Chapter 13: Heavenly Machines (11)
"You must also know the relationship between the Tianshan Sect and the Central Plains," Yuan Zhize's tone softened slightly, and I nodded dumbfounded.
"Although the Qiang people are enemies of our Central Plains, they are very friendly in their relations with the countries of the Western Regions, so it is much easier for the Tianshan Mountains to send them to spy on the Qiang people's intelligence. It can be said that the successive chief disciples of the Tianshan Sect were all appointed by the imperial court. ”
Wanyun and Yuan Zhiyu obviously didn't know much about the affairs in the martial arts, and they were stunned when they heard it. "So, what does this have to do with the afterlife..."
"Nomads have a special characteristic, they are busy breeding livestock in the spring, shearing sheep in the autumn, taking care of the young animals, and preparing for the winter in the winter, so the most likely time of the year to launch an invasion of the Central Plains is the summer. Of course, this is not to say that it will not come at other times, but the scale will be very small, but it will be a small fight. Every summer, Yellow Sparrow will take the opportunity of the competition to return to the Central Plains with the information gathered, analyze the time, place and scale of the opponent's possible attack, so that we can prepare in advance. ”
"So... Will Huang Que be exposed, and besides, the countries of the Western Regions will be able to allow him to use his own country as a base to spy on the intelligence of the Qiang people?" Facing my confusion, Yuan Zhize thought thoughtfully: "For you, the Tianshan faction is a martial arts sect, but in the eyes of the imperial court, it is an institution, an institution that governs the exiled Han people in the Western Regions. In addition to the disciples under the sect, there are many people who are secretly attached to the Tianshan faction, and these information are obtained by them in the tiger's den, and the specific work Huang Que and the Tianshan faction do not need to interfere, he only needs to analyze and sort out the collected information, and then send it to the Central Plains on time. Judging from the current situation, the Qiang people did not point their suspicions at the Tianshan faction. ”
"Secretly collect intelligence first, and then send the intelligence back unknowingly under the gimmick of participating in the competition! Big brother, this kind of clever plan must have come up with you, right?" Yuan Zhiyu slapped his hands on the side and admired, indeed, this strategy was planned seamlessly, which made people admire.
"Me?" A smile appeared at the corner of Yuan Zhize's mouth: "This is what Wen Luozhang, the prime minister of the first emperor, came up with, if it weren't for your kid who caused me such a disaster, I would never have told you, I knew it with my father before." How about it, admire, right?" Yuan Zhiyu nodded again and again: "Admire, admire, I really admire." ”
"So," Yuan Zhize's words changed: "Third brother, you must not offend the scholars, although they are not as good as you in war, but if you want to use tricks to conspire, we are far less scheming than them, hahaha..."
Yuan Zhiyu also laughed along, listening to the arrogant laughter of the two, I couldn't help but shudder. "However, big brother, it's not a good thing to be smart," after laughing, Yuan Zhiyu rubbed his bearded chin and said meaningfully: "Let's talk about that Wen Luozhang, he is indeed smart, but it's a pity that he fell into the end, and he was not beheaded by his father, haha..."
Listening to the bloody words coming out of their mouths, the two of them did not have the slightest fear, they were still talking and laughing, I felt my heart beat a little faster, look at Wanyun, she also looked frightened.
"People are often like this, always dissatisfied, always hoping that they will climb higher, don't you know that the higher you climb, the worse you fall, sad man-" Yuan Zhize sighed, his eyes were a little red, and he took the wine glass in front of him and drank it all.
Looking at Yuan Zhize in front of me, I feel both familiar and unfamiliar, his image in my heart for a while is a thoughtful general, a moment and an amiable brother, and a moment into a ruthless prince, which one is the real him, or rather, these sides belong to his soul at the same time? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but gasp.
"Big brother wait until next year to see the information of the Yellow Sparrow, if the Qiang people are not well guarded, we can simply kill the two brothers and take back the corridor. Yuan Zhiyu had obviously drunk too much, and he looked full of confidence.
"It's not easy to fight," Yuan Zhize sighed, stood up and turned to the huge map behind him, and said without looking back: "I'm waiting for the opportunity now, waiting for the day when the Qiang people and Kangju will fight each other." "Great!" Yuan Zhiyu slapped the table excitedly and stood up: "When the time comes, we will come to attack and kill those rabbit cubs." ”
Yuan Zhize shook his head, and no one saw the expression on his face at this time: "It's a pity that my father will definitely not agree." "What, didn't my father keep telling us that we were going to defeat the Qiang people and return to the Western Regions?" Yuan Zhiyu was a little excited, his face was bruised, and he asked hoarsely.
"Returning to the Western Regions is indeed a good thing to greatly boost the country's prestige, but my father is worried that when the time comes, it will be difficult to fight with Kangju for the sake of the annexation of the Western Regions. Yuan Zhize sat back in his seat expressionlessly.
"NND, when the time comes, Lao Tzu will go and destroy him, won't it be over? Yuan Zhiyu chattered and complained. "Don't be rude!" Yuan Zhize glared at him fiercely: "Kangju is a big country, I don't know who will kill the deer if it really fights, what if Xianbei takes the opportunity to attack the Central Plains?" Yuan Zhize's words made his younger brother speechless.
"Miss Xiaoxiao, don't you have any doubts now?" Yuan Zhize turned his head and asked with a pleasant face. "Hmm... I still have a question, does the old man know about this strategy of yours, the Sword Master?" I thought for a moment and said my question.
"Sword Saint?" Yuan Zhize seemed to be stunned for a moment, "You said that old man, didn't he die a long time ago?" Yuan Zhiyu remembered it first, and said nonchalantly on the side.
"Oh, you said him. After being reminded, Yuan Zhize seemed to remember, and said with a haha: "Didn't I already tell you just now, this matter was known to me and my father before, and the sword saint you said was not qualified at all..."
"It's so unbelievable!" I was already extremely angry, I slapped the table and stood up, and looked at the two princes in front of me angrily, they were really too unspeakable, people like the Sword Saint who had made so many contributions to the country and the imperial court, they were so disrespectful in their words and words, and even the Tianshan Sect disciples spying on intelligence kept him in the dark, I really felt worthless for the deceased Sword Saint, it seems that I really have to educate them well today!
"Stop!" Yuan Zhize was not angry, but made a silent gesture with his hand with a smile, and forcibly held back what I wanted to say.
"Miss Xiaoxiao, I know everything you have to say. As soon as Yuan Zhize's words came out, I was suddenly shocked in my heart: Impossible, if he really knew what I wanted to say, then he should know the deeds of the Sword Saint, if this was the case, how could it be such an attitude before.
Seeing that I was stunned, Yuan Zhize got up and patted me on the shoulder, motioned for me to sit down, and said loudly: "Since Miss Xiaoxiao thinks that the two of us are disrespectful to the Sword Saint, then I might as well tell the girl a few stories about the Sword Saint, I promise you haven't heard it before, how about it?"
The story of the Sword Saint? I didn't know what Yuan Zhize was going to say, but Yuan Zhiyu couldn't hold it anymore, he laughed twice, and looked at me coldly on the side, with a mocking look in his eyes.
