The good news this time came was confusing. I had no idea in advance that there would be such a battle, and I didn't receive any news at all.
After reading Liu Shuai's battle report, they realized that not only were they kept in the dark, but even Liu Shuai and the others, after winning the battle, were still confused and had no idea what the Japanese raid was about. What intention.
"Look at Liu Shuai's intention, this time the Japanese traveled thousands of miles to attack. They neither rested nor prepared their troops. They faced the attack directly as soon as they came up and fought quite aggressively. This..." Shen Haolin looked at it. Looking at Song Jue and then at Bai Meng, he frowned slightly and said, "It doesn't fit their style."
"The Duke is right, it is indeed weird."
Bai Meng nodded. Although he had never really fought against the Japanese on the battlefield, he had dealt with many Japanese spies. In Bai Meng's mind, the Japanese are representatives of scheming, insidiousness and cunning. Others may take one step and look at the other, but before they take that step, they are already ten steps away. will fall into their circle. Such a straightforward attack like this one, without any cover-up or calculation, was really unexpected.
"Do you feel that this attack seems to be a temporary decision, completely motivated by emotion, and eager to prove yourself. If you can win, you will be considered unlucky. Not only do we not have any It's an omen, they probably don't have any preparations over there." Song Jue also agreed with them very much, "What news is there about Xiaocha?"
"I've been watching, but there's nothing strange." Shen Haolin shook his head. They had always paid attention to the movements of the Japanese country. Because they joined forces with Wanyanping to plot against the collapse of Liao and Xia, several of their domestic voices had a lot of weight. The head of the very important family has been questioned and is fighting fiercely. It is impossible for him to have the time and energy to invade the border of Daxia. He told everything he knew and looked at Song Jue, "I don't deny the possibility of being motivated, but judging from the current situation of the Japanese country, thousands of people and hundreds of warships can be gathered to harass the Daxia border. Only a few people can do it. Moreover, Liu Shuai also mentioned in his battle report that the Japanese this time do not look like they have been fighting for many years, but rather... they were gathered temporarily. "
"Really?" Song Jue picked up the battle report again and confirmed Shen Haolin's statement, "What... is this?"
"It's impossible for us to figure out what the Japanese think. We can't..." Bai Meng said jokingly, "It can't be that they really can't live a good life and come here to plunder to replenish themselves, lest they Are you really starving to death...?" Seeing Song Jue and Bai Meng staring at him, he blinked, "You're not really asking me to say it right, are you?"
"This speculation should be the closest to the truth. Either starve to death or die in battle." Shen Haolin sneered, "Based on our understanding of them, it is impossible to choose to starve to death. If you have any strength, you have to fight hard to survive." Go down, that’s why we have such an inexplicable battle.”
"I didn't expect them to be in such a bad life now, so I'll be happy." Song Jue walked back to his desk and sat down, picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Liu Shuai, and then put it in an envelope. He sealed it with fire paint and handed it to Eunuch Pan, "and deliver it to Liu Shuai as quickly as possible."
"yes!"
"Now that people are knocking on the door, we can't sit idly by and ignore it. We need Liu Shuai to seize the time to practice and strive to go out to conquer the Japanese country at the end of the month." Song Jue bared his teeth at Shen Haolin and Bai Meng, "By the way, we can save the people of the Japanese country. Yu Shuihuo, at least we passed by, maybe they can have a full meal, right?"
Shen Haolin and Bai Meng looked at each other and sighed helplessly. I'm afraid that's not what the secret letter meant, but... to avoid future troubles forever!
Shen Cha, who was sitting in the teahouse in the small courtyard, also received the good news from Liu Shuai. Song Jue asked his shadow to pass the news. After listening, the entire teahouse fell into silence.
Xuanyuan Liang was surprised that Shen Cha came to visit him in person, and he was particularly happy. He thought things had turned around and developed in a good direction. Unexpectedly, when I saw Shen Cha, I found that the other person's attitude was even colder than before. It didn't look like he was talking about private matters at all, but more like a business person. Then look at the disciple of Master Huilan who was following her, with a malicious sneer on his face, and the look he was looking at her was as weird as possible.
Xuanyuan Liang suppressed the faint uneasiness in her heart, invited people to sit down in the tea room, lit incense, and asked the servants to serve tea. Before they could exchange greetings, the shadow sent by Song Jue arrived.
"There were no warning signs before?" Xuanyuan Liang sighed softly after hearing what Shadow said, "It's not normal."
"It's abnormal, and the battle ended too quickly. It's not like the usual style of the Japanese. They have been harassing the border, and they always bite and run away. They wait until the border relaxes their vigilance and then bite again. This goes back and forth several times until the guard Only when the army is tired will they launch the final attack to ensure a hit. Over the years, although the form has changed countless times, the essence has not changed. And this time..." Shen Cha tapped the table lightly. , "What reasons does the old general think caused them to change their strategy?"
"It's not that the strategy has been changed, but that there was no strategy from the beginning to the end. This kind of situation has happened before, but it's very rare."
"Has it appeared? Has the old general encountered him?"
"I encountered it once or twice, and each time it was when the Japanese people were in dire straits and natural and man-made disasters broke out." Xuanyuan Liang sighed, "If I guessed correctly, these people should be ordinary fishermen on the small islands near the Japanese country. I know a little kung fu, but I'm not very good at fighting, that's all. General Shen knows the situation in Japan better than I do. Especially in recent years, those so-called big families have been struggling, let alone those who live at the bottom. Where are the people! Japanese pirates sometimes do not refer to well-trained soldiers, but ordinary people. They are so poor that they can hardly survive, so they can only take risks. The one Liu Shuai encountered once should be That’s the kind of person.”
"You're all going to die anyway, why not take a gamble?" Seeing Xuanyuan Liang nod, Jin Miaomiao continued to ask, "Do the Japanese particularly like this kind of adventurous things? I have been observing for a while, and every time I encounter something Big things are all about luck, and I feel like they are just like gamblers.”
"Yes, their nature is like this. If they relied on strength, they would not survive now." Xuanyuan Liang chuckled, "What happens to the Japanese? Your Majesty and Liu Shuai will deal with them. They will definitely not let them go. General Shen doesn't have to worry." The shadow that came to deliver the message before did not know when to retreat, and now there were only three of them left in the tea room. He sighed softly, "General, you are here this time, but do you have something to say?"
"Yes, I came here today to settle matters with Old General Xuanyuan, or the Xuanyuan family."
"It's... over?" Although Xuanyuan Liang expected that she would say this, she still felt very uncomfortable when she actually heard it. "How do you want to... end it?"
"How to settle it? Xiaocha had nothing to do with your Xuanyuan family before, has nothing to do with it now, and will have nothing to do with it in the future. Please don't pester her again."
"Master Jin, this is a family matter of my Xuanyuan family. It really has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Of course it's related. In Xiaocha's heart, I am a family member, and you are a stranger. Your little brother who was kicked out..." Jin Miaomiao sneered, "He is an enemy!"
