"Planting explosives? Good, then it will be very lively. "Gao Gao clapped his hands happily. He quickly sent a few clever subordinates to spread rumors and prepare gunpowder.
Lin Wanrong nodded and suddenly asked, "Big Brother Gao, how are the defenses outside the city?!"
"Don't worry." Gao Qiu smiled, "Official Xu is personally guarding outside the city. According to your orders, the formation has already been broken up. We are just waiting for the big fish to take the bait."
"Good!" Official Lin chuckled and patted Old Gao's shoulder, "Big Brother Gao, I will leave the glorious mission of blowing up the Dragon Palace to you. Take care of yourself."
Leave to me? Gao Qiu looked at him in confusion, "Brother Lin, you mean you are not staying here? Aiya, that won't do. If that Censor Chen wants to stop me, I can't refute him. It is better for you to stay here. "
Gao Qiu's worry was not without reason. Although Official Lin did not treat Censor Chen seriously, Chen Biqing was not someone anyone could bully. Even if Gao Qiu did not fear him, he was far from being Censor Chen's opponent when it came to talking.
Lin Wanrong thought for a while and then called Xian 'er to bring a brush and paper. He wrote down a few big words and handed it to Gao Qiu.
Old Gao took it and looked. Official Lin's calligraphy was crooked but the words were very eye-catching, "The matters of the wang fu will be handled by Gao Qiu. If anyone dares to obstruct or disobey my orders, I will arrest them first and interrogate them later. Lin San will be here today! "
"Big Brother Gao, don't worry. If anyone dares to obstruct you, just do as I say. I will bear all the consequences. Damn, I don't believe there is anyone more unreasonable than me in this world. "Official Lin said confidently.
Gao Qiu thought about it and agreed. It was better to offend the King of Hell than Lin San. Which one of those who went against Brother Lin would have a good ending? He relaxed and stuffed the written order into his robes.
When they left the fu. Seeing that Lin Wanrong was deep in thought and did not say where they were going, Qin Xian 'er stopped the sedan and asked in a low voice, "Husband, where are we going now?"
Lin Wanrong carefully pondered for a while and said with a smile, "Xian 'er, guess what that Imperial Uncle Cheng of yours is doing now?"
Xian 'er rolled her eyes at him. "How would I know? If you ask me, meeting you is like meeting his nemesis. What else can he do when his nest has been destroyed by you? The only way is to leave the city. "
"Smart, as expected of my wife." Lin Wanrong gave a thumbs up. "Then let me ask you again. There are two paths to choose from. One is to go north to seek refuge with the Hu people, the other is to go south to Fujian and collude with the Wu people. If you were Cheng Wang, which one would you choose? "
Qin Xian 'er furrowed her brows and pondered. Just as Lin Wanrong had said. If Cheng Wang didn't have troops in his hands, he would be alone. If he fled, he could only rely on the power of one side to survive. The Hu and the Wu people were undoubtedly his last choices in his despair.
Miss Qin thought for a long time before opening, "In my view, he will choose the Hu people!"
"Oh? Why?! "Lin Wanrong asked with great interest.
"There are only two reasons. One, the Hu people have strong troops and strong fighting ability. They have also been eyeing our China for a long time. Right now, the two sides are facing off at the border and war is about to break out at any moment. If Cheng Wang fled to the Hu camp, he can borrow the Hu's troops to go south to the Central Plains. This is the fastest way to realize his dream. The Wu people have a small territory and their fighting ability is a hundred times weaker than the Hu people. He has no reason to choose the weak over the strong. "
Miss Qin's mind was clear and her analysis was organized. Lin Wanrong smiled and nodded, "En, that's reasonable. Then the second reason?"
"The second reason is that he exposed his intentions." Miss Qin said, "Husband, you still remember. Xu Wei mentioned it to you. The matter of hundreds of death warriors suddenly attacking the barracks in the southern part of the city? If Cheng Wang really wanted to defect to the Wu people, with his experience and cunning, he definitely wouldn't expose his intentions. If we take the sudden attack of these hundreds of death warriors as a test of the defenses in the southern part of the city, then isn't that telling us that he is heading south? This doesn't match his personality. Due to this, I gathered my courage to guess that this is a diversion tactic. His target should be the Hu people in the north. The defenses of the city are most likely in the northern part of the city. "
"North? Then you and Xu Wei have the same view? "Lin daren muttered to himself. He seemed to be asking her and also seemed to be asking himself.
