The snake-pulling cave

"The question is, even if we know General Longwei's intention, how can we intercept him?" Thorian asked again.

Now General Long Wei has disappeared, and their people haven't even touched the corner of his clothes, so they have no way to chase him.

Moreover, West Lucozia is a vast territory with abundant resources. It is unrealistic to completely block all routes out of the country.

It is okay in a short period of time, but if it takes too long, it will have a huge impact on the economic development of West Lucozia as a whole.

It is not a wise choice to waste resources like this for a wanted criminal.

"General Long Wei is wanted by the whole city now. It is impossible for him to leave the country through normal routes. He can only choose to smuggle."

Dustin made a detailed analysis: "According to the distribution of the sea chart, if General Long Wei departs from West Lucozia and goes to the Lighthouse Country, he must pass through the Bohai Country. We can start from this aspect. You should immediately find someone to investigate how many smuggling routes there are from West Lucozia to the Bohai Country?"

"Understood, I will arrange it immediately!"

Thorian nodded, then called the guards and quickly gave instructions.

The people in the palace worked very efficiently. In less than half an hour, a special route map was delivered to Thorian.

When they unfold the map, they can see dozens of winding routes, which are the docks and ports leading to the Bohai Kingdom from the West Lucozia border.

However, five of the routes are specially marked in red, which makes them very eye-catching.

These routes do not exist on normal maps and are little known.

To put it simply, it is the hidden line of smuggling and illegal immigration.

Some unscrupulous businessmen collude with certain officials to make profits through these smuggling routes.

The palace had already investigated these matters, but had never dealt with them.

On the one hand, they’re too lazy to make a big move, and on the other hand, it's a bit like raising a poison.

"Brother, look, these five are the routes for sneaking into the Bohai Kingdom. If your guess is correct, General Long Wei will definitely choose one of them. As long as we send soldiers to ambush in these places, we can definitely capture him!" Thorian pointed his finger on the map.

"General Long Wei is a martial arts master after all, and he has keen perception. If we send a large number of troops to ambush, it will easily arouse suspicion and alert the enemy." Dustin said.

General Long Wei is now like a frightened bird. He will flee immediately at the slightest sign of trouble.

"That's true."

Thorian nodded thoughtfully: "It is indeed not appropriate to send a large number of troops, but if we only mobilize a few elite teams, I am worried that the number of people is too small and we can't stop the enemy."

Even after being hit by the Ten Fragrance Softening Powder, General Longwei was able to escape from the palace. Ordinary armed forces are useless.

Only elite troops of the level of the Dragon Guards can be sure of victory.

The problem is that the Dragon Guards only have a few hundred people and cannot take care of all the smuggling routes.

If we act separately, it will only weaken our strength, which is not a wise choice.

Coupled with the support of General Long Wei and the masters of the Temple of the Gods, if they really clash, there is a high probability that they will end up in defeat.

"No need to go through so much trouble. You just need to dispatch troops to block four of the routes. As for the rest, leave it to me." Dustin said lightly.

"I understand! This is what my brother meant by luring the snake out of its hole. How wonderful!" Thorian reacted quickly.

Four routes were blocked, leaving only one unattended, intentionally giving General Long Wei hope of escape.

His eldest brother was guarding the exit of this route, waiting for General Long Wei to fall into the trap.

This way we won't alert the enemy and can ensure victory.

As for whether his elder brother could capture General Long Wei, he never doubted it.

Even the top warriors on the champion list died at the hands of their eldest brother, let alone a small General Longwei?

It’s all General Long Wei’s fault for offending the wrong people.

...

The sky gradually brightened.

The search operation in West Lucozia Royal City is still ongoing.

Although Dustin and Thorian already had a plan to capture the enemy, in order to avoid arousing the suspicion of the Temple of the Gods, they still had to do the necessary superficial work.

At this moment, outside the royal city.

In an old house with a yard.

As the mechanism twisted, the secret door hidden behind the bookcase slowly opened.

Immediately afterwards, the crew-haired man Liu Jun, along with several of his subordinates, stepped out first.

After making sure there was nothing unusual, he raised his head and called out, "General, there is no ambush outside, you can come out now."

"Damn it! I'm dying of suffocation!"

General Long Wei walked out of the dark room, cursing, his body dirty and looking a little dusty.

After walking in the dark and damp cave all night, I can finally come out and get some fresh air.

General Long Wei sat down on the chair and poured himself a cup of cold tea.

Just as he was about to drink tea, he seemed to think of something, stopped suddenly, and glanced at Liu Jun.

Those who were poisoned while drinking tea in the palace two days ago are still frightened.

"Don't worry, General. There's no poison in the tea."

Liu Jun reacted quickly, smiled, took the teacup from General Long Wei, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Nothing can be done. Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of the rope."

General Long Wei shook his head and then began to drink tea with peace of mind.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard at the door.

General Long Wei's expression changed and he suddenly drew his sword, as if he was ready to kill someone. - Ton

When the door opened, everyone's attention was drawn to it. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Thorian Rhys walked out with two guards. "Young Prince?!" When everyone saw him, they immediately greeted him with a smile on their faces. Whether it was the general soldier of the city guard, the Grand Secretary of Tianzhang Pavilion, or the general Longwei, they all looked flattering. The gentleman in front of them was a famous devil. Although he had restrained himself a little in the past two years, he still had some power. The prince should at least talk about reason. This guy was a time bomb when he was in trouble. They had suffered a lot in the past. "Young Prince, you finally came out. I have something important to report. Please, young prince..." "Get out of the way!" The Grand Secretary of Tianzhang Pavilion came forward with a charming smile on his face. Just when he was about to say a few words, Thorian Rhys thought he was in t...

Questioning

The law enforcement team worked very efficiently, and in just one hour, they brought all three people back to the palace. When they entered the door, according to Thorian's request, Wang Mang arranged for the three of them to have a brief meeting, but did not give them a chance to speak. Afterwards, the three were taken to different rooms and guarded separately. Due to the identities of the three people, the law enforcement team did not force them. On the contrary, they treated them with good tea and wine. The only restriction is that they cannot leave the room and can only wait to be summoned by the young prince. General Longwei was placed under house arrest in Room No. 1, the city guard commander was placed under house arrest in Room No. 2, and the Grand Secretary of Tianzhang Pavilion was placed under house arrest in Room No. 3. The three people's rooms were close to each other, separated by only a wall. They could see each other when they went out, but they coul...

Arrest and Interrogation

"Um?" Hearing this, even General Long Wei couldn't help but frown. The palace law enforcement team is never dispatched easily, but once they are called upon, it is basically an earth-shattering event. The question is, is a mere legitimate son of the Duncan family qualified to be looked upon by the young prince in this way? "General, are you sure that the royal palace law enforcement team has really been dispatched? And is it because of Zhengjun Duncan?" General Long Wei asked back. "Of course it's true!" The city guard commander said with a serious face: "The higher-ups have just issued an order that the captain of the palace law enforcement team will temporarily take over my position as commander. Now the city defense affairs, including public security investigations, are under the full control of the law enforcement team!" "Strange, why would the young prince make such a fuss for such a small role?" General Long ...
