Sensing the strong killing intent on Li Zhao's body, Yang Zhi persuaded: "Handsome, Chen Zitu is Chen Ran's son-in-law. If he is left behind, he can be used to threaten Chen Ran.

"It's useless, I kind of understand what I just did. Chen Ran is not the emperor after all, and the Qi army will not open the sword gate for him, not to mention that Chen Ran has more than one son.

"There may be other uses in the future, but you can lock him up first, there is no need to kill him so quickly."

Li Zhao said disdainfully: "You overestimate him, he is useless." This man is for his own desires, regardless of the safety of others. Such scum, why should they stay any longer? Killing him can also comfort the souls of the innocent soldiers who died.

Seeing Li Zhao's gloomy face, Yang Zhi didn't dare to persuade him again. After returning from the Sword Gate, he could clearly notice that Li Zhao was in a very bad mood.

After Chen Zitu saw Li Zhao, he hurriedly said: "My father is the assassin of Chengdu, as long as you let me go, I will definitely send someone to send a large sum of money." If you want anything else, I can send someone to bring it to you. "

Oh, is it?" Li Zhao said lightly.

Seeing that Li Zhao couldn't be moved, he said, "If you don't believe it, I can write to my father first." Let him send him a large sum of money and food, as well as other gold, silver and jewelry, what do you think?"

Thinking that Li Zhao was tempted, Chen Zitu's face was happy, "You can find a pen and paper, and I will write a letter now and send it to Chengdu." "

Are you writing with your right hand or your left hand?" asked Li Zhao.

Chen Zitu didn't understand what it meant, and said, "It's the right hand."

"Well, since it's the right hand used, the left hand is useless, so Ben Shuai will help you remove it." Li Zhao said expressionlessly.

The soldiers around him immediately drew their knives, but before Chen Zitu could react, his entire left arm had been cut off.

"Ah..............h Blood poured out of his severed arm, and he felt a sense of fear he had never felt before.

"Ben Shuai has been in Hanzhong for so long, and he has never seen such a selfish person as you. Don't say that your father is the assassin of Chengdu, even if he is the emperor, what can he do? Li Zhao scolded mercilessly.

looked at the soldiers around him: "Chop off all the hands and feet, bury it, and let him experience the pain of others." "

I was too lazy to take care of Chen Zitu anymore, and let the soldiers call Ma Yanbin.

Li Zhao originally did not plan to attack Chengdu, after all, there were nearly 70,000 troops before Shudi. But after this battle, the strength of Shu was hit hard. Moreover, in order to prevent the assassin from rebelling, according to the law of the Qi country, the assassin did not have the right to recruit troops locally. If Chen Ran wants to expand his troops, he needs to obtain the consent of the Qi court. Even if the imperial court agreed, it would not be able to train an elite army in a short period of time.

This means that the next few months will be the weakest time for Shudi's strength.

As the old saying goes, take advantage of your illness to kill you.

Since he could not enter the Jianmen Pass, Li Zhao planned to make a dangerous move and attack Shu from other places.

He carefully looked at the map of Shu in this era, and both the area and location were roughly the same as those in the previous life, but he did not see the name "Yinping". Of course, it may also be that the map in Li Zhao's hand is too rough.

Ma Yanbin was quickly brought and saluted: "I've seen the big handsome."

"Don't be polite, Ben Shuai heard that you planned to die when you were defeated. Why did it come down again in the end, was it because I was afraid of death, or was I worried about my family?

"Don't hide it, I have a wife and three sons in my mansion, and the youngest son was born last year. If I am gone, there will be no one to take care of my wife and children.

Li Zhao nodded, there was no problem with this reason.

"But have you ever thought about how Chen Ran will play Jinling in this defeat? Will he really tell the truth?"

Ma Yanbin thought for a moment, and his face changed suddenly. The answer is obvious, Chen Ran will not tell the truth, because it will involve himself. But there must always be someone to bear the responsibility for the defeat, and the best scapegoat can only be Ma Yanbin, who is the guard of the Sword Gate; Moreover, he was defeated, and he could not defend himself.

Once the court determines that it is Ma Yanbin's fault, his family will be implicated. When Ma Yanbin thought of this, he became more and more anxious.

Li Zhao saw the change in expression on his face, and said, "If you are worried about your wife and children at home, Ben Shuai has a way to help you."

"What's the solution? Ma Yanbin hurriedly said.

Li Zhao looked at him fixedly, and said word by word: "Wave your troops to Chengdu!"

Ma Yanbin's heart was shocked, after all, he had lived in Shu for many years and had deep feelings. And not long after the surrender, he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Zhaowu army.

As if knowing what he was thinking, Li Zhao continued: "Do you think that Qi Guo can still accept you, don't be naïve. The world is big, only Ben Shuai has a place for you here. If Ben Shuai captures the land of Shu, you will not only be able to rescue your wife and children, but you will also have glory and wealth. It has been more than three months since Hanzhong was lost, and Jinling has not yet sent troops to recover it. Is such a court worthy of your continued allegiance? Ben Shuai gave you a stick of incense time, and after thinking about it, he replied to Ben Shuai. Ma

Yanbin's heart is at war with heaven and man, and his longing for his family has the upper hand. It didn't take long for him to resolutely say: "What does the big boss want me to do, just say it bluntly."

"Is there any way to enter

Jianmen Pass?" Ma Yanbin shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I have known Wei Hongyang, the deputy general of Jianmen Pass, for many years, according to my understanding of this person. No matter what happened, there was no way he could open the sword gate.

Li Zhao was not discouraged, took out a map, and said: "In addition to Jianmen Pass and Qutang Pass, where else can you enter Shudi?"

Ma Yanbin stared at the map for a long time and said: "To the west of Jianmen Pass, there is a place, but this road is not recommended. The road is extremely steep, and the road is full of high mountains and mountains, and in some places it is even impassable. "

The historical Yinping Trail is indeed west of Jianmen, and Li Zhao is not sure if the two are the same road, but he doesn't want to miss this opportunity. Otherwise, in a few months, Chen Ran will have tens of thousands of more elite soldiers, and Shu will be even more difficult to fight.

"Ben Shuai intends to send more than 20,000 troops to this road to kill in Shu. In addition to carrying grain and grass, the whole army also brought hemp rope, axes and chisels. If you encounter a dangerous place, dig a mountain to open a road and build a bridge pavilion. Li Zhao said.

"The handsome man is extraordinary, and I admire it. However, it is also necessary to remind the commander that if he takes this road, once the enemy army holds the dangerous place, I am afraid that the whole army will be in danger. Ma Yanbin persuaded.

"It's a risky plan, but it can be taken by surprise.

Seeing that Li Zhao had made up his mind, Ma Yanbin didn't say anything more. Then there is only one last question left, who will lead the troops to go out on the expedition?

Li Zhao ordered his own troops to go to Liucheng as soon as possible and call Shi Ai back.