Right now, Xu Wei was personally guarding the northern part of the city to cut off Cheng Wang's path north. It seemed that his thoughts were similar to Qin Xian 'er's.
Lin Wanrong thought for a bit and then slowly shook his head, "Xian 'er, if it's like you guessed — — he will defect to whichever faction is stronger. Sending a hundred people to their deaths just to create a diversion — — then Cheng Wang's thoughts are too simple. "
"Then where do you think he's going?!" Hearing her husband say that she was simple-minded, Qin Xianer pouted and angrily pinched his arm a few times.
"My thoughts are the exact opposite of yours." Lin daren snickered and a light flashed through his eyes, "If my guess isn't wrong, your royal uncle is probably fleeing towards the southeast!"
"Southeast?" Miss Qin stilled and pulled on his arm. She pouted her bright red lips, "Husband, you can't trick me, you have to give me a reason first! If you can't convince me, humph, I'll twist you ten times. "
"Twist my butt? Aiya, such a heavy punishment — — I'm really looking forward to it. " Lin daren snickered darkly, causing Qin Xian 'er to feel a burst of embarrassment and anger. The two teased for a while in the sedan before Lin Wanrong stopped. He said, "If you want to talk about the reason, it's very simple. Xian 'er, you only see that the Hu are strong and the Wu are weak. But in reality, who is strong and who is weak is not important to Cheng Wang. No matter where he is, he is just a foreign official. Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the Hu or the Wu took over the country of China, they wouldn't give it to Cheng Wang. Don't you think so? "
It seemed to be reasonable. Qin Xian 'er nodded slightly.
"So, for Cheng Wang, if he escapes, the first thing he considers is not how to return to China, but how to establish himself in the other's camp. This is the foundation. Just as you said, the Hu are confident that they have a strong army and a strong country. They have never put China in their eyes. A defeated Cheng Wang, for them, isn't very useful. At most, it would be the icing on the cake. But for the Wu, the meaning is very different. Dong Ying has always coveted China's vast territory and abundant resources. But because their country is weak, they have never succeeded. Now that China and the Hu are about to clash, it is a golden opportunity for the Dong Ying. They took the risk to send troops to Korea because they have designs on China. Cheng Wang's surrender has greatly raised the morale of their troops and the people. It is like sending charcoal in the snow and it suits their appetites. "
"Also, the Hu are very different from us in terms of appearance. It makes it hard for people to feel a sense of belonging. And the Wu look very similar to us. Psychologically, it gives people the illusion that it is easier to control the Wu than the Hu. On one side, they are useless to others and have no sense of belonging. On the other side, they are treated as an honored guest and can even control others — — Xian 'er, if it was you, what would you do? "
Hearing his words, Miss Qin felt that it was reasonable. But she cared about her face and couldn't admit that she was simple-minded. She snorted, "If he really wanted to go to the Wu in the southeast corner, then sending people to attack the south of the city, isn't that purposefully exposing the target? How do you explain that? "
"Do I still need to explain?!" Lin Wanrong spread his hands and smiled, "That old fox, he purposefully did it for smart people to see. The military books say it well, fake is real, real is fake. Creating a diversion and beating someone at their own game is separated by a piece of paper. It can be pierced with a pinky. "
Lin da ren's mouth was like a lotus flower. It was like the worm in Cheng Wang's stomach. The more he said it, the more it seemed real. Miss Qin started to doubt her own thinking. But she finally had her own judgment, how could she give it up so easily? She pulled on Lin Wanrong's sleeve and said angrily, "Husband, you're just guessing. You're just guessing. I don't believe that you can guess correctly every time! "
"Then let's make a bet." Lin Wanrong smiled and winked, "In any case, Old Xu is in the north of the city, so we can go to the south gate — — ah, a bet with my little sweetheart, let me think, what should we bet — —"
Qin Xian 'er giggled. Looking at him charmingly, Lin Official's heart warmed. He smiled coquettishly, "How about this, simple. Xian 'er, if I win, I'll kiss you ten times, okay?"
"En." Miss Qin lowered her head with a red face, "Then what if I win?!"
"You win? That's basically impossible — — "Seeing that Miss Qin was about to hit him, he quickly changed his tone," — — If you win, I'll suffer a bit and let you kiss me a hundred times. Ai, I'm not a casual person! "
"You're asking for a beating!" Miss Qin's face turned red. She pinched his arm and said angrily, "You wish — — whether you win or lose, it's all because you're taking advantage of me!"
