Chapter 894
Looking at the regretful Zhou Gan, Wang Xian slowly shook his head and said, "It's my fault. Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to win a hundred battles. I only know myself and don't know the enemy, so I have this defeat." Wang Xian sighed, Helping Zhou Gan said: "In the final analysis, I was too eager for quick success and underestimated the heroes of Shandong."

"Your Excellency, don't blame yourself. This matter is indeed the fault of your subordinates," Zhou Gan said guiltily: "I didn't realize Tang Tiande's subcontracting scheme, and what's more, I didn't realize that he already has such a great influence. Daming's army obeys his orders!"

"Let's stop arguing," Wang Xian waved his hands and said, "We still have to handle the errands in Shandong. As for what responsibilities we should take, let's talk about it later."

"Yes." Zhou Gan nodded, before he stopped blaming himself, and calmed down, he said, "I have already interrogated the captives. It turned out that Tang Tiande expected that the Lord would find the Buddha's mother, so he was always on guard. He and the Buddha's mother went around in tandem. , although it is to subdue the White Lotus Sect in various places, but it also means fishing. The more than one thousand riders belong to Qingzhou Wei, but they have already surrendered to the White Lotus Sect. It is Tang Tiande's secret power. In order to protect the Buddha mother, the second is to have a camera to destroy us."

"It's just that they didn't expect that your lord would hide so many troops in the canyon without warning." Zhou Gan went on to report: "According to Tang Tiande's intention, we should not attack rashly, but the Buddha mother insisted on destroying your lord. , They could only take a dangerous blow, but they were annihilated by the lord." After a pause, he said, "It was also because the incident happened suddenly, and there was no time for careful arrangements in all aspects, which gave the lord a chance to break through."

"En." Wang Xian nodded, walked a few steps in the hall with his hands behind his back, and asked slowly: "I was interrogating prisoners on the battlefield, and I once learned that Elder Tang had a temporary idea in the morning to let those villagers wear clothes. Put on their clothes and open the way ahead." He looked at Zhou Gan and said, "Then how did Elder Tang know that we will ambush them at Taniguchi?"

This is what Wang Xian couldn't figure out all the time. He has reviewed the whole process and thinks that there are only three possibilities. One is that Hu Sandao and the others were recognized before, or they were found hiding in the Grand Canyon; Those who dared to leak the secrets; the third was that Liu Ben, a native of Shandong Province, and the officers and soldiers of the Shandong capital who escorted him, some smart people foresaw his actions, and sent people to inform Tang Tiande with fast horses or pigeons.

As for whether it was someone close to him who leaked the secret, Wang Xian thinks that there is almost no such possibility. First, these people have always followed him without that condition. Second, Wang Xian also believes that these life and death brothers will not betray him.

.

In the hall, Wang Xian's question caused Zhou Gan to fall into deep thought, and after a while he slowly said: "The second possibility should not exist. In order to keep it secret, none of the subordinates disclosed the action plan. They just urged them to step up investigation, otherwise It's not even Tang Tiande's tricks that he didn't discover."

"What about the first possibility?" Wang Xian nodded and asked softly.

"This possibility exists, but it is very small," Zhou Gan said slowly: "Bandits in southern Lunan are rampant, horse thieves come and go like the wind, and Hu Sandao didn't flaunt his own banner everywhere. Who would know him? He's back again? And he hid in the Grand Canyon a few days in advance, if the White Lotus Sect finds out all this, then the White Lotus Sect's ability will have to be re-evaluated."

"It seems that you are inclined to the third type," Wang Xian said in a deep voice, "Me too." After a pause, he said, "With what I have done before, no matter how hard I perform in front of Liu Ben and the others, I am afraid that I will It can only confuse them, once they find out that we are missing, smart people will soon realize that something is wrong." He said a little helplessly: "Although it is difficult to guess that we can cross the Taiyi Mountains and go straight into the Grand Canyon, but It doesn't prevent them from reminding the Buddha mother to be careful and safe... After all, no matter how well I hide, the goal is certain."

"Your Excellency is right," Zhou Gan nodded and said, "No matter what happens, this possibility must be ruled out. If there are internal thieves, they must be caught before we can talk about anything else."

"En." Wang Xian nodded, his tone suddenly became sad and said: "In any case, this failure will make our future errands ten times more difficult."

"Yes." Zhou Ganshen said in agreement, "After this time, my lord will no longer be able to hide the truth, and the Buddha mother will be more vigilant, and will not take the risk of assassinating my lord again."

"******!" Wang Xian shattered the cup irritably, the lingering sense of frustration was something he hadn't tasted for many years.

In the evening of the same day, Chu Yan and Ma Zhong rushed to Tai'an. Seeing that Wang Xian was safe and sound, Chu Yan was in tears. Ma Zhong thanked God, looking at the two of them, it seemed that they were really overly frightened.But the two of them were not stupid, they were obedient and didn't ask Wang Xian why he suddenly appeared in the south of Taiyi Mountains, as if everything was taken for granted.

