418 The Hatred (Silver 38)
Fu Ji really commanded the special forces, but the ten special forces who accompanied the team unanimously agreed with her decision in this matter. And I feel that ten people are a bit thin, and they can't be foolproof, so even the members of the camel team are fully armed.
Although these people have not received formal special forces training, they are not ordinary people in one-on-one fighting, and who dares to do this kind of business.
According to everyone's plan, it is better for these three people to be caught alive, even if they are disabled, they must be spared. In this way, you can know who is behind it, and you can go back and explain it to the colt. You can't go out and get three corpses and come back and say that you killed three assassins, even if there is Fuji Dinglei, it is estimated that the colt will have to punish everyone.
How do you catch a live mouth? Special forces are experts in this area. They were going to burn down the inn, and as long as the fire was abandoned, the people inside would inevitably run out, and the three assassins would have to run faster than ordinary people.
As long as you keep an eye on these two upper rooms, whoever comes out of them will shoot whomever in the leg, and then go up and smash the arms and legs with an ice axe, and the task is basically completed. As for what to do with this inn and the other guests in it, what to do with love, that's how the horse is taught, how to pit people in optics, and how to save people.
Generally speaking, the simpler the method, the less likely it is to make mistakes, and there are fewer links. In fact, it is exactly like this, along with the fire, there was movement in the two innermost upper rooms of the courtyard, first the lights were lit, and then someone appeared on the roof.
They were also quite smart, afraid of smoke outside, so they went directly to the roof from the beams, and then planned to jump on the roof next to it. Unfortunately, before his eyes could fully adjust to the darkness outside, there was a heart-piercing pain in his legs, and then he rolled off the roof one by one.
After landing on the ground, before he could scream, there was the sound of broken bones and a more heart-piercing pain. But at this time, I couldn't scream, and my mouth was immediately stuffed with something, and my head was covered with a black cloth.
Then he was carried and disappeared into the darkness, not a single person was heard the whole time, at best the sound of heavy breathing and the clatter of wheels against the stone pavement.
The interrogation was personally supervised by Shi Tong, with the assistance provided by the crown. The location is in the barracks of the Water Tiger Wing, the three disabled people who have been seriously injured were brutally tortured until dawn, and when the confession was given to Fu Ji, only one of them was still alive, and the remaining two were one because of excessive blood loss, and the other may have broken his spleen and died of pain.
Hong Tao hadn't woken up from the hangover at this time, the horse wine was too harmful, and when this thing was familiar to the Song people, both craftsmen and officials were almost all wine vats. Hong Tao, who usually doesn't drink much at all, drinks a fragment once, and he doesn't even know how to get back to the room.
"Western Xia Assassin!" But as soon as he heard the word assassin, the effects of alcohol were minimized, and he sat up from his bed, holding the confession and staring at it with one eye open and one eye closed. There are some flowers when both eyes are fully open, and those who have drunk too much should have experienced.
So how did these Western Xia Han people come to Jingzhao Mansion? Few people could explain this clearly, including the Assassins themselves, who were only acting on the instructions of their court, and were completely unaware of the details.
At present, the peace talks between Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty are nearing the end, and this time Western Xia really can't take advantage of anything. The Great Song court was very tough, and even did not hesitate to go to war again and did not agree to return Liangzhou City, and only made concessions on the ownership of some other small military villages.
But the Xixia people don't care about these small military villages, even if they give up the Hengshan area, they don't want to give up Liangzhou, if Hengshan is an arm of Xixia, then Liangzhou is the waist and eye of Xixia.
The horse Wang Xu's knife was too hard, and it was directly stabbed on the vertebrae, making Xixia half-crippled in an instant. The upper body is not good at moving, and the lower body is simply wasted. In terms of the sacrifice of one arm and half of the body, the Western Xia court wisely chose the latter.
It's a pity that the requirement of replacing the lower half of the body with an arm at the negotiation table is difficult to meet, and the Western Xia court can only think of other methods, such as assassination!
Through this five-way war, the Western Xia court also discovered a problem, except for the Qingtang soldiers and the Huangzhou New Army, the other four-way Song armies were still the same. Even the most combat-effective species in Yanyan Road are just changing the soup but not the medicine, and can only rely on the number of troops and the advantages of the terrain and the Xiangyou military division to make a draw.
