Chapter 260: Died on the battlefield
"Please also ask Miss Yan for your understanding." Liu Shaoqing gave Yan Xi a salute and said with a look of embarrassment.
Yan Xi helped Liu Shaoqing for a moment and asked, "If we have a way to solve the worries of the Liu City Lord, what should the Liu City Lord do?" ”
Liu Shaoqing's face was slightly shocked, looking at Yan Xi, his eyes narrowed into a line.
Without waiting for Liu Shaoqing to ask, Yan Xi leaned into Liu Shaoqing's ear and whispered something.
Liu Shaoqing listened to what Yan Xi said, and his expression became more and more relaxed. Hearing the end, a hint of joy finally appeared on his face.
After finishing speaking, Yan Xi took a step back and widened the distance between himself and Liu Shaoqing. raised his voice slightly, and said to Liu Shaoqing, "City Lord Liu, you already know the most important thing you shouldn't know, if you still insist on your own opinion, in order to keep this big secret, the prince and I can only be polite to you." ”
The smile on Liu Shaoqing's face froze, and he glanced at Yan Xi with a little resentment, and complained silently.
But Yan Xi ignored Liu Shaoqing's grievances, turned around and walked out of the study.
"You think about it yourself, tomorrow's discussion, I and the prince will see your decision."
Listening to Yan Xi's voice from outside the study, Liu Shaoqing's face showed a crying and laughing expression.
What's going on!
The next day, the Chamber was in session.
Without waiting for everyone to speak, Liu Shaoqing preemptively said, "Everyone, after a night of careful consideration, I think this method of the prince is still feasible. It's a bit risky, but as long as everyone works together, there is still a good chance of winning. ”
Hearing Liu Shaoqing's decision, those who originally agreed with this method were naturally overjoyed. And those who were originally against this method looked at Liu Shaoqing with puzzled faces.
Lord Castle, what's the matter? He was still against this yesterday, how could he completely change his mind overnight? Could it be that something happened last night that they didn't know about?
Thinking of this, someone even quietly looked in the direction of Xiao Zhihan and Yan Xi. But seeing that these two people looked as usual, they couldn't see any clues, so they had to give up.
"Lord Castle, what if this strategy fails?" The unwilling general asked.
"As long as everyone works together and doesn't leak this strategy in advance, it is impossible to fail!" Liu Shaoqing picked up the teacup on the table and said with a serious face.
"Even if this strategy succeeds, when the time comes, how will the exhausted 10,000 soldiers recapture Wan'an City from the king of southern Xinjiang?"
"If we can rely on 20,000 horses to trap the hundreds of thousands of troops of the king of southern Xinjiang in the evil ghost cliff, why can't we unite the power of 10,000 soldiers to recapture Wan'an City from the southern Xinjiang army that has repeatedly suffered defeats? With everyone guarding Wan'an City for such a year, I still believe in everyone's ability. As long as you're here, nothing is a problem! Liu Shaoqing took a sip of tea and continued seriously.
……
Watching Liu Shaoqing and the generals of Wan'an City ask and answer one by one, Yan Xi, who was watching by Xiao Zhihan's side, almost laughed out loud several times. This Liu Shaoqing is not only a talker, but also a big fool. As soon as he said a few words, these opposing generals were no longer as resolute as before, but slowly agreed to Liu Shaoqing's decision.
In the big tent of the king of southern Xinjiang, the king of southern Xinjiang, who is in his fifties, is sitting on the throne, looking at the graceful posture of the dancing girls. Beside him, several dancing girls in thin shirts were waiting for him with flattery on their faces.
In front of the big tent to the left, sat a man of about thirty years old with an extremely generous face. Watching the dancing girls intently, they turned a deaf ear to other things.
Directly across from him sat a somewhat sinister looking man. This man watched the song and dance while teasing the dancing girl next to him. From time to time, his eyes looked at the king of southern Xinjiang and the others in the big tent, like a cunning fox.
"Zuhair, what do you think?" Suddenly, the king of Nanjiang looked at the honest man and asked.
"Huh?" Zu Haier, the great prince of Southern Xinjiang, looked at his father with a blank face, completely unaware of what he was asking!
The king of Southern Xinjiang turned around and looked at the evil man opposite Zuhair, and asked, "Rida, you say." ”
The evil man glanced at Zu Haier with disdain, saluted respectfully to the king of southern Xinjiang, and said, "Father, the third brother is brave and fearless, and it is only a matter of time before he takes Wan'an City." It's not too early to divide the land for him. Maybe the third brother can be grateful to his father, and take our Erlang from southern Xinjiang to attack the royal capital of Xiao State in one fell swoop! ”
"Hahahaha......" The king of Nanjiang was pleased by the words of the second prince Rida, laughed out loud, and said to Rida, "Rida, you go and send a letter to Hademi, just say ......"
Before the king of Nanjiang could finish his words, a soldier covered in blood broke in from outside the big tent.
"Protect the King." When the soldiers around the king of Nanjiang saw the person who broke in, they immediately surrounded the king of Nanjiang tightly.
"King, it's me!" The man who broke in fell to his knees, looked up at the king of southern Xinjiang, and cried.
