Chapter 721 Qin Yin Ancient House of Flying Daggers ([-])

"...The Xiaocang River flows out of the valley, and the Gukou Dam was built at the beginning of the year, with a height of more than [-] feet. The southeast facing the Guguchi was originally the easiest for people to walk. Everyone has nothing to fear... As for the other sides of the valley, the roads are rough and difficult to navigate... It is not that there is no way to get in and out, but only experienced hunters can go around. At key points, watchtowers have also been built, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. , what's more, there are times when the 'hot air balloon' is chained to the observation deck to be vigilant..."

"...The army in the valley has been reorganized once since entering the mountain. In October last year, the star flag with a black background was set as the military flag. According to the rebel, the black background symbolizes firmness, determination, and unshakability. Chenxing means the star of the stars. Fire can start a prairie fire... After the adaptation, in the Wurui camp, there are about ten people in a squad, about 30 people in a row, and a company above the row, about a hundred people, and a battalion above the company, with about three to 500 people. Three battalions plus A special battalion is a regiment. At present, the rebel army has formed a total of five regiments, and some people call themselves the Black Banner Army or the Huaxia Army..."

"...The rebels train every three days, but the rest of the time there is something to do, and the rules are strict. After every six days, there is a day off. However, since the Bianliang collapse, the morale of the rebels has been high, and half of the soldiers are even reluctant to take a rest... ...that traitor set up many courses in the army, and he was taking advantage of the winter refugees to infiltrate the valley, and he was not qualified to attend the class, but when he heard about the rebellion in the valley, it was mostly outrageous words..."

In the dimly lit cave, a man dressed in shabby clothes from the mountain people stood there, explaining in detail what he had inquired about in a clear and organized manner.Sitting in front was Li Pin. He coughed occasionally and wrote down what the other party said in detail with pen and paper.There was sunshine at the entrance of the cave, and Tie Tianying was sitting. He put the giant sword on his knees, closed his eyes and rested, but when Li Pin occasionally asked some trivial things in the cave, he could vaguely see that Tie Tian. Eagle's mood is not good.

"That traitor didn't stop him from talking about the lack of food in the valley?"

"Why did no one mutiny?"

"How many refugees enter the mountains in winter?"

"How do they screen?"

The questions Li Pin asked were trivial and trivial. He often asked one question and got an answer, and then asked in more detail: "Why do you think this way?" "What are the signs that make you think this way?" The undercover agent in the CCP is the elite of the catching fast, and his thinking is clear, but he often can't help such inquiries.

But most of the problems were consistent with what Tie Tianying had already told Li Pin.

After the winter, the Xiaocang River's defenses have been relatively tight. The masters of Ning Yi's side have carefully surveyed the terrain around the river valley. Most of the time, Tie Tianying's subordinates have not dared to hunt fast. If you get close to it, you are afraid of scaring snakes.Of course, there was more than one undercover agent who infiltrated the Xiaocang River during the winter, but calling it out when it was not necessary, just to ask for some trivial details in detail, for him, it was almost finding fault.

The things in the Xiaocang River Valley were talked about a lot and a lot. The undercover agent was asked back and forth by Li Pin while coughing for most of the day, and many of them were still talking back and forth in the words of the car.After the inquiry was over, he said a few good words, and then said, "If there is anything missing, I will need this brother's help in the next two days." The things recorded, and the map he drew about the Xiaocang River.

"Mr. Li finished asking?"

"Cough, there may be things I haven't thought of." Li Pin frowned and read the descriptions.

"Then Mr. Li, please teach me, is there any discrepancy with the information recorded by Tie?"

"……not much."

"That's it! Come on, Mr. Tie really wants to be right with Mr. Li today, let's see which of these information Tie has misremembered, so that Mr. Li can remember the omissions in the next work. crime!"

Li Pin, who was originally reading the information, raised his head to look at him at this time, then put out his hand to cover his mouth, coughed a few words with difficulty, and said, "Li only wants to be safe, but Tie Caotou misunderstood."

"It's foolproof? Master Li, you know the eyes that I put so much effort into the Xiaocang River! Before the critical moment, Master Li, you call him out like this and ask some trivial things. !"

Li Pin was silent for a moment, and his eyes became serious: "I'm sorry, Sir Tie, your information is indeed too omissions, and the general direction is naturally correct. But the language is sloppy, and many places are just guessing... Cough cough cough..."

"Someone Tie has been in the punishment department for many years, and he knows more useful information than you, Master Li!"

"Cough cough... But are you his opponent!?" Li Pin grabbed a stack of things in his hand and threw it on the ground in front of Tie Tianying.He, a sick scholar, suddenly made such a thing, but it surprised Tie Tianying.

"Cough cough... Ning Yi and I haven't had many opportunities to work together, but we still have some understanding of his actions in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Zhuji and the Secret Investigation Division are under his control, and their requirements for information and intelligence Every piece is clearly understood, and those who can use numbers will never be ambiguous! It has reached the point of nitpicking! Cough... His methods are imaginative, but most of them are built on such nitpicking! Killing in his golden palace Jun's situation on that day, we have repeatedly deduced, he has at least a few backup plans, the most obvious one, his first choice must be the Lu Hongti of Qingmu Village. , cough cough cough..."

