"Wouldn't it be better to be like this earlier, but if you want to mess around, don't you have to tell the truth honestly in the end?"

Song Zichen patted him on the shoulder, pulled him up, and pouted his lips to signal him to sit down at the table: "Tell me, what else do you want to tell me besides those words used to bluff people?"

"Most of the news that person sent me was about your left army. I sent someone to follow the person who sent the news. Although he intentionally circled around the right army, he finally returned to the left army. I I also sneaked over to check on the general of your left army. I remember that he was called Xue Zhao. He looked like a timid person, but he didn't seem to have the courage to have such a blatant affair with a foreign enemy. How you think about it depends on your own plan.”

Guan Tiantai could only sigh helplessly, and he didn't want to show off anything, so he spread his hands and told all he knew.Song Zichen looked at Mu Qiu thoughtfully. The two of them understood something in their eyes, but neither of them said a word. Guan Tiantai looked back and forth between the two, shook his head and said with a smile: "It seems that I disturbed you." You——forget it, let the two of you discuss this matter privately, and I will tell you about my own plan after you get to the frontier."

Seeing that he had finally corrected his attitude, Song Zichen no longer tried to make things difficult for him, but just nodded his head to signal him to continue talking.Guan Tiantai pondered for a while, then said slowly: "According to the current strength of the Xiongnu, if there is a real fight, no matter how weak your army is, the Huns are doomed to have no strength to fight head-on, and can only find ways to attack from the flank. So The best position for you is not to approach the city with troops, but to lure your troops to the border without sending them out. The Xiongnu can neither attack you nor get rid of the oppression you have brought."

"That's a good point—but aren't you also a Hun, why did you help us instead?"

Song Zichen raised his eyebrows in surprise, tapped on the table and said slowly: "I'll tell you the truth——Actually, that's what I had originally thought, but when you said that, I didn't dare to do it, because I was afraid that you would make trouble again." There will be some conspiracy..."

"What kind of conspiracy can I have? This is a serious conspiracy. Anyone can do it, and whoever does it, we Huns can't do anything about it."

Guan Tiantai waved his hands helplessly, looked at him seriously and said, "Anyone can come up with this idea, even if I don't tell you, you must have such a plan—"

"Actually, it's not entirely true. I originally planned to suppress the border with soldiers for ten and a half months. When you can't take it anymore, we will pretend to be arrogant and aggressive. At this time, you will definitely attack from the side. And when you send out elite sneak attacks When the time comes, I can go out and consume an army, separate your elite from the rear, wipe out the front army, and then poison the water in the rear."

Song Zichen chuckled, and spoke slowly and unhurriedly.His tone was only calm, but Guan Tiantai couldn't help but feel chills running down his back. He stared at him in amazement for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "It's true that people can't be judged by their appearance-I didn't expect you to see him." You are loyal and honest, yet you are as sinister and shameless as your brother..."

"Brother Guan, you, who just ambushed at the mouth of the valley to encircle and annihilate us, chased us both off the cliff, and are still captured, are you calling me shameless here?"

Song Zichen looked at him in disbelief, sighed exaggeratedly, shook his head and said, "Master Zeng said that I examine myself three times a day, and I don't think you will examine yourself once in three years—we are two armies at war. How insidious and how did it come about. Could it be that the two sides have to set up a battle, and I give an order, and then the two sides start fighting hand-to-hand?"

"you--"

Guan Tiantai was at a loss for words for a moment, and after a long while he sighed heavily: "Forget it, I can't say anything to you anyway, so I just take back that sentence—then are you still planning to do this now?"

"Depending on the situation, this is actually just a bad strategy. I don't intend to really ask the brothers I bring to die—but you told me just now that the Zuo Army is unreliable. I can test it out on the road. If the Zuo Army is really I can't keep it anymore, and I don't mind asking them to do this job of sending them to death..."

Song Zichen raised his eyebrows slightly, leaned back, and responded unhurriedly.Guan Tiantai's eyes were already bloody, he gritted his teeth and looked at him, and after a while he said hoarsely: "I have a suggestion, you might as well listen to me first - the ancestors fought for thousands of years, there is no You can't be so vicious..."

"You say what you say, if it sounds reasonable to me, maybe I'll be convinced by you."

Song Zichen chuckled with unknown meaning, and nodded with a half push.Guan Tiantai felt some cold sweat dripping from his palms, clenched his fists for a long while before he said in a low voice: "I just need your soldiers to suppress the border and help me create pressure inside the Xiongnu—the Huns are not like you are a country, but Once the alliance of several tribes faces such a situation, it is impossible to unite immediately. Instead, it will be the first to break up internally. I want to take advantage of the chaos to seize the Khan's position. This is my only chance, and I only need to If I can get that position, I will retreat immediately, and I will no longer be an enemy of the Central Plains for the rest of my life..."

