Chapter 159: Conspiracy

At this time, Lin Haotian didn't have any willingness or reluctance in his heart, just a little surprised, but from Zhao Yu's expression just now, Lin Haotian knew that he was happy about this, since this was the case, why did he bother to talk more?

Thinking of this, he nodded slightly and said, "Everything is arranged by the king, if the king thinks that Weichen is a suitable candidate, then the minister will leave immediately." ”

"Okay, then I will listen to Du Aiqing's suggestion, appoint General Zhenguo as the commander of the three armies, this king will give you 200,000 elite soldiers, and immediately set off for Changyu and Shangpu two counties to encircle and suppress the wooden army!"

"The king is wise!" Without waiting for others to speak, Du Qing first praised loudly.

At this time, his heart was already happy, Tai Shuhong, the old fox, was stealing chickens and rice this time, and it was useless for anyone to go to this difficult bone of the wooden army, even if it was Lin Haotian, I am afraid that it would not be long before he would end up with a horse leather shroud and die of a fateful fate, this plan can be called killing people without seeing blood, even if Lin Haotian survived, it would be difficult for him to expel the wooden army from the territory of the Jin Kingdom, and when the time comes, he will still be punished by the king.

The smile on his face deepened at the thought of this.

Jin Wang Zhao Yu's clapper is tantamount to deciding Lin Haotian's expedition.

As soon as the dynasty dispersed, Tai Shuhong invited Lin Haotian to his mansion, and after a pause, he said, "Virtuous nephew, you ...... Are you really willing to lead an army to encircle and suppress the wooden army?"

Lin Haotian shook his head with a wry smile, and asked rhetorically: "Just now in the court, the prime minister didn't see it, the king is very keen on this matter, can I refuse?"

Uncle Tai Hong clenched his fists and said, "If you insist on not wanting to, I will go to the palace again to beg the king to see if I can make the king change his mind." ”

Lin Haotian smiled, he didn't see Tai Shuhong's appearance of defeating the rooster just now. If there was a way, why would he wait until now?

He can understand Tai Shuhong's kindness, and he doesn't want him to be too difficult, Lin Haotian said half-jokingly: "I also wanted to meet Mu Jun for a while, this time the king patted me forward, it was just what I wanted!"

His tone was lighthearted. But Uncle Taihong couldn't relax, he said with a straight face: "Can ...... But the wooden army is not so easy to deal with!"

Tai Shuhong as the prime minister of the Jin State, on weekdays, the main task is to assist Zhao Yu in dealing with daily government affairs, in his opinion, the wooden army is both brave and good at fighting, but also elusive, unguardable, in the past, there are many outstanding young generals full of confidence to go to the expedition. But these people often don't end well.

Although Tai Shuhong believes in Lin Haotian's ability, he doesn't think that he can go out safely this time, after all, the latter is his confidant, and now seeing him go to death, how can Tai Shuhong be willing to do it in his heart?

But Zhao Yu's order has come down, and it is superfluous for Tai Shuhong to say anything now,

He didn't want Lin Haotian's burden in his heart to be too heavy, and his face turned pale. He patted the latter on the shoulder and smiled at him. said: "But the old man believes that with the ability of the virtuous nephew, this trip should be no problem." After a pause, he stood up and said, "I have brought a gift for my nephew, and you can come out and see it." ”

Lin Haotian was stunned. As he walked outside, he smiled and asked, "What is it?"

followed Tai Shuhong to the courtyard, and he saw the war horse brought by the Xiangfu attendant at a glance.

This horse is pitch black, tall and strong, almost a lap larger than an ordinary war horse, and its brown fur is black and shiny. Like brocade, there is not a single stray hair under his body.

Lin Haotian doesn't know how to know horses, but he can also see that this horse is by no means an ordinary war horse.

Uncle Hong Zhengse said: "This horse was produced in Yanguo, I bought it from a Yanguo merchant two years ago, and I have never been willing to ride it, and now you are going to Pingyuan County, I think I need it more than me, so I give it to you!"

Lin Haotian looked surprised, good horses are hard to find, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them, anyone can see that this war horse is a good horse, to say that Lin Haotian doesn't like it, it is definitely a lie, but such a valuable gift makes it difficult for him to accept.

