Other staff immediately retorted: "If we attack Xiazhou again, there will be a lot of damage. Why don't we recruit elite troops to help? The general loves his soldiers like his own sons, and our Xunzhou army should also rest and recuperate!"
After the Battle of Hanhe, the Yuan Army almost collapsed, and the Xunzhou Army was also seriously injured. How could it take a few months to recover?
Today, Xiazhou's troops are weak and exhausted, and even Zhao Pan, the best defensive general, has been transferred. If Nian Zanli can borrow the elite soldiers of Baling at this time, it will be a complete use of force to bully the weak and overthrow Xiazhou.
General manager He Chunhua used his face to output.
Defeat? Impossible!
Why would he refuse such a sure-win situation? Why did he have to go back and forth with Xiazhou and get into a bitter battle?
The Xunzhou Army is the team he has built over more than ten years, and it is also the team that will win the country in the future. It cannot be wasted needlessly.
Nian Zanli looked at Lu Huansheng and smiled: "If you don't have any good suggestions, don't speak up."
Lu Huansheng shrank his head and became silent.
Someone on the side said: "As for the promise to Shuangye Imperial Master and Sui Na from Baling Kingdom, there is no need to worry. As long as the Yuan Kingdom is conquered, this amount of money can still be afforded. The Ke family auctioned off a piece of silk in Dunyuan a few days ago."
Each sword head cost seven to eight hundred thousand taels. Isn't it possible that the huge Yuan Kingdom is not as wealthy as the Ke family?"
The other staff nodded: "Yes, as long as we add a little more safety tax, the hole will be filled."
The important thing is to win! As long as you win, everything is a matter of course.
Lu Huansheng couldn't help it anymore: "The Yuan Kingdom is short of money and food. It is said that Zhao Pan's army mutinied on the way to the northwest. They had to plunder several villages and towns, otherwise all the soldiers would run away. In places other than Yuan Capital, the flesh and blood of the people were destroyed.
They squeezed everything out, and even the land was scraped three feet away. How can you find so much money and silk to pay the Imperial Master Shuangye?"
Nian Zanli's cold gaze glanced over, and Lu Huansheng immediately lowered his head.
Other staff members quickly said: "As you said, except for Yuandu... Yuandu is rich and has many officials. They have a lot of money and silk in their treasury."
Someone else reminded: "The Great Sima in the northwest has won several battles and is stepping up the offensive. If we don't have to pull out the Ling soldiers, then..."
After the Battle of Hanshui, the Xunzhou Army suffered heavy losses and was no longer as powerful as Da Sima. If the Ling soldiers had not been led southward, Da Sima might have taken the lead and conquered Yuandu.
"Exactly!" Nian Zanli smiled a little: "Since the elite soldiers have been borrowed, Lu Huansheng, you will go back to Xunzhou tomorrow to prepare food and grass, and we will cut down the kites within half a year!"
Lu Huansheng could only respond.
Nian Zan walked out of the tent and looked back to the northwest with his sword in hand, feeling relieved.
Shuangye Imperial Master's asking price is indeed very high, but if he wants to win the war, how can it be without price? Elite soldiers are about to be obtained, and before next summer, he will cut off He Chunhua's head to use as a wine glass!
…
He Lingchuan finished the pancakes in two or two bites, wiped his hands and mouth, turned around and walked towards the Tiangong Camp.
Yes, Tiangong didn't need to show off their carriages at Caohai. They directly sent a battalion of manpower over and set up ten tents at the best viewing position on the sandbank, guarded by Tiangong guards.
Chief Du Yun is here in person today, and all the specifications here are particularly grand.
The open space outside the camp was filled with kneeling civilians, at least tens of thousands of people, so densely packed that the white sand on the ground could barely be seen.
They fell to the ground, defiant, and murmured something.
The Duyunshi and the Lampkeeper are both human travelers of the gods. They usually live high in the clouds and are rarely seen by humble people. Today is such a good opportunity that devout believers will come to worship.
There are many people with whole families lying on the ground together, extremely pious and willing to dedicate everything to God.
He Lingchuan walked among the kneeling people, feeling that he had nowhere to stay.
As expected, he was stopped before he even got close to the camp.
The weapons of the Tiangong guards were shining brightly.
"He Xiao, the envoy of the Chiyan Kingdom, asked to see the Baidu envoy. He has important information to report."
The guards looked at him suspiciously, but the word "envoy" was still easy to use, and one of them turned around and went into the camp to report.
After more than ten breaths, he came back and said, "Please come with me."
With the extra word "please", He Lingchuan knew Bai Ziqi's attitude.
People in the camp were coming and going, as busy as worker bees. After all, the Caohai activities would officially begin soon.
He Lingchuan followed the guard into a small tent.
Bai Ziqi was talking to someone. When he saw He Lingchuan arriving, he immediately sent the person away and smiled at him: "Hey, why did He Xiao come to see me when he had time?"
He has a very high status in the Heavenly Palace, second only to Chief Duyun, but he rarely shows off when dealing with people.
He Lingchuan smiled back and looked around, but said nothing.
Bai Ziqi understood and waved everyone in the tent away, then rubbed his hands: "Come on, please sit down and please speak!"
He had also studied He Lingchuan for a long time and knew that he would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything.
As expected, He Lingchuan said nothing: "Qingfu Temple, there is progress."
Upon hearing the words "Qingfu Temple", Bai Ziqi immediately waved her hand to interrupt, first put up a soundproof barrier, and then said seriously: "Continue."
