"This subordinate has emphasized this matter again and again, but the prince doesn't believe it!" the general said without tears.
"Damn!"
Li Yuan threw away the general, and with a tyrannical look on his face, he shouted: "Why don't you go after him quickly?!"
"My lord, our horses are no longer in control. If we walk, we won't be able to catch up with the carriage." The general said helplessly.
"Damn! Why did they just bump into each other?"
Li Yuan was very anxious.
"Wait!" A flash of light flashed in Xu Zian's eyes, and he asked in a deep voice, "When did this miasma appear?"
"Mr. Hui, after the gang of thieves robbed the supplies, the subordinates prepared to lead people to chase them. As soon as they arrived at the stables, miasma appeared before they had time to ride the horses, and then the horses ran away violently." The general replied truthfully. road.
"Oh, how can it be such a coincidence?"
Xu Zian chuckled, and continued: "My lord, what kind of miasma is this? It's clearly a means left by the thieves, just to prevent our army from chasing and killing."
"what?!"
Hearing this, Li Yuanze's eyes widened.
He looked pensive, and asked puzzledly: "If the Great Immortal hadn't been born, where did this miasma come from?"
"Maybe it's a unique kind of wet wood. After being soaked in potion and then smoked, it can produce this kind of smoke that makes the horses go berserk." Xu Zian said thoughtfully.
"Why didn't you say anything just now, sir?"
Li Yuan was filled with grief and indignation, so embarrassed that he couldn't bear it.
Just now he brought many Leizhou soldiers, and they knelt down and kowtowed to the stables.
If this gets out, will he still be a human being?
Chapter 326: The Heart Is Bleeding
Li Yuanze was angry and anxious at this time.
Originally it was just a play for Li Xiao to watch.
But he never expected that someone would actually steal his things at this juncture.
Now it's all right, the fake has come true, he lost so many supplies and money for nothing.
My heart is bleeding!
"correct!"
Li Yuanze's eyes lit up, and he said hastily, "Aren't there still two thousand horses in Lin Yang's barracks outside the city?"
"Quick! Go stop Li Xiao and ask him to borrow a war horse!"
Li Yuan was very excited as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
In any case, this batch of supplies must not be lost.
"My lord, King Yue has been walking away with his horse for a while. Let's go after it now. Even if we catch up, it will take a lot of time. After so long, the gang of thieves have already run away." The general looked helpless. said.
"Damn!"
Li Yuanze was furious, and roared: "No matter what, even if I walk, I have to catch up! They must not be allowed to transport supplies out of Leizhou!"
"Yes!"
A department will immediately accept the order with fists folded.
Li Yuan cursed a few times, and then looked at Xu Zian: "Sir, could it be Li Xiao who did this again?"
In the past few days, Li Xiao gave him the impression of being mysterious and powerful.
Since he could sneak into his barracks, he also had the ability to sneak into Leizhou City and rob supplies.
Thinking of this, Li Yuan immediately ordered: "Check carefully the traces left by the gang of thieves in the government office, and look for black potholes on the ground."
"Yes!"
A general led the order to retreat.
As for Xu Zian, looking at the gradually dissipating smoke above the stables, his eyes were thoughtful: "Just go in and have a look to find out who it is. You can find some clues from the smoke."
"Don't let me know who you are!"
Li Yuan looked at the sky, his eyes full of resentment.
After a long time, the smoke in the stable gradually dissipated.
Li Yuanze and Xu Zian led people in immediately.
Beside him, countless soldiers filed in and spread out to investigate every place.
Soon some soldiers came forward to report.
The soldier held a long black column-shaped iron can in his hand, handed it to Li Yuanze, and said at the same time: "My lord, I found this in the stable. When I found it, there was still smoke on it. .”
"that's it!"
Xu Zian's eyes were shocked, and he quickly took it over and carefully looked at it.
"Didn't sir say that the thieves used wet wood soaked in poison?" Li Yuan asked curiously.
Xu Zian didn't answer, but used a dagger to lift the iron plate on the tin can and observed it carefully.
Seeing and watching, Xu Zian's brows gradually wrinkled, and his eyes were full of confusion and incomprehension.
Based on his decades of life experience, he couldn't even tell what it was.
He has read so many books and learned so much in the past, but he still can't find the impression of this thing in his mind.
After a long time, Xu Zian still didn't respond.
Li Yuan couldn't help asking: "Sir, did you see anything?"
Xu Zian put down the tin can, sighed, and said helplessly: "This thing is very strange, and the old man has never seen or heard of it, but what is certain is that the previous miasma was released from this thing .”
