Chapter 126: Xia Zu's Expedition

Every information is clearly written.

Just an hour ago, there was a sudden large-scale mobilization of troops at the border.

Qi State provoked the war without any warning, and invested tens of thousands of troops. Daxia was caught off guard, and was caught off guard and retreated steadily.

After 40 minutes of fierce fighting, the border finally organized a decent line of defense, regained the lost position, and continued to counterattack.

No one knows why this conflict broke out without warning, and no one knows how long this conflict will last, and how it will end in the end.

This is the end of the edited content on the news, and there seems to be a layer of sadness revealed between the lines.

Where there is war, there is sacrifice.

Where there is sacrifice, there must be grief and parting...

Qin Mo's eyes flickered, he took a deep breath, and frowned.

"It's not right to rush to do it at this time, what the hell are Qi people thinking?"

He was keenly aware of the problem.

You must know that the conflict between Qin and Qi is not a day or two, but a whole thousand years.

In such a far-reaching war with such a long time span, the two sides must already know each other very well. Without absolute certainty, it is impossible for a large-scale conflict to break out. At best, it is a small friction.

Wars have always affected the whole body, and the last border conflict is enough to show that both countries are deliberately controlling the scale of the situation to avoid further escalation.

But now, Qin's border has been torn apart. This is obviously not a small conflict.

Besides, the current timing is also very wrong. Although Li Mou was assassinated, he is not dead yet!

Therefore, deep doubts arose in Qin Mo's heart, and it was difficult for him to understand Qi Guo's thoughts.

The super brain was running rapidly, and combined the known information to conduct detailed analysis and deduction, but in the end Qin Mo was still at a loss.

"Hiss... There is no reason at all, what is Qi's strategic intention to launch this war?

What benefits can they gain from it? Could it be that there is something else I don't know? "

The public opinion that the public can see can never be the truth of public opinion.

This sentence can be said to be one of the basic rules of operation at the bottom of this strictly hierarchical world.

Just at this moment, a hasty phone call suddenly rang in the room, breaking the silent atmosphere.

Qin Mo took out his mobile phone and saw that the call displayed on the screen was a call from Li's Castle.

Immediately, his eyes froze, and a color of surprise appeared in his heart, and he couldn't help but secretly said.

"Sure enough."

The Li family is one of the five great families with a transcendent status, and the vast majority of their family's power is stationed at the border.

For this sudden war, the news that Mrs. Li can know must be the most comprehensive and true.

I just don't know why Gubao's call came so late, one step slower than the major media.

Qin Mo suppressed his doubts for a while, then pressed the dial button, and put the phone to his ear.

The familiar voice of the old butler of the old castle immediately rang from the phone, and he only heard him say:

"Young Master Qin, you should have seen the news from the border, right?"

"Well, I just saw what happened at the border." Qin Mo asked.

Hearing this, the old butler paused for a while, changed a more dignified tone, and replied:

"The State of Qi did start a war without warning. We don't know their motives yet, but the scale of the conflict this time is far bigger than what you have seen, my son."

"Is it bigger?" Qin Mo raised his eyebrows and his eyes flickered.

"That's right, the border was not only torn open by the Qi State, but an entire county was about to fall. Lin Shu, the guarding general of the Lin family in the Far East who had just taken office, was beheaded by the Qi State... ..."

hiss!

Qin Mo gasped abruptly. He had expected that the scale would be huge this time, but he didn't expect it to be so big!

A county was about to fall, and Lin Shu was beheaded by the crowd. This...

Qin Mo couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking shocked. This can indeed be called the biggest conflict that has erupted in the past century.

What do the Qi people want to do?

What is Daqin doing?

The border hoarded with heavy troops can be so fragile, it seems to be like paper, and it can be broken by others.

Qin Mo really didn't understand, there must be some unknown tricks in it.

But since the old housekeeper didn't mention this to him, it's obvious that the Qingyang Li family is still not very clear about it.

After giving him time to fully digest the news, the old butler went on to say:

"Young Master, the news of the general being beheaded and the fall of the county will not be kept secret for long. The people will know sooner or later, and a court council will be held tomorrow morning to confirm who will lead the troops to fight.

