Chapter 92: Murder...
"You really believe that boy?"
In the warehouse in the backyard of the Han family, watching his son directing his servants to count valuable assets, the old man was speechless while holding a crutch.
"It's right to prepare for it..." Han Wu frowned and said, "It's nothing wrong anyway, what if the news about Mr. Jiang is true?"
"Nothing happens!" The old man spat: "Don't deal with him!"
"I said, "Old man..." Han Wu's turn was puzzled: "Why do I feel like you are very targeting others? Even if he is like you said, a fake guy, he was the benefactor who saved your son on the boat. He wouldn't be so disliked, right?"
"You know, this group of people do everything they have purpose!"
"This group of people?" Han Wu was stunned.
The old man paused and fell silent for a moment. He did not reply to Han Wu's doubts. He turned around and said, "Anyway, I have advised you, dad, don't regret it!" As he said that, he left the warehouse without looking back.
Han Wu stood there in a daze, feeling inexplicable, but he also vaguely felt that his old man seemed to have something to hide from him.
"Master..." Just after the old man walked out of the warehouse, a tall old man appeared in the shadow next to him. The old man was wearing a green shirt. Although he was old, he looked very burly. He stood respectfully behind Mr. Han and said respectfully: "Do you doubt the uncle's guests and those twenty years ago..."
"Shut up!" Old Master Han's eyes flashed with a splendor, and his momentum became extremely sharp in an instant. Although the voice was not loud, it was like a sword that left his body, and it was completely different from the stubborn old man before!
And what's strange is that the old man's eyes flashed with this low shout, and a faint green light flashed...
"This is the last time!" The old man lowered his voice again, his emotions restrained like a volcano before the eruption: "Don't mention what happened twenty years ago!"
"I understand..." The tall old man closed his eyes slightly and retreated to the shadow. The sky was blue and white, and it disappeared strangely, and disappeared in an instant.
------------------------------
On the other hand, Jiang Shengze was in the house, while meditating, constantly thinking about this incident.
Han Wu said that the money shop had already sent someone to inquire about his background, but he had not taken any extreme actions. Obviously, Jiang Sheng’s previous news was a bit shocking. He didn’t know the depth of Jiang Sheng for a while, so he didn’t dare to cross the line too much.
But Jiang Sheng knew that if nothing happened three days later, the other party might change his way immediately, and even Han Wu's attitude towards him would change.
My efforts and disguise over the past few days have crises of overturning.
There is no way to do this. One is that your foundation is really weak. If you don’t go astray, you will definitely be backfired. The second is that you have insufficient intelligence.
Without enough information, he could only choose to blindly follow the prince. With Jiang Sheng's current perception, he could not understand that Duke Tang wanted to rebel against this news, but he also knew that the news of the prince was 90% true!
Very passive, quite passive. Sure enough, intelligence is too important. Even if I focus on overseas forces in the future, the Central Plains intelligence agencies must be established. Otherwise, if you are blinded like now, something will happen sooner or later...
Just like now, not only do you know the outside situation at all, but even if you successfully escape from Qingyang, you will fall into someone else's territory after going to Moyang, and you may be more passive.
But Mo Yang must go again. In addition to Yuwen Hu, there is also the ultimate purpose of Jiang Sheng's visit to the Central Plains this time, which is the location of the fragments prompted by Huaguo Mountain!
Yes, it's in Moyang!
---------------------------------------
Outside the city, only two days after the last fight, Qingyang was surrounded by three groups. Except for the west gate in Linhai, the remaining three gates were filled with black army!
Seeing this, Liu Shihong, who was guarding the city, felt a little nervous. Han Xiao's posture seemed to swear to destroy Qingyang. Judging from the size of this army, he was afraid that he would start at 100,000!
Even with Tianlin Army's assistance and Major General Yuwen Hu in the city, Liu Shihong still couldn't calm down and couldn't help asking Meng Tingye, who was sitting on the city wall next to him, closed his eyes and rested: "General, when will the reinforcements arrive?"
"Why are you panicking?" The general named Meng was too lazy to open his eyes: "When you reported to the county magistrate yesterday, you still swear that Qingyang City is strong and there is enough food. Is it okay to stay for a month?"
Liu Shihong choked after hearing this, and finally could only give in and smile: "Didn't you know that the opposite side is so cruel? Even Han Xiao came in person!"
"Of course they will come in person!" General Meng finally opened his eyes and glared at the other party and said, "Are you all brainless? The Zijing Pass is broken, Qingyang is the last nail in the northwest of Bingzhou. If you can't conquer Bingzhou in the future, you can swallow half of the territory of Bingzhou. What a great strategic significance, how can you not do your best?"
