Astral Apostle

Chapter 243: 243 Gong Huo and my way are not alone

Views:

Xiang Tianjie, as the fourth head of the family, had a high status and commanded a group of soldiers and horses.

On the second day, he was absent from the military meeting, which attracted attention, and soon other leaders asked curiously.

Lu Longchuan said that Xiang Tianjie violated the military order, so he was detained for the time being, but he did not mention the specific guilt, which caused the leaders to be puzzled and questioned endlessly.

No matter what, Lu Longchuan had no choice but to act arbitrarily once, showing the attitude of being a big boss, saying that he must be justified in his actions, and bringing out the current reasons of the enemy, so that everyone should not be distracted.

In the end, the military discussion broke up unhappily, and the leaders had to leave with full of doubts.

Lu Longchuan is also difficult to deal with. After all, Xiang Tianjie is a veteran of the cottage and has a good reputation. If it is said that he is collaborating with the enemy, the impact will be even more unfavorable, causing people to fluctuate, and it is still uncertain whether Xiang Tianjie has been framed.

But even if it is not said, when the two armies are at war, it is also a taboo to imprison one's generals for no reason, and it will still cause people to panic.

He could only decide between choices, and he hated the traitor deeply in his heart, only to feel that whatever he did, he would fall into the arms of his opponent, and he was successfully alienated.

In order to find out the traitor, Lu Longchuan asked people to pay close attention to the movements of the leaders. He believed that if Xiang Tianjie was really framed, the real traitor would probably re-communicate with the enemy and report the matter, so he might reveal his fault.

On the other hand, he asked Xiang Tianjie to be interrogated in detail. If he could ask something, it would be great... It's just that because of the old feelings, it is not good to punish Xiang Tianjie, so the interrogation basically did not progress.

For the next period of time, Lu Longchuan has been doing this, but it has always been fruitless, causing him to become more and more suspicious, seeing everyone as a spy.

At the same time, his main energy must also be placed on responding to the waves of offensives from Longwangzhai, and he feels more and more exhausted and exhausted.

And because Xiang Tianjie has not been released for many days, coupled with the signs of internal investigation, the leaders of Tianwangzhai have become more and more panic, and they don't know what Lu Longchuan means.

Sun Rong saw that this was not the way to go, so he made suggestions, saying that the screening method could be used, and a group of leaders could be called separately for military discussions, giving different military information, and looking at the movements after Longwangzhai, he would know which group of people leaked. information.

Lu Longchuan felt that this method was good, so he followed suit.

However, the result was unsatisfactory. Longwangzhai didn't do anything else at all, just as usual, he kept attacking.

Lu Longchuan had to wonder if Xiang Tianjie was really the spy, who was arrested so no one could pass on military information to the enemy.

Or the real spies have dived deep and are quietly watching.

Repeated unsuccessful attempts made Lu Longchuan even more anxious and irritable.

At night, in jail.

Xiang Tianjie sat in the corner, wearing only a single shirt, his hair was disheveled, his face was unkempt, and his face could not hide a tired look.

Although he was imprisoned, he was not subjected to much embarrassment, so he was not wearing a shackle.

It's just that the interrogation and interrogation in the past few days made him exhausted.

During this time, Xiang Tianjie had calmed down and knew that he had been framed, which meant that there were indeed spies inside, and he was a person of high status.

He is also analyzing himself, who is likely to betray everyone, thinking over and over again, but he still has no clue.

What he can't understand is why there are old brothers who cooperate with the enemy, do you really think that their Tianwangzhai is not good? Why on earth would it cause someone to be detached

There is no external disturbance for the time being, but Xiang Tianjie has the opportunity to calm down and reflect on the changes in the past few years.

When I voted for Tianwangzhai, I was infected by the loyalty of Lvlin. Together, they wanted to do a big job and did not mediocre all their lives.

But now, he has become a hawk dog of the imperial court, turning his gun on the former Green Forest comrade, and fighting for the imperial court in all directions... Is this really what I wanted at the beginning

Although the older you get, the more secular you become, the less you can go back to the past... But even if you are recruited, the benefits are not much, and you just work for the court.

And Lu Longchuan has changed a lot compared to when he was young. Although Xiang Tianjie cared about his old feelings, he had to admit that many of Lu Longchuan's words and deeds over the years did not meet his expectations.

"Perhaps... the old brother who betrayed everyone thinks that Commander Lu is no longer worthy of serving... That Chen Feng is an unparalleled hero and can attract people to defect, but it is not surprising."

Xiang Tianjie sighed secretly, with mixed feelings.

In the past, it was their Tianwangzhai that had such a charm, but now, it was someone else's turn to attract the world's heroes.

He sighed to himself, feeling helpless to be replaced by future generations.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise of pushing and shoving outside the cell.

Not long after, a few figures strode in, and the guards who were guarding the prison helplessly followed him, trying to discourage him with bitter words.

Xiang Tianjie took a closer look, but a few familiar leaders came.

"Brother, we see you!"

Several leaders came to the cell and shouted.

