Lu Heng said: "Da Zhou has just ended the war, and he has no intention of invading the north at all. Utkin Khan did this because he just wanted to take the opportunity to expand his territory. When I was with Utkinhan before, he once said in his words. revealed that."
Qin Yining nodded in agreement, "Utkin Khan is indeed very ambitious."
Now that the situation has become clear, it is obvious why Siqin killed Anari. She and Lu Heng are just taking the blame for Siqin.
Therefore, since Siqin was preparing for the war to mobilize the food and grass, they had to cut off the food and grass.
For one thing, they made up for the lack of food and grass.
Second, are they bringing so many clansmen for sightseeing? How can I pass up the chance to stab Utkin Khan
The three points are also the most important points in Qin Yining's mind. According to her observation, the Tartars are not very rich. A nomadic nation, the food and grass are not as rich as the previous Dayan Dynasty. If they cut off their food and grass, it is very likely that It will delay the pace of the war and reduce some pressure on Pang Xiao.
Qin Yining doesn't need anyone in the capital, as long as he calms down and analyzes a little, he will know that once the war starts, no matter the north or the south, Li Qitian will definitely let Pang Xiao go out, because Li Qitian doesn't trust Pang Xiao now and will never hand over the security of Gyeonggi to him. to protect.
And once Li Qitian wanted to murder Pang Xiao, and Pang Xiao was outside, Li Qitian would be able to shirk his responsibility better.
Thinking of this, Pang Xiao was in crisis everywhere. Qin Yining wished that he could not immediately fly back to the capital with two wings.
It's a pity that she can only make a little effort to advance to the border now.
When everyone's discussion was in full swing, Qin Yining seemed a little absent-minded. Seeing her frowning, Lu Heng was able to guess what she was thinking, and his heart was filled with a bit of sourness.
Even if Pang Xiao did not protect her well, even if he was the one who went through hardships with her, Qin Yining would always only have Pang Xiao in his heart, and could not see anyone else. Lu Heng envied Pang Xiao's good fortune, to be able to get such an excellent woman to treat him wholeheartedly, and sighed for his infatuation, I am afraid that he will not be able to reciprocate in this life.
After deliberation, everyone finally decided that the food and grass must be grabbed.
With food and grass, they can find a way to pick up the clansmen one after another, and they can find a safe place to start a new life.
Because of the food and grass, everyone was very motivated. Uncle Arhan led the scouts to spy twice, roughly guessing the path of the food and grass, and then everyone gathered in one place to discuss the best ambush location.
On the day of the operation, Lu Heng and Qin Yining were both left in the camp. Uncle Arhan and Harbala led more than 500 clansmen to move, while Chaganbala stayed with the rest of the clan to support them at any time.
The battle went on for a whole day. The next day, Uncle Arhan successfully escorted the food and forage back. Because Qin Yining and Lu Heng's plans were perfect, only one person was killed and three people were injured in this action. They not only robbed the food and grass, but also The escorted army will also be wiped out.
This is already a rare miracle.
Uncle Arhan gained a new level of understanding of Qin Yining and Lu Heng's ingenuity. His admiration and admiration for them were indescribable. For a time, all the clansmen knew that Qin Yining and Lu Heng were two extremely good military advisors. Unparalleled, there are no omissions, as long as they listen to their arrangements, their actions will definitely win the victory at the least cost.
After getting the food and grass, Qin Yining and Lu Heng discussed the route. Instead of staying in place, they rushed to a valley that they had bypassed when they came overnight. Taking advantage of the heavy snow that would cover their tracks, they perfectly avoided Siqin. Arranged scouts.
At the same time, the news of the interception of food and grass quickly reached Si Qin's ears.
"What? The whole army was wiped out? Ben Khan arranged for more than a hundred elites, and each of them could fight ten against one another. How could they be wiped out so easily! Who did it?"
The general who replied, his face was ashen, his face turned pale again when Siqin shouted, and he knelt down and gave a big salute: "Khan calms down, it's the ministers who are incompetent. Now the road is blocked by heavy snow, the situation outside is very bad, the ministers wait... I don't know. Who did it? When I arranged for someone to investigate, only the corpses of the warriors were left in the camp, and the fodder, horses and weapons were gone."
"Flying away?" Siqin's voice almost came out of his teeth, but he pursed his lips, still able to perfectly control his emotions and expressions, and said slowly: "Is there really a god watching? Are you not used to the power of my Tatars and do not want us to take revenge for Anari Khan, so such a farce would happen?"
"No, no! Khan, don't think like this, it's useless to wait for the ministers, and let the thieves take advantage of the loopholes. How can there be any gods who don't protect this?"
"Yeah Khan, this lost food and forage, there must be traces, the minister and the others immediately ordered people to closely track it down, and the whereabouts of the food and forage will definitely be traced! We must not let our food disappear out of thin air!"
