When Zhang Xian heard Huanjie's words, he also nodded frequently, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "What Bo Xu said is good, this official almost wronged a good person, Zixu, this official knows that you let go of the enemy soldiers mainly to show that you keep your promises, but soldiers, sophistry, you are right to be honest, but you can't be honest with the enemy, such as Song Xianggong in the Spring and Autumn Period, who was defeated by Hongshui because of his unruly food, thus losing the great opportunity to dominate the world, and I hope that Zixu will take this as a warning in the future and don't make similar mistakes again." ”

Du Xian listened to Zhang Xian's serious words, and his heart was moved, and he hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for the teachings of Lord Taishou, and the last general will definitely keep it in mind." ”

After finishing speaking, he thanked Zhang Xian and Huan Jie, and then went back to the camp to rest.

Han Xuan couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when he saw that Du Xian was let go by Zhang Xian, but when he saw that Zhang Xian had spoken, he couldn't say anything more, so he returned to the mansion sullenly.

In the evening, Han Xuan was dining in the camp, and suddenly heard a report from his own soldiers, saying that an old man had come to visit.

Han Xuan was very puzzled when he heard this, he didn't know who the deceased came to visit at this time? But he did not slack off, and let them in.

After a while, I saw a black man with a short figure coming in from outside, looking very shrewd and mighty.

"I wonder who this gentleman is? What's the matter with coming to the next official? Han Xuan saw that he had never seen each other, so he hurriedly asked suspiciously.

Unexpectedly, someone entered the camp, so he bowed and said: "See General Du, the last general is the general of Fenwu Liu Qi's account, named Liu Yong, who came to deliver a letter to the adults on the order of my general, and the general does not know the specific situation, and please ask the general to retreat left and right, and he will know the details after reading the letter." ”

Han Xuangang wanted to say that the other party recognized the wrong person, but as soon as he heard that the other party called himself General Du, and heard that Liu Qi came to deliver the letter, he expected that the "General Du" in the other party's mouth must be Du Raid, so he turned off the attendant and said quietly: "Bring the letter to me." ”

The visitor agreed, and respectfully handed the letter to Han Xuan.

Han Xuan opened the letter, read it again, and couldn't help but gasp, because this letter was really sent by Liu Qi to Du Xi, and wrote in the letter: "The general knows that General Zixu is a loyal and righteous man, and the general Xiang is sheltered in my Xiangyang, and my father praised the general for his loyalty and purity, and now the general promised to break Linxiang, which is really fortunate in Changsha, Jingzhou, and the people, and did not end the war in Jingzhou as soon as possible, so that the people can enjoy peace again. At that time, our army will attack the city on a large scale, and on the day of the city, it will be worshiped by the general as the Changsha Taishou, if this oath is violated, Liu Qi will not die well. ”

Han Xuan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, nodded and said lightly: "Due to the urgency of time, the general does not have to reply to the letter, you go back to tell General Fenwu, the general must obey the order, three days later, we will raise the fire at the south city gate, just see the last general raise fire as a signal, then attack the city, this will be the internal response, and order someone to quietly open the city gate." ”

The man nodded, then said goodbye to Han Xuan and left quietly.

Seeing the person leaving, Han Xuan couldn't help but shoot the letter on the desk, and scolded: "Thief Du Attack, this official is almost deceived by you, poor this official and Lord Taishou trust you so much, I didn't expect you to really collude with the enemy." What else do you have to say this time? ”

After finishing speaking, Han Xuan carefully carried the letter into his arms, and then ordered someone to prepare a horse and rushed to the Taishou Mansion to see Zhang Xian overnight.

"I don't know if Lord Han is still coming to see this official so late, what's the matter?" Seeing the resentment on Han Xuan's face, Zhang Xian hurriedly asked strangely.

Han Xuan took out the letter from his arms, handed it to Zhang Xian, and said hatefully: "Lord Taishou will know after reading this letter, hehe, fortunately the other party sent the wrong letter, otherwise, I am afraid that all of us will become prisoners of Liu Qi's subordinates." ”

Zhang Xian unfolded the letter with a puzzled expression, and then read it slowly.

After reading it, Zhang Xian shouted: "I really didn't expect that Du Zixu, a thief, really colluded with Liu Qi, and he would trust him so much at a loss." Lord Han, you will now lead the general's personal soldiers, go to the camp to capture Du Xian, and bring him to see me. ”

"No." Han Xuan was proud in his heart, and immediately took Zhang Xian's personal soldiers to get people.

About an hour later, I saw Du Xi being escorted to the Taishou Mansion.

"I don't know why you captured the last general?" Du Xian saw Zhang Xian and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"Good thief, you're still pretending to be confused, let's see what it is?" Zhang Xian sneered, and ordered Han Xuan to open Liu Qi's letter and let Du Xian read it.

