Chapter 200 Changing Strategy

Xie Bao's eyes widened with anger, he couldn't help but yell, and immediately ordered the guards to rush out to search for the assassin. Di Xian stopped him and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, Brother Bao, don't do it in vain. Since the other party dares to be so arrogant,

, just shoot the arrow and leave a note, naturally I am not afraid that you will catch him."

"What a fool!" Xie Bao scolded angrily: "These idiots only know how to sneak around, but if they have the ability, they can come out and have a fight with Grandpa and me!"

Di Xian held the cloth in his hand and was lost in thought for a while, sighing: "Oh, something bad is going to happen now."

Xie Bao grabbed the cloth in his hand and asked in confusion: "What's the matter? Isn't it just to warn us that they are coming to kill Li Bing? We have so many soldiers and horses here, why are you panicking?"

"Brother Bao, you don't understand the rules of this." Di Xian was a little anxious: "Assassination and rescue are absolutely two different things. No matter how many troops you have, sometimes they are useless!"

Seeing that Xie Bao still didn't know why, Di Xian patiently explained: "If it is just to prevent the enemy from coming to rescue a certain target person, then the key lies in the four words 'blocking the retreat'. Because no matter how you save people, in the final analysis

, or he must leave safely to be considered successful. Therefore, even if he has all kinds of clever tricks to contact the people he wants to rescue, as long as we send enough troops to strictly guard all possible escape routes, it will often be enough to make the other party

When faced with difficulties, retreat."

Xie Bao nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Yes, yes, that makes sense. Once the retreat is cut off, it will be impossible to escape with wings!"

"This is a way to deal with rescue." Di Xian continued: "However, assassination is completely different. The other party does not need to consider how to take the person away at all, they only need to consider how to kill the person, and the difficulty is greatly reduced. Especially

For Beiya Nilinsi, it is as simple as a daily meal!"

Xie Bao said doubtfully: "I don't understand this. We now control the entire Luoyi, and there are heavy troops deployed in the imperial city. Just outside the Ziwei Palace where Li Bing is, there are three floors inside and three floors outside.

With thousands of people and horses, not even a fly can fly in. Why are you so worried, Xiaodi?"

Di Xian sighed helplessly: "To this day, no one really knows how terrible Ni Linsi's methods are. Because everyone who knows is already dead. When the Imperial Capital Incident happened, in one day, more than a dozen of our people

High-ranking officials and generals have lost their lives at his hands, and even my little brother has lost his life.

I almost died. Do you know who attacked me? A fellow countryman who I trust and take care of the most stayed with me for five full years! We are as close as brothers! That day he held up a poisonous knife and stabbed me with gnashing teeth.

, I still shudder when I think about it.”

Xie Bao said in a deep voice: "Well, I know a little about what you are talking about. It is said that Chen Yunfan, the left general of the Xuanjia Army, was also killed by his own soldiers in front of the battle line that day, and his head was chopped into pieces. Is that so?

?”

"It's true. General Chen died unjustly." Di Xian shook his head: "These are just some of the superficial methods of the Nilin Division. There are countless more advanced tricks. Just say that I was assassinated two days ago, and there is a person who is often used by my side.

After my slave maid was secretly killed, she disguised herself as her and came to serve me. It was also blessed by the gods and Buddhas.

At that time, I happened to be alerted that the maid usually had a habitual action, but she didn't do it that day, so I didn't drink the poisoned tea when I was a little doubtful. Unexpectedly, the other party found that the poison could not be killed, so they immediately changed to a violent attack and tried their best.

Even if we die together, we will kill me. Fortunately, the guards responded in time, otherwise they would have been killed by the Nilin Division!"

Xie Bao stuck out his tongue when he heard this: "Damn it, it's so scary?!"

Di Xian sighed: "Oh, there is something even more mysterious and powerful. I heard Mr. Lao say that when he was working in the Nilin Division, there was a master who was responsible for assassination, and he actually trained a kind of assassination master.

Rats can lurk in the target's house and hide for several days in a row.

Hidden. As long as you hear a special flute sound outside the window, a dozen rats will suddenly burst out, rush out of the hole and attack everyone in the room. Anyone bitten or scratched by a rat will be killed on the spot.

He bleeds and dies of anger. Do you think it is evil or not?"

"Damn it, I don't even need assassins," Xie Bao was dumbfounded: "Just send a few rats?"

Di Xian frowned: "Not only that. People from Nilin Division are everywhere, and they are very hidden. How dare you guarantee that the eunuchs and maids in the palace are fine? How dare you guarantee that the generals and soldiers of the Xuanjia Army are fine? These

A person may become a desperate desperado who is not afraid of death at any time. Whether he attacks by force or uses poison, even if he misses one move, he will be attacked again and again, and it is impossible to prevent him."

"But... shouldn't they come to rescue Li Bing?" Xie Bao was puzzled: "Why do they want to kill him now?"

Di Xian gritted his teeth and said sternly: "I only figured it out when I saw the cloth just now. At the river service station in Bianzhou, after the Grand Tutor trapped Li Bing, it didn't take long for him to learn that Shen Lie had just left.

Therefore, we judged that the Imperial Capital will definitely know that the Crown Prince is actually held hostage by us. According to normal logic, if the Crown Prince is of the same mind as us, the Imperial Capital will kill him.

