I saw a bearded general turn over and dismount, clasped his fists and said loudly: "It's Lord Yue?" The last general, Hu Tang, thank you Lord Yue for helping to save the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in my city, please accept my waiting. After saying that, he knelt down on one knee, and the soldiers behind him immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted.

Murong Feng glanced at Shen Lao, who was mixed in the team, turned over and dismounted and said with a slight chin: "General Hu doesn't have to be polite, please get up and speak." ”

Hu Tang was not hypocritical, straightened up and saluted Murong Feng and his party again, and said politely: "Lord Yue, the last general has ordered someone to prepare wine and food in the mansion, and please move there." ”

Murong Feng nodded and said, "Then I will ask the general to lead the way." ”

"Please." Hu Tang immediately took the initiative to lead the way and invited Murong Feng and his party into the gorgeous City Lord's Mansion.

In the hall of Fuzhong, there was indeed a table of wine and food as Hu Tang said, but the wine was good wine, but the dishes were only some half-cooked barbecue meat and full black bread.

Hu Tang held his helmet and said embarrassedly: "Please don't be surprised, Lord Yue, there is only a lot of food left in the city, and this is already the best table of wine and food that the last general can come up with, but this wine is the city lord's century-old treasure, and it is definitely the best in the wine." ”

"The general is serious." Murong Feng was not hypocritical, he sat down and ate directly, and the arrogance of eating meat and drinking immediately infected everyone present.

Kratos didn't say a word, and just threw off his arms and ate Hesse.

Hu Tang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and toasted Murong Feng repeatedly.

Murong Feng took the opportunity to ask, "I heard that there is still an archbishop in the city, why don't you see the general to introduce me?" ”

Hu Tang's face immediately froze, and the wine in the bowl spilled a little, and said embarrassedly: "Lord Yue doesn't know, Archbishop Yodel is injured and is now bedridden, so I can't introduce you to you." ”

Murong Feng nodded abruptly, and asked again, "Since the archbishop is injured, it should be me who came to visit." ”

Hu Tang's face became more and more stiff, and he was about to find some excuse to prevaricate, when he suddenly heard a cough from outside the hall: "Ahem, how dare the old man Lao Yue, don't come to visit, please don't blame the old man for being late." ”

Murong Feng looked up and saw a blackened old man with a beard on his face outside the hall being helped into the hall.

"Your Excellency is Archbishop Yodel?" Murong Feng hurriedly got up to greet him.

Archbishop Yodel coughed and hurriedly said, "Your Excellency is very polite, please bow to the old man first." ”

"The archbishop doesn't have to be polite." Murong Feng dared to let the old man worship him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him to sit down next to his seat.

And that General Hu Tang kept his face black and didn't say a word from beginning to end.

"The old man is injured and inconvenient to drink, so I can only toast you with tea instead of wine." As soon as Yodel sat down, he first toasted Murong Feng, and he was grateful to Murong Feng for his kindness in relieving the siege.

Murong Feng was polite and gave a yodel in return.

"Why didn't General Hu drink it?" Murong Feng changed his hand and toasted Hu Tang again, making him a little flattered, and hurriedly drank all the wine in the bowl to show his boldness.

Murong Feng sat in the middle, Hu Tang on the left hand and Yodel on the right, the etiquette was thorough, and no one was left and right, showing everyone's demeanor everywhere, so that people knew at a glance that it must be from a wealthy family.

Hu Tang couldn't hide what he was saying, and after a few glasses of hot wine, he couldn't help but ask about Murong Feng's origins.

But what kind of person is Murong Feng, how could he be asked by a martial artist, and after pushing the cup and changing the lamp, not only did he answer without leaking, but he asked many things from Hu Tang's mouth.

For example, one of the most pressing problems in the city at present is the shortage of food and grass, and Hu Tang has repeatedly proposed to send ships south to transfer grain or go to the fortress to borrow grain, but Archbishop Yodel has vetoed them.

And the reason given by Yodel for opposition is also very strong, the fortress is on the front line, and the relationship with the city of Enstinger is cold, so even if there is a large amount of grain and grass hoarded in the fortress, it is not easy to mobilize one grain at a time, otherwise no one can afford the crime of losing the fortress due to the instability of the army's morale. As for transporting grain to the south, it is even more impossible, firstly, because of the lack of ships, all of them went to help the fortress to transfer people and horses. The second reason is that it takes ten days and half a month to send a fleet to the south to transport grain back and forth, and if there is a change in the north during this period, I am afraid that the soldiers and civilians of the whole city will have to be trapped in this Enstinger City.

