Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 65 If the tiger doesn’t show its power, you really treat me like a kid
  "The sentinel reported that the huge Jin army has entered the territory of Jizhou. General Liu's troops must have fought with it. Dozens of defeated soldiers escaped back. General Liu may have also"

Zhao Heshou stood in front of Pharmacist Guo. He was not as bold as Liu Ling. He dared to raise his head and talk and laugh with Pharmacist Guo every time. Zhao Heshou broke a hand and lost his advantage in some aspects. Now he can only rely on what Pharmacist Guo gave him. That bit of power.

He suddenly felt a chill from the body of Pharmacist Guo in front of him. After hearing the news that Liu Ling might have died in the battle, Pharmacist Guo seemed a little extra calm.

Zhao Heshou gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice:

"Commander, since General Liu has died in battle, now is not the time to feel sorry for him. The Jin army is about to attack. For now, the only solution is..."

"The golden man will not attack." Medicine Master Guo said, with a trace of unquestionable certainty in his voice.

Zhao Heshou was stunned for a moment, and some terrible suspicions suddenly emerged in his heart.

"General, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I will leave."

Pharmacist Guo looked at Zhao Heshou's back. After a while, he lowered his head and rubbed his brows tiredly, as if to comfort himself, "We are all going to die anyway. Only if you die can we live."

"You can't die."

When the Jin cavalry appeared in the distance, Liu Ling was not among the cavalry below, but hiding on a hillside with more than 300 cavalry beside him.

They watched with their own eyes as the Jin people dispersed their comrades like a broken bamboo. Just like the rumors, the Jin people were so ferocious that some of the victorious army cavalry below who wanted to resist were shot dead on the spot.

Liu Ling assigned more than 200 loyal confidants to follow Zhang Wu to guard the central army.

Those people should be dead now, right?

When he saw that the victorious army below him collapsed almost immediately after a confrontation, Liu Ling took the remaining more than 300 cavalry and began to flee far away. They have been fleeing until now. When he sat down, his white horse began to spray foam. , looking a little exhausted.

When Li Ai was tied to the horse next to him, Liu Ling took out his knife and put the blade on his neck.

"But if you don't tell the truth honestly, I will make you regret being born."

In just two days, he didn't know which step he had taken wrong. The situation turned into what he saw almost instantly, and he even had to come up with a clumsy way to cut off his tail to survive.

First, Shi Liai "led the wrong way" intentionally or unintentionally, and then when Liu Ling stopped to observe the situation, news came from the rear sentries. Not only did the reinforcements and food teams that were supposed to come over not arrive, but also inside Jizhou. Other cities have also blocked their gates and seem to have received the news in advance.

A sentry rider wanted to go into the city to ask about the situation. After revealing his identity, the defenders at the top of the city even intended to shoot him. The sentry rider finally came back injured and reported the situation. Liu Ling immediately knew that the problem was serious. .

But everything went smoothly in the past few days, and he didn't know which step went wrong.

"I'll count to three. If you don't say anything, you'll die. I'll continue to run away."

The blade was cold. Not only was Shi Liai not afraid, but he actually laughed. It was his "confident" look that made Liu Ling more and more upset.

This old guy must know something.

"General, do you want to know the truth?"

Liu Ling didn't say anything, and pressed the blade directly. Shi Liai felt a warm current flowing out of the back of his neck, and the smile on his face became even bigger, showing a bit of madness.

"I said."

The blade was released, Liu Ling tore off a piece of cloth, pressed it on Shi Liai's wound, and looked at him fiercely.

"A few days ago, when Marshal Guo and I were talking, we talked about you. Well, to put it simply, Marshal Guo said that you were an immature wolf. I asked at that time, how could that be?"

"Marshal Guo said that every time he gave you only soldiers, money, food and war horses, but you used ten times the money and goods to bribe him and bribe the people around him." At this point, Shi Liai was still sleeping on the war horse, breathing a little. Difficulty, he signaled Liu Ling to help him up. Liu Ling's face was gloomy, and he stretched out his hand to grab his collar, and forcibly lifted the old man up to sit down.

