Chapter 296: Conspiracy
"Hmph, it can't be a trick played by the Baiyin people, right?" Gomez's eyes glanced at the only man in civilian clothes on his right.
"Probably not, Prime Minister, since we reduced the taxes of the Baiyin people last year, and found a way to win over some of the moderate nobles among them, their resistance has weakened a lot, although there are still some diehards making trouble in them, but there are differences of opinion within them, and it is not yet a climate for the time being, and our intelligence officers are closely monitoring them."
A man in civilian clothes should have yellow blood, although he has yellow hair, but his eyes are uncompromisingly black, he is Basten, the chief minister of the Imperial Intelligence Department known as the "Eye of Kaman" in the Kaman Empire.
"Nick, how are your preparations?"
Gomez finally looked at the lean man on the right, but the thick military uniform could not hide the bursts of killing intent revealed on his body, like a world-famous sword that had been unsheathed and shone in the sun.
"Prime Minister, please rest assured, what my Nick promised will never be dragged into the mud, everything is going according to plan, and we can do it when the time is right." Like squeezing out a few words in the ice of ten thousand years, with a hint of coldness.
Everyone in the audience was not surprised, and there was no surprise, everyone knew that he was such a cold person.
"Everything is in place, only the east wind is owed, now it depends on whether this guy Qin Duan knows each other or not."
Whispering to himself, the short and fat man of the Kaman Empire, who was above 10,000 people under one person, sighed softly, "I hope our plan can be successfully completed." â
"What doubts do you have in your lordship?"
The young man sitting next to Duke Nick asked in a deep voice, he was Gomez's henchman, the commander of the Imperial Royal Guard, Marquis Claudia, and a rising general of the Kaman Empire.
"Although this guy Qin Duan is greedy, his mind is very smooth. I'm afraid that if he sees any clues, I'm afraid he may not fall for it. "Gomez is not optimistic.
"There shouldn't be much of a problem, this is one of the most important chess pieces we ambushed in the Great Qin people, and if we use it this time, we will lose the value of saving zĂ i, if it is not for the importance of this mission. I am absolutely not in favor of exposing him. Chief Intelligence Minister Basten was sure.
"But will this Qin Duan do it? Will that scruple about Ye Xianggao behind him? Duke Miley asked.
"Qin Dui is ruthless and bold, although Ye Xianggao does not have any conflict with him on the surface now, but when it comes to northwest affairs a few times, the people of the Donglin Party led by Ye Xianggao are pulling Qin Dui's hind legs, Qin Dui will not be unclear, in addition, this Lishan County was originally Qin Dui's territory, take a proverb of the Great Qin people. On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly? Qin Duan has long been intentional, but the time is not ripe, this time we will give him such a good opportunity, with his character, he will not fail to take the bait. Basten carefully analyzed.
"Even without him, as long as we are surprised, I believe we can still achieve the intended goal." A gleam of blood flashed in the eyes of the Marquis of Claudia.
"No, Claudia. In that case, even if we achieve our goal, we will lose a lot, and Ma Yu of Lishan County is not a wasted person. More than 70,000 horses under his command must not be underestimated, do we suffer less losses outside Jiayu Pass? Duke Miley, who had not spoken, interjected.
Duke Miley and Claudia's father were world friends, so Duke Miley's words did not cause Claudia to be unhappy, he nodded slightly in agreement with Duke Miley's words, but added: "Of course, it is good not to take this step, but if the situation changes." That's the only way, it's worth it even if it pays a certain price, as long as it's a war, how can there be no sacrifice?! â
"Okay, let's stop fighting. It's still according to the plan, Claudia, your troops must gradually start to change guards, pay attention to try not to attract attention, the secret agents of the Great Qin people are still very active in our country; Nick, the Fourth Corps must also be prepared, especially in terms of logistics, especially siege equipment, don't be stingy, we had another bumper year last year, and the financial revenue has also increased a lot, I have reported to Your Majesty, this year will continue to increase national defense investment, please rest assured! â
Prime Minister Gomez made a final decision and made a conclusion, his fat face exuding a bloodthirsty smell, and a pair of eagle-like eyes opened and closed at once, and the cold light shone brightly.
Several people here, especially several soldiers, showed excitement on their faces, as long as their worries were resolved, with the combat effectiveness of the troops under their command, they would not fall behind in the confrontation with the army of any country, and several generals had absolute confidence in this.
Just as Qin Duan was discussing with Deng Xian how to deal with the criticism of the opposition forces in the imperial court, in Kaman, thousands of miles away, a huge net had been spread, and it was slowly covering Qin Dui, who knew nothing.
After an afternoon of discussions, Qin Duan had a detailed understanding of the situation in all aspects, especially the development of the Taiping Sect and the Qiankun Dao within the empire, and discussed with Deng Xian how to deal with it.
However, when Qin Shuangying and Song Tianxiong came to report on the night duty and the arrangements for the guards after entering the city, Qin Duan finally felt that he had made a mistake in not bringing a woman this time. Qin Duan, who was trapped by lust all night, couldn't get a good night's sleep, and the deep meaning of the word sleepless sleep has never been so aptly felt.
Early the next morning, Qin Duan got up to exercise and made some necessary preparations for entering the city.
When entering the city, there were some expected episodes, and several "well-informed" news media immediately sent a super team to wait in front of the city gate early in the morning after learning that the military and political envoys of the northwest of the empire were about to enter Beijing to face the saint to report on their work after completing the military mission of Beiloulan, and finally blocked Qin Dui and his party in the west city gate.
Even if Qin Dui used the name of the emperor's majesty waiting to be summoned as a cover, it still failed to make these reporters who were accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves give up, and finally Qin Dui had to agree to be interviewed by reporters first, but each media was limited to answering three questions, and the total time was limited to one hour.
Fortunately, this time Qin Duan had experience and used no comment as a shield for private issues, which made the enthusiasm of the reporters hit a lot, but in view of the fact that Qin Dui's "resolute march into Loulan for the sake of national justice, imperial dignity and humanitarianism" ("Imperial News" words) is not trivial, and the details of this matter in the empire are not very clear, most reporters still focus their attention on this issue.
