Although the hosts of Dacien Temple wanted to give Qin Zhan a little bit of pain, they did not expect that one of his soldiers, Sanshiba, was killed by Qin Zhan. They suddenly felt that they had made a mistake and were very happy for their mistakes, because among the traitors hidden in Dacien Temple, there were not many powerful swordsmen like Sanshiba. His main goal was to Li Hong, but he wasted such a master like Sanshiba on Qin Zhan, which was indeed a bit unworthy of the loss.

Therefore, it was discovered that Qin Zhan killed 38 at the cost of his injury. With Qin Zhan's encouragement, Yu Linwei killed all the black-clothed assassins around him. He ignored Qin Zhan and his group and allowed them to continue searching in the temple, but turned their eyes to Li Hong outside the temple.

They paid such a great price tonight, killing Li Hong is their ultimate goal.

As long as Li Hong dies, the Taoist fortunes will fade away, and their Buddhists will take advantage of the situation and carry forward them again. Therefore, for everyone, it is worth it to kill Li Hong tonight, even if it is his own life.

Outside the temple, Li Hong was still standing in the rain surrounded by Chen Gong, Yuchi Xunyan and others, waiting quietly.

The current situation is that everyone can set up a trap for him to get into. He knew that this was a trap that everyone could get into, but he couldn't stop getting into it. Because he mobilized a large number of troops to come to Dacien Temple tonight, in order to kill Liu Ju's rebels. In addition to annihilation of the rebels lurking Dacien Temple, he wanted to find the leader of the rebels arranged by Liu Ju in Chang'an City. Otherwise, he would have been a bit unworthy of the loss when he mobilized a large number of troops to launch an attack on Dacien Temple.

As for Ji Neng, he had already paid so much tonight. If Li Hong was not fooled by him and he could not kill Li Hong, he would even lose his life. The price they paid today would be difficult to redeem.

Therefore, he is now more anxious than Li Hong.

Now, as long as Li Hong doesn't step into the trap of Ji Neng, he can't reap the profits at any moment. Similarly, as long as Li Hong doesn't step into the trap of Ji Neng, he will never be able to find a real trait leader.

The stalemate between the two is just testing each other to see who can calm down.

This is a psychological war, it is also a battle between two strengths, and it is also a competition between the courage and courage of the two.

"Your Highness, is it time to act?" Yuchi Xunyan was a little impatient. It was not that he was not calm enough, but Qin Zhan led one hundred Yulin Guards into the Dacien Temple. No news has been heard so far. This situation is very strange. He had to worry about his nephew. Speaking of which, he knew the strength of the Yulin Guard now, and he also knew the strength of the black-clothed assassin. He was sure that as long as a master like Qin Zhan took the lead, thirty black-clothed assassins could completely deal with Qin Zhan and his group in the Dacien Temple.

"Don't worry, Qin Zhan will not die." Li Hong said in a affirmative tone. Seeing Yuchi Xunyan's incredible expression, he explained, "The grandson of Qin Qiong, the founding general of the Tang Dynasty, the Duke of Yiguo, is not as cowardly as you think. If he dies in such a small battle, then he will not think about whether he is leading the army to fight in the future. I am afraid that he will embarrass his ancestors."

The wind and clouds that Li Hong said were light and light, but it was heard that in Yuchi Xunyan's ears, it was stormy waves.

Because he heard from the prince that the prince appreciated Qin Zhan. If Qin Zhan could make contributions in this battle, his general journey would be smooth in the future. At least in the years when Li Hong was the prince and the monarch of the Tang Dynasty, Qin Zhan would not have no chance to lead the army.

He was also shocked by the prince's test of Qin Zhan, and threw a son of a founding hero like a dog and let him die. The prince's test of Qin Zhan's death also made Yuchi Xunyan scared. When did the prince's prince become so cold?

"Do you think it's a bit too cruel and ruthless to do this?" Li Hong asked Yuchi Xunyan.

Yuchi Xunyan did not answer, but his silence expressed his apology.

"Because I don't have much time left." Li Hong sighed and said.

"What does your highness mean?" Yuchi Xunyan said in shock. Could it be that the prince's highness had taken any major action, or he thought... Yuchi Xunyan didn't dare to think down, because this was not what he should think about, because his ministers were responsible for him, he would not think about it if he didn't let him think about it. As Li Hong's intelligence chief, to put it bluntly, he was a dog raised by the prince. Since this is the case, he would do whatever the prince said, so why bother thinking more?

Therefore, as soon as he said this, he knew that he had asked more questions, and he lowered his head a little embarrassedly.

Li Hong's general Yuchi Xunyan saw every move and was very satisfied with his sense of responsibility. He explained, "In a few days, the father and mother will set off for Luoyang. The emperor left the country, how could Lu Dongzan not have any other thoughts? At that time, it is estimated that the northwest border will not be peaceful. But if there is a problem with the northwest border, it is the responsibility of the orphan. I cannot sit idly by the way."

"Now the Tang Dynasty's army is all gathered on the front line of Goryeo. The northwest border pass has few soldiers. If Tubo attacks a large number, how should we resist?" Li Hong asked. Seeing that Yuchi Xunyan and Chen Gong were speechless, he spoke, "You can only go to the border personally and go to the front line on behalf of your father to boost morale, so that you can fight against Tubo with few soldiers in the northwest."

"This time I went to the northwest, there must be no available generals around me. If Qin Zhan can stand the test of tonight, let him withdraw from the Yulin Guard and serve in the Northwest Army!" Li Hong said.

In fact, in addition to being optimistic about Qin Zhan's ability to command troops and train soldiers, he also wanted to take this opportunity to arrange his confidant into the Northwest Army. After all, what he will rely on in the future is this Northwest Army.

As for the Northeast Army, as long as Li Ji is still there, he will not even think about it.

"Of course, this time, Gu went to the northwest, the road would definitely be very dangerous, because Gu had already passed the inside line and told Lu Dongzan about Gu going to the northwest." Li Hong said lightly, "This time Tubo did not invade the Tang Dynasty. If they really eat the ambition, the leopard dared to invade the Tang Dynasty, even if there was not much military force in the northwest, Gu would have left them without a return."

After hearing Li Hong's words, Yuchi Xun seemed to be frightened.

The prince’s plan seems very simple, but in fact it is very large and complicated. The prince wanted to use his own as bait to completely solve the marginal problem of Tubo in the northwest, and it was when there were few soldiers and generals.

Of course, Yuchi Xunyan also heard another meaning of the prince from it, that is, he wanted to recruit troops in the northwest through the opportunity of Tubo invading the Tang Dynasty, and to build an army that truly belonged to him. In all, the generals of this army may be the Qin Zhan.

Seeing that both of them were silent, Li Hong said, "Another of them can send another black-clothed assassin out, killing them, but after they will be when we enter the temple."

"No!" Chen Gong and Yuchi Xunyan hurriedly returned to their senses and followed the order. (To be continued)
