"Mr. Yang, what do you think we should do?" In the face of this sudden incident, Chaman, who was not mentally prepared at all, felt very tricky and wanted to hear Yang Xingzhi's opinion.

"Although Youlan is a trick arranged by the deputy envoy in Qinglong City, as Yun Na becomes the person next to King Zhongwu, Yun Na's role is even greater for us."

After pondering for a while, Yang Xingzhi looked at Chaman with a serious expression, "Therefore, I think you should let Youlan evacuate, so that you can ensure that Yun Na can stay by King Zhongwu's side with peace of mind." ”

"I think so, too." Chaman nodded, and said to Yang Xingzhi in a deep voice, "You go and appease Yun Na, tell her that Youlan will evacuate immediately, let her act in peace, and don't show any flaws." ”

"Okay, I'll do it." Yang Xingzhi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then got up to say goodbye, in his opinion, this was the best choice.

When Yang Xingzhi was sent away, Chaman's eyes flashed fiercely, and a hideous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The camp in the south of the city.

"Lord Wang, Yang Xingzhi went to a grocery store, which must be a den of Northern Yuan spies." When Li Yuntian was frowning and looking at the latest battle report from Jiayuguan that Zhou Zheng sent him, Lin Xin walked into the room quickly and said in a deep voice.

It turned out that Lin Xin's subordinates had been staring at the private school, and quietly followed Yang Xingzhi to Chaman's grocery store, but Yang Xingzhi didn't find that he was being followed.

"Finally found the source!" Hearing this, Li Yuntian put down the battle report in his hand and smiled at Lin Xin, "What choice do you think they will make?" ”

"Lord Wang, my subordinates think that they should be able to keep Yun Na, Yun Na is more valuable to them by your side." Lin Xin thought about it and said in a coquettish voice, "In this way, Youlan will definitely leave Lord Lu, I don't know if Lord Lu will be hit after knowing the truth." ”

"A failed chess piece, will you still keep it?" Li Yuntian smiled, picked up the wine on the table next to him and poured a glass, and asked meaningfully while shaking the wine in the glass.

"Lord Wang, do you mean that they are going to abandon Youlan?" Lin Xin was stunned for a moment, a look of surprise appeared on her face, didn't they consider Yun Na's feelings?

"They must know that Youlan is now under close surveillance, and it will be difficult to escape from the sky, so it is better to let her die than this." Li Yuntian took a sip of the wine in the wine glass and said slowly, "Do you think it is more beneficial for them to let Yun Na stay with this king to get information, or is it more beneficial for her to kill this king?" ”

"Lord Wang, do you mean that they will force Yun Na to attack you?" Lin Xin was taken aback when she heard this, and asked with a stunned face, it is obvious that Li Yuntian is the military soul of the Ming army in Guanxi and even the Ming army, once something goes wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the morale of the army will have an immeasurable impact.

Moreover, if something happened to Li Yuntian, the Guanxi army in Qinglong City, including King Zhongshun and King Zhongyi, would definitely choose to defect to the Northern Yuan, and they would not believe that Ming officials other than Li Yuntian would guarantee their interests.

What is especially important is that Li Yuntian has any accidents, so it will be difficult to win the battle of Guanxi in the Ming Dynasty, in this case, in order to protect themselves, the generals of Guanxi will definitely launch a rebellion under the instigation of the Northern Yuan spies, as long as they seize the city gate guarded by the Xiaowu army, then Qinglong City will completely fall.

"Lord, what should we do?" After being reminded by Li Yuntian, Lin Xin immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and asked Li Yuntian for instructions in a deep voice.

"Now I'm afraid they want Youlan to die even more!" Li Yuntian drank all the wine in the wine glass, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Since that's the case, then we have to protect her." ”

"Protect her?" Lin Xin was slightly stunned, and then she understood, Li Yuntian did this for Lu Minen, if Lu Minen knew that her favorite concubine was a spy of the Northern Yuan, she would definitely be deeply shocked, and she would also become a laughing stock in the outside world.

"You arrange it, keep an eye on Youlan for the past two days, and the other party will definitely attack her." After putting down the wine glass in his hand, Li Yuntian commanded in a deep voice, "Be sure to protect Youlan's safety." ”

"My subordinates understand!" Lin Xin nodded when she heard this, and then left quickly, going to arrange the monitoring of Youlan.

After Lin Xin left, Li Yuntian picked up the battle report of Jiayuguan on the table and frowned and looked at it, in the past nearly two months, the enemy army in Jiayuguan continued to storm the "Zhongguan" of Jiayuguan regardless of the bad weather, which made the situation of "Zhongguan" quite bad, and it was expected to be broken after the year, and Zhou Zheng could only defend the east pass of Jiayuguan at that time.

In fact, instead of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan Dynasty "attacking" the "Zhongguan" of Jiayu Pass, it is better to drive the people of the Western Regions to die in vain, using their corpses and soil to pave a road to the city wall.

In the eyes of the generals of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan, this siege method was the best choice, which could not only break through the Jiayu Pass, but also consume the weapons of the Ming army defending the city.

