Chapter 529 The Assassination Failed
February [-], noon, Taishan's captain's room.

Liu Xinqi had lunch with Zhao Liang, Liu Xinhui and Zhao Yinghao.

"Is it March today?" Zhao Yinghao asked.

"No, February this year is a big month with thirty days, so today is February [-]th." Zhao Liang replied.

"Time flies so fast. It feels like yesterday was still the same year, and tomorrow is already March." Zhao Yinghao sighed.

"What's wrong? It's not like you to be so pretentious." Liu Xinhui joked.

"I was just thinking that Xinwei is younger than me, he is already married, and the alliance leader will soon be a father. I am the only one who is alone. How pitiful." Zhao Yinghao put down his job and pretended to be melancholy.

"When I go back this time, I'll ask your sister-in-law to introduce one to you." Liu Xinqi continued.

"Okay! You can't be worse than Liu Xinwei's wife." Zhao Yinghao immediately succeeded, his goal was achieved, and his iconic silly smile appeared on his face again.

He has a very deceptive and silly smile, and anyone who believes he is a fool will reap the consequences.

"If you have something to say, you can't say it directly. It's yin and yang." Liu Xinqi didn't give him a guarantee. There is no standard for a wife to be good or bad.

Everyone has their own preferences for carrots and vegetables, but he can't guarantee that the wife introduced by Zhou Yue will be better than Liu Xinwei's wife from Zhao Yinghao.

Besides, the idea that daughters-in-law are from other people’s families has been around since ancient times.

"Hehe..." Zhao Yinghao smiled and buried his head in eating.

"Leader!" There was a knock on the door, and Xu Zhong walked in.

"What happened?" Seeing Xu Zhong's solemn expression, Liu Xinqi knew it must be bad news.

"That's right." Xu Zhong handed the paper in his hand to Liu Xinqi.

Liu Xinqi read it quickly and then passed it to Zhao Liang on his left.

The contents of the note are very concise.

Zhao Nan launched an assassination attempt on Emperor Song Gou of Southern Zhao last night, but failed.

Song Gou took a boat cruise on the West Lake on the 29th. The specific activities were not mentioned, but he probably was either reciting poems or composing poems or playing in the flower fields under the moonlight. He did not get off the boat until Hai Hai and returned to the palace. Along the way, in addition to the guards of the Sanya Forbidden Army, there were also elites of the Western Army on the periphery. guard.

Since moving south, Song Gou rarely left the palace. Going out on the 29th can be said to be very rare. Zhao Nan did not miss this opportunity and launched an assassination hastily.

The main force of the assassination was twelve soldiers, and fifty naval elites were harassing the outside.

The initial assassination went smoothly. The elite defense line of the Western Army was penetrated by two groups of soldiers before they could react. Then the Sanya Forbidden Army was about to be broken through. Unexpectedly, the elite generals of the Western Army were extremely organized. The Western Army was immediately organized to surround the assassinated soldiers.

Then Song Gou's golden chariot was also taken over and guarded by the Western Army.

Compared with the Sanya Forbidden Army, the elite of the Western Army were very brave and fearless of death. The twelve soldiers were divided into two commando teams and were surrounded.

Among these warriors, Zhao Nan has the highest level of Immortal Talisman. He is only at the second level, which does not form a qualitative and absolute suppression of the human sea tactics. Moreover, the power of the divine arm crossbow of the Song Dynasty is comparable to that of a pistol. Under the crossbow's shooting, the soldiers are somewhat afraid of throwing rat weapons. The assault was released.

Finally, after killing more than 600 elites of the Western Army and the Sanya Forbidden Army, they suddenly arrived in front of the golden chariot.

It's a pity that there is only one Western Army general in it.

"Who is this Wu Jie? He is capable and courageous. He even dares to sit on the emperor's Jin Ren." Zhao Yinghao praised after reading the note.The person in Jinrenli is Wu Jie, and the emperor has withdrawn from other channels, leaving Wu Jie in Jinrenli to command the Western Army and Sanya Imperial Army on the scene to besiege the assassins.

"What a talent. Facing twelve super warriors, it's a pity that Song Gou was still able to be rescued."

Wu Jie was killed by Zhao Nan to vent his anger, and then took advantage of the chaos in Zhao Jun's command system to retreat calmly with other soldiers.

There is no information about Wu Jie in Liu Xinqi's memory, and later generations have not been exposed to such in-depth historical knowledge.

"It has alarmed the snake." Zhao Liang said: "Next, Song Gou will definitely live in seclusion and hide himself tightly. There are many people in the Southern Zhao court who know our Xinghan Alliance. It is estimated that there will be no such good opportunity again."

"Assassination fails to achieve a strong attack. Leading thousands of soldiers, directly break into Hangzhou City. I don't believe that the Zhao army in Hangzhou City can stop it." Zhao Yinghao once again put forward his theory.

"The final development of this matter is still unknown. We have demonstrated our force to the Southern Zhao court. Now it depends on what they choose." Liu Xinqi concluded.

Twelve men killed more than 600 Zhao soldiers and retreated calmly under siege by the enemy. Such a fierce performance must have frightened Song Gou.

Song Gou could blindly seek peace under the pressure of the Jin army. There is no reason why he would become a tough guy in the Xinghan League.

"What to do when we come down?" Xu Zhong asked.

"Let Wang Boyan be our lobbyist, and we will sign a peace treaty with the State of Zhao, using the Yellow River as the boundary and non-aggression." Liu Xinqi said.

Now, except for the Xinghan League, the other territories north of the Yellow River belong to either the Pseudo-Qi Dynasty, the Jin Kingdom, or the Xixia Kingdom, and there is no land from the Zhao Kingdom.On the contrary, there is a lot of land south of the Yellow River that is not owned by the Zhao State. It may be easier to recover because the Xinghan Alliance cut off the Jin State and the Puppet Qi State.

"The Haizhou and Lianshui armies are north of the Yellow River." Zhao Liang reminded that these are the only two military states in Hebei controlled by Southern Zhao.

"These two states can continue to be counted as Zhao's, but this is the bottom line and cannot be released early." Liu Xinqi said.

"Wang Boyan is the right minister of Southern Zhao. Will he help me as a lobbyist?" Zhao Yinghao was confused.

"He will. He has eaten so much of our Xinghan Alliance over the years, so it's his turn to do something. Otherwise, it depends on whether Wang Boyan has the elite guards of the Sanya Imperial Army and the Western Army." Xu Zhong answered this question for Liu Xinqi .

Wang Boyan has been obedient on the surface since he was subdued by Zhao Liang, but in private, important information from the Southern Zhao court was not delivered to Diting in time.

As Nan Zhao gradually stabilized, Wang Boyan seemed to care less and less about what happened before. Every time he asked him to do something or ask for information, he had to pay a heavy sum of money.

Now that he has broken up with Nan Zhao, there is no need to continue to coddle him.

"Who will accompany Wang Boyan?" Xu Zhong asked Liu Xinqi.

"I'll go. I believe he will be easier to talk to after seeing me." Zhao Liangmao recommended himself.

"No, you are now the captain of the fleet and are not suitable for doing this kind of thing anymore. Just arrange for Zhao Nan to go." Liu Xinqi returned.

"I'll go in person. Zhao Nan is still a little impatient." Xu Zhong did not agree.

Zhao Nan did not complete the assassination this time, and the impact on Xu Zhong's heart was greatly reduced.

What could have been solved with a wave of grenades had to be solved with a melee attack, giving Wu Jie a chance to rescue Song Gou.

He also wanted to go south in person and ask Zhao Nan why he wasted such a good opportunity by not using explosives.
