In the secret room of Touran Inn, the old accountant met a gangster in the city.
"Is this serious?" the old accountant asked in surprise.
"It's absolutely true. I'm not the only one who bought this news. Except for those two countries, all other countries bought it." The gangster seemed to be a high-level spy.
In Lu Guotang, the spy agency, Ding Qi's highest status in Lu Guo is "No. 1", while the old accountant is ranked "No. 3". The gangster calls himself "I" in front of "No. 3", which shows that his status is "No. 3".
Top ten.
"But Master No. 1 hasn't come back yet. He needs to make a decision on such a big matter." The old accountant's face was solemn.
"My lord must be on his way back, but this matter is extremely urgent. If your lord is delayed on the way and cannot come back in a few days, then this news will not mean much." The gangster was very anxious.
"What you said makes sense." The old accountant rubbed his forehead, "Let's do this. Special cases will be handled specially. I will send the news back to the country immediately and let the young master decide how to deal with it."
The gangster slapped his thigh and said: "Okay, this method is good, let's do it like this!"
On the morning of New Year's Eve, He Zizi received a secret report from the Protectorate of the Capital City. The old man, who had experienced great storms, looked shocked and hurriedly drove the carriage to the Magic Club.
The Lord of Juyang City had just had breakfast and was about to ask Ao Yu to go out to practice, when he found Qian You coming back from outside.
"Your Majesty, this is an urgent encrypted letter from the Marquis Mansion." Qian You handed over a piece of animal skin.
Ding Kui smelled an unusual smell.
He had never received an urgent summons from his family, whether it was from his hometown or the capital. This could be said to be the first time.
When he first came to the study, he opened a secret book and translated the magical message on the animal skin.
"Isn't it possible?" Ding Kui's eyes widened.
"What's going on?" Qian You was also very curious.
"Sorry, I can't tell you right now." Ding Kui reached out and pinched his chin.
This made Qianyou even more surprised that the capital wanted to hide something from him.
"Brother Qian, please reply to me right away and tell the palace immediately."
"Tell the palace immediately, that's all?"
"Yes, just one sentence will do, and they will know how to do it." Ding Kui looked serious, "Then come back here right away, I want to hold a secret meeting."
In the royal study room of the royal palace in Zhenjing City, Shaodianmi anxiously stood outside the door, looking at the road leading to the harem from time to time.
Not long after, the king came out of the harem with a displeased face.
"Why are you so anxious to find an orphan?" Shao Diandan was looking at the two little princes just now.
"Something serious has happened, Your Majesty. Just now Lu Guotang sent an urgent report that the Tongbei Empire has transported a large amount of military supplies to the Qi State. The Qi State is very likely to attack the Cao State in the short term. This is the news that Lu Guotang spent a lot of money to buy. I guess
Other countries will also know that if this is true, Qi will take action within a day or two." After Shaodianmi reported, he did not forget to add his own analysis.
"Why did Qi State attack Cao State? Is the news conclusive?" Shao Diandan couldn't believe this news.
Qi State has always united with Cao State to fight against Shaodian State. Historically, there have been very few incidents of fighting between Qi State and Cao State. It has never happened in the past 500 years.
"The news should be reliable. A secret report came back from Qi Guotang the day before yesterday. Qi Shuang has not shown up for more than a month. There are rumors that he was assassinated. It seems to be true now." The information received by the Director of Intelligence is relatively comprehensive.
"Qi Shuang is dead? Qi Shao has no such ability, so it must be the Tongbei Empire who did it. This makes sense. Why did the Tongbei Empire instigate the Qi State to attack the Cao State?" Shao Diandan was confused.
The Tongbei Empire has the strength to annex the Qi State, but other countries will not sit idly by. Once the Qi State is in trouble, even the Shaodian State will send troops to help the Qi State fight against the Tongbei Empire. None of the southern countries are willing to extend the tentacles of the Northern Empire. Come from the south.
"The humble official will step up the collection of intelligence about Qi and Cao and learn about the situation in the two countries as soon as possible." Shaodianmi could not answer the king's question now.
"Send the news to the commander-in-chief's office and ask them what they think."
Shao Diandan felt that he could not let go of such an opportunity. The two mortal enemies were at each other's throats and he had to do something.
At the Lord's Mansion of Juyang City, Ding Kun, Qian Bu, Shi Jiang, Liu Yu, Fei Ze, Qian You, Xue Chong and other most important figures under Ding Kui are basically present.
"Everyone is here. Let me tell you a top-secret news. Qi State and Cao State are going to fight, probably in the next two days." Ding Kui told everyone.
The people present looked at each other in confusion. Qian Bu and Ding Kun looked at each other and asked, "Did the news come from the old house or the capital?"
"Ducheng, my father has been away from the old house for nearly a month, and his current whereabouts are unknown." Ding Kui found out from the news from the capital that his father was not in Lu State.
He Zizi passed the information about the Lu State intact to Qian You. The information contained content about letting Ding Kui make the decision, indicating that Ding Qi was not in charge of the work in the Lu State.
Ding Qi returned to Xiaxi Town in November and left in early December. Ding Kui was informed of the situation all over the world.
Ding Kui knew very well that his father would go through the portal of the Poison Mist Canyon. Normally, he should have arrived at Spring and Autumn City long ago. There was no reason for him to decide whether to inform the intelligence department headquarters.
Others could not understand the meaning of Ding Qi's missing. The Protector's whereabouts were often unknown.
"The news from the capital is very reliable. There will be big changes next year. I don't know what impact it will have on Juyang City." Qian Bu turned to look at Liu Yu and Fei Ze.
"Even if Qi State and Cao State fight, the scale will not be too large. They will confine the war to a relatively small area.
Because if the two countries launch a full-scale war, they will definitely worry that our country will take the opportunity to advance eastward. It is hard to say which country will be more unlucky and encounter the main force of our army.
Do we have any channels to know how big the movement is this time? Will the commander-in-chief send troops to attack a certain country?" Liu Yu was cautious.
"Qi State and Cao State are at war, so the battlefield must be far away from here. Even if our country takes the opportunity to attack Cao State, Juyang City will not be affected, and we will not be involved in the war." Xue Chong did not understand Liu Yu's attitude. .
"Qi State and Cao State are at war, and other countries must be involved behind it. The scale of the war is not large, but it can cause a lot of commotion. Maybe the entire continent will be involved. Assuming that the situation is under control, then we will deal with Cao State The export of goods will also be affected by this. First of all, military supplies cannot be sold to Cao State."
Fei Ze seemed to be explaining to Xue Chong, but in fact he was reminding Ding Kui.
"Mr. Fei is right. The Qi State is backed by the Tongbei Empire. The Ancient Yuan Empire will not remain indifferent after knowing this, and the Meng State will not stand idly by. As for our Shaodian State," Ding Kui paused, "Will The response is very important and we need to be prepared as early as possible."
