Xiao Lian returned to Stone City, and Uncle Zhou Feng and Concubine Fan were all in the hall of the Taishou Mansion. As soon as Xiao Lian walked into the hall, he saw the ghost-faced Langjun standing in the hall. Ghost-faced Langjun is wearing armor, and the ghost-faced Langjun without a mask is less mysterious and mysterious, and a long scar on his face looks a little terrifying, but his eyes are clearer than before.

Seeing Xiao Lian coming, the ghost-faced Langjun clenched his fists and said, "General Xiao." ”

Uncle Zhou Feng said to Xiao Lian: "General Xiao, General Xiao Yuanda has put the northern front line in order. ”

Xiao Lian bowed his head and said: "General Xiao Yuanda has always governed the army strictly. ”

The ghost-faced Langjun looked at Xiao Lian and said, "General Xiao Yuanda asked me to greet General Xiao on my behalf." ”

Xiao Lian nodded, thanking him.

Originally, it was a happy thing to be able to see friends again in the troubled times, but now Xiao Lian really has no mood to reminisce. Xiao Lian took out the military information from his arms: "The emperor is here." We need to storm the city in advance. ”

Xiao Zhaowen is more auspicious in the capital, and everyone knows it. Hearing the news of his death, he was silent for a moment, and quickly focused his attention on the military situation.

Ghost-faced Langjun and Uncle Zhou Feng took a look at the military situation, and they were all mixed blessings. The good thing is that most of the Anxi army in the past has been under the command of Zhou Fengshu, and the worry is that Xiao Huatuo is scheming and ruthless, and if he attacks the city this time, he will need a move to defeat the enemy. At that time, the casualties in the city were almost immeasurable, and if the Northern Wei Dynasty took the opportunity to send troops at this time, the northern front line would be vulnerable.

Uncle Zhou Feng frowned and looked at the ghost-faced Langjun and asked, "Young Master Xiao, how is the situation on General Xiao Yuanda's side?" If the Wei army attacked the city with heavy troops, how long could it resist? ”

Ghost-faced Langjun shook his head and said helplessly: "The disparity in strength is too great, and five days is already the limit." ”

Uncle Zhou Feng's heart was cold. Even if he can capture the capital quickly on the fifth day, he will not be able to return to the reinforcements, and even if he captures the capital by then, the Wei army will already go to the city. Do you want to fight to break the net?

How should the rivers and mountains of Daqi be saved?

Xiao Lian said flatly: "Give me ten days, and I may be able to let Tuoba retreat." ”

"What's your plan?"

Xiao Lian smiled helplessly: "There's no strategy, it's just what I've done before, just do it again." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun immediately understood what Xiao Lian was referring to: "You want to assassinate Tuoba Hong?" ”

Uncle Zhou Feng frowned and said, "Nonsense! ”

Xiao Lian looked at the military report and said calmly: "Is there a better way?" ”

Uncle Zhou Feng said angrily: "Do you think the Northern Wei Dynasty is Tuguhun? ”

"At the beginning, I was able to cross the snow-capped mountains and enter Tuyuhun, and this time I can also enter the Northern Wei Dynasty."

"You're sending you to death!"

Xiao Lian said coldly: "Is there any other way for General Zhou?!" ”

Uncle Zhou Feng was stunned for a moment. What else could he do? But directly breaking into the palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty to assassinate Tuoba Hong is simply a fantasy. Xiao Lian is a fierce general, and Uncle Zhou Feng doesn't want to see him folded in the Northern Wei Dynasty in vain.

"I won't go alone."

Uncle Zhou Feng said helplessly: "It's not enough for you to bring as many people." ”

"General Zhou still remembers that on the day Xiao Huatuo led his troops into the city, it was the imperial city where the four princes of the Northern Wei Dynasty sent troops to attack first?"

