The Spring River is plumbing, and there are more and more pedestrians on the streets of Hankou.

A large sedan chair with eight lifts passed through it, stopped next to a teahouse not far away, and a middle-aged man got out of it and walked straight into the teahouse.

"This is not Lord Li's face, you haven't been here for a long time!"

The teahouse guy exclaimed, and when he saw that it was Li Yuandu, the chief bookkeeper of the Chu Palace, he hurriedly stepped forward to call a thousand.

"I went out on business and just came back, but there is a private seat?"

"Look at what you said, you Lord Li can come to our teahouse, that is the blessing of our teahouse. Mr. Li is still sitting in the private room with the southeast window that you often sit in this time? ”

Li Yuandu smiled slightly and nodded.

After the guy served the tea, he retreated, and Li Yuandu looked out the window while drinking tea.

The street scene outside the window has been seen countless times, but there seems to be some kind of obsession, which makes Li Yuandu keep looking at the southeast in a daze.

Just then, the door opened, and a man of good looks entered.

Li Yuandu was quite vigilant, and felt that the footsteps of the person behind him were not as good as the previous guys, so he immediately stretched out his hand to his waist, turned around suddenly, and flashed his firecracker.

"Who?"

The visitor was slightly stunned, but he was not shocked, and there was no nervousness in his eyes, but a smile.

"Master Li doesn't have to be nervous, he just came here, and there is no malice!"

Li Yuandu snorted coldly and said, "No malice? Trespassing without the owner's consent, and saying that there is no malice? Say, are you a remnant of the Taiping Army, or are you sent by Li Hongzhang? ”

The man explained: "Master Li misunderstood and knocked on the door, but for some reason Lord Li seemed to be looking out the window and was distracted, and did not respond. ”

Li Yuandu was stunned for a moment, and then recalled that he was indeed distracted just now. If the other party has malicious intent, you can definitely succeed in making a move just now. But the other side did not do that, indicating that there was no hostility.

"Who are you? What do you want me to do? ”

The man smiled slightly and asked, "Don't you want me to sit down and talk?" ”

Li Yuandu frowned suddenly, but still nodded and asked the other party to sit down.

But the man sat down, but did not declare his name, but poured his own tea and tasted it. Then he took a drink and said, "Good tea, or Jiangnan tea." ”

Li Yuandu endured his displeasure and asked again: "You have already drunk the tea, why don't you report your name?" ”

The man didn't seem to hear it, just looked out the window, and asked, "Lord Li chooses this room every time he comes here, isn't he waiting for someone?" ”

Li Yuandu's eyes suddenly tightened, and a murderous intent flashed. He said coldly, "What's the matter with you?" Are you spying on me? ”

"Don't dare, it just so happens that I like the location too!" The man replied speciously.

"Why?" Li Yuandu was curious.

The man smiled, suddenly stared at Li Yuandu's eyes, and said, "Because this teahouse is the only one facing Jiangnan!" ”

Li Yuandu's heart trembled, and the mention of Jiangnan seemed to touch his sensitive nerves in an instant, he was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "This is Your Excellency's hobby, and it is indeed different." ”

The man asked, "Why?" Isn't that why adults are sitting here? It's a pity that Jiangnan is too far away to be seen at all. ”

Li Yuandu must have suddenly become nervous in his heart. Keeping an eye on each other, what kind of person would ask such a question seems to have a point.

"I don't understand what you mean?"

The man smiled slightly, looked into the distance through the window, and said, "Jiangnan is good, and the scenery is old; The sunrise river flowers are red. In spring, the river is as green as blue. ”

This is a poem about remembering Jiangnan, and the other party didn't finish reading it, so Li Yuandu quickly continued: "Can you remember Jiangnan?" ”

The man said again: "Jiangnan recalls, the most memorable is Hangzhou; Looking for Guizi in the middle of the month in the mountain temple, the county pavilion pillow looks at the tide. ”

Still not finished. It seems to be intentional.

But Li Yuandu's expression was very different, and his voice instantly became excited, adding: "He will visit again!" ”

The man smiled slightly, and continued: "Jiangnan recalls, followed by Wu Palace; Wu wine a cup of spring bamboo leaves, Wu Wa double dance drunk hibiscus. ”

Li Yuandu added: "Sooner or later, we will meet again!" ”

Next, Li Yuandu held back the excitement in his heart and couldn't wait to ask: "But is my mother's family here?" ”

The man stood up suddenly, stood up and saluted: "China S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent No. 9813, but No. 17 in person?" ”

Li Yuandu was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly returned to the military salute and said: "It's finally time for you, I'm the 17th!" ”

It turned out that these two people were both agents of the Chinese S.H.I.E.L.D., and they were just saying a code.

