Fenghou

Chapter 457
There is a small village on the north bank of the Weihe River, called Xiaowen Village. In the east of this village, there is a rather large house, covering an area of ​​about four acres, but the owner lives in Chengji County, and the house is rented to a For the brothers who specialize in fishing in the Weihe River, they make a living by fishing.

The house has been rented out for several years. Although there are eagles flying up and down from the yard from time to time, the brothers seem to be honest and honest, and the villagers don't care about some of their weird behaviors.

In the afternoon, a letter eagle lifted off from the yard, circled a few times in the air, and then slowly flew to the northwest.

As soon as Xinying was sent away, dozens of soldiers surrounded the house from all directions. The soldiers turned into the backyard, took control of several eagle cages first, and then rushed into the house, pressing the two so-called brothers to the ground. , back tied up.

To deal with Xixia spies, we must first cut off their external contacts to prevent them from sending people to inform Lanzhou, causing false information to fail.

In fact, the Internal Affairs Battalion has been monitoring the Xixia spies for half a year. They have a thorough understanding of how many people they have and how they are distributed, so the Xinying camp was the first to be cut off.

The two spies who delivered the eagle letter were arrested, and the city of Chengji County also started to act. Jiang Xiaowu from Yi'an Teahouse was the first to be arrested, and he was directly arrested in the elegant room of the teahouse. The shopkeeper of the old North Gate leather goods shop and three assistants were there, and the three caves of the cunning rabbit were the second cave of Xixia spies.

At this moment, [-] soldiers from the Inner Guard Battalion surrounded Xuechuan Restaurant.

Fifty soldiers broke open the gate and rushed in.

Dou Qing was arranging a few tables for the evening banquet in the kitchen, when suddenly someone came stumbling over with his hands down, "Boss shopkeeper, something is wrong, Song Jun has come in!"

Dou Qing was taken aback, he suddenly remembered something, his face turned pale, he turned around and ran to the shopkeeper's room in the backyard, where there were all kinds of information he collected, not only from Yang Qi, but also the information they usually collected All kinds of population and people's livelihood information, as well as his secret notebook, which contains some records of him being a spy in Jingzhao, which is equivalent to exposing Jingzhao's intelligence point, Yanzhou's intelligence point, and other secrets .

There is no time to destroy other things, this notebook must be destroyed.

As soon as he ran into the yard, an arrow swished and hit his calf. Dou Qing screamed and fell to the ground.

Just as he struggled to get up, his neck suddenly felt a stabbing pain, and a sharp saber pressed against his neck, "Move again, and your head will be cut off."

Dou Qing sighed in her heart, fell to the ground, and no longer resisted.

Song soldiers tied him behind his back, stuffed his mouth with rags, and put a black mask on his head.

Song Jun's actions were extremely swift and violent. None of the [-] Xixia spies, including the shopkeeper, escaped. Except for five who were killed on the spot, the rest were all captured alive.

Soldiers of the Internal Guard began to search the restaurant thoroughly.

At this time, Wang Hao walked into the restaurant, and a soldier took off Dou Qing's hood. Wang Hao smiled ironically in his eyes: "Yang Qi stole the information at noon and was caught on the spot. He confessed to you, otherwise I didn't know that the well-known Xuechuan restaurant was actually opened by Xixia scouts."

Dou Qing cursed inwardly, it was indeed Yang Qi's fault, his face suddenly changed, Song Jun's dispatch information had already been sent to Lanzhou, if Song Jun changed his plan, wouldn't the information he sent become false information?
Seeing his face changing, Wang Hao couldn't help laughing, "You're serious, do you know how Jiang Xiaowu got into the teahouse? I called him in by name, otherwise how would you find Yang Xiaowu?" strange?"

Dou Qing's face turned pale immediately, and he suddenly understood that it was a trap from the beginning, and he was completely caught in it.

Wang Hao waved his hand, "Take him away!"

The soldiers covered his head with a black bag, put him in a carriage and took him away, and other spies were also taken away.

Wang Hao was completely relieved at this moment.

