Chapter 200: The Return
"You see the clue too?"
Zhang Yuan asked tentatively.
The man didn't answer immediately, but walked up to Zhang Yuan and sat down, and said with a smile: "I have long seen that the Heavenly God Sect is a cult, so I took refuge in the imperial court and have been mixed in it, which is to monitor the Heavenly God Sect. ”
"Defect to the imperial court?"
Zhang Yuan was even more puzzled, whether things were a bit too coincidental.
As soon as he complained, a person appeared, saying that he was an undercover agent of the imperial court.
The man could already see from Zhang Yuan's expression, the thoughts in his heart, and said with a smile: "In addition to me, there are more than a dozen people, they are all scattered in various camps, before the last siege of the city, I happened to see that Brother Tai did not drink the talisman water, so I have been following you." ”
"I see."
Zhang Yuan was stunned.
He said, how could the other party appear by his side so coincidentally.
So Zhang Yuan hurriedly asked: "Brother Tai, you said you don't want to be a ghost to send death tomorrow?" Is there a way for you to leave? ”
"Of course."
The man spoke triumphantly.
"Since Brother Tai knows, why don't you leave?"
Zhang Yuan did not ask this person to take his father and son away, but asked the doubts in his heart again.
The man did not hide the truth: "Because I want to make a big vote before leaving, and burn the grain and grass of these rebels." ”
"Without food and grass, they will not be able to last, and when they retreat, the prince only needs to lead the soldiers in the city to pursue, and a battle can determine the Ling'an Mansion, with Lord Li's governance methods, the Ling'an Mansion will inevitably get the people out of hunger and thirst in a short period of time, and even food and clothing."
"Brother Tai's public heart is admired, I don't know Brother Tai's surname?"
When Zhang Yuan heard the man's words, he was in awe.
He turned out not to be for himself, but for the people of Ling'an Mansion.
"Xiao Zhou."
The man said the name that His Majesty had given him personally.
This is also the name that is unique to these spies.
All have the surname Xiao.
The emperor did not hide the meaning of these names, that is, the meaning of exterminating the great clans of the world.
And the duty of these agents is to blend in with these forces.
And he, Xiao Zhou, is nailed to the Heavenly God Sect, and his duty is to use this as a springboard to weaken the Zhou family and even eliminate the Zhou family.
"In Xia Zhang Yuan, I have seen Brother Xiao."
Zhang Yuan got up very solemnly this time and introduced himself to Xiao Zhou.
And he asked his son to do the same.
Xiao Zhou helped the two of them up with a smile and asked, "Brother Zhang, you're welcome, you just need to answer in the next sentence, are you willing to act with me tonight?" ”
When questioning, Zhang Yuan's father and son didn't notice.
Xiao Zhou's hand actually had an extra dagger in his hand at this moment.
As long as the two refuse, Xiao Zhou will end up with the lives of the two as soon as possible.
"This is a good deed for the benefit of the people of Ling'an Mansion, although Zhang is a scholar, he is also willing to serve the power of dogs and horses."
"I'm just like my dad."
After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, his youngest son immediately followed.
Anyway, Zhang Pengfei knows what his father does, and he will follow what he does.
"Good, good, good."
Xiao Zhou saw that the two agreed, and said three good things in a row.
Only then did he say to Zhang Yuan: "That Mr. Zhang, we have to eat and drink enough tonight, and after we burn the big camp of grain and grass, we have to spend a lot of effort to escape." ”
"Isn't it fleeing to Lingwu City?"
Zhang Yuan was a little puzzled.
After all, Lingwu City has recently burned grain and grass to escape, and it is easiest to get shelter.
"Of course not."
Xiao Zhou did not hide it, but said the reason: "The two armies are fighting, no accident is allowed, we burned a large battalion of grain and grass, and fleeing to the city will only be mistaken for us trying to open the city, and when the time comes, we will inevitably be injured by mistake and flee to another place, I have familiar friends, and they will naturally accept us." ”
"That's a fitting arrangement."
Zhang Yuan suddenly realized and looked at Xiao Zhou with admiration.
But he wisely didn't ask where his friend was.
Because he knew that if Xiao Zhou didn't say it, it might be that this place was a secret, and if he asked rashly, he would only be bored.
The same scene played out in various places in the military camp where the Celestial God Cult was located.
The successful ones are to pull up a few companions, and the ones who fail are to wipe out the people who know the news on the spot.
……
Jiang Hong and Li Xing and their entourage spent less than three days day and night.
When the sky was about to get dark, he arrived at the territory of Lingwu.
It's just that along the way, everywhere I passed, there were broken walls and ruins.
They also entered several uninhabited houses to check on the situation.
But there was nothing extra in it except for some corpses lying on the edge of the rice jar.
Apparently it was looted.
The corpses were the owners of the house, and the reason why they died on the rice jar was to protect their family's food.
"Damn, this group of thieves, after the palace is pacified, they must all be beheaded and the three clans must be destroyed."
Jiang Hong made a decision angrily.
Li Xing's face was also ugly.
This strengthened his determination to quickly pacify the northwest.
Even at this moment, Li Xingdu moved, and spent all his reputation points to exchange for an Makqin machine gun and enough bullets.
He wanted to break through all those traitors.
But thinking that after the war, there would inevitably be a large number of casualties and infections, and he had to leave his reputation to prepare for the treatment of the people, so he endured it.
"Prince, Master Li, when Uncle Shi went to Hedong City to deliver the letter, he emphasized that after the two of you returned, you must go to Woniu Mountain first."
At this time, Qingyunzi suddenly thought of the old way's advice.
"Why?"
Jiang Hong and Li Xing invariably asked.
Qingyunzi shook his head and said he didn't know: "This is Uncle Shi's order." ”
"Looks like my uncle has figured something out."
Li Xing had enough trust in Lao Dao, so the group turned their horses around and went to Woniu Mountain.
When they arrived at Woniu Mountain, it was time to arrive.
Seeing that the two thousand elites of Woniu Mountain who had completed their training and were assembling on standby, the two understood.
This is the protection that they are afraid of being besieged, and the two of them will not be able to enter the city.
Seeing the arrival of the crown prince, the ninth regiment commander shadow twenty and the eleventh regiment commander shadow twenty-one, who had been waiting here for a long time, hurriedly greeted and saluted.
Jiang Hong jumped off the horse and stopped the two of them: "These false gifts will be waived!" Now tell me about the situation in the city. ”
"Your Highness, please speak in the village."
As soon as Ying Twenty finished speaking, he was vetoed by Jiang Hong: "This palace is not worried about the people in the city, after saying it here, we will go to Lingwu City immediately." ”
When Jiang Hong spoke, Li Xing and the others had already jumped off their horses and walked over.
For the prince's words, Shadow Twenty and Shadow Twenty-One, who were born in the shadow guard, will naturally not disobey.
So he briefly introduced the situation in Lingwu City.
After speaking, he added: "Today, they began to use the Celestial God Sect to attack the city, there are casualties in the city and the Celestial God Sect, we enter the city tonight, the subordinates are worried about arousing the other party's vigilance, tomorrow dawn, they are fighting at the south gate, we rush in from the west gate, we can do it without knowing the ghosts." ”
"No one to defend the West Gate?"
Jiang Hong asked a little puzzled.
