Li Jue glanced at him, indifferent, and raised his chin.

"Guo Duo, Jia Xu is attached to the little emperor. These two came back to spread the word. I was upset for a while, so I killed them."

Guo Si was suspicious, but he didn't say anything. "It's good to kill."

"Jia Xu is willing to let everyone go, but he won't let us go." Li Jue walked down the steps, came to Guo Bang, and grinned. "It's normal, who made us two the culprits. He Jia Xu wanted to be a loyal minister, so he had to take our heads as a gift."

Guo Si's eyes shrunk. "The head is here, but it's not easy to take."

"Well, it's not easy to hold." Li Jue patted Guo Bang's shoulder. "There are too many people who want our heads. He Jia Xu wants to take it, but it's not that easy. Come, let's drink and discuss who to deal with first."

"I won't drink the wine. Looking at you like this, you should have drunk a lot. If you drink again, you will be drunk." Guo Si pushed Li Jue's hand away calmly. "Just tell me, who will you hit first?"

"Hit Yang Ding first." The corners of Li Jue's mouth twitched slightly. "Of course, it would be even better if you can persuade him to surrender. Guo Duo, you go. The reason why Yang Ding is attached to the little emperor is that he is afraid that I will kill him. You can speak up and give me a word. As long as he is willing to help us, the former The matter is wiped out. Grab the little emperor, you will be the general of the hussars, and he will be the general of the chariots."

"What about you?" Guo Si asked.

"I plan to marry my daughter to the little emperor to be the queen, and I will make a great general." Li Jue laughed loudly.He laughed for a while, and said again: "This time, I must marry the woman of King Hongnong, let's see how Jia Xu stops me."

Chapter 43: Jia Xu's Chain Plan

"Li Jue will definitely kill those two people." Jia Xu said flatly.

Liu Xie turned to look at Jia Xu, wondering what kind of medicine Jia Xu sold in the gourd.Knowing that Li Jue would kill those two rangers, why did he let them go back and let them speak?

Can this be brought to bear?

"Li Jue and Guo Si are in harmony with each other. If Li Jue kills people and silences them, Guo Si will not believe him, so he will become suspicious and take precautions." Jia Xu continued: "Li Jue knows it well, and he will definitely find a way to weaken Guo Si. The best way It is to borrow a knife to kill people, let Guo Si go to attack Yang Ding, and see if Guo Si will join forces with Yang Ding."

"Will Guo Si join forces with Yang Ding?" Yang Biao asked.

"Yes." Jia Xu said, "So, before Guo Si, we will send the food to Yang Ding's camp, and send the news of pardoning everyone except Li Jue to Yang Ding's ears. His mouth was transferred to Guo Si's ear."

Yang Biao murmured: "Do you really want to pardon everyone except Li Jue? Although Guo Si's crime is not as good as Li Jue's, he is still the chief culprit."

"Guo Si can't survive." Jia Xu said unhurriedly: "Li Jue will watch him closely. He will definitely die. The only difference is whether we kill him or Li Jue kills him. Taiwei, who do you think will kill him?" Is he better?"

The corner of Yang Biao's mouth twitched, he glanced at Jia Xu, but said nothing.

Needless to say?Of course it would be better for Li Jue to kill him.

Liu Xie didn't say anything.He understood Jia Xu's meaning, and this trick was very vicious.

No matter how hard Li Jue struggled, he couldn't escape Jia Xu's palm.

As expected of Jia Xu.

"Has General Ning Ji prepared the food?" Liu Xie asked.

"It's ready, but you can't send it all at once." Jia Xu said, "Send it for five days first, and send the second batch after a few days."

"Why?" Yang Biao frowned. "Once Guo Si has completed the siege, it will not be easy to send food."

"It is precisely because Yang Ding sees that it is not easy to deliver food, so that he knows His Majesty's sincerity." Jia Xu drank his saliva, and said: "In case Yang Ding has a betrayal heart, there are only five days of food left, so he dare not act rashly."

"What if it can't be sent in?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't send it in, Your Majesty will do your best. If you send it in, it will kill two birds with one stone." Jia Xu turned to look at Yang Biao. "Lieutenant, can the Northern Army complete this mission?"

