The strong arm came to Xu Ji in front of the longitudinal horse, and only stopped when it was less than a step away, and the hot air exhaled by the horse sprayed directly on Xu Ji's face.

"What did you say?"

Xu Ji moved out of the way slightly, "I'll stop a disaster." ”

This was his previous answer, and he didn't take it seriously at the time, and now he understands the hidden meaning of the words.

"Impossible."

"For anyone, it is an adventure to come out of the nest, and it is not the most beneficial choice for King Jin to think that it is impossible?"

Qiangjian looked at Lord He Rong around him, Xu Ji's words were all heard by these people, some people didn't understand the Central Plains dialect, and they also heard the interpretation from other people's mouths, all of them were half-convinced, but as long as they believed a little, they would show panic.

There are few outsiders, and this army alone has brought almost all the young and middle-aged, and all the people left on the grassland are old, weak, sick and disabled, but they are the families of the soldiers, and there is a lot of wealth accumulated on the grassland for many years, once it is taken away, He Rongbu will suffer huge losses, and the most important thing is that they will be homeless.

Shan Yu turned the horse's head, faced the adults of his own clan, and said a few words in a loud voice, his tone was still passionate and generous, but he did not win bursts of cheers as usual, but someone responded with his mouth, although he was a little hesitant, but after all, it was a kind of question, and many people around nodded in agreement.

Shan Yu said a few more words, his tone was much softer, as if he was discussing and persuading, obviously not very successful, he called Zhou Yuanbin out of the crowd.

Zhou Yuanbin was already frightened, and before he could ask, he said a long list of He Rong's words, as if he was defending himself and King Jin.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, Zhang Shiyu turned his head to stare at Xu Ji and asked what this meant with his eyes.

Xu Ji nodded, indicating that everything was under control.

Zhang Shiyu didn't believe it, he felt that he was being brought into danger, and there was almost no possibility of breaking free.

Zhou Yuanbin was still talking eagerly, Shan Yu suddenly became angry, jumped off the horse, raised the horsewhip and whipped it hard, Zhou Yuanbin didn't dodge, he was hit in the chest, screaming in pain, when Shan Yu called again, he wanted to hide but didn't dare to dodge, he could only move left and right, and then defend faster, and stretched out his hand again and again to point at Xu Ji.

Zhang Shiyu was originally standing with Xu Ji, but at this time he quietly took a few steps to the side, keeping a distance so as not to be implicated.

He left in time, Shan Yu turned around and strode towards the "culprit", his tone was fierce, as if he had forgotten that Xu Ji did not understand He Rongyu.

"Shan Yu is determined to be in the world, why don't you like to listen to the truth?"

Shan Yu changed to the original dialect, "This is a trick, not the truth." ”

"What if it's true? Alone is delayed here, but the Jin army is in a hurry. ”

Shan Yu looked even more angry, but he didn't make a move, looking at Yuyang City not far away, "Slaughtering the city can make them stay for a few more days......

"The slaughter of the city will cost Shan Yu an important ally, especially at this moment."

Glancing at the emperor, a slightly disdainful look appeared on his face, "The people of the Central Plains are not credible." ”

"The people of the Central Plains don't believe in each other, otherwise, there will be no chaos, just don't believe in the Central Plains, but you should take advantage of this." Xu Ji shut up in time.

Shan Yu glanced at Lord He Rong around him again, and finally made a decision, shouted a few words, and everyone immediately got on the horse.

It wasn't until the enemy army was far away, and the officials of Yuyang were still kneeling on the ground, and they couldn't hear the sound of horses' hooves, so they dared to get up and watch, looking at each other, and no one understood the cause and effect.

Back in the camp, Xu Ji was taken directly to the big tent.

Shan Yu had already issued a series of orders on the road, and the army's morale was a little stable, and he could find time to discuss countermeasures with the adults.

