Chapter 308
Inside Xitang City. Prompted by the Dark Arrow staff, Li Dan decided to go to the palace that night to find Li Hong and look for an opportunity to steal the sign. There was no speech during the day, and that night, Li Dan went to the palace as planned.
He is the prince of Zhen State, and entering and leaving the palace is the same as returning to his own home. He inquired about the mistress below and learned that Li Hong had not slept yet and was still in the study. He turned his mind first and went to the dining room to let the maid inside prepare some dishes that Li Hong liked to eat, and then He prepared a few pots of good wine, and he took them to the study.
Hearing that Li Dan is here, Li Hong is not surprised. Even if he does not come, Li Hong plans to send someone to find him.
The current situation is not very optimistic about Zhen Guo. Millions of enemies besieged Xitang. Once they break the city, not only will they die, but Zhen Guo will also be destroyed. There are many things that he still needs to explain to Li Dan. To fight for his own life, he also had to cover Li Dan to break out, leaving a bloodline for the royal family of Zhen State, so that Zhen State could be maintained.
He made Li Dan come in. The latter entered the study, first saluted, then stepped forward, slowly put the tray with wine and dishes on the table, and whispered, "I heard that the father and the king have not rested, and the son-in-law deliberately prepared him. Some wine. "
Li Hong smiled, beckoned to Li Dan, and let him sit beside him. Li Hong has a total of twenty-four sons. His favorite is his eldest son, Li Dan. The latter did not disappoint him. He has been smart and savvy since childhood, and has a good knowledge of ancient and modern times. Everyone deceives people for their loyalty and kindness.
"Daner entered the palace late at night, but something happened to find his father?"
"I was worried that my father would work for the state, so he came here to visit me." He said, placing the wine and dishes on the tray one by one on the table, and he said, "These are what my father likes to eat, and my sons and daughters accompany me. Father eats a bar! "
"Okay!" Li Hong nodded with a smile, but looking at the dishes on the table, he had no appetite.
He picked up Li Dan's full glass and raised his head to drink the wine in the glass. Then he drank again and drank three drinks before stopping. He asked Li Dan: "Daner, do you think we can hold the capital this time?"
That's too difficult, there is almost no chance of success!
Li Dan thought so, but he didn't dare to say so. He said with a smile: "The father and king don't have to worry. The capital city is solid and there are more than 300,000 elite soldiers guarding it. Even if there are millions of enemy troops, it is not easy to break the capital."
Li Hong smiled bitterly in his heart and said, "It is difficult for the coalition forces to capture the capital for a while and a half, but what if we use the strategy of siege without attack?"
Zhen Guo ’s food reserves have always been small. Even in the capital ’s western capital, the city ’s food is only enough for March. By the end of March, the city ’s grain will be out of food. dead.
Why doesn't Li Dan understand this? He said with a smile, "Father and King don't forget, there are still hundreds of thousands of troops in the west of China. As long as the Central Army in the west rescues the capital, the coalition will undoubtedly lose."
Li Hong shook his head and said with anxiety, "Father Wang is afraid that the Central Army in the west will not return to the capital, and will be intercepted by the Sichuan-Moscow Army halfway!"
The coalition is not only the wave outside Xitang City, but also a wave of hundreds of thousands of troops from Sichuan and Mozambique. This is why Li Dan believes that the capital is difficult to preserve.
Upon hearing his father's words, Li Dan's eyes turned and he realized that the opportunity was coming. He said, "My son thinks that the enemy is strong and we are weak, so we must not fight against the enemy. The enemy has logistics to supplement the grass. Now The capital is a lonely city that is trapped. Therefore, the war must not be dragged on for too long. For the time being, there is only one way to do it. Now that the coalition forces are not stable outside the city, we use the night attack strategy! "
Speaking, he stood up, took two steps backwards, and then kneeled on one knee, stepped in and said, "Father, son and son would like to lead a death squad, and tonight, they would attack the enemy camp unexpectedly and unprepared. This battle, My son is confident that he can succeed in one hit! "
Li Dan was able to sit in the Prince's position for so long, safe and sound, and his mind was not simple.
He was also worried that once he had stolen the token, if things were revealed or the city gates were not opened, he would not be able to account for the past. Even if he was a prince, he was incapable of defending against the enemy, and now he took the initiative to ask him to fight. The token naturally arrived smoothly. If he refused, he would steal it again, even if he was exposed, and he would not have to be afraid. He could use his excuse to attack the enemy camp out of the city as an excuse. Although the means were intended to deceive the monarch, his intention was good. It is because of loyalty to serve the country, the father and king will not blame himself, and the ministers can not impeach him. It can be said that he seems to be temporarily raised, please fight, but it is a well-thought-out, two-pronged solution, and it is for him to do next Order an insurance in advance.
