Chapter 920: Spy Fight
Chapter 920: Spy Fight
Since Li Shimin returned to Luoyang, he has not slept for almost a day, dragging his injured body and dealing with official business overnight, just so that Luoyang's defense can be stronger.
But no matter how Luoyang's defense is arranged, the defense power is definitely not as good as the Tiger Pass, and the Liang army has not even been able to hold the Tiger Pass, so it is naturally more difficult to hold Luoyang.
Originally, Luoyang was extremely difficult to guard, but the families in the city jumped out to add all kinds of chaos at this time, constantly provoking Li Shimin's bottom line without committing crimes, but Li Shimin's hair turned white.
If Dong Zhuo is in Luoyang now, he will definitely kill indiscriminately, regardless of you, and you will destroy the enemy? You can kill a thousand by mistake and never let one go!
Li Shimin didn't dare to learn from Dong Zhuo, if that was the case, his reputation in the family would be completely stinky, and in his opinion, this was the way to die.
Li Shimin's treatment of the family is basically based on appeasement, but the tolerable let the family think that Li Shimin is easy to bully, but it has further fueled the momentum of the family, and his actions have become more and more excessive.
"Hmph, these damn families, do you really think that Ben will not dare to touch them?"
As soon as Li Xiuning walked into the study, he heard his second brother's angry roar, and when he walked up, he saw bamboo slips all over the ground.
Li Xiuning asked as he picked up: "Second brother, which family in Luoyang dares to provoke you to make such a big fire?" ”
"Which? All the families in Luoyang are working against me, if it weren't for the deterrence of the army, I'm afraid they would have tied me up and dedicated me to Qin Hao. ”
Li Shimin is also from a family, where do you not understand the thoughts of the family, now that the coalition forces have not attacked, Luoyang City is already in chaos, so how can it be defended for a long time?
"Second brother, the Luoyang family has fallen to the Kwantung Coalition Army, this is no doubt about it."
Li Xiuning returned the bamboo slip to the case, and said in a deep voice: "During this time, their contact has become more and more encrypted, it seems that they are going to take action, should we ...... in advance?"
As he spoke, Li Xiuning's eyes gradually became cold, and he made a movement to wipe his neck.
A cold light flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he said coldly: "Have you found specific evidence?" ”
"Not yet, the family's side has always been in contact, and exposure is only when they act, and Jinyiwei's side is also elite, acting extremely tightly and barely revealing any flaws, several times we have found clues, but they have been destroyed in advance."
"Alas, the formation of spies is not overnight, although the bad guys have grown several times, they are still very weak compared to the old spy organizations like Jinyiwei and Da He He."
Li Shimin was full of disappointment, he didn't dare to attack the family, but if he took someone casually without definite evidence, then he would be the same as Dong Zhuo in the future, and he would never get the support of any family again, so Li Shimin needed a reason that people couldn't find fault, and 'colluding with the rebels' and 'plotting rebellion' were just right.
Li Xiuning's face was full of guilt, and he said in frustration: "It's Xiuning's lack of ability that disappointed the second brother." ”
"This is a matter of foundation, it can't be reversed by one person's strength, and Xiuning, you've done it well enough."
Li Shimin and Li Xiuning don't know that Jin Yiwei is not so much stronger than bad people, and the Jin Yiwei in their eyes actually includes the Black Ice Terrace.
"Report ...... Qin Shuang, the deputy commander of Liangwei, had something important to see. ”
Liangwei is a spy organization established by Dong Zhuo, which is not inferior to bad people in terms of scale and number of masters, and is currently in the hands of Dong Zhuo and Li Shimin.
Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help flashing a hint of expectation, and he said in a deep voice: "Quick transmission." ”
After a while, I saw Qin Shuang walk in with an excited face, and behind him were Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng.
"Meet the General." The three of them saluted together.
"No need to be polite, when will Commander Qin report it?"
"General Yu, my subordinates and two junior disciples have been checking the fine work in Luoyang City, and through some clues, they finally found the stronghold of Jinyiwei."
A trace of excitement flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he hurriedly said: "At this time, you should put a long line to catch a big fish!" ”
"What the general said is very true, his subordinates and the two senior brothers did not directly arrest them, but secretly sent them to monitor."
Nie Feng glanced at Li Shimin and said in a deep voice: "After a month of squatting, I finally caught a big fish, Jinyiwei's Tianzi No. 2 secret agent. ”
"I'll just say why there's so much movement in the city today, it turned out to be for the arrest of Xiaozuo. Is Jinyiwei's Tianzi No. 2? ”
Li Shimin nodded and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's a big fish." Where is this person? I was going to see him right away. ”
"General, this Tianzi No. 2 is a dead soldier, and after being captured alive, he directly committed suicide by taking poison." Bu Jingyun said in a deep voice.
"What?"
Li Shimin's face instantly became extremely ugly.
Qin Shuang continued: "Although the Son of Heaven No. 2 committed suicide, some confidential information was not burned in time, and his subordinates found some very important evidence, and his subordinates did not dare to make their own decisions, so they immediately came to hand it over to the general. ”
As he spoke, Nie Feng presented some burned and tattered envelopes, and Li Shimin hurriedly took out the top one, and after opening it and looking at it, his face suddenly changed.
"That's not wrong, this is Qin Hao's note, his self-created thin gold handwriting is not something that ordinary people can copy."
"Second brother, look at this list."
Li Shimin took a look at it, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he gritted his teeth and said: "There are so many families involved in Luoyang, aren't they afraid that Dong Gong will settle accounts afterwards?" ”
"Maybe they think that my Liang army can't resist this catastrophe." Li Xiuning sneered.
"General, you're looking at this."
Qin Shuang handed over another letter, and after Li Shimin took it, he said to himself with a solemn face: "Should the inside and outside be together in three days?" Judging by the timing of the letter, it was ...... three days later"
Li Shimin's eyes widened and he said loudly: "Isn't that tomorrow!" ”
Li Xiuning was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Second brother, time waits for no one, now that the evidence is available, we can wipe out these families in advance." ”
Saying that, Li Xiuning was already ready to go out, but Li Shimin said, "No, not now." ”
Li Xiuning showed a confused look in her eyes and asked, "Second brother, why, this is all burning eyebrows." ”
A sneer flashed at the corner of Li Shimin's mouth, and he said coldly: "I was already wary of the family, and now that I know all the causes and consequences, how can I still be afraid of these 20,000 rabble?" ”
The combat power of the soldiers of the family is far inferior to that of the army, and now there are 120,000 Liang troops in Luoyang City, with the 20,000 rabble of the Luoyang family, it may be possible to succeed if there is a calculation or not, but once it is exposed, there is no possibility of success.
Li Xiuning also thought of this and asked, "What do you mean, second brother?" ”
"When they make a move, we are closing the net, so that we can block the mouth of the world."
