Two hours later, it was night. The night is as deep as ink, and the city of Jinyang is fierce, and the atmosphere is very solemn.

In the continuous mansions in the east of Jinyang City, a light is like a bean, and it is uncertain. A few 'gloomy' faces were reflected in the light.

"What is going to happen to my brother, please decide as soon as possible!" A long-bearded man said anxiously.

Another yellow-faced scribe also persuaded: "Yes, brother, how can you do great things if you are so hesitant? ”

The one who was called his brother was a middle-aged man in a green robe with a square face. The green-robed man groaned and said, "The two virtuous brothers, if the old man is indecisive, it is really a matter of great importance. The Taiyuan Wang clan has deep roots and leafy leaves, Wang Xiandi, your branch and the Huns, it is just a cunning rabbit three holes, even if there is a loss, it will not hinder the overall situation. My Zhongdu Chi clan is a small family, and there is disharmony, but the end of the whole clan is overturned......"

A third person 'interjected' and said, "Clan Master Chi, at this time, do you still want to stay out of the matter?" ”

The man in the green robe couldn't help but be stunned: "Tian Sheng, I have discussed with your Uncle Wang Shi and Uncle Gao Shi, and the younger generation is talking nonsense." If the old man intends to stay out of the matter, he will not come to your Tianfu tonight. ”

The young man named Tian Sheng walked out of the 'shadow' shadow of the room with his hands behind his back and said coldly: "This is an extraordinary time, and my uncle will not blame me for being rude. If the uncle is determined to stay out of the matter, hehe, I'm afraid that I won't be able to leave the cold house tonight. ”

"You ......" Huo Ran, the man in the green robe, stood up, just opened his mouth, and sat down again. He is not afraid of the threat of this impatient young man, the Chi and Tian clans have been 'friendly' for several generations, and this friendship is not something that the 'Mao' head boy can shake with a few shouts: "Alas, although my Chi clan has a bad career, it is a loyal and filial heirloom of the Chinese clan after all, and those Huns are 'sexual' fierce, vulgar and unliterate, and have no faith at all. It's okay to be forced to deal with them according to the times, if you join hands with them, I'm afraid that you will seek skin with the tiger. ”

The name of the Qingpao is Chi Zao, and he is a native of Taiyuan Middle School, although his family is not a well-known high 'door', but it is also a prosperous wealthy family surname. After Yue Shigong went out of the town and merged with the state, he migrated to Jinyang to live in Jinyang, and the Chi family also came to Jinyang.

But what others don't know is that the Zhongdu Chi clan and the Yangqutian clan, the Jinyang Wang clan, and the Jingling Gao clan have always had dealings with the Xiongnu, and even accepted the local official positions granted by the Xiongnu Han State. It's just that they acted extremely secretively, and they hid all the generals and bureaucrats under the command of Yue Shigong. At this moment, Chi Zao and the other three family heads: the young man Tian Sheng, the long-bearded Han Wang Yang, and the yellow-faced scribe Gao Huaichun were discussing the secret envoys of the Xiongnu to enter the city, so that they could join forces to attack Jinyang. It's just that Chi was shaken at a critical moment, which made the other three very impatient.

Seeing that Chi Zao was just hesitating, Tian Sheng sneered. "If my uncle really didn't 'want' to join hands with the Xiongnu, why did he have to accept the official position of the Han State before? It's too late to look ahead and look at the future! ”

Chi Zao's words were stagnant, and he was about to refute, Wang Min said in a deep voice: "Why do we have to quarrel with words, please take a look at this thing first!" As he spoke, he took something out of his sleeve and handed it over.

This is a plain silk, which has been neatly folded into small pieces repeatedly, and after being opened, it is about a foot square. Chi Zao looked at it calmly, but saw that the silk was dripping with ink and a lot of words were written. Just look at the calligraphy, you will feel that the rhyme is vivid and smooth, the strokes between the sharp 'dew', the attitude is flying, it is no less than the work of any famous artist that Chi Zao has seen in his life.

Chi Zao opened the silk completely and said softly: "'Adultery' is fierce and rebellious, it has been used in ancient times; Now the lonely king is in charge of the field, raising the power of the festival, leading the tiger to ride a thousand groups, and driving the big county for a long time. Today, the middle of the capital Lingchi, Yangqu Lingtian, Jinyang Lingwang, Jingling Changgao, etc., sincerely stay, cooperate with Jiamou, solve the worries of loneliness, and the lonely heart is extremely comforting. He will not hesitate to reward, and he will be entrusted with the responsibility of shepherdship and guarding, and he will be rewarded with honors. Whoever is afraid of 'forcing' things and submits to his fate, he asks nothing. ”

"Is this ......" Chi Zao's eyes flashed greedily and asked in surprise.

