Chapter 425: Catching a Sneaky Person



Magistrate Tong glanced at his advisor's back, turned around and looked at the thousands of soldiers digging traps, and sighed deeply.

I have to say, when there are more people, the speed is fast.

Seeing a long road, five thousand elite soldiers came together, digging a path with their shovels, and they dug it out very quickly.

Prefect Tong frowned and looked towards Pinghe City.

I just hope the God Army can move slower and his family can move faster...

.........

"General Long, I've captured a spy!"

Lin Changshou grabbed the dirty spy and pressed him in front of Lin Yiran.

When he brought the Lin family army out in the morning to pave the road, he discovered someone acting suspiciously in the distance.

There were many refugees seeking refuge on the road at that time, and he thought that the refugees were just timid, which was why they were so cautious.

Now that I think about it, those people who have been wandering around the official road must be spies sent by Shiquan City.

Just as the Heavenly God Army stopped to rest, he caught this man.

"This person has been secretly watching the Heavenly God Army. It's obvious that he is not a good person!"

Lin Changshou glared at the spy and scolded him angrily.

Lin Yiran curled the corners of her lips and glanced indifferently at the spy kneeling in front of her.

Looking at the spy's wandering eyes, she knew that Lin Changshou had caught the right person.

Dressed in tattered clothes, he really looks like a refugee.

But the spy had a pair of lively eyes, which the tired refugees did not have.

"From Shiquan City?"

Lin Yiran thought about it and vaguely remembered that the Shiquan City prefect's surname was Tong.

"Is Magistrate Tong also ready to surrender directly?"

When she passed through several cities and bought things for free, Shiquan City was the richest.

So she had some impression that any county magistrate's office in Shiquan City was much richer than Magistrate Li's.

It can be seen that there is really no honest official in Shiquan City.

"......." The spy pursed his lips, lowered his eyelids and said nothing.

"Speak, are you mute?!" Lin Changshou got angry when he saw the spy like this.

How dare you ignore your master? Can't you see what your current status is?

What about the self-awareness of prisoners?

Lin Changshou twisted the spy's arm and pushed it down.

"Ah~" The spy's body tilted downwards, and he screamed in pain with his teeth grimacing.

Xiao Yunzhan, who was patrolling among the soldiers, heard the movement from Lin Yiran's side and frowned and looked over.

Seeing Lin Yiran's calm expression, he paused and didn't go over.

This little thing can be handled by Ranran.

Lin Yiran glanced at Xiao Yunzhan who was looking at her from a distance, then lowered her eyelids and looked at the spy who was howling in front of her.

The spy's eyes flickered slightly, and he grumbled out a sentence that he himself did not quite believe.

"Zhong---General Zhongwu led an army of 500,000 to garrison Shiquan City."

"With 500,000 troops suppressing the rebels, you—you have no chance of winning..."

The spy was extremely panicked when he thought of the endless Tianshen Army on the official road.

Who said that the God's Army was just a mob of refugees?

Look at how neatly he is wearing his military uniform. He doesn't look like a refugee at all.

The only person who looked like a refugee here was himself.

"Ha!" Lin Yiran laughed out loud after hearing what the spy said.

"The Daliang Kingdom claims to have a million troops, but the maximum they can actually mobilize is probably 500,000."

"Why, the army sent by the tyrant emperor to the south to suppress the rebellion is a ghost."

The million-strong army only includes the soldiers defending each city, it's just a gimmick.

As for Emperor Wu of Liang sending an army of 500,000 to suppress the Heavenly God Army, that is even more impossible.

Emperor Wu of Liang could not ignore the rebellion in the south, nor could he recall the soldiers from the border.

Where did the 500,000-strong army come from?

The spy moved his lips twice; he also felt that what Lin Yiran said made sense.

When he heard the news from his companions, he was also full of doubts.

An army of 500,000 suddenly arrived in Shiquan City. What did they eat and drink?

When he left Shiquan City, he did not see any food or water being transported to Shiquan City.

It is also possible that food, water and the army arrived at Shiquan City at the same time.

"Anyway---it's an army of 500,000..."

The spy frowned and insisted that it was an army of 500,000.

"What 500,000 troops!?" Xiao Yunzhan, who had taken a tour and strolled to Lin Yiran's side, just happened to hear the spy's words.

Lin Yiran looked up at Xiao Yunzhan and raised her eyebrows.

"He said that the tyrant emperor sent General Zhongwu to lead an army of 500,000 to suppress us."

Zhao Cheng was making such a big fuss in the south, and Emperor Wu of Liang valued the south so much, how could he not send troops to suppress it?

"......" Xiao Yunzhan paused for a moment, then pulled the corners of his lips and laughed dryly.

"He is not qualified to lead such a large army."

If it is General Bai, then this is possible.

"Who is General Zhongwu?" Lin Yiran frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't remember who this person was.

"Dong Wenfeng."

When Xiao Yunzhan mentioned the three words "Dong Wenfeng", he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He remembered that in the capital, Ranran shot an arrow at Dong Wenfeng's horse, which directly knocked Dong Wenfeng unconscious.

He hadn't heard from Dong Wenfeng for so long that he thought he had fallen to his death.
