Thirty miles outside the east gate of Jianzhou City, in Huo Yunsheng's stronghold, Huo Yunsheng was sitting behind the desk in the handsome tent, holding a secret letter in his hand, lamenting as he read it, frowning. Hao Yaoqi and Hu Qiuren were on the left

Yiyi sat behind his desk, waiting for the commander to read the letter and speak. After a long time, Huo Yunsheng raised his head and smacked his lips, "Wave the flag, Qiu Ren, this is bad! Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong both surrendered to Tang Jiusheng

, they want to tie me up and sacrifice me to Tang Jiusheng!"

Hao Yaoqi frowned, but Hu Qiuren blurted out: "Impossible!" Hao Yaoqi glanced at him and continued to think. Huo Yunsheng was a little confused and asked with a forced smile: "Qiuren, what do you mean is impossible?"

Hu Qiuren shook his head and said: "General, think about it, Lin Guanqin had no motive to surrender to Tang Jiu Sheng! He and Hao Zhengtong planned to kill the guards and finally escaped from the city. Just when they were about to concentrate their forces and fight Tang Jiu Sheng, he surrendered to Tang Jiu Sheng

What are you doing? Besides, are you, General Huo, so easy to fall into the trap and be captured? This should be Tang Jiusheng's counter-intentional plan to deliberately cause discord between us! General, you must be careful!"

It turned out that after Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong escaped back to Dazhai, they did not dare to say that they were released by Tang Jiusheng. They only said that they used a trick to kill the guards, seize the horses and escape. Although they said they could escape the tight security

It is far-fetched to say that they are the commander-in-chief of Jianzhou City. As long as they come back, the soldiers and low-ranking captains must believe it. Otherwise, can they still trace the truth of this matter?

But Huo Yunsheng received a message from an undercover agent in the city, saying that Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong had secretly surrendered to Tang Jiu Sheng, so Tang Jiu Sheng released them and asked them to come back to gather troops and capture Huo Yun Sheng alive and present it to King Wei so that he could be treated by Fatty.

The disease summoned souls, and the two used this to get in. Although Huo Yunsheng was dubious, he didn't dare to be on guard. Otherwise, Tang Jiusheng would have no reason to let these two people back! Cut off their heads and hang them on the city gate. Here

It must be demoralizing.

Huo Yunsheng pondered for a long time, then called Zhou Dapeng, the deputy captain of the soldiers, into his tent. He whispered a few words in his ear, and Zhou Dapeng came out with the order. Huo Yunsheng smiled at Hao Yaoqi and Hu Qiuren and said, "No matter whether the matter is true or false, we must

Beware, I sent Zhou Dapeng to lead the scouts out to see what Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong were doing. Wave the flag and ask for mercy. You all go back. Tonight, bring a few hundred more soldiers and horses to patrol the camp before and after night to prevent it from being robbed.

!”

Hao Yaoqi and Hu Qiuren both stood up, said goodbye to Huo Yunsheng, and walked out of the tent one after another. Huo Yunsheng looked at Hu Qiuren's leaving back and fell into deep thought. During the day, the scout came to report that Lin Guanqin and Hao

Zhengtong was defeated and was captured by Tang Jiusheng and taken to the city. At that time, Huo Yunsheng was happy and worried at the same time. He was happy that he had used the enemy's hands to get rid of his opponent. What he was worried about was that Tang Jiusheng would definitely take action against him.

When Huo Yunsheng was about to gather the defeated soldiers, the scouts came back with news that Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong had returned to Dazhai. They allegedly killed the guards guarding them in the city, stole their horses, escaped from the city, and fled back to Dazhai.

How could Huo Yunsheng believe such nonsense? Are Tang Jiusheng and the officials and soldiers in Jianzhou City pigs? How can they be allowed to escape from the city after such a big thing happened? As long as the city gate is not open, the suspension bridge is not open.

Let go, can they fly out? This kind of lie can only be deceived by those who don't have any brains!