Yang Biao weighed things up a bit. "If there is only Guo Bang, it should not be a big problem. If Li Jue comes together, it may be a little difficult."

Jia Xu nodded. "Your Majesty wants to use force to pacify the world, and the Northern and Southern Army is the backbone. If you can take advantage of this opportunity to make meritorious service, you will surely let people face up to the dignity of the court again and dare not covet lightly. If the Northern and Southern Army are unable to fight, Your Majesty will have to rely on others. Back then It is inevitable that Emperor Guangwu would be called the Bronze Horse Emperor."

He stroked his beard under his chin, and said lightly: "If His Majesty is called Emperor Baibo, what dignity does the court have?"

Yang Biao suddenly realized and nodded again and again. "The servant's words are justified." After thinking for a while, he emphasized his tone again. "rational."

The corner of Liu Xie's mouth twitched slightly. "Since the Taiwei thinks it is reasonable, then the task of delivering food for the second time will be handed over to the Taiwei. The Taiwei will urge the Weiwei and the fifth school to strengthen their military training and be ready for battle at any time. How about it?"

Yang Biao was taken aback, looked at Liu Xie who was smiling, and then at Jia Xu who was expressionless, and coughed dryly.

"Your Majesty, I...do my best."

Jia Xu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I'm going to inform General Ning Ji to deliver food."

Liu Xie nodded in agreement, and Jia Xu got up and went.

Watching Jia Xu leave, Yang Biao said meaningfully: "Your Majesty has good eyesight. This Jia Xu is really a master at reading people's hearts. He is unpredictable. I missed him before, but I didn't see his ability."

Liu Xie comforted: "Everyone has their own strengths, so there is no need to insist on the same. Mr. Yang, this opportunity is rare, so don't miss it easily."

Yang Biao nodded solemnly. "Your Majesty will send a letter to Weiwei and the fifth school lieutenant, ordering them to go all out and live up to His Majesty's expectations."

-

Yang Xiu was near the water tower and applied for the first task of delivering food.

Xu Huang won the opportunity to lead the army with his extraordinary force and wit. Together with Guo Wu, he led a hundred Habayashi Lang and a thousand soldiers under Duan Yan's command, escorted dozens of carts of grain, and rushed to Yang Ding's camp in Huashan. The newly built camp in Yukou.

Yang Ding was very happy to get the food sent by the emperor, but when he saw the amount of food, his face immediately became gloomy.

"Servant, that's all? These things won't last for a few days."

Yang Xiu took his time. "The general didn't know something. The night before yesterday, His Majesty received news that Li Jue and Guo Si were coming. He was worried that the general's food would be insufficient and the army's morale would be unstable, so he urgently dispatched some food and ordered me to send it for emergency."

Yang Ding's complexion improved a bit, but he was still worried. "When will the rest be delivered?"

"Your Majesty is trying to find ways to raise funds. Once ready, send them here immediately." Yang Xiu pulled Yang Ding aside and said softly: "Your Majesty said that Li Jue and Guo Si came too fast. He didn't expect that, so he can only send these first." He said that the previous agreement with the general remains unchanged. If there is no new food delivered before the food is exhausted, the general can surrender at any time, and His Majesty will never blame you."

Yang Ding's complexion changed slightly, he hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile and said: "The minister misunderstood, your majesty treats me like this, how dare I have half a heart of disobedience. It's just that the food is really not enough, although your majesty puts your heart into it, once Li Jue and Guo Si To besiege the camp, even if His Majesty has the heart, I'm afraid he won't be able to send it in. So, what I mean is, it's best to grab it before..."

Yang Xiu raised his hand and interrupted Yang Ding. "The general's meaning, I will definitely bring it. I can understand the general's worry, and so does your majesty. Therefore, he asked him to tell the general that this battle will only punish Li Jue, the chief villain, and all others will be pardoned. If the general Even if you have to surrender and be forced to be an enemy of His Majesty, it will not be a capital offense. Of course, it would be even better if the general can remember His Majesty's affection."

"This is nature, this is nature." Yang Ding was determined.Now that the emperor has spoken to this point, he has nothing to worry about.If it doesn't work, just surrender. "Your Majesty... Really only killed Li Jue? If you say the chief villain, so is Guo Si."