Although the tent was large, it was still crowded, and Xu Ji was squeezed into the corner, although the surrounding voices were loud, he couldn't understand a word, and he felt bored.

Someone walked up to him, grabbed one of his arms, very hard, and whispered viciously, "Are you going to kill me?" I will definitely ...... this revenge."

Zhou Yuanbin was whipped twice, and although the injury was not serious, the shock was not small.

Xu Ji said: "You should thank me, why hate me?" ”

"You treat me as a fool......"

Xu Ji shook his head and whispered: "King Jin has already lost his favor and is about to be mortally attacked, but as soon as the news of the northbound exit comes, he will be taken seriously." Shan Yu is angry at the moment, and soon wants to ease the situation, this is King Jin's chance, and it is also yours. ”

Zhou Yuanbin thought for a while, slowly let go, and gently dusted Xu Ji's sleeve twice, erasing the wrinkles, "But you caused me to be whipped." ”

"If it is not broken, it will not stand, and there are some things that I can't predict."

"Getting beaten is a small thing...... Will it change your mind? He still wants to attack Jinyang, and he is more anxious, but others don't agree with it, he wants to divide his troops, part of it will return to the outside of the Saiwai, and part of it will attack Jinyang, some people agree, some people don't agree, and they are fighting hard. ”

"Don't miss the opportunity, the time will not come again, but Zhou joins the army and wastes time with me?"

Zhou Yuanbin's face changed slightly, he said "thank you", turned around and squeezed into the crowd, quietly contacted the supporters of the Shen family, and found an opportunity to say a few words in front of Shan Yu.

The controversy was finally over, and it was difficult to say what the outcome would be, or even whether there would be a result, and when the adults withdrew, they were still arguing with each other.

No one told Xu Ji that he could leave, so he could only stand where he was.

In the end, there were only more than ten people left in the big tent, except for Shan Yu and Xu Ji, the others were all servants, standing in a row, waiting for the master's orders.

Shan Yu sat on the blanket and never spoke or looked at people.

Shan Yu's eldest wife came in alone, walked straight to Shan Yu's side and sat down, gently pressed his shoulder with one hand, and whispered.

Probably to prevent the servants from understanding, when he spoke again, Shan Yu used the original dialect, "I know this is a ruse, but they don't believe it." You also know that many adults are friendly with the Shen family, and I have been hiding the news that I am going to seize the annexed state, but some people have already guessed it and strongly disagree. Alas, they are all short-sighted people, and the heaven-sent opportunity has given me the opportunity to seize the Central Plains, but they still care about the friendship in the past. ”

The eldest wife whispered: "When they enjoy the benefits of the Central Plains, they will never remember the Shen family again." ”

"But now ......"

The eldest wife whispered a few words in Shan Yu's ear, and Shan Yu turned his head to look at Xu Ji in the corner, "He? ”

The eldest wife nodded, whispered a few more words, and then got up to leave.

Shan Yu said to Xu Ji: "You come here." ”

Xu Ji walked closer and bowed his hand.

Shan Yu was silent for a long time, "You are good at trickery, I need trickery." What Hirayama didn't do, I'm going to give it a try. ”

"I'm sorry if you just want my submission, I can't."

"Well, you don't have to surrender." Shan Yu didn't have any anger, thought for a while, and said, "That's good, from now on, you have to contribute at least one strategy every day in exchange for your own life." ”

"Am I guilty of capital crimes?"

"You are not guilty, but your life is still mine. You can not surrender, not kneel, not accept the reward, but if I ask something, you have to answer, and if you answer well, it is a ploy, and if you answer badly, I will leave you useless. ”

"It sounds fair, but if I give a few in one day, will it be counted in the next few days?"

Shan Yu was slightly stunned, and then laughed, "Yes." What is your plan for today? ”

"Isn't the news of King Jin's going north counted?"

"No, because I didn't ask."

"Makes sense, in that case, please just ask."

