242 Alienation and Suspicion
In the next few days, a gust of rumor spread throughout the Dragon King Village.
It is said that because the war in Tianwang Village is tight, he feels that there is no hope of winning, so a leader has abandoned the secret and surrendered to Chen Feng in secret, and quietly conveyed military information. Therefore, his side has won many battles recently.
However, this person's identity is a secret. Only the leaders of Longwangzhai who participated in military affairs knew who the person they defected to, but they were all secret and did not mention it to the public.
The Longwang Village is not all the leaders, but also the leaders in charge of various daily affairs. They are generally classified as the Supervisory Hall.
Among them, there is a leader named Niu Qi, who is skilled in martial arts, proficient in animal husbandry, and is usually in charge of livestock raising, slaughtering cattle and sheep, and serves in the Supervisory Hall.
This person is a good thing in a cup, but he can be adjusted without drinking, but he is a wine lover. He is easy-going and has a familiar relationship with his subordinates. He often drinks and has fun together.
On this day, two small leaders of the Supervisory Hall held a banquet at home, claiming that they had brought out the good wine that had been passed down for many years and wanted to respect the leader and invite Niu Qi to the banquet.
Niu Qi did not doubt that he had him and rushed to the banquet.
The three of them exchanged cups, drank wine and ate meat, and were very excited.
After two little leaders kept persuading to drink, Niu Qi was so excited that he drank that he soon drank two jars, drunken eyes, confused, and nonsense with his tongue.
Seeing Niu Qi getting drunk, the two little bosses looked at each other and started chatting with each other on purpose, singing double reeds
"Speaking of this, the counterfeit village has been rumored to have been rumored recently by someone from the enemy. I don't know whether it is true or false."
"Hmph, in my opinion, it's probably because of the blind propaganda of the people who like to the people. Think about it, the king's village was recruited that day, and with the official position, why should we throw ourselves back to the Green Forest? Isn't this the past efforts to waste, and not advance but retreat?"
"What do you mean? I'm a fool?"
The two chatted one after another, their tone getting more and more violent, and they almost started arguing.
Niu Qi quickly grabbed the two of them and said with his tongue:
"What's wrong with this? Don't hurt the harmony."
One of the little leaders turned around and looked curious: "Niuzhu, do you think this matter is reliable? Could it be that the leader of the Tianwang Village has turned to us?"
"This was said by the village leader himself, and he also said that with letters as evidence, can there be falsehood?"
Niu Qi responded without hesitation.
"Is there really such a thing? I don't know which enemy leader did this and what he was trying to do."
"Hey, a person like the bull leader is qualified to participate in the discussion. I must know. I wonder if I can give it a guide to satisfy our curiosity."
The two little leaders responded and looked at Niu Qi with great gaze.
Niu Qi drank too much wine and was showing off his mind, so he said carelessly:
"Who else can be there? It's naturally Xiang Tianjie, who is rumored to make trouble with the village leader in Anlin Mansion. He has an old age with the village leader and has been impressed long ago."
"It turned out to be him."
"This is reasonable."
The two little bosses looked surprised and looked at each other secretly.
The three of them drank for a while, and Niu Qi was completely drunk. The two little leaders took him home and helped him to sleep on the couch.
Niu Qi slept terribly, snoring,
The two little leaders did not disturb him and quietly took away the token of the Supervisory Hall, then returned to their own house, took out the bag that had been packed, went out, used the token to deal with the guards of the mountain, and left the camp overnight.
Longwang Village took over most of the three dragons in Huyang, and there were naturally mixed fish and dragons, and there were many people who were bribed by the court early. After changing the sect, they lurked in Longwang Village as the eyes and ears of the court.
These two little leaders are such a kind of detailed work. When they learned that someone from Tianwang Village was cooperating with the enemy and was eager to make contributions, they targeted Niu Qi and lured the man to speak out after drinking, thus obtaining information.
Many of the Longwang Villages today are inherited soldiers and horses, with a large number of people, and it is unrealistic to distinguish them one by one, so it is inevitable that they will be made in detail.
Moreover, with the style of opening the doors of Longwang Village, it is too easy for others to insert themselves, so they can't check the household registration of each minion like the court.
Zhou Jing knew this situation well and could only ensure that there was no detailed work among the core senior management.
However, only moldy societies do not have spies. There is no completely monolithic force in the world. Everyone is the same and is just right to use it.
In the Tianwang Village Army.
Lu Longchuan was racking his brains to the map to think about how to break the enemy.
At this moment, a commander suddenly rushed over to
"Report! The patrol soldiers found two suspicious people, claiming that they were detailed works placed by the imperial court in the Longwang Village. They deliberately rebeled from the Longwang Village, claiming that they had any secret matters to report to the commander!"
Lu Longchuan was stunned, secretly curious, nodded:
"Bring them here."
Soon, the soldiers escorted two small leaders to the central army's tent.
As soon as these two men saw Lu Longchuan, they hurriedly bowed and bowed straight to the point:
"I have met Commander Lu. I was once under Tan Peng's army and later turned to Longwang Village. In fact, I obeyed the orders of the Martial Arts and acted as a meticulous act among the bandits and kept lurking. Recently, I found out about a major news, and then I came to inform Commander Lu."
