Chapter 505: Showdown
As the number one spy of the Wei State, Sima Qing's ability is irrefutable, stealing the drawings of the stirrups on both sides of the Saddle of the High Bridge and the physical object of gunpowder and sending them back to Luoyang, which has brought Sima Qing's espionage ability to the extreme, and these two feats alone are already second to none among the spies of the Wei State.
But Sima Qing has a sense of powerlessness, that is, in the face of the power of thousands of troops, her personal strength, after all, is obviously so humble and insignificant, it is not enough to influence the course of the war, in the battle of Chencang, although she has insight into Liu Yinsheng's plan to attack the west, trying to send someone to inform Sima Wang to prevent the attack of the Shu army on Chencang, but she sent people to just halfway through, Sima Wang's army has learned of Liu Yin's plan, and is launching a large-scale rescue to Chencang.
But in the battle of Chencang this time, Liu Yin used a plan in a plan, interlocking, first using the sound to attack the east and the west to make Sima Wang's army tired, and then besieged the city to help, and used heavy troops to wait for work in Wuzhang Plain, and completely defeated Sima Wang's army.
After all, marching and fighting is not Sima Qing's forte, even if she is changed to Sima Wang's position, she will not lose less than Sima Wang, when the Shu army crushes the Wei army on the battlefield, Sima Qing can only silently watch the defeat of the Wei army and do nothing.
Maybe she really regretted that she should have stabbed Liu Yin in the chest with a sword, so the Wei army's fiasco in Guanzhong would not have happened.
But after all, this is her self-deception, even if she didn't start at the time, it doesn't mean that she won't have a chance in the past few years, although Liu Yin's martial arts are not under her, and there are often guards around her. But there is mental arithmetic and unintentional. If Sima Qing really wants to assassinate Liu Yin. It's always possible, and although there is little hope of getting out, it's still easy to fight for both sides. Especially after Sima Qing committed herself to Liu Yin, she became Liu Yin's pillow person, if she didn't have a chance yet, it would be completely self-deception.
Sima Qing is committed to Liu Yin, according to her own words, she is deliberately close to Liu Yin. The task of stealing the gunpowder formula must be completed at all costs, because Liu Yin regarded the gunpowder formula as highly confidential, it was almost impossible for Sima Qing to complete the task by ordinary means, and if he wanted to obtain the gunpowder formula, he had to use extraordinary means.
This extraordinary means is to use his body to tempt to get close to Liu Yin, and only by becoming a person with zero distance from Liu Yin can he have the opportunity to steal what she needs from Liu Yin's side.
But is Sima Qing really a casual person? Even if she will do whatever it takes to achieve her goal, does she need to sacrifice her innocence? If she didn't have a good impression of Liu Yin and a trace of admiration, would she really do this?
Affection is often a wonderful thing. Although Sima Qing repeatedly warned herself, there would be no result between her and Liu Yin. But once you fall in love, it's hard to pull yourself out.
From the encounter in Qingcheng Mountain, to the reunion of Chen Cangdao, from Chengdu to Nanzhong, and then from Nanzhong to Longxi, along the way, the relationship between the two has taken root and blossomed in Qianyimo, and even Sima Qing believes that if they are not from hostile countries and hostile forces, then the marriage between them is naturally a matter of course.
But from the moment she joined the Military Division, Sima Qing felt her responsibility, the personal relationship of her children may be really far away for her, she is a spy, she is destined to have no result with him, for her own mission, she can only be a sword and a love thread.
Sima Qing held the paper roll in her hand tightly, and because she clenched it so tightly, the sweat from her palms had already wet the roll of paper.
"Y-when did you start doubting me?" Sima Qing hesitated for a moment, but finally asked.
Liu Yin smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I'm stupid, I've never doubted you, and I've always believed in you." When I first met in Qingcheng Mountain, I only regarded you as an ordinary medicine girl, and even after the assassination incident, I didn't have the identity of the orphan girl of the Wei family at all. In fact, I should have expected that if you were really Wei Xuewu, how could you mobilize so many Wei Guo's fine works to participate in the assassination of the Son of Heaven. It is even more coincidental on the Chen Cang Road, but you happened to appear in the direction of the escape of the Wei spies, and you even sacrificed your accomplices to win my trust, it is precisely for this reason that you succeeded in attacking the east and west, and successfully sent the Hanzhong defense map out from the waterway. In fact, I should have thought about it a long time ago, why you are always on the battlefield against the Wu and Qiang people, you can kill the generals of the Wu State in battle, you can sneak attack the prince of Xiqiang desperately, but when you are against the Wei people, you choose to retreat. Deng Ai was assassinated in Longxi, and I already suspected that there was a spy in the army, but I never expected that this spy would be you. Until the Wei people were extremely thirsty for the formula of gunpowder and frequently attacked, you took the initiative to come to the bath, which can't help but make me have some contact. That's why I deliberately found an excuse to leave the Baring Marquis Mansion and deliberately left this scroll in the secret room, because no third person except you and I knew the secret. I've been waiting here for hours, how I hope you won't come, how I hope you really are Wei Xuewu. It's a pity that you still came, this is fate, the will of heaven is so, you can't force it. ”
Sima Qing said faintly: "This is my mission, I can't betray my duty and my family, no matter how difficult it is, I must get it." Sima Qing's left hand was tightly held on the paper scroll, and his eyes were resolute and deep.
Liu Yin took a deep breath, slowly pulled his sword in his hand, and said, "It is also my duty to stop you, unless you can step on my corpse today, I will never allow you to take it." ”
There was a slight hint of surprise in Sima Qing's eyes, in her opinion, since Liu Yin had made full preparations, he must have laid a net outside, so why did he need to do it himself, just one order was enough to divide her into pieces, but at this moment, Liu Yin pulled the sword in his hand, obviously wanting to compete with her, Sima Qing, who was quite confident in his swordsmanship, couldn't help but feel a little moved, she hesitated for a moment, and said, "You want to do it yourself?" ”
Liu Yin said slowly: "I owe you a sword, so today I will give you a chance, win against me, no one outside will embarrass you, you can leave calmly, if you lose, then you will accept your fate." (To be continued.) )