Shan Yu stood up, "Don't rush for the time being." The news of King Jin's journey north has not yet been confirmed, in case you are really lying-" Shan Yu smiled, "I have already thought of three ways to make your life worse than death. Yuyang? Ruined by the city, princess? Before she died, she would have regretted believing in someone she shouldn't have believed. ”

"Some things are inevitable and don't need to be confirmed." Xu Jidao.

"From now on, you stay with me." Shan Yu has no intention of arguing.

Kou Daogu came in from the outside and bowed in front of Shan Yu, neither humble nor arrogant, "Shan Yu wants to see me?" ”

"The two of you, stay by my side in the future, as advisers and staff officers, and in the end I will only keep one, I hope you two will work hard and don't let me down."

Xu Ji didn't speak, Kou Daogu said: "It's the same hard work, some people work hard to achieve things, some people work hard to do bad things, hope to be alone in Mingjian." ”

Shan Yu smiled: "I know it in my heart. ”

There is an advantage to staying by Shan Yu's side, even if you can't understand He Rong's language, you can understand their movements to some extent.

Shan Yu's original intention was to immediately attack Jinyang and Zhou, and then transfer to the north to rescue his hometown outside the Saiwai, but too many people objected, and he became Shan Yu not long ago, and he couldn't do whatever he wanted, so he only divided tens of thousands of troops and returned to Saiwai by the same way.

The next thing is more difficult to decide one by one, Zhou Yuanbin used all his connections to persuade Shan Yu to reconcile with the Shen family in turn, and he also went into battle in person, and the king of Chen Jin had no two hearts, even if he had the intention of going north, he heard rumors, thinking that He Rong people gave up their old feelings to attack Jinyang, so they were forced to make this decision.

Zhang Shiyu also woke up, he could rely on very few relationships, only through the envoy to ask to see Shan Yu, generously stated, expressed his willingness to personally lead troops to invade the state, for Shan Yu to share worries, as for the princess, it was taken away by Tang Shiju, all of the previous things, all of which were not out of the princess's original intention, Yunyun.

Both sides have their own opinions, Zhou Yuanbin has many people, and Zhang Shiyu's plan is more in line with Shan Yu's own heart, so he has been arguing.

Soon after nightfall, news finally came from the King of Jin, but it was vague news, the Jin army seemed to have really gone north, but the King of Jin himself was still guarding the Flying Fox Pass, hoping that Shan Yu could explain many rumors.

The situation became deadlocked, and Shan Yu drove everyone away, left alone in the tent to think about countermeasures, and two quarters of an hour later, sent someone to summon two "advisers".

Xu Ji arrived a step late, and Kou Daogu had just spoken to Shan Yu.

Kou Daogu said that neither the emperor nor the king of Jin could be trusted, and the superior strategy was to kill the emperor first, in order to win the trust of the king of Jin, and then bring him to death, and then take Jizhou in the south and merge the state in the west, gain a firm foothold, and then enter the world. What do you think? ”

"Clever plan." Xu Ji replied.

"You agree too?"

"On paper, I agree."

Kou Daogu sneered, and Shan Yu said: "If you have something to say, don't go around, I don't like it." ”

Xu Ji said: "Although the Kou family's plan is wonderful, the loss is that they don't understand that King Jin is a person, so there is a major omission. ”

"Do you know King Jin?"

"I am a sworn brother with him, I once guarded the eastern capital together, I know that the king of Jin is a person, suspicious and bold, just killing the emperor, not only will not regain trust, but will make the king of Jin suspicious, but also go north to the fortress."

"What's your 'trick'?"

"Sit and wait." Xu Ji replied.

Shan Yu nodded, "The two of them have a good strategy, solve a few doubts in my heart, but I won't kill the emperor, attack and annex the state, and I won't sit and wait, hundreds of thousands of cavalry will enter the fortress, how can I sit still and not move?" Early tomorrow morning, I will personally lead my troops south and take Yecheng directly. ”
