Chapter 949: The rearguard of the imperial court

Views:

This wave of random arrows attacked the White Lotus Religion bandits by surprise. Coupled with Sun Shaozong's leading charge, the battle came to an end almost in an instant.

By the time Feng Xin and Zhang Cong got out of the car, the dozen or so Jurchens who followed Sun Shaozong had already started cleaning the battlefield.

"grown ups!"

Feng Xin happily handed over to the report: "This bandit leader, nicknamed Zhang Xiucai, seems to have some status in the White Lotus Sect! Cai is on his way..."

"How did you know we were taking him out of town?"

Without waiting for Feng Xin to finish speaking, Zhang Xiucai stared blankly at Sun Shaozong and asked, "Even Feng Xin didn't even know our plan from beginning to end!"

Now he naturally understands that Feng Xinfang is just taking his plans.

After You Qiao left the city, Feng Xin held up the curtain and seemed to be in a daze. In fact, he was observing the sides of the road to see if there were signs, so as to wait for an opportunity to lead the Bailian rebels into the ambush.

But this time, taking Feng Xin as an opportunity, only a few people knew about the plan to provoke disputes between the two countries, even within the White Lotus Sect.

And Feng Xin himself only learned about it on the road.

Then why did Sun Shaozong lie in ambush outside the city early

Is it because there are spies by his side, or... This legendary three-eyed god, does he really have the ability to predict the future

"It's just a simple inference."

Sun Shaozong leaned on Frostmourne and said indifferently: "You risk being discovered and invite Feng Xin outside, there are only two options, one is to give him a certain mission and let him return to the to the embassy."

"The other is to take him away and make a fuss about him - and for the latter, there are three possibilities: hide him in the city; kill him and put the blame on the Jurchen; take him out of the city and deal with it separately ."

"Considering that once Feng Xin disappears, Jurchen will definitely find out your teacher Bai Lian in order to clear the suspicion, and this officer is quite famous in investigating cases, so the probability of the first two possibilities is extremely low."

"That is to say, after Feng Xin goes out to make an appointment, the most likely thing to happen is to return to the inn with a mission, and the second is to be taken out of the city by you."

Having said this, Sun Shaozong spread his hands: "After confirming these two points, it should be a logical approach to set up an ambush on the only road outside the city?"

Zhang Cong was silent.

Indeed, after Sun Shaozong's analysis, it seemed that it was not difficult for him and others to take Feng Xin out of the city in advance.

in this case…

The biggest problem really is Feng Xin!

Zhang Cong turned his gaze to Feng Xin subconsciously, and sighed: "I thought that Feng Xiangzhu would be more cautious for the life of the whole family, but I didn't think so, but I still showed his tricks."

Feng Xin was stunned for a while before he understood what he meant. Obviously, he didn't believe that he would risk his life to actively expose his connection with the White Lotus Sect.

Feng Xin's old face suddenly swelled up like a pig's liver. He grabbed it and slapped Zhang Cong's mouth, blood dripping from the corners of Zhang Cong's mouth. To this day, you still dare to falsely accuse Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu was born as a member of the court, and died as a ghost of the court! Just you clowns who want to coerce Lao Tzu to be a rebel?! I bah!"

He spat righteously on his face, but the more impassioned he was, the more he seemed to be told.

In fact, a few days ago, although he was very entangled in his heart, he never thought of telling Xu Furen and Sun Shaozong about it.

However, when Sun Shaozong took the initiative to come to the door that day and reminded him to pay attention to the infiltration of the White Lotus Sect, Feng Xin couldn't help showing some strangeness because he had a ghost in his heart.

If it was someone else, maybe they might not be able to see the flaws.

But what kind of eyesight does Sun Shaozong have

He was most familiar with Feng Xin, but [except for a few wives and concubines at home, Feng Xin can be said to be the person he has spent the longest time with since he crossed], and now he slammed a few words, followed by a straightforward question.

Feng Xin was already in awe of him, but when he asked this question, he naturally couldn't bear it any longer, and made a happy gesture as if he was pouring beans in a bamboo tube.

