2372. Chapter 2372 Those who dare to commit crimes will be punished!
Ali had naturally thought about this question thousands of times, but he could not say it out loud. He paused briefly and then said: "Madam, stop thinking about it. The prince must be in trouble, and we will definitely find him."
Su Mo sighed, yes, she will definitely find him.
She refused to find what might be the ultimate despair. She only felt that there was hope ahead, and she just had to keep walking.
By May, Su Mo and the others had won more than a dozen battles, large and small. She estimated that Jordan's people were almost unable to support them because they did not have enough food. The nomads had always taken advantage of a surge of blood.
They came down to plunder, and then returned in triumph with the spoils of victory. Unlike the Zhou Dynasty, they could transport grain and grass step by step. They did not have such strong and long-lasting backup.
Just when Su Mo, Huangfu Jie, Yue Shaochen and others were discussing the final decisive battle and planning to deal a fatal blow to Jordan, the imperial court suddenly sent an imperial envoy to reward the three armies for the emperor's victory in the battle.
In order not to increase the emperor's suspicion, at least until the end of the war, Su Mo took his people to hide temporarily, and explained everything, and sent people to control Wang Peng, asking him to cover up for him, otherwise he would be thrown into the wolves.
.
The imperial envoy who came was a top scholar with a criminal record, a disciple of the emperor, and was extremely loyal to the emperor.
His name was Xu Mukun, and he was the younger brother of Xu Shaokun. Su Mo had also heard of his name among the capital officials back then. He was a smart, handsome man with outstanding literary talent.
At the beginning, everything was well concealed. Xu Mukun always believed that Huangfu Jie and Yue Shaochen won the battle under Wang Peng's surveillance. But later he discovered the flaw and suspected that there was something hidden.
He actually detached Huangfu Jie's men and secretly sent people to inquire about the news with appreciation among the soldiers. Sure enough, they found out the truth.
Those soldiers were full of admiration, but when Xu Mukun heard it, they became more and more frightened.
In his opinion, Su Mo showed up, beat Wang Peng severely, took control of Wang Peng, and then instigated Huangfu Jie and Yue Shaochen to attack without the consent of the supervisory army. Although they won the battle, these soldiers now regarded Su Mo as
Huangfu Jie and Yue Shaochen were the gods who worshiped, especially Su Mo.
It is simply a continuation of Huangfu Jin.
Xu Mukun was loyal to the emperor and naturally understood what it would mean if the soldiers loved their commander too much.
It is possible that they only know that there are generals, but not that there is an emperor.
So these soldiers were raised by the emperor with money for the general. When something happened, they would only listen to the general's orders, which was extremely detrimental to the emperor.
Xu Mukun was smart. After discovering this, he remained calm and behaved more naturally. After rewarding the three armies, he left and returned to Beijing.
Su Mo is discussing the next plan with Huangfu Jieyue Shaochen, planning to lead people to sneak attack on Jordan Camp.
At this time Ali came in hurriedly, "Madam, I'm afraid Xu Mukun will be in trouble."
Huangfu Jie said "Ah", "What's going on? Didn't he leave well?"
Ali nodded, "It's just that the flying eagles found out that he actually sent a horse to Beijing to report secretly. If it was a normal thing, there would be no need to do this."
Su Mo lit the charcoal in her hand and glanced at Ali: "Have you stopped me?"
Ali said: "My subordinates have sent people to chase him, and there will be news soon."
Su Mo didn't speak anymore, lowered her head and continued to study the map, assigning new tasks.
