118 Anti-room (2)
The three ways planned by the second prince were carried out in an orderly manner under his prediction. When Tuoba Yan chatted with Jimmy, he talked about this expedition as he spoke, and then "inadvertently" revealed the attack on Wuping Pass to her. On the second day, Yereyi listened to Saren's report and learned the news of the attack on Wuping Pass.
In another channel, Alem and Sang Dan chatted, and "accidentally" said the main attack on Wupingguan. Alem asked Sandan to keep it secret, and Sandan happily agreed that he would never tell the second person. It's a pity that a day later, Blacksmith Sun learned the news.
As for Qin Luo's side, Tuoba Yan hesitated for a long time, and finally summoned Qin Luo on the second day, and asked Jimmy to take Qin Luo directly into the palace and wait for the Khan.
It's not the first time that Qin Luo has come to the Khan's dormitory, he has also recuperated here and stayed here for a long time. Since Qin Luo changed from a slave to an official, it was inconvenient for him to go in and out of the Khan's dormitory frequently, especially during a sensitive period like this, and he hadn't been here for several months.
After Jimmy took Qin Luo to the dormitory, he went down. Qin Luo looked at this familiar temple and found that the furnishings were all the same as before, with almost no changes. If you want to talk about change, it means that there is one more ...... Marching map.
Qin Luo saw the marching map hanging at the head of the bed at first sight, which depicted the mountains and rivers of the Chu State, various passes, prefectures and counties. However, on the three words "Wuping Pass", a large circle was drawn.
Wupingguan? Qin Luo found the entire map, and only Wupingguan was circled. It's rare, is the target of Tuoba Yan's attack Wuping Pass?
Just as Qin Luo was in deep thought, the door of the dormitory was pushed open, and Tuoba Yan was late, and apologized to Qin Luo: "I just went to the barracks, I delayed some work, and I made you wait for a long time." ”
"Khan." Qin Luo hurriedly got up and saluted Tuoba Yan.
"Sit down." Tuoba Yan said enthusiastically, "Qin Luo, I've been busy with government affairs recently, and I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"The Khan shoulders the major affairs of the Qiang military state, day and night, clothes and food, it is really hard." Qin Luo said respectfully.
Tuoba Yan faintly felt that Qin Luo didn't seem to treat him as intimately as before. He said bitterly: "Qin Luo, you also know Xiang Qiang's current situation, this time against Chu, I am also forced to fight, don't blame me." I swear that I will never kill the ordinary people of Chu indiscriminately. ”
Forced? How can there be war as a last resort? Qin Luo smiled bitterly and said to the Khan, "Your Majesty doesn't dare. ”
Although Qin Luo said that he didn't dare to blame himself, Tuoba Yan noticed Qin Luo's expression. He found that Qin Luo's face was full of helplessness and sorrow, and he seemed to be in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
Tuoba Yan's thoughts are the same as Jimmy's, not only will he not suspect Qin Luo's collaboration with the enemy, but he feels that Qin Luo cares about his homeland and is not a ruthless and unrighteous person. Tuoba Yan remembered that when Qin Luo took refuge in himself, he was also in a dilemma, and said that he would not participate in the war against Chu.
Those who directly cut off ties with their homeland, and even those who betray their homeland and act ruthlessly, are traitors who are spurned by the world. These people can even betray their home country, and their loyalty makes people have to be suspicious. And Qin Luo has a good grasp of this degree, pretending to be sincere in desperation, and still has a trace of pity for his homeland. But it wasn't too much, and he didn't make a noise to let the Khan let Chu go, which disgusted Tuoba Yan.
So Tuoba Yan saw Qin Luo like this, and sympathized with him even more, so that there would be no suspicion.
"Qin Luo, the state of Chu is the state of Chu, you are you. I won't be suspicious of you just because you're from Chu. Tuoba Yan explained, "I didn't let you participate in the deliberations this time, because I was afraid that you would be in an embarrassing situation and in a dilemma, so the second prince would send someone to stop you." Don't mind. ”
"Khan, thanks to the second prince for not letting me participate, otherwise how would I deal with myself." Qin Luo not only did not resent, but made a gesture of gratitude, "I am now the Khan's adviser, and I should cut off relations with Nan Chu, but I ......"
