Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The imperial doctors were busy in a group, surrounded by a book and a jasper pen. A group of the most learned doctors in the Central Plains Dynasty wanted to find out what the poison was, so that they could prescribe the right medicine.

People are busy day and night, using various methods, soaking book paper in water, experimenting with ants, saplings, kittens, etc. But in the end someone thought it was not poisonous! The faint smell on the handprint is the smell of sweat!

Yang Shiliang was called by the imperial doctors, and he insisted: "It must be poison, the murderer has already admitted it!"

An old man said: "This old man has smelled all kinds of herbs all his life. Although his old nose is still good, there is no medicine in this tube, unless the medicine is really colorless, tasteless, and no trace can be found."

Yang Shiliang was questioned by a group of people, his mind was in a mess, and suddenly he had an idea: Is it a trick of torture?

There was a burst of cold sweat in his palms. This matter has been reported to the queen, and the civil and military officials of the court have set off. If it is fake, can he get rid of it? But after thinking about it carefully, the little palace lady spoke in a decent way, it doesn't seem like a fabrication.

Yang Shiliang was puzzled, and said: "Dear physicians, please study this thing carefully, there should be nothing wrong..."

He left this place and hurried to see the little maid again. The court lady was still tied to the chair, seeing Yang Shiliang's face turned pale, struggling to move back. This time Yang Shiliang's expression was not so scary, he stepped forward and pondered for a moment, and said kindly: "Don't be afraid, the miscellaneous family asked you, did you really put poison on the pen barrel?"

Unexpectedly, the maid shook her head.

Yang Shiliang immediately stood there dumbfounded.

At this time, the maid said again: "I wiped it on the ivory comb. The officials comb their hair every day, and the servants use that expensive comb. The poison seeped into the officials' bodies from the scalp."

When Yang Shiliang heard this, he almost didn't recover, and asked with a stare: "The miscellaneous family didn't find anything unusual about the comb, they just checked the barrel, how could you admit it?"

The palace lady's eyes were full of doubts: "Didn't Eunuch Yang notice the clues from my fingernails?"

The conscience of heaven and earth, Yang Shiliang subconsciously looked at her hands at that time, but didn't see anything! I suspect this girl mainly because I feel that she looks and behaves differently.

Completely crooked! For a while, Yang Shiliang felt that the world was full of absurdity... However, this was also due to his opponent's loopholes, and the person he was looking for was really not sophisticated enough.

...At this moment, a group of Xu Jun's fine cavalry in bright armor arrived in Xuzhou, and the armored cavalry entered through the city gate.

"It's time to go." A man wearing a Futou watched with a large group of people at the intersection for a while, and then said to his followers.

The entourage asked: "Leave now?"

The man said in a deep voice: "Look at the scene, the matter should have been exposed, and you can't leave without any hesitation."

The two led the horse and turned around and went out of the city from another direction, then got on the horse and ran along the post road.

The entourage rode up to catch up with the scribes and asked, "Fan Gong, should we say hello to those officials in the state of Xu and let them prepare?"

The person called Fan Gong was Fan Zhongyi, a Han official from the Liao Kingdom. When Xiao Siwen was the king of the South Court, he was respected for his superior strategy. But at this time, Fan Zhongyi had been in the Central Plains for quite a while.

Fan Zhongyi calmly said on horseback: "Don't worry about it! If this matter is leaked, what's the use of those people? We have to run away to Daliao. At that time, we have to cash in our treasures and official positions. Now if we are caught by the people of Xu, we can clean them up and save a lot of money."

The entourage looked shocked on the horse, mainly because Fan Zhongyi spoke very lightly. Apart from lamenting that she is non-toxic and not a husband, she has nothing to say.

...

Li Chuyun's army was approaching Guanzhong, and the inland march was much smoother, at least there was no shortage of food and grass. Every time they set up camp, the tents of the barracks stretched for several miles, and the battles were very spectacular.

Everything seemed to be uneventful.

Li Chuyun was putting together some shredded paper in the tent with his own hands, and dipped it in the paste.

His "confidant" staff member Zhongli watched Li Chuyun concentrate on this trivial matter with great interest, and thought about everything: "Mr. Li has such a state of mind at this time, and he is really a person who can achieve great things."

Li Chuyun raised his head and frowned and said: "The people of Liao sent a lobbyist to deliver a letter. The letter said that the official was suffering from an incurable disease and died soon. He wanted to persuade me to collude with the enemy and plot a rebellion! At that time, I was both angry and worried that others would see the letter. I would be suspicious, so I tore up the letter on the spot to cover it up, and at the same time killed the messenger to show my attitude. But..."

Zhong Li didn't say a word.

Li Chuyun said: "I did the math after the fact. Even if the Liao people have very powerful spies in Tokyo, how far is the distance from scouting to the news, sending it back to the Liao country, and sending people to travel long distances to the northwest? How could they do it in such a short time?"

Zhongli pondered and said: "Li Gong's words are reasonable, how did the people of Liao know, could it be that they are playing the wrong way?"

Li Chuyun shook his head: "If there is no truth, it would be in vain for the Liao people to send envoys to persuade me! I am already the Duke of Daxu, and my family is all based in Daxu. What can the Liao people give me? The only explanation for this matter, the disease of the official family, has nothing to do with the Liao Kingdom!"

