Chapter 856: Old Qin's Inheritance Problem (Fixed Last Night)(1/2)
The Xia army's cavalry swept over and was in a vast way, along the Liaoxi Corridor, preparing to seize Liucheng first and seize a teleportation array to gain a foothold east of Liaoxi County.
News from all over the Han Empire flowed into Chu Tian’s hands.
After Chu Tian agreed to Sun Jian's conditions, Sun Jian indeed lifted the siege of Hefei City and led the navy to go and attack Jiangling.
The Jiangdong Army came and went smoothly with the natural chasm of the Yangtze River, and the Xia army had no choice but to deal with the Jiangdong Army.
Unless the Fubo Legion is transferred to the Yangtze River Basin, it is possible to sanction Sun Jian.
Chu Tian knew that the Jiangdong army was seizing tigers against Jingzhou, but it was difficult to use troops against Jiangdong and Jingzhou.
If Sun Jian doesn't come to harass Hefei, Chu Tian has no choice but to ask for it.
The situation in the Southern Barbarians in Hanzhong is not very good either.
Yang Su actually has a legendary assassin going to leave.
If you want to leave the limit, you will take away the player lord Liu An who has been active in Yizhou for several years, and he will be killed by Liu An's legion.
Chu Tian has never seen a legendary assassin so far.
The legendary assassin refers to the famous historical assassin such as Jing Ke, Yaoli, Nie Zheng, Yu Rang, and Zhuang Zhu, and is not a free player.
There are very few free players who are professions assassins, but these assassins have less and less room for play because the small lord has disappeared and the large lord is not easy to assassinate.
So no one wants to be an assassin now.
The legendary assassin has the probability of assassinating the great lord because they have the characteristics of "hiddenness" and have high personal force.
When fighting on the battlefield, their force will decline. Only by assassination and fighting alone can their force be exerted.
The Chutian power actually has similar talents, that is, the Sword Saint Li Bai.
Li Bai has more than 90 military power in private, but if he is allowed to fight to kill the enemy, his military power will decrease.
The force of the knight, the assassin, and the general may be the same, but the purpose is completely different.
The general led a team of troops to launch an attack, and the knights and assassins would be easily slaughtered.
Assassin may assassinate enemy generals or monarchs and reverse the situation by means outside the battlefield.
Liu An's death taught Chu Tian a lesson.
He had Dian Wei as his guard, and probably few legendary assassins could get close to him. Usually Chu Tian was with a group of wives and concubines, Mulan, Joan of Arc, and Xiao Chuo had both force, while Xia Tianliang, Roufu Emperor and Huo Qing were weak, but Xia Tianliang had Li Xiuning as his guard. Roufu Emperor lived in the Xia Palace all year round, and Huo Qing had a team of guards from the Western Regions Protectorate Mansion, so Chu Tian was still quite safe.
This does not mean there is no chance at all.
The legendary assassin's assassin is often unexpected, so it is called the legendary assassin.
Zhuan Zhu assassinated King Liao of Wu and presented his dagger in the fish's belly.
Li must stab Qingji, adopt a bitter plan to kill his wife and live in a disabled body, pretend to join Qingji, and then assassinate him.
Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, and the picture was revealed.
Yu Rang stabs Zhao Xiangzi and swallows charcoal when he paints his body.
Among the legendary assassins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, only Nie Zheng directly entered the Korean Prime Minister's Mansion and forcibly assassinated Han Xiangxialai in front of everyone.
Of course, the fate of all assassins, whether successful or failed in the assassination, is basically a dead end.
Chu Tian must consider increasing the candidates for escorts, and his status forced him to be cautious.
"In addition to Dian Wei, Taishici, Wanyan Chen Monk, and King Arthur took turns to lead the Qixue Army, Zhongxiao Army, and the Round Table Knights as the head of the guards. In addition, Mi Fang's five Northern Army schools were stationed on the left and right, and the five Northern Army tiger generals Mi Fang, Xing Daorong, Wu'anguo, Chunyu Qiong, Lu Kuang, and Lu Xiang took turns to patrol..."
Chu Tian formed a three-level guard system. The first layer is the unreliable Five Northern Army Clans, the second layer is the Qixue Army, the Zhongxiao Army, and the Round Table Knights. Each soldier is equivalent to a low-level general. Any assassin can be killed if he is discovered. The third layer is the Tiger Guard. When Chu Tian went to war, the Tiger Guards were basically inseparable.
In addition to Dian Wei, Chu Tian also wanted to recruit another special guard.
Zhao Yun, Xue Rengui, King Arthur and others are all competent, but they are too overused.
"Yuchi Gong and Cheng Yaojin's Xuanjia Army are taking turns day and night with the Tiger Guard."
Chu Tian incorporated Xuanjia Army into the list of guards.
No matter how strong Dian Wei is, he still needs to rest, so he needs a personal bodyguard to replace Dian Wei.
Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin, and Xuanjia Army, were stronger and stronger than Dian Wei and Tiger Guards.
After all, the Xuanjia Army was an elite cavalry of Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin.
Such defenses are almost impossible to assassin even if he is a legendary assassin.
Although the Five Northern Army Schools led by Mi Fang are very mediocre, they can already deal with assassinations in most cases. The assassins have to cross the second and third lines of defense.
Chu Tian's force is not low either.
So no one would attack Chu Tian in this way and win because the probability of success is too low.
The Xia army, which stretched for hundreds of miles, arrived at Liucheng one after another, besieging the Xianbei people and the Wuhuan people to the death.
As for the strong attack or long-term siege, Chu Tian has not decided yet.
The flags of the Xia army were roaring, which made Murong Ke and Murong Ba, who were responsible for defending the city, feel awe.
The Xia army chased each other reluctantly and came from thousands of miles away.
The high-level troops in Liucheng are still being recruited, and the troops cannot be replenished for a while.
I'm afraid even if the high-level troops of Liucheng were recruited, the Xia army would add high-level troops from the Central Plains.
The source and equipment of high-level troops are also a problem.
Hedong County, Puban City, and Wu Qi attacked this city, and Wang Jian defended it with his strong city walls.
However, Wu Qi's legion morale was maintained and he continued to attack Puban City, and he was about to seize this important stronghold east of the Yellow River.
Xiangyang cannons continued to bombard Puban City, siege the city tower, and rush into battle, and Wang Jian seemed to be very laborious.
Yue Fei's army and the Invincible Legion were attacking Yinchuan City and eroding Lao Qin's forces.
Puban City and Yinchuan City are both important cities, and it is impossible for the Qin army to not save it.
Lao Qin returned to Guanzhong and sent troops to support Puban City and Yinchuan City, delaying time.
The Qin army was waiting for Lao Qin's condition to improve, but for a moment he was unwilling to fight and was suppressed by Wu Qi and Yue Fei in two groups of troops.
The monarch is in danger of peace, and all the generals have their own thoughts and are not interested in fighting.
Only Wang Jian and Li Ji were fighting seriously.
"It seems that something is not good..."
Jia Xu saw that doctors kept coming in and out of Lao Qin's mansion in Xianyang City, and it seemed that Lao Qin's physical condition was deteriorating.
"If the lord cannot survive this disaster and no one can inherit the foundation of Guanzhong, Wu Qi and Yue Fei from outside are coming in full force, I am afraid that Guanzhong will become a wedding dress for others."
A civil official appeared beside Jia Xu.
Li Si, a civil servant who served Lao Qin very early, was one of the two major civil servants of Lao Qin, just like Xun Yu.
Xun Yu was mainly responsible for maintaining the operation of the Han court, while Li Si was more like Lao Qin's confidant minister, while Jia Xu was Lao Qin's confidant adviser.
Both of them realized that Lao Qin might not be able to improve.
After all, Lao Qin is old and even a terminal illness that is useless to a miracle doctor, the probability of improvement is not high.
"Who would have thought that in this way, he would lose the qualification to compete in the Central Plains..."
Jia Xu felt a little sad.
He assisted Lao Qin, who was in Guanzhong, and helped Lao Qin control the Han court, annex Xiliang, and compete for the Central Plains.
However, Lao Qin did not suffer a great defeat, but only failed in Mangshan, but fell down due to age and physical reasons.
"No, some people have thought of it, that is the lord himself... I guess a few years ago, I knew that I might have suffered an incurable disease."
Jia Xu suddenly thought of Lao Qin's behavior in the past. Sometimes Lao Qin could clearly target Chu Tian, but he didn't do it too much.
When he was expeditioning to the Western Regions, Lao Qin also sent troops, and Chu Tianmu took office, so Lao Qin also gave up the position of the general to Chu Tian.
At these times, Lao Qin could clearly do more ruthlessly.
"What you mean is that the lord knows that he will have such a day. So, what is he doing to compete for the Central Plains?"
Li Si couldn't understand Lao Qin's thoughts.
Even though he knew it would be a decisive end, he still had to try it, which made Li Si a little puzzled.
"Maybe the lord is not sure if he will be surprised. Or maybe he just wants to be king, fight with King Xia, leaving a point, the sun and the moon are passing, and life is as good as..."
Jia Xu seemed to be a little born at this time.
"Wenhe, if the lord has three or two shortcomings, maybe we should find a heir in advance, or ask the lord for the candidate."
Li Si is more concerned about his own interests.
"We... go and ask for the lord..."
Jia Xu had to protect himself at this time.
The battle between the King of Qin and King of Xia has not reached the point of tragic tragedy, so it is not angered by the generals of the Qin army.
Li Si flashed with an inspiration, as if he suddenly thought of a thought: "What if the lord has no queen, why not support the Han emperor? The Han emperor is still the common ruler of the world, and he is young..."
To be continued...
