At the north gate of Youzhou City, Cao Xiu and his subordinates are working together to encircle and suppress a man.

The man's martial arts are strong, but no one is optimistic that he can get benefits from the soldiers defending the city with one enemy and one hundred.

"Quick, archers ready"

Because a great war broke out at any time, each city gate was equipped with some archers, just to be prepared.

Cao Xiu thought that the other party was already a turtle in the urn, and his heart was full of joy, thinking that he would be able to hug the beauty soon.

But at this moment, the Zhang De brothers and others, who had already entered the city, suddenly turned back and outflanked Cao Xiu's people from the rear.

There were about fifteen people who entered the city, and there was a "knife" outside the city, which struck back and forth, which made Cao Xiu startled.

"Who would dare to do anything to our boss?" Li Wei shouted loudly and came back with his men to support.

Song Yi saw Li Wei and the others come back, and he was sure that men should not be in danger.

When he heard Cao Xiu ask the archers to prepare just now, Song Yi almost blurted out and revealed his identity.

But thinking that this time I came to Youcheng to investigate the fact that the three brothers Zhang De were framed fifteen years ago, I still endured it.

However, now that their people have come back to support, Song Yi's hanging heart relaxed.

"Okay, you really have a problem" As soon as Cao Xiu saw that so many people suddenly appeared to help "Liu Xi", he thought that these people were trying to forcibly break through and had ulterior motives.

"Go back and tell the boss that there are people here. You give me spiritual points, and you will never allow these people to break in" Cao Xiu gave an order, and the generals guarding the city were ready to fight.

Suddenly, so many people who knew martial arts appeared, and the soldiers defending the city also felt that things were not simple.

Even the leader of Qian, who had some complaints about Cao Xiu just now, was surprised, could he have seen it wrong, did this young man really have a problem? If it weren't for Cao Xiu who stopped these people by mistake, if he really put these people into Youzhou City from his own hands, wouldn't he have put in the bad guys?

When Leader Qian thought about it, big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Fortunately, he was stopped, otherwise, he really deserved to die. Chief Qian thought in his heart, looking at Song Yi, there was no softness in front of them.

On the other side, the chamber of the Marshal's Palace.

"Dashuai, a person from the northern grasslands, with wolf ambitions, has always coveted the land of my Qianchao. Last year, we broke through our first blockade and took the border city. The people of the surrounding counties have come to our Youzhou. ”

"Great. In the first few months, because the road was closed by heavy snow in the north, and the Jurchen tribe was dominated by cavalry, they could not continue the march and could only stay in the border city to rest. However, now that it's spring, the weather is getting warmer, the snow and ice have been lifted, and Nuhachi is definitely making a comeback. We have to prepare in advance" Guan Changyun said as he carried out the sand table deduction, his face was not good.

"Who's to say it isn't? Recently, at the city gate of Youzhou, no less than 1,000 people enter the city every day. It is not known whether there are any spies involved in this. But it is not possible to lock the people who have fled the customs outside the city for the sake of spies. It's really not easy to do."

"General Guan, General Hu, what you said is extremely true. The situation is already very dangerous. Ben Shuai has reported the situation in Youzhou City to His Majesty, but His Majesty has not replied, according to Ben Shuai's guess, His Majesty still hopes to stop the fight as soon as possible."

"Dashuai, do you mean that the emperor is still not dead and still wants to make peace with the Jurchens?" Guan Changyun is known as Xiao Zhuge and is good at strategy, and he has always been Gao Jinyun's military advisor, so he can be thorough at all.

"How can it be justified? The frontier soldiers threw their heads and spilled their blood to protect their families and defend the country, but the emperor has always pinned his hopes on peace talks with the Jurchens? Where do you put us people? ”

It was Hu Desheng who spoke, who had followed Gao Jinyun for many years and had always been Gao Jinyun's right-hand man.

"General Hu, don't be impatient! The emperor also hopes that the war will be turned into a jade silk, so that the war can be quelled as soon as possible and the people will be peaceful."

"Dashuai, I heard that last time, Yan Huodu had secretly entered Beijing for peace talks, and finally broke up unhappily. The emperor is still not giving up, does he have other considerations? ”

"Yes. Last time, the Jurchen lion opened his mouth and wanted to gnaw down a large area of land in the north of our Qianchao. The emperor naturally did not agree, so he broke up unhappily. But now the situation in the capital is not peaceful, the prince has become an adult, and the court is also treacherous...... "Gao Jinyun is a member of the Gao family, so he naturally knows what is happening in the capital, as well as the tension between the Gao and Gong families." He didn't say it explicitly, but everyone in the room understood.

The emperor is in decline, the two princes are in high spirits, there are many people in the court who are fighting and the main peace, and the emperor must be afraid that the soldiers will be glued, he will have internal and external troubles, and it will be difficult to sleep and eat. That's why the emperor wants to negotiate peace, right?

Gao Jinyun didn't say what he thought in his heart, but the room was full of his cronies, and he only clicked it a little just now, and he didn't continue.

"Your Majesty is really, last time it was because of a sudden attack with Nuhachi before the heavy snow, we were caught off guard and lost the border city. Now, it has been carefully deployed, and the Jurchens will never be allowed to take advantage of it again. If they dare to attack Youzhou, I, Lao Hu, will definitely go out in person, let them go and have no return, and taste my power."

Hu Desheng's face was angry, and the beard on his face was blown up by the exhaled breath from his nose.

Gao Zixia on the side has been following his father Gao Jinyun, and he has long been accustomed to the arguments between his father and the two generals.

Guan Changyun knew Hu Desheng's temper, and he also knew that Hu Desheng was an open-mouthed person who dared to say anything.

Fortunately, now that they are not in the army, there are only four of them in the room, so they will open one eye and close one eye to let each other vent.

In the final analysis, Guan Changyun was also dissatisfied with the emperor's decision to seek peace and ignore the interests of the Qianchao, so he allowed Gao Desheng to speak.

But no matter how angry Gao Desheng was, the marshal didn't react, just said that the emperor had his own considerations.

At this moment, an anxious voice came from outside.

"Report" a soldier reported in the courtyard.

"Dashuai, the spy has been found at the north gate."

"What? What's going on? Gao Jinyun hurriedly asked the soldier to make it clear.

"Dashuai, there is a group of more than a dozen people at the north gate, and they want to get through the pass, but they were discovered by the garrison and are fighting with our people at the gate of the north city."

"What? Outrageous. It must be the Jurchen people, they have already acted? When Hu Desheng heard this, the hair on his whole body exploded.

"General Hu, don't worry, I'm afraid it's not easy" Guan Changyun was thoughtful, his eyes sharp, "You just said that they want to enter the customs, not get out?" ”

"Yes, General Guan" Xiao Bing didn't know why General Guan asked, but he still answered truthfully.

"Strategist, is there anything wrong?" Gao Jinyun knows Guan Changyun's resourcefulness, and believes that he will not be untargeted, and there must be an inside story when he asks this question.