He babbled, talking about these things, and then lowered his head to pick up the pile of information: "Now that the North has fallen, I am weak here, and it is difficult for the government to help. If it is careless, it will only be death. Li. A certain heart knows that Lord Tie has his own way of handling cases, but if that system doesn't work, maybe the opportunity lies in these nitpicking little things..."

Tie Tianying was silent for a moment. He couldn't say that he was a scholar, but he would not be fooled by the other party's words. He sneered: "Hmph, where Tie cannot work, what did Mr. Li see?"

"There are many doubts, and I can't figure out the reason." Li Pin said softly, "It's just this Xiao Cang River, which is the biggest doubt. Why did he choose to stop here? On the surface, it can be said that it is the same as Qingmu The two ends of the village can be echoed. In fact, both ends are mountainous, and the roads are not smooth. He led 7000 people from the Wurui Camp to revolt, and defeated tens of thousands of troops twice. We have both land and people, and with the combat power of this group of people, the Xixia army will attack, and they will defend the city, and they will have the power to fight, which is far better than being trapped in the mountains at this time..."

Tie Tianying retorted: "It's just like that, the imperial army and the western army are taking turns to fight. He is facing the world, and it is difficult to have allies. How long can he last?"

"It's not necessarily that he can't hold it. Take a step back and say that he can't hold it anymore. Naturally, he can enter the mountains again. With the supplies of one city and one place, it will be better than the current situation." Li Pin tapped those in his hands. Intelligence, "And it seems that he has never regarded the current situation as a predicament at all. Taking in refugees during the winter will cost him food, and secondly, doesn't he know that the court will send people to watch him now? He even has spies. Not afraid, and directly drove away the envoy of Xixia, not afraid to offend the king of Xixia, how can there be such a person..."

"He is not afraid of spies." Tie Tianying repeated, "That may mean that some of the information I know now is some false information he deliberately revealed. Maybe he pretended to be calm, or maybe he had secretly talked to Xixia. People have contacts... No, if he wants to pretend to be calm, he should choose a city outside the mountain to guard it from the beginning. On the contrary, it is more likely that he has contacts with Xixia people in private, such people who have no king and no father, as such traitors It's not surprising at all."

"If he really has voted for Xixia, what I do here will be useless. But I always think it's impossible..." Li Pin glanced at Tie Tianying, "But in the middle, why is he not in the valley? It is forbidden for everyone to discuss the matter of saving grain. Why do people always discuss political affairs inside and outside the valley? It is necessary to know that the more people think about it, the more difficult it will be to control. Becoming rebellious, finding a dead end, rejecting Xixia, and accepting refugees in winter... These things...cough..."

The two were still quarreling, but Li Pin did not mess up. Many of what he said were also the doubts in Tie Tianying's heart.At this time, it was pointed out, and I felt more and more that in this valley named Xiaocanghe, many things were in a mess.

"Ha, adding these things together can only mean that Ning Liheng is already crazy!"

"It's fine if he's really crazy." Li Pin sighed slightly, "However, this person makes a plan and then moves, and he can never handle it with common sense. Hey, killing the king in court! I really planned to rebel. I left the capital first and arranged it slowly. Now that Jurchen is messing up the world, when will he have no chance. But he did it... You say he is crazy, but he is clear about the current situation, you and I are not as good as me , according to the news he released, within a year, all the north of the Yellow River will be handed over to the Jurchens. It seems that within three years, it is not impossible for the Wu Dynasty to lose the front line of the Yangtze River..."

"...I can't figure out what he's going to do."

With a murmur, Li Pin sat down on the stone behind him.Tie Tianying frowned and looked aside.After a while, he said, "I can't figure it out either, but one thing is clear."

"If he really took refuge in Xixia, and now he is backed by the mountains, no one in the entire northwest can do anything to him." Tie Tianying said, "But if not, he will never be able to fake the lack of grain in his valley. Before the grain runs out, He must have action! No matter what action it is, that is the best chance I am waiting for!"

After he finished saying this, he waved his hand suddenly, took two steps and stopped, looking back at Li Pin: "It's just that I'm worried, even this opportunity is in his calculations. Mr. Li, you are familiar with him, Your brain is easy to use, if there is any danger, you can figure it out for yourself!"

"Cough...cough..."

Tie Tianying left the hole. Li Pin sat there and coughed a few times. He took the information in his hand, opened it, looked at it, looked confused, frowned slightly, then leaned against the wall and closed it for a long time. Eye.

"You...what do you want to do..."

hoarse voice.The sun was pouring outside the cave, Tie Tianying walked up the hill, looked in the direction of Xiaocang River, and looked back to the southeast for a long time.

