Chapter 185: Suspicion

Entering the Zhending City Gate, the expected chaotic scene did not appear, and the streets were indeed under martial law, but it seemed that the lives of the people were not affected.

Gu Huai, who entered the city, left the large team of vegetable vendors, and found an excuse to deliver vegetables to the richest long street in Zhending, he just stood at the end of the long street and watched silently, if it wasn't for the fact that there was already a war outside... The scene in front of me is no different from the old days.

It seems that he still thinks that he and Zhu Di are too important, and the rebellion of the vassal king is not a new thing, and the people of Tiannan and Haibei can discuss it after tea and dinner, and places like Zhending have not been affected too much.

The mangzhong on the side whispered something:

"Zhending Mansion has set up the Pingyan Political Envoy Division, some of the officials of the Beiping Local Government Office died, some surrendered, and some fled south to Zhending, all of which were intercepted by the Political Envoy Division, according to the spy report, now a team has been set up, ready to sing a duet with Beiping."

Gu Huai was noncommittal: "After all, we still have to defeat Beiping, this Pingyan political envoy can be justified, and if they can't defeat Beiping, their yamen can only be opened in Zhending." ”

"Yes," Mang Chong bowed slightly, "The deployment map has been sent back, but the military camp is tightly controlled, and there is no way to find out the deployment of troops and the division of generals." ”

"If the imperial court dares to send Geng Bingwen here, Geng Bingwen will not make such a mistake," Gu Huai pressed the straw hat on his head, and the flat shoulder on his shoulders swayed rhythmically, "There are other spies to do these things, and I went into the city to meet some people." ”

Mang Chong nodded, and was about to follow, when the young man walking in front of him asked coldly: "Why do you have murderous intent towards that ordinary person?" ”

Mangzhong was stunned and fell silent.

"Talk, use poison, wait until he comes home and dies in vain, no one will think of you, the idea is very good, and there is also the ruthlessness that a spy should have," Gu Huai didn't look back, "But are you too serious about human life?" ”

This sentence is ridiculous... There is only one thought that lingers in Mangzhong's heart.

This young female spy, who has been in power since Gu Huai took the position and has a code name, showed a contemptuous and disdainful expression for the first time, and she was no longer obedient and shy before.

"I know what you're thinking, it's too easy to die in this year, Beiping is dying, and then it's really going to die, and the incapable people don't die or not only depends on the mood of others, and even the brochure I sent you is very clear, in the face of threatening your life or about to expose your identity, don't be afraid of killing, and I'm here to tell you what life is at stake, isn't it hypocritical and ironic?"

Mang Chong didn't speak, and he didn't know if he didn't know what to say or acquiesced to Gu Huai's statement.

No one paid attention to the man and woman in the noisy street, and naturally they couldn't hear the conversation between the two, Gu Huai avoided one oncoming figure after another, and the words did not stop:

"Happiness and revenge, of course, will make you happy, but you are a spy, and you don't have the ability to do this, ordinary people's lives are also fate, he just verbally teased two sentences, you want him to die?"

"Of course, it would be too much to say this, but at least you don't kill so easily in front of my eyes."

The sun crossed the clouds and shone on the street, Mangzhong stopped, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly: "It's not doing this, what is that?" ”

Gu Huai stopped: "In order to create a better world? ”

This answer was unexpected by Mangzhong, and even affected her mind when she originally wanted to ridicule the young chief officer, she was stunned, and suddenly lost a smile.

This Lord Chief... He's such an interesting person.

"Finding out the information, assassinating the officials, can we create a better world?" Mang Chong wiped the corners of his lips, becoming more and more charming: "It's a pity that his subordinates are all used to kill people... Do you want to guess how many people your subordinates have killed? ”

"Dozens, hundreds? I know your origin is not simple, after all, you are a woman in the secret spy department," Gu Huai turned around, "Actually, if you really want to check, it is still easy to find out, the reason why I didn't go to the place where I put my resume in the palace is just because you have always been honest." ”

He put down his burden: "Put away your set, either be obedient or get out, or you can see if you can kill me too." ”

The sunlight suddenly became blazing, Mang Chong squinted slightly, and the figure of the young chief officer opposite suddenly became a little unreal because of the light on his back.

She has killed a lot of people over the years... High-ranking officials, generals, commoners, especially those who read like the one opposite, enjoyed the feeling of those lives passing under her hands, and had never been so interested in killing a person.

