In the river, Wang Lin finally swam to the shore holding on to the wooden board. After climbing onto the embankment, he felt a sharp pain in his arm. It turned out that he had just been hit by shrapnel. Fortunately, his tibia was not injured. King Lin covered his wound with his painful hand. Seeing that there were only a few hundred Lin troops crossing the river on the shore, he hurriedly gathered them and ran to Shiguo. After running for about a mile, King Lin saw Shi Guo's troops. It seemed that Bai Xiao had indeed come to join him as promised, but he didn't expect such a situation. Bai Xiao heard the roar of cannons. Although he had heard about the divine cannons for a long time, it was the first time for Bai Xiao to see the power of the divine cannons. He was shocked when he saw that the cannons on the warships hit Lin Jun without the ability to fight back. , if these cannons were aimed at their own troops, would they be so vulnerable? Bai Xiao became frightened in his heart, wondering what he would do if Qian Xiaoxing sought revenge on him. When he was feeling uneasy, he saw King Lin running over with hundreds of remnants of his army. Before Lin Jun could reach, he was blocked by Shi Jun's soldiers. King Lin shouted loudly: "I am King Lin, and I want to see Bai Xiao!" Bai Xiao whispered a few words to the guards around him, and after a while, Shi Jun let him go. King Lin came to Bai Xiao alone, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to speak. If he could bring 70,000 soldiers here, he could still negotiate with Bai Xiao about the bargaining chip for an alliance. Now there are only a few hundred Lin soldiers. , it¡¯s hard to say how Bai Xiao will treat himself. King Lin thought about his previous disrespect to Bai Xiao, and now he really regretted it. Seeing Bai Xiao's indifference and silence, he had to say first: "King Shi, thank you for coming to join me in alliance, but my 70,000 Lin army is gone" Bai Xiao glanced at King Lin. The proud King Lin also had such a downturn in the past. He felt a little happy and a little sad. He was happy that King Lin lost, but he was sad that after King Lin lost, Qian Xiaoxing would come and beat him. Bai Xiao said helplessly: "Since the 70,000 Lin army is gone, there is no need to discuss an alliance, so let's say goodbye!" King Lin hurriedly shouted: "Bai Xiao, you can't ignore death! Where do you want us to go? " The more miserable King Lin became, the happier Bai Xiao felt. He thought that it would be better if he didn't settle old scores with King Lin. King Lin still didn't give up. Maybe King Lin still had some value, so He smiled and said, "What King Lin said is right. You can't just die without rescuing someone. Well, I'll take you with me." After hearing this, King Lin thanked Bai Xiao gratefully and followed Shi Jun's troops back three miles. road. Shi Jun sent 150,000 troops this time to form an alliance with Lin Jun. Bai Xiao originally wanted to use the river as a natural barrier to stop Si Jun, but Lin Jun was almost wiped out, which disrupted his battle plan. Bai Xiao settled down After King Lin was healed, he meditated alone in the tent, thinking about what to do next. At this time, General Shi Jun came in to report and said: "Your Majesty, we have arranged sentries along the river. There is currently no movement from the army. It seems that they will not cross the river for a while." Bai Xiao sighed helplessly and said: "Sooner or later, Qian Xiaoxing will We have to cross the river." The general replied: "Your Majesty, the army's troops are only over 100,000. With the river as a natural barrier, we should be able to hold it." Bai Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "If it were other troops from the other side, it would be possible, but we can. Our opponent is Qian Xiaoxing. As you saw today, the army has many warships, and those cannons are very powerful. When we stationed on the riverside, we became targets for their cannons. " "This, this" the general said. Time doesn¡¯t know how to answer. Bai Xiao closed his eyes sadly, waved his hand and said: "You go down first, let me think about it." After the general retreated, Bai Xiao thought about it all night, and the next day he found King Lin and saw King Lin. His face was pale, obviously due to excessive bleeding from the wound. When King Lin saw Bai Xiao coming to see him, he hurriedly got up from the bed to greet him. Bai Xiao sat down and asked: "King Lin, I understand that Qian Xiaoxing is your son-in-law. You guys How did the fight begin? " "Oh, I'm just too greedy." King Lin regretted deeply and said, "When Qian Xiaoxing attacked Hu State, I forced him to cede territory for peace, so he held a grudge. He is so powerful, I won't force him. No, I won't let him go, I will kill him even in Hu Guoshan! Then he said: "Then I have wronged King Lin today, come here, tie me up!" Immediately two soldiers from Shi Jun came in from outside, grabbed King Lin and started to tie him up. King Lin resisted and shouted: "Bai "Xiao, why are you tying me up? What do you want to do?" Bai Xiao showed a sinister face and said, "I am