Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

 Chapter 2068: He let it slip

Chapter 2066: Spilled the beans

 After two days of rest and recuperation, the 10,000-strong landing force, which had regained its combat strength, began to advance rapidly toward Montenegro in the north under the leadership of Gongsun Xuanyuan.

Gongsun Xuanyuan held the distribution map of the Qing army in Liaodong. With his intentional avoidance, he easily avoided the Qing garrison on all sides, as well as all the villages and towns along the way.

 But an army of ten thousand is not a small number after all. No matter how careful you are, as long as the army passes by, it will leave traces. This cannot be concealed no matter how hard you try to cover it up.

Although the road Gongsun Xuanyuan chose was off the beaten track and according to common sense he should not be discovered in the short term, there happened to be two Manchu spies who unexpectedly discovered the Qin army's march while passing by.

Seeing that the land in front of them showed signs of renovation, the cautious Qing army spies dug it up and found that there was a large amount of excrement buried there, and it was also horse dung. As a result of the investigation, they finally found evidence that the army had passed by.

"Is this the trace of a large army marching? No, the Qin army secretly entered the border of Liaodong. Looking at the traces of the march, the number of people is at least tens of thousands."

"How is this possible? Hasn't the Qin army already landed in western Liaoning? What is it doing secretly entering Liaodong at this time?"

“God knows what the general of the Qin Army is thinking. It’s better to report it to His Highness King Jin as soon as possible so that he can make response preparations as soon as possible.”

"Right."

 Liaodong County, the administrative seat is Xiangping, in the prefecture.

Wanyan Aguda looked deeply at the troop distribution map in front of him and asked uneasily: "Military advisor, did you say that the Qin army has entered Montenegro now?"

 The reason Aguda is uneasy is because now he is betraying the interests of a country to safeguard his own personal interests.

In case the Qin Army fails in this action, its next actions will not be carried out, and it will be directly stuck at the starting point.

 In order to replace Nurhachi, Aguda has done too much, and he has absolutely no way of turning back. Only one person can survive between him and Nurhachi.

 So, Aguda and Gongsun Xuanyuan are now grasshoppers on a rope.

　　One glory brings both glory and one disgrace brings disgrace.

"Your Highness, don't be anxious. The Qin army is an elite army. If you cross the sea to reach Liaodong, you will definitely get seasick. It will take at least a day or two to recover. The Qin army should have just set off now."

 Zhang Yi said unhurriedly that although these were just his speculations, they were well-founded and convincing, and that was exactly what happened.

Aguda didn’t have the slightest doubt about Zhang Yi and sighed: “I hope there will be less twists and turns.”

 However, it’s not that simple.

 Soon two spies came to report.

“Report to the King of Jin that my subordinates have discovered traces of a large number of military activities in the Pingguo County area. I suspect that the Qin army may have secretly landed in Liaodong.”

Hearing this, Aguda and Zhang Yi looked at each other and saw murderous intent in each other's eyes, but they both hid it well.

“Who else knows about this besides you?”

"At present, no one else knows except the two of us and His Highness."

“After discovering traces of the enemy, we immediately came to the prefect’s mansion to report without any delay.”

The two of them reported to each other one after another, and Aguda smiled when he heard the words: "Well done, you have made a great contribution, will this king reward you heavily?"

After hearing A Guda's words, the two spies were overjoyed and thanked them: "Thank you for the gift, Your Highness, this is just the duty of my subordinates..." Before they finished speaking, a cold light flashed across their necks, and then at the same time, they A trail of blood appeared.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

A Guda sheathed the knife with an indifferent expression, his eyes calm, as if he had killed not two people, but two ants.

The faces of the two spies were full of disbelief and confusion. They had no idea why King Jin wanted to kill them. However, their throats had been cut open and their vitality was constantly flowing away. Even if they wanted to speak, they could not speak. , and soon fell to the ground and died without closing his eyes.

The movement inside the house immediately alerted the guards outside. The guards swarmed in quickly, while Aguda said calmly: "These two people are assassins who intend to assassinate me. They have been killed by me. Push their bodies out to feed the dogs." ”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

After the bodies of the two spies were dragged away, Aguda said to Zhang Yi with a solemn expression: "This is only in Liaodong, and the Qin army has already been exposed. How can we get to Lulong like this?"

Zhang Yi also had a look of surprise on his face and said: "Gongsun Xuanyuan is the number one general in Youzhou. Logically speaking, he shouldn't make too obvious mistakes. This accident should be just a coincidence.

Your Highness, you don’t have to worry about whether the Qin army will be exposed in advance. As long as you help cover it up, the Qin army will never be exposed before entering the Black Mountain. And as long as it enters the Black Mountain, the armies in western Liaoning will definitely find out before they leave the mountain. No. "

Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Aguma's uneasy heart finally felt relieved.

Um?

 Suddenly, Aguda realized that something was wrong, looked at Zhang Yi and asked: "Military advisor, how did you know that the commander-in-chief of the Qin army was Gongsun Xuanyuan?"

Zhang Yi was startled and thought to himself that it was terrible. He accidentally let it slip unintentionally. What he said should not be a secret that he knew.

Although Aguda joined forces with the Qin army, both sides were on guard against each other. It was impossible for the Qin army to tell him the candidate for the landing general. And how did Su Qin, as a military advisor, know about things that even Aguda didn't know?

 A cautious person like Aguda will naturally doubt Zhang Yi.

In an instant, Zhang Yi was thinking a lot, thinking of ways to explain. Although he was extremely anxious in his heart, his face still looked calm and calm.

If he can't get over this crisis, Aguda, who has taken the opposite path, will continue to rebel, but Zhang Yi will definitely die. Even if Xiang Yu wants to save him, it will be too late.

How to do it?

 Have it.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yi already had an idea in mind, and explained with a faint smile: "Your Highness, Gongsun Xuanyuan is the number one general in Youzhou, and he rebuilt Lulongsai with his own hands. Based on his understanding of Lulongsai, I am afraid that there is no such thing in the world." The second person can compare with it.

In addition, Western Liaodong and Liaodong belonged to the Liao Kingdom before, and Gongsun Xuanyuan was the Duke of the Liao Kingdom and was very familiar with the terrain of Liaodong and Western Liao.

Not everyone can accomplish the task of raiding Lulongsai. Among the current Qin army, apart from Gongsun Xuanyuan, who is familiar with the terrain of eastern Liaoning and western Liaoning, and knows Lulongsai very well, who else can parallel the sea route and detour the generals thousands of miles away? The Qin army was brought to Lulong Pass?

Therefore, Qin Hao will use Gongsun Xuanyuan as his general. Isn't this a matter of course? "

Aguda suddenly showed a look of surprise. There was no flaw in Zhang Yi's remarks, so he had no reason to continue to doubt his military advisor.

“That’s right, but military advisor, you should have informed me earlier.”

“I just guessed that it won’t be long ago…”
