Zhao Jia and all the generals were anxiously waiting outside Hu Yanping's door, until the sky in the east was slightly bright, then they saw the door opened, and then several medical officers came out tiredly, and the generals also surrounded them at once, and before they could ask, they saw that the old medical officer led by him took the initiative to speak: "The general's situation is very bad, although the arrow in the chest did not hurt the heart, but it was only half a point, which also made the general's injury very serious, and he is still in a coma, but there should be no problem with his life." ”

Hearing that Hu Yanping's life was saved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but then General Cui and the others showed distressed expressions, because they are now trapped in the city of Liaoyang Mansion, and the army is facing a crisis of food shortage, Hu Yanping is the main general in the army, and his prestige is high enough, so the army is stable, but now Hu Yanping suddenly fell, even if they can hide Hu Yanping's injury, but if he does not show up for a long time, I am afraid it will also arouse suspicion, in case people know that Hu Yanping is injured and unconscious, I'm afraid it will make the soldiers and horses in the city very confused, and if the Jurchens attack the city with all their might, then they will be really dangerous.

Zhao Jia also thought of the serious consequences of Hu Yanping's coma at this time, and couldn't help frowning at the moment, but this kind of thing didn't need him to think about it at all, the most headache should be General Cui, so after learning that Hu Yanping's life was not in danger, Zhao Jia's personal guards were all driven away, originally they were going to be punished, after all, their ineffective guards caused Hu Yanping to be injured, but these guards belonged to Hu Yanping's people, so even if they wanted to be punished, they had to wait for Hu Yanping to wake up and punish him personally. Now I have to get rid of the matter, and the work of the guards is taken over by someone else.

After learning that Hu Yanping's life was not in danger, Zhao Jia's hanging heart finally let go. But then he thought about the previous question, that is, why did those assassins know their location in advance, so they ambushed them nearby, so that the repeated assassination was successful?

Zhao Jia was puzzled by the above question, and he even wanted to ask experienced veterans like General Cui for advice, but these veterans were very angry with his guards at that time. This made Zhao Jia dare not speak nonsense, so as not to be bored, and those generals are now worried about Hu Yanping's injury. No one has the energy to pay attention to such a small thing at all.

"It seems that I can only find the answer to this question by myself!" Zhao Jia finally suddenly said to himself, he is a person who likes to get to the bottom of things, and he must find a way to solve problems when he encounters them, which also makes him want to be indomitable. Therefore, we must also understand this problem.

It just happened that the matter of protecting Hu Yanping was taken over by someone else. Zhao Jia also had nothing to do, so he came to the place where they were attacked yesterday again, and even went to the house where the Jurchen assassins were hidden, trying to find some clues from some clues, but he spent a morning researching, but he couldn't find anything useful.

It wasn't until after the afternoon that Zhao Jia returned to his residence, and their guards were relatively concentrated. Because now that they have canceled their mission to protect Hu Yanping, these guards are idle and have nothing to do. There are many people sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, and some people take out the chess they carry with them and start playing chess, the entertainment in the army is relatively small, chess can cultivate the thinking ability of the soldiers, and can kill time, so it is very popular in the army, many soldiers carry a pair of small chess, so Zhao Jia is not surprised by this situation.

However, just as Zhao Jia was walking through the courtyard and preparing to go back to his room to rest, he suddenly heard a person playing chess next to him proudly say to his opponent: "You should hurry up, now you are left with this one-legged horse, no matter which direction you jump, it is impossible to escape death, so you still obediently admit defeat!" ”

Originally, this was just a very ordinary sentence when playing chess, but hearing Zhao Jia's ears made him suddenly stunned, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, as if he had grasped some key clues, but if he thought about it seriously, he seemed to have not grasped anything, which made Zhao Jia feel very uncomfortable, and finally simply strode to the two people playing chess, and then carefully observed the chess game, hoping to find some inspiration from it.

I saw that the situation on the chessboard is very simple and clear, Hongzi has killed most of the chess pieces, only one horse can still jump, the paranoid Go people are very clever, and even set up a killing move for the opponent's horse to jump position, no matter which way the horse jumps, it is a dead end, it can be said that Hongzi is bound to lose.

Zhao Jia looked at this simple chess game, but his eyes were getting brighter and brighter, especially when he saw the predicament of the red horse, he suddenly woke up, and ran away excitedly, and soon came to the tunnel exit where the Jurchens entered the city last night, and then he took a serious look at the terrain, and finally affirmed his conjecture more.

