Chapter 597: Cage
At that time, Luo Liangsheng's army will become dumpling filling, and their Praetorian Guard strength and Turkic cavalry will definitely be able to take him down.
Although there is a huge difference in military strength, Bai Xiang has already thought about it, and those Turks let them go with Luo Liangsheng dog-eat-dog, and the Praetorian Guard is already small in number, so they will show it at the last moment. When the Turks and Luo Liangsheng's army were both defeated, he was able to use Luo Liangsheng's hand to kill the little emperor with the help of Luo Liangsheng, and then he would be able to rightfully ascend to the throne and watch the world for most of his life, and he could really be in his hands.
Bai Xiang's wishful thinking is very good, but although the Turks are nomads, they are still barbarians compared to the people of the Daling Dynasty, but there are many intelligent ones. And even if the Turks can't see his calculations, there is also a Luo Liangsheng, who will definitely be able to detect Bai Xiang's conspiracy.
At that time, he has a good plan, I have a wall ladder, Bai Xiang can use the Turks, and Luo Liangsheng can also expose Bai Xiang's conspiracy, so that he can't get his wish.
In fact, Luo Liangsheng had already understood his conspiracy, so Bai Xiang couldn't even send the news out. The entire capital was surrounded by iron buckets, and the people outside had no intention of coming in at all, and all the people who went out to deliver the news did not get out of the city gate.
Bai Xiang has completely become an ant on a hot pot, and compared to him, the little emperor seems much calmer.
In the past few days, he has been reorganizing the army. Although he doesn't learn anything on weekdays, he was born in the royal family, so he naturally has read a lot of military books since he was a child, and he may not be as good as Luo Liangsheng in marching and fighting. But I still know a little bit about military discipline, and of course I can also know some simple formations.
Although those Praetorian Guards have lived in the imperial city for a long time and are lazy, they were all top-notch figures back then. It's just that the spirit has been hollowed out by the wine-colored power, and there is no iron-blooded spiritual outlook of the soldiers.
In troubled times, the little emperor has been controlled by hatred, and the image of pure and generous people in the past has been pure, good, and cruel. Whether it is a person who does not obey military orders or cheats and cheats, he will be punished with beheading. In serious cases, they will also fall into the untouchable status, and they will not be able to hang the rank for generations. Even those parts of the training that they had to do every day because of their physical condition were completely expelled from the Praetorian Guard.
Although the methods of the little emperor were cruel. But I have to say that for those sake bags and rice bags, it is quite effective. The number of beheadings of the entire Praetorian Guard alone was already in the triple digits, and the number of expulsions was even more numerous. Until the end. The entire Praetorian Guard has dropped from 10,000 to less than 9,000, but its combat effectiveness has directly increased by several levels, and even Bai Xiang is impressed by the little emperor.
However, the growth of the little emperor made Bai Xiang feel in crisis. On his body, more and more of his brother's shadow appeared, and he took off his kind and simple coat, and the little emperor had begun to show his talents.
The message for help could not be sent. Every day, I watched the little emperor look more and more like an emperor, and his white appearance was like sitting on pins and needles. I can't wait to turn into a bird and cross the four walls. However, he also knew that even if he could really turn into a bird, it would be impossible to get out, because the carrier pigeons he released were not spared in the end.
And what's even more infuriating is that Luo Liangsheng is deliberately disintegrating his will. The pigeons that were shot and killed, he could have hidden them unknowingly, but he deliberately threw them into the city walls. Bai Xiang also counted, and a total of eleven carrier pigeons were released, one and a lot, all of them were arrows in the chest, and the letter tubes on their feet were empty.
However, of course, Bai Xiang will not explain his plans and discernments in such uncertain things. Regarding the matter of asking for help from the Turks, he did not directly put it in the letter tube and let the carrier pigeon take it out, but how to send the news out directly became his heart problem.
Just when he was at a loss and wanted to make a dangerous move, he went directly to fool the little emperor into driving the expedition in person, and he took the news out with the army by the way, but a guest came to Bai Xiangfu. This guest is none other than Bai Xiang's biological daughter, the eldest daughter Bai Yaxin.
When he saw Bai Yaxin, Bai Xiang's first reaction was, how could he forget his daughter!
Bai Yaxin can be the highest-level chess piece that Bai Xiang placed next to Luo Liangsheng, but it is also the most obvious chess piece, and what makes Bai Xiang even more headache is that the girl is outgoing, his daughter has liked Luo Liangsheng since she was a child, let alone let her betray him, I am afraid that when the time comes, it will not be necessary for her to stand on anyone's side.
So after Bai Xiang's first reaction, he immediately vetoed his own ideas.
Then, his second reaction was, how did Bai Yaxin get in?
The capital has been so tightly surrounded that not even a pigeon can fly out, but Bai Yaxin can appear here unconsciously, but none of the eyeliners he arranged at the city gate have been found.
This is his white-faced mansion, the last barrier to personal safety, but now it has been so easily broken into without anyone knowing. Although this person is his biological daughter and has a special identity, it still gives him a strong sense of crisis.
"Dad, I'm back."
Bai Yaxin didn't seem to notice Bai Xiang's inquiring eyes looking at her at all, but very calmly untied her black cloak and veil hood, and put it in the hands of the servant standing next to her, as if this time was only one of the countless times she went home.
“……”
Bai Xiang didn't answer, he really didn't know how to answer. Moreover, what made him feel defeated the most was that Bai Yaxin behaved so calmly, as if everyone around him was much calmer than him.
You must know that not being able to calm down means not being able to think calmly. This mental state made him feel that he was terrible now, let alone trying to figure out a way, his mind was a mess right now.
"Daddy?"
After enduring it again and again, Bai Xiang finally asked. Although he cherished his two daughters very much, he never thought of getting his daughters involved in these things, so whether it was Bai Yaxin or Bai Yarou, they didn't know anything about what Bai Xiang had secretly prepared for so many years.
Bai Xiang was stunned for a moment, a dry smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and then replied.
"Ah~Xin'er is back~ ...... you How did you get in? ”
Bai Yaxin screamed, and found that Bai Xiang did not respond, so she screamed again. It's just that her voice is still a little different from usual, without the ordinary joy and cordiality when she saw her family, and some are just a faint sadness. (To be continued.) )
