Qi Tian, who was drinking and drinking, staggered into the private room with the support of two maids.

Before Mao Gui could speak, Qi Tian said with a smile: "General Mao, why didn't you come up to the top if you didn't drink downstairs?" Could it be which girl in this restaurant in the picture? As soon as the lower official went to talk to the shopkeeper, General Bao would be able to take people back to his house immediately. ”

"Bang!" Mao Gui slapped the table suddenly, and his gloomy face really startled Qi Tian.

Han Lin'er, who was looking at the flowers in the room, walked out slowly, waved his hand to let the two stupid maids out, pressed Qi Tian on the seat again, and said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, sit down honestly, we have important things to know with you." ”

Frightened by Mao Gui before, Qi Tian didn't feel much drunk, and at this time, when he saw Han Lin'er coming out of the room, his cold words made him shiver with excitement, and he woke up instantly.

Looking at the faces of the two, I think something big is happening.

It's just that they don't say it, Qi Tian doesn't want to ask much, so he can only sit in his chair and wait anxiously and blindly.

Fortunately, this embarrassment did not last long before it was broken by a creaking knock on the door.

Liu Qi walked forward quickly, and was about to give a salute to the three big people in the house, but was interrupted by Han Lin'er waving his hand, "Don't be polite, let's talk about things first." ”

Liu Qi nodded, sorted out his thoughts, and said: "The little one was ordered by General Mao to go to Bozhou to send a letter to General Liu. ”

Han Lin'er and Mao Gui glanced at each other and asked, "What's the trouble?" ”

Liu Qi said in a deep voice: "Before I arrived, Shouchun City had been attacked by the Tartars, and cards had been set up on all official roads, so I couldn't pass at all. ”

"What?"

When Han Lin'er and the three of them heard this, their faces showed surprise.

Mao Gui was the first to come back to his senses and asked Liu Qi: "Shouchun has three thousand defenders, how can it be so vulnerable?" ”

Liu Qi smiled bitterly: "I heard from the fleeing people that this enemy army is full of Tartar iron cavalry, and there are more than 1,000 people. These people all came very quickly, so Shouchun City didn't have time to guard at all, and it was easily taken. ”

Mao Gui's face couldn't help but become solemn, and he asked Liu Qi again, "Do you know where the Tartars are going to wave their troops after they take Shouchun City?" ”

"The little incompetence failed to detect the Tartars' intentions." Liu Qi shook his head, "However, if you go to Bozhou, you must go through Shouchun." Now that Shouchun is broken, we should have no way out. So the little one found someone to pass the message instead, and came back to tell Han Lang and General Mao the news. ”

"That's right." Mao Gui nodded, lost in thought.

Qi Tian lost his voice and said, "Could it be that Tartar's move is to deal with General Liu?" ”

Han Lin'er smiled bitterly and shook her head, "It's to deal with me." ”

"You?"

The three people in the room looked at Han Lin'er in surprise.

Han Lin'er explained: "Bozhou is General Liu's base, which has been operating for many years and has strong strength. Not to mention a thousand Tartar Iron Horsemen, even if it is another five thousand, it will be difficult to take. In addition to Bozhou, there is only Anfeng City around Shouchun where we have temporarily settled. Thinking about these Tartars again, they are used for a thousand-mile surprise attack, which is no different from the people we have encountered before, so it is not difficult to guess their intentions. ”

"These people are really haunted." Mao Gui paused and wondered: "Since the Tartars are coming for Han Lang, why do you want to capture Shouchun City?" Isn't it a scare for a snake? ”

Han Lin'er smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Brother Mao, haven't you forgotten, I waited in the cave of Suishan for three days, if I was in a hurry, wouldn't I arrive at Shouchun City?" ”

Since Han Lin'er needed time to sort out the thoughts of the original owner and how to get rid of the fate of becoming a puppet, he stayed in the cave for a few more days, but he didn't expect that this would help him avoid a catastrophe.

