If you didn’t have a chance encounter on Xiaoxing Lake, it might be easier to solve Mu Fengliu’s problem.

After all, before coming, Cao Lie had planned a lot, step by step, and was being implemented.

However, there are always so many coincidences in this world, and it may be that Mu Fengliu's luck has indeed improved.

If he hadn't persuaded Mei Yan to go to Xiaoxing Lake for a trip, then Nie She wouldn't have encountered Mei Yan and wouldn't have been exposed.

If this is not Mu Fengliu's luck is too good, then it can only be said that Mei Yan's luck is too bad.

Or maybe Mei Yan should have died that day.

In the Shanhai Army Camp.

Mu Fengliu looked at the corpse on the ground, his face so ugly that he looked so ugly.

He never expected that he just wanted to send Mei Yan away, but Mei Yan saved his life.

From the people who escaped, he learned that the person who killed the Tsunami King was particularly powerful, and he could still go safely by killing dozens of people by one.

At that time, all the people on the boat were dead. The bandits on the shore saw this scene from afar, but after all, they were not so real.

They only saw the man jumping up and jumping from a small boat to the Tsunami King's ship. Then the Tsunami King died, and the people on the boat were all dead.

From the description, Mu Fengliu is inferring who the person who killed Mei Yan was.

"Cao Lie is here..."

Mu Fengliu said to himself.

Killers will not appear for no reason, and such masters are not everywhere, so the only reasonable explanation is that Cao Lie chased him.

"Block the news and don't let the soldiers know."

Mu Fengliu turned around and looked at the generals under his command and ordered: "Once the soldiers know that the Tsunami King is dead, they will have no fighting spirit... So those who are informed must be eliminated!"

The generals in the tent looked at me and I looked at you, and I didn’t know how to express their opinions for a while.

"gentlemen."

One of them said: "The Tsunami King is dead, and it is meaningless to continue to fight Longtou Pass at this time. It is better for us to temporarily retreat to Yanzhou and make plans."

Mu Fengliu glared at the man and said, "It has reached such a critical moment. Retreat?"

Another person said: "But sir, this matter cannot be hidden for long. At that time, the morale of the army will be disbanded. Not to mention that it cannot defeat the leader, it may also lead to the team being in chaos. At that time, I am afraid that no one can convince the public."

All of these leaders knew that the Tsunami King was just a puppet, but of course the hundreds of thousands of soldiers would not think so much. If they knew that the Tsunami King was dead, they would definitely feel that they had lost the King. Who would have the heart to attack Chengguan then?

"unless....."

One of them clasped his fists and said, "Mr.com stood up and took charge of the overall situation and found a reason to say that Mei Yan deserves to die and has already removed him. Now Mr.com is the king. I think it is better to say it earlier than to say it later."

Mu Fengliu's face changed constantly, Mei Yan's death did disrupt his plan.

Of course, his plan had long been disrupted by the tenacity of the Longtouguan defenders. In the plan, he had already taken Shan Haijun to attack Li Chi's border army.

"Tomorrow... attack the Longtou Pass with all its might, regardless of the price. If... if we can't fight again, we have to withdraw."

Mu Fengliu let out a heavy breath.

Of course, he hoped to have time to rush to the northern border to cooperate with the army of the Black Martial Empire, but when he was planning to do so, he had to admit that such an opportunity had been lost.

Even if he could break through Longtou Pass tomorrow, he would lead the Shanhai Army to the northern border day and night, and it would be cold at that time...

"So everyone, I must do my best tomorrow."

He clasped his fists and said.

But who has no plan in his subordinates?

At this moment, Mei Yan is dead, and there is no conclusion on who should be in the hands of Shan Haijun.

Everyone was talking about letting Mu Fengliu take over as the Tsunami King, but did they not have their own minds and plans?

Who wouldn't want to be the boss of these generals who lead the troops?

If no one can convince everyone, then we might as well just break up and everyone will lead their own teams to disperse. Who can't find a place to occupy the mountain and become king?

"General Liu, General Zhao."

Mu Fengliu looked at the two leaders and said, "Please stay first, I have something important to discuss with you."

The two of them looked at each other, then nodded at the same time: "Yes."

The others dispersed and prepared to attack the city tomorrow, but that was just a superficial act.

Mu Fengliu asked them to do their best to attack the city, would they have to do that?

Everyone will think that if my soldiers will suffer heavy losses, wouldn’t I lose the opportunity to be the boss?

Those little leaders who don’t have many soldiers will think that fighting for the boss is something that only those with more soldiers are qualified to participate. They have few soldiers, so protecting themselves is the bottom line.

And what we have to face next is how to take sides. Those powerful leaders will immediately start to secretly win over others.

Mu Fengliu said he was commanding the entire army, but at this point, Mu Fengliu was nothing...

When it was almost dark, all the generals of each army returned to their camps to arrange the situation, but none of them were really preparing to attack the city tomorrow.

In the big tent, a middle-aged man named Liu Feng, one of the leaders of Shanhaijun, looked at Mu Fengliu: "Sir, what's the point of giving me the two of us?"

The other one is Zhao Ba, and he thought to himself, would he choose one of us as the boss?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, thinking that Liu Feng has the right to compare with me?