He paused for a moment, shook his head and smiled: "I understand the prime minister's kindness, but ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Tai Shuhong waved his hand with a big grin, walked to the front of the war horse, stroked its brown fur, and said faintly: "Virtuous nephew, why do you need to be polite to me? This horse is called Hurricane, and he will belong to the virtuous nephew in the future." ”

"Wind ......" Lin Haotian muttered the name, and in the end, he didn't refuse Tai Shuhong's kindness again, and accepted the wind horse gratefully.

After seeing the war horse, Lin Haotian thought of something again, he looked up at Tai Shuhong, and asked, "Prime Minister, last time I asked you to help investigate the matter of the purple feather coat, I don't know what the result is now?"

Hearing this, Tai Shuhong's originally smiling face suddenly stiffened, and after a long time, he said hesitantly: "This matter ...... This matter is already a bit eyebrow-raising......"

Lin Haotian's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked you, "Could it be that the prime minister has found her?"

"No, no, no!" Tai Shuhong hurriedly waved his hand, and at the same time secretly shook his head in his heart, thinking that it was better not to tell Lin Haotian what he knew, he smiled slightly, and said: "At this time, there are indeed some eyebrows, but the old man is not sure at present, virtuous nephew, you lead the army to the expedition first, and when you return triumphantly, I will give you an exact answer." ”

"But the prime minister ......"

"Huh? Could it be that the virtuous nephew can't trust the old man?"

"The prime minister misunderstood, I didn't mean that!" Lin Haotian looked at Tai Shuhong suspiciously, and from the latter's dodgy eyes, he seemed to notice something abnormal......

But since Tai Shuhong has already said this, he can't say anything more, so he can only wait patiently for his news......

The news that Lin Haotian was going to lead the army to conquer the Mu army spread far and wide, and it undoubtedly caused an uproar in the entire Wancheng, and before it was dark, the generals and strategists who had returned with him had gathered at his residence.

To Lin Haotian's surprise, it was Bi Wen who found him first.

As soon as he saw Lin Haotian, Bi Wen pointed out straight to the point that the encirclement and suppression of the Mu Army was far from being as simple as it seemed, after all, the two counties of Changyu and Shangpu were at the junction of Jin and Mu, and the roads extending in all directions could allow the weapons, armor and even the army of the Mu Kingdom to be transported to these two counties unimpeded, and although they had the advantage of people, the Red Army had a geographical advantage.

Lin Haotian gasped, this was a question he had never thought of, and it was not alarmist to consider Bi Wen's words carefully, once there was the kind of situation that Bi Wen said, then he would really be planted this time.

He pondered for a long time, but could not come up with a definite answer, and he muttered, "Then according to Brother Bi's opinion, how should I deal with it now?"

Bi Wen said categorically: "Since the Mu Army can enter our country, why can't we come to the bottom of the kettle and directly attack the Mu Country itself, as long as this is done, the Mu Country will no longer have the strength to estimate the army left in our country, and at that time, the Mu Army of Changyu and Shangpu will be completely reduced to a lone army." ”

"Attack the native ...... of Mu Country" Lin Haotian repeated his words thoughtfully, and after a while, he sighed faintly, stood up, walked to Bi Wen, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Bi Wen, this matter is easy to say, but you also know that the strength of our army left in Shuangfeng City is only about 50,000 people, as for the national capital, it is only 300,000 troops when it is full, I will take 200,000 people with me when I go out, and the remaining 100,000 will stay in Wancheng, how can you let me have extra troops to attack Mu Country itself?"

Bi Wen smiled and shook his head, and then, he leaned into Lin Haotian's ear and whispered, "Have you ever considered joining forces with the Red Kingdom to attack the Mu Country together?"

Joining forces with the Red Kingdom to attack the Mu Country, this is what Lin Haotian never expected, he looked at Bi Wen with a stunned expression, and at the same time, his eyes couldn't help but light up.

But after thinking about it, he was a little discouraged, he had just wiped out the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Red Country, and now although the two sides have temporarily ceased fighting, this does not mean that the Red Country has let down its guard against its own country, and forming an alliance with the Red Country is undoubtedly a plot with the tiger, and the other party may bite him back at any time.
