Chapter 558: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

"Listen up." Han Shige sneered, "I hope to hear a sincere Jianyi."

"The golden cicada sheds its shell." Li Fengyun said four words unhurriedly.

Han Shige frowned slightly, and then suddenly realized. Li Fengyun has always been under the banner of Han Xiangguo, and in this mutiny, Han Xiangguo has become famous, and the Song Yu Righteous Army is also well known, but the real white thief and the alliance rebel army have no trace, originally thought that this was a necessary measure to "protect" the King of Qi, but now it seems that it is the white thief's foresight, and he has prepared a way to retreat.

"It turns out that you want to blame Han Xiangguo, and the disaster will lead to the east." Han Shige praised in a mocking tone, "What a golden cicada out of its shell. I always thought that Han Xiangguo's escape from the Xingyang battlefield was caused by timidity and fear, but now I know that I have a lot to do with you. It's just that the reason why you have the conditions for the golden cicada to come out of the shell is because you hid it well, and there is no evidence to prove that you participated in this mutiny, to prove that you are on the battlefield of the Eastern Capital, but so-and-so does not have such an advantage, how can so-and-so get the golden cicada out of the shell?"

Li Fengyun laughed at Han Shige's ridicule, "You think things are too complicated, if you think things are simpler, it will be easy for you for the golden cicada to come out of its shell."

Han Sang-kook understood as soon as he heard it. Li Fengyun's so-called golden cicada shelling is to save his personal life, but this is something that Han Xiangguo absolutely cannot accept. What does it mean to him to save his life? It's just a lost dog, with no dignity, no status, no strength, and life is better than death. He must bring the army out, if he has the army, he will have strength, status and dignity, he will be able to call for wind and rain, and if God favors him, he will even have the opportunity to compete for hegemony. Li Fengyun is a clear example, it is precisely because of his strength that both King Qi and Yang Xuangan, although they are trying to use him, but at the same time they are also very jealous of him, and they have to give him considerable attention and due status, no one dares to treat him as a dog, everyone regards him as a beast, so strength is the capital of survival, and strength is a qiē.

Han Xiangguo scoffed and asked disdainfully, "Are you an ignorant erectionist?" Or is it a drooping child? You can be insincere, but don't insult someone.

Li Fengyun knows Han Xiangguo's "bottom line", but how to solve it? If Han Xiangguo, in anger, acted recklessly at this critical moment and ruined the Xingyang battlefield, it would not only be Yang Xuangan who would be affected, but also himself and the entire alliance. This risk is too great, and Li Fengyun can't help but be cautious.

"Don't get me wrong." Li Fengyun shook his hand at Han Xiangguo again and again, and patiently explained, "The importance of the Xingyang battlefield is self-evident, if the Xingyang battlefield persists tenaciously and completes the containment task, it may be able to help Yang Xuangan successfully enter the pass. As you said, Yang Xuangan's real strength is very strong, and the number of troops does not prove the size of his strength, and Yang Xuangan has been carefully preparing for this mutiny for many years, and there may be various opportunities for breakthroughs hidden behind the temporary difficulties, so Yang Xuangan's chances of entering the pass are still very large. As long as Yang Xuangan enters Guanzhong, it is difficult to predict how the future will be displayed, and it is optimistically estimated that Yang Xuangan may dominate according to Guanlong. If Yang Xuangan is hegemonic, the new righteous prince will definitely win huge gains in the future with his endurance and humiliation at the moment."

"Don't talk about the future, painting bread to satisfy hunger is actually deception, which doesn't make sense to so-and-so." Han Xiangguo unceremoniously interrupted Li Fengyun's exhortation, "If the two of us change positions, are you still willing to persevere to the end on the Xingyang battlefield and sacrifice your life for Yang Xuangan?"

