Chapter 113: Ghost Village Stronghold
"How's it going?" In the dim light, a mysterious man dressed in black and wearing a veil asked in a low voice.
"Envoy rest assured, I have successfully provoked Wu Qimai's ambitions, although he is still a little hesitant about usurping the throne, but with my understanding of him, I am afraid that it will not be long before he will tear off the veil of family affection, and then it will be the day when he and Aguda brothers will kill each other!" I saw a middle-aged man in Chinese clothes standing at the bottom of the door respectfully said, this person is the Yelu Nuzhang who provoked Wu to buy and usurp the throne.
"You have done a good job in this matter, and the next thing is to try to like Wu Qimai to usurp the throne, so that no matter who their brothers win or lose, it will be a great good thing for us, if you can successfully destroy the Jin Kingdom in the future, you will be credited with the first credit at that time!" The mysterious man in black nodded with great satisfaction at this time.
"The envoy is polite, these are what I should do, but I don't know ...... the court" At this time, I saw Yelu Nuzhang first say modestly, and then he spoke again, but at the end, he deliberately stopped, and then looked at the man in black and laughed twice, because he knew that the other party must understand what he was asking.
Sure enough, the man in black glanced at Yelu Nuzhang when he heard this, and then said in a low voice: "I have already reported your request to the imperial court, and the imperial court has agreed, as long as you can help our Great Song Dynasty destroy the Jin Kingdom, you will definitely be indispensable for glory and wealth in the future!" ”
Got the assurance of the man in black, Yelu Nuzhang was also overjoyed at the moment, the origin of the man in black in front of him was not simple, he was one of the main intelligence officers sent to the Liao State by the Imperial City Division of the Great Song Dynasty, responsible for plotting against the civil and military officials within the Jin State, and Yelu Nuzhang was the most important one among the officials he rebelled, Yelu Nuzhang persuaded Wu to buy the usurpation before, but in fact, he did not have a good heart. Instead, he is completing the task given to him by the Great Song Dynasty, as long as the Jin civil turmoil is together, the Great Song Dynasty will quickly send troops to destroy the Jin.
Speaking of which, the reason why Yelu Nuzhang betrayed the Liao State at the beginning was because he had some control in the hands of the Jin State, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take the opportunity to rise to the top and achieve his own career. In fact, he also succeeded, and now he is not only the prince of the Jin Kingdom, but also in charge of the affairs of the court, and is deeply trusted by Aguta, so it is said that he should not betray Aguta again.
However, although the Jin State was a country of its own, it was tightly besieged by the Great Song Dynasty, and the actual land under management was not much, coupled with the complete military management in the country, his power as a governor was actually very limited. In addition, the Jin Kingdom was like a dangerous egg, which made Yelu Nuzhang feel even more uneasy, so after coming into contact with the rebels of the Great Song Dynasty, it was naturally easy to take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty.
Next, the man in black on the opposite side asked for some information about the Jin country during this time, and Yelu Nuzhang also answered one by one, and finally he even took out a map of the Jin country's troops to present to the other party, which he finally got his hands on, and when the man in black saw this map of troops. I was also very happy to praise each other a few words.
Under the cover of night, the man in black left the Taifu Mansion of Yelu Nuzhang. There were also people outside the mansion who responded, and at the moment he led people around in the alleys of Huanglong Mansion City, and finally came to a very inconspicuous house, but this house was dark, and the appearance looked very dilapidated, and at a glance he knew that it was an abandoned house that was usually uninhabited. But when these people entered the house, they quickly disappeared without a trace, like a group of ghosts.
Nearly an hour later, in an abandoned village outside the city of Huanglongfu, there was hardly a single intact house in the ruins of the entire village. Even the white bones can be seen between the ruins, and when the night wind blows, the whole village is like a ghost.
Since the Huanglong Mansion was occupied by the Jin State, although the Jurchens did not carry out a massacre as before, but the implementation of iron-blooded rule, the prime of life men were forcibly pulled into the army, women and the elderly also suffered cruel exploitation, which also led to a large number of people in the Huanglong Mansion to move out, in order to curb this momentum, the Jin State implemented a cruel iron law, that is, whenever it is found that someone in the village has moved, then the entire village will be slaughtered, because of this iron law, many villages have been slaughtered, but this has also stifled the phenomenon of Chinese people fleeing.
This small village not far from Huanglong Mansion was one of the villages that was slaughtered, and because the whole village was killed, people in the know generally did not dare to come here, because it is said that someone had encountered a ghost here, and every night, there would be some strange noises here, which also confirmed the rumors of haunting.
In a dry well on the east side of the village, a bright light suddenly appeared very suddenly, with the rumors of haunting here, it is indeed terrifying, but if someone dares to look down from the well, you will find that there are a few people standing there with lamps in the well, and then I saw these people reach out and knock a few times on the well wall, and then a door suddenly opened on the well wall, and the bright light came out from the inside, and then I saw the people inside excitedly said: "Childe, you are back!" ”
"Well, there's nothing going on here, is there?" The person carrying the lantern outside walked in the door as he spoke, and the first person was the man in black who had talked to Yelu Nuzhang in the Taifu Mansion before. After the man in black came in, the people in the room immediately stepped forward to take the lantern in his hand, and then the man in black removed the veil from his face, revealing a very young and somewhat excessive face, and it could even be said that he was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.
"Childe, don't worry, it's very safe here, and it's impossible for Jin Guo to discover this stronghold." The people in the room immediately replied, only to see that this room located in the well is very large, and there are many holes around, and they don't know where it leads, and there are more than a dozen people in the room, men, women and children, but they all look shrewd and capable, they are the spies sent by the Great Song Dynasty to the Jin Kingdom, and they belong to the Imperial City Division, and this is an important stronghold of the Imperial City Division in the Jin Kingdom, through the tunnels here, you can directly reach the Huanglong Mansion City, and the young man just now is the Huanglong Mansion that led people to leave from the tunnel.
"Get pen and paper ready!" I saw that the young man nodded when he heard this, and then immediately ordered that he should send today's information back so that the imperial court could be prepared to deal with it.
Hearing the young man's command, someone immediately sent a pen and paper, and then the young man wrote all today's information, and put it in an envelope along with the troop map to prepare for people to send away, but at this moment, I saw an old man quietly come forward and said to the young man: "Childe, you have been out for so long, and the Jin Kingdom is now a storm, it is really not a place to stay for a long time, so should we also go back, otherwise the prince will definitely worry about your safety?"
