Chapter 1,218 Chaos and Complexity

 "Ah this..." The corners of Mo Ya's mouth twitched slightly, but he failed to respond to Gu Xun immediately.

Although the boss's request was a bit confusing and confusing, Mo Ya understood the essence of Gu Xun's words immediately.

Obviously, my boss is discriminating against members of a vulnerable group.

However, Mo Ya felt speechless because his boss actually gave such a solemn order such a... nonsensical request. He himself understood Gu Xun's arrangement.

Don't get me wrong, Mo Ya has not seen Gongsun Linglong's face with his own eyes, it's just that the quicksand has information about the next head of the famous family.

Among them, the intelligence personnel repeatedly emphasized Gongsun Linglong's admirable appearance and the other party's narcissistic complex without the slightest bit of arrogance.

That such irrelevant information as beauty and ugliness can be emphasized repeatedly by intelligence officers undoubtedly shows the destructive power of the appearance of the famous heir.

Mo Crow is also a vulgar person, and he also likes eye-catching, same-faced skins.

Therefore, it is better to avoid this kind of eye-catching thing as much as possible. If it is really unavoidable, then let’s do it.

Thinking of this, the tone of Mo Ya, who had been secretly criticizing Gu Xun, became serious, "Sir, don't worry, my subordinates will make arrangements properly!"

Looking at Mo Ya's expression, Gu Xun knew that the other party probably knew what he was thinking, so he nodded with confidence, "Don't forget it."

Mo Ya nodded, then continued what he said before:

"That's basically all the things about Songhai City."

There is not much information about Songhai City that is really worth mentioning, but it is normal. After all, it is just a slightly more prosperous seaside city, not the center of a storm.

The mirage is a big deal, but it is meaningless to the vast majority of Jianghu people and even the anti-Qin forces - no matter how big a ship Ying Zheng builds, it has nothing to do with them, and they have no interest in going.

I'm not looking for some ridiculous overseas fairyland, and I have no interest in causing trouble for the empire on such nonsense.

Gu Xun obviously knew this and didn't care. He asked instead, "Well... what about other places?"

Mo Ya did not pause and spoke again, "There is too much other information, so I have only selected a few of the most important ones for the time being."

"First of all, it's the matter of Lingnan Baiyue."

"The 500,000-strong imperial army has basically been prepared, and the initial supply of food, grass, and weapons is sufficient, and it is ready to launch a war at any time."

"Same as the first agreed result, Guo Wei Tu Sui will be the main general and Ren Xiao will be the deputy general."

"Where's Nei Shi Teng?" Gu Xun interrupted Mo Ya.

"After secret operations, Master Nei Shiteng also joined the battle to conquer Baiyue as a partial general." Mo Ya replied.

What works for Nei Shiteng is naturally quicksand. After all, this Lingnan War is a piece of extremely delicious fat in the eyes of many people, and they all want to get a piece of oil and water.

Of course, it is not difficult to tell from Mo Ya's answer that Nei Shiteng is already considered one of theirs, or... a member of the eldest son's faction.

This legendary figure who accomplished the first act of destroying a country and rose to the rank of an important minister of the empire as a common man naturally placed great trust in the strength of the empire.

Therefore, he is not willing to completely fall into the quicksand, but he is very optimistic about the eldest son Fusu.

Neishiteng does not have a prominent family background, and does not even have a surname. Although he is famous and has outstanding abilities, his foundation in the court is still very shallow.

Unlike those deep-rooted big families, even though the battle for the throne is extremely dangerous, he is not qualified to sit on the fence and wait and see. He must choose a master he likes.

Otherwise, once there is a change of power, he is likely to be swept away by the aftermath and be knocked down again.

Therefore, he was very sensible when faced with the olive branch extended by Fusu, the acting eldest son of Liusha.

"That's enough." After hearing this answer, Gu Xun nodded with satisfaction.

The partial general, or the assistant general, is actually the deputy general. The three refer to the same meaning.

A large army generally has only one chief general, but the number of deputy generals under the chief general is not fixed. It mainly depends on demand.

One or two is never too few, three or five is never too many.

The expedition against Baiyue mobilized half a million soldiers and horses. Logically speaking, it is normal to have more than a dozen lieutenants... Maybe there are so many lieutenants this time, and Gu Xun doesn't understand.

In short, Nei Shiteng is now confirmed to be a partial general.

Of course, since Mo Ya deliberately only used the title of deputy general on Ren Xiao, it means that the actual authority of other deputy generals...or the partial generals should not be comparable to him.