Li Fengyun was dumbfounded. Han Xiangguo was too willful, after the self-esteem and pride of the high nobles were "humiliated" by Yang Xuangan, he immediately began to take strong revenge, regardless of the overall situation and the consequences, what oaths, promises, and brotherhood were all thrown out of the clouds, and the friendship of interests was really terrible. However, Li Fengyun can also understand that if he is changed to himself, his allies will treat him like a dog and unscrupulously damage his own interests, and he will not be able to bear it. After having a bad relationship with Yang Xuangan on the battlefield of Mianchi before, he also "escaped" at the last moment of the decisive battle, which is the same as Han Xiangguo wanting to "leave" from the Xingyang battlefield at this moment.

Li Fengyun couldn't find a reason to persuade Han Shige. Yang Xuangan wants to use Han Shige to stick to the Xingyang battlefield to win the time to enter the pass, and Li Fengyun also needs Han Shige to stick to the Xingyang battlefield to win the time to cross the river to the north, so the Xingyang battlefield must hold on for a while, but at present, it seems that Li Fengyun is optimistic because he doesn't know Han Shige and his person, so he is now passive.

Li Fengyun looked at Li Min in desperation, hoping that Li Min would persuade Han Shige.

Li Min and Han Shige have a good relationship, before Li Fengyun easily won Yiquekou, and Li Min and Han Shige trust each other is directly related, but because of this, Li Min is even more reluctant to see Han Shige die in vain. At the same time, Li Min has selfish intentions, he and his father Li Zixiong are now weak, they have no right to speak in the alliance, they cannot effectively influence the alliance's decision-making, and they cannot ensure that the alliance will always seek benefits for King Qi, and whether King Qi can finally win the championship is directly related to whether their father and son and even the entire family can make a comeback and rebuild their glory, so this opportunity in front of him is too precious for Li Min, and he must seize it no matter what. As long as Han Shige crossed the river north with Li Fengyun with the army, he would inevitably form a strong alliance with their father and son, so that the strength of their father and son would increase dramatically, and they would inevitably be able to win a part of the right to speak in the alliance, which laid a solid foundation for their father and son to control the alliance step by step in the future. Fate should be controlled in your own hands, this sentence Li Fengyun often says, everyone understands this truth, but there are very few who can really do it.

"Brother, the chief manager is full of sincerity, but you were blinded by anger and didn't see it." Li Min stroked his beard and smiled, and said happily, "The golden cicada is out of its shell, since the chief manager of this plan can use it, why can't Brother use it?" Think again, think about it?"

Li Fengyun's face was slightly sluggish, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. [,! It was masked by a faint smile. Li Min is scheming, he has been deceived by his "low-key" all along, and the fatal blow at the critical moment is really unstoppable.

Han Shige was slightly stunned. Li Min used such an intimate title on such an occasion, obviously telling him unabashedly, you have to believe me. He believes in Li Min, who is now in a difficult situation and sympathizes with the same disease, and Li Min will not deceive him. Did you really misinterpret Li Fengyun? The golden cicada sheds its shell, and how does the golden cicada shed its shell? How did X leave the Xingyang battlefield with a few thousand troops? Li Fengyun has the banner of Han Xiangguo as a cover, and who is he looking for to cover?

Suddenly, he thought of Gu Jue, thought of Gu Jue, the assassin of Xingyang appointed by Yang Xuangan, and thought that Gu Jue had been a loyal subordinate of Yang Su, the old Duke of Yue. Gu Jue is a local prestige, is a middle-class and lower-class nobleman, in order to be a master, he must be attached to the Hongnong Yang family, must be the "eagle dog" of the old Yue Gong Yang Su, and must have the consciousness of charging for the Hongnong Yang family and breaking his bones.

Han Shige suddenly had an epiphany. You Li Fengyun can use Han Xiangguo's banner as a cover, and you can also use Gu Jue as a shield. With Gu Jue's loyalty to Yang Su, the old Yue Guogong, and his obedience to Hongnong Yang's orders, Gu Jue should not betray Yang Xuangan, and should abide by his promise, dedicate his life to Yang Xuangan and Hongnong Yang, and stick to the Xingyang battlefield until the last moment.

