The secret stronghold of the Northern Ya Reverse Scale Division was located in a small village five miles outside the city of Luoyi. The mountains and winding paths here are secluded, and it is difficult to find them if you are not familiar with the surrounding terrain.

At this time, Li Jiangyao was sitting in the house, discussing things with the leaders of the Reverse Scale Division, and the Gurt who was coaxed and dragged here by him had also been taken over by the Reverse Scale Division at this time and properly guarded.

Qiao Shengchun, the deputy commander, said: "Fortunately, a rain tonight has somewhat interfered with that strange fragrance of flowers, otherwise, Lao Jianhua's traitor may have arrived one step earlier, and the situation of the adults would be even more dangerous." ”

Li Jiangyao nodded with palpitations. Half an hour ago, he passed by the enemy soldiers who were tracking, and was almost hit by them. The danger is a little scary when I think about it now.

Jiang Junyi, the commander of the arsenal, sighed: "Oh, I really want to see it with my own eyes, what kind of spice is that, and it can play such a miraculous effect." If only a supreme master like Miss Xiahou could detect it, wouldn't it be a tracking artifact. If we have the chance, we need to equip ourselves. ”

"Xiao Jiang, I think you're crazy about clever weapons," Zheng Xiaotong teased: "The most important thing right now should be as far away from that thing as possible!" ”

Qiao Shengchun waved his hand and interrupted the two of them: "Don't talk about these useless things yet." Master Li, please give me an idea of what we should do next. ”

Li Jiangyao was slightly surprised when he heard this: "Huh? You ask me? Before, Shen Lie just asked me to take you all to rescue the prince, but now that the task has been completed, you shouldn't have to listen to my orders anymore. ”

The officials of the Reverse Scale Division present couldn't help but look at each other.

Li Jiangyao's words do make sense. Before Shen Lie returned to the imperial capital, he clearly said that he would let everyone obey Li Jiangyao's instructions and go all out to rescue the prince, but he did not say that after rescuing Li Bing, he would continue to listen to Li Jiangyao.

However, after these days of getting along day and night, everyone has unconsciously become accustomed to his instructions, and besides, the current situation has generated a new crisis, and no one has a good idea of what to do next.

If Li Jiangyao picks a son now, he will immediately make the people of the Reverse Scale Division have a strange feeling that the dragons have no leader.

Qiao Shengchun's official position was the highest, and in the face of Li Jiangyao's question, he found that his answer was not right, and it was not right if he didn't answer, so he coughed a few times in embarrassment, and then looked at his colleagues around him as if asking for help.

Wang Hai, the secretary of the Luoyi branch, was more familiar with Li Jiangyao, and said with a smile when he saw this: "What the lord said is right. However, Shen Changshi also explained very clearly before returning to Beijing, our task is to rescue the prince and Murong Xue. Now that Lord Murong is behind bars again, and the situation is even more dangerous than before, the mission must continue, and we must also be at your command. ”

"Yes, yes, that's right."

"Well, I think that's the same thing."

"It's still Wang Lao's clear thinking."

For a while, everyone in the room agreed.

Speaking of which, in a word: you want to leave us alone, no way!

In fact, Li Jiangyao originally wanted to continue to lead the Reverse Scale Division to do a big job, but it was only because his name was not right and he was afraid that everyone would not be convinced, so he decided to return the command and only participate in the operation as an ordinary person.

But now looking at the reaction of the generals of the Reverse Scale Division, Li Jiangyao finally put his mind at ease and smiled happily: "Okay, since the brothers can trust me, it is incumbent on Jiang Yao to do business as usual!" ”

All the officials bowed their hands in unison and said, "Obey your lordship's orders!" ”

Li Jiangyao beckoned everyone to sit down, and then analyzed: "There are a few things at the moment, we need to sort out the order first, and distinguish the priorities. The first thing was to immediately send someone to the imperial capital to contact Shen Changshi and inform him of the prince's departure from Luoyi; At the same time, arrange manpower to go to Songshan Zen Monastery to take care of it, and ensure the safety of His Royal Highness before the imperial capital sends someone to pick up the prince. ”

Qiao Shengchun hurriedly responded: "My lord, please rest assured, we have already arranged these things during the day." The brothers of the second branch went to the imperial capital to report the news, and the people of the third and fifth branches went to Songshan separately. ”

Li Jiangyao nodded with satisfaction, praised a few words, and continued: "This second thing is to hurry up and interrogate the Gurt I brought back. That guy is a member of the Turkic Ghost Fighting Clan, the ninth of the Thirteen Eagles of Iron Blood, and can be Prince Tanley's bodyguard, and he must have a lot of useful information hidden on him. You have to find a way to get him to spit out everything he knows! ”

"It's our housekeeping skill." Zhou Xing had a cold smile on his face: "Master Qiao is the number one expert in this field in the Reverse Scale Division, even Lord Changshi has to ask him for tricks, that Turkic ghost, his mouth can't stand it." ”

Qiao Shengchun smiled embarrassedly: "Xiao Zhou, don't brag about me and let Master Li laugh." ”

Li Jiangyao suddenly remembered that a few years ago, in the garrison of Metasequoia City, Shen Lie had personally interrogated Zait, the ghost alliance horse bandit who was caught by them. That terrible scene scared everyone at that time. Unexpectedly, Qiao Shengchun was actually more powerful than Lao Shen, which made Li Jiangyao feel a little sorry for that Gurt.

