Chapter 307 Behind 1
But now it seems that it is not the time for him to explain. First, there are too many people around him watching, and second, I want to send Han Qing back immediately, so I said to Dong Qing indifferently: "Go back first, come find me tomorrow night!"
Dong Qing quickly agreed.
And I, Jing'er, and Jian Rufeng, took Han Qing back.
Han Zhengxu has his own house in Tonggu City, and usually he lives in the house at night, and of course Han Qing lives here! Fortunately, he came last night when he welcomed me, so he barely knew the road to come tonight, so he would not get lost. However, I only remember the way I came back last night, and when I came back last night, we also strolled around. There was no way. In order not to lose myself, I had to take them back according to the way I last night.
After a few turns, we finally arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, and Han Zhengxu was waiting at the door.
We quickly dismounted, then quickly met and said, "General Han, I'm really sorry, because Deng was so playful that he delayed Miss Han's return!"
But Han Zhengxu seemed not unhappy about Han Qing's late return, but laughed and said, "I'm very relieved to be with you. I'm here to wait for you!" Then he bowed slightly and said, "Please inside!"
I had something to ask him tonight, but the most important thing was that I wanted to ask about this information. He probably wanted to ask about some things about me outside today, and these seemingly two things are actually one thing.
After entering the general's mansion, he asked Han Qing to take Jing'er to her boudoir, and I was taken to the study by him, Jian Rufeng was waiting outside.
The study room is very ordinary, and there are basically no expensive decorations. The only feature is that there is a large map behind the desk. Since the lights in the study room are bright from time to time, I don’t see the words on it very clearly. However, from the images marked above, I can tell that it is a picture near Tonggu Pass. At the same time, there is a large model in another corner of the study room. To be precise, it should be a sand table. There is also a map hanging on the wall next to the sand table.
After entering the study, he pointed to a chair in front of the desk and said, "Please sit!" Then he sat opposite the desk. After the servant brought the tea, he asked, "You have been outside the pass for a day today. I wonder if you have found anything?"
I waved my hand and said, "If you want me to answer this question, I have to ask you a question first. What's going on with the group of horse thieves outside the pass? Why didn't they mention it in the information given to me!"
"Horse thief?"
He was slightly stunned, then suddenly realized and said with a smile: "You are talking about the Wind Thieves!"
Wind Thieves? Is it the name of those horse thieves?
Although I had questions in my heart, I didn't ask because he would tell me.
Sure enough, after pondering for a while, he said: "According to our news, this group of horse thieves is the wind thief. There are about 500 people. They are a group of robbers wandering around the country of Dayue. They specialize in robbing Dayue and going to the Holy City to do business! Since Dayue and many grasslands are grasslands, there is no fixed road to the Holy City, and the robbers are riding good horses, and they always come like the wind and go without shadow. After each crime, they are extremely cruel and basically leave no living. Although Dayue and the country have sent troops to encircle and suppress the situation many times, they have not known their hiding place, and the location of their crimes is not accurate. So to this day, they have not wiped out these habitual bandits."
"Then why didn't there be any mention in the information given to me?" I asked again.
He raised two fingers and said, "Two reasons. First, this Fengtao did not commit crimes in my Great Zhou Dynasty, so we think there is no need to report to the higher authorities. Naturally, there will be no information in the information given to you!"
"Second..." When he said this, his expression was a little serious, and he said, "According to our analysis, this group of robbers could never be ordinary robbers. The horses they rode were all top-notch good horses, and even the cavalry of the Dayue Kingdom could be escaped by them when they were chasing them. For one of the habitual bandits who mainly robbed merchants, they could not have such a good horse. Even if they had the money to buy horses, if it was in Dayue Kingdom or in my Dazhou Kingdom, so many horses would be paid attention to. Now we are in front of us.
There is no news about their purchase of horses in the Great Zhou or Great Yue Kingdom. At the same time, it is their weapons. The weapons of the cavalry of Great Yue Kingdom can be considered high-quality, and can be compared with the swords equipped by our soldiers, but this kind of weapons is at a disadvantage when fighting with the group of horse thieves! So it is obvious that these weapons are specially made. How could a horse thief have such a good weapon? Moreover, they show that they are a well-trained army in their actions!”
I couldn't help but nodded, and I was also very questioning when he talked about this. It is rare to see thieves who can arm 500 people better than the army now. And it is even more impossible to do so without others discovering it!
