Chapter Seventy-Two: The Dying and Struggling Duke of Wei
The Mansion of the Duke of Wei, the study of Liu Lin, the Duke of Wei, was brightly lit, and the study was surrounded by confidants, prohibiting anyone who did not have an order to approach.
In the study, Liu Lin, the Duke of Wei, was talking to a man who was not amazing.
The man was wearing a cyan straight dress, a six-fold hat, and a subordinate dress, who was the pseudonym Liu Xin, pretending to be the leader of the Dashun Army in the capital of the Duke of Wei.
"You promised me in advance that it would be safe, but why did you miss it in the end?" Liu Lin, the Duke of Wei, stared at the unattractive man in front of him, with suppressed anger in his tone.
"Grandpa Guo, no one expected the miss, and no one wants to see it. If you want to blame, you can only blame your intelligence for being so inaccurate that you don't even know that the carriage is an ironclad car. You know, I lost more than half of my manpower in this operation, and if we want to say that the loss is still our biggest loss, those brothers are all good hands who have been following for many years. If it weren't for your intelligence mistakes, I wouldn't have lost so many brothers. ”
The harrier did not show weakness at all, looked directly at Liu Lin and said coldly.
"You!" Liu Lin's voice suddenly turned cold, and the hands behind his back couldn't help but clench, staring at the harrier.
"What? Grandpa Guo wants to kill people and kill people? Harrier sneered, staring at Liu Lin's eyes and asked.
Liu Lin didn't speak, but still stared at him. That's right, he did have murderous intentions.
"It's better for the villain to persuade Grandpa Guo not to be impulsive. Grandpa Guo must also know that if something happens to me and my brother outside can't hear from me within two days, then the Qin Wangfu and the emperor will receive a letter. As for what the content of the letter is, I think such a smart person as Grandpa Guo must be able to guess it. According to the current power and prestige of that King Qin, can he let go of Grandpa Guo? I'm afraid that when the time comes, it will be the burial of the next villain in the Mansion of the Duke of Wei, right? ”
The harrier took a sip of the teacup in front of Liu Lin and looked at Liu Lin loudly.
He was not afraid that Liu Lin would not give in. He has seen too many such opportunists who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
Indeed, although the harrier's words made Liu Lin's eyes red, his fists were clenched tightly, and his nails were pierced into his palms. But after a while, he slowly relaxed, and his face returned to normal.
"But according to the information I received, one of you was captured by the people of Najiangchuan today. If he confesses, I will still be implicated by you. Liu Lin took a deep breath and said slowly.
Seeing that Liu Lin was finally willing to talk normally, Harrier was also relieved in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Grandpa Guo doesn't have to worry. These brothers are all dead soldiers who have followed King Chuang for many years, and even if they die, they will not say anything. Unless it falls into the hands of an eagle dog like Jinyiwei, it may not be able to survive. However, the King of Qin had just entered the city, and although the troops in his hands were strong, he would not have anyone under his command who knew how to torture. It is impossible for him to hand over people to Jinyiwei, after all, he will not be at ease with Jinyiwei. And isn't there still Grandpa Guo among the Jinyi Guards? ”
Although Liu Lin had a very bad premonition in his heart, he had nothing to do, so he had to believe his words and was helplessly silent.
Harrier is a real dead man, he was a ranger back then, he did things impulsively, offended a big family in his hometown, was bullied by a big family, sneaked into the other party's house in the middle of the night in a fit of anger and killed the whole family, and finally was wanted by the government, arrested and put in prison, ready to be executed after the autumn.
As a result, the Dashun army attacked the city, and the officials and officials died and fled, and this guy was rescued by the Dashun army.
This kind of person acts impulsively, admits death, stresses righteousness, and believes that Li Zicheng is his reborn parent, so he follows Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng saw that this guy was bold and careful, and he was good at roosters and dogs, and he also had a group of brothers, so he took him in and asked him to form a fine work camp.
This guy also lived up to Li Zicheng's expectations, every time before the Dashun army attacked the city, he first mixed into the city, spread rumors, created chaos, or assassinated the officials and guards in the city, and the Dashun army should be combined with the outside, and made a lot of meritorious contributions, so Li Zicheng was more trustworthy, and after Xiangyang became the emperor, he set up a yamen called the palace front division, and let this guy serve as the governor.
