Hua An and Han Qian both heard it, this was the voice of Yu Liang, the uncle of the current dynasty.

Why did he come, just when Hua An was wondering, the jailer had already opened the cell door, and Yu Liang and Yin Hao walked in with smiles.

"The last general, Han Qian, see Lord Yu." Han Qian bent down and clenched his fists, still not forgetting to salute, and the iron chains on his shackles made a crisp sound because of the friction.

Yu Liang hurriedly helped Han Qian up and said: "General Han doesn't have to be polite, please hurry up, come on!" Remove the shackles for General Han. ”

The jailer on the side hurriedly trotted over to remove the shackles from Han Qian.

"My lord, this is ......" Han Qian was still a little surprised.

Before Yu Liang could answer, Hua An interjected first: "Master, it must be Master Yu who knows that the master is wronged and specially came to pick us up, right?" Lord Yu. ”

Hua An looked at Yu Liang expectantly after speaking, he was almost sure that he had won the bet, and it could be seen from Yu Liang's attitude towards Han Qian that he was friendly.

"That's natural, this official has never doubted General Han's loyalty to the imperial court, it's just that some unreasonable ministers have misled the emperor, and this official absolutely believes in General Han." Yu Liang said duplicitously.

"Oh! We can go out! Huaan rolled on the ground excitedly.

It turned out that he won the gamble completely, and this adventure into the prison not only enhanced the relationship with the master, but also left a good impression on the uncle of the dynasty, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

By the way, I also visited the prison, although there is nothing to see in this prison except for the cold black room and iron fence, but it is also a long experience, in short, it is worth the trip.

Yu Liang looked at Hua An who was rolling on the ground and nodded, his eyes were full of appreciation, because he was happy that rolling on the ground was originally a child's nature, which showed that Hua An's childlike innocence was still there, he was a normal child, but he had more persistence and backbone than other children of the same age.

Although Yu Liang looked very happy as soon as he entered the cell, Han Qian could see the hidden worry in his heart from his slightly frowning brow.

"My lord, how is the battle ahead?" Han Qian asked softly.

Yu Liang frowned and shook his head repeatedly, and said: "The rebels have been driving straight in, the capital has been besieged for many days, and the city is only broken overnight. ”

Han Qian was shocked, and he didn't know what to say for a while, even Hua An, who was lying on the ground, was taken aback, and hurriedly got up from the ground.

Yin Hao on the side said sourly: "Among the 8,000 rebels attacking the capital now, General Han's subordinate Chen Xiong is the most courageous, and this is General Han's good training!" ”

Yu Liang coughed dryly, glanced at Yin Hao, looked at Han Qian and regretted: "This is all to blame for the official's carelessness, he looked down on the rebels and did not make full preparations, but things are already like this, and now is not the time to be held responsible. ”

After Yu Liang finished speaking, he looked at Han Qian with an embarrassed face, if he had listened to Han Qian's strategy, Su Jun would have become a prisoner now, but now that the rebels are besieging the city on all sides, he has no choice but to be cheeky to ask Han Qian, after all, Han Qian was the number one fierce general under Zu Di back then, and he may be able to solve the current dilemma.

"Dare to ask your lordship, what is the current situation of the rebel siege, and where are the reinforcements of our army now." Han Qian asked calmly.

Yu Liang looked at Yin Hao slightly sideways, Yin Hao understood, took out the topographic map of the suburbs of Beijing that he carried at any time, put it in front of Han Qian, and said softly: "There are only eight thousand defenders in the capital, and now the four gates are besieged by the rebels, Kuang Xiao, the rebel general of the East Gate, the rebel general Zu Jian of the South Gate, Chen Xiong, the rebel general of the West Gate, and Su Jun, the leader of the traitors at the North Gate, each of which has two thousand troops.

In addition, there are also 2,000 rebels in Stone Town not far away, and the main force of the rebels will arrive in the capital in two days. The nearest reinforcement of our army is General Zhao Yin's 8,000 soldiers and horses, which are now stationed thirty miles north of Stone City, and the other reinforcements are too far away from the capital, but I am afraid that the distant water will not quench the thirst of the near. ”

After listening to this, Han Qian carefully looked at the topographic map of the suburbs of Beijing in front of him, thought for a long time, and couldn't help frowning and shaking his head.

"Why, General Han can't find a strategy to break the enemy." Yu Liang frowned and shook his head when he saw Han Qian, and asked worriedly.

Yin Hao sneered: "Didn't General Han Qian say a few days ago that he could persuade Chen Xiong to defect to help Wang Shi? Why don't you write a letter now and send someone to General Chen Xiong to fight back? ”

"Yes! General Han, Chen Xiong is a fierce general, as long as he is willing to submit to the imperial court, this official will definitely speak a lot of good words in front of the emperor and will never treat him badly. Yu Liang assured.

Seeing that Yin Hao seemed to doubt himself, Han Qian couldn't help but argue: "Lord Yin, the so-called time and time, the situation is very different from a few days ago, now that the capital is surrounded by rebels like an iron bucket, how can the letter be safely delivered to Chen Xiong's hands."

Since the general knew that Chen Xiong was my general, didn't Su Jun know? If as expected, Su Jun's eyes are already all over Chen Xiong's army, as long as the city sends people to Chen Xiong's army, Su Jun will definitely know that if this matter is a little careless, Chen Xiong will be in a different place. ”

"Isn't there a better way?" Yu Liang looked a little anxious.

