Are you all set? Gu Zi'an asked lightly.

"It's all ready, and the pearls, gold, chalcedony, and cloth are also placed in the cracks, and no one will see it." General Gai of Great Xia replied. In the eyes, this is a risky move. Although the number of soldiers and horses in Yangshang City is equal to theirs, the chance of winning a fight can be more than fifty percent.

However, Gu Zi'an looked very determined, and he was not ready to fight hard. Rather, it gave this strategy a very beautiful name: the center flowering.

He hid in a wooden box with two hundred men and saw the opportunity. On the day of the ceremony, the rebels and thieves will be wiped out. And the comfort of the periphery is relieved to be handed over to the county lord of Fenghua and General Wei Yong and General Gai. Gu Zi'an has never doubted the generals under him, even if he has not seen Xia Fenghua for many years, he still has no doubts.

"Your Highness, why are you so sure? The desperate resistance of the forces of the enemy and us is considered a draw, why don't you join up with the Fenghua County Lord and them to capture Yangshang in one fell swoop. General Gai finally opened his mouth and asked.

Gu Zi'an smiled and put down the scroll: "It's not appropriate to attack this word." ”

"Why?"

"To attack the city, you need at least ten times the number of soldiers and horses in the city, and I believe General Gai also knows it."

General Gai nodded, but he was still puzzled.

"It's everyone who thinks I'm dead, so I have to support Gu Chongwu as king. If you find out that I am not dead, if you find out that the first king was harmed by the Zhao family. That's another thing. After nearly two months of probing, he finally found his father's body in the ice cellar of the palace. Although the black blood has been washed away, the traces of poisoning and death are still there. Besides, not to mention my father, I will also appear in front of them alive. I am the only son of Beiyang. In this way, Gu Chongwu's justification for inheriting the unification disappeared, and the Zhao family's abacus also failed. Bloodless is the best, and if they resist to the death, they will also have doubts in their hearts. After all, if you want to murder the son, you should be punished. So, even if the strength of the troops is almost the same, there is no need to worry. ”

Gu Zi paused, took a sip of tea, and smiled again: "If they resist, they need to bear the charge of killing the king and seizing power." And our goal is actually only one, not these tens of thousands of troops, but to kill Zhao Yien, control Gu Chongwu, and the rest of the people will surrender. Therefore, it is not a siege, only one person is killed, and the rest will be surrendered. His eyes were resolute, and General Gai couldn't help but sigh in his heart for his recklessness. In Gu Shizi's heart, all he was thinking about was a bloodless strategy.

All armies only feint, not fight.

Zhang Ji lifted the curtain and came in, brought in the news that had just been delivered, and handed it to Gu Zi'an.

"Look at it, Meng Yining and Le Yi have done something interesting."

Gu Zi'an raised his eyebrows, took the paper, and read it carefully. The corners of his mouth pulled up, and he smiled twice: "This is also a windfall, this time they are not fighting each other, and they can stay in peace." There is no change in the deployment outside the city, and it can be regarded as Zhao Yien pulling out a nail for us. ”

General Gai looked at Gu Zi'an's expression and asked, "What's the matter?" Your Highness, you are so pleased. ”

"Zhao Hai is dead." He also didn't expect that the two of them would actually make such a big move in Yangshang, "In this way, according to the plan, Zhao Yien can assist Gu Chongwu to ascend the throne." They will definitely be as soon as possible, after all, the throne is vacant, which will cause turmoil in the times. Immediately, we can enter the yang. Let everyone go down and prepare. And the two hundred, separated, I want to see them. ”

Zhang Ji nodded. After all, Gu Zi'an didn't show his face, and everyone thought he was dead. These two hundred people are talents selected by Zhang Ji to be one of ten, and they are loyal to him in life and death. But there was no certainty in the hearts of the people. Although he worked hard for Zhang Ji, he didn't know the deeper reason. Gu Zi'an needs to show up in front of them and take a dose of reassurance.

At night, Zhang Ji gathered 200 people in the backyard of the county government.

There are heavy guards around, and no one knows what to do.

Everyone whispered, and also saw the continuous flow of wooden boxes to the army recently, and knew that something big was coming.

"I look at the boxes that are quite large, and when they are huddled together, each box can hold at least ten people. Will we be going somewhere? ”

"Where to go? Go to the sun? Or is it somewhere else? ”

"Elder Ji selected us, there must be something important to do. Even if we want to break our heads, we can't think of a reason. It's better to wait. ”

Everyone discussed in a whisper, and Zhang Ji pushed the door open from the house. The lanterns on both sides illuminated his resolute face, and there was a sudden silence around him. Everyone stood up straight and looked at him. Gu Zi'an was wearing a white dress, and slowly walked out from behind Zhang Ji with his hands behind his back, his eyes reflecting the firelight.

Two hundred people looked at this familiar figure, standing tall in front of them, as if in a dream. Didn't he die half a month ago? How to stand alive in front of yourself.

Gu Zi'an has a handsome face, neither humble nor arrogant. His eyes were bright, he looked around at the people in the courtyard, and cleared his throat lightly, "As you can see with your own eyes." ”

He stood in the center, like a pine tree.

Shocked by the man in front of him, no one talked about it.

"Now in Yangshang, the Zhao family is in power. Zhao Chai sent people to infiltrate the mission and the army, and quietly poisoned him three times and twice. Fortunately, even if someone saw through it, otherwise, as he wished, I would have died in Huangquan. Gu Zi'an stared at it like a torch, and his sharp gaze made people sweat coldly behind his back. His voice is not loud, but his voice is sonorous and powerful, which is completely different from the image of the sick and weak son rumored by the outside world.

He paused and continued: "The first king was also poisoned by Zhao Hai, and he has been in secret for several months. Finally, when the Zhao family learned of my death, it was announced. The Zhao family poisoned the first king internally, and colluded with other countries externally. Beiyang is now in danger, Yan Rong is eyeing the Zhao family, and the country has been without a monarch for many days. This is a moment when the survival of the country is at stake, and it must not fall into the hands of traitors and thieves. ”

He didn't say much, but the truth came out. One sentence solved the question that had been held for so long, and everyone suddenly respected Gu Zi'an, who had been enduring for a long time.

"The heavy responsibility rests on your shoulders. Gu Chongwu and the Zhao family plotted to kill the first king, and the crime was unforgivable. I will join you in the crate and enter the palace, and the rest of the men will join us in the vicinity of the palace to destroy all these rebels. It's not about fighting to the death, it's just about telling the world. I'm alive. They have tried their best to collude with other countries, but in the end they are nothing more than fools' dreams. Beiyang, you can't be cut off in the hands of this person, and you are holding the future of Beiyang. ”

Gu Zi'an didn't say anything grandiose, he didn't make a pre-war declaration in the tone of a general. The words are like a needle that firmly stabilizes everyone's minds.

They are the future of Beiyang.
