Xie Bao's eyes widened angrily, he couldn't help but roar, and immediately ordered the guards to rush out to hunt down the assassin, but Di Xian stopped him and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, Brother Leopard, don't do useless work." Since the other party dares to be so arrogant, he directly shoots arrows and leaves a book, so he is naturally not afraid that you will catch him. ”

"it!" Xie Bao scolded angrily: "These turtle grandsons can only steal chickens and dogs, and they have the ability to come out and fight with grandpa and me!" ”

Di Xian held the strip of cloth in his hand, and sighed for a while, "Alas, this is going to be a bad thing." ”

Xie Bao snatched the strip of cloth from his hand and wondered, "What's wrong?" Isn't it just to warn us that they are going to kill Li Bing? We have so many soldiers and horses here, what are you panicking about? ”

"Brother Leopard, you don't understand the doorway." Di Xian was a little anxious: "Assassination and rescue, those are definitely two different things. No matter how many troops you have, sometimes it's useless! ”

Seeing that Xie Bao was still unclear, Di Xian patiently explained: "If it is just to prevent the enemy from coming to rescue a certain target person, then the key lies in the four words 'blocking the retreat'. Because no matter how you save people, in the final analysis, you still have to leave safely to be considered successful. Therefore, even if he has a thousand clever plans to reach the people to be rescued, as long as we send enough troops to guard all possible escape routes, it is often enough to make the other party retreat. ”

Xie Bao nodded again and again when he heard this: "Well, what you said makes sense, once the retreat is broken, it is impossible to escape!" ”

"This is the way to deal with the rescue." Di Xian continued: "However, assassination is completely different. The other party does not need to think about how to take the person away, as long as he thinks about how to kill the person, which is much less difficult. Especially for the Beiya Reverse Scale Division, it is as simple as a common meal! ”

Xie Bao was puzzled: "I don't understand this." We now control the entire Luoyi, and there are heavy troops in the imperial city. Just outside the Ziwei Palace, where Li Bing is located, there are thousands of people arranged on the inner and outer three floors, and I am afraid that even a fly will not be able to fly in. Xiaodi, why are you so worried? ”

Di Xian sighed helplessly: "How terrible the methods of the Reverse Scale Division are, no one really knows until today. For all who know are dead. At the beginning of the imperial capital incident, in one day, more than a dozen high-ranking officials and generals on our side died in their hands, and even my younger brother almost whimpered and lamented. Do you know who is going to do it to me? One of my most trusted and cared for fellow villagers has been by my side for five years! Like brothers! That day, he held a poisonous knife and stabbed me with gritted teeth, and I shudder when I think about it now. ”

Xie Bao said in a deep voice: "Well, I know a little about what you said. It is said that Chen Yunfan, the left general of the Xuanjia Army, was also killed in front of the battle by his own soldiers that day, and his head was chopped off, is that so? ”

"Indeed, General Chen died a very unjust death." Di Xian shook his head: "These are just some superficial methods of the Anti-Scale Division. There are countless more advanced routines. Let's just say that I was assassinated two days ago, and a slave maid who was commonly used next to me was secretly killed, and she disguised herself as her to serve me. It was also blessed by the gods and Buddhas, and at that time I happened to be alert to the fact that the maid usually had a habitual action, but she didn't do it that day, so she didn't drink the poisoned tea when she was slightly suspicious. Who knew that the other party found that the poison could not be killed, so he immediately changed to a strong attack, and he tried to kill me even if he died together. Fortunately, the guards reacted in time, otherwise they would have been killed by the Reverse Scale Division! ”

Xie Bao stuck out his tongue when he heard it: ", it's so terrible?!" ”

Di Xian sighed: "Alas, there are more mysterious and powerful ones." I've heard Mr. Law tell me that when he was working in the Scales Division, there was a master who specialized in assassination, and he actually trained a rat that could lurk in the target's house and hide for several days on end. As soon as you hear some kind of peculiar flute outside the window, a dozen rats will suddenly burst out of their holes and attack everyone in the room. But anyone who was bitten or scratched by a rat bled on the spot and died of exhaustion. You say, is the evil door an evil door or not? ”

"I'll fuck it, I don't even need an assassin," Xie Bao was dumbfounded: "Just send a few mice?" ”

Di Xian's brows tightened: "Not only that." The people of the Scales are everywhere, and they are very hidden. Do you dare to guarantee that the eunuchs and maidservants in the palace are fine? Dare to guarantee that the generals and soldiers of the Xuanjia Army are fine? These people can become outlaws who are not afraid of death at any time, whether they attack or use poison, even if one move misses, and then another move, it is impossible to prevent it at all. ”

"But...... Shouldn't they have come to rescue Li Bing? Xie Bao was a little puzzled: "Why do you want to kill him now?" ”

Di Xian gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "I also figured it out when I saw the strip of cloth just now." At the beginning of the river affairs in Bianzhou, after Taifu trapped Li Bing, it didn't take long to learn that Shen Lie had just left. Therefore, we judged that the imperial capital would definitely know that the crown prince was actually held hostage by us. According to normal logic, if the prince is with us, the emperor will kill, and if the prince breaks with us, the emperor will save him. Therefore, Taifu estimated that the other party would definitely organize manpower to come to the Eastern Capital to carry out the rescue, so he ordered my brother to take strict precautions. But now it seems that Li Chengwu is really ruthless this time, they have no intention of saving people at all! To be honest, for the imperial capital, killing Li Bing directly is indeed a better choice. ”

"According to what you say, if the Reverse Scale Division wants to kill the crown prince, we can't deal with it at all?" Xie Bao couldn't help but worry.