Han Qian's brows tightened and he shook his head.

At this time, Hua An, who had been silent on the sidelines, suddenly spoke: "Master, if the person who delivered the letter appeared from behind Chen Xiongjun, would Su Jun still be suspicious?" ”

"Probably not, but the capital has been besieged by rebel regiments, as long as someone in the city goes out of the city, it will definitely be discovered immediately, how can you quietly detour back to the rear of Chen Xiong's army?" Han Qian looked at Hua An and wondered.

Yin Hao also quipped on the side: "General Han's beloved apprentice is not an ordinary person, he is afraid that he will fly over with a kick on his legs." ”

When Hua An heard this, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said indifferently: "It's still this adult who has insight, but Hua An is just so capable, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning." ”

After Hua An finished speaking, he looked at Yin Hao, only to see Yin Hao's mouth open, and his jaw seemed to fall off in shock.

In fact, Hua'an is just an ordinary person, how can he fly to the rear of Chen Xiongjun, but he knows that with such a large city as the capital, in order to discharge all kinds of sewage in life, there must be many culverts leading to the river outside the city, and the so-called culvert is just digging a gully in the ground, and then laying wooden or stone slabs on it to block the odor emitted by the canal.

And Hua An's idea was to sneak out of the city through the culvert, and then quietly detour back to the rear of Chen Xiongjun, so that the rebels outside the city would definitely not be discovered.

"Hua'an, don't be presumptuous in front of the two adults." Han Qian saw that Hua An said such an inconsequential thing, and opened his mouth to teach a lesson.

"Master, I can really fly to the rear of Chen Xiongjun." Hua An opened his mouth to argue.

"You ......"

Han Qian pointed at Hua An and was about to teach a lesson, Yu Liang pressed down Han Qian's arm and persuaded: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, the general does not need to be angry, and listen to what the disciples say." ”

"Master, I'm not talking about flying from the sky, but from the ground."

"What do you mean......" Han Qian seemed to think of something.

"Culvert." After Hua An finished speaking, the corner of his mouth smiled slightly.

"What a plan! Why didn't I think of it? Han Qian slapped his thigh excitedly.

Yin Hao nodded again and again when he heard this, but then said worriedly: "The smell in the culvert is very big, there are often rats and snakes, and there are two layers of iron fences passing through the city wall, which is difficult for ordinary people to get through. ”

When Hua An heard this, he said disapprovingly: "The smell can be covered with a damp cloth on the mouth and nose, so that you can't smell much odor, as for the rats and snakes, Hua An is not afraid of death, is he afraid of them, and the iron fence is better." Hua An is only six years old, and he is not an ordinary person in the mouth of adults. ”

Hua An said as he drilled back and forth from the iron bars of the cell door.

"Hahaha, it seems that the errand to deliver the letter is none other than the Lingtu!" Yu Liang raised his eyebrows, touched Hua An's head and said to Han Qian.

"Yes, my lord, as long as Chen Xiong strikes a blow, our army may be able to save the defeat, and now success or failure is in one fell swoop." Han Qian looked at the topographic map of the suburbs of Beijing and said softly.

"I would like to hear about it,"

"My lord, please see, our army in the capital has 8,000 people, if you add Chen Xiong's 2,000 soldiers and horses, our army's strength will reach 10,000, and the rebels besieging the city will only have 6,000 left, so our army has a lot of advantages.

If things go well, the general can go to Chen Xiong's army at the end of tonight and lead 2,000 men and horses to attack the Su Jun rebels at the north gate from the direction of the west gate, and the adults can order a general to lead 2,000 soldiers and horses out of the north gate to flank the rebels with the last general, and he will be able to defeat Su Jun's rebels in one fell swoop.

In addition, the adults can deploy the remaining 6,000 soldiers and horses at the east gate and the south gate, as long as the rebels on these two roads send troops to rescue the north gate, the adults can order the army to go out of the city to attack it, if the progress is smooth, the rebels can be broken before tonight, and Su Jun can be captured. Han Qian pointed to the topographic map of the suburbs of Beijing in front of him and analyzed.

"General Han's plan is very clever, very wonderful." Yu Liang praised it after hearing it, and the trace of worry that was suppressed in his heart suddenly completely dissipated. He paused and said, "General Han, when we get to the official mansion, let's study the specific action plan, and let's leave here first." ”

"Yes, please first." Han Qian stretched out his right hand and said politely.

"General, please."

The two of them gave in and left the prison together and came to Yu Liang's mansion.

######

Han Qian handed the written letter to Hua An and advised: "You must be careful on the road, act on the right time, if Chen Xiong doesn't believe you, you will do what I taught you, understand?" ”

"Master, don't worry! Huaan promised to complete the task. Hua'an replied easily.

Although he vaguely remembered that Su Jun finally broke through the capital during this period of history, the master was so thoughtful that he should be able to defeat Su Jun's rebels!

Obviously, Hua An is full of confidence in his master, and as long as the counterinsurgency is successful, he is also a meritorious person today, and the court will reward him with something! Hua An thought happily in his heart.

He came to the mouth of a major culvert near the West Gate, wrapped the letter given to him by Han Qian in an oilcloth and stuffed it in his arms, and then wrapped the prepared water-soaked cotton cloth around his mouth and nose.
