Seeing that the situation was critical, Xiahou Jin at this moment could no longer deceive his heart.

Looking at Tan Li's arrogance, he first ordered the left and right to stand by, and then unconsciously lowered his head, and suddenly asked, "What is the best plan for sir?" ”

Tan Li sighed lightly, and also bowed down and said, "General Xiahou has been a general for many years, and he should have known that this battle is destined to be fruitless, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will only become an outcast in the end!" ”

Xiahou Jin hurriedly led him to sit down, bowed down three times in succession, and his tone was sincere and sad, "The matter has come to this, whether it is retreat or battle, it has become a dead end." I hope Mr. will save me! ”

Tan Li nodded, "For today's plan, I have to meet the enemy on the one hand, and on the other hand, I will send troops and horses back to Guazhou!" ”

"I brought no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, but they are already the main force of all the city defense in Guazhou. Now that the enemy army is so strong, how can it be easy to disperse the forces? What's more......" Speaking of this, Xiahou Jin suddenly closed his mouth, just sighed and lowered his head.

"What's more?" Tan Li smiled slightly and asked, "It seems that my guess is right, Your Majesty ...... him"

Xiahou Jin raised his head suddenly, and hurriedly interrupted, "This matter is very important, Mr. must not speculate!" ”

Although Xia Houjin didn't say it, it was a tacit acquiescence. Tan Li smiled and nodded, then straightened up, and asked again, "The general feels that in the eyes of His Majesty, is Guazhou or Daijun important?" ”

"This ......" Xiahou Jin was puzzled, but he still replied after thinking about it seriously, "At the moment, it is naturally important to represent the county, after all, ......"

Tan Li shook his head, with a look of control on his face, "It's not important!" Or in other words - the most important thing is that there is no Nanda Camp! ”

For this, Xiahou Jin knows better than anyone that the purpose of leading his army here is also for this. It's just that he suddenly said it from the mouth of Tan Li, the chief secretary of the Nanying Army, but it was still extremely embarrassing.

Xiahou Jin had no intention of refutating, but asked curiously, "Since Mr. knew this, why is he willing to sit here and wait for death?" ”

The corners of Tan Li's mouth rose slightly, and his face was light and light, "This is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words, in the final analysis, it is the same as why the general would rather stay in Beijing as a hostage than be born without a subordinate!" ”

"Loyalty?"

Xiahou Jin secretly admired in his heart, but his face couldn't help but be sad, and he sighed to himself, "If Han Xiaozhi hadn't been assassinated, he might be able to solve this crisis according to his ability!" ”

Saying that the unintentional listener had a heart, Tan Li was stunned, and his eyes widened and he asked, "What did you say?" The assassination of the general?! ”

Being scared by Tan Li's sudden drink, Xiahou Jin was also frightened, and after calming down, he nodded and said, "You Nan Daying don't even know about this?" This was a few days ago, and the perpetrator was said to be a woman, so Han Xiaozhi's life was unharmed. ”

Tan Li's whole body trembled in surprise, his eyes rolled, and he was doing all kinds of calculations in his mind. "Tell me how long ago it happened!"

"How long?" Xiahou Jin seemed to smile, "How can I know this?" I also learned this news from His Majesty, and then he ordered Ouyang Han to lead the southern camp, and I naturally led the army here. ”

"So it was planned a long time ago?" Tan Li felt his back soaked, and muttered to himself, "Is it just a coincidence......

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Tan Li's expression was wrong, Xiahou Jin hurriedly stepped forward and comforted with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

Ignoring anything else, Tan Li suddenly grabbed Xiahou Jin's arm and asked sharply, "Do you know the identity of the person who assassinated him?" ”

Xiahou Jin was taken aback, seeing his solemn expression, and had a premonition that this matter was not simple, so he thought about it seriously for a while, and then said, "It is said that she is a princess of the former Song Dynasty, and I heard that she also knew Han Xiaozhi." Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get into him so easily and assassinate him......"

"Princess of the Song Kingdom? Song people ......" Tan Li slowly let go of the hands that were holding Xiahou Jin's arms, and muttered repeatedly, "It's actually a Song ......"

Xiahou Jin nodded, "It is said that the princess of the Song Kingdom has been taken into the dungeon of Jingzhou Yamen, and it is estimated that she will be beheaded in a short time!" ”

"I'm afraid it's not so easy to ......" Tan Li lowered his head with a gloomy face, and his fingers were rhythmically tapping on the table, "If the general is killed, maybe the perpetrator can be brought to justice; But at this moment, it is the general who escaped death! Then I'm afraid there will be more storms next......"

"What do you mean?" Xiahou Jin looked dazed, and he didn't know what Tan Li was talking nonsense.

Tan Li didn't explain, just leaned back and leaned back on the back of the chair, sweating profusely and snorting out. After relieving himself, Fang continued, "Then it is even more time to draw out the military horses to return to Guazhou!" ”

Xiahou Jin couldn't keep up with Tan Li's rhythm, and was made like a cloud by his sudden words, and he couldn't figure it out. "Didn't Xu Feng lead his troops to Guazhou to help? 20,000 horses should be enough to deal with it! ”

Tan Li's face suddenly rose, and his eyes widened, "What if the other party should be inside and outside!" ”

"Inside and outside?" Xiahou Jin was already at a loss for the second monk at this moment, and the more he talked, the more chaotic he became.

