Long Chen's secret letter stated that Zhenguo Temple had been breached and an attack on the hinterland of Xixia could be launched at any time. He asked Shen Wanjin to arrange assassins to prepare for Yuncheng.
Shen Wanjin was extremely surprised when he saw the secret letter.
He had been sending people to keep an eye on Long Chen and knew that Long Chen had gone to Jade Buddha Pass a few days ago.
But in just a few days, Long Chen actually succeeded.
"Long Chengen... succeeded at Jade Buddha Pass?"
Heifeng thought that Long Chen just won the battle at Jade Buddha Pass and didn't know the specific situation.
Shen Wanjin said: "This guy said that he captured Zhenguo Temple and asked us to send assassins to prepare to attack Yuncheng."
Heifeng said in surprise: "Zhenguo Temple has been captured? How is it possible? Zhenguo Temple was built by that old bald donkey Deshan like an iron barrel."
"How could Long Chengen capture Zhenguo Temple as soon as he arrived? What trick did he use?"
Wanjinlou has been paying close attention to the situation at Jade Buddha Pass. They all know how many soldiers and horses there are in Zhenguo Temple, who is the chief general, who is the deputy general, and how the defenses are.
Shen Wanjin and Heifeng discussed how to defeat Zhenguo Temple, and they concluded that Zhenguo Temple could only be breached at the cost of 100,000 casualties.
Moreover, these 100,000 soldiers and horses must be elite.
As soon as Long Chen arrived at Jade Buddha Pass, he attacked Zhenguo Temple, which was simply unbelievable.
Shen Wanjin put down the secret letter in his hand and asked, "Isn't there any news from Gan Xin and Yan Shuangyu?"
Gan Xin was Wanjinlou's daughter in Xixia and was responsible for the assassinations in Xixia.
After Shen Wanjin cooperated with Long Chen, Gan Xin continued to lurk without showing his face.
All the information from Xixia was sent back through Ganxin.
Yan Shuangyu was in Xifeng City and took over the business of Tianxiahui in Xifeng City.
Yan Shuangyu is responsible for collecting and delivering news near Jade Buddha Pass.
Heifeng shook his head and said: "It's not here yet, but it should be arriving soon."
The news about Long Chen has arrived, and the news about Gan Xin and Yan Shuangyu should also come.
Thump thump thump..
There was a sound of rapid footsteps, and a lean man with a pair of rat beards entered the room, holding two secret reports in his hand.
"Lord, secret letter from Gan Xin and Yan Shuangyu."
Heifeng received the secret letter and turned around to present it to Shen Wanjin.
After opening the secret letter, Shen Wanjin read it carefully, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and said: "This dead eunuch actually had an ambush early, and the old monk Deshan was killed in battle."
Heifeng stared at the secret message and asked: "There was an ambush already? When was the ambush?"
Deshan handed the secret letter to Heifeng and said: "This guy left a backup last year. Deshan was unlucky. He wanted to attack Jade Buddha Pass, but he didn't expect that he ran into Long Chengen's trap. It’s also fate.”
After Heifeng quickly read it, he couldn't believe it.
"Is this...what a coincidence?"
If Long Chen had not arrived at the Jade Buddha Pass, and if Deshan had not attacked the Jade Buddha Pass, nothing would have happened.
Zhenguo Temple is so strong that there shouldn't be any problems.
Shen Wanjin shook his head and sneered: "We are assassins, and we have seen too many coincidences."
"People, sometimes they just have bad luck, and it's not uncommon to choke to death when eating."
"What is a child of destiny? It is a person who is lucky and has some ability."
"Every time comes, heaven and earth work together, and the heroes are not free."
"Fortune is on Long Chengen's side, and he is the son of destiny."
Luck is also a part of strength, and sometimes it is the key part.
Shen Wanjin has seen too many people who were unlucky and happened to be killed.
Heifeng said: "But...will Long Chengen immediately attack the hinterland of Xixia? I read their secret letter saying that Long Chengen is holding on to the Zhenguo Temple and waiting for Shi Le to attack."
"Do we need to send assassins immediately to cooperate with Long Chengen's actions? Or should we wait a little longer?"
Shen Wanjin shook his head and said: "Long Chengen's best strategy is to stick to Zhenguo Temple. Shi Le and Long Chengen will definitely have a big battle. With the help of the strong fortifications of Zhenguo Temple, Long Chengen can have an absolute advantage."
