Seeing that Li Hua only smiled bitterly and sighed lightly after hearing his words, Xi Zihui, who was full of vibrations, immediately continued:

"General, although I, Xizihui, am dull, I think I have a good way of reading people, and this is also the only skill I can survive in this Hexi County and hold a bull's ear.

It is not a lie that the general's talent is better than that of the middle and left, but the general also has the weakness of the general.

The general is benevolent, and I have learned a lot of stories about the general from the general's subordinate generals these days, and I have witnessed the process of the general's punishment for the crime of disobeying the general's orders.

So Xizi saw that the only weakness of the general was the word benevolence.

But does the general know that in this long world and the firmament of history, who has achieved great things is not a ruthless person?

Whether he really wants to be ruthless or not, history has made them make that final choice.

I heard that the general's leg injury was caused by the lynching of the right man, but the general is benevolent and treats people with sincerity is also the cause of the disaster.

The general occupied the counties in the northwest of Hebei and moved the plate of the bigger man on the right, and the general dared to take risks alone and jump into the tiger's den, didn't he see the right watch as an enemy, and didn't think that the right watch would be vicious?

I know that the general was born with a good heart, and it is by virtue of this that he has won the love of the generals and soldiers under his command, so it is naturally extremely difficult for the general to choose to change, and the general is afraid that he is even more reluctant to make changes.

Then in the future, under the rule of the general, this hateful thing will be done by Xizi. ”

After Xi Zihui finished speaking, his eyes met Lihua's stunned eyes, and after a long time, he heard Lihua smile and say:

"Doctor Xizi is really calculating."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Lihua suddenly stroked his palms and laughed, and while laughing, he called the soldiers outside the hall and pushed him out of the hall.

"Let's go, Doctor Xizi, you've been fishing for so long, it's time to close the net."

Xi Zihui watched the bamboo chair disappear into the hall and muttered:

"It's not Xizi's calculation, it's Xizi's choice. Just as Dongguo and the Pan family chose Qi State, and Cao Ang, Qiao Bin and others chose the right greater, this is also the choice of the general.

It seems that the general has also thought about what I said today, but the general has been hesitating and choosing to escape. ”

There was a hint of excitement in Xi Zihui's eyes, and then he left the hall in the direction in which he left.

There was a light snow in the dark sky outside the hall, and I was afraid that the hour was almost up.

......

One night later, the sky was bright.

Zhu Lihua sat in the meeting hall in the party mansion, looking at the people in the hall with blazing eyes.

At this moment, compared with the previous days, there were only a few nobles left in the hall and some personal guards who were always with Lihua, and Gao Yunce, Tang Yuan and other generals were not here. So in the hall that seemed a little deserted at first glance, a group of people looked at Xi Zihui, who had a solemn face, and suddenly stood next to Zhu Lihua and showed various looks, because they didn't know when this Xi Zihui became so close to Zhu Lihua.

But these nobles didn't dwell too much on this matter, because

Only then did they learn that the 20,000 troops of Qi encountered an ambush in Shangdang Nancheng in the first battle last night, and not only killed one general and four or five military marquis among the generals of Qi State, but also left nearly 10,000 corpses.

Therefore, this battle greatly boosted the hearts of the people and the army in Shangdang City, and these nobles naturally had a beaming look.

But when they returned to the council hall, the nobles realized that it seemed that last night's battle was more than the Battle of the South Gate.

"Doctor Xizi, can the nobles who were all together last night be dealt with?"

Zhu Lihua didn't look at Xi Zihui beside him, but still looked at the other nobles in the hall and said slowly.

Xi Zihui knew that Lihua wanted to intimidate the nobles in the hall, and at the same time let himself show his attitude in front of everyone. So after he smiled slightly, he took two steps forward as if he had already made a decision, and Zheng Sheng said:

"General.

Last night, it was found out that a total of nine Tongqi nobles in the city, led by Cao Ang, Qiao Bin, Xi Yuan, and Wang Mao, were killed on the spot by the lowly leaders when they received the Qi army into the city, and none of them survived. His family members were arrested by the lowly leaders after the Qi army attacked the city last night, and they are now all in the government prison. How to dispose of it is also at the disposal of the general. ”

After hearing this, Lu Lihua nodded slightly, and a cold feeling suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he said:

"These nobles don't know how to repay the country's kindness, but they collude with the enemy country at both ends, which is really an unforgivable crime, Doctor Xizi will deal with them according to the laws of Qin."

Xizihui said "Woo" when he heard this, and then retreated.

He knew in his heart that Zhu Lihua only said that he would let him deal with the families of these rebellious nobles according to Qin Law, but Qin Law seemed to only say that traitors would be punished, but there was no clear law on how to deal with the families of traitors, so there were still many ways to do it.

