    Counties, in county towns.

    County government hall.

    Tao Dihu is wearing a black robe, a jade belt around his waist, and long boots, sitting cross-legged directly above him.

    The look on his face was a little panicked.

    Wang Qi led troops from Nanyang to kill in various counties. This was something that made Tao Dihu panic.  According to the news spread outside, the number of troops led by Wang Qi is 30,000 to 50,000.

    This data scared Tao Dihu.

    You must know that Tao Dihu's real military strength is only more than 4,000 and nearly 5,000 people.

    With such a force, they would definitely not have any advantage in a war with Wang Qi.

    Tao Dihu was sitting cross-legged, but it was as if he was sitting on pins and needles. There seemed to be thorns on his buttocks, making him unable to sit still.  After Tao Dihu sat for a while, he stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked back and forth in the hall.

    Tao Dihu has been paying attention to the situation and Wang Qi's movements.

    After a while, news came back that Wang Qi was closer to the counties, which made Tao Dihu himself even more panicked and worried about his situation.

    "Tap! Tread!!"

    Suddenly, there were footsteps coming from outside.

    A strong-looking general wearing a helmet and armor hurriedly entered.

    The general is thirty years old and his name is Tong Guan.

    They are Tao Dihu¡¯s subordinates.

    Tong Guan and Tao Dihu are brothers. They both came from the same place and have a very good relationship.  Because of this, Tong Guancai became Tao Dihu's second-in-command.

    "Commander!"

    After Tong Guan stood still, he cupped his fists and saluted.

    Tao Dihu nodded, waved his hand and said: "No need to be polite, tell me, where are Wang Qi's troops now?"

    Tong Guan replied: "Wang Qi is still half a day's journey from our county seat."

    "Hiss!"

    When Tao Dihu heard this, his expression changed slightly.

    There was a hint of panic in his eyes.

    Half a day.

    Wang Qi came too quickly.

    Wang Qi sent troops from Nanyang County. It was only half a day away from the county seat.  According to this time estimate, Wang Qi has entered the borders of various counties.

    Tao Dihu was anxious. The closer Wang Qi got, the less time he had left.  Tao Dihu put his hands behind his back and continued to pace back and forth, thinking about a strategy to deal with it.

    Under the current situation, he was very worried.

    ????????? Worry that your situation will be disadvantageous.

    Tong Guan said in a deep voice: "Commander, there is another bad news."

    Tao Dihu said: "If you have any news, tell it clearly at once. Don't hesitate."

    Tong Guan looked serious and said in a deep voice: "Suddenly, news spread everywhere in the counties and cities, saying that Wang Qi's troops were countless, at least 30,000 to 50,000, or even more."

    "According to our sentinel investigation, Wang Qi's actual military strength is only 10,000."

    "So the rumors about Wang Qi's military strength are Wang Qi's deliberate bluff."

    "It's just that we know it's false. The problem is, we know it's false, but we can't change it. Because many people have already believed that Wang Qi's army numbers tens of thousands."

    ¡°In the whole city, people¡¯s hearts are floating.¡±

    Tong Guan sighed and continued: "Right now, there are rumors about Wang Qi's army numbers everywhere in the city. This news alone has stirred up the situation and made many people have their thoughts."

    Tao Dihu suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "I already knew about this, but I didn't expect that this news would have such a big impact. Do you mean that someone in the city might deal with us?"

    Tong Guan said: "The commander will not deal with us, but he will definitely deal with us."

    Tao Dihu asked: "Why?"

    Tong Guan explained: "The reason is very simple. When Wang Qi's people spread the news, they also spread two pieces of news. The first is that there are three masters in Wang Qi's army."

    "Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng and Xiao Qingzhi are all masters at the master level."

    "Everyone knows that Wang Qi and Zhuge Feng are masters. After all, looking at Wang Qi's news, he and Zhuge Feng fought against barbarians when they were in Chang'an, so they are masters."

    "Xiao Qingzhi, there is no news. We don't know for the time being. I only know that he is the county captain of Nanyang."

    Tong Guan's eyes were sharp and he continued: "Commander, we occupy the counties. We have some strength, but we are not strong enough. Moreover, the walls of the counties are not tall and thick enough."?.  "

    "The three masters Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng and Xiao Qingzhi alone can break through our tower defense line."