For this reason, even the people of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate have been sent to Jiayuguan to participate in this brutal siege battle, and the Ming soldiers defending the city at Jiayuguan have experienced an unforgettable battle, and later have become numb and mechanically shoot those people close to the city wall.

Li Yuntian felt that the generals of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan Dynasty who were in charge of the siege must be crazy, and they would use such a cruel way to attack Jiayu Pass, which was simply to exterminate humanity, and he was not afraid of being scolded by future generations.

Moreover, judging from the current situation in Jiayuguan, the generals of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan Dynasty who were besieging the city had long thought of this tactic of using the people as cannon fodder to attack the city, otherwise it would be difficult to find so many people to participate in the "siege" in the vast and sparsely populated Guanxi, and they must have been prepared to drive the people over from other places.

If the "middle pass" of Jiayuguan is breached, then Zhou Zheng and the defenders of Jiayuguan will be forced into a desperate situation and have to defend the east pass of Jiayuguan, which is not good news for Li Yuntian.

If the enemy breaks through Jiayu Pass, then the war will spread to the northwest of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhou Zheng will be forced to retreat to Lanzhou City.

"Alas!" After a long time, Li Yuntian sighed and threw the battle report in his hand on the table, the battle in Jiayuguan was beyond his imagination, he didn't expect that the enemy army would frantically drive the people to "attack the city", which had never appeared in his more than ten years of military career.

Although he did not visit Jiayuguan in person, Li Yuntian could still imagine the tragic scene of Jiayuguan being full of corpses and rivers of blood, like hell on earth.

However, Li Yuntian does not have the energy to pay too much attention to the battle in Jiayuguan now, and it is imperative that he use Yun Na and Youlan to eliminate the intelligence network of the Northern Yuan in Qinglong City in one fell swoop, and find out the people in the Guanxi Army who secretly defected to the Northern Yuan army, and completely eliminate the unstable factors in Qinglong City.

Li Yuntian was sure that once his plan succeeded, then the traitors hidden in the Kwantong Army would definitely jump out and make waves.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Yuntian spent time with the soldiers in the barracks, which can be said to be a long-standing habit of his, and an important reason why he has a prestige in the barracks that is difficult for others to match.

"Lord Wang, Youlan and the maid left the mansion, and our people were secretly watching her." After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Li Yuntian played the Xiaoyao card with the soldiers in the barracks, and just when the game was in full swing, Lin Xin came over and whispered in his ear.

"Keep an eye on it." A subtle smile flashed at the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he commanded in a low voice, it seems that Youlan is more than lucky tonight, if it weren't for Lin Xin to send someone to follow, I'm afraid it would be difficult to escape.

It was already midnight when Li Yuntian left the barracks, and after returning to his residence, he did not rest, but waited for news from Youlan while reading a book in the study.

"Lord Wang, they really want to kill Youlan, fortunately, even if our people arrived to save her, but her maid died." In the early hours of the morning, just as Li Yuntian was yawning, Lin Xin walked in quickly.

"Is she alright?" Li Yuntian was shocked when he heard this, put down the book in his hand and asked.

"I was stabbed in the arm, but it didn't get in the way, it was already bandaged." Lin Xin shook her head, and then said with regret, "But the people who attacked Youlan saw that there was no way to escape, and they all committed suicide." ”

"That's fine, they can rest assured." Li Yuntian smiled disappreciatively, as long as Youlan is fine, other things don't matter.

"Lord Wang, what should we do next, do we want to inform Lord Lu?" Lin Xin knew what Li Yuntian meant, and asked with a deep sigh and a smile.

"I can't inform Lord Lu, you have people write a letter in the name of the Northern Yuan spies, telling Lord Lu that Youlan is in their hands, and let Lord Lu take the city defense map of Qinglong City early tomorrow morning to change, and if you dare to alarm outsiders, you will kill Youlan." Li Yuntian shook his head and said to Lin Xin with a smile, Youlan's identity cannot be exposed, so the only way to cover it up is to use this way.

"Lord Wang, will Lord Lu hand over the city defense map?" Hearing this, Lin Xin couldn't help but feel a little worried, and asked tentatively, as far as she knew, the relationship between Lu Minen and Lin Xin was very deep.

As the commander of the Qinglong Battalion in Guanxi of the Xiaowu Army, the city defense map of Qinglong City was kept by Lu Minen, which made Lin Xin have to defend it.

"There are two copies of the city defense map of Qinglong City, one is true and the other is fake, Lord Lu will definitely not do anything to endanger the Ming Dynasty." Li Yuntian smiled and shook his head, although Lu Minen doted on Youlan, this kind of treason could not be done no matter what.

"My subordinates will arrange it." Lin Xin saw that Li Yuntian looked confident, so she didn't say anything more, bowed to Li Yuntian and prepared to leave.

"Bring Youlan, this king wants to see her." Seeing this, Li Yuntian called out to Lin Xin, there were some things that he had to come forward to solve, he didn't want Lu Minen to be negatively affected, which was not conducive to the governance of the Xiaowu Army in Guanxi.

Lin Xin bowed to Li Yuntian when she heard this, turned around and left quickly, it seems that she is going to be busy again this Spring Festival.
