"This ...... Why is that?" Skein was shocked and looked at Zhao Si in surprise.

"The team transporting the silver had an accident when it was passing through Jinzhou, and its identity was exposed, and the 200,000 taels of silver have now been detained by Shangguan Xiu. ”

"Huh?" Skevin's surprise was when he heard this, and he stammered, "This ...... This...... Now that our army's food and salaries are insufficient, and I still need a lot of money to buy off Zhendong's forces......"

"Shi Kaiwen!" Zhao Si raised his head, stared at Shi Kaiwen with a torch in his eyes, and said, "Since you took refuge in Haotian, do you calculate how much silver you have taken from Haotian?

"Childe, I didn't spend any money on the silver that the court gave me, and everything I did was according to your instructions......"

"I asked you to take Beiqiu County, where is Beiqiu County now? I let you take Zhenxi, but where is Zhenxi now? You have not done any of the things I asked you to do, the only thing you can do is to ask for money, silver, and gold, so what's the use of me keeping you?"

Zhao Si's words shocked Shi Kaiwen's body, he couldn't help but weaken his knees, knelt down with a puff, and said in a trembling voice: "Childe, the villain is really taking refuge in Haotian, and the villain never has two intentions!"

Looking at Shi Kaiwen who was kneeling in front of him, Zhao Si bent down and said slowly: "Even if there are 110,000 rice buckets, it can't compare to a person who can really do things, and your loyalty is worthless in my eyes." The silver of the imperial court is not blown by the wind, and if you don't do well, I can only replace you with another person.

"No...... No...... Childe spare his life, Childe spare his life......" Shi Kevin knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Zhao Si stared at him, and his gaze gradually softened. Supporting puppets in the country of wind, if you are too talented, your own side will be difficult to control, if you are too much, you can't do anything, and the scale of this is not easy to grasp.

He took a deep breath, leaned back, and said, "It's not entirely a bad thing for Shangguan Xiu to withhold our money this time, at least it can make the imperial court no longer have unrealistic illusions about Shangguan Xiu. Now, Shangguan Xiu has become the biggest obstacle for our army to enter Zhendi, Shi Kevin, if you still want to keep your current position, help me to do this. ”

"Childe...... What did Childe tell me to do?"

"Get rid of Shangguan Xiu, no matter what means you use, in short, I want to make this person disappear forever. Zhao Si stood up and said: "Don't forget the lesson of the last time, Tang Wanyun slipped away under your nose, if you can't do it well this time, hehe, don't say it's you, even my position in the court is in jeopardy." If one day I am really transferred back to the imperial court, then you will only be able to fight alone in Zhenjun, how long do you think you can last?" As he spoke, he walked up to Shi Kewen, who was sweating like rain, stretched out his hand, pulled him up from the ground, put it close to his ear, and said word by word: "Do your best to kill Shangguan Xiu, this is you, and it is also my last chance, do you understand?"

"Yes...... Yes yes childe, I'm ...... I understand. ”

"You, the person I have chosen, and I strongly recommend it to Your Majesty, don't let me lose face in the court. Zhao Si gently patted Shi Kevin's cheek twice, and then he walked out with a smile: "Master Shi doesn't have to send it, I will say goodbye." ”

Zhao Si walked out of the study, leaving Shi Kevin standing alone and unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Under the coercion of Zhao Si, Shi Kevin was helpless, even if he had not completely dealt with the rebel forces in the Zhendong area, he could only bite the bullet and send troops to Zhenxi to attack the Zhenxi army led by Shang Guanxiu.

Shi Kevin can be described as menacing this time, personally going out to fight, and he was joined by Jiang Lian's rebels and Geng Qing's rebels in Zhendong. The strength of Jiang Lian's rebels and Geng Qing's rebels should not be underestimated, and each side sent 30,000 troops to form an alliance with Shi Kaiwen's 100,000 army, known as 200,000 to the outside world.

The reason why Jiang Lian and Geng Qing sent troops to help Shi Kaiwen was not that the two had been taken in by Shi Kaiwen for his own use, but that Shi Kaiwen promised them that once Zhenxi was captured and Shangguanxiu was eliminated, he only needed one of the four counties in Zhenxi, and the other three counties could be divided equally between Jiang Lian and Geng Qing.

Shi Kewen sent the most troops, but asked for the least territory, Jiang Lian and Geng Qing were full of joy and gladly accepted. The coalition composed of Shi Kaiwen, Jiang Lian, and Geng Qing came straight to Jinchuan County, and had the posture of swallowing the four counties of Zhenxi in one go.

Such a large-scale change in the rebels naturally failed to hide the eyes of the dark flag of Shura Hall, and the spies of the dark flag flew pigeons to send a message to Jinzhou as soon as possible, reporting the emergency military situation to Shangguanxiu. After receiving the summons from the secret flag spies, Shangguan Xiu immediately parried the generals and strategists under his command for a meeting to discuss.

In the hall of the county governor's mansion, everyone circulated the letters sent back by the Xijing spies. Since it is a pigeon handbook, there is not much handwriting in it, but the situation has been described clearly enough. After everyone saw it, they all frowned and showed a solemn expression.

Shi Kevin came to attack with an army of 200,000, but his own soldiers were less than 100,000, and the hardships of this battle can be imagined.

Shangguan Xiu glanced around at everyone present and asked, "Shi Kewen's rebels will arrive in Jinchuan County in a few days, what do you think about this battle, can you tell me?"

