It's dog days, and it's still hot.

After several days of high temperatures, I finally looked forward to a rain cloud, and there seemed to be a dampness in the air. However, this trace of humidity did not alleviate the hot weather in Binh Duong in the slightest. On the contrary, because of this humidity, Pingyang was shrouded in a hot and humid air. Even if the sun is no longer scorching, sitting in the room, even if it is motionless, will be wet and white sweat, which makes people feel even more uncomfortable.

There was a slight breeze, but it couldn't stir the luxuriant foliage.

Tian Du was wearing a cardigan, shirtless, and his face was a little gloomy.

"Please also think twice, Wang Ke recruited you to go to Lu County to wait at this time, but I am afraid of bad intentions. The old Qin people had already seen the flaws, and Tian An had sent assassins to assassinate the old Qin Qincha, which exposed Yingyi. Now, Naqin almost went to Jibei County, but suddenly turned to Defective Hill...... If you go to Lu County, it will be like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and there will be more than one luck...... Don't go, don't go. ”

Yan is the word of Tiandu.

Tian Du, who is over forty years old, is about eight feet tall, has broad shoulders and a round waist, and is born with a strong force.

However, perhaps influenced by Qilu culture, there is a bookish atmosphere between the eyebrows. He played with the knife cloth in his hand, sat quietly in the courtroom, and said nothing. On either side of him, Zhang Liang and Li Zuoche were sitting upright, both looking at Tian Du nervously.

After Li Zuoche heard that Liu Kan had changed his route, he immediately led people to Pingyang.

As soon as he settled, he heard that Wang Ke, the county guard of Xue County, had sent someone to recruit Tiandu to discuss matters in Lu County. Whether it was Li Zuoche or Zhang Liang, they immediately understood the mystery. So, Li Zuoche immediately came to dissuade him, while Zhang Liang was on the side, silently calculating.

Tian Du twisted his black beard and was silent.

Some of the gloomy eyes lit up. Staring at Zhang Liang with his head bowed and pondering.

Let's be honest. He didn't like the man. It can't be denied. This Zhang Liang is very capable. And he has a grudge against Lao Qindi. It's also from the heart.

But...... He's so selfish!

from the surface. Zhang Liang instigated turmoil in Qidi. It was to alleviate the pressure on the anti-Qin clique south of the river. But in reality? Chen Jun and other places, once the soldiers and horses of the Qin army took action, they would talk. The direct beneficiary is not the Chudi anti-Qin clique. It is a descendant of the old Koreans.

Everyone knows that Lao Qin lives in Nanyang, Chen County and other places. On the one hand, it is to monitor Jiangnan. On the other hand, there is also the suppression of Yingchuan, Sanchuan County and other anti-Qin groups in the old Han and Wei places. In particular, Yeongcheon-gun. It was the territory of the old Koreans. The soldiers and horses of Lao Qindi directly monitored every move of Yingchuan County. For the descendants of the old Koreans. There is undoubtedly a lot of pressure. Zhang liang. It's Korean!

I want to be at the beginning. Zhang Liang appeared in Qidi. When lobbying Tian Du and other people. The result is a very beautiful blueprint.

Tian Du thought so, so he couldn't wait to contact Tian An and others, intending to implement Zhang Liang's plan in the land of Qilu.

Available over time. Tian Du gradually saw a hint of clues.

All of Zhang Liang's plans are not for everyone. He is a descendant of the old Korean aristocracy, and what he thinks in his heart is to revive the old Korea.

Qilu or Chudi.

After fighting to the death with the old Qin people, it seems that only South Korea can benefit.

Zhang Zifang's heart is well known to passers-by. Although Tian Du wanted to stop the plan, it was already difficult to ride the tiger, so he had to go on hard.

In comparison, Tian Du admires Li Zuoche more.

Maybe no better than Zhang Liang's planning. But he is at least dedicated to the public. This time, Li Zuoche hurried to Pingyang to report the news, and you can see the quality of his character. It's a pity that although Li Zuoche is a famous general, compared to Zhang Liang, his reputation is greatly inferior.

As for the reason?

