The thick smoke from the fire of war has darkened the sky.

Hedong Shatuo people camped in cowhide tents.

"The people of King Shatuo, please go to Fenglin Valley tonight."

No matter how many times he read it, these two sentences are still the same as when he first saw it. Li Cunzhang found this rolled sheepskin in his armor, but he didn't know how the letter came from, nor did he know who sent it. The letter was not signed, no seal, no seal, and his handwriting was also very strange. He put the letter on his chest and whispered to himself, "The people of King Shatuo, please go to Fenglin Valley tonight."

What exactly does this mean?

Li Cunzhang's first reaction was that the letter might have been sent by Li Siyuan's people quietly.

Since King Jin disappeared for a long time and Li Siyuan was under house arrest, succeeded the commander of Du Yuhou and reached a series of cession agreements with Li Jing. The soldiers of the Shatuo infantry in Yizhou who were isolated in Hebei have always been unclear about this. Later, they accepted the titles of Yanwang County Prince, Yanmen Jiedu, and other officials who Li Jing asked for him. Li Sizhao, the leader of the generals of Yizhou, immediately accepted Li Jing's proposal, accepted the titles of Datong Jiedu and Datong County Prince who Li Jing asked for him to be granted to him by the court, and withdrew from Yizhou and handed over Yizhou to Li Jing.

Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao, both of them were adopted sons of the King of Jin. Li Siyuan was originally the commander of the Fan Han horse and infantry army, and Li Sizhao was originally the commander of the Yanei. Li Siyuan also served as the commander of the Hengchong headquarters, and Li Sizhao also served as the commander of the Tielin Army. Both of them were rare talents among Shatuo's young generation.

But now, there have been news that the King of Jin died in battle outside. Although the King of Jin has a son, he is too young. The other brothers were either captured or killed in battle, and no one could inherit his throne. The ones who have the most hope of inheriting the throne of Shatuo are Li Sizhao and Li Siyuan. Now, there is a group behind these two people.

Who will become the new King Shatuo has always been the most sensitive topic in this period.

There are no two tigers in one mountain, and the Shatuo clan cannot have two kings. Only one person can win between Li Sizhao and Li Siyuan.

During this southern expedition, Shatuo's 50,000 troops were divided into two parts, and they were not subordinate to each other, which further exacerbated Shatuo's division.

Li Cunzhang was also a veteran of Shatuo. Among Li Keyong's adopted sons, he was even the first to get started. However, Shatuo people will not compete for the throne, but the elders will not be ordered by the elders, just like Li Keyong has a biological child, but no one will support them in inheriting the throne now. Shatuo's situation is not good, and Shatuo needs a prestigious and capable person to lead Shatuo.

Privately, he felt that Li Siyuan was actually slightly stronger than Li Sizhao. Especially this time, Li Siyuan led his troops to defeat the three Datong divisions and seized the dazzling record of the two states of Yunshuo in Datong, which made him win a lot of extra points. However, now that he is in Li Sizhao's camp, his butt determines his head.

Perhaps Li Siyuan wanted to avoid internal strife and split, and hoped to win over the generals of the Shatuo Army in Yizhou in this way. After all, among the tens of thousands of Yizhou soldiers, the one who can really speak is generals at all levels, especially senior generals like him.

Should he hand over the letter to Li Sizhao to prove that he and him are firmly on the side?

He pinched his chin uneasily. He had a big beard. He cherished his beard very much. He often repaired it. Even when it was cold, he had to wear a beard condom and did not forget to protect him when he was sleeping. Li Cunzhang's personality was a bit indecisive. Otherwise, with his qualifications as the seven generals of Yunzhong, he would not have been under Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao now. Moreover, he was a little too fond of feathers, and he was afraid of tigers and wolves when he was doing things. Several times before, Li Keyong had given him the opportunity to lead troops alone to block one side, but every time he messed up the matter.

"It must be Li Siyuan who is trying to win over the troops."

Li Cunzhang secretly speculated. However, Li Siyuan did not participate in the Hedong Alliance that went south this time. The commander of the Yanmen Shatuo Army was Li Cunjin, who was also the adopted son of the King of Jin, but his prestige in the army was far inferior to him. The Yanmen Army now lacked generals. In addition to Li Siyuan, the generals with the titles below were Li Cunjin, Cheng Huaiyi and others. Cheng Huaiyi was guarding Taixi Pass, and Li Siyuan personally took charge of Yunzhou.

"The people of King Shatuo, please go to Fenglin Valley tonight."

But could this be Li Sizhao's test?

Although Li Sizhao was very short, he should never be underestimated. Every time he charged in the battle formation, this short guy always rushed to the front line bravely. And like Li Siyuan, he was very calm and had strong restraint. He originally loved drinking, but once the King of Jin said that drinking could easily make things happen and asked him to drink less. As a result, he simply quit and never drank again.

