After receiving the order, Xue Wuxia was on high alert in Zhaoyang City.
Wang Zuo’s idea was very simple.
Or, find out Mao Xiang's specific mission;
Or, kill Mao Xiang.
Anyway, both countries are in a state of war, and it is normal for you to kill me and I to kill you, so it would be best if you can get intelligence, but if you can't, just kill them.
As for the two disappeared Jinyiwei Tongzhi, if they want to get something, they will always show up. Let’s talk about it after they show up.
Of course, no intelligence agent with normal intelligence would think that the Jinyiwei was making such a fuss just for the Qinghe Army's defense map.
To get a defense map, either send a few capable Jinyiwei to steal it, or send a few elite scouts to investigate from the periphery. In fact, they can get a general idea of it. After all, the border between the two countries is so wide, and the fortress defense system that stretches for dozens of kilometers cannot be heavily guarded in every place.
So Wang Zuo told Xue Wuxia: Mao Xiang himself is a big fish. Since he wants to use himself as bait, it would be a waste if we don't eat the bait. As for the clue, don't worry about it being broken.
Chen Chao used such expensive bait, so they must be seeking something even more valuable. What did Qinghe have that made them both aware of its existence and its value?
Obviously, the two most valuable parts of Qinghe are: Qinghe Industrial Zone and Linhai.
The Qinghe Industrial Zone is heavily defended, and destroying it can severely undermine Qinghe's war potential.
But the industrial zone covers a vast area and has many guards. Most importantly, Mao Xiang lacks the ability to destroy such a large area of factories at one time. Even if he is placed in the industrial zone, he will be like a dog biting a turtle and having nowhere to bite.
It is really difficult to ask someone who doesn't understand industry to find out several key nodes in the industrial zone.
What's more, Qinghe has more than one industrial zone. Even if Mao Xiang really suddenly comprehended some magical skills and could knock down a building with a slap, he could only cause trouble to one industrial zone, but he could not really affect Qinghe's armament production.
Then there is only one possibility left.
Lin Hai, the founding emperor of Qinghe, the principal of all civil and military officials, the spiritual and actual leader of Qinghe, the commander-in-chief of Qinghe's armed forces...
Having so many titles hanging on a person's head makes that head look very delicious and mouth-watering.
If something happened to Lin Hai, with no offspring, the entire Qinghe region would inevitably be thrown into chaos. Even if civil war didn't ultimately lead to it, external wars would certainly be impossible, and the Chen Dynasty would benefit greatly from this process.
"The other party must be coming for the principal."
Wang Zuo said in a decisive tone.
In response, Xue Wuxia laid a tight net.
She didn't even have any idea of pretending to be nice to Mao Xiang. She ambushed heavy troops at the gate of Zhaoyang City and even buried dozens of kilograms of explosives. As long as Mao Xiang entered the city, the moment he entered the city, she could send him downstairs to prepare for his loyal emperor.
There is no need to be afraid even if the ambush at the city gate is discovered.
More than a thousand elite Qinghe soldiers were lying in ambush on both sides of the official road outside the city. If Mao Xiang found something wrong and didn't dare to enter the city, they would send out a large army to defeat him.
One thousand to thirteen, and you ask me how I lost?
As for the possibility that a falling out might lead to Tang Tong's betrayal being exposed?
Let it be exposed. Tang Tong is far less valuable than Mao Xiang.
Besides, it didn't take long for the military supervisor to discover the trick after arriving in Zhaoyang.
The fighting on the front line was extremely fierce, but the number of people who went out was always the same as the number who came back. Occasionally, there were a few wounded who looked more like they had fallen while climbing a mountain rather than being injured by swords and knives. He had long been suspicious.
Xue Wuxia, who had been serving him as a maid, stabbed him through the gap between the fifth ribs the moment he became suspicious.
Anyway, we have kept it a secret for so long, so we have not lost anything. Even if we keep it a secret even better now, the main force of the Chen Dynasty will soon arrive.
Therefore, Xue Wuxia was not worried about being exposed.
"Sir, Zhaoyang City is just ahead."
A Jinyiwei said to Mao Xiang.
"Have the people who went to investigate returned?"
"It's time to come back. I guess it will be soon."
"Tell him to come find me when he comes back, and the rest of you can rest here."
"Yes, sir."
The Jinyiwei took out the dry food and squeezed it. It was indeed a bit hard. Although they didn't know why Mao Xiang was unwilling to enter the city ten miles outside the city, they still had to eat.
He gathered up a lot of dry grass and branches, preparing to light a fire to roast the dry biscuits he brought with him.
"Bang!"
A large foot overturned his firewood pile before he could even light it.
The Jinyiwei stood up angrily, wanting to see which bastard dared to treat him like this.
Then he saw Mao Xiang's calm face.
"Greetings, sir."
He quickly bowed.
"It's okay. I just want to tell you not to light a fire. The fire and smoke will expose us."
Mao Xiang said indifferently.
"grown ups."
Jinyiwei was a little confused. He hesitated for a moment and said:
"We're still in the country, and so close to Zhaoyang City, so starting a fire shouldn't be a problem, right? Besides, we're about to enter the city, so it'll be even harder to hide our whereabouts."
"you're right."
Mao Xiang nodded.
"Then why does your Excellency..."
The Jinyiwei was even more puzzled.
"Oh, because I have no intention of entering the city."
Mao Xiang said lightly, I have a feeling that the situation is under my control.
