Grass, sometimes it is to scare the snake, sometimes it is to calm the heart of the snake, everything is two sides of the same thing, it depends on how you operate.

Hu Wei believed that with Ouyang Houtu's intelligence ability, he must have known that he had come to the Ningnan Empire, so there was no need to hide it, and Hu Wei went directly to visit Ouyang Houjian as a prince.

Ouyang Hanbing, the queen of the Ningnan Empire, is Hu Wei's wife, and Hu Wei's identity in the Ningnan Empire is even more prominent in Mandala. Whether it is a young marshal or a marshal, that identity is not as high as the prince. Just because Tianfeng Continent is a place where strength is spoken, the boss with a big fist is the boss, and if he has no military power in his hands, even ten princes can't defeat a general, so the world is more accustomed to calling Hu Wei a young marshal.

Young Marshal Hu Wei represents a powerful military force in the Tianfeng Continent, and Prince Ning Hu Wei is so bad that no one mentions it, and many times when it comes to Ouyang Hanbing, the queen, people are used to changing her name to Second Lady Hu.

Hu Wei saw Ouyang Houtu as a prince, that is, he told Ouyang Houtu, everyone is their own people, people of a country, and they meet as relatives, and there is no other meaning.

Ouyang Houtu has his own property in Greentown, and he does not live in the barracks. It was the first time Hu Wei came to Ouyang Houtu's home, it was different from what he imagined, Ouyang Houtu's house was not luxurious, it was just a very ordinary house.

"If you are lined up in the cold ice, I should call you uncle. Hu Wei drank. Tea, he laughed.

Ouyang Houtu's fat face grew into a bun, and the pair of tricks were almost hidden in the flesh, especially when he laughed, he couldn't see his eyes.

"The prince is polite, too polite.

You can just call me a little dirt. "Your sister's is almost the same as being old-fashioned.

Hu Wei scolded secretly in his heart, if it weren't for all kinds of information showing that there was indeed something wrong with this Ouyang Houtu, Hu Wei would really find it hard to believe that this person in front of him, who was more like a businessman than a general, would have any ambitions.

I don't have anything to talk about, that's Hu Wei's specialty. Although he is not too familiar with Ouyang Houtu, Hu Wei can also chat with Ouyang Houtu very lively.

"This is the famous red flying chicken in Ningnan, you can taste it. ”

Ouyang Houtu took a bite of "you" and was really very respectful to Hu Wei, fortunately he didn't give Hu Wei a "you old", otherwise Hu Wei would really not be able to eat this meal.

Hu Wei pretended to inquire about the situation of Ouyang Houtu's ladies in the name of Ouyang Shuixian, but Ouyang Houtu's reaction was slightly different, and he just replied that they went back to worship the mountain.

Hu Wei was very strange when he heard this, if Ouyang Houtu had the heart to send his wife away, there was no reason to make such a broken reason.

"Yes, why do you say that when you worship the mountain and wish Ouyang Houtu?" Ouyang Shuixian also frowned. Her little brow has barely loosened in the past few days.

Hu Wei said: "Could it be that there is a problem with our direction from the beginning?"

The situation in Ningnan is so tense, and a big war will break out at any time, Ouyang Houtu, as a high-level general of the Ningnan Army, should strengthen the protection of his wife at this time.

Ouyang Shuixian also felt that this was not normal. But she couldn't say what was wrong.

Suddenly, Ouyang Narcissus had a flash of inspiration and said, "Is Ouyang Houtu trying to tell us something?"

"Huh?" Hu Wei's expression moved, he had thought of many possibilities, but he hadn't thought about this possibility.

"You mean that something may have happened to his wife?" Hu Wei reacted very quickly, and immediately recalled the process of today's meeting with Ouyang Houtu. I didn't think it before, but now that I think about it, it seems that whether it is in the living room or when eating, Ouyang Houtu is always followed by two pro-soldiers. At that time, Hu Wei still felt that Ouyang Houtu was afraid of death, and he needed the escort of his own soldiers at any time, but now that he thinks about it, there may be another reason.