Wang Min said: "This is a wax pill letter brought by the Xiongnu messenger, and it is written by His Royal Highness Liu He, the king of Zuoxian, which shows sincerity. ”

Seeing that Chi Zao's face was uncertain, Gao Huai said: "His Royal Highness Liu He is both martial and martial, not only using soldiers like gods, but also 'refined' through the history of the scriptures, and good at Danqing calligraphy, which is also a leader among the Han families. What's more, His Royal Highness Liu He has a magnificent bearing and no doubt about employing people, which is enough to prove it. Brother, isn't this kind of character better than the incompetent kings of the Jin family? ”

He pressed his hand on the case, and leaned forward: "Brother, Da Dan Yu Liu Yuan proclaimed himself the King of Han, and called on Shao Xiu Han to call on the Han family. Zhongdu Chi is a noble descendant of the Yellow Emperor and a descendant of Yin Shang, and the family has lasted for thousands of years, and it is a high 'door'. But because of the evil of Honshu Dazhongzheng, he succumbed to the village community for decades. Doesn't my brother want to seize this opportunity to leap over the dragon's 'gate'? ”

"If your uncle refuses to help...... Hey...... Needless to say, the current situation is needless to say, tens of thousands of Xiongnu soldiers are eyeing the outside of the city, and tomorrow the city will be broken, and the 'jade' stones will be burned. I'm afraid that there will be no such thing as Zhongdu Chi in the future......" Tian Sheng added with a cold face, and was pulled back by Wang Min's arm.

"That's it! That's it! Chi Zao Muran sat for a long time, and finally sighed. He straightened up, gritted his teeth, and said, "How are you going to act?" ”

Wang Min, Gao Huai, and Tian Sheng glanced at each other and sneered secretly.

Chi Zao, the old fox, pretended to be loyal and upright, who did he deceive? Is he really willing to die with the city? For large families, how to ensure the continuation of the family is the most important thing. He said for a long time, just for the Huns' promise to the future of the Chi family.

It is necessary to know that among the four wealthy families, the Chi family is the most powerful, so the silk book of Liu He, the king of Zuoxian, puts the Chi family at the head of the four surnamed wealthy families. Since Liu He made a personal promise with the respect of King Zuoxian, this old guy couldn't hold back his emotions and wanted to do it himself.

The Chi family's subordinates are above the other three in terms of number and 'elite', and Chi Zao himself is a deeply hidden figure who does not 'revea'; to do great things, he must do his best!

Wang Min took out a map of Jinyang and spread it on the desk, and lowered his voice: "Patriarch Chi, come and see, the four of us will fully mobilize the 'elite' and dare to fight, and the total number will not be less than four hundred. With these 400 people, and whether they have calculated or not, they are at least seventy percent sure of seizing a city 'gate'. As long as we take a city 'gate' when the Hun army attacks the city tomorrow, and let the Hun army enter the city, it will be a great achievement......"

Chi Zao glanced at Wang Min and interrupted his words: "Brother Xian, although Jinyang's troops are weak at this moment, there are still five or six hundred defenders at each city 'gate'. Are you so sure we'll take the gates? This hard bone is not easy to gnaw! What's more, the Xiongnu army is ten times larger than the Jin army, and tomorrow's large-scale siege of the city will be like destroying the withering and decaying...... Although it is a great achievement to seize the 'door', it is not a miracle! ”

The other three asked in surprise, "What is a miracle?" ”

Chi Zao's eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to the center of Jinyang City on the map: "There is no need to wait for the action of the Huns, we will raise troops tonight and capture the Thorn Mansion!" ”

"The Jinyang army has the vast majority of the soldiers who can fight, and most of them have been arranged along the city wall, and there are almost no reserve troops in the city, so it is empty. Therefore, the four of us can take the Thorn History Mansion in one fell swoop, and capture Ling Husheng and other officials. Without the command of the center, the Jin army at the 'gates' of each city will inevitably be defeated without a fight; if God favors us, maybe we can rush to Jinyang before the Huns attack the city...... This is enough to exchange for the wealth of the family! ”
