In Shazhou City, Zhang Yang was still on his way back to the city.

On the street of Beishi, several figures flashed through the empty street and disappeared into a shop called "Bancheng Medicine Store". After the dark shadows entered the medicine store, a head poked out of the door of the medicine store and peeked into the surrounding street.

After making sure that no one was following, the owner of the head quickly retracted and returned to the medicine shop.

Before standing still in the medicine shop, the owner of the head immediately performed a unique etiquette to a strong man who was at least eight feet tall among the several black-clothed people who entered the medicine shop.

"General Xiao, you let the little bottom be arranged, the little bottom has been properly arranged. But I don't know why the general took danger and came into this sandbar city himself. The owner of the head saluted and asked the tall man in black.

When the man in black heard this, he said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, I have already made it clear to my brother that the woman who appeared next to Zhang Madman a few days ago is none other than Yelu Dashi's daughter, the eldest princess of the Western Liao Kingdom. She also came to this city with a plan, so she had to come here herself. ”

"Oh, no wonder, no wonder the Khitans in the city seem to have moved a little bit these days. Last night, a group of Khitans secretly bought a large amount of lamp oil from Li Asan's shop next door. After listening to General Xiao's words, the owner of the head said this thoughtfully.

Then he looked at General Xiao and asked, "General, what do you think that Yelupu wants to do quickly?" Do you want to help her father plot against this sandbank city and hinder your great cause of raising an army to restore the country? ”

A shimmering gaze appeared from the gap in the black veil, and General Xiao shook his head: "No. Analyze from what I have. That Pu Suwan should be trying to plot against Zhang Heizi. It was not meant to take the city. She should be plotting against Zhang Heizi's soldiers and horses. ”

After a slight pause in his words, General Xiao took off his black veil and continued after revealing a resolute face: "What Yelu Dashi lacks now is not territory, the territory of those tribes in the Western Regions is so big, he doesn't need to come to the Jade Gate to seize the city to provoke Liu Xing's thieves. What he lacks now is soldiers and soldiers who can fight tough battles, so he must come to rebel against Zhang Heizi and take the elite soldiers under his command. ”

"However, that Zhang Heizi hadn't rebelled against Liu Thief once before, and after being defeated, Liu Thief remembered his old skills and old feelings. Not only did he not behead him, but he was given a chance to make meritorious service again. Healed the scar, can that Zhang Heizi forget the pain so quickly and go against Liu Thief? The owner of the shop, the owner of the head, asked.

General Xiao He, the former commander of the Xia Prefecture of the Western Xia Kingdom, didn't hear his rhetorical question, and said with a strange smile: "That Zhang Heizi was a madman in front of the formation, and he was a fool with a short string when he left the battle formation. I've seen it before, it's a beautiful girl who has captivated the country and the city. Zhang Heizi has never been close to a woman, so he naturally fell in love at first sight and lost his heart again. Therefore, it is absolutely possible for him to forget the pain because of the beauty in his arms. ”

"Then what do you want to do, general, and what do you need to do?"

After the shopkeeper asked again, he thought for a moment and said quickly: "The warriors of my party in the city. Now 3,000 people have been secretly assembled. It's not a lot of people, but it's as you say. As soon as Zhang Heizi leaves the city, we can successfully seize the sandbar and help the general raise the banner of recovering the country. ”

Shaking his head again, Xiao He said, "No, don't wait for us to rush to capture the city." If my prediction is correct, as long as Zhang Heizi raises troops, the enemy of Guazhou will be able to arrive here in less than two days to quell the rebellion. You must know that Liu Qi personally led troops to be stationed in Guazhou, if he comes, don't say that you and I are only seven or eight thousand people combined, even if seventy or eighty thousand people are definitely not Liu Duhu's opponent. Therefore, the time and place for the army to be raised are not yet right, and we must not act rashly. ”

"Since it's not to take the city, why did you come here in person, general?" The shopkeeper's gaze became a little suspicious, and he asked again.

Xiao He didn't answer him immediately, but walked to the table next to him and picked up the teapot.

After raising his head and pouring half a pot of herbal tea, he smiled coldly and treacherously: "Liu Du has been in Guazhou for a day, and I can't come when I wait." The story of Emperor Guangwu's conquest of Western Shu in the past, you must have heard it I don't know how many times, but how many times did the Twenty-Eight Tail Fire Tiger fail to complete the great cause of destroying Shu? ”

"You, you mean ......"

The shopkeeper was slightly startled, and then he also laughed sinisterly with Xiao Hebu: "Xiao Di understands, but the general still needs to temporarily transfer the Thirteen Heroes of the Dog Demon to Xiao Di, and I promise to let that Liu Qi go to Cen Peng Ting Zhonghui and sue for grievances together." ”

At the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was in the middle of the Han Dynasty, there were 28 stars in the sky to help each other. The Tailed Fire Tiger that Xiao Hebu and the shop owner said was Cen Peng, one of the twenty-eight stars and a cadre under Liu Xiu.

Na Cen Peng had been defending for several months, blocking the repeated attacks of Liu Xiu and his brother Liu Yanqiang. Later, if the grain and grass in the city were not eaten up, he would probably become the biggest obstacle at the beginning of the Guangwu brothers' army.

And since Wancheng ran out of food and Cen Peng returned to Liu Xiu. He went to the city alone, persuaded Zhu Kun to surrender, followed the emperor's southern expedition, pacified Jingxiang, and went to attack Qin Feng. Persuade to return to Jiaozhi, pacify Jingzhou, march from Junxi, and extinguish the hustle and bustle. Along the way, it can be said that the military achievements are outstanding and the achievements are for a while.

But in the end, when he led his troops to fight Xishu, Gongsun Shu, the emperor of Xishu at that time, saw that he was about to be defeated, but he made a desperate move. So what's the trick? It is to follow the method of Dan, the prince of Yan State, to assassinate Cen Peng, who has outstanding military achievements and outstanding wisdom and bravery.

The result? Jing Ke failed to assassinate the King of Qin that year, but the assassins condemned by Gongsun Shu succeeded, and Cen Peng, a famous general, was assassinated to death in the Han army that conquered Western Shu.

As soon as Cen Peng died and the three armies were in chaos, Gongsun Shu had a chance to breathe in Xishu, and only then did he resist the repeated attacks of the Eastern Han Dynasty's royal division, and persisted for a long time before he was defeated and killed......

This was originally a historical story in the change of the Central Plains Dynasty, but now it is not thought of by Xiao He. As soon as he said it, the owner of the shop immediately understood how he was going to deal with Liu Qi.

So, about an hour later. When Xiao He didn't leave the medicine shop, the thirteen black dogs that had been lurking in the nearby alley quickly ran into the medicine shop. As soon as he entered the pharmacy, he immediately transformed into a human form and stood neatly in front of the pharmacy owner.

After glancing at the thirteen canine demon spirit masters, the owner of the pharmacy did not immediately discuss with them how to assassinate Liu Qi, but asked them to rest first.

After the thirteen vicious dogs left, the shopkeeper looked at the roof with his half-tilted back, and laughed coldly: "Liu Qi, Liu Duhu, Cen Peng is very lonely, waiting for you to accompany him to sue for injustice." I'm going to see if you can survive this this time, hehehe...... (To be continued.) )
