"Big brother, here's the thing...... When eating, as long as you are full, you can hold on to one more bite, which is not only useless but makes yourself uncomfortable. It's the same thing to send troops to attack the city, in fact, our troops are not enough to capture Xuzhou City, if Li Jing and Murong Yanchao defend it, we may not be able to win the strong attack, and we may be counterattacked, and the price will outweigh the loss. Zong Xin said: "Li Jing is a grandson, if we force Li Jing to a dead end, he will resist with all his might, although Li Jing does not have many troops in his hands, but he can help Murong Yanchao to defend Xuzhou without losing, we only need to give him a road, Li Jing will slip away along this road, and we can completely recover the lost territory, as for Li Jing...... Sooner or later, you can deal with him, there is no need to force the dog to jump off the wall. ”

Chai Rong thought about it carefully, and what Zong Xin said was right. Murong Yanchao has more than 30,000 troops and nearly 40,000 troops, and Li Jing actually has 40,000 troops in his hands, or because Zong Xin's ambush caused him to lose 8,000, so now he only has 42,000 troops, and the two armies together are 80,000, which is also a very terrible number.

Of course, there are only more than 20,000 Tang troops in Xuzhou City, but if Li Jing is really forced to be in a hurry, he can call back his army and defend it with Murong Yanchao, and no one will be able to do anything at that time.

Fortunately, Li Jing wanted to escape, otherwise Murong Yanchao would not be afraid to face the battle, let alone defend the city. The Zhou army did not have the strength to attack Xuzhou City at all, let alone attack it, only confrontation. Therefore, they had to let Li Jing leave, so that they could rest assured that they could boldly attack Xuzhou City, and only in this way could they have the opportunity to kill Murong Yanchao personally.

"Master, should we send people to guard the other three city gates? What if Murong Yanchao's grandson is afraid of death and flees first? Xuzhou City is our own territory in Dazhou, and the soldiers in the city are also our Dazhou people, attacking the city or killing people is not our goal, we just want to kill Murong Yanchao alone. ”

Although Tianya is young, he always mentions the key points when he speaks, and everyone looks at Tianya with admiration. At this time, Tianya was only 11 years old, his strategic thinking and mind were far better than some adults present, and the overall situation was very clear, and only Master Zongxin could educate such an excellent child.

Both Fan Zhen and Dou Yi can be sure that the end of the world is the hope of the Great Zhou to unify the world. Although he is still young, he has already shown unparalleled talent, as long as he is allowed to grow a little more, his achievements may be far better than Guo Wei.

Zong Xin chuckled and said, "Hey, hey, you don't have to worry about this, Murong Yanchao will never run away." I have already set a trap for him, he thinks that he will never die, so he will defend Xuzhou City, even after the city is broken, he will not leave, and even want to take the opportunity to sneak attack as a teacher or Your Majesty. But that's one of my tricks, and he won't find out at all. ”

"What's the set?"

"It's hard to be fragrant~!" Zong Xin said excitedly: "Here's the thing, I'll tell you about it, and promise to laugh off your big teeth." ”

........................

At this time, Xuzhou City

Liu Chengjun finally recovered from his injuries and recovered from the fatigue of this time. Murong Yanchao often takes care of him personally, because his nephew has suffered too much in order to report to himself, which Murong Yanchao is also very distressed. Seeing Murong Yanchao's sincere dedication, Liu Chengjun was also very moved.

"Third uncle, don't you think it's strange, with my martial arts, I escaped in the hands of Zong Xin, and I was able to come to Xuzhou City alive. ”

Murong Yanchao said: "It's really strange, judging from your martial arts, if you meet Zongxin, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape." However, you were only injured a little, it seems that Zongxin deliberately let you go to Xuzhou to report the news, if it weren't for this, you would definitely not be alive now. ”

Liu Chengjun shook his head and said, "Third uncle, you guessed wrong." The battle report is so important, why did Zong Xin ask me to come and deliver the letter? Didn't he want to kill one by surprise? If you didn't know the news of my father's defeat, maybe you would all be killed by Zong Xin in Xuzhou City, isn't this his purpose?"

"That's reasonable...... Murong Yanchao said: "Then how did you survive from Zongxin's hands? The 80,000 armies of the Northern Han and Khitan all died at his hands, and his compassion will not be used only on you. How the hell did you escape from Zongxin?"

Liu Chengjun said: "The third uncle should know that there has always been a master by my father's side called Chi Dusk Dao Chief, right?" ”

"I have seen it a few times, he claimed to be a late senior brother, but he was kicked out of the school because of the wrongs of the late, so that he did not learn all the abilities, far less as late as Zongxin. Murong Yanchao said: "Could it be that he expected Zong Xin's ambush in advance to let you escape?"

