Fat Party Xiangren's writing style is quite good, the ins and outs of the story are clearly described, and the elements that Su Jin is concerned about are also listed one by one. 8 9 Reading Network
The truth is not much different from what Su Jin and others guessed. It is just that the details are more detailed and the means of doing things are slightly different, but in general they do not deviate too far.
There are seven party members in this group. Their name is Tuoba Gong. He is a supervisor of the Youxiang Chaoshun Military Department, one of the twelve military supervisors of Xixia. He is under the Tongjun and the Deputy Tongjun.
The third person is of a very high level.
Among the Twelve Supervisory Army Divisions, this person was singled out to lead the team because he was proficient in the culture, language, and martial arts of the Song Dynasty; while the remaining six were party soldiers selected from the garrison guarding Xingqing Prefecture.
, the man who committed suicide in Su Jin's house was called
As a 'Xifengye', the one who was kicked to death by Xiao Temo is called 'Xianglizhu', the tough guy who was escorted off by Su Jin just now is called 'Tuoba Feng', and the one who wrote the confession is called 'Ye Cishi'
, the other two people each have a name, and they are both the surnames of party members.
The confession stated that there were frequent exchanges between Liao and Xixia envoys. More than 20 days ago, Yuan Hao learned about the Liao envoy's future negotiations with the Song Dynasty, and the Liao's troop movements at Nanjing Road and Xijing Road were also reported back by Tanma
Let Li Yuanhao know.
Li Yuanhao was originally in the quagmire of war with the Song Dynasty. The northwest army of the Song Army followed the defensive strategy of Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi and built cities and forts. Yuan Hao's several attacks were repelled by the Song army and he suffered losses.
It's no small matter, and the generals and tribal leaders under his command also complained a lot.
When he was in a dilemma, learning this information allowed Li Yuanhao to see a glimmer of light in the dark night.
Yuan Hao had always hoped to bring the Liao State into trouble, but although he was related by marriage to the Liao State, how could this relationship affect the interests of other countries? Several requests for coordinated operations were rejected by the Liao State. Yuan Hao became angry and deliberately planned to attack Xia in Xia Dynasty.
Several troubles were also caused on the Liao border; for example, they took in the traitorous Blackwater tribe of the Liao Kingdom and allowed them to carry out vindictive harassment in the Liao Kingdom, etc., which added more bad blood between the two countries.
Although envoys Guan Gai were coming and going, everything seemed normal, but Yuan Hao knew that it was almost impossible for him to want Liao Kingdom to stand on the same boat as him.
But now, the Liao State had assembled troops and horses on the border of the Song State and sent envoys to the Song State to deliver letters of credence. As soon as these two contradictory things came to mind, Yuan Hao felt something fishy.
Li Yuanhao quickly convened the ministers and tribal leaders to discuss. Finally, Zhang Yuan, a Han aide under his account, came up with a plan. He suggested that he immediately send people to disguise themselves as Song people and sneak into Bianliang, where they would wait for the Liao envoys to arrive and look for opportunities in Bianliang.
Liang Cheng assassinated the Liao envoy and left evidence directly pointing to the Song Dynasty, thus completely rupturing the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty.
Zhang Yuan analyzed that given the temperament of the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers, even though they knew that the Liao people were here to blackmail this time, they would definitely agree to their unreasonable demands. In Zhang Yuan's view, the Liao Dynasty just wanted to increase the Song's annual gifts of coins and gifts.
He could make some money from silk, but he never expected that this time the Liao people would open their mouths and put forward the four conditions that challenged the bottom line of the Song Dynasty.
Zhang Yuan's suggestion was approved by Li Yuanhao, so Li Yuanhao immediately organized people and formed a death squad to sneak into Bianliang City. Since the secret could not be leaked, when selecting people, the main focus was on the elements of proficiency in the Mandarin and customs of the Song people.
Martial arts can only make do with it.
