about these things for the time being, and when he was done with what was in front of him, he would judge with everyone.

Thinking of this, Dong Ping felt a little headache again.

As for that Cai Xukun......

No matter what, as long as Chai Jin is allowed to stabilize this Cai Xukun now, nothing will happen to him.

Dong Ping believes in Chai Jin's ability, and there is no problem in dealing with this Cai Xukun.

Thinking so, Dong Ping raised his head and realized that he had already passed through the center of the city.

Now, we have reached a large pond near the old governor's palace.

Well, it's actually here?

Also, now that it's at least three watches in the sky, I can't sleep with such a big military situation, so it's better to go shopping and talk to someone.

Dong Ping's brows furrowed, and then he stretched out again, since this is the case, just go and talk to the master to see if he has any good suggestions for Cai Jing's actions this time.

To be honest, Dong Ping was very puzzled by Cai Jing's behavior this time.

Wen Huanzhang was defeated so badly last time, almost the whole army was wiped out, this Cai Jing, now that the Qi State is thriving and becoming more and more powerful, does he still want to rely on his little people to use his mantis arm as a car?

What to say, this man......

It makes sense to say that he came to avenge his daughter and son-in-law.

After all, Miss Cai has now been married to Wu Song, and in the eyes of outsiders, they all think she is dead.

Moreover, it has been more than half a year since he hit the Daimyo's Mansion, and it is impossible to hide it all the time, Cai Jing and Gao Yu's gang will find out sooner or later.

Hehe, Cai Jing, it's good that you are a qualified father, but if you want to find death yourself, then don't blame me.

With a sneer in his heart, Dong Ping quickened his pace, preparing to leave the pond first.

Unexpectedly, a person suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

"Well, Master...... Is that you?"

Dong Ping's eyes shook suddenly, and he was stunned for a while before he smiled awkwardly: "What's the matter, old man, you're still walking here so late."

"The apprentice is so uncompetitive, if I go idle again, how can you, the king of Qi, still be the king?" Zhou Tong stood there with a calm face, but his words seemed to have complex meanings.

"Master, what do you want to say?" Dong Ping frowned, and his expression became serious.

"This time for such a big thing, you can still hang out like this, do you still have a responsibility in your heart?" Zhou Tong said in a low tone: "I don't care about anything else, you should know the consequences of the last shadow attack, right?"

"And, if the old man guessed correctly, you should have been attacked there."

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from Master." Dong Ping said with a solemn expression: "I came this time to ask you, how should I fight this battle?"

Zhou Tong had a calm face, and after half a day, he didn't speak.

And Dong Ping didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to stand there and wait for the master to speak.

A gust of night wind blows, making people feel more and more irritable.

Finally, Zhou Tong still spoke.

"You still have to ask your own heart about this."

After speaking, Zhou Tong flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

When Dong Ping raised his head to look at him, the figure of the master had already disappeared into the vast night.

The blankness in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by firmness and confidence, and for another moment, Dong Ping just smiled and looked at the pond not far away, and straightened the collar of his trench coat

Then, he clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it in front of him.

"Ask my own ...... Inside? ”

Three days later, outside the city of Caozhou.

Today, it is clear that this place will be extraordinary.

It's just because there are too many elite forces gathered here.

Outside the city, Dianjiangtai.

Hua Rong was dressed in meteoric iron armor, standing at the top of the platform, with his hands behind his back, with a solemn expression.

Seeing that the army below was gathering one after another, like a sky full of stars, crowding the entire outside of the city, and even the nearby forest, he just sneered.

These are the elite of the country.

It is not too much to say that it is the strongest combat force in addition to the Western Army, and it is not too much to say that it is the elite of a hundred battles who fight against bandits and local separatists against the king all year round.

Brother Gongming, my brother has been undercover for many years this time, and he didn't do it in vain!

Hua Rong looked at everything in front of him, and the elite soldiers under his command who were fully armed, only felt a trace of sourness in his heart.

After so many years and being undercover for so long, I finally won the trust of the high thief.

Moreover, in this battle, he can also go out with Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo.

However, these are not the most important things.

In short, years of forbearance will completely break out on this day!

Soon, it's time for you to die, thief.

Hua Rong sneered, you will never know that on the day you and Wu killed Brother Gongming with poisonous wine, an avenger in the shadows had already put your name in the book.

Today, it is time for you to pay for your lives!

Thinking of this, Hua Rong just smiled secretly, when the army arrives, see how I can bury your elite, Gao Yu.

"Report to the capital supervisor, acting Lord Taishouhua, 50,000 soldiers and horses in Caozhou, has been deployed, and the 3,000 pioneers of the Sanzhou Forbidden Army led by Scholar Wu have arrived under the leadership of General Zhou Ang, and are now stationed outside the city!"

"Okay, you guys are camped here for the time being, you are not allowed to enter the city, and you will act after I tell you to, remember, it's everyone!"

Hua Rong said, then waved the meteorite mountain and sea spear in his hand, and slammed it into the wooden board of the high platform.

Afterwards, he did not speak, but sat down on the chair on the stage, closing his eyes and resting.

When the forbidden soldiers below and Zhou Ang heard this, they wanted to scold their mother.

Aren't you just because Liangshan was stopped outside the city by Tong Guan after fighting the Taiyuan Liao Army, and now you have the power to take revenge?

Scolding and scolding, before Wu Yong came, he Hua Rong, the deputy of the coalition army, was the supreme commander who was currently present, and none of them could do anything to Hua Rong.

Moreover, Hua Rong's magic arrow is not for fun.

Thinking of the right arm that was shot by Hua Rong during the last martial arts competition, Zhou Ang only felt a faint pain.

That kid, what did he say about being injured by mistake, didn't he just want to avenge Song Jiang!

Hehe, Hua Rong, since you are so arrogant, then I can't blame you.

Thinking so, Zhou Ang raised his head and looked at Hua Rong on the stage in the distance, and just sneered, when there was something unexpected in the melee, I can't guarantee that you Hua Rong is all personally safe!

After thinking for a while, Zhou Ang simply called a few personal soldiers and prepared to explain some things to them.

However, Zhou Ang was about to speak, but was interrupted by a high-pitched shout.

"Report, General Guan Changsheng, General Huyan Demou led the Xuanzhou soldiers, and the Xuzhou soldiers were 50,000 each, which is less than ten miles away!"
