Chapter 663: Prepare with both hands
After sorting out the information obtained in my mind, the most critical point at the moment is the 7,000 troops on the opposite side that have been recruited.
[For me, the best result would be that something happens to the opponent during the process of recruiting these 7,000 troops. If the opponent successfully recruits 7,000 troops and even launches an offensive towards me, Then the risk I need to bear becomes greater. 】
Of course he can choose to pull up the skeleton behemoth army as he did before, and rely on the number of armored dragon skeletons to intimidate the opponent.
But this move has been used in previous battles, and it is no longer a secret.
Under this premise, since the other party has made the decision to assemble an army of 10,000, they must have made corresponding psychological preparations.
When the army sieges the city, the battle will definitely not end immediately. There are not enough troops stationed in the city, and the actual killing efficiency of the skeleton beasts is relatively limited.
The most important thing is that after a large-scale manipulation, the power of his mantra will be consumed greatly. If the siege army on the opposite side adopts siege for consecutive days, then the yellow sand city will most likely be defended. Can't live.
Faced with such a situation, it is wrong to focus on resisting the siege of 10,000 siege troops. The key point is to kill the opponent's plan directly at the step of recruiting 7,000 troops. to fundamentally solve the problem of an army of 10,000 attacking Huangsha City.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu’s eyes fixed.
"If he doesn't mess up, then I'll let him mess up!"
As he spoke, Zhou Xu's eyes fell on Jie Liancheng.
"Lao Jie, since the other party asked you to perform a reconnaissance mission here, you might as well just hang around for a while, and then find an opportunity. I will give you my own person, and you can find a way to take it back. You don't need to stay here. I just need to throw him into the city, can that be done?"
In this regard, Xie Liancheng nodded after thinking about it for a while.
“I’m afraid it’s not easy to stay with me all the time, but if you just want to throw someone into the city, I don’t think it’s a big problem.”
"Okay, let's settle this matter first. This is my No. 1 plan. Now let's talk about Plan No. 2."
Zhou Xu always likes to be prepared, no matter whether it is useful or not, he likes to do everything possible. Be prepared with as many hands as possible.
“What is Plan No. 2?”
“Kill Yan Sheng.”
To cause chaos in the opponent’s country, it is true that it can be done without killing Yan Sheng, but it is impossible Denying it, killing Yan Sheng is the most direct way.
"How to kill? Shall I go?"
Xie Liancheng had a headache. In their simple discussion just now, they had clearly realized that it was not easy to kill this guy.
Hearing Xie Liancheng's words at this time, Zhou Xu shook his head again.
"Although you are strong, you are not a good choice."
"How to say?"
According to Xie Liancheng's idea, if he couldn't kill Yan Sheng, then who else could?
Zhou Xu, who roughly understood Liancheng’s thoughts, showed great patience at this moment.
“A person’s energy is limited. He cannot be vigilant about everyone around him anytime and anywhere. His spirit must relax. And if you want to do this, just You have to distinguish between the people who appear around you. "
"You can simply understand it as labeling the people who appear around you as 'threatening' or 'not threatening'."< br>
“And you are too strong, that’s why Yan Sheng is suspicious of you. As long as you come close, or even just show up, he will start to be wary of you and be ready to escape with your life at any time. So you understand, right? ?”
Jie Liancheng was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhou Xu's explanation, and then he suddenly realized.
It’s not like he never thought about finding an opportunity to kill Yan Sheng before, but he never found the opportunity.
Now it seems that the problem actually lies with him.
“So we need a suitable person who can gain the trust of the other party and at least not be suspected by the other party to do this.”
Speaking of this, Zhou Xu’s eyes once again It fell on Jie Liancheng.
Although he can also arrange manpower from his own side and let Xie Liancheng find an opportunity to take him back, and then approach Yan Sheng and wait for the opportunity.
But this operation is undoubtedly too time-consuming. It would be great if there were some suitable candidates ready to use.
At this moment, Jie Liancheng naturally understood the meaning of Zhou Xu's words.
He's just not good at thinking about these things, but he can still react when Zhou Xu has already said it.
"There seems to be a candidate like this, but I don't know if he can do it." Considering these requirements, Xie Liancheng spoke slowly after thinking about it for a while, with a hint of emotion in his tone. hesitate.
“Tell me and listen.”
“Beside Yan Sheng, there is a guy named Li Wenjian. He is also a time traveler. Like me, he was summoned by Yan Sheng.”
Hearing this, Zhou Xu raised his eyebrows slightly.
Although I didn’t want to interrupt Xie Liancheng’s words, I couldn’t suppress my curiosity and asked...
"How many time travelers did Yan Sheng summon? Is the summoning altar still there?"
Faced with this question, Xie Liancheng counted on his fingers.
"Including myself, I know a total of four, and the altar seems to be gone."
"Will other time travelers pose an obstacle to us?"
"Probably not. We basically do our own things and rarely interact with each other on weekdays. In other words, we don't dare to interact with each other. After all, we all have special identities and we are afraid of being jealous by Yan Sheng. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Xu nodded. After having a rough idea in his mind, he had no intention of continuing to ask further questions.
“Let’s continue talking about Li Wenjian.”
“Okay, if we want to say who is closest to Yan Sheng and who wants to kill him the most, I’m afraid it’s Li Wenjian.”
"There must be a reason for this, right?"
Zhou Xu asked as he took off the water bag from his waist and drank some water. After chatting for so long, he was also thirsty.
During this period, Xie Liancheng didn't think much and directly stated the reason.
“Because Yan Sheng castrated him.”
“Pfft——”
The water he just drank into his mouth was squirted clean on the spot.
“Cough cough cough cough!!”
Following a violent cough, Zhou Xu wiped the corners of his mouth.
“Let me ask, what happened?”
“We won the battle before and annexed various countries. While Yan Sheng proclaimed himself the first emperor, he held a riot in the palace. At the banquet, the guy drank too much and said, 'You dare to build a country with just such a small amount of land, and you are so ridiculous that you are going to die!' Anyway, that's what it meant."
Here, Xie Liancheng breathed a sigh of relief.
“When Yan Sheng heard these words, he was naturally furious. He directly sent the imperial army and planned to arrest Li Wenjian for questioning. Guess what happened?”
"What's going on?"
"When the imperial army caught him, he was teasing the concubine in the harem and preparing to rape her."
"..."
"Yan Sheng That kind of temper will be retaliated. Just based on what he said before, Li Wenjian couldn't even hope for a good harvest, let alone touch his woman. In the end, although he didn't chop off his head, he was castrated. "
As Xie Liancheng spoke, he made a knife-wielding gesture with his palm.
"Speaking of it, this is worse than just cutting him."
"Since then, I heard that Yan Sheng took him directly with him, and if he had any trouble, he would punch and kick Li Wenjian. , tortured him in various ways, and even asked Li Wenjian to stand by and humiliate him during that time. Anyway, I think it is quite perverted, so Li Wenjian must hate him to death, but..."
Xie Liancheng changed the subject.
"You'd better not have too much expectations for Li Wenjian. When that guy was first summoned, I thought he was full of nonsense, pretending to know everything, and likes to give advice. Fengyun, what he said made sense, but actually it made no sense."
"After a while, everyone understood that he was just a useless keyboard warrior, so Yan Sheng castrated him. So simple, and at the same time not afraid of him at all, but kept him by his side to torture him. After that, he would have been beaten into a slave. He must be hated, but Li Wenjian may not have the courage to do that. "