The next morning, the two embraced Wang Xian and went back to Jinan.When they arrived in Jinan City, Liu Ben also came back. When he saw Wang Xian, he was naturally screaming again, calling him lucky.Liu Ben also didn't ask Wang Xian why he chased a wild boar to Tai'an City.The days suddenly seemed to return to the past, but the four adults who had their own ghosts knew that everything was different...

.

The main peak of Lianhua Shanzhai, in the residence of the Buddha's mother.After returning from Laiwu, the mother of the Buddha has been recuperating from her injuries, and it took about ten days before she basically recovered.Elder Tang finally saw the Buddha Mother who had been shutting herself out.

"That person has already returned to Jinan..." Seeing the Buddha Mother's gloomy expression, like a stone sculpture, Elder Tang naturally knew how to mobilize her emotions.

"..." The Buddha's mother nodded and did not speak, which was expected.

"This time the information is quite timely, but no one expected that that guy could hide so many cavalry in the canyon without knowing it!" Mentioning this matter, Elder Tang felt endlessly regretful. The information he got was that Wang Xian only brought Leading more than 100 people through Mount Taiyi, it is likely that a surprise attack will be launched on the way to Tai'an.

At that time, it was already that morning when the information was obtained, even if Elder Tang wanted to mobilize troops, it was too late. He wanted to take it slowly, but the Buddha mother insisted on fighting Wang Xian.Elder Tang took into account the emotions of the Buddha mother and Wang Xian's cunning, knowing that such an opportunity is fleeting and will never appear again.He felt that with more than 1000 elite cavalry under his command, he should be able to kill more than 100 of Wang Xian's men.So I agree with the proposition of the Buddha mother.

However, Elder Tang never expected that Wang Xian also hid his trump card. The number of Jinyiwei he saw at that time was as high as more than seven hundred riders!But the arrow was on the string, and he had to launch it. Elder Tang felt that after all, his own army still had an advantage, and he was chasing death and chasing the north. As long as he clung to them tightly, and waited for the troops loyal to the King of Han to surround him, Wang Xian would still have a dead end.

However, Elder Tang never expected that Wang Xian dared to ambush them on the way to escape, and even wiped out more than a thousand of his horses with inferior forces, and even the Buddha's mother was injured!At that time, Elder Tang still had the last ray of hope, which was that Wang Xian's tribe, which was at the end of its strength, would be wiped out by other troops.At that time, a considerable part of the army had already entered the battlefield. If all went well, Wang Xian would probably be blocked outside Tai'an City. However, it rained heavily that night, and those troops lost their way completely.At daybreak, the Jining Guard suddenly reappeared across the border, which shocked the shady troops, and completely gave up the idea of ​​taking advantage of the fire...

"A bunch of trash!" The Buddha's mother was even more depressed. After this battle, she knew very well that with her own martial arts, she could never defeat the two women beside Wang Xian, and there was no possibility of a successful assassination.Moreover, after Wang Xian suffered this loss, he might never attack rashly again and give himself a chance to annihilate him.In short, if you want to kill him in the future, I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult!
"After this time, if we want to defeat Wang Xian, there is no shortcut. We can only get in touch with the congregation in various places and speak with strength." This is what Elder Tang really wanted to say to the Buddha.

"..." Mother Buddha could no longer refute her father, she nodded slowly and said, "Understood."

"The injury is healed, let's go down the mountain quickly," Elder Tang was overjoyed, thinking that if this incident can make the Buddha's mother obedient, it will be worth it: "Wang Xian will not sit still, I am afraid there will be a big one." Action, we must hurry up."

"Okay." Mother Buddha nodded indifferently. She hated her father's control over her and relied on it.Without her father's guidance, she would definitely be lost in the ocean of hatred and destroy herself long ago.

Le'an Prefecture, Hanwang Mansion.

'Clang! Zhu Gaoxu kicked a half-person-high Jingdezhen vase into pieces, and roared angrily: "Bai Lianjiao, these brainless idiots, acted so rashly, it is really impossible to plan! What a good opportunity, let them waste it like this!" Already!" Originally, Zhu Gaoxu had arranged several guards in Qingzhou, and planned to kill Wang Xian in Qingzhou at all costs!

Unexpectedly, Wang Xian disappeared in Zhangqiu!When Zhu Gaoxu heard the news, it was someone from the White Lotus Sect who told him, and now his heart was in his throat. On the one hand, Wang Xian's reckless risk was a god-given opportunity to kill him, and he could also blame the White Lotus Sect!But on the other hand, he didn't trust the ability of the White Lotus Sect, and ordered them to delay as much as possible, while he quickly mobilized his troops, trying to encircle and wipe out Wang Xian in the Taiyi Mountains!

Who knew that the White Lotus Sect acted without authorization, and ended up losing a lot, and even let Wang Xian escape.After all, Zhu Gaoxu was in Le'an Prefecture, and it would take time for the order to reach the various ministries. When they were mobilized, Jining Guard's troops had already appeared. As a result, His Royal Highness King Han's deployment of troops and generals was all useless.Seeing that Wang Xian finally slipped out of his lair, he could have his body broken into thousands of pieces, but he ran away again, it would be strange if His Highness the King of Han didn't get angry!
