Chapter 258 Orphans from Other Countries
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Nuobao blinked and looked at Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi.
The two immediately understood what he meant, clapped their hands, and were about to tell Qingxuan an important piece of information.
It goes without saying that the large-scale attack by Pibei must have been planned for a long time.
And coincidentally, the so-called Bocheng fishermen who had been in contact with Qingquan Village before were also disguised as Pibei people.
It is obvious that there must be a close relationship between the two.
Fortunately, Jiang Fengze and his men had already noticed it and had sent people to keep a close eye on Qingquan Village. In the past few days, Lu has arrested several fake fishermen.
Just waiting for the final blow to close the net.
Jiang Fengze explained quickly, and then told Qingxuan, "We've been keeping an eye on Qingquan Village for a long time, and we found that not only Zheng there, but also several villagers from the same village, have dealings with the fake fisherman. I'm afraid there are big problems with these people."
Xiao Lanyi folded her arms and nodded, adding, "But we were worried about alerting the enemy, so we didn't touch the people from Qingquan Village. We just used some excuses to arrest several fake fishermen in the Liaodong Camp, and asked the government for help. They ordered restrictions on the fishermen in the city to prevent them from joining forces to cause trouble."
Qingxuan was slightly surprised to learn that such a thing had happened in Yuncheng, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"If the people of the Sibei Kingdom pretended to be fishermen on purpose, I'm afraid they are not ordinary Sibei citizens, but are undoubtedly Sibei Kingdom's spies!"
"Thanks to you for discovering it early and restricting their travel, no matter what their purpose is, they will definitely not be able to implement it."
In fact, Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi had previously speculated that they were spies.
However, it was not until the incident in Changbai City that they learned about the Sibei Kingdom's wolfish ambitions and were able to confirm it.
Qingxuan felt that this was good news.
At present, they knew very little about Sibei. If they could pry open the mouths of these spies, it would definitely help the battle.
So Qingxuan asked Jiang Fengze to ask the Liaodong Camp in Yuncheng to help search for the remaining Sibei spies.
"The spies are well-trained and keep their mouths shut. Since there are so many of them, we will torture them one by one, using both soft and hard methods. There will definitely be one or two who will speak up." Qing Xuan said with a bow.
He also hurriedly assured, "If we can get your help this time, it will be extremely important for the war situation in Changbai City. In the future, I will report to the Duke and ask him to recommend you for credit!"
Even if this matter is not mentioned, Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi will also help.
Moreover, it was originally in their plan to thoroughly investigate the matter that was being dragged out in Qingquan Village.
As for whether to recommend credit or not, they didn't care much. As a member of the Liaodong Camp, if they didn't even do such a small thing for the people, they didn't deserve to hold the sword anymore.
After everyone decided on this matter, Qingxuan hurriedly mounted his horse and went to Changbai City to wait for the meeting with the Imperial Master.
It would take at least a day to get from Yuncheng to Changbai City.
Feng took two white flour buns and put them in Qingxuan's arms. She also helped him fill up the water bag, and the whole family watched him leave.
Little Nuobao was thinking about the Imperial Master. After returning to the kang, he stuck out his little butt and lay on the pillow. No matter what he said, he could not be happy.
It was the first time that sadness appeared on her soft little face. Even she herself could not explain the reason, and the whole family did not dare to disturb her.
Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi could not afford to stay at home any longer, so they rushed to Qingquan Village and ordered a thorough roundup, taking away the suspect and several other villagers for questioning! There
was a war in the north, which was a huge shock to the people.
Seeing that the matter had not spread yet, the Jiang family did not want to say anything to increase panic, after all, the farmers were about to harvest in autumn, and they could not stand being frightened.
So Feng thought about it again and again, and only told the village chief and Old Li. She was not looking for a casual chat, but wanted the village chief to remind the villagers not to wander around recently.
After all, the world is not peaceful anymore.
These elderly uncles knew the seriousness of the matter. Although they were shocked, they quickly calmed down and would not spread the news.
As for why the Qingquan Village official colluded with the Beibei secret agents, this matter has always been a mystery to the Jiang family.
"Qingquan Village got rich early, more than 30 years ago, and somehow Zheng suddenly wanted to do the cloth weaving business, which made the whole village rich." Feng sat on the edge of the kang and muttered, "We lived a stable life, how could they hook up with those foreign thieves, and I don't know what they are after."
Jiang Fengnian leaned against the door and thought, "Logically, they shouldn't be obsessed with money, but what else can they do besides that?"
Not only the Jiang family couldn't figure it out, but no one in Dalui Village could figure it out. The village chief and the others who had informed in advance were waiting for Fengze to send back the news from Liaodongying.
Since the net was closed, Zheng and the fake fishermen in Qingquan Village were still stubborn and refused to confess.
It was not until Xiao Lanyi consulted her grandmother, who was born in a military family, and learned several tortures such as frying in oil and branding with iron that the head of Qingquan Village and several villagers finally confessed after being beaten to death. After
learning the truth, Jiang Fengze was shocked and even his back went cold.
When he brought the news back to the village, the village chief jumped up first and almost broke the cigarette lighter in his hand.
"What did you say? The head of Qingquan Village is not from our Nanji country, but that bastard from the Northern Country?!" The village chief stared in disbelief.
Jiang Fengze tightened his lips, frowned, and said in a deep voice, "He's not the only one. There are several older villagers in Qingquan Village who are just like him. They are all orphans left behind from the last bloody battle between the pirates and us decades ago!"