At that moment, Zhao Jia rushed to the guards' residence again, and then shouted: "Get up for me all and go with me to arrest people!" ”

"Arrest? Who to catch? Hearing Zhao Jia's words, many of the guards were a little confused, if it weren't for the fact that most of them knew that Zhao Jia's identity was not ordinary, I am afraid that no one would pay attention to him at all.

"Naturally, it's those Jurchen assassins who assassinated the general yesterday!" Zhao Jia shouted excitedly again at this time.

"Aren't the Assassins all dead? General Choi also chopped the corpses of those assassins into pieces, which we have all seen. At this time, someone in the guards asked loudly again, and even many people looked at Zhao Jia with strange eyes, because they wondered if Zhao Jia's brain was broken?

"Those few are just some of the assassins, there are other assassins lurking in the city, and now the city is full of our people, they can't move around at will, so they should still stay in the lurking place!" Zhao Jia stared at a pair of bright big eyes and said excitedly again.

Hearing that the assassin was not caught, the guards below did not speak again, it is estimated that many people are speculating about how Zhao Jia knows this, and some people think that Zhao Jia's words are not credible, when the general was assassinated yesterday, someone immediately went to the place where the arrow was shot, and the assassin could not have time to escape, how could there be an assassin who was caught?

Seeing that these guards were motionless, Zhao Jia was also a little anxious at this time, and shouted again at the moment: "Brothers, the assassination of General Huyan is also a shame for our personal guards, and now the army is laughing at us for failing to protect the safety of the general, and now some of the assassins who assassinated the general are still at large, don't you want to catch them to avenge the general?" ”

As soon as Zhao Jia's words fell, someone finally responded: "Okay, I'll take a look with you, I hope you don't lie to me!" ”

With the first one, there was the second, and soon most of the guards stood up and agreed to go with Zhao Jia to catch the remaining assassins, and finally gathered more than a thousand people, so Zhao Jia led these people to immediately rush to the battlefield last night, and then under the command of Zhao Jia, the more than 1,000 people were divided into several teams, and then went to the corresponding location to search and arrest people according to his instructions. As a result, after a short time, someone discovered the Jurchen assassins lurking in the city, although the number of the other party was not large, but all of them were not afraid of death, and after fierce resistance and saw that there was no hope of escape, they all chose to commit suicide, almost the same as the assassin caught last night.

Zhao Jia also personally led a group of men and horses to search an area where the assassins might be hidden, and found traces of the assassins in the stupa of a temple, when they were about to go to the pagoda to search, but they were attacked by the assassins, fortunately they had already prepared, so they were not succeeded by the other party, but there were also two people injured because of this, and then they hugged with shields, but unfortunately they also saw several bodies that had committed suicide.

has been busy for nearly an afternoon, Zhao Jia finally cleaned up these hidden assassins, after statistics, plus the assassins last night, there are a total of fifty of these people, distributed in ten ambush sites, and these ambush sites are distributed around the battlefield last night, and all of them are higher terrain, it is easier to observe the battlefield situation.

Zhao Jia finally fully understood the Jurchens' strategy at this time, to put it simply, the Jurchens actually set a triple trap, first using an obvious fire attack strategy to confuse them, and then from the pre-dug tunnel, if it can succeed, it is the best, if it can't succeed, it will definitely attract the main general of the Song army to the battlefield, and then the main general will definitely find a place to observe the situation on the battlefield, so the Jurchens have ambushed the assassins in the most suitable places around the battlefield to observe the battle situation in advance, so that No matter which direction they rushed to the battlefield from, they could be assassinated by the Jurchens.

Of course, there are also many difficulties in this, such as the position control of the battlefield, which is relatively easy, as long as the Jurchens stubbornly guard the exit of the tunnel, they can attract the Song army. In addition, there is another one is that the Song army commander chooses to observe the location of the battlefield, after all, the battlefield is so big, and there are many places suitable for observing the battlefield situation, but the Jurchen general is very smart, he knows that the Song army commander Hu Yanping is a rare general, even if it is unintentional, he will choose a place that is most suitable for observing the battle situation, so he only needs to ambush the assassins around the most suitable location for observing the battle situation, and finally let him succeed.

Zhao Jia returned to Hu Yanping's residence with the corpses of all the assassins, intending to explain this matter to General Cui and the others, which could be regarded as their meritorious service, but they had just come to the outside of the hall of the meeting, but they suddenly heard a quarrel inside!