But it doesn’t matter.

Neishiteng was not a serious military commander, but rather than his military exploits, it was his orderly governance of Nanyang that attracted more attention.

In fact, if he had the choice, Gu Xun would not want to find Nei Shiteng to be the one to intervene in the Lingnan matter, but he really had no choice.

In today's imperial court, there are only a few truly useful generals, and they are far from what they once were.

The most famous ones are always those old guys, but it is impossible for Ying Zheng to use them again in the Battle of Lingnan - if they give more credit to the old guys, the emperor's position should be given to them!

Among the younger people, Meng Tian is undoubtedly the most reliable, but the situation in the North is unclear and we cannot let him fall into the big mud pit in Lingnan.

In addition to him, Wang Li's military ability is also very good, but he doesn't have enough brains, and he is not close to the eldest son's faction, so he doesn't think about it.

After that...there really isn’t anything suitable anymore.

Nei Shi Teng is the most suitable.

Today’s empire is both rich in martial virtue, but not rich enough!

Gu Xun rubbed his brows, put aside his secret complaints about the imperial court, and instead told Mo Ya, "Remember to tell Nei Shiteng to focus on the appropriate access routes between the Central Plains and Lingnan. You can relax in other aspects."<

/p>

"I understand." After Mo Ya responded, he continued without batting an eyelid:

"Inside the imperial court, the preliminary plan for the expedition to Lingnan has been finalized. The troops will be divided into five groups and attack Baiyue from multiple directions at the same time."

"Attack Fujian and Yue East Ou all the way, South Vietnam two ways, and Xi Ou two ways."

Gu Xun waved his hand, signaling Mo Ya not to say anything further, "How to fight is a matter for the big shots in the court, so there is no need to talk about it."

"Yes." Mo Ya bowed his head and agreed, immediately changing the subject, "If we don't talk about the empire's affairs, there will only be one piece of news related to Lingnan."

Before Mo Ya could explain, Gu Xun took the lead and said in a quiet voice:

"Huh... It seems that Tianze still refuses to give up his wishful thinking of becoming the King of Baiyue."

Mo Ya nodded imperceptibly, "Sir, you are right."

"In response to our lobbying, Tianze chose to delay again and again, never giving a clear answer, and secretly colluding with South Vietnam and other countries."

"At the same time, he also began to clear up the quicksand's arrangements of the Minyue generation in Dongou."

At this time, Gu Xun once again chose a road and turned in, finally seeing some vendors and shops appearing at the end of the street from a distance.

Maybe it's because it's a little close to the General's Mansion, but they only do business in the second half of this street.

Seeing that he finally walked back to the street, Gu Xun's face showed joy, and he became a little less concerned about Tianze's affairs - of course, he didn't care much about it in the first place.

"I originally thought that I would try to save his life after knowing each other for many years, but I didn't expect that he insisted on being a fool..."

"Looking at how much Liusha has earned over the years, I won't argue with him anymore and withdraw all of Liusha's power."

"Well... that fleet should be handed over to the empire, otherwise they should rush it."

"My subordinate has noted it down." Mo Ya bowed slightly and responded.

Gu Xun walked a little faster and added, "Remember to ask for money, the boat is not free."

A smile that couldn't be concealed appeared on Mo Ya's lips, "This subordinate will never forget this."

In a few words, the two of them had reached the end of the street and returned to the lively streets of the seaside city... Of course, this place is a little more remote and may not be so lively.

Gu Xun didn't care, as long as there were a few people around him to keep him entertained, the focus now was to listen to Mo Ya's statement of information.

"This is the information related to Lingnan that is worth mentioning." Mo Ya took a breath and continued his work without stopping, "Finally, there are two pieces of news related to various schools of thought."

"One is the civil strife in the farmers' families."

"After the disappearance of Tian Guang, the peasant hero, the fragile balance that was barely built between Tian Santang and foreign surname Santang began to collapse in recent days."

"The internal conflicts and struggles among farmers are gradually escalating and... developing out of control."

"The most important thing is that there are rumors that the farmer Shennong Ling has appeared again."

"Haha." Gu Xun grinned twice, not caring about the ordinary people passing by him from time to time - of course he would make sure that the communication between him and Mo Ya would not be heard by others, "Snatch, after all, it's still

Those who are capable."

The infighting among farmers escalates. The driving force behind the scenes is of course the gongs in ten places and the snares in nine places. But in fact, the snare can only be regarded as a chess piece to be used, or to save face, it is a tool.

