Chapter 489: Chang'an Mirror
Chapter 489: Chang'an Ming Mirror
A note of a surprise attack on Bashu made Bai Qi gain the military power he had always dreamed of, and thus became the most powerful person in Qin. However, Bai Qi knew very well that this was only temporary, and the King of Qin never weakened his vigilance towards him. If he wanted to stabilize his position and preserve the military power in his hands, the best way was to take Bashu.
Although Bai Qi was very confident in his plan in the imperial study and also infected the Qin monarch and ministers, Bai Chen, as Bai Qi's cousin, was worried about this. After all, Deng Guo was not a vegetarian.
As soon as he returned to Bai Qi's home, Bai Chen couldn't help asking Bai Qi: "Taiwei, are you really 90% sure you can take Bashu?"
"No!" Facing Bai Chen, Bai Qi shook his head directly and said, "The famous generals of Deng State have emerged. Although Li Jing, the general of the Deng State Tianwu Guard who is in charge of Bashu, is there no famous generals, who was not an unknown soldier when the famous generals of Deng State debuted? Just talk about this Taiwei, when he replaced General Meng and commanded the army to destroy the Han Dynasty, wasn't he a nameless soldier? Li Jing was able to stand out from the Deng State military, where famous generals gathered, and take charge of the Tianwu Guard, his ability is never simple."
"Why did the Grand Marshal proclaim such a whisper in front of the king and the ministers? You should know that if you fail to enter Shu, what will you face?" Bai Chen was a little angry after hearing Bai Qi's words, and complained directly to Bai Qi. The whisper that Bai Qi praised in the imperial study was like a military order. Through this military order, the power of the King of Qin, who had always been dissatisfied with Bai Qi, was handed over to Bai Qi. However, once Bai Qi failed, the King of Qin and the ministers would definitely point the finger at Bai Qi. By then, even if Bai Qi could save his life, it would be difficult for him to recover in the future.
"Oh..." Bai Qi sighed and said, "How come I am not sure what my brother said? But now that I have no choice, I have made countless enemies in recent years, and even the king is very dissatisfied with this prince. If I lose military power, I may die without a place to bury me in the future. But it is not easy to give the king the power to this prince? Now I can only give it a try. Moreover, although this prince is not sure about this attack on Bashu, it is 70%. Don't worry, a little Li Jing is not in the eyes of this prince. Li Jing may not be simple, but what if Li Rubing? As long as Yue Fei is not in charge of Bashu himself, this prince will have the ability to win the final territory of this revival for the Qin Dynasty!"
"Since the Taiwei already knows it, I won't say more. I just hope that things will go as smoothly as the Taiwei expected!" Bai Chen sighed and said, "Nothing is useful now. The road has come true, so I can only hope that Bai Qi's talent can help the Qin army capture Bashu.
Bai Qi, who was in charge of military power, immediately wanted to dispatch troops and generals. Bai Qi, a general who had always been incompatible with him, would not be able to lead any of them. However, after removing these people, there were only a few famous generals in Qin State. Bai Qi could only promote a large number of young generals and act as the main force in the attack on Bashu this time.
This attack on Bashu is a very secret. Not to mention the people outside, even the Qin court knew about this matter. Everything was covered up tightly and the verbal was not revealed at all, because the King of Qin and Bai Qi knew very well that Deng State must have a large number of spies lurking in Chang'an City.
But no matter how confidential Bai Qi kept it, he was still discovered. In the 24th year of Qianyuan, late at night on the first day of the second month, in the west of Chang'an City, a ragged beggar knocked on the door of the medical hall. The beggar stood outside the medical hall. Suddenly, a voice came from the medical hall: "It's so late, who is it?"
After hearing the sound, the beggar looked around and whispered: "In the Star Tower, three-foot green breeze is in his hand!"
"In the high hall, a mirror is hanging high, where is the old one in the family?" Hearing the beggar's words, the medical hall was silent for a moment, and then a sound came out.
Hearing the voice in the medical hall, the beggar smiled knowingly, and then replied: "The dark generation is the twelve-year-old in the family!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the gate of the medical hall slowly opened, and a head was poked out from the hall. He first looked at the beggar, then looked around. After doing all this, he nodded and whispered: "Come in!"