It's just that it's obviously different from the previous codes, it turns out to be reminiscing about Jiangnan, too poetic and picturesque, too meaningful.

"But Number 0 asked you to come to me?" Li Yuandu asked.

No. 9813 nodded and said, "Yes, No. 0 asked me to come and wake you up, from now on, you have been officially woken up, is there a problem?" ”

Li Yuandu nodded and said, "No problem, I have been waiting for this day for twelve years." ”

Twelve years, twelve years of lurking, No. 9813 suddenly stood in awe, and said respectfully: "Very good, from now on, seniors, you need to fully cooperate with our actions." ”

Li Yuandu asked, "Is King Wu going to attack Zeng Guofan?" ”

No. 9813 nodded and said, "That's right, King Wu has issued an order to destroy the Zeng State Domain, please cooperate with our army's actions." ”

"It's nature!" Li Yuandu asked, "Say, what do you want me to do?" ”

No. 9813 then said: "You are the chief secretary of the Chu Palace, can you forge Zeng Guofan's letters and troop transfer orders?" ”

Li Yuandu replied: "I have been lurking by Zeng Guofan's side for ten years, and he has great trust in me, and I can forge Zeng Guofan's letters and transfer orders. ”

No. 9813 was immediately overjoyed and said: "Senior, your task is to forge several letters as soon as possible, one is for Li Hongzhang, and the other is for His Royal Highness King Wu, the content on it is similar, and it is written that Zeng Guofan persuaded King Wu and Li Hongzhang to rebel with him and overthrow the Manchu court. In addition, you write a letter of accusation yourself, and report to the imperial court that Zeng Guofan is plotting to rebel. Two more orders were forged to Wang Jinxi, the commander-in-chief of Hunan, and Zhao Changsan, the commander-in-chief of Hubei, and ordered them to attack the Qing troops in Henan and Sichuan respectively, and the time was set for the third day of the next month. ”

Li Yuandu said: "These are no problem, so what next?" ”

No. 9813 said with a smile: "You only need to do these things enough, then you just have to find a way to get out, our army will launch a surprise attack on the Chu army at that time, and destroy Zeng Guofan with lightning speed, so that Zeng Guofan has no chance to explain and confirm his rebellion." ”

Li Yuandu knew discipline, so he didn't ask much, he could feel that this plan was too subtle, and once it was implemented, Zeng Guofan had almost no room to turn over.

Next, after discussing the contact location and plan, the two went their separate ways.

Li Yuandu, as Zeng Guofan's first staff member when he founded the Hunan Army, won the trust and respect of Zeng Guofan, and after ten years of lurking, he has now become the official to the master of the Chu Palace, and can easily forge Zeng Guofan's correspondence, and even get the order to transfer troops.

To spies like Li Yuandu, there are hundreds of people in Zeng Guofan's camp, they come from major forces, black and white, but only Li Weiguo's S.H.I.E.L.D. is the deepest, as early as twelve years ago, Li Weiguo has already begun to calculate Zeng Guofan, and sent a hundred S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to the major forces in the country to carry out lurking, Zeng Guofan is just one of the targets.

Of course, not only Li Yuandu lurked inside Zeng Guofan's group, but also more than a dozen agents of China S.H.I.E.L.D. infiltrated it, but the later S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were obviously not as good as the people who infiltrated at the beginning, and Li Yuandu was the highest-ranking official among the infiltrators, and could even participate in Zeng Guofan's core decision-making.

It can be seen how far-sighted Li Weiguo was back then, and he was able to send people to infiltrate Zeng Guofan's side more than ten years ago, once exposed by the outside world, this Li Weiguo will definitely become the greatest strategist in the world in an instant, and even Mao Taizu has to be worshipped.

With the cooperation of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, Li Yuandu soon completed the forgery of the letter and the transfer order, and quickly delivered it to Li Weiguo.

"Are the troops ready?" Li Weiguo asked solemnly.

"Back to the king, in the name of military exercises, all units have entered the combat attack position as expected, and they can launch a thunderous blow against the enemy at any time."

Li Weiguo took a deep breath and closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he had already made a decision.

"This king ordered, the battle to destroy Chu has officially begun!" (To be continued.) )
