Mr. Yu quickly analyzed the information obtained over the years in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He suddenly broke out in cold sweat in the middle of winter.
"Did the military households from Pingliang Fort escape?" Song Liyun squeezed the paperweight at hand, feeling anxious in her heart.
What do those sergeants do for a living? Let a few powerless civil servants escape.
At this time, Mr. Yu could not say that the sergeants were ordinary people. Facing cunning and cunning officials, they would inevitably be negligent.
Based on his guess, the Di clan's royal court has long had internal strife over the years, and the sent royal daughter of the Wu Dynasty was just an excuse for several tribes.
Moreover, the Mida Valley area is also a place where the Royal Court will be unified sooner or later.
It's just that Mida City acted quickly and formed an alliance with the Zhenbei Army during their internal fighting.
Fast forward three years, a city was built in Mida Valley, and there was a caravan that made people envious.
And there are many guards.
If Wang Ting attacks rashly, he will not only suffer a bloody blow, but will also get nothing but ruins.
The criminal official of the Wu Dynasty who defected to the area came up with a plan to lure the snake out of its cave. He used 3,000 people as bait to lure away the Zhenbei Army on the grassland and the defenders of Mida City.
But the Royal Court has never made any move towards Mida City. How can it understand the situation so well and keep the Zhenbei Army under its control?
"Young madam, there must be insiders among the merchants leaving the city, and there must be some in the tribe..." Mr. Yu said in a deep voice.
"The Simon tribe is the insider!"
After being analyzed by Yu Laoyi, Song Liyun suddenly understood.
No wonder that as soon as Zhao Tingduo left, those tribes jumped out uncharacteristically to look for trouble.
It's not that I really want to force myself to agree to the rude request, but I want to disturb my vision.
But Song Liyun didn't give them a chance to mess with him. He slashed the knife and killed Simon directly.
"Well, those tribes didn't expect that the young lady could kill Simon, so they took advantage of the caravan's departure to cause trouble... They wanted to detain the caravan, lure hundreds of families away, and swallow Mida City completely!"
It took several months to completely occupy the miraculous city of Mida without moving a single soldier.
This kind of delicate embroidery-like operation and such patience could only be thought of by the civil servants of the Wu Dynasty who were good at conspiracy and conspiracy.
This is why Zhao Tingduo who is on the battlefield is not in danger, but Song Liyun who is staying at home is in danger.
Song Liyun couldn't tell whether Mr. Yu's guess was wrong or right, so he just closed his eyes slightly: Since the target is Mida City, let's do it!
For half an hour, Mida City's passwords were issued continuously.
The remaining merchants in the city were all gathered in one house and could no longer move freely.
Jian Fangtong's people also sent back news. After learning that the caravan was trapped, they quickly pursued it without waiting for Fang Baihu to send troops.
You don't know if you don't check. Once you check, Jian Fangtong turns pale with fright.
A team hiding in the desert was called out, numbering at least nearly a thousand people.
With so many people not being discovered, Song Liyun didn't believe there were no tribesmen covering up.
As long as she thought about it for a moment, she could figure out who was behind the trouble that day.
But it was the extermination of the Simon tribe and the warning at night that made these people lurk again.
The information was wrong, and Jian Fangtong was responsible.
Jian Fangtong was angry and annoyed because someone under his command had been bribed.
Lao Qian sent all the trustworthy guards to the city wall.
According to statistics, there are still 143 people who can defend the city, plus the men of the city lord's palace, the total is 200.
What reassured Song Liyun was that there was news. The Muhan tribe and several other tribes had received news that the caravan was in trouble and had rushed over to help Fang Zheng and Lin Qingyuan.
As soon as those two people escaped and returned to Mida City, the guards would also come back.
Two days, only two days in Mida City, all the surrounding tribes will gather here.
Song Liyun returned to the main courtyard as she arranged her business. Lady Yun, Wan Youyou and the others were waiting here.