In order to control these death squads and force them to complete the mission no matter what, without leaking the news, Li Yuanhao ordered people to detain all the children of these seven people, promising that if they could complete the mission, they would be released to the children, and at the same time, they would be given high-ranking officials.
They received gold and silver treasures and also warned them that if they failed to complete the task or were captured and rebelled, their parents, wives, children, brothers and sisters would all be beheaded.
Not only that, the suspicious and cruel Li Yuanhao also ordered the palace pharmacist to take slow poisonous pills and force the seven people to take them. They were promised three months to die. If someone escaped from the battle regardless of their family's life, then this
You will definitely not be able to get the antidote to the poison, and you will definitely die from the poison in three months.
The seven people did not have time to grow their hair to cover their bald spots, so Tuoba Gong slaughtered several Han people at the border, cut off their long hair and scalps and dried them to make wigs. The seven people came here under the alias of merchants doing business.
Bianliang.
After several days of adapting and inquiring, the seven people knew about it as soon as the Liao envoy Xiao Temo's men entered the city. On the night when the Liao envoy checked into Guanyi, Tuoba Gong originally planned to kill several of the Guanyi's men and go out for shopping.
Or the Song servants who were serving him, and then wore their clothes and sneaked in to assassinate him. Unexpectedly, Xiao Temo drove out all the Song cooks, horsemen and other servants in the post as if with divine help; even the post soldiers also
Not one was left, which made Tuoba Gong extremely depressed.
Fortunately, Tuoba Gong was also a brave and resourceful person. The method of sneaking in would not work, and the size and bravery of the Liao envoys were not suitable for the seven dead men who were not very skilled in martial arts to assassinate them by force. Tuoba Gong chose
Another way is to poison the Liao envoy.
Tuoba Gong ordered his men to dress up as vendors selling cooked food and walk back and forth in front of the post. The smell of braised meat and barbecue naturally attracted the attention of the Liao soldiers patrolling and standing guard around the post. As expected, they stepped forward and left to rush to buy.
Ba Gong hid in the dark and thought he had a plan, but unexpectedly the next scene made him depressed again; the Liao soldiers took the meat and were not in a hurry to eat it, but a Liao soldier who looked like a small leader actually took out a piece of silver needle
The block was tested to see if it was poisonous. After finding out that it was not poisonous, everyone started wolfing it down while yelling.
If he hadn't known that this operation was a top-secret matter, Tuoba Gong would have suspected that someone had tipped him off and that these Liao people were too careful. This was something unprecedented.
Of course Tuoba Gong didn't understand. Xiao Temo himself felt that the conditions proposed by the emperor this time were too harsh. Although what he ultimately wanted was far from the conditions that these lions wanted, under such circumstances, who could guarantee it?
People in Song Dynasty didn’t use Yin moves?
So Xiao Temo adopted Liu Liufu's advice and be more careful when eating and drinking. The cooks and grooms of the Song Dynasty were not used. As for if the Song Dynasty people got angry and sent troops to kill them directly, that was a different matter; it was going to rain.
If you want to get married, you can't even guard against that kind of thing.
Xiao Temo was not afraid of death. No matter how stupid the Song Dynasty people were, they would not kill him. What he was most afraid of was that the Song Dynasty people would use some despicable means to make his life worse than death. He looked fine, but when he returned home, he would suffer from stomachache and intestines.
That means there is nowhere to complain.
Tuoba Gong was so depressed that he almost slapped himself in the mouth, but fortunately he was careful enough to be on the safe side. This time he was just testing it out. No poison was put into the meat, so although he did not succeed, it was not considered a failure.
As long as it's not noticed, there's still a chance.
When the envoys from Song and Liao met on the next day, Tuoba Gong and his brothers witnessed it at the entrance of the alley across the street. What made him puzzled was that at almost noon, several bloody people were carried out of the post.
When the people came out, did the envoys from the two countries get into a fight inside because of a disagreement?
