Tan Zhen cupped his hands and said, "Master Gao is far-sighted and strategizing. Tan Zhen has mastered the tricks of the trade. I would like to ask for your advice, Master Gao."

Zhao Yin on one side licked his beard, slapped the table, shook the fat on his face, and said with saliva flying: "Hit the mother, beat the mother, and send the princess out. I don't believe it."

, I have one hundred thousand elite troops in the military department, but they can’t even beat him pulling a cart?”

"Attack Chuzhou first. A hundred thousand troops are pressing down on the border. The city wall of Chuzhou is only three feet long. The ten siege vehicles I have brought are four feet long. We will surely capture the city of Chuzhou in less than three to five days.

"

Zhou Kezhi, who was on the opposite side, cut off a piece of mutton and said, "If it is true as Mr. Tan said, then Fang La brought the princess to Chuzhou during the siege, what should we do?"

"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhao Yin glanced at the thin man opposite him, but he felt a little disdainful in his heart. This week Kezhi was thin and used the lightest ring knife. It couldn't have any impact on the battlefield, but this

There is one thing about the boy that he admires very much, everything

They would always leave a back-up, just in case. The Ministry of War used troops several times, and several times they relied on Zhou Kezhi's back-up to turn defeat into victory. Zhou Kezhi was also suppressed by the minister of the Ministry of War. After Zhan Bibai became the minister,

The group of people who were originally suppressed were all carried up.

Zhou Kezhi took two random sips, took a sip of wine and said: "If you ask me, just stand still and wait for the Secretary Xingfang to get anxious. We have surrounded Chuzhou City. We opened our pockets and waited for them to come to rescue us. As soon as we entered the pockets

, let’s tie up tight and come to catch the turtle in his urn, the city of Chuzhou is just around the corner.”

"What you said is a good idea, but Fang La has already proclaimed himself emperor. If you want to quell the disaster before the autumn harvest, your method will not work at all. Let's not talk about how much supplies there are in Chuzhou City. Just say that behind Chuzhou City is Jinling and the three prefectures.

The grain, grass and wax can be used at any time, even if we cut off the grain

"How long will it take to besieged? Not to mention that there are still three prefectures and eighteen states. By the time Square La is conquered, the children in my mother-in-law's belly will all be calling daddy." Zheng Liaomin next to him had the best relationship with Zhou Kezhi, and he spoke the most mercilessly.

Zhou Kezhi said that he couldn't take a breath and almost choked to death.

"Haha..." Gao Qiu couldn't help but smile, but shook his head.

"Sir, what do you mean..."

Gao Qiu suppressed his smile and returned to a serious expression. He felt like thousands of horses were galloping in his heart: "What I mean, do you dare to do whatever I tell you to do?"

But he said: "What you all said makes sense, but now the Ningshan Prefecture's army is stationed in Xuzhou, and they need to coordinate their operations. Should they unite together to attack Chuzhou, or split up and attack Luzhou? Secondly, they must wait for the scouts.

At least you need to know the news

The current situation of the princess, whether she has been captured and where she is trapped. Only by grasping these two points can we decide the next step and send people to Luzhou to find out the situation. I want to see the news within ten days.

On the tenth, Jinling's scouts should be back."

Tan Zhen thought to himself: "Gao Qiu, if you don't know how to fight, why would you still set up the Dragon Gate Formation here? Go rescue the princess, I think you are going to..."

Tan Zhen suddenly didn't dare to think about it. How could he, a small third-rank Jingzhao governor, dare to decide on such a thing? Could it be...

Forcibly suppressing his thoughts, after Tan Zhen left the tent, he quickly wrote two letters and asked his confidants to rush them to Luoyang six hundred miles away.

"If this is really the case, Ningshan Mansion, General Ning, you can just..." Tan Zhen squinted his eyes and looked at the dark clouds entrenched in the sky. He wanted to get out of this muddy water, but now it seems that he has already

It's too late. This move, after all, is the foresight of the people above. Even in the worst outcome, it can maximize its benefits.

