Chapter 70: How to prevent the elbow and armpit

February in Youzhou is no more cold than elsewhere, and it is still very cold compared to other places. Especially in the middle of the night, it can be called cold to the bone.

All this, coupled with the wailing of all kinds of birds and beasts from the mountains and forests, suddenly makes people feel creepy.

However, even in such an environment, there are still fearless people who want to stir up the storm here.

It can be seen that no matter how terrible the natural phenomena are, they do not seem to be able to stop the progress of the profitable. Perhaps, this is the human heart.

At this moment, there is definitely more than one person who wants to sneak into Youzhou and make a move.

And at the same time that these people secretly infiltrated Youzhou, Liu Xinyu and others' actions against the Khitan were also quietly launched.

It's just that Liu Xinyu still doesn't know whether there is a fatal potential blow that he doesn't realize in addition to the superficial dangers that they are aware of and even uprooted one by one.

After all, the enemy is dark and I am clear, and with Liu Xinyu's current ability, he can't take care of it at all, so he can only see the moves.

The top priority now is to consider how to force the Khitan to retreat, or even take the initiative to defeat it in order to relieve the danger of Youzhou.

Just when Liu Xinyu was at a loss for this, a mysterious person secretly entered the Marshal's Mansion in the middle of the night, and fixed a secret letter on the door panel of Liu Xinyu's room, and then deliberately made him aware of it so that he could open the letter in time.

Seeing this, Liu Xinyu chased out, but he didn't see anyone.

I only learned from the mouth of a servant that there seemed to be a "white shadow" flashing in front of him just now.

But the man's movements were so rapid that the servant could not be sure for a moment whether he had seen a figure or whether he had hallucinated from the hard work of the past few days.

Seeing this situation, Liu Xinyu didn't have time to think about it, and even read the letter.

After reading the letter, Liu Xinyu couldn't help but be overjoyed, and then came up with a clever plan to deal with the Khitans.

However, it didn't take long for Liu Xinyu, who was secretly happy just now, to fall into contemplation again, and then several questions couldn't help but come to his heart.

Who is the other person? Friend or foe? What's the point? Could this be a trap?

In order to further determine the reliability of the news, Liu Xinyu, who has always been cautious, secretly sent a trusted confidant to infiltrate the Khitan military camp, waiting for an opportunity to inquire about the news and be responsible for secretly responding to it.

A few days later, Liu Xinyu was finally convinced of this after many inquiries, so he immediately launched an operation against it.

In the middle of that month, Liu Xinyu, as the generalissimo of the marching army, sent an old man who seemed to be old and incompetent, and then went to the Khitan military camp, intending to make peace with Ke Sudden's truce.

But when I suddenly saw this, I was surprised and carried away. Thinking that his army has been winning battles for several days, but ** is retreating and retreating to the city, all signs indicate that the other party has no talent for generals.

Now he has taken the initiative to send envoys to negotiate peace, which shows how vulnerable the ** at this moment is, and the land of Youzhou is at your fingertips.

As everyone knows, this is a trap set by the other party for him, and if he is not careful, he may die without a place to be buried.

In order to prevent accidents, Ke Yu, who has always been cunning and suspicious, suddenly left a hand.

On the one hand, he pretended to keep the envoy and stay in the camp for the time being, but on the other hand, he secretly gathered men and horses to prepare to seize Youzhou.

In fact, Ke Tu didn't really believe in the words of the envoy, all of this was just his delaying tactic.

But what Ling Ke didn't expect was that his self-made smart move was in the hands of the other party.

It turned out that the real purpose of this envoy's visit was not to negotiate peace, but to take the opportunity to plot against a key figure in the Khitan army, in order to flank and even inflict heavy damage on the Khitan army from inside and outside.

This seemingly incompetent messenger was in fact a wise man of eloquent art, and the reason why he made such a gesture was entirely to confuse the abrupt and make it difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

Here's how it happened, there was a general surnamed Su and Ke in the Khitan army who suddenly had a discord. and disdainful of what he did, he has long been anti-willing.

However, because of his personal weakness and hesitation, General Wang was forced to act under sudden obscenity for a long time, so he was unable to take action.

It wasn't until the mysterious person secretly informed Liu Xinyu of the matter in the form of a letter and sent an envoy to meet with him secretly that General Wang's heart was much firmer.

Although General Wang was a Khitan general, he also knew that there was a clear distinction between right and wrong. It's just that he is a little cowardly by nature, and he can't help but hesitate to look ahead and hesitate to deal with things.

**The envoy came this time to persuade General Wang to abandon the darkness and turn to the light.

After some reasoned and well-founded persuasion, General Wang finally agreed to cooperate with the ** inside and outside to achieve a great event.

There is a way that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch behind, and just as they are carefully planning with each other, they don't know that the conversation between the two has been eavesdropped, and this eavesdropper is actually General Wang's henchman.

It turned out that Ke Yu had already noticed that General Wang had different intentions. In order to prevent accidents, he installed this person as an internal response, so as to give the other party the heaviest blow at a critical moment. It can really be said that people's hearts are unpredictable and unpredictable.

