Compared to the patchwork army of the Dragon King, the 50,000-strong army temporarily formed by Jinpeng Fort was also very complicated, with less than a quarter of the main force being loyal and reliable, and the army from the client state and a large number of mercenaries were ambiguous.

This army was originally planned to be used to conquer the Xiaoyao Sea and train with the weaker armies of the Five Kingdoms, but they did not expect that the Dragon King and the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain would suddenly emerge from the Oosan.

The Battle of the Easy Sea was very important to Jinpeng Castle, in the previous war, the Beiting cavalry was the well-deserved main force, and the Jinpeng army only followed behind to seize the towns that had been breached, and there was not much chance to show their strength.

Shangguan Jianyi knows the pros and cons of befriending a big country, and he not only has to defeat the Dragon King, but also win beautifully in order to gain more respect from Beiting.

However, the intelligence found in Shi Guo showed that the Dragon King seemed to be very well prepared for this battle, and even if Jinpeng Fort win, it would be a disastrous victory, so after weighing, Shangguan Jianyi decided to postpone the frontal attack and instead confront the Dragon King on another battlefield where he had more advantages.

Jinpeng Castle has a large number of first-rate killers, which the Dragon King is far from matching.

Shangguan Jianyi's goal was not to kill the Dragon King—the cost was too great, but the probability of success was low—but to spread panic throughout the Loose Sea, further unsettling the already unstable military spirit until a major split occurred.

When there were only a few swordsmen left in the Dragon King's army, it was impossible to stop the surging Jinpeng Fort Iron Cavalry, whether it was using fire attacks or setting traps.

Gu Shenwei stood in the enemy's perspective and made the above speculation, Zhong Heng reminded: "Don't be careless about the Dragon King, you are everything in the Great Snow Mountain, kill the Dubu King, there will be the next Dubu King, kill the Dragon King, there will be no second one." ”

Zhong Heng is very good at flattery, he used to be the captain of the city patrol, and the Dragon King was just a killer apprentice in Jinpeng Castle at that time, but now that his identity has been reversed, he can accept it calmly and correct his role well.

Gu Shenwei stared at him, "This is exactly what I am most worried about, Shangguan Jianyi can assassinate anyone, me, you, the royal families of all countries, and even the most ordinary warriors, killing anyone can cause panic, everyone will say that the Dragon King has no ability to protect his people." ”

Gu Shenwei tapped the fingers of his left hand on the table twice, "I really don't have this ability, to deal with killers, I can't just rely on a lot of people." ”

The Dragon King is different from the bosses Zhong Heng has been in contact with in the past, he doesn't like to beat around the bush, and he doesn't like meaningless praise, Zhong Heng's flattery is in moderation, because he also knows very well that the Dragon King is telling the truth, if Shangguan Jianyi turns the assassination into an indiscriminate killing without a clear goal, it will indeed hit the soft underbelly of the Daxue Mountain army.

"The Dragon King does not have the ability to protect everyone, and Shangguan Jianyi does not have the ability to do a drop of water, and the panic caused by killing a thousand ordinary soldiers will be resolved after the enemy commander is caught. Zhong Heng only thinks about the results.

Gu Shenwei has a strong interest in this opponent hidden in the shadows, Shangguan Jianyi is different from ordinary killers, his behavior is bold, his style is bold, just to prove the truth of the two military resources offices, he does not hesitate to sacrifice hundreds of spies, such an opponent, it is difficult to find the law.

The law must be "created" for him.

There are always a few people who Shangguan Jianyi wants to kill the most.

Three days later, the dragon king will marry the princess, Zhong Heng has worked hard to shorten the procedure, but the other party is a princess after all, some links cannot be omitted, and if it is streamlined, it will contain the meaning of insult.

This news did play a good role in moderating, first of all, the people of Shiguo began to add "we" in front of the title of "dragon king", "only we dragon kings are worthy of princess ......"

The soldiers of the Shi Kingdom in the barracks may not have any sense of loyalty, at least they no longer panicked that the Dragon King was planning a massacre, and the tense mood of the soldiers of the other four countries was also slightly relaxed.

The old warriors were happy for the dragon king, and their intimacy with this strange land increased a lot.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Dragon King announced that Dugu Xian would be appointed as General Zuo.

As the deputy of the Dragon King, Dugu Xian is in charge of many important responsibilities such as reorganizing the army, training soldiers, and formulating battle plans.

The reactions of the parties were diametrically opposed.

The trust of the soldiers of the five countries in the Dragon King has increased by another point, Dugu Xian was once their commander, and he has surrounded and suppressed the Dragon King's army many times, even such surrendered generals can be forgiven, not to mention these people?

Everyone else was able to say that only the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain and the swordsmen left behind by Tonoya vehemently opposed the appointment.

The patriarchs led more than a dozen swordsmen, and they came to question the dragon king violently, and some even drew their heavy swords and waved them around, which seemed to outsiders to be desperate with the dragon king.

Gu Shenwei understood these people, rude and direct, but simple-hearted, drawing a sword is just a way to express emotions, just like a literati waving a fan, so he did not get angry, but patiently explained.

Dugu Xian is a professional general, he has no hatred for Daxue Mountain, and he has no malice, Xiao Wanguo was held hostage by King Dubu, and his relatives and friends became hostages, and he was forced to do things for Pengbao.

