"What are you going to do?" Mu Chonglan's eyes widened.

Xiao Xiantang pulled her over, kissed her hard, and then asked funny, "What do you say I'm going to do?" ”

Mu Chonglan: "......"

So, in fact, she knows Xiao Xiantang quite well, right?

"You're not serious." Mu Chonglan sighed.

Xiao Xiantang was happy when he heard this: "This kind of thing, how can it be serious." ”

"......" Mu Chonglan thought secretly, it seems that too, this kind of thing is really not serious.

It's just that with an ascetic expression on his face, it's really strange to say such a thing.

……

"The state capital, now driven to Chaoyang County, that place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is backed by the port, we want to eradicate them, I'm afraid it's not so easy." Yan Hongxin's fingers drew a circle on the sand table.

This place in Chaoyang County is not terrible because it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but what is terrible is that it is backed by a port, and once the officials of those state capitals do not want to clash with them head-on and escape directly by boat, they cannot predict where the officials of those state capitals will sail into the sea from which position.

Come to think of it, those officials in the state capital also took a fancy to Chaoyang County, so they fled to Chaoyang County, thinking that they could attack and retreat.

Ge Lao looked at Yan Hongxin's circled position, and frowned: "This side of the sea is indeed a trouble. ”

"Yes, although Yanzhou is under martial law now, and I plan to stuff everything in the pot, but if those officials in the state capital jump over the wall in a hurry, will they break the jar and stab all the things in Yanzhou, it's hard to say." Yan Hongxin said a little angrily.

They dared to make such a big move before, relying on the fact that although the state capital was angry, they were also worried that their affairs would be exposed, and they were simply hiding it from their superiors, but if this time, they forced the state capital to be anxious, and the state capital might really feel that it was all dead, so it was better to pull them together to cushion their backs, so as to poke out the affairs on the state capital's side.

The smuggling and creation of fake pirates in the state capital over the years are all capital crimes to punish the nine clans.

However, they directly drove out the state capital and captured the Yanzhou state government, isn't it a capital crime of rebellion?

Therefore, if it is really big, the court will not necessarily understand that they have no choice but to do it, but will suspect that they have the intention of rebellion, so they will support the army so much.

"Old Ge, I think the imperial court in Dadu already knows something, but it doesn't really know." Yan Hongxin opened his mouth and said.

"yes." Ge Lao nodded, although they have deliberately cut off all communications, but those people in the state capital are all old foxes who have been officials for many years, in order to save their lives, there will always be some unknown means, and those means, they may not be able to stop them.

What's more, there has been no news from the state capital for a long time, and those high-ranking officials in the capital should also guess something.

"Hey, why are you two still here?" Zhao Yongkang walked in and said to Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin with full anger.

Before, Zhao Yongkang was too worried, so he had always been sick, but now he is in a good mood, but he looks energetic.

Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin looked at each other, and then they both looked at Zhao Yongkang, because Ge Lao was there, Yan Hongxin naturally stood aside, and Ge Lao and Zhao Yongkang talked.

In terms of official position, Yan Hongxin is actually higher than Zhao Yongkang, but in terms of seniority, he is considered a junior among the three.

"Master Zhao, you are in such a hurry, but what happened?" Ge Lao asked suspiciously.

Zhao Yongkang nodded and said, "The lord gave an order over there and told us to dig the reef." ”

"Digging for a reef?" Ge Lao was a little confused, he didn't understand what kind of order this was, even if he asked them to dig sweet potatoes, it still made sense, this digging reef sounded really unbelievable.

"yes, it's just digging for the reef." Zhao Yongkang shook his head, and then said helplessly: "You two, you know all day long to hide in this military tent, and you don't go to the yamen to take a look, there is news here, and I have to come and run." ”

After Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin heard Zhao Yongkang's complaints, their faces were a little strange, since the last time Xiao Xiantang used them as bait, they didn't go to the county government much, and they nested in this Dinghai naval barracks all day long, called recuperating from injuries, but in fact, they were avoiding some Xiao Xiantang.

It's impossible, so it's understandable for them to do so.

Zhao Yongkang looked at the expressions of Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin, and asked a little strangely, "What's wrong?" All of them have such strange faces, but what am I saying wrong? ”

"No, we're just a little curious, and we don't know what we're digging the reef for." Ge Lao snorted and changed the topic.

Although Zhao Yongkang was still full of suspicion, he saw that Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin didn't mean to explain the reason, and they didn't want to say anything more, so they talked about the reef.

It turned out that Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin realized that Chaoyang County was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there were many back roads, and Xiao Xiantang naturally noticed it, so he asked everyone to dig the reef and transport the reef to the sea area of Chaoyang County.

"My lord means, the sooner the better, so don't delay the two of you, hurry up and take the men with me to dig the reef." Zhao Yongkang said.

Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin looked at each other, Ge Lao frowned, and asked, "Master Zhao, isn't this reef digging thing a little ridiculous?" ”

"Ridiculous?" Zhao Yongkang was puzzled.

Ge Lao smiled bitterly and said: "Although this Chaoyang County is not big, the sea area behind it is not small, and if we want to dig reefs to hinder their retreat, we will undoubtedly have to reclaim the sea." ”

"What is Jingwei reclamation, Ge Lao, what are you talking nonsense?" Zhao Yongkang's eyes widened.

Ge Lao smiled and explained: "I am dissatisfied with what Master Zhao said, I just think that the reef is very difficult to dig, and Lord Xiao actually wants to dig out enough reefs that hinder the entire Chaoyang County sea area, how much time and energy does it take, and how much manpower is wasted, not to mention, we can pile it up, and the state capital can also eradicate it, so I don't know what the point is." ”

Zhao Yongkang: "......"

"Moreover, when we go to pile up, the state capital may be going to attack us." Ge Lao said the most important point, and it was also the point that he felt was the most dangerous.

When Zhao Yongkang heard this, he was happy and said, "What I'm afraid of is that they won't come out to attack us." ”

"What?" Ge Lao was stunned for a moment, and then, Ge Lao thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Could it be that reclamation is fake, and luring the enemy is real?" ”
