"Alas... But I can't go to greet you in person. You prepare all your gifts and go to Yishui Crossing."
"Hi!"
The time for the alliance was getting closer, and Ji Si was feeling quite nervous. Originally, he was not worried, but as more and more assassinations occurred, this tense atmosphere made everyone inside and outside very cautious.
Eating every day is a battle to prevent someone from poisoning you.
There are also a lot less social activities, after all, we have to prevent anyone from using a honey trap.
Even the official actors and actresses of Qi State are now being used as much as possible.
Ji Si's life is now quite dull.
"Young Master, Jiangyinzi is so powerful in the Central Plains. You should treat me with courtesy."
"I know, but I can't help myself."
Frowning, the young master had already faced his staff and felt a little helpless. At this time, it was actually best to win over Li Jie, who was in the limelight.
Moreover, the retainers from Gusu had already told him that Li Jie was the top-grade Wu Gou left to him by the king.
Whoever dares to oppose him in the future, Li Jie's top-grade Wu hook can be used to kill any disloyal minister.
It's a pity that the problem is a bit serious now. The young master just wants to resolve the alliance issue quickly and return to Gusu quickly.
If he doesn't become a prince for a day, he won't be at ease.
If you die outside, that's really the end of it.
"Master!"
The young master and his staff were looking sad when suddenly a scholar rushed in from outside with a flustered expression. After bowing to Ji Si and accusing him, he loudly said: "Young Master! The fierce man is crossing the border and is going to the Kingdom of Cai!"
"Heading to Cai Guo?"
Ji Si looked strange, "Didn't Li Jie return victoriously?"
"Young Master! Rumors have spread in Si that the fierce man has once again sworn his allegiance and is going to the Cai Kingdom to defeat Cai!"
"Beat Cai?!"
When someone heard the news, they immediately exclaimed, "We just finished fighting the Song Dynasty, how can we fight against the Cai Kingdom again!"
"Wait less, Li Zi is attacking Cai, how many people will respond?!"
"All the countries in the Jianghuai River followed and responded. There were also three thousand 'righteous men' and twenty thousand 'righteous followers', called an 80,000-strong army, passing through the Jianghuai River and heading straight towards Cai Guo!"
"How...how does this happen?!"
"Don't be impatient!" An old doctor stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, then stepped out of the queue and bowed, "Sir, if this is the case, you should go to Li Zi to reward the army!"
"Um?!"
Someone reacted and their eyes lit up, "That's right! Young master is like this, it's just right to hand over to Jiang Yinzi!"
"There are so many assassins here and the rangers have no calculations. How can they be so dangerous?!"
"How many assassins can defeat an army of tens of thousands?"
While they were making a noise, the scholar who came to report the news said again: "One of the reasons why the strong man attacked Cai Guo was that Cai Guo was rude. A few days ago, an assassin assassinated the strong man at a night banquet and killed him for the strong man. After investigation,
, it was Cai Guo’s instigation.”
"Is this happening?!"
"This place is quite far away from Biyang Kingdom, and the information is not very well-informed."
"There are so many defense passes in the city of Biyang State now that it is really inconvenient to travel there."
Such breaking news was still unknown, which somewhat shocked the young master.
After a while, Ji Si asked the visitor: "Has Li Jie been injured?"
The visitor hesitated for a while, lowered his head and clasped his fists: "The assassin killed the tough man on the spot. At that time, the tough guy used the case as a shield and smashed the assassin to death."
There are not many details, but the entire lobby is half silent.
Everyone knows that Li Jie, the savage leader, can fight. Since his debut, he has relied on brutal means to get things done.
Now that I hear it, I feel like a god.
"Such a fierceness, unheard of..."
"Your Majesty is far-sighted."
"If you can show kindness to a strong man, you can expect great achievements in the future!"
Many people are excited. With a strong general like Li Jie, if there are any mountains in the country in the future, they can just use Li Jie to kill them. The country is really in turmoil, and using Li Jie's head will naturally pacify the country.
As for the great cause, Li Jie's "opening up the frontier with his words" has already contributed to "Tan Jun's land donation". The rest only needs to go through a process.
Once Ji Si ascends the throne, this is majesty and benevolence.
In addition to the Tan Kingdom, there is also the Biyang Kingdom, which is also waiting for Ji Si's contribution to the expansion of the territory, and it is not based on war, but on virtue.
And all of this was brought about by Li Jie.
Thinking of this, the young master also became firm-minded. Minions like Li Jie were worth the risk for him.