Gu Shenwei exaggerated a little, Dugu Xian did not have a deep affection for his home country and relatives, he adhered to a simple professional concept and could work for anyone.

In Dugu Xian's heart, there is no so-called loyalty, which is precisely the reason why Gu Shenwei believes in him.

But Dugu Xian of this image was not recognized by the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain, so Gu Shenwei hid something from them.

The patriarchs reluctantly accepted the reason provided by the dragon king, and it seemed that they were not very convinced.

And they didn't quit, you look at me and I look at you, it seems that you still have something to say, but you don't know how to speak.

"Is there anything else?" Gu Shenwei was slightly surprised.

Everyone was silent, and finally the one-eyed patriarch Long Xiaoshi, who had the highest status, spoke, "There is something, well, the dragon king and the princess are about to get married, well, we are all very happy, um, but, um......"

It is rare for a swordsman from the Great Snow Mountain to speak in a circle.

Long Xiaoshi coughed several times, and finally poured out all the rest of the words, "But you are the Dragon King of the Great Snow Mountain, and the first queen should also be the woman of the Great Snow Mountain." ”

They came to force marriage.

The swordsmen were originally a little embarrassed, but they actually spoke, and became straightforward again, the Huagai Peak Patriarch Long Chuanyun has always been the strongest supporter of the Dragon King, and at this time he also joined the ranks of "forced marriage", "If the Dragon King can marry first, or marry a woman from the Snow Mountain at the same time, it will be our supreme glory." ”

"Marrying a princess is to stabilize the morale of the army, as you must know. Gu Shen dealt with it carefully, not wanting to disappoint the swordsmen, nor wanting to give them illusory hope, "And this place is separated from the Great Snow Mountain by thousands of mountains and rivers, I don't think you can turn into a woman of your own clan." ”

"You don't need to change, there's just one ready-made. Long Xiaoshi immediately said, with a happy face, obviously thinking that the Dragon King had agreed to everyone's request.

Gu Shenwei was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that in the capital of Shiguo, there was indeed a woman from the Great Snow Mountain.

Jiang is the maid sent by Luoshenfeng to serve the Dragon King, and has been living in the palace since coming to Shiguo, and the Dragon King has returned to the Easy Sea, entangled in affairs, and is always in danger, so he didn't take her out.

Thinking of the clumsy girl Jiang who was always blushing, Gu Shenwei suddenly understood something, "It turns out that you have already set me a good set." ”

The swordsmen's faces were also a little red, and they were ashamed to deceive the Dragon King, but they couldn't help but feel a little proud that their plan was successful.

"Jiang is the best girl in the Great Snow Mountain, let's ......" Long Xiaoshi was about to say more, but the Dragon King waved his hand to interrupt him.

"I'll think about it. Gu Shenwei said perfunctorily, the swordsmen are simple-minded, most of the time this is a good thing, but sometimes it will cause trouble, marrying the princess of Shiguo is to appease the hearts of the people of the five countries, and marrying another woman at the same time will backfire, making people think that the dragon king despises the free sea.

The swordsmen were still unwilling, but the dragon king had already shown an obvious intention to expel the guests, and everyone had to retreat.

Gu Shenwei felt that the matter would not end there, so he could only delay as much as possible.

Less than a quarter of an hour after the swordsmen left, three more lobbyists came to the door, and this time, Gu Shenwei couldn't even say anything about "considering".

The three warlocks of the Great Snow Mountain are of great significance to the Dragon King, and when he asked the heavens for his will several times, the Dragon King received strong support from the gods, which was not all accidental and "providential".

The three warlocks saluted respectfully to the Dragon King, and then said nothing.

Gu Shenwei felt a deep headache, and he couldn't reason with the warlocks of the Great Snow Mountain, but this was the evil result of his own planting, and one of the promises he made when he negotiated with the warlocks was to marry the queen they chose.

Unexpectedly, they had already picked it out and sent it to the Dragon King.

When Jiang first arrived, Gu Shenwei had doubts, but the warlocks never made a request, and he slowly forgot about it.

"Okay. Gu Shenwei had no choice, the Great Snow Mountain swordsman was too important to him, "I will marry the princess and Jiang at the same time." ”

Before the dragon king nodded, the news had already spread, and the swordsmen used this matter as a capital to show off, spreading it everywhere, and there was no way to stop it.

As soon as the warlocks left, Zhong Heng ran in, "Dragon King, they say ......"

"That's right. ”

Zhong Heng was stunned, he knew that the Dragon King must have a last resort reason for doing this, "Do they know the danger of this matter?"

Gu Shenwei shook his head, how could he tell the swordsmen that marrying the princess and appointing Dugu Xian all had another purpose, to use the two of them as bait to attract Shangguan Jianyi's attention?

The swordsman and warlock would not know that their good intentions were putting Jiang in danger.

Zhong Heng also had a worry that he didn't say, if the Dragon King married two daughters together, would it make the other woman turn against him.

He also felt a headache, woman, he thought, even more elusive than Shangguan Jianyi, who had a fluctuating style.

On the second watch of the night, Shangguan Jianyi shot at the first target, setting off an assassination frenzy, and he wanted to use his head to set up a big wedding gift for the dragon king.