Ouyang Shuixian nodded and said, "I don't know much about Ouyang Houtu, but the eldest sister can put such an important power in his hands, she must have had a deep investigation of him." I believe that there will be no problem with the person chosen by the eldest sister, and it is more likely that there will be a problem with the people around Ouyang Houtu. Hu Wei groaned: "It seems that things are more complicated than we look like." ”

At night, it was very quiet.

Hu Wei came to Ouyang Houtu's house again in a night suit. This time, it was much harder to get in than during the day. Starting from five hundred meters away, Hu Wei found a large number of secret whistles, and the jǐng precepts here were actually no less than the imperial palace. Even Hu Wei was full of strength, and he successfully came to Ouyang Houtu's bedroom.

I listened quietly for a while, and there was no sound. Hu Wei entered Ouyang Houtu's room from the roof, there was no one on the chuáng, and it was cool to get up, it should be that Hu Wei had not slept with anyone before he came.

I looked around the room and found nothing. Hu Wei checked a few more rooms, and the situation was exactly the same. It seemed that there was no living person in the room except for the soldiers standing guard.

"It's strange, where did Ouyang Houtu run away without sleeping in the middle of the night?" The more he couldn't find something, the more sure Hu Wei was that something was going on here. If there is nothing, this place will definitely not be so heavily guarded, there is no reason for that.

The master room turned down again, and there was nothing to discover, and Hu Wei turned his head to other areas. There was no movement in the subordinate area, and just when Hu Wei had a headache, he suddenly found that someone in the barracks area was talking.

Ouyang Houtu is the supreme commander of the Ningnan Army, and there are 500 personal soldiers stationed in his home, which is his power and to ensure his safety. So it's legal to have camps here.

Hu Wei followed the voice, and saw two people wearing personal soldier clothes drinking ground. Hu Wei recognized at a glance that those two people were the two personal soldiers who had been following Ouyang Houtu during the day.

According to their attitude towards Ouyang Houtu during the day, this should also be by Ouyang Houtu's side.

Even if they change shifts and don't need to escort Ouyang Houtu with them, it is impossible to drink here.

The pro-soldiers are troops who need to be on standby 24 hours a day, and they are not allowed to drink alcohol at any time. This point is not only in the Immortal Bird Legion, but also in any unit in the Tianfeng Continent, it is all military regulations, and once it is discovered, the consequences are very strict.

For this alone, Hu Wei was sure that there must be something wrong with these two pro-soldiers. He lurked in the shadows, keeping an eye on the conversation between the two. is the so-called drunken spit out the truth, although this word cannot be universally accepted, but people who drink alcohol do not care so much when they speak. After listening to Fengyue for a while, Hu Wei finally heard something useful.

From the conversation between the two pro-soldiers, Hu Wei learned that these two soldiers were indeed not Ouyang Houtu, and what surprised him even more was that they actually locked up Ouyang Houtu.

At first, Hu Wei only thought that Ouyang Houtu was being used by his family to control him, but he didn't dare to think that Ouyang Houtu was actually locked up. This situation is very different from what I imagined.

To solve the two pro-soldiers, it is not too difficult for Hu Wei. But as soon as Hu Wei made a move, he immediately startled the snake. It is very dangerous to do the same thing before you know the strength of the other party. These two pro-soldiers are definitely not the leaders, there must be others behind them. Who is that man?

Hu Wei stayed outside the tent, hoping to get more information, but unfortunately the two pro-soldiers only drank and never mentioned this matter again. In the end, he simply fell asleep, and Hu Wei didn't get any news.

Leaving Ouyang Houtu's home, Hu Wei thought as he walked, who was so strong in the Ningnan Empire that even Ouyang Houtu dared to be locked up. Thinking about it, Hu Wei couldn't think of anyone who could do that.

It was already late at night, and he couldn't sleep for a few hours when he returned to the palace, so Hu Wei thought about not going back at all, he wanted to try the strength of the Ningnan Army again.

That day, I only saw a part of the Ningnan Army, and Hu Wei was going to sneak into other military camps tonight to see if the Ningnan Army was all without combat power.