Only then did Siqin nodded and said, "In this way, Ben Khan is relieved. Ben Khan also believes that we are a country under the protection of the gods, and also believes that no one will use the magic method to silently take away the food. of."
When they came out of the palace, the ministers were blown by the cold wind, only to find that their backs were soaked with cold sweat, and when the wind blew, they felt cold all over.
Utkin Khan is really a mighty khan, he doesn't need to get angry, just a few words, it is more frightening than the anger of the previous Anari Khan.
Just now, Utkin Khan obviously did not have a violent rage, but they all trembled from the depths of their souls. This is called the real majesty of the emperor.
—
Pang Xiao also got the flying pigeon biography here.
The Tartar food and grass were intercepted and disappeared. Now Siqin's people are tracking the whereabouts of the food and grass, and the date of the war may be postponed.
When Pang Xiao saw it, his heart shook. Although there is no evidence or evidence, and he did not see it with his own eyes, Pang Xiao still decided that the matter of food and grass must be related to Qin Yining.
Siqin is very good at being a man. After he ascended the throne, he not only treated courtiers well, but also exempted the people from taxes, and improved the lives of many slaves. Now the entire Tatar people are respecting Utkin Khan as a benevolent monarch.
Therefore, the cohesion of the Tatars has reached an unprecedented height in the past fifty years or so.
The Tartars wanted to avenge the Anari Khan and wanted to start a war. I believed that no one would be tempted to rob the food and grass. I also believed that Siqin would arrange for the elites to transport it, and the idle bandits would not be able to snatch the food and grass.
Therefore, Pang Xiao concluded that the matter of food and forage must be a planned and premeditated behavior.
And Qin Yining was the most motivated to do so. Because doing so can relieve Da Zhou's pressure, it is more equal to relieving his pressure. Pang Xiao never doubted Qin Yining's intelligence and ability. He just knew that she was still alive, which had made him happy for several days. Now that she still has the energy to do such a big event, Pang Xiao was really surprised.
Pang Xiao quietly went to Qin Huaiyuan.
Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard the news, "This girl, I was thinking about how hard she had been outside, but who would have the ability to rob other people's food and grass, at least I don't have to worry about it now. She can't get enough to eat outside."
Pang Xiao also laughed, but after laughing, he became a little worried: "If I guess wrong, it's not Sister Yi who did it. She might still starve. The Tartar side is colder than the capital, so it's better to My sister was born in the south, and I'm really afraid that she won't fit in."
Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing at Pang Xiao's worries when he heard the words.
"Don't worry, I can be sure that it was indeed done by Sister Yi. I received news from the Cao family from the Tatar border today. Although it is impossible to confirm that Sister Yi and Lu Heng killed Anari Khan, but They have left Dadu with the Tatar Minoans and are now being hunted by Siqin."
"The Mino tribe? It used to be one of the most powerful tribes in the Tatars. However, it is said that they were severely persecuted by Anari Khan, and there are not many young adults left in the tribe."
"Yes, it is this tribe, no regime is an iron bucket, and it is not without loopholes. Now Utkin Khan is so pleasing to the people of the Tartars, it is using the former Anari Khan. Those bad things he committed to set off his present kindness."
Pang Xiao was silent for a while when he heard the words.
Thinking about such a method as Siqin is terrifying.
Siqin has been calculating since the day he approached Anari, and even when he helped Anari seize power, he has paved the way for his future self. Such a sinister and meticulous mind makes people shudder.
Pang Xiao couldn't help thinking of himself.
The person next to him is also very smart and resourceful, but he will not harm him, only help him. Even when he is in danger, he has not forgotten to take someone to snatch Siqin's food and grass for him. This is to reduce the pressure, not to mention the help she helped when the Earth Dragon turned over the hardest hit area.
Pang Xiao's body and mind seemed to be soaked in honey.
However, the more this is the case, the more unscrupulous the thoughts of eroding bones invade in the blood. If possible, Pang Xiaoduo hoped that Qin Yining would stay by his side safely. It doesn't matter if she can't help him, as long as she can accompany him safely and safely.
"Siqin is so cunning, and Sister Yi's situation in Tartar is now very dangerous." Pang Xiao frowned worriedly, "If I could, I would have gone to Tartar myself and brought her back."
Qin Huaiyuan patted Pang Xiao's shoulder soothingly, and said, "Don't be too anxious, things haven't gotten to that point yet. Sister Yi is now with the Minuo Department, although we don't know the details. I know, but one thing is certain, Sister Yi is safe for the time being. Now our relationship with Tartar is tense. If you act rashly, if you are charged with treason, it is not a joke. Don't forget, you Your life and death is not just about yourself."
Pang Xiao smiled helplessly.
Just because he knew that he still had responsibilities that he couldn't shirk, he had no choice but to wait for news here. Otherwise, he would have been unable to hold back and rushed directly to Tatar.
When Weng and his son-in-law were worried about Qin Yining, Qin Yining hugged Cao Yuqing very happily.
"Aunt Cao! You're all right! That's great!"