Di Xian shook his head: "It's not that it's completely out of the ordinary. What I am anxious about is that all the arrangements we made before were made to deal with and save people. I am not afraid that they will use all means to contact Li Bing, but I am afraid that they will succeed in taking Li Bing away, so they will spend their energy on blocking the way to retreat, turning the palace and even the entire Luoyi into a big prison that is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. No matter how many people you come, in the end, all of them will be unable to escape! ”

He paused, then continued, "But if you use this strategy to resist the assassination of the Reverse Scale Division, it will not only be useless, but it will also provide an opportunity for the other party to take advantage of. The reason why they blatantly archery and surrender is to show that they will not give up until they achieve their goals. I'm sure that the agents of the Reverse Scale Division who carried out the mission this time all had the same intention of ending up together! ”

Xie Bao patted his head: "Do you think there will be fraud in this?" ”

"Absolutely not!" Di Xian waved his hand: "There is no need for the Reverse Scale Division, and it will never do such useless work!" Besides, the Taifu started a war in Michi, and the situation was irretrievable, so what was the use of keeping the prince in the imperial capital? Wouldn't it be better to kill him and directly shake the morale of our army? ”

"Mmmm, that makes sense, makes sense!" Xie Bao agreed: "When you say that, I also think it is true. If I were the emperor, I would also use this method, but I am not my own son anyway. Xiao Di, what should we do next? ”

Di Xian thought for a while: "We only used the wrong method because of the wrong judgment in the past. However, he has a good plan, I have a wall ladder, and I want to take the prince's life from my hands, how can it be so cheap? ”

Xie Bao was curious: "Oh? Tell me quickly, will the plan be released? ”

"To prevent and rescue people, the emphasis is on 'blocking the way out'. And anti-assassination," Di Xian sneered while thinking: "It's still four words, hide the target!" ”

Xie Bao is rude and doesn't like to use his brain, but he is by no means a stupid person, and when he heard Di Xian say this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, wonderful." The two armies are fighting, and they are not afraid of how many people die, but if they can't find any trace of the enemy and have no target for attacking, then they can only cry out in vain. ”

Di Xian bowed slightly: "Brother Leopard is right. Mr. Lo once said that the most effective way to protect important people from assassination is to 'isolate' and 'hide'. As long as you can reduce your target's contact with the outside world and avoid revealing his location and trajectory, no matter how clever the Assassin is, it will be very powerful! ”

Xie Bao touched his beard and said suspiciously: "You plan to hide Li Bing?" ”

"Pretty much." Di Xian smiled: "Li Bing must not live in Ziwei Palace anymore." Although there are heavy guards there, the goal is too obvious, and the generals can't stop the pervasive means of the Reverse Scale Division. Therefore, Li Bing must be transferred to a place that no one knows, and all the palace maids and eunuchs must be driven away. ”

"Drive those people away, who will serve the precious prince?" Xie Bao asked.

Di Xian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Then I can only come." After the meal is ready, I first test the poison with a silver needle, and then let the cook try it himself, if there is no abnormality, I will serve it to the prince by myself, and there will be no big problem in terms of eating. As for making the bed, folding quilts, putting on clothes, etc., I am responsible for checking for abnormalities, and let Murong Xue take care of the rest. ”

Xie Bao frowned: "Murong Xue is still by Li Bing's side?" Why don't you drive them all away? ”

Di Xian let out a long sigh: "Didn't Li Bing say it?" Murong Xue must not leave his line of sight, otherwise he will commit suicide. At this time, let's get into less trouble. ”

Xie Bao pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, and then asked, "How to deploy the security forces?" Do you still need to send heavy guards? ”

"I think...... Not necessarily! Di Xian said: "A large number of men and horses guarding the side are tantamount to exposing Li Bing's position to the enemy. On the contrary, we should also keep the army in Ziwei Palace, so as to set up a suspicious formation, so that the Reverse Scale Division can be empty. The guards around Li Bing are afraid that Brother Leopard and I will be responsible for it. ”

"What are you kidding?! That's impossible! Xie Bao objected loudly: "I led the army to guard Luoyi, and I took care of the entire city, not as a bodyguard for the prince and Xiao'er!" Cheng Tian is guarding Li Bing's side, who will command the army? ”

Di Xian's head was as big as a fight, and he pleaded: "Brother Leopard, the city defense of Luoyang is of course very important, but after all, no signs of the enemy's attack have been found yet, and the soldiers and horses under your command are all battle-tested and well-trained, as long as they are properly distributed, there will be no problem in operating on their own." Now that Li Bing's important bargaining chip is in danger, one more master by his side will give him more certainty. The whole Luoyi has been counted, and there is no higher martial arts than you, I hope to help, Brother Leopard. ”

Xie Bao shook his head like a rattle: "You don't wear a high hat for me, and if you don't go, you won't go!" This kind of work as a bodyguard, I can't do it! ”

Di Xian was about to persuade again, but Xie Bao waved his hand impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense!" It's really not good, I'll pick a few sons with excellent kung fu from the army and let you dispatch them. In addition, another battalion of soldiers and horses was allocated to start searching for suspicious people in the city, striving to catch the assassins of the Reverse Scale Division first. General Ben is going to inspect the soldiers of Xiangzhou Mansion outside the city, so you should retreat first. ”