"Huh, if that's the case, it's not like Marshal Guo can't tolerate you. At most, he can wait until the incident is over before playing with you slowly." Shi Liai smiled gently, looking at Liu who was full of murderous intent towards him. Ling, the philanthropic one seems to be looking at his own descendants.

"When you attack Xiongzhou, try to avoid killing or injuring the Song people. The soldiers of the victorious army will tell him when they go back; General Liu, don't think that you are the only one who wants to have two boats. Guo Yaoshi is not Fool, if only you knew."

Having said this, Shi Liai shook his head again.

"Of course, if this is all, he still won't kill you. Do you know why Yaoshi Guo is so sure that the Jin people will not go south? Do you know why he wants to kill you?"

Shi Liai was tied up and could not stretch out his hands, but Liu Ling clearly felt that his eyes were on him.

"This strategy, to put it nicely, was planned and perfected by me, Pharmacist Guo and others. In fact, most of the plans that were implemented came from you. Pharmacist Guo did not dare to let you stay around anymore. .

For him, there is no doubt about the plan. As long as the Song people acquiesce in this loss and the Jin people do not take the initiative to fight with him, then he will be able to gain the upper hand in the subsequent peace talks, and even occupy the land of Yan alone. It's not impossible.

By then, if you are still alive, wouldn't you just be causing trouble for him? "

Shi Liai let out a sigh, as if he thought Liu Ling was out of his mind, which is why he gave such a good plan to Pharmacist Guo.

You are the fucking leader of his soldiers. Not only are you fierce in fighting, you are also smarter than him, so why should he keep you?

"So it's better to use you as a bargaining chip to ensure that the Jin people will not go south." Shi Liai smacked his lips, "I'll trick you into entering Jizhou, cut off your money and food, and then I'll persuade you to stay where you are for two or three days - The Emperor of Jin's order is very strict and he is not allowed to start a war without permission, so Wanyan Zongwang wants you to be a part of his contribution, and then he will be satisfied and no longer take the initiative to attack.

Wanyan Zongwang wants credit, and as long as he gets you, he will take the initiative to take a step back; now Guo Yaoshi only needs Jin Ren's step back, compared to the benefits he will get in the future, who are you? Is it worth his hesitation?
  Let me tell you, the only flaw that Pharmacist Guo showed was that he was reluctant to part with his cavalry, but he wanted to take some back in the end for fear of losing money. "

"When you complained to me, I didn't even know if you were testing me. I was so scared that I didn't dare to say anything." Shi Liai's smile became brighter, "But look, you didn't realize it at all. It’s completely different from when you made that plan. So, no matter who you are, it’s easy for you to be smart and confused for a while.”

Liu Ling took a deep breath and felt as if he had eaten a mouthful of flies.

Who could have thought of this?

Even if you perform too well, you will be targeted, right?

"What else do you want to say before you die?" Liu Ling held the blade with his stiff hands, thinking that he was lucky enough to have Cai Jing as a back-up. It seemed that Pharmacist Guo didn't know this.

But damn, are you really going to go hang around in the Song Dynasty in the future?
  "Actually, I am willing to help you." Shi Liai raised his head, his eyes were not filled with fear of death, but in Liu Ling's eyes, they looked more like madness.

He sarcastically said:

"Help me seek my own death?"

"If you don't even see this, I really don't dare to care about you." Shi Liai shook his head, "Fortunately, sometimes your mind is not very bright, but your heart is very vicious and decisive. You realize that something may be wrong with you. At that time, you actually gave up the entire army and put your confidant named Zhang Wu and so many cavalry outside as bait."

"Tsk, I didn't expect that there would be someone like you in the world."

Tokidori smacked his lips, but couldn't find a suitable adjective.

"I have a way to save you, and not just you." He looked at Liu Ling, a layer of white frost had formed on his eyebrows, but it could not freeze the perseverance inside. "It will even allow you to get the position of Pharmacist Guo."

"Are you so kind?" Liu Ling looked at him suspiciously.

Shili Ai paused and explained: "The main reason is that I don't want to die."
