Chapter 154: The Man Who Stalked
"No, your eyes can't be opened, how do you know that there are people up there?" Yingzhao looked left and right, but he didn't see the figure above, so he said to his subordinates.
"My lord, the villain did see a figure on the top of the mountain just now, and there is not only one person." The subordinate affirmed.
Someone on the top of the mountain is spying on themselves and their men?
Ying Zhao knew that although he didn't see it clearly, he understood that what his subordinates said might be right, after all, the Qin people at this time had just fought Feng Rong not long ago, and the enemy would definitely not admit defeat so easily.
At this time, Yingkang Kuaima, who was walking behind, came to Yingzhao, "Third brother, don't check, just lead the team out of Jiankuo Ridge quickly." ”
"Why?" Yingzhao asked puzzled.
"Now is not the time to question, hurry up and lead the team out of Jiankuoling." Ying Kang's low voice was almost an order to Ying Zhao.
"Okay--" Yingzhao no longer raised his eyes to the mountain, and ordered his hand, "Everyone speed up and get out of Jiankuo Ridge as soon as possible." ”
"Nuo ---" so Yingzhao led the people to walk forward quickly, and in the afternoon walked out of Jiankuo Ridge and came to the Guanzhong area.
Along the way, he never saw anyone watching him or encountering Rong Di's soldiers and horses.
Could it be that his subordinates are mistaken? Blinded?
Yingzhao looked at Yingkang beside him with suspicion, and saw that his face was calm and always walked in the direction of Guanzhong.
So Yingzhao stopped talking, so he had to lead the team into the city in the direction of Yucheng.
"My lord, there seems to be someone following us behind us." When he was about to walk to the city, his subordinates suddenly reminded.
Yingzhao looked back, and saw a few people dressed as merchants behind him, always riding horses with his team, and following them all the way south from Jiankuoling.
It seems that what his subordinates said is right!
The enemy had been watching his team, and Ying Zhao's heart couldn't help but tighten, so he asked Ying Kang beside him: "The enemy has been following us, what should we do?" ”
Ying Kang replied: "It's getting late now, let's just go into the city, don't stay in the post house of the country of Yu after entering the city, just find an inn to stay." ”
Find a random inn to stay?
Ying Zhao looked at Ying Kang puzzled, "Why is this?" ”
The more you walked in the direction of Yucheng, the more people came and went, so Ying Kang said, "Third brother, who do you want to spy on us?" ”
"It should be Feng Rong's Tanma." Yingzhao said firmly.
"Yes, yes, if nothing else, it should be Feng Rong's Tanma watching us. However, I think they have been monitoring the merchants in the Jiankuoling area for a day or two. At least since last year's defeat, we have been monitoring the merchants coming down the mountain, and today we just ran into it. ”
Listening to Ying Kang's analysis, Ying Zhao shook his head, "No, maybe they saw us follow us after leaving Qianyi City?" ”
"No, third brother, just imagine, Qianyi City is built on the Pingchuan River in the Qianshui River Valley, and once someone appears around, our defenders will see it clearly. Since we didn't run into the enemy's scout horses when we went out, it means that the enemy who was following us behind us must not have followed us when we went out. Therefore, these people must be Feng Rong's scouts stationed on Jiankuoling Mountain, specially used to probe our news. ”
"You're right, but these are the enemies who are following us or stationed in the mountains to find out the news. Is it any different? Yingzhao asked puzzled.
"Of course, there is a difference, if it is an enemy who is stalking us from the moment he goes out, then they are very clearly aimed at us, and they already know who we are. But if it's a scout in the mountains, it means that they don't know who we really are, so they follow us all the way to find out what is going on with us. Ying Kang said.
After listening to Ying Kang's words, Ying Zhao understood, "I understand, the enemy who is following us at the moment doesn't know who we are, so we deliberately want to find an inn to stay in to confuse them." ”
"The third brother is right, let's discuss how to avoid these people after we stay." Ying Kang said.
"Okay." Yingzhao agreed.
At this time, the sun was already in the west, and it was about to get dark. Yingzhao and the others didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly found an inn near the city gate.
"Is the guest officer sharpening or staying in the hotel?" As soon as he walked in the door, the shopkeeper hurriedly ran over and asked.
"Stay at the hotel, find us a few rooms upstairs near the door." After all, Yingzhao is the head of this outing, and everything depends on him to arrange. Besides, he can also understand that the reason why Ying Kang is dressed as an ordinary guard is that he doesn't want others to recognize him.
"Okay, there are just a few good rooms upstairs, I'll clean up a few masters." Xiao'er happily ran out to clean up the house.
After a while, Xiao Er came out happily, "A few masters, pack up, come with me!" ”
Yingzhao and the others followed the shopkeeper up to the second floor and began to pack up their things.
"The third brother packed up all our gifts, so that the enemy would not see our intentions." While packing up, Yingkang said to Yingzhao.
"Well--, I see." So Ying Zhao ordered people to pack up all the gifts that should be brought to Yu Gong and carry them to his room together.
"Little Er, is there still a room?" Before Yingzhao and the others finished cleaning up, there was a voice from outside the house asking for a room. Judging from the voice, the person who came should not be from the Central Plains.
"The enemy is coming." Ying Kang looked out through the gap in the window and saw three people dressed as merchants walking into the inn.
"Got it." Yingzhao got up and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to clean them up tonight?" Seeing that only three people from the other party entered the inn, Yingzhao had a murderous intention and asked Yingkangdao.
"Don't worry, let me think about it." Yingkang knew that the team led by Yingzhao would not have a problem at all if he wanted to kill the three people downstairs.
"What's there to think about this, are we afraid of them?" Ying Zhao saw that Ying Kang was slow to speak, so he asked.
It's easy to kill someone, but it's not that simple after it's killed. Ying Kang thought for a moment and said, "Killing these people is not a problem at all, but it will also attract the attention of the enemy. The third brother thought about it, and they didn't know who we were at the moment, so they chased all the way to the country to understand our details. But if these people were killed in Yucheng, what would Feng Rong think? In fact, it is equivalent to telling Feng Rong that we have come to the country of Qiu. Third brother, once Feng Rong clearly knows that we have come to the Kingdom of Yu, the rest of the things will not be easy to handle. ”
Ying Zhao listened to it and knew the meaning of Ying Kang's words, once Feng Rong was in trouble, Ying Kang's marriage would really be difficult to handle. So he said, "You can't kill or hide." So what do you think we should do? You can't stay here and spend it with them! ”
Ying Zhao said the same! You can't stay in the inn for fear of revealing your identity!
Ying Kang thought for a while and said to Ying Zhao: "I have a way, don't they want to know our identity?" Then we will take the initiative to contact them emotionally and confuse them. Third brother, you take a few people and leave the inn tonight and go to the Yuguo Post House. ”
Yingzhao nodded, "I see." ”