"I'm just speculating," Tan Li leaned forward to explain to him when he saw that Xiahou was puzzled, "If the original purpose of the person behind you is to destroy the Southern Camp and the life of the general. So why did he release Xu Feng's subordinates, who were still fighting in the trapped beasts, at this moment, and let them rush to the aid of Guazhou, while he recklessly waved his army here? ”

Xiahou Jin frowned, still shaking his head in confusion.

Seeing this, Tan Li still patiently explained, "What if the person behind you has already reached an agreement with the coalition forces, one of which is to cede Guazhou, but the condition is that they exterminate the Nan Daying?" Does that make sense? ”

"So Mr. thinks that they deliberately let Xu Feng's military horses go back to Guazhou?" Xiahou nodded and asked hesitantly, "But what does this have to do with Han Xiaozhi's assassination and that princess of the Song Kingdom?" ”

Tan Li took a deep breath and grabbed the table with five fingers, "Xia Fan, who led the troops to enter Beijing, is a Song man!" If all this was calculated a long time ago......"

When Xia Houjin heard this, he couldn't help but tremble, and almost sat on the ground with his legs limp. The pale face said, "If ...... If so...... Then even if Xu Feng recaptures Guazhou, your Nanda camp is still a dead end! ”

Tan Li couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Xiahou Jin's appearance, "But if Guazhou is lost, you and the brothers in this camp will also be dead!" ”

Xiahou Jin suddenly bent down and arched his hand, and said with a straight face, "Sir, please forgive me for being blunt, even if you recapture Guazhou, how can you face these more than 100,000 enemy troops?" ”

"I don't know ......" Tan Li didn't want to deceive him, but he couldn't do anything, after all, he could only block it with soldiers at the moment, and there was no other way to do it.

So, he sighed, "It is Wei Ning, the commander of the coalition army, who is going to Guazhou to besiege him, if he can defeat him, he may be able to save the current crisis......"

That being said...... But I always felt too risky. After all, in case Lin Shang's department was red-eyed, he ran directly to the Daijun behind me......" Xiahou Jin said this, his whole body trembled, and he didn't dare to say any more.

"No, it won't!" Tan Li waved his hand, "Now that an agreement has been reached, Lin Shang will definitely not tear it." He is not stupid, he understands the truth of cold lips and teeth! ”

Seeing that he was so sure of what he said, Xiahou Jin lowered his head and pondered for a long time as if he believed it, weighing all the pros and cons of this move in his mind. Suddenly asked Tan Li, "What is Wei Ning's personality?" If Guazhou City is broken, will he choose to kill? ”

Tan Li was stunned by his question, and then smiled, "The general was once called his 'butcher', and the reason is self-evident......"

"Butcher?"

Hearing this familiar title, Xiahou Jin suddenly remembered a past incident he had heard many years ago, so his eyes widened and he hurriedly asked, "Isn't that the general of the Northern Tang Dynasty?" ”

Tan Li looked at him with a little surprise, "You actually know about this past?" It was this person who was good, and later fled to Chen because of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty. Speaking of this, Tan Li smiled secretly, "He also has a close friend in the Tang Kingdom, and this person is Lin Xiong, the 'Tiger Mighty Zhonglang General' of my Da Xu now!" ”

"Lin Xiong?" Xiahou Jin's eyes widened, he took a few steps back, and said, "How do you know so much?" You...... You are not Han Xiaozhi's person! ”

Seeing that he was panicked, Tan Li was extremely calm, and asked with a smile, "When did I say that I am the person of the Great General?" ”

After Xia Hou listened, he remembered that Ouyang Han had told him: Now most of the people in Nanying are the henchmen sent by the people in the court, who are used to monitor Han Yu's every move at all times.

"Then you ......" Xiahou Jin looked at Tan Li with a calm demeanor in front of him with a gloomy face, frowned and asked sharply, "What kind of idea did you have!" ”

Tan Li laughed and got up, and slowly walked in front of Xiahou Jin, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, "Just like you are now, since you can't help yourself, why bother asking?" ”

Xiahou Jin was getting more and more confused at the moment, and he couldn't figure out Tan Li's true intentions, but he had an inexplicable reverence for Han Xiaozhi. I secretly admired that he could still deal with it calmly under so many eyeliners - how strong is this confidence for himself?

"So this is Han Hyozhi? The gods and ghosts are unpredictable, Han Xiaozhi! ”

Thinking of this, Xiahou Jin's eyes suddenly became resolute, and he said to Tan Li, "If Han Xiaozhi is here, what will he do?" ”

"This ......" Tan Li shook his head with a smile, "The general's soldiers are like ghosts, how can I predict them from mediocre people?" It's just that the best way I can think of at the moment is to resist on the one hand, and on the other hand, to send troops and horses back to Guazhou. Therefore, I guess the general will probably be like this......"

"That's good!" Xiahou Jin's eyes were like torches, staring at Tan Li tightly, "Since this is the case, then proceed according to this method!" It just so happens that I also want to know how much difference I have between myself and Han Xiaozhi! ”
