Li Lingrui's expression was very calm at this time, but people who know him well know that the more he looks like this, the angrier he is.
The person in charge of intelligence could only bite the bullet and said: "Everything... is burned!"
Even though Li Lingrui was mentally prepared, his head was buzzing and he almost lost his footing.
The person in charge of intelligence quickly stepped forward to support Li Lingrui, and then motioned to the deputy general to lower the tent curtain.
Li Lingrui sat down on the chair with the help of the person in charge of intelligence, and it took him a long time to recover.
At this time, he no longer cared about his image. He stared at the person in charge of intelligence with red eyes and asked, "Tell me, how did Jin Feng's people sneak into the party?"
"Judging from the information collected so far, they put on the clothes of our party members, pretended to be our people, and sneaked in from Qin!" the intelligence chief replied.
"Thousands of people have sneaked in. Even if they are disguised as party members, you should be careful. Why are they allowed to get close to the transport team?"
The catapult and heavy crossbow that he had placed great hope on were burned to the ground. At this time, Li Lingrui wanted to kill the person in charge of the intelligence with a knife!
The person in charge of the intelligence explained with a grimace: "Your Majesty, they should have only sneaked in one or two hundred people, and they were divided into one or two or two or three people. We thought they were spies, so we didn't conduct a large-scale search..."
Before the person in charge of intelligence finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Lingrui: "Nonsense, how can one or two hundred people attack a transport team? Besides, I have sent people for reinforcements!"
"Your Majesty, we found a few horsemen who managed to escape. According to them, the Dakang people first killed our falcon and commander with grenades, and then used airships and hot air balloons to block both ends of the valley..."
There are thousands of people guarding the transport team, Gamafu, so it is inevitable that a few will slip through the net.
The person in charge of intelligence noticed that something was wrong with the situation in the north, and when he sent people to investigate, the musket company had already escorted the prisoners away, but the person in charge of intelligence found the hidden fish that had slipped through the net.
Through the accounts of these grooms, the person in charge of intelligence was able to roughly reconstruct the battle process of the sneak attack.
"First blow up the falcon, then send out the hot air balloon..."
Li Lingrui suddenly thought of Luolinggou.
At that time, Jin Feng also used this method to kill the Black Cloud Tribe!
Thinking of this, Li Lingrui wanted to slap himself.
Jin Feng has obviously used this trick before, why didn't he think of it?
The person in charge of the intelligence noticed the regretful expression on Li Lingrui's face, and knowing that the time was almost up, he quickly knelt down on one knee, lowered his head and apologized: "I let Dakang people infiltrate the party, which is a dereliction of duty. Please punish me!"
Seriously speaking, this matter is indeed a failure of the intelligence agency.
However, it is taboo to change generals on the spot, and it is such an important position as the head of the Intelligence Department.
The intelligence department is the eyes and ears of the coach. Li Lingrui and this person in charge have been getting along for many years, and they already have a tacit understanding. If they change people, they will definitely not be as easy to use as this person.
What's more, the person in charge of intelligence does have difficulties in this matter.
If one or two people suspected of being Dakang spies were found and heavy troops were sent to round them up, I'm afraid sending half of the southern expedition army would not be enough.
When the deputy general saw the intelligence chief kneeling down, he also knelt down quickly: "The people sent by my subordinates failed to meet the transport team in time, please punish me!"
At this time, Li Lingrui's mood had calmed down. He did not immediately kill the intelligence chief and deputy general out of anger, but waved his hands tiredly: "You guys go down first, I have something to think about!"
In his strategic deployment, catapults and heavy crossbows occupied an important position. Now that the catapults were burned, he must rearrange them!
The person in charge of the intelligence breathed a long sigh of relief and quickly left with the deputy general.
It has to be said that the person in charge of the intelligence knew Li Lingrui very well and was very good at observing words and choosing opportunities.
If he and the lieutenant had asked for forgiveness as soon as they arrived, Li Lingrui, in a rage, might have directly ordered them to be killed, so the person in charge of the intelligence deliberately used words to guide Li Lingrui to regret and blame himself.
Then when Li Lingrui blamed himself, he went to apologize again.
Li Lingrui, who was in the midst of self-blame, did not immediately impose punishment as he expected.
They also escaped with their lives.
In the tent, Li Lingrui actually noticed the little thoughts of the intelligence chief, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. Instead, he closed his eyes and thought about what happened in the past few days.
Although compared with the hundreds of thousands of southern expedition troops, the two battles at Luolinggou and the transport team can only be regarded as small conflicts, but in fact, the number of participants in these two battles exceeded 5,000, which was already considered a large-scale battle.
's battle.
And this is also the first confrontation between him and Jin Feng!
It's a pity that both battles ended in his disastrous defeat!
What's even more ironic is that both battles were ambushes - he sent 10,000 elites to ambush Jin Feng's 1,000 men and failed, while Jin Feng only sent one or two hundred men to ambush his thousands of men, but succeeded.
Got it!
No matter how unconvinced he was, Li Lingrui still had to admit that he lost both of these two confrontations!
A complete loss!
However, Li Lingrui did not dwell on the fact that he could not change, but reflected on it from the bottom of his heart.
Li Lingrui thought that he had paid enough attention to Jin Feng before, but now he suddenly realized that he still underestimated Jin Feng.
Previously, in his subconscious mind, Jin Feng always believed that the war was won by relying on various new weapons.
Only now did he know that Jin Feng didn't just rely on weapons!
Thinking of this, Li Lingrui reviewed the battle between Luolinggou and the transport team in his mind.
The more he analyzed, the more Li Lingrui thought Jin Feng was scary!
From Jin Feng's perspective, whether it was a counter-ambush in Luolinggou or an active ambush by the transport team, Jin Feng's handling methods were textbook level!
In both battles, Jin Feng's side was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, but he used various methods to maximize his own advantages and minimize the enemy's advantages!
During the battle at Luolinggou, Jin Feng must have discovered the Heiyun tribe long ago, but he did not change his route. Instead, he pretended not to know and continued to move forward. Then he sent people to ambush in Luolinggou secretly before the Heiyun tribe.
.
During the sneak attack on the transport team, Jin Feng repeated his old tricks, first killing his own falcons, then dispatching airships and hot air balloons, and quickly took over the dominant position on the battlefield!
Li Lingrui asked himself, if he were put in Jin Feng's position, he would not be as calm and calm as Jin Feng!
It was getting slightly brighter, so Li Lingrui slowly walked out of the tent, took a breath of the biting cold wind, and then had someone call the person in charge of intelligence over.
"Send the horseman from the transport team over. I will ask him personally!"
Li Lingrui said coldly: "In addition, put together all the information about this operation. I want to see it!"
Although he had already heard the intelligence chief briefly describe the battle last night, Li Lingrui wanted to know more details.