After the beggar entered the medical hall, the gate of the medical hall was closed again, and the long street in the middle of the night returned to peace again, as if no one had ever come.
In the medical hall, a middle-aged man dressed as a doctor sat in the main seat. When the beggar saw the middle-aged man, he bowed and said, "Dan Twelve has seen the upper peak!"
The 12th generation of the Mingjing generation, and the one sitting in front of him was Mingxiang, the highest commander Mingxiang sent to Chang'an, Mingxiang. The rank in Mingjing is very strict. The Mingxiang generation is the first group of spies of Mingjing, who were selected by Su Hong himself, while the 12th generation of the Dark generation and the ones later developed slowly. As soon as they entered Mingjing, the previous names no longer existed, and some were just code names.
"Dan Twelve, aren't you lurking outside Chang'an City? Why did you suddenly come late at night?" Seeing the appearance of Daan Twelve, Ming Shiyi was very puzzled. Chang'an Mingjing was created by Ming Shiyi himself, and Daan Twelve was also selected by him and sent him to lurk outside Chang'an City to observe the situation near Chang'an City.
"You have reported to the top of the mountain, and I have something important to tell you about this matter!" said Sei Twelve.
"What's the matter? What happened?" Ming Shiyi's face turned a little serious. The rules in Ming Jing were very strict. Without his orders, other members of Ming Jing could not appear in his medical hall. No one knew about his medical hall except the members of the Dark Generation. Now that Mi Ye suddenly came late at night, something big happened.
"This is the thing. Half a month ago, my subordinates found that many Qin messengers came out of Chang'an City and went to all directions. The purpose was unknown. My subordinates didn't care much at first, but in the past few days, a large number of elite Qin troops passed by Chang'an City and stationed outside the city for three days. After three days of rest, they went south one after another. My subordinates estimated that there were as many as 100,000 elite Qin troops who had arrived in Chang'an City in the past few days, and the elite Qin troops stationed in Chang'an City all year round also distributed 50,000 troops to go south. As for where they were going, my subordinates were not sure for a while, but I was afraid that this would be a big deal for me, so I came late at night to ask for a visit to the upper peak!" The dark twelve said the matter completely.
After hearing the words of An Twelve, Ming Shiyi frowned and looked solemn. The elite Qin army suddenly gathered and headed south at the same time, with a population of more than 100,000. This is not a minority. The elite of Qin State in the country is only 400,000, and now nearly half of the troops gathered. This is the rhythm of war, and it is a big battle.
The main enemies of Qin are the Qiang people in the west, Zhao and Deng. Although there is still a covenant between Deng and Qin, everyone knows that this covenant is actually not restrictive at all. Whether it is Deng or Qin, it is easy to tear up this covenant. Now the Qin army is gathering, and the direction of the assembly is neither the west nor the east or the north, but it is the south. What is there in the south? The south of Qin is the Bashu of Deng. It is obvious that this time, the Qin army gathers, and the target is Deng.
Thinking of this, Ming Shiyi quickly said to An Shiyi: "An Shiyi, you will leave Chang'an City early tomorrow morning and return to the outside of the city to see if there are any elite Qin troops gathering."
"Yes, go up the peak!" An Shier responded, then left the medical hall and disappeared on the long street in the middle of the night.
After Antie left, Ming Shiyi sat in the study, writing a secret letter in his hand, and then called an apprentice hidden behind him, saying to him: "Antie, you will take this secret letter out of the city tomorrow, go to the tea pavilion ten miles away, hand the secret letter to the tea pavilion owner, telling him to send this secret letter back to Wancheng at all costs. In addition, I ordered that all members of Mingjing inside and outside Chang'an City should be dispatched to find out the movements of Qin. In addition, Qin generals like Bai Qi, Wang Feng, Sima Gong, Geng Yue, Ying Huai, and Ma Sheng will be closely monitored by me. If there is any movement, report to me immediately!"
The Imperial San is brought to Chang'an from Wancheng by Ming Eleven. He has been staying by Ming Eleven's side as an apprentice, assisting Ming Eleven in governing Chang'an Mingjing, and is also responsible for contacting all parties. In the entire Chang'an Mingjing, except Ming Eleven, only the Imperial San knows where all the secret spies of Mingjing are, and they are the confidants among the confidants.