"The general said yes..." Liu Shihong laughed in a grievance.
Seeing the other party's condition, General Meng snorted coldly and said lightly: "Don't worry, I'm here. Even if Han Xiao finishes his family's fortune, he can't get into Qingyang City!"
Tianlin Jun is really as arrogant as the rumor...
Liu Shihong complained in his heart, hoping that he would be as arrogant as the major general.
Knowing that communication was impossible, Liu Shihong said goodbye and got up to inspect other city gates.
When he walked down the city gate, the scribe in the green shirt who had been following Liu Shihong spoke: "General, something is wrong."
"Huh?" Liu Shihong was slightly stunned. The young man was named Wang Yu. He was a disciple he recruited. He was also a Juren. Now the court is corrupt and the organization is bloated. Many scholars from serious Jinshi were not filial to the official position, let alone Juren. This young scholar was born in poor background and had never waited for an official position.
There are many such situations nowadays, and many aristocratic families recruit talented poor families as their disciples. The young man is not very old, but his knowledge is very experienced. He has helped him a lot in recent years and has also made Liu Shihong trust him quite.
“What’s wrong?”
"General Meng is too calm..."
"This is normal!" Liu Shihong laughed and said, "Don't look at that old guy's mouth is very harmful. He is a good player in war. He fought with Duke Tang and directly defeated the Mobei Royal Court in name only. Han Xiao is a junior to him, so he will not be in vain!"
Wang Yu frowned and shook his head: "Yu has heard of the record of Old General Meng, but he still thinks it is wrong."
"What do you mean?" Liu Shihong said curiously.
"It's too relaxing..." Wang Yu narrowed his eyes and said quietly: "From the state of the old general and those brave generals, they are not as good as their attitude towards the enemy. Han Xiao's record in recent years is recognized. He has never lost against the court except for the battle in Lumingguan, Northwest. Faced with such an opponent, he still has a situation of less enemies and more. This is a bit exaggerated no matter how you say it."
"This..." Liu Shihong hesitated for a while and said again: "Maybe he knows that Tianlin Army's support will arrive soon."
"That shouldn't be like this..." Wang Yu pointed outside the city: "Han Xiao divided his troops into three places, and there were at least 30,000 soldiers outside each city gate, and there were sufficient preparations. The construction equipment and the huge cannon fodder of refugees were obviously in a state of full strength."
"Look at us again? The ten thousand Tianlin Army in the city were added. The soldiers guarding the city were only about 15,000, and there were only 5,000 soldiers who were guarding the three gates. Moreover, because Han Xiao broke through the pass too quickly, he was ready to be hasty, and the number of arrows, rolling stones and other factors was seriously insufficient. In this state, he could be broken at any time. How could he be so comfortable just because he had support?"
"And it's not active in preparation..." Wang Yu paused for a moment and continued: "From the beginning to the end, everyone has been nervous and urging the city guard equipment to replenish the equipment. You, General Meng, is so strong, but he has never asked about this. Don't you find it strange?"
"Then what did you think is the situation?" Liu Shihong frowned.
"Sir..." Wang Yu bit, "You said... will General Meng have collusion with the one outside!"
"What are you talking nonsense?" Liu Shihong said angrily.
"I'm making a mistake..." Wang Yu quickly lowered his head. He also felt that this speculation was a bit absurd. General Meng was a hero who fought against the Northern Barbarians and shouldn't have doubted it like this, but the inexplicable atmosphere was really weird.
"You can't say such words in the future!" Liu Shihong warned.
"yes……."
Liu Shihong nodded, but the direction of riding the horse changed slightly. He did not go directly to the East City Gate to inspect, but to spare the way and plan to go to the government office.
Although he himself thought it was impossible, he still had to be careful if the prince had a noble status and was the only one of Liang Kings. There must be no surprises. Let me mention it to him.
But when I was riding a horse to the government office, I bumped into someone I didn't expect.
"Major General?" Liu Shihong was stunned for a moment. The familiar lineup and outfit were the young white horse and silver spear, and behind him was the team of personal soldiers who had followed him into the Thousand-Man Cavalry Formation.
Isn’t he assisting in defending the East City Gate? Why did he come here?
"Yo!" Yuwen Hu's handsome face suddenly showed the boy's unique sunny smile: "What a coincidence?"
"Where is the Major General here?" Somehow, a strong sense of uneasiness arose in Liu Shihong's heart.
