Section 510 Preparation 1

Jin Hou originally thought that he was young, and if he suggested this, Mrs. Mi might not listen to them one by one.

But he didn't expect that on the same day, Mrs. Mi immediately implemented every suggestion he made in full accordance with them.

Obey the word, but that's it.

Mrs. Mi showed the domineering that many men in the family may not have, but Mrs. Mi in history has never shown such a figure, and later, after Jin Jue knew, he also felt very incredible.

Perhaps, at that time, it was at a critical moment, and her husband Liu Bei was no longer around, and a woman would burst out with all her talents when she was forced to helpless.

Two days later, the military scouts accompanied by the envoy sent by Mrs. Mi in the direction of Guangling County returned to Xiapi City.

This scout reported to Mrs. Mi and all the people in the city who cared about the movements of the Chen clan in Guangling County: Whether Chen Deng or the Chen clan in Guangling County really rebelled, the envoy still had no way of knowing, but Guangling County did take the initiative to send 15,000 Guangling County soldiers to Xia Pi without asking Liu Bei for instructions.

At present, this army has entered the territory of Xiapi State, and according to the current speed of marching, it is estimated that in three or five days, it will be able to reach the city of Xiapi. And the general who led this 'reinforcement' force was Chen Deng's second brother Chen Da, and the envoy did not find out that Chen Qi or Chen Deng were in the army at present, only Chen Da and his two younger brothers were in the army at the same time.

What is more strange is that Chen Da did not let the envoy go to Guangling County, but forced the envoy to stay in the army without giving any explanation, and the obedient members of the envoy sent by Mrs. Mi were all detained. As a scout, he was able to take the initiative to escape from being bound, which shows Mrs. Mi's vision.

Chen Deng's three younger brothers actually joined the army, which is probably the only difference from the description of the secret report brought by Jin Hou.

However, after hearing this, Mrs. Mi and the others basically determined that except for Chen Deng's own unclear situation, the Chen clan had indeed launched a rebellion, and the target of the support army led by Chen Da was the Xia Pi State.

Now, there are two choices in front of Mrs. Mi's eyes.

First, distrust, no, it should be said, not fully trust Jin Hou and his abilities.

If Madame Mi could not fully trust Jin Hou, she would have to immediately send people to all counties in the territory of Xia Pi Kingdom, so that the county commanders could secretly gather as many people from the townships in their respective counties as possible to enter the county seat, and at the same time prepare to immediately block the county seat three days after receiving the order, or before Chen Dashuai's troops arrived.

There are pros and cons to doing this.

The good thing is that it startles the snake. Let Chen Da know earlier that the Chen rebellion has been exposed, and the people in Xiapi City must have prepared a defense in advance at this time.

When the time comes, Chen Da will first send troops to the four realms to plunder the places, on the one hand, to rob the grain in the cultivated land of the tuntian, and on the other hand, to attack various county seats, of course, he can still lead his troops to directly attack Xiapicheng.

Although it took some time to send troops to capture the various county seats, once the Guangling army took all the counties under the Pi State, it could pocket the defenders of each county, so as to strengthen the strength of this rebel army.

What's more, the Chen family was originally a super family in the Xia Pi Kingdom, Chen Yu's father Chen Qiu was a captain, and his protégés and officials were all over Xuzhou, not to mention the Xia Pi Kingdom. Therefore, even if the county orders of the counties in the Xia Pi Kingdom were all pulled up by Liu Bei, once the news of the Chen family's betrayal of Liu Bei spread, these people may not be loyal to Liu Bei anymore, and when the time comes, I don't know how many people will directly defect to the Chen family.

Among them, the Chen family has obtained the official seal of Emperor Han Xian, which is the key. In the final analysis, Liu Bei's position in Xuzhou has not yet been officially appointed by the imperial court.

Second, complete trust.

If Mrs. Mi was able to do this, she would block the news, and when Chen Dashuai's troops arrived in Xiapi City, she would completely adopt the strategy offered by Jin Hou and take advantage of Liu Jilao's army to assassinate the three Chen brothers.

The snake can't be headless, once the three Chen brothers are killed on the spot, the combat effectiveness of this rebel army will be greatly reduced, and Mrs. Mi also understands this very well.

For being able to take on this important responsibility, Liu Ji readily agreed. Regardless of whether Liu Bei will be able to have a son in the future, and whether he is willing to accept him as a righteous son, Liu Ji doesn't care about this at all, but if he can really make such a miraculous feat and survive, with Liu Bei's personality, he will definitely not treat himself badly.

Originally, if the person who led the Guangling rebels was only Chen Da, the success rate of Jin Hou's strategy to assassinate him was 100 percent, but when the scout reported that Chen Deng's three younger brothers were among the rebels at home, Jin Hou bluntly said that the success rate of assassinating all three brothers together at one time was reduced to 50 percent.

However, Jin Hou also said that Chen Da is bound to kill, and Chen Da is also bound to die, and he is very confident in this. Since Chen Jue was able to hand over the army to Chen Da instead of his two younger brothers in charge, knowing that his son was better than his father, presumably Chen Jue felt that Chen Da still had a certain ability in this regard, compared to his two younger brothers.

Therefore, killing Chen Da has become the first choice.

As for Chen Da's two younger brothers, Jin Hou believes that it doesn't matter whether they can be killed or not, and when assassinating Chen Da, some other assassins only need to see them injured. In the case that the lord will be killed and the other two sons of the Chen family are killed, unless Chen Deng is there in person, otherwise, even if Chen Qi is there, he may not be able to stop the chaos of the rebels.

So, over the next three days, Jin Hou selected the recruits that Yuan had just recruited from Xiapi City for a short time, and selected those he thought were suitable to serve as assassins.

When Jin Hou chose the stabbing candidates, the first criterion he set was actually very simple, that is, courage.

The assassin is to kill people when his own side is relatively disadvantaged, so the prerequisite for choosing a person is that the chosen person needs to have enough courage.

Jing Ke assassinated King Qin, Qin Wuyang, who dared to kill people at the age of thirteen, was actually not commendable. Daring to kill at the age of thirteen does not show his courage, perhaps, he killed people only when he was forced to do so.

Naturally, the person Jin Hou is looking for will definitely not use Jing Ke as a standard. That kind of person may not be one out of a million people. He can't do it himself, so how can he use such a standard to demand from others?