I really want to see if the person on the other side will tremble and scream with fear at the moment of death...

She licked her lips lightly, and the familiar restrained smile appeared on her beautiful face that was not covered even with heavy makeup: "Yes, my subordinates know." ”

"Your Excellency."

……

The 130,000 troops of the imperial court arrived in Zhending, and the degree of food and clothing became a big problem, fortunately, the supply of the three provinces between the rivers was prepared early, which did not make the soldiers who crossed the Yellow River hungry.

I had to be lucky enough to enter the city in the morning, otherwise I would have to be stuck in the road and unable to move.

Seeing this scene, the young general who was patrolling back and forth on a horse finally couldn't hold back the fire in his heart, raised his horsewhip and shouted at the carriages blocking the middle of the road: "Get out of the way, you damn it, the court is quelling the rebellion, what are you people doing with it?" Way! Lao Tzu is going to quell the rebellion, you have to flee for your life to the south! ”

That's right, but when the people who fled all the way down from the north saw the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, who would not be able to resist following behind? This army is in chaos, I heard that the army of the king of Yan is still blocking the road and robbing people, the men are filling the army and the women are grabbing the barracks, and it is safer to follow the army of the court than to wander outside, isn't it?

It is precisely because of this mentality that the rear army that takes the land route is targeted by these people who drag their families and mouths, and I don't know who started it, anyway, the people who are densely packed south on the official road all follow to Zhending, looking at it, the common people are mostly carrying burdens to help the old and the young, and those big families are much more luxurious, and the carriages are endless, and it is precisely because of these carriages that the official road outside the city is blocked, so that more than 30,000 troops can only stare at the camp on the other side of the river.

Seeing that the people were still deaf to their words, and even some rich people were even spreading cloth on the roadside for a picnic, the young general gritted his teeth and was about to reprimand again, but suddenly saw a general who was supported by more cavalry, and rode up to catch up:

"Gu Dudu, but he wants to enter the city? Can you ask Governor Gu to say a few kind words to General Geng, saying that the officials in the city should come out and guide the people? ”

Gu Cheng turned his head and saw that it was Zhang Bao, the general under his command, and said with a smile: "This is not good, people are good at being bullied, horses are good at being ridden, you don't let the soldiers scold and disperse these people, these people will not move... Anyway, when I enter the city, I'll say a couple of words for you. ”

Zhang Baoru was pardoned and arched his hand: "Then thank you general... It's infuriating, the last general followed Gu Dudu to the north, he came to quell the rebellion, but he was sent by General Pan to supervise the grain and grass, and he had to suffer the anger of those local officials all day long... If it weren't for the reputation of the army, the last general would also want to send troops to drive these people away. ”

Gu Cheng frowned: "You are the real power general of my five armies governor's mansion, how can you come to supervise the grain and grass?" Speaking of which, I really didn't see you at the Big Horde... What's going on? ”

Zhang Bao exhaled heavily: "I'm afraid it's because of the Metropolitan Governor..."

"Most of the governors didn't go north, what is the matter with the governors?"

"Gu Dudu, you don't know?" Zhang Bao was stunned, "Now there are rumors in the army... said that the imperial court did not believe in the Dadu Governor, who was related to King Yan, so the Dadu Governor was not allowed to go north, and they also said... And said..."

Gu Cheng snorted: "Say!" ”

“... said that the Metropolitan Governor has been reporting to Yan Weifeng, and we, the generals who came out of the Metropolitan Governor's hands, can't say that we betrayed the imperial court that day..."

Gu Cheng's face was gloomy, and he swept the dense crowd of people on the official road outside the city, and his heart sank.

So that's how it was... No wonder the big camp on the other side of the river always feels wrong these days.

It's ridiculous... The military attache of the first rank of the metropolitan governor, the Zhongshan Wangfu was favored by the country, how could he rebel against the imperial court? Does the person who preaches this have a long brain?

No, it's not true... As the governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, how could he not even grab the main attack? How could he be placed in the Chinese army, and the front were all generals who could only be trained by their own noses in the past?

The imperial court doesn't even believe in generals like themselves who come out of the hands of the Grand Governor?

He suddenly felt a little tired.

"Follow me into the city," Gu Cheng gritted his teeth, "They gave me a house in the city, you rest first, Lao Tzu is going to ask for an explanation!" ”