    "Three people are enough to lead troops to break the city."

    "It is almost impossible for us to defend the cities of the counties."

    "In addition, Wang Qi is still spreading the news. He is the newly appointed prime minister of Langya Kingdom. He has issued an order not to kill those who surrender, but to recruit people to surrender. Under such circumstances, our situation is even more unfavorable."

    Tong Guan said: "I conclude that after the news spreads, some people in the city will deal with us in order to please Wang Qi. And since we occupy the counties, it is impossible to resist Wang Qi."

    "well¡­¡­"

    Tao Dihu sighed and said: "Wang Qi is in Nanyang fine. What is he doing with his army going south? Damn it. We have just occupied the counties for less than a month. This is so unfair to us."

    Tong Guan said in a deep voice: "It's unfair, but there is no way. Wang Qi has become the Prime Minister of Langya Kingdom, and he will definitely sweep away the entire Langya Kingdom and take control of Langya Kingdom."

    Tao Dihu said: "Brother, you have a very good idea. It was also your idea to seize the county seat. Tell me, what should we do now?"

    Tong Guandao: "There are two choices."

    Tao Dihu asked: "What two choices?"

    Tong Guan replied in a deep voice: "Commander, my suggestion is based on the inability to defend the counties. Therefore, the situation of defending the counties is not a suggestion."

    "To defend to the death is a certain death situation."

    "My first suggestion is to evacuate immediately. We go directly south to join the other county leaders. At any rate, we have nearly five thousand elite troops under our command. Now that Wang Qi is going south, the counties are in turmoil, and everyone is worried."

    "We went to join forces and strengthened the strength of the counties. On normal days, these people would not accept us. They would definitely think that we have ulterior motives and would be worried that we would deal with them."

    "Now that Wang Qi is here, they will not doubt us and will accept us."

    "After all, we are expected to deal with Wang Qi."

    Tong Guan said in a deep voice: "So, this is my first suggestion."

    Tao Dihu said: "What about the second suggestion?"

    Tong Guan said: "The second suggestion is to surrender directly to Wang Qi. Wang Qi has been recruiting talents. I once heard that he once recruited bandits from Qingzhou. If we defect, Wang Qi will accept it."

    Tao Dihu shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It's not okay to go to Wang Qi, absolutely not. If we go to someone like Wang Qi, we are asking for trouble."

    After a pause, Tao Dihu continued: "Brother, I'm not willing to accept it. It took a lot of effort for us to gain a foothold in the counties, and we finally had the foundation we have today, but I'm not willing to abandon it and go wandering again.  "

    Tong Guan fell silent.

    Not willing to give in.

    is that useful?

    There is nothing we can do about it. Who can make Wang Qi stronger?

    Tong Guan took a deep breath, paused for a moment, and said with relief: "Commander, we have no extra choice now. Once we are stranded in the county, waiting for Wang Qi's army to arrive, it will be difficult to evacuate."

    Tao Dihu stopped, kicked over the desk in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, it's really disgusting."

    Tong Guan stood silently below.

    Wait quietly.

    He knew that Tao Dihu was not an indecisive person. Although he was venting, he would regain his composure after a while.

    Tao Dihu vented his anger and gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, let's evacuate and go to Ju County. It just so happens that I know the leader of Ju County. We can still gain a foothold in Ju County after we go to Ju County."

    Tong Guandao: "The leader is wise!"

    At this moment, Tong Guan felt completely relieved.

    He was worried that Tao Dihu couldn't recognize him clearly and would choose to fight Wang Qi head-on.  You know, Wang Qi's command is not only elite soldiers, but also three masters including Wang Qi.

    Not to mention Wang Qi's plan to start a head-on battle, if Wang Qi adopts the method of assassination, once Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng and others quietly sneak into the city to assassinate, no one can stop them.

    Evacuation is the most appropriate solution.

    Tao Dihu ordered: "Pack up and take all the supplies with you. We will set off south immediately."

    "yes!"

    Tong Guan answered immediately.

    He turned around and went down to make arrangements for the subsequent evacuation.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