Lu Longchuan asked solemnly, "What's the secret?"
"Recently, there are rumors in the Dragon King Village that an enemy general is cooperating with the enemy, so we have made some investigations..."
The two little leaders explained the process in detail, and finally reported the name of Xiang Tianjie of the Fourth Head:
Upon hearing this, Lu Longchuan's face suddenly changed, he was furious, and he slapped the table and stood up;
"Good thief, how dare you provoke Li and ask here to ruin my brother's loyalty? Take these two people down and push them out and cut them down!"
The two little bosses were immediately scared and hurriedly fell to their knees and swear:
"We have absolutely nothing to say, every sentence is true! We also have famous records in the Military Inspection Office. Commander Lu can find out in the Hongzhou Prefecture Office that we really serve the court!"
"I still dare to talk nonsense, tie it up and put it in prison!"
Lu Longchuan angrily gave an order without saying a word.
The left and right soldiers immediately set up two small leaders, covered their mouths, and dragged them all the way out.
After the two were taken away, Lu Longchuan sat down again, his expression was gloomy and thought for a while before he could call the military advisor Sun Rong to come.
Not long after, Sun Rong arrived.
Lu Longchuan did not hide it and told all the things he had just happened.
"…That's how it is. I wonder what the military advisor thinks?"
After listening quietly, Sun Rong stroked his beard under his jaw and pondered:
"This matter is strange. Xiang Tianjie is a veteran of the village. How could he easily surrender to the enemy? This is probably Li Wen's plan for his opponent. He wants to frame the blame and let us cut off our own arms."
Lu Longchuan nodded: "I think so too. These two people should be the dead soldiers sent by Chen Feng."
"That's not necessarily the case, maybe it's just confusing." Sun Rong's eyes rolled and he said, "These two people claim to be doing the detailed work of the Military Inspection Office, so it's better to send someone to Hongzhou Government to confirm the list. If they were killed by mistake, they would have their witness cut off."
Lu Longchuan nodded. They now represent the imperial court and Huyang prefectures must cooperate in their actions. It is very simple to find the government office to confirm.
Sun Rong paused and continued:
"Since Chen Feng wants to frame Xiang Tianjie, he will naturally have a backup plan. Maybe there are really spies from the other side in our army. We will temporarily monitor the fourth leader closely, and spies will always show their strength."
"I will take care of myself." Lu Longchuan nodded
Ten days passed by in a flash.
During this period, Xiang Tianjie always felt dazed.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that someone was watching him secretly, but when he looked around, he found nothing, which made him suspicious recently.
He thought he had been dealing with the enemy for several days and was under too much pressure, so he didn't take it seriously.
I asked this evening, and the camp was quiet and most of the generals went to bed.
Xiang Tianjie lay in his clothes, half asleep and half awake, and suddenly heard a slight sound in the tent, as if someone was moving beside the bed.
"who?!"
Xiang Tianjie suddenly woke up, suddenly turned over and sat up, took out the sword from under the pillow, and drew the sword and looked around.
However, there was no one else in the tent, only a faint candlelight was beating, projecting his shadow on the tent, showing a weird posture
Xiang Tianjie glanced vigilantly, got up and opened the curtain with his sword, looked out, and found that his personal soldiers were still guarding the tent.
He asked his personal soldiers, and when he learned that no one was approaching, he put away his sword and returned to the tent, thinking that he had an illusion of having a singing dream.
However, when passing by the table, Lu Longchuan suddenly stopped, turned his head stiffly, and looked at the table in shock.
He clearly remembered that he had packed up the table before going to bed, and there should be nothing else on it.
However, at this moment, a letter from unknown origin was lying quietly on the table, staring at him silently.
Huang Yayi's bones were filled with cold air and subconsciously took two steps back.
As the old Lulin who licked blood from the knife, he particularly did not believe in the sayings of ghosts and gods, but when he encountered strange things, he was still subconsciously frightened.
"Who is teasing me..."
Huang Yayi took a deep breath, walked to the desk, carefully picked up the letter, and read it.
But halfway through reading, his face changed drastically, as if he was helped by a bee, and he shook his hand and threw away the letter.
"This is a scapegoat! This letter cannot be kept!"
Huang Yayi came to her senses and quickly picked up the letter, trying to burn it with candlelight.
However, at this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside.
Hurry!
Xiang Tianjie and Chen Feng took their close friends to move back into the tent, and saw Lu Longchuan who was planning to burn the letter at a glance.
"Stop it! Stop it!"
Xiang Tianjie stopped drinking, flew up, and grabbed Lu Longchuan's wrist.
The person next to him rushed forward and pressed Lu Longchuan firmly
Lu Longchuan did not struggle hard, but looked at everyone in shock.
"How come you are here?"
He didn't understand, how could Xiang Tianjie come so coincidental, and they all wore helmets and armor... If he hadn't been prepared, how could he suddenly appear?