On the one hand, Li Zuoche is still young, and on the other hand, Zhang Liangbo's action of stabbing Qin has added a halo to him.

Tian Du saw that Zhang Liang was silent, and he felt even more unhappy in his heart. Didn't you still talk about plans before? Why did you become dumb again at this time?

"What Shaojun said, Tian is not unaware." Tian Du hesitated for a moment. He said in a deep voice: "It's just that Pingyang is not ready yet." The troops and horses scattered all over the place will be assembled in at least seven days. If I don't go to Lu County, won't I be giving the old Qin people a handle? When the time comes, they will definitely send troops to arrest me under the pretext that I will refuse to be called, and it will be impossible to escape the conflict. ”

"But if you go, what is the difference between throwing yourself into a trap?

The old Qin people will definitely detain you and then send troops to Pingyang...... The result is the same. Yangong. Please also think twice. ”

After Li Zuoche finished speaking. Stood up and wandered a few steps around the courtroom.

Suddenly stopped, "Or." Do we leave Binh Duong now? ”

Tian Du smiled, "Tian Du who left Pingyang is like a rootless wanderer." My foundation is in Binh Duong, in Xue County...... Without a foundation, how is the difference between the land and death? Shaojun, I know your kindness, Tian Mou's heart understands. However, Tian will never leave Pingyang easily. ”

Li Zuoche really wanted to say that he was staying in the green mountains and was not afraid of no firewood.

But when he thought about it again, he could understand Tian Du. How can this local complex be discarded casually? Everything in Tiandu is in Xue County, in Binh Duong. If he leaves here, he will be no different from ordinary people. Li Zuoche has a deep understanding of this. I think that after his grandfather was killed, he could have gone to Daijun with his father. It was the foundation laid by his grandfather, and it had a prestige that even King Zhao could not match.

However, his father chose to leave Zhao.

Wandering in a different place for many years, nothing has been achieved. When Li Zuoche went to Daijun again, he was already a person.

On the contrary, General Chai was just a junior general under his grandfather's account, and in terms of fame and ability, he could not be compared with Li Zuochedi's father. After the fall of the Zhao State, General Chai did not flee from the Zhao State, but chose to return to his hometown of Jianpu. Relying on the strength of the township party, more than ten years have passed, General Chai has a team of 2,000 soldiers and horses, and the tycoons from all over the country have great respect for the father and son of the Chai family.

Li Zuoche sometimes thinks that if his father stayed in Daijun back then, what kind of achievements would he have now?

It's really hard to say this kind of thing. Looking at Tian Du, Li Zuoche suddenly felt a trace of emotion, and sat down silently again.

"Mr. Ofan, do you have a clever plan?"

Tian Du glanced at Zhang Liang calmly. Ask.

"Under the rule of Lao Qin, there are really a lot of talents!"

Zhang Liang smiled bitterly, "Just made a small change, and it made me and others fall into a dilemma." It's not that Zhang Liang's plan is wrong, it's really the wrong time...... Yan Gong, now the strategy to break the game. Not for nothing. Since there is no way back, why not take a gamble? ”

"Take a gamble?"

Li Zuoche was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood, "What does Mr. Zhang mean...... Got up early? ”

Zhang Liang nodded, "Now all the soldiers and horses are preparing. The walls of Pingyang City are thick, and the local officials are also willing to obey the dispatch of Yangong. With the prestige of Yangong, he raised his arms and shouted. The righteous people from all over Xue County will definitely respond. As long as it lasts for seven days, the situation in Xue County will inevitably take a turn for the better...... When the time comes. Fu Gong sent troops from Linzi to contain the soldiers and horses of Langya, Donghai and Surabaya counties.

As soon as the land is in chaos, the Jiangnan Righteous Army can take advantage of the situation to attack, although it may not be able to destroy Lao Qin, but it can also drive Qin Gou back to Guanzhong. ”

Tian Du frowned and fell into deep thought.

Zhang Liang's strategy is not without feasibility.

Is it possible to succeed? Tian Du is really not sure......

glanced at Li Zuoche, but saw this young man whom he admired very much, and nodded at him.

Obviously. Li Zuoche agrees with Zhang Liangdi's opinion!