Zhongli immediately looked at Li Chuyun in dismay: "Mr. Li thinks this is a conspiracy?"

Li Chuyun nodded seriously: "The so-called serious illness may be the plot of the Liao people to murder the officials."

Zhongli looked at the letter paper that Li Chuyun had spent a lot of time putting together, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Li wants to send this letter back to Tokyo to remind the courtiers?"

Li Chuyun frowned: "Exactly. If there is no such letter, I will remind people empty-handedly, it would not be just arousing suspicion... Otherwise, I am far away in the northwest, how can I guess that the official family was harmed by others?"

Zhongli said calmly: "Even if Li Gong sent this letter, people would still be suspicious."

Li Chuyun was speechless for a long time after hearing this, and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he silently continued to piece together the unfinished letter paper.

Zhongli said earnestly: "My lord, you have to be far-sighted! At this time, we must first show our loyalty to the country, and we must not let people put shit on our heads|baskets! At this time, we dare not act rashly when we are not fully fledged, so we can get through it, and the future will be long."

Li Chuyun was noncommittal, his thinking was no shorter than this staff member. Li Chuyun's thoughts come not only from books, but also from experience flowing out of countless turbulent waves.

... In the northeast, Xiao Siwen has personally come to the west of Liaoning from Shangjing.

He stood on a hillside riding a horse, facing the sea breeze, overlooking the Bohai Sea. On the flat land by the sea, a strangely shaped earth castle lay there... It looked really strange, but according to Yang Gun's description, it was very difficult to attack.

Xiao Siwen believed in Yang Dagon's battle knowledge.

The fort seems to be unfinished, like a temporary camp with only adobe; the most amazing thing is the site selection, with Longshan to the west and mountains to the east. The fort is not built on the mountain, but on a flat place between the two mountains.

Yang Gun's explanation is that the mountains on both sides are far away from the sea; Xu Jun completely gave up his terrain advantage in order to rely on the sea. Previously, when Xu Jun built Ishimi Fort in Japan, he built it on the hillside, and tried to open up the sea route but failed...

"This fort is not a big city. It controls a small territory, but it is a stalk of the throat. If the Liao army enters the pass from the northeast, and Xu Jun is here, if it is close, it will threaten our food road and retreat; if it is far away, it will disturb the old land of Bohai Sea." Yang Gun pointed down the mountain and talked eloquently.

Xiao Siwen said in a low voice: "As long as Guo Tiejiang dies, there will be civil strife in the Xu country, and it will be a time for offensive and defensive changes."

Yang Gun showed a look of relief: "The final general heard that blacksmith Guo has been poisoned deeply, and as long as the poison enters the five internal organs, no one can save him."

He was relieved to be able to know, because this matter is extremely confidential.

Xiao Siwen said calmly: "You have to calm down, you can't go south lightly. The Northeast Liao Army, first attack and try to take this fort, and wait for the opportunity!"

After saying that, he turned his horse's head, and looked back to the southwest... Xiao Siwen also felt that the conspiracy was extremely base, and when Fan Zhongyi was planning the strategy, he thought it was not very reliable and difficult to make it work.

Xiao Siwen had no choice but to do such things. The majestic Daliao, forced to such a field, can only use everything! Any means are not too much for the prosperity of the country.

He thought about the history of the "Southern People" and decided that if Xu Guo had no Guo blacksmith, the threat to Liao State would not be that great. As long as Guo Tiejiang dies, everything will turn around, but Guo Tiejiang is only in his thirties, and if he dies of old age, at least Xiao Siwen feels that he will not be exhausted; this is the best, Xu Guozhu's "sudden death" not only eliminates the huge threat, Xiao Siwen also estimates that Xu Guo will have civil strife!

In the secret ancient tomb, the shaman in Shangjing used ancient mystical spells to curse Guo Tiejiang to die all day long, but the curse didn’t seem to work for several years. In the end, the poison worked, and he was sent to heaven!

After a group of people rode for an hour, they saw cavalry soldiers criss-crossing the territory of Yingzhou, tents like clouds, and the Liao army gathered. Not long after, General Yelu Xiezhen came to see him on horseback.

The two groups of people faced each other, pressed their hands on their chests on the horse, and performed the salute silently before approaching. Xiao Siwen said: "Xu Jun's fortress has not been completed yet, the commander-in-chief dispatches troops to harass as soon as possible, don't let them reinforce the fortification."

Yelu Xiezhen said: "There are only about two or three thousand infantry in Peterburg, why not just burn it to the ground!?"

Xiao Siwen glanced at Yang Gun, and said: "Last time, 30,000 Japanese troops attacked Ishijian Fort with 500 men, which lasted for several months. The commander should not underestimate the enemy. When sending troops, let Yang Gun accompany him."

Riding on the horse, Yang Gun bowed to Yelu Xiezhen seriously.

Yelu Xiezhen is also a fierce general of the Liao Kingdom, but his temperament is not as fierce as that of Yeluxiu, who was famous for a while, so he just said: "Very good!"

Xiao Siwen rode his horse towards the city of Yingzhou. Along the way, the fertile plains of Yingzhou were lush and lush, and the crops were growing well. Although the main force of Daliao has never been in the old land of Bohai, they regard this vast land as the flesh and blood of their heart!