"Du Xian, what else do you have to say now? Hehe, if it weren't for you collaborating with the enemy, then why would Liu Qi ask you to attack the city? Look at it, he told you all the secret codes agreed upon by both of you, the time of the siege, etc., is there any falsehood? ”

Du Xun immediately shouted: "My lord, the last general is wronged, it must be Liu Qi'er who deliberately designed the last general, and if he wants to carry out that divisive plan, adults must not fall for Liu Qi'er's evil." ”

Zhang Xian and Han Xuanquan both sneered: "At this time, you still dare to quibble?" ”

At this moment, Huan Jie came to the mansion and couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Du Raid being captured, and hurriedly asked the reason, but Han Xuan sneered and explained all this qiē, and sent the letter to Huan Jie.

Huan Jie, after reading the letter carefully, said: "Lord Taishou, the last general thinks that there is a problem here, first of all, since it is a secret letter, how can the name of Zixu be mentioned?" Secondly, since Zixu was ordered to defend the city, it was natural that the situation was changing rapidly, how could the time be determined so accurately? Also, since Liu Qi sent someone to deliver the letter, he would naturally send a shrewd and clever person, how could he send such a careless person? Unexpectedly, the letter was sent by mistake and sent directly to Lord Han's mansion. ”

Zhang Xian nodded, and just wanted to speak, but heard Han Xuan sneer: "Mr. Huan's words sound reasonable, but they are very inappropriate, Lord Taishou, please think about it, which one of the messengers does not address the other party?" Otherwise, how can you let the other party know that it was given to you? This second point, since Liu Qi is in a hurry to attack the city, it is natural to accurately determine the time, place, code and other things, not to mention that the letter said that Du Zixu should find a way to transfer the army to the north gate, which means that even if the army is at the south gate, it will be fine, anyway, Du Zixu can transfer it away, as for this last point, it is not a reason, because everyone knows each other, there is no sign in the camp of all the adults in Linxiang City, isn't it normal to send the wrong one? Hugh said that it is an outsider, that is, when we all make mistakes. ”

When Zhang Xian heard this, he nodded approvingly and said: "What Lord Han said is good, that's right, Du Xian, I really didn't expect that you look like a loyal person on the outside, but in fact, you are such a filthy person. ”

But seeing Huan Jie, he hurriedly said: "My lord is angry, there is no real evidence for this matter, we are unwise to kill the general without conclusive evidence, not to mention that now the soldiers are coming to the city, if we kill the meritorious generals, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, once the army's heart is shaken, I am afraid that the last general will be owned by Liu Qi in the near future." ”

Zhang Xian was stunned when he heard this, thought for a moment, and then hummed: "If it weren't for Boxu's face, I would not spare it today, and I would first dismiss him from his post and send him back to the house. ”

After Du Raid was escorted away, Zhang Xian looked at Huan Jie and asked slowly: "Boxu, now that Liu Qi is secretly asking Du to attack me in Linxiang, how should we deal with it?" ”

Before Huan Jie could speak, he heard Han Xuan say: "This matter is simple, let's make a plan, since Liu Qi asked us to raise the fire as the number, then we will raise the fire as the number, as long as we earn his army to the city, we will do our best to fight the army, and we are worried that Liu Qi will not be captured by us?" Hehe, didn't Du Xian say that he was wronged? If Liu Qi really attacked the city according to the agreement three days later, and fell into our plan, it would prove that he was indeed collaborating with the enemy, if Liu Qi did not come as promised, then Du Qi was really wronged, and the lower officials will apologize to him personally. ”

Zhang Xian nodded and said to Huan Jie: "What does Mr. think of this plan?" ”

Huan Jie also nodded and sighed: "It seems that this is the only way, after three days, whether Zixu is wronged or not will naturally be seen." ”

"Okay, since that's the case, then let's wait and see if I, Zhang Xian, have really wronged Du Xian? If Zixu is wronged, the official is also willing to plead guilty to him, and promise that he will never have the slightest suspicion of him from now on. Zhang Xian looked at Han Xuan and Huan Jie, and said slowly: "No matter what, we should also prepare for Liu Qi's attack on the city in three days, and the specific arrangements will be taken care of by Lord Han, where is Han Xuan?" This official appointed you as a former military captain, concurrently serving as the commander of Linxiang County, and taking full responsibility for the destruction of the enemy in three days. ”

"No. Lord Taishou can rest assured, the last general will definitely beat Liu Qi to the ground. Han Xuan was extremely proud in his heart, took the order, said goodbye to Zhang Xian, and then went to arrange the ambush of Liu Qi's army.

"I hope Zixu can get through this hurdle, alas, I really didn't expect the situation to develop to this scene, this Liu Qi is so scheming, so vicious strategy, if it weren't for the trust in Zixu's conduct, I'm afraid even I believe that he is suspected of defection."

Huan Jie shook his head slowly, sighed softly, and then said goodbye to Zhang Xian and returned to his tent.

At this time, in Liu Qi's camp, Liu Qi was giving an order to prepare to attack the city in the evening of three days, and secretly explained to the generals, so that they would be like this when the time came, this time they must completely force the counterattack against Du, on the one hand, to let themselves get a good general, and on the other hand, to attack Linxiang City and completely complete the task of quelling the rebellion in Jingnan.

"Hehe, Du Zixu, Du Zixu, you still can't escape from the hands of the general, this time the general has a multi-pronged plan and a series of clever plans, I don't believe that you still don't surrender to me." Liu Qi smiled faintly and muttered.
