Li Hong and the ministers of Zhen state were at a loss for the passive situation at present, and neither of them could think of a good way.

At last, Shi Qinshu, the chief of Youcheng, carefully stepped forward and said, "great king, millions of allied forces have been under the city, and the garrison of our capital is less than 400000, which is really hard to resist. According to Wei Chen's opinion, we have only the way to make peace with the coalition forces."

before he finished, Li Hongmeng slapped a table and interrupted Qin Shu's words. Qin Shu asked him to make peace, which Li Hong could not accept. With the present situation of the state of Zhen, there is no capital to talk about peace. Negotiating peace is tantamount to capitulation, which is tantamount to pulling him down from the throne or even the throne. He has to ask Yin Zhun for his guilt. How can Li Hong accept such a disgrace?

"The enemy has besieged the capital, and the life and death of the kingdom of Zhen are hanging on the front line. As a minister of Dazhen, you don't plan to break the enemy and share the worries for the country and the monarch. On the contrary, you ask the king to surrender to the United forces? What's the use of Wang liu'er and other people who are greedy for life and fear of death? "Then Li Kaisheng said," where are the swordsmen? I'll drag out the treacherous minister and kill him! "

At Li Hong's command, several bodyguards from outside the hall immediately rushed in. Two of them came forward to grab Qin Shu's arms and walked out.

Qin Shu's face was pale with fear, and his body suddenly trembled. He repeatedly called out: "forgive me, my Lord. I'm wronged. Please forgive me."

just then, Li Dan rushed out of the line and waved to the guards who were pulling Qin Shu out. Then he arched his hand to Li Hong and said, "father, there may be something wrong with Lord Qin's advice, but it is also out of loyalty to his father ”

loyalty? Li Hong raised his eyebrows. He didn't see that Qin Shu had any loyalty to himself. Without waiting for him to speak, Li Dan continued: "besides, the United forces are besieging the city, and they have broken the armies of Huaning and Tongcheng. People in the capital are worried. If the father king kills the minister again at this time, he is afraid that the people in the city will be even more chaotic. I hope my father and King think twice."

If someone else tried to persuade him, he might not listen, but it was his son who asked for mercy. What's more, what Li Dan said was not unreasonable.

Li Hong pondered silently for a moment. The chill on his face gradually eased. He raised his head, waved to the guards and said in a deep voice, "you all go down!"

After that, he glared at Qin Shu and said nothing more. He looked around the ministers and said, "who dares to talk about peace in the future? Don't blame this king for turning over his face and ruthlessly punishing him!"

The ministers of the Zhen state all shrunk their necks and bowed their heads one by one. Qin Shu shrunk his shoulders and slipped back to his position. At the same time, he glanced at Li Dan gratefully.

Frankly speaking, Qin Shu is Li Dan's Pathfinder.

When Li Dan proposed to make peace with the United forces, Li Dan tried to test his father's attitude through Qin Shu's mouth. As a result, Li Hong was furious. Li Dan understood that the father would not accept this matter in any case, and he could only think of another way.

After the scattered Dynasty, Li Dan just returned to his house, and the two secret archers left by Tang Yin came to see him. Li Dan invited the two of them to their study, and then told them something about the court.

Now it seems that it is impossible to persuade Li Hong to take the initiative to abdicate. The only way is to use force to forcibly pull him down from the throne. But in this way, it also involves a point, whether it is Li Dan or the United forces.

If Li Dan does it by himself, he has no assurance that he can subdue his father. If the United Army does it, Li Dan must find a way to let the United Army into the city. It's just that it's easy to say, but it's too hard to do.

All the four gates of Xitang were guarded by Li Hong's beloved generals. There were heavy troops stationed there. Without Li Hong's instructions and tokens, no one would want to open the gate. Even if Li Dangui was the crown prince, he did not have the authority.

Two secret archers have been with Li Dan for some time, and both of them can understand his difficulties.

One of them, Lu Jian, suggested, "as the prince, it's easy to get in and out of the palace. If you can steal the token of King Zhen and open the gate of the city, it won't be difficult."

Li Dan, with a wry smile and a faint sigh, said: "the token has been carried by my father all the time. It's hard to steal it. Besides, even if I can steal the token, I still can't open the gate without my father's instruction."

Lu Jian's eyes turned, and a flash of light flashed in his head. He said, "the four gatekeepers will not be here all the time. If they take advantage of their absence and go with their tokens, the generals below should not be embarrassed by their identity."

"This" Li Dan thought carefully and nodded his head slowly. He thought that Lu Jian's method could also be tried, but how could he steal the token?

Li Dan is not in a hurry. He can wait and think of a way slowly, but the secret archers can't wait. They know too much about their own situation. The army's grain and grass can only last for ten days. Now it's nearly ten days. If we can't break the Western soup, the whole army will be in danger.