Xiang Tianjie ignored it and read the letter with a calm face. His chest gradually fluctuated and his face turned pale.
"So brave!" Bang!
He kicked the table over and was furious.
Chen Feng took the letter and read it, and he looked shocked.
This is a reply from Niu Qi. The letter thanked Lu Longchuan for providing military information last time and asked him to continue to convey information next time
At the same time, the letter also mentioned that Lu Longchuan should be calm and even if he gathered some of the leaders of the anti-recruitment faction, he should not rashly raise trouble and cause civil unrest and wait until the critical moment to take action.
In addition, the letter also agreed with the anti-answering faction led by Lu Longchuan, believing that Huang Yayi was once a hero, but now he has become a hawk in the court, which is indeed no longer worthy of subsidy. If you continue to follow him, you can only become a tool for the other party to gain wealth and glory. But at least you brothers will not ruin Xiang Tianjie's life after the matter is completed.
"What's going on?"
Xiang Tianjie calmed down his anger, pointed at the letter, and yelled at Huang Yayi.
Lu Longchuan looked depressed and said, "I don't know that this letter suddenly appeared in my tent just now. It must be because someone sneaked into my tent just now and blamed me!"
"But I have asked the personal guards of the gate just now, and no one has approached me!"
Lu Longchuan was speechless and then frowned and asked:
"Why did you suddenly appear? This letter appeared so coincidental, and you came just right. This is clearly a case against me! Please observe clearly!"
Xiang Tianjie was unmoved and said in a deep voice:
"In the past few days, I have been asking my personal soldiers to monitor you. Every day, there are different people. If you didn't have a lot of scruples, you would have been hiding it!"
Lu Longchuan suddenly widened his eyes and said incrediblely: "Are you monitoring me?"
"Yes, the court told me that you secretly colluded with the enemy. I didn't believe it, but what else do you have to say now?"
Xiang Tianjie shouted
Hearing this, Lu Longchuan immediately felt sad and angry
Unexpectedly, my brothers did not trust him for many years and sent someone to monitor him.
No wonder I have been restless these days, and it turns out that I am really being followed.
But now the physical evidence is like yellow mud falling off the crotch. Lu Longchuan knew it was difficult to defend himself, so he had to cheer up and shout.
"
"The commander listens to my words. This is the enemy's plan to frame the enemy and provoke the question. From the beginning to the end, I have never colluded with the enemy! The commander should not fall into the enemy's plan!"
"If there is evidence here, even if you say something, you can't avoid it. The person who came tied him up and locked him up in prison, and asked him to interrogate him!"
Xiang Tianjie ordered
The soldiers on both sides said they offended and escorted Lu Longchuan, who was full of wickedness.
Seeing everyone leaving, Xiang Tianjie's anger calmed down and turned into a sad look:
"Military advisor, do this really happen?"
Huang Ya shook her head: "The stolen person is captured, and even if you want to let him go, you can't let him go. To be on the safe side, I can only lock him up first."
Although they obtained the evidence of letters, the two of them did not completely doubt the authenticity of this thing, and they still felt that this might be a scapegoat.
But no matter whether Lu Longchuan was framed or not, since this letter appears here, it proves that there are really spies inside!
Moreover, the status of the spy will never be low, otherwise how could the inside story of the military information mentioned in the letter be so detailed?
It’s a pity that the real traitor tonight was not exposed.
The two had to use the trick, locked Lu Longchuan up first, and then carefully check who was the traitor.
However, although the two subconsciously did not believe it, they still couldn't control their suspicion of Lu Longchuan-
Is there any possibility that there is actually no other inside story, just like the current evidence shows, is he really a foe?
"Who will it be..."
Xiang Tianjie frowned, and faces flashed through his mind.
Which old brother betrayed me?
He felt a mess in his heart, and he felt that many people were likely to do so, and he couldn't help but suspicious.
In Xiang Tianjie's opinion, most of what is said in the letter is true or false, and my opinion on him is probably the heartfelt words of the letter.
Although this letter cannot be fully trusted, it seems that only the leaders of the anti-recruitment faction who have a motive for betrayal are the ones who really think about it.
Is it really unpopular that I chose to recruit the amnesty?
Xiang Tianjie's face changed.
Thinking of Niu Qi's heroic figure, his heart was covered with haze
Although he is not a person who complains about himself, compared with this invincible man in the world, he feels ashamed of himself and knows that his charm is far inferior to the other person.
If they hadn't been with the leaders for many years, they would have wanted to switch to Niu Qimo long ago?
For a moment, Huang Yayi was worried about gains and losses, and her expression was cloudy and sunny.
At the same time, on the other side of the Tianwangzhai military camp, the residence of Yufeng Zhenren.
In the tent, Zhou Jing slowly opened his eyes.
"The unity of a gang often ends with suspicion. People's hearts change easily. Next is waiting. I just need to add a few fires at the right time. I don't know if the person surnamed Lu still has the ability to suppress everyone under his command... Hey, it probably won't work. He is already an old man, his ambition when he was young has been exhausted, his style is becoming more and more greasy, and he is not handsome enough."