"In that case, it's up to the gentleman."

Tian Du made up his mind, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. In fact, many times this is the case, when you can't make up your mind, you are in a dilemma and hesitate. But once you make a decision, even if you know that you will fail, you will feel comfortable. Success or failure. Just look at the next action.

So, in the evening of the same day, Tian Du set up a banquet in the mansion and invited Pingyang officials and squires.

These people have already expressed their allegiance to Tian Du.

Therefore, when Tian Du explained the situation, all the people agreed and decided to announce the incident on the second day. In the name of Xingfu Tianqi, Tian Du proclaimed himself a general. And after making proper arrangements for the personnel of all parties. Left behind the people of his cronies, and consulted in the house.

Since there is going to be an incident. It's all about things.

Li Zuoche was also left behind by Tian Du to discuss tomorrow's plan of action together. On the contrary, Zhang Liang did not participate in this secret meeting.

"Shaojun, in your opinion, can we succeed?"

Li Zuoche bit his lip and said with a wry smile: "It's hard to say. It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen...... If we start an incident in a hurry this time, there will definitely be a lot of inconsiderate places, and it is difficult to predict the outcome of the outcome. However, what Mr. Zhang said is not bad, Yangong has been operating in Binh Duong for many years and has a deep foundation. If it can survive seven days, after the arrival of the rebels from all walks of life, maybe the situation can really be saved. ”

"I don't believe him!"

Tian Du suddenly burst out of a sentence.

Li Zuoche knew the meaning of Tian Du's words. But I don't know what to say......

Zhang Liang was a little anxious. exposed Tian An too early, and underestimated Lao Qin's ability too much. However, it cannot be denied that although Zhang Liangdi's plan is selfish, there is nothing wrong in the general direction. What's more, Bo Langsha stabbed Qin, making Zhang Liang famous. Whether in terms of ability, fame and qualifications, Li Zuoche is not qualified to comment.

Tian Du is now saying words of distrust of Zhang Liang in front of him, and to a certain extent, he can be regarded as his own Li Zuoche.

But what if you can be your own person?

Know your own business! Li Zuoche knows very well that he is not qualified to be compared with Zhang Liang.

Therefore, Li Zuoche could only respond to Tian Du's words with silence.

But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the house...... Immediately after, footsteps hurriedly sounded. An old family member stumbled open the door of the study, and after rushing into the house, he knelt on his knees with a thud, "Master, something is wrong!" ”

Tian Du was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "What's the alarm?" ”

This old family is his confidant, and his ancestors have been serving in the Tian family since the father of Meng Weijun, that is, the youngest son of King Qi Wei, Jingguo Jun Tian Ying. This old family has experienced a lot of things, but they have never been so embarrassed today. Tian Du couldn't help but wonder.

The old family member said, "Qin Gouzi, Qin Gouzi is here!" ”

Tian didn't react, "What did you say?" ”

"Sir. Qin Gouzi's army is coming......"

This time, Tian Du can be regarded as reacting. His face suddenly turned pale, and he took two steps forward and grabbed the old man's collar.

"You say it again?"

"Qin Gouzi's army suddenly arrived under the city and blocked the two gates of Pingyang. Now, there is chaos in Binh Duong City...... The county magistrate has led people to the city to watch. And sent someone to deliver the letter, and asked the lord to decide. ”

Tian Du's head buzzed, and the whole person was stunned.

How is this possible......

Yesterday, I heard that Liu Kan, the governor of Surabaya, was preparing in the flawed hill. Moreover, the envoy of Lu County only left Pingyang today, and he did not hear that the Qin army had any signs of mobilization. Why did the soldiers come to the city all of a sudden, could it be that the old Qin people invited divine soldiers?

Tian Du was stunned, but Li Zuoche was very sober.

"Old butler. Do you know how many soldiers and horses the Qin army has? Who is the Lord? ”

"The county magistrate sent someone to say that the Qin dog soldiers came from Lu County and Bianqiu in two ways. The Qin army outside the east gate. The main general seems to be Xue Junwei, about two or three thousand people; And the main general outside the West Gate seems to be surnamed Liu. The black pressure is pressing, and it is not clear how many soldiers and horses there are.

