Chapter 590 Dare to gamble?

Li Xin doesn't know much about these people from Taiyi Palace in Zhongnan Mountain. He needs to send someone to confirm whether these people are serious Taoist priests in order to carry out the next cooperation.

However, at present, Li Xin is very urgently needed the medicinal materials in these people's hands. Even if it is a temporary solution, it will not harm Li Xin if he agrees for the time being.

So he agreed.

After agreeing to this old Taoist priest, Li Xin threw him to Zhao Jia for handling, and asked Zhao Jia to be responsible for connecting with the people from Taiyi Palace, and then set off by himself and headed for Jincheng.

At this time, Ye Mao and others set off for a day and a half. Li Xin rushed to Jincheng at this time and could barely catch up with their large army.

Zhao Jia sent Li Xin all the way to the gate of Mianzhu, and then lowered his head cautiously and said, "Marty, what if these Taoist priests...what if... sent by that one?"

The one he was talking about refers to the emperor.

Li Xin smiled silently and said, "Brother You'an, don't worry. Even if it was sent by the superiors, I and I heard from you that it was just a temporary solution to treat the wounded soldiers. I had to use the name of Chunyang Zhenren. Chunyang Zhenren is kind and lively, so I definitely don't mind that we will accept a junior brother in his name."

"I will send someone to Zhongnan Mountain to verify these so-called Taiyi Palace people. Now Brother You'an only needs to keep an eye on them and let them treat the slandered soldiers in the city. Brother You'an doesn't have to worry about other things."

Zhao Jia nodded and said, "Sir, obey the order."

Li Xin turned over and left with dozens of personal guards.

County Magistrate Zhao looked back at the old Taoist Ichiyoko who was smiling behind him and took a deep breath.

"Old Taoist Master, where is your disciple?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, please let them come over immediately."

…………………

Ye Mao left for a day before Li Xin, and Li Xin was held back by this old Taoist priest for a long time. By the time he set off, it was almost noon. Fortunately, their group was light and fast, and Ye Mao's troops were basically infantrymen. Li Xin had been traveling for a day and had already met with Ye Mao by the afternoon of the next day.

The young master came over enthusiastically and welcomed Li Xin into the coach's tent. After Li Xin entered the coach's tent, he sat in the main seat and asked Ye Mao, "How far is it from Jincheng?"

Ye Mao lowered his head and estimated it for a while, and said, "It looks like sixty or seventy miles away. By this evening, he will be able to advance to twenty miles near Jincheng."

Li Xin waved his hand and said, "Don't go forward for now, just stop here and set up a camp."

Ye Mao hesitated for a moment and said, "General, it's afternoon now. We'll walk faster. We can reach the vicinity of Jincheng when it's dark. There's no need to delay another day..."

Marquis Jing'an frowned slightly.

"If you ask you to go, you will go. No one can tell what the situation in Jincheng is now. We will rashly go to Jincheng. If they set up an ambush, we will not even have time to react."

Ye Mao nodded, bent over and clasped his fists: "I'll arrange to camp here."

When he was about to retreat, Li Xin suddenly called him.

"Ye Mao, do you believe it or not?"

The young master smiled honestly: "What is the uncle said? What is the uncle said along the way? Where can my nephew not believe in the uncle?"

Li Xin nodded and said in a deep voice: "It's good if you believe me. If we enter Jincheng, you can do whatever I say. Don't have any doubts. If there is something I can't figure out, I'll explain it to you when the war in the southwest is over. I'll explain it to you. Is it okay?"

Ye Mao looked up at Li Xin.

He lowered his eyebrows and said, "My uncle's words, my nephew has recorded them."

Marquis Jing'an took a deep breath, stepped forward and patted the big guy's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "If you believe me, I will not harm you. If you don't want to believe me in all, then this time the attack on Jincheng will be my own command. What should I do? You can choose your own choice."

Ye Mao did not hesitate. He smiled and said, "Uncle Master's words are so strange. Before coming, my father and grandfather told me to explain to me. No matter what happens along the way, I will listen to Uncle Master's uncle. Even if I enter Jincheng, Uncle Master asked me to let Li Shen go, I wouldn't have anything to say."

Li Xin nodded.

"Don't worry about this. If I catch Li Shen, I will not shelter him. I will naturally escort him to the capital for a crime."

"Okay, these are all enough to break the city. You can go down and arrange camping first."

Ye Mao bowed his head deeply and bent down and retreated.

Li Xin sat in the main seat of the handsome tent and slowly closed his eyes.

Originally, he didn't need to tell Ye Mao about this, because as long as Jincheng broke into the city and if there was a Pingnan Army not transferred out, it would be Li Shen's problem rather than Li Xin's problem. At that time, as long as the Pingnan Army in Jincheng would be captured together.

However, Li Xin wanted to lie about the number of "killing enemies". This operation can be hidden from anyone, but it cannot be hidden from Ye Mao, who is on the front line. If Ye Mao starts to make trouble because of this, everyone will be even more irritating.

So Li Xin had to talk to his junior nephew in advance to avoid being unable to get through at that time.

As for the others in the Imperial Guard, there is no need to say hello.

Those middle and lower-class people had no way of knowing how many Pingnan Army had killed in the entire army. Even if they felt something was wrong, they would not say much.

No one doesn't want to make a lot of military achievements for no reason.

So, the 20,000 imperial guards under Li Xin's troops set up camps sixty or seventy miles away from Jincheng. At the same time, the "rebel army" in Hanzhou had also moved to the vicinity of Mianzhu, and together with Li Xin, formed a siege of Jincheng.

That night, a middle-aged man quietly entered the camp of the imperial guards under Li Xin's army.

Marquis Jing'an personally welcomed him and gave the junior greeting to the middle-aged man.

"Uncle Mu is here in person."

Mu Ying, the head of the Mu family, quickly returned the favor to Li Xin and said, "You are polite to me, Marquis."

Li Xin smiled and welcomed him into the handsome tent, poured him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"Uncle Mu, are all my brother Mu's people in place?"

Mu Qing lowered his head and took the tea handed over by Li Xin and said in a deep voice: "If you come back to the Marquis, Mu Ying has arrived at the designated position of the Marquis and will always be able to listen to the Marquis' orders."

Li Xin nodded and said straight to the point.

"You're welcome. Tomorrow morning, Brother Mu will lead the Hanzhou rebel army from the west gate of Jincheng, and our imperial guards will support us at the east gate."

Marquis Jing'an said in a deep voice: "From tomorrow, the Hanzhou rebel army will have to attack at least three days, and then I will replace the imperial guards to attack Jincheng, Uncle Mu, are there any problems?"

When Li Xin said these words, he kept looking at Mu Qing's face.

Although the head of the Mu family looked a little unfavorable, he didn't say anything in the end. He just lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Our Hanzhou army can naturally lead the attack. In order to show his loyalty, it doesn't matter if he dies at all. However, if the Marquis asks our Hanzhou army to attack Jincheng first, I'm afraid there will be some objections in our army."

Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and said, "Uncle Mu, Jincheng may be an empty city now."

"The Hanzhou rebel army is the main attacker. I can state in the memorial that the Pingnan Army of Jincheng was killed by the Hanzhou rebel army tens of thousands! What is in front of you is the rewarding merit!"

The Marquis Jing'an's voice was low.

"At that time, it is not impossible for Brother Mu to be a marquis."
