Chapter 585: Conspiracy in the Dark
"What are you going to do?" Li Ren'an looked at Dou Hongxian and said, this middle-aged man with an extremely ordinary appearance looked at Dou Hongxian, his eyes were full of ruthlessness, he had already made a decision, since he was going to leave Li Zhao, he would make a more accurate decision, teach Li Zhao a hard lesson, let Li Zhao see that the Kanto family is not so easy to mess with.
"Naturally, it is the five thousand elites who have eliminated Xu Shiji." Dou Hongxian said without thinking: "I believe that the 10,000 troops of my Red Turban Army have entered Pingjiao, and if you think about it, the Li family of Zhao County can still do it easily." ”
"Yes." Li Ren'an nodded, but there was a storm in his heart, he didn't expect this woman who had lost her home to be so vicious, and she didn't hesitate to destroy Xu Shiji, five thousand elites plus a general like Xu Shiji, once something happened, Li Zhao would definitely pursue Pingjiao, and the only choice for the Li family in Zhao County could only be Li Xin.
Li Ren'an made a decision at this moment, since he decided to join Li Xin's camp, he had to let him see the sincerity of the Li family in Zhao County. What's more, since Dou Hongxian has made a move against Li Zhao, he can only embark on the road of uniting with Li Xin in the future, and even the Li family of Zhao County can rely on persuading Dou Hongxian to let Li Xin get an important force. It's also a credit.
"Well, in that case, it has been decided, and my soldiers and horses will enter the flat thorn to-morrow night. You'd better be faster. Dou Hongxian glanced at Li Ren'an very seriously, but he didn't expect the other party to be so decisive, and reminded at the moment: "If we can't enter Pingthorn City in time, no one knows when Xu Shiji will enter the camp of the Turks and when he will enter Pingthorn City." ”
"I don't think the other party will enter Pingthorn City." Li Shousu said in a low voice: "If I were Xu Shiji, I would have entered the camp of the Turks at this time, and after seizing the money, I would retract it, so that only the Turks would want to slaughter the city." All the blame will fall only on the Turks. ”
"You're saying he's going for the riches of the Turks?" Dou Hongxian thought for a while and asked.
"It has to be." Li Shousu nodded and said: "It is almost impossible to kill a person in a city, once the news leaks out, whether it is Xu Shiji or Li Shimin, they can't bear the price." So it can only be the Turks who make a move, and the Turks have two benefits. First, the charge of slaughtering the city can be placed on the Turks, which will not have any impact on Li Zhao, and even take the opportunity to drive the Turks out, after all, Li Zhao no longer needs the Turks; The second is to deal with us in order to take revenge on the prime minister. ”
"Not bad." Dou Hongxian nodded.
"Then let's take a look now and see where Xu Shiji will go after killing the Turks?" Li Shousu said proudly: "Since they killed the Turks, they must leave, and in order to conceal them, only soldiers can carry those gold and silver treasures, this is our opportunity." As long as we find the other party's marching route, we can easily destroy these people and seize this share of the money. ”
"After destroying them, we will use Pingjiao's people to leave Pingjiao, temporarily hide in the Taihang Mountains, and wait for the prime minister to calm Hebei before coming out, at most it will be a few years." Li Ren'an quickly made a decision, and the Li family in Zhao County was still very prestigious in Zhao County. The entire Pingjian City can't be said to be all, but most of it is the Li family's property. If the Li family wants to move to Taihang Mountain, these people will definitely follow, and if they don't agree, they deserve to die under the command of the Turks.
"In that case, then I'm relieved." Dou Hongxian nodded and said, "He's going to Bingzhou." We will definitely pass through the Mangrove Valley in the west of the city, where we will ambush each other, and no matter how strong Xu Shiji is, he will not be able to escape the siege of my tens of thousands of troops. ”
"Well, my Li family also has hundreds of private soldiers. Li Hao, you lead them to follow General Dou's side. Li Ren'an said loudly. The gloom on his face couldn't be hidden, no one knew what Xu Shiji would do, in case Xu Shiji wanted to attack Pingjiao, at least the Li family could leave their blood.
"Li Gongzi, then let me go!" Dou Hongxian didn't look at everyone, she turned around and left, she was excited in her heart, she was finally going to do something to Li Shimin, Xu Shiji was an important general under Li Shimin, if she could kill this person, Li Shimin would probably feel heartache!
In the dark night, Xu Shiji was looking at Pingjian City in the distance, his soldiers and horses had been coming to Pingjian for a day, the army was hiding in the nearby mountains, the five thousand army had been arranged, and his spies had entered the city, not only to check the layout of the Turks, but also to see the situation in Pingjian City, the task assigned by Li Yuan and Li Shimin must be completed.
"General, you're ready." Accompanying Xu Shiji were Xie Yingdeng and Yin Kaishan, Xie Yingdeng looked a little excited, he didn't know Li Yuan's strategy, he just thought that Li Yuan was ready to make a move against the Turks, so he took the initiative to investigate the movements of the Turks.