However, it is said that the vanguard was a cavalry army, about two or three hundred men.

There are countless foot soldiers, and it is not clear for a while. The county magistrate asked people to ask, what should I do? ”

Liu Kan, here!

Li Zuoche couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, although he was a little flustered. But I was very curious. He really wanted to see what kind of person he was who had made great achievements in Northern Xinjiang and was able to make it clear that he was a veteran of Cheng Gong. First, he asked the envoy to come to conquer Tiandu, and then with the momentum of thunder, he led the soldiers and horses to arrive in Pingyang unconsciously...... This plan is not very simple.

And the most important thing is that Liu Kan made this plan, but I am afraid that it was also a temporary idea.

Such a person. What does it look like?

Li Zuoche thought of this and immediately felt excited.

He pushed Tian Du and said softly, "Yangong, let's go to the city to explore?" ”

"Ah, that's how it should be, that's how it should be!" Tian Du also reacted, and immediately ordered someone to take the drape, put on the sword, and walked out of the mansion with Li Zuoche.

When I go out. Tian Du suddenly remembered something. He asked his family, "Where is Mr. Zifang?" ”

"Huh?"

The old family was stunned for a moment, then shook their heads and said, "I haven't seen Mr. Zhang...... After dinner. Mr. Zhang seemed to go back to his room to rest, and he never appeared. ”

Tian Du frowned, and said in his heart: It's all at this time, why don't you see your Zhang Liang's shadow?

This person, once he has prejudice against others, no matter what the other party does, he will feel unpleasant. I think that at the beginning, when Zhang Liang first went to Pingyang to lobby Tiandu, Tiandu regarded Zhang Liang as a god. And now? But no matter how you look at it, I think Zhang Liang is not good.

But on the surface, Tian Du is quite polite.

"Inform Mr. Zhang and ask him to meet him at the head of the city."

After speaking, Tian Du took Li Zuoche to board the light car outside the mansion and went towards the city gate at a gallop.

At the head of the city, the magistrate of Pingyang was as pale as paper, staring nervously at the outside of the city.

After Tiandu Li Zuoche landed in the city, the county magistrate hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Yangong, it's Qin Jun...... It was stationed in the Yishan camp of Qin

Yishan camp?

That was the base of the Qin army in Xue County.

Unexpectedly, Wang Ke's degree was so fast, while sending people to recruit and hide people's eyes; On the other side, the Yishan battalion has already been mobilized.

Tian Du held on to the battlements and looked out of the city.

The city is brightly lit, and the bright pine trees are connected together, and it looks like a sea of fire from a distance.

The swords and guns were reflected in the firelight, and they refracted a glimmer of light. Tian couldn't help but gasp, biting his lip, unable to speak for a long time.

"Yangong, otherwise...... Let's go down! ”

The magistrate of Pingyang County is a native of Xue County, and he is quite familiar with poetry and books. The ability is not particularly outstanding, but it is quite eye-catching. I think that at the beginning, when Tian Du wooed him, he drew a wonderful blueprint. The county magistrate couldn't help but be moved, coupled with this local complex, so Hetian reached an agreement. But now. When he saw the Qin army's soldiers and horses, he couldn't help but be afraid.

If you think about it carefully, how mighty was the million-strong army back then?

But under the attack of Lao Qin, he fled from the wind and was quickly defeated. Millions of Qi troops are still like this. Now with only 2,000 people in Pingyang, can they really stop the old Qin soldiers? After all, he is a scholar, and under such circumstances, the county magistrate can't help but regret it.

Tian Du looked calm, turning a blind eye to the scene under the city.