"I know, I understand." Tuoba Yan persuaded, "I won't force you to do anything unfavorable to Nanchu, this expedition, you should treat it as if nothing happened." ”
"Thank you Khan for your understanding." Qin Luo got up and saluted the khan again.
After Qin Luo returned to his tent, he was still thinking about the map of the Khan's dormitory. It stands to reason that he finally learned the target of the battle, and he should immediately inform the blacksmith Sun. But Qin Luo always felt that it was too easy to obtain information, and it made people feel a little weird.
But just when he hesitated to tell the blacksmith Sun, the blacksmith Sun took the initiative to come to the door.
Qin Luo and blacksmith Sun Ben had an agreement not to meet frequently during this time. But blacksmith Sun couldn't wait now, he ran directly to Danyang City, lingering in front of Qin Luo's tent.
As soon as Qin Luo went out, he saw Blacksmith Sun wandering around pretending there. He looked around vigilantly, guessing that there must be the second prince's guards watching. He pretended not to see Blacksmith Sun, and went directly to a crowded place to take a few turns. The bustling crowd squeezed Qin Luo around, and he quickly got rid of those who were watching.
At this time, Qin Luo went to look for the blacksmith Sun, and the two came to the secret place, and the blacksmith Sun told Qin Luo that what Xiang Qiang wanted to attack was Wuping Pass.
"You know that, too?" Qin Luo looked at Blacksmith Sun in surprise, but he didn't expect Blacksmith Sun to also find out the news.
"yes, isn't it...... Did you find out about it too? Blacksmith Sun asked.
Qin Luo nodded, "I was in the Khan's dormitory and saw the marching map. ”
"I found out through Sandan." Blacksmith Sun informed the source of the news.
"Uncle Sundan?" Qin Luo was suspicious, "How did he know?" ”
"Sandan, he said, it was General Zuo who said it unintentionally." Blacksmith Sun said.
"Alem, it's possible." Qin Luo still knows Alem well, he has a rough heart and a big mouth, and it is easy to say the wrong thing.
But Qin Luo thought about it again, the last time he used the Ale Wooden Horse, although he covered it up very poorly, he was still vigilant. Could it be that Alem's vigilance is limited to the Chu people, and he has no precautions against Xiangqiang people like Sandan?
Blacksmith Sun didn't wait for Qin Luo to think too much, and said directly: "We have to pass on this news immediately." It's just that the person above me just left a few days ago, and I don't know if I can catch up with him. ”
"Wait a minute." Qin Luo said abruptly, "Don't rush to send the news out yet, we haven't determined whether it's true or not." ”
"Even you know, it's definitely true." Blacksmith Sun said, "To be honest, in fact, I am not only the only one below me, but I also got the same news through the other one. ”
"That means it's not just the two of us, but there are other people who also know that the Khan is going to attack Wuping Pass?" Qin Luo asked.
"yes. Now that so many people know about it, there will be no fake news. Blacksmith Sun had no doubt about this.
"That's not right." Qin Luo shook his head, "We've been investigating for so long, and there have been no clues. But on the eve of the expedition, suddenly many people got this information, and I am afraid that the Khan deliberately released this news. ”
"Deliberately released?" Blacksmith Sun Qi said, "Why did he do this? ”
"Anti-intermittent, this is anti-intermittent scheme." Qin Luo finally confirmed that the news of Wuping Pass must have been known by Tuoba Yan and them, deliberately letting himself and the people in Southern Chu know.
"You mean, they're attacking somewhere else, and that's a trick?" Blacksmith Sun asked.
"That's right." Qin Luo said, "We can't be fooled. ”
"What if, they really attack Wuping Pass?" Blacksmith Sun said anxiously, "It's all your guess, if Wuping Pass is lost, Da Chu will be finished." ”
