Siqin's existence is a threat to him.

Luo Ji's heart to kill him was extremely firm.

Otherwise, they would not have just pacified the war in the west and north, and hurriedly launched this expedition.

Because Luo Ji knew in his heart that he could no longer allow this threat to continue to develop.

So he had to hurry up while he could still finish off the other party in one go.

Looking at this situation now, Siqin undoubtedly prepared a way out for himself in advance.

He didn't flee back to the main city at all, but fled with a team of men and horses who didn't know where to go.

And just yesterday, a wolf cavalry under Li Su's command rushed back to report the news.

A heavy rain the other day made it more difficult for them to track.

So far, no trace of the other party has been found.

This situation made Luo Ji frown.

Can this boiled duck still make him fly?

Staring at the map in front of him that was searched from the Zarkhan steppe, Luo Ji frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.

Until Wang Kai's voice sounded in his ears......

"Your Majesty, Spiegel's secret agent has arrived."

Hearing this, Luo Ji, who had come back to his senses a little, rubbed his eyebrows, and then slowly spoke......

"Let him in."

As he spoke, a man in ragged clothes walked in quickly.

"Spiegel secret spy Lan Que, see Your Majesty!"

"Get up."

While raising his hand to signal the other party to get up, Luo Ji asked directly to the point......

"In the past two or three months, has there been a large amount of grain and grass in this main city? Of course, in addition to food and grass, there may be some other resources, such as ordnance and equipment. ”

Faced with this problem, Lan Que didn't know what to say for a while.

During the war, it was all too common and too frequent to send food and grass to the front line.

If you count them all, you can't count them at all.

After asking this question, Luo Ji himself seemed to realize that this question was not very accurate, so he decisively changed his approach.

"The other party transports ten ** grain and grass resources, but they may cover up these things, such as covering them with thick linen, disguised as something else, and quietly transporting them, do you have an impression of this kind of thing?"

Siqin is a smart and cautious person.

And such people often know how to leave a way out for themselves.

At the same time, on this retreat, it is inevitable to stock up enough food and capital to make a comeback in advance!

Therefore, if the other party did not return to the main city, it must have been hidden in a hidden camp prepared in advance.

And food has a time limit, and if it is hoarded for too long, it will not be eaten after it rots.

Under this premise, the grain problem in the Zarhan steppe country is not particularly abundant.

Therefore, Siqin did not have that condition and kept preparing.

It is too cumbersome to transport back and forth, and at the same time, it is easy to reveal the location of this hidden camp.

So even if you have to prepare, it will only be in these two or three months.

At this time, Luo Ji was already in the extremely limited information, combined with his own analysis and speculation, and narrowed the entire range to a minimum.

In the face of this more precise question, Lan Que also fell into a short period of contemplation.

Then, as if he remembered something, his eyes suddenly lit up!

"Your Majesty, about a month ago, there was a time when the night was not very peaceful, and there was often a sound similar to the carriage dragging to the side of the mine, and the city gate seemed to be open, but it was not very clear to hear, so I couldn't be 100% sure."

Sneaking things out of the city in the middle of the night is completely in line with the characteristics mentioned in Luo Ji's question just now.

Therefore, Luo Ji, who heard this, was also in good spirits, and hurriedly waved at Lan Que, and at the same time pointed to the map in front of him and asked......

"Which mine is it?"

"Your Majesty, this is the one."

"Are you sure?"

Just in case, Luo Ji had to confirm it like this.

In this regard, Lan Que nodded affirmatively.

"Sure! For the past few months, the lowly has been hiding in the mines disguised as slaves. ”

"Good."

As he spoke, Luo Ji's gaze quickly panned over the map.

In the middle of the mine, you can hear the sound of horse-drawn carts dragging around.

That means that the street that the other party is dragging supplies through is very close to the location of the mine.

According to the map, there is only one street that meets the requirements!

And that street leads to the north gate of the main city!

When doing that kind of thing, the other party will inevitably choose the shortest route when confirming that no one is following them, so as not to cause complications.

Therefore, Siqin's hiding place is arranged in the north......

It won't be too close, or they'll find it soon.

But it's definitely not too far, and if you fold halfway, you'll be putting the cart before the horse.

According to Luo Ji's estimates, the distance from this main city on horseback will not exceed ten days at most.

That's a good distance.

The newly obtained information allowed Luo Ji to constantly complete the clues in his mind.

After a moment of estimation, he circled a place directly on the map!

Then early the next morning, he directly called Bai Ze and Bu Rigude over, and ordered the two of them to lead the cavalry team to the north to search for the escaped Siqin.

At the same time as the cavalry team set off, Luo Ji himself was certainly not idle.

When he was in the beginning, he didn't want to occupy these four broken cities, which were better than nothing.

Although in this Zarkhan steppe, there are still two or three ore veins.

However, ore resources are of the more common kind, such as copper ore......

can't say it's a bad street, but it doesn't make Luo Ji too excited.

According to Luo Ji's idea, fill in those mines first, and then throw them here.

Wait for him to push the territory to this side later, and then officially take over.

However, the existing resources in this city, and the hundreds of thousands of grassland people, he will definitely take them away.

Needless to say, the hundreds of thousands of grassland people are cheap labor.

He is now at the time when the civilization of the Ten Thousand Worlds is developing, and there is a shortage of people everywhere, how can he let go of such a large wave of manpower?

At the sound of an order, he decisively ordered the troops under his command to start transporting resources and transferring these populations.

At the same time, he also sent a warrant to the grassland city.

Let them send men to pick them up.

Now the season has just entered autumn, and in early winter, it should be possible to transfer all this group of people to the three grassland cities of his Ten Thousand Realms Civilization.

On the way to the transfer, due to the fact that the spies of Spiegel City who had penetrated into the interior cooperated with their actions.

The steppe people and slaves did not resist much.

Even the rebels who made Siqin almost crazy some time ago behaved very calmly and did not jump out to make trouble at all.

It can be said that it saved Luo Ji a lot of trouble.

So far, except for Siqin's whereabouts unknown, other things are going very smoothly. I want to talk about "The Lord of Ten Thousand Worlds of Civilization" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
