In the past two days, Lin Bai has roughly figured out the strength of Xinzhou, and there are quite a few of them, about 15,000 people.

But most of them are disaster victims.

In addition to them, there are also some victims who have joined before, and their equipment may be better than them, but it is also limited.

And the truly well-equipped army may not even be 3,000.

Don't underestimate these 3,000 people, the Red Lotus Sect is just a grass platform team, a rebel sect, and it is already a very remarkable thing to be able to have such a big momentum and get so much equipment.

What's more, they still have soldiers in other places, and the soldiers in Jing'an County are more than here.

There must also be a lot of troops on the side of Changjin County.

This is only Hedong, you know, this time there is also northern Shaanxi, what is the situation there is not clear for the time being.

But it won't be worse than Hedong, which shows that the Red Lotus Sect has really been planning for a long time.

Of course, these are far away, let's just say that the current Xinzhou, 3,000 well-equipped soldiers, and more than 10,000 victims, although this force is not small.

But Liu Feihu's army should not be underestimated, with a full 5,000 fully equipped soldiers, and it is also equipped with a lot of Zhuge crossbows.

Although the number of people is nearly half, but when they really go to the battlefield, a group of disaster victims who have been put together temporarily cannot be compared with the regular army, and Liu Feihu's 5,000-strong army will definitely be no problem if they defeat these people.

And that's very problematic.

In this case, where did Zhu Zhen get the confidence to attract himself? Or rather, where did he get the confidence to deal with himself in such a situation?

Are there any other hole cards?

Falcon was also puzzled: "I don't see any absolute advantage over them at the moment." ”

"Moreover, the White Lotus Protector and the Black Lotus Protector each control a lot of people, and they are not completely loyal to Zhu Zhen at the moment, but they are not opposed."

Lin Bai asked, "How many people do they control?" ”

Falcon said: "There are about two or three thousand in total, and one thousand are the elite of the Red Lotus Sect, fully equipped. ”

Oh!

Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, if this is the case, Zhu Zhen will be able to control even fewer troops, so where does he get his confidence?

It seems that only the last possibility remains.

……

At the same time.

In a certain exquisite chamber, the Black Lotus Protector waved his hand and said, "You all go down!" ”

"Yes!"

After the entourage retreated, he was the only one left in the chamber, and there was also a man, the White Lotus Protector, one of the eight protectors of the Red Lotus Sect.

The White Lotus Protector frowned slightly at this time, looking a little curious.

In the past two days, the other party has looked for him twice, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he still heard the meaning, and the other party also supports the saint, but in the current situation......

"Brother Zhang, what's the matter?"

The Black Lotus Dharma Protector said: "Brother Bai is quick to talk, and Zhang will not sell Guanzi, dare to ask Brother Bai what his plans are next?" ”

The White Lotus Protector shook his head helplessly and said, "What else?" The sect leader's order is already like this, and we can only accept our fate. ”

Black Lotus Dharma Protector said, "Brother Bai really thinks so? Zhu Zhen is not a good stubble, there are also the previous dynasties, they have always looked down on us, if Zhu Zhen is not powerful, it will be forgotten, once he gains power, he is only afraid that we will ......"

He didn't go on with that, but the meaning was clear.

The White Lotus Dharma Protector also knows it.

The former dynasty faction has always looked down on these people, thinking that they are a group of reckless men who cannot be put on the stage, and now is the time to employ people.

Once Zhu Zhen is really good, then they will have no status.

To put it mildly, even if Zhu Zhen wins the world, it is estimated that nothing will happen to them, and there is a high probability that they will be liquidated.

It's just that, even if you know, there is no better way at the moment, the sect leader has already ordered, and the saint is under house arrest again, not to mention that even if the saint is not under house arrest, her personality is not strong enough.

"Brother Zhang, what are your plans?"

The White Lotus Protector's eyes flickered, and he looked at the Black Lotus Protector with deep meaning.

The Black Lotus Protector also glanced at him, and it could be seen that the two of them were a little wary of each other, after all, this matter was not small, and no one knew what the other party was thinking.

However, the Black Lotus Protector still said: "I'm ashamed, Zhang doesn't have a good way, why don't you come to discuss with Brother Bai!" ”

He observed the other party's reaction as he spoke, and seeing that the other party was a little disappointed, the conversation also changed, "Brother Bai, we are all our own people, you might as well open the skylight and say something, I can't trust Zhu Zhen." ”

The White Lotus Protector said: "Bai Mou is not, but who can we trust now? ”

The Black Lotus Protector said, "Of course, it's the Holy Maiden. ”

The White Lotus Protector was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: The Holy Maiden is naturally worthy of trust, but in this situation......

The Black Lotus Protector naturally knew his doubts and continued: "Although the Holy Maiden has temporarily lost power, it doesn't matter, what matters is the person behind her. ”

The White Lotus Protector was even more puzzled, and asked in surprise, "The person behind the Holy Maiden?" ”

"Not bad!"

The Black Lotus Protector glanced around to make sure that there was no one, so he lowered his voice and said, "What does Brother Bai think about the relationship between the Holy Maiden and the King of the Southwest?" ”

The White Lotus Protector looked stunned and looked at the Black Lotus Protector in amazement.

The Black Lotus Protector continued: "You and I both know that the Holy Maiden did not hesitate to expose her identity to face the imperial army for the sake of the King of the Southwest, and the King of the Southwest finally saved the Holy Maiden and recognized the Holy Maiden as her cousin. ”

The White Lotus Protector said: "This is different, at that time, the holy woman thought that the king of the southwest was the prince of the previous dynasty, so she ...... The king of the southwest saved the saint and was only acting, and he faked his death......"

"No!"

The Black Lotus Protector denied it, "Brother Bai is the most trusted by the Holy Maiden, he should know the Holy Maiden's thoughts, and also know the Holy Maiden's past, and the Southwest King Saving the Holy Maiden is not just acting. ”

"If it's acting, then he won't come this time......"

The White Lotus Protector was stunned for a moment, "This time? ”

Black Lotus Dharma Protector said: "Not bad! The king of the southwest came for the holy woman, and he said that the holy woman was held hostage by Zhu Zhen, I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that ......"

As he spoke, he glanced at the White Lotus Protector, "Brother Bai must know, right?" ”

The White Lotus Protector's eyes were deep, and he looked directly at the Black Lotus Protector.

The Black Lotus Protector continued, "If the King of the Southwest supports the Holy Maiden, what does Brother Bai think? ”

The White Lotus Protector paused and said, "He is a member of the imperial court, if he does this, wouldn't he be betraying the Red Lotus Sect?" ”

The Black Lotus Protector said, "Red Lotus Sect? The sect leader has not shown up for many years, and no one knows if he is still there, who can represent the Red Lotus Sect? Only saints! ”

"Even if the Holy Maiden doesn't have the intention of rebelling, it won't be Zhu Zhen's turn, how long has it been since he joined the Red Lotus Sect? What we listen to him is betraying the Red Lotus Sect. ”

"The most important point, with the king of the southwest here, do you think he may succeed in his rebellion?"

"Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he succeeds in his rebellion, do you think the king of the southwest will still sit idly by, and the army of the southwest will still be like now, not to set foot in the court?"