Uncle Zhou Feng didn't screw it tightly: "You want to cooperate with Tuoba Yu?" ”

Xiao Lian nodded, the only way now is to cooperate with Gongziyu, and kill Tuoba Hong, and then Tuoba Hong will inevitably withdraw his troops back to the Northern Wei Dynasty. Xiao Huatuo is no longer a threat.

Uncle Zhou Feng frowned and said, "Let's not say anything else, what if Tuoba Yu doesn't cooperate with you?" ”

Xiao Lian tilted the corner of his mouth: "He didn't have a choice." Tuoba Yu has always been placed in Southern Qi by the Northern Wei Dynasty as a secret agent, and his mission is to transmit back information and disturb Southern Qi. He obviously has the power to siege the city, but he didn't do it when Xiao Luan was plotting rebellion, do you know why? ”

Uncle Zhou Feng was silent and said: "Xiao Luan's strength at that time and Nanqi's strength at that time were not what they are now. Is he worried that Xiao Luan will lead his troops to fight back? ”

Xiao Lian shook his head: "I don't think so. I was at the border when Xiao Luan was plotting rebellion, and at that time Daqi had gradually reversed the defeat. Xiao Luan was afraid that it would be more difficult for the army to return to the court, so he suddenly raised troops and occupied the palace. After all, Xiao Luan is a rebel, even if he conspires with Tuoba Yu, he must not give up the rebellion. Otherwise, even if he drove away Tuoba Yu, he would not be able to clear the fact that he was guilty, and he would die. So at that time, if Tuoba Yu also came out to make trouble, the forces besieging the city would be the same as the day of Xiao Huatuo's mutiny, and they would be three balanced forces. ”

"As long as Tuoba Yu also attacked the city at that time, Xiao Luan would not be able to take the palace overnight. At that time, the border will inevitably be in chaos, and Xiao Yuanda will definitely find a way to return to King Qin. Even if Xiao Yuanda only withdrew a part of his troops, Tuoba Xian would be able to take several cities on the border. ”

Uncle Zhou Feng has fought all his life and knows that Xiao Lian's judgment is completely correct. Uncle Zhou Feng frowned and said, "So the reason why Tuoba Yu didn't do it at that time was because he didn't want Tuoba Yu to win the battle?" ”

Xiao Lian nodded: "Tuoba Yu has worked hard in Daqi for so long, but the credit is all on Tuoba Yu's head, of course he refuses." What's more, the struggle between the henchmen of the Northern Wei Dynasty is not necessarily weaker than that of the Great Qi, how could Tuoba Yu watch Tuoba Yu's power grow again and again? What's more, on the day of Xiao Huatuo's mutiny, Tuoba Yu killed the soldiers who were preparing to attack the city, and the two of them had already torn their faces. If Tuoba Yu hadn't conspired with me, he wouldn't have survived on his own. ”

Uncle Zhou Feng muttered: "Although your inference is very reasonable, but Tuoba Yu's troops have suffered serious losses, since Tuoba Yu dares to tear his face in Southern Qi, he will inevitably cut Tuoba Yu's power in Northern Wei a lot, in case it ......"

"I think it's feasible." It was Fan Guifei who spoke. "Looking ahead and looking backward can only delay the opportunity, not to mention that this palace believes that General Xiao can return triumphantly."

Fan Guifei looked at the military information on the table and asked Xiao Lian, "A-Ying is still alive, isn't it?" ”

A ripple appeared in Xiao Lian's cold eyes: "It should be." ”

Fan Guifei looked at Uncle Zhou Feng and said, "General Zhou, let General Xiao try." The Anxi Army is the best army in my Great Qi. Regardless of whether General Xiao succeeds or not, we can also take the capital. However, if General Xiao can succeed this time, he can ensure the stability of the border for at least five years. Now that I have suffered a great loss of vitality, if there is stability for five years, I can regain the prestige of the country. ”

Uncle Zhou Feng originally thought that Xiao Lian would go to the Northern Wei Dynasty to be more auspicious, and it was also with a heart of pity to stop Xiao Lian. But Fan Guifei opened her mouth, and he had no reason to stop it.