Lu jianzhengse said: "childe, my king hopes that this war can be ended as soon as possible, so that we can return to Fengguo as soon as possible. Therefore, the matter of welcoming the United forces into the city must be quick, and it is best to do it in a few days."

After a pause, he would remind him if he could do things quickly and well. In the future, it would be easier to plead for the motherland in front of the emperorAlthough he is just an ordinary member in the secret arrow, he now represents Tang Yin. He speaks with great style and shows pride between the lines.

Hearing the speech, Li Dan locked his eyebrows and pondered for a long time. Finally, he turned his heart and said, "OK! I will go into the palace tonight to meet my father Lu Jian's heart was happy. He arched his hands and said with a slow smile, "the success or failure of things depends on the childe."

On the other hand, the situation of the United forces was not as bad as the secret archers thought. After defeating Xu Bufan and the two Lu Zhen army led by the Guan war, the United Army naturally took Huaning and Tongcheng together.

Even though the people in the city resisted the invading coalition forces constantly, they could not pose a great threat due to the lack of regular army organization.

After the capture of Huaning and Tongcheng, the Allied forces seized a large number of food and materials in the city, which ensured the logistic supply of the coalition forces to a certain extent. However, it is true that the coalition forces are eager to break through Xitang. The reason for Tang Yin's anxiety is that they want to rush into Xitang city before the Chuan Mo united army.

Millions of allied forces besieged Xitang. Although the Zhen army in the city did not dare to go out of the city to fight against it, the trouble kept on going.

There are hundreds of thousands of people living in Zhenguo in the outer city of Xitang. Now Xitang has been closed. They want to go in but they are surrounded by coalition forces. Hundreds of thousands of people have to eat and drink every day. It's easy to say that they are trapped in a short time. After a long time, the feeling of fear naturally spreads. In addition, the Zhen people are rude and impulsive, and they attack the coalition camp at night Food grabs occur from time to time.

The union camp is heavily guarded. Chaste people are often shot and killed by the guards when they are not near. Even if some lucky people successfully sneak into the coalition camp, they will soon be found out. The lucky ones can escape in time, and the poor ones will be captured by the coalition forces. The final result is to cut off their heads and hang them on the walls of the joint forces.

It was only three days after the Allied forces besieged Xitang. More than a thousand people of the state of Zhen were shot and captured. The broken heads hanging on the walls of the village were in rows and rows, shocking.

However, the high-pressure means of the United forces failed to stop the Zhen people. The incidents of sneaking camp were not rare, but more. The joint soldiers who were on guard and patrolling at night were often attacked by Zhen people. Some were knocked unconscious, some were killed, their armor, dry food and weapons were robbed, and the last naked was found.

With the increasing casualties of the joint soldiers, the contradiction between the two sides has become more and more fierce. Even a large number of joint soldiers have rushed into the outer city of Xitang and slaughtered the people of Zhen country inside. As a result, the hatred between them has become deeper, and the incidents of Zhen people attacking the coalition forces at night become more frequent.

This is a vicious circle. Mass riots of the chaste people and mass massacres of the coalition forces are likely to happen at any time.

Of course, Tang Yin didn't want to see such a thing happen. In other people's eyes, Zhen people may be barbaric and uncivilized. In his opinion, Zhen people are more valuable than gold and silver jewelry, and can make up for the national strength of the country.

He has been trying his best to suppress the coalition forces and warn them not to intrude into the residential area of Zhen people without authorization, let alone massacre the people of Zhen country for no reason. However, he is the king of wind after all. For his orders, most of the three armies of an, Huan and Yu are in favor of each other, accepting them superficially, and still going their own way behind their backs.

On this day, Tang Yin was discussing military affairs with lingshuang, Yueze and Lixin in the Chinese army tent. A soldier came in and reported that a Zhen man who called himself Diyou wanted to meet Tang Yin.

On hearing that the person who asked for a meeting was Zhen man, Li Xin sneered and said coldly, "just a Zhen dog, dare to see the king of wind with great arrogance? Drive him away, and if there is resistance, execute him on the spot

The policeman promised to leave. Tang Yin stopped him. He said with a smile to Li Xin: "I know this Diyou. The reason why I was able to get into Xitang at the beginning also depended on his help."

"Oh?" Li Xin a Leng, murmured: "originally is he!" After a pause, he said with surprise and joy, "is it that he came to tell brother Wang that he has a way to enter Xitang?"

"That's all right." Tang Yin doesn't want to attack Xi Tang. It's uncertain whether he can win the battle. Now he is counting on Li Dan in the city. If Li Dan can't help, the United Army can only attack by force. If Diyou, a local villain, knows how to sneak into the city and let his army enter the city without knowing it, it will be a great help to his side.