Han Zhengxu took out a stack of information from the desk and handed it to me, saying, "This is all the information we have collected about Fengtao, you can take a look at it yourself!"
I took it over. This stack of paper is quite thin, which shows that the court is still concerned about wind thieves, but with the mentality of sweeping away the snow in front of the door and not caring about others' frost, the court did not intend to hand over these information to the Dayue Kingdom. Of course, it is even more impossible to send troops to help the Dayue Kingdom eliminate these thieves.
After slowly turning a few pages, I found that the information was too detailed, not only detailed records of the locations, equipment, etc. of the Wind Thieves. It made me feel as if there were spies from the Great Zhou among the Wind Thieves.
So I raised my head and asked, "Are you too concerned about the gang of robbers in Dayue Kingdom?" Then I couldn't help but shook the paper in my hand and said, "I guess there is no comprehensive information in Dayue Kingdom!"
He looked serious and said, "The biggest reason here is that we suspect that these wind thieves should be soldiers from neighboring countries next to Dayue Kingdom. The weapons they used were the same as those we used, so we suspected that they were people who pretended to be our Dazhou! The purpose is self-evident! At the same time, the two factions of Dayue Kingdom are now undisputed. One of the reasons is that these thieves were mistaken for being people from Dazhou Kingdom! You should not know the sinister intentions of it!"
"The fisherman's benefit!"
I said lightly, "It is obvious that they are adding fuel to the increasingly severe border forms of the Great Zhou and Great Yue countries! It is not just about looking at each other's fight, and they are trying to reap the benefits!"
"No," Han Zhengxu nodded and said, "Come with me!" After that, he took the lead and walked towards the sand table, while I was holding a candle behind me.
After entering, he took the candle with one hand, and pointed to the picture with the other hand and said, "Look, next to this Dayue Kingdom is Xilun, which is what we usually call it Xilun Kingdom. Xilun Kingdom also borders my Dayue Kingdom. Since the horses that I Dayue Kingdom are not as physically and endurance as Xilun Kingdom, every year Dayue will buy horses from them. Similarly, Xilun Kingdom also produces iron tools in addition to horses. Since my Dayue Kingdom does not sell iron tools to Dayue Kingdom, but Dayue Kingdom does not produce iron ore, Dayue will also buy a large amount of iron tools from Xilun every year. However, after the new king of Dayue boarded the plane, he vigorously developed troops, which made Xilun, who had very few troops, feared that one day, the Dayue Kingdom, who was known as the Iron Blood King, would destroy them!"
I looked at the map of the Three Kingdoms and continued, "It is for this reason that the Xilun Kingdom came up with such a trick to frame the people of my Great Zhou?"
"Yes!" Han Zhengxu nodded and continued, "And there is another point, that is, their actions are like soldiers, which cannot be concealed. Also, this also gives the Great Yue Kingdom a message, these robbers must be my Great Zhou army!"
I also understood the intention of the Xilun Kingdom. They sent troops to pretend to be thieves and used weapons as standard weapons used by the soldiers of the Great Zhou. Moreover, many of the horses of the Great Zhou were bought by the Xilun Kingdom. No one doubted the horses they rode. With these robbers and the radical factions of the Great Yue Kingdom, the Great Zhou and the Great Yue Kingdom are likely to break out in war. Once the two countries take action, there is a great demand for both horses and weapons, so they can also make money by making money. The so-called battle between the two tigers will inevitably lead to one injury. Once the Great Zhou and Great Yue battle, no matter which country wins, the national strength of the two countries will be weakened. Even if the Great Yue is willing to attack the Xilun Kingdom, they are powerless. In this way, the Xilun will be temporarily safe.
In a certain aspect, this is also a way for a small country to protect itself. It is sandwiched between two big countries, living like a grandson, and making a lot of money from others. Maybe the emperor of this country would be unhappy that day and sent troops to destroy him.
At the same time, this is also a kind of sorrow. In this world, the truth is always in the victor's side. As long as you win, even if it is an invasion, it can be beautified into a good deed. And for the weak, no matter how reasonable you are, you will eventually be sent to the military court by others for various reasons.
However, I think that if a country wants to survive, it does not have to rely on conspiracy. Even if their goal is achieved this time, will they still have this opportunity next time? And they only consider their own people, or more consider their imperial power, but not the people of Dazhou and Dayue. Or, for them, it is best if the people of Dayue Kingdom and Dazhou die! I can be considered as people of Dazhou now, so I hate them very much for their practice!
