Chapter 227 Holding Li Xin hostage
Chapter 227 Holding Li Xin hostage
Li Xin strode in, came up to Fusu and bowed, "Your Highness, the last general Xingye came here because of an urgent military situation, I hope you will forgive me."

"General Li is out of touch now. You and I are shouldering the rules of guarding the soil. We must not be sloppy. What happened?"

"His Royal Highness, Zhao Miao reestablished Zhao State, and now he is marching towards Yuyang and other counties with an army of tens of thousands. Yuyang is the key to our plan to recover the old Yan. If Zhao Miao takes this place, it will affect our future. The plan is extremely unfavorable. Therefore, the final general intends to lead an army to conquer Yuyang and occupy Yuyang before Zhao Miao."

Li Xin is the general of a hundred battles, but now he is really worried.

Before that, Yuyang was a land of no man, and it took them only a blink of an eye to occupy it.

But now, they are taking in too many victims, too many to bear.In order to ensure law and order, Li Xin had to leave nearly half of his troops behind, which also caused the Qin army to be weak on the offensive end.

If Yuyang and other places were lost, the Zhao army could cut off the connection between the Qin army in Liaodong and Guanzhong. At that time, they would be really in danger.

"General, come here, sit down first!" Fu Su pulled Li Xin to sit down.

Seeing Fusu's relaxed appearance, Li Xin quickly stood up and said, "Your Highness, it is extremely urgent, and I hope you will send troops quickly!" '

Fu Su smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know that even if the old Zhao is restored, I, Qin Jun, are not vegetarians."At the beginning, Wang Ben led the army to defeat Zhang Er's army by tens of thousands in Shangcai.Zhao Miao is just a few thieves, even if he has some soldiers and horses in his hands, he can't compare with Zhang Er and Chen Yu. Our army can dispatch all of them without any effort. '

Li Xin laughed when Fusu said this and said no more.

Fusu said again: "I want to talk to the general about something important."

"What's the matter?"

Fu Su got up slowly, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Li Xin.

"I also hope that the general will save me from the fire and water."

Li Xin was a little puzzled by his disturbance, he quickly helped Fusu up, and hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, if you have anything to ask, Li Xin will definitely do his best."

Fusu sighed and said: "This matter is not only about Fusu, but also about the general, and about the whole Great Qin."

Hearing what he said, Li Xin's face suddenly became serious.

"To be honest, General, Fusu is at the end of his rope. Only the General can save me from the fire."

Li Xin was about to ask, but Fusu interrupted him directly.

"Zhao Gang bewitched his father and deceived the people. This is an unforgivable crime. I plan to raise soldiers from Liaodong to attack Guanzhong, kill Zhao Gang, and wipe out the court."

Li Xin's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

"Your Highness, you... what are you talking about? Why can't Xin understand?"

Fusu said again: "The general and I are trapped in the land of Liaodong, and there are enemies on all sides. Whether it is the Huns or the restoration forces of Zhao and Yan, they are all eyeing. But who can know the sacrifice of you and me? Who can know? It's all because of Zhao Gang. This person and Xu Fu are in the same group. They used alchemy to deceive the emperor, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and everyone. Now they put us here just to kill people with a knife and let us destroy ourselves .”

Li Xin didn't know if it was true or not, so he didn't want to say much, he just looked at Fusu quietly, trying to see something from Fusu's face.

It's a pity that Fusu's acting skills made him really unable to see anything.

After watching for a while, he said: "Your Highness, this matter is not a joke. If there is a mistake, not only the life of the general will be lost, but you may also be... Therefore, it is better to think twice before acting. There are important matters in the general. , I won’t stay here any longer, and I hope you will forgive me.”

After all, Li Xin got up and was about to leave.

Fusu sat there without any movement, as if he didn't hear Li Xin's words at all.

Li Xin was turning around, suddenly there were several figures in front of him, he instinctively touched his sword, but his hands were empty.Only then did he remember that when he first entered the mansion, Fusu's servants asked him to leave his weapons outside.

"Who are you? Your Highness, what do you mean?"

Li Xin looked at the people in front of him angrily.

After all, he is also a battle-tested general of the Qin State. Even though he is currently at a disadvantage, he is not afraid at all.

"General Li, if you don't agree today, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave this room."

Li Xin's pupils dilated instantly, looking at the person in front of him, he exclaimed, "Zhao Gao, you...why are you here?"

Zhao Gao bowed respectfully in the direction of Fusu and said, "I am now a minister of the eldest son. Where else can I go if not here."

Li Xin looked back at Fusu and said sadly, "My lord, you are so confused! Don't you know who Zhao Gao is? You plan together with him, and you are going to kill yourself!"

Fu Su stood up slowly, looked at Li Xin in front of him and said calmly: "General Li, let me ask you one last time, are you willing or not to join the army with me?"

Seeing that Fusu was determined, Li Xin turned his head to the side and ignored Fusu. He looked up to the sky and sighed, "I thought Emperor Shi was so wise, but he didn't want to give birth to a son like you. As for being reduced to such a situation.”

Li Xin's words completely ignited the anger deep in Fusu's heart. Looking at Li Xin in front of him, he kicked him to the ground and cursed: "Zhao Gang, Zhao Gang, his name is Zhao Gang, Li Xin, since If you are so obsessed with obsession, then don’t blame my subordinates for being merciless. Someone, push Li Xin out and chop him up.”

Saying that, two guards walked in from the outside.

Zhao Gao quickly stopped them, smiled and said to Fusu: "Your Highness, Li Xin is the commander of the three armies. If you kill him like this, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable to the prince's rule. Why don't you take Li Xin's military talisman first, and then control the military power?" , and then discuss how to deal with it.”

Fusu nodded and looked at Li Dao in front of him: "Li Xin, where is the soldier amulet?"

Li Xin snorted coldly: "I don't know."

Zhao Gao came to Li Xin and said with a smile: "General Li, I respect your talent, and I hope you don't make things difficult for us. You also know that I came from a trap. There are many methods of interrogation. If you hurt General Li at that time, But it is Daqin's loss."

Li Xin looked at Zhao Gao coldly and said, "Hey, shameless eunuch, you are so helpful to the evildoers, sooner or later you will die without a place to bury you."

Zhao Gao hated people calling him a castrate the most, and now he was furious when he heard that, he didn't bother to waste any more words, and directly ordered to the left and right: "Take him down and interrogate me severely, I won't believe it, and he won't speak out."

"Yes!"

Several men escorted Li Xin out.

After they left, Fu Su looked at Zhao Gao in front of him and asked nervously: "If there is no soldier talisman, what should we do?"

Zhao Gao thought for a while and replied: "Even if you lose the soldier talisman, you are not afraid. You are the eldest son of His Majesty and the supervisor of the Liaodong army. You can temporarily control the army by relying on your prestige. When everything is in order, even if the soldiers want to betray you It’s too late.”