"Not enough. I originally had the ability to make you no longer be enemies of the Central Plains for generations. Why did you follow what you said, not only letting the tiger go back to the mountain with my own hands, but also continuing to raise the tiger?"

Song Zichen chuckled, folded his arms and shook his head.Guan Tiantai didn't expect that this person who was stupid enough to lose money during the day would suddenly become so shrewd. He felt cold sweat running down his back, and for a moment he couldn't calm down no matter what: "You say your conditions, I will Consider whether you can agree to—"

"You have also said before that even if it is a condition that cannot be agreed, you will temporarily agree to it as a way to delay the army. As for whether it can be achieved at that time, we can only see when the time comes."

Song Zichen obviously didn't intend to let him fool him like this, so he raised his chin slightly and spoke unhurriedly.Blood flashed in Guan Tiantai's eyes, and he finally understood his intentions. He clenched his teeth and remained silent for a while, before he said in a low voice, "The Xiongnu soldiers retreated a hundred miles and gave up the Yinshan Grassland, allowing you to garrison there... This is already My bottom line is over, if you don't—"

"It's a deal, that's it."

Before he could finish his words, Song Zichen agreed happily, apparently already waiting for his words.Guan Tiantai didn't expect that he would make things difficult in every possible way before, and now he would agree so happily at this time, he was stunned for a long time before he whispered again: "Why did you agree so happily this time? The grassland is only suitable for grazing. You all You are someone who is used to living in the fertile land of the Central Plains, so you are sure that there will be people willing to station troops there?"

"I don't care if anyone is willing to go, after all, I intend to go."

Song Zichen replied with a light smile, leaned back, shook his head and said with a light smile, "I'm just an empty prince now, and I'm going to hand over the military power after this battle. I don't have my own subordinates, nor If you don’t have your own fief, if you can have a piece of grassland to graze sheep, it’s better than nothing, don’t you think?”

"I see—you have thought so far..."

Guan Tiantai looked at him in astonishment, shook his head in disbelief and sighed softly, only to feel that he had been deceived by this guy's disguise before: "It turns out that what you planned was not just this battle, you wanted to -"

"What I want to do is my business, you just have to do your own thing well."

Song Zichen patted him on the shoulder with a light smile, didn't ask him to continue talking, but just tapped on the table and said, "You only said that you want my soldiers to suppress the situation, but you never said that the two of us will follow you to the Huns to do something— —This is the main event, don’t just interrupt and fool the past, you know?”

"I didn't intend to fool the past."

Guan Tiantai still hadn't recovered from the blow just now.He lowered his head in silence for a while, finally sighed softly, shook his head helplessly and said, "Actually, I asked you to go because I really don't have anyone I can trust. The guard who can help you——When I came to your Central Plains, I was the only one, and there was no one around me who could help you. You stared at me like a prisoner, and I don’t even want to develop my own men..."

"I can feel this kind of feeling. In fact, I am only one more person than you. It was because of my good luck that I met Mu Qiu. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will only be worse than you. "

Song Zichen couldn't help thinking of his helpless situation in the previous life, shook his head and smiled helplessly, and sighed softly: "It's just that I realized this much later than you, and suddenly found that there was no one around me. No, that feeling is really uncomfortable..."

"You've only lived a few years, how can you talk so old-fashioned, as if you've lived your whole life..."

After hearing his words, Guan Tiantai's eyes softened a little, he looked at him helplessly, and then continued to talk about his plan: "When we get to the Huns, I want to go back to find my brother first, but he may not be willing." Talk to me well——if Mu Qiu is here, I think it’s okay to tell him to be honest. I won’t stand in front as soon as I come up. Since my brother wants to fight for that position so much, I will let him go It's just that what he wants to do and how he wants to fight is up to me."

"It's really like that. I only hope that when you really see your brother, you can still have this confidence. Don't be soft-hearted at every turn. When the time comes, all previous efforts will be wasted and it will be a joke."

Song Zichen couldn't help pouring another sentence of cold water, looking at Guan Tiantai's face that changed slightly, but he couldn't help laughing and shaking his head, waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, don't be angry--in fact, I'm also laughing at fifty steps Baibu. You see, I hate Song Zixuan so much, but seeing him, I actually don't have the confidence I have now, and my heart is really uncomfortable..."
