At dusk that afternoon, Chun Yubo, who received the news, hurried to Taoyi City to meet with Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan invited Chun Yubo to have dinner with himself and Chun Yuzhongxiu, and talked about today's events while eating. After listening to Gao Yuan's talk about what happened today, Chun Yubo also agreed with Gao Yuan's approach, in the current situation, he can only take a two-pronged approach, that is, to keep an eye on the line of the dog butcher, and not relax to collect other information, which is the most correct way to deal with it.

After dinner, Zhang Liang returned, and Tian Kezhang also came to the manor of the Han Kingdom with Zhang Liang.

It turned out that when Zhang Liang saw Tian Kezang in person, he only said that he had found clues about the Qin State's intercrop, and did not say anything about the Jiuli tribe, but asked Tian Kezhang to order the temporary imprisonment of the residents of several houses near the dog butcher's dog meat house for surveillance and hiding purposes.

After hearing this, Tian Kezhang couldn't help but be surprised, he thought that he could sit back and relax after catching Yao Jia and suppressing the remnants of the victorious party, but he didn't expect that there would be an intercrop of the Qin State in Taoyi, and they were also preparing to destroy the alliance. He couldn't rest assured, so he rushed to the manor where the monarchs and ministers of the Han Kingdom lived with Zhang Liang and asked Gao Yuan face to face.

Gao Yuan immediately received Tian Kezang, only saying that he had inadvertently discovered that a dog meat shop might be a residence of the Qin State, hoping to use a few surrounding houses to monitor the dog meat shop, hoping to find out the Qin State's intercropping.

Tian Kezhang did not doubt the discovery of Gao Yuan, but he thought that it was too troublesome to monitor the dog meat shop, so it was better to directly seal the dog meat shop, destroy this stronghold, and catch the owner and torture him. And Gao Yuan patiently explained to Tian Kezhang that this dog meat shop is just a small shop, and there is only one owner, so it will never be the main hiding place of Qin State, even if the dog meat shop is sealed, it will not find many valuable clues, on the contrary, it will also startle the snake, so that Qin State will be more vigilant, hide deeper, can only closely monitor, wait until someone meets in the dog meat shop, and then track, find the main hiding place of Qin State, and wipe it out.

After listening to Gao Yuan's explanation, Tian Kezang suddenly realized, and Zhong Xuanxiao also persuaded Tian Kezhang to obey Gao Yuan's Jianyi, and handed over the matter of monitoring the dog meat shop to Gao Yuan, as long as he waited for good news. Only then did Tian Kezang agree to the construction of the plateau, let the plateau do it, and promised that he would have his own dredge at the official level.

Gao Yuan then ordered the scout army to take action and control the residents of those houses overnight, but not to alarm the surrounding neighbors.

Although Ling Feng, the former commander of the scout army, had been promoted to the commander of the legion at this time, the actions of the scout army were not affected at all, and after receiving the order, he immediately changed into civilian clothes, hid weapons, and took advantage of the darkness to find out of the manor and disappeared into the darkness.

After more than half an hour, someone reported that he had taken control of three houses, which could monitor the dog meat shop in all directions, and did not alarm the surrounding neighbors, and a total of nineteen residents were arrested, leaving only two people in each house, divided into a man and a woman, in case all strangers moved in, arousing the suspicion of the surrounding neighbors, while the other thirteen residents were all sent back to the manor as hostages. Gao Yuan only ordered them to be imprisoned in the manor, but they should be treated well and not embarrassed.

And Tian Kezhang was also very surprised by the efficiency of Gao Yuan's subordinates, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little more confident in Gao Yuan, so he was a little relieved and resigned to Gao Plaintiff.

After Tian Kezhang left, Gao Yuan began to make urgent arrangements again, setting up ten people in each house, with two people as a shift, laying a net to monitor the dog meat shop without interruption, and strictly pay attention to the information sent by the dog butcher, and report to Gao Yuan at any time. At the same time, outside the dog meat shop, eight mobile sentinels were set up as an auxiliary to the monitoring of the house, and all the guests who entered the dog meat shop were tracked to the residence, and then checked whether they were suspected of being the hidden personnel of the Jiuli tribe.

Early the next morning, Takahara stayed in the manor, waiting for news.

The scale of this dog meat restaurant opened by the dog butcher is not large, there are only four tables in the store, and it is the same as when he was in Linzi, only ten pots of dog meat are made every day, and there are no more when they are sold out, so he is the only one in the whole store to cook, and he does not invite other gluten guys.

Because the dog meat cooked by the dog butcher does taste delicious, so the business has always been good, ten pots of dog meat, basically can be sold in the morning, and in the afternoon, usually the dog is killed, skinned, cleaned, boiled, ready for the next day's dog meat, every three or five days, will also go to buy a batch of dogs back. At night, the dog butcher usually goes to other hotels to drink, or go to gambling halls to gamble for money, and occasionally go to places like Nülu to have fun, and the daily life is simple and regular, not much different from ordinary small merchants and vendors. And because of its simplicity, it has reduced a lot of trouble for the monitoring of the plateau.