Uncle Zhou Feng asked, "How many people does General Xiao need to go to the Northern Wei Dynasty?" ”

Xiao Lian said coldly: "One person." ”

Uncle Zhou Feng exclaimed: "One person? Do you want one to go? How is this possible! ”

"General Zhou, don't worry, I'm not going to declare war on the Northern Wei Dynasty, I'm going in to assassinate me, as long as Tuoba Yu can take me into Beijing, I'll be alone."

Uncle Zhou Feng frowned and said, "No! You're so adventurous! ”

"General Zhou!" Xiao Lian interrupted Uncle Zhou Feng and said, "If this matter can be done, I can do it alone, if it can't be done, no matter how many people will be killed." ”

Uncle Zhou Feng was upset in his heart, but Xiao Lian was resolute, and he had no reason to refute.

Ghost-faced Langjun raised his head and said, "I'll go with you." ”

Xiao Lian frowned and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I can't do anything here."

Xiao Lian looked at Ghost-faced Langjun, although he had grown a lot with Xiao Yuanda during this time, he still looked weak and weak: "I'm going to be an assassin, you go over the wall first, I'll take a look." ”

The corner of Ghost-faced Langjun's mouth twitched: "How can you not go over the wall?" You have to use a knife to assassinate, don't you? I'll use medicine, you can use one to try. ”

Xiao Lian: "......"

Ghost-faced Langjun looked at Xiao Lian and sighed: "I want to live a good life, let me go with you." ”

Xiao Lian was stunned for a moment, looked at the appearance of the ghost-faced Langjun wearing silver armor, and smiled slightly: "Okay." ”

Xiao Lian instructed Uncle Zhou Feng again: "General Zhou, you can send people to guard around the capital in the next few days and shoot down all the pigeons in the sky." As long as Tuoba could not receive carrier pigeons flying from the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty would not know the situation of Jiankang and would not dare to act rashly. ”

"Good!" Uncle Zhou Feng immediately ordered ten guards to guard under the city wall.

Xiao Lian hugged his fists at Uncle Zhou Feng and said: "General Zhou, without further ado, Xiao Gongzi and I will set off, if it goes well, there will be results within ten days." ”

Uncle Zhou Feng hugged his fists and said: "General Xiao, Xiao Gongzi, take care!" ”

Xiao Lian suddenly remembered something: "General Zhou, what if...... If I don't make it back. If you can still see the princess, can you tell her that I thought she was dead on the day she entered Beijing and had already left? ”

Uncle Zhou Feng was stunned, although he didn't understand why Xiao Lian said this, but he still responded.

Xiao Lian thanked Uncle Zhou Feng, and did not delay with the ghost-faced Langjun, and walked towards the outside of Stone City after saying goodbye to everyone.

Walking out of Stone City, the ghost-faced Langjun said: "I rushed over when I received the news in Southern Qinzhou, I was wondering if you would go back." ”

Xiao Lian didn't react for a while, and looked at the ghost-faced Langjun inexplicably: "Where are you going?" ”

"Where did you come from, where did you go back?"

Xiao Lian came back to his senses and smiled: "She's here, I'm not going back." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun sneered, "You're really a tendon. On the way here, I heard about the princess. Why did Xiao Huatuo want her? “

Xiao Lian said gloomily: "I don't know, but I will make him pay." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun looked at Xiao Lian with some doubts: "Can you actually endure not to go directly into the city?" ”

Xiao Lian was a little sad, he also wanted to kill it directly, kill Xiao Huatuo, and save He Jingying. Even if you can't kill Xiao Huatuo, as long as you can see He Jingying standing in front of you alive, it's fine.

But he couldn't. Xiao Lian smiled lonely: "She has her plan, and if I kill her now, not only will I not be able to help her, but it will only make her sad." ”

She has her plan, but Xiao Lian is not in her plan. Xiao Lian didn't know how long it would take before he could really enter her heart.

