Chapter 152: Melee is King 4
Although the host of the Great Ci'en Temple, Jun Neng, wanted to give Qin Zhan a little hardship, but he didn't expect that one of his subordinates, the general Thirty-eight, would be killed by Qin Zhan like this, and he suddenly felt that he had miscalculated, and he regretted his mistake, because among the traitors hidden in the Great Ci'en Temple, there are not many powerful swordsmen like Thirty-eight, and his main goal is for Li Hong, but he wasted a master like Thirty-Eight on Qin Zhan, which is indeed a bit more than worth the loss. $10 top $10 points $10 small $10 said, w△ww.2+3wx.c≮om
Therefore, after discovering that Qin Zhan had killed Thirty-Eight at the cost of his own injuries, Yu Linwei slaughtered all the black-clothed assassins around him with Qin Zhan's encouragement. Jun Neng no longer paid attention to Qin Zhan and his party, and let them continue to search the temple, but moved his eyes to Li Hong outside the temple.
Paying such a big price tonight, killing Li Hong is their ultimate goal.
As long as Li Hong dies and the Taoist luck disappears, their Buddhism will surely take advantage of the situation and carry forward again. Therefore, for Jun Neng, in order to kill Li Hong tonight, it is worth it no matter how much it costs him, even if it is his own life.
Outside the temple, Li Hong was still standing in the rain under the support of Chen Gong and Wei Chi Xunyan and others, waiting quietly.
The current situation is that he can set a trap for him to drill, and he knows that this is a trap that can be used, but he can't help but get into it. Because he came to the Great Ci'en Temple tonight, just to kill Liu Ju's traitors, in addition to annihilating the traitors lurking in the Great Ci'en Temple, he also wanted to find out the leader of the traitors arranged by Liu Ju in Chang'an City, otherwise he would have launched an attack on the Great Ci'en Temple in such a way, it would be a bit more than worth the loss.
As far as Jun Neng is concerned, he has already paid so much tonight, if Li Hong is not fooled by him, he can't kill Li Hong, he will lose his life, and the price they pay today is difficult to redeem.
Therefore, he is now more anxious than Li Hong.
Now, as long as Li Hong doesn't step into the trap of Almighty for a moment, he can't sit back and reap the benefits of Almighty for a moment, and as long as Li Hong doesn't step into the trap of Almighty, it is impossible for him to find the real traitor leader.
The current stalemate between the two is just testing each other to see who can calm down.
This is a psychological war, a contest between two strengths, and a contest between the courage and courage of the two.
"Your Highness, it's time to act, right?" Wei Chi Xunyan was already a little uncomplacent, not that he was not calm enough, or Qin Zhan led a hundred Lin Wei to rush into the Great Ci'en Temple, and there was no news about it so far, this situation was very strange, and he couldn't help but worry about his nephew. In other words, he knew very well what Yu Linwei's strength was now, and he also knew the strength of the black-clothed assassins, and he was sure that as long as a master like Qin Zhan took the lead, thirty black-clothed assassins would be able to completely clean up Qin Zhan and his party by using the familiar environment and terrain in the Great Ci'en Temple.
"Don't worry, Qin Zhan won't die." Li Hong said in an affirmative tone, seeing Wei Chi Xunyan's incredible expression, he explained, "The famous general of the Tang Dynasty, the grandson of Qin Qiong, the Duke of Yiguo, is not as sloppy as you think. If he dies in such a small battle, then he will not want to lead the army to fight in the future, I am afraid that he will disgrace his ancestors. ”
What Li Hong said was light and light, but in the ears of Wei Chi Xunyan, it was a stormy sea.
Because he heard from the prince's mouth the prince's appreciation of Qin Zhan, if Qin Zhan can make meritorious contributions in this battle, his future will be smooth sailing, at least in the years when Li Hong was the prince and the monarch of the Tang Dynasty, Qin Zhan will not have the opportunity to lead the army to fight.
He was also shocked by the prince's test of Qin Zhan, throwing a son of the founding of the country like a dog and leaving him to fend for himself. When did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince become so cold?
"Do you think it's a bit too ruthless for Lone to do this?" Li Hong asked Wei Chi Xunyan.
Wei Chi Xunyan did not answer, but his silence expressed his acquiescence.
"Because time is running out for solitude." Li Hong said with a sigh.
"What does Your Highness mean?" Wei Chi Xun was shocked, could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made some big moves, or does he want to... Wei Chi Xunyan didn't dare to think about it below, because this was not what he should think about, because of the duty of a courtier, he wouldn't think about it if he didn't let him think about it. As Li Hong's intelligence leader, to put it bluntly, he is a dog raised by the prince, since this is the case, he will do whatever the prince says, so why bother thinking about it?
Therefore, as soon as he said this, he knew that he had asked more, so he lowered his head a little embarrassed.
Li Hong watched Wei Chi Xunyan's every move, and was very satisfied with his sense of proportion, so he explained, "In a few days, the father and mother will set off for Luoyang, and the Son of Heaven will leave the country, how can Lu Dongzan not have other thoughts, and it is estimated that the northwest border pass will not be too peaceful at that time." And Lone has been ordered to supervise the country, and if there is a problem at the northwest border, it is Lone's responsibility, and Lone cannot sit idly by. ”
"Now that the army of the Tang Dynasty is all gathered on the front line of Goryeo, and the northwest border pass has few soldiers, if the Tubo invades in a big way, how can we resist?" Li Hong asked, and seeing that Wei Chi Xunyan and Chen Gong were speechless, he opened his mouth and said, "Only by going to the border pass in person and going to the front line on behalf of my father and emperor to boost morale, can we fight against Tubo when the northwest generals are few and outnumbered." ”
"Lone goes to the northwest this time, he can't have no available generals around him, if Qin Zhan can stand the test tonight, let him quit Yulinwei and go to serve in the Northwest Army!" Li Hong said.
In fact, in addition to being optimistic about Qin Zhan's ability to command troops and train soldiers, he also wanted to take this opportunity to arrange his henchmen in the Northwest Army. After all, it is this Northwest Army that he will rely on in the future.
As for the Northeast Army, as long as Li Ji is still there, he doesn't even think about it.
"Of course, this time Lone went to the northwest, and the road will definitely be very dangerous, because Lone has already passed the inner line and told Lu Dongzan the news of Lone going to the northwest." Li Hong said lightly, "If Tubo does not invade the Tang Dynasty this time, if they really eat the ambitious leopard and dare to invade the Tang Dynasty, even if there are not many troops in the northwest, they will be left without returning." ”
After listening to Li Hong's words, Wei Chi Xunyan was terrified.
The prince's plan seems simple, but it is actually huge and complicated. The prince wanted to use himself as a bait to completely solve the marginal problem of Northwest Tibet, and it was still in the case of a small number of soldiers and few generals.
Of course, the same Wei Chi Xunyan also heard another meaning of the prince, that is, he wanted to use the opportunity of Tubo to invade the Tang Dynasty, wanted to recruit troops in the northwest, and wanted to establish an army that really belonged to him, and the generals of this army were likely to be Qin Zhan.
Seeing that both of them were silent, Li Hong opened his mouth and said, "When you can send another black-clothed assassin out and kill them, it will be the time for us to enter the temple." ”
"No!" Chen Gong and Wei Chi hurriedly returned to their senses and received their orders.
