Seeing that the coach had no other words, Zhao Zhongyao said again: "There are still one or two plans, but they are all difficult, and I'm afraid it may not be successful. In terms of success rate, it is still the best one just now."

"Oh? Let's not talk about that one, let's talk about other ideas." Qin Mu turned away from the previous proposal.

"According to the information we have, there is only one incomplete division stationed in Queqiao Pass now, with about 5,300 people, all infantrymen. The division commander was from the Guanxi gentry and was timid and cowardly. There was previously information that this guy was worried that the road to Guanxi Fucheng was cut off by the Taiping Rebellion Army and had the idea of ​​returning to the Fucheng, but now the Guanxi Fucheng has fallen. Although the circulation of civilians and caravans has not been interrupted, the army is definitely impossible. The Taiping Rebellion Army will not attack this isolated fortress, probably to make him a stumbling block to block our way and delay our time to enter Guanxi." Zhao Zhongyao saw that the commander had made up his mind and immediately gave up his original idea.

"I have discussed with the division commander that if the cowardly guy can feel that the peace and rebellion army is about to attack, in this case, he can only ask for help from us or the Lulong Mansion in the north. The Lulong Mansion is far and difficult to travel, which is not realistic, and the situation in the Lulong Mansion is not very stable, so it is impossible. The only choice is us. As long as there is a formal request from the other party, I think we have a reason to intervene. I am just afraid that the imperial court will not accept our explanation."

Zhong Wu continued the sentence, but smiled bitterly when he said the last sentence. Obviously, this was the biggest difficulty of this plan. If he could not get a reasonable and convincing reason, the Empire would definitely suspect that this was another copy of the Northwest County incident.

Qin Mu nodded. It was difficult to gain the understanding of the imperial court. With the lessons of the past, no one would be wary of himself. Even the Seventeenth Princess was willing to send him to her side, and she could imagine her vigilance. However, as it was already so she couldn't care about so much.

"No need to say more, just arrange according to your plan. I hope it can be arranged as soon as possible. We can't wait any longer. The Taiping Sect's people will not give us too much time. Once they breathe, they will immediately think of coming to deal with us. Since we can't get the empire's authorization after all, we have to come by ourselves."

At this time, Qin Mu seemed particularly decisive and did not hesitate any more.

The Hanzhong Prefecture City, the capital of Guanxi County, is located in the imperial court in the Hanzhong Basin. The Taiping River flows from the northwest and slowly goes eastward. This is an ancient city with a history of 1,500 years. It is even necessary to trace the history to several dynasties. Two of them once established their capitals here, and the fertile Hanzhong Basin raised this area of ​​children. Today, the ancient Hanzhong City has changed its owner.

Armed soldiers patrolling with guns and live ammunition can be seen everywhere on the towering city walls. Their clothes are different from those of the Emperor's Team. The green cloth is covered with leather armor. Whether with or without a helmet, there is a striking red scarf on their foreheads. A large flag with white background and gold edges on the city tower is flying in the wind. In the middle, a three-legged blue bird is embroidered with the wind, just like it is about to rise into the air.

There are much less pedestrians on the streets in the city than before, and most of them close their doors. But there are still many businesses that have plucked up the courage to open the doors halfway. From time to time, people who are looking around quietly to see what is different from the Hanzhong City today.

The majestic Guanxi County Magistrate's Office is located near the Damiao Square in the heart of Hanzhong City. The Damiao refers to the largest temple in the western part of the empire left by the previous dynasty - Daleiyin Temple. It covers an area of ​​100 acres, with magnificent buildings and unique scenery. Dozens of ancient pines that are said to have been around for thousands of years, covering the sky and the sun. It also serves as the largest Tallinn in the mainland, Baohe Tallinn, which is used to store relics and Buddha bones left by the ascension of the monks.

Legend has it that eight hundred years ago, the famous monk Pudu, who was famous for his enlightenment, ascended in the sun after preaching the Dharma. From then on, this place became a holy place for the Shannan believers who believed in Buddhism in the empire. Every year, a large number of believers come from the empire and even from all over the mainland to rejoice and visit.

The capital of Kansai County is only 500 meters away from Daleiyin Temple. This courtyard is built in the traditional Tang style, with three-in-one courtyards, with a wide depth and a deep courtyard.

The soldiers on duty in the imperial gate who were once proud of their aura have now been replaced by four red scarf soldiers with high chests and high belly and energetic spirits. They looked ahead without looking sideways, adding a bit of momentum.

The second courtyard has ancient trees and a pleasant environment. It was originally a place for the county magistrate to work and meet with important guests. Now it has occupied a lot of people and has become the headquarters of the Taiping Cult in the Kansai area.

The large conference hall was filled with people, gathering the heads of various Taiping Cult departments in the Kansai region. It was difficult for these people to gather together. Even You Daofang, the great master of Taiping Cult, had no chance to gather with so many backbone members of the church to discuss major events at the same time.

However, with the unexpected success of the Taiping Sect's military operations in Kansai County, in just over ten days, it had captured the other five prefectures except Lujiang Prefecture, which had been stationed in the six prefectures of the county in just over ten days. Even Jincheng Mansion, which had the Second Division of the Fourth Army's Fourth Army, was captured by internal and external forces the day before yesterday, and the Second Division of the Fourth Army was forced to retreat to the neighboring Wuhu County. Now only the Lujiang Prefecture, which is located in a corner, is still surviving. I believe that it will not take long to fall into the control of the Holy Sect.

As You Daofang, wearing a green robe, sat on the upper seat, the originally noisy sound in the hall suddenly became quiet, and the few people following You Daofang also sat on the seats on both sides not far from the upper seat. Now, except for a few important figures in the sect, who had not arrived for some reason, almost all the important figures of the Taiping Sect in the Kansai area have arrived.

The first person sitting on the left of the Grandmaster was a young man under thirty years old. He was the second disciple of the Grandmaster. Lan Bailin, respected as the Second Young Master, was mainly responsible for the academic affairs of the eastern and southern parts of the empire.

Next to him was a man in brocade clothes, with a fat face, a wisp of green beard, and a rich man. He was Miao Mingkun, the envoy of Taiping Cult, responsible for economics and finance.

Next to him was a middle-aged man with a black veil, his eyes were covered with thick black scarves. Everyone only knew that he was the envoy responsible for intelligence affairs in the sect, but no one knew who was his surname and name. He was dressed in black all year round, and over time, the disciples in the sect were honored as the envoy.
