It's a pity that the South Korean won's reaction was still a step late.

When Ma Erhan arrived at Fucheng, Fucheng was already surrounded by rebels. Ma Erhan tried several times, but not only did he not have the ability to bring Han Yuan's letter in, but more than half of the dozen cavalry under his command were lost. The rest of the people fled back to Linwu after nine deaths.

"Sir, the mark is incompetent, and the sir's explanation has not been completed." At the head of the city, Ma Erhan was disgraced and said to Han Yuan in embarrassment.

"I don't blame you, I don't blame you." Han Yuan sighed deeply, and said: "Jiang is still old and spicy, this Yue Wang Zhou Xuan is really not an ordinary person." The soldiers and horses under the city of Nafu must be the main force of the rebels. ”

Ma Erhan was puzzled: "How is it possible?" How did the rebels cross the river silently? Why can't we hear the wind at all? ”

Han Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "The rebels must have crossed the river from Shangxuan." It was also my momentary negligence, now it is the end of autumn, the Daling River is a dry period, and it is not impossible for the rebels to cross the river from Shangxuan. ”

"What about Liu Dong in Shang Xuancheng? The rebels crossed the river from Shang Xuan, and it was impossible for him not to know anything about it, so why didn't he report to us? Ma Erhan was still puzzled.

"What else, presumably this person has already been bought by Zhou Xuan and made an internal ghost. Oh, this Liu Dong is not simple, everyone was discussing the military situation in Fucheng before, and he didn't say a word for several days, I almost ignored this person. ”

Ma Erhan slammed his fist on the city wall and scolded: "This old miscellaneous hair, it turns out that he betrayed us." ”

Han Won turned his head to look at the city, and the situation was now very clear. The rebels outside Linwu City and Jingxing City were just a group of suspicious soldiers, in order to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers, and the real main force took the opportunity to cross the river from Shangxuan and go straight to Fucheng.

"Ma Erhan, tell the brothers who came back with you, this matter cannot be known to other people in the city, especially Zhang Zhuangyang and Wu Ji'er." Han Yuan said with a solemn expression.

"Yes!"

Ma Erhan received the order and was about to retreat, but Han Yuan suddenly stopped him again.

"Wait, you go and find Li Kui, I have something to say to him."

……

Because of the confidentiality, Han Yuan specially asked Li Kui to meet at the official residence.

"Leader, I don't know what happened when I called someone to come?" Li Kui doubted.

Han Yuan settled down and told him about the siege of Fucheng without reservation.

"Brigade General Li, I, Han Yuan, have a lot of confidence in you. I hid this from others, but I didn't hide it from you, I just hope you can be with me. Han Won said in a deep voice.

When Li Kui heard this, his brows furrowed, his heart was surprised, and he said tentatively: "Leader, this kind of thing is not a joke. ”

"Nonsense, Ben is not a three-year-old child, how could he lie to you with such a thing. Liu Dong has rebelled, and now the city of Xiafu has been surrounded! The situation is critical! ”

Li Kui believed Han Yuan's words and asked, "What are the plans of the leader?" Are we going to unite the people of Jingxing City to come to the rescue? ”

"No, no, no, we must not return reinforcements, and if we do, it will really be a heavy plan for the rebels. The rebels surrounded Fucheng in order to encircle the point and send reinforcements and annihilate us all. Even if we come back to help, Jingxingcheng may not send troops. It won't help. Han Won's face was heavy and his voice was dry.

Li Kui thought for a long time, but he didn't have any answer in his heart, so he had to ask again: "According to what the leader said, can we only watch the city of Fucheng being taken by the rebels?" If General Gu was captured by the rebels, or directly surrendered to the anti-king Zhou Xuan, wouldn't we lose this battle? ”

"That's right, we're lost. I never thought that the officers and soldiers would win. Han Yuan exhaled and said slowly.

Li Kui was even more puzzled, and whispered: "Leader, what do you mean, do you want everyone to join the rebels?" ”

"No, that's not what I meant. General Li, let me ask you, what do you think Zhou Xuan's chances of winning this rebellion are? Han Yuan looked at Li Kui and asked rhetorically.

Although Li was stupid, he still felt that the rebels would eventually fail. In recent years, although there have been many people who do not know whether they are alive or dead, and have rebelled against the imperial court, they have all been pacified by the imperial court without exception. Li Kui thought for a moment and replied.

Han Yuan said: "Exactly. In the current situation, there is no friction between the imperial court and Kunguo for the time being, and if the king of Yue rebels, the imperial court will definitely send elite troops south to suppress it. Think about it, which way of the officers and soldiers in the north has not been fighting for years and with outstanding martial arts? King Yue, a gang of thieves who started in a hurry, can beat them? This is one of them. ”

"Second, King Yue is a rebel who started an incident for no reason, and the court is a rebel, representing the Son of Heaven, who has taken up all the righteousness, and the people are wanting, and it is difficult for the rebels to be undefeated."

"Third, the world is Kyushu, the imperial court still accounts for eight, and the king of Yue fights against the world with a corner of the land, where will it succeed? What I mean is that we must not surrender, and once we surrender, we can only follow Zhou Xuan to the dark. That end is destined to be a funeral. ”

Han Yuan finished speaking in one breath, only feeling exhausted.

"The leader neither intends to surrender nor rescue the city, what is his intention? Linwu City ordered soldiers and horses like this, but I was afraid that we would not give Zhou Xuan a funeral, but we would have to give the imperial court a martyrdom first. Li Kui still doesn't understand.

Han Won rubbed his head and suddenly felt a headache. It took a while for him to explain:

"The city is strong, I believe that General Gu and they can hold on for at least half a month. When the rebels seize the city, they will turn around and take Linwu, and at that time we can only defend it and drag him for more than 20 days. ”

"So what?" Li Kui was almost confused.

"Brigade General Li, don't you exist as a reinforcement for the imperial court? At that time, it is time for the imperial army to arrive! ”

Han Yuan couldn't laugh or cry, and Li Kui's reaction was too slow. He continued:

"Not only that, but soon the cold winter will come, the rebels will be in the opposition, we will be in the city, and the situation will be in our favor! As soon as the imperial reinforcements arrived, the end of the rebels came. ”

Li Kui was silent for a long time, and sighed in his heart: I'm afraid, I'm afraid that we won't be able to last so long.

Han Yuan looked at his face, and he already guessed his worry in his heart. Said slowly: "Brigade General Li, it's up to anyone." If you die for the court, you can go down in history. conspiring with the anti-thief is doomed to ruin. ”

Li Kui clenched his fists, saluted Han won, and silently withdrew from the official residence.

Han Won sat down in his chair with a dejected face. At this moment, he thought of Gao Yangcheng's fiancée Jiang Luoyue, his younger brother Han Yuan, and even Lin Miao, who had been serving him in his diet and daily life. The faces of these people were like in front of him, and Han Won's heart was very reluctant.

"Is this the end of my life? Heaven gave birth to me in order for me to die meaninglessly like this? Han Won muttered to himself in his heart.

Although when he talked to Li Kui, he still gave the other party a glimmer of hope to live. However, he knew better than anyone that this time, the 10,000 officers and soldiers in Linwu City were afraid that they would all die here.

"Nope! I want to live. I said I was going back and marry her! ”

Han Yuan pulled out his sword and strode out of the official residence, his eyes full of murderous intent.