Xiang Tianjie looked shocked: "Why are you here?"

He was held tightly, and no one was allowed to visit him, and he was the first to break in.

Xiang Tianjie hurriedly got up and came to the door of the prison. He saw several people with blushing faces and thick necks, and smelled a strong smell of alcohol on their noses, and immediately panicked:

"Ah, how many brothers have been drinking? This is against the military order, hurry up and leave, don't make any mistakes!"

Several leaders didn't care, and even yelled:

"Going to his grandma's military order, is it possible that he was recruited and became a bird officer, so he won't even drink alcohol?"

"That's right! My brother was detained for no reason. Brothers are not happy. How can you relieve your anger if you don't drink!"

The imperial army was generally not allowed to drink alcohol when marching and fighting, so as not to make mistakes after drinking, but it was banned repeatedly in Tianwangzhai.

Biquge

After all, all the leaders are old green forests who are used to being free and comfortable. Although most of them can distinguish their priorities, they are not allowed to drink at all, which is really unpopular, and there are always people drinking secretly.

Xiang Tianjie was helpless and had no choice but to say: "What are you doing in the prison, I'm fine here, you go back quickly and ask Commander Lu to apologize."

Hearing this, several people shook their heads and said:

"No! We broke in today, just to ask clearly why Commander Lu imprisoned my brother. If there is no more explanation, the brothers will not obey!"

"That's it!"

Xiang Tianjie was both moved and helpless, so he could only say: "Someone forged letters and framed me for collaborating with the enemy. Commander Lu has a reason for shutting me down."

Several people were stunned for a moment, and then became furious:

"Fart, my brother is a veteran of the cottage, and he has worked hard and made great achievements. How can he rebel against the enemy?!"

"After thinking about this for a while, I know there is a fraud. Why does Commander Lu distrust my brother so much?"

Hearing this, Xiang Tianjie was speechless, and he was also resentful about it.

Although he can understand Lu Longchuan's actions, he has been saddling for many years for the cottage, and Lu Longchuan will still wrong him for this small trick, and he must be unhappy in his heart.

Several of the leaders became more and more angry, and with the strength of the wine, they shouted:

"Commander Lu is really becoming more and more useless as he gets older. In the past, he was servile to the dog officials and treacherous officials, and later he was in the middle of accusing the elders of the cottage. It's so unhelpful, how can he still look like a king? I think that Chen Feng said it right, but he is actually Become a greedy villain!"

As soon as the voice fell, a roar suddenly came from not far away.

"presumptuous!"

I saw Lu Longchuan hurriedly arrived with his personal soldiers, his face was ashen, and he was very angry.

Behind him, there were many leaders who heard the commotion and rushed over, confused.

Lu Longchuan's face was sinking like water, he glared at several people present, and shouted:

"You are not only greedy for cups and mistakes, but you also trespassed in prison to visit repeat offenders privately. It is a child's play to be the commander's military order!"

However, someone grabbed his neck and retorted:

"Why did the eldest brother wronged the fourth master, saying that he cooperated with the enemy and rebelled, and was not afraid of ruining the loyalty of the brothers?"

Hearing this, many leaders who didn't understand the inside story were suddenly shocked.

Lu Longchuan's face was full of irritability, and he didn't want to talk, and shouted again:

"I have my own concerns about this matter. You don't need to worry about it. After drinking a few cups of horse urine, you will be embarrassed, talk nonsense, and ram the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

Seeing this, Xiang Tianjie also persuaded a few familiar leaders: "Listen to the commander, don't act impulsively, it will ruin the commander's majesty."

However, several people did not bow their heads, and instead confronted Lu Longchuan.

Just when Lu Longchuan was furious and was about to call his own soldiers to take down a few people, one of them suddenly took out a letter from his arms and shouted:

"Commander Lu, I have a letter here, and I hope you can explain it."

"What letter?"

Lu Longchuan was startled.

This person held the letter high, showed it to everyone present, and said loudly:

"This letter has the official seal and is a secret letter from the imperial court. Everyone knows that we have been asking the imperial court for help during this period of time. Every time the government sends a messenger to reply to the letter, saying that giving money and food is not giving reinforcements to appease the crap. I wait.

But two days ago, I was entertaining a court messenger, and I happened to see this letter while he was drunk. This secret letter was originally presented to Commander Lu in private by the court, and it was written with a shocking secret, so I stole it secretly! "

As soon as this statement came out, it immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.

"What did the letter say?" Another leader immediately asked.

Hearing this, the man opened the letter and read it aloud.

This letter was written in the name of the imperial court, and the general content was to appreciate Lu Longchuan's commander-in-chief, saying that as long as he continued to lose both sides with Longwangzhai as agreed, he would follow the agreement and give him the promised official reward when he returned to Beijing.

At the same time, he also urged Lu Longchuan not to hesitate any longer. As mentioned before, he used the lives of some of the leaders as bait to set up a trap to deceive Chen Feng, so as to get rid of this harm once and for all.

