Chapter 250: Guess
Editor: Atlas Studios
Please continue reading on ΒOXΝVEL.ϹΟM .The atmosphere at the border suddenly became strange as West Xia and the Jin Kingdom went into war. West Xia accused the Jin Kingdom of violating the treaty and snatching their horses, and demanded they return them.
However, the Jin Kingdom retorted that West Xia had ambushed their guardhouse. As for the theft of the horses, they denied it entirely.
Because West Xia had lost something important, and that thing was related to the Jin Kingdom, they were especially guilty. They suspected that the Jin Kingdom had received intelligence and specially came to snatch the defensive map back.
The Third Prince of West Xia, who was tasked to bring the defensive map back, could only send people to investigate secretly while arguing with the Jin Kingdom. He firmly believed that the person who stole the horses that night was from the Jin Kingdom, or rather, their goal was not the horses at all, but the defensive map in the saddle.
Trying to mislead him by wearing the Great Zhou’s military uniform? The Third Prince, Li Ningling, sneered at the thought of that. Having just taken down Hanzhong Prefecture, Great Zhou was doing its best to hold on to the city. What reason did they have to provoke his country?
However, the Jin Kingdom suspected Great Zhou. Although the people who came to attack the guardhouse that day were wearing West Xia’s military uniform and using West Xia’s arrows, the soldiers who chased after them saw that some of the retreating people were wearing the Jin Kingdom’s military uniform.
However, they had never been able to find out who this group of soldiers was. The purpose of this inexplicable battle was clearly to make the Jin Kingdom and West Xia fight, so they felt that this was a trick of the Great Zhou.
However, just as this topic was raised, before they could discuss it in depth, they were angered by West Xia’s endless requests for the return of the stolen military horses. Moreover, it turned out the few captured West Xia spies were actually there to find those horses.
It was just a hundred horses or so. When did West Xia become so petty?
The Jin Kingdom wanted to investigate aggressively, but West Xia became even more careful. On the Hanzhong Prefecture’s side, after seeing his brother, Qi Xiuyuan did not investigate the authenticity of the defensive map first. Instead, he ordered the Hanzhong Prefecture to appear relaxed on the outside and tighten up defenses on the inside.
The defense outside did not change, but the soldiers of the 4th Division were secretly sent to Hanzhong Prefecture to observe the situation closely. Once there was a change, they would defend Hanzhong Prefecture.
Qi Haoran thought that his brother would punish him, but Qi Xiuyuan only told him to consider things more carefully in the future and left him alone.
Qi Haoran scratched his head and asked his brother, “Big Brother, do you think this map is real or fake?”
