Chapter 63: You Don’t Be Kinder, Mr. Zhou

Lu Chen looked at the parchment in his hand and said nothing for almost a quarter of an hour.

This was the real crisis he encountered since arriving in North County.

In fact, if he could not withstand the barbarian attack and simply abandoned his fiefdom and returned to the capital, he would at most be punished and not die.

But once he voluntarily abandoned his fiefdom and fled back to the capital alone, his reputation as a prince would really plummet, and it would be difficult to recover.

A king who abandons his own people and his own territory will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

But if he doesn't leave, then he will face a very real problem.

Thirty thousand versus three hundred thousand, how to fight!

And it's infantry versus cavalry!

There are exactly 13 cities in the thirteen counties of Beijun, and 30,000 soldiers cannot defend them at all.

And it was difficult for him to know from which direction the barbarians would attack.

Seeing that Lu Chen remained silent, Qin Yushan stopped speaking and just stood quietly next to Lu Chen.

For a moment, it was eerily quiet in the study, and even the sound of mosquitoes seemed extremely loud.

Lu Chen thought of the 122mm howitzer at this time. Two hundred 122mm howitzers could play some role.

Moreover, no one in this world has ever seen such a terrifying weapon, so it can catch the opponent by surprise.

But the key to the problem is that the cavalry is dispersed and highly mobile. What if the opponent sees that they have such a terrifying weapon in their hands and just turns around and runs away?

Thinking of this, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

Wait... wasn't he worried about how to defend Xiabei County? Why now he was worried that the barbarians would escape...

Thinking of this, Lu Chen couldn't help but reveal an evil smile.

If all these 300,000 cavalrymen could be gathered in one place, maybe it would not be impossible to fight 300,000 against 300,000?

But, would the barbarians be so obedient?

If the barbarians send out so many cavalry at once, they will inevitably divide their troops. It is impossible to attack a city with 300,000 cavalry.

Unless there is a place or something that can attract them to attack with 300,000 cavalry.

After Lu Chen thought for a while, he felt that he was not made for fighting, and professional matters still needed to be left to professionals.

He is thinking here alone, and he may not come up with a good solution after thinking for a long time.

He had never been on the battlefield in his previous life, and he had never fought in this life, so there was no use in dreaming here.

No matter how much you think about it, in the end it’s just talk on paper.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen said to Qin Yushan: "Tomorrow morning, summon the important generals and county guards from North County to come to the palace."

Qin Yushan instantly understood what Lu Chen meant. Lu Chen obviously planned to call them together to discuss countermeasures before making a decision.

at the same time.

Baihualou.

In the fragrant room, a graceful figure loomed. Wang Qingci was taking a bath in the tub. At this time, a maid said from behind the curtain: "Master, the people from the Blood Moon Tower have arrived."

Hearing this, Wang Qingci immediately got up from the tub. Water droplets all over her body kept sliding down against her white jade body. Her whole body was like a hibiscus emerging from the water.

After Wang Qingci got dressed, she came to the third floor pavilion of Baihua Building.

At this time, a young man in white clothes was standing on the edge of the railing, looking in the direction of the North Palace.

This situation reminded Wang Qingci of a person. The former deputy owner of the Blood Moon Tower seemed to like standing there and looking in the direction of the palace.

After Wang Qingci entered the attic, he immediately said: "Master Zhou, you are finally here. I have long wanted to leave this ghost place of Yancheng."

Hearing this, the young man in white looked back at Wang Qingci with a faint smile on his face, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Wang."

Zhou Hanwen was different from the Hall Master of the Blood Moon Tower. He was dressed in white and looked like a handsome young man, just like a frail scholar.

But he is not weak at all, he is a true master.

Zhou Hanwen asked at this time: "Miss Wang, I heard that the Northern Palace is preparing to take a concubine. I wonder if this is the case?"

Wang Qingci replied: "It is true, but why did Master Zhou ask this question? Does Master Zhou intend to send a female assassin to sneak into the palace and assassinate King Bei?"

Having said this, Wang Qingci showed a bitter smile on his face, pretending to be unwilling to recall something and said: "Master Zhou, if you want to do this, I suggest you forget it. Chu Yuqin is already half Grandmaster Bu, and she follows King Bei every day, and even listens outside when King Bei has sex with his wives and concubines. "

"If we just sent a female assassin to get close to King Bei, Chu Yuqin might have discovered the clues before she even got to King Bei."

"Our Baihualou assassin was killed by Chu Yuqin alone. I suspect she will become a grandmaster in a few years."

Hearing Wang Qingci's words, Zhou Hanwen frowned slightly, "I did have the idea of ​​sending a female assassin to get close to the Northern King just now, but after hearing what Miss Wang said, it seems that if you want to assassinate the Northern King, you can only lure the Northern King." Out."

"It would be best if he could be separated from the mysterious master."

At this point, Zhou Hanwen's brows widened again, and then he stared at Wang Qingci with a smile on his face, "Miss Wang, I heard that King Bei is very lustful. I wonder if he is interested in you?"

Wang Qingci replied: "King Bei has indeed been thinking about my body. For the mission, I have been hanging on to him. If Master Zhou needs me for anything, just ask."

Zhou Hanwen said: "Then please ask Miss Wang to lead the King of the North to Baihua Tower, so that our chances of success will be greater."

Wang Qingci said: "Of course there is no problem with this, but even if I let him come to Baihua Tower alone, I am afraid that the mysterious master and Chu Yuqin around him will still follow him."

Zhou Hanwen smiled and said: "If we can lead those two out of the palace, it will be a good thing for our Xueyue Tower."

"I want to prepare a surprise for the King of the North."

Zhou Hanwen is not a stubborn person. He wants to take revenge on the King of the North, but he doesn't necessarily have to kill him immediately.

If the two mysterious masters and Chu Yuqin can be led out of the palace, Xueyue Tower can enter the palace and kill people. He wants the King of the North to see the bodies of his wives and concubines with his own eyes.

And this time, Xueyue Tower came to Beijun for another important purpose, which is to obtain soap perfume and the method of making soap.

As long as they can lead the mysterious master out, they will have enough time to steal the method of making soap perfume from the King of the North Palace.

At this time, Zhou Hanwen thought that the Beiwang Mansion only had one master who was slightly more powerful. Without that master, the Beiwang Mansion would be a lamb to be slaughtered.

At this time, Wang Qingci's mouth corners slightly raised, and his lips formed a faint arc, and he said with a slight smile: "In this case, I will let the Beiwang come to Baihua Tower tonight."

After hearing Wang Qingci's words, Zhou Hanwen said politely: "Then I'll trouble Miss Wang."

Wang Qingci said: "Master Zhou, you don't have to be polite. This is what I should do."