Listening to Yodel's slow explanation of the reasons for his objection, Hu Tang couldn't help but slap the table and scolded: "I didn't say that all the ships should be sent to transport grain, only a hundred ships can be transported from the south to meet the needs of the soldiers and civilians in the city for a month. ”

"Don't be angry, general." Murong Feng hurriedly became a peacemaker and persuaded: "If you have something to say, Archbishop Yodel is also thinking about the safety of the soldiers and civilians in the city." ”

"It's still Lord Yue who is sensible." Archbishop Yodel hurriedly gave a sycophant and glanced at Hu Tang with disdain.

Murong Feng smiled, changed the topic and asked, "I don't know how many soldiers and civilians are in the city?" And how many ships are there? ”

Hu Tang said bluntly: "There are about 50,000 old and weak civilians in the city, and about 2,000 soldiers can fight. ”

Archbishop Yodel snorted coldly and continued: "As for the two hundred large and small ships, the old man has already calculated that even if each ship is filled with people, it will be enough to transport 50,000 people. If half of the ships were to be sent south to transport grain, it would mean that in the event of a drastic change, half of the people in the city would not be able to evacuate safely. ”

Hu Tang glared and snorted: "Then when the demons attacked the city before, why didn't you let the old and weak in the city board the ship and evacuate first?" ”

Yodel sneered: "The soldiers are still fighting bloody battles, how can they evacuate the civilians in the city without permission?" What if the morale of the army is shaken? ”

"Are you the commander-in-chief, or am I the commander-in-chief!" Hu Tang slapped the table and said angrily: "You are the one who said that you would not send the ship south, and it was you who would not let the old and weak board the ship." What are your intentions, old horseman? ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Murong Feng hurriedly toasted and persuaded the two to calm them down. But everyone here had no appetite for drinking, so they had to break up early.

Hu Tang had already ordered someone to prepare a room for Murong Feng and the six of them, and they had everything to wash.

After some washing, Murong Feng pushed open the window and looked at the north with the cold night breeze blowing, and contacted Tyrell again.

"The boss has found out the mole?" Tyrrell asked.

Murong Feng said: "Things are more complicated than I imagined, and there may be other hidden secrets. ”

Tyrrell wondered, "Something else?" ”

Murong Feng said lightly: "I have already been in contact with the nominal supreme commander in this city, but he is just a martial artist, and he has the name of commander but has been stripped of his military power by an old fox. ”

Tyrrell was surprised, "Old fox? But the Yodele Archbishop? ”

This time it was Murong Feng's turn to be surprised: "What? Do you know this person? ”

Tyrrell replied, "I have an old scholar by my side, the heir of Hradim. According to him, the Archbishop of Jodel in Nestinger was not a simple man, but a powerful member of the Church of Sakaram. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been placed in Enstinger, which is the closest human city to the Arrett Mountains. ”

Murong Feng muttered, "The magic communication device in that city should also be controlled in his hands. This old fox did not allow the ship to be sent to transport food, and second, did he not let the civilians board the ship and evacuate, did he want to be trapped in a lonely city and wait for death? ”

As for acting as a traitor and taking refuge in the demons? Murong Feng had also suspected it before, but when she approached the old man at the banquet just now, she found that the rich holy light power on his body could not hide her perception at all. If this old man dares to betray the human race and join the demons, then the Holy Light will also betray him at the first time. This is also the reason why Murong Feng did not directly win the most suspicious yodel at the banquet.

There was a knock on the door.

Murong Feng ended Tyrell's contact and said, "Come in." ”

The door was squeaked open, and Kratos, Dante, Shen Lao, Li Min, and Tia walked in.

"My lord, did you call us here late at night?" Li Min stepped forward and asked respectfully.

Murong Feng didn't go around in circles, and said bluntly: "I suspect that there is a traitor in this Enstinger City who colludes with demons. ”

Everyone's faces changed slightly, and their expressions immediately became solemn.

Murong Feng continued: "The demon besieged the city before, but the barrier fortress that was only a sea away was unaware, which is really strange. ”

Li Min whispered, "This is impossible, isn't there a magical communication device in this city that is connected by a fortress?" ”

"That's the key." Murong Feng said, "The magic communication device did not send any warnings or requests for help to the fortress. ”

Tia wondered: "Could it be that the defenders in the city are afraid of affecting the morale of the troops on the other side of the fortress, so they would rather be trapped in the lonely city than ask for help from the fortress?" ”

Li Min glanced at her and said, "You think of everyone too noblely. ”

Tia pouted, "I'm just going to say that." ”

