Bai Ao went to the guest wine shop and told Xiao Lizhen about the expedition, and after he left, Xiao Lizhen couldn't suppress the surprise in his heart.

"Hurry up and send this news out of the city, report to Shangjing, and let the god of grains know."

The guy was also a little excited: "Call Shangjing in advance to know that there are troops here, so you can prepare for the battle in advance, ambush in advance, and catch the other party off guard!" ”

He hurriedly went out through the back door to make arrangements, while Xiao Lizhen packed up and planned to go north with Zhao Ta in three days.

In the palace, Zhao Ta sat in front of the hall to feed the eagle.

The eagle eagle is already an adult at this time, it is a different species, the adult is later than the ordinary eagle, it is very powerful to stand upright at the moment, the two wings are open, each wing has eight feet long, if you meet a thin body, there is no problem with flying on the camel.

Although Zhao Ta fed it every day, the eagle's favorite food was snakes and insects, but Zhao Ta didn't have the time to catch snakes for it to eat, so it stood on its own and flew to the mountains outside the city to find it.

Just when it first entered Zhongjing City, it actually caught a big python, weighing hundreds of pounds, and threw it in front of Zhao Ta's dormitory.

Zhao Ta looked good, so he asked Ding Er Crab to wash and peel them, then set up a charcoal fire, sprinkled spices, roasted and eaten, and didn't leave any for the eagle.

The eagle eagle was stunned at that time, and kept chanting and flapping its wings.

Zhao Ta didn't know what it meant, that year and Xiao Min in the cave to hide from the Jurchen soldiers met this eagle, with violent means to treat it, it was not happy in its heart, after catching the snake back to test Zhao Ta, seeing that Zhao Ta did not eat, he remembered in his heart, and he caught him many times to disgust him.

But at that time, if you don't eat it, you can't eat it, you can't avoid the pursuers, it's not good to light the fire, and there are no seasonings and the like, how can you eat?

Now it's different, at this time and at that time, not to mention it's still a big python, a group of people are feasting, and they are stupid to see the carving.

The eagle felt deceived, this has been on for many years, the two-legged beast is really insidious, hiding its nature for so many years, just to get the big one, since then the eagle has never caught the snake back.

Zhao Ta fed the carved mutton, the carving swayed on the ground, bouncing, looking very happy, this carving was originally human, and now adults can understand 90% of Zhao Ta's meaning, as for Xiao Min, he can almost comprehend close to 100% of his intentions.

Zhao Ta sometimes sent it out to find out some news, but it would do so, but after he came back, he didn't know how to express many things.

It can understand human speech, people can't understand its call, Zhao Ta watched it flutter its wings and claws, all by guessing, barely able to guess half of the meaning, but it can be regarded as some uses.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, Xiao Lizhen waited for the army in the wine shop, from morning to noon, noon and evening, and no one came to call her, so she was a little panicked.

The guy also felt that it was wrong, and when the two were studying what was going on, Luda entered from outside and told Xiao Li that things had changed, and he was still about to prepare, and it would take another three days to send the army north.

After Luda finished speaking, he picked up the two jars of wine and left, leaving the two people looking at each other in the shop, looking sluggish.

"What, why didn't you send troops?" Xiao Lizhen muttered to himself.

"This is really killing people, the little one has already passed the news out, and at this moment...... At this moment, Lord Xiyin should have received it. "The guy thumped his chest.

"How's that for good? Now send someone over and explain to Lord Xiyin? ”

"Where is this kind of thing easy to explain, if you don't explain it, adults will be angry."

"This is also ......" Xiao Lizhen's expression suddenly moved: "I have thought of a way!" ”

"County Lord, what can you do?" The guy asked anxiously, as a lineman, he actually allowed some fallacies and errors in collecting information, after all, some information came from hearsay, but there was no evidence.

But at the moment, this is different, this first thing is important, it is necessary to move troops, as long as the soldiers and horses move, all kinds of configuration of heavy grain and grass have to keep up, the cost is very huge, and there is also morale accompanied, if you run empty, but there is no ambush to the other side, then morale will definitely decline, which is not good for the military.

The second is that he said conclusively in the intelligence, it is not an anecdote, but accurate information, in fact, there is an element of invitation, which Cheng thought that Zhao Ta suddenly changed his mind and did not send troops.

"Didn't you listen to that big guy just now, it's not that he didn't send troops, something was not ready, and he had to postpone it for three days." Xiao Lizhi thought about it and said, "Isn't that remedy?" Hurry up and send someone to send another secret letter to the god of grains, explaining the reason this time, and then report that the Qin army will send troops north in three days! ”

"That's right!" The guy's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Why didn't I think of this, send a letter to Lord Xiyin, explain it well, and then report that the Qin army will send troops on time in three days!" ”

Xiao Li nodded: "Then don't hurry up and do it." ”

The guy answered, and trotted out the back door......

