After the guards left, Zhao Di paced back and forth alone and thought hard for a long time before summoning his staff to discuss, as soon as his plan was said, it was immediately unanimously opposed, but unfortunately they couldn't think of a better countermeasure, and finally Zhao Zhen ignored the persuasion and resistance, and everyone had to obey the order.

The distraught Zhao Zhen couldn't wait impatiently, and instructed his subordinates: "Come on, prepare the horse to return home." ”

Liu Qi went around in circles in the courtyard for a whole hour, and he didn't even pay attention to Zhao Ci passing in front of him, he was worried about the situation in Jiangzhou, and he was going to return to Guling after saying goodbye to Zhao Zhen as soon as possible, and he was in a hurry to leave mainly because the power of the Yellow Turban was too wide, although he found out the traitor of the Yan family, but Liu Qi believed that the Yellow Turban thief would never have no other eyes and ears, and staying in Jiangzhou for a long time would inevitably greatly increase the chance of his exposure.

Even if the stalker has nothing to do with Zhang Jiao, Liu Qi knows that Zhang Jiao will pay attention to him sooner or later, if he learns about his relationship with Zhao Zhen and the Li family, who knows what amazing things that madman will do, Liu Qi is never willing to let Zhao Zhen's family suffer the slightest harm because of himself.

But now after learning the movement of the Yellow Turban thief army, Liu Qi also immediately felt the subtlety of the situation, this thief army is the elite of the survival of the fittest for many years, and it must not be underestimated, right now they are like a group of hungry wolves, just staring at the extremely empty Jiangzhou City not far away, ready to pounce at any time.

Fortunately, the intention of the thief army was discovered in time and prepared, after all, the thief army was only about 3,000, and it was still very difficult to capture such a fortified city as Jiangzhou.

Liu Qi did not feel relaxed at all, there is the strongest official army behind the thief army, and at this time the thief army should not be far from Jiangzhou, if you can't break through Jiangzhou City, there are only two options, one is to scatter in the mountains around Jiangzhou and fight guerrilla attacks with the official army, which is tantamount to a disaster for the people in Jiangzhou.

The second is to continue to flee northward, facing the Linjiang River, which is holding the choke point, the Li family, which is only stronger than the official army and not weaker, will obviously let the thief army break the head and bleed, and will also have to run into the nearby mountains, the terrain of the Linjiang River is more complicated, and it will be more difficult to clear and suppress.

Zhao Di is kind to himself, so he can't leave now, otherwise he won't be able to pass his conscience, and he just gave Zhao Ci a good impression, so how do people think of themselves when he leaves......

Cough, cough, where did he go, Liu Qi looked around with a weak heart, but fortunately, there was no one around.

How can we help Zhao Zhen completely annihilate this thief army at the lowest cost?

The renewal and development of China's military thinking has never stopped, but now after all, it is nearly 2,000 years earlier than its own era, just talking about the use and importance of intelligence, although as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Sun Tzu proposed to know oneself and know that the enemy will not be defeated in a hundred battles, which clearly shows the importance of military intelligence for war, but in fact not everyone has the mind and ability to become a military strategist.

Take the investigation of the Yan Yan family's traitors as an example, the Yan family's internal discord to the point of cannibalism is such an important information, and none of the officials in the Taishou Mansion have paid attention to it and used it.

On the contrary, the guards of the Taishou Mansion performed well, stalking, tracking, clichés, etc., each of which could be completed cleanly, indicating that the basic quality of the personnel was very good, but there was a lack of a leader who really valued and could use intelligence well.

In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the training of intelligence personnel, but it is obviously too late now, and at present, we can only imagine and analyze some useful things from the poor information to think of a good way to deal with this crisis.

When this bandit army invaded Yongning, the total number was tens of thousands, but most of them were ordinary people, and most of them were ordinary people, a large part of them were old and weak women and children who had no combat ability at all, and the real main force was only about three or four thousand, and there was a serious shortage of ordnance, food, and grass, so the combat strength was not strong, and the official army was repeatedly defeated in the face of the enemy.

The thief army abandoned the old and weak women and children, only the main force detoured to Jiangzhou, and there was no possibility of convergence, considering the battle damage in the battle in the past few months and the attrition in the march over the mountains and mountains, I believe that the main force of the thief army at this time is about 3,000, and the strength has been greatly weakened.

However, Jiangzhou itself has less than 1,000 officers and soldiers, and even with the Yan family's private army and temporary recruitment, the current strength is only less than 5,000, and it is not enough to defend the city on all sides, and it is completely pipe dream to go out of the city to besiege and annihilate the thief army.

It is impossible to wait long for the thief army's food and grass shortage, and it is very likely that it will be attacked tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and the main force of the official army may have just received the order to encircle the thief army, and there is no time to fight back against the thief army, and it is difficult for Li Mao and the reinforcements from the northern counties of Jiangzhou to arrive in just two days.

What should I do, do I watch the extremely weak thief army flow from under the nose into the deep mountains to regain a chance to breathe, and harm the surrounding people?

Zhao Ci peeked behind a few green bamboos at the gate of the courtyard and watched Liu Qi pacing back and forth impatiently in the courtyard, since he bravely saved his family, Zhao Ci didn't feel as resistant as before when he saw Liu Qi again, and even remembered the rudeness in his past behavior It didn't seem so annoying.