Liu Chengjun shook his head and said, "It's not him, he doesn't have this ability yet." Chi Du invited a senior brother from Wudang Mountain, this person was named Guo Wuwei. Although his skills are still not as good as Zongxin's, he is proficient in this way. Originally, Wuwei Dao Chang came up with a way to break the city, saying that he wanted to set up a law platform outside the city, and he invited the sky to rain on the 7749th day, and then the siege of the city could break through Weizhou. It's a pity that at that time, we all thought he was talking nonsense, and he couldn't say a reason for it, so naturally it was even less convincing. Unexpectedly, when the city was attacked, Zong Xin had already hidden fish oil in the grass outside the city, and our army was annihilated by fire, and the fish oil burned violently, and our army had no choice. If there had been rain during the siege, the hay would not have burned, and even if it did, it would not have burned so violently. Although this person is not as capable as Zongxin, he should also be a master of metaphysics, but unfortunately he didn't believe his words at that time. ”

Murong Yanchao said: "If even he himself can't say a reason, no one will believe him in that situation." What does this matter have to do with Zongxin?"

"That's right, after the defeat, my father immediately ordered me to deliver a letter to Xuzhou, because there was no one available around me, and with my footsteps, I could reach Xuzhou as soon as possible, and the chance of survival was far greater than that of ordinary soldiers. My father sent me here so that Xu Zhou could get the news earlier, so as not to be caught off guard by Zongzhi. Liu Chengjun said: "Just before I left, Wuwei Daoist gave me half a stick of incense, he said that I came here to die for a lifetime, and the only way to survive is to light the incense, which can let me pick up a life." As a result, I came back because of this half of the incense. ”

As he spoke, Liu Chengjun took out half of the incense in his arms. Liu Chengjun carried this half of the incense with him, for fear that he would lose it, because this is a good treasure, and if there is this thing, he can save his life at a critical moment.

Murong Yanchao knew his nephew, and it didn't look like he was lying, but what was the use of half a stick of incense? Could it be that because Zongxin was a Buddhist, he wouldn't kill him after seeing the incense?

Liu Chengjun continued: "When I met Zong Xin that day, I thought it was a dead end, and then I tricked him to use the Jiuyang Burning Heaven Recipe to fight with me, my skills are naturally far inferior to Zong Xin, but because of the fire of the Jiuyang Burning Heaven Recipe, I lit the difficult incense, after the incense was lit, I was completely invisible, Zong Xin was in front of me, as long as he waved his hand, he could kill me, but he couldn't see me by his side." At that time, I wanted to take the opportunity to sneak attack, but the slightest movement was immediately felt by Zongxin, I didn't even dare to take a breath, Zongxin thought that he had heard it wrong, and he was in a hurry to chase me, so he left. ”

Murong Yanchao frowned when he heard this, and immediately looked at this incense carefully, never thinking that there was such a treasure in the world. However, Murong Yanchao had also heard that Zong Xin had a few treasures in his hands, his gourd could hold a river of water, and could make good things into fine wine, this gourd he had seen with his own eyes, and he thought it was very magical at first.

In addition, Zongxin also has a sword, which is cold, and he recognizes Zongxin as the master, and everyone else holding this sword will be frozen into ice.

Of course, the person with the most treasures is Lei Hong. Treasures like this are rare, but they exist. It's just that Murong Yanchao was unlucky and never got any treasures. Now that there is a life-saving treasure in front of him, Murong Yanchao has the heart to kill Liu Chengjun and snatch the incense in his hand.

It's a pity that only half of this incense stick is left, and the biggest difference between it and other treasures is ...... There are limits to his use. However, there are not many life-threatening moments in this life, as long as you keep it by your side, no one will want to kill yourself.

Of course, there is another shortcoming of this incense, I heard Liu Chengjun say just now, he originally wanted to sneak attack Zong Xin, but Zong Xin heard the movement. It seems that this incense can only hide the figure, but not the sound. If it doesn't hide its voice, then it can run rampant, killing whoever the world wants, and the other party doesn't even know that it did it himself.

How can there be such a perfect thing in the world? Now this half of the incense is already a good treasure, and the use is very limited, it is a pity that this thing falls into Liu Chengjun's hands, and his life is not very valuable.

Murong Yanchao was curious: "What is the origin of this thing?"

Liu Chengjun said: "I heard Wuwei Taoist say that this is the incense used by the head of Wudang Mountain when he succeeded him, and I don't know how many times the head of the house has been passed on, so the mana is strong and can save people's lives." ”

"Good stuff, really good stuff. Murong Yanchao was about to drool when he looked at it, and of course his appearance was also seen by Liu Chengjun, knowing that he wanted this half of the incense.

Liu Chengjun said: "Third uncle, Xuzhou City is too dangerous, but at this time, it will be impossible for you to escape from Xuzhou, but if Xuzhou City is broken, I am afraid that you will not even have a chance to escape." Therefore, this half of the incense stick will be temporarily stored here for you, and if there is a crisis, you can save your life by lighting the incense. I took the third uncle's family to Taiyuan first, at least the territory of the Northern Han Dynasty was quite peaceful, and Guo Wei didn't dare to call. ”
