The news came from the Tokyo Intelligence Station of the Northern Intelligence Division.

Time moved forward four days, on the evening of September 2, in front of an ordinary house in the north of Taiping Bridge in the southwest corner of Miyagi in Kaifeng, Tokyo, Houzhou, two black shadows gently knocked out two long and two short ciphers on the door, and the people behind vigilantly looked at the surrounding darkness and flashed in.

The house is already very small in the huge city of Tokyo, with only two houses in front and back, but the location is located in the second row at the intersection of two main streets, and the view is very good, but it is not eye-catching.

The two black shadows walked into the room with a bright light on the left side of the front row, and saluted Zheng Yucong, deputy director of the Northern Department of the Southern Tang Intelligence Department in front of the desk: "Brother Zheng, let's report today's content." ”

"Oh, please take a seat, I'll be right away." Zheng Yucong, who was dressed as a businessman, sped up his hand, quickly sorted out the few pieces of paper in his hand, and turned to the two people.

"Today, there are still carriages No. 3, No. 5, and No. 6 at the south gate that do not leave the south gate of Miyagi until the evening, but they leave an hour earlier than usual." Rao Xingyu, who was thin and small, reported in a low voice.

"When I was waiting for work in a teahouse at the back gate of the palace today, I overheard two eunuchs who went out of the palace to buy things boast that they had cleaned the emperor's jade chariot again today, and they were almost exhausted. Yu Yong, who was physically strong, replied.

"Good! Both of these are very important news! Zheng Yucong became excited, spread out the stack of papers just now, quickly wrote the two messages into the two sheets of paper, and then motioned for the two people to sit closer.

Zheng Yucong picked up the first piece of paper and said excitedly: "Now, the content we need is basically complete!" First of all, after many verifications, the southwest and the south had secretly visited the north from May to June, and finally agreed on a tripartite agreement, which should be that the three families should send troops at the same time this winter, and it is speculated that it is expected to be in the dry season, and it is very likely to be next month! ”

Although this intelligence station in Tokyo is very secretive, according to Lin Feng's intelligence work requirements, it is strictly forbidden to talk about sensitive words such as "intelligence", "enemy", "our", and the name of the country and the name of the person in everyone's daily conversation. They usually used the north to represent the Later Zhou, the southwest to represent Wu Yue, and the south to represent the Southern Han, and used numbers instead of the important ministers of the Zhou state that they focused on.

"Lord Zheng, I remember that Lord Lin said that we must learn to perceive the subtleties, see the branches, and know the end of the book. Does this news indicate that it is possible that the boss in the north will come out in person? Also, does it mean that as long as there is a change in the northern forbidden army, it means that the war is about to begin? Rao Xingyu scratched his head and said.

"That's right! Both of these speculations are very reliable! Everyone has worked hard during this time, and as soon as the news is sent away tomorrow morning, everyone will be more relaxed! Let's sit down and have a good talk. Zheng Yucong was obviously in a good mood today, put the paper in his arms, and said excitedly, "If I were to speculate on this big battle, I would think that this was a big battle that had to be fought." If the north does not fight this year, it will be afraid that we will not be able to lose the tail in the future, and if we fight now, will we not be afraid of adults who have not tasted defeat at all? For them, it's better to play early than late! ”

"Then, if we take a different stance, do we adults have to fight too? The toss is so big, if the north doesn't fight the most, wouldn't it be an empty joke? Yu Yong said with a frown.

"You have so little faith in adults? Rest assured, the adults have a way to get this battle started, and let the war develop exactly according to the route he set! Zheng Yucong said with a smile.

Rao Xingyu immediately interjected: "My lord really has such a god? ”

Zheng Yucong glared at Rao Xingyu and said unceremoniously: "Little Heizi, haven't you already seen it in Tanzhou?" Adults have always predicted God's accuracy, and they are good at dialing thousands of pounds in four or two! He dared to break into the state of Chu with dozens of his subordinates, and sent a hundred people to capture them alive! In the future, Wu Zhen Liaoguo, Zhifu Northern Han, which war is not more than those so-called famous generals in history? ”

"I'm not called Xiao Heizi, Xiao Hei is a coach in Khitan!" Rao Xingyu muttered unconvinced, "Those opponents are weak, and now the opponents are different!" ”

"Stinky boy, still not convinced? In the end, it is a baby from the mountains, and he is shallow! Think about it, what did Lord Lin do in the past to conquer these places one after another? Why did you choose Shouzhou now? If you can't figure this out, you'll never be the best in our business! Zheng Yucong scolded with a smile.

