Li Mu nodded, shook his head again, and frowned slightly: "It is true that we sent someone to investigate, but we are new here, and we dare not really inquire about too many things."
"This Yinzhou was originally adjacent to Wu'an Prefecture. Xia Houjing will definitely put spies in this Yinzhou, and the number of spies should not be small. I am afraid that we will not pay attention when we are inquiring about the news, and we will be exposed at that time. It’s not worth the loss, so I just inquired about it at will, not too deep.”
Yun Chang nodded: "You are right to think so. Your main purpose this time is to get close to An Yong Zhuang, try to sneak into An Yong Zhuang, and take a look at the situation over there. There is no need to show your trace in Yinzhou."
Seeing that Yunshang did not blame, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and reported one by one: "We didn't find out much information, but just heard that Mr. Wang and the others are now fighting against the rebels in the north of Wu'an City. During this time, the rebels We have fought three times with our army of the Xia Kingdom, and we have almost lost all of them."
"I guess, Mr. Wang probably felt that winning these few battles was too easy and too strange, so in the past month, he didn't start a war rashly, and he didn't attack the city any further."
Yun Chang rubbed her fingers secretly without making a sound.
"Start three games and win all three games?"
"Yes." Li Mu nodded.
"That is indeed a bit strange."
Not to mention anything else, Xia Houjing probably had already planned for a long time and prepared a lot of things for the incident in Wu'an Prefecture.
But they were not. Although they were guarding against Ganhe County and Anyongzhuang, Xia Houjing could still come here alive, and they quickly organized an uprising was beyond their expectation.
Therefore, they had not done much preparation before.
But even in this situation, it is indeed a bit strange that they can still win three games.
"We also found out that during the recent period, Xia Houjing's side has been making frequent moves, and it seems that he has plans to start another war."
Yunshang's fingers moved slightly. After a month, is the war going to start again
Xia Houjing lost three times in a row, how dare he take the initiative to attack
Yun Chang frowned, and tapped her fingers lightly on the table: "How long was the interval between the previous three battles?"
"The last three games?" These are things that have already happened and are well known, so it is easy to inquire: "The interval is about half a month to a month or so."
Yunshang paused slightly with her fingers, and would fight a battle every half a month to a month or so, and lose three times.
It doesn't feel like a war, it's more like...
Yun Shang frowned, more like a temptation, and more like a delay.
test...
procrastination.
Yun Chang pursed her lips, if so, it would make sense.
Why did Xia Houjing prepare for so long and was well prepared, but lost three games in a row to them
It's not that he deliberately left room, but that Wu'an Zhongxing probably doesn't have that many soldiers at all.
The other people, most likely, were transferred away by Xia Houjing to do other things.
Do something else
Yun Chang pursed her lips, what did she go to do
It's just that this is just Yun Shang's conjecture. Although Wang Jinhuan usually has a temper, but he has followed Luo Qingyan for so long, but he has his own ideas on major issues. I'm afraid he has already guessed this one. .
However, there is another possibility, that is, the situation in the previous few battles was caused by Xia Houjing's deliberate appearance to lure them to attack the city.
As a general of an army, Wang Jinhuan was burdened with the lives and deaths of thousands of soldiers, so naturally he didn't dare to gamble with the lives of the soldiers.
It would be fine if the bet wins, but if the bet loses.
Yun Chang bit her lip, no matter what Wang Jinhuan thought, since she already had this conjecture, she should try to prove her conjecture, and send someone to tell Wang Jinhuan after getting enough evidence to support it.
Yun Shang tapped lightly on the table: "What else? Is there any other news?"
Li Mu thought for a while: "By the way, there is another one. There were rumors before that the rebels were planning to attack this Yinzhou in the next step. Therefore, many people with status, wealth and power in Yinzhou City panicked. Most of them took their wealth and left Yinzhou to seek refuge. I... "
Li Mu coughed lightly: "I thought, most of these wealthy and powerful families have their own news network, and the news they get should not come from the wind, just... quietly take advantage of the chaos The more favored concubines of those families who fled to inquire about news."
"The woman said that the news about their master was obtained from a wealthy businessman surnamed Zhou. She said that the wealthy businessman surnamed Zhou had a cousin who was Xia Houjing..."
Li Mu paused, then looked up at Yunshang: "It's Xia Houjing's wife."
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes: "Xia Houjing's wife?"
"yes."
Yun Shang hadn't heard of this person for some time, Xia Houjing's wife was Hua Yutong.
"Mr.Zhou?"
"It's Zhou."
Yun Chang frowned and thought about it, but she really couldn't remember what Hua Yutong's mother's name was.
"How dare that rich businessman surnamed Zhou spread the word? Is it possible that he is not afraid of being heard and reported to the court and arrested if he is found out?"
"I'm afraid that the rich businessman surnamed Zhou didn't intend to spread it everywhere. It was just that he accidentally said it when he was drunk. The speaker had no intention of listening to it. It's just that the surname Zhou also has some roots in Yinzhou City. Most of the big families in a city are inextricably linked. Those who heard those words were famous people. Only when the scope spread, did this come out.”
Li Mu pursed his lips: "It's just that after I thought about it, if the rich businessman surnamed Zhou had such a relationship with Xia Houjing, I might not be able to listen to what he said."
Yun Shang nodded: "Okay, I know about this."
Then Li Mu said hastily: "Others, the last general really doesn't know. We have only been in Yinzhou for a few days, and most of the time we have been arranging the affairs of An Yongzhuang, and we have too many scruples, it is really nothing Opportunity to inquire about news."
Yun Shang responded: "Okay, I understand, I don't blame you. You don't have to come and say goodbye to me when you leave tomorrow. This trip..."
Yun Shang paused, lowered her eyes slightly: "This trip is dangerous, be careful."
After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth: "You are the water army that His Majesty spent a lot of time preparing to resist the attack from the sea, so you can't just stay inland like this."
"No." Li Mu smiled, and cupped his hands towards Yunshang: "Then the general will resign first."