He glanced at the county magistrate and just smiled slightly, "Shaojun, Tian has a reluctant request." I hope Shaojun can help. ”

Li Zuoche nodded, "But by the orders of the Yan Gong." ”

"The Qin army outside the city here is the camp of Diyi Mountain led by Wang Ke...... And I will bring eight hundred men to watch here. But Qin Gouzi outside the West Gate. I also want to ask Shaojun to bother more. Now that he has come to this point, it is obvious that Lao Qin has seen the flaw. Even if we surrender now, I'm afraid that we will end up in a different place. Qin Gou is brutal, and only by fighting hard, he may be able to get a glimmer of life. ”

Li Zuoche intervened and said, "I am willing to listen to the dispatch of the Yangong." ”

Tian Du looked around the city, and suddenly shouted: "Qin dog is tyrannical, if you don't fight to the death, the whole city will die." Tian started an incident today in order to revive the glory of my great Qi. You are extremely Qi people. Fight bravely. In just a few days, the rebels will surely come to their aid.

When the time comes, the inside and the outside should be combined, and the Qin dog can be wiped out.

The eldest husband should mention the three-foot Qingfeng and fight for fame...... Imada swore in the name of his ancestors that he would fight with Qin Gouzi to the end. ”

Qiang-

As Tian Du's voice fell, the dragon's groan sounded.

The sword flashed in the air with a touch of cold light, and the blood light collapsed.

The county magistrate didn't have time to shout, and the head had already landed. A fountain of blood gushed out. Splashed on the hunting sound next to it.

"If there is any more talk, kill him!"

"Bloody battle to the end, bloody battle to the end......"

The shouts of the Qi people echoed above the city, echoing in the night sky.

However, the Qin army under the city was not affected at all, and was still acting in an orderly manner. On the head of the city, the corners of Li Zuoche's eyes couldn't help twitching slightly, and there was something strange in his heart.

The Qin army attacked the city, and it has always tried each other with an arrow array first. How this time. No movement at all?

Could it be that the Qin army didn't want to attack the city tonight?

Wrong. I'm afraid that there is a trick in this......

Li Zuoche thought of this and was about to remind Tian Du to pay attention. The sound of horses' hooves came to the ground, and the old family of Tiandu rode along the gallop road and rushed to the head of the city. Turning over and dismounting, the old family ran to Tian Du's side in a panic and whispered a few words in his ear.

Tian Dudi's face suddenly changed!

It became extremely ugly, and a pair of eyes flashed with terrifying murderous intent.

"Are you sure?"

"The old slave is sure...... The old slave searched in the house several times, but he couldn't find it. According to the doorman of Jiaomen, after the dinner, he seemed to see Mr. Zhang go out. But where exactly it went, the sect is not clear. Master, do you want people to look for it again? ”

"No need!"

Tian Du said viciously.

Li Zuoche stepped forward and asked softly, "Yangong, what's wrong?" ”

Tian Du gritted his teeth, lowered his voice and said in Li Zuoche's ear: "Zhang Liang ran away...... After the dinner, he was seen leaving the house and then disappeared. I guess he sensed something was wrong and fled early...... Phew, what a hero, if Tian sees him again, he will definitely take his level. ”

Zhang Liang ran away and Li Zuoche couldn't help but panic in his heart.

Tian Du said: "Shaojun, now that most of the wealthy families in Pingyang are gathered in my mansion, I want to go back and appease them." Judging by the posture of the Qin army, it may not attack tonight. Just worry about the young gentleman and wait for me to inspect the city. If there is any change in the Qin army, Shaojun can go straight to Xicheng and send someone to inform me at the same time...... So far, everyone can only hug together and fight with Qin Gouzi...... Would you like to help me? ”

"Do you dare to obey your fate?"

Li Zuoche hurriedly agreed to come down, and Tian Du over there also took people down the city and boarded the car.

At the head of the city, he observed the movements of the Qin army for a while. After Li Zuoche confirmed that the Qin army had no intention of attacking, he took his men and horses and headed for Xicheng. Along the way, he kept thinking. Why didn't the Qin army attack immediately? Even if you can't take Pingyang, it is enough to make Pingyang City, which was already in a panic, even more flustered. What is the reason why they besiege but do not attack?

If it's just Wang Ke. Li Zuoche may not be worried.

Wang Ke is just a scholar, and he is not familiar with military affairs, so there is no need to worry. But the other party still has a Fuping old man...... That guy is a figure who plotted to defeat the Huns in the northern Xinjiang. Although Li Zuoche had never seen it, he knew very well how fierce the Huns were.

Tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands......