When General Wang noticed it and wanted to kill it, the man had already managed to escape, thinking that he must have sent a message to Ke Tu Yu.

How good is that? If this person tells the content of the secret conversation between the two, it will be difficult not only to achieve a major event, but also to save his own life and even the lives of the generals.

When General Wang thought of the domineering and murderous style of doing things on weekdays, he couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster and cold sweat flowed, so that he involuntarily sat on the ground, lamenting that his life was not long in coming.

However, what he didn't expect was that about an hour after this incident, the corpse of the spy actually appeared in front of General Wang unnoticed.

What is even more surprising is that the person who killed the spy also wrote a note and pasted it on the person's forehead to inform General Wang that this person had not leaked the secret, so that he could rest assured.

It can be seen that this mysterious man not only heard their conversation, but also knew the situation in the army well.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for this man to come and go freely in this densely populated barracks without being discovered, and it would have been impossible for him to strike and kill the spy so quickly and send him back without a word.

It is worth mentioning that although the spy was dead, there was no trace of blood on his body, and no wounds or strangulation marks could be found.

So why did he die? If you are not caught in some kind of evil magic, you will be killed by someone with excellent martial arts with a unique secret technique.

Thinking of this, General Wang couldn't help but gasp. I thought to myself, there are such characters around me, and I don't know whether they are friends or foes, how can I sleep peacefully in the future?

Regardless, the plan went smoothly, but after this incident, everyone became more cautious.

Without further ado, late will change. In order to prevent any more accidents, General Wang immediately decided to cooperate with ** inside and outside, and the joint attack can be abrupt.

Just when Ke was suddenly engrossed in commanding the army, and then preparing to attack in a big way in order to take Youzhou, General Wang, who had been standing solemnly on the side, suddenly had a hideous face.

Before Ke Tu Yu could come to his senses, General Wang's sharp knife had already stabbed into Ke Tu Yu's body.

Maybe it was because Ke Tu Yu had been wary of General Wang beside him, or General Wang hesitated at the moment when he stabbed the blade at Ke Tu Yu, so that this knife did not hit Ke Tu Yu's vital point, so he failed to kill him in the first place.

The panicked General Wang saw that something was wrong, and even took advantage of his unpreparedness to fight out of the encirclement. And Ke Tuyu also had to retreat first because of his injuries and made another plan.

Unexpectedly, the morale of ** saw that there was civil strife in the Khitan army, so he decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and he had the momentum to crush the enemy army in one fell swoop.

But suddenly seeing that something was wrong, it suddenly dawned on me. It is expected that General Wang and others must have set up this vicious plan, and it seems that he must be killed.

However, at this moment, Ke Sudu, who was seriously wounded, was no longer able to continue to lead the army. In desperation, he had no choice but to hand over the responsibility of leading the troops to the deputy general.

But how did he know that in the face of such a critical situation, how could ordinary people control it?

Sure enough, the Khitan army, which was already in chaos, was defeated and retreated under the command of this confused officer, so that the whole army lost their armor and fled in panic.

In the end, this man had to retreat the entire army for dozens of miles in disarray, and set up camp here to recuperate for a future counterattack.

However, this fiasco is no longer important to Ke Su, who is already unconscious and on the verge of death, and the top priority now should be to find a way to continue his life as soon as possible. Otherwise, as the commander-in-chief of the whole army, he can suddenly return to the west, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Of course, for Liu Xinyu on the opposing side, he wished that he would suddenly die immediately. And this is what all the soldiers who shed their blood and sacrificed for this purpose, as well as all peace-loving people, are happy to see.

The words are divided into two ends, at the same time that Liu Xinyu and others broke the Khitan army, Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, was surging with murderous opportunities.

In this seemingly peaceful general's mansion, there are actually many forces hidden.

Let's talk about Liu Ruotian, who has become a little sneaky since he recovered from his injury. There is a strange aura from head to toe, which is more and more elusive.

And Li Yuqi was not idle, he was depressed and mysterious all day long, and he deliberately avoided Liu Ruotian when he saw him, and seemed to be dissatisfied with him, which was most obvious when Guo Nianyao came into contact with him.

But what is strange is that at this moment, Liu Ruotian obviously knew Li Yuqi's admiration for Guo Nianyao, but he still did not keep his distance from Guo Nianyao.

Not only that, after amnesia, Liu Ruotian often deliberately approached Guo Nianyao under the pretext of seeing a doctor. And it seems that he still does these things in front of Li Yuqi as much as possible, as if he is deliberately provoking him.

Because of this, the relationship between the two also began to have a dislike, so that they became increasingly estranged. If this development continues, the situation will only continue to deteriorate, and maybe one day the two will turn against each other or even break off.

In fact, Liu Ruotian's various abnormal behaviors have already attracted everyone's attention. It's just that he "acted" too well, and he had the so-called amnesia as a cover, so even if others doubted him, they couldn't come up with conclusive evidence.

It wasn't until one night that things finally took a turn for the better.
