"Let's focus on business first." Tianming brought the topic back to the right track, and then asked Shaoyu, "Have you found any suitable opportunities?"

Shaoyu thought for a while and then replied, "There is no suitable opportunity. Most of the empire's actions are concentrated in the city or near the port. We can't forcefully attack other people's base camp."

"The only flaw is the transportation of materials."

"No matter what Gongshu Qiu came here to create, this thing is not small. There are not enough materials in Songhai City, and the imperial court has begun to mobilize materials from other places."

"What's the use of this?" Shi Lan asked puzzledly.

What use is it to them if they need materials in the city?

Tianming scratched his head and guessed, "You want to intercept their materials?"

"At present, it seems that this is the only way to force the empire to take more actions." Shao Yu nodded and replied.

Generally speaking, the transportation of materials will definitely be accompanied by escorts for protection, and the strength of the escort depends on the importance of the materials being transported.

The materials needed by Gongshuqiu involve the mirage's voyage. Needless to say, their importance is needless to say, but now there are only so many people in the court in Songhai area, and the materials needed by Gongshuqiu are diverse, and it is impossible to transfer them all from one place. There are many escort teams.

It is impossible to say that each team will arrange a escort team with hundreds or thousands of people.

Depending on the amount and relative importance of the escorted materials, the size of the escort team ranges from one to two hundred to three to five hundred people, and is generally not accompanied by shadow guards or snare personnel.

Of course, the empire's manpower was insufficient, and the Mohist family's manpower was even more stretched.

Fortunately, Master Ban has contacted many anti-Qin forces, and everyone's combined efforts are enough to deal with the empire.

Tianming rubbed his chin and analyzed carefully, "Once we attack the team transporting supplies, the empire will definitely strengthen its defense."

Shao Yu took over the conversation and continued, "Sanghai can't mobilize more troops, so people from Luo Wang or the Shadow Secret Guard can only take action."

"However, I'm afraid they won't give us a chance to divide and annihilate them."

The most important thing for Mirage to sail is that no matter what, they have to ensure that all the materials are delivered as soon as possible, so if something happens to the transportation team, they must take action.

But with the current manpower of Luowang and Shadow Guard in Songhai, unless the two companies join forces, it is impossible to take care of both inside and outside the city... Even if the two companies join forces, the manpower will be very tight.

It is obviously unwise to forcibly divide the troops when the strength is insufficient. Zhang Han and Zhan Ri will not do such a stupid thing.

Tianming's eyes rolled around as he continued to analyze, "Of course they don't want to give us this opportunity, but they have no choice. No matter what, they have to find a way to allocate part of their power to outside the city. It's just a matter of how to divide it.

"

"When the time comes, whichever side is weaker, we will attack that side."

"They may ask the Yin Yang Family for help." Shao Yu reminded, "After all, it involves the mirage's voyage, and the Yin Yang Family should not completely stand by and watch."

It is of course impossible to expect how many manpower the Yin Yang Family will allocate to support the Luowang Shadow Secret Guard, but there are many experts.

There are a total of seven top masters, even if only one or two are loaned to the Luowang Shadow Secret Guard, it will be a great help.

"It would be better if the Yin Yang family takes action." Tianming didn't care about this and replied with a smile, "I want to see if they plan to die in the mirage!"

The one that Tian Ming wants to attack and retaliate most is always the Yin Yang family, but the seven masters of the Yin Yang family have always stayed together in the mirage. Even if the Mo family joins forces with other anti-Qin forces, they cannot take advantage of it.

It would be great if the Yin Yang family dared to take the initiative to divide their troops.

If there are too many people assigned, he will take what is left on the ship; if there are few people assigned, he will take what is assigned!

"No matter what, a tough battle is inevitable." Shao Yu finally said with emotion.

This time, the anti-Qin forces rarely took the initiative in the confrontation with the empire.

For the empire, the most important thing is to promote the mirage to sail again, and other things are secondary.

The anti-Qin forces could choose when and where to go to war with the empire, but the empire had no time to proactively cause trouble for the anti-Qin forces.

Although it may be a wiser choice to eliminate the trouble caused by the anti-Qin forces first, the empire has no choice. They must first obey the emperor's will and complete the things that the emperor cares about most.

However, no matter Zhang Han, Zhan Ri, or the group of weirdos from the Yin Yang family, none of them are fuel-efficient. They must clearly see the disadvantages of the current situation, and they will definitely take corresponding precautions and responses.

The anti-Qin forces took advantage, but they would never achieve victory easily.

………………

They acted decisively at dawn, and the next day they joined forces with other forces to launch an attack on the empire's transportation team.

As they expected, the defense force of the transport team was relatively limited and could not stop their attack at all. The effect was remarkable for a while.

The empire's response was also very fast. Shortly after the attack started, Zhang Han and Zhan Ri got the news, and immediately made the same response plan - looking for Gu Xun.