In order to show the evidence, the court also considered it from the perspective of Lu Longchuan, saying that there are many leaders in Tianwangzhai, good and bad, and they have all been rewarded, which will hinder the court's face. If you use the lives of these useless people to get rid of the serious troubles of the court, you will die for what you want.

After hearing this, many leaders burst into an uproar.

If the content of the letter is true, wouldn't Lu Longchuan want to use the lives of his brothers as a stepping stone to his promotion and fortune

"Ridiculous! I have never communicated with the court in private, this must be a forgery by thieves!"

Lu Longchuan was furious.

However, the man pointed at the letter and said without giving way: "Look carefully, this is the official seal of the imperial court, it cannot be faked!"

Many leaders hurried to look carefully, all recognized the official seal, and their faces changed for a while.

Lu Longchuan grabbed the letter, read it carefully, and defended angrily:

"This must be that Chen Feng's trick. He is making a fortune in Huyang, and the state government doesn't dare to provoke it. It's not easy to win the official seal? Don't you want to be deceived by him!"

But before everyone could respond, the leader who took out the letter retorted:

"Brother Xiang is also framed by hypocrisy, but you believe it easily. Why do you say that now?"

"Presumptuous! Absurd! You are here to sow discord and ruin our army. Could it be that you are collaborating with the enemy's spies? Come on, put them all in jail and wait for their punishment! Also arrest the imperial messenger for a clear trial. !"

Out of anger, Lu Longchuan tore the letter to pieces.

The soldiers on both sides looked at each other and had no choice but to obey.

These leaders did not resist, but shouted that the old men would go by themselves, threw off the arms of the personal soldiers, walked into the cell and sat down on their own, staring at Lu Longchuan angrily.

Lu Longchuan turned his head to look at the other leaders, his anger still lingering, and he shouted: "The thief's trickery is abominable, I have nothing to do with that Chen Feng, what are you still doing here, hurry back to the camp!"

Everyone pleaded guilty and retired. No matter what they thought, their faces returned to normal. It was only the occasional blinking eyes that could show their thoughts.

If it was put in the past, they would never believe this "secret letter from the imperial court".

But today's Lu Longchuan, in order to recruit security, is willing to be a servant of a current traitor like Qin Xiang...

This person has changed. He is no longer the Heavenly King who was invincible all over the green forest when he was young. He has become somewhat unknown to the brothers.

After this night's change, the leaders did not say anything, but in fact they had doubts in their hearts.

Inside Tianwangzhai, people's hearts are gradually floating, and this kind of change is also reflected on the battlefield. The more you think, the slower you start, and the more difficult it is to resist the offensive of Longwangzhai.

In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.

On this day, Longwangzhai came to attack again, and Chen Feng took the lead as usual.

Real Master Yufeng went out to fight as usual, the two sides fought for a while, and once again ended in a tie.

Zhou Jing, who got on Bill's body, fell back to the Tianwangzhai camp, nodding to Lu Longchuan and others:

"Fortunately not to be humiliated, that Chen Feng has been forced back by Pindao."

"Thank you for your help once again, I can't express my gratitude."

Lu Longchuan and others quickly thanked them.

Although there was a rift among the leaders at the moment, they still respected Master Yufeng.

The internal changes did not affect their attitude towards the real people. They knew that if the real people hadn't made repeated shots, they would have been cut down by Chen Feng to the point of crying.

Zhou Jing nodded, then went back to his tent, excused himself to meditate and adjusted his breath, and withdrew his disciples.

After a long time, near dusk, the sound of the drums beating outside gradually ceased, the two sides temporarily truce, and the Dragon King Village retreated again.

At this time, some soldiers brought dinner and sent it to Zhou Jing's tent as usual.

Although the conditions of marching and fighting were difficult, Master Yufeng always had the privilege and was served by others. Three meals a day were delivered to the door.

Zhou Jing stopped to meditate, and he was about to pick up vegetables, but suddenly he moved.

As a master of pharmacy, he was keenly aware of something unusual.

"Um?"

Zhou Jing raised his brows, and in order to avoid making a mistake, he simply reached out and held up one of the dishes.

The auxiliary item analysis function immediately displays the information of the item:

[Poisoned pickled vegetables boiled tofu]

[Type: Food, Poison]

[Introduction: It is recommended to discard the food bowl]

"Oh, someone actually poisoned me, and there are real traitors in the army?!"

Zhou Jing was shocked.

Good guy, I thought I was the only one inside the ghost, it turns out that my way is not alone!

"I don't know if the person who poisoned me was from Tianwangzhai, or he obeyed other forces, whether it was out of profit or personal vendetta... The scope of suspects is not large if he can manipulate the food for me."

Zhou Jing's eyes flickered.

There is one thing to say, this spy will grasp the main contradiction. If he can kill himself, then no one can resist Chen Feng, and Tianwangzhai will definitely lose.

At this moment, he suddenly had an idea.

I have already made a name for myself, staying here to continue fighting for a long time, there is no other benefit, and now there is a chance to send it to the door, it is better to come and count.