The head of the family was publicly assassinated, no matter whether it was done by the Qi State or not, at least they took over this shit pot firmly, and now they brazenly provoked a war, and the momentum of public opinion has reached an unprecedented peak.

What the Presbyterian Church means is that someone is using this to divert the public's attention and focus beyond the border, so the imperial capital may not be peaceful, so you have to be more careful. "

"look away……"

Qin Mo's brows gradually tightened, and he murmured softly word by word. At the same time, he pondered for a while in his heart, then nodded and said:

"okay, I get it."

"Then I won't disturb your rest." The old housekeeper said with a smile.

Qin Mo answered absently, and then the two ended the call.

Once again, the empty room fell into a lonely silence.

Qin Mo sat cross-legged on the sofa, still frowning tightly, his eyes flickering back and forth, apparently doing massive analysis and calculations in his mind.

"Avert your eyes? Do you need to make such a big noise?"

The explanation given by the Presbyterian Church is indeed very reasonable and makes sense.

But the problem is that what Qin Mo said above, Qi Guo's actions are really too big.

Still, he thinks there are other reasons.

"The Gaoling Xia Clan secretly communicated with the Qi State. There is no doubt about it. Could this matter have anything to do with them?" Qin Mo whispered to himself.

If it is really just to divert attention, then needless to say, this is what Xia Zu did.

The recent major event in the imperial capital is that they are assassinating important officials of various departments.

All kinds of conjectures kept popping up in his mind, but Qin Mo didn't know what the actual truth was.

However, since you can't figure it out for a while, there is no need to think about it.

As the saying goes, when soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, just see the move and dismantle it.

Qin Mo shook his head, dispelled the complicated thoughts in his mind, kept his mind clear, went straight to the bedroom, climbed into bed, and fell asleep peacefully.

So and so, nothing to say all night.

Early the next morning.

After a night of fermenting, the news of the fall of a county really exploded.

The entire imperial capital fell into an unprecedented boiling state, as if a spark had been thrown into a keg of explosives, and the three sentences that people chatted after meeting could not be separated from the border.

The Daqin official also chose to publish a message at this time, and an emergency meeting will be held in the royal restricted area at 8:00 this morning.

His Majesty the Emperor appeared in person, strongly condemned the despicable and shameless actions of the Qi State, and said impassionedly that the Great Qin would definitely make the Qi State pay the due price.

The blood of Qin people must not be shed in vain!

This resolute speech directly pushed the status of the royal family to a peak.

Because of the weak power of this generation, the royal family of Daqin originally had little sense of existence, but after this incident, it once again left a deep imprint on the people and consolidated its position invisibly.

Qin Mo looked at these few reports in the newspaper, but his expression was normal.

He had seen too many such methods, and it was impossible for him to have any mood swings.

After two lifetimes, he has long since become an experienced old fritter, and is no longer that eighteen-year-old young man with blood all over his body.

The darkness that exists in the upper class of this world is like naked vampires.

He still kept his previous biological clock unchanged, went out on time at 6:30, and then walked slowly towards the security bureau while basking in the sun.

At nine o'clock, Qin Mo stepped into the office on the top floor on time.

Afterwards, he sat beside the floor-to-ceiling windows, tidying up the table habitually, while waiting for the final result of the court meeting.

Fifteen minutes passed like this.

The phone call from Li's Castle rang again. After Qin Mo connected, the old housekeeper just said a word.

"My lord, the result is out, Xia Zu is about to go to the border."

Hearing this name, Qin Mo's eyes immediately became awe-inspiring, but at the same time, there was a look of doubt between his brows and eyes.

Xia Zu, the new champion, the Great Qin God of War.

He has been guarding the border for many years, and he has an excellent understanding of the various lines of defense and alignment personnel, and his personal strength is very strong, and he is guaranteed to be a ninth-level S-level awakener.

Not to mention, Xia Zu has a glorious resume. Not long ago, he beheaded a general of Qi State in front of the frontier formation.

It seems reasonable for him to go out in this war.

The candidate fell on Xia Zu's head, and I am afraid that the people of Daqin will not have any accidents.