, if the prince breaks with us, the emperor will save him. Therefore, the prince estimated that the other side will definitely organize people to come to Dongdu to carry out rescue, so he ordered me, brother, to take strict precautions. But now it seems that Li Chengwu is really cruel this time

, they have no intention of saving anyone! To be honest, for the imperial capital, killing Li Bing directly is indeed a better choice."

"According to what you say, if Nilinsi wants to kill the prince, we will have no way to deal with it?" Xie Bao couldn't help but worry.

Di Xian shook his head: "It's not that we are completely helpless. What I'm worried about is that all our previous arrangements were made for rescuing people. I'm not afraid that they will use all means to contact Li Bing, but I'm afraid that they will succeed in taking Li Bing away.

, so we spend our energy on blocking the retreat, turning the palace and even the entire Luoyi into a big prison that is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. No matter how many people you bring, they will all be unable to escape in the end!"

He paused and continued: "But if this strategy is used to resist Nilinsi's assassination, it will not only be useless, but will also provide opportunities for the other party to take advantage of. The reason why they blatantly shoot arrows and throw letters is

In order to show the attitude of not giving up until the goal is achieved, I am sure that all the Nilin Division spies who performed the mission this time have the intention of dying together!"

Xie Bao patted his big head: "Do you think there is any fraud in this?"

"Absolutely not!" Di Xian waved his hand: "Nilinsi has no need and will never do such useless work! Besides, the Taifu started a war in Mianchi, the situation is irreversible, what is the use of keeping the prince in the imperial capital?

Wouldn't it be better to kill him and directly shake our military morale?"

"Hmm, it makes sense, it makes sense!" Xie Bao agreed: "When you said that, I also think it is true. If I were the emperor, I would also use this method. Anyway, he is not his own son. Xiao Di

, how shall we deal with it next?”

Di Xian thought for a while: "We only used the wrong method because of our previous misjudgment. However, he has a good plan, and I have a ladder. He wants to take the prince's life from my hands. How can it be so bad?"

Cheap?"

Xie Bao was very curious: "Oh? Tell me quickly, what's the plan?"

"The key to preventing and rescuing people is to 'block the escape route'. And to prevent assassination," Di Xian sneered while thinking, "It's still four words, hide the target!"

Xie Bao has a rude temper and doesn't like to use his brain, but he is by no means a stupid person. When he heard what Di Xian said, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Haha, wonderful. When two armies are fighting, no matter how many people die, you are not afraid, but if you can't find the enemy

There is no trace of them and there is no target to attack, so there is nothing they can do but to do nothing.”

Di Xian nodded slightly: "Brother Bao is right. Mr. Lao once said that the most effective way to protect important figures and prevent them from being assassinated is 'isolation' and 'concealment'. As long as the number of target persons can be reduced,

Contact with the outside world and avoid revealing his location and trajectory, then no matter how clever the assassin is, he will be unable to do anything!"

Xie Bao touched the stubble in his beard and asked suspiciously: "Are you going to hide Li Bing?"

"Absolutely." Di Xian smiled and said: "Li Bing can never live in Ziwei Palace anymore. Although there are heavy soldiers guarding it, the target is too obvious, and the soldiers and generals cannot stop the pervasive methods of Nilin Division. Therefore,

Li Bing must be moved to an unknown place and all the maids and eunuchs must be driven away."

"Drive those people away, and who will take care of the precious prince?" Xie Bao asked.

Di Xian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Then I can only do it. After the meal is prepared, first use a silver needle to test the poison, and then let the cook try it himself. If there is no abnormality, I will personally serve it to the prince. There will be no problems with the food.

I'm old. As for making the bed, folding the quilt, putting on clothes, etc., I'll be responsible for checking for abnormalities, and let Murong Xue take care of the rest."

Xie Bao frowned: "Murong Xue still stays with Li Bing? Why don't you drive him away together?"

Di Xian let out a long sigh: "Didn't Li Bing say that? Murong Xue must not leave his sight, otherwise she will commit suicide. At this time, let's avoid causing trouble."

Xie Bao curled his lips in dissatisfaction and then asked: "How to deploy the security forces? Do we still need to send heavy troops to guard it?"

"I think...it's not necessary for now!" Di Xian said: "The large number of troops standing by is tantamount to exposing Li Bing's position to the enemy. On the contrary, we should continue to keep the army in Ziwei Palace, so the suspicion formation

, so that Nilinsi can escape. The guards around Li Bing will probably have to trouble Brother Bao to take responsibility together with me."

"Are you kidding?! This is impossible!" Xie Bao objected loudly: "I command an army to guard Luoyi. I care about the entire city. I am not a bodyguard for the prince and his son! Who will command the army when I stay by Li Bing's side all day long?"

Di Xianli immediately had his head as big as a bucket and pleaded: "Brother Bao, Luoyang's city defense is certainly very important, but after all, there is no sign of the enemy's attack yet. Your soldiers and horses are battle-hardened and well-trained. As long as they are dispatched properly,

, self-propelled

There is absolutely no problem in the operation. Now Li Bing, an important bargaining chip, is at stake. If you have an expert beside you, you will be more sure. In the whole Luoyi, there is no one with higher martial arts skills than you. I am looking for help, Brother Bao.

.”

Xie Bao shook his head like a rattle: "Don't put your hat on me. If you don't want to go, I won't go! I can't do this kind of job as a bodyguard, Mr. Bao!"

Di Xian was about to persuade him again, but Xie Bao waved his hand impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense! If it doesn't work, I will pick a few men with excellent kung fu from the army and put them at your disposal. In addition, I will allocate another battalion of soldiers and horses to start.
