Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 686 Shi Le invasion?

What was written in the military information is that Zhixiong and Kui'an, the two Shile generals, had already defeated the refugee coalition forces in the north of Changshan County after joining forces, and then separated a team and came to the northeast of Changshan County The Ministry lined up at the junction of Dai County, Changshan County, and Zhongshan County, and then sent someone to send a letter asking Chen Zhi to hand over Sun Xiu and others.

"Didn't Sun Xiu mention it a few days ago?"

Looking at the military summary in his hand, Chen Zhi looked at Su Liao.

"This Sun Xiu is indeed moving north," Su Liao responded immediately, "It's just that this person's whereabouts were erratic, and there was another Jie army chasing him, so our spies discovered it at the beginning. It’s hard to keep up with him after he’s traced, otherwise he’ll be exposed. Whether he’s come to Dai County or not, we can’t be sure for the time being.”

At the end of the sentence, he looked ashamed again, and he felt particularly depressed.

As the establishment of secret agents became more and more perfect, the manpower gradually increased, but more and more problems were exposed, especially in the recent period, when there was any news, he, Su Liao, felt that he might be dereliction of duty. However, it cannot be made up for in a short while.

"In this borderland, things have changed a lot. The secret agents have just started, so it is inevitable that there will be some shortcomings. You don't have to blame yourself all the time. If something goes wrong, just solve it." Chen Zhi saw what was going on in Su Liao's mind. Feeling ashamed, he comforted him for a few words, and then said: "However, this Xiong and Kui'an are so sure that Sun Xiu has come to Daijun? Since he is going north and is King Zhao's staff, the best choice is undoubtedly Go to Wang Jun and ask for reinforcements!"

"Yes, but I'm afraid Wang Jun won't send troops at this time." Su Liao nodded, and then changed the subject, "Right now, Shi Le's two groups of troops have defeated the refugee armies of Zhongshan County and Changshan County respectively, and forced them to After expelling Grand Administrator Zu Ti, and including their territory in Zhao State, they now own nearly three counties, which is almost a quarter of Jizhou. I am afraid that they will be in a lot of trouble in the future."

Chen Zhi nodded and said: "The expansion is too fast all of a sudden, and there are no suitable managers under him, and they have no status. It's like building a house on quicksand, and there is no stability at all. This Shi Le is really in a hurry. .”

Su Liao followed up and said, "I really don't know why Shi Le did what he did, and even sent people to shout at the border of the county. He is a foreign bandit. , is a true rebel, but he dares to be so arrogant, I simply don’t know how to write the word “death”.

"I wonder what Sun Xiu did to force Shi Le to act like this," Chen Zhi glanced at the information in his hand, "Shi Le crossed Youzhou and acted directly in Jizhou, with Jingxing as his back and the Huns supporting him. , plus the imperial court has no time to take care of it, so if you endure it for a while, you will be able to accomplish something, but now you are so eager to jump to the front desk and attract the attention of all parties. "

Su Liao then asked: "How should we respond to their clamor?"

Chen Zhi narrowed his eyes, and his eyes flickered coldly: "How to respond? I have never met Sun Xiu, how can I hand it over? Having said that, if Sun Xiu is really in my hands, he is The king's aides are people in the imperial court system, and Shi Le is a subject of the Huns, and they invaded across borders, wantonly occupying the country, and wantonly killing you and my fellow clansmen. If I don't attack such a person, I will restrain myself. Should I hand this person over to him? I can’t afford to lose this person!”

Hearing this, Su Liao already understood what Chen Zhi meant, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, the prefect. When the subordinates go back, they will mobilize manpower to find Sun Xiu and the others as soon as possible."

"Do I remember that this Sun Xiu is from the Five Pecks of Rice Sect?" Chen Zhi asked seemingly casually.Su Liao replied: "Yes, but the Five Dou Rice Sect has become more and more divided over the years. After the eunuch mentioned it last time, I went back and sorted out the situation of the Five Dou Rice Sect in the North, and found that Sun Xiu was probably inherited from The branch of the Five Pecks of Rice called the Silk Family Tao is spread among many families in the North, and many families cooperate in Tan Xuan and take the Five Stone Powder to learn this Tao."

"Bo Family Way?" Chen Zhi nodded, "I understand, find this Sun Xiu as soon as possible without handing him over, but if it is really on our territory, we can't be unaware of it."

"My subordinates understand!"

After saying these words, Su Liao took Tong Hai, said goodbye to Chen Zhi, quickly left the Yamen, boarded the carriage, and drove all the way.

In the car, Tong Hai couldn't help but ask: "Sima, did you really leave those Zhixiong and Kui'an soldiers and horses alone? It is said that they have no less than three thousand soldiers and horses on the border! Although Dai County is not afraid, but the soldiers and horses in the south are The county and villages cannot bear the impact of such individuals!"

Su Liao glanced at him and said seriously: "Tong Hai, you are talented. Let's take a closer look at these things. Can Shile send 3000 people? I think it will be difficult. Didn't the prefect just say that they are expanding?" It's too fast, I want to eat a fat man in one breath, it won't work anywhere, it will hurt my body."

"But..." Tong Hai suddenly thought of something, "If Sun Xiu was just passing by Dai County and wanted to ask Wang Jun for help, and the latter agreed, wouldn't he have an excuse to intervene in Jizhou and finally surround our Dai County?" After getting in touch with intelligence work, Tong Hai naturally discovered that his own power did not deal with his immediate superiors. It was just that no one could do anything about anyone, so they maintained a temporary peace.

"The prefect hopes that Wang Jun will intervene!" Su Liao laughed, "Shi Le can have indigestion, and so can Wang Jun. He has lost troops and lost his prestige. He is cultivating and accumulating strength. If he suddenly interferes with Jizhou, let alone the imperial court To be wary of him, we don’t know how many troops we need to invest in. Jizhou is a quagmire. Although Shi Le has a temporary advantage, he is already deeply trapped in it. Now Shi Le, if others don’t attack him , that’s good enough. If he wants to provoke our Daijun, he will undoubtedly dig his own grave. The soldiers and horses of Daijun are not comparable to the refugee army. Even the refugee army can only be defeated but cannot be annihilated. In the future, there will be Shi Le has a headache, not to mention the fact that the court wants to appease King Zhao..."

As they talked, the two carriages arrived at the Secret Spy Yamen.

Of course, a normal prefect's yamen would not arrange a department such as secret spies. Therefore, the secret spy yamen was actually opened with the title of Chen Zhizheng's Northern General, while Su Liao was in charge of it with the title of Sima accompanying the army.

This place is not far from the county governor's office. The large areas of land and houses around it have been bought by Chen Zhi and will be built one by one in the future.

When they arrived at the place, Su Liao stopped talking and got off the carriage.

As soon as he walked into the Yamen, there were hurried footsteps in front of him, and two slightly panicked officials rushed over. Before they could stand still, they said anxiously: "Oh no, Shi Le's troops are really invading." !”
