Although Liang Fuhui was delayed, Li Qi didn't know why but couldn't be happy.
He always felt that this matter was not that simple.
"Brother Li, how are you?" Wei Xinshan asked worriedly.
Li Qidao: "The matter has been resolved. Liang Fuhui will not send troops for the time being. Master and the others should have enough time to evacuate..."
Wei Xinshan was delighted: "That's great! Brother Li, thank you!"
"What's there to be thankful for?" Li Qi said with a smile, "Master can leave Feiyan Village, I am also happy."
As he spoke, he absent-mindedly sat on a chair nearby. Tang Yun poured him a glass of water and asked, "Master, you seem to have something on your mind?"
Li Qi thought for a moment and said, "I can't figure it out."
"What can't you figure out?" Tang Yun asked.
Li Qidao: "This Liang Fuhui seems to be hiding something from me...or rather from everyone."
"Oh? Why did the young master say that?"
Li Qi said: "Don't you think he is in a hurry?"
"urgent?"
"That's right, he arrived ahead of the agreed time. After arriving here, he couldn't wait to attack the stronghold... Now that a plague has broken out in the army, he is also eager to send troops..." Li Qi shook his head slowly.
, "No, it's too urgent..."
Tang Yundao: "Does he want to make meritorious deeds in a hurry?"
Li Qi pondered for a moment and said: "No...if he is eager to perform meritorious service, what is it for? Could it be that the third prince has other orders? But this time he is going on an expedition under orders. Even if the third prince has other orders,
He might also act recklessly."
"Is it possible that the young master is overthinking?" Tang Yun asked.
Li Qi touched his chin and said: "I hope...but for now, no matter what, at least Master and the others can evacuate Feiyan Village."
…
Li Qi began to use modern epidemic prevention methods. He first called all the military doctors and planted cowpox on some people. Then he started to ask those people to find people infected with smallpox in the military camp, and all those who had symptoms similar to smallpox were
Isolated together.
The person who planted the cowpox was responsible for all the daily food and daily living.
In order to delay time, Li Qi deliberately made some things very cumbersome, such as smallpox patients, who had to take a bath every day, perform personal cleaning, etc.
Anyway, he used all the methods he could think of.
That day, Li Qi wore homemade protective clothing and got into Huang Jin's tent.
Huang Jin sat aside boredly and was wiping his steel knife.
Li Qi discovered that people in this era like to polish weapons whenever they have nothing to do, and he doesn't know where the hobby comes from.
"Brother." Li Qi cupped his hands and said.
"Brother, are you exhausted these days?" Huang Jin put down the steel knife and asked.
Li Qi smiled and sat aside, poured himself a bowl of water, picked up the bowl and took a sip before saying: "Brother, did you find out anything?"
Huang Jin pursed his lips, stood up, went to the door of the military tent, opened the curtain and stuck his head out to take a look, then came back and sat down.
"Brother, your guess is indeed correct..." Huang Jin said.
Li Qi raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
Huang Jin whispered: "I asked people to find out a few days ago... This time I came to the outside of the pass not just to attack Feiyan Village."
Li Qi raised his eyebrows, and Huang Jin continued: "I was also puzzled before. The emperor sent a hundred thousand troops just to attack Feiyan Village. This is too fussy. Let's not talk about it. Is it necessary to have so many people, and such
Many people rushed all the way from Kyoto to the outside of the customs, which requires a large amount of military expenditure... Even if the emperor intends to do this, will other ministers really admire it? "
Huang Jin paused and said: "Brother, you said before that Liang Fuhui was in a hurry. He first arrived here in advance and then attacked the stronghold in no hurry... In fact, it was all because..."
"Because?" Li Qi asked.
Huang Jin pursed his lips and said, "Do you remember the Gaoyun tribe I told you about?"
"Gaoyun tribe?"
Huang Jin nodded: "Yes... the Gaoyun tribe is brave and good at fighting. The court spent a lot of effort to wipe them out... but there are some remnants left... and those remnants are lurking in the Snow Country and colluding with the Snow Country. It seems that
You want to offend me, Daxia."
Hearing this, Li Qi was startled and couldn't help but ask: "Brother, are you saying that the real purpose of our coming here this time is for the Gaoyun tribe?"
Huang Jin nodded: "That's right! Not only the Gaoyun tribe, but also the Snow Country!"
Li Qi took a deep breath: "Then why weren't we informed of this in advance?"
Huang Jin said: "It's a secret at this time. Even I haven't received the news. Only Liang Fuhui knows about it... and the news released this time is that the attack on Feiyan Village is actually a smoke bomb. The real purpose is to attack Feiyan Village from Guanbei."
Go directly to the capital of Snow Country and wipe it out in one fell swoop."
Li Qi smashed his mouth and licked his dry lips.
Grandma, is this too unexpected?
"What if we can't capture Feiyan Village?" Li Qi asked.
Huang Jin said: "It's impossible that we can't defeat it. With a hundred thousand troops, it's only a matter of time before we attack a stronghold... Liang Fuhui just wants to shorten the time."
As he spoke, Huang Jin added: "Our 100,000 people are just flanking troops. The main force must have already assembled and set off towards the Snow Country."
"Ah?" Li Qi said, "Brother, how do you know so clearly?"
Huang Jin took a deep breath and said: "When I came to tell me about this matter, I not only sent people to keep an eye on Liang Fuhui, but also sent people to investigate... The scout just came back today. Thousands of miles away from the Snow Country, the Changlu Army
, Xijiang Army, Guangxia Army, and the four armies formed the main force and have arrived in the Snow Country."
"How long does it take to get to Snow Country from here?" Li Qi asked.
"It takes a month to reach Snow Capital, the capital of the Snow Country." Huang Jin said.
"That means that the 100,000 of us are going to join the main force?" Li Qi said.
Huang Jin nodded: "According to the current situation, it should be."
"That Liang Fuhui hasn't revealed anything to us until now. He is really calm." Li Qi said.
"This may be the meaning above." Huang Jin's eyes flashed, "Brother, this is a good opportunity to make achievements, and the commander of this battle is General Tiance."
"Yu Boyi?" Li Qi blurted out.
Huang Jin nodded: "Yes, it is Lord Yu. He is also my mentor."
"Master Yu is your master?" Li Qi was a little surprised.
General Tiance Yu Boyi was the highest-ranking military attache in Daxia.
When Li Qi was at the door of the imperial study, it had been several years before he had ever met him.
But Li Qi didn't expect that Yu Boyi was Huang Jin's master.
"Brother, not many people know about this matter." Huang Jin said slowly, "Brother, please keep it secret. I will tell you the details of this matter later."
