I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Li Ran's five strategies for defending the city can be described as step-by-step and extremely solid, making him invincible.

Gan Loach also tried to imitate cats and draw tigers, and tried to shoot fire arrows into the city, hoping to start a big fire and cause chaos in the city.But because the roof and city walls were already covered with wet mud, they all returned in vain.

After besieging the city several times, the enemy returned without success.This is a time when morale is low.Of course, Li Ran wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to further seize the initiative.

However, even though Wang Zichao knew that his intelligence was the best in the world, he still had some doubts.

Li Ran also knew what Wang Zichao was thinking, and continued:
"Now they actually hold the people hostage and threaten them. Although such unjust actions are vicious, they also show that the other party is striving for a quick victory. Now that we have been defeated, if we can't attack for a long time, we will lose the morale of the army. What's more, they The most difficult thing to deal with now is the supply. In order to rush to the capital as soon as possible and go to the battle lightly, they must not be able to raise much food and grass, and this is an opportunity for us to take advantage of."

"If we can attack its food road at night and burn its food and grass, the morale of its army will be broken. At that time, our army will win without fighting!"

When the prince heard the words, he couldn't help but nodded.

"Mr. really has a good plan, but the food road is so important, they will definitely guard it strictly? What if they go to attack at night and fall into their trap?"

In fact, Li Ran had already considered this.

"Gan Loach is a man of great ambition and talent. He has many soldiers but his control is unclear. He is arrogant but his government orders are inconsistent. Now the opponent has already messed up his position. As long as we divide our troops into three groups and pretend to attack with two routes, we will only take the food road all the way and wait for the food and grass to be intercepted. It is a big deal! And the food and grass all the way, there is no need for many people, only a hundred good riders are needed, there is no need to dismount, just burn the food and grass all the way, and send another road to meet them, and then they will be able to retreat completely! "

"Mr. Chao Nianji said that nothing was done to him, but this son tried to hang himself in vain! It's really abominable! Fortunately, he was rescued in time, so he didn't die completely. It's just that he is dying, with no water or food. I'm afraid his life will not be long. !"

"You and I are talking privately today. Your lord only needs to tell me about the arrangement of the single flag and the specific situation of Cheng Zhou. You don't need to discuss anything else. If your lord can recruit them truthfully, it will help our army win a big victory." , then after the situation stabilizes, His Highness will definitely send you back to Gongyi, and you can continue to be the suzerain of the Gong clan and the official doctor, what do you think about it?"

Li Ran sat by the bed, looked at him quietly for a while, and then said:

"This person is a tiger's minion. I thought that this person's death was not a pity, so I didn't think about it too much. Could it be that the court has been careless again?"

"Since that's the case, follow Mr.'s instructions!"

The deal proposed by Li Ran can be regarded as a win-win situation. With the help of the information provided by Gong Jian, Li Ran can deploy the arrangement of the single flag in advance, focus on it, and facilitate future plans.

The prince said respectfully:

Li Ran hesitated for a while, but said:
"Your Highness, how is Gong Jian's situation?"

The prince shook his head.

Li Ran smiled and said:

Li Ran came to see Gong Jian alone. At this moment, he was just lying on the bed, not eating or drinking. Although he was awake, his face was ashen, without the slightest expression, just staring blankly at the roof.

Gong Jian looked sideways at Li Ran.

"Actually, if you feel necessary for such trivial things in the future, you can just do it and don't need to report..."

"Lord Gong, are you worried about your family members in Gongyi? Or are you worried about your position as the suzerain of the Gong family?"

"Furthermore, if you die like this, what will Shan Qi do? Presumably, he will support another person from the Gong family's collateral lineage to be the successor, and then you will be able to get your heir in your turn." Is it? So, for the heirs of the adults, only the adults are alive, and the children of the adults have hope!"

But Gong Jian himself can save his life and ensure the safety of his family.

"What Lord Gong said is very true. Now that your family is in the hands of Shanqi, it is natural for you to be so worried. Now that His Royal Highness has acquired the capital, although it is not yet possible to fight against Shanqi, as long as you If we win the battle with Gan Loach this time, and then go on to take Gan Yi, then the situation will be different."

Li Ran smiled bitterly and said:
"Things in the world are chaotic, and it's normal for people to be inconsiderate. Your Highness doesn't have to blame yourself for this."

Li Ran retreated, and before seeing Gong Jian, he found Sun Wu and Fan Li again, and whispered a few words in their ears, what he ordered was the night attack tonight.

"Hmph! No matter how powerful you are, I'm afraid it's beyond your reach! Jane's heart is ashamed now, and you don't want to get anything from me, otherwise, if I bear the name of a traitor, I'm afraid the whole family will die No guarantee!"

After hearing this, the two of them went to meet the prince to receive the military order after they had identified the identities of these refugees.

"Besides, Wang Zichao has always had a good reputation. How can it be compared with the Shan family and the Liu family? Now the two of them are suspected of killing the king, which can be described as a heinous crime! As the saying goes, 'the right is more helpful than the wrong', Shan Qi The defeat is almost a foregone conclusion!"

Gong Jian had obviously been hit by Li Ran, so she closed her eyes.

"Hehe, once a gentleman says something, it's hard to catch a horse!"

"It's just that Jane doesn't want to serve the prince! Although he is the eldest son, he is a concubine after all. Although the prince died of illness, since Prince Meng has inherited the throne, as a clan member, he doesn't think about how to serve the Zhou family. There is still such a chaos, so that many members of the clan died because of it. How can such selfish people be the people's will?"

"At that time, Gong Yi will be included in His Royal Highness's pocket. At that time, who can protect your whole family?"

"really?"

Li Ran first nodded in agreement:

After some lobbying, it was obvious that Gong Jian was moved by what Li Ran said, but he still said:

"And the other two groups of people invaded his camp, so that Ganxiu couldn't look at each other from head to tail, and it would ensure that this move has a little more chance of winning!"

"Gong Jian is very useful, but I want to meet him for a while!"

"Hehe, he was originally a prisoner, so we should make it clear when we meet with him... Besides, this prison is heavily guarded, how did he get the silk cloth to hang himself? I wonder if His Highness has considered this matter?"

After hearing this, the prince could not help but take a deep breath.

When Gong Jian heard what Li Ran said, she suddenly turned her head to look at him, and then sighed.

Li Ran thought for a moment.

The prince looked as usual.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured that Jane will not commit suicide anymore, but I want Jane to tell the truth, and please defeat the Gan's army that came to encircle and suppress, and come find me again at that time!"

Li Ran knew that he wanted to wait and see, and weigh whether Wang Zichao could really defeat Gan Loach and form a rivalry with Shan Qi.

"Okay. However, if I dare to ask Lord Gong, there is actually one more thing I don't know, and I hope the Lord can tell the truth. I don't know...how did the Lord get the silk cloth?"

Gong Jian smiled wryly.

"The prison was damp and dark, and it was difficult to distinguish day and night. Jane was disheartened, so how could she notice this. All I knew was that a person suddenly appeared, and there was a foot of white silk in the cell. Besides, as for I don't even know what that person looks like, and when he sent it here!"