Yu Yong and Rao Xingyu glanced at each other, stunned for a while, their eyes became shocked at the same time, Yu Yong took the lead in speaking: "Could it be that the adults are preparing for this big battle from beginning to end?" ”

"You guessed it!" Zheng Yucong slapped Yu Yong excitedly and said mysteriously, "When did the adults do something that they are not sure of?" Rest assured, this battle is at least an undefeated game! ”

"That's, that's too much, isn't it? If the three sides attack us at the same time, Shouzhou will not have many reinforcements! Defeating a big country with a small state, I can't believe it if you kill it! I have reservations! Rao Xingyu was obviously not confident, shook his head and said.

Zheng Yucong was angry with this little man, slapped him on the back of the head, and scolded with a smile: "You are small, you don't know how to have a small heart, what miracle can't you hold?" Let me tell you, the adult will always have the most hidden hole cards and ultimate, and the miracle will follow wherever he goes! Don't worry, the north only suffers! ”

Rao Xingyu touched the head that was hurt and moved the chair back, but there was still a feeling of unconvincing in his eyes.

"Stinky boy, why don't we make a bet? If I win, you'll introduce me to that fabled sister of yours, right? Zheng Yucong smiled evilly.

"What do you mean by legendary? The doll is the most beautiful in our mountains! But I'm not going to bet on you about my sister! Rao Xingyu was angry, jumped up and shouted.

"I don't believe in this legend all along, the little black man is so bad, how can there be a fairy sister?!" Yu Yong coaxed beside him.

Rao Xingyu was immediately annoyed, jumped up and glared at the two bastards in front of him, and was suppressed by Zheng Yucong's sharp eyes.

"Remember Lord Lin's words, confidence is the best weapon! If you don't have the confidence to win, what are you talking about top fighters?! Okay, the joke is over, let's move on to the news! Zheng Yucong suddenly restrained his smile and said in a condensed voice, "In addition to the information that the northern boss is out of the army, how are you inquiring about the situation of the northern leading generals who may go on the expedition?" ”

Rao Xingyu immediately replied, "I'll say it first." In the name of a military merchant, I successively bribed six subordinates from the general's mansion and a Du Yuhou from the military department, and I also became familiar with them. Until today, it can be regarded as a collection of some information about the famous generals in the Beijing Division and several surrounding knots in the capital by tapping on the side......"

In ancient times, in addition to the regular army, there were often military dependents, miscellaneous servants, merchants, and even prostitutes, etc., to help the soldiers do some miscellaneous work that they were unwilling to do, and to buy and sell anything they urgently needed from these hard-working soldiers who had money and spent money today. The more protracted the war, the more prosperous such "black market trading" becomes. In this five dynasties and ten countries with frequent wars and chaotic military discipline, military merchants have almost become an open matter.

Yu Yong also told the arrangement of buying the Liu'er on the street and inquiring about all kinds of news in Beijing.

"Well, remember your words, the truth is in the details. From tomorrow onwards, you should inquire about the news in as much detail as possible, even if it is an anecdote! Those forbidden army generals, especially those generals who may be selected for their special forces, those people will be our tough opponents in the future! Zheng Yucong confessed solemnly.

The two nodded their heads to indicate that they had made a note of it.

After the two of them left, Zheng Yucong sorted out the most important news during this time, made a few small notes and stuffed them into the collar, and then blew out the candles.

Early in the morning of September 2, Zheng Yucong transformed into a wealthy businessman with a big belly, and went out of the city in a small sedan chair, and disappeared shortly after leaving the city. Four days later, the information from the Northern Intelligence Division was handed to Lin Feng's desk.

After learning the information that Zhou Guo would definitely send troops, just like the negative multiplication was positive, Lin Feng's whole person relaxed and started a new round of announcement offensive in Shouzhou City.