However, since Tang Jiusheng let them back, there must be a reason. He couldn't afford it early, so Huo Yunsheng was very confused about Tang Jiusheng's motive. Did he want to drive a wedge between them? Wait until night when the spies in the city risked their lives to send a letter to Tang Jiusheng.

Him, sue

Tell him that Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengneng have surrendered to Tang Jiusheng. Huo Yunsheng was convinced at that time that these two people were sent back by Tang Jiusheng to deal with him. But Hu Qiuren said it was impossible. What did he mean?

Huo Yunsheng took a sip of tea, and his face became serious. He stood up from the desk, picked up the sword that Niu Mandi had given him on the table, and walked around the tent, thinking hard about countermeasures.

Five miles away is Hao Zhengtong's camp. At this time, the lights in the Chinese military tent are bright. Hao Zhengtong, Lin Guanqin, Luo Jinrong, He Chao and others are all there, each sitting behind the desk, arguing fiercely about the next move.

Lin Guanqin said loudly: "Seeing that we were caught in the trap, Huo Yunsheng kept standing still and refused to rescue us, which resulted in our defeat and capture. If General Hao and I hadn't used the trap to escape, we would have been finished by now, and our heads might have been hung in the city.

It’s over. So I think that in order to fight against foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation, and get rid of Huo Yunsheng first! By getting rid of him, we can also seize the more than 4,000 troops and horses under his account, so we can kill two birds with one stone!"

Hao Zhengtong's captain He Chao shook his head and said: "General Lin, I think this is inappropriate. Our three armies should join forces to deal with Tang Jiusheng. Our overall military strength exceeds that of Tang Jiusheng, but now Anshu has come with three thousand soldiers."

The horses were waiting in the deep ditch and high base outside the east gate, and five thousand soldiers and horses also came from Huzhou. They were squatting at Laoye Ridge and watching our backs. Although we had more troops in total, we did not have much advantage, and Huo Yunsheng had ten thousand men.

Zhi Zhiyong is also capable of soul-stealing magic, we need him, I don’t think we should engage in internal strife, it’s better to think long term!”

Luo Jinrong snorted and said carelessly: "Old He, this matter is not as simple as you think. When we came here, King Jiannan had already told us to pay attention to Huo Yunsheng. If he makes any move to surrender, we must

Let's kill him first. This man is arrogant and doesn't take us seriously at all. Especially today, our new defeat makes him despise us. If he attacks us at night and instead goes to Tang Jiusheng, we will not lose.

Big?"

Hao Zhengtong said suspiciously: "If that's the case, why did King Jiannan send him to lead a heavy army to surround Jianzhou City? The right way is to use people without suspicion, and don't use people who are suspicious!"

Lin Guanqin smiled bitterly and said: "King Jiannan trusted him before and asked him to lead troops to surround Jianzhou. He also handed over his brother-in-law Lin Beihe to him. He wanted Lin Beihe to make some military exploits and told him to lead Lin Beihe well. However, he didn't expect Huo Yunsheng.

But he killed Lin Beihe alive. Do you think King Jiannan could not guard against him? Besides, the troops stationed in the north and west of the city were originally commanded by him, but they were taken away by me. He hated me to the core.

How could he be willing to cooperate with me in this situation?"

Hao Zhengtong frowned and thought for a long time, then raised his head and asked: "Brother Lin, I met him first when I came here, and I was able to chat with him. How about I go find out what he has to say first? If he is willing to talk to us

Wouldn't it be better to cooperate? Even if we can't cooperate, it's better not to stumble on each other. After all, we are all our own people, don't you think?"

Luo Jinrong smiled and said, "General Hao, don't waste your energy. Wouldn't it be nice to have that energy in a woman's belly? He only has four thousand soldiers and horses. Our two families combined are close to twenty thousand, and

We still have an undercover agent on his side, and we can easily kill him, so why take the risk? If he is determined to surrender to Tang Jiusheng, and you go over to persuade him, he will just use his plan and capture you and sacrifice you to Tang Jiusheng, what should we do?