Liu Qi, who had been bowing her head and pondering, asked, "How did Tartar know about our itinerary?" ”

Han Lin'er and Mao Gui glanced at each other, a sneer hooked up at the corner of their mouths, and the former said: "Let's not mention this for the time being, let's think about how to deal with the Tartars who occupy Shouchun." ”

Mao Gui sighed and said: "Today's plan, I can only hold on, these are all iron horses, thousands of miles of surprise attacks, it is impossible to carry siege equipment, so as long as I stay in the city, everything is worry-free." ”

Han Lin'er shook his head and said: "If we want to go back to Bozhou, we must borrow from Shouchun, how can we spare these tartars?" Moreover, if you can't stick to it, it will only make the Tartars look down on us Han people. ”

Mao Gui's eyelids jumped, and he asked tentatively, "What does Han Lang mean?" ”

Han Lin'er sneered: "Annihilate all these Tartars." In this way, it not only solves the problem of returning to Bozhou, but also lets the Tartars know the power of our Han people. ”

As soon as these words came out, Mao Gui and the other three all stared at Han Lin'er with incredible eyes, as if they were listening to mythological stories.

Han Lin'er smiled: "Are you really afraid of the Tartars? ”

Mao Gui smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's not that I'm afraid of the Tartars, it's just that outside the city of Anfeng is a land of flat rivers, if we fight with the Tartars outside the city, we have no chance of winning at all." Besides, Han Lang also knew that there were not many brothers available on my side, and there were a thousand elite iron horsemen on the Tartar side. ”

After speaking, he set his eyes on Qi Tian, who understood, and smiled more ugly than crying, "There are only eight hundred guards in the city, among which there are many old, weak, sick and disabled, and those who can wear perseverance and sharpness, less than five hundred. ”

Seeing Han Lin'er frowning, Qi Tian hurriedly explained: "Han Lang don't be angry, Anfeng City is also the hinterland of Jianghuai, and there are no strong enemies around. Already, a month ago, General Liu sent people to transfer the 2,000 elite soldiers who were originally stationed here to Bozhou, leaving only more than 300 wounded veterans. Now there can be 800 guards, and they are still temporarily recruited by the lower officials to ensure Han Lang's safety. ”

Mao Gui took over the conversation, "If that's the case, it's better for us to defend the city." No matter how powerful the Tartar Iron Cavalry is, I don't believe that he can break through the city gates! ”

Qi Tian and Liu Qi agreed with these words.

Seeing Han Lin'er's brows frowning slightly, Mao Gui said again: "Han Lang doesn't need to worry, as long as he persists for a few days, and waits for General Liu, who got the news, to raise troops to save me, and I will naturally have no worries." ”

Han Lin'er shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Don't you forget that Shouchun City is bordered by Bianliang in the west and Bozhou in the north, and it is an important place for the south to the north. If General Liu had brought troops here, wouldn't these Tartars have asked Bianliang for help? At that time, a big war is inevitable. If the Tartars first contain General Liu's soldiers and horses, and then divide a part of their forces to step up the attack on Anfeng, can we hold it? ”

"This ......"

Mao Gui's face was embarrassed, and before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Han Lin'er.

"The plan now is to take advantage of this lonely army of Tartars, who are delusional to take Anfeng City in one go, to annihilate them all, and then take back Shouchun City with lightning speed, so as not to give Bianliang Tartars a chance to react. In this way, it is the best policy. ”

Qi Tian was embarrassed: "Anfeng City has few soldiers, and there is no way to annihilate these Tartars. ”

"The soldiers will be in the plan but not in the brave, and the soldiers will be fine but not in the many." The corners of Han Lin'er's mouth hooked up a mysterious smile, "Just like this......"

Han Lin'er talked about the strategy with the three of them, and suddenly became enlightened,

Mao Gui lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Han Lang needs to promise me, no matter what happens, you can't go into battle in person!" ”

Han Lin'er smiled: "Don't worry, my life is precious, how can I be buried here?" ”
