Generally speaking, all military intelligence information must be listened to in confidential places.
However, the Supreme Emperor is now like this, and there seems to be no need to avoid suspicion anymore.
Alas, just treat him as a non-existent person!
"I asked, is there a fight between the Mobei Expeditionary Army and the Goryeo Army?"
"Sir, that's not the case!"
"Oh, what's going on?"
"According to the information from Qi Qingyun, Tianzhu is currently recruiting troops and building ships, and it seems that there is a big move to be made. In addition, there is also less accurate news that the foreigners in Tianzhu seem to be fighting for some kind of agricultural and sideline products. "
What?
Fighting for agricultural products?
What a strange thing!
Based on their past behavior, which was mainly focused on plundering wealth, when did they start paying attention to agricultural and sideline products?
Even if we are fighting for the golden tree, there is no need to go to such great lengths to fight?
However, this news also indirectly confirmed his previous guess that they were not coveting Fusang.
Because Fuso is a country with very underdeveloped agriculture, and I have never heard of any valuable agricultural and sideline products.
"This matter is quite strange. I ordered Qi Qingyun to investigate further and not to act rashly until the matter is clarified."
"yes!"
Qi Yu can basically conclude that the foreigners' move implies something wrong.
In addition, he also read two other meanings.
First, Tianzhu is currently waiting and looking for fighters. Otherwise, he would not have carried out such time-consuming work as shipbuilding. It is obvious that the other party is not in a hurry.
Second, they are indeed very determined to send troops this time, otherwise, they would not have recruited troops.
Regarding countermeasures, Qi Yu didn't have any special arrangements. He just followed the routine step by step and used troops to stop them.
They are looking for opportunities to fight, so we will be ready and not give them any chance to take advantage of them. They proposed conscription to strengthen their strength, and we also strengthened our troops to take precautions.
Therefore, Qi Yu decided to transfer more than half of the troops stationed on Qiongzhou Island to Gongbang to strengthen the military presence there.
If we just strengthen our defense, it shouldn't be a big problem.
The focus now is mainly on the Great Northern area and Tianzhu, as long as there are no major changes.
Speaking of the Great North, we have to mention Mr. Lu Boxuan, who is under great pressure.
Since receiving the secret decree, he has been immersed in the dilemma of riding a tiger and being unable to get off.
He neither wanted to be the Qin Hui of his time, nor did he want to be a sycophant who deceived the emperor. It was really difficult to choose between the two.
Because he thought hard to no avail, he deliberately slowed down his pace northward.
We set out at noon every day, rested at sunset, and only traveled twenty or thirty miles before we started looking for an inn.
The grinding look is more leisurely than that of a snail walking.
However, there is no use in grinding. Sooner or later, you have to face reality.
Finally, after spending several months, Lu Boxuan walked out of Shanhaiguan at a very fast pace and approached the vicinity of Qijing Yingzhai.
Next, there is a meeting between the two parties.
According to the etiquette system, when the imperial censor who rewards the army arrives, General Qi must open the guard of honor and go out of the camp for twenty miles to greet him.
However, since it was late today, it was not appropriate to perform rituals, so Lu Boxuan set the meeting time for the next morning.
Moreover, he also sent someone to deliver the notice to show that he attached great importance to it.
Don’t be careless in conveying the holy message, otherwise it will fall on people’s lips.
Unexpectedly, in the evening of the same day, Qi Jing, who was convinced, suddenly came over for a private visit.
"Master Lu, are you okay?"
"It turns out that General Qi is here, please take a seat quickly!"
Let's talk first, then serve tea.
Traditional etiquette is essential.
After shooing away the rest of the crowd, Qi Jing relaxed his restraints and acted like an old friend.
"General Qi, please have some tea."
"Haha, I wonder if this tea, old friend, implies the release of military power..."
"You...you guessed it all?"
"So be it!"
Qi Yu's letter explained it so clearly, how could Qi Jing still not understand?
Not only did he fully understand the situation, he also made relevant arrangements immediately.
The first is how to deal with Wang Zhifan's exploration.
According to Qi Xiaotong, this guy wants to be tough but not soft, so he should be treated roughly.
Therefore, Qi Jing adopted the strategy of Wu Wanrong, the unruly military counselor - fishing for bait.
He used a false military document as bait to lure the man named Wang to come and spy.
As a result, I actually caught a fish.
Hong Tao, who was waiting for work, extended his black hand without saying a word. In this way, Wang Zhifan was inexplicably labeled as a suspected Goryeo spy, and was beaten into a pig's head by General Hong's heavy punch.
In terms of both sides' martial arts, Hong Tao could only have a slight advantage, but he couldn't bear the number of people under his command.
What kind of martial ethics do you need to do evil tricks? Just beat him to death.
If the black hands are not enough, then add more black feet!
In short, Wang Zhifan, who was hard to beat with two fists and four hands, couldn't even hold on for ten rounds. He was stomped by a lot of black feet and fainted, and was finally abandoned in the wilderness.
As a result, Wang Zhifan also completed a special personal record.
In other words, he is the only person in China who has been beaten violently by both Qi Xiaotong and Hong Tao. And this 'honor' will definitely be something he will remember for the rest of his life.
After Wang Zhifan woke up, he realized that his leg had been kicked off.
In this case, the investigation will not be completed.
He had no choice but to leave like Kong Yiji.
As for how he arranges it after returning to Beijing, it depends on his lying ability.
This person can be beaten to death, but he must not be killed.
If he were killed, it would appear that he had really found out something, so he was silenced.
It was precisely for this reason that he was able to save his life at the hands of the decisive General Qi.
After taking care of Wang Zhifan, the only thing left was how to negotiate with Lu Boxuan.
Qi Jing felt that since they had known each other for many years, they could not cause any unpleasantness, so they should be handled with caution.

Based on this consideration, he decided to go private first and then make public appearances, so here he is.
Lu Boxuan naturally didn't know that Qi Jing received Qi Yu's advice. At this time, he was still confused about what to do.
Therefore, as soon as he heard the words "release military power", he felt that he was losing face.
"General, is he here to entertain me?"
"No, I'm here to help us both get out of trouble together."
"Oh? How do you plan to solve it?"
"It's a fake show but it's true, launching a military provocation against Goryeo!"
Lu Boxuan was in a high position and naturally had extraordinary knowledge. Therefore, when he heard the words "fake it, make it real", he immediately understood the meaning.
At the same time as he was surprised, he couldn't help but be shocked: looking at General Qi's appearance, he didn't seem to want to give in, but wanted to compete.