Tan Zhen suddenly felt that the court he had longed for turned out to be like this. It was better to return to Fujian and become a general.

At this moment, the scouts sent by Gao Qiu have also completed their assembly outside Jinling City.

"How much is left?" In a courtyard three miles north of Jinling City, a middle-aged man looked around at the seven people in the room.

This man's name is Zhang Xiu. He has a high nose, red eyes, dark skin and dry backs of hands, which prove that he has been on the road all year round. He has a short knife on his right hand and is wearing rough hemp clothes, showing his strong muscles.

It doesn't fit his name very well.

There were only five people in the room including him, and those sitting there were all team captains, all experienced veterans. Half a day had passed since the agreed time. At noon, Zhang Xiu summoned several captains for a meeting. Those who did not come were probably

Fell on the road.

It was more than 800 miles from Qingzhou Camp to Jinling, passing through the three states in the middle, all of which were captured by Fang La. They also carried swords and guns. Although they pretended to be Jianghu people, they would inevitably be interrogated. Once the secret was revealed, if they were lucky enough to escape,

, they went directly back to the camp. If they couldn't leave, they could only choose to die together. There would be no third possibility, because from the moment they entered the military camp, they had already put life and death aside.

Scouts serve in the army. The so-called scouts refer to distance, and Hou, originally a meter for roads, with five miles as a boundary. Since the pre-Qin period, scouts were officials in the army, and their responsibilities were specifically responsible for

Inspecting dangers and protective facilities everywhere, waiting to catch thieves. In the Qin and Han Dynasties, this duty was abolished and

Spies became scouts, and scouts completely became a "shady" group. Generally, these people had some special skills, such as climbing mountains, walking on beams, etc. After the Tang Dynasty, the group of scouts gradually weakened, especially in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Central Plains

There was a melee, and the scouts went out for a year or two, but when they came back, the country was gone.

After the Xia Dynasty unified the world, scouts gradually emerged in the army. Especially in recent decades, Yeluji led three hundred warriors to rebel against the Turks and establish the Yuan Dynasty. Conquests between the two countries continued, and the invasion of the border areas became more and more serious.

Frequently, the Tiance Army, the Huben Army, the Ministry of War, etc. all have their own scouts. Unless it is absolutely necessary, they cannot reveal their identity. Once their identity is revealed, it is basically a dead end.

As for the scouts of the Great Xia Dynasty, in addition to their duties of reconnaissance and infiltration in the army, they are also responsible for collecting intelligence on major officials. Even Xia Yongkang has not been idle. He has been resting for ten years and has done something.

He came from the Jing'an Division to collect intelligence all over the country and could know the world's affairs without leaving home. Otherwise, how could he know so clearly about Jiang Ning's affairs and know that Jiang Ning's reputation was not in vain.

Zhang Xiu added: "Everyone knows the mission of this trip. There is no need to say more. Finally, let's confirm the goal." As he said this, he took out a piece of sheepskin from his sleeve, spread it out and looked at it. It was wrapped with a portrait.

The woman in the portrait is clearly Princess Lu Yutong of Changping.

"This person has a hidden identity. She may be a princess, princess, madam, etc. However, this person is a great obstacle to this expedition. He may have mastered the great secrets of the court. If he is outside, he will be killed. If he is

Catch, it means that he has probably surrendered to the enemy, and he must try his best to kill him, do you understand me?" Zhang Xiu repeated the mission he received and confirmed it for the last time.

The remaining four team captains raised their hands and said: "Understood."

"The risk of this assassination is extremely high. You must be fully prepared. If you have a wife, children, or a mother at home, withdraw now. I can determine that your mission has failed and return the way you came." Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, although

Those who come to serve as scouts are usually without worries, but the possibility of marriage cannot be ruled out.

Zhang Xiu has been on the road of scouting for ten years. Ever since he climbed out of the dead in the Battle of Blackwater, he has been in the Ministry of War. Now he can be regarded as a sixth-rank official, but he lingered in the Goulan brothel.
