Chapter 161 Grass Stage Team

When Li Dezhao saw this, he quickly reached out his hand and struck him three times in the air, and the two of them concluded an alliance.

As for how long the covenant can last, neither side actually has much idea. However, at this moment, both sides believe that this covenant will not be overturned in the next few months.

The reason is very simple. Regardless of Bai Ze's feelings, killing the new Xia Guogong Li Deming will be beneficial to both parties.

As long as Li Deming dies, Li Dezhao will become Li Jiqian's sole heir. Not only will he completely get rid of the risk of being hunted down, but he will also be able to remain a loner behind closed doors and respond to his every call!

After the father-son fratricide, Dang Xiang, without three to five years of recuperation, would definitely not be able to gather enough people and strength to go south and invade the Song Dynasty. As a Song Dynasty person, Han Qing certainly contributed to the country.

However, it is easy to establish a covenant, but how to implement it is not so simple.

First of all, it was necessary to cover up the situation and not let any outsiders know that Han Qing and Li Dezhao had turned around and went to Xiazhou again.

Secondly, the envoys of the Song Dynasty who canonized Li Deming cannot be allowed to arrive too early. Otherwise, Han Qing and Li Dezhao's actions will be contrary to the imperial edict of the Song Dynasty officials. Li Dezhao may be fine in the future, but Han Qing will face endless troubles.

.

Thirdly, it is necessary to grasp Li Deming's whereabouts and know where he is in order to hit the target with one hit.

Fourth, it is necessary to obtain the support of one or two elders among the eight party departments. After Li Deming's death, he should immediately come out to help stabilize the situation, otherwise...

In short, there are a lot of miscellaneous things, and none of them can be completed easily.

There is a saying that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. Han Qing currently has not even a few counselors under his command, but a lot of bold "cobblers".

Everyone sat together and discussed over and over again, and finally came up with some solutions that didn't look very clever, but were practical.

So, after many protests failed, Dou Sha was personally dressed up as Han Qing by his sister Dou Rong, sat in a carriage, and continued to meander eastward under the protection of Zhang Fan, Liu Hong and others.

He only had to travel the mountains and rivers at the same speed as before. After careful calculation, by the time he arrived in Qingzhou, Han Qing himself would have almost returned from Xiazhou. By then, Han Qing would go to meet him at full speed, which would be able to deceive others without making any mistakes.

It will delay taking office.

Setting off at the same time as Dou Sha, there were two veterans of the Zhenrong Army. The two were responsible for traveling under the stars and night to deliver a personal letter from Han Qing to Kou Zhun.

From Kou Zhun's perspective, after learning that Han Qing had joined forces with Li Dezhao to go to Xiazhou, he could definitely see that this move would be of great benefit to the Song Dynasty without any harm.

By then, although Kou Zhun was too late to dispatch troops and horses to meet the two men, he had enough ability to issue the imperial edict of canonizing Li Deming from the Song Dynasty, which was delayed by ten days and a half.

In this way, Han Qing's move to help Li Dezhao seize the throne became justifiable. Moreover, many future troubles could be prevented in advance.

In addition, Han Qing also wrote a letter and sent it to the veteran general Li Jihe at night, asking the latter to use his contacts in the border army to create some "trouble" at the junction of the Song Dynasty and Xiazhou.

These troubles don't need to be too big, as long as Dangxiang's side mistakenly thinks that the Song Dynasty court may want to take advantage of it. In this way, Li Deming's attention will inevitably be allocated to the border, and it will be under his own nose.

Easy to neglect.



One by one, Han Qing and his friends beside him discussed things while walking towards Xiazhou. Whenever they came up with an idea, they immediately put it into practice, and they became more and more orderly.

In comparison, Li Dezhao's side is a bit off the mark.

The latter, like him, also turned around and walked north while making plans. However, after so many days, the results were minimal. Even the flying dragon envoys installed by Bai Ze in the Song Dynasty failed to recruit a few.

.

"This is too little, isn't it? When did Sister Bai take action, were there not dozens of flying dragon envoys cheering for her?" Unable to stand the inefficiency of Li Dezhao's work, Han Qing frowned and asked.

"You don't understand, you don't understand my difficulties at all. The tradition of our party members is to follow the winner without asking about right or wrong. Now that Li Deming has the absolute upper hand, naturally most of the flying dragon envoys will take the initiative to turn to him." Li Dezhao was asked.

De's face turned red, but he spoke plausibly, "However, although the people I have recruited are few, they are loyal and reliable. They will not sell me to Li Deming again."

"Just brag!" Han Qing didn't know how to refute, and didn't bother to refute. He frowned and scoffed, then turned to the trouble he was about to face, "After passing the mountain in front, we entered the boundary of Xiazhou.

