So he should come down.

After agreeing to the old Taoist priest, Li Xin threw him to Zhao Jia to deal with, and asked Zhao Jia to be in charge of connecting with these people from Taiyi Palace, and then set off for Jincheng by himself.

At this time, Ye Mao and others left, it had been a day and a half, Li Xin rushed to Jincheng at this time, and could barely catch up with their large army.

Zhao Jia sent Li Xin all the way to the gate of Mianzhu, then bowed his head cautiously and said, "Master Hou, these Taoist priests... if they are... who sent them?"

The one he mentioned refers to the Son of Heaven.

Li Xin smiled dumbly, and said: "Brother You'an, don't worry, even if it was really sent by the superiors, when the time comes, I and Biao heard that it was just an expedient measure to treat wounded soldiers, so I had no choice but to use the name of Master Chunyang. , Master Chunyang is merciful and kind, and he definitely doesn’t mind us accepting a junior under his name.”

"I will send someone to Zhongnan Mountain to investigate the people from the so-called Taiyi Palace. Brother Youan just needs to keep an eye on them and let them treat the wounded soldiers in the city. You don't have to worry about other things."

Zhao Jia nodded and said, "This subordinate obeys."

Li Xin got on his horse and left Juechen with dozens of personal guards.

County Magistrate Zhao glanced back at the smiling old Taoist Yiyangzi behind him, and took a deep breath.

"Old Taoist, where is your disciple?"

"Mr. Zhao, don't worry, Pindao will let them come here immediately."

...............

Ye Mao left for a day before Li Xin, and Li Xin was held back by the old Taoist priest for a long time. When he set off, it was almost noon. Most of the troops were infantry, Li Xin had traveled for a day, and by the afternoon of the second day, he had joined Ye Mao.

The young man came over enthusiastically and welcomed Li Xin into the handsome tent. After Li Xin entered the handsome tent, he sat on the main seat and asked Ye Mao, "How far is it to Jincheng?"

Ye Mao lowered his head to calculate, and said, "It's about sixty or seventy miles away. By tonight, it will be twenty miles away from Jincheng."

Li Xin waved his hand and said, "Don't go any further, just stop here and set up camp."

Ye Mao hesitated for a moment, and said: "General, it's only afternoon, let's go fast enough to reach near Jincheng in the dark, there is no need to delay another day..."

Lord Jing'an frowned slightly.

"If you are told to go, you can go. No one can tell what is going on in Jincheng now. Let's rush to the city of Jincheng. If they set up an ambush, we won't even have time to react."

Ye Mao nodded, bent over and clasped his fists: "The general will arrange camping now."

When he was about to retreat, Li Xin suddenly called out to him.

"Ye Mao, do you believe me or not?"

The little father-in-law smiled honestly: "What did the uncle say? What did the uncle say along the way? Is there any reason why my nephew doesn't believe in the uncle?"

Li Xin nodded, and said in a deep voice: "You just need to believe me. If we enter Jincheng, you can do what I say. Don't have any doubts. If there is anything you can't figure out, wait until the southwest war is over. , I’ll explain it to you again, okay?”

Ye Mao looked up at Li Xin.

He lowered his brows and said, "My nephew has written down what the uncle said."

Lord Jing'an took a deep breath, stepped forward and patted the big man's shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "If you trust me, I won't harm you. If you don't want to trust me completely, then this attack on Jincheng It is up to me to direct, how to do it, you can choose it yourself, young master."

Ye Mao didn't hesitate at all, he smiled and said: "Uncle Shi's words are too foreign, my father and grandfather have explained to me before coming here, no matter what happens along the way, I will listen to Uncle Shi, even if I enter Jincheng, Uncle Shi Let me let Li Shen go, and I won't say anything else."

Li Xin nodded.

"Don't worry about that. If Li Shen is captured, I won't cover him up. I will naturally escort him to the capital for questioning."

"Okay, these are enough flowers after breaking the city, you go down and arrange camping first."

Ye Mao bowed his head deeply, bent over and stepped back.

Li Xin sat on the main seat of the handsome tent, and slowly closed his eyes.

Originally, he didn't need to talk to Ye Mao about this, because as long as Jincheng breaks down, if there is any Pingnan army inside that hasn't been transferred out, then it's Li Shen's problem, not Li Xin's. The Pingnan Army captured them all together.

However, Li Xin wanted to lie about the number of "killed enemies". This operation can be hidden from anyone, but it can't be hidden from Ye Mao who is on the front line. If Ye Mao gets into a fight because of this, everyone will get even more angry.

Therefore, Li Xin had to communicate with his nephew in advance, so as not to make it difficult when the time came.

As for the rest of the Forbidden Army, there is no need to say hello.

Those of them in the middle and lower classes had no way of knowing how many Pingnan troops the whole army had killed, and even if they faintly felt that something was wrong, they would not say anything more.

No one doesn't want to make a lot of military achievements for no reason.

As a result, the [-] forbidden troops under Li Xin set up tents sixty or seventy miles away from Jincheng. Jincheng formed a trend of encirclement.

That night, a middle-aged man quietly entered the camp of the imperial army under Li Xin.

Lord Jing'an greeted him personally, and gave the middle-aged man a junior salute.

"Uncle Mu is here in person."

Mu Ying, the head of the Mu family, hurriedly returned the salute to Li Xin, and said, "Master Hou, you are welcome."

Li Xin welcomed him into the handsome tent with a smile, and poured him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"Uncle Mu, are all Brother Mu's people in place?"

Mu Qing lowered her head to take the tea that Li Xin handed over, and said in a deep voice: "If you go back to Lord Hou, Mu Ying has already arrived at the place designated by Lord Hou, and is waiting for Lord Hou's orders at any time."

Li Xin nodded and said straight to the point.

"The juniors are welcome. Tomorrow morning, Brother Mu will lead the Hanzhou rebels to attack from the west gate of Jin City, and our forbidden army will support them at the east gate."

Lord Jing'an said in a deep voice: "Starting tomorrow, the Hanzhou Rebel Army will attack for at least three days, and then our Imperial Army will attack Jincheng. Uncle Mu, is there any problem?"

When Li Xin said these words, he kept looking at Mu Qing's face.

Although the Patriarch of the Mu family looked a little unhappy, he didn't say anything in the end. He just lowered his head and smiled wryly: "Of course our Hanzhou army can take the main attack. In order to show loyalty, it doesn't matter if you die a little, but Lord Hou, let me Hanzhou The state army will attack Jincheng first, I am afraid there will be some objections in our army."

Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and said, "Uncle Mu, Jincheng may be an empty city now."

"Hanzhou rebels are the main attack. I can write in the memorial that Jincheng Pingnan army was beheaded by tens of thousands of Hanzhou rebels! What is in front of your eyes is the credit at your fingertips!"

Lord Jing'an's voice was low.

"At that time, it is not impossible for Brother Mu to be a Marquis."

"Just look, is the Mu family willing to gamble?"

Chapter 583

Earlier, Li Xin and Li Shen said that he should send the Pingnan Army who should leave in batches out of Jincheng in the next few days, so that when the city is broken, it is logical to say that these missing Pingnan Army "died in battle". But because the number of these people is too large, it would be too obvious if all the "heads" were counted on the [-] imperial guards.
