Chapter 94 The Beginning of the Storm, the Princes of Jiannan Road Set Off a Hundred Waves (3)
In other words, the Khitan can recruit killers in Hexi, and can use heavy money to hire troops to knock on the pass, but it cannot create the murder of 21 officials and create a series of incidents afterward.
Therefore, if the Khitan did participate in the disturbance of Xichuan, he must still have allies.
In fact, not only the Khitan, it stands to reason that the Tatar Ministry also has the possibility of meeting the above conditions, but at present, the Tatar Ministry does not mean to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tatar Ministry is not unable to take out the mercenary money to be paid, but it will definitely be quite difficult, and in the case of the Khitan as a strong neighbor next door, it is impossible for the Tatar Department to do so.
However, if this matter is to be finally concluded, it is still necessary to wait for more powerful evidence to be found in that mercenary army, or to wait for Jianzi and Zhang Jinliang to find out the clues in Hexi.
"In terms of understanding of Xichuan, those who have the ability to infiltrate Xichuan before and after the war are the most likely to be in Wu."
Mo Li said, "With Xu Zhihe's temperament, no matter what, disturbing Xichuan, Wu Guo should have a share." Wu has always had close contacts with the Khitan, and there must have been a conspiracy between the two this time. β
Li Congjing agreed with Mo Li's inference.
But he is not without doubts, and there are still doubts in his matter.
The Tang Dynasty has occupied Liangchuan, the forbidden army has not yet returned to the court, the murder of twenty-one officials and a series of subsequent incidents will indeed make Shuzhong chaotic for a while, causing some trouble for the imperial court to implement the Tiancheng New Deal, but it is impossible to really shake the empire's rule over Xichuan.
If others can't be a little bit Li Congjing, it doesn't feel strange, but Xu Zhihe can't be in vain.
Now that you know, why do it at such a big cost?
Because Wu is going to attack Chudi?
This reason is simply not enough.
If Wu wants to attack Chu, it should restrain its mind before the war, prepare steadily, and gather a force for the war, instead of causing trouble everywhere and distracting manpower and material resources.
The most important point, does Xu Zhihe think that Xichuan is unstable, and if Datang wants to stabilize Xichuan, he can't draw too much military strength, and when he attacks Chu, Datang can't do anything about him, so he can only send troops and can't make a difference?
This idea is naΓ―ve.
Xu Zhihe would not be so short-sighted.
Wu State (Empire, the monarch is called the emperor) is indeed much stronger than the Chu State (Kingdom, the monarch is called the king), but the Chu State is not without the strength of a war, even if the King of Chu is sick now, and the national politics of Chu are a little unstable, but take a step back, after the war begins, Li Congjing does not need to draw too many forbidden army troops at all, he only needs to lead 10,000 elite forbidden troops into Chu, which is enough to make Wu unable to eat and go around.
Even if there are many incidents in Xichuan, as long as there is no big army to attack, one or two hundred thousand forbidden troops can be transferred from Xichuan no matter what.
In this way, everything Wu Guo did became a joke.
Li Congjing will not underestimate Xu Zhihe, he believes that Xu Zhihe will not dare to underestimate him, so what is the purpose of his actions?
It doesn't make sense.
"Could it be that there are still some secrets that you and I don't know?"
After listening to Li Congjing's analysis, Mo Li also fell into deep thought, groaning for a while, his eyes suddenly brightened a little, "Could the problem be Meng Yanyi?" It is not impossible to use Meng Yanyi to make a bigger article. β
Li Congjing thought for a moment and shook his head, "How useful can Meng Yanyi be?" In the final analysis, she is just the daughter of a thief, and she is not a princess of the dead country, so she is not so capable. However, "
Li Congjing paused, "Meng Yanyi should be a breakthrough, what kind of secrets are hidden in her, and what the opponent is going to do with her, it remains to be discovered by you and me." I always had a hunch that she wouldn't be the key point, but she would be the one that led to the key point."
"Meng Yanyi, do you have any news?"
"It stands to reason that news should have come back a long time ago."
Since leaving Lu Long four years ago, Liu has followed Li Congjing to travel all over the world, walked many roads, crossed bridges in many places, drank many kinds of wine, and had many beautiful mountains and rivers and colorful scenery, and there have been too many times when she was deeply infatuated, but she has never forgotten the way home, and she has never had the idea of not going home.
The home is a small courtyard, two jars of flowers and plants, a few doors and windows, simple furnishings, swaying green lights, and elm trees outside the window that are higher than the roof.
Although these things are not special, after a long time together, they will become familiar and make people feel familiar.
But of all the things in the world, there is no scholar who is no longer a scholar to make her feel warm, even if she can usually only glance at it from a distance outside the crowd.
This glance will not be noticed, nor will he notice, but it is this glimpse that seems to be out of the way, so that she will always think about it in the countless life-and-death battles in the future, and she must go back.