.No one recognized me there, so I pretended to be a merchant, so I was able to get through. You are the second son of Duke Xia, and your brother will be on guard against you turning back and killing you, just in case someone recognizes you at the checkpoint...

"

"It's okay, I have a deerskin flight ticket issued by the Salt Pond Department!" Li Dezhao's face immediately became lively, and he showed off with excitement, "I will just smear turmeric on my face so that the soldiers guarding the checkpoint can follow up.

Just explain."

"Deerskin flying tickets?" Han Qing was confused and couldn't help asking in a low voice.

"It is a certificate issued by the Salt Pond Department for the delivery of green salt. It is burned with fire on the local white deer skin, and there is a special secret mark. Whoever holds the deer skin ticket can go to the Salt Pond Department according to the number on it.

Exchange it for green salt on the ground!" Finally it was Han Qing's turn to ask for advice, and Li Dezhao explained with a proud face.

"So simple?" Han Qing originally thought that the flying dragon envoys recruited by Li Dezhao on the way would be able to use some incredible secret methods, or find an unknown secret passage to help everyone enter Xiazhou without anyone noticing. However.

Unexpectedly, he actually used the salt ticket to clear the way. Suddenly, he blurted out doubts again.

"An effective method is a good method. No matter whether it is simple or not." Li Dezhao shook his head and continued to answer. "This trick is not only useful in Dangxiang, but also in the Song Dynasty. To be honest, last year I relied on more than twenty

I bought the deerskin flying ticket all the way from Bianliang back to Xiazhou."

"What?!" Han Qing was disappointed and angry at the same time, but she didn't know where to direct her evil anger.

A few days ago, when he first heard that Li Dezhao had escaped from Xiazhou, he was very surprised. When was this man secretly released back after he was obviously a hostage in Bianliang?

It was just that Bai Ze was seriously injured at that time, so it was not convenient for him to ask questions face to face. Later, because Li Dezhao was heartbroken over Bai Ze's death, he did not go over the old score again.

Unexpectedly, Li Dezhao took the initiative to "confess" today. He used money to bribe the people who monitored him and the checkpoints along the way, and returned to Xiazhou in a big way!

However, when he thought about it again, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Corruption was a systemic disease in the Song Dynasty. From top to bottom, almost no official was corrupt. Even Kou Zhun, a famous minister through the ages, received gifts that he couldn't let go of at home. How could he ask ordinary petty officials to

Keep yourself clean and not be moved by money and silk?

Moreover, even if Li Dezhao did not escape, it would be useless for the Song Dynasty to hold him. Neither Li Jiqian nor Li Deming would give up their personal ambitions and become the Duke of a separate state forever just because their son or younger brother was still in Bianliang.

As for Dang Xiang Feilong's rough behavior and his inability to even build a secret "transportation station", it's just because he thinks too much.

Right now, it’s the beginning of the eleventh century AD. Whether it’s the Dangxiang Feilong Division, the Liao Nanfang Division, or even the Song Dynasty’s Hekong Division, strictly speaking, they are just the prototype of espionage agencies, and they have nothing to do with the intelligence of various countries in later film and television works.

Departments are not the same.

The flying dragon envoys, assassins, and crane controllers do not have much previous experience to draw from, nor do they have various advanced facilities to use. Of course, they cannot act professionally and efficiently like the ace spies in later spy war dramas.

"Bai Ze's father is the chief of the White Horse Tribe of the Yeli Clan and the eldest brother of the entire Yeli Clan. I have sent someone to tell him about Bai Ze's death." Not wanting Han Qing to continue to despise him, Li Dezhao

Take the initiative to express your gratitude to him, "He used to be sick some time ago and refused to help me. This time, at least I can guarantee that he will still not stand by my brother."

"Helian, Sleeping Mud, and Mudzhong were originally leaning towards me, but they were forced to turn to my brother due to the situation. As long as I launch a counterattack, they will be happy to see the result."

"The Yanchi family made a lot of money by selling green salt to the Song Dynasty, and they were most afraid of going to war with the Song Dynasty. But my brother was very ambitious and always wanted to inherit my father's unfinished ambition to establish a country with Dangxiang. With the Yanchi tribe

Their interests are in conflict with each other. Therefore, as long as you can promise the elders of the Yanchi Department to help them increase their share of supplying green salt to the Song Dynasty, they will definitely consider who they should support..."

The two of them chatted and occasionally quarreled, each on their own guard. They couldn't feel the passage of time. It was as if they had crossed the mountain of boundaries before they even finished talking about the two topics.

Not far away, a lonely fortress rose from the ground. Under the wall of the fortress, several soldiers wearing iron armor and with sinewy faces were dancing with their whips.

Xiazhou has arrived. The scenery and people here are very different from other places in the Song Dynasty.
