Chapter 1221 The confrontation in Jing'an Caoli

Xi Zhicai didn't know that under the rule of the Cao family, in the past half a month, Li Shimin, Yang Jian, Daoguang, Yongzheng, Yue Fei, Lin Zexu and so on appeared all at once, and left a famous "important" in the 5000-year history of China. figure'.At this moment, the most difficult thing for him to decide is the aspect of Jing'an Cao in Jizhou.

Since Pang De was worshiped as the Jizhou pastor last year, his main job in taking office is to select talents, stabilize people's hearts, and integrate the army. Enter Jingan Cao Elite.According to the news from Jizhou, the Ma family specially dispatched a high-level shadow official to visit Jizhou. No one in Jing'an Cao has known the real identity of that person, but that person's actions are very delicate, sophisticated, pungent and ruthless. During the season, many free strongholds were the first to be attacked and removed.

Then, in order to prevent espionage activities in Jizhou, the man introduced the strict household registration control system implemented in Chang'an City to Jizhou.Both civilian households and gentry military households must be registered with the local county government and checked frequently.This made it extremely difficult for Jing'an Cao to place new spies in, because a stranger who was not registered on the local household registration would be discovered soon.Therefore, the only ones who can really play a role are the spies who had been lurking before the Ma family took over Jizhou, and the former elites died one by one, and could not be replenished—this cast a shadow over Cao's intelligence activities.

But later, just after Ma Jiaxin established the postal station system, the shadow executive introduced it into the espionage system, and further expanded the intelligence network in the Jizhou area based on the advantage of information transmission that was always faster than Jing'an Cao. Many underground personnel were arrested one after another.Therefore, the only remaining county officials in Jizhou are becoming more and more important in intelligence analysis.

Xi Zhicai knows in his heart that the most important role of a spy is to always lurk in the enemy's camp and provide his own side with the real information he can get.But now, Jing'an Cao's connection with Jizhou is becoming increasingly loose and fragile. He can't guarantee when those elites who are still loyal to the Cao family will suddenly cut off contact with the Xuchang headquarters-rather than this, it is better to sacrifice Get rid of those elites in exchange for the specific measures of the Ma family's conscription and military preparations.

Such a one-time sacrifice has a lot of rewards: one is that one can speculate on the reason for the recent major actions of the Ma family; second, the Lord is very concerned about any reform of the Ma family, especially this important Military reform.Xi Zhicai judged that there was at least an [-]% possibility that the lord would introduce the reforms of the Ma family into Cao Jun's military system after some renovations.

However, in this way, it is obviously the defeat of the Cao family and the Ma family in another level of confrontation.Xi Zhicai is not a proud person, but he can't accept another blow like this.At this moment, he was facing the inquiry letter written by Cao Cao, and he had been holding the pen for a long time, but he was still frowning and hesitated, unwilling to write for a long time.

At this moment, Jing'an Cao's door was pushed open, and an ugly young man walked in, threw a document in front of Xi Zhicai, and said lightly: "Notify your subordinates Those guys riding the red eagle, now there are mice for you to catch." After saying this, the man sat down on Xi Zhicai's head, and after seeing Xi Zhicai's frowning expression, he was not only comforted, Instead, he deliberately added a sentence, "I hope those cats you have tamed can still be competent..."

Xi Zhicai didn't react much to this person's very rude, even provocative gestures. Instead, he put down the writing brush in his hand, straightened his skirt and scarf and said, "Just based on these names, you can tell that the Ma family has already paid attention to you." Are we here in the shadows?"

"This is His Majesty's judgment." The man replied softly, his short nose looked even uglier under a smile.

"Pang Tong!" Xi Zhicai finally couldn't hold back his anger, but Xi Zhicai couldn't be blamed for it.At present, Cao Cao, Lord Sikong, is fighting a tug-of-war against the resurgent imperial faction in the court. What Cao Cao means is to temporarily let these guys jump out of the open.As a result, Jing'an Cao, which was once under the direct control of His Majesty, has become a bargaining field.

What's interesting is that today's emperor doesn't seem to be very interested in those ministers who are licking his ass in the court, but he is very concerned about the department of Jing'an Cao.In fact, the dark power in his hands has not completely disappeared.Taking advantage of this opportunity, under the mediation of Concubine Cao, he extended his hand to Cao Jing'an again.And Pang Tong in front of him is the proof that the emperor intervened in Jing'an Cao.

To be honest, Xi Zhicai thought that Pang Tong's ability was by no means inferior to his own, but the strange thing was that he still refused to be included in the Sikong Mansion.So far, he has even hung up the idle job of a servant, and has been in charge of some secret matters that Xi Zhicai is not easy to inquire about.

