The night sky is clear, like a huge blue curtain; the sparse stars twinkle, as if blinking their little eyes curiously.

Huang Li said goodbye and went back to his tent, but did not go in immediately. He stood outside with his hands behind his back, slightly looking up at the deep sky.

The rumors spread randomly had little impact on him. This may be what Li Laiheng, Yuan Zongdi and others like to see.

Since you don't admit the identity of the third prince, we don't dare to force it. But if you are making random speculations and speculations below, can you still stop others?

Well, that's what they must have thought. Maybe they were deliberately vague and revealed their suspicions, so that they could have the initial version of the rumor.

Huang Li shook his head helplessly, knowing that this matter could not be prevented, and the rumors would only spread wider and wider, becoming more and more outrageous.

A shooting star flashed across the night sky, which may have been an illusion caused by Huang Li's staring for a long time. However, he pursed his lips and showed a half-smile.

Since it cannot be eliminated, we simply let it go. Of course, we must also add content that is beneficial to ourselves and harmful to the enemy, and create more versions of it.

"You start a rumor, but you have to refute it." Huang Li smiled evilly, turned around and entered the tent, sat down at a simple small table, took out a pen and paper, and started the screenwriter's inter-line operation.

In the big tent, Ta Tianbao and Yuan Zongdi, who had eaten well, were chatting, or in other words, talking about Huang Li and the counterattack.

"It would be hard to believe that Mr. Huang is just the emissary of the Third Prince and is here alone." Ta Tianbao finally expressed his doubts, "The image is too conspicuous. How did he pass through Qingtong District and get here?"

of?"

Yuan Zongdi spread his hands and said: "Not only do you think so, Duke Wan and Duke Lin also have such doubts. However, Mr. Huang refuses to admit that he is the third prince, and even denies his family origin. You say

What should I do?"

Ta Tianbao confirmed his guess. Several princes indeed had the same suspicion, but Mr. Huang insisted on it, and they had nothing to do.

"That's fine." Yuan Zongdi sighed softly and said, "This can be regarded as leaving a way for Mr. Huang to escape. If our army is defeated, we can try to ensure his escape."

Ta Tianbao nodded and said: "That's the only way it can be. By the way, is that city-breaking magic trick really possible?"

"Not only does it exist, but it has also been tested." Yuan Zongdi said firmly: "Do you think we are not sure, or just to please Mr. Huang, we will make a desperate move and station troops under the fortified city?"

Ta Tianbao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "All the princes have experienced hundreds of battles and will never take the risk of fighting. Since there is a chance of winning, a certain family will feel relieved."

"Even if Yiling is conquered, it will only be a turnaround for the current situation." Yuan Zongdi said slowly: "Tatar reinforcements are already on the way and will arrive in two months at most. At that time, it will be a

A fierce battle to the death."

Ta Tianbao's face also became solemn. He thought for a while and asked: "What the Duke said is absolutely true. I wonder if the next plan can be formulated and can the crisis be resolved?"

Yuan Zongdi pondered for a moment and said: "Although there is a plan, everything is based on conquering Yiling. The internal and external two-front battle proposed by Mr. Huang is generally considered to be very good and may be implemented in the future."

"Is this the tactic where the enemy advances and we advance?" Ta Tianbao had obviously read "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" and had some understanding of it.

Yuan Zong first said: "Relying on strong defense on the inside and attacking the enemy's weakness on the outside is exactly this strategy."

Ta Tianbao was noncommittal, but believed that the requirements of this kind of tactics were very high. Not only did those who held on must be tenacious and brave, but those who fought on the outside also faced the danger of encirclement and suppression by the Qing army.

Yuan Zongdi didn't want to go into details, let alone mention the matter of joining forces to fight the enemy together after the Battle of Yiling. After all, the eight characters have not been written yet, so there is no need to make Ta Tianbao feel defensive now.

"Tianbao, it's really hard to travel all the way." When Yuan Zongdi saw that Ta Tianbao stopped talking, he smiled and said caringly: "The tent has been arranged. You have a night's rest and will return to the rear to command the team tomorrow."

Ta Tianbao stood up and saluted, and said: "I will retire at the end, and the Duke will rest early."

Yuan Zongdi got up and sent Ta Tianbao out of the tent, but saw Huang Li coming in a hurry.

"Mr. Huang." Ta Tianbao stood still and cupped his hands.

Huang Li returned the courtesy and said: "Hello, Marquis of Yidu, we meet again!"

"Yes!" Ta Tianbao smiled and asked tentatively: "Mr. Huang has something important to discuss with Duke Jingguo——"

Huang Li chuckled and said: "It's not an important matter. I suddenly had an idea and wanted to discuss it with the Duke. If the Marquis of Yidu is interested, he can also participate. Everyone will be wiser!"

Ta Tianbao was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Mr. Huang invited me, but I am unfortunately honored and dare not to obey."

Yuan Zongdi smiled and invited the two of them into the tent again, and the soldiers hurriedly served them hot tea.

As soon as Huang Ligang sat down, he took out the script he had made up and said to Yuan Zongdi and Ta Tianbao: "I went back and thought about it, and I felt that rumors can be spread, but it is best if they are good for us and harmful to the enemy. So...

”

"Don't you just spread rumors if you don't believe them? Why did you start making up rumors so quickly?" Yuan Zongdi and Ta Tianbao looked at each other with expressions of surprise, strangeness and confusion.

Huang Li looked at the draft he had typed, and did not notice the expressions of the two of them. He explained enthusiastically: "This first version says that the third prince has been with Wu Sangui, and he has hidden him very secretly. He just waited.

..."

During the San Francisco Rebellion, Wu Sangui used the golden signboard "Third Prince Zhu" when he raised his troops. However, he later ditched the Third Prince and proclaimed himself emperor.

"You can find evidence by making it up like this, making it difficult to tell the truth from the false." Huang Li raised his head and said: "Wu Sangui pursued Emperor Yongli all the way, even going deep into Burma, just to clear the way for the third prince."

Yuan Zongdi chuckled twice, with a strange expression, and said to himself: The third prince is diverting trouble from the south, and wants to trick Wu Sangui so that he can be safer.

"Okay, this is a very clever alienation plan." Ta Tianbao acted more exaggeratedly. He slapped his thigh and shouted, "It made the Qing court suspicious and jealous, and it also made it difficult for Wu Ni to talk about it."

Huang Li nodded repeatedly, looking even more excited, and said: "There is a second version. It is said that the third prince is lurking in the capital, contacting many anti-Qing people, and preparing to kill the Tatar Emperor with one blow."

"The third prince in the capital still maintains secret contact with Wu Sangui through Wu Yingxiong, Wu Sangui's son..."

Yuan Zongdi blinked his eyes, half-smiling but not smiling, and said to himself: Third Prince, how much do you hate Wu Sangui, why do you just let him trick you? Edit, keep editing.
