Returning to Luoyang is just talking, and it is impossible to put it into action.

Not to mention that the task has not been completed yet, and there is no way to go back. As far as Cao Miao's heart is concerned, when he left Luoyang, he made a decision, and without a certain certainty, he would not return to Luoyang.

It feels bad to be pinched in the palm of your hand. If you really want to kill him, whether it's Cao Rong or those big clans, it's as easy as a finger. was able to punch the master to death before because those people didn't take him seriously and were caught off guard by him. Seriously, the strength of the two sides is not at the same level at all, and he has almost no room to fight back.

Mulan Ze, he has faced hundreds of rangers chasing and killing. If it weren't for the introduction of the Wu army into the battle situation, driving the tiger and killing the wolf, the consequences can be imagined.

In contrast, it is safest to stay in Wu at present.

Cao Miao did not return to the camp, and his luggage had been moved to Xishifang. Under the command of Zhu Ying, Xi Shifang completed the big blood change, and the people who were close to the whole lady were driven away, and the rest were ordinary slaves and maids. In order to supplement the shortage of manpower, Zhu Ying borrowed a lot of people from Zhao Junfang.

The camp also took the opportunity to arrange a lot of people, which was called protection.

Despite this, Cao Miao was still satisfied. In addition to the improvement of diet, it is also much easier to communicate. No matter how many spies are planted in the Relief Camp, they are not as strict as the people standing outside the small courtyard.

Moreover, among the people seconded from Zhao Junfang, there are many eyes and ears specially arranged by Aunt Ren, and it is much easier to pass on the news.

After only two days of staying, Cao Miao saw Han Dong again.

Han Dong put on makeup, looking like an old man in his fifties, but his lust was undiminished, and as soon as he entered the door, he stared at the maids with squinting eyes, especially the maids dressed as the maids of the Relief Camp, and looked at them again and again, a pair of eyes seemed to be able to take off people's clothes, and those female guards were far away from him, so as not to be insulted by him with his eyes.

Through a screen, Cao Miao met with Han Dong and completed the transmission of information.

Liu Chen escaped safely. With careful preparation and a little luck, he escaped from the turbulent river, and soon found Cao Su, who joined him as a ranger, helping Cao Su to spy on the locally recruited bandits and rangers.

The person who took the captives and escaped that day was indeed Cao Su. He had been lurking nearby, waiting for an opportunity, and when he saw a fire on the scalping hill, he sent people to sneak to the post, got in touch with the captives, and then attacked the people.

After spending more than a month in the mountains, he became more and more adept at raiding and harassing wars. An important reason for this is that his individual abilities can be used to the fullest in a battle of this magnitude. Even if he encounters an opponent with superior strength, he can fight his way out of the encirclement with his martial arts, and even kill the opponent back.

It's a great feeling, it's top-notch.

Right now, he is pondering a big thing: attacking Lu Xun.

After Lu Xun's edict to move to Wuchang was canceled, Cao Su's plan to ambush Lu Xun on the way fell through. No matter how bold Cao Su was, he didn't dare to go deep into Lu Xun's defense area, and in the face of tens of thousands of elite Wu troops and Lu clans, he hoped that Cao Miao could provide Lu Xun with the opportunity to come to Wuchang to invite him, so that he could have a chance to take revenge.

As an important minister, Lu Xun always came to Wuchang to report on his work.

Cao Miao agreed, and after making an appointment with the contact information, she immediately reminded Han Dong that you have been exposed, and it is not appropriate to meet again in the future, so come with a new face.

Han Dong had already prepared, handed over half of the waist card from the gap, agreed on the joint code, and then walked out of the private room and disappeared into the bustling flow of people.

——

Zhu Ying's management ability is not as good as that of the whole lady, a few days later, at the suggestion of Cao Miao, Sun Luban invited the eldest lady to preside over specific affairs, and Zhu Ying concentrated on security and seized the time to practice martial arts. When she recovers, she still has to go back to the trouble-relieving camp.