The king of Nanjiang frowned and looked at the person in front of him. Rida on the side suddenly said loudly, "Father, he is Hadmi's lieutenant. ”
Hearing this, the king of southern Xinjiang was shocked. He pushed away the soldiers who had protected him and walked over to the lieutenant general. He lifted the lieutenant general from the ground and asked loudly, "Shouldn't you be outside Wan'an City at this time?" What happened? What about Hadmi? ”
The adjutant general looked at the king of southern Xinjiang, his lips moved a few times, and finally cried and said, "The king, the third prince, he was beheaded by King Ming of Xiao State and died on the battlefield. ”
The king of Southern Xinjiang stiffened, glared at the deputy general and said, "Nonsense! Hademi is the number one warrior in southern Xinjiang, how can those weak princes of Xiao State be his opponents! ”
"The king, the little ones don't dare to deceive! It was the scheming king who injured the mount of the third prince, and took advantage of the distraction of the third prince to sneak attack and control the third prince. When he thought of the scene outside Wan'an City that day, the lieutenant general felt trembling all over.
"Where's Hadmi's body?" The king of Nanjiang asked angrily.
Hearing the words of the king of southern Xinjiang, several bloodstained soldiers outside the big tent walked in with a stretcher.
The king of Nanjiang staggered to the stretcher, lifted the white cloth on the stretcher, and saw the headless corpse lying on the stretcher. Turning suddenly, like an angry lion, he glared at the lieutenant, "Where's Hadmi's head!" ”
"Yes...... It's the fox! The fox bit off the head of the third prince in one bite......" the lieutenant's body trembled, and he said a little incoherently.
The king of southern Xinjiang looked at the body of Hademi lying on the stretcher, as if he had suffered a great blow, and was speechless for a long time.
"King, you want to avenge the third prince!" The deputy general lay in front of the king of southern Xinjiang and said bitterly.
The king of southern Xinjiang looked at the deputy general coldly and said, "Hademi's revenge, this king will naturally avenge him." But you, Hadmi are dead, why are you still alive? ”
As he spoke, the king of southern Xinjiang pulled out the knife on his waist and stabbed it into the chest of the deputy general.
The adjutant general looked at the king of southern Xinjiang with wide eyes, full of unwillingness.
The soldiers who came in carrying Hadmi's body saw the tragic death of the adjutant general, and they instantly had the idea of escaping. But before they could stand up, several scimitars stabbed them from behind.
"Come, reorganize the army, and set off immediately! This king is going to avenge Hadmi, to trample Wan'an City to the ground, and to let the royal family of Xiao Kingdom, chickens and dogs not stay! The king of Nanjiang wiped the blood stains on the scimitar, retracted it into the scabbard, and said with anger.
"Father, slow down." At this moment, Rida spoke out to stop the king of southern Xinjiang from stepping out of the big tent.
Nanjiang frowned and looked at Rida, his eyes were full of anger, and he said extremely dissatisfied, "Rida, you dare to stop this king from avenging Hadmi!" ”
Rida shook her head, took out a letter from her arms, handed it to Nanjiang's hand, and said respectfully, "Father, please see." ”
The king of Nanjiang opened the letter suspiciously and looked at the contents of the letter.
After reading the content of the entire letter, the anger on the face of the king of Nanjiang gradually disappeared, and a touch of joy appeared in his eyes, holding the letter with one hand, patting Rida's shoulder with the other, and laughing and saying, "Okay, good!" ”
Zuhair, who was quiet on the side as if he didn't exist, heard the voice of the king of Nanjiang and quietly glanced at the letter in the hand of the king of Nanjiang. But he was too far away to read the contents of the letter.
"Father, has you agreed?" Rida looked at the king of southern Xinjiang and asked with a smile on his face.
"As long as he can help me break through Wan'an City, why is it difficult to give him a Gu worm that controls people's hearts?" The smile on the face of the king of Nanjiang froze, and in an instant, it turned into an impenetrable hatred, and he said in a deep voice, "You tell him for this king, King Ming's life, this king can keep it for him." But that woman and that fox, this king will cut them with a thousand knives! ”
"Rest assured, Father, he will be very happy." Rida smiled and glanced at his brother Zuhair, who was standing aside without any movement, with some provocation.
Zuhair turned a blind eye to Rida's provocation and continued to stand behind the king of Southern Xinjiang with his head bowed.
Rida felt bored and asked the king of Nanjiang, "I wonder who my father plans to send to be the commander this time?" ”
"Hmph, this time, this king is going to go out in person! This king wants to see King Ming kneeling and begging for mercy, and he wants to peel the skin of that woman and that fox with his own hands! The king of Nanjiang snorted coldly, glanced back at the unpleasant eldest son behind him, and continued, "Zuhair, you and Rida go with this king. Go to the battlefield to taste the blood, you stay in the camp all day long, and you have lost the blood of my southern Xinjiang boy! ”
"Zuhair knows." Zuhair bowed his head and respectfully agreed.
Looking at Zuhair's submissive appearance, the king of southern Xinjiang was even more angry. Waving his hand, he said to Zuhair, "Okay, okay, you go down first!" This king looks at you like this, and you are exactly the same as your Han mother! ”
Zuhair's body stiffened, his fists clenched under his sleeves. Answered, and walked out of the big tent of the king of southern Xinjiang with his head down.