Both of them have their own ulterior motives, but on the surface, there is nothing unusual about each other.

Mu Fengliu said: "I can probably guess who killed the Tsunami King, and I can probably guess where he is hiding now. After all, some of his abilities are taught by me..."

Speaking of this, Mu Fengliu walked to the door of the big tent and looked at the mountain not far away.

If he were Cao Lie, he would have to find a place in that mountain to see clearly the entire Shanhai Army camp and secretly observe it in secret.

Mu Fengliu also knew that Cao Lie did not come specifically to kill the Tsunami King, because in the eyes of people like Cao Lie, the Tsunami King Mei Yan was not worth mentioning at all and was completely ineligible to enter Cao Lie's eyes.

Cao Lie can only come to kill him, and he has already transferred the masters from Shanhe Seal.

So he couldn't sit still and wait for death. He wanted Cao Lie to know that without him, Cao Lie would be nothing.

"Two generals."

Mu Fengliu pointed to the mountain: "Tonight, the two will gather their troops to surround the mountain. Let's find out who assassinated the tsunami king. This person is rich enough to rival a country. He knows where countless treasures are hidden. He catches this person and asks about the treasures belong to the two generals."

Liu Feng and Zhao Ba looked at each other again, wanting to get some inspiration from each other's eyes.

“Okay.”

Liu Feng said first: "Listen to the order of the sir."

Zhao Ba clasped his fists and said, "I am the same, listen to the orders of the sir."

Mu Fengliu smiled and said, "I know that in your heart, everyone is actually thinking... The Tsunami King is dead, who can be the boss? Who doesn't want to be the boss?"

He looked back at the two people and said, "You should also know who I am by my side can be the boss safely."

Zhao Ba leaned over and said, "Sir is the best candidate."

Talking nonsense is something that is born with individuals.

So Liu Feng also hurriedly said: "The only one who has prestige in the army can turn the tide is Mr. I am willing to assist Mr. to become the leader of the Shanhai Army."

Mu Fengliu said: "I won't be this boss, but I can help you become the king of side by side."

The two of them changed their faces at the same time.

Mu Fengliu said: "The generals now have soldiers in their hands. For you two, if you fight with others, you may not be sure to win. If the two of them join forces, just like the tsunami king and the king of Shanhu, who can join the forces of the two armies?"

Liu Feng and Zhao Ba looked at each other again, and both of them were actually moved by Mu Fengliu's words.

Mu Fengliu was right. They took out any of them and snatched them one-on-one, but they were not sure to defeat others.

But if the two join forces, they will definitely be sure. With people like Mu Fengliu assisting, the chances of winning are not just ten percent.

Mu Fengliu said: "If you follow me to kill that man tonight, you will have countless money. If you two have my help, Shan Haijun will be the ones in your pocket."

The two of them replied at the same time: "Listen to sir!"

That night, Liu Feng and Zhao Ba secretly mobilized the team and quietly surrounded the mountain where Cao Lie was.

In the mountains, Cao Lie stood on the stone and looked up at the moon in the sky in a daze.

When he was talking to Nie She, it seemed relaxed, but he also understood in his heart that the opportunity he had laid out before to kill Mu Fengliu was lost when Nie She killed Mei Yan.

People like Mu Fengliu will make judgments immediately and respond immediately.

"Young Master."

One of Cao Lie's confidant subordinates, a young man named Chang Juding, walked to Cao Lie and said in a low voice: "Mr. Nie She, you have left first as the young master's instructions."

Cao Lie nodded: "I understand."

Chang Juding said, "Young Master, it's time for you to leave."

Cao Lie shook his head and said, "I can't leave... If I leave, I will have no chance to kill Mu Fengliu again. He will seem to have disappeared suddenly and can't find it even if he wants to. That is what he is best at."

He took a breath and smiled and said, "Although his life is not worth mentioning compared to me, I will take advantage of this time... As long as I am still here, Mu Fengliu will go crazy and want to kill me. If he doesn't kill me, he will not be able to sleep in peace in the future."

"His life is much lighter than mine, but if he can kill him and he can break the siege of Longtou Pass, then even if one life is exchanged for another... I will not lose. My life is the same as the country, which is not bad."

Chang Juding said, "If the young master refuses to leave, we will not be able to fight the people who are Mu Fengliu to death."

Cao Lie smiled and said, "No need to persuade me anymore. I have thought through every link until now, so I naturally know that the most important link is myself... Although Mr. Nie She accidentally killed Mei Yan, our plan had to be adapted, it was not all bad things, and he might defeat Shan Haijun in one fell swoop."

He turned around and looked at the foot of the mountain: "Besides, it's too late to leave now. Many of my tricks of planning are taught by Mu Fengliu. Of course, he is sure to find where I am."

Cao Lie looked down at the long knife hanging around his waist.

He and Mr. Nie She learned swords for ten years, but since then, they have no chance to draw the sword because he doesn't need to draw the sword himself.

But in today's battle, the peerless sword he hung was about to drink blood.

This knife is not a sword passed down from generation to generation, but his father sent someone to exhaust his ten years of hard work to find something unique and build it for him with one year's strength.

The name of this knife was chosen by Cao Lie himself, and it was named Jingzhe.
