The Great Mongolian Kingdom has Daruchachi in every prefecture and county, but their ranks are different, both high and low.
That night, Daru Huachi from Taihe County received the news and hurried to Baihu Station outside Shuangfu Town. He saw a doctor sewing Zhang Hongdao's wound.
Blood was shed everywhere, and the scene was very tragic.
"What happened to Wulang? What happened?" he asked the Mongolian centurion present in Mongolian.
"I don't know yet..."
Finally, Zhang Hongdao finished treating his wounds and rested for a long time before he could catch his breath. He glanced feebly at the Mongols and Han people present, and finally said in Mongolian: "I don't know who sent someone to attack... I suffered." Injured, Eri Dunbari led his men to pursue him southward..."
After conveying this message, everything else was a trivial matter to Zhang Hongdao. He relaxed and fell asleep.
Before dawn, I heard someone calling softly.
"Goro, Goro..."
Zhang Hongdao opened his eyes and saw Shen Kai.
"Goro, are you okay? My knife..."
"Stop talking about this, is the matter settled?"
Zhang Hongdao was not as weak as he looked. He stood up and his eyes regained a somewhat capable look.
"Yes. I disguised myself as someone from Eridunbari and attacked two hundred households under the Di family at night..."
After talking in detail for a while, Shen Kai said in a determined tone: "This matter is a foregone conclusion. The Di family cannot be cleared. We should have waited until Wu Lang woke up, but the news from Yingzhou has also come back. It is very important. Only then did Wulang wake up."
"explain."
Shen Kai took out several letters from his arms. Since the candlelight in the room was dim, he opened them and read them in detail to Zhang Hongdao.
"The agent placed by the Song Dynasty in Yingzhou is called 'Tian Kui'. He is Di Cong's retainer and a native of Yingzhou. Seventeen years ago, Song general Yu Jie rushed to attack Kaifeng and Heyin. After severely defeating our army, the entire army returned. At that time, Tian Kui had received favors from Yu Jie. After Yu Jie was promoted to the deputy envoy of the Huaidong system and took charge of the defense of the Huaihe River, Tian Kui entered Di's house to deliver information to Yu Jie.
Later, Jie Jie was transferred to Sichuan, and Tian Kui continued to work for the Song Dynasty. Until three years ago, Xu Qingsou, the deputy prime minister of the Song Dynasty, criticized Yu Jie for being in charge of power alone and ignoring the courtesy of the king. Zhao Yun summoned him back with a gold medal secret order. During the imperial court, Yu Jie learned that something had happened, and became so angry that he became ill and died violently. Tian Kui heard the news and had no further contact with the Song court."
Hearing this, Zhang Hongdao sneered and said lightly: "It's just a common thing."
"The latest news has come back that Tian Kui has joined us."
"true and false?"
"There is no doubt about it. In the past fifteen years, he had had enough of being on tenterhooks. Seeing that Song Ting could no longer regain the northern land, his benefactor was dead, and none of his promises had been fulfilled, he was extremely disappointed. Moreover, Song Ting did not pay attention to protecting him. This time he will be easily found out by us. We have also controlled his family, so he must be sincerely surrendering."
Zhang Hongdao nodded and asked, "How much evidence does Tian Kui have of colluding with Song Ting?"
"a lot of."
"Take all this evidence, along with Chi Na's head, and hand it over to the Di family to make sure everything is done."
"Yes." Shen Kai continued: "Also, according to Tian Kui's confession, two days ago, he had arranged a new identity for Nie Zhongyou, pretending to be an officer and soldier sent by the Di family to Kaifeng, wearing the same clothes and letter. The order was complete. He said that this was the last thing he wanted to do for the Song Dynasty, so that we could get together and part ways."
"It's not easy to get together and disperse." Zhang Hongdao said coldly: "Send this information to our people and block all the roads to Kaifeng. I blocked this group of Song people. After they were killed, they continued to be framed by the Di family. ."
"Yes. Don't worry, Wulang. The appearance, stature, and false identities of these people have all been tricked by Tian Kui. They will never escape."
"Has Li Xia met with them?"
"I don't know yet." Shen Kai shook his head.
"Remember, I don't care about bullshit Nie Zhongyu, the key is Li Xia."
"Understood." Shen Kai said: "This matter is strange. According to the intelligence from the south, Nie Zhongyu is going to Kaifeng. There is a prince from the north who wants to rebel and contact him. But it doesn't seem right..."
