Chapter Eighty-Eight: Intelligence

In the evening of the next day, the Djinn Pass.

After a day of fighting, the Ruiguo Iron Cavalry had just collected its troops and returned to the city, and senior generals such as He Ming, Xu Hu, and Lei Bao immediately received a thunderbolt of information.

"A few days ago, Murong Changfeng, the prince of the Long Kingdom, was killed in battle in front of the Giant Spirit Pass, and Murong Kuo sent an army of 200,000 to take revenge, accompanied by seven Demon Sect masters. ”

This news stirred up a thousand waves like a stone, and dozens of high-ranking generals in the Giant Spirit City immediately discussed it.

"Fuck, which bastard killed the Seventh Prince, stand up and let Lao Tzu see. In the tent, Tan Ying, the deputy commander of the Northern Route Army, slapped the table and looked around at the generals fiercely.

"Commander Tan, everyone is dead, what can you do if you stand up?" said a general of the Central Army.

"Hmph, once this person is found, Lao Tzu will immediately bow to him three times, and then report to the court to add him to the rank of knight. Tan Ying glanced at him and said with a smile: "Murong Kuo's son is dead, haha, this is a miracle." ”

"Yes, yes. Someone smiled and echoed: "Haha, Murong Kuo must have repented of his intestines." ”

"I'm also a little curious now, who did it, so strong?"

"Guys, don't just be happy. Although this matter is a great achievement, it can be regarded as a hornet's nest. Right now, the enemy's reinforcements are about to arrive, what should we do? The enemy's master is also coming soon, what should I do? Let's find a way to solve these two things that burn my eyebrows. ”

......

The generals expressed their opinions and discussed a lot.

Lei Leopard was in the middle of it, thinking about it, raised his hand and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have a bit of an eyebrow on the question of who killed Murong Changfeng. ”

"Who?" everyone asked, turning their heads in unison.

"This... I'm just guessing, I'm not sure for sure. Thunder Leopard hesitated.

"Come on, leopard, when did you become so abrasive?"

"Yes, let it go if you have a fart, don't hang everyone's appetite. ”

The generals urged.

"That's right. Lei Leopard cleared his throat and said, "A few days ago, a small flag in our leopard camp seized a knife, and I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Now that I think about it, it is very likely that it is the war knife of the prince. ”

"Then what are you doing in a daze, let's show it to everyone. Xu Shiqian, commander of the Northern Route Army, shouted.

"Okay, I'll pick it up right away. Lei Leopard took the order, got up and walked out of the tent.

It didn't take much time, Lei Bao came in with a long knife, handed it to Xu Shiqian with both hands, and said, "My lord, this is the knife I said." ”

Xu Shiqian stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it repeatedly, and pulled the knife out of the sheath with a brush. The snow-bright sword light was like lightning in the sky, and everyone present felt a chill rushing towards their faces.

"Well, it's really a good knife!" Xu Shiqian nodded in admiration. "Huzi, you go and bring in a few captives. He turned his head and instructed Xu Hu.

"Yes. Xu Hu got up and walked out of the tent.

It didn't take much effort, Xu Hu took a few wounded Xianbei prisoners of war into the camp.

These prisoners of war were also veterans of the battlefield, and they were a little flattered when they saw all the senior generals of the Swiss army in the camp. They looked at each other, and they really couldn't figure out why they were so "treated" so ceremoniously.

Just as he was in shock, a white light came into view, gradually condensing into a long knife.

"Do you know?" Xu Shiqian asked in a deep voice with a long knife pointing obliquely.

"Tamada!" Several Xianbei prisoners of war exclaimed in unison when they saw the long knife, and their faces showed fanaticism.

"King-horse-sword... Wang Sabre?" Xu Shiqian repeated several times, how awkward it was.

"No, it's a horse-king-sword. The other captive corrected in a broken Mandarin very seriously.

"Oh, I had to say it the other way around, haha. Xu Shiqian smiled dumbly. "Whose knife is this, do you know?"

"This is the treasure knife given to us by the gods to our Xianbei clan, and it is the war knife of His Highness Changfeng. The captive had one hand on his chest and a reverent face.

"Who is His Highness Changfeng?" asked Xu Shiqian.

"His Royal Highness Changfeng is the seventh prince of our Long Kingdom, and he was despicably and shamelessly killed by a despicable and shameless person in your Rui Kingdom. The captive said indignantly.

Xu Shiqian asked some more things, which basically corroborated each other with the intelligence.

He instructed the sergeant to take the captives down, looked around at the generals, and said, "It seems that the information we have received is completely true. The enemy did send 200,000 additional reinforcements, and seven masters to help. Ladies and gentlemen, do not spread this news downwards for the time being, so as not to shake the morale of the military. Lao Tan immediately sent a good news to the imperial court, and at the same time asked the imperial court to rush to help. ”

"Lord Xu, if the enemy sends a master of the same level last year, no matter how many troops come to support, it won't be of use!" Lei Leopard said. "Demon Sect Master... Everyone saw it last year, and it was a monster-like existence. I'm afraid that the gods have to come out to suppress those guys. ”

"Leopard, you kid chatters all day long, the fairy is long and the monster is short. I'll give you an important task right now, and I'll get a fairy back right away. If you can invite the immortals, I won't be in a hurry. Xu Shiqian, the commander of the Northern Route Army, scolded with a smile.

"Lord Xu, I'm not talking to a god. You also saw what happened last year. Right there, the gods really appeared, didn't they?" Thunder Leopard defended.

"Alas, even if there are really immortals, we can't pin all our hopes on the immortals, right? What if the immortals are not at home, what if the immortals go out to travel all over the world? What should we do, wait for death?" Xu Shiqian shouted.

Lei Bao heard that he made sense, especially if he didn't directly deny that there were immortals in Rui as usual, so he didn't argue anymore.

Xu Shiqian thought about it for a long time, synthesized various opinions, and finally decided to send three urgent documents to the imperial court at the same time. One is a good news, one is a request for help, and the other is a request for the imperial court to quickly gather the top masters of various sects and factions to solve the urgent need.

At night, Lei Bao found Mo Cong with the Mawang knife, pulled him aside, and whispered:

"Brother, there is good news and bad news about this knife. Which do you want to hear first?"

Mo Cong saw that Lei Leopard's face was serious, and it seemed that something big had happened, so he said, "Let's hear the bad news first!"

Lei Bao was stunned and laughed: "I'll tell you the good news first." He paused, handed the Mawang Knife in his hand to Mo Cong, and said, "We asked a few captives, this knife is called Mawang Knife, and it is a famous treasure knife among the Xianbei clan. In addition, the original owner of this knife is called Murong Changfeng, who is the seventh prince of the Long Kingdom. So, congratulations, Mo Xiaoqi, you have inadvertently killed a big man in the enemy army and captured a famous treasure knife. This is a great credit, and the battle report is being written to ask for credit for you. ”

"Really?" Mo Cong was overjoyed, took the Ma Wang knife and looked left and right, and couldn't put it down. Through the use of the past few days, Mo Cong knew that this was a good knife that was as sharp as clay, and it was unstoppable when it was wielded in his hand, but he didn't expect it to be really a treasure knife, and it still had such a great prestige on the side of the Long Kingdom.

"Ahem, brother, you can study this knife slowly when it is empty. I'll start with the bad news for you. Lei Leopard coughed twice and said.