But because of that old man, the whole army was wiped out. Such an opponent. Don't underestimate that. The calmer the Qin army was, the more conspiracy there became.

Li Zuoche was terrified, and after ascending to the West City Gate Tower, this panic became even stronger.

Outside the city, only black pressure can be seen...... The Qin army didn't light the lights, so it wasn't clear how many people there were.

I could only hear the sound of Daxu hunting in the wind.

Faintly. You can also hear horses neighing in the distance. Holding a pergola in his hand and looking into the distance, he could see a vague black shadow. It seems to be dust and smoke. It's like a ghost...... Li Zuoche observed for a long time, only to feel that his hairs stood on end, and he couldn't help but shiver.

I really want to face to face with that old man!

If you can take a look at it, you might be able to see some clues.

But the more Qin Jun didn't move, the more he played tricks like this, the more frightened Li Zuoche felt.

Could it be that the old man is ready to storm Pingyang after dawn? No, no. If it is so simple, then how can Liu Kan make meritorious contributions in Fuping? There are tricks, there are conspiracies! When Li Zuoche thought of this, he became more cautious, and ordered the soldiers at the head of the city to pay attention to the movements of the Qin army.

And just like that, time passed slowly......

The panic brought by the Qin army slowly disappeared as time passed. Li Zuoche dispatched supplies in an orderly manner. out of various commands. There is a way, it will be the courage of soldiers. Li Zuoche's actions also made the Pingyang defenders gradually stabilize.

Around the second watch, the city of Pingyang was silent.

A group of improvised soldiers began to inspect the streets and alleys of Binh Duong.

Tian Du also appeased the tycoons of Binh Duong in the house. Li Zuoche was finally able to catch his breath and sit upright at the head of the city to rest.

"In the past two days, has there been any abnormal situation in Binh Duong?"

He whispered to the old butler who was with him for advice. Tian Du was worried that Li Zuoche was not familiar with Pingyang, so he sent his henchman butler to assist.

"Anomaly?"

The old housekeeper glanced at Li Zuoche suspiciously. "My lord has always been very cautious in his work. There is no clue at all...... To say something out of the ordinary? The old slave couldn't remember. Shaojun should know that Pingyang is the only way from Teng County to Lu County. In the early years, Surabaya flower carving was popular, and there were many merchants passing by. But in the past two years, there have been fewer ...... Well, I do remember one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"The day before Shaojun came, a caravan entered the city."

"Caravans?"

The old butler nodded and said, "To be precise, it's a team...... I know that the owner's name is Peng Yue, and he is from Juye Ze Zhao Wangting. In his early years, he used to be a famous water bandit leader on Junozawa, but later, I don't know how, he got involved with Surabaya Huadiao, so he turned to the right line. In the past, the water bandits have turned into a cargo escort team. Business is booming. In the early years, I often passed by here.

However, in the past year or two, their business has grown bigger and bigger, and their fame has become more and more famous. Peng Yue no longer personally escorted the goods...... When the escort entered the city that day, I saw Peng Yue also there. There were about 100 people and more than 20 cars into the county seat.

The old slave was still strange at the time, how could Peng Yue work for such a little goods? ”

Li Zuoche shook his head, glared at the old housekeeper, and suddenly asked, "Butler, is Peng Yue still in the city now?" ”

"It should be there...... Yesterday evening, I also saw the escorts drinking in the liquor shop. ”

"Ahh

Li Zuoche's hair all stood up all of a sudden, and he stood up all of a sudden, and shouted: "Do you know where the escort team is staying?" ”

"Of course I do!"

"Take me there...... Come on, go to see Yan Gong immediately, and say that Qin Gouzi has mixed into Pingyang City? ”

Li Zuoche said, pulled the old housekeeper and was about to get into the car.

Suddenly, I heard a fierce shouting from the direction of the east gate, followed by the flames, and someone shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack...... Qin Gouzi has entered the city! ”

I'm very sorry, July 1st is approaching, and I have to cooperate with the Propaganda Department to prepare for the July 1st Poetry Recitation Contest, and I have been busy for two weeks.

It's finally over......

Let's hope everything stabilizes.
