Hearing Hou Dayong's promise, Trist was overjoyed and said:

"Hou Junhou, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"My lord is leaving this time, please take Hou's family to the prince's side, if there is a subordinate with three long and two short, please also ask Mr. Cui to read my loyalty and take me to take care of my family."

Trist said with a smile:

"Hou Junhou is too worried, I have naturally arranged your retreat, okay, since you said it, this time I will bring your wife and children to the prince's side, you can rest assured, the prince will never treat them badly."

"Then I will thank Mr. Cui and Lord Wang!"

Hou Dayong stood up, and the matter had come to this point, so he could only run to the prince after the lock.

Three days later, in Zou Hong's daily handling of official business, the three giants stationed in Taidang County gathered again, their faces were quite ugly, three days, two more grain transport teams were intercepted in Tianqi Pass, has been connected for three consecutive days, Taidang County has no grain into the stock, which makes Zou Hong feel quite pressure, the daily transport team to Tiandu Grad can not be delayed, he can only stubbornly mobilize grain from the four warehouses.

Merlot County has activated an emergency plan, but it is difficult to raise so much food in a short period of time, and if the food purchased from outside is bypassed to Merlot County, it will take too long, and the water will not be able to save the fire.

"Yesterday, the secret service of the Scarlet Enchantress found Trist at Tianqi Pass."

Chu Xuan's face was quite ugly, and the initial hesitation finally left a huge aftermath.

"Su Xing?"

Zou Hong and Yan Qinghua were both shocked."

"Hou Dayong turned out to be Su Xing's person?"

Everyone was amazed.

"My men found Trist leaving at Tianqi Pass, and there were more than a dozen carriages with him, and after a day of tracking, it was finally confirmed that the carriages were Hou Dayong's wife and one of his sons and daughters, and their target was Su Xing's territory."

This is undoubted, if Hou Dayong is really Su Xing's person, then how early Su Xing's layout is and how far-reaching the plan is, the three of them all feel a little shuddered.

"Is it possible that Su Xingxu bought Hou Dayong with heavy profits?"

Zou Hong asked tentatively.

Chu Xuan shook his head, "After many investigations by the Scarlet Demon Queen, Hou Dayong himself is a southerner, although he has not yet found out his specific resume, but judging from his series of performances, there is no doubt that he is the nail planted by Su Xing in his early years, this person can climb to this position step by step, maybe even Su Xing himself did not expect it." ”

"But no matter what, Hou Dayong has now become a sharp blade hanging over our heads!"

"It's hateful to be in the hands of others!"

Yan Qinghua slammed the table.

"Since Hou Dayong is Su Xing's person, if we immediately inform Pu Zhihuai now, and use him to remove Hou Dayong, so as to open up this lifeline, do you think this operation is possible?"

Zou Hong said unwillingly.

"Pu Zhihuai has already been ordered to go to the imperial city, at least a month before he can return, a month later, the dust has fallen, the daylilies are cold, even if you take Hou Dayong away, what's the use?"

Chu Xuan said with a frown.

Zou Hong was really anxious this time, like an ant on a hot pot, turning around in the wing, "What else can I do, what should I do?" In three days, we have been intercepted in Tianqi Pass with as much as 100,000 catties of grain, and if the time drags on, the granaries of our two counties will be stretched. ”

After speaking, Zou Hong looked up at Chu Xuan and Yan Qinghua, and said anxiously:

"What to do? What can you come up with? ”

Yan Qinghua's face was calm, her eyes flickered, and after Chu Xuan's face changed a few times, she finally seemed to have made up her mind, Huo Di stood up, and said in a crisp voice:

"Master Yan, how about we take the Tianqi Pass and bring this dangerous pass into the palm of our hands?"

Before Yan Qinghua could answer, Zou Hong had already jumped up and said:

"Chu Xuan, what nonsense are you talking about? But not to say that Taihe County is not hostile to us, although Pu Zhihuai is friendly with the Kang family, but we have never been embarrassed. ”

Chu Xuan sneered:

"How can you see that Taidang County will be in dire straits?"

"Isn't that still unclear?"

Zou Hong said loudly, "Hou Yetong is still in the north with the army, we are fighting with Taihe County, what should we do if the army of Taihe County is attacking?" What do we resist, and how do we resist? ”

Chu Xuan smiled and said:

"I'm afraid that Pu Zhihuai won't dare to fight us."

Yan Qinghua stood up, paced around the room for a few circles, and suddenly stood still:

"The Red Demon is right, let's take the Tianqi Pass."

Looking at Yan Qinghua, who actually agreed with Chu Xuan's unbelievable attention, Zou Hong opened his mouth and said in disbelief:

"Are you all crazy?"

Yan Qinghua said: "Zou Hong, have you thought about it, when Hou Ye led the army back to Taidang County, we want to point the sword at the Central Plains, Tianqi Pass will become a huge stumbling block on our way forward, now Pu Zhihuai has not realized this, Tianqi Pass only has five thousand defenders, this is a rare opportunity Not to mention this time, but they started the dispute first, our division is famous, I estimate that Pu Zhihuai was taken to the imperial city by the Kang family this time, and he was discussing this matter." ”

"Pu Zhihuai has no ill will towards us."

Zou Hong struggled.

"There is no malice now, it does not mean that there will be no in the future, but when Kang Yangyun gave him enough benefits, malice came, when he had malice, when we wanted to make a move, it would be too late, not to mention anything else, if Tianqiguan was prepared, as long as there were 30,000 soldiers stationed, and the equipment to defend the city was sufficient, we would dispatch 100,000 troops, and it would be difficult to defeat them in a hurry, and now they were defenseless, it was a godsend. If you don't take it, you will be damned! ”

Chu Xuan said in a deep voice.

"Yes, if this time in the imperial city, Pu Zhihuai gets enough benefits from Kang Yangyun, and after he comes back, he will reorganize his troops and expand the army in Tianqi Pass, it will be difficult for us in the future."

Yan Qinghua followed closely and said:

"Take advantage of this opportunity, take Tianqi Pass in our hands, we can attack, retreat can defend, the initiative will be in my hands, and it is Pu Zhihuai's turn to sleep with Kang Yangyun, at that time, hehe, even if Su Xing wants to make trouble, Kang Yangyun will inevitably appease us, Su Xing will also have to win us over, we can ask for prices on both sides, left and right, and seek the greatest benefits from it."

Yan Qinghua's eyes flashed with a sly light, for the first time, she and Chu Xuan reached the same meaning, and the two women looked at each other and smiled, with a hint of mutual appreciation in their smiles.

"Even if you are right, this idea is good, but what about the soldiers, where do the soldiers come from, we don't have many people in the entire Taidang County now, only 10,000 people in the slave army, and they are also stationed in various places, how can such a large-scale transfer of troops not attract attention!"