Murong Feng said: "You also heard at the banquet just now, there are only more than two hundred ships in this Enstinger City, which can safely transport all the soldiers and civilians in the city. But don't forget, there are 5,000 defenders on the other side of the fortress! One thousand of them were the original defenders of the fortress, while the other four thousand were warriors recruited from all over the country by an ancient organization called Hradim. ”

Murong Feng looked at Li Min as he spoke, and Li Min immediately explained, "My lord, I am indeed a member of Hradim. However, the members of this organization are very scattered, and basically one master leads one disciple to pass it on, and there is little communication between members. ”

Murong Feng suddenly nodded slightly, looked at Tia and ordered, "I hope you can go and secretly watch the church in the city tonight and monitor any disturbances in that church." ”

"No problem, wrap it up on me." Tia immediately swore by it.

Murong Feng looked at Li Min again and said, "Although the Yodel Archbishop who is in charge of the magic communication device is the most suspicious, maybe someone else is secretly making trouble. ”

Li Min immediately guessed what Murong Feng wanted to say, "My lord, do you mean that there may be cultists in this city?" ”

After all, only those cultists dared to collude with demons, and it was no wonder that Li Min was so suspicious.

"Not impossible! But there are absolutely yes! Murong Feng took a breath of the cold night breeze outside the window, and said lightly: "I smelled the smell of evil shadow energy in the air, but I don't know much about these cultists. ”

Li Min immediately took the initiative to ask: "My lord, let me go and find out all those cultists!" ”

"That's why I came to you." Murong Feng nodded and instructed the second daughter: "Tia, you and Dante act together, if you encounter a strong enemy, you can let Dante take action." Li Min, you and Kratos act together, remember to watch this reckless thing, but don't let him make the city crazy. ”

Kratos scratched his head and smiled, "Don't say this to my face, my lord." ”

Li Min smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, then you might as well let me do this alone." ”

"I'm not at ease if you go alone." Murong Feng chuckled, "Go ahead." ”

"What about me, my lord?" Shen Lao was eager to try.

Murong Feng asked, "That Hu Tang should be your fellow countryman, right?" ”

Shen Lao said with a dry smile: "It's a fellow countryman, but the ancestor of Hu Tang has moved out of Xiansai Island for three generations." ”

"That's fine." Murong Feng instructed: "Go find some good wine, you and that Hu Tang will not get drunk at night." ”

Shen Lao's greedy eyes flashed, and he immediately understood, and said with a smile: "My lord, please rest assured, with my old man, I will ensure that Hu Tang will even explain his ancestors for three generations." ”

"Don't be poor, go quickly." After arranging the task and sending everyone away, Murong Feng was rarely idle. Leaving a mirror image in the room, the deity jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.

To the east of the city of Enstinger is a rugged mountain range, and if you climb over the mountain, it is a narrow strait, and it is only across the sea from the main peak of Arret, the lair of the demon king of sin, Azmodan.

Murong Feng landed on a hill in the snowstorm, staring at the sky-high flames on the other side of the strait.

"Hehe, it looks like you've miscalculated, girl." Brother Tai popped his head out and laughed.

Murong Feng glanced at the calm sea and said: "The enemy is clear and I am secret, as long as the enemy boss is not a fool, he will not act rashly, I originally planned to wait for the rabbit but I just wanted to catch a few tongues." ”

Tens of thousands of demons were single-handedly annihilated by Murong Feng under the city of Enstinger, so terrifying Murong Feng didn't believe that the other party's boss would be indifferent, at least he should have sent spies to cross the sea overnight to find out the situation.

It's just that Murong Feng didn't expect that the other party's coach seemed to be a little too cautious, or he was really frightened, so he didn't even have the courage to send a spy over, causing her to run away in vain in the middle of the night.

Murong Feng casually dropped a few scouts to monitor every move on the other side, clapped his hands and said, "Forget it, go back." ”

Suddenly, Brother Tai said lightly: "Wait a while, there are really fish on the hook!" ”

"Where? Where? Murong Feng's eyes widened in surprise.

"Haili! Nautical mile! I'll help you catch it! Brother Tai came out excitedly, but Murong Feng pulled it back and stuffed it into his pocket: "If you don't have a good driver, I'll come." ”

Murong Feng was afraid that this foodie would not take it lightly, and killed the demon spies who had been waiting for him so hard.

I saw that under the dark and cold sea, three black shadows quietly swam to the shore. One of the shadows touched the shore, while the other two remained motionless at the bottom of the ocean.

Murong Feng, who was hiding in the dark to observe, put aside a miniature scout to monitor the two black shadows in the sea, and then personally caught up with the black shadows that had landed on the shore.