As soon as he saw her coming over, Wan Youyou, who had changed into a tunics, asked: "Young madam, Yiming and Erfan can be used. They have all been trained."
Yiming and a dozen other boys are now twelve or thirteen years old. They usually do chores in the scientific research institute. Although they are young and weak, they are all familiar with the operation of mines and mines. If they occupy a favorable position, they can also be a new force.
Song Liyun nodded: "Yuyou, you go and arrange for the scientific research institute to deal with some things that need to be dealt with, and the gunpowder can also be taken out and used."
Wan Youyou has experienced family breakdown and death, so she is no ordinary girl.
With her brain, she could guess the whole story after hearing about Pingliangbao more than a month ago.
Because she also belongs to the group of people in exile.
The criminal officials who left the capital used to be high-ranking officials with generous salaries, fine clothes and fine food, but now they are thrown into the dust and have to dig the land.
Who doesn't have hatred in their hearts and longs to regain their former glory? As soon as the Di clan's royal court hooks up with him, they can't wait to join their master.
Seeing that Song Liyun was in a peaceful mood, Wan Youyou calmed down and turned around and left without saying a word.
Next to them, Yuquan and Lady Yun were not so stable.
Yuquan's face turned pale. She heard the elders of the clan talking about the tragedy of the clan being exterminated twenty years ago.
There is also the annual tribal memorial ceremony, which is bloody.
Madam Yun couldn't accept it. After only a few years of stable life, she had to see the blood and flesh of her loved ones around her being splattered and their heads falling to the ground.
Yuquan helped Song Liyun sit down.
Madam Yun was so anxious that she said: "Xiaoyun, you'd better go! Go back to Mount Kara, not for yourself, but you also have to think about the child in your belly... He and his father don't even know that you... you
You shouldn’t hide this from the young master.”
After learning about her pregnancy, Song Liyun did not mention herself in her letters to Zhao Tingduo.
When the troops are out, speaking out will have no effect other than making people worried and confused.
Song Liyun also wanted Zhao Tingduo to come back and witness all this with his own eyes.
She waved her hand: "Aunt Yun, it's too late to leave now. I'm afraid I will be stopped halfway as soon as I leave the city."
Yuquan also said: "Madam said that she will come to Mida City after the tribe is dealt with. Now I think we are already on the way. If we go back, maybe we can meet him halfway!"
The last time Elder Shan sent her to serve the young madam, the madam was already working on arranging a ceasefire in the steelmaking blast furnace, and would come to see the young madam as soon as she was free.
How could Song Liyun put her hope in meeting him by chance on the road?
She calmed down and comforted the two panicked women: "Don't worry, the Mida city wall is made of cement and is high and strong. Not only can bows and arrows not shoot through it, but even people can't climb it!
We just need to close the city gates and eat and drink for a month, and your city lord will lead his troops to fight back!"
it seems to be like this!
Yuquan and Lady Yun also looked relaxed and looked at each other: "Really? Madam, didn't you lie to us?"
"If you don't believe my words, you must believe the city wall!" Song Liyun laughed.
After the advent of cement, the exterior of the adobe city walls was re-coated with cement and used for the first time, although it was incomparable with the craftsmen of later generations.
But the wall, which is as hard as iron and as smooth as a mirror, still amazes everyone who sees it.
Without waiting for the two of them to think more, Song Liyun continued to make arrangements: "From now on, Aunt Yun will take care of the little maids in the house, as well as the women and maids, and arrange three meals a day and clothes for me, Lady Wan, and my son.
.”
Madam Yun was usually responsible for these things. Song Liyun said it again at this time, and Madam Yun, who was a little dazed, slowly woke up: "Okay, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the child's milk is hot, okay? Then I'll cook you a bowl of ginger.
sugar."
"Okay, go ahead! If those women and maids ask, just do what you just said!"
Song Liyun didn't intend to hide it. She didn't want the people in her house to panic when a fight broke out outside.
