Chapter 484: Preliminary Plan
Liu Qingfei ignored the other party's questions and when he heard that Aji was on the carriage, he rushed in without saying a word.
Aji was originally asleep and vaguely heard the noise outside, so he was half asleep and half awake. Liu Qingfei's actions woke him up.
It was not enough to know that Aji Hai was not in full emotion at this time. He made a sound unconsciously, which made Liu Qingfei stunned on the spot.
Fortunately, the sound was very low and the people outside had no intention of listening, so they didn't hear it. The other party didn't get a response from Liu Qingfei and wanted to leave in boredom.
"You..." After seeing the person, Aji narrowed his eyes and just after he uttered a word, he realized something.
Then Aji suddenly covered his mouth.
This action also made Liu Qingfei understand that he had not heard wrongly, Aji really could speak.
But……
Liu Qingfei's mind was in a mess for a moment, but when he heard the soldier outside whispering in dissatisfaction, Liu Qingfei didn't think and immediately rushed over to cover Aji's mouth.
At that moment, Aji was panicked and thought that the other party wanted to silence him.
But Liu Qingfei was really nice to Aji when he went to Japan. Aji was not Tiemu, so he naturally noticed it.
So the raised hand slowly fell down.
Fortunately, Liu Qingfei did not make any other moves afterwards, and Aji was quietly covered by the other party.
"What happened?"
The carriage had just shaken due to Liu Qingfei's violent movement, and the soldiers stopped and asked.
Liu Qingfei replied anxiously: "Nothing, I just tripped."
"Be careful." The soldier said casually, "Do you need my help?"
"No, no need." Liu Qingfei said.
The soldier paused, then realized that he was asking for trouble, and this time he walked away completely.
Liu Qingfei let go of Aji only after the others had left for a long time.
"Can you speak?" Liu Qingfei asked.
But Aji didn't understand, so he could only blink and shake his head.
"Can you still hear?" Liu Qingfei's shock continued to increase exponentially.
But Aji still only has those two simple moves.
"I heard everything. You just said clearly..." Liu Qingfei stopped here.
"You are not one of us." Liu Qingfei recalled that the words Aji had just said were unfamiliar to him.
But it also sounded a little familiar. If Liu Qingfei remembered correctly, that was the pronunciation he heard from the captured foreigners.
Liu Qingfei was in great trouble now. He looked at Aji with eyes full of struggle.
Aji didn't understand what was going on, but since he was still being held down by Liu Qingfei, he moved.
Because of his actions, Liu Qingfei stepped back a little and only then noticed the scars on Aji's body.
"Was this done by Miss Qin?" Liu Qingfei couldn't help but wonder.
But if it was really Qin Xiangnuan who hit him, Liu Qingfei also felt it was understandable.
Aji didn't understand what he said and looked at him for a few seconds without saying anything.
The Aji at this time is no longer the same one as before. The previous one was sent here to be a spy, but the current one was brought back by Qin Xiangnuan and has no other identity.
Aji considered himself to be Qin Xiangnuan's person, and his mentality was different when facing Liu Qingfei, but Aji didn't know whether Qin Xiangnuan was willing to let others know that he was a foreigner.
After all, the relationship between Fanbang and them was hostile.
Aji didn't say anything, and Liu Qingfei was helpless with him. He wanted to find Qin Xiangnuan, but was afraid that Aji would be hurt again, so the two of them were deadlocked here.
Qin Xiangnuan didn't understand the twists and turns between the two of them, so after handing the carriage to someone else, she went to find Jiang Lin.
While looking for an escape route in the foreign camp, Qin Xiangnuan saw a few familiar people from afar.
"Are you talking about the official's cousin?" Qin Guang raised his eyebrows.
Qin Xiangnuan said, "Before I left the border, I saw him at the official's home. After that, the official stopped taking care of the matter. I suspected something was wrong at the time, but I didn't think about it too much and didn't think it would happen so soon."
"This is not your fault." Jiang Lin patted Qin Xiangnuan's shoulder and asked her to slowly raise her drooping head.
"Yes, Nuannuan." Qin Guang also said, "They have been plotting for a long time. Even if we are prepared, what happened next will still happen, the people will still be displaced, and that official will still do nothing."
Qin Xiangnuan listened to their words, put away her thoughts, and cheered up to tell them about the follow-up matters.
The past cannot be changed or recovered, but they can still prevent it through hard work in the future.
Jiang Lin asked Qin Xiangnuan, "Is the other party with King Cheng?"
"Yes." Qin Xiangnuan said, "I now suspect that the official's cousin has been staying in the other party's tent for the past few months and has never left."
This possibility is relatively high, and Jiang Lin and Qin Guang both agree with it.
"It seems that this cousin must have a lot of weight in front of the Ninth Prince." Qin Guang said.
"I want to go see the officials." Qin Xiangnuan said with narrowed eyes.
Qin Guang frowned. "Nuannuan, you've been there before, but it didn't work. Is there any point in going again now? I don't think this official would dare to confront his cousin."
Jiang Lin also nodded. "No need to go over there. No matter who the enemy is, we must fight this battle and we will definitely win."
Although Qin Xiangnuan still wanted to win over the official, she also understood that there should be no things that could distract Jiang Lin and Qin Guang at the moment, so this matter had to be put aside for later.
"I set a fire over there today, and deliberately directed the fire to their granary. I think their military morale would be somewhat weakened by now." Qin Xiangnuan talked about what happened today.
Qin Guang applauded after hearing this, "This way, the situation is even more advantageous for us."
"However..." Qin Guang remained somewhat calm, "We cannot tell our soldiers about this matter, lest they think victory is certain. Such a military morale is also wrong."
Qin Xiangnuan nodded to show that she understood.
"Have you decided on the day to take action?" Qin Xiangnuan asked.
Jiang Lin and Qin Guang looked at each other, and then Jiang Lin pointed his finger at one place.
Qin Xiangnuan looked over and then raised her eyebrows, "So fast? But that's good, it will be more reassuring if it's resolved sooner."
"We have gained an advantage in this battle. We will certainly force the foreign invaders to retreat several kilometers in the early stages. However, fighting a war will cost lives and property, and we cannot predict how long the enemy can resist."
Jiang Lin knew very well that it would take a long time to truly get rid of the foreigners, perhaps as short as a few months or as long as one or two years.
But this time Jiang Lin will intensify the offensive, leaving the foreign people no time to recuperate and forcing them to retreat step by step.
Qin Xiangnuan understood and said to Jiang Lin, "Leave all the supplies in the rear to me."