Li Dan is indeed very smart, but unfortunately his intelligence was not used to deal with coalition forces, but was used in his father.
Li Hong is a rough man, how can I know what kind of ghost idea Li Dan is working on.
After hearing that he was willing to attack the enemy camp in person, Li Hong was very touched. Many people say that although Li Dan is talented, but his force is too weak, and his temperament is also cowardly of scholars. However, when the enemy is today, Li Dan is willing to fight the enemy regardless of the danger of his life. Did it? With a relieved smile on Li Hong's face, he stood up and pulled Li Dan up and said meaningfully: "How can Daner be a dignified prince, a future king, and he will be charged?"
"But--" Li Dan's rejection of Li Hong's rejection was as expected, but he still acted unwillingly.
Li Hong waved his hand and said, "No need to say, tonight, you can't go anywhere, just stay in the palace and drink with your father and king, and our father and son haven't had drinks at the same table for a long time."
Li Danxiang sighed with great disappointment, and then pushed down the boat and said, "Okay!" He then raised his glass with both hands and said, "King Chen respects the father!"
Li Hong did not hesitate to drink the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass.
His father and son pushed for a cup to change a cup, and soon drank the pots of wine brought by Li Dan. Without Li Dan's mouth, Li Hongxing, who has a rare temperament for a few days, got up and made people drink a few pots of spirits and continued to drink with Li Dan.
In fact, Li Hong's alcohol is good, but because of the depression in his heart, he was drunk quickly. When he and Li Dan drank the sixth pot of wine, people began to sit still on the collapse, and their bodies were constantly shaking. More}} new ω. Dazzling, drunk, hazy, dull eyes, and a big tongue when talking.
"Daner ... The father feels this time ... I am afraid that he will not be able to escape ... Fighting for his father's life ... Not afraid of death ... The mountainous corpse on the battlefield has long been the father, and the father is the most It's you who don't worry, but you don't have to be afraid. Before the coalition forces break through the city, your father will find a way to cover you out of the siege and revive my heroic power in the future ... "
The so-called spit truth. Li Hong's words moved Li Dan abnormally and became more determined. He must not defeat the coalition forces. Surrender is the only way out. Only in this way can he save the country and only in this way can he save his father. At that time, he was also willing to go on behalf of his father, and his father died.
"Father, you are drunk, and your son and daughter will take you back to the dorm to rest!" After speaking, Li Dan lifted Li Hongzhang and walked outside the study. The court ladies and guards on the left and right wanted to come forward to help, Li Dan glared at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "You all get away!"
He is a prince, so how dare he offend one by one, his head frightened, and he kept back. Li Dan helped Li Hong to walk to the palace. The maid and the guards followed at a distance. There was almost no need to cover his movements deliberately. Li Dan just scratched his father's waist and took the token hanging on the jade belt into his hands, and then carried it naturally into his arms. Not to mention that the maid and the guard behind did not see his little movement, even if they saw it, no one dared to say more than half a word.
Li Hong was also unaware, and said ambiguously as he walked: "Daner ... has made up his mind for his father ... would rather die than wait for death! For his father to leave the city and fight the enemy ... , Also intends to send two generals, Gauss and Lin Ning to you to break through. Both of them are shoguns of one thousand miles, the main force to contain the enemy for your father, it is not difficult for you to break out from the other side ... "
"Yes, yes, yes! Father Wang said yes!" Li Dan nodded repeatedly and agreed.
Sending Li Hong back to the palace, Li Dan subconsciously touched the token in his arms, and then took a deep breath, striding out of the palace.
When he was out of the palace and took a carriage, he immediately rushed back to his father's residence. At this time, more than a dozen generals of Zhen State dressed in armor, EbookFREE.me, were gathered in the lobby of the Prince's House. These generals belonged to the princeling party and were all confidants of Li Dan.
They were very clear about Li Dan's plan, and people were restless in the lobby, waiting anxiously. People's moods are very complicated now, that is, I hope Li Dan succeeds, and he hopes that he will not succeed.
No one is not afraid of death, and the Zhen people are no exception. With the current situation of Zhen State, there is only one dead end for the hard battle with the coalition forces. These princeling generals do not want to fight with the coalition forces anymore, and finally make Li Hong's funeral. .
However, Kaicheng welcomes the coalition forces to enter the city is risky, and it is still a great risk. Success is okay. Once it fails, not only the lives of the family and the young and old can not be guaranteed. Even if they die, they will fall into the infamy and become the state of Zhen. sinner.
This is a gambling step by step heaven and hell, people can understand the tension and complexity of emotions.
Hearing the report from Gongzifu's servants, the son returned, and the generals were shocked. They stood up in unison and looked out of the hall with all eyes.
With the rapid footsteps coming, Li Dan quickly walked into the lobby. When they saw him, the generals asked in unison: "Have you got the token?"
