Whew~

A man who looked like a common man was sweating profusely and running vigorously in the dense mountain forest. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Several soldiers with long knives in their hands chased him closely, "Stop! If we don't stand still, we're welcome. ”

The people in front glanced back and ran faster.

A soldier bent his bow and shot an arrow at the people scurrying among the trees.

Burst!

The arrow hit the people's left arm, and under the tremendous inertia, they staggered forward a few steps and almost fell.

The soldiers who were chasing after him quickly caught up, and several people worked together to push the people to the ground.

The sergeant commander kicked on the people and scolded angrily: "Tell you to run? Will you run to show Lao Tzu again? Say, "Who are you?" Why do you run away when you see us? ”

The people bared their teeth in pain, "Master Jun, I am a citizen who chops firewood nearby." I ran away when I saw you chasing after me. ”

"Nonsense, how can we chase you if you don't run away? Say, Are you a spy? ”

The people hurriedly defended: "Master Jun, I'm not a spy from Chang'an, so you can let me go." ”

"Hmph, don't admit yourself."

Wu Chang kicked again, "I didn't even say where you are, how do you know I'm talking about a spy from Chang'an?" Brothers, give me a good search, if you can really catch the spies, we will have money for drinking. ”

"Master Jun, you can't do this. I'm really a common people, not a spy. The man who claimed to be a common man struggled so hard that he suddenly pulled something out of his chest and put it in his mouth.

"Restrain him, don't let him swallow!"

One soldier grabbed the man by the wrist, and the other slammed the back of the man's head, knocking him unconscious.

"Captain Wu, you see, it seems to be a letter."

Wu Chang took the letter, flipped through it back and forth a few times, turned his head to look at his subordinates and asked, "Which of you is literate, see who it is written to?" ”

A few soldiers stared at each other, all of them were from a bitter background, who knew what bird characters were written on the letter?

Wu Chang shook his hand and scolded with a smile: "A group of unpromising cowards don't even know a word. Wrap up! ”

……

Han Sui has been very uneasy lately, and he can feel the pressure from Chang'an.

In the previous war, Chen Xu obviously had the opportunity to pursue the victory, but he gave up this opportunity, is there any conspiracy in this?

Why were Ma Dai and Pang De under Ma Teng captured alive, and then sent back intact. And his candidates, Li Kan and Liang Xing, were killed on the spot? Could it be that I, Han Sui, am so easy to bully?

In order to make up for the rift caused by the escape in the previous battle, Han Sui had already sent people to Wuwei three times to give gifts, hoping to ease the relationship between him and Ma Teng.

After Ma Teng shirked it twice, he finally accepted the gift and sent Ma Dai to send a return gift.

In the past few days, Han Sui has been entertaining Ma Dai wholeheartedly, hoping that he can go back to persuade Ma Teng to abandon his prejudices and join forces with him to fight against Chen Xu. Ma Dai was respectful and polite, and promised to come down.

Just as Han Sui was thinking about it, a soldier came to tell him that the patrol soldier had caught a spy from Chang'an and found a letter from the spy body.

A spy from Chang'an?

Han Sui immediately ordered someone to bring the spy and the letter.

A moment later, the spy was escorted in front of him by several soldiers.

Han Sui took the letter, and the handwriting on the cover was strong and powerful, and it read "General Chen Xu personally enlightened".

Han Sui opened the letter and browsed it carefully and quickly, and saw that the person who signed the payment was Ma Dai.

His face turned pale, and he pointed at the spy and asked, "Say, who sent you?" Who gave you this letter? Where are you going to send it? ”

The spy kept his mouth shut, and he swore to die.

"Hehe, it seems that I won't give you some color to see, you won't say it?"

Han Sui shouted, "Come on, torture me." By the way, order Yan Xing, let him watch Ma Dai first, and don't let him leave Jincheng. ”

"Yes, sir."

Cracking sound.

The executioner, with a leather whip dipped in salt water, whipped the spy incessantly.

The spy was desperately patient at first, but after half a pillar of incense, he couldn't hold on anymore and begged for mercy loudly: "My lord, I said, don't fight anymore, I will answer honestly." ”

"Alright, let's go down."

Han Sui ordered the soldiers to retreat, leaving only the henchmen and guards to ask, "Tell me quickly, where are you from, whose orders are you given, and to whom do you want to send the letter?" ”

The spy replied intermittently: "My lord, the little one is from Chang'an, and I have been ordered by the higher authorities to hand over a letter to General Ma Dai and ask him to forward it to General Ma Teng." The letter in the general's hand was written by General Ma Dai to my father-in-law. ”

"Oh?" The expression in Han Sui's eyes changed, "Since it's going to be given to General Ma Teng, why don't you go directly to Wuwei and give it to Ma Teng?" ”

"This, this, the little one is just acting on orders, I don't know why." When the spy spoke, his eyes dodged, and he didn't dare to look at Han Sui.

"Humph!" Han Sui patted the spy lightly, "Little brother, I don't think you're honest." If you don't tell the truth, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your head. ”

The spy broke into a cold sweat, and after some inner struggle, he told the truth: "My lord, the little one is here, not only to hand over the letter to General Ma Dai, but also to ask him to wait for the opportunity to assassinate you." If you don't have the opportunity, don't rush it. ”

"Humph! Come on, pull down and lock up the people! ”

After the spy was escorted down, Han Sui hesitated.

Although this matter has a certain degree of credibility, it may also be Chen Xu's discord strategy. Otherwise, why didn't you go to Wuwei to contact Ma Teng in advance, but to contact Ma Dai when he visited?

However, judging from the letters written by Ma Dai in his hand, Chen Xu and Ma Teng had already been in secret contact, preparing to join forces to eliminate themselves, divide the land equally after the war, and serve Ma Teng as the king of Xiliang.

In that war, Han Sui lost three generals. As for Ma Teng, he only lost more than 10,000 soldiers.

exchanged more than 10,000 soldiers for the name of the king of Xiliang and half of his own territory. This is him, and he will definitely not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Han Sui thought about it for a long time, but never came to a conclusion, so he could only decide to temporarily put Ma Dai under house arrest and wait and see what happened.

He also wrote a letter to Ma Teng, saying that he had a very happy conversation with Ma Dai and had a great feeling of forgetting the New Year. wants to keep Ma Dai in Jincheng for a few days, and hopes that Ma Teng will not misunderstand.

That night, Han Sui tossed and turned, constantly recalling the letter in his mind, and he never fell asleep until late at night.

Click.

Suddenly, Han Sui, who was half-asleep, heard slight footsteps and seemed to be walking towards his bed.

He was on guard, his eyes slightly open, and he saw a faint blue cold light.

Swish!

Han then kicked out, knocking the assassin back a few steps.

As he grabbed the weapon in the room to protect himself, he shouted, "Someone, there's an assassin!" ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Assassins immediately took the door and fled.

Han Suitie's face was blue, he couldn't imagine that someone really assassinated him, was it Ma Dai?

Suddenly, someone told General Yan Xing to ask for a meeting, and Han Sui immediately invited him to come in and speak.

Yan Xing hurriedly said when he saw Han Sui; "My lord, the last general has been ordered to monitor Ma Dai. Just now, a soldier reported that he quietly left the inn, and the target was your mansion. The last general hurried here, and heard that an assassin had committed an assassination, do you think this would be ......? ”

Han Sui gritted his silver teeth and roared in a low voice: "Ma Teng, in vain for me to fight with your brother, you actually joined forces with outsiders to seize my territory, and you want to kill me quickly." If this revenge is not avenged, I will not be a man! ”
