"I have heard the name of '100 million master books' for a long time." The Auxiliary Marquis then straightened back and saluted.

Li Ru's face was pale: "Confucian, today I can finally repay the grace of the lord." ”

"I want to hear about it." They are all wise people, they must hold up the scene, and they can't admit defeat easily.

Li Ru sat side behind Liu Bei and stretched out his hand to add a cup to the lord: "This is a plan to hide from the sky and cross the sea." ”

"Could it be that escorting us all the way here is a trick." Fu Guohou asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes." Li Ru gently put down the wooden spoon and said, "I'm not here to ask Shache about the crime." It's a shame before the snow. Ten years ago, Shule killed the king and became independent. Liangzhou assassinated Shi Xingbing's crusade, but refused to admit his guilt. Put the great Han Tianwei as nothing. Such traitors will be destroyed to set an example! ”

Only then did the Marquis of Fuguo wake up: "It turned out to be for Shule." ”

"As the saying goes, 'profit is taken from the near, and harm is separated from the distance'. There is a cloud in the art of war: 'long-distance and close attack', Confucianism has never heard of 'close and long-range attack'. Shule and Shache are next to each other. The two countries are no more than 500 miles apart. Shache, on the other hand, is two thousand miles away from Qiuzi. If I were the king of Shache, would I be more afraid of Shule or more afraid of turtles? ”

Li Ru's meaning is very clear. It is advantageous to attack the close enemy first, but it is harmful to go beyond the close enemy to attack the distant enemy first. The reason is simple. In terms of war logistics, the farther the distance, the higher the cost; The longer the supply line, the easier it is to cut off the grain route. And the expedition is outside, in case the neighboring countries betray the alliance and sneak attack, and the return of aid is not in time, the country will be destroyed.

Seeing that the face of the auxiliary marquis was pale. Li Ru continued: "So, before the prisoner cart went west, the lord sent someone to tie up the chariot. Promise heavy profits and secretly form an alliance. He also asked Shache to send an envoy to Shule, falsely claiming to join forces to resist the enemy. There was a gap between Shule and the Great Han. And he had to kill the king to stand on his own, and he was anxious all day long. He hit it off with Shache and formed a coalition army. In order to induce Shule to send troops, it was also to strengthen the courage of the king of Shache. Then he led out the beggar department Xianbei and formed a three-family alliance. Begging Xianbei hides in the green mountains, and his whereabouts are erratic. and has a blood feud with the Han. The king of Shule had no doubt that he had him. However, the so-called begging Xianbei is a bald Xianbei pretending to be a plan to steal beams and change pillars! Shule Wang Guo poured out of the nest. The three joined forces, one was to attack and kill us to prevent future troubles; The second is to save the auxiliary marquis from escaping from the cage and send a favor. But they were surrounded by the other two, and only a few hundred horsemen returned. Unexpectedly, the history of Peng took advantage of the fact that King Shule led his troops away, and the garrison was empty, so he had already joined forces with the outside and captured Zhenzhong City. At this time, all of Hede's cronies were already prisoners. ”

Rao is Mount Tai collapsed in front, and the auxiliary marquis who did not change his color was also sweating profusely.

Li Ru made up another knife: "This plan can be successful, and King Shache has made great contributions." It was the presence of King Shache that convinced King Shule. It was his cover up again, which made it natural for the bald Xianbei to pretend to be begging Xianbei.

From start to finish. Li Ru didn't mention one person, the Queen Mother of Qiuzi.

However, this is what the Auxiliary Marquis wants to know the most.

Liu Bei then said: "Earlier, I ordered someone to spread the rumor that I wanted to kill the queen mother to prevent future troubles. It is to scare the snake. Under the fear of the queen mother, she went to death row and talked to you secretly, wanting to fight against the water and fight back. I also threatened the life of the Queen Mother, and made the King of Shache conspire with this plan. Now that it has been successful, the Queen Mother's life is worry-free. Presumably, this is also the Auxiliary Marquis is happy to see it come to fruition. ”

"Xie Changshi." The Auxiliary Marquis saluted solemnly.

After drinking the wine in the cup, I suddenly heard the cheers downstairs. When I looked sideways, I saw a convoy of prisoner vans slowly driving into the inner city, lined up under the raised platform that had been built. Inside the car were all Taiping Christians hiding in the 'auspicious world' shop.