Cao Lei, who recovered from his injury, said loudly: "Brother Xiu, there is nothing to say, since people have already come to the door, we will face the battle, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover it!"

Shangguan Xiu glanced at Cao Lei, did not answer, and turned his eyes to look at the others. What he said was tantamount to nothing, and it didn't mean anything constructive at all.

Wu Nian and Kong Di were speechless, Dong Zhe smiled, and said: "The strength of the enemy army is stronger than the number of people, and the art of war is cloudy. This one is something we can use now. ”

"Oh, Dongzhe, what do you mean?"

"My lord, Jiang Lian and Geng Qing, who are allied with Shi Kaiwen, both belong to the Zhendong rebels, and the Zhendong rebels are not the only ones, there are also the Guanglin rebels, the Chen Xiang rebels and the Li Xing rebels, among these rebels, the Guanglin rebels are the most powerful, and the adults can send envoys to Zhendong to form an alliance with the Guanglin secret business. ”

Shangguan Xiu frowned slightly and said, "Alliance with the Guanglin rebels?"

"Exactly!" Dongzhe nodded in response.

Wu Nian shook his head and said, "We are a dignified government, how can we form an alliance with the rebels?"

Zhan Xiong nodded and replied: "What Mr. Wu Nian said is extremely true, if we form an alliance with the rebels, wouldn't we become the same party of the rebels, which is discrediting our own reputation." ”

"Reputation is not as important as life, if you can't even save your life, what's the use of reputation?" Dong Zhe Zhengse said: "Forming an alliance with the Guanglin rebels, the Guanglin rebels can sneak attack Jiang Lian and Geng Qing's lair in Zhendong, if he doesn't lead the army to rescue, the lair will be destroyed, as long as he and the two of them come back to rescue, the remaining Skevin family rebels will not worry." ”

Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes and asked, "What if the Guanglin rebels refuse to ally with us?"

"Then we also have to release the news of the alliance with the Guanglin rebels, as long as the news reaches the ears of Jiang Lian and Geng Qing, they will definitely have some concerns, even if they follow the Shi Kaiwen rebels to my Jinchuan County, they will not dare to go deep rashly, they will have to beware of the Guanglin rebels in the rear, so that the three rebels are out of touch with each other, and it is also beneficial to our side. ”

Shangguan Xiu nodded secretly, Dong Zhe was born in the rivers and lakes, his advice did not have these and those concerns, compared with Wu Nian and Kong Di, his thinking was much more flexible. Shangguan Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "I think Dong Zhe's view is feasible. ”

Wu Nian frowned and said, "My lord, once this matter reaches the ears of the imperial court, how can we explain it to the imperial court?"

"Explanation?" Shangguan Xiu snorted coldly and said: "Zhenjun is in turmoil, rebels are everywhere, it all depends on my Zhenxi army and one family to support the overall situation, the imperial court does not send a single soldier to reinforce the overall situation, what do we need to explain to the imperial court? As long as we can live, as long as Zhenjun still has the Zhenxi army under the banner of the imperial court, this is already the best explanation for the imperial court." ”

Luo Ren continued: "That's right! We have an alliance with the rebels, and that is also a last resort, and it is naturally best for the imperial court to understand, and if it can't understand, it must also understand as much as possible!"

Zhan Xiong shook his head again and again, and said: "Even if the imperial court doesn't say anything now, I'm afraid that in the future, the imperial court will use this matter to make a big fuss, and it will be unfavorable to Brother Yu Xiu!"

Shangguan Xiu said categorically: "There is a black cauldron, I will carry it, there is a notoriety, I will resist, it has nothing to do with you and others." ”

Zhan Xiong said hurriedly: "Brother Xiu, I didn't mean that. ”

"Since that's not what I mean, then don't say anything more, just do what Dongzhe wants, and I will immediately send someone to Zhendong. As he spoke, he looked around at the crowd and asked, "Who wants to make this trip?"

"My lord, I'll go. Without waiting for others to speak, Dongzhe stood up and bowed to Shangguan Xiu.

"Are you going?" Shangguan Xiu looked at Dong Zhe in surprise.

Dongzhe said: "Guanglin is also from the rivers and lakes, and I don't know much about it, but I have also had several faces, and the conversation is very speculative. ”

"It's just that it's dangerous. Shangguan Xiu said worriedly.

"I have taken refuge in the command of adults, and I have not yet made an inch, in my heart, I have always felt deeply uneasy, this time it is rare for me to contribute, and please do it!" As he spoke, Dongzhe bowed to the ground and did not straighten up for a long time.

Shangguan Xiu was moved when he heard this, he stood up, walked up to Dong Zhe, helped him up, and said meaningfully: "You are a strategist, not a general, and if you give advice by my side, you are making meritorious contributions." ”

"My lord, if I go, the chance of success is more than eighty percent, if you go by others, the chance is less than fifty percent, so let me go!" Dong Zhe looked at Shangguan Xiu with blank eyes.

He bit his lip and looked into Dongzhe's eyes, through his eyes, he could see his firmness and persistence. After a while, he nodded heavily, turned his head and said, "Old Duan!"

"The subordinates are here!" Duan Qiyue stepped out of the queue and bowed to Shangguan Xiu.

"Old Duan, I will hand over Dongzhe's life to you, you go to Zhendong with Dongzhe, be sure to protect Dongzhe's safety, if Dongzhe has three long and two short......"

"My old Duan will come to see Brother Xiu!" Duan Qiyue intervened. Kneel down and beg Baidu: mobixs
