The duel between masters often lasts for a long time, and no one will act rashly. Once a move is made, it means an attack, but it also means a vulnerability.
The stalemate between Jiangnan and Donghai has lasted long enough. It seems that Jiangnan has no patience to waste it any longer and has decided to take action.
After all, they were not doing things secretly, and the manpower they sent out was actually intercepted by Li Xingzai's people.
After receiving the news, Li Xingzai immediately ordered people to bring the captured prisoners for interrogation in person.
Su Fen was shackled and taken to the city lord's palace. When he saw Li Xingzai, he immediately knelt down and prayed for mercy.
Li Xingzai waved his hands impatiently.
"Hey, His Majesty Donghai is the one doing this. Now His Majesty has something to ask you. If you know anything, tell me. If you dare to hide something, you will definitely know how life is worse than death." Xu Wentian, who was standing behind Li Xingzai, shouted.
"Yes, yes, your majesty has mercy. If I know something, I will never hide it."
Li Xingzai cleared his throat, stared at Su Fen thoughtfully, and said, "Have I seen you somewhere?"
"The villain's name is Su Fen. He once fell into the crocodile village and had a nickname: Ghost Head Jiao."
"It turns out to be a bandit, no wonder he looks familiar."
Li Xingzai said softly, but Guitoujiao couldn't understand the meaning of his words. Li Xingzai asked again: "Then why are you working for Li Xing now?"
"I used to work in the Crocodile Village, eating a lot of meat and drinking a lot of wine, and lived a happy life. Later, I came to the Water Thief with my husband, and I followed my husband and joined Jiangnan."
Li Xingzai nodded. It turned out to be the person he brought out. He should not be underestimated and should not be deceived by his appearance.
Li Xingzai cheered up and said, "What are you going to do when you cross the river this time?"
Ghost-headed Jiao said: "Your Majesty, I, under the orders of Marshal Hong, crossed the river to contact the princes in the north, and launched a joint attack to attack the East China Sea."
"Hey." Li Xingzai suddenly shouted and said, "You are talking nonsense. Do you think I am easy to fool?"
The ghost-headed dragon was startled. He didn't know why Li Xingzai suddenly became angry. He touched his head to the ground and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Everything I said is true. I dare not deceive Your Majesty."
Li Xingzai snorted coldly: "What kind of status do you have? You just joined Jiangnan not long ago. How could such a big responsibility fall on you?"
"Your Majesty does not know. It was Mr. He who came up with the idea to contact the princes in the north. Marshal Hong asked Mr. He for someone. Mr. He had no one to send, so he picked up the villain and went out."
"This ghost idea comes from He Chu again..." Li Xingzai gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart. This man showed no mercy to Donghai.
"Why did you contact the northern princes after you crossed the river?"
"Your Majesty, I have some letters written by Marshal Hong on my body, and they have the royal seal of Jiangnan on them. Of course, these letters have been searched by your Majesty's people now."
Li Xingzai had already read these letters and brought Gui Tou Jiao up, first to confirm the matter and to see what kind of person Gui Tou Jiao was.
After asking some more details to make sure he was not lying, Li Xingzai waved his hand and asked someone to take him down.
The ghost-headed dragon thought that he was going to be taken down and beheaded, and he kept shouting for mercy. It could be said that he was so frightened that he peed his pants.
Li Xingzai was speechless for a while, wondering how a clever and clever person could lead such subordinates.
What he didn't know was that he and this ghost-headed dragon hadn't been together for long, and the two sides were mostly taking advantage of each other.
After getting the news, Li Xingzai thought secretly in his heart. It must be said that He had contributed another vicious plan to Jiangnan. If his plan succeeded, the East China Sea would be in danger.
Fortunately, the people who sent him out were intercepted. Crisis also means opportunities. The most important thing at the moment is to find someone to discuss this matter. Currently, there are not many people left in Luofeng City. Qi Jiguang is supervising the battle on the front line and Ma Chao is guarding it.
In Longxi City, Chu Yunsheng is the only one who can discuss with Li Xingzai.
Li Xingzai came to Chu Yunsheng's room and saw him lying on the bed, still refusing to rest. In front of the bed was the intelligence just sent from the front line.
Seeing Li Xingzai come in, he stood up and was about to get out of bed to salute. Li Xingzai sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hand to hold him down.
"I'm not telling you to get more rest. How can your body hold up after working so hard?"
Chu Yunsheng's expression was still haggard, but his eyes were sharp, with a charming light shining in his pupils.
"Your Majesty came to see me. Do you think things have changed?" Chu Yunsheng asked.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng like this, Li Xingzai couldn't bear to say anything to him or distract him anymore. However, the situation in front of him was really not good for Donghai. In the end, Li Xingzai nodded helplessly.
"Jiangnan wanted to contact the princes in the north. Fortunately, we stopped the people they sent. Now they are in prison. If they succeed, Donghai will really not be able to survive."
After hearing this, Chu Yunsheng narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, and said slowly: "It's not that my subordinates have not considered the situation in the North. Now that they have been killed by the Rong clan, even if they collude with Jiangnan, it will be difficult to deal with them.
What threat do we pose? Our enemies are still only the Jiangnan family."
But he didn't expect that Chu Yunsheng had already reached this point. After working hard for so long, it was not without any gains.
"Capturing their people in front of us is a good opportunity for us. If we can seize this opportunity, we may be able to make a comeback and defeat Jiangnan."
Li Xingzai nodded: "I think so too, the key is how to break the situation."
"This needs to be thought about by my subordinates." Chu Yunsheng narrowed his eyes again and said, "What we need most right now is an opportunity for a decisive battle."
Li Xingzai didn't ask any more questions. In terms of mental strength, no one in the East China Sea was better than Chu Yunsheng. Looking at the entire empire, he was one of the best, perhaps only Xu Shenji from Toad Village could rival him.
Under the predicament, everyone saw a gap because of the ghost-headed dragon caught by chance.
Since Chu Yunsheng can seize this opportunity, he will definitely be able to break the big with a small one, let the cracks expand, and finally poke a hole in the sky.
As long as his body can hold on.
After thinking in seclusion for three days, Chu Yunsheng already had an idea in his mind. What he had in mind was just a general idea, and the specific details needed to be added. He first told Li Xingzai what he had in mind and asked him if it was feasible.
Li Xingzai was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and finally said: "This plan is too risky. If it fails, we will completely lose everything."
"At this time..." Chu Yunsheng coughed for a while and said: "We have reached the point where we have to fight hard. If we don't fight, we really have no chance."
Li Xingzai thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Come on, people will die and birds will look up to the sky, and they will not die for tens of millions of years. Let's fight with them this time. Let's see whether God cares about me or Jiangnan."