The defense of the barracks is not as good as the palace, which is not very difficult for Hu Wei, and there are two military camps in a company, and Hu Wei is very light. If he wants to wreak havoc, all he needs to do is set it on fire.

Hu Wei thought that all the military camps in Ningnan were like this, but when he walked to the last military camp, he suddenly found that he had guessed wrong again.

The military camp that Hu Wei entered this club is called Hongshan Camp, and Hu Wei doesn't know the origin of this number, but this is not important, the important thing is that Hu Wei felt the same atmosphere as when he infiltrated Ouyang Houtu's mansion.

The guards of the Hongshan camp were very tight, almost exceeding the strength of Ouyang's thick earth. When Hu Wei found this problem, instead of being nervous, he smiled. It seems that the owner has finally been found.

The barracks are much emptier than Ouyang Houtufu, and even with Hu Wei's ability, he is not sure that he can sneak into ~~~ to the core seat without alarming anyone. In addition, Hu Wei has no understanding of this Hongshan camp at all, and he will not gain anything by entering now.

Tonight's harvest is enough, and everything has to be done one by one, Hu Wei doesn't plan to do everything tonight.

On the way back to the palace, Hu Wei went to Wuyi Lane again, and the official information needed to be retrieved, and Hu Wei on the civilian side also needed it.

After seeing Xiaocao, it was already dawn when he returned to the palace, Hu Wei didn't sleep, and went to see Ouyang Narcissus first. Ouyang Shuixian's sleep was obviously not enough, and her beautiful big eyes were full of bloodshots. Hu Wei told Ouyang Narcissus about the night's harvest, and Ouyang Narcissus immediately ordered someone to investigate.

Li Jing, a more or less strange-sounding name, was put on the agenda.

Hu Wei sat on the Huang Huā pear chair and listened to Ouyang Shuixian recount the information he had found. Li Jing is 45 years old this year, a young and strong officer, and the commander of the Hongshan Battalion. There are 20,000 soldiers in the Hongshan battalion, which may not seem like a lot, but in fact there are more than 20,000 people. In the Tianfeng Continent, many troops have the habit of overreporting the number of people and eating empty salaries, but this Li Whale underreported the number of people. He had not 20,000 soldiers, but 40,000 soldiers.

At least 40,000, the news of this came from Xiaocao. The Huā gang secretly found out that the Hongshan camp would buy grain at the market from time to time.

In the army, I have only heard of selling grain, but I have never heard of buying grain. Military rations are directly issued by the state, and the army does not need to buy its own rations. And Hu Wei also checked from other sources, and there is no evidence that the grain of the Hongshan battalion has been withheld, which means that if the establishment of 20,000 soldiers is used, the food distributed will definitely be enough to eat. Now Li Jing actually secretly bought the food of nearly 20,000 soldiers by himself, which is a problem in itself.

"He is an officer raised by Ouyang Houtu, and he has great influence in the army. When Ouyang Houtu was not there, he could even have the right to manage other troops. "This is the end of Ouyang Shuixian's investigation. However, these are enough to judge Li Jing's situation.

Hu Wei summed it up in his mind and said: "In this way, it is very likely that Li Jing used Ouyang Houtu's name to control the strength of the Ningnan Army, and then he arrested Ouyang Houtu's family, so that Ouyang Houtu did not dare to make any changes."

"After analyzing it in this way, many things that didn't make sense before can now make sense. The Ningnan Army was not without combat power, but a combat-capable army, and all of them were received by Li Jing into the Hongshan camp. His 40,000 troops, maybe more than 40,000, or even more troops, are the troops that can really fight in Ningnan!" Ouyang Shuixian muttered: "Your analysis should be good, but there is one thing I don't understand very well. Why did he do this, with his birth, he could reach the current height, which was already very high, no matter how he was, he would not be able to surpass Ouyang Houtu's status. Rebel and be the emperor he didn t know the situation in ningnan even if he wanted to do this, the soldiers below would not follow him. "What Ouyang Shuixian said is the truth. The Ningnan Empire was indeed different from other empires. The current Ningnan Empire, even the common people know that it has actually been surnamed Hu. Hu Wei is the real king of the Ningnan Empire. Even if someone wants to mutiny, it has to be in the Mandala Empire, and it is useless to follow in the Ningnan Empire.

