Li Hong and the ministers of the Zhen Country were at a loss as to what to do with the current situation. None of them could think of a good idea.

Finally, the Secretary General Qin Shu took a step forward carefully and said with her hands cupped in front of her chest, "Big... Great King, a million troops are already at the gates of the city. Our city guards are less than four hundred thousand. Difficult to resist, from your point of view, we... "Only by negotiating with the allied army can we go this way ?"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Li Hong slapped the table hard, interrupting Qin Shu's words. Qin Shu told him to negotiate with Li Hong, this was absolutely unacceptable to him. With the current situation of the Zhen Country, he had no way to negotiate at all, which meant that he had surrendered, which meant he had been pulled down from the throne, and even had to beg for forgiveness from Yin Zhun. How could Li Hong accept such humiliation?

"The enemy has already besieged the capital, and the life and death of the Zhen Country are hanging by a thread. As a vassal of Dazhen, you do not plan to break the enemy's plan, and instead share the worries of a nation. What is the use of this king staying here to wait for a person who is afraid of death?! " Saying that, Li Hong raised his voice and said: "Where are the blade and axe hands? Drag the treacherous official out and kill him! "

At Li Hong's order, several guards outside the hall rushed in, two of them grabbing onto Qin Shu's arms, and left without saying a word.

Qin Shu was so frightened that her face turned pale. Her body trembled as she repeatedly shouted, "Mercy, your highness! This humble subject has been wronged! Please have mercy, your highness!"

Right at this time, Li Dan hastily walked out and waved to the guards who were pulling Qin Shu out. He then cupped his hands towards Li Hong and said: "King Father, Sir Qin's admonishment ?. There may be something wrong with that, but it's also because of your loyalty to the King Father ? "

Loyalty? Li Hong raised his eyebrows, he could not see any loyalty in Qin Shu. Without waiting for him to speak, Li Dan continued: "Furthermore, now that we are surrounded by the allied army, and have even broken through the Huaning and the army in charge of the city, the city is in a state of panic. If King Father were to kill the Minister now, it would probably cause the hearts of the people in the city to become even more chaotic, I hope King Father will think twice."

If it was someone else who was advising him, he might not have heard, but his son was the one who spoke out to plead for mercy, and furthermore, what Li Dan said was not without reason.

Li Hong pondered in silence for a moment, the cold look on his face gradually relaxed. Raising his head, he waved to the guards, and said: "All of you can leave!"

After that, he glared at Qin Shu, but didn't say anything further. He looked at his subjects and said, "In the future, if anyone dares to speak lightly of peace talks, don't blame this king for turning ruthless and punishing them for nothing!"

The ministers of the Zhen Country all shrunk their necks in fright, and all of them lowered their heads, not daring to even breathe. Qin Shu shrank her shoulders and quietly went back to her seat. At the same time, she also glanced at Li Dan gratefully.

To put it bluntly, Qin Shu was Li Dan's pathfinder stone.

Since he had proposed to negotiate with the allied army, Li Dan himself did not have a good time, so he used Qin Shu's words to test his father's attitude. In the end, it angered Li Hong, who now knew that King Father would not accept this matter, and could only think of another way.

Just as Li Dan returned to his residence, the two Hidden Arrow Crew s that Tang Yin left by his side came asking for an audience. Li Dan invited the two to his study room and explained the situation at the imperial court to them.

Now, it seemed that it was impossible to persuade Li Hong to take the initiative to abdicate the throne. The only option was to use force to drag him down from the throne. But this way, they would have to deal with a point, whether it was Li Dan or the allied army.

If Li Dan were to do it himself, he still would not have the confidence to subdue his father, and if the allied forces were to do it, Li Dan had to think of a way to let the allied army enter the city. Only, this sounded simple, but was too difficult to do.

The four gates of Xi Tang were all guarded by Li Hong's trusted aides and trusted aides. They were stationed with heavy soldiers, and without Li Hong's orders and order badge, no one would be able to open the gates. Even if Li Dan was the noble crown prince, he did not have the authority to open the gates.

The two Hidden Arrow Crew had been by Li Dan's side for a while, and both of them understood his difficulties.

One of the people named Lu Zun suggested: "As the crown prince, it is easy for the prince to enter and exit the palace. If the lord can steal the medallion of the Chastity King and open the city gates, it will not be a difficult matter."

Li Dan laughed bitterly, and then sighed: "The order badge has always been carried by the King Father, and stealing it out is easier said than done. Furthermore, even if I am able to steal the order badge, without the King Father's instruction, I am still unable to open the city gates."

"The four generals guarding the gate are here all the time. If we go with the order badge when he is not around, with Young Master's status, the generals below should not dare to make things difficult for you."

"This ?" Li Dan thought about it, and slowly nodded his head, he felt that he could give it a try since the method that Lu Sheng had mentioned, but, how could he steal the order badge?