The book is back to normal.

However, after successfully capturing Zhang Cong and others, Sun Shaozong did not lead the team back to Jianzhou City.

In the evening, several guards from the mission also quietly came out of the city, and together with Feng Xin, they escorted two white lotus sect bandits who had handed in the 'voting papers' to Xingcheng.

After they arrived in Xingcheng, the cheap brother would follow Sun Shaozong's instructions in the letter, pretending to be in a big fight, and take his troops out of the city to train.

The two white lotus sect bandits who surrendered will follow Zhang Cong's original plan to contact the followers of Xingcheng, falsely claiming that Feng Xin has completely surrendered to the white lotus sect and must protect his family members in the capital and move to the northwest in time. transfer.

If it goes well, the imperial court can follow this line and wipe out the White Lotus Sect forces outside the capital and the customs.

On the other hand, Sun Shaozong escorted Zhang Cong back to the city, and while continuing to question the inside story of the White Lotus Sect, he used the excuse of the White Lotus Sect to try to provoke the relationship between the two parties, and tried to force Hou Jin to hand over Vice-Cult Master Xue and others.

In fact, from the mouths of the white lotus rebels who had surrendered, he had already learned about the location of the White Lotus Sect in the city. He did this just to force Jin and the White Lotus Sect to break completely.

Originally, according to Sun Shaozong and Xu Furen's inference, in order to gain a strategic respite, Jurchen would most likely choose to abandon the car and protect the coach.

Although the Jurchen would not take the initiative to betray the White Lotus Sect, since the White Lotus Sect was caught by the tail and did try to destroy the peace talks between the two sides, it was no wonder that they were disrespectful.

The initial development was indeed similar to what the two had speculated.

Although for more than ten days, the Jurchens were arguing and arguing, saying that they had never had any contact with the White Lotus Sect, and even denied that there was a leader of the White Lotus Sect in the city.

But in private, Sun Shaozong heard from A Lin Qitu that Vice Cult Master Xue and others had been detained, and they were only waiting to be exchanged with Da Zhou as a bargaining chip at the right time.

To this end, Xu Furen and Sun Shaozong also deliberated for a while, to see what the benefits would be without cost, and they could make empty promises to the Jurchens.

Who would have thought that on the fourth day of the second lunar month, Jurchen's attitude suddenly changed drastically. First, his tone of voice became inexplicably tough, and then even for several days, he refused to call Xu Furen into the inner city to discuss matters.

Even Alin Qitu, who has always been close to Sun Shaozong, has been without news for more than ten days.

Could it be that Feng Xin has gone wrong again

Xingcheng's soldiers and horses turned the fake into reality, and really attacked the Jurchen tribe

But shouldn't it? !

For the sake of safety, the officers and soldiers accompanying him had already received orders from Sun Shaozong, and would not obey Feng Xin's orders, and even had to be wary of them.

Therefore, even if Feng Xin's matter is imminent and repeated, it is impossible to do this deceitful deed.

So where did the variable come from

Sun Shaozong and Xu Furen made all kinds of speculations in the post house, but they couldn't get the point. Forced by the situation, they even made the worst plan: if something went wrong, they would directly cut a bloody path from this Jianzhou city.

Fortunately, on February 13th, Jurchen finally revealed the answer: the main force of Dazhou's Southeast Fleet just destroyed the pirate lair in Kyushu, Japan a month ago.

From the bandit chief Su Cheng, Chen Erhu, and Maeda Boguang, nearly a thousand people were killed on the spot, more than two thousand were captured, and countless people fled.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, the Southeast Fleet, with the might of a great victory, entered Haikou, Inju, North Korea, and killed most of the captured pirates, and beheaded their heads to build the Jingguan, which made the wind and trees in North Korea shudder.

A few days later, with the coordination of the pro-China Leading Party, a purge of North Korean officials was officially launched.

At the same time, the Southeast Fleet separated some troops and small ships, and took over the defense command of the Yalu River from the Korean state.

Fourth of February.

After the news spread into Jianzhou City, Jin Junchen was silent for a while.