The real pusher is naturally Liusha, including the Shennong Order that was used by Luowang to divide the peasant family, and was accidentally obtained by them under Liusha's design.

"Do you think Zhao Gao will notice something is wrong?"

After Mo Ya pondered for a while, he nodded, "I'm not sure, but based on the calculations of the Zhongchefu Ling, I can probably see some disharmony."

"I think he should at least have some guesses."

"That's right. Zhao Gao has a lot on his mind. Just because Mo Ming got the Shennong Order, it's impossible for him not to be suspicious." Gu Xun nodded, more agreeing with Mo Ya's view, but he wasn't worried about it, "Okay.

Now, even if he knows, he will cooperate with us to continue this drama."

In any case, the farm family that has a close relationship with Lord Changping is an obstacle that needs to be cleared for Zhao Gao, who supports the eighteenth prince Hu Hai.

Although Lord Changping was nominally in the hands of his nephew and eldest son Fusu, this does not mean that the farm family and Fusu were in conflict.

After all, when it comes to matters between an uncle and a nephew, how can anyone comment on them?

In line with the principle of preferring to kill the wrong person rather than let it go, Zhao Gao will naturally not give up this free opportunity, not to mention that the destruction of the farmhouse itself is a big achievement, and he can get a lot of profit from it.

Of course, the peasant family is different from the Mohist family. Although the name of the 100,000 gang members has gathered a huge momentum, which has attracted a certain degree of fear and surveillance from the imperial court, they have not been completely labeled as rebels after all.

If you are not a rebel, you cannot openly send troops to conquer.

And what Zhao Gao wants to do now is to force good girls into prostitution... which may not be very appropriate.

In short, he wants to let the peasants take the path of rebels step by step.

Now is the first step, but his actual purpose is not to divide the peasant family, but just to set fire to it.

Only when all the higher-ups of the farm family take charge can the subsequent plans be carried out more smoothly.

Relying on his understanding of the plot, Gu Xun can now roughly guess Zhao Gao's overall plan.

Anyway, he thinks it's pretty good. He's not a chamberlain. He's just good at calculations. He wouldn't be able to do this.

"It seems..." Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Gu Xun's mouth curled up unconsciously, "The farmer will most likely be the first to eat crabs among all the disciples."

"I think so, they are the only ones who are more suitable, and there is also..."

When Didi Gu got here, Gu Xun stopped talking.

Mo Ya was a little confused when he heard this and asked, "Sir, what do you mean, the farmer's family will be the first to be wiped out?"

"Ha! Of course not." Gu Xun shook his head, "There are one hundred thousand disciples, we can't waste them so easily."

"The first thing I said is other aspects."

Gu Xun didn't say what the specific aspect was, and Mo Ya was too sensible to ask.

Seeing that Gu Xun had no intention of continuing to speak, Mo Ya quietly continued what he had said before:

"Second, it's a matter of Taoism."

"There was a rebellion in the Taoist sect. The elder Mu Xuzi took the treasure and rebelled and fled. His current whereabouts are still uncertain."

"At the same time, something seems to have happened to Tianzong, but I don't know what it is."

Gu Xun put his hands behind his back and walked leisurely from stall to stall. He glanced sideways at the scorching sun on the sea and sighed softly:

"Tianzong... too, it's almost time."

"The ten-year period has arrived..."

After saying this, Gu Xun couldn't help laughing.

Forgive him for unconsciously thinking of the scene where Xiao Meng twisted his mouth.

But to be honest, that stubborn little girl back then might really come to him again, launch a counterattack and slap him in the face as the head of the Tianzong, and laugh at his own short-sightedness.

Of course, she will definitely not twist her mouth!

"Let's leave it as it is with the Taoist family. There's no need to delve too much into it. Let them separate it from the Yin-Yang family." After reminiscing about his old friends like an old man, Gu Xun waved his hands in disinterest, "I don't have any other information.

If so, you can go and do your business."

Mo Ya shook his head, "Sir, there is another piece of information - news from Chen Ping has come out."

News about Chen Ping is naturally news about Beidi.

Unlike the Central Plains region, which reports almost every two days, Chen Ping's news has always been unstable, and the intervals are never short.

There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, the grassland is such an environment. Even if Bai Feng follows him, Chen Ping cannot make great efforts to spread some trivial things.

By the way, the news that Chen Ping sent back before was basically not good news.

The situation among the foreign races in the north is much more corrupt than Liusha and other senior officials expected. Even with Chen Ping's ability, he is still in trouble most of the time when he gets there.

After all, magical power is no match for Heaven.