"We don't know when he will attack the hinterland of Xixia, but the assassins have to go there immediately. The most important thing in using troops is speed. He can't wait for us."
"You send out assassins immediately. This time you choose good people and use them all as elites!"
Heifeng was a little surprised and asked: "Lord, do we need to work hard for Long Chengen?"
It would be good to send out assassins, but to actually send out elites, Heifeng felt that it was not worth it.
Shen Wanjin shook his head slightly and said, "No, it's worth it. Our business depends on him."
"Besides, I think this guy really has the blessing of destiny, and the destruction of Xixia is just around the corner."
"As long as Xixia is destroyed, the national power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will increase dramatically, and it will be comparable to that of the Southern Liang Bozhong."
"When the time comes, when this guy sends his troops south, the world may really be unified."
"We have to help him properly. It's good to accumulate some favors."
Heifeng understood that Shen Wanjin was interested in the future.
When the world is unified, if the relationship between Wanjinlou and Long Chen is good, various benefits will continue to flow.
"My subordinate understands and will make arrangements."
Black Wind immediately went to choose someone.
Through the window, Shen Wanjin looked at the black roofs. The capital was prosperous and the life of the rich was so comfortable.
Compared to the previous days of hiding in Tibet and committing assassinations, he gradually fell in love with the life of a wealthy man.
If Long Chen really dominates the world, he will spend a lot of money to climb up the dragon and attach himself to the phoenix, and his future life will be more comfortable.
Spreading out a piece of paper, pressing the corners with a piece of Western Region mutton-fat jade, Shen Wanjin took up his pen and wrote three words: Lucky Order!
After writing the letter, he put away the brush and blew lightly. When the ink was dry, Shen Wanjin sealed it carefully.
"Shihan!"
Shen Wanjin shouted, and the lean man with a rat's beard came in and said, "Master."
Shen Wanjin threw the secret letter to Shi Han and said, "Give it to Yan Shuangyu!"
Shihan caught the secret letter and turned around and left the attic.
He Juntao came out of Rugui Inn and immediately returned to Prince Wu's Mansion.
After a brief tidying up, she and Zhang Qian immediately took their things and two horses each, and galloped out of the west city gate to the Jade Buddha Pass.
...
Linglong Pavilion.
Gongsun Linglong and Di Lingyi are training the Thunder Fire Legion in the back mountain.
The musketeers now cooperate very well. One team is shooting, the other is preparing, and the other is loading.
There was a crackle and explosion, and the target was accurately hit.
Di Lingyi said: "After practicing for so long, I think it's almost done. I don't know how Long Chengen is doing at Jade Buddha Pass."
Gongsun Linglong said: "Let's wait for him to notify us. He said he would tell us if there is a war."
Just as he was talking, Yingfeng rushed down at extremely fast speed and shouted: "Princess, the Holy One calls you back to the palace."
Seeing Yingfeng, both of them were surprised.
"Why are you here? What happened?"
Di Lingyi turned around and greeted him.
Yingfeng said: "King Wu has started a war at Jade Buddha Pass. The Holy Lord has asked you to enter the palace and prepare to go south to guard with the four princesses."
Emperor Lingyi heard that Long Chen started fighting at Jade Buddha Pass, and quickly asked: "How was it? How was the fight?"
Gongsun Linglong was also worried and waited for Yingfeng to speak.
"A great victory. King Wu captured the Zhenguo Temple and killed Deshan. He killed 90,000 enemies and captured 80,000. We lost less than 10,000."
Emperor Lingyi said happily: "Well done! Let's go back!"
Emperor Lingyi pulled Yingfeng up the mountain, and Gongsun Linglong chased after him, asking anxiously: "What about me? Didn't the Holy One let me go?"
Yingfeng stopped and said, "No, the Holy Master only said that the three princesses should return to the palace to discuss."
Gongsun Linglong was a little disappointed and asked again: "Then... King Wu didn't ask me to go to Jade Buddha Pass?"
Yingfeng shook his head and said, "No."
Gongsun Linglong sighed and said, "Okay."
Yingfeng saw Gongsun Linglong's disappointment and said: "Linglong, don't worry, you have the strongest army in your hands. King Wu will definitely come for you, just wait."
Gongsun Linglong thought about it. With the Thunder and Fire Legion in her hands, Long Chen would look for her sooner or later.
Yingfeng and Di Lingyi immediately went down the mountain and returned to the palace.
