Zhang Jiao saw that the visitor reported that Dongjun was lost, and he didn't seem to be flustered, but took it for granted, and there was a hint of planning. Then the order was issued: "Let the army of Jizhou concentrate on Guangzong, abandon all the places on the northern periphery, and concentrate the forces to wait for reinforcements." The men and horses of the Eastern County rushed to support. ”

After dealing with the political affairs, Zhang Jiao returned to the inner room, walked into the house, opened the dark room mechanism in the study, and said to the people inside: "Sir, Li Xin has already taken the bait, can you do it?" ”

I only heard a hoarse voice say, "Dongjun, are you sure that Li Xin has sent troops to capture it?" ”

"Yes, as Mr. expected, the East County has been lost. What's next? ”

"Have you sent the men and horses you secretly mobilized to be transferred?"

"Mr. Hui's words, he is already on the way, and he will be able to reach Dongjun in a few days."

"Okay, I believe that these 80,000 horses will deal a fatal blow to Li Xin's troops in Dongjun. It is conceivable that Li Xin knew what it was like to be defeated in Dongjun. After saying that, a smug smile appeared on the face of the man in black.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiao also smiled, "Mr. Xie's help, I will definitely be rewarded in the future." ”

"Okay, you can go, just send things on time." With a wave of his hand, he turned his head and ignored Zhang Jiao.

Zhang Jiao retreated, and the man in black said gloomily: "Li Xin, Li Xin, this time I want to take revenge and let you know the consequences of offending my Sima Hui." ”

Yes, this person is Sima Hui, who used evil methods to seize Li Xin's luck that day, but never wanted to be devoured by the four spirits, the whole family was punished by heaven, and died one after another, and he himself was punished by heaven as if he died, but this also made him have nothing to love, and he was bent on finding Li Xin for revenge, so when he heard that Li Xin was appointed as the commander of the North Road, Sima Hui went to Guangzong and met Zhang Jiao to help Zhang Jiao deal with Li Xin.

At first, Zhang Jiao didn't pay much attention to this person who came to take refuge, but later after knowing that Li Xin had seized Dingzhen, Zhang Jiao remembered Sima Hui's admonition, so he respected him as a gentleman and asked him for advice. Originally, Zhang Jiao wanted to grant Sima Hui the position of military advisor, but Sima Hui resolutely refused. The reason is very simple, he can't directly be an enemy of Li Xin, in that case he will die directly from heaven, and he can only use the hands of others to achieve his own goals. So he asked Zhang Jiao to hide in the shadows to command the situation, Zhang Jiao asked the reason, Sima Hui pretended to be a lot of people, afraid that there would be a traitor to shirk, Zhang Jiao agreed very much.

Regarding the situation, Sima Hui's plan for Zhang Jiao was to immediately mobilize the troops of Dongjun, encircle Wei County, trap Wei County's troops, and at the same time fight a time difference, so that Li Xin could not even rescue, so as to crack Li Xin's layout. Although the plan is good, one thing that is missed is the asymmetry of information. For Li Xin, he has the "Heavenly Dao" organization, so he can easily get the information he wants, for Sima Hui, due to the collapse of the family, he suddenly lost the source of intelligence, and his intelligence relies more on the Yellow Turban Army, and Li Xin attaches great importance to intelligence, so the intelligence of the Yellow Turban Army is not very accurate. Especially this time, there were 50,000 people attacking Wei County, but for the Yellow Turban Army, they only knew that there were 30,000 incoming troops, so they thought that 80,000 people would be enough, not to mention that the Han court sent a large army to attack Yingchuan, and it was impossible for Dongjun to draw too many troops to support, and 80,000 was already the limit.

Zhang Jiao came out of the secret room over there, with a black face, he had been so angry, he had always been his orders to others, and his subordinates only had the share of obedientness, and which one was not respectful, the only thorn-headed Black Mountain's troops, and they were also incorporated by themselves, it was the spring breeze that was proud, and now he was treated like a servant, of course he was angry, of course he didn't have it on his face, because he wanted to rely on this gentleman to deal with Li Xin, but Zhang Jiao said gloomily: "If you want to be rewarded, you wait, After the defeat of Li Xin, I will 'reward' you well. ”

Putting aside this side, there are also people on Li Xin's side, Xu Shao, Huang Chengyan, and Pang Degong came to Li Xin's military camp together and talked to Li Xin about the cause and effect.

"It turns out that you are all under the Guigu Gate. Today I'm here to tell me about Sima Hui. ”

"Yes."

"So I'm caught up in the inheritance battle under the Guigu Gate, and I'm in a fateful duel?"

"What?" Xu Shao, Huang Chengyan, and Pang Degong were shocked. I didn't expect Li Xin to be a disciple of Guigu!

Seeing the surprised appearance of the three of them, Li Xin explained: "Yes, I am a subordinate of the Guigu Sect. ”

"It can't be!" Xu Shao blurted out.

"What's impossible?" Li Xin was surprised, because he didn't expect such a situation.

Pang Degong replied: "The Guigu Sect has always been a single line, and there can be no second line. Even if there is, then only one person will survive in the end due to the fateful game, and continue to inherit the ghost valley. The master never said that there were other apprentices. ”

"Isn't it possible for me to learn from books?" Li Xin began to make up nonsense, and he couldn't tell them that he had come through time.

"On the books?!" Huang Chengyan said in surprise.

"Senior brother, what's wrong?" The other two were puzzled.

"Senior brother, you don't know, there are indeed books about Guigu that have survived, and this is what the master told me when I was out of school. He said: "Everyone thinks that the inheritance of Guigu will always be a single line, but this is not the case. Master Zu also has a "Complete Book of Ghost Valley" left in the world, which records all the abilities of Master Zu. After it was written, Master Zu hid this book, saying that it was for fate. 'I also said it after learning what the teacher taught, because it's a fateful game, so there is always a part of the inheritance lost, although the art of war, strategy, divination, etc. are not missing, but others, such as tricks and other parts that have little impact on the game, have a lot of losses, and what is missing cannot be used in the game. The teacher hopes to find the "Ghost Valley Encyclopedia" to complete the inheritance. ”

"I see, so Yicheng have you found the "Complete Book of Ghost Valley"?"

"Yes." Li Xin could only bear the head.

"Can you show us the book?"

Li Xin could only make up nonsense: "This is difficult for me to do." ”

"Why!" The three brothers almost shouted.

"No way, the book has been destroyed according to the oath."

"It can't be! How can such a valuable book be destroyed. ”

Li Xin began to compile it, what strayed into the cave to get the "Ghost Valley Quanshu" on the stone wall, copied it, and destroyed it when he learned it, what he entered by mistake into the cave, and he couldn't find it back after coming out.

Xu Shao, Huang Chengyan, and Pang Degong felt very sorry, but there was no way, they could only say that they had no chance with the book, so they didn't talk about this topic, because Li Xin's identity was determined, it was not good to help Li Xin directly. Because it was a fateful battle in Guigu, he couldn't intervene directly, so he quit and returned to his hometown, preparing to train talents to indirectly help Li Xin fight against Sima Hui, after all, Sima Hui violated the door rules.

Li Xin only learned about the secrets of Guigumen at this time, so he understood why Guigumen, which had been silent for many years, would have Liu Bowen's Zhongxing. Li Xin immediately changed his strategy, and the flying pigeon passed the book to Guan Yu, and at the same time he was ready to respond, because another person in Guigu made a move, then Jizhou will be a hard battle.
