Jian Xiao pulled Guo Ziqing's clothes and said, "Let's go! Come back quickly!"
Guo Ziqing was stunned for a moment, "Are you done asking now? It's still early before sunset, why don't you wait a little longer?"
Jian Xiao pointed at the Turkic soldiers who were packing their bags, "You didn't see them eating dinner so quickly and preparing to march. This is definitely a rush march. We have to rush back to report."
"What are you reporting?" Guo Ziqing felt that he hadn't gotten any information yet, so how could he report it when he got back?
Jian Xiao whispered, "I just said it! Hurry up! This matter will be over in a moment!"
Guo Ziqing looked at Jian Xiao, "Okay, I believe you!"
Jian Xiao knelt on one knee in front of the tent and said, "General, please quickly assemble your troops for the best defense. You must support and cannot retreat under any circumstances."
Qin Mintian twirled his beard and looked at the young man, "How do you say this?"
"May I ask the general, is it possible for the documents of the imperial court to be forged?" Jian Xiao asked.
Qin Minting was stunned for a moment, then picked up the yellow-covered document from his desk, "Forgery? How could it be possible?"
"That day they came for a sneak attack, it was because they were right, or there was a traitor, just because of this document. Duanmu camp has been surrounded by Turks. If the imperial court does not support us, the Turks who will destroy themselves sooner or later can just besiege and not attack."
Why are we rushing to send troops now that we are done? We must have known that the imperial court would support the Turks with heavy troops, but we were not willing to lose the good situation, so we sent out surprise troops! So we must hold on no matter what, and wait until the imperial court supports the Turks and send troops immediately, which means you are a temporary general.
I won’t send any more messages to the court for a while because I’m angry! So they want a quick resolution!”
Qin Minting looked at the map and said nothing for a while. After waiting for a while, he said, "What you said makes some sense, but it is all speculation after all."
"General Qin, why don't you send someone to take a look? If the Turks send troops today, reinforcements will surely arrive soon. You can also inquire about it with people in the court in disguise. But the top priority is to strengthen the defense. The war is about to start tomorrow at the latest."
Qin Minxin thought for a moment, "The entire battalion is on first-level defense. No one can retreat without my order. Do you have any other good ideas?"
Jian Xiao sighed. She was an analyst and did not grow up studying military science. She said it was okay, but she really wanted to go to the battlefield with live ammunition. In fact, she was a little scared. "The cavalry will disperse our team. If we can
Frightening the horses will greatly reduce their attack power."
"Okay," Qin Minting said, "Jian Xiao, I order you to inquire about the situation along the way and send me an urgent letter to the general stationed on the border of the Tang Dynasty to see if he can support you."
Tuo Jinglie rode a horse and sat at the front. He had already seen the heavily guarded Duanmu Camp from a distance. Qin Minmin was really strict in running the army. It looked like it was a hard battle. Mao Dun followed Tuo Jinglie and said, "General! I have a little point.
Puzzled"
"speak!"
"It's not that we agree to march tomorrow. Firstly, the general can take more rest, and secondly, the soldiers can be motivated."
Tuo Jinglie's face was expressionless, and he was holding something tightly in his hand, "There is an old saying in the Central Plains, 'One rush, then it will fade, and three times it will be exhausted.' The longer it takes, the worse it will be. Besides, my wound is not serious."
"He opened his hand, and the name tag suddenly appeared. Jian Xiao was there. He did not allow her to appear in a place full of men.
Jian Xiao didn't expect that she would be sent to investigate the situation, and her heart was filled with excitement. This meant that she had an excellent chance to escape. As long as she had to hurry up and run away by herself, if she didn't come back, she would be considered dead in battle or captured.
One Jian Xiao in her heart was so happy that she wanted to leave here right away, but the other Jian Xiao told her that she couldn't run away. Assuming that this battle would be better than Jia Country winning, if she lost, it would be equivalent to destroying the country. Then she had worked hard to do it.
If she doesn't get any information here, she has to go back. Her journey has been ups and downs and dangerous. It's not easy to survive until now. Is it really a waste of time?
"Brother Jian!" Guo Ziqing called out and pulled Jian Xiao back.
"What's wrong?" Jian Xiao asked
Guo Ziqing took off his armor and took out a bronze mirror from his clothes. "This is the amulet my mother gave me before she left. Take it and use it." Guo Ziqing handed it to Jian Xiao.
"How is this good?" Jian Xiao didn't know whether to take it or put it away.
"Here, you and I, my good brothers, will defend the city this time. Hehe, it might be an opportunity to make some achievements, or it might be buried here." Guo Ziqing said with a trace of reluctance, "If I really want to die in battle,
If you have a chance, return to the capital and go to my house to tell my parents that their son has not brought shame to the Guo family."
Looking at Guo Ziqing's upright face, Jian Xiao raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "In this case, it's better for you to say it yourself and I won't convey it to you."
She took the breastplate and said, "Don't worry, I will come back! Because we will definitely win!"
Guo Ziqing nodded, Jian Xiao got on his horse, and looked back at Guo Ziqing before leaving. What he shouldered was not the life of one person, but the honor and disgrace of thousands of soldiers and countless families behind him.
Jian Xiao did not search for traces of reinforcements along the route. Some news spread faster from person to person by word of mouth. The news may not be very accurate, but at least there are traces to follow. Such clues are often more accurate.
important
There is an inn fifty miles away from Duanmu Village. It is filled with businessmen who have made war fortunes. Here they buy and sell information, medicinal materials and small weapons. Jian Xiao tied the horse in the manger outside, and she changed it into a dilapidated one.
Wearing a blue gown, he looked like a down-and-out young man. She walked in. There were not many people inside. There were about three tables. They were drinking. When she saw Jian Xiao, she didn’t take it seriously.
Jian Xiao walked to the counter and asked the old man who was fiddling with his abacus, "I have some news..."
Before he finished speaking, several diners immediately put down their chopsticks and surrounded Jian Xiao, "Where does this little brother come from?"
"Young master, I'm nervous. Let me hear if you have any news."
Jian Xiao swallowed a sip of saliva and pretended to be ignorant of the world, "The reinforcements from the Biga Kingdom are about to arrive."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was wiped out, "Hey! What news did I take? It's out of date!"
"This is all from the old almanac!"
Jian Xiao was stunned for a moment, "How is that possible? I learned the news yesterday that the Turks had already attacked."
"Brother, if you want to make a fortune, be more proactive next time, but this time the news that the Crown Prince of Biga Kingdom is recruiting you personally is out of date."
Jian Xiao frowned, "How is that possible? How could my information be wrong?"
A middle-aged man came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, it's not easy to do this. Go back and practice again!"
Jian Xiao walked out of the door dejectedly, and suddenly said before leaving, "There is a traitor in the Duanmu Camp of Biga Kingdom!"
Everyone glanced at her first, then waved their hands, "Brother, take a break!"
Jian Xiao walked out of the inn, maybe because of her own misjudgment, or maybe it was really the Turkic general's clever plan. She got on her horse, and the news of the prince's personal expedition was to be conveyed to General Qin as soon as possible. She walked into the inn of Biga Kingdom and wrote an urgent letter.
She had never thought that there was someone who had been following her since she came out of the inn.