Zhao Ta and Luda drank each other, and Zhao Ta said: "The wine didn't cost money? ”

Luda nodded: "After the minister finished speaking, he took advantage of Miss Xiao's panic and ran away, and the eldest son didn't spend it." ”

Zhao Tan smiled and said: "This wine is really good, even in Tokyo City, it is considered a good wine." ”

He pondered in his heart that this liquor shop girl might have been in business for many years, and she would be able to work hard everywhere in order to gain a foothold on Jinguo Street, hide her identity, and spy on intelligence every time.

Luda said: "Your Majesty, the minister sees that there are weapons sent in, is it not enough to attack the city in the north?" Want to keep waiting? ”

Zhao Ta said: "I'm afraid it will take a few days, the bed crossbow is enough, the main thing is that there are too few artillery trucks, this time after going to Beijing, it will drive straight into the white mountains and black waters, and the follow-up baggage ordnance can no longer be transported from Tokyo, this time it is good to get together." ”

"Your Majesty is far-sighted, and Weichen admires it." Luda got up and filled Zhao Ta with wine, and Zhao Ta had already drunk two bowls.

The clear and slightly beige wine soup was wafting with a mellow aroma, Zhao Ta picked up the bowl and drank it all, wiped his mouth: "Good wine, really good wine!" ”

In the capital, Xi Yin's face was ugly, and Zong Han was speechless.

Wanyan Zongbi sneered: "Ceres, this is the spy you left in Zhongjing?" In such a major event of military aircraft, thousands of soldiers moved together, but the Qin army did not come at all, and the Tanma ran for three hundred miles without seeing the shadow of the Qin army, and arranged an ambush in vain. ”

Xi Yin didn't look at Zong Bi, took a sip of tea, and then frowned and said: "The matter of intelligence, it is inevitable that there will be mistakes and omissions, and the fourth prince does not need to be angry." ”

Zong Bi said: "It's not that I'm angry, the things on the side can be understood, this is a matter of mobilizing troops, and the ambush has been in place for two days, and I haven't even seen the ghost shadow of the Qin army, and there is no sign for three hundred miles ahead, so the Qin army hasn't come at all!" ”

Xi Yin shook his head: "The information may not be wrong, my line has always been careful, he said conclusively in the letter, he must have done it at that time, the Qin army planned to send troops on that day, something should have happened, and he was blocked from changing his mind." ”

Zong Bi snorted coldly: "You just believe him like that? Even if he is the head of the line, but after all, he did not penetrate into the Qin army, and the source is not reliable. ”

"That thread and Sha Li are in one place, you can contact Zhao Tan, what is reported cannot be groundless, it can only be that something happened that made the Qin army not send troops as planned." Xi Yin said slowly.

"In the same place as the sarrigen?" Zong Bi raised his broom-like eyebrows: "So...... Could it be that there was some accident in Shariqin and the identity of the other party was discovered, so the troops were suspended? ”

Xi Yin was silent, he didn't think about this, but after careful speculation, it seemed unlikely, he didn't figure out this game on the spot, but thought about it in his heart for a long time, and all kinds of changes were close to perfection, where was it so good to be recognized?

Let's just say that the guest came to the liquor store, but it was not bought in the past few years, but it was bought from the original owner for more than 20 years, and it has been in business for more than 20 years.

Some other characters and things also have their own origins and effects, even if they investigate, it is difficult to find out what is wrong, and even if there is a real omission, it will not be discovered in a short time.

He groaned and explained to Zong Bi, Zong Bi listened carefully, after all, this is a big deal, the more he listens, the more dignified his face becomes, it stands to reason that he really shouldn't be noticed by the other party in a short time.

At this moment, someone outside suddenly reported that someone from Zhongjing was delivering a letter.

Xi Yin couldn't help but loosen his brows, and ordered to bring someone in, only to see a man in a green coat and a small hat dressed as a Han man.

The man stepped forward and bowed, then took out the secret letter and held it with both hands.

Xi Yin recognized this person, this is also a thread, the same identity as the wine shop guy, but he did not stay in Zhongjing City, but hibernate outside the city, he said, "Why are you here?" ”

The man said: "Akagi said that the matter is important, and the villain is afraid of making a mistake, so he sent it himself." ”

Chimu He is the guy from the guest wine shop, this is the Jurchen name, and the Chinese name is He Mu.

Xi Yin opened the letter and read it from the beginning, but after reading it for a while, he was silent, first passed it to Zong Bi, and then Zong Han, everyone read it.

