Let's say that this cautious prescription was arrested is only an expedient measure, the so-called words came out of his mouth, the wind blew the matter, and there is no real evidence, how can it be proved that he collaborated with the enemy, or was instructed by a traitor? We must not abuse lynching to make others a confession.

What's more, the current emergency is not a little pickled inside, but the siege of the Ashina tribe army outside Ganzhou City, and now the secret passage has been sealed, Ganzhou has completely become a dead city, ten days and half a month may be barely able to support, when the materials in the city are exhausted, what can I do?

Li Jing knew the danger of the situation, and thought that Hou Junji and Li Daozong would be able to capture the city of Fuqi in a short period of time by running long distances from the southwest, so that this Ashina army would become a rootless duckweed, and finally disperse like birds and beasts, and the siege of Ganzhou would naturally break through without attacking.

However, I don't know what happened halfway, but there was no news from Hou Junji and Li Daozong's side, so that Li Jing's side could only struggle to maintain, as if he was already in an embarrassing state.

Unable to sleep when he came and went, Li Jing simply ordered the account to be raised, and summoned a cadre of people to pick up the lamp to discuss the military, and the strategist Liu Shuyi (Note 1) rushed out of the ranks, explaining the current situation, and offered advice: "Today, I am trapped by death, why don't I gather dozens of dead soldiers, hang down the city at night, go to Zhangye, and transfer the military horses of Gao Zhensheng, the governor of the capital, to rescue, and the inside and outside should be combined, and it is bound to be able to break the firewood thief army!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the generals made a sudden gesture, and after seeing it clearly, they saw that it was the front left servant shooting, and Liu Shuyi, the tiger son of Liu Wenjing, the Duke of Lu, exchanged their heads and ears, and there were many seconders.

Although Li Jing is old, his mind is extremely sober, and he questioned at the moment: "Liu Junshi's plan is a good strategy, but the enemy is prepared, and he will definitely surround Ganzhou like a bucket, not to mention that the scout sentries are bound to roam around, even if the dead soldiers of our army are lucky to get out of the city, how can they get out of the blockade line safely?" ”

There was a sudden silence in the tent, and then his eyes shifted to Liu Shuyi's body, this brave strategist was not afraid of the scene, saluted, and reported with his head bowed: "What Lord Li said is very true, if you send my Tang soldiers down the city, you will definitely not be able to get out of this blockade line, but what if it is not my ** soldier?" The lord has forgotten how Xu Zhen's subordinates, the commander of Zhichong, entered this Ganzhou territory..."

Everyone was so little pulled by him, and suddenly woke up, this person is really resourceful, then Xu Zhen didn't disguise his headquarters as a wild ranger, so he successfully arrived in Ganzhou!

However, this strategy is only used by Xu Zhen's soldiers and horses, only because of his subordinates Dosal and Rouran warriors, dressed up, and the wild captives are generally good-looking, and the language is not hindered, if you encounter enemy scouts and rangers, you can use Turkic language to cover, and the end is seamless!

Li Jing nodded with satisfaction, and cast an appreciative look at Liu Shuyi, and was about to give Xu Zhen a military order, but he saw a person come out and admonish: "What Liu Junshi said is not bad, but there are many rumors in the army that Xu Zhen has cultivated foreign treachery, and has been suspected of defecting to the enemy twice, how dare he hand over the life of our army, the huge gate of Ganzhou, to the people of other races under his command?" ”

Everyone frowned when they heard this, and when they looked over, they saw that the person who spoke was Du He, the commander of the horses!

Although Xu Zhen's promotion was rapid, attracting many jealous people in the army, he won many battles and won many strange tricks, and there were many capable generals under his command.

However, what Du He said was not unreasonable, even if they could trust Xu Zhen, they couldn't trust those foreigners under Xu Zhen's hands.

Li Jing's face was calm, his joy and anger were invisible, and he couldn't see that he was ugly, he leaned forward slightly, and asked Du He, the commander of the horses: "In that case, what does the horse teach me?" ”

Du He raised his head slightly, glanced at Liu Shuyi from the corner of his eye, seemed to be quite proud, and then said: "These savages have a lot of courage, if they guide Yishan, it is indeed a great help, with a certain foolish opinion, it should make Xu Duwei personally supervise the army, so it should be relieved." ”

Li Jing snorted lightly, noncommittal, but began to think in his heart, this Xu Zhen was seriously injured in the first battle of Zhangye, and his legs and feet were inconvenient, and he rushed to kill again today, pulling the wound, and now it is a little difficult to walk, and then let him serve as a dead soldier supervisor, if there are three long and two short, the good talent will die like this, which is really embarrassing.

The generals also have a good heart, knowing that Du He has walked a lot with Chen Guogong's mansion, and has had a relationship with Hou Poyu, all saying that Xu Zhen annoyed the Hou family father and son, and Hou Junji used the killing strategy in the court, making Xu Zhen the target of the public.

Li Jing, as the commander, is related to the city and the sergeants of the country, and never participates in these intrigues, but he dislikes Xu Zhen and favors and appreciates it, and is thinking about more promotions, but at this critical moment, these people still have some conspiracies, which is really frustrating.