"A thousand years of injustice!" Lin Official raised his fists high, indignant. "When a man kisses a woman, the man is scolded for taking advantage! When a woman kisses a man, the man is still scolded — — is there any justice, is there any human rights?! "
Qin Xian 'er's expression was gentle. She slowly snuggled into his embrace, blushing as she said in a small voice, "You only know how to make trouble — — husband, whether you win or lose, Xian' er will be happy!"
"Little darling, I'm also very happy." Lin Official laughed flirtatiously. His large hands unknowingly caressed her soft and fragrant breasts.
Xian 'er moaned, her body as hot as charcoal. She softly said, "Husband, if I lose, Xian' er will give birth to a child for you — —"
Lin Official's heart softened when he heard this. He lightly pressed on her white and sparkling breasts. The soft and smooth feeling made his heart tremble, "Little darling, what if I lose — —"
"Then we'll give birth to ten — —"
Then am I going to lose or win? Even Lin Official was troubled!
When the small sedan left the southern gate of the city, Miss Qin was already as limp as a pile of mud, powerlessly leaning into his embrace. Her half-naked breasts faintly revealed a pair of tall and plump jade breasts. The two bright red spots on her chest swayed with the movement of the sedan, causing one's heart to tremble. Only then did Miss Qin understand why the Talented Lady Luo surrendered so easily. If she married such a lecher husband, no one would be able to become a Saint Lady. Finally, Lin Official received Qing Xuan's warning and only dared to take small advantages. He was still far from reaching the realm of wielding a spear and leaping a horse. The husband and wife made love in the sedan, giving off an indescribably charming and gentle feeling.
After traveling another dozen or so miles to the south, they saw groups of three to five soldiers, sparsely searching back and forth. Their formation was really messy. Lin Wanrong knew that this was a trap that Old Xu purposely set up to lure the enemy, but he didn't mind it.
Continuing south, there was a temporarily built camp that was right next to the official road. A few miles ahead was a lush and green forest. The forest was deep and dense, and even during the day, it was still dark and gloomy, making it impossible to see the situation inside.
There were only a few thousand people in the camp, and Xu Zhen was already waiting here. Looking at Lin Wanrong's thigh that was covered in bandages, Xu Zhen was both happy and worried, "General Lin, why did you personally come?!"
"How could I miss out on catching a big fish?" Lin Wanrong smiled faintly, continuing, "Little Xu, where are the people in your camp? Why are there only a few left? "
Xu Zhen looked around and snickered, "Lord Xu has transferred some of our men away, saying that he wants to give that person some space, so that he can display his skills freely. Hehe — there are about five to six thousand people scattered around here. Don't look down on them, they are all the elites of our old provisions army — General Lin, where do you think that person will escape to? "
"It doesn't matter which direction he escapes, you just need to guard it well." Lin Wanrong nodded, glancing at the forest in the distance. He suddenly laughed and said, "You little brat, you are quite sly. Speak, how many people are lying in ambush in front?!"
Xu Zhen was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, "General, you, how do you know?"
Lin Wanrong shook his head and laughed, "The sun hasn't set yet, but the forest is already so quiet — if you aren't hiding people, could it be that wild ghosts have entered?"
Xu Zhen shook his head and smiled bitterly, originally he thought that he was proud of himself, but he didn't expect that General Lin would see through him with one look.
Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, the sky was getting darker, but there was still no movement from Gao Qiu in the city. Qin Xian 'er was a little anxious, and just as she was about to talk to her husband, there was suddenly a loud boom coming from the city. Lin Wanrong laughed, "Old Gao, that kid, finally exploded for me."
Before his voice died away, there were several explosions in succession, much more violent than the previous one. Lin Wanrong raised his head and looked carefully, only to see that in the north of the city, there were several clouds of thick smoke rising, and he could faintly hear some battle cries.
In the twilight, there were suddenly two whistling arrows that soared into the sky, piercing through the clouds. "General, quickly look, a big fish has appeared in the north of the city!" Xu Zhen pointed at the whistling arrows and shouted excitedly.
"Not good!" Lin Official was so scared that he almost jumped up from his wheelchair, "Xu Zhen, quickly, tell the brothers in the forest to retreat! Retreat immediately! "