In the big tent of the Chinese Army, Zhao Xiaoyi held a wooden pole and explained the deployment of the Xixia Army in Gongzhou to Chen Qing and the generals on the sand table. Hetongxi County is the main logistics city, each with [-] troops stationed, and then there is a military city between Dingxi County and Tongxi County. The Xixia Army is called Xinqing City, with [-] troops stationed. In the place where the enemy's logistics and supplies were burned last time, a military city was also built, called Xinxia City, with [-] troops stationed there.

After entering the New Year, they have been using [-] camels to transport food and supplies without stopping.

Chen Qing asked again: "How many Xixia troops are there in Lanzhou?"

"Reporting to Dutong, if we add the [-] people in the four military cities, the Xixia Army will have a total of [-] troops. In other words, there are now [-] troops in Lanzhou."

Chen Qing nodded and said to everyone: "Cao Baozong will leave [-] troops to defend Lanzhou, so he will attack Gongzhou with [-] troops. Almost as expected, he will have [-] troops approaching the city. He got our false information. Before our main army arrives, we will attack Longxi County with all our strength and take Longxi County as the base for his attack on Qinzhou. Therefore, we must set off immediately and march secretly. Their onslaught has become a nightmare."

Everyone excitedly waited for the commander's order, Chen Qing said again: "General Yang Zaixing and Liu Qiong listen to the order!"

Yang Zaixing and Liu Qiong stepped forward and bowed, "The humble job is here!"

Chen Qingdao: "I will give you two [-] cavalry. You will enter Gongzhou from the north of Jichuan County. After the main force of the enemy army goes south, you will capture Tongxi County and Xinxia City. Don't surrender your troops. Let me kill them all. Then Use [-] men to guard these two military cities. When the enemy is fully attacking the city, General Yang can lead [-] cavalry to attack his camp and burn his food and grass. Time."

"Honorable order!"

Chen Qing said to the crowd again: "Tonight is the time to dispatch troops, and the army will depart at the third watch!"

Everyone agreed abruptly and went down one after another.

At this time, Wang Hao quickly walked into the big tent to salute and said: "Report to Dutong, all the Xixia spies have been removed. Except for the spies who sent the letter to Lanzhou, none of the other spies has escaped."

Chen Qing smiled slightly: "Any other gains?"

"In addition, we found a lot of information, which was collected by the other party for many years, including the entire Qinzhou, the population of each county, the city, special products, people's livelihood, etc., which are very detailed, but they should still be sorted out and have not been sent out. In addition, Beizhi also found a black leather booklet, which recorded many secrets, including Xixia's spies in Jingzhao, Yanzhou, and Fengxiang. In addition, Xixia is also smuggling Yanzhou's fire oil, which has lasted for ten years, and there are other secrets. It needs to be sorted out.”

"Will it affect the decisive battle in Gongzhou?"

Wang Hao shook his head, "Basically it doesn't matter!"

"Then tidy up slowly. After the expedition, I will leave the safety of my family to your internal affairs camp."

"Please rest assured, we will strictly protect it."

"Those spies are useless, keeping them is a disaster, and execute them all!"

Wang Hao clasped his fists and said, "Reporting to Dutong, I suggest that you keep two people. You can continue to send fake news to Xingqing Mansion. They can't let them find out too early."

Chen Qing nodded, "You decide for yourself! I won't ask questions."

At night, when the people in the city were about to fall asleep, Chen Qing got out of the warm quilt, got up and dressed, and at this time, his son was still sound asleep in the cradle.

"My husband is going to leave tonight?" Lu Xiu was really reluctant.

Chen Qing leaned forward and kissed his wife, "We must arrive at Longxi County before the Xixia army spies go south. The time is very urgent and we must leave tonight."

"Your husband must be careful, I wish you an early victory!"

"I'll be back when the war is over."

Chen Qing bent down and kissed his son's tender little face again, and stroked his little head, he sighed softly.

"Husband, go! Don't let the soldiers wait for you."

Chen Qing nodded, glanced at his son again, then turned around and left quickly.

At three o'clock, the [-] troops left the camp in two ways. Chen Qing led the [-] troops and marched westward along the south bank of the Weihe River. run.
