The copper-headed king sat on the throne, the military advisor sat on one side, and the eight King Kongs sat on both sides of the hall, and they were discussing strategies to deal with Zhang Lei early in the morning.

The copper-headed king sighed: "So many people give gifts to Zhang Lei, I am angry, this shows that many people want to leave a way back for themselves." ”

The military advisor nodded and said, "It is possible for others to come and be killed by our people, but Zhang Lei comes, and no one dares to touch him." Zhang Lei's prestige is too high, and the Japanese are not his opponents, how can we possibly fight him? He represents the government, and he has in his hands a large army that can make the Japanese fearful, we are not Taiwan here, the island is small, and it is close to the mainland, and the brothers have relatives and friends on land, and their roots are not on the island, but on the land. Some brothers, wives and children are on land, and they refuse to fall out with the mainland. ”

The copper-headed king stroked his beard and whispered: "If this continues, people's hearts will be chaotic, and it is possible that I will be blacked out by my brother!" ”

The military advisor whispered, "To be honest, I don't know what to do. Move somewhere else, right? Brothers may not be willing, let's do it with Zhang Lei on the island! We may have the upper hand now, but after a long time, we will definitely not be able to defeat Zhang Lei's army when he arrives. ”

The copper-headed king sneered and asked, "Can't the Japanese in Zhoushan help?" It's really not good, can't we move the direction of Ningde? ”

The military advisor sighed and said: "The Japanese fought in the Pacific and the United States, and although the Japanese in Nanyang had the upper hand, I think the Japanese only temporarily gained an advantage, and if the battle is so big, it will lose sooner or later." Fuzhou last time the Japanese and ** had a sea battle, ** although defeated, but the Japanese suffered great losses, now Fuzhou is controlled by **, Zhang Lei has an army on the shore to attack in the direction of Ningde, Ningde direction land sooner or later will also be Zhang Lei's control area. ”

An officer said loudly: "Strategist, you weren't like this in the past, why don't you have any guts now?" Was he frightened by Zhang Lei? Zhang Lei's army is indeed strong, on land, the Japanese often suffer great losses, but at sea, they have such a powerful navy, no matter how strong Zhang Lei's army is, it will fight again, what can we do? We don't go anywhere, we just stay here and don't change forever. ”

Another officer shouted, "Kill Zhang Lei!" ”

The copper-headed king was shocked and said: "If you kill Zhang Lei, you will offend the government of the Republic of China!" Zhang Lei is in a high position, how could they let us go? ”

The officer shouted, "If you don't kill Zhang Lei, Zhang Lei will kill you." Zhang Lei made it very clear that he wanted to bring us under the jurisdiction of Wenzhou. Would you like to? None of the brothers will agree. ”

The other officers shouted: "Kill Zhang Lei, and simply tear your face with the government." ”

The Copperhead King looked at the military advisor and asked in a low voice, "What should I do?" Eight King Kongs, it seems that I don't want to let Zhang Lei go back to land. ”

The military advisor sighed heavily and said, "That's it! Kill Zhang Lei, prepare for a big battle, and when we can't beat the **, we will turn to the Japanese for help, and if the Japanese can't be trusted, we will move to Nanyang District with our treasures. ”

The copper-headed king nodded and said, "There are very large islands in the South Seas, and if we occupy a large island, we can establish a country." ”

The military advisor nodded and said, "Yes!" With the treasures we have, and the strength of our army, there should be no problem in building a country. ”

An officer said loudly: "In that case, when are we going to kill Zhang Lei?" We must cut through the mess quickly, and we must make decisions immediately. Copperhead King, you have to make up your mind! ”

The Copperhead King pondered, and everyone looked at him with bated breath, and after a long time, the Copperhead King raised his head, gritted his teeth, and said, "I will ask everyone to drink with him in the evening, so as to paralyze him, and kill him secretly in the middle of the night." As for what to do in the future, we will discuss it together. ”

Zhang Lei dressed up as a one-eyed dragon, came to the meeting room of the copper-headed king, and saw a girl carrying a kettle and wanted to go in to refill the water for the copper-headed king and the eight kings, so he asked for the kettle, and poured a sufficient amount of cyanide into it in the name of checking the kettle, and then returned the kettle to the girl.

Zhang Lei, with the assistance of Wang Yueying, quickly took off his clothes disguised as a one-eyed dragon, put on his own clothes, and took off the blindfold.

After Zhang Lei sat down, Wang Yueying asked in a low voice, "It's not exposed, right?" ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said, "Who am I?" People will only see the one-eyed dragon and will never know that I have been. ”

Wang Yueying said: "Someone is watching us! ”

Zhang Lei smiled and said: "A total of three people watched us, and they all avoided it. ”

Lynch said, "In this way, the copperhead king is also very likely to be poisoned." ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said: "I can't care so much, I hope the copper-headed king doesn't drink water, if he does, he will definitely die." ”

Wang Yueying asked in a low voice, "Where did you get it from?" ”

Zhang Lei said: "In the café opened by the French on the Bund in Shanghai, Nanzao Yunzi used it to poison Murakami Semei, and I poured coffee into Nanzao Yunzi's mouth and poisoned Nanzao Yunzi as well." Later, I found it from Nanzo Yunzi's bag, and the margin was so large that it was a piece of cake to poison a hundred people, and I kept it in my pocket, and this time it finally came in handy. ”

Wang Yueying said: "I didn't expect that you are more military than the military commander." ”

Zhang Lei patted Wang Yueying's face and whispered: "The military commander's methods are extremely evil, and all the methods I use are serious. Go and wake up the shooting moon, and there will be chaos at the copperhead king. I went outside the door to see if it was raining, so that the people who were watching me could see that I had never left the place. ”

The copper-headed king sat on the throne and watched the girl refill the water for the Eight King Kongs, so he stopped talking, in case the girl heard it, and leaked the plan to murder Zhang Lei.