Moreover, the relationship between the nobles in Shangdang City is intertwined, and these nobles standing in the hall at this moment are inseparable from those nobles who have been punished for treason, as well as the Dongguo and Pan families who have long defected to the camp of the Qi army, so how to deal with this matter is indeed an extremely particular matter.

Xi Zihui can also guess a few points of his intentions, after he kills the first evil, the nobles in the city will undoubtedly be more or less disgusted with Xi Zihui in their hearts, but if they can do something about these family members, then it is very easy to make these nobles grateful to Xi Zihui again.

Therefore, after Xi Zihui said this, he had a deeper understanding of the cleverness of Lihua in his heart to win people's hearts.

After the two of them finished speaking, they saw that all the nobles in the hall looked at each other. They witnessed the thrill of the city being first broken through the south corner of the city by the "Qi" army last night, and then experienced the shock of the Qi army leading the city to put the Qi army into the pre-set "urn", lighting a fire, and with the help of the north wind, the Qi army cried and cried for the shock.

Now seeing that Xi Zihui has obviously become a person in Lihua, how among them still don't understand the current situation, and then think about the scene of being woken up last night and escaping from home in a hurry, everyone's body and mind began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Little plague", sure enough, it is the plague that came to the world.

The south of the city is inhabited by all the nobles in the city, and how many people have been killed by this fire, there is a trace of confusion and fear in everyone's eyes.

It's just that after a while, everyone stopped thinking about it, after all, the people who were burned to death were all self-inflicted traitors and their families, as well as those Qi troops who entered the city, and themselves

Aren't the families of these nobles around them rescued in advance?

But everyone knows that this extremely ruthless poisonous plan must have been planned by the young man in front of him, who was as white as jade. Otherwise, last night, some people went to various houses to lead people to escape, some people went to various places to light fires and set fires, and there were large groups of soldiers and horses blocking the intersection in a menacing manner.

Fortunately, before the Qi people besieged the city, these nobles either donated or buried their belongings, or sent them elsewhere, so a fire only burned down a few houses, and did not suffer much damage. And the pain in everyone's hearts is not so deep compared to the Qi people who invaded Shangdang City to loot and settle accounts after the autumn after the autumn when they invaded Shangdang City, and they didn't know the current affairs.

The nobles who can stand in the council hall at this moment are indeed desperately choosing to follow the Qin State, and the people who believe in Zhu Lihua are right.

This is not the same as Xizi Huike.

Last night, Xi Zihui was shocked to find that not only did he make arrangements for last night's battle, but also made arrangements that made him feel a little surprised.

I thought that Lihua would raid the Qi army outside the city, so it would inevitably make the Qi people taste some hardships, and if the Qi army failed to attack the city and escaped, he could implement the plan of killing Wei Huan and capturing Gongzisi. But he never expected that Lu Lihua would make even bolder arrangements and plans.

He wanted to let the army into the city and then burn the party.

Standing at the head of the city last night, Xi Zihui witnessed the north wind gathering a fire, violently sweeping across the south of Shangdang City, illuminating half of the sky between Shangdang City. He listened to the neighing of countless people and horses that seemed to come from his ears, screaming and screaming miserably. Xi Zihui's face was pale and her mouth grew up, staring at Zhu Lihua, whose face was illuminated by the firelight, for a whole night.

On this night, he was always considered to be a kind-hearted house, and suddenly turned into a strange god of death, he sat on the bamboo chair and looked at everything that happened in the distance, but his figure looked particularly hideous under the light of the fire.

In fact, he didn't know that the decision made by Lihua also reminded him of the tragic situation of the Crow Xian camp in Henan in the Qing Dynasty, so if Lihua could make other choices, how could he dare to try to uncover his scars.

But the situation forced me to do so.

The Rong people and the Qi army will fight a decisive battle in Gyeonggi.

After this battle, once the Rong people win, it is very likely that they will choose to return to the division to defeat themselves and consolidate the rear.

Although Zhu Lihua also understands that comparing himself with Zhao Zhihai in Wenshui and the last mobile main force of Qi in Xieyuguan will not be the focus of the Rong people's attention, he must not take the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Jiuxian lightly to gamble.

Therefore, it is particularly important to end the war of the Shangdang as soon as possible and prepare to deal with the attack of the Rong people.

When Lihua learned that the Qi army was going to attack the party at night with the nobles in the city, he knew that it was time for him to make a decision.

Although the defenders of the city had suffered few losses in the bitter fighting of the past two months, there were less than 10,000 men left. Yesterday, on the one hand, he sent someone to contact Wei Mu and others, who had left the party a long time ago, and on the other hand, he thought hard and chose such an idea to burn the party.

After all, his own soldiers and horses are at an absolute disadvantage compared to the number of the entire Qi army, and even compared with the number of soldiers and horses that sneak attacked the party, it is absolutely inferior.
