The Daxueshan Military Depot is located forty miles southwest of the capital of Shiguo, backed by the Xiaoyao Sea, with a small wharf built on each side, a small river on each side as a natural moat, and only a narrow entrance and exit in the northeast corner.

More than ten miles from this is the so-called wild boar slope, where the terrain is slightly undulating, the road is under the slope, and the slope is a wilderness full of rocks.

Shangguan Fei excused himself and ran to the top of the slope, releasing water while looking into the distance, bewildered by what he saw.

Two or three miles away, it looked like a swamp, a swamp with no grass, and there were large potholes, filled with black viscous liquid, like an old man who was about to die, slowly and weakly spitting out big bubbles.

There were about 200 people, all of whom covered their nostrils with cloths, and were scooping out buckets of black liquid and transporting it from ox carts in the direction of the capital of Shiguo.

There was a faint unpleasant smell floating in the air, it was too unfamiliar to Shangguan Fei, and he didn't even know how to describe it.

Shangguan Fei felt inexplicable, but the Dragon King said that as long as he told Shangguan Hong what he had seen and heard, there was no need to ask anything else.

The style of the dragon king, he will never reveal all the plans in advance, Shangguan Fei pouted, and was about to tie his trouser belt, when a scene in the distance attracted his attention.

Someone who appeared to be an overseer, presumably trying to test the liquid's efficacy, lit the velvet and threw it into a bucket.

The dazzling flames rose into the air, jumping out more than a foot high, startling everyone around them.

Shangguan Fei was also taken aback, probably understanding what these things were for, and then he had doubts, why did such a useful trick be revealed to the enemy commander through Shangguan Hong?

The dragon king's strategy is always too complicated, sooner or later there will be an overcalculation, Shangguan Fei secretly made a judgment on the dragon king, jumped down the hill, got on the horse to catch up with the team in front, he didn't want to stay behind alone for too long, the dragon king was right, the Jinpeng killer was probably waiting for him to be alone.

There are a lot of things in the arsenal, and there are all kinds of armor and equipment, which seems to be enough to equip an army of tens of thousands of people.

Zhong Heng did put a lot of thought into this.

The Shangguan brothers followed the Dragon King to accept his protection, not to be a staff officer, so they kept silent.

In a corner of the arsenal, hundreds of craftsmen were sweating and hurrying, but what they had made was very simple: narrow blocks of wood six or seven feet long, with seven or eight holes in them, riveted into two or three feet of wooden thorns, which were very sharp, and many carpenters had bandages on their hands.

Gu Shenwei also didn't explain the purpose of these things, but just whispered to the military treasury manager around him, the manager was a little sluggish, and replied loudly: "We tried it with live pigs......" Here he turned to lower his voice, "It's easy to use, some will be crushed, but there are always a few that can penetrate." ”

On this day, the affairs of the dragon king were very complicated, he went to the military treasury, and went to check the training of slave soldiers, and summoned at least seven people on the way to inquire about the preparation for war.

The dragon king paid special attention to the nearby terrain, and whenever he went to a place that might be conducive to battle, he had to ask his retinue to write it down and even draw a rough outline.

The two Shangguan brothers had a strong impression from this, and the army of the Great Snow Mountain was determined to win the war that was about to begin.

It wasn't until after the second watch that the dragon king returned to the barracks, and the escort team was divided into three groups, each going in different directions, so that ordinary people could not figure out the real residence of the dragon king.

Shangguan Fei began to think about how to skillfully instill false information into Shangguan Hong, and he couldn't say it directly, that would only arouse suspicion.

As he was about to return to the camp, he came up with a way to curry favor with a few familiar swordsman guards, wait for the dragon king to disband the group, and invite them to his tent for a drink.

Shangguan Fei would be a very likable young man, if he wanted to, and from the first time he joined the army of the Great Snow Mountain, he paid great attention to cultivating relationships with the swordsmen, so this invitation was warmly responded.

The Great War is imminent, and the Dragon King has issued many bans, but he has forgotten about the prohibition of alcohol.

Even so, these seven or eight people kept their voices low, not wanting the dragon king who lived not far away to hear it, but when they drank to their heart's content, there would always be one or two noises that suddenly became louder.

Shangguan Hong, who lived next door, suffered from it, and the irregular noise was more annoying than the constant noise, he couldn't sleep at all, and his hearing became more and more acute.

Although Shangguan Fei's method of instilling intelligence does not show traces, it also has a shortcoming, I don't know if Shangguan Hong heard it, so he kept a hand, and only said the strange scene he saw, without mentioning the specific location.

Early the next morning, Shangguan Hong entered his brother's tent for the first time, complained to him, and blamed him for disturbing his dreams, "What black oil, big fire, drunk and nonsense without a few drinks." ”

Shangguan Fei didn't wake up from a hangover, but he still remembered his mission in his mind, "I'm not talking nonsense, Wild Boar Slope...... Forget it, why are you telling you this? Hey, what are you doing here? Get out. ”

Shangguan Hong snorted and turned around to leave, but Shangguan Fei stopped him again, "What are you wearing this brand new dress for?"