"General Xu, after the battle tonight, you will definitely become the hero of my Great Zhao." Yin Kaishan showed a reserved smile on his face, the attack of the army will definitely destroy the Turks, but unfortunately, the main general who led the army to attack the Turks this time was not himself.
"Then wait for the soldiers to prepare! When they fell asleep, they prepared to attack the Turks. Xu Shiji's heart is extremely heavy, he is still a person with a little conscience, knowing that after this battle, Li Zhao's financial problems will definitely be solved, but the people of Pingjian City will face the anger of the Turks, and the Li family in Pingjian City will be thrown out by Li Zhao as a substitute for the dead.
"It's a pity, a century-old family, I'm afraid it will disappear into the tide of history." Xu Shiji looked at Ping Thorn, his face was complicated, he turned over his horse, and the five thousand elites behind him went straight to the camp of the Turks.
And at this moment, outside the gate of Pingjian City, Dou Hongxian and Li Hao also led hundreds of people out of the city, in the end, it was the base camp of the Li family, in Pingjian, no one dared to stop Dou Hongxian and Li Hao and others.
"Xu Shiji's army has come over." Dou Hongxian and the others advanced for a few miles, and suddenly listened, looked into the distance and suddenly said very calmly, she had already felt the signs of Xu Shiji's soldiers and horses.
"Is it too late for us to go over and ambush them?" Li Hao asked with some concern.
"It's just in time." Dou Hongxian glanced at Li Hao with disdain, the children of the family are nothing more than that, no wonder they are all surnamed Li, Li Xin, who is not a child of the family, can achieve great things, but the person in front of him can only be an ordinary child of the family.
"Oh." Li Hao's face was hot, as if he saw the ridicule and disdain on Dou Hongxian's face, and he felt a burst of regret in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Who made him not understand this!
"After Xu Shiji's army fought overnight, he was physically and mentally exhausted, but he didn't want to be discovered by others, so he could only withdraw overnight, plus so many gold and silver treasures, it would be even more exhausting, what we need to do is to wait for work, Xu Shiji thinks that there is no army nearby, and he will definitely be careless, this is our opportunity." Dou Hongxian couldn't help but explain.
"I see." After Li Hao listened, it suddenly dawned on him, and when he looked at Dou Hongxian again, he saw that she was dressed in red, leading the way, Li Hao couldn't help but shake his head, and quickly led everyone to follow, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
Outside the Turkic camp, Xu Shiji looked at the camp in the dark, his face was hideous, he waved the sword in his hand, and commanded the army to rush into the camp. At this time, Li Zhao and the Turks were on good terms, and in the territory of Li Zhao, there were still troops who dared to attack the big camp, and they didn't react at all for a while.
Xu Shiji, Xie Yingdeng, Yin Kaishan three people, led the 5,000 army to rush in, killed countless soldiers in a row, the war lasted until the third watch, the Turks were killed cleanly, but it is a pity that the silk in the camp was burned a lot, and most of the captured women were killed in the chaos.
"Quick, clean up the war, we can't let Li Zhao's army know that we are coming." A voice in the darkness was extremely eye-catching, and said loudly: "Let Li Zhao's army and the Turks fight each other." Walk! Everyone followed me Chi Gong back. ”
"Yes." As the general gave the order, the soldiers were full of cheers.
When the fourth watch was known, the army left the camp, and each of these soldiers was filled with a lot of gold and silver treasures, as well as a lot of grain and grass, but behind them, there was a raging fire, which was constantly burning the camp, not only had many goods that could not be taken, but also a lot of grain and grass. It's a pity that these people's fat and people's ointment were all burned clean with Xu Shiji's fire.
"Xu Shiji, this thief is really ruthless." On the city wall, looking at the fire in the military camp in the distance, Li Ren'an knocked on the city wall fiercely, and the faces of other families in Pingjiao City were not good-looking, the grain and grass of the Turks were burned, I believe that the Turks will soon know the news, when the time comes, these Turks will not find trouble with Li Zhao, but will find trouble with the Pingjiao people, nearby, there is no garrison of Li Zhao, the only object that can be suspected is the family of Zhao County, when the time comes, the entire family of Pingjian will be buried for the grain and grass of the Turks.
"Now we have no choice, everyone, we can only lead the Pingthorn people into the Taihang Mountain, otherwise, the anger of the Turks will turn Pingthorn into a ghost." Li Shousu looked around with a gloomy face and said.
"Li Zhao is too hateful, Lord Li, we all listen to you. Leave the flat thorns. The head of a family sighed: "In the end, it was from the Guanzhong family, and he didn't care about our life or death at all." ”
"Yes, let's go to Taihang Mountain to hide first, and when the Tang Wang's army comes, it's not too late for us to come back." Someone else said.
"Go, go. Go with you. "At the head of the city was the great family of the family, and by the time the Turks arrived at Pingthorn ten days later, Pingthorn had become an empty city. (To be continued......)
