Now the emperor is in the prime of life, has many sons, and has not set up a crown prince. Therefore, as the eldest son, Fusu will receive special attention from some eyes.

Of course, these attention is not a good thing, as long as Fusu makes the slightest mistake, people with ulterior motives will magnify it thousands of times and spread it to the emperor's ears and eyes. Over time, Fusu's position in the emperor's mind will not be guaranteed.

Fusu didn't want to see this, which might mean that he would lose to the rest of his brothers, but he had seventeen brothers, the eldest of whom was only a few months younger than him, and the youngest was only ten years old. But the background of these brothers is not bad, and their matrilineal strength can make the emperor pay attention to it, and they are strong competitors for Fusu.

The high cliff protrudes outward, and from standing on it, you can see the entire valley. It stands to reason that such a critical place should be heavily guarded, and one or two sentries should be arranged here at the worst.

But after carefully climbing up all the way, Chen Sheng found that there was no half a figure in this place. Chen Sheng was greatly surprised, this group of people was too arrogant, and they acted so carelessly.

However, Chen Sheng was also secretly lucky in his heart, thanks to the fact that there was no figure on this cliff, if there were sentinels, he would have to work hard to clear them, and he could not guarantee 100% that he would be able to attack and kill the other party without showing a trace.

The mountain wind on the cliff is cold, like a knife blade blowing on a person's face, making people feel faintly painful. Chen Sheng exhaled a cloud of white mist, pointed to the bottom of the cliff and said, "Childe, you see, this is the transit station they have established. ”

The two guards stopped Fusu on the edge of the cliff, preventing Fusu from getting too close to the edge of the cliff, which was about thirty zhang high. However, Fusu's vision is enough to take in everything below.

The cliff is lit up underneath.

On both sides of the valley below, the outside is fenced off like a cottage; There were many simple tents made of wood, and on the clearing in front of the valley, things were piled up like hills, covered with dense tarpaulin, and compacted with stones, and these were the grains that had not yet been transferred. The figures walked around, apparently heavily guarded. Moreover, from the topography, if you want to enter this valley, you can only walk along the river bay towards the place where the patrol departed, but the people are heavily guarded, and they cannot get into it at all, even if they are attacked, they may not be able to enter it safely for a while.

Moreover, these people are close to the river bay, and there are dozens of boats moored in the river, and once they find something wrong, they can quickly transfer the people inside to the boat and quickly escape from here.

The matter was moored on the ships on the bay and the lights were on. Some of the ships had a deep draft, and the matter had already driven out of the river, while others were near the banks, and there were many people on the ground carrying bulging sacks of burlap and shouting low trumpets, and carrying the goods on their shoulders to the deck with heavy steps, and on the deck, some people carried the goods to the cabin. From the high cliff, it looks like a dense swarm of ants are moving. The goods they carried seemed to be food.

Seeing this scene, Fusu let out a breath of turbidity, although the matter has not been resolved here, at least he has found an enemy stronghold, which is already a great feat. He didn't want to startle the snake. Now that this den of thieves has been discovered, it will be much easier to do next. Fusu was cautious by nature, and he heard that there were a lot of thieves in this valley, and with the more than ten people he had on hand, he would never do anything reckless. So he wanted to wait for Meng Yi to lead the Praetorian Guards over, and then attack inside and capture a bunch of thieves.

Chen Sheng's face suddenly wrinkled slightly. Because he saw more than a dozen carts neatly arranged under the valley, and he recognized them. This is the vehicle in the Ling family's convoy. How did they end up here? Thinking of the cold little beauty of the Ling family, Chen Sheng's chest was slightly hot. But after a few moments, he came back to his senses and thought about the question. In fact, it is not difficult to explain the appearance of the Ling family's caravan here, that is, they have a great deal to do with the matter of rushing to buy the grain and grass stored in the empire this time, and they may be regarded as one of the masterminds.

Chen Sheng was a little puzzled by this. As a businessman, how could the Ling family be involved in such a complex political incident. Could it be that the Ling family is still not satisfied with the status of the rich side and wants to tear the soil and seal the marquis?

Chen Sheng is also difficult to judge his own thoughts. Human greed has always been bold and crazy. Only when driven by sufficient interests, there is nothing that people dare not do.