also trying to protect myself. Qian Xiaoxing hates you so much, so I will sacrifice you to Qian Xiaoxing. As the saying goes, reach out." If I don't hit the gift giver, maybe Qian Xiaoxing will let me go." King Lin was immediately tied up. Seeing that he couldn't struggle, King Lin cursed: "Despicable villain, just?If you give me to Qian Xiaoxing, Qian Xiaoxing will not let you go, and your end will be the same as mine, haha, haha" Bai Xiao replied: "Yes, you are right, if If I don't send you to Qian Xiaoxing, he will never let me go. If I send you there, there may be a chance, but then I will be wronging King Lin! " King Lin kept scolding, and his body was tied like a rice dumpling and escorted out by the soldiers. He got on the carriage and came to the river. He changed to a boat and went to the Si Jun camp on the other side. " In the Si Jun camp, Qian Xiaoxing, Sima Yiqing and Lu Shengzhong were warming up around the fire. It was already January and the weather was getting colder. The three of them were grilling meat around the fire, drinking and talking about things. Sima Yiqing was in a good mood and was happy. Said: "Currently, there are no Lin Army troops in the territory of Lin State. Although King Lin has not been found, in a practical sense, the entire territory of Lin State has been occupied. Lin State can be said to be destroyed. " Qian Xiaoxing warmed his hands against the fire and said: "And Shi Guo, let's fight quickly. It's really not a human life to have to go out to fight in such a cold weather. " "Haha, it would be great if the seventh brother comes up with some more clever tricks. "After Lu Shengzhong finished speaking, he handed a piece of barbecue to Qian Xiaoxing. The three of them were talking when Hu Suoyuan came to report and said, "Chief of Staff, Bai Xiao sent someone a letter. " Sima Yiqing guessed: "Bai Xiao seems to be scared, and he must have sent a surrender letter. " "I really don't want it to be a surrender letter. "Qian Xiaoxing took the letter and hurriedly opened it and read it. The letter read: General Qian of the State of Si has met, and Shan Du misses him very much. Today I heard that your army has eliminated Lin's army. I came here to congratulate you and send you a message. I would like to ask General Qian to accept the congratulatory gift and sign it as Bai Xiao, "A gift?" What kind of tricks is Bai Xiao doing? Where are the gifts? "Qian Xiaoxing asked. "Outside. "As soon as Hu Suoyuan waved his hand, someone escorted King Lin over. Qian Xiaoxing also met King Lin a few times. He was a little surprised when he saw King Lin. He couldn't help laughing and said: "It turns out that King Lin was sent to me by Bai Xiao. What a gift! " When King Lin saw Qian Xiaoxing, he was furious and said: "Qian Xiaoxing, if you want to kill, then kill, if you want to cut, then cut into pieces. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated! " "Haha, you have a bit of backbone. Qian Xiaoxing ignored King Lin, turned to Sima Yiqing and said, "Father-in-law, help me analyze what chess Bai Xiao played." Sima Yiqing replied: "Bai Xiao is showing his kindness to you and wants to use this to influence you not to hit him." " Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help laughing and said: "Bai Xiao killed King Shi and took his throne. King Shi was my brother-in-law. How could this hatred be resolved so easily? Bai Xiao was too naive! I accepted this gift, but the battle still has to be fought! " "Well, nothing can stop us from unifying China! "Sima Yiqing said firmly. King Lin couldn't help but be happy when he heard it, and said: "Yes, yes, kill Bai Xiao quickly! " "Why do you want you to be so happy! "Qian Xiaoxing really didn't have a good impression of King Lin. He remembered that when he stood by Cangqiong Pass, King Lin sent 10,000 cavalry to cut off his retreat, and he almost gave up Cangqiong Pass. Later, when he came back from Shi Guo to marry his wife, he passed by Lin Guo He also arrested himself to exchange land with the Hu State, and after attacking Shandu, he still threatened him, stabbing himself in the back every time. Now it is certain and certain that King Lin is not a good person. Sima Yiqing asked. : "Xian son-in-law, what are you going to do with King Lin? " "I really want to kill him, but for Lan Xiaocui, I promised her to spare King Lin's life. " Qian Xiaoxing said. Sima Yiqing was noncommittal after hearing this, and just said a few words slowly: "To cut the grass, we need to get rid of the roots! " "Why don't I know this truth? It's just that I have my word first and I can't break my promise to others. Qian Xiaoxing was very helpless and continued: "But I have a way. As long as King Lin is not exposed to people outside, there will be no hidden dangers. I am going to send him to live on the island." " Sima Yiqing nodded and said: "That is considered house arrest. For people like King Lin, it is better to be cautious. I agree with your method. " After the negotiation, Qian Xiaoxing wrote a reply to Bai Xiao, writing only a few words: Keep the head on your neck and wait for me to pick it up!