Although Gao Yuan was in the pavilion, he kept receiving news, not only whether the dog butcher had sent any signals, but also the personnel who monitored the dog inn followed every guest who entered the dog meat restaurant, but in the end, it was confirmed that they were all ordinary guests and had nothing to do with the Jiuli clan.

However, Gao Yuan also knew that it was an accident that he was able to discover the gathering of the Jiuli tribe, and if he found a clue on the first day, it would be too smooth, and I am afraid that even Gao Yuan himself would not believe it.

So he monitored for four days in a row, but there was no result, not only did the dog butcher have no news here, but even the other people who visited Taoyi City had no results, although Gao Yuan was still calm and quiet, but the others were a little anxious. And at this moment, Tian Kezhang sent someone to inform Gao Yuan that the king of Chu and his party would arrive outside Taoyi City tomorrow and enter the city the day after tomorrow.

After the Chu State and his entourage arrived in Taoyi, they had to hold an alliance immediately, and at this time, they had not found any clues to the actions of the Jiuli tribe, so although the plateau was still calm and calm on the surface, it was also a little unstable in his heart at that time. Because the more the Jiuli clan is so silent, then when the Jiuli clan launches an action, it must be a thunderbolt, and it is really hard to say whether he is still extremely precautionary at that time.

Although the plateau was not enthusiastic about the formation of the joint column before, it is not denied that the joint column is still beneficial to the newly established Han State, and the plateau has also paid a lot of effort for the joint column, and now the joint column is about to be formed, if there is an accident at this time, the failure of the joint column will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the three kingdoms of Han, Qi and Chu, and the Qin State will be greatly boosted by the people's hearts, and the Qin State will have taken the lead in strategy, as long as the national strength is restored after another two or three years, then the general trend of the unification of the Qin State, It's almost unstoppable. Therefore, he must stop the sabotage actions of the Jiuli tribe and promote the formation of the joint column.

Another day later, the people and horses of the Chu State had arrived outside the city of Taoyi, but there was still no news coming, and Gao Yuan's heart began to be a little anxious, but on the surface, he still had to maintain a positive stability, so he was naturally even more restless, and when it was time for dinner, Gao Yuan had no appetite, just ate a few bites hastily and didn't want to eat any more, although Chun Yu Zhongxiu's patient warm words and persuasion, it was useless.

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report, and the dog butcher finally sent a signal. It turned out that Gao Yuan and the dog butcher agreed that as soon as there was news, the dog butcher would hide the wooden tablets written down in the pyre in front of the dog meat shop, and hang a black cloth strip on the door as a signal. The personnel sent by Takahara to monitor the dog meat restaurant took the wooden tablets away, immediately rushed back to the manor, and handed them over to Takahara.

After hearing this, Gao Yuan immediately lifted his spirits, and hurriedly ordered someone to present the wooden tablet, and opened it to see that it was the dog butcher who received a notice from the organization at dusk and would do it tomorrow when Tian Kezhang went out of the city to meet the king of Chu and his party. However, the dog butcher was not told a detailed plan of action, only that the dog butcher was asked to gather outside the city early tomorrow morning to be dispatched, and that the dog butcher was required to wrap two red strips of cloth around his right arm as a mark.

After reading the news sent by the dog butcher, Gao Yuan also smiled bitterly, I have to say that this operation of the Jiuli tribe is quite strict and thorough, obviously after careful planning, and it is by no means improvised.

First of all, although the Jiuli tribe has a large number of lurking personnel in Taoyi, the number will not be too much, at most not dozens, hundreds, and the Han and Qi countries each have 5,000 troops, and the precautions are very strict, even if the Chu State moves in, the precautions will not be relaxed, so it is actually difficult to find a good opportunity to do it in the city, and when the Three Kingdoms hold an alliance, in the area around the altar, it will definitely be heavily guarded.

And only when greeting visitors is the most relaxed, because it is on the avenue outside the city, there will always be some pedestrians coming and going, so it is relatively convenient to do it outside the city. And the last time Tian Kezhang greeted the plateau and his party, nothing happened, most of the people have a certain amount of inert thoughts, since there is nothing unexpected when Tian Kezhang greets the plateau, then when Tian Kezhang greets the king of Chu, there should be no accidents, even if it is the first time to greet will be guarded, but in the second time it will be a lot more relaxed, this is a good time to do it.

However, although Gao Yuan knew the time of the Jiuli tribe's actions, but did not know their detailed plan of action, so it was difficult to make targeted arrangements, and it was still difficult to stop the Jiuli tribe's actions, of course, there is still hope that the personnel who monitored the dog meat hall should be able to track down the person who sent the message to the dog butcher, and maybe be able to find some clues from it.

However, Gao Yuan estimates that this possibility is not large, because judging from the Jiuli tribe's planned action this time, it is strict and thorough, even if it is a message, it is likely to be a single line of contact, and it will not show much flaw. But now at least I know the time of action of the Jiuli tribe, so it is not completely passive, if it is properly arranged, it is not impossible to prevent the sabotage of the Jiuli tribe, so Gao Yuan immediately ordered to gather Chun Yubo, Zhang Liang, Ji Ziyu, Hong Zhong, Qu Xian and others to gather together to discuss countermeasures.