He looked at Qiao Shengchun with awe: "Then bother you." Speaking of which, Gurt has the blood of our Saint Tang people on his hands, and it is not a pity to die. But he still has value after all, don't die easily. ”

Qiao Shengchun smiled kindly: "I understand my humble position." When interrogating, I will have a sense of proportion. However, the Turkic ghost has tasted my methods, and will definitely think that it is better to die directly. ”

Li Jiangyao understood that he was not bragging, smiled bitterly, and said: "According to what you just said, after investigation, it can be determined that Master Changxiong Chang has unfortunately died in his post, but Ouyang Jiaoxi's body has not been found, so it is judged that he may have successfully broken through." Then, the only people we need to rescue next are Murong Xue and the two dozen or so Flying Rider Brothers. Is that right? ”

Zhou Xing shook his head: "No, my lord." According to the rules of the Reverse Scale Division, unless they have a special identity or have important information, they will not organize a special force to rescue the members of the Reverse Scale Division who have been captured and captured. Therefore, at present, we only need to save Murong Xue. ”

His simple two sentences were equivalent to directly abandoning those flying captives and sentencing them to death.

The efficiency of the Reverse Scale Division also stems from its ruthlessness.

On the battlefield, sometimes in order to save one, ten of them have to be put inside, which is especially normal for soldiers, because they have the righteousness of comrades who live and die together.

But in the world of secret warfare, the goal is the only thing to consider.

For the sake of the goal, it doesn't matter who dies; If it's not the goal, no one should die.

Li Jiangyao was silent for a moment, as if he had made a lot of determination, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, I think ...... Including Murong Xue, there is no need to rush to save it now. ”

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned.

Everyone knows in their hearts that Li Jiangyao and Murong Xue are classmates in Yanwutang, plus Xu Youchang, the three of them are brothers and sisters, and there is no need to say more about the depth of righteousness. Therefore, it is really a little puzzling that Li Jiangyao said such a thing.

Qiao Shengchun hesitated: "My lord, do you have any concerns?" ”

Li Jiangyao sighed lightly and patiently explained: "Right now, Lao Jianhua has returned to Luoyi from the front line and personally presided over the overall situation. He himself is very scheming, and he is very familiar with the Reverse Scale Division. With such an opponent, we are not sure of winning. ”

He paused slightly, and then said: "Take tonight as an example, he obviously noticed that I was hiding on the beam of Tingyuxuan's house, but he was able to calm down, and he deliberately said that he knew about our secret stronghold, and wanted to catch them all, and then forced me to make a mess in a hurry, and almost became a fool who lured the wolf into the house. If Lao Jianhua repeats his old tricks in the future, using Murong Xue as bait to lure the Reverse Scale Division to come to the rescue, he is likely to jump into his trap again. Besides, that Rui Ji is obviously Lao Jianhua's person, and now she is pregnant, it is really difficult for me to judge whether Murong Xue is willing to leave with us alone. ”

Qiao Shengchun said worriedly: "But if the time drags on for a long time, will Murong Xue be in danger?" ”

"I don't think it's too dangerous for the time being," Li Jiangyao said as if comforting himself, "Lao Jianhua also wants to get some important news from Murong Xue, so he won't kill the killer in a short period of time." I know Murong Xue, this guy is not stupid, and he will not sacrifice himself in vain, once he is sure that he still has chips on him, he will definitely fight with Lao Jianhua to the end. Therefore, it seems to be in a dangerous situation, but in fact there is a hidden life. Then again, only if Lao Jianhua thinks that the Reverse Scale Division has given up on Murong Xue and has all gone away, will he relax his vigilance and provide us with an opportunity. ”

Qiao Shengchun, Zhou Xing and the others nodded again and again when they heard this, expressing their agreement with his judgment.

After convincing the leaders of the Reverse Scale Division, Li Jiangyao mentioned another matter: "I won't tell you that the most worrying issue now is not the safety of one or two people, but the national fortune of the entire Shengtang. ”

Everyone knew in their hearts that he was talking about Xie Guang joining forces with the Turks, and they couldn't help but be worried.

Zhou Xing couldn't help but sigh: "The Turks are storming Xiao Pass, and Xie Guang's old bastard soldiers are forcing Tong Pass, the imperial capital originally occupied the land of Sisai, and it was impregnable, but now it has been made to the back of the enemy, as if trapped in a cage." ”

Wang Hai also had a sad face: "Lord Li, the enemies on both sides are powerful, and now they are colluding together, what should we do?" ”

"I've been thinking about it." Li Jiangyao pondered: "I'm wondering if I want to mess with them." Even if it doesn't work out completely, at least it will slow down the speed at which the two enemies can join forces. ”

"How do you stir the yellow?" Qiao Shengchun was curious.

Li Jiangyao glanced at everyone and said lightly: "Kill the Turkic negotiating envoy - Prince Tanli!" ”
