Chapter 158 The truth gradually becomes clear
As the enemy's actions unfold, the truth behind the new conspiracy gradually becomes clear, and Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling begin preparing for their final counterattack.
After thoroughly analyzing and tracking the enemy's series of actions, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling finally pieced together the whole conspiracy.
"So their goal wasn't just targeting the Marquis's mansion, but rather attempting to overthrow the court and seize greater power." Su Jinxiu's eyes flashed with anger.
Xiao Ling clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, "We must not let these wolves succeed."
To ensure the success of their final counterattack, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling began meticulously planning every detail. They summoned the strategists and generals of the Marquis's mansion to discuss countermeasures.
"We must strike unexpectedly and catch them off guard in order to thwart the enemy's plot in one fell swoop," Xiao Ling said at the meeting.
Su Jinxiu added, "At the same time, we must also make full preparations to deal with all possible situations."
Everyone nodded in agreement, shared their opinions, and offered many valuable suggestions.
In preparing for the counterattack, the entire Marquis's household worked together with high morale. Soldiers trained day and night, and strategists continuously refined the battle plan.
However, difficulties soon followed.
"Madam, we've encountered some problems with our food reserves. If we can't resolve them in time, it could affect our battle plans," the steward reported to Su Jinxiu with concern.
"Immediately send people to purchase grain and fodder; we must ensure a supply no matter what," Su Jinxiu said decisively.
Meanwhile, the enemy also noticed the commotion at the Marquis's residence and began to strengthen their defenses in an attempt to prevent the Marquis's counterattack.
“They seem to have noticed us; we must speed up our actions,” Xiao Ling said.
Su Jinxiu pondered for a moment: "Then let's launch an attack ahead of time and catch them off guard."
Finally, the day of retaliation arrived.
Led by Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling, the Marquis's army surged towards the enemy's camp like an iron torrent.
"For the Marquis's mansion, for justice, kill!" Xiao Ling's shouts echoed through the sky.
The enemy was intimidated by the momentum of the Marquis's army and was put on the defensive from the very beginning.
Su Jinxiu calmly directed the battle from the rear, adjusting tactics in a timely manner according to the situation on the battlefield.
"Intensify the attack from the left flank, while the right flank maneuvers to encircle and flank!"
Under the fierce attack of the Marquis's army, the enemy's defenses gradually collapsed.
"Oh no, we can't hold them off any longer!" the enemy cried out in panic.
But just when victory was in sight, an unexpected event occurred.
One of the Marquis's vanguard units fell into an enemy trap and suffered heavy casualties.
"Go and rescue them quickly!" Xiao Ling was extremely anxious.
At the critical moment, Su Jinxiu dispatched a surprise force that successfully rescued the vanguard and turned the tide of the battle.
After a fierce battle, the Marquis's mansion finally achieved a decisive victory.
"We won!" the soldiers cheered.
However, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling knew that the battle was not over yet.
They also had to present the truth of the conspiracy to the imperial court and expose the enemy's crimes.
On their way back to the capital, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling encountered several assassination attempts.
"It seems the enemy still has remnants who want to stop us," Xiao Ling said.
Su Jinxiu's gaze was firm: "No matter what, we must bring the truth back to the capital."
Finally, after overcoming numerous hardships, they returned to the capital.
In the imperial court, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling recounted the truth of the conspiracy one by one.
Upon hearing this, the emperor was furious: "These treacherous officials and scoundrels dare to be so audacious!"
Subsequently, the imperial court launched a large-scale investigation, wiping out all the enemies involved in the conspiracy.
The Marquis's mansion has once again rendered great service and become a pillar of the imperial court.
But Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling understood that the struggle for power would never end, and they had to remain vigilant at all times in order to safeguard the peace of the Marquis's mansion and the country.
What challenges and tests will they face in the future?