"Why?" Pang Tong smiled slightly, showing no fear of this powerful figure who made any general in the Cao family stand in awe of three points, and directly put on a provocative tone without even pretending: "Are you doubting your majesty? judge?"

Xi Zhicai remained silent.

"Don't be so reluctant, think about it on the bright side, if you Jing'an Cao can really crack the Ma family's activities, then you still want to send all the elites in Jizhou to the Ma family's prison?" Pang Tong was obviously very aware of Xi Zhicai's current situation, and followed the guidance: "Besides, I have a hunch that the Ma family's sudden conscription to prepare for military forces this time is just another trick to deceive the world. Ma Chao is really good at this kind of method. .”

Xi Zhicai's expression changed, and he heard the deep meaning in Pang Tong's tone: "You mean, the continuous actions of the Ma family this time are related to his entry into Xiangyang a few days ago?"

"I don't know," Pang Tong spread his hands, and said with a teasing smile that made Xi Zhicai punch him on the face: "Who made your Jing'an Cao even more incompetent? You can't even detect Ma Chao's whereabouts." out."

Pang Tong likes to use a few words every time to stir up this guy who is usually like a rock, but this time after he finished saying this, he found that Xi Zhicai gradually calmed down, and there was even a trace of weirdness on the corner of his mouth afterwards, Looking at him, he said, "Not necessarily. Although we can't track down Ma Chao's whereabouts in real time, it's still possible to put an afterthought. Moreover, we found out that after Ma Chao entered Xiangyang, he made a special trip to Longzhong on the outskirts of Xiangyang. Moreover, half a month later, your uncle Pang Degong was picked up by a group of mysterious people, presumably, the destination should be Chang'an, right?"

"Oh?" Pang Tong blinked his eyes, appearing a little silent.After a long time, he murmured to himself: "Could it be that that little snake can't stand being lonely anymore?"

"What?" Xi Zhicai didn't hear Pang Tong's words clearly, and asked immediately.Events that can make this guy show this worried look are rare.

"You think that if Ma Chao kidnapped my uncle, I might betray His Majesty, don't you?" Pang Tong sneered twice, and then he didn't want to get too entangled in this issue.Then he waved his hand and continued the topic just now: "You didn't investigate the thatched cottage in Longzhong in detail, did you? I mean, does Huang Chengyan have a daughter?..."

"The boy guarding the thatched cottage said that Ah Chou was also taken away." Xi Zhicai smiled with difficulty, looked at Pang Tong's slightly flushed face and said, "Although Ah Chou has an ugly name, he is far away from us." According to the investigation, she is not ugly at all..."

Pang Tong naturally understood what Xi Zhicai was laughing at, and he didn't know if he was really aroused at the moment, so he stood up suddenly, and said with a flick of his sleeves: "Hmph! Trash, sooner or later you will be regretted by the ugly and the janitor boy who ignored you today of!"

Xi Zhicai's face suddenly became gloomy, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with this Pang Tong, so he directly turned the topic back to the original point, and said gloomyly: "You came here to let Jing'an Cao find out whether there is a shadow of the Ma family sneaking in. Xuchang, right?"

"Don't get me wrong, I am here to help you out of kindness to preserve your Jing'an Cao's power in Jizhou!"

"it is good!"

The smell of gunpowder between the two became stronger and stronger, and Xi Zhicai suddenly stood up and walked out angrily.And Pang Tong looked at Xi Zhicai's back, with a complicated arc of pity and disdain on the corner of his mouth: "This guy, so quickly figured out where to start? However, ignoring Ah Chou and Zhuge Liang, it is still Cao Shijing The biggest failure in the history of An Cao!"

At this time, the single had arrived at the Longmen Inn in Xuchang City.At this time, he looked a little bloated, his body was already covered with gold ornaments, his face was shiny, and he was also dressed in luxurious but rough fur. He looked like a businessman from outside the Great Wall who got rich once, shouting at the top of his voice Said: "Come to a room, don't worry about the price!"

"Okay, where is the guest officer from?" the man greeted attentively.

"Oh, I come from Jiuyuan, as you can see, I have the blood of the Huns, and my name is Genghis Khan!"

The guy was obviously taken aback, looked at the single song strangely, and whispered: "It's really strange, yesterday afternoon, a guy named Genghis Khan just entered, why is there another one today?"

Single's ears were extremely sharp, and after hearing this, a look of joy flashed in his eyes, and Gravity patted the guy on the shoulder: "That's right, Genghis Khan is not a name, it's the surname of our Huns. That man is my brother , take me to see him!"
