Da Xie Yan's spies were very neat, and two days later, Feng Zhang received a lot of information about Li Jing's preparation to attack the pirates.

"After the one-eyed Jiao attacked Shamen Island and did not return, the rest of the troops had disappeared from the sea, and the people of our family over there in Toduli Town inquired and found out that the rest of the One-eyed Jiao had retreated into the depths of the old Iron Mountain in Iron Mountain Town, which was within the range of Duli Town. The news that Li Jing had was that the rest of the One-Eyed Jiao was hiding in the red sand reef in the sea between Duli Town and Qingnipu. ”

Feng Zhang was a little surprised, "You mean that the information Li Jing got was wrong, do you know where this news came from?" ”

"Sword Dance Pavilion!" Feng Xun smiled and said, "It is said that last time, Li Jing was the most powerful and able to block the raid of the One-Eyed Jiao, and it was also because the Sword Dance Pavilion sold them information at a large price. However, that information was not accurate, so although Li Jing held the island, he suffered heavy losses. The Gongsun Auntie of the Sword Dance Pavilion later promised to give Li Jing a free piece of information as compensation, and Li Jing asked her to provide a hiding place for the rest of the One-Eyed Jiao. ”

"It turned out to be them, although Aunt Gongsun has not been here for a long time, but it is not a secret that they sell intelligence. It's just that why did Aunt Gongsun give Li Jing the wrong situation, the information last time was only half right, and the situation given this time is also not right, that red sand reef was just a temporary stronghold of One-Eyed Jiao before, and now there is no one at all, are they really wrong in intelligence collection, or is it intentional? ”

"I guess it may be that the information is not grasped in time, although the Sword Dance Pavilion sells news, but it is only limited to general information. For example, if this kind of intelligence is far away in the vast sea, it is possible that they will not grasp it in time. ”

"What is the movement on Li Jing's side, is it a real fight or just a bluff?"

"I guess it's really going to be done." Feng Xundao, "Shamen Town is mobilizing soldiers and horses. It is reported by the wire. Li Jing has mobilized thousands of people. In addition to the soldiers registered in Shamen Town, it also includes the family members of Li Jing and other officers, as well as some temporarily recruited crew sailors, as well as the soldiers of Shamen Town. In addition, the town of Salmon is refitting their ships these days, adding cannons, ballistas, etc. ”

A thousand people, Feng Zhang sneered in his heart. Defending the island and fighting at sea are two different things, Li Jing annihilated the one-eyed Jiao last time. But if you can't see it, you can destroy the rest of the one-eyed Jiao. Feng Zhang had a can't help but have an impulse, if he waited for Li Jing to go to sea, and immediately let Wu Qian's fleet at sea ambush Li Jing's poor merchant ship converted fleet, wouldn't it be a great opportunity to solve Li Jing's nasty thorn in the side in one fell swoop?

Calm down, Feng Chang reminded himself in his heart. It's easy to take out Li Jing's fleet, but the key is still in the aftermath. Li Jing is just a minor trouble after all, and the key ones are still Song Wen and others in Dengzhou. Let's hand it over to Wang Jin, last time he robbed Li Jing's batch of ordnance in an attempt to blame Wang Jin. wants Wang Jin to come out first and fight with Li Jing. But the damn Empress Li Jing didn't react at all, and retreated shamefully. In vain let him work hard. robbed that batch of ordnance, and as a result, it was sent to Cat Island and let people break through Cat Island, but the batch of goods was gone before it was sold, and it was busy.

"Did you send this news to the Wang family?" Feng Zhang asked.

"I sent the news over early in the morning," Feng Xun replied, "The Wang family sent Liu Qi here, and he is now in the living room, do you want to call him in." ”

For such an important matter, why did the Wang family send Liu Qi over, he was beaten half to death by Li Jing last time, and now he has recovered? Feng Zhang didn't understand the reaction of the Wang family, Wang Jinchong was very impulsive in the past, and he was often secretly used by him. Wang Jin has the reputation of a sailor in vain, but his strength is far inferior to that of him, a general on the island. But since Wang Jingwen came, many of Wang Jin's performances have been a little incomprehensible. Especially the relationship between Wang Jin and Li Jing before became more and more wonderful.

"You go to see Liu Qi on my behalf and see what he means."

Feng Xun discussed with Feng Zhang for a while, then exited the study, straightened his clothes and walked into the hall.