As soon as the connoisseur stretches out his hand, he will know if there is one. After Mrs. Ren took over Xi Shi Fang, she launched a series of activities, attracting a large number of dignitaries and nobles, and young people.

In order to be able to dine at Xishi Fang at any time, many people took Sun Luban's door, including Sun Wei.

Sun Xu, who has rarely had dealings with Sun Luban, took the initiative to come to the door, his sister was long, his sister was short, and he begged for a long time, and finally got Sun Luban's approval, and left him a room in the private room on the second floor, so that he could come at any time. Sun Shu did not waste this opportunity, and rushed to Xishi Boat that night.

So, in a very "accidental" situation, Sun Shu boarded the Feilu and met with Cao Miao.

From Sun Wei's mouth, Cao Miao learned a lot about the movements of the Wu Kingdom.

First of all, Sun Quan shelved his plan to become emperor and showed a tougher attitude towards the Wu Jun family. The first to bear the brunt is Quan Cong. Sun Quan sent an envoy to the Niuzhu camp to severely reprimand Quan Cong for his negligence in controlling the tribes.

Whether it was the defection of the captives, or the fact that Quan Da Niang made her own initiative and attacked Sun Quan's fleet, Quan Cong had unshirkable joint and several responsibility. As for the attitude behind this, it can be big or small. Quan Cong obviously knew this well, and wrote a letter to ask for sin, showing his loyalty, and imploring the reduction of troops and demotion of the knights, and self-examination behind closed doors.

As for what he thinks in his heart, it doesn't matter, just succumb.

Sun Quan ordered the transfer of Quan Cong back to Wuchang, captured nearly half of the army, demoted him by three ranks, and was reappointed as a lieutenant to assist Sun Jian in suppressing Shanyue in the area of Yangxin and Xiapheasant, and the defense of Niuzhu was taken over by Zhu Ju.

Sun Shu came to see Cao Miao, nominally to ask for advice on fighting in the mountains and forests, but in fact, he was showing goodwill to Mrs. Sun and Sun Luban. In this expedition to Shanyue, the Jiefu battalion will also contribute a part of its troops, and Mrs. Sun will be directly responsible for intelligence and reconnaissance.

Cao Miao smelled something strange from Sun Wei's excitement, and Sun Quan intended to cultivate Sun Wei as Sun Deng's replacement.

From the perspective of personality, Sun Wei is indeed more energetic and malleable than Sun Deng, who believes in Confucianism. From the perspective of identity, as the Marquis of Jianchang, it is more convenient for him to lead the army to fight and accumulate military experience and merits.

In the Confucian concept, the crown prince's command of the army is neither reasonable nor compliant. Sun Quan made good use of this and logically pushed Sun Wei up.

Cao Miao called the insider! This move leverages its strength to show the grandmaster's demeanor.

Cao Miao and Sun Wei hit it off at first sight and talked very speculatively. Sun Shu took the opportunity to make a request, his brother-in-law Pan Zhu wanted to make friends with Cao Miao, hoping that Cao Miao would give him a chance.

Cao Miao inquired about the situation and learned that Pan Zhu was the son of the Fenwei general Pan Jun, and this time he would go with Sun Xi to conquer Shanyue, so he readily agreed.

The next day, Sun Shu came with Pan Zhu and had a good time with Cao Miao.

At this beginning, Cao Miao's social circle expanded rapidly, and many powerful children came one after another, eager to see him. Xi Shifang was full of friends every day, and just the news revealed during the small talk during the banquet was enough for Cao Miao to write countless reports and send them to Luoyang in a steady stream.

In the middle of May, on a fresh morning, a guest appeared uninvited in front of Cao Miao, who had just finished his morning exercise.

"Townsman, don't come unharmed?" The sheep arched his hand, as if he was smiling but not smiling.
