Chapter 336: The Mission Diverts Handan Suspicion
For a foreign mission of this scale, the officials who follow on the surface are not only responsible for monitoring but also guides at the same time, and secret agents are naturally indispensable to follow in the shadows, otherwise it would be a mess to let the Qin country's mission act indiscriminately in the country?!
The secret agent in the dark was obviously quite keen, and immediately judged that the people of the Qin State were uneasy and kind, and it was already very unusual for such a large cavalry team to appear in the mission, and looking at its ranking, it was obviously an army that could fight.
If it could have been said that it was to protect the gold silk and jade artifacts in the mission, but now, this team has even left the main camp halfway, what is this going to do? Even if it is said that this place is not far from the capital, if you want to retreat, you should go south and retreat to the east of the river. How could it be to the northwest?
Therefore, the secret agents of the Zhao State had to secretly speculate whether the purpose of the Qin State's coming here was just as easy and simple as they said in words. It's a pity that the secret agent's news is still too limited after all, and he doesn't know the news that Zhao Kuo left Handan today.
However, the spies of the Zhao State obviously will not stop there, and the spies who are immediately monitored are divided into three parts by the leader, one immediately follows the Qin delegation to the west, one hurries back to Handan to report to the lord, and the last one is responsible for continuing to follow and monitor the Qin delegation heading to Handan.
As the sun was waning, the secret agents of the Zhao State finally sent the news back to Handan and presented it to the King of Zhao, and Pingyuan Jun, who was the first person in the actual sense of the court, also quickly got the news from the King of Zhao.
The uncle and nephew thought about it for a long time and couldn't guess Qin Jun's intentions.
Sneak attack around the rear? Not to mention that a few hundred people can sneak attack here, then their own defense is too poor, and they somewhat look down on Lian Po and General Tian Dan. What's more, the place is not right, how can you almost arrive in Handan City, and turn your head to sneak attack the party.
Raiding the city? That's even more wrong, although now almost all the soldiers in Zhao State have been evacuated because of the Battle of Changping, but only a few hundred people have to go to attack the city, and it is also a little difficult, the slightly larger city, that is, the officials and the people will eat all the hundreds of Qin troops, and the smaller city, what are you doing to attack that, you want money and no money, you want food and no food.
Disrupting the rear? Now it's not wartime, so what's the point of being messed up by you? On the contrary, it gave Zhao Jun a reason to fight back, didn't he lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot?
Thinking about it, the two of them never thought of the significance of Qin Jun's actions. For a while, there was a long silence in the Longtai Palace. Seeing that the palace defense is about to be locked, it will be troublesome to get out of the palace again, not only himself, but also the transmission of the king's order. And the two of them obviously can't think of a reason even if they are in a stalemate. In desperation, Pingyuanjun decided to take one step at a time.
Immediately suggested to King Zhao: First, the secret agent continues to monitor closely; 2. Inform the garrisons along the way to pay close attention to the objects that can be used, and beware of the attack of a small Qin army; 3. Handan sent two teams of 1,000 people, one to intercept the Qin delegation heading west, and the other to protect the remaining Qin mission.
I have to say that Pingyuan Jun is worthy of being the four gentlemen of the Warring States, and his ability to deal with emergencies is also very good, in the face of the unknown Qin State Mission, there is no hesitation and fear, and the harm that may be caused by the Qin State Mission will be minimized.
Of course, Pingyuanjun's disposition is also mild, if it is more radical, I am afraid that he has already ordered the frontier to prepare for war. A team of hundreds of Qin troops disappeared in his own hinterland, and that was a terrible thing. And the basis for Ping Yuanjun to be so peaceful is because the battle of Shangdang has just ended, and Ping Yuanjun does not believe that the Qin army will take a stand at this time.
When King Zhao heard this, he also nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered it to be done according to what Pingyuan Jun said.
The matter came to an end, and Pingyuanjun also left the palace immediately.
It's just that after leaving the palace, Pingyuan Jun's heart became more and more unable to calm down, and he always felt that he should have missed something important, but he just couldn't remember it.
Pingyuanjun, who was quite irritable, immediately ordered the coachman to change the route and went straight to Lin Shangqing's house.
There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure. Although Plains-kun is already already
In the year of knowing his fate, he still has not experienced as much as Lin Shangqing, an old man in his last years. Perhaps, Lin Shangqing can guess the intentions of the Qin State.
The carriage soon came to the door of Lin Shangqing's mansion, and there were a few sounds of "Bang Bang Bang", and Ping Yuanjun personally knocked on the door of Lin Shangqing's mansion. When the old servant saw that the person who came was Pingyuanjun, he immediately flashed aside and let Pingyuanjun in.
Those who can enter the Lin Mansion without notification, in addition to Zhao Yu, Pingyuanjun is the second person.
Pingyuanjun, who entered the mansion, soon came to the study, but Lin Shangqing had not rested, and was half-leaning on the bed and looking at the book. Seeing Pingyuan-kun coming, he immediately beckoned him to sit down beside him.
Pingyuan Jun was not polite, when he sat down, he then informed Lin Xiangru of the news he got from King Zhao's mouth, and at the same time explained his questions and temporary disposition.
Lin Shangqing, who heard this, frowned slightly, but he didn't know why for a while. If Lian Po or Tian Dan were here, they would definitely not hesitate to take out the map, without much scrutiny, as long as they drew a line along the route of the Qin army's westward journey, combined with Zhao Kuo, who saw off this morning, they would immediately be able to find the final intention of the Qin army - Zhao Kuo.
It's just that Lin Shangqing or Pingyuan Jun are just a civil servant after all, don't say anything about the homework on the map, and being able to understand the map is already well-informed. After all, there is a specialization in the art industry, just like military generals often can't escape the court's deceit, and it is indeed a little embarrassing for a Wenchen to think about the intention of Qin's arrangement.
After thinking for a while, Lin Shangqing finally muttered to himself: "What you said is appropriate, but it is just that the Qin State has spent a lot of time, and I am afraid that the plan will not be too small. It's just that we can't guess. I'm afraid that the Qin State's plan is so big that we will be caught off guard and suffer heavy losses!"
"Hey!" Pingyuan Jun also sighed when he heard this, and said, "If Ma Fujun is still in Handan, he will definitely be able to solve our doubts now. It's just the king...... Hey......"
"Ran......"
Before the word "also" came out, Lin Xiangru seemed to suddenly sound something, his pale face became vivid, and the book in his hand fell to the ground, but Lin Xiangru was unconscious.
Just as Pingyuan Jun was about to ask, Lin Xiangru spoke first, saying, "Quick!"