"Oh, Liu Qilang, what a rare guest, I haven't seen you for a long time. Have your body bones recovered, and you have just recovered from a major injury, so it's better not to work too much. ”

Hearing about the injury, Liu Qi's eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, and he said briefly: "Thank you Feng Dalang for your concern, my body is fine." ”

"That's wonderful!" Feng Xun chuckled and said, with an eager expression on his face, "Butler, let people have a charcoal basin again, it's still cold this day, Liu Qilang's injury is just healing, you can't let your bones be cold." Liu Qilang, how about we have a drink first, I have the most expensive Wuliangye wine sold in Dengzhou now, this wine is a fairy in wine. Now Dengzhou is priceless, and it is difficult to find a jar. ”

"No!" Liu Qi said coldly: "I came here this time to have something important to do, not to drink." ”

Feng Xun looked at Liu Qi's unbeaten face, and wanted to kick him out of the door. However, he still said with a strong smile: "Serious things are important, it's okay, talk about business first, then talk about Fengyue, and taste the wine." ”

"You Yi asked me to come and reply to General Feng, General Li Jing of Shamen Town is a rare good general and talent in the imperial court, and he is also an excellent descendant of the Ziqing border army. For such talents, General Wang and others need to take more care. When Liu Qi said this, there was a slight sneer on the corner of his mouth, as if he was about to see Feng Xun's joke. It is unforgivable that the One-Eyed Jiao dared to openly attack Shamen Town in the first place. Although the one-eyed Jiao is dead, the rest of the sins will also be cut down and eradicated. He asked me to tell General Feng that it was the responsibility of every border army soldier to exterminate the pirates, not to mention that Shamen Town was still under General Feng's command. ”

"I've sent a fleet to hunt down pirates!" Feng Xun didn't expect Wang Jin to reply like this, and his face couldn't help but turn cold.

"General Li Jing found out about the remnants of the one-eyed Jiao and asked General Feng to send troops, which is in line with the rules, and General Feng should send people to support him no matter what. But on the other hand, this is a matter of Da Xie Yan's internal affairs, and I will not dare to interfere with it. Liu Qi said with a smug smile on his face.

"Is this General Wang's decision? Aren't Dengzhou Sailors and Da Xie Yan sharing weal and woe? Aren't the Wang family and the Feng family friendly? Feng Xun was angry and asked in a suppressed voice.

Liu Qi smiled coldly: "Last time, Feng Liulang pulled me from Da Xie Yan to Shamen Island in a hurry, I'm afraid this matter is not such a coincidence." And also. Some time ago. A batch of goods and ships sent by Song Wen to Li Jing suddenly disappeared on the sea surface of my Dengzhou sailor's territory, and I am afraid that there is something else behind this matter. Deputy Feng Soldier and Horse Envoy, don't talk to me in this tone, don't think that your Feng family is smart, thinking about calculating and using us everywhere. I warn you"

Feng Xun turned his face sideways and glared at Liu Qi angrily: "Don't warn me, boy, you're not qualified enough!" ”

"The Feng family is just a vassal of our royal family. Feng Dalang, don't forget. ”

As he spoke, Liu Qi's hand pressed on the hilt of the sword wrapped in gold wire around his waist, and his face looked aggressive. It's a pity that his body is immersed in too much wine, and he looks a little thin and weak in front of Feng Xun's sturdy figure. Although the sword was pressed, it had no deterrent power.

Feng Xun sneered: "Be careful with your hands, don't misplace them." If people are misunderstood, the result is very serious. He looked at Liu Qi coldly, "I would like to remind you, your surname is Liu." It's not a member of the Wang family at all. ”

Liu Qi's face was swollen and red by Feng Xun's words, and he couldn't wait to draw his sword immediately. But he was looked at by Feng Xun, but the hand holding the sword was sour and soft.

"My Feng family may be a vassal of the Wang family, but you Liu Qi can only be regarded as a dog of the Wang family at most, do you think you are qualified to talk to me like this? Believe it or not, as soon as I waved, a team of guards rushed in and chopped you into pate. After you die, do you think the Wang family will punish me for you? ”

The expression on Liu Qi's face froze, sweat flowed down his forehead, and his voice finally trembled: "Da Lang, you won't really do this, right?" ”

"That's up to you, if you're still the same way you were, I'll chop you up and feed the dogs right away."

"I, I" Liu Qi stammered for a long time, and then cried and said with a sad face: "Da Lang, I'm here to talk, you just treat me as a fart." ”

Feng Xun looked at this gentleman with disdain, and said lightly: "Then I'll ask you a few questions, and you have to reply honestly." ”

"Da Lang, you say, I must know everything, and I must say everything."

"What was Wang Jin's reaction when he received the letter I sent?" Feng Xun asked.