"What's the matter with you?" Shangguan Hong replied stiffly.

"You're going to steal Xu Yanwei!" Shangguan Fei shouted, for fear that the people outside the tent wouldn't hear, "You don't want to live, and you dare to leave the Dragon King's side at this time?"

Shangguan Hong seemed reluctant to answer this childish question, but he couldn't help but show off, "Stupid, of course I won't take risks, hehe, it's not me who went to see her, it was she who came to see me, this dress was what I wore last night, do you think it's just you who have a guest here?"

"This stinky bitch. Shangguan Fei couldn't help but scold, he didn't envy Shangguan Hong for having a woman to accompany him, but was jealous of Xu Yanwei's status, obviously one of the countless prostitutes in Biyu City, how could he gain the trust of the Dragon King and go in and out freely? He had seen Xu Yanwei pampering and playing a scoundrel in front of the Dragon King, so he believed that she would dare to do anything.

"Keep her mouth clean, she is now the princess's personal maid. ”

"Princess. Shangguan Fei spit out two words disdainfully, his heart became more and more sour, he was not interested in women, but it was still difficult to accept that the person he wanted to marry was robbed by the Dragon King.

"You dare to speak ill of the princess, she is the future queen of the Great Snow Mountain. ”

"Go, go, I'm going to sleep. ”

Being able to torture the arrogant younger brother a little, Shangguan Hong would never let go of this opportunity, not only did not leave, but walked a few steps closer, "Alas, I forget it, I used to be similar to a slave in the stone castle, but the ninth young master is different, I almost married the princess and became the king of the stone country, and I can be on an equal footing with the dragon king, but now, if I want to talk to the princess's maid, I am not qualified." ”

Shangguan sat up with a huff, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be complacent, ...... in the future Hmph, don't say it in the future, the dragon king won't marry the princess, he likes my sister and gave her the entire country of incense, you and that bitch never want to please the dragon king by the light of the princess. ”

Shangguan Hong was about to give his younger brother a fatal blow, "It's ridiculous, and it's so amorous, the dragon king likes your sister so much, how could he give all the books left by the high priest to the princess and ask her to help decipher ......"

Shangguan Hong closed his mouth in time, and Shangguan Fei asked in confusion: "What to decipher? Is it more valuable than the country of incense?"

"I won't tell you, in short, the dragon king has a hundred trusts in the princess, even if the dragon king marries several wives at the same time in the future, the princess will be the queen, your sister, be a concubine, haha. ”

"She is also your sister, and you also have the surname Shangguan. Shangguan Fei shouted angrily.

Shangguan Hong was not proud of his surname and left satisfied.

In this way, both men completed their tasks.

Shangguan Hong didn't have any suspicions, but after making up the story, it made him miss Xu Yanwei a little, "That bitch is much stronger than the wild woman in the country of incense." In his heart, like ordinary prostitutes, he looks down on the woman he gets.

Shangguan Fei thought more, of course he knew what was hidden in the books left by the high priest, but how could such an important secret be handed over to the princess? Soon he understood that the princess did not know martial arts, and she did not have the first few chapters of the Wudao Divine Skill in her hand, so it was safest to hand it over to her to decipher.

The next question is, why did this news reach his ears? The Dragon King would not allow such an obvious loophole to exist, and Shangguan Fei's vigilance increased sharply.

At the same time, Gu Shenwei, who had only slept for more than two hours, had already gotten up and was discussing the military situation with Zhong Heng.

Except for the Dragon King himself, Zhong Heng was the only person who knew about the conspiracy, although he felt that it was very ingenious, but there were also many flaws, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't help but mention this matter again, "Dragon King, please allow me to say more." ”

Gu Shenwei nodded, the lotus girl was not there, and he just needed a bystander to help him sort out the whole plan.

"Have you ever thought that the two of them are actually acting, and they don't hate each other that much at all, and they just confuse outsiders to make this gesture?"

"Possibly. Gu Shenwei knew the root of the hatred between the two well, but he was still a little suspicious, "It's not important." He added.

"As long as they communicate a little, they know that the Dragon King bets on both sides and gives fake news. ”

"It's not all fake news. "Gu Shenwei made corrections, and it was a good strategy to have truth in the false, "No matter how we design, Shangguan Jianyi will be suspicious, and when he asks for verification, I will let him see the real content with his own eyes, so he can't believe it." ”

Zhong Heng could only choose to believe in the Dragon King, but he still had a question: "How does the Dragon King know that it must be Shangguan Hong who escapes, not Shangguan Fei, or the two of them flee together?"

"Shangguan Fei will stay, because his ambition is greater, he will not leave until he gets what he really wants, and he will try to gain my trust in him as much as possible. ”

The Dragon King's answer did not convince Zhong Heng completely, but he was a smart man and knew when to shut up, and there were some things that the Dragon King hid from him, and he would never get to the bottom of it.

Gu Shenwei's plan progressed slowly, but that night, the first news came that was not what he imagined, Shangguan Hong did try to escape, but was assassinated on the way.