Today he seems to have changed his sex, when he passed in front of him, he was so serious, his eyes didn't even stop on himself, is it because there are so many sisters-in-law and sisters around him? But now that there is no one else in the courtyard, will he germinate in a solid state?

Mother and sister were still waiting for themselves, Zhao Ci had no choice but to pick up the small box with snacks and gently move the lotus step to Liu Qi's side, bend slightly to salute, call Uncle Shi softly, and then walk away as if he was running away.

When she walked out of the courtyard, she involuntarily turned her head to look back, and the uncle didn't seem to see her at all, just frowning tightly and staring at the pool in a daze.

What the hell was he thinking? Zhao Ci couldn't help but think of the night when this seemingly frivolous and unruly uncle designed for his father to get rid of the henchman Yan Jiajun, and he was also such a focused and contemplative look.

I really didn't pay attention to it before, he was quite handsome, and his gestures revealed a unique elegance, such a gentleman-like guy could not be chaotic in the face of danger, and calmly led only twenty or thirty people to repel ten times the murderous thief who was ten times his own!

Looking at Liu Qi, who was standing solemnly like a stone sculpture by the pool, remembering that night he stood high on the wall, stretched out his bow and arrows, raised his arms and shouted, and took the lead in rushing into the enemy formation like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

"Sister, sister, what are you doing? I want osmanthus crisp. A childish child's voice thought of it.

Zhao Ci woke up suddenly, looked down and saw that it was his sister Zhao Tian, Zhao Tian is Zhao Zhen's youngest daughter, Xiaozi Ning'er, just over ten years old this year, coquettishly yelling at her mother to eat osmanthus crisp, waiting for a long time and not seeing her sister take it, so she came out to look for it.

"Ah, Ning'er? Here you go, here you go, be quiet, let's go quickly, go back to the room and eat. Zhao Ci's heart was like a deer bumping into him, his face was hot, and he urged his sister to leave quickly.

Zhao Tian grabbed a piece of osmanthus crisp and stuffed it into his mouth, where could he bother to ask his sister why she was staring at the uncle who had just lived in the house, and was happily pulled away by her sister.

"Sister, sister, are you sick?" Zhao Tian found that today's sister was very wrong today, and asked with Zhao Ci's sleeve and shaking.

"Pity, pity?" Zhao Ci's mother, Li, also became worried when she saw her daughter's abnormality.

Zhao Ci casually played with her sister, but her heart had already flown to the courtyard, her mother and sister called her for a long time without responding, and when she came back to her senses, she was immediately shy, and replied with a red face: "Ah, mother, my daughter is fine, but I left something in the room, and my daughter retired first." ”

Li touched Zhao Ci's forehead, looked at her face carefully to make sure that she was not sick, and then relieved her and told her to go back to rest, but a red tide on her cheeks caught Li's attention.

Well, when the daughter grows up and reaches the age of marriage, if she has a man she likes, and his family is not bad, it is time to mention it to her husband.

After Zhao Ci left, Li picked up Zhao Tian and asked Fang Cai carefully, and was taken aback, could it be that his daughter's favorite person turned out to be that Liu Qi? This son's appearance is not to say, tall and handsome can speak well, no wonder he can please his daughter, judging from the clothes and conversation and the shrewdness and ability of those entourage, he is also a very talented person.

In terms of sacrificing one's life to quit the thief and trying to protect the family, the character is also reassuring, and the daughter's vision is really good.

But I'm afraid this marriage is difficult to conclude, don't look at him and his daughter's same age, but he is his daughter's uncle, this is a difference in seniority, the husband will definitely not agree to this matter, hey, is it difficult to make a match made in heaven?

In any case, I have to fulfill my daughter's wish!

A woman's top priority is to choose a good mate, Li is naturally extremely nervous about the marriage of his own daughter, and he can't think of any good ideas with anxious tears in his eyes, so he has to go to Zhao Zhen's wife Han.

Liu Qi pondered for a long time and still had no clue, irritably grabbed two stones, threw one into the pond fiercely, and with a splash of water, the frogs on the lotus leaves and the birds on the bluestone scattered in all directions, this scene seemed to indicate that the yellow turban thief would also escape.

There was a sudden sound behind him, and Liu Qi suddenly turned around and asked, "Who is it?!" ”

No one accompanied Zhao Tian, she had to wander around the world by herself, and when she walked to the pond, she suddenly wanted to catch a few fish to raise and play, but she didn't expect Liu Qi to be there, this uncle is amiable on weekdays, and he will tell stories to himself, which is very popular with Zhao Tian, so Zhao Tian is ready to make a little joke with him and sneak behind him to scare him.

Who knows who provoked him, suddenly got angry and threw stones, looking at his fierce appearance, Zhao Tian covered his mouth and didn't dare to cry, tears rolled in his eyes.

Zhao Zhen is dignified, and several ladies are also good-looking, so several children have inherited the excellent genes of their parents, Zhao Tian also gave birth to apricot eyes and peach cheeks, red lips and white teeth, skin like cream, a little beauty billet who is alive, and now a pair of beautiful big eyes are shining with tears, like a cute little Lori in the comics.

Liu Qi hurriedly threw away the stone in his hand, squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, and asked in the gentlest voice: "Ning'er, why did you come here to play alone?" ”

Zhao Tian cried loudly, and Liu Qi hurriedly stepped forward and said good words: "Ning'er, don't cry, what do you want, uncle bought you ......"

"I want to eat osmanthus crisp." Zhao Tian put forward conditions.
