1170 Get out and beat the fallen dog

No matter who is unlucky among Prince Lei, Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan, Feng Qingchen is happy. If these three can be taken down at once, it would be worth celebrating even earlier.

However, Feng Qingchen also knew that this kind of thing was unlikely. Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan were not Crown Prince Lei. Crown Prince Lei had been deposed, but Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan both had the Emperor and a country as their backers.

Background is more important than anything else. If you kill a commoner, you can just go to the government office and use your money to smooth things over. But if you kill a prince, it is a serious crime that will lead to the extermination of nine generations of the clan.

"Among these three people, the only one we can move now is Xiling Tianlei. What arrangements have you made in Xiling?" Feng Qingchen quickly browsed through the information and asked respectfully.

The Ninth Prince raised his eyes calmly, a smile flashing in his eyes: "You just know that I will take action against Xiling Tianlei."

"You only pick on the weak. He is now a drowned dog. If we don't hit him, who else should we hit?" Feng Qingchen glared at the Ninth Uncle and almost said: Just let me pretend.

"You are right. He is indeed a drowned dog now. If it weren't for the Emperor Xiling's willingness to look after him, he would be nothing now." The Ninth Prince nodded with a smile and asked, "What do you think the king will do?"

"This..." Feng Qingchen thought for a moment, and then said, "It's the same as what Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan want, cut off his supply. Without Xiling's support, Xiling Tianlei won't be able to hold out in the miasma forest for long."

"That's right. As long as Xiling Tianlei's retreat is cut off, he will have to fight." Without food, Xiling Tianlei could not use his extraordinary means.

Seeing that the Ninth Prince was full of confidence, Feng Qingchen asked again: "Everyone understands this principle, but it is easy to say but difficult to do. If it was really easy, Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan would not have spent so much time with him."

Xiling Tianlei stayed in the miasma forest for a month without any hurry, which showed that he had his own supply route, which must be extremely secret.

"I don't fight a war without preparation. I am a bystander and I see things more clearly than them. Ziluo and Nanling Jinfan have been putting pressure on Xiling to make the Emperor no longer support Xiling Tianlei. But they don't know that if the Emperor really wants to support Xiling Tianlei, he won't let them catch him." On the surface, everyone knows that the supporter behind Xiling Tianlei must be the Emperor, but...

No one could find any evidence, so it was useless even if they went to Xiling to protest.

Feng Qingchen's eyes lit up, and she grabbed the hem of the Ninth Uncle's clothes in excitement: "Do you know the route that Xiling uses to transport grain to Xiling Tianlei?"

Even Dongling and Nanling have not found out about this route, which shows how secretive it is. If the Ninth Prince knew the existence of this route, it would be like holding the lifeline of Xiling Tianlei in his hands.

The Ninth Prince smiled mysteriously and said, "This prince is lucky."

The Ninth Prince did not leave Feng Qingchen in the dark and slowly revealed his discovery.

Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan only focused on Xiling, but the Ninth Prince did not pay attention to the affairs of Xiling. Instead, he went to investigate what happened and the people Xiling Tianlei met during his travels in the four countries to select concubines.

As a result, the Ninth Prince really found out about a person. This person was rescued by Xiling Tianlei in Beiling. In order to save him, Xiling Tianlei even offended the powerful people in Beiling.

The man was a general of Beiling, brave and good at fighting, but he was framed and his family was destroyed. Xiling Tianlei not only saved him, but also avenged him.

In order to repay Xiling Tianlei, that person faked his death and followed Xiling Tianlei away. He has been helping Xiling Tianlei outside for many years, and this person...

In the past year, he has been active near the miasma forest and is very familiar with this area.

Feng Qingchen suddenly realized: "No wonder, no wonder when Xiling Tianlei defected, he rushed into the miasma forest without a second thought. Outsiders may think he was in a panic, but they don't know that he was well prepared."

"It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that he has been prepared. He never thought that there would be such a day." Xiling Tianlei probably never dreamed that he would be forced to this point. You know, before that, he was still dreaming of unifying the four countries and nine cities.

"In short, he retreated to the miasma forest not without preparation. Prince Luo and Nanling Jinfan really hit a wall." These days, wars are fought with the right time, place and people.

The good or bad weather is the same for both parties. It just depends on who can take advantage of it. Besides, the good or bad weather is not controlled by people.

As for harmony among people, a general will not lead a person who does not obey his orders. No one can gain much advantage in this regard.

Only geographical advantage.

Without satellites and regional maps, whoever is familiar with the terrain will have the greatest advantage, and now Xiling Tianlei has a huge advantage.

“No matter whether he is prepared or not, no matter how well prepared he is, I will make sure his plan fails.” A hint of murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Ninth Prince.

He had been planning for so long and had finally brought Xiling Tianlei down. Now he could kill him with a clear conscience and without having to worry about Xiling's revenge. How could he let him go?

Now that all countries dislike Xiling Tianlei, no one will care if we kill him. After a long time... there is no guarantee that there will be no changes in Xiling.

How could Xiling Tianlei say that the ashes of death could be rekindled? He also has the blood of the Xiling royal family flowing in his body, so he cannot be allowed to live no matter what.

"What we have to do now is to cut off Xiling Tianlei's supply route. So... when will the latest batch of food from Xiling be delivered to the miasma forest?" From the Ninth Uncle's words, Feng Qingchen could guess that a batch of materials must have been shipped out of Xiling recently.

"According to the intelligence I received, the batch of military rations was secretly shipped out from the Northwest Military Region five days ago." In Xiling, the Ninth Prince has a Mr. Yinli who has a say in the court; there is also Xiling Tianyu in the military camp, and a chief who controls Xiling's intelligence.

It can be said that a word from the Ninth Prince can completely influence the entire trend of Xiling, and Xiling is also the country where the Ninth Prince has the deepest roots and the strongest control except for Dongling.

"We have to rob this batch of grain, but we can't make too much noise. When the time comes... will it be just the three of us going?" Feng Qingchen asked.

The Ninth Prince did not hide it and nodded silently: "The Black Cavalry went to Beiling."

In other words, in addition to the three of them, they can also mobilize some secret guards, no more.

The commotion was too big, the Emperor of Xiling should have noticed it. If Xiling Tianlei knew about it in advance, it would be a hindrance to the plan. Only if Xiling Tianlei was unaware of the supply problem could Xiling Tianlei be forced to run out of food and ammunition and be forced to lead a group of hungry soldiers to fight.

At that time, Xiling Tianlei will fight desperately to survive and will not hold back.

He wanted Xiling Tianlei to be completely defeated, even if doing so would give Ziluo and Nanling Jinfan more bargaining chips.

"We can rob a batch of food. As long as we prepare well, the three of us will be enough. I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" asked the Ninth Prince with a raised eyebrow.

Feng Qingchen expressed his concerns: "I'm afraid the emperor won't let us stay outside for too long. If we are called back to the capital halfway, we will suffer a great loss. After all, outsiders don't know what happened in the Holy Land of the Demon Cult, but if we leave the Demon Cult, our whereabouts will be exposed. If we stay outside all the time, the emperor will definitely not agree."

Maybe in two days, the emperor will order the ninth uncle to return quickly.

With a dangerous person like the Ninth Prince, one can only feel at ease if he is kept under one's own supervision.

"Your worries are not without reason. Even though I hold a high position and great power, I am only a prince. I cannot stay outside for long without the emperor's order. Does Qingchen have a plan to escape?" The Ninth Prince leaned forward and asked seriously, but his eyes were smiling...

This is flirting!
