Xiao Zhaolin naturally also knew the news.
Unlike Su Lijin, when he heard the news, his face showed inexplicable joy.
Xiao Shengxing is under siege, and his life or death is uncertain. Isn't this an opportunity to seize power that comes right to him?
He had painstakingly planned for so long, and Xiao Shengxing was safe and sound, but he didn't expect that he would die this time!
God really helps him!
"Humph, it's better for you to die on the battlefield and never come back."
With a cold snort, Xiao Zhaolin said with a smug look on his face, "When the time comes, I will give you a cenotaph."
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Xiao Zhaolin really couldn't sit still. If he didn't make arrangements now, when would he make them?
His eyes turned and he immediately went to Su Lijin's side.
That woman is still useful.
"Shiqi, the emperor's life or death is unknown, and the Daliang Kingdom is in danger."
Xiao Zhaolin said these words with a look of deep sorrow, his face full of hypocritical sadness.
"What do you want to say? I don't think you came here purely to express your sorrow."
Su Lijin sneered mercilessly.
She wanted to say, "Stop acting in front of me."
Xiao Zhaolin's sadness was just a pretense. For him, it was a great thing that the emperor fell into the trap.
Thinking of this, the expression on her face became even colder, almost more indifferent than usual.
Completely unaware of her change, Xiao Zhaolin narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Shiqi, your abilities shouldn't go to waste. How about joining me?"
"The Emperor is afraid he will not return alive. If you surrender to me, I will use you and reward you with everything you want when I become the Emperor. How do you think?"
Sure enough, his wolfish ambitions were exposed!
She said that Xiao Zhaolin would not come to her for no reason. It turned out that he came to lobby her to help him.
Humph, wishful thinking!
Su Lijin's lips curled up, and just when Xiao Zhaolin thought she would agree, she suddenly felt a pain in her neck and fainted.
Putting her hands away, Su Lijin looked coldly at the person on the ground.
If she couldn't kill this man yet, she wouldn't want to just knock him out.
But who should I contact now?
How can we save Xiao Shengxing?
Su Lijin paced around anxiously, her thoughts in a mess, but she couldn't think of anyone who could help her at this time.
Su Moyuan also went to the front line. Now, who can he contact?
"Are you worried about the war on the front lines?"
A voice suddenly came.
Su Lijin turned around in surprise, only to see the scholarly Tan Tai Chun.
"Why are you here?"
Why did Tan Tai Chun come to the border?
"Let me help you."
"Thank you so much for your thought!"
Su Lijin did not take his words seriously and felt anxious.
In her opinion, it was okay to let Tan Tai Chun inquire about the affairs of the martial arts world or the privacy of the wealthy and powerful, but on this battlefield, Tan Tai Chun would be of no use at all.
Obviously, Tan Tai Chun also understood what she meant, but he did not show any displeasure on his face.
"It seems that I still need to consult with the military advisor."
Su Lijin had made up her mind. Now, all she could do was see if she could come up with a useful solution.
However, as soon as she moved, she was stopped by Tan Tai Chun.
Su Lijin frowned: "I don't have time now, you can rest here for a while, and we can talk about it when I come back if you have anything."
Having said that, he was about to leave.
However, Tan Tai Chun showed no intention of giving way and said, "There are Mongolian soldiers on both sides of the canyon. Your Majesty is now in a dilemma. If you don't provide timely support, it will be very dangerous."
These words immediately made Su Lijin stop in her tracks.
The situation analyzed by Tan Tai Chun was exactly the situation Xiao Shengxing was in at the moment. He was right. They were indeed surrounded from both sides and could not advance or retreat.
She was very surprised that Tan Tai Chun even knew the situation over there?
"How do you know all this?" Su Lijin couldn't help but ask the question in her mind.
Tan Tai Chun did not answer her. Instead, he said with a calculating look, "I guess the emperor must have sent others to the Mongolian camp to attack Huanglong directly."
Xiao Shengxing sent people to the Mongolian camp?
That is to say, he still had a backup plan. As long as the Mongolian camp succeeded, he would be able to escape from the predicament.
Thinking of this, Su Lijin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If this is the case, then there is no need to worry too much for now. Just wait for the Mongolian camp to take action.
However, just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she became nervous again because of Tan Tai Chun's next sentence.
Tan Tai Chun said, "However, the Mongols now have twice as many troops as before. I believe the Emperor did not anticipate this. Even if someone were to go to the Mongol camp, it would be difficult."
These words made Su Lijin's heart sink to the bottom.
She glared at Tan Tai Chun, looking as if she was going to kill him: "Can you please stop saying half of what you say?"
Why interrupt the conversation when it's so important?
Her heart was hanging in the air like this, up and down, it was very uncomfortable, okay?
If it weren't for their close personal relationship, Su Lijin really wanted to let Tan Tai Chun experience her power so that he would never torture others like this again.
Tan Tai Chun coughed lightly and tactfully did not refute, knowing full well that the man in front of him was ready to stab him at this moment.
He quickly got to the point and immediately said, "However, this matter is not impossible to solve."
"How do we crack it? Tell me!"
Hearing that there was hope, Su Lijin stared at him closely, afraid of missing a single word.
She really hoped that the siege on Xiao Shengxing's side could be lifted immediately and that he could be rescued from the encirclement.
The king of a country was trapped in a war. If anything went wrong, the entire Liang State would definitely be in turmoil.
And she herself absolutely could not watch him die on the battlefield!
"The Mongolian commander is very careful about his life. If you can burn their food supplies and cooperate with General Su who is sent to raid the main camp, then..."
As Tan Tai Chun spoke, there was a deep gleam in his eyes.
"You mean, burning the food supplies will make them panic, and then we can take advantage of the opportunity to do something?"
Su Lijin's eyes lit up and her heart kept beating. This method was indeed a way to win in risk!
"That's right!" Giving her an admiring look, Tan Tai Chun continued, "Given the commander's fear of death, he'll undoubtedly be thrown into disarray by the surprise attack and the burning of his provisions. The Mongol army will undoubtedly be in disarray by then. You can take advantage of this chaos to steal the commander's smoke signal and force the Mongol troops besieging the emperor on the front lines to retreat!"
Indeed, as long as the besieging Mongolian soldiers retreated, Xiao Shengxing would be saved!
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Su Lijin set off immediately.
Tan Tai Chun stood in front of her and handed her something.
"What's this?"
She was puzzled, and in front of her was a treasure bag.
"Stab away the danger. If it succeeds, that's good."
"If you fail and are captured by the Mongols, then you can open this treasure bag."
