Chapter 2665 - 2668: Meeting
“Alright.” Song Yun Xiang nodded. He could accept this answer.
Fang Sheng Lin listened to these three people discussing about their plan to integrate the soldiers and yawned. He didn’t really like interrogating people unless he was asked to beat them up.
At that time, he would feel better.
“You need to recuperate and recover before winter.” Song Yun Xiang finally turned his attention back to Fang Sheng Lin. “Your abilities will be necessary for us to win the battle against the northern tribe.”
“I can’t control my body’s recovery ability,” Fang Sheng Lin replied helplessly.
Even though Fang Sheng Lin was confident that he would not lie on the bed for a long time, but he couldn’t make any promise. After all, Fang Sheng Lin knew better than anyone that he didn’t have any idea about his own recovery ability and so on.
If anything, it could be said that Fang Sheng Lin often dragged his injured body to fight again and again.
He felt that small injuries would not hinder his movements.
So why not fight?
Anyway, he would not die.
The others: “…”
Song Yun Xiang sighed. “Forget it. I’ll just let the doctor take care of you.”
With some medicine and enough food, Fang Sheng Lin should recover faster. He should not bother asking Fang Sheng Lin’s detailed situation from the person himself.
Because he didn’t even pay attention to this matter.
Fang Sheng Lin laughed lightly.
“When you get back, do you remember the scouts who come with you?” Song Yun Xiang suddenly asked.
“Huh? I don’t remember everyone. There are too many people,” Fang Sheng Lin replied.
As a careless person, Fang Sheng Lin didn’t like to use his brain and didn’t bother memorizing all of the scouts who came with him. When he reached the post that they have determined at that time, he simply let the scouts do their own work while he was also busy patrolling and so on.
There was no need to manage these people.
It was more like Fang Sheng Lin knew that he didn’t have any management ability and these people knew their own work well.
“There might be some people mixed with these scouts because their reports are inconsistent.” Song Yun Xiang chuckled and then said, “But since you don’t remember, I just need to question all of them.”
Gu Xia Mo heard this and rolled his eyes.
“Don’t you have any record whatsoever?”
“The record in this time period is not very complete.” Song Yun Xiang sighed.
Even though Emperor Yang Zhou had already done some rectification to allow people to have better records and so on, but it was not complete yet. Not to mention, they have only conquered Fan Yi Kingdom last year and directly used the army to fight against the northern tribe.
There was no time for them to do thorough cleansing for the people here.
They could only trust General Yang and the other generals on the north border that the people under them were competent and so on.
But it seemed that they would have to start their interrogation session soon.
“And it’s basically impossible to find all the spies unless you want to interrogate the entire army. Considering the army’s system in this era, it’s not feasible,” Yan Jin Nian said quietly from the side.
After staying in the north border during this period of time, Yan Jin Nian also understood the army’s system more or less.
But it was also because of this that she understood that it was not impossible for spies to mix in. Because there were so many people here and not everyone would know each other.
“Is it really that easy to sneak in?” Fang Sheng Lin looked confused. “From what I know, Fan Yi Kingdom also used similar system in the army as Fei Yang Kingdom.”
“Not really.” Song Yun Xiang shook his head. “Their system is different and had only been changed recently. Previously, there will be a small army and then a captain will arrange their soldiers’ arrangement. The smallest team is 10 people but now it’s 5 people.”
“The difference is small…”
“It might be small but in a team of 5, you will be able to know each other better,” Song Yun Xiang continued, not letting Fang Sheng Lin spoke nonsense. This b*stard never learnt properly and only knew how to charge ahead.
How could he understand the reason why the army was shaped this way?
“But one year is not enough for the entire army to be so united.” Song Yun Xiang sighed. “There might be spies that have been mixed in from the very beginning, so it’ll be hard to differentiate them.”
After all, Fei Yang Kingdom needed a lot of people for war.
The continuous wars over the years have already depleted the manpower and many people died in the war. If they wanted more people to come, they could only recruit more people again.
In this way, there might be some spies lurking with them and entered the army along with the recruitment.
It would be hard to detect.
“I thought that Fan Yi Kingdom didn’t have any recruitment this year.” Yan Jin Nian looked at Song Yun Xiang in confusion.
In the war between Fan Yi Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom, General Yang and General Gao chose to surrender directly. This move naturally protected their soldiers from being killed like many other generals who fought to their bitter end.
Because of this, there were still more than enough soldiers on the north border.
There was no need for Fei Yang Kingdom to recruit more soldiers and trained them again.
“I don’t mean new soldiers but older soldiers.” Song Yun Xiang pointed his chin to the south. “I got information that there might be spies mixed in because some people of the northern tribe didn’t look much different from us.”
Hearing this, the others could only nod helplessly.
They didn’t know the situation in the army as well as Song Yun Xiang, so they could only listen to his words.
