When Li Xu heard this, his eyes swept across the faces of the three of them one by one, and he smiled slightly and said, "Three uncles, I'm just talking about some ideas. But some things are indeed not yet time. When the time is right, I will tell you the three of you truthfully."

The three of them looked a little solemn when they heard this. Obviously, the attitude and content that Li Xu showed tonight were definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Li Xu looked at the expressions of the three of them and smiled, "The three uncles don't need to be so serious. I, Li Xu, are not such ungrateful people. If I had not been taken care of by you three, I, Li Xu, would not have been today. I remember you in my heart. If I can stand out in the future, I will definitely repay you."

When Liu Jian heard this, he felt relieved and nodded to Song Mu and Song Yu.

The two nodded slightly too.

In terms of this, Li Xu is the person recommended by Liu Jian, and is an old partner of the team of Sanshui County. In terms of his understanding of Li Xu, Liu Jian must be the deepest.

All three of them are so powerful, so naturally they can hear something from Li Xu's words.

Especially Li Xu's confident tone when talking about the musket made an extremely astonishing guess in his heart.

But since Li Xu didn't say it explicitly, they naturally couldn't break it, so they could only make indirect attacks.

Now that Li Xu has been confirmed, he will continue to be kind to them and can be trustworthy, so everything else is easy to say.

By changing the topic, Song Mu mentioned Lin Yi’s defeat last time, looked at Li Xu and asked, “Brother Xu, do you think it was the elite army sent by the Wei people who ambushed Lin Yi and wiped out his entire army?”

This question is obviously something Song Mu wanted to ask for a long time, because although a lot of information was collected through various channels, the information was complicated and trivial, and even a lot of it was contradictory and could not be justified.

However, Li Xu, the former Sanshui County lieutenant, was the closest person to Yan'an Prefecture, so Song Mu instinctively felt that Li Xu knew more than them.

Li Xu looked around, and Liu Jian and Song Yu also looked at him with anticipation.

"Uncle Song, no one can explain clearly what the real situation is. But one thing is certain, that is, Lin Yi will definitely not be defeated by Gao Beizi's men."

Everyone nodded to agree with this conclusion. If Gao Bei was so strong, he would not have just been wandering around Yan'an Prefecture. Maybe they would have gone to Chang'an City to show off their power.

Li Xu continued: "According to common sense, the Wei people are the most suspicious. But in addition to the Wei people, the Zhao people are also very likely. It is even possible for the two countries to join forces to cause trouble in the heart of our Qin State."

Song Mu frowned and asked, "You mean that the person who secretly sponsored Gao Zhe may be the Zhao people, and the Wei people are responsible for attracting my main force in the Qin Dynasty. The Zhao people took the opportunity to mess up my Qin Dynasty's confidant. The two countries joined forces to subvert my Qin Dynasty?"

Li Xu nodded and shook his head again and said, "I can only say that everything is possible. It is even possible that a new force is causing trouble behind the scenes. The world is too chaotic now. On the surface, it seems that the eight countries are dividing the world, but there are also mountains in various countries, and various forces are fighting and fighting each other. So I can't say it right now."

Li Xu talked for a long time, but actually said nothing.

The only function is to make Song Mu frown even tighter.

In fact, Li Xu just said casually, making the water in Qin State more muddy and making the Song family feel more crisis stronger, and that when he controls Qin State, he will be more smooth.

Liu Jian and Song Yu also pondered without saying a word.

Seeing this, Li Xu gave another fire:

"Uncle Song, whether it is the Wei people, the Zhao people, or some other unknown forces, since they can plan this plan to subvert our Qin Dynasty, they must have planned everything long ago. Their plans must be linked together. Lin Yi's entire army was wiped out. In addition to Lin Yi's own contempt for the enemy, there must be their inner support in our Qin Dynasty. Otherwise, Lin Yi would not have been defeated so miserably. Since Lin Yi's actions have long been known clearly, is Lin Ruhai's expedition this time also under the other party's plan?"

Song Mu's eyes narrowed and looked at Li Xu and said in a deep voice: "You mean the other party has been ready to deal with Lin Ruhai, so Lin Ruhai's expedition this time is likely to repeat the mistakes of his son Lin Yi?"

Song Yu continued: "Lin Yi was young and energetic, and was prone to underestimating the enemy, but Lin Ruhai had been on the battlefield for decades and was the number one person in my Qin army. He was very skilled in using troops, so he should not be as stormy as Lin Yi."

Li Xu shook his head and said, "I just mentioned a possibility. If the other party could expect Lin Ruhai to take charge of the battle, he would definitely have prepared a way to deal with him. If this is true, then even if Lin Ruhai is cautious, this battle would probably not go too smoothly. Therefore, we should prepare some things early so that we will not be in a hurry at that time."

As for what to prepare, if Li Xu doesn’t say it, Song Mu will definitely think about it.

If Lin Ruhai is really defeated, there will definitely be many positions in the Qin army. This is an excellent opportunity to take the opportunity to strengthen the power of the Song family.

But in contrast, once Lin Ruhai is really defeated, the enemy is likely to take the opportunity to go south to the city of Chang'an, and all the pressure will be on the Song family.

Since you want to seize power, you must take responsibility.

Therefore, the second thing to do is to make psychological preparations for staying in Chang'an City, material reserves and troops in advance.

Although Lin Ruhai is the political enemy of the Song family and one of the biggest opponents, Song Mu did not think about taking the opportunity to kill Lin Ruhai.

His purpose is to take advantage of this expedition to weaken the reputation and strength of the Lin family and take the opportunity to expand his influence in the army.

The conflict between Lin Ruhai and Song clan belongs to the internal conflict between Qin, but once Lin Ruhai falls, it will be difficult for the entire Qin State to find any future that can match Lin Ruhai in all aspects.

This is what it means to be easy to get a thousand troops, but it is hard to find a general.

When the enemy is really at the city, it will be too dangerous.

Once Chang'an City is lost, the foundation of Qin will be lost. Even if you can continue to form an exiled court with the little emperor, where can you go?

After all, this is the Qin State that is in a stable area, not the Qin State that swept across the Liuhe Kingdom back then.

Therefore, once Chang'an City is captured, the Qin State will be destroyed.

Song Mu obviously realized this and frowned and pondered for a long time.

Song Yu and Liu Jian also looked at each other and remained silent.

When Li Xu saw this scene, he smiled secretly.

Once you achieve your goal, it depends on how they do the rest.

"Three uncles, it's getting late, so my nephew will take his leave first."

As he said that, he stood up and bowed, leaving the table.