"I don't know the specific situation. This is the result of discussions between His Majesty and Jia Shizhong."

"Jia Shizhong?"

"Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, he is currently serving as an official servant, and he is His Majesty's confidant. This time, he will assist His Majesty in planning the battle against Li Jue. It is also Jia Shizhong's request to punish Li Jue, the chief villain. The news has been sent by the captured Everyone must know that the ranger brought it back to the camp."

Yang Ding's heart skipped a beat, his scalp went numb.

Jia Xu is loyal to the emperor, and also advises the emperor?

Isn't Li Jue dead?

"Yang Shilang, is this... is this true?" Yang Ding stammered.

"Do you not believe me, or Your Majesty?" Yang Xiu was a little unhappy.

"No, no, why don't I trust the Minister and Your Majesty?" Yang Ding waved his hands again and again, patted his chest and said: "With Your Majesty's wisdom, coupled with Jia Jun's wisdom, this battle will surely win. Please tell Your Majesty, please tell Your Majesty. I, Yang Ding, have breath and will never fail His Majesty's love."

Chapter 44 Opportunity

After the grain was delivered, Yang decided to invite Yang Xiu to a banquet to express his gratitude, but Yang Xiu declined.

"The war is imminent, every grain of food should be cherished, I dare not waste it. To tell the truth from the general, His Majesty now eats one meal a day just to save some rations so that the soldiers can have enough to eat."

"Really?" Yang Ding was skeptical, but there was a shocked expression on his face.

To be honest, he didn't trust Yang Xiu very much.

This kind of scholar with a noble background is the most untrustworthy, full of benevolence and morality, full of bad water.The people of Liangzhou suffered a lot from these hypocrites, were beaten to the bone, swallowed alive by them, and finally charged with treason.

Instead of trusting him, it is better to trust the emperor.

The Son of Heaven was young, and he spoke straightforwardly, and even had a temper with Liangzhou people.

Jia Xu's allegiance to him is probably because of this.

Thinking of Jia Xu, Yang Ding felt numb all over.

He secretly rejoiced that he heard this sentence, otherwise he would not know how he would die in the future.

The Son of Heaven is not to be feared, but Jia Xu...cannot be offended.

"The general doesn't believe it, it's really normal." Yang Xiu sighed, "I thought His Majesty was talking about it at the beginning, but I never knew he would take it seriously. Speaking of it, it was Li Jue who bullied His Majesty too hard. Listen to what my father said At the beginning, His Majesty asked Li Jue for some food to reward the officials, but Li Jue gave five stinky ox bones. General, is this true?"

Yang Ding nodded vigorously.

He has also heard of this, so it should not be false.

"That's no wonder. Even ordinary people can't bear such humiliation, let alone Your Majesty. As long as you can cut off Li Jue's head, let alone just eating one meal a day, even starving for a few days is worth it."

Yang Ding thought it was reasonable, and echoed repeatedly.

In this way, it is reasonable for the emperor to accept Jia Xu's suggestion and decide that Li Jue is the head of the evil, and refuses to pardon him.

While checking Yang Ding's camp, Yang Xiu chatted with Yang Ding to get closer, and at the same time passed the relevant information quietly.Yang Ding felt uneasy, he was not keeping his mind, he listened obediently, and obeyed.

Yang Xiu was in charge of delivering the message, while Xu Huang and Guo Wu were in charge of checking for omissions and making up for it.

Xu Huang has been a county official for many years and has served in Yang Feng's army for more than two years. He has rich military experience.Before coming, Jia Xu told the drawn map one by one, explaining the key points.Looking at Yang Ding's camp at this moment, he can see clearly at a glance, pointing out some flaws that may be exploited by the opponent, and Yang Xiu reminds Yang Ding to pay attention to repairing them.

Yang Ding was very surprised. "Who is this……"

"Xu Huang, Xu Gongming." Yang Xiu introduced: "I was under the tent of General Fengyi before. General Fengyi heard that His Majesty selected elites to serve as close servants, so he recommended him. He was the one who captured Xiliang Rangers last time. .”

