Chapter 298: There is a change in Xiling
In the northwest, Fu Jingchao has been here for more than half a month, and everyone who should know knows it.
On this day, he was watching the news from Shen Xingwan's side, and he was relieved to know that the overall situation in southern Fujian had been determined.
During this time, the Xiling army has been moving constantly, and the northwest side is as stable as Mount Tai, I don't know if I have a plan or no fear.
Hongling said excitedly on the side, "Then does it mean that the northwest is okay now, can we withdraw?" ”
Fu Jingchao looked down at the letter in his hand, "Let's take a look at it again." ”
Qingsi hurriedly came in, "There is an abnormality in the military camp on the side of Shizi Xiling. ”
Fu Jingchao, "What's the situation?" ”
Qingsi said, "According to the report from the spies, there are 50,000 personal soldiers of the regent, who plan to bypass the deep mountains on the side, and the purpose is unknown. ”
Fu Jingchao immediately looked at the map on the table, if he went around the mountain, then he could directly enter the northwest territory.
Xiao Han and the strategists who came with him were alarmed.
The old monster Fushan, the strategist in the house, stroked his beard and looked at the map carefully, "This place has always been known as the Valley of Death, the mountains are dangerous and the forests are primitive, and there are many unknowable dangers hidden in it. They sent people on both sides to explore the way, but no one survived. ”
"Gradually, this place has almost become a forbidden mountain, and no one cares."
Fu Jingchao frowned, "Is the news reliable?" ”
Qingsi nodded, "Reliable, this spy climbs relatively high, and it is easy not to transmit information outside." ”
Old Fushan said strangely, "It's troublesome, if you really let them come." ”
Xiao Han, "It's unlikely, is it possible that all 50,000 troops will be buried in the mountains." ”
Fu Jingchao, "Impossible, since the other party dares to send so many people, it must be certain." ”
There was no one in the study for a while, and things were tricky.
If the border pass is the base camp of the Fu family, then the northwest side is the emperor's henchmen.
The emperor has been strictly guarding the Zhennan Royal Mansion over the years, for fear that they will get involved in the military power in the northwest. Therefore, the Fu family's power in the northwest is really not good, and this kind of thing is not something they can solve.
Old Fushan said strangely, "No matter what, this matter can't be let go, otherwise the northwest will be in danger." ”
Qingsi added, "There should be very few people who know this news, and we can receive it here because of the special identity of the spy, so we can get a glimpse of it." ”
Fu Jingchao pondered for a while, and immediately decided, "Send a greeting to General Zhou, I should come to visit after I have been here for so long." ”
The other party has been silent about his arrival, so only he has taken the initiative.
Zhou Cheng received his greeting and slapped it on the table, "What do you mean by him?" ”
He is a close confidant of His Majesty, and now the relationship between the Zhennan Royal Mansion and the royal family is delicate.
So he turned a blind eye to Fu Jingchao's arrival, and didn't want to have anything to do with him at all.
The deputy general at the bottom said, "He's been here for more than half a month, hasn't he always known each other?" ”
Zhou Cheng said disdainfully, "Lao Tzu doesn't want to see him, and he guess he has nothing to do." ”
Zhou Cheng didn't have a good impression of all the sons of these powerful people in Beijing, and Fu Jingchao was also included.
Another lieutenant general advised, "Looking at his past, this prince is not a straw bale. Since he didn't come to the door at the beginning, it must be the reason why he came now, and it's better to see him. ”
Zhou Cheng threw the post to him and said impatiently, "Then you look at the processing and arrangement." ”
The deputy general moved very quickly, and replied sharply, inviting Fu Jingchao to come to the door for a drink the next day.
The next day, Fu Jingchao changed into neat clothes and took Qingsi to visit the barracks.
When they went, it was the time of the soldiers' morning exercises.
Deputy General Zhang, who was in charge of receiving him, said, "The general took the troops out for drills, and invited the prince and so on." ”
Fu Jingchao said casually, "You go and get busy, don't worry about me, I'll take a look." ”
Fu Jingchao took Qingsi and walked around the front camp slowly, and there were formations training everywhere, which looked like a huge momentum.
Qingsi has been by his side for a long time, and he can be regarded as practicing his eyesight after hearing and seeing these ears, and he whispered, "This General Zhou has good ability, and these soldiers are well trained." ”
Fu Jingchao said indifferently, "If you can win the emperor's favor, it is naturally two brushes." ”
The two were left here, and no one cared for them until the sun rose.
Qingsi wiped her sweat and said, "It shouldn't be the dismount, right?" ”
Fu Jingchao didn't speak, and found a shady place to sit down.
It wasn't until noon that the soldiers had finished eating, and Vice General Zhang was late, "I'm sorry, there are too many things in the barracks, and I'm just busy now." ”
Fu Jingchao said lightly, "It's okay." ”
He was so calm, Vice General Zhang looked up to him by two points, "Shizi, please come with me, the general is waiting for you in the study." ”
When Fu Jingchao entered, Zhou Cheng was eating meat and drinking wine.
Fu Jingchao took the initiative to speak, "General Zhou, don't come unharmed." ”
Zhou Cheng raised his hand and drank all the wine in the bowl, "Why did Shizi such a noble person come here, there is no food and clothes here." ”
No matter how you listen to this, there is a bit of yin and yang.
Fu Jingchao directly found a place to sit down, and said lightly, "I came to the door this time because I wanted to talk to the general about Xiling." ”
Zhou Cheng smirked, "I'm afraid the prince is looking for the wrong person." ”
Fu Jingchao stared at him, "There is an abnormal movement in Xiling, involving 50,000 soldiers, didn't General Zhou receive the news?" ”
Fu Jingchao asked knowingly and suppressed his arrogance.
Sure enough, Zhou Cheng put away his smile and became serious, "The prince can eat indiscriminately, and it is impossible to talk nonsense, you shouldn't be fooled." ”
He has been operating in the northwest for so long, and he has not received any news, Fu Jingchao has only been here for less than a month, can he receive it?
Fu Jingchao said with ease, "What, does General Zhou not believe in the intelligence network of the Zhennan Palace, or does he not believe in me?" ”
Zhou Cheng narrowed his eyes and fell silent.
He suddenly remembered what had recently attracted the attention of all parties.
The regent of Xiling is doing things in Minnan, and he also involves the future princess who is being wanted.
Beforehand, no one got the news.
Zhou Cheng thought of this and said, "That prince didn't tell me, what news did you receive?" ”
Zhou Cheng already had a huge map on his desk, and Fu Jingchao said directly, "The 50,000 personal soldiers of the regent are going to cross the Jiuzhi Mountain into the northwest territory. ”
Zhou Cheng was stunned for a moment and laughed, "Shizi, are you joking with me, everyone in the northwest knows that when you enter the depths of Jiuzhi Mountain, you must go and never return." Jiuzhi Mountain is also known as Suoming Mountain, and Xiling is crazy to send so many people into the mountain. ”
Fu Jingchao sat there, his aura terrifying, "I have accurate sources, this matter can be confirmed, and I ask General Zhou to make plans as soon as possible." ”
Zhou Cheng still didn't believe him, and even suspected fraud, "The prince said, where did your news come from, so that I can judge whether it is true or false." ”
Fu Jingchao's expression was a little colder, "Inside Xiling, can the general believe it like this?" ”