Tuoba Gong was excited for a while. If the Song people had directly killed the Liao envoys, wouldn't he and others be able to retreat without a fight? But the next four envoys actually went out and boarded the carriage to Fan while laughing and talking.
They went to the restaurant for dinner, which made Tuoba Gong completely dizzy.
Fortunately, the news soon spread throughout the streets and alleys. It was said that the special envoy of the Song Dynasty actually competed with the envoy of the Liao Dynasty in the pavilion and made huge bets all morning. As a result, the envoy of the Liao Dynasty lost so much that he almost lost his pants. It is said that he lost
After all the cash, I still owe more than 10,000 taels of silver.
Tuoba Gong was a little confused. What the hell was going on? Didn't the envoys of the two countries want to negotiate? How could they gamble before meeting? What's the rule?
Confused, Tuoba Gong quickly brought his men back to the inn to discuss, but Xi Fengye was insightful. His analysis was clear and logical: "Master Tuoba, think about it, the people of Liao are now penniless and owe a lot of debt.
How to solve the food and drink problem of Hao people? Since the envoys of the Song Dynasty won all their money, they must have wanted to teach them some lessons. They will not be provided with food at all in the past few days. Let us just follow suit and add fuel to the fire, even if the envoys of the Liao Dynasty
He still had some money to save his life, but he also taught them that they could not buy food and starved them for a few days. At that time, they would just pick up hot meat and pretend to be wine and meat sent by the envoys of the Song Dynasty and walk around the entrance of the post house.
Will the Liao soldiers, who are like mad dogs, still test me with silver needles one by one?"
Tuoba Gong slapped his thigh and said, "It's a good strategy, but it may not kill the Liao envoy Xiao Temo. Besides, how can we make them hungry for a few days? Won't they come out and buy some cheap goods to satisfy their hunger?
"
Xi Fengye said: "It's enough to kill the Liao soldiers. As long as a few Liao soldiers die, and we pretend to be the people sent by the envoys of the Song Dynasty to deliver food, we will put the blame on ourselves. The Liao people will naturally think that they will die."
They are soldiers, but the target is the Liao envoy, which is enough to arouse their anger; as for how to make them hungry for a few days, the villain has thought about it. What these merchants and taverns in the Song Dynasty fear most is the government, so let’s pretend to be the government first
The government officials go and intimidate them. It doesn't matter if there are one or two who break the rules. We go and smash them up at night, and the next day all the custodians will become grandsons."
Tuoba Gong laughed loudly and said: "This is a very clever plan. I didn't expect you to be really talented and know the people of Song Dynasty very well."
Xi Fengye said: "The villain's wife is Han, and she was robbed by the villain, so she told the villain everything."
Tuoba Gong couldn't stop praising him, and after careful preparation with everyone else, he stole the clothes of the government officials and even forged official documents. Only then did seven or eight officials go around saying hello under the banner of the government.
…
After reading the confession, Su Jin couldn't laugh or cry. What kind of fucking plan was this? Li Yuanhao's plan was quite vicious, but it was just put into the hands of so many people to implement it. It was like a bright pearl was cast into darkness. How could such an assassination be possible?
If such a twists and turns are needed, all it takes is two men with excellent archery skills to take advantage of Xiao Temo and others to go out at close range and kill them, and then wipe their necks and be done with it.
If you want to assassinate, you also need to find someone capable to do the killing; for fear of exposing your traces, you have to look for the appearance of these incompetent people who are well versed in the scenery of the Song Dynasty but have little martial arts to plot the plan.
Speaking of which, they were still frightened by themselves. Bianliang City had never banned Xixia people from entering, but the interrogation was more stringent. As long as the belongings on them were not eye-catching, they would not be allowed to enter Bianliang City.
Bows and arrows were easily available; fortunately they were stupid, otherwise if Xiao Temo was really killed, the trouble would be big.
And now, I'm afraid it's Li Yuanhao who's in trouble.