"Changshi knows that I have a personal relationship with the Queen Mother?" Although he was apprehensive in his heart, the Marquis of Fu still asked. But he was afraid that Liu Bei would answer him, 'It was the Queen Mother who made meritorious service and worked for herself, in exchange for her life'.

"I don't know." Liu Bei shook his head calmly: "I only know that the Queen Mother must have an alliance in the Qiuci court." It was expected that at the moment of life and death, the queen mother would definitely show her feet, but unexpectedly, she was an auxiliary marquis. ”

"Long history is true to the gods." The so-called smart is mistaken by the smart. The Auxiliary Marquis then threw himself in the towel: "The reason why this plan can be succeeded in the long history is because I am concerned about the safety of the Queen Mother. Unwilling is the second one. After 20 years of lying on the salary, when he saw that he could become famous, he failed completely. If you are an ordinary person, you will only confess your sins and surrender to the law. And people like me, who think they are wise, think about how to put their lives on the spot, turn the danger into a disaster, and then win a game. Seeing the Queen Mother on death row, she thought it was a godsend. Although I also have doubts in my heart, and I am lucky to think that there is no endless way, what if I succeed? I want to give it a go. In order to be able to turn the sky with one hand. There is an obsession in the heart, and demons breed. One wrong step, one wrong step. ”

Seeing Li Ru's embarrassed face, the Auxiliary Marquis sighed: "Under the command of Changshi, there are many heroes. It is my religion, and the enemy of life and death is also. ”

I listened to the commotion downstairs again.

There was another convoy, slowly moving in. The person who got off the car, the Hou Yan of the auxiliary country could not know. It is the father of the Queen Mother of Qiuzi, and the current King of Shache is also.

Then he realized: "Changshi is going to fake the hand of King Shache? ”

Liu Bei nodded: "When the time comes, King Shache will serve as the auxiliary marquis." ”

The Marquis of Fuguo nodded happily: "The prince is a good means." ”

Liu Bei replied: "I promised King Shache to save the Queen Mother from death, and promised her a rich and glorious life." Since he was the hand of the fake Shache King, he extinguished the rumors. Since then, the Queen Mother and the Auxiliary Marquis have nothing to do with each other. Shache and Qiuzi got married, and Shule didn't dare to make a mistake. The momentum of the South Road is complete, and the Silk Road can be unimpeded for ten years. "Historically, Shache, which was weakening day by day, was finally annexed by Shule.

"Alas......" Fu Guohou sighed, and there was nothing to say.

The three of them raised their glasses frequently, and drank until they were half drunk. Shi Jian rushed to report that the time had come.

Liu Bei got up to send him off. Li Ru also bowed to respect. The Marquis of the Auxiliary State reached the ground, and this came out of nowhere.

Go down to the high-rise building and go out of the capital. Pick up (shè) steps down, and then ascend to the execution platform.

Kneel in a row of fellow peacekeepers.

Seeing that the left and right sides were covered in bloody clothes, he asked, "Why is this so?" ”

"That night, not long after the Queen Mother left, we were all arrested by Changshi. They couldn't stand the heavy torture to extract a confession, and they were worried about the safety of their families, so they confessed to each other. The left-handed man replied with a miserable laugh.

The Auxiliary Marquis was finally relieved. Everything proves that it was not the Queen Mother who betrayed her.

I saw the king of Shache coming with a plate.

"The erector is not enough and the plan." Then he gladly raised his glass and drank it all.

Smile at Jiuquan.

borrowed a clairvoyant mirror to glimpse the expression of the auxiliary marquis when he was dying. In particular, there is a remnant of warmth in his eyes. Li Ru finally came to his senses.

Why is it that it is obviously the queen mother who gave everything, and volunteered to go to death row to deceive the trust of the auxiliary marquis, so that everything fell into place. The lord tried his best to cover it up, so as not to let the auxiliary marquis understand the flies and dogs behind it, the world is hot and cold, and the people are cold and warm.

With a touch of warmth, as well as the bond to his lover, he smiled at Jiuquan.

Lord. True benevolence also.

With this in mind, I suddenly saw Liu Bei Linxuan waving his hand.

The executioners stepped forward in unison. The sword fell in his hand, and the remaining thieves were all beheaded.

For a while, the blood column soared to the sky.