In Songhai City, at the former site of Haiyue Xiaozhu, Gu Xunpan was sitting on a fishing platform by the sea, fishing leisurely.

Zhang Han and Zhan Ri walked hand in hand, approaching Gu Xun's back in a hurry.

"My lord, there will be something urgent to report."

Zhang Han was more calm when facing Gu Xun, so he spoke first.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say." Gu Xun replied indifferently, as if he didn't care at all about the urgent matter Zhang Han said.

"Rebels attacked a convoy transporting government materials needed by the clan leader. We suffered a lot of losses."

"If there is an attack, then you should strengthen your defense." Gu Xun was still indifferent to this and replied calmly, "Is it necessary to report this kind of thing to me?"

Zhang Han replied in embarrassment after hearing this, "This... Sir, this attack was jointly launched by multiple rebel forces. It will require a lot of manpower to deal with it, but we can't allocate more manpower at the moment, unless …”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gu Xun raised his hand to interrupt him, and said without looking back, "These are your business, you can handle it, it has nothing to do with me, I will No one can lend it to you."

Gu Xun seemed to be possessed by Jiajing, determined to be a hands-off shopkeeper, and barely recited two lines of poetry.

Faced with Gu Xun's evasion, Zhang Han and Zhan Ri did not dare to question anything.

But there is still one thing that Gu Xun must make up his mind about.

"Sir, I have discussed with Lord Zhanri. The safety of the transport team must be guaranteed, but it will be useless if there are too few people. Therefore, it is best to dispatch all the available manpower of the Shadow Guard or Luo Shen in Songhai." Zhang Han lowered his head and reported the report respectfully.

"But we can't agree on which party should go, so please give us your instructions."

Theoretically speaking, the risk of going out of the city to protect the transport team is obviously higher. After all, the city is the empire's home court. Even if the manpower is empty, the anti-Qin forces will not dare to directly enter the city.

Of course, Luo Wen and the Shadow Secret Guards were not willing to go out of the city to send him off. If they had a hard fight with the anti-Qin forces, they would lose their troops and generals at the least, or the entire army would be annihilated.

In this regard, the two people obviously had a dispute before meeting Gu Xun, and the result was that they refused to give in to each other, and neither one was willing to suffer the loss.

So Zhang Han chose to seek support from Gu Xun.

Zhan Ri's face looked ugly, but he did not dare to object to Zhang Han's operation.

The two of them had different opinions, so it was reasonable to ask Gu Xun, a person who could make decisions, to make the decision.

The only small problem is that Gu Xun will definitely favor the Shadow Guards, but there is no way to say this kind of thing openly... Even if he could, Zhenri would not dare to say it.

Gu Xun did not respond immediately. After a short moment of silence, he replied, "I said, those things are your business, I don't ask."

"However, the transportation of materials outside the city cannot be interrupted, and the public transportation inside the city cannot be disturbed. The safety of the mirage cannot be compromised either."

"The Shadow Guard must ensure the stability of the city!"

In any case, the Shadow Guard now occupies the home court, and Luo Wang is considered a visiting force. Naturally, the more important responsibilities must be shouldered by the Shadow Guard.

But it would be bad luck to hide the sun in this way.

Whoever gave the order will take the blame, and Gu Xun was obviously determined not to take the blame outside the city.

Therefore, Hidden Sun did not encounter the most helpless situation - Gu Xun directly forcibly designated the net to be delivered.

But the result makes no difference.

An Nei's job was forcibly assigned to the Shadow Guard, so naturally he could only use the trap to attract foreigners.

Moreover, theoretically speaking, it is "voluntary" or "voluntary" to draw a net to fight foreigners, and does not contain any coercive factors. If something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with Gu Xun.

Regarding this, Zhenri felt a little pained, but felt that it was barely acceptable.

After all, it is better to be tricked into dying by Gu Xun than to be directly killed by Gu Xun.

Taking on the task of protecting the transportation team is certainly dangerous, but this danger mainly targets the snare killers under his command.

It's not a big problem for a killer like him to survive.

As a trap killer, the fate of his teammates obviously cannot be told. As long as the emperor's orders can be implemented, he can explain it to Zhao Gao.

How many killers have died is just a number.

"In this case, the general will make his own decision." Zhang Han first responded to Gu Xun, and then looked at Zhenri aside, "Master Zhenri, is there anything else you need to ask for?"

"This is a humble position... I have nothing to say. I will only follow the instructions of the National Preceptor." Zie Ri replied calmly.

"Then you can go."

The next moment, Gu Xun started chasing people away without hesitation.

………………

The next day.

"The trappers are starting to move."

In the Mo family's stronghold, Shao Yu broke in furiously and shouted to Tianming.

"It seems they are in a hurry." Tianming laughed after hearing this.

"It's about Ying Zheng's dream of immortality. Of course they are anxious." Shao Yu sat down and said rather disdainfully.