Yang Ding remembered, he had a little impression of Xu Huang, but he hadn't said anything.

Xu Huang doesn't talk much, and he is out of tune with Yang Feng's generals, who are mainly Baibo thieves.

Yang Ding deliberately chatted with Xu Huang for a few words.When it comes to personnel affairs, Xu Huang doesn't talk much.When it comes to military affairs, Xu Huang is very talkative, explaining to Yang Ding what he just observed.

The more Yang Ding listened, the more surprised he became, and for some inexplicable gloat.

Yang Feng actually gave such a talent to the emperor, he is really stupid.

A moth thief is a moth thief, with courage but no strategy, it is difficult to achieve great things.

Yang Ding asked Guo Wu again, and learned that Guo Wu was originally Habayashi Lang, and now he is also by the emperor's side, so he naturally wanted to win over him.He selected two good horses from the army and gave them to Xu Huang and Guo Wu respectively. He also picked two more horses and asked Yang Xiu to bring them to the emperor to show his heart.

-

Yang Biao hurried back to the imperial camp and went straight to the camp of the guard Sun Rui.

Shi Sun Rui stood on the platform of the Chinese army, commanding his guards to practice formations.

After receiving His Majesty's order to act as the Taiwei, he called the ministers in charge of military affairs and the five school lieutenants to discuss the battle plan and arranged the positions of the battalions.As the main force of guarding the imperial camp, the guards under Wei Wei can be said to be the last line of defense of the imperial camp, so Sun Ruihua is the most thoughtful and dare not slack off in the slightest.

When Yang Biao stepped onto the stage of the general of the Chinese army, he had just finished a round of performances, and gathered the lieutenants and Sima of each battalion on the stage to analyze the pros and cons of the rehearsal just now.He talked too much, his voice was already hoarse, his lips were dry and cracked, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Seeing Yang Biao coming up, his head was covered with sweat, he picked up the kettle beside him and wanted to pour Yang Biao a glass of water, but found that the kettle was already empty, and shouted angrily: "Water, water, why hasn't the water been brought yet?" ?”

"Wei Wei, it's cooking, it'll be ready soon." A boy responded in an anxious voice.

"Look, I'm in a mess here." Shi Sun Rui smiled wryly.

Yang Biao sighed. "Jun Rong, you have worked hard."

"What are you talking about?" Shi Sunrui said with a smile: "It's only natural to eat the king's salary and share the worries for the king. Why bother?" It's hard work if you are forced by a minister. As a minister, I can't protect your majesty, so what face do I have to stand in the world. If you can kill Li Jue and Guo Si, and avenge your majesty, even if you are smashed to pieces, it will be worth it of."

Yang Biao looked at Shi Sun Rui, feeling even more bitter in his heart.

"Jun Rong, Your Majesty doesn't want you to be crushed to pieces. Your Majesty wants you to be able to take on important responsibilities and be a real captain."

Shi Sun Rui turned his head to look at Yang Biao, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. "Is this His Majesty's wish, or the King's wish?"

"It was originally my wish, but now it is also His Majesty's wish."

"Oh?"

Sun Rui thought for a while, waved his hands to signal his subordinates to leave, and stood side by side with Yang Biao on the railing. "What did His Majesty tell you?"

Yang Biao didn't hide anything, and told the whole process of the dispute between the emperor and him.

He rushed back to the imperial camp today to discuss this matter with Shi Sun Rui.

Jia Xu suggested that the Northern and Southern Army be responsible for transporting the second batch of grain and grass to Yang Ding in order to revive the court's momentum. Naturally, there is no problem with the reasoning, but it is quite difficult to implement.

Of course, such a dangerous matter cannot be fought by the emperor himself, and Sun Rui, who acts as the Taiwei, became the best candidate.

This is a challenge, but also an opportunity.

If Shi Sun Rui can complete the task, not only will the court have face, but the Taiwei will regain military power, and Sangong will have the confidence to turn the false into the real.

"Junrong... is it possible?"

Shi Sun Rui looked at Yang Biao for a while, then pointed to the North and South Army who were practicing and the soldiers of the Fifth Battalion farther away.

"What do you think?"

Yang Biao smacked his lips, feeling bitter.