Zhang Hongdao pondered and said slowly: "If there is someone who wants to rebel, it shouldn't be from our Huaibei family...nor will it be the Yan family, Wang family, or Shi family. If there must be someone, it is most likely to be Li Fen from Shandong. But if he wants to contact the Song Dynasty, he can just take the sea route directly, why go to Kaifeng?"
"The person from Lin'an doesn't know much about this. He only said that the prince had important information to give to Song Ting. In addition, the Jinglue Mansion did lose important documents two months ago, and we haven't found out who did it yet."
"No, if someone can inform Song Ting, the information can be sent together... After thinking about it, it is only possible that the person Song Ting originally worked in Kaifeng lost the news, so he continued to send people to see what happened. In other words, their purpose is very slim."
When Zhang Hongdao said this, his eyes became more and more confused, and he murmured: "Arrange this person to go north, let him bring the remnants of Dali with him, and use a spy who has not been in contact with him for three years as a cover... How is this different from committing suicide? Just because Do something uncertain?"
Shen Kai said: "So, Nanfang deliberately arranged a group of people to die. Why?"
Zhang Hongdao thought for a while and finally said a casual digression.
"After Jianyan, the most accomplished emperor of the Zhao and Song dynasties was probably Zhao Min. 'Zhuoran was the first among the emperors of the Southern Cross'. Yue Fei was rehabilitated, Yu Wenxuzhong was rehabilitated, ha... rehabilitated, rehabilitated, what's the point? Sorry? Let them be."
"yes."
Zhang Hongdao smiled sarcastically and said: "At the moment, a team of meticulous workers who are bound to die is not harmful at all, but among them there is a death row prisoner..."
After saying this, he turned over and sat up, asking for a glass of water.
"It was this death row prisoner who forced me to kill Eredunbari, leaving such a big hidden danger to the Zhang family. The result? The result was to let him complete such a meaningless errand? Ha... damn... ……ridiculous!"
At the last word "ridiculous", Zhang Hongdao almost laughed out loud with the most intense emotion.
He threw the water glass in his hand, his blood boiled, and he kept coughing.
"Ahem... He worked so hard like a madman to force me to this point... Ridiculous! Ahem... Ahem... I'm so angry..."
Shen Kai was also speechless.
For a long time, he patted Zhang Hongdao on the back and comforted him: "The situation that Song Ting has prepared in detail is probably not as good as what we know. If we set up defenses, we will definitely catch Nie Zhong... we will definitely catch Li Xia, and we will also invite Wu Lang." rest assured."
"I can't worry. No matter how flawlessly the killing of Eri Dunbari was done tonight, Li Xia can know the whole story. If I don't kill him, I won't feel at ease."
"yes."
"Let's do this." Zhang Hongdao slowly ordered: "After you find Nie Zhongyou, don't rush to take action. Keep an eye on him. When Li Xia shows up to join them, kill him directly. Also, be sure to rescue the eldest sister. "
Shen Kai thought for a while and then asked: "According to what Zhang Yanxiong said, Li Xia and the eldest sister... dare to ask Wu Lang if this person is willing to join us?"
Zhang Hongdao did not answer immediately, but pondered for a while.
Shen Kai added: "This person is a talented person. I think this incident will make him disappointed in Zhao Song. If we can win him over, he can be used by us and save the eldest sister..."
"No."
Zhang Hongdao finally thought about it, reached out and patted Shen Kai on the shoulder, and said: "The hidden danger of killing Daru Huachi is too great. I can trust you and dare you to stab me. I can also trust our brothers, because we are even together With roots, everything will be prosperous, and everything will suffer. But Li Xia is different. His family grew up in the south, and his roots are in the south, so he must die."
Shen was so moved that his eyes turned red.
He thought more about the Zhang family and said, "I would like to take the liberty to say one more thing. As long as the eldest sister is betrothed to Li Xia, he can share weal and woe with us."
"No." Zhang Hongdao was very determined, "To deal with such a ruthless person, if you hesitate even a little, you will fall into his trap. I can't afford this risk."
Shen Kai was still doubtful and asked: "What if Li Xia takes the eldest sister as a hostage? If anything happens, I'm afraid I won't be able to surrender in front of the commander..."
"I said it." Zhang Hongdao interrupted him and said coldly: "We must kill Li Xia, and we must rescue the eldest sister. Do you have any questions?"
