In order to avoid Chen Zixiao and Xiao Yanhan's troubles when leaving Shuozhou City, Xu Wuli accompanied them out in person and returned to the governor's mansion to see Xu Huai. Liu Qiong'er was still sitting in the living room of the West Courtyard; Guo, who had something to do, left.

Jun Sheng was also sitting in the living room at this time, and was cooking tea around the brazier.

Dayue tea is mainly used for cakes and tea. They must be roasted on charcoal fire first. Wait until the moisture in the tea cake is gone, put it in a tea box and then grind it into powder. Remove the tea stems and set aside. Boil the water and add a little salt.

Mix and mix, add tea foam after boiling for two, and then drink tea after boiling for three.

The literati and officials did not feel it was complicated to drink tea, but they enjoyed it. Xu Huai and others would only occasionally do it when they needed to discuss it for a long time.

Xu Huai is also used to cooking tea himself, so that he can speak less and listen to others' comments.

Xu Wuji sat down and said, "Linhuang Mansion, Dading Mansion may have fallen, otherwise Xiao Linshi would not have been so anxious to send Chen Zixiao to test our weaknesses and reality; Chen Zixiao actually tried to instigate us to assassinate us.

Cao Shixiong, Cao Shili, some of them are anxious to seek medical treatment..."

"What, this dog is such a bad idea?" Guo Junzong asked a little furiously.

Although he and Pan Chenghu became enemies in Tongbai Mountain, they have been careful to maintain their relationship with the surrounding Wuzhai over the years and live a stable life by collecting protection fees. At first, they thought it was Zheng Hui and Dong Qifeng who caused trouble.

Like them, Chen Zixiao was bewitched or entangled by the times. Who would have thought that Chen Zixiao was a completely ulterior motive?

Even after being recruited to Lanzhou, Chen Zixiao was determined to borrow their swords to disrupt right and wrong.

For the sake of the overall situation, Xu Huai let Chen Zixiao go. Guo Jun was sentenced to be an adult, and had no objection, but he did not expect that Chen Zixiao would not change his nature. At this time, he came over to do something to deceive. He listened.

Of course, it's infuriating.

Is it the same thing to assassinate Guo Caoling and the assassinate Cao Shixiong and Cao Shili brothers?

To be honest, Xiao Linshi will have three or five powerful assassins under him. I don’t know how many hidden stakes they have hidden in Lanzhou. If they really want to assassinate Cao Shixiong and Cao Shili, why don’t they arrange to instigate him to take action?

I am simply bullying this place as a three-year-old child.

"Let someone let Han Lurong let those two men go!"

Xu Huai sprinkled salt into the boiled soup and said.

In the first place, Xiao Linshi had two secret stakes, Xiao Yanhan, Chen Zixiao and others were caught by them. They had also moved to Shuozhou before. Xu Huai was interested in putting these two secret stakes at this time.

Let them follow Xiao Yanhan, Chen Zixiao and the others to respond to the state.

"Then Han Lurong was so arrogant that he was very powerful under Xiao Linshi's command. He really let them go like this?" Guo Junzong asked hesitantly.

Although they took the initiative to propose the cession of the army and stop the war, Xiao Linshi repeatedly made trouble, and Guo Jun judged that Shuozhou's attitude should not be too weak.

"Linhuang Prefecture, Dading Prefecture has been trapped. It is enough for the Chihu people to use partial troops to attack Liaoyang Prefecture. The main force may have returned to Mobei for rest and rest. There is no need to wait until summer and autumn. There is only news that the partial troops have captured Liaoyang Prefecture.

When it is sent back to the north of Mo, the Chihu people will organize troops to visit Yinshan," Xu Huai said. "After all, we hope that Xiao Linshi can lead his troops to Yinshan to block the Chihu people..."

What they are facing now is not just the problem of Cao Shixiong, but also the problem of Cao Shili's brothers turning to Chihu people, not just the problem of Chihu people behind the scenes of the Xishan Mountains, but also one thing that cannot be ignored, then Xiao Xin

Will Han, Xiao Gan, Li Chulin and others join the Chihu people?

Obviously, in the established historical trajectory, the Chihu people chose to go south, and they were extremely fast and fast. This not only meant that the Hedong or Hebei defense lines of Dayue were destroyed like a destruction, but also meant that the Khitan was in its western capital.

Or the remnants of Nanjing are also very powerless to resist.

If Xu Huai ignored the question of the remnants of the Khitan forces at this time, he would be too sorry for the warnings that the memory flashed in his mind.

Although the imperial court recalled Cai Yuanyou, Wang Fan, Zhu Han, Wang Bing and others back to Bianjing, the Xiaosheng Army, Xuanwu Army and other imperial guards who had been transferred from the Western Army did not return to Jingzhou and other places.

The land is still stationed in Xindayi.

On the one hand, the Tianxiong Army suffered a heavy blow. Before the reconstruction was completed, other imperial guards needed to be responsible for the defense of the northeast of the river, but the court did not mean to attack Yan again.

The court seized Ge Boyi's position as the governor of Hedong and moved the Ge clans to Bianjing, but did not arrange for others to replace them. Instead, Liu Shizhong, the commander of the Xiaosheng Army, who had been Cai Ying's deputy in the Western Army for a long time, took over as Hedong.

A strategic commander is an extremely important proof.

