The examination and interrogation of the assassins were carried out in secrecy, and were undertaken by members of the security services. Wu Feng did not want this matter to affect his schedule. He was very satisfied with He Zicai's performance. Afterwards, he learned that it was He Zicai's accurate judgment that prevented the guards' attention from being distracted by the bottom-cutting and phosphorus bombs. My own guards still exposed many weaknesses in this regard, but their performance was generally not satisfactory.
At dawn, Wu Feng let the fleet set off eastward. No one knew that a prisoner had been captured on the ship. Wu Feng did not want outsiders to know. The secret interrogation soon came to a conclusion. The captured female assassin was from Donghai County. A small sect in Huaiyang Prefecture - Wan Jian Clan. This is a small sect that is not very famous. Kung Fu is famous for its swordsmanship. According to the assassin's confession, the person who was out of tune is her head brother. They, Wan Jian Clan, A total of five people came to this operation. She didn't know where the other cooperators came from. The security department also found a medicine pouch made of phoenix grass from the gap between the female assassin's teeth. It was probably intended to be used after the assassination failed. It is not known whether the assassin did not want to die or was too late to use it. In short, it was not used. .
The fleet sailed smoothly on the river. In Jincheng, Wufeng declined the invitation to go ashore for a rest and only stopped at the dock outside the city. He had already realized the seriousness of the problem. He had just set off from Hanzhong and had already tried to attack continuously. And looking at this situation, each wave is getting stronger and stronger. If he still follows the plan, he is afraid that he will encounter more assassinations.
"Zicai, what do you think we should go east all night?" Wu Feng asked straight to the point when He Zicai was summoned.
The lean man was flattered by Wu Feng's affectionate greeting, but He Zicai was stunned by Wu Feng's question: "Sir, do you want to sail at night?"
"Well, I think our parking plan may have been learned by the enemy. Even if it is not fully known, I think the other party can make a rough estimate. The security measures in these places are too rough and there is no defense capability at all. We completely rely on ourselves. , it’s like relying on our own strength to defeat each other’s traps one by one, I don’t want to be so passive.” Wu Feng nodded and waved for the other party to sit down and talk.
Sitting on the edge of the chair with half his buttocks, He Zicai felt that sitting was more uncomfortable than standing. He replied respectfully: "It is not impossible to sail at night. From the Jinjiang section to the Yajiang section, except for the Xiling Gorge section, which is more dangerous, the rest There is no big problem when flying at night along the road, but if the night flight encounters a battle on the water, the danger will increase a lot. The opponents are all desperadoes, they can not care about life and death, sir, you can't compare with them."
"Then you mean to stick to the original plan?" Wu Feng frowned.
"No, I think this is possible. The enemy is definitely still deploying according to the original plan. We can now fly at night according to your advice, not stay at the original parking place, disrupt the enemy's deployment, and then adjust the deployment when the enemy Later, we resumed the current plan and let the enemy focus on one thing and lose the other." He Zicai thought about it and came up with a workaround. He is worthy of being a person who has been on the road for a long time.
"Well, that's a good idea. Then go make arrangements right away. Now we'll set off eastward without stopping in Jincheng." Wu Feng immediately agreed.
The fleet of Mr. Bai Shenggong and His Royal Highness the Seventeenth Princess of the Empire suddenly sailed eastward, which disappointed the merchants and gentry in Jincheng Mansion who wanted to meet. However, when they learned that the fleet had been attacked in Huaikou, the gentry and merchants They blamed the poor management of the local government, which led to chaos in public security and rampant water bandits on the river. Even the fleets of distinguished guests were attacked. This was simply a shame for Jincheng. They jointly submitted a letter demanding rectification of public security on the Jinjiang River.
"Miss Ruoxing, Shuangying, Mingxia, come and sit down." Wu Feng looked very comfortable in his living room, and a lotus-colored gown made Wu Feng even more elegant.
After a few people took their seats, Wu Feng asked them about their understanding and analysis of the assassin's situation. The three of them agreed that Wan Jianmen was just a minion. It was estimated that the enemy sent them to test the truth. If it happens next time, they may Not as lightweight anymore. However, several people have different opinions on who is the mastermind behind this, and whether the first wave of attackers and the second wave of attackers are one group of people or two groups of people.
"Judging from the performance of the first wave of attackers, the opponent should be proficient in water kung fu, but on the contrary, the land kung fu is not very good. This can be seen from the opponent's use of crossbows and the performance of being repelled by the escort as soon as they boarded the boat. This was obviously like a sneak attack, and they escaped after missing a hit. The second wave of assassins were obviously different from the first wave. They had division of labor, organization, and their own way. The ship-cutting attracted a group of people, and initiated There was a group of people who attacked on the water, another group of people who boarded the boat to plot the assassination, and another group of people who were responsible for the cover. The division of labor was meticulous. If Mr. He Zicai hadn't reacted quickly enough, I'm afraid we would all have been fooled." Qin Shuangying also said Do not cover up your own mistakes.