The ghost-faced Langjun couldn't help but feel a little more sympathetic when he looked at Xiao Lian, but he was also a little envious. Because Xiao Lian's connection with this world is feelings. And his connection to the world is mostly just helplessness.

"Say something else, do you know where Tuoba Yu is?"

"I don't know."

Ghost-faced Langjun raised his head in some shock: "Then where are we going?" ”

Xiao Lian said lazily: "Find a place to wait for him." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun suddenly felt like he had been cheated: "Big brother, why are you going to wait?" Agreed? Or do you have a heart? ”

Xiao Lian's eyelids jumped: "Have a heart? Heh, with that shemale? ”

Ghost-faced Langjun frowned and said, "Otherwise, how are you going to wait for that Gongzi Yu?" What if he doesn't come for days? Are you willing to let the princess wait in the capital with uncertainty about life and death? ”

Xiao Lian's eyes sank: "I will definitely be able to save her." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun pondered for a moment and asked, "Let me ask you, if she is really dead, won't you go back?" ”

Xiao Lian heard the ghost-faced Langjun's question, and the hand holding the reins of the horse involuntarily clenched a little tighter. Even just hearing such an assumption still made his heart ache.

Xiao Lian said in a deep voice: "I don't know. But as long as she's in one day, I won't go back for a day. ”

Xiao Lian said to find a place to wait for Gongziyu, so he really found a place to sit down. Xiao Lian found a forest against the river, which was very cool. He walked around, fell in love with a lush tree, and jumped up with a light figure.

Ghost-faced Langjun looked at Xiao Lian dumbfounded, and muttered, "You belong to a monkey, aren't you?" ”

Ghost-faced Langjun looked up at the tree, which was the thickness of three people hugging each other, and the closest branch to the ground was more than five meters high. And Xiao Lian on the tree didn't care about him at all, standing on the tree and looking around.

The ghost-faced Langjun mocked: "Sure enough, it belongs to the monkey." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun took a few steps back, sprinted and jumped with all his strength, stretched out his arm and grabbed at the branch, but it was not enough.

Ghost-faced Langjun: "......"

Ghost-faced Langjun coughed, but Xiao Lian didn't see the embarrassing scene of Ghost-faced Langjun at all.

Ghost-faced Langjun honestly walked under the tree, hugged the tree with both hands and legs and began to rub the net. I only climbed two meters, and I was already sweating profusely.

At this time, Xiao Lian finally glanced back: "Don't come up yet." There seems to be something over there, you go over there and take a look. ”

Ghost-faced Langjun: "......"

Ghost-faced Langjun didn't dare to scold while holding that tree, if he opened his mouth and was deflated, I was afraid that he would fall down even more embarrassed. There was no way, and the ghost-faced Langjun had to climb down from the tree little by little.

Xiao Lian saw that Langjun left the ground, and pointed to the southeast under the tree near the lake: "Just over there, you go over and take a look." ”

Ghost-faced Langjun straightened out his robe, if it weren't for the armor on his body that added a little manliness, the current Ghost-faced Langjun looked like an angry child.

Ghost Face Lang took two steps to the place Xiao Lian pointed to, the ground was relatively flat, but there was nothing: "Nothing?" ”

"You go one step further."

Ghost-faced Langjun took another step: "You're kidding me, aren't you?" ”

"You take another step to the left."

The ghost-faced Langjun took another step to the left according to his words, and was about to say that Xiao Lian was looking for trouble, but before the words could be spoken, his feet suddenly lightened, and the whole person was hung upside down.

"Ahh Ahh ”

Ghost-faced Langjun was hung upside down from a tree, dangling left and swinging again. Maybe it was hanging upside down and rushing some blood into his brain, but the ghost-faced Langjun suddenly figured out that Xiao Lian was using him as bait.

The ghost face scolded from the bottom of his heart: "Xiao Lian! I'm Nyima!"

Xiao Lian sat on the tree, swaying his feet and looking at the ghost-faced Langjun with a grin.

National scolding, how kind. I haven't heard of it in a long time.
