"Kick, kick, kick, snap~~!"
The door of the restaurant was opened violently, and a guest hurried in, with a look of panic on his face.
Han Jingtong frowned and said, "You are so impatient and don't know what etiquette is?"
The retainer hurriedly handed over his hands and said breathlessly, "Sir, something bad happened. I just received news that Zhang Shao, the envoy of the Xia State, came to Xingguo. After a few days of secret talks with King Xing, Xingguo has issued a letter of credence and intends to form an alliance with the Xia State!! !」
"Click~~!"
The bamboo slip in his hand fell to the ground, and Han Jingtong was stunned.
There was a "pop" sound.
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the person immediately fell to the ground and cried out sadly.
"Yang Gan, you are going too far!!!"
After he finished speaking, he fainted. The guest was immediately frightened to death and quickly called someone to call the doctor. After a long time, he was finally revived.
"Lift, send people immediately, take my token, gather people, and go to stop them. They must not be allowed to go to Shangguo."
At this time, Han Jingtong's face was as golden as paper, and his aura was extremely weak, as if a candle flame was blowing in the wind and was about to be extinguished at any time.
He tried his best to make suggestions to Liao Guo, but it was a pity that for his amazing talent, those scholar-bureaucrats made themselves fat and fat, but they could not feel the existence of the crisis at all.
"Sir, I heard that they have a lot of people, more than two hundred people!"
Han Jingtong took out another jade pendant and handed it to the retainer, "Look for the border guard of Liao State and send out a large army to encircle and suppress them. We must capture these people."
"We must not let them go to Shangguo. The general guarding the border is General Li Lu. We only need to show the token and there will be no problem."
"promise!"
Calling several companions to take good care of Han Jingtong, the retainer immediately led five horses and galloped towards Kuaiji County.
Compared to Han Jingtong, who was miserable, Fei Lian and others felt at ease. After the matter was completed, the credit must be considerable, and I believe that the rewards in the future will not be less. The most important thing is.
Being able to complete the tasks assigned by your Majesty is an amazing achievement in itself.
"General Feilian, please stay overnight today. We are only fifty miles away from the border."
Fei Lian looked at the sky and saw that the sun was gradually setting. He was indeed tired from the journey today.
Because the task is completed, traveling during this period is not like when I came here, rushing early in the morning and late in the evening.
"Okay, let's stay here for one night, and we'll set off at dawn tomorrow."
Fei Lian was not Yang Qian or Ran Jing. Although he had participated in many battles, he was positioned as a subordinate and bodyguard.
On the battlefield and the sensitivity of the current situation, he was several blocks behind Ran Jing, and even more incomparable to Yang Qian.
This is why Yang Qian never planned to let him lead an army independently. If he was exhausted, he would just let him lead a group of people to dig for meteorite.
After eating and drinking in the inn, about two hundred people were ready to wash up and sleep.
Just when Fei Lian had finished washing his feet, two soldiers from the Xuanjia Army came in and held their hands together.
"General, something isn't right here?"
Fei Lian took a towel and wiped his big feet clean, feeling a little confused.
"What's wrong? Isn't this an inn?"
A soldier said, "We have all observed it since we entered the door. The store owner here is walking vigorously. He is obviously a Lianjiazi."
"While serving food, the waiters in the restaurant often look over and check us out."
Another soldier added, "Also, after we became suspicious later, we went to the back kitchen to have a look. The cook was pretty normal, but the guy cutting the meat was a little weird. His knife skills didn't look like he had been trained to cut meat. They were killed by murder."
Fei Lian was stunned. He had no doubts about what the soldiers had discovered. He also noticed something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.
The Xuanjia Army was trained by Your Majesty, and many of them have special skills.
At this time, in the room, a young man, who did not look like a soldier, came out and faced the two men.
The first soldier and Fei Liangong handed over.
"I just received the news that Han Jingtong learned about the alliance between Xingguo and Xia State. He was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood. Then, many secret agents of Liao State in Xingguo started to act."
"There are quite a few people, probably about 500 people."
As soon as he heard the number of people, Fei Lian's face softened and he breathed a long sigh of relief. "Oh, five hundred people. How many people did I think there were? Can you please contact me?"
Fei Lian instinctively wanted to ask Yang Gan for advice. After all, in terms of power in this mission, he was the biggest.
Zhang Shao only made the mission, marching, resting, and identifying the direction were all decided by Fei Lian.
But for now, I only carry the phone just in case. There are many mountains in the south, and there are strongholds in some places.
But there are mountains blocking it, so the signal is not good, and the phone plus battery is huge, so it is impossible to transport it without a horse-drawn carriage.
So if you want to contact you, given the current conditions, you can only rely on luck.
While several people were discussing, several more soldiers walked in.
Fei Lian was a little irritated, but because Xuan Jiajun was the emperor's personal soldier, he didn't dare to get angry, so he could only hold back his anger and asked.
"What else happened?"
A dozen people who were tied into rice dumplings and beaten into pig heads were thrown in. The soldiers of the Xuanjia Army said in a deep voice, "General Qi."
