Chapter 129: Heroic Spirit (II)
When the internal guards learned that Ye Tao was ready to reveal his identity to attract firepower, on the one hand, they sighed for Ye Tao's courage and pride, and through the news from the secret spies lurking in the Daoming Sect, Ye Tao was undoubtedly already at the top of the Daoming Sect's Eagle Hall elimination list. This list includes key figures in various forces who have direct conflicts of interest with Xiling, or have conflicts with Daomingzong, including members of the royal family and important ministers of Dongping, Chunnan, and Yunzhou, as well as many other figures. Before Ye Tao became the governor, Ye Tao had already ranked among the top 20 on this list for his achievements in popularizing marching chess, establishing the Blood Qi Army, leading the Blood Qi Army to break through the Xiling army, and building landmark buildings. The suggestion for how to deal with it is: "Hope to kidnap in order to obtain the essence of Dongping's ordnance manufacturing technology and construction technology." If it is not possible, it is advisable to get rid of it as soon as possible to avoid serious trouble in the future. And in the new issue of this list, this note has become "a great trouble for the country, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible." ”
The spies and guards have a deep understanding of Ye Tao, and they have no doubt that even if Ye Tao knows this, they will not change the decisions they make now. More likely, he would be more sure of the power that would attract the Daoming Sect's Eagle Hall. Ye Tao's guards were coming, and this news made the internal guards feel a little relieved, but they still had to prepare contingency plans in all aspects.
Late that night, Mo Leng had already learned that Ye Tao had come to Ninghe Town. Even Ye Tao knew the reason why he turned the private interview of Weifu into a public inspection. Although Dongping's intelligence is developed, Xiling has always been the most powerful country on the mainland, and has always had the ambition to dominate the world, and Xiling's intelligence deployment for Dongping for many years is not in vain.
"How is the ground defense force around Ye Tao?" Mo Leng asked.
The members of the Eagle Hall who had just sneaked out of Ninghe Town respectfully reported, "Ye Tao and his party are a total of twenty-nine people. Including Ye Tao, his maid Sophie Marceau, the secretary of the Governor's Mansion engaged in Feng Wei, and the governor of the Governor's Mansion Xu Hankang. Bi Xiaoqing, the captain of the pro-soldier team. Twelve guards. In addition, there were two scribes belonging to the governor's palace, four miscellaneous servants, one groom, and three coachmen. Two apprentices from Yip's Workshop. ”
"Ye Tao's courage is not small, he dares to show his teeth and claws like this." Mo Leng smiled sympathetically, "Haven't those nosy guys in the city gotten the news yet?" ”
"I don't think so."
Mo Leng and his party came to Dongping, naturally they would not take revenge just for Mo Leng's family affairs. Mo Leng originally valued that brother-in-law more, not so much to dote on his wife, but to take a fancy to Xing Yuan's decisiveness. Very promising. Xing Yuan's death, to him, means to a greater extent that some clues on the Dongping side, some hidden one-line contacts have broken the news, as for whether his wife is good to explain, it is not within Mo Leng's consideration at all. And Mo Leng and his party came to Dongping, and some of them did revenge with great fanfare, just to divert their attention. It is convenient for Mo Leng to restore those contacts. Many of these sources in their hands were controlled by Xing Yuan who had mastered the shady affairs of those officials and businessmen, and as soon as Xing Yuan died, many of these people would be relieved. Although Xing Yuan is dead, the evidence he kept in order to control these people must be hidden in the many liaison stations set up by the Daoming Sect in Dongping. Under the joint sweep of the Dongping internal guards and the military. Many of these liaison stations have been destroyed, but these evidences are not necessarily obtained by Dongping. At least, on the surface, the officials and businessmen who were once under their control. It's still alive and well, and it's not been cleaned.
In order to recover these contacts, Mo Leng had no choice but to take risks to come to Dongping and personally control the affairs related to the production of evidence. In the center of the Eastern Plains, there was really not much remaining strength of the Daoming Sect.
Princess Bailian, that is, the female official next to the current Concubine Lian, was removed, which was an eternal pain in Daomingzong's heart. Although this female official does not know martial arts, she is an important chess piece that Daoming Sect has spent almost ten years gradually cultivating. Get news by seducing the Praetorian officers. And let Xiling once occupy an absolute advantage in the series of battles of Xunshan Pass, which once made the lord of Xiling have extremely high hopes for Daomingzong and Yingtang, while Dongping's fierce pursuit destroyed everything. Although there are still many secret spies lurking in Dongping, these people are not high enough to have access to the key information of the power center. Although the other chess piece they arranged next to Concubine Lian did not reveal their identity, because Concubine Lian was once left out in the cold, and after Concubine Lian gave birth to another son, Tan Weiya, for Tan Xiaopei, Concubine Lian's treatment has greatly improved. But there are more people arranged by the Dongping royal family. It was too difficult for that piece to move.
And reconnect with those who were previously controlled by Xing Yuan. It has become a top priority for Yingtang to regain the initiative in the intelligence war with Dongping.
Mo Leng weighed it, he wasn't worried about the people who had been sent out to investigate the abandoned contact stations. Even though some of the middle places of those liaison stations may be monitored by Dongping's secret agents for a long time, these people are all experts, so naturally there will be various ways to deal with them. Is there a need to change the original so-called revenge plan on the side of Kenning River? If Mo Leng was there, he might have laughed when he heard Han Dong remind Ye Tao of those things. If Ye Tao could really exterminate the Daoming Sect, most of the people in the Xiling Martial Arts Realm would rejoice. Daoming Sect's martial arts world in Xiling, even in the martial arts world of the whole world, is not so popular. Although Mo Leng sent people to kill the warden and a few jailers before and after, he had been carefully controlling the intensity of his activities, and he was afraid of the backlash of the Dongping martial arts world. Although there is still a gap between Dongping and Xiling in terms of strength, Dongping's government and opposition, and even the business and martial arts circles are united, compared to the complex and tense situation of Xiling, which is really enviable. Mo Leng knew that with the current strength in his hands, there were two of Eagle Hall Siying, and there were many other good players, if he launched a strong attack, a surprise attack, or prepared an assassination, he would be at least fifty percent sure that Ye Tao would be killed. But he didn't know what the consequences would be if he did. One of the reasons why the martial arts circles in Dongping are not very enthusiastic about serving the imperial court is that the martial arts circles of Dongping, Xiling, Chunnan, and Northern Liao have a tacit understanding and do not actively intervene in the confrontation at the national level. And the assassination of a highly regarded governor is obviously to undermine this tacit understanding. At that time, the pressure on the Daoming Sect in all aspects of the country and the entire continent will be difficult to estimate. If it was Tan Xiaopei who wanted to assassinate, Mo Leng would not hesitate. However, even though the think tank of Daoming Sect put Ye Tao and even Tan Weixin on the list of the top twenty priority elimination, Mo Leng still hesitated: In the end, is it worth it?