Han Shige smiled and thanked Li Fengyun. Li Fengyun said that he was suffering, and he also thought of Gu Jue's move, but his thoughts were completely different from Han Shige's, just imagine that you Han Shige, I, Li Fengyun, and even King Qi, all gave Yang Xuangan a knife in the back at a critical moment, what do you make Gu Jue think? Gu Jue is loyal to Yang Su, the old Yue Guogong, but may not be loyal to Yang Xuangan, the Xiaoyue Guogong, and the Hongnong Yang family, especially when it is related to his own survival and the interests of the Gu family, Gu Jue can still be the same in his heart and mouth, but promise to be righteous? Li Fengyun did not believe that human nature was selfish, and the strict hierarchy strengthened and strengthened by the system of the gate lord clan based on the nine grades of Zhongzheng further aggravated the selfishness of people, coupled with the "tempering and tempering" of more than 400 years of division and war, selfishness and self-interest have been deeply imprinted in the blood of the gate lord clan, and the mercenary desire of the scholar clan has reached the point of "reaching the peak", and now it has become the biggest obstacle to destroying the great cause of reunification.

Yang Xuangan can betray the Holy Lord, Han Xiangguo can betray the Mutiny Alliance, why can't Gu Jue betray Yang Xuangan? Just now, for the sake of his own interests, Li Min went against Li Fengyun's wishes in person, regardless of the future of the alliance, and directly wooed and instigated Han Shige, and pulled the team to cross the river north with me. This is tantamount to openly "shouting" to Li Fengyun, and this is where the nature of the children of the family lies.

That afternoon, Gu Jue Pegasus came.

Gu Jue was more than twenty miles away in Niuzhukou, received an urgent report from Han Shige, and hurried to the tiger prison, before entering the city, he saw that the army under the banner of Han Xiangguo was hurrying eastward, which made him suddenly have a bad premonition. Han Xiangguo had fled with the Song Yu rebels before, and the purpose of the alliance's chief Lu Xingxing to capture Jindi Pass was not to block the Weifu reinforcements who came to encircle and suppress, but to grab a way out for the alliance, and now Li Fengyun has helped Yang Xuangan finish the decisive battle, so seeing Li Fengyun on the Xingyang battlefield at this moment, does it mean that Li Fengyun is also going to escape with the alliance army? Could it be that the decisive battle has been defeated, and the form shì is already very unfavorable to the mutiny alliance?

When Gu Jue entered the customs and saw Han Shige, he asked eagerly without greetings, "Is the white thief going to escape?"

Han Shige shook his hand, signaling him not to worry, and then took out Yang Xuangan's letter. Gu Jue hurriedly read it, his expression immediately became solemn, and then he read it several times, and after pondering for a long time, he finally asked, "Where is the plan?"

"Two countermeasures." Han Shige said, "First, let the white thief escape, we are trapped on the battlefield of Xingyang, and we insist on one day at a time." At this point he asked solemnly, "How long do you think we can hold out?"

"How long we can hold out is not in the fight on the battlefield, but in the attitude of King Qi." Gu Jue sighed, "If the King of Qi gives up his mind and tries his best to storm Xingyang, we will be the turtle in the urn, and the time we will not hold on for too long, it will inevitably affect the westward advance of Yue Gong."

"Do you think King Qi's attitude will change? Yue Gong had just defeated Wei Wensheng on the battlefield of Michi, and the current form was very beneficial to us, so King Qi's attitude should be more positive." Han Shige deliberately probed.

"If King Qi's attitude is more positive, will the white thief flee in a hurry?" Gu Jue shook his head and sighed, "Although the decisive battle of Michi was won, the cost was too great and the losses were heavy, especially the death of Huainan Gong (Yang Xuanting), which dealt too much damage to the morale of the army. From a certain point of view, the road to the west of Yue Gong is not smoother, but more difficult." Gu Jue picked up the letter in his hand and shook it a few times, "It can be seen from this letter that Yue Gong's confidence has been shaken, and there is even a big mess of salary, otherwise there would definitely not be this letter, let alone make such a decision."

Han Shige's eyes showed appreciation, Gu Jue was worthy of being a general who followed the old Yue Gong Yang Su's southern expedition to the north, and he saw the hidden dangers behind the decisive battle at a glance.

"What's your second countermeasure?" Gu Jue asked.
