“Once there’s an emergency in the selenbronze mandery, activate them through the secret code. Only then will they gather together, such as this ambush.”
“As for this operation, according to their confession, the high-level officials of our Hongshang mandery were involved …”
The Vice mander of the guards couldn’t continue. Although he didn’t get the name, this kind of thing … Was really taboo!
!!
Lin Yi wasn’t surprised at all, only smiling coldly.
To mobilize 2000 Black Spirit Ferghana horses and equip 1000 armor-piercing crossbows in the hinterlands of Hongshang mandery, the king of Hongshang mandery would have been captured long ago without the cooperation of the important figures of Hongshang mandery!
Not to mention, Lin Yi had just led the Army out, and the spies of seitong mandery had already finished gathering and ambushing. How could they have such accurate information without someone to report it?
This matter definitely wouldn’t be let go so easily. To hide such a large number of Black Spirit Ferghana horses and armor-piercing crossbows, the person behind the scenes would definitely leave some clues.
Lin Yi would send a message to Sima Yunqi later and ask him to investigate this in secret.
A Big Shot who had secretly colluded with the selenbronze mandery was a huge threat. It was so big that it was enough to destroy the Hongshang mandery!
“Continue!”
Lin Yi’s thoughts turned, but he maintained a calm expression and waved his hand to dispel the Vice mander’s concerns.”No matter who is involved, you just have to report the truth. There is no need to hold back.”
The Vice mander of the guards bowed and acknowledged, then continued,”They didn’t say who was working with them in Hongshang mandery because they didn’t know either. It was a top secret. I guess only the top officials of seitong mandery would know.”
“In addition, the black magic mandery is also involved. Those armor-piercing crossbows were sold to the seitong mandery by the black magic mandery. The black magic mandery has never sold them to the outside world and they rarely sell them.”
“There is no doubt that this is the proof of the Alliance between the black magic mandery and the selenbronze mandery. That’s why those guys from the selenbronze mandery wanted to destroy the armor-piercing crossbow. They didn’t want us to use it, and they probably wanted to destroy the evidence!”
Lin Yi nodded. The black charm mandery and the seitong mandery working together was a guess that everyone had made in the capital. This time, it was confirmed.
In this case, the heimei mandery was likely to launch an attack on the Hongshang mandery when the war in the northern border was at a stalemate.
At that time, Sima zhengxin would probably have to send Sima Yun out!
There was nothing wrong with that, but Lin Yi had to think about it.
If he and his cheapskate father Sima Yunqi went out to battle, facing the attack of two enemy countries, how many soldiers would the capital have left?
Or rather, how many troops loyal to Sima zhengxin were left in the capital?
Could the person who was colluding with the selenbronze mandery be someone in the capital?
At that time, the capital would be empty. Would the Sima clan still have the ability to deal with the rebellion?
Lin Yi couldn’t help but scratch his head. If the Sima family was destroyed, how would he be able to use the power of the Hongshang mandery’s royal family to find Wang Xinyan?
Therefore, he had to settle this matter for him!
How troublesome!
He would go back and warn Sima Yun Qi and Sima Zheng Xin first, in case they were not aware that they were being plotted against!
Of course, these two were not easy to deal with. If one wanted to scheme against them, there was a high possibility that they would be schemed against instead!
“Marshal, there’s one more thing … The two of them said that there are many spies like them in the entire Hongshang mandery. Although I’m not sure about the exact number, I’m sure that there are more than 2000 of them. So, I’m afraid that we will be attacked many times before we reach the northern border battlefield!”
The Vice mander of the guards unit had a serious expression. He didn’t think that he would have such a good response every time. Sneak attacks were called sneak attacks because they caught the enemy off guard!
When an Army advanced, it was impossible to make no mistakes. Who knew when they would suddenly be attacked?
“I know! It doesn’t matter how many of these clowns there are, they’re just your practice targets. ”
Lin Yi didn’t mind.
These spies who were lying in ambush in Hongshang mandery were not strong. Unless they had an absolute advantage in numbers, they would not pose much of a threat.
The Vice mander reported some more information from the interrogation, but nothing important. Lin Yi didn’t think much of it.
He then thought about the number of spies in Hongshang mandery and had a new idea.
2,000 people, it wasn’t a lot, but it wasn’t a little.
If this force was not here to ambush the reinforcements, but to sneak into the three cities of the northern border, what effect would it have?
City Siege!
The confession mentioned that there were more than 2000 spies lurking in Hongshang mandery.
Did the remaining people already go to the three cities in the northern border and prepare to attack the three cities from the inside?
As he was thinking, Jin Yuan Bao ran over happily and saluted to Lin Yi.”Marshal, we’ve counted the spoils of war this time. We’ve seized two thousand Black Spirit Ferghana horses and one thousand ordinary armor-piercing crossbows, but ten of them are slightly damaged and need to be repaired before they can be used.”
The craftsmen of Hongshang mandery could not make the armor-piercing crossbow because the black charm mandery had installed an anti-demolition device in it. If they wanted to copy it, they had to face a pile of scattered parts.
However, some of the external damage could be repaired. These did not involve the internal structure, so it was not too difficult.
What Lin Yi was curious about was what a normal armor-piercing crossbow was.
Could it be that he had an extraordinary armor-piercing crossbow?
Jin Yuanbao saw the confusion in Lin Yi’s eyes and added,””The armor-piercing crossbow used by two people should be called a simplified version. The real one is at least five, six, seven, eight times bigger than this! It’s not something that can be carried by a person, but something that has to be fixed on a base. ”
“That thing is the real terrifying killing weapon. I’m afraid even the Masters of the original level wouldn’t dare to take it head-on. The walls of ordinary small cities might collapse directly!”
Although Jin Yuan Bao had never seen it before, he was the young master of the gold yuan bank, so he knew about it.
“Other than these, we also seized nearly two thousand crossbows and a similar number of short knives in the forest and here. It’s enough to set up a divine shooting Battalion!”
As for the losses on their side, Jin Yuan Bao did not mention them at all. The casualties in the camp were negligible pared to the spoils of war.
To be honest, Jin Yuan Bao felt that such ambushes could be repeated a few more times.
By the time they reached the northern border, perhaps the equipment of the garrison of the king’s city could be upgraded and pletely armed to the teeth.
Lin Yi nodded-he didn’t even need Yuanbao to tell him about the rewards.