Hu Wei was thinking about another aspect, but he didn't know how, he always felt that there was something wrong with the name Li Jing. Ningnan is not close to the sea, and generally no one likes to give names that are related to the sea. And this whale is not known to everyone, and no one has even seen a whale in the first place.

What kind of person will this Li Whale be?

Hu Wei kept turning this question in his mind: "If he is tired, doesn't he want to be the emperor himself?"

Hu Wei unconsciously said this, and he himself was startled.

If Li Jing didn't want to be the emperor himself, then there was an explanation. He is a person sent by foreign enemies and has been here for many years, because of the support of external forces, he mixed well in Ningnan, and rose to the top very quickly, only in his forties, he already held the military power, and controlled Ouyang Houtu.

The sum of this qiē is enough for the boss behind Li Whale to collect the fruits of victory.

But the question arises again, what kind of person can be so far-sighted, many years ago, someone like Li Jing was sent to infiltrate the Ningnan army?

Demons?

That's definitely not, the demons have appeared in the Tianfeng Continent for less than ten years, and they can't do such a thing.

Qin Ming is also unlikely. Qin Ming more than ten years ago, like Hu Wei, didn't have much power in his hands, and he couldn't take care of it, where did he have such a long vision and strength, and sent undercover agents to other people's countries.

"Could it be the Honda Turtle Estimate?" Hu Wei looked at Ouyang Shuixian. The origin of Honda's turtle estimation, Ouyang Shuixian, is also known. The Bauhinia Huā Dynasty had enough time and motivation to set up such a moment to kill as early as possible.

Ouyang Shuixian nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Honda Turtle estimates that there is such a possibility, but it is not in his interests to launch it now." Hu Wei is also suspicious of this. Now the Immortal Bird Legion, Qin Ming, and Honda Turtle are estimated to be the three armies united to deal with the demons together. Now that the demon army has sent troops to Ningnan, if Ningnan is not guaranteed, the Mandala Empire will be in danger. There is no Immortal Bird Legion in the Tianfeng Continent, so Qin Ming and Honda Guiyou are also powerless to withstand the attack of the demon clan, whether they have sincerely cooperated before or not, in the current situation, there is no reason to dismantle each other.

There are good things in the Tianfeng Continent, and now the biggest enemy is the demon race. If Li Whale is really the person estimated by Honda Turtle, he should be good at this time, honestly help Hu Wei fight the demons, and then wait for the demons to be destroyed, and then take the opportunity to reverse the muzzle of the gun to deal with Hu Wei. That's the best way to go.

If this analysis is followed, then neither is Honda's tortoise estimate.

Qin Ming is not, the demon clan is not, neither is the Honda turtle estimate, and Hu Wei himself is even more not, so who else?

There seems to be no one to guess anymore.

Hu Wei smiled bitterly and said, "Could it be that we guessed wrong again, this is not the case?" Ouyang Narcissus snorted: "I don't believe that Li Jing is a fool and will launch without a purpose." What does he want now, what else does he need?"

Hu Wei also muttered: "He will definitely not get the position of emperor, and he has all the food and clothing, if it is me, I don't want anything, what else does he want?" "Wait a minute." Hu Wei suddenly raised his head and said, "If he doesn't want to start it, but he has to start it?"

Ouyang Shuixian glanced at Hu Wei and said, "Isn't that back to square one? We just don't know who is forcing him to launch it." ”

Hu Wei shook his head and said, "No, there is one person we have forgotten." ”

"Is there one?" said Ouyang Shuixian with a frown.

"Yes, this person is also very likely. I'm sure you should have guessed that when he broke out, didn't he have his troops in every country?"

Ouyang Shuixian blurted out: "You mean Qin Shangyang, but he is already dead." ”

Hu Wei smiled: "He's dead, who saw it? Is it you, me, Qin Ming, or Honda Turtle Estimate? We didn't see Qin Shangyang's body!"