Although the relationship between Li Sizhao and Li Siyuan is actually the best among the adopted sons of King Jin. However, for Shatuo's throne, brothers can turn against each other, let alone just righteous brothers.

Perhaps this is a trap carefully arranged to test the reactions of the generals. To be honest, among the generals of Yizhou, it seems that he is the one who can really threaten Li Sizhao. Other generals, such as Li Sien and Li Siben, are far less prestige than Li Sizhao. If he really went to Fenglin Valley, would he find Li Sizhao sitting quietly in the valley, holding the wolf-toothed sword in his hand, squinting his little eyes, waiting for him to fall into the trap? On both sides of the valley, there may be five hundred swords, axemen or archers?

"The people of King Shatuo, please go to Fenglin Valley tonight."

There was a sound of footsteps, and he quickly stuffed the letter into his armor and patted it again. Fortunately, only a civilian from the auxiliary barracks came in. "What's the matter?" he asked loudly.

"Can the general use a horse tonight?"

"Well, you prepare your horse first and feed more food. I may have to patrol the night in the evening." In fact, he didn't have to be on duty tonight, but he still said it. Maybe he still wanted to go to Fenglin Valley in his heart.

"OK."

Li Cunzhang suddenly looked at the civilian husband with some suspicion. Why haven't he seen this person before? Was it a letter he sent? Or was he the person sent by Li Sizhao to monitor him? I heard that many vassal states now have such spies, such as the Qin King Li Jing, who has a special supervision department. It is said that there are as many as nine bureaus below, divided into categories and performed their duties. There are also Chazi in Huainan Town, the seeker in Xichuan Town, etc. Maybe this person is Li Sizhao's spy, or he is directly the person sent by Siyuan.

Did he find the letter?

Could it be that he put the letter under his pillow? It is unlikely that this civilian man seemed honest and could not leave the secret letter to such a person. In fact, Li Cunzhang had never seen this person before, but he felt that he seemed familiar.

After the civilian bent down and fired, Li Cunzhang kept standing behind the curtain and looking at him away. This man looked at him without any suspicion on the surface, but he always felt that his eyes when he left were a bit special. I guess he was in a hurry to go back and report to Li Cunjin, or in a hurry to report to Li Sizhao.

Suddenly, he firmly believed that this civilian must be a spy.

After being alone, he immediately took out the letter paper and threw it into the brazier, watching the parchment curled and charred, and finally turned into white ashes, which rose and shattered into ashes.

"The people of King Shatuo, please go to Fenglin Valley tonight."

He moved to the curtain and saw a team of Shatuo cavalry outside the tent riding horses slowly. The knights on the horse were wearing black armor, golden dyed by the yellow sunlight. Further ahead of the cavalry, there was a wilderness. Through the wilderness, the shadows of the other side were moving, and there was the Shatuo military camp in Yanmen Town.

But Maple Forest Valley is in the south, which is located directly south of the two camps, almost the same distance from both sides.

Suddenly, the figure of the civilian husband appeared in Li Cunzhang's mind again. However, this time, this civilian husband was not wearing a short brown robe in his mind, but a set of black iron armor, a layer of black chain armor, a black horned iron helmet, a war horse wearing a black vest, and a black scimitar in his hand.

He couldn't remember his name, but in his mind, the images of the civilian and the black crow soldier were becoming more and more overlapping, until they were perfectly overlapped.

This civilian indeed had a problem. He was actually a Black Crow Army.

After discovering the other party's true identity, Li Cunzhang did not feel happy at all.

On the contrary, he was completely in a state of even more confusion.

Li Siyuan's personal guards were the Hengchongdu, while Li Sizhao's personal guards were the Tielin Army.

Their personal soldiers were not Black Crow soldiers, and in fact, neither of them had commanded the Black Crow soldiers, because the Black Crow soldiers had always been Li Keyong's tooth soldiers. Even when Li Sizhao was the commander of the Yanei, he never commanded this army.

Even until Li Keyong died in battle, neither Li Sizhao nor Li Siyuan inherited this army.

Although Yanmen Town and Datong Town have rebuilt a Crow Army, it is not the original one.

The original Crow Army suffered heavy casualties in several battles. Finally, in the Battle of Zhigu Pass, the last three thousand Crow Army disappeared with Li Keyong.

The black crow soldier who suddenly appeared disguised as a civilian, he was definitely a real crow army, not any of the troops formed by Li Sizhao and Li Siyuan.

A thought suddenly came to Li Cunzhang's heart. Could it be that the black crow soldier was following the King of Jin? The King of Shatu, among the people of King Shatu in the letter, represents the King of Jin? Could it be that King Li Keyong of Jin has not died yet. Not only did he not die, he suddenly appeared here and secretly contacted himself?

He leaned against the shield, his mind was upset.

Who is waiting for him in Maple Forest Valley?