"I don't agree with Miss Qin's view." The speaker was Leng Ruoxing, and Wufeng's eyes immediately turned to him, because on the ship, Leng Ruoxing changed from his usual wide robe and wore an arrow-sleeved outfit as an exception. The convex and concave parts, the graceful and graceful figure is on full display, the lips are red and the teeth are white, the eyebrows are picturesque, the enchanting energy, not to mention a bunch of boatmen and sailors were stunned, one of them was a seven fairies descending to the earth, even Wu Feng was stunned to see it. Venus, nosebleeds.
"Oh, if Xing has any different opinions, let's talk about it." Wu Feng smiled and his attitude was unusually gentle.
"First of all, judging from the opponent's underwater performance, the methods are roughly similar. Although the swim bladder airbags were found twice does not mean that they are a group of people, it is at least enough to prove that these people are all good players in the water, and the opponent is quite scheming. The previous wave of attacks was just a matter of chance. Needless to say, if it succeeded, it would paralyze us and make us think that there would be no more attacks that night. Using this mentality, they launched another attack in the second half of the night, and the force was much stronger than the first wave. There are many, and the chance of success is much higher. This is the enemy's cunning." Leng Ruoxing talked eloquently, his tone full of strong confidence.
"Zicai, what do you think?" Wu Feng did not express his position and turned to He Zicai, who had been sitting aside.
After hesitating for a moment, He Zicai said: "What both girls said makes sense, but we are not arguing about whether it is one group of people or two groups of people. The enemy will definitely not let it go, and the next attack will definitely be more violent and more powerful. It's dangerous, Wan Jianmen is just a small minion, there will definitely be big guys behind them, I think we have to come up with a perfect strategy to deal with it." He Zicai carefully avoided the focus of the two women's argument, one was your intelligence secretary He is also a lover, and judging from the emotion surging in the adult's eyes, it is probably that the relationship is not simple, and casual intervention will only cause unnecessary trouble, especially this kind of argument that has nothing to do with the overall situation.
"In addition, I'm afraid the soldiers and boatmen on the ship also need to be cleaned up. Even if it has no real effect, it can at least make the opponent's intelligence system dysfunctional." He Zicai added.
The waterway from Jincheng to Huanggang seemed particularly calm. Even on the Xiling Gorge Road with rapid water and dangerous shoals, there was no big trouble. However, almost everyone could smell the dark clouds behind this calmness. The less likely the enemy was to The sound and expression means that the attack once it comes will be more dangerous.
"Well, failed?" Only his back could be seen, standing motionless behind the desk.
"Well, sir, not only are the other party protected by many martial arts disciples, but they also have many waterway masters on board to protect them." The two men standing at the bottom lowered their heads respectfully and replied.
"Oh? Water channel master?" His back moved, probably feeling a little surprised, and he pondered for a moment before saying: "Isn't there no navy in the northwest? Where did Li Wufeng recruit water channel masters? He has only controlled Kansai for two or three months. Is it possible to train a navy army?"
"Sir, have you forgotten that Li Wufeng has a navy base on Baixiang Lake in Bonan? I'm afraid that Li Wufeng has long been determined to form his own navy." A man explained, and then questioned: "But from today Judging from the performance of the guys on the boat, they should all be veterans with more than ten years of experience on the water. It is unlikely that they were trained by Li Wufeng himself. Li Wufeng was not known where he was ten years ago. Could it be that other forces supported Li Wufeng? ?”
"You can't tell that this guy Li Wufeng has a lot of things hidden behind his back. He has even formed a naval army. No wonder we are defeated." The voice coming from behind didn't have any emotion at all, "What's your next step? What’s the plan?”
"Answer, we plan not to take action before Huanggang, and wait until we reach the Yueyang section to start again. It will be much easier for us to organize our forces there and we will have greater control."
"Well, you plan carefully. I won't interfere with your specific plans. But as I said above, I don't want to see Li Wufeng appear in the imperial capital, so you can do it yourself." The voice from behind also deepened, "If the mission fails, you are also aware of the consequences. In addition, The security department under Li Wufeng is not a vegetarian, and they must be careful not to let the news leak out. If you still need anything, you can ask it now."
"Sir, we want to equip more crossbows. If the sneak attack fails, we can take advantage of the situation to attack. The water on the Yueyang section of the water is stable, which is very suitable for launching an attack. As long as the front and rear warships are intercepted, Li Wufeng's boat can It’s much easier to break through with strength.”
"Well, this request can be met. I will arrange for someone to hand over fifty strong crossbows to you before Yueyang. You can arrange the manpower yourself. Pay attention to take it back after use." Crossbows are special military weapons. The use and possession of them by civilians is strictly prohibited and controlled. It is extremely strict, and illegal holders will be exiled to Kamchatka.