Li Dan was not in a hurry, he could wait and think of a way, but Hidden Arrow Crew could not wait, they knew their side's situation too well, the army's food supplies were only enough to sustain them for ten days, and now, it was almost ten days, if they could not break through Xi Tang, the entire army would be in danger.

"Young master, our King wishes for this war to end as soon as possible so that we can return to the Feng Country. Therefore, the matter of welcoming the allied forces into the city must be handled quickly, and it would be best if it can be completed in a few days."

After pausing for a moment, he continued as if he was pointing a finger, "If young master can settle this matter quickly and well, my king will definitely be very happy. In the future, it will also be easier to plead for mercy on behalf of the Emperor Zhen Country in front of the Son of Heaven."

Don't look at how he was just an ordinary member of the hidden arrows, he was a representative of Tang Yin now.

Hearing that, Li Dan frowned, and after pondering for a long time, he finally made up his mind, and said with a stern face: "Alright! I will enter the palace tonight to meet the King Father ? "

"Yes!" Lu Jia was overjoyed. He cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Whether it succeeds or not all depends on young master."

After defeating Xu Bufan and the Chastity Army that was leading the battle, the allied army side naturally took down both the Huaning and the city.

Even if the people in the city continued to resist the invasion of the allied army, due to the lack of regular army organization, it was no longer a great threat.0

Taking over Huaning and entering the city, the allied army had obtained a large amount of rations and supplies, which gave the allied army a certain level of security. However, it was also true that the allied army urgently needed to break through Xi Tang, because Allied Army of Chuan Country And Mo Country was about to reach the Xi Tang, and so Tang Yin was in a hurry to enter it before Allied Army of Chuan Country And Mo Country did.

The million plus allied forces besieged Xi Tang, and although the chaste troops in the city did not dare to leave their cities to fight, there were still endless troubles.

The Outer City of the Xi Tang was still inhabited by several hundred thousand people, and right now, all of their Xi Tang were sealed. They could not enter, and the outskirts was surrounded by the allied army, making it difficult for them to leave the place. Hundreds of thousands of citizens had to eat and drink everyday, and it was fine to be trapped for a short period of time.

Even if some lucky people managed to successfully infiltrate into the camp of the allied army, they would quickly be discovered. The lucky ones would be able to escape in time, while the unlucky ones would be captured by the allied army, and in the end, their heads would be chopped off and hung on the stronghold wall of the alliance camp as an example of their actions.

In the short span of three days since the allied army besieged the Xi Tang, over a thousand People of Zhen Country were shot and killed. The rows and rows of decapitated heads hanging on the walls of the stronghold were shocking to behold.

The Allied Soldier who was on patrol at night was also attacked by the People of Zhen Country. Some of them were knocked out, some were beaten to death, and all of their armor, rations, and weapons were stolen away, leaving the rest naked. In the end, they were discovered.

There were even a few times when a large number of Allied Soldier s had charged into the Outer City and massacred the People of Zhen Country s inside. As a result, the enmity between the People of Zhen Country s had grown even deeper, and at night, the number of attacks by the People of Zhen Country s on the allied armies had become even more frequent.

This was a vicious circle. A large-scale rebellion in the People of Zhen Country and a large-scale massacre in the allied army could happen at any time.

Of course, Tang Yin did not want to see such a thing happen. In the eyes of others, the People of Zhen Country might be a barbaric and uncivilized beast, but in his view, the People of Zhen Country was a treasure that was even more valuable than gold, silver and jewelry. It was a treasure that could make up for the strength of the Feng Country.

He had always been suppressing the allied army, warning them not to barge into the residence area of the People of Zhen Country without permission, and to not kill the People of Zhen Country for no reason at all. However, he was the Feng King, and the three armies, An, Huan, and Yu, had always disobeyed his orders.

On this day, Tang Yin was discussing military affairs with Ling Shuang, Yue Ze and Li Xin when soldiers rushed in to report. A People of Zhen Country who called himself Di You wanted to meet him.

Upon hearing that the person seeking an audience was People of Zhen Country, Li Xin scoffed and coldly snorted: "How dare a mere One-Pun dog boast so shamelessly of meeting Feng King? Throw him out, and if there's any resistance, execute him on the spot! "

Just as he was about to leave, Tang Yin called him back. He smiled and said to Li Xin: "I know this Di You, the reason I was able to blend into Xi Tang back then, was all because of his help."

"Oh?" Li Xin was startled, and muttered: "So it's him!" After pausing for a moment, he said in both surprise and joy: "Could it be, that he came this time to tell Little Brother Wang that he has a way to enter the Xi Tang?"

"If that's the case, then it can't be any better." Not to mention how the battle would end up, it was still unknown if he could still fight them. Right now, he could only count on the Li Dan in the city, if he could not help, the allied army could only force an attack on them. If Di You the local snake knew of a way to sneak into the city without anyone noticing, it would make their army go into the city. Then, it would be of great help to them.