Even though the court was not willing to attack Yan twice at this time, Xu Huai still had to consider Cao Shixiong and Cao Shili's brothers secretly defected to Chihu people, and they would most likely instigate Liu Shizhong and others to attack Yan again.

In short, the situation they will face will be extremely complex and dangerous within the next six months to one year.

Listening to Xu Huai's careful analysis of the possible situation next time, Guo Junjue thought of something and asked: "Will Xiao Linshi surrender to Chihu people? You said a lot just now, and it seems that this is missing."

"It's not that I missed it, it's that I'm a little unwilling to speculate on this possibility." Xu Huai said with a wry smile.

"Indeed, if Xiao Linshi intends to join the Chihu people, we should have no other way except to break the whole thing and retreat south, right?" Xu Wuli picked up the tea bowl and said.

"It seems to be!" Guo Junzong scratched his head and said, "If this is the case, it would be simple. Anyway, I can't make any trouble, so it's better to just scatter south at all costs."

Since the northern expedition to Yan, there are still 200,000 enemy soldiers gathered in the Huihe Valley and the north and south of Changshan. To be honest, before the Chihu cavalry advanced south, so many soldiers and horses really scared them, Xiao Linshi was the main thing that really scared them.

At this time, more than 20,000 foreign soldiers stationed in Yingzhou were led.

After adjustment and replenishment, although the total number of troops reached 50,000 again, they would be transferred to the front line.

The troops that were siege in Shuozhou were actually quite limited. On the other hand, the combat effectiveness of this part of the Xijing troops was not much stronger than that of the Tianxiong army before the northern expedition to Yan.

The combat effectiveness of the Tianxiong Army that Cao Shixiong and Cao Shili took over at this time was even more dispersed. At this time, the Xiaosheng Army and Xuanwu Army stationed in Xin Dai and other places, although they were known as the elite of the Western Army, it was impossible for Guo Jun to have the opportunity to have the

How high do you think of them?

After thinking about it, Xiao Linshi's wits were not only able to fight but also had a group of pretty strong generals following him, but his wits were terrifying.

If Xiao Linshi led his troops to join the Chihu people, they would still be scrambling to make a fuss in Shuozhou!

"A person like Xiao Linshi should not easily fall into the Chihu people. As Uncle Wu said, they also realized that the situation was very critical. How would they handle this situation carefully?" Liu Qiong'er hesitated.

Asked.

Xu Huai stared at the red charcoal burning in the brazier. Although the memory fragments that flashed in his mind were short and small, it was so small that both men and women could not bear it, some things still had trajectories.

At present, their direct reconnaissance scouts of the Chihu people were unable to be carried out due to the lack of necessary personnel. However, since the establishment of Yueyu Tower, one of the main things Liu Qionger did was to fight all the Chihu people in Shuozhou.

Those who have been dealing with each other find out, copy what they see and hear and sort out.

The main remaining people in Shuozhou City are the elderly, weak, women and children. Even though most people have limited contact with the Chihu people, the copied news is very fragmented, but most of the time the intelligence work is to puzzle pieces of fragmented information.

At this time, at least in the process of rising, the Chihu people always eliminated their nobles and digested them in the surrounding tribes, alliances or annexed them.

The Chihu people invaded the entire Khitan territory, which is no longer a question mark, but how will the Chihu people digest the legacy after the demise of the Khitan? A region of thousands of miles wide and a population of tens of millions of people?

It is the key to the follow-up.

However, people like Xiao Linshi would not be unable to see Khitan nobles or other generals who surrendered to Chihu people or could still maintain wealth, but it is hard to say that the children of the royal family would not be killed by Chihu people.

A person like Xiao Linshi has the ability, prestige, and has a group of elite soldiers to follow him. He really wants to surrender to the Chihu people. The Chihu people might have used him to invade the Central Plains at first, but how could they think about not bringing him in the end.

Eliminate future troubles?

Xiao Xinhan and Xiao Gan are afraid of death in front of you and ignore this. How could a person like Xiao Linshi not understand these?

If the possibility of Xiao Linshi surrendering to the enemy was eliminated, the Yunshuo area fell very quickly in the historical trajectory. There are only three possibilities for Xiao Linshi's fate. One is that it will soon perish, and the other is to lead the troops to lead the troops.

Escape eastward to Yanji, but both possibilities are very low.

Xiao Linshi's troops were not qualified to fight against the Chihu people, but Datong, Yingzhou, Huairen, Jincheng and Fengzhou were not without cities. Even if Xiao Linshi was attacked by the Chihu people and the Dayue soldiers, as long as the food was continued,

There should be no problem if it supports it for one and a half years.

At this time, Xiao Linshi should have realized that the Khitan situation was hopeless. What did he do to lead his troops to escape east to Yanji?

That is the third possibility:

Xiao Linshi had actually decided to lead his troops to escape west and avoid the sharp edge of the Red Hu cavalry going south!

Xu Huai patted Liu Qiong'er's thigh and said:

"I know what Chen Zixiao and Xiao Yanhan meant to come this time. They didn't want to instigate us to assassinate Cao Shixiong. They were here to explore the way! They were going to run west! They were going to bring tens of thousands of tribal men, women, and young men with hundreds of tribes.

Moving westward requires the Xishan area south of Yinshan to be safe enough to pass, but we and the Shanhu people blocked the passage to join the Dangxiang in the west! Of course, they may not necessarily want to join the Dangxiang in the end, and they may very likely want to lead the remnants to continue.
Chapter completed!
