As the team entered the city, the Shanming Pass guard Li Shanyuan also led a group of soldiers under his command to walk down the city wall.

Xiao Ling walked out of the carriage.

Li Shanyuan didn't show any signs of his figure. He just stood there and stared directly at him.

"How dare you, why don't you bow when you see the Marquis?"

Then Liu An asked.

Li Shanyuan didn't speak.

Behind him, a lieutenant with the level of an eighth-level warrior was disdainful and said: "Bullshit Lord Marquis, I'm just looking at a lost dog..."

Swish!

Before he finished speaking, a flash of spiritual light directly penetrated the other party's eyebrows.

The deputy general lost all vitality and died immediately.

The person who took action was Yang Zaixing.

Seeing the death of his lieutenant, Li Shanyuan frowned and looked at Yang Zaixing next to Xiao Ling, feeling increasingly horrified.

He sensed an extremely dangerous aura on the other party's body.

At the same time, an icy coldness hit him. Even though he was unwilling to do so, he could only hold it in: "I have seen Pinghou."

Xiao Ling looked at Li Shanyuan.

At this moment, there are many people and mixed views, plus the identity of Fangshan Mingguan general, let's spare his life for the time being.

"Has my residence been properly arranged?"

Although he was demoted to this point, with a strong man like Yang Zaixing as his trump card, Xiao Ling did not panic at all.

After hearing this, Li Shanyuan said to a guard beside him: "Take Pinghou to the merchant's house in the west of the city."

West of the city?

"General, isn't this Pinghou Mansion supposed to be..."

The guard wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Li Shanyuan.

"Go if you are told, and stop talking nonsense!"

Originally, the imperial capital had already sent the decree quickly, so he was naturally prepared in advance.

But now that he saw Xiao Ling being accompanied by a strong man, he didn't dare to be too negligent before he knew Yu Huang's attitude.

"As ordered!"

The personal guard nodded and immediately led Xiao Ling and others away.

Seeing the team gradually disappearing from sight, Li Shanyuan's face instantly darkened.

Looking at the deputy general's body lying on the ground, the corner of his mouth floated: "Marquis Ping..."

"This general will cut you into pieces!"

......

soon.

Under the leadership of the personal guard, Xiao Ling and others arrived at a house in the west of the city.

Looking at the house in front of me, the overall layout is definitely incomparable to the original Tianfeng Palace in the imperial city, but in a bitter and cold frontier place like Shanming Pass, it is still okay.

Xiao Ling sent people to clean up the surrounding areas of the mansion, and under the protection of Yang Zaixing, he arrived at the main hall of the mansion.

The person just sat down on the main seat.

Swish!

A figure appeared in the middle of the main hall about a foot away from Xiao Ling.

Yang Zaixing only glanced at the visitor and immediately withdrew his gaze.

"Subordinate Zhang Guang, come and see the lord!"

The person who came was none other than Zhang Guang, a member of the Jinyiwei Baihu who was sent to Shanming Pass by Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling glanced at Zhang Guang: "Tell me what information you have found."

There is no doubt about Jin Yiwei's investigative ability, and Zhang Guang must have obtained a lot of valuable information.

"My lord, I have led my Jin Yiwei into Shanming Pass. Through relationship management, they have successfully infiltrated into the army, internal government offices and other major city institutions. There are also some Jin Yiwei who are hiding in the city streets to listen for information at all times. "

"According to investigations by subordinates, Li Shanyuan has a total of nearly [-] troops under his command. Among them, [-] of the most elite soldiers and horses are stationed in Shanming City Pass, and the remaining [-] are stationed in various city passes outside Shanming Pass. .”

One hundred thousand troops?

After knowing the number of garrison troops, Xiao Ling was not too surprised.

After all, Shanming Pass is one of the important cities on the Youzhou frontier of the Dayu Dynasty. Outside this pass, there are often intrusions by prairie barbarian bandits. If it were not heavily guarded, it would have been breached long ago.

Not to mention the [-] troops scattered outside the city, it seems that if he wants to control Shanming Pass, the most important thing is the [-] troops stationed in the city.

As long as these [-] troops are dealt with, it will be safe to take Shanming Pass.

At this time, a white dove landed on the empty dam outside the main hall.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Guang immediately stepped forward and took a small note from the white pigeon.

After reading it, he said to Xiao Ling: "My Lord, there is news from the Jinyi Guards in the east of the city."

"Then Li Shanyuan sent a team of people and ordered them to go to Dayu Imperial Capital to prepare to explore the truth of the Lord."

Li Shangguan can't sit still!

"This guy moves pretty fast."

Xiao Ling had expected Li Shanyuan's actions.

He was originally a rebellious son who was exiled here, but he was accompanied by a strong man like Yang Zaixing. This would definitely make Li Shanyuan wary.

Without knowing the specific identity of Yang Zaixing, the other party would never act rashly.

Zhang Guang said: "My lord, there are already Jinyi guards following us secretly. If necessary, we can take action at any time to kill all the people heading to the imperial capital."

"Not a single one!"

Xiao Ling said directly.

Although Youzhou Shanming Pass is nearly a thousand miles away from Dayu Emperor, if Yu Emperor really knows about the situation, then the other party will definitely take action, and even send strong men to come.

At present, he does not have the strength to compete with Yu Huang, so he must develop steadily and accumulate his own strength.

"Subordinates obey!"

As Zhang Guang spoke, he immediately took out a pen and paper and started writing a letter, and then delivered the message through the carrier pigeon as quickly as possible.

"Yang Zaixing."

Xiao Ling looked at Yang Zaixing, who was silent at the side.

"The end is here!"

Yang Zaixing stepped forward immediately.

"If you were to lead those thousand cavalry, would you be sure to defeat the [-] troops stationed in Shanming Pass?"

Xiao Ling asked.

"My lord, if the two armies confront each other head-on, the general with a thousand cavalry under his command will be enough to defeat them."

"But if you want to capture and control them all, I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome."

Yang Zaixing replied.

The thousand cavalry under his command are all composed of fourth-grade warriors. It is not a big problem to deal with ordinary sergeants like Shanmingguan, but after all, the number is too small, and there are not many manpower to control the tens of thousands of troops.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Yang Zaixing was so sure, Xiao Ling was naturally relieved.

As long as you can fight.

As for the prisoners, let’s not talk about them for now.

First make sure you have enough ability to protect yourself.

Now he just needs to wait for a suitable opportunity to take action.

at the same time.

In the Shanmingguan General's Mansion.

A group of Shanmingguan's soldiers were in the main hall.

Li Shanyuan, who was sitting on the main seat in front, had a gloomy expression, while the remaining ten generals were on the left and right sides.

"General, that Marquis Ping is extremely arrogant. He killed an army commander when he first arrived. This obviously doesn't take you seriously!"

"Bullshit Pinghou is just a rebellious remnant who was demoted to this place."

"Dare to be so arrogant on our Shanming Pass territory, we must not let this person go so easily!"

Listening to the people below talking incessantly, Li Shanyuan, who was in charge, was also very upset.

"enough!"

"Shut up for me!"

As soon as these words came out, the main hall fell silent instantly.

Looking at the generals present, Li Shanyuan said: "This general has sent people to the imperial city to inquire about the news. If the strong man next to that brat is arranged by the royal family, that's all. But if he is the remnant of King Tianfeng, then this man must be allowed to The brat can’t bear to eat and is walking around.”

"He, a mere loser, wants to get involved in Shanming Pass. It seems that this general really needs to show him how powerful it is."
