Murong Nan hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "What clues can you see?" ”

Liu Yu looked at Murong Nan: "You said that you came to me in an emergency, could it be that Xie Xianggong already has instructions there, let's say, how is he going to deal with this matter?" ”

Murong Nan smiled: "You are really smart, okay, you guessed right, the Xie family has already come to the Flying Eagle Messenger, and I came to you for this purpose." ”

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Let me guess Xie Xianggong's disposition, is this matter no longer pursued, the Zhu family brothers will be handed over to Huan Yi to deal with by themselves, and the marriage matter will be stopped, let us escort Liu Tingyun back to Jiankang City?" ”

Murong Nan shook his head: "It's not us who escort it, it's Huan Xuan who escorts it." ”

Liu Yu's face changed: "Let Huan Xuan escort you, why is this?" ”

Murong Nan looked at Liu Yu with a smile, and there was a hint of intriguing meaning in his eyes: "What do you say?" ”

Liu Yu pondered for a moment and nodded: "I understand, this time Xie Xianggong did not pursue the matter, but he knew that it was Huan Xuan who made a move and destroyed the marriage between the two families, so in order to avoid the Huan family from making trouble again in the future, let Huan Xuan return to Beijing and control it by himself, which is equivalent to having one more hostage in his hand to restrain the Huan family in Jingzhou." ”

Murong Nan smiled: "Smart, but do you think Huan Chong will lead this nephew away?" ”

Liu Yu hooked the corners of his mouth: "No matter what you say, Huan Xuan is also the son of Huan Wen before his death, after all, Huan Chong is only in charge of Jingzhou as a younger brother, and after Huan Xuan becomes an adult, he still has to return it to him, otherwise, the people of Jingzhou will not be attached to the people, and there will be chaos." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yu sighed: "Listening to what Huan Xuan meant, it seems that he is also a little worried that Huan Chong will not return Jingzhou to himself in the future, so he hopes that I will serve him alone, not for the Huan family." Maybe this time, it was Huan Xuan's personal decision, and it was not Huan Chong's instructions to stir up trouble here. ”

Murong Nan nodded: "You're right. Therefore, Xie An asked Huan Xuan to go to Jiankang, but also to control this restless guy, so as not to destroy the overall situation of resisting Qin. ”

Liu Yu Zhengse said: "What about the 3,000 people and horses brought by Huan Xuan?" ”

Murong Nan said with a smile: "Xie Xianggong said, let General Zhu Xuan continue to take them back to Jingzhou to fight against Qin, while Huan Xuan will bring a small number of guards and send Liu Tingyun back to Jiankang." He will greet Huan Chong in this matter, and presumably Huan Xuan will not dare to violate it. If it is really what you said, Huan Xuan will do his own thing, then Huan Chong will not let him return to Jingzhou at this time. ”

Liu Yu nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "Actually, if Huan Xuan is not here, these three thousand men and horses will be the help of guarding Shouchun, but I don't think they will obey the command of others, so forget it." By the way, Brother Murong, this marriage failed, is Shouchun ready to give up? ”

Murong Nan shook his head: "No, Xie Xianggong's letter said that Shouchun must be garrisoned as originally planned, even if Huan Yi does not send reinforcements, we must defend it, General Hu Bin's five thousand troops are already gathering, and they will be able to reach Shouchun in three days." ”

Liu Yu's face changed: "Three days? Isn't it late? Huaibei may be directly abandoned, and the iron cavalry of the Qin army may be able to reach the outside of Shouchun City in one day. ”

Speaking of this, he hooked the corners of his mouth: "Moreover, aren't Yang Qiu's two thousand men and horses already here, I'm afraid that they are here to fight for the Qin army!" ”

Murong Nan smiled slightly: "These are not things you have to think about, Xie Xianggong said, you and Miss Wang, as well as my two hundred subordinates, can also go back to Guangling." ”

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "No, this is not the time to go back to Guangling, since Xie Xianggong said that he would protect this place, then I should stay and do my part." ”

Murong Nan's face changed: "Liu Yu, are you crazy?" Can this Shouchun be kept? There are only 2,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and there are more than 2,000 soldiers and generals outside the city. ”

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "First deal with the Di army outside the city, then strengthen the city defense, and fight to the death!" ”

Murong Nan sneered: "Solution? Easy to say, how do you solve it? The infantry in the city is not of great use, and my two hundred elite cavalry will not be wasted in such a senseless battle, and you will kill more than two thousand enemy troops by yourself? ”

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "No, maybe, there is a better way to solve this problem." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief and strode towards the alley: "Okay, Brother Murong, thank you for chatting so much with me, now I'm going to see General Xu, maybe, I can see Huan Xuan for the last time." You escort Miaoyin back to Guangling, this is not your war, I have no right to let you stay. ”

Murong Nan stood in place in a daze, looking at Liu Yu's distant figure, biting his lip tightly, for a long time, when Liu Yu's figure disappeared around the corner of the alley, he shook his head: "You must be crazy!" ”

Shouchun, Thorn Mansion.

A general in his forties, with armor all over his body, was sitting behind the big case, his brows were deeply locked, and above the hall, except for him, only Xu Yuanlang, who was standing on the side of the case, was also deeply locked, and the candlelight on the case, with the breeze blowing, was shaking slightly, reflecting the sad faces of the two, relatively speechless.

After a long time, the general who was sitting behind the assassin case sighed, raised his head and said: "Yuen Long, I'm afraid that this Shouchun City will not be able to defend it, and I don't know why the retreat order of Lord Assassin Shi is not at this time!" ”

Xu Yuanlang looked at this general, it was the Shouchun guard, his brother Xu Yuanxi, he hooked the corners of his mouth: "Brother, don't worry, after all, the incident happened suddenly, and Lord Assassin Shi probably has to figure out the situation before he can decide, after all, Shouchun is an important town in Huainan, and it cannot be discarded!" ”

Xu Yuan said hatefully: "Don't give up, you have to send reinforcements to defend!" Now there are only 2,000 soldiers, and there are no less than 2,000 Di troops outside the city, in case they have ghosts in their hearts, they are afraid that they can capture Shouchun City without the Qin army. ”

Xu Yuanlang's brows furrowed: "Then what should I do?" The reinforcements nearby are only Zhu Xuan's department, who has just set off, and they have only been gone for half an hour, do you want to chase them back now? ”

Xu Yuanxi said angrily: "People are Jingzhou Army, how can they listen to us." If it really doesn't work, let's just withdraw first. Doesn't that Liu Yu like to be a hero, just let him defend the city after breaking off! ”

Liu Yu's voice sounded calmly outside the door: "This is exactly what the humble post means, but according to the order of the Great Jin Dynasty and the order of the superiors, those who abandon the city and lose their land will be beheaded, and General Xu is asked to think twice!" ”
