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.

And 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 is worried that the barbarians will 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 was thinking here alone, and even after thinking for a long time, he might not come up with a good solution.

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 wanted to leave this ghost place of Yancheng for a long time."

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 followed King Bei every day, and even when King Bei had sex with his wives and concubines, she was outside listening."

"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 lure King Bei to Baihua Tower. This way we will be more likely to succeed in the assassination."

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 said with a smile: "If we can lure those two people out of the palace, it will be a good thing for our Blood Moon Tower."

"I'm going to prepare a surprise for King Bei."

Zhou Hanwen is not the kind of person who is stubborn. If he wants to take revenge on King Bei, he doesn't necessarily have to kill King Bei immediately.

If the two mysterious masters and Chu Yuqin could be lured out of the palace, Xueyuelou could enter the palace and kill them. He wanted King Bei to see the corpses of his wives and concubines with his own eyes.

Moreover, Xueyuelou came to Beijun this time for another important purpose, which was to obtain soap perfume and the method of making soap.

As long as they can lure out the mysterious master, they will have enough time to steal the method of making soap and perfume from Beiwangfu.

In Zhou Hanwen's opinion at this time, Beiwang Mansion only had one grandmaster who was slightly more powerful. Without that grandmaster, Beiwang Mansion would be a lamb to be slaughtered.

At this time, Wang Qingci raised the corners of his mouth slightly, forming a weak arc on his lips, and said with a slight smile: "In that case, I will let King Bei come to Baihua Tower tonight."

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

Wang Qingci said: "Master Zhou, there's no need to be polite. This is what I should do."