Chen Sheng smiled bitterly and said to Fusu: "Childe, I'll go down to observe the situation and see what the strength of those people below is, you can notify Lord Meng as soon as possible and let him lead the army over." After a pause, Fusu added: "It's best to have a sailor to intercept this group of thieves in the lower reaches of the river, and if not, set up a barrier in the narrow place below the river as soon as possible to wipe out these guys!" ”

"What?" Fusu raised his eyebrows and said puzzledly, "Why do you go down?" "The height of this cliff is enough for the faint of heart to frighten half to death when looking down from above. How could Chen Sheng go down. However, Chen Sheng's other proposals, Fusu agreed very much, and immediately waved his hand, and a well-behaved Praetorian Guard behind him rushed down the mountain to report the news to Lord Meng Yi as quickly as possible.

"It's easy." Chen Sheng smiled indifferently, untied a burden that he had been carrying with him, and a large bundle of ropes was revealed. Obviously, setting out, Chen Sheng had already expected to use these things.

In addition to the rope, other things in the baggage made Fusu feel very fresh, in a cowhide wallet, there were more than a dozen knives and pliers of different shapes neatly arranged, Fusu had never seen such exquisite knives, these were all things that Chen Sheng made his own molds and let the blacksmiths concentrate on casting. Fusu naturally didn't know that this set of instruments was used for surgery.

Fusu couldn't help asking, "What are these knives for?" In addition to the knives, Fusu saw that the package contained a three-edged blade about two feet long, wrapped in thick cowhide, a very beautifully crafted small bow and a dozen or so short arrows.

Seeing the three-edged blade, the faces of Hu Huiyong and the other guards beside Fusu changed slightly, they were all hob meat that had been rolling in the blade for many years, and they naturally understood the trauma that this strange weapon could bring to people. If you are stabbed into the body by this three-edged blade, you will be wounded on three sides, which is extremely difficult to heal, and it can bleed the opponent in a very short time, causing very serious damage.

But the guards also knew very well that such a strange weapon was very difficult to forge, and the intentions of those who could design such blades were also very vicious......

But for such a little gadget of himself, Chen Sheng felt very cold. The triangular blade on his body has an official name, called the military stinger, which is a regular weapon in the special forces he was in the previous life, and the shape is even more evil. There are more matching weapons and better functions. The same is true of the bow and crossbow, which are all conventional weapons of the special forces, and he just asks craftsmen to forge them according to what he has seen.

However, it is not easy to create such two things, the old blacksmith who is over seventy years old has perfected his skills, and it has failed more than ten times to build Chen Sheng's three-edged blade. Needless to say, the short crossbow was not able to make the wire strings he needed no matter how good the old blacksmith was, and in the end he had to replace them with the elastic tendons.

"These knives are used to save people, and this three-edged blade is used to kill people." Chen Sheng replied very succinctly, beckoned a few people to help fix the rope, and said.

Fusu thought about it, looking at the blade of the small knife that flashed cold, but he was puzzled, this knife is so sharp, and killing people is also accurate, how can it be used to save people?

Fan Hao said to Chen Sheng: "Brother Chen, why don't I go down with you, and it will be safer for one more person." ”

Chen Sheng looked at Fan Hao seriously and said, "You are too big and easy to expose the target, I am also afraid that this rope will not be able to support you, and you will die if you fall." ”

"Then I'll go." Hu Huiyong said. He didn't say much, but every word was very resolute.

Chen Sheng shook his head again. In fact, Chen Sheng knows that when special forces are fighting, most of the time they act in teams, each doing their own thing, and cooperating with each other, which will increase the success rate of things. Although Chen Sheng is only a military doctor, he has also learned the importance of teamwork.

But one thing is that the team that cooperates must be tacit understanding and comrades-in-arms who understand each other, rather than just pulling individuals to do it. It's safer to go it alone.

"Don't worry, I'm enough for me alone, you stay by Childe's side and protect Childe." Chen Sheng smiled at Hu Huiyong, took out a pair of leather gloves from his baggage, put them in his hands, and then pinned the bow and crossbow and triangular blade to his body, and after sorting out everything, he quietly climbed the rope and slid down.

"This kid is so bold!" Fusu smiled bitterly, shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and said; "And it's very characterful." Seeing Chen Sheng's body getting closer and closer to the valley, Fusu's hanging heart slowly relaxed. It's just that there is a cloud of doubt in his heart, Master Wei Yu, also taught him this kind of martial arts?

After quietly landing, Chen Sheng immediately sent a signal to ask the people above to put away the rope so as not to expose the clues. He is well aware that the slightest mistake could lead to him being discovered. And when a single horse is discovered, the end is usually very tragic.
