The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

"It's because I have the eyesight that I didn't recognize gold inlaid with jade. Good! Well done!"

The county guard patted Tang Zhengqi's shoulder heavily, his eyes full of joy and appreciation.

Tang Zhengqi cupped his fists and bowed, "I was rude before, but fortunately the county magistrate was generous and didn't care about me."

"But that's not the case. We still have to pay compensation."

"It doesn't matter." The county guard pulled Tang Zhengqi up, "Let's go, the celebration banquet is ready. I secretly bought a jar of wine from Zuixianfang, and I have been reluctant to drink it. Today, let's get drunk before we stop!"

Different from being forced before, the people voluntarily slaughtered chickens and ducks and sent them.

Let the soldiers eat and drink well.

The atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

Li Yi was not as good as Tang Zhengqi. He used white water to cook noodles at night. Fortunately, there was no shortage of salt and he could taste it.

"Duke Du, when we get here, King Xi has not taken any action, not even a symbolic harassment or expulsion. What is he planning?"

Yin Cheng finished sucking the noodles, drank every drop of the noodle soup, wiped his mouth, looked at Li Yi and chatted.

"What ideas do you have, it's just to smother us in a pot."

"Have arrangements been made for the people inside?" Li Yi bent his legs and looked at the moonlight. After being out for so many days, he missed his wife and children.

"Long before Du Gong came back, our people had already lurked into Yizhou."

"Don't worry, everyone, it's absolutely foolproof."

"We just need to wait for the good news from Tang Zhengqi, and we can take action at any time."

Li Yi nodded and sighed softly, "Although King Xi rebelled, the people are innocent. If we can reduce the casualties, we should try to reduce the casualties as much as possible."

"I let King Xi and the family go, and gave them time to rebel. I just want to eradicate them in a legitimate way."

"Then Daqian needs a victory to deter both internal and external forces."

"The imperial court is never empty and has no fear of rebellion!"

"If there is no internal chaos, the country will not be in turmoil."

"Reforms can then be rolled out across the board."

"Yin Cheng, Daqian's future will definitely exceed your imagination." Li Yi closed his eyes, and the world in his mind slowly unfolded.

Yin Cheng looked at him with longing in his eyes.

What will Dagan, a fully developed country, look like in the future? He was really looking forward to it.

In the middle of the night, Yin Cheng rushed into Li Yi's camp and said, "Duke, there is news from Qingjun!"

"Tang Zhengqi wins!"

"The 50,000-strong army led by Bian Sui captured 30,000 prisoners and suffered 20,000 casualties. A great victory!"

"The only drawback is that Bian Sui ran away."

Li Yi rubbed his forehead and said, "Let me know, the whole army is ready to attack the city early tomorrow morning!"

After saying that, Li Yi lay down, closed his eyes and started to sleep.

Yin Cheng stepped back slowly, conveyed the order, returned to his tent, and fell asleep.

Before the battle, the state must be adjusted to the best.

Being stunned on the battlefield can be fatal.

"Your Majesty! Urgent report!"

King Xi's personal guards knocked on the door, and the knocking was thick and urgent.

Not long after, King Xi came out.

"My lord, something happened in Qingjun!"

"Bian Sui was defeated and disappeared. Nearly 20,000 of the 50,000-strong army were destroyed. The rest have been incorporated into Qingjun." The guard said urgently.

King Xi's expression immediately became solemn. After hearing the personal guard explain the specific situation, his eyes became gloomy. He thought he was a bastard, but he didn't expect it was a wolf cub!

Now that Tang Zhengqi is acting, Lu Yu can no longer look at him the same way as before.

"Send the order, prepare the whole army, and ask Meng Han to come back immediately and kill Lu Yu with all his strength!" King Xi said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" The guards retreated hurriedly.

The lights in Prince Xi's Mansion, which had been turned off, were suddenly brightly lit. Not only Prince Xi's Mansion was brightly lit, but the aristocratic family had also received the news.

Not caring whether the night was dark or not, they rushed to Prince Xi's Mansion one after another.

"Your Highness, we must deal with Lu Yu as soon as possible, lest he set a trap like Tang Zhengqi and lure us in." An old man said.

"Although there are still troops in Yizhou, it is still extremely difficult to keep all of Lu Yu's 100,000 men. Unless General Meng comes back and a two-pronged attack occurs, Lu Yu will be unable to fight back."

"I can't wait that long." Mr. Shen, who had been silent all this time, spoke up. He looked at King Xi, "Your Majesty, we must send troops early tomorrow morning to find out Lu Yu's true identity."

"He has been here for a few days. There must be traps around him."

"Although gunpowder is very powerful, we can bear the loss if it is dispersed."

"You must be one step ahead of him before he makes a move."

"You can also use rockets to attack the camp and detonate its gunpowder."

King Xi nodded, "That's it."

Seeing that the matter was settled, everyone left from Prince Xi's Mansion.

Waiting for morning to come.

When the sky was about to get dark, the guards came to King Xi and stopped talking.

King Xi frowned, "What's the matter?"

Gritting his teeth, the guard swallowed his saliva and said cautiously, "The Tang family sent a letter asking us to redeem the person with gold. They said it would be ten gold each."

After finishing speaking, the guard held his breath and concentrated.

Frost gathered on King Xi's face, "A bunch of useless trash!"

"Redemption?" Anger rose in King Xi's eyes. Did the Tang family want to play the same trick as Lu Yu?

Just wait, no one can escape!

King Xi calmed his breathing and suppressed the resentment rising in his heart.

Looking at the sky, he stood up slowly, "Assemble the army, and whoever takes Lu Yu's head will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver!"

"Du Gong, there is a big move in Yizhou City. I'm afraid they know about Qingjun and are preparing to surround us." Yin Cheng said to Li Yi at the front of the team.

"That's not right." Li Yi looked ahead, gently pinched the horse's belly, and walked not fast enough for King Xi's spies to send the news back.

"Your Majesty, Lu Yu's troops have moved and are heading towards Yizhou."

"Well done!" King Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, dressed in armor, left the palace, and led the people to gallop toward the city tower.

Looking at the place where the dust was rolling from a distance, King Xi stroked the blade at his waist. He couldn't wait to kill Lu Yu with the sword!

"Lieutenant General Gan, you lead 10,000 people and go out of the city to ambush. When the explosives sound, kill them!" King Xi spoke softly.

"The last general takes orders."

There were still ten miles away from Yizhou. Li Yi seemed to be tired, so he ordered to rest.

His actions are certainly arousing, but what is their purpose?

Could it be to lure them over? There must be gunpowder hidden around!

After waiting and waiting, Lu Yu didn't move. King Xi asked five hundred people to prepare rockets to see what kind of trap Lu Yu had prepared.

Li Yi looked at the rockets flying everywhere in front of him and raised his eyebrows. This made Gunpowder scared.

Thinking that he had buried gunpowder, he waited for them to come over.

I really think too much.

How could a gentle gentleman like him use gunpowder to blow people up?

The main reason is that these people have seen it time and time again, so it’s hard to explode.

Alertness is very high.

The method Tang Zhengqi used, as long as the opponent was not a fool, he would never be able to succeed again.

Therefore, Li Yi would never do such a meaningless thing and waste resources.

Looking at Yizhou City, Li Yi raised his lips. His plan was not outside, but inside.
