Just as Wen was about to leave, Murong Fu suddenly stopped him.
"Do you have any other instructions, Master?" Wen Zheng asked.
Murong Fu pondered for a moment, his lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.
Wen Zheng was stunned after hearing this, "Sir, this..."
"Do as I say and make no mistakes."
"yes!"
Not long after, the Blood Shadow Palace disciples were divided into several groups and fled in several directions.
After leaving the other courtyard, Murong Fu immediately rushed to Galdan Mansion and found Xiao Zhao.
Xiao Zhao looked at him strangely, "Sir, what's so urgent?"
Murong Fu did not explain, but took out the Qiankun Ling and said, "Take my letter and go to Hangu Pass in person, notify Huo Qingtong, and rush back to Xiangyang City at full speed."
Xiao Zhao's face changed slightly when he heard this, "But what happened to Xiangyang City?"
Murong Fu shook his head, "It's not clear yet. I'm just doing this to be prepared, just in case."
He detected a hint of conspiracy from Zhao Min. Thinking back carefully, the Zhao Min he met in Dadu this time was indeed a little different. He completely lost the fox-like cleverness and cunning of the past. At first, he thought it was
Because he was hit hard by the forced marriage, but now he found out that he was wrong. Zhao Min was still the same Zhao Min, and he would never change his temper for any reason.
The reason for such a big change can only be that the fox has become more cunning and has completely hidden its fox tail.
In addition, he remembered the poisonous man mentioned by Ouyang Feng. When Temujin made a desperate move and the whole army pressed forward, and it was already a decisive battle, would he give up such a trump card instead of using it? Even if it is a half-finished trump card, it is better than burying it in the mountains.
Bar?
The last one is Temujin's attitude. He was indifferent to the blatant fight between his two grandsons. His attitude towards him, Murong Fu, was even more inexplicable. He didn't even have any hatred at all. Added up one by one, Murong Fu
Even though he still couldn't figure out the specific conspiracy, he still felt that he had fallen into a trap, and its purpose was only one, and that was Xiangyang City.
Xiao Zhao heard that there was some uneasiness in his tone and comforted him in a soft voice, "Master, don't worry, Xiangyang City has many back-ups arranged by you, and Brother Deng in Shu can send troops to support at any time. Others have to use their thoughts.
It's not that easy. Sister Huo has just arrived at Hangu Pass. It's not easy to mobilize the army. If you mobilize her whole body, if you ask her to rush back all the way now, the army will be exhausted and its combat power will be greatly reduced. I'm afraid there won't be enough time."
After hearing these words, Murong Fu gradually calmed down, pulled Xiao Zhao off her disguise mask and kissed her gently, "Good Xiao Zhao, you are indeed the master's virtuous wife, and your analysis is clear and logical."
Xiao Zhao was immediately shy and happy, but he was neither arrogant nor impetuous, "How can the young master say so well? Xiao Zhao is just a little maid with little knowledge."
Murong Fu felt much calmer, "Then tell me, if someone attacks Xiangyang City now, how should I respond if I am thousands of miles away?"
Xiao Zhao frowned and thought for a moment and asked, "Who wants to attack Xiangyang City? How many troops are there?"
"Of course it's our prodigy, the Great Khan Temujin. As for the troop strength..." Murong Fu calculated in his mind, "If my estimate is good, it should be around 200,000."
Now, the only troops Temujin can mobilize are only the soldiers and horses who returned from Xiangyang City. At most, plus the remaining troops scattered around Xiangyang, the total number is only about 200,000.
Of course, if it were just these 200,000 soldiers and horses, Murong Fu would not be worried, because Xiangyang City still has tens of thousands of elite soldiers guarding it, and they can hold on until Deng Baichuan returns to help. What really worries him is Ouyang Feng's so-called poison
Man, from the description, you can tell that that thing is a weapon similar to a "biochemical bomb". Its lethality is immeasurable. Just think about how terrifying it is to think about the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were poisoned in Fancheng.
Murong Fu felt regretful in his heart. He should not have agreed to let Ouyang Feng go during the day. The old thief obviously had reservations and did not tell the whole story.
Xiao Zhao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, "Isn't this possible? The 200,000-strong army is so powerful. How is it possible that we haven't received any news at all?"
Murong Fu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This is what I'm worried about. Maybe the Xiangyang City side is still in the dark, or maybe someone intercepted our carrier pigeon halfway, so we couldn't receive the message."
This is not impossible. Based on Zhao Min's understanding of the Murong family, if he really wants to set a trap, he will definitely try to intercept all message channels.
Xiao Zhao thought for a moment, "The army of 200,000 is not a small number, and it is impossible to approach Xiangyang City silently. With the ability of Wu's military advisor, he will definitely be able to take precautions to block the enemy from the city. Brother Deng will not stand idly by."
"Since they have a way to intercept my messages, they must also have a way to intercept Brother Deng's messages. Besides, you don't know, that old thief Ouyang Feng has buried a bunch of poisonous people outside Xiangyang City..." After Murong Fu finished speaking, he met the little boy
Zhao's face was full of confusion, so he had to explain the poisonous people thing to her again.
Xiao Zhao turned a little pale after hearing this, and said in deep thought, "Sir, no matter what the situation is in Xiangyang City now, if you send Sister Huo back, the water from far away will not quench the thirst of the people nearby. It is better not to do anything without stopping, and let Sister Huo send her troops north to do something.
Even though Sister Huo doesn't have many troops, with the command department and the city gate lieutenant under our control as internal support, the chance of success is still very high."
Murong Fu was a little moved when he heard this, and then shook his head. There were still Kublai Khan's 100,000 cavalry outside the capital, and there was also a cavalry whose details were unknown for the time being. The most important thing was that although Xiao Zhao was carrying Galdan's identity,
You can't really command the army to help the Han army attack Dadu. Letting the Tianxuan army attack Dadu is extremely risky.
In fact, he still had an idea in his mind. It was better to rush into the palace and kill Temujin with a sword. But then he thought, if all these speculations were true, it would be meaningless to kill Temujin now. After all, he
He's not a temporary coach.
After frowning and thinking for a while, Murong Fu said, "No matter what, we have to find out the situation in Xiangyang City first, but we can't do nothing. You'd better go to Hangu Pass and ask Huo Qingtong to prepare a six-man mobile cavalry force.
Baili hurried back to Xiangyang City, and also sent a message to Li Qiushui, asking her to be ready to send troops to relieve the siege of Xiangyang at any time."
"Then the identity of Galdan..."
"Ignore all of this. If Xiangyang City is lost, even if I gain Dadu, it will be of no use."
"Okay, Xiao Zhao will do it right away."
"Be careful on the road."
After Xiao Zhao left, Murong Fu looked a little ugly and thought about going to Ruyang Prince's Mansion again. Now that he was thousands of miles away, he couldn't do anything even if Xiangyang City was in trouble. He could only go to Zhao Min to test the situation first.
Only by further clarification and confirmation of these speculations can we make a decision.?