She couldn't tell if it was the reason why she went back or the reason why she lived.
Just like now.
But Liu carefully knew that this time, she might not be able to go back.
I'm afraid she can no longer be a familiar and distant figure.
The sword had long since broken and she didn't know where it had been lost, and her blood-stained hands could only hold the flute that had been with her all along, giving her more courage to face the seemingly endless killer in front of her.
Killer in black.
The black-clothed killer of the Tsing Yi Yamen.
Fighting and fleeing all the way, Liu Xi's body has been bruised, and the blood lost continues to take away the strength around her, which not only makes her move more slowly, but also makes her eyeliner blurry and dull her thinking.
At this moment, there was not much to remember in her mind, except for the distant emaciated figure, and the only thing she had was to protect the woman beside her.
When did the hunting begin?
Liu Xixian can't remember clearly.
As Meng Yan's unexpected escort this time, their earlier itinerary has been uneventful, although Meng Yanyi has been exploring and visiting Shunjiang, clearly looking for her father, who has long since disappeared, Liu Xixian does not feel that there is anything worth paying attention to.
Until today, when Liu carefully perceived the danger on the side of the road, it was too late to save anything, so he could only protect Meng Yanyi and escape.
Liu Xixian, the nearby MI stronghold, had already remembered in her mind, but she didn't know if she could rush over, because the opponent had focused on blocking the roads leading to those directions, and they had already changed directions several times.
Finally, including Meng Yanyi, there were only four people left beside him, and when the most seriously injured military intelligence officer proposed to stay behind the break, Liu Xian grabbed her, and shook his head with a sad look on his face, "I can't leave." β
Indeed, they were in the middle of the fields, and they were able to rush through the black-clothed shadows of the tea tree to intercept them.
There are interceptors in front and pursuers in the back, and these few of them are too small to escape.
Blood flowed down the arm of the bangdi, along the flute hole all over the flute body, and then dripped from the flute body to the ground, Liu Xian came to Meng Yanyi, she found that the woman in front of her should be said to be a very hard worker, the sweaty face was not too panicked, she said apologetically: "I can't protect you this time, don't blame us." β
The dust had already covered the originally beautiful clothes, mixed with shocking bloodstains, and Meng Yanyi, who was unbearable, smiled sadly, "I don't blame you, you have done your best, no matter what, I should thank you." β
After saying this, Meng Yanyi really bent down and saluted.
Liu Xixian didn't accept Meng Yanyi's gift, she helped Meng Yanyi's trembling arms, and a look of determination suddenly appeared on her face, and she beckoned her companion beside her: "Take off her coat and change it for me!" β
"Totou"
The companion didn't know Liu Xi's intentions, and couldn't help but change color.
Meng Yanyi slowed down, but he also reacted in time, and hurriedly hugged his body and retreated, "This is not good, absolutely not"
"Still stunned, this is a military order!"
Liu Xixian had already begun to remove his clothes.
No matter how Meng Yanyi struggled, she couldn't shake off the powerful hands of the two sharp soldiers, her eyes were tearful, and she pleaded to Liu and whispered: "Liu Dutou, you can't do this, you can't"
Three times five divided by two to change the clothes, Liu Xi couldn't help but say, and stuffed Meng Yanyi, who couldn't help shaking his head, into a dense clump of tea trees, "You hide here, wait for them to chase us and then come out, you go west along the road on the edge of the field, there will be a small town thirty or forty miles away, each other has our stronghold, and you will be safe when you get there." β
Meng Yanyi, who was stuffed into the pile of trees, squatted pitifully, and the struggling movements caused the treetops to cut through her face, and blood beads gushed out from time to time, staining her face like ink.
Liu Xi carefully gripped the bang flute again, and suddenly smiled, "You haven't thought about escaping, you have already exceeded my expectations, and you are alive and well." β
When he finished the last word, the figures of Liu Xixian and the others had disappeared in place.
The footsteps gradually faded away, there was a moment of silence around, sunset embraced the earth, and in the darkness, Meng Yanyi desperately covered his mouth with both hands, preventing himself from making a sound.
Tears ran down her fingers like a stream, and she looked around, suddenly feeling helpless.
This world is so vast and vast, and she is so delicate and small, even if she is swallowed by darkness in the next moment, she can't be shocked at the slightest Meng Yanyi pushed aside the branches, carefully poked her head out and looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, she moved around, and stumbled and ran with her legs open in the moonlight, like a wounded hare.
But there should be no such hare, and the hare will not fall one after the other in the run.
When Meng Yanyi got up immediately after falling for the last time, and stubbornly wanted to run forward, a long-haired figure standing in front of her, that graceful figure, was as difficult to cross as a mountain at this moment.
"Yo, isn't this Little Lady Meng, where are you going in such a hurry? Fleeing under the moon, don't you want to go to meet your lover, giggles"
