Chapter 217: The Picture is Poor and Dagger
Looking at Li Haochen's inquiring expression, Fang Xuanling did not sell Guanzi, but explained directly: "General, do you think that if the prince has an accident in Henan Province, who should be the first person to be suspected, and what is the prince coming to Henan Province for?" If the crown prince is missing, who is in the best interest on the surface? ”
Li Haochen couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, although he had seen strong winds and waves, he still felt a chill in his back at this moment, and cold sweat flowed.
Fang Xuanling was right, the prince had an accident in Henan Province, and he should be the first to be suspected. The prince originally came to Henan Province to check him? If the crown prince is missing, it will be in his best interest on the surface. This strategy of killing two birds with one stone is really vicious.
Li Haochen took a deep breath, looked at Fang Xuanling and said, "Since Mr. Fang has analyzed so thoroughly, I don't know if Mr. Fang knows who is the mastermind behind this scene?" In fact, Li Haochen already had his own thoughts in his heart, but he was not very sure, and he wanted to hear Fang Xuanling's analysis before he asked.
Fang Xuanling showed Li Haochen a confident smile that was under control, and continued: "If the subordinates expected it to be good, the person behind this scene must be Li Shimin!" ”
Li Haochen listened to Fang Xuanling's affirmative reply, nodded, obviously thinking the same as himself, so he didn't continue to say anything, but fell into deep contemplation.
Zhang Han listened to the two of them start playing dumb riddles again, and when he saw that Li Haochen stopped talking, he scratched the back of his head, looked at Fang Xuanling and said, "Military advisor, on what basis do you say that Li Shimin is the one behind the troublemaker?" Can you talk to me Lao Zhang? ”
Fang Xuanling looked at Zhang Han, who was eager to learn, and smiled slightly: "You really want to know?" ”
Zhang Han nodded wildly like a chicken pecking rice, Fang Xuanling looked at Zhang Han so cute, and his heart that wanted to tease Zhang Han faded, so he said: "I just explained that the vested interest in the disappearance of the prince on the face is the general, but in fact, the vested interest is Li Shimin. The floods in Henan Province for many years were caused by Li Shimin, and at the same time, Wang Hu was killed by adults because he secretly contacted Li Shimin with the intention of rebellion. Huang Gang also fled to Yunzhou, if all this is found out, I am afraid that the imperial court will send troops to crusade against Li Shimin, which is also what the four of us are worried about when we come here today. But if the crown prince is kidnapped, it will be different. First of all, the prince could not find out the truth, and secondly, the lord went to the court to explain the whole story, because the prince was in the hands of Li Shimin, and the court would be afraid and would not dare to send troops easily. In addition, they can also bribe the important ministers of the court, saying that the adults are the murderers of the crown prince, disturbing the public opinion, and the general may also be in danger at that time. So no matter how you look at this matter, it is the most beneficial to Li Shimin, so I decided that it must be the prince kidnapped by Li Shimin. ”
Zhang Han listened to Fang Xuanling's words and nodded as if he didn't understand, thoughtful, not speechless.
Li Haochen was thinking about things just now, and didn't care about the conversation between Fang Xuanling and Zhang Han. At this moment, he came back to his senses, and just wanted to say something, he looked at you Zhang Han and couldn't help laughing: "Zhang Han, you are a big old man, and you have also started to play deep?" What kind of cultural person is pretending? As soon as the words fell, Li Haochen continued with a blank face: "Hurry up, don't pretend in front of Benhou!" I've got something for you to do! ”
Zhang Han pretended to be contemplative a second ago, and when he heard Li Haochen say that he had something for him to do, he hurriedly stood upright, and then said: "Please give the general's orders, and the general will complete the task!" ”
Li Haochen looked at Zhang Han, nodded and said, "Zhang Han listens to the order!" ”
Hearing Li Haochen's long-lost general order, Zhang Han's body trembled slightly because of excitement, but he didn't hesitate at all, and hurriedly said: "The end will be!" ”
"Order you to lead the camp to guard Henan Road and various key roads, but if you find anyone with suspicious deeds, stop them all, and if you resist, you will be killed!"
"The last general commands!" After Zhang Han finished speaking, he turned around very simply and strode out of Li Haochen's mansion. Li Haochen looked at the back of Zhang Han leaving, and couldn't help but think of the situation when Zhang Han led the camp to resist the 200,000 Li Shimin rebels on the peak outside Tongguan.
Thinking that he was now unofficial and unpositional, Zhang Han still heard the order and went to execute it without any hesitation. Li Haochen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's better to bring out the soldiers himself! At the same time, he nodded very satisfied with Zhang Han's performance.
After Zhang Han left, Li Haochen muttered to himself: "I hope Zhang Han can gain something!" As if he remembered something, Li Haochen clenched his fists tightly and said with some hatred: "Li Shimin, I see if you can grow wings and fly out of Henan Road, which has begun martial law!" ”
Hearing Li Haochen's words to himself, Fang Xuanling knew that Li Haochen was angered by Li Shimin's methods, but when people are angry, they often do less right and more wrong, and Li Haochen is like this at the moment.
Although Li Haochen was right to block the pass for the first time, but it was not comprehensive, in order to fulfill the duties of a strategist, and did not want to make a bigger mistake because of Li Haochen's inconsiderate consideration, Fang Xuanling hurriedly stepped forward and said: "General, it is right to block the pass and the road, but if this group of people hides and does not come out and waste time with the general, and when the court knows that the prince is missing and angers the general, what should I do?" And adults, have you forgotten that there are more than dry roads on the road out of Henan? ”
When Li Haochen heard Fang Xuanling's words, he was shocked, and suddenly came back to his senses from his endless anger, and couldn't help but be afraid for a while. Fang Xuanling was very right, if this group of people didn't leave Henan in a hurry, but played hide and seek with him, he really couldn't afford to spend it with them. In addition, Henan is close to the Yellow River, and if they escape from the waterway and make a detour back to Yunzhou, he will not have the slightest recourse.
Thinking of his own omissions, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, Li Haochen was anxious that the only thing he could command in his hands was Zhang Han, the five thousand soldiers of the trapped camp, at this moment Zhang Han had already received his order to block all the dry roads, and he didn't have a single soldier in his hands to send now.
The most irritating thing in the world is not that you don't know how to solve the dilemma in front of you, but that you know but can't do anything about it.
Originally, Li Haochen still had the Hebei Provincial soldiers brought by Li Juan'er, but because Qin sent him to Henan Province, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble to his mentor Li Jing, he had already let these soldiers return to Hebei Province before the prince and Wei Zheng arrived in Henan Province.
