Outside the Wang Family Residence.
He Zhong, who had just swaggered around in the Wang Clan, was ruthlessly captured by a Skynet member behind him the moment he left the Wang Clan Residence.
"Let go of me, let go of me. What are you doing?”
The Skynet member did not care about He Zhong's resistance at all. He slapped He Zhong's neck, knocked him out, and quickly took him away.
When He Zhong woke up, he looked at the unfamiliar scene around him, especially at the handsome smiling face in front of him, who was looking at him with a faint smile.
"Your…Your Highness King Zhao?"
With a cry of surprise, He Zhong fell limply to the ground.
The Skynet member behind He Zhong quickly stepped forward and reported,""Your Highness, this person is called He Zhong, the steward of He Jin's mansion. He is in charge of contacting the great clans of Yanmen and the Xianbei army.”
"I've already learned from him that the leader of Xianbei, Tan Shihuai, is personally leading an army to invade Yanmen. A total of 100,000 troops will arrive in five days.”
Liu Ye nodded. He was very satisfied with the efficiency of Skynet. Then, he turned his gaze to He Zhong.
"He Zhong, you and your master, He Jin, actually colluded with the Xianbei race to plot against this king.”
He Zhong, who was panicking, came back to his senses. He stood up and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner,"Your Highness, you have misunderstood what it means to collude with the Xianbei or murder your Highness.”
"Oh, since you're not here to collude with the Xianbei, then what are you here for?”
"Your Highness's subordinates killed our Great General's cousin He Guang. This one is following the Great General's orders. He was here to collect the body of the Great General's cousin.”
He Zhong gritted his teeth. At this moment, how could he dare to admit to such a crime?
"Hehe, this king likes stubborn people like you. This king heard that the Heavenly King has a punishment called a thousand cuts. It's just right for people like you who are stubborn.”
As he spoke, Liu Ye once again elaborated on the punishment of the Heavenly Net.
Hearing what Liu Ye said, even though he had never seen such a punishment with his own eyes, He Zhong felt a chill run down his spine.
He Jin was originally a butcher. He Zhong followed beside him and naturally understood how He Zhong killed pigs.
Liu Ye's punishment was thousands of times crueler than killing a pig.
He Jin immediately knelt on the ground and said with a trembling voice,"Your highness, please spare my life, your highness, spare my life. This lowly one is merely the steward of the Great General's mansion, and everything was carried out under the Great General's orders. I beg your highness to spare this lowly one for the sake of the Great General.”
"He Jin still wants to kill this king on account of that butcher He Jin. Do you think his face is useful?”
He Zhong was forced to the point where he could not say a word. He could only lie on the ground and tremble.
"Hurry up and tell me what conditions He Jin used to convince the Xianbei leader Tan Shihuai to send troops.”
He Zhong did not dare to hide anything at this time. He directly spilled everything.
"The great general wrote a letter to the Xianbei leader Tan Shihuai, using the entire Yanmen Prefecture as an exchange. Only then did he agree to let the Xianbei leader Tan Shihuai send troops.”
"In order to remove Tan Shihuai's worries, General He Jin ordered Bing Province Governor Ding Yuan to transfer all the troops stationed in Wuyuan and Yunzhong to ensure that not a single soldier in Bing Province would support Yanmen and completely isolate them.”
Hearing this, Liu Ye was furious in his heart. He slammed the table and stood up."Damn it, damn He Jin, damn the He family. In order to deal with this king, they didn't hesitate to use the land and people of the Great Han Dynasty in exchange for the Xianbei tribe to send troops.”
"Selling my Han family's world like this is no different from betraying the country. I, Liu Ye, swear that I will definitely exterminate the entire He family and not leave a single one alive.”
Exterminate the entire clan, leaving no one alive?
Hearing Liu Ye's words, He Zhong was even more frightened.
He even subconsciously believed that Liu Ye was very likely to be able to do all of this.
After his anger subsided, Liu Ye coldly glanced at He Zhong and ordered the guard beside him,""Take this thief away and keep a close eye on him. Remember, don't reveal any of his whereabouts.”
Although Liu Ye wanted to get rid of He Zhong now, he could still use this guy to deal with the Xianbei Race, so he could only let He Zhong live for a while longer.
Liu Ye didn't bother with He Zhong's matter anymore. He gathered Xue Rengui, Zhang Liao, Zhangsun Wuji and a few others to discuss how to deal with the Xianbei invasion.
"Your Highness, since we know the inside story and have the help of a villain like He Zhong, why don't we set up a plan to lure the Xianbei army into our trap?”Zhangsun Wuji suggested.
Liu Ye glanced at Zhangsun Wuji. Seeing that he was full of confidence, he felt a deep gully in his heart. He nodded and agreed,"We'll do as you say."
Under Liu Ye's plan, he deliberately belittled the strength of the Yan Gate army in front of Tan Shihuai.
Tan Shihuai believed it and did not take Liu Ye, this immature prince, seriously at all.
He used his younger brother Tan Shidan as the vanguard and led the 20,000-strong army first. He personally led the 80,000-strong army to bring up the rear. The 100,000-strong army charged towards Yanmen in an aggressive manner.
After receiving this information, Liu Ye gathered Zhang Liao, Xue Rengui, and Zhangsun Wuji again. He frowned and said,""The Xianbei army of one hundred thousand is attacking aggressively, and apart from the three thousand Xuan Armor soldiers, we only have six thousand guards at Yanmen.”
"Although the Yanmen Army is a veteran, they are still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.”
"This king has decided to send a request for help to Bing Province and ask Bing Province Governor Ding Yuan to reinforce us.”