This palace front division is actually a larger and more complete spy agency, and the organizational structure also imitates the Jinyi guard setting.
However, their team is composed of a group of green-skinned gangsters, which cannot be compared with a spy organization like Jinyiwei, which has been inherited for more than 200 years.
To put it simply, one is Kang Shuaifu, and the other is Master Kong, although there is one less horizontal, but there is actually a lot of difference in the middle.
Li Zicheng, as a generation of heroes, must have the ultimate goal of conquering the capital and dominating the world. Therefore, it is natural to send a fine saku to infiltrate the capital early, on the one hand, to collect intelligence, and on the other hand, to plot against and buy the powerful officials in the capital as internal response.
Harrier is the leader of these fine works, sneaking in personally, and after some investigation and observation, they found Liu Lin and others of Wei Guogong.
Especially Liu Lin, this person has ambitions, has a city government, has connections in the army, and is also the leader among the nobles. If you can win over such a person, it will indeed be a great achievement.
But a person like Liu Lin can't be done by a ranger-born person like Harrier, so the news was reported to Li Zicheng, and Li Zicheng sent his military advisor Song Xiance to deal with Liu Lin.
Song Xiance is actually a scholar, but this guy has gone astray in reading, what Qimen Dunjia, the five elements gossip, and the astrological celestial machine are the Tao, and they can fool people.
At that time, Li Zicheng's proclamation as emperor was actually promoted by his famous prophecy of "eighteen sons ruling the world".
After Li Zicheng became the emperor, he went all the way north like a bamboo, and he was even more confident in Song Xiance.
After Song Xiance entered the city, he disguised himself as a wandering Taoist, and infiltrated the Wei Mansion under the guise of fortune-telling, and fooled Liu Lin, saying that he had the face of becoming a minister from the dragon, and he would enter the phase in the future, and it would not be a problem for generations to be rich and noble.
Liu Lin was ambitious, but he was moved by such a fool and decided to help Li Zicheng and become an internal response. And this harrier naturally entered the Guogong Mansion and pretended to be a steward.
Since then, he has provided Li Zicheng with a lot of news, which has made Li Zicheng's army even more powerful, winning consecutive battles, and approaching the capital all the way.
The successive victories of the Dashun army also made Liu Lin's ambition even more intense, and he believed more and more that Li Zicheng could enter the world, and he could become a minister of Conglong, and once again compose the glory and glory of the Liu family.
But all this was quickly broken after Jiang Chuan entered the customs with the Qin army.
Therefore, Liu Lin, who was unwilling, planned the assassination of Jiang Chuan at the instigation of Harrier.
But he failed and put himself in a desperate situation.
"Grandpa Guo, it doesn't matter if you fail once. We still have a chance. This King of Qin is heavily guarded by ironclad guards on weekdays, and there is almost no chance to attack. If there is a chance that he does not have a guard with him, once the villain gets close, he can definitely make him splatter blood five steps on the spot. As long as this person dies, his army will be leaderless. At that time, there will definitely be chaos, and when the Dashun army will make a comeback, the Qin army will definitely be broken. After the defeat of the Qin army, the capital was even more helpless. When the time comes, Grandpa Guo will wave his arms, and the responders will gather, and the army will be combined with the outside, and the capital will be broken with one blow, and Grandpa Guo will be the real minister of the dragon. ”
Harrier watched Liu Lin remain silent, and continued to encourage him to take another adventure.
Liu Lin knew that Jiang Chuan was not so easy to deal with, but he knew that he had no way out. If he doesn't do it again, once Jiang Chuan completely controls the power of the capital, then he will be a real dead end.
Although Harrier's so-called plan is almost tantamount to talking to himself, Liu Lin is now like a person who is about to drown, and grabbing a straw will be regarded as a hope for survival.
He was silent for a long time, and finally spit out a sentence with difficulty: "Three days later, the emperor will take the wind and wash the dust for Jiangchuan in the imperial garden, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will attend." ”
When the harrier heard this, his eyes lit up at once.