"

Hao Zhengtong was shocked when he heard what Luo Jinrong said.

Really, after thinking for a long time, he muttered: "How about I take some soldiers to see him? If he wants to harm us, it's not too late for us to take action!"

Lin Guanqin sneered: "Captain Luo and I went to his camp a few days ago. He avoided seeing us and wanted his men to shoot us with arrows. If we hadn't been prepared, we might have actually been hit by him."

Why did you take the risk? Why don't you go and gather all the soldiers and horses in the west and north of the city now? I guess there are at least six or seven thousand people, plus the nearly a thousand people brought back by Lieutenant Luo, the two of us will

Together we can give Tang Jiusheng a fight!"

Hao Zhengtong picked up the tea bowl and drank it all, and the soldiers next to him immediately poured him another large bowl of tea. Hao Zhengtong said with a headache: "According to what you said, it is not impossible for us to fight Tang Jiu Sheng, but what if he stabs him from behind?

If we strike with a sword, won't we be in big trouble? After all, there is still a team squatting on Laoye Ridge behind our butts!"

Luo Jinrong sneered and said: "That's why I said, let's take advantage first, get rid of the man named Huo, take over his troops, and then fight with Tang Jiusheng. After all, Tang Jiusheng has a team of more than 10,000 people."

, but he still has to guard against the riot of the five thousand soldiers and horses we have in the city, so he cannot put all his troops into the field. Now is the opportunity not to be missed, and the time will never come again, just in case the surnamed Huo really leads his troops to surrender to Tang Jiusheng

, we can just fetch water with a bamboo basket!”

He Chao, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "If it is true what you said, then it is better to strike first and get rid of Huo Yunsheng first, otherwise if he stabs us in the back, we will really not be able to bear it. Now there is no internal help in Jianzhou

If so, it is impossible to defeat them. Tang Jiu Sheng has more than 10,000 troops inside and outside the city. In addition, the moat is wide and the city walls are tall. There is no chance of us attacking by force!"

Seeing that He Chao had said this, Hao Zhengtong could only sigh and said cautiously: "It's not that you can't move him. If you want to move him, you have to move quickly. The night is long and there are many dreams, so we must not let him notice. If he notices,

If you are prepared, it will be difficult to deal with. After all, the four thousand troops under his command are all elite soldiers, and they are not easy to deal with!"

Lin Guanqin said resolutely: "Old Hao, I am going to the west and north of the city to mobilize troops to come and reinforce you. We can't delay it any longer. Let's do it overnight. Otherwise, if the news leaks out tomorrow, he will definitely be prepared. At that time, he will definitely be on guard.

It won’t be easy! Let’s use your army as the main force tonight and swallow up Huo Yunsheng’s team. I’ll mobilize the troops and we’ll split up!”

A few people hurriedly discussed some details, and Lin Guanqin got up and led more than ten soldiers out of the camp and went straight to the mobile camp outside the north gate of Jianzhou. Here, Hao Zhengtong, He Chao, Luo Jinrong and others were busy preparing.

They got up and prepared to attack Huo Yunsheng's stronghold at night. But they didn't know that Huo Yunsheng was also guarding against them. Both sides had their own agenda.

In Laoyeling Dazhai, Sun Jiangdongzheng and Zhonglai were drinking at night in the Juyi Hall. Suddenly they heard an eagle chirping outside the Juyi Hall. Zhonglai jumped up and said with a smile: "There is a letter from the boss!"

He hurriedly ran out, and after a while, Xiaoqing, the sparrowhawk, squatted on his shoulder. He walked in with a smile, unfolded the letter, and read it with Sun Jiangdong under the lamp.

After Zhonglai finished reading the letter, he burst out laughing, "Old Sun, tonight is the time to make a contribution! I don't think we should drink any more, so hurry up and gather the team, get ready and set off! Let's have a celebratory drink later!"