Instead, his momentum will go even further.

But Qin Mo felt more and more that something was wrong, but he couldn't fathom Xia Zu's intention in this move.

After all, the Xia clan of Gaoling was a traitor, wouldn't sending Xia Zu there be like inviting wolves into the house?

Xia Zu has guarded the border for many years, and Qin Mo would not believe it at all if he said that there was no secret operation.

If he had the heart, he might be able to easily collapse the small half of the border defense line.

"Could it be that Xia Zu's trip was intentional? He wanted to take the opportunity to rebel?"

Such doubts emerged in Qin Mo's heart, but the next moment he denied this guess, shaking his head and saying:

"No, Xia Zu is not so stupid, what exactly is he trying to do?"

Qin Mo really didn't understand.

Whether it was the war that Qi State provoked last night, or Xiazu's expedition that was negotiated today, everything revealed strangeness.

And, there are still oddities everywhere.

The timing was so appropriate that Qin Mo couldn't help but think about it.

It's a pity that only the elders of the Li family in Qingyang and himself know about Gaoling Xia's collusion with the enemy and treason, and there is no mountain of evidence at hand.

Even if they sensed something was wrong, they couldn't stop it in a timely and effective manner.

You can't go to the street and call Xia Zu a traitor, right?

With Xia Zu's current reputation, I am afraid that the person who shouted this sentence will be treated as a traitor first.

This is the terror directed by public opinion.

Qin Mo knew it clearly and could see clearly.

He hung up the phone casually, resting his fingers crossed on the back of his head, leaning back against the chair, bathed in sunlight, with a very peaceful state of mind.

Qin Mo just waited and watched the changes to plan for the future.

Anyway, Xia Zu's departure has only advantages and no disadvantages for what he is going to do now.

The Gaoling Xia clan would be much easier to deal with without such a strong man of unknown strength.

Thinking of this, Qin Mo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer.

"Ah!"

...

...

six hours later.

Qin Mo, who took a nap at noon, raised his eyelids, opened his mouth and yawned, got up and stretched his muscles a little.

Immediately afterwards, he lay back on the chair again.

But this time, it was different from the morning.

Qin Mo silently released his super hearing, and the coverage area continued to expand towards the surrounding area.

After a few seconds, except for a few special places where there was no sound, the entire imperial capital was covered by him.

These special places seem to have mental barriers, which can resist the detection of others, and the protection is extremely strong.

For example, the main hall where the court deliberated, and several ancient castles, etc.

Qin Mo didn't pay attention to these for the time being, he skipped these special places directly, further narrowed the coverage area, and improved the hearing accuracy.

Immediately afterwards, as in the past, useless voices were removed layer by layer, leaving only the voices of people in the end.

Qin Mo's super brain has already begun to run rapidly, summarizing, processing, analyzing and distinguishing the thousands of massive information.

He uses the "keyword marking method". When he hears a few set keywords, he will quickly trace the source to determine the location of the sound.

Soon, the communication of everyone in the entire imperial capital was included in Qin Mo's real-time monitoring.

Xia Zu had already left the imperial capital an hour ago, he stepped on an armed fighter jet flying to the border, and estimated that it was almost here now.

Qin Mo has confirmed that he will ignore the matter on the border for the time being, so he naturally wants to let go of his hearing and investigate the next target of the Gaoling Xia Clan.

The group of Xia Clan's people who secretly entered the imperial capital were all dispersed to various regions on the same day, and they hid silently.

This undoubtedly greatly increased the difficulty of detection. After all, there are tens of millions of people in the imperial capital. If you want to find such a few, you are obviously looking for a needle in a haystack.

But for Qin Mo, the difficulty was not very high.

As long as the other party will take action, it is absolutely impossible to escape his ears.

And so, an hour flew by.

Qin Mo would withdraw his hearing every fifteen minutes to recover the mental power consumed by the super brain, to ensure clear thinking and flexible mind.

And when he released his super hearing for the fourth time, a certain sound eighty-seven kilometers away directly triggered the key words he had marked.

Qin Mo's expression changed immediately, and his eyes lit up.
