Early the next morning, news came from Qilian City, asking Yan Xiong and others to go there to discuss matters.
When Yan Xiong arrived at the Qilian Eighteen Cities Camp, everyone else was already seated.
He is the last one again today.
"Some people really think they are important. They are always the last to arrive at the parliament. They really treat us as minions!"
As soon as he came in, Ding Huanri's voice, which Yan Xiong felt was like a broken chicken's cry, rang out.
"That's right, at such a young age, you don't know what politeness is!"
Yingchou also interjected.
Yan Xiong still ignored them and just found a seat to sit down.
What's the point of talking nonsense if you can't start a fight.
If it were really possible, he would like to have a big fight with Ding Huanri immediately and twist his head off and kick it like a ball.
"Okay, don't be so quick to talk. I invited you all here before I set off, but it was because of what happened last night!"
As soon as Qi Liancheng finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes to him, and everyone was curious about what the interrogation had revealed.
"The interrogation results are all here, everyone, please take a look!"
Qi Liancheng swung the paper and several posts flew directly towards the crowd.
"I did not keep the interrogation results to myself. Master Xinjue can testify to this."
As if he was afraid that everyone would mistakenly think that he was hiding it, he spoke again.
"Amitabha, Donor Qilian did not lie. This post was written by me."
The mind hears and proves the truth.
Yan Xiong didn't pay attention to them, but looked at the memorial in his hand.
He still believed that Qi Liancheng would be a good commander.
As the commander-in-chief, one can not only gain fame and make the Eighteen Cities of Qilian famous throughout the world, but also get attention from various alliances, such as military merits and so on.
Therefore, he didn't believe he would mess around.
After opening the letter, Yan Xiong frowned immediately.
Before he could speak, Qi Liancheng spoke again.
"I think you have all read this. What countermeasures do you have? Should we leave it alone and continue to send troops to Xianshui, or should we capture these Fuso assassins here and then leave?"
Yan Xiong closed the letter without saying anything, and his frown relaxed.
It’s not that Qi Liancheng didn’t find out anything from the interrogation. On the contrary, he did find out.
The assassin confessed that besides him, there were other assassins hidden in the entire Western Route Army.
The assassin didn't know where exactly the assassin was. He only knew that there were other assassins hiding in the Western Army like him, and there should be more than one.
That assassin had sneaked into the Sixteen Villages of Dongting six days ago.
Some of the others joined other forces earlier or later than him.
According to what he meant, there was at least one assassin hidden in each of the forces present.
Everyone frowned when there was an assassin who was good at assassination hiding in the house.
Only Wu Qishang remained expressionless, instead he looked at others with a gloating look on his face.
One of his Sixteen Villages of Dongting had been exposed, so he felt that he should be able to sit back and watch the fight between the two tigers.
"I think we should wait a little longer until we catch the assassin before heading to Xianshui."
Ding Huanri spoke.
"Tsk! How do I catch him? I've told you in advance that unless someone dies, don't even think of asking me to investigate! My Gu can't predict the future, it needs clues too!"
Yingchouguai said with a smile.
"What then? Do you mean to set off as usual?"
Ding Huanri said with a frown.
"I don't know either." Yingchou looked like he was listening to you.
This guy is planning to cause trouble for Qi Liancheng.
He was already dissatisfied with Qi Liancheng being the commander-in-chief, and if Qi Liancheng handled the situation inappropriately, he would probably be ready to attack.
"What did Lord Zhao say?"
Qi Liancheng looked at Zhao Gui in Zhaoqi Palace.
Zhaoqi Palace is a sect jointly formed by two aristocratic families.
This sect has two palace masters, and the one who came this time is Zhao Gui, the patriarch of the Zhao family.
After this guy came, for some reason he didn't talk to anyone. Apart from nodding when meeting people, he almost never spoke, as if he was a mute.
“I think we’d better keep going!
I received news that Xianshui's current condition is not good. If we are too slow, the city may be breached.
By then, Fuso will have control of the Xianshui, and with the help of the Xianshui ships, they will be able to march straight to Langzhou upstream.
Besides, we may have to fight them in the Yangtze River by then.
As far as I know, among our sects, except for the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Sixteen Villages of Dongting, the rest of us are landlubbers.
Fuso itself came across the sea, and they are obviously elite in underwater combat.
You don't want to fight them on the water, do you?"
When Zhao Guiyi spoke, everyone was shocked.
They hadn't even thought of this.
Yan Xiong couldn't help but look at him again.
Sure enough, the most dangerous thing is the stuffy ones.
Judging from his analysis, this guy is obviously quite intelligent.
But he didn't say anything and looked as if he didn't exist.
This kind of person is very dangerous.
Generally speaking, this kind of person is very cruel. If he doesn't take action, it's fine. But once he takes action, it will definitely be earth-shattering and will kill you instantly.
"Yes, what Lord Zhao said is what I thought. My suggestion is to set off immediately, after all, the situation on the front line is tight.
Moreover, besides us, the other two armies were also assassinated one after another last night.
From this we can see that the Fuso people’s purpose is definitely to delay us.
Since they want to delay us, we can't do as they wish.
Let's go straight to the original plan.
Of course, all of our factions cannot let down their guard and must remain vigilant at all times. If there is an assassination, we must fight if we can, and flee if we cannot. As long as we can hold on for even a minute, other factions like us will react quickly and come to our assistance immediately.
Besides, I don’t want what happened at the Sixteen Villages of Dongting to happen again last night.
We are an alliance and we need to trust each other.
If it happens again, no matter who it is, I will kill them on the spot!"
Qi Liancheng's voice was filled with murderous intent.
"What do you think of my opinion?"
After saying that, he looked at everyone.
Seeing that no one objected for a long time, he said:
“In addition, since Fuso has launched an assassination plot against us, I intend to give them a taste of their own medicine.
I plan to recruit experts from all of you, and have my Lu Renjia lead us to the Fuso army in Xianshui to carry out the assassination.
Don't worry, everyone. The people killed by your men will be counted as military merits for the various factions. I, Qi Liancheng, will never be greedy for merits."
Qi Liancheng's words caused everyone below to fall silent.
No one wanted to send anyone, but they all felt that the plan was feasible, so no one dared to be the first to object.
"I agree. My brother Zhao Qing can go!"
At this time Zhao Gui suddenly spoke.
Zhao Gui suddenly spoke, causing Yan Xiong's eyes to freeze.
Not only him, but everyone else also looked serious.
It turns out that Zhaoqi Palace and the Eighteen Cities of Qilian are in the same group.
This also explains why Zhao Gui, who had been silent, spoke as soon as Qi Liancheng asked the question just now.
It turns out that the two factions have actually colluded.
