Although Chaman used Agu and others to cover Tahar's identity, Tahar has not been comfortable these days and has huge psychological pressure.

After all, Li Yuntian, who is sitting in Qinglong City, is not easy to provoke, and the Xiaowu army in the city is also difficult to deal with, and the victory or defeat of the Kwantan army is unpredictable if it wants to fight against it, and if he can't successfully open the city gate and let the army from the outer city of the city come in, then it will be a very tragic ending to greet him:

When Agu and the others left Qinglong City, Li Yuntian once said that if someone defected to the Northern Yuan in private, then he would punish him for collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the result would be a full house of beheading.

This may be what people usually say that the greater the danger, the richer the reward, if the Northern Yuan captures the Qinglong City with the help of Tahar, then Tahar is the first hero, so that the Taishi of Tuhuan is impressed with him, and he will definitely be able to soar at that time.

As time passed, the time for the Northern Yuan spies to raise an incident in Qinglong City was getting closer and closer, which made Tahar's mood become more and more irritable, and he really couldn't predict whether this move in the city would be successful.

"Great Khan, there are rumors on the street today that King Zhongwu has been assassinated by the secret agents of the Northern Yuan, and this matter is now making a lot of noise in the city." On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, when Takhar was drinking tea and chatting with his family in the mansion, the butler hurriedly walked in and said in a deep voice.

"What?" Tahar was not prepared at all, and was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately stood there with the teacup in his hand, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Where did this rumor come from?" Then, Tahar, who came back to his senses, put down his teacup with a snap, stared at the butler and asked urgently, this news is too shocking.

"I don't know, there are rumors everywhere in the market that King Zhongwu has been assassinated, and the people on the street have become a mess." The housekeeper shook his head, Li Yuntian was not only the guardian of the people of Qinglong City, but also the spiritual pillar of the people of Qinglong City, if something happened to him, Qinglong City would be in danger.

"Great Khan, the little one has already checked, King Zhongwu should have participated in the celebration in the city yesterday, but he was replaced by Marquis An Yong." Then, the butler added in a deep voice, "When the little one came, he went to the city gate and found that the number of soldiers at the city gate seemed to have more than doubled!" ”

"They actually killed King Zhongwu!" Takhar was stunned, and couldn't help muttering to himself, it was obvious that the news on the street spread so quickly was the result of Chaman and other Northern Yuan spies.

At this moment, Tahar's mood was extremely complicated, he was shocked and at the same time had an irrepressible excitement, and there was an inexplicable loss, believing that Li Yuntian should die on the battlefield instead of being assassinated despicably.

Tahar knew that Li Yuntian's side was heavily guarded, and outsiders couldn't get close at all, so he was very curious about how the Northern Yuan spy killed Li Yuntian.

The next moment, Takhar got up and left in a hurry, and went to find Timur, the king of loyalty, and now that such a great thing had happened in the city, it was obvious that the people of the Seven Guards of Guanxi were going to talk to Timur about it.

When Takhar arrived at Timur's mansion, there were already some high-ranking generals of the Kwantan Army, who were gathered in groups in the living room to whisper the rumors of Li Yuntian's assassination.

Timur was not at home, and after learning the rumors on the street, he had rushed to the camp in the south of the city, wanting to know if something had happened to Li Yuntian.

While waiting for Timur to return, all the high-ranking generals of the Kansai Seven Guards rushed over, and everyone was shocked by the rumors on the street.

For the people of the Guanxi Qiwei, Li Yuntian had a more important significance, like the Mongols and Jurchens, except for Li Yuntian, the Guanxi Qiwei did not trust those officials of the Ming court at all.

Since the Guanxi Qiwei was attached to the Ming Dynasty, only Li Yuntian has been carefully managing the Guanxi for decades, bringing prosperity and prosperity to the Guanxi, and at the same time ensuring the interests of the local nobles in the Guanxi, which is also an important reason why these Guanxi generals in Qinglong City chose the Ming Dynasty.

If you use an analogy, Li Yuntian is the link between Kansai and the Ming Dynasty, and those local nobles who have him in the Guanxi have a sense of security, otherwise they will have to worry about being abandoned by the Ming Dynasty and becoming cannon fodder against the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan.

After all, the officials of the Ming Dynasty did not have the broad-mindedness of Li Yuntian, and what was deeply rooted in their minds was the concept that "if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different", and they would definitely use the Kwantan army to consume the military strength of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan.

What is particularly important is that Li Yuntian has an invincible and invincible brilliant record, and now the Ming Dynasty is at a disadvantage in Kansai, if there is no Li Yuntian, there will definitely be no hope of victory, and the Kansai Army has not yet reached the point of advancing and retreating with the Ming Dynasty, and people will definitely change their minds at that time.

"The Loyal King has arrived!" Just as the Kansai nobles in the living room were talking to each other, a voice came from the door, and Timur walked in from the door with a solemn expression.

"Lord, was King Zhongwu assassinated?" Seeing this, everyone at the scene got up and surrounded them, looking at Timur with concern.

"King Zhongmu was indeed assassinated, but he was only injured, and there is no fear for his life at present." Timur looked up at the Guanxi nobles gathered around, and after squeezing out a smile on the corner of his mouth, he opened his mouth to comfort, but his eyes flickered a little.

When Timur saw Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian was lying upright on the bed, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and his eyes were closed as if he was dead.

Lin Xin told Timur that Li Yuntian's arm was cut by a Beiyuan spy with a highly poisonous short knife, which resulted in poisoning and remained unconscious, and the doctors in the city were helpless, and that spy was Kui Yuan Yunna of the first Xiaoyao Card Contest in Qinglong City.