"Li Xiao!"
Li Yuanze's face was full of anger, and he said firmly: "It's definitely him! Such a weird thing, who else can there be besides him?"
It's no wonder that he was so sure, it was Li Xiao's various weird methods before, which made him still fresh in his memory.
It was as if there was a monster in the house.
He can always surprise him with various shocking methods.
"If it's really Li Xiao..." Xu Zian frowned, and said slowly, "It might be a good thing for the prince."
"Is it okay?"
Li Yuanze's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He stole so many things from me, and he brazenly agreed with me to hand them over again in three days."
"Co-authoring is not enough? Do you want two copies?"
"How can there be such a beautiful thing in this world?"
"no!"
Li Yuan said angrily: "I must take back this batch of supplies and money!"
"My lord, don't worry." Xu Zian looked at the tin can and said thoughtfully, "Your lord, think about the power of this thing?"
"What do you mean, sir?"
Li Yuan frowned, not knowing why.
"The smoke released by this thing can instantly incapacitate the prince's army, and it can also cause the horses to run wild. If such a heaven-defying ability can be used by the prince, then..."
When Xu Zian said this, there seemed to be a sparkle in his eyes.
"That's right, if there are a large number of these things, even if I fight against an army of [-], I will be sure to win."
Having said this, Li Yuanze's complexion gradually became serious.
After thinking for a while, he continued: "But the question is, how to get the manufacturing method of this thing from Li Xiao?"
Xu Zian said slowly: "Although there are some flaws in the plan, Qinzhou is progressing smoothly, and everything is still under control."
Speaking of this, Xu Zian's mouth curled up into a smile: "At that time, even his life is almost gone, does Li Xiao still dare to reject the prince?"
"The point is, can Qinzhou pose a threat to Li Xiao? If he uses this thing to deal with Qinzhou, what should he do?"
Li Yuan had a worried face on his face.
"The Ning family is not so easy to deal with, the prince will wait and see!"
Xu Zian stroked his beard, his eyes darkened.
……
At the same time, Qinzhou is far away in the northwest of Leizhou.
Luzhou City belongs to Qinzhou, close to the coast, and is one of the largest cities in Qinzhou.
On the coast pier.
It's a mess right now.
There were burnt wreckage everywhere, and the sky was filled with thick smoke.
There are businessmen who are rescuing supplies, and there are people crying bitterly holding the dead bodies of their relatives. The scene is chaotic.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
"Master Ning is here, the idlers wait for the speed to retreat!"
With a loud shout, countless Qinzhou soldiers swarmed.
The soldiers lined up, leaving a path in the middle.
A general in black and red armor came on horseback.
The common people and businessmen nearby all backed away one after another and talked a lot at the same time.
"Master Ning? Which Lord Ning?"
"It's him! Captain Ning Qianjun of Qinzhou! Why did he come here?"
"Shhh! You can call out Master Ning's name too? Be careful not to lose your head!"
……
on the pier.
Ning Qianjun looked at the mess around him, his face was always calm, but his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"grown ups!"
At this time, a general came over, knelt on one knee and cupped his fists and said: "I have checked, the three docks in Luzhou City were attacked last night, someone saw a flag with Qiong written on the incoming boat, suspected to be Qiongzhou troops."
"Qiongzhou?"
Ning Qianjun frowned slightly, and after pondering for a moment, said: "Where is the prefect here? Where is it now?"
"My lord, I have sent someone to pass it on, and I will be there soon." The general said respectfully.
"Don't use it, grab it and take it to the cell, and ask to be executed tomorrow!"
A cold light flashed in Ning Qianjun's eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "I don't even know that there are Qiongzhou warships approaching, and I can let them leave safely afterward. What's the use of such a waste?"
"what?"
The general was stunned for a moment, and said: "I heard that...the governor of Luzhou City is deeply loved by the people. If he is killed for no reason, my subordinates are worried that it will cause public resentment."
"Hehe~" Ning Qianjun smiled disdainfully: "In this land of Qinzhou, will my Ning family worry about public grievances?"
"Since you begged for mercy, you don't have to wait for tomorrow."
"Come on!"
Ning Qianjun yelled loudly, and said loudly: "The governor of Luzhou City, colluding with foreign enemies, causing chaos and chaos, is an unforgivable crime. On behalf of the Ning family, I declare that he will be executed on the spot!"
"Yes!"
In the distance, another general led the way.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Ning Qianjun looked at the general kneeling at his feet and asked in a deep voice.
