In Chang'an City, a secret stronghold of Goguryeo, Lu Yuan and Gaisu Wen were drinking tea anxiously, but the tea didn't taste good no matter how much they drank today. Xiaojiazhuang was a restricted area of the Tang Dynasty. It was rumored that no one had made plans over the years, but no one had succeeded. No one who sneaked in secretly survived, and all of them disappeared from the world.
How many people did you send?
Can they succeed just by making a simple move? Can you return safely after you succeed?
After several rhythmic knocks on the door, an ordinary servant walked in quickly and said, "Da Dui Lu, they are back."
"Oh? Was it successful?"
"Well, it worked."
"No holes left, right?"
"No tail found."
"Okay, bring it here."
Not long after, several scouts who had sneaked into Xiaojiazhuang were brought over.
After listening to their stories, Yeon Gaesumun was no longer calm, "The treasure trove of champion Hou Xiaorui? Can you be sure?"
"I dare not lie. It was precisely because we heard this that we returned halfway. We never entered Xiaojiazhuang. Please punish Lu!"
After pondering for a long time, Yuan Gaisu Wen laughed loudly and said: "Okay! Champion Hou Xiaorui likes to take things by surprise. It is exactly his style to put the treasure house in an inconspicuous place outside the village! Very good! Go down and receive the reward, wait. I will arrange everything and then arrange the follow-up matters."
After seeing off a few people, Yuengai Suwen summoned his subordinates, "Our goal is getting closer and closer. We can notify the caravan to gather outside the city. This time we will attack Xiaojiazhuang!"
What? Attack Xiaojiazhuang?
"However, Xiaojiazhuang is known as the strongest defense in the Tang Dynasty. We transported it many times through caravans and only managed to gather 2,000 people. How can we succeed?"
Yuan Gaisuwen sneered: "Two thousand people? That's quite a lot! Being able to gather two thousand dead soldiers under the nose of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, haha, is enough to give them a surprise."
"It's hard to live up to the reputation! In recent years, as the reputation of the champion Hou Xiaorui has risen, everyone has been frightened by him, so that no one has dared to take an idea of Xiaojiazhuang for a long time. Therefore, Xiaojiazhuang's defense is inevitable Somewhat lax.”
"This is a good opportunity right now! As long as we succeed, even if all two thousand people are lost, it will still be worth it. We must fight hard this time!"
The subordinate said with some distress: "Two thousand dead soldiers were sacrificed at once, but they are all loyal elites we have trained. Why not spend a lot of money to recruit a group of Jianghu people?"
Yeon Gaesumun slapped him hard, "Idiot!"
"The champion Hou Xiaorui has a high reputation among the people. If there is any mistake, the matter will be leaked. Dare to use people from the Tang Dynasty? That is asking for death!"
"For this big plan, we have been planning for a full year. Who dares to do bad things at this time? I will destroy all nine of his tribes!"
…
In Xiao's Manor, Xiao Rui didn't know that there was a flaw in his defense, so he still took a comfortable vacation every day.
At the wine cellar in the north of the village, the Great White Ape and the Panda Erhua sneaked in to steal wine again, but they were caught by the guarding villagers, and the two animals fled in panic.
Woohoo...
Huhu...
Seeing the two beasts running and roaring, the two guarding villagers laughed loudly, "These two guys are like children who made mistakes. They shouldn't dare to come next time, right?"
Little did they know that the two strange beasts were running and shouting. They were not running for their lives, but they had discovered the scent of outsiders.
He came to Xiao Rui who was fishing and asked for credit while talking and gesticulating. In this Xiaojiazhuang, others could not understand animal language, but Xiao Rui understood it. He raised the two guys from childhood to adulthood, so why couldn't he understand it? Do you understand?
"You said you found traces of outsiders sneaking in? Over there in the wine cellar?"
"Haha, you were caught stealing wine again, and you were afraid that I would punish you, so why don't you take credit first?"
The two strange beasts were spinning around anxiously, as if they were trying to defend themselves.
Xiao Rui put down the fishing rod and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll go with you to have a look. If it's true, I won't have to steal wine from now on. I'll give each of you a pot as a reward every day."
Hmm hmm...
Like a child who got candy, Dabai danced and Erhua even took the initiative to let Xiao Rui ride on the mountain and quickly ran towards the wine cellar.
"Sir, the two of them came to steal wine again just now..."
"Haha, I know, they have confessed to me."
As he said that, several people followed Dabai to a hidden place in the back mountain. Dabai kept gesticulating.
The two villagers couldn't understand, but Xiao Rui's expression changed. He could tell at a glance that someone had been hiding here. After surveying the scene, he hid there and tried it himself. Following the direction, he could see the shed outside the wine cellar in a hidden way.
"Is this? Someone is thinking about the wine cellar?" Xiao Rui turned his head and glanced at Dabai and Erhua.
Dabai quickly waved his hand and backed away, meaning it was us!
Xiao Rui laughed loudly and said: "I know it's not you. With your size, you can't hide here. Judging from the traces, there are five people. Let's go back first."
The two villagers exclaimed: "What? Five? Master, you mean, there are five wine thieves? How can this be true? Who in this village is so greedy for wine? How dare he care about the wine cellar?"
Xiao Rui waved his hand and said: "No, he is not from this village. If he is from this village, Dabai and Erhua can find him by smell. He is an outsider."
"What? Young Master, our Xiaojiazhuang's defense can actually allow outsiders to come in?"
"Yes! So things are not simple this time. Come back to the village with me. I let you watch the wine cellar to guard against these two guys. Now that foreign enemies have come, your skills are no longer good. It is dangerous to stay. !" Xiao Rui ordered.
"No, sir, the wine cellar is very important. What if there is no one to look after it? We are not afraid of danger..."
Xiao Rui scolded: "Stupid! Come back with us now. I will send experts to guard the matter. If you stay, you will only lose your life in vain!"
Forehead……
Back home, Li Junxian exclaimed that he had neglected his duty!
"Master Marquis, it must be yesterday. In order to deal with those envoys, too many troops were deployed yesterday, so there was a loophole. I will be negligent in my duty. Please punish me, Master Marquis!"
Xiao Rui smiled calmly, "Fifth brother, don't you think it's strange? No one has dared to take advantage of my Xiaojiazhuang for a long time, but why come during this time?"
"You mean, they are foreigners? They deliberately lured the tiger away from the mountain? Just to sneak in and explore the secrets of our Xiaojiazhuang? But why did they only focus on the wine cellar? Shouldn't they come to the village?" Li Junxian was puzzled.
"Haha, I don't know about this. But what is certain is that this is just the beginning, and they will definitely come again."
Li Junxian's face turned red, "Then we went to strengthen our defenses, and someone actually sneaked in and touched the wine cellar, and almost entered the village. How is this unreasonable? Those Hundan gangs usually told me that a fly left in Xiaojiazhuang I want to fly in, now let’s see how they explain it?”
Xiao Rui laughed loudly and said: "Okay, fifth brother, if you want to be punished, you go and get twenty army sticks yourself first. You have been bragging to me all day long that an iron barrel is as safe."
Ahem...
"Yes, General Mo will go and receive his punishment right now."
"Let's make a note of this time. Don't touch the current defense, so as not to alert the enemy. I want to see who is interested in me this time?"
Li Junxian reminded: "Master Hou, think twice, your Majesty is here now. Just in case..."