In fact, when he saw Li Yuntian at first sight, Timur immediately realized that Li Yuntian had been poisoned, except that Li Yuntian's complexion was consistent with the signs of poisoning, he did not see obvious wounds on Li Yuntian's body, and it was obvious that only poison could make Li Yuntian unconscious.

This made Timur's mood fall to the bottom all of a sudden, if Li Yuntian could not detoxify, Qinglong City would be finished, and the morale of the army would be weakened.

Obviously, Li Yuntian's bad situation cannot be disclosed to the senior generals of the Kwantan Army, otherwise the Kwantan Army will definitely be in chaos, and there will definitely be many people who want to take refuge in the Northern Yuan, which is a scene that Timur does not want to see.

Therefore, Timur concealed Li Yuntian's true situation at Lin Xin's request, hoping that Li Yuntian could withstand this catastrophe.

Knowing that Li Yuntian was not dead, the senior generals of the Kansai Army at the scene immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Li Yuntian was still alive, then the morale of the army and the people in the city would not be chaotic, and they would still have a chance to win the battle of Kansai.

"Lord Wang, what should we do next?" Takhar had been closely observing Timur's face, although Timur was pretending to be relaxed, his solemn expression still could not escape his eyes, and he immediately realized that Li Yuntian's current situation should be very bad, so he asked quietly, This is also a matter of concern to the senior generals of the Kwantan Army.

"Stabilize the morale of the army, and do not listen to the rumors in the market, so as not to mess up the position, and then the enemy will be given an opportunity." Timur glanced around at the Guanxi generals who were looking at him, and after a deep groan, he said loudly, "When King Zhongwu recovers from his illness, he will definitely win the battle of Guanxi!" ”

"The subordinate obeys!" The generals of the Kwantai Army couldn't help but glance at each other when they heard this, and then they all bowed to Timur Timur, and then hurriedly left to arrange relevant matters.

"What do you say, what is the condition of King Chungmu's injuries?" When Tahar and several senior generals of the Kwantan Army left the mansion of Timur, and when they parted in front of the mansion, a senior general couldn't help but ask with concern, Li Yuntian's life and death played a crucial role in the situation in Qinglong City.

"It is estimated that the situation is not optimistic." Another senior general shook his head when he heard this, sighed and said, if Li Yuntian's injury was not in the way, Timur's mood would not be so heavy.

"I hope that King Zhongwu can save the day." Hearing this, a high-ranking general standing beside Tahar shook his head, and after bowing his hand to Tahar and the others, he mounted his horse and left, and the others also left in a low mood.

Seeing that the mood of the generals was a little depressed, a subtle smile appeared on Tahar's face, and the news of Li Yuntian's assassination had obviously had a great impact on the generals in the Kansai region, thus laying a good foundation for winning over the Kansai army.

Originally, Tahar was going to spend this time of the Spring Festival with his family, but since there was such a major incident in Qinglong City, Tahar naturally wanted to go back to the barracks to stabilize the morale of the army, which was also the choice of the generals of the Kansai Army and even the generals of the Ming Army, and the news of Li Yuntian's assassination must have spread in the barracks.

The spies of the Northern Yuan Dynasty would never let go of such an opportunity to disturb the morale of the Qinglong City army, and when Tahar came to the military camp of the Shazhou Wei army, the military camp was already in chaos, and they were talking about Li Yuntian's assassination.

Under the deliberate dissemination of the Northern Yuan spies, the news that Li Yuntian had been killed had already spread throughout the two camps in the south and north of Qinglong City.

The strength of Shazhou Wei is second only to Hamiwei in the Seven Guards of Kansai, with a strength of 15,000 people, although it is pitifully small compared to the Ming Dynasty, but this is already a very powerful military force in Kansai.

Therefore, Qinglong's 30,000 Xiaowu army does not seem to be much, but it is already a huge military deterrent in Kansai, which makes Tahar sharp on his back, and then wants to get out of this situation.

"Great Khan, has King Zhongwu been assassinated?" When Tahar came to the barracks, he was immediately surrounded by the generals of Shazhouwei, and everyone looked at Tahar with concern, wanting to know the specific news.

"King Zhongwu was indeed assassinated, although King Zhongyi said that his injuries were fine, but as far as Ben Khan knows, I am afraid that King Zhongwu's injuries are true!" Tahar glanced at the generals around him, and said in a deep voice quietly, "I'm afraid it's more than lucky!" ”

"Great Khan, can Qinglong City still be held?" The generals of Shazhou Wei immediately looked at each other when they heard this, and a middle-aged general couldn't help but ask worriedly, not only the people of Qinglong City, but also the soldiers in the city regarded Li Yuntian as a spiritual pillar.

"If you can't hold it, you have to defend it, Da Ming, Da Yuan, and Xi Chagatai are not easy to deal with!" Takhar's brows furrowed, and he said with a blank face, "From now on, the whole army is on alert, waiting for Ben Khan's order at any time. ”

"Yes!" Hearing this, the generals of Shazhou Wei bowed to Tahar and said, and then quickly returned to the camp to make arrangements.

Not only Shazhou Wei, with the spread of the news of Li Yuntian's assassination, the troops in the camps of Qinglong City all entered a state of combat readiness, which was a subconscious self-protection behavior of the generals of Qinglong City, which made the atmosphere of Qinglong City dull and depressing, and the air was filled with the smell of gunsmoke.