When he was in a dilemma, another person came out of the ranks, but it was Xue Wanche, the general of the right guard, who didn't care about some etiquette, and directly suggested: "Li Gong is a little safe, this Xu Duwei is injured on his back, and there are many sufferings, if he goes to supervise the army, he can't deter those dead soldiers. ”

Li Jing was worried about how to protect Xu Zhen, and when he heard that Xue Wanche had a candidate, his eyes suddenly lit up, but he suppressed his impatience and still asked usually: "This is very good, I don't know who General Xue recommends?" ”

Xue Wanjun replied loudly: "A certain clan brother Xue Wanliang has an eldest son, Xue Dayi, who is a lieutenant colonel in the army, who is brave and loyal, but at this time, he is under the command of Xu Zhen and can be appointed as a supervisor. ”

When Li Jing heard this, there was no reason not to allow it, so the matter was decided, he wrote a secret letter, handed it over to Xu Zhen, and passed on the military order, ordering him to hang people down from the city at the third watch tonight, and defect to Zhangye to move Gao Zhensheng and Qi Bi He Li to be a rescuer.

The tent was over, everyone dispersed, Du He went around, but followed Xue Wanche to the private camp, the two closed the tent, and did not raise the fire, but laughed in a low voice, slapped his palm, and said happily: "This matter should be done!" ”

Xue Wanche took the lamp, and ordered someone to summon Xue Dayi to the tent, but he greeted him and comforted him: "Has my nephew ever been better in the army?" ”

Xue Dayi's family is a branch of the clan, there is little care, the courtyard is withered, and the clan is not optimistic.

Xue Wanche also said that he had snubbed Xue Wanliang, and he had to let the clan give more land slaves, and in the coming day, he would let Xue Wanliang participate in the major events of the clan.

He Xue Dayi was not that stupid person, and hurriedly said: "There are many families that my uncle takes care of, and my little nephew is deeply impressed. ”

Xue Wanche then told the account about it, and Xue Dayi hurriedly agreed to it, vowing to be a good student monitor and handle things properly.

However, Xue Wanche sneered, waved his hand, pulled Xue Dayi over, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle didn't teach you to do the work of the prison army, but let you do a rich and noble thing!" ”

Xue Dayi was suspicious in his heart, but he heard this noble uncle's low instructions in his ear, but the cold sweat on his back came up one by one, and his back was soaked after a while!

When Xue Dayi returned to the tent, Xu Zhen had already sent people, Xue Dayi simply cleaned up again, and hurried to Xu Zhen's middle tent, but saw that a dry of dead soldiers had already been gathered, and it was three or five foreign experts led by Yinzong, all of whom were smart and vigilant men.

Seeing that Xue Dayi came to report, Xu Zhen also comforted him, and had a good life with many brothers, so he delivered the secret letter to Xue Dayi, sent the dead to the city, and took advantage of the night to make people hang down the city.

After the dead man left, Xu Zhen frowned.

Zhang Jiunian walked out from behind and whispered to Xu Zhen: "Lord, this matter is by no means as simple as it seems, I believe that the lord has already smelled some crises, and he has the courage to mention it, this Xue Dayi, but it is not good to say that it is a disbeliever, this trip is difficult, and it is to harm the lives of the brothers of the Yinzong..."

When Xu Zhen heard this, he became more and more sure of the conjecture in his heart, but he looked at the night in the distance, secretly gritted his teeth, patted Zhang Jiunian's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't suspect people with suspicion, I believe that he Xue Dayi will not bully me, Mr. can't believe Xue Dayi, but you need to believe in the eyesight of your lord." ”

Zhang Jiunian was slightly stunned, then sighed lightly, shook his head, and seemed to still be relieved Xue Dayi, looking at the deep night from a distance, like the mouth of the fierce beast, eager to devour people's lives!

But it is said that Yinzong and other five warriors have galloped in the wilderness since childhood, their feet are strong, their eyes are like wolves at night, they are not afraid of the bumpy terrain, and they are familiar with it like a leisurely stroll.

"This is a godsend!"

Yinzong was decisive, communicated with the other brothers, scattered in all directions, outflanked the three or five scouts in one place, and suddenly broke out, and those scouts lost their lives without a single shot.

Wiping off the bloodstains on the blade, Yinzong searched out the identity of the scouts and other markers, searched around, and found the fast-paced horses of these scouts in a moment, and under Xue Dayi's reminder, he hastily buried the corpses of the scouts, erased the signs, and then stepped on the horse's back and threw himself straight to Zhangye.

The journey was also smooth, the night was dark, Xue Dayi deliberately covered his face, Yinzong and the others were familiar with the Turkic language, and they had captured Murong Xiao before, and they knew a lot about the composition of Tuyuhun's army, and after some questions and answers, they actually passed the block of five or six scout secret sentinels!

Seeing that he was about to leave the territory of Ganzhou, the east had already appeared in the white belly of the fish, Yinzong and the others were overjoyed, the war horse under the crotch was getting faster and faster, and the wind was whistling in his ears, everything seemed to be quite smooth.

However, this kind of smoothness made Yinzong, who was vigilant by nature, uneasy, and looked at a small slope in front of him, and with all his eyesight, he could vaguely see a figure dodging and dodging, and he couldn't help but tighten his heartstrings.

But at this time, Xue Dayi, who was behind the overseers, gritted his teeth and quietly untied the longbow on horseback!