"We asked them to prepare dry food, but they poisoned the dry food. They also sneaked into the stables at night and fed our horses crotons, but we caught them on the spot."
Fei Lian was completely confused. Who am I, where am I, and who are these people.
In order to ease the embarrassment, he coughed twice and said, "Let's interrogate and find out who is the mastermind behind the scenes."
"promise!"
More than a dozen people were randomly taken to other guest rooms. In fact, some soldiers of the Xuanjia Army had already noticed.
When I first arrived, there were a lot of people, but now there is no one in the room, which is extremely abnormal.
Your Majesty said that if you are an abnormal monster, you should capture it first. Anyway, this is the border of Xingguo and Monk Kingdom. Even if this inn is slaughtered, what will happen.
After a while, bursts of heartbreaking sounds could be heard, and there were many people in the Xuanjia Army who were proficient in interrogation.
After two or three tortures, these people's spirits collapsed and they told everything they knew.
After learning the identities of these people, Fei Lian was dumbfounded and hurriedly called Zhang Shao over.
These people who pretended to be shopkeepers and restaurant servants were the knights of Shang State. They were hired by the generals guarding the border to rob and kill people.
When eating, I didn't poison because I was not sure. I thought that as long as I tampered with the dry food and war horses, I only had to hang far behind, and these people wouldn't be able to run very far.
Unexpectedly, the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army saw through it. At that time, there was a clever soldier who was responsible for external rescue and had a little knowledge of medical knowledge.
After testing the poison with a silver needle and eating some food, all the soldiers began to eat it. It was this alertness that saved everyone's life.
"We must leave for Shangguo immediately~~!"
Zhang Shao directly objected, "No, although there is more than one way to Shangguo, we must pass through the checkpoint. If there are people waiting for us at the checkpoint, two hundred people will not be able to do anything. On the contrary, we will be caught in a trap."
"Plus, we still have a carriage, so we can't run very fast~!"
After Zhang Shao compiled all the current information, he took a breath of horror and said in a deep voice.
"It's bad. We probably convinced Xingguo. Han Jingtong received the news and joined forces with Shangguo to encircle and suppress us."
Fei Lian shook his head and said, "I don't think it's possible. Since the matter of rejuvenating the country has been settled, killing us will have no effect."
Zhang Shao looked sad and sneered, "It's not that simple. I signed the credentials, but I haven't taken the credentials back yet."
"We just need to snatch back the credentials, and then resume peace talks with King Xing. After paying some price, we can definitely get Xingguo to rejoin."
"We are small in body and death,
The entire Central Plains war situation is serious. If we can't bring back our credentials, then my mission this time will be considered a complete failure. "
Everyone fell silent.
Someone in Shangguo colluded with Han Jingtong and was unable to go back. He wanted to go back to Xingguo to ask for asylum. Han Jingtong had always sent people to guard various important roads.
The combat power of the two hundred Xuanjia Army is quite good, but after all, they are not fighting on the local territory. They do not have sufficient supplies to supply, and they are isolated and helpless. It is almost equivalent to asking the sky to respond and the earth to fail.
While everyone was thinking hard, Zhang Shao suddenly said, "I remember that when we set out, your Majesty gave you a bag of tips. Why don't you open it and take a look."
Fei Lian was stunned and immediately took out the tips bag from his arms. Fortunately, someone reminded him. If no one had reminded him, he really wouldn't have remembered it. After all, it was smooth sailing when he came here. At most, he just dispatched some bandits. Just don't need it.
After opening the kit, I saw what was written above.
[If you want to survive, go to Kuaiji. There are warships at the beach to pick you up. The emergency number for warships is 10086]
The two of them had a meal, and were instantly ecstatic. Your Majesty could predict things like a god. Can you guess such a thing?
In fact, this is not because Yang Gan is a god at everything, but because he likes to be prepared for everything, and Fei Lian is his fierce general.
Although he is not suitable for leading troops in battle, he is most suitable as a general or guard, but he cannot be lost casually.
After taking out the nearby map and examining it carefully, Fei Lian's face darkened.
"It's close to nine hundred miles~~~!"
Zhang Shao was shocked, "Ju, is it so far away?"
Fei Lian smiled and said, "It's not that far. If the people and horses don't stop, it will only take six days. If it's a little slower, it will only take nine days."
Zhang Shao almost bit off his tongue, pointed at himself and said, "Have you forgotten me? Also, that thing called a phone seems to need a carriage to transport it."
Fei Lian's face darkened, and he immediately felt bad. If Yang Qian was here, there must be a hundred ways to do it.
With a small number of people and high mobility, it is not easy for others to catch them. If they are automatically exposed, it will be difficult to say.
"General Fei Lian, we don't have enough horses this time. If we run a long distance, one man and two horses may not be able to handle it."
Zhang Shao's eyes flashed and he tried his best to persuade. The Xuanjia Army had superb riding skills and was good at running long distances.
But I am not a soldier. With my small arms and legs, let alone running thousands of miles.
Even riding a horse for a day can shake yourself to pieces.