When he just took the mission to come here, he had a strong desire to prove himself.When the truth comes, the sex is fading, and the manpower is sometimes poor. He is not the opponent of this lunatic who wants to be the enemy of the world.Now, he knows that the reasons for everyone to stay here are slowly disappearing.In the news from Li Bandian, he knew that just in the southeast direction, dignitaries and dignitaries were leaving Bianliang. This was the weakening of an era, and the people who used to be in various fields were losing their color.

Wang Tongguan, the most prolific military man in the past few decades, died on the day Ningyi rebelled, and the emperor died on the same day.More than a month ago, Tang Ke, the left minister in charge of the court, was hanged in his home after meeting all the requirements of the Jurchen and hollowing out the Bianliang, but before he died, it was not without any action.The old man, who had always been the leader of the Lord and Sect, seized Cai Jing's house as soon as he took the position.Cai Jing, who used to be all over the world and manipulated the court for decades, was starved to death on the way to exile.

... In the past in 81, there was no home three thousand miles away, and I was alone with my own flesh and blood, looking at China in the distance and crying.The Golden Palace paid homage to the Prime Minister five times, and the Yutang Hall celebrated ten times. Reminiscing about the prosperity of the past, it has been turned into a dream here...

This is Cai Jing's last poem. It is said that he was disgusted by the people all over the world because of his many evil deeds, and he could not buy anything with gold and silver on the way to exile, but in fact, there is no such thing.The fact that the 81-year-old power minister will starve to death may also prove that the rest of the power figures may not have no complaints against him.

What's the use?
All the royal families in Bianliang City have been kidnapped, and now they are rushing back to the Jin Kingdom like pigs and dogs. When the officials head south, they really want to give up this place to the north.If the Yangtze River is the boundary in the future, this half of the world will collapse on his head at this time.

He looked back at Xiao Canghe and thought: This lunatic!

************
In May, the world is crumbling.

After the Jurchen went, a large number of officials in Bianliang City began to move south.

The emperor is no longer there, and the royal family has been swept away. The next successor must be the clan from the south.Although the situation is not yet finalized, there are also officials in the south: If you support the establishment and follow the dragon's work, do you have to hand over and let the idle people in the south wait?
Tong Guan, Cai Jing, and Qin Siyuan are all dead now, and the rest of the treacherous officials who were denounced as "seven tigers" by the people in Beijing at the time are now all dismissed and demoted, and the court has finally returned to the place of justice. In the hands of the soldiers, the people headed by Qin Hui began to cross the Yellow River mightily, preparing to support the new emperor.Zhang Bangchang, who had to accept the throne of the Great Chu Emperor, also promoted the transfer of various materials to the south during this May, and then prepared to go to the south to plead guilty.From Yanmenguan to the Yellow River, from the Yellow River to the Yangtze River, there are a lot of questions about whether people are going or staying, and for a while, even more chaos is brewing.

In the south, a solemn and festive atmosphere is gathering. In Jiangning, where Ning Yi once lived, Zhou Yong, the king of Kang who has nothing to do, will soon become the new emperor of the Wu Dynasty under the impetus of Princess Chengguo, Kang Xian and others.Some people have already seen this clue. In the city and the palace, Zhou Pei, the county owner, knelt on the temple, watching the kind old grandmother hand her the ring pendant, which symbolizes the Princess Palace of Chengguo, thinking about being driven to the north by the barbarians at this time. Earth, those Zhou family members who don't know their life or death, they all have tears.

The young prince was sitting on a high stone pier, looking towards the north, where the setting sun cast magnificent colors.He also sighed.

"...In the past 40 years, my family and country have been surrounded by mountains and rivers for three thousand miles. Fengge, Longlou, Lianxiaohan, Yushu and Qiongzhi are used to make tobacco. How many times have you ever known how to fight?"

This song "Break a Time" is Empress Li's words for the subjugation of the country. He looked at the flowing clouds in the sky and recited it in a low voice for a while, then he sighed.

"Master..."

He jumped off the stone pier and stood there, looking at the sunset for a long time, until the evening wind came and stroked his jacket, he waved his hand.

"I will carry forward the way of judging things, and I will help the Zhou family to defend the Wu Dynasty. Look at it."

He spoke in a low voice and made the decision.

He should be a prince.

- So you can build a bigger workshop!
It was a scorching summer, as if he had never felt the shattering of the outside world, and in the Xiaocang River, the days were passing by day by day.

By the end of May, a lot of news had already leaked out. The Xixia people blocked the southwest passage. Jurchen also began to rectify the smuggling of wealthy households in the Luliang area. Qingmu Village, the last few business routes, were being cut off.Not long after, Li Pin, Tie Tianying and others also learned of such news.

　That's right, the book "The Son-in-law" is now available in audio version on "Himalaya FM". I just listened to it myself, and I feel that the effect is very good.It's really cool that my own book can produce this kind of thing. Anyone who reads this book can search it.I searched for "Himalaya Audio Platform" on Baidu and then searched for "Zuofu", the anchor is called "Dancing Bar Yaju".I know that many of my readers may not have tried this before, and this is the first time I listen to it. I strongly recommend that anyone who likes this book should listen to the clip. It is very good and definitely has a novel feeling.It's not an ad, because that's how I feel.