If it is calculated in this way, if the horse Wang Shu is eliminated, the combat effectiveness of these thousands of new troops will immediately drop by more than a little bit. If you change the Northern Song Dynasty generals to guard Liangzhou, you will have to change back to your original appearance within a year or two. At that time, there is no need to rely on negotiations to return to Liangzhou, just grab it back.
As long as the horse Wang Shu is eliminated and Liangzhou is recaptured, the two countries will still return to the original state, and no one can beat anyone. At that time, if we negotiate peace with the Great Song Dynasty, it is estimated that there will be more benefits, such as restoring the annual gifts, and even bringing back the Hengshan area is not a luxury.
But how do you get rid of the pony king? Don't count on sending troops to fight, the brothers Renduo Baozhong and Baoyi are the most capable generals in Western Xia, and the Gansu Military Division and the Baima Qiangzhen Military Division are also among the best soldiers, but Leng was completely annihilated, who else can be sent?
Assassination, there is no hope in Liangzhou and Huangzhou, where it is simply monolithic, and there are pioneers and elusive black-clothed troops everywhere. If there are fewer people, you can't get in, and if you find out if there are more people, you still can't get in.
And they can't buy the traitors, both the Song and the Tibetan people in the local area regard the horses as gods, and they have been given a large amount of land and the hope of life, how much money do they have to use to convince these people to kill their hope and gods?
The only feasible thing was to enter the interior and assassinate, but given that the colt rarely left his territory, the Tanguts had no chance of having a plan.
Isn't there a saying in the future that opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. It didn't take long for the opportunity to come, and through some kind of channel that the assassins couldn't tell, the Western Xia court learned that the concubine Wang Shu had secretly returned to Kaifeng!
How could he let go of such a good opportunity, so through that inexplicable channel, the five assassins carefully selected by the Western Xia Quartet Investigation Division crossed the border safely and securely, and also obtained two of the most advanced steel plate crossbows of the Huangzhou New Army, and were secretly protected all the way to Kaifeng City and Jingzhao Mansion.
Due to the long distance, the two assassins in Kaifeng City had just left when they arrived, and they were in vain. But the three people of Jingzhao Mansion just in time for Wang Shu arrived, so they put on makeup as a sedan chair man, intending to surprise him. I didn't expect Wang Shu to be so cautious, and the idlers and others couldn't get close at all.
"Well, see how hard it is to do something serious. Some people can't wait any longer, and would rather collude with the enemy than kill their own officials. After reading the assassin's confession, Hong Tao basically guessed where the mysterious channel of collusion with the Tanguts came from, and he let out a long sigh and leaned back on the pillow.
“…… It was someone in the court who wanted to kill the official! This—this is a loss of conscience! The officials returned to Kaifeng with live mouths and confessions to present themselves with His Majesty, and they must be punished, and it is not an exaggeration to behead them all over the house! ”
Fu Ji has always been wondering who has so much energy to assassinate the other party's high-ranking officials across borders, so Hong Tao only reacted when he reminded him. That's right, it's impossible for the Xixia people to do this kind of thing, and the most reasonable explanation is that there are internal ghosts to respond, and they immediately opened their eyes angrily and cursed through gritted teeth.
"I don't know who that living mouth is, it's useless to just have a confession, such a big crime must have ironclad evidence. I'm afraid that this time it has nothing to do with a few ministers in the court, and they are not going to act like this, most of them are the military generals at the border gates. Your family officials have offended a lot of people, and they are both civil and military. In the future, you should also pay more attention to what you do, because if they can't do anything about it, they may make up their minds with you. ”
Hong Tao felt that Fu Ji might have scolded the wrong person this time, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang and others are politicians, and they are the best at playing political tricks, so they are not very good at doing this kind of thing, or they are also very disgusted with such behavior. If everyone does this, it will be tantamount to abolishing the skills they are best at and breaking the rules of officialdom.
Most likely, it was not the courtiers who chose this option, but the generals of the border gates. They have fought with the Tangut people for so many years, and they have some connections. This time, the court discussion was again brought to the issue of military system reform, which is tantamount to digging up the ancestral graves of those military families.