The Eight King Kongs said for a while, they were very thirsty, and after the water was refilled, everyone picked up their teacups and drank water.

Everyone's teacups slipped out of their hands, pointing at the copper-headed king and trembling: "You! You! "Seven thieves bleed, and fell down.

The military advisor stood up tremblingly from his chair, went over to check on an officer, touched his nose, looked up at the copper-headed king, and said in a trembling voice: "The copper-headed king, did you order them to be poisoned?" ”

The Copperhead King jumped up from his throne and shouted, "What? They are my right-hand men, how could I order them to be poisoned? ”

The military advisor shook his head and sighed heavily, "Quick! Fast! Quickly issue an order to take control of the palace in case the army rebels. ”

The storm outside the palace, the sword and sword shadow in the palace.

The Copperhead King's hundred-man guard marched into the palace from the camp.

The copperhead king circled around like a headless fly in the study of the palace, and the military advisors followed behind the copperhead king.

The military advisor said: "An order must be given, all troops are not allowed to leave the barracks for half a step, and those who violate it will be killed!" ”

The Copperhead King nodded and said, "Yes! Hurry up and give the order! No army is allowed to leave the barracks, and no ships are allowed to go to sea. Order all the officers to enter the palace and let the guards control them, and order all the civil officials to enter the palace and discuss countermeasures. ”

On the throne of the main hall, the copper-headed king was sitting, and the civil officials standing in the hall said loudly: "The eight King Kongs are in the palace, all of them have been poisoned, and now the situation is extremely critical, please come, the purpose is to discuss countermeasures." ”

The civil officials, who were drenched and drenched in soup, heard that the Eight King Kongs had been poisoned by all of them in the palace, and they were all in a mess. Is this still worth it? The Eight King Kongs are the most important officers on the island, and as soon as they die, the army will not be able to fight.

One official asked, "Where was he poisoned?" ”

The military advisor said loudly: "The Copperhead King and I were discussing work with the Eight King Kongs, and the Eight King Kongs suddenly fell to the ground and died. The cause of death is under investigation, but it has not yet been investigated because there are many clues. ”

The civil servants were in an uproar, and one of them asked loudly, "Why are you still alive?" ”

The military advisor was stunned, yes! How am I still alive? Having no excuse.

The Copperhead King whispered, "You have to believe me, the Eight King Kongs are my ministers and the pillars of our island, how could I kill them?" Someone must have secretly poisoned it! ”

There was a lot of discussion among the civil servants.

The officers, not knowing what was happening, rushed from all over the place outside the palace of the copperhead king, gathered together, climbed the steps in the pouring rain, and entered the palace. At the gate of the palace, the weapons were confiscated by the guards and led to the large room on one side.

Hundreds of officers gathered in one room, all of them could not understand what was happening, and asked each other, but no one knew what was going on.

This kind of thing has never happened, and after thinking about it, some people became frightened and said loudly: "Is it possible that the copperhead king wants to kill us all and surrender to the Japanese?" ”

Yes?!

When several officers heard this, they screamed.

Panic breeds from this!

The chatter in the room grew louder and louder.

A few tried to break open the door.

Zhang Lei stayed in the courtyard and entered a group of guards, standing at the gate of the courtyard with a gun on his back. The wind and rain were blowing on them, and they shivered with cold.

Zhang Lei sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, looked at Lynch, Wang Yueying, and Shooting the Moon, and said with a low laugh: "We don't have to go out to inquire, there will definitely be officials coming to the door later." The situation changes suddenly, and there will inevitably be officials who will find another way out. ”

Wang Yueying said that the guards would find out!

Zhang Lei waved his hand and said, "The guards will not forbid them to visit me. ”

Sure enough, as Zhang Lei expected, two officials came to visit in the evening in the rain.

Zhang Lei invited them to sit down, and after listening to them explain the situation, he sighed heavily and said: "If the copperhead king wants to surrender to the Japanese, he doesn't need to kill his brother who died for him!" What's not to say? ”

Zhang Lei's words were to guide these two officials, and these two officials became indignant when they heard this.

Zhang Lei continued to sigh and said: "I may also be poisoned, alas! Who would have thought that the Copperhead King was such a person? ”

One official said, "That's right! If he wants to surrender to the Japanese, you are the biggest obstacle, you are too dangerous. We hurry up and breathe, we must protect you. ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said, "Yes!" My life is protected by you. Whoever protects me has merit, when you go to the mainland, I will be rewarded, and those who participate in protecting me will become heroes. ”

Zhang Lei's words have a deep meaning, ordinary people may think that Zhang Lei is afraid! Such a big hero would say such soft words. In fact, Zhang Lei is testing the attitude of pirate officials towards Zhang Lei, which is of great significance to Zhang Lei's next action.

After the two officials left, Zhang Lei said to Lynch: "Inform Zhou Yong immediately, and prepare to control the Tongtou Palace after dark." ”

Lynch exclaimed, "Yes! ”

Wang Yueying said, "Wait a minute, I'll go get a walkie-talkie." ”