"Everyone in Qingfu Temple is not dead, and there is another fish that slipped through the net named Kong Jiaxiang. On the day of the fire, he happened to spend the night at Xianghao's place and thus escaped death." He Lingchuan whispered this earth-shattering news, "He has to
After the Zhiqingfu Temple was destroyed, he quickly fled back to his hometown of Yangshui."
Bai Ziqi listened to every word without missing a word and looked solemn:
"How did you know?"
Qing Gong is a very strong opponent, sweeping away all the clues he can think of. He mobilized manpower and material resources, but failed to find any useful information after searching for so long. Why did He Xiao, who had just arrived in Lingxu City, get it instead?
He Lingchuan came prepared: "After we captured Wu Kai in Baishaqian, I sent people to investigate his hometown background. At that time, there was no response, so we escorted the prisoner away from Baishaqian and came to Lingxu City."
He handed over a file: "This is the account book that Yangshui County just sent to us. It records the background of Wu Kai's relatives and friends in his hometown. Kong Jiaxiang was born as an accountant. He is not only the brother of Wu Kai's daughter-in-law, but also a member of Qingfu Temple.
Temple blessing. I think it was Wu Kai who introduced me."
Bai Ziqi took it and looked through it while He Lingchuan explained it to him.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I have seen the list of the deceased in Qingfu Temple, and Kong Jiaxiang is listed among them." As the owner of the suffering, Chiyan State can intervene in the progress of the case, and the more Fushan becomes
After getting the list, "then compare it with the account books sent by Yangshui County to find out the discrepancies between the two pieces of evidence. I have sent the bird demon back to verify that Kong Jiaxiang is indeed alive and living in his old house in Yangshui."
.”
The useful information in the account book has been circled in red ink. Bai Ziqi read it at a glance and praised it several times with "good" words:
"He Xiao is really careful. But why doesn't His Highness directly approve the arrest?"
Yangshui is within the territory of Chiyan, so Fushanyue certainly has jurisdiction over it.
He Lingchuan said in a low voice: "I'm afraid I might scare off the grass, so I'd better go to the trouble of doing it in vain."
Bai Ziqi looked at him deeply: "Then please He Xiao thank His Highness for me."
If Fu Shanyue didn't arrest people himself and let him do it, he would be giving him the credit. Since Prince Chiyan was frequently in danger in Lingxu City, the prince's popularity among the government and the public not only declined, but became even more noisy in the dust, even in the city.
Even the most remote rural areas are talking about it.
Bai Ziqi has been working on the elixir of life for a long time, but there has been little progress recently. Gods and emperors have repeatedly asked about it, and he is under a lot of pressure.
If Kong Jiaxiang's confession can really become a new breakthrough in the case, Prince Chiyan's move will be a big favor to him.
It's not that he didn't do a good job in the original investigation, but that Kong Jiaxiang's clues must have Chi Yan's cooperation.
It is normal for people to go missing at the scene of a major fire. So it is so strange that there are no bones left after being burned by real fire? Qingfu Temple is missing several corpses. If the account books from Chiyan Yangshui County are not sent, they will not be able to do it at all.
It may be found out that Kong Jiaxiang is still alive.
Qing Gong didn't find out either, so now he is finally one step ahead of his opponent.
This opportunity must be grasped well.
He Lingchuan smiled: "Definitely."
With new clues about the elixir of life, Bai Ziqi's attention will be diverted and she will no longer have to stare at him.
With Bai Ziqi's caution, coupled with the current attention on the elixir of life, he would probably go to Yangshui to get the person himself.
During this period of time, He Lingchuan will have a higher degree of freedom and it will be easier to do things.
The transfer of important information was completed, and He Lingchuan was about to go back.
Bai Ziqi was in a good mood and personally sent him outside the camp and said goodbye with a smile.
This scene must have been seen by many interested people.
He Xiao himself was very popular, and he walked into the camp of the empire's highest authority in front of everyone, and was now escorted out by Du Yunshi personally. The two seemed to be chatting and laughing happily...
What happened!
He Lingchuan believed that there must be the informant of Imperial Master Shuangye here.
The transaction between him and Imperial Master Shuangye seemed very simple, and it seemed like he had taken advantage. In fact, Imperial Master Shuangye was so scheming, how could he make a loss-making transaction?
He had already seen that He Xiao was the best candidate to hand over the clue to Kong Jiaxiang.
This is the original person in charge of the case, and the biggest progress in the elixir of life has been investigated by him.
He Xiao is also the envoy of Chiyan, and Kong Jiaxiang's hometown is in Yangshui, Chiyan. It makes sense that He Xiao found this clue during the investigation.
The most important thing is that he is an outsider and has no connection with Frostleaf Grandmaster, so the evidence he submitted is more credible.
Bai Ziqi, who was the most suspicious, had to believe it.
Of course, He Lingchuan also had some strange behaviors in Bai Shaqian, but they had nothing to do with Lingxu City.
After Bai Ziqi got the clues about Kong Jiaxiang from him, he would not bother to investigate anymore. This was also in line with Shuangye Imperial Master's desire for a quick victory.
Regardless of other people's eyes or the repercussions this scene would cause, He Lingchuan walked back.
The mirror in his arms heard him take a long breath and sighed: "After handing over the clues, you and Shuangye Guoshi are now clean. It's not easy."
"Liangqing?" He Lingchuan chuckled, "You are overthinking."
"Ah?" Jing Jing asked curiously, "The things you asked him to do, and the things he asked you to do, have all been completed. Isn't this called clearing up the two sides?"
"The 'Liangqing' has ended here and there is no relationship." He Lingchuan said calmly, "Do you think, after this incident, my relationship with Shuangye will become closer or farther away?"