After making up his mind, Ji Si said seriously: "I want to go to the army in person, what do you think?"
"Young Master is wise!"
"Young Master is wise!"
"Young Master is wise!"
…
Not long after, the entire Wu camp began to get busy. After Wu Jia was dispatched, the entire Xu City was bustling with excitement.
"Young Master of Jin..."
"It's from Wu."
"Why did the young master leave the city?"
"I don't know."
Soon, news spread, and people in Xu City already knew that it was King Wu who ordered the fierce man Jiang Yinzi Li Jie to cross the border.
It's just that this time the transit was a bit noisy.
"Eighty thousand troops?!"
"This is the legend, but I don't know whether it is true or not!"
"Did the macho man come here to support the young master?"
"This... is unknown."
All kinds of true and false news began to spread, and the intelligence dealers suddenly became a hot target.
The originally dilapidated southeast corner of Xucheng has now become a gathering place for intelligence dealers and political brokers.
Although the environment is a bit bad, you can find all kinds of luxury consumption here.
Even the general officials of the female clan of Qi State have special persons in charge here to negotiate business.
There are intelligence dealers who have become rich overnight, there are also all kinds of desperadoes, and there are countless strange Qi martial arts.
The most common type of warrior is a down-and-out samurai who is brave and fierce. Yesterday he was a poor man, but today he may have made a big deal and become rich.
No one will really underestimate the poor people in this area, because no one knows when they will become rich.
For those with special skills, Xu Di, which is like a battlefield but not a battlefield, is simply a paradise.
"Have you ever gotten any information?"
"Um?"
In the dilapidated shack, there is actually the fragrance of tea, not only the fragrance of tea, but also the fragrance of women. The woman playing the piano, wearing silk and satin, has a cleanly decorated compartment with an incense burner, and from time to time there is a tinkling tinkling sound.
came.
However, only the boss of Haotian God knows whether it has cultivated people's sentiments.
The information dealer in the shack had a humble appearance. He stretched out a hand and weighed it there.
The person who asked the question narrowed his eyes slightly and held the hilt of his sword with one hand. However, the information dealer did not take it seriously and also pressed one hand on his own sword.
"This is Cao Guo's gold coin."
Wow.
An exquisitely crafted bag was taken out of his arms and thrown onto the table.
The table is very new, made of zelkova wood, and its shape is exactly the same as the table in Jiangyin-eup.
Click.
The intelligence dealer grabbed the bag, threw it back, and the bag fell into his palm. He weighed it and nodded with satisfaction: "Press it, it is indeed gold."
Just as he was about to put the bag in his arms, a hand pressed his wrist: "Huh?!"
"Hmm."
The information dealer didn't mind, and whispered, "Here comes the fierce man. There are three thousand 'righteous men' and twenty-six thousand 'righteous followers'. From the rest of the Jianghuai countries and states, Jiang, Liao, Huang, Xian, Jiang, Dao,
After saying that, seeing that the other party was still holding his wrist, the intelligence dealer continued: "This crossing is not for Young Master Si, but to force Yangcheng to swear an oath and then attack Cai."
"Beat Cai?"
"Cai Guo was rude and assassinated a strong man at a night banquet. The strong man was furious, so he attacked Cai."
"this……"
The other party had a look of astonishment. The intelligence dealer was afraid that the other party would not believe it, so he quickly said, "Although this matter has been sealed by Force Yang Kingdom, the officials and generals of other countries still know about it."
These words revealed some details, that is, the origin of the information, which may have been sold by a doctor or general of a certain country.
The efficiency of information transmission is very low, not to mention that it is even more difficult when the "Second Ring Road" is built in the country of Biyang. It is impossible to break through this arrangement with private power.
Just by arresting the "dog spy", many veteran intelligence dealers have already overturned the situation in Yang Kingdom.
Therefore, most of the information that can be sold now is relatively reliable, because it is leaked by "officials" on their own initiative.
"A macho man only has 'righteous men' under his command?"
"Only 'righteous men', crocodile men and brave men, stayed in Biyang Kingdom to prevent the Song people from cheating. This time, the person leading the troops in Biyang Kingdom is a strong man assisting Sha Dong."
"Although this man is not a fierce general, he is very clever."
A little disappointed, but also a little happy.
"Why did Cai people assassinate the strong man?"
"Hehehehe..."
The information dealer suddenly laughed and weighed the money bag in his hand. The gold coins in it were rattling, "Although you are kind-hearted, I also have a conscience, but... this little gold is not enough."