Liu Qi said honestly: "I don't know what General Wang's reaction was after receiving the letter, but I heard that he summoned his subordinates to lead the captains, and then the meeting was halfway through, and the king of Dengzhou suddenly arrived, and then the meeting was dispersed, and General Wang asked me to reply." ”

Hearing this, Feng Xun originally had many questions he wanted to ask, and he didn't want to mention any of them. He said to Liu Qi with a blue face: "You know what happened today, I don't want the third person to know the Tao, do you understand?" ”

Liu Qi's face stiffened, nodded, and bowed out to leave.

Feng Xun didn't bother to pay attention to Liu Qi's departure at all, his mind was now full of Wang Jingwen. It's this old guy again, Wang Jin seems to have already gone on the road, but this old guy has made things worse again.

It seems that it is a little troublesome to provoke Wang to come and deal with Li Jing. What now? The Wang family refused to be fooled to deal with Li Jing, did they have to let them do this trick in the end? He couldn't make up his mind, so he finally went to Feng Zhang's study to inquire in person.

"Wang Jingwen, this old fox is not simple, he has been disturbed by several things, it is estimated that this old boy has already been wary of us. Forget it, that's it. Feng Zhangdao.

"Do you want to let Li Jing go like this?" Feng Xun said a little anxiously, "This is the best chance to kill Li Jing, even if Li Jing doesn't personally lead the troops to the sea, but if we can sink all the people who go to sea to the bottom of the sea, what will Li Jing do to fight us in the future?" ”

"It's not that simple, it affects the whole body. Our family has a big business, not a barefoot farmer like Li Jing. Although Liu Qi's words are ugly, there is one sentence that is true, our Feng family is beautiful on the surface, but in fact it is a vassal of the Wang family. If the Wang family is unwilling to move Li Jing now, then why should we rush so much? After a pause, Feng Zhang took off the hairpin on his head and scratched his head, "But this matter can't be let go of Li Jing so easily, you send a boat to send a message to Wu Qian, and ask him to send someone to Lao Tie Mountain, send a message to the pirates, and tell them that Li Jing is going to encircle and suppress them." ‘

"Uncle means to use the hands of pirates to deal with Li Jing? I'm afraid that these remnants of pirates are not Li Jing's opponents? Wouldn't it be better to let Captain Wu and the pirates join forces and simply destroy Li Jing, and then say that the pirates took revenge and ambushed Li Jing? ”

"Forget it, let the pirates play, it's good to win, but if you lose, you can also take the opportunity to consume a little bit of Li Jing's strength. Let's not get involved anymore, there is no impermeable wall in the world, as long as we do it, there will definitely be people who will know the Tao in the end, for the sake of Li Jing, a little pawn, there is no need to take such a big risk. Feng Zhang put the hairpin back on his head and chuckled: "Besides, Li Jing casually got a few fishing boats, a few fishermen, and pulled a few teams of soldiers on the boat, so he dared to claim that he was also a sea fleet?" It's a joke, no matter how bad the pirates are, they are better than Li Jing's fleet. Li Jing really thought that he had fought two battles, and after killing some pirates, he really thought that he was a master of the art of war? This sea march and battle is not something that can be played casually, let's sit back and watch the wind and clouds, maybe, it is possible that those pirates will directly drive Li Jing and them off the boat to feed the fish. ”

"I hope so!" Feng Xun smiled a little reluctantly, always feeling that his uncle seemed to be really old. Think that when he first started to follow him before, how could he have been so timid and scrupulous now? He always felt that this was a great opportunity to pull out the nail of Salmon Town, but unfortunately his uncle didn't seem to see it.

Returning to his deputy envoy's mansion, Feng Xun took out his pen and ink and began to write a letter to Wu Qian. He wrote the letter according to Feng Zhang's consciousness, and when the ink dried, he carefully read it several times. Later, when he was about to pack it, he suddenly tore the letter again. He laid a piece of letter paper on the table again, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, and wrote another letter.

It's also written to the Sea Fleet, but this time it's my brother Rokuro on the letterhead. This letter was not written to Wu Qian, the commander of the fleet, but to the military position of the Marquis of Duyu, who was actually a supervisor of the army. The content of the letter is also very different from the previous one, although on the surface, this letter is still to tell Feng Ming that Li Jing is about to go to suppress the bandits, but between the lines, it all reveals another meaning.

After the letter was written, Feng Xun read it carefully twice, and finally showed a satisfied smile on his face. He took a long breath, sprinkled some incense ash on the undried ink, folded the letter, put it in an envelope, sealed it with fire paint, called one of his henchmen, and gave it to him.

"Bring the letter, go to sea immediately to catch up with the fleet, and be sure to hand over the letter to Rokuro in person!" (To be continued.) )