Then Xi Yin said: "It turned out that the preparation was not complete, and the departure was delayed for three days." ”

Zong Bi nodded: "This line analysis of Qin soldiers may not be fully equipped, but it is also reasonable. ”

Zong Han said: "The ordnance is good, then Zhao Ta'er must be waiting for Tokyo to send something, Shangjing Jian, where does he dare to attack if the equipment is insufficient?" ”

Xi Yin took another sip of tea and looked at Zong Bi: "If it is calculated according to the time of another three days, then the Qin army should set off tomorrow, is the fourth prince ready?" ”

Zong Bi was left behind in Beijing, although Zong Han's official position in the court was higher than him, but the transfer of people and horses in Shangjing, and the movement of grain and grass must be decided by him.

"Ceres, don't worry, before the last ambush, there was a set of plans, and I repeat it again."

Xi Yin nodded, his eyes became a little warm, he wanted to see Zhao Ta again, to see the talented Yuan Yi back then, it was best to see the appearance of the other party when he became a prisoner under the stairs......

Zhao Ta watched Bai Zhan boxing, Bai Zhan fought eagle claw boxing, also known as eagle claw flipper, this is a martial art created by Zhou Tong, not weaker than red boxing, spread very widely, and later generations can also see it.

Boxing is what he taught Bai Zhan, although Bai Zhan's talent is not as good as Bai Ao, but his brain is flexible, their brothers, the eldest Bai is upright, the second Bai is arrogant and arrogant, and he is a tendon, Bai Zhan is balanced in all aspects, and there are no shortcomings that are too prominent.

The eagle eagle squatted beside it, tilting its head to watch Bai Zhan's "hum, hum, hey" drill, it was a little stunned, looking at Bai Zhan's fingers like claws, and the movements he used were clearly what he was good at, but wasn't this a two-legged beast? If you don't have wings, where did you learn your own craft?

The spiritual difference between animals and birds, to put it simply, is whether they know themselves or not, and spiritual birds and animals actually know what they look like, and even if they are not spiritual, they don't know that they are similar to their own kind.

Putting a mirror in front of you, the same kind of people who have no spirit or can't read, don't know why, or think that they don't know where to run and want to grab the territory, open their teeth and claws, roar and rage, and even hit their heads in the mirror, and when they have a headache, they are even more manic and angry.

Like the eagle owl, when he followed Xiao Min to the palace of Shangjing County, the first time he saw the bronze mirror, he knew that the one inside was himself, so he combed his feathers and took a good look at it.

So it can distinguish itself, and it knows what kind of creature the two-legged beast is, and the two-legged beast uses its stunt, which makes it stunned, and its heart can't help but fight.

After a high sigh, he rushed directly into the field, Bai Zhan shouted "It's good" when he saw this, and one person and one bird ping-pong hit one place.

Although the eagle can only be born in a few styles, it has rules, and it can fly, and the eagle claw hand used by Bai Zhan is also well understood, and it actually has the upper hand at the beginning.

Bai Ao aroused the sense of competition in his heart, and secretly wanted to lose to a bird and was afraid that he would not have the face to go out to meet people in the future, so he mixed all kinds of learned martial arts and used them, and equalized them.

Zhao Ta saw that the two of them were fighting wonderfully, but he was afraid of hurting one side, so he stopped after half a day, and the eagle staggered over and shouted, venting his dissatisfaction.

Zhao Ta touched its head, and suddenly remembered, since this person can learn the skills of birds and beasts, can birds and beasts practice the art of people?

He pointed to the palm of his hand and said, "Xiaoxia, why don't I pass you some boxing scripts?" ”

The eagle can understand, thinking that these two legged beasts are powerful, and learning his skills will not suffer.

Looking at the carving and nodding, Zhao Ta pondered for a while, then I will teach you to try a set of drunken eight immortal palm techniques first......

Three days later, when it was time for Zhao Ta's army to march north, Xiao Lizhen waited with a small burden in the wine shop.

But from morning to noon, and from middle to night, no one came to call her at all, she couldn't help but be a little panicked, could it be that her family was left behind?

Just as the sun was setting, the guy ran back out of breath: "County Lord, the Qin army didn't set off at all......"

"Ah, didn't go?" Xiao Lizhen was stunned for a moment, why didn't he set off?

"The villain has traveled all over the four gates to inquire, and there is no sign of moving troops at all, let alone asking for a levy."

"That, that ......" Xiao Lizhi was stunned, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Luda walked in: "Miss Xiao, Your Majesty asked me to come to deliver the decree, because the ordnance is not in place, so I have to delay the time of the northern expedition, probably...... It will probably take half a month before the troops will be able to send troops to Beijing. ”

"Half a month......" Xiao Li couldn't help but fall directly to the chair when he heard this, and the guy next to him was also completely dumbfounded.

Ruda didn't care about the two of them, walked to the wall, picked up the two wine jars and walked out quickly, and walked away without looking back.
