lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Changan Fengliu!

The Tang army withdrew and went straight back to Dafeichuan. Qin Mubai issued an order, and all the soldiers went to their respective camps, strictly guarding and returning to normal.

But the full camp soldiers have more or less mood swings. Some yelled like Yuwen Hongtai's, and some were frustrated and annoyed after being tricked by others, especially those recruits who were born with new calves. After returning empty-handed, they were ridiculed and teased by the enemy, so most of them felt a little uncomfortable.

Qin Mubai knew in his heart that he had lost the game to Garqin Ling before the war. I have to admit that, after all, the Garqin Mausoleum is rich in experience and tricky, and always pay attention to taking the initiative. Now, to fight or not to fight, everything is between the thoughts of Garqin Tomb. This was too much for Tang Jun.

Many camp is a little restless, but the two people staying still, Qin Mubai and Hou Junji.

At the beginning of entering the military warfare, one of the words Qin Mubai heard most from his father and Li Jing was "the wind of the generals"-in the face of danger, no chaos, no surprises!

Now, although he doesn't say that he has practiced this skill to the extreme, but the small situation in front of him is not enough to move him. On the contrary, it was Hou Junji. From the time of the expedition to the return, his expression and demeanor remained unchanged. Putting on a horse to charge into the battle and even killing people to see the blood succeeded and defeated, it seemed to him as commonplace.

From this point of view, Xue Wanjun is far inferior.

So after returning to the camp, Qin Mubai only invited Hou Junji to enter the account for secret talks.

"Why, when someone walks around by the nose, you can't keep your breath?" Hou Junji still didn't have any good words to give it to Qin Mubai.

"What do you think?" Qin Mubai smiled indifferently, and said, "Obviously, Gal Qinling is despising and insulting me, but he did not attack Dafeichuan rashly, so he is paying attention to me. . So I feel more and more that this opponent has a bit of weight."

"Then you are too late to know." Hou Junji sneered, "The kid was twelve years old with his father to assist the Abandoned Zong, and lead the soldiers to fight against the plateau rebellion. Without a single defeat in the battle, the Tubo dynasty was eventually established on the plateau. Do you think this is accidental?"

"So if I remember correctly, this is the first time you praise someone in front of me." Qin Mubai said. He didn't say the last half sentence-‘you don’t even have a word of praise for Master Li, who taught you the art of war’.

"If one day, you can let your enemies praise and respect you behind your back, then it will prove that you are really capable." Hou Junji said, "That kid from Garqin Tomb, younger than you Not a few years old, and there is Tubo’s Zanpu Zizong Nongzan, which is about the same age as you. Everyone knows on the plateau that there are almost two Zanpus in Tubo, one is Zizong Nongzan and the other is Zizong. Zong Nong Zan’s "righteous brother" Garqin Mausoleum. In a sense, Tubo can have no Abandoned Zong Nongzan, but it cannot be without Garqin Mausoleum. The latter is much more important, and at the same time to Datang, He is the real enemy."

"The real enemy? How to say?" Qin Mubai asked.

"If you put yourself in the position of the Garqin Mausoleum and think about it, you will understand. In fact, his situation is somewhat similar to yours." Hou Junji said, "Actually, the king People like Ministers and Ministers are not very happy to fight. The generals who want to fight are usually generals. As for the reason, you can recall how fierce and dangerous the court's dispute over the war was. In fact, it is the same in Tubo. .. Making peace with Datang, this matter was not brought up by our Datang, but the young Zanpu of Tubo who abandoned the ancestry to praise it. And it was mentioned a long time ago, and even the battle of Songzhou was back then. Did not fight-these things, you must not be clear to me."

"I admit this. You fought the Battle of Songzhou, and you were the prime minister of the cabinet at the time." Qin Mubai said, "Since the abandonment of the clan and the slogan wanted to make a marriage, why did it end up like this again?" /

"There are many reasons. One of the most important reasons is the Garqin Tomb." Hou Junji said, "There are all birds, you must understand the principle of Lianggongzang? A great Tubo empire was established, Zampo We must make peace with Datang so that the plateau will enter into peace for decades, so as to stabilize the foundation of the empire and cultivate their culture and people's livelihood-what does this mean to the tomb of the founding father of the army, the commander of the army? Is it just that there is no use left to just wait to unload the mill and kill the donkey? Of course he doesn’t want to!——Think about your own situation. If you stay in Chang'an without fighting against Tubo, you will be nothing more than a meal. Like a dispensable Qingping dog, how good is it to live? A man's life is nothing more than a bit of wine, wealth and arrogance. In this way, are you a bit similar to him? Where? You all have to control your own destiny through war."

After listening to these words, Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing, "Hou Junji, I can't think of you can't make a few boring jars with a hammer. It's a bit interesting for a long story."

"If you don't believe me, you can assume that I didn't say anything." Hou Junji curled his lips indifferently, and said, "Now I only know that the initiative is entirely on the Garqin Mausoleum, and our situation is not at all. Not good."

Qin Mubai lightly frowned and nodded, and said, "That's why I called you. Tell me, is there any way?"

Hou Junji was silent for a moment, and said: "There is a way, you may not dare to use it."

"Speak."

"Auspicious soldiers came out of the snow ridge and attacked Kunlun Mountain!" Hou Junji said.

Furthermore, Qin Mubai did not show the kind of surprise that Hou Junji expected. On the contrary, he smiled slightly and said: "This plan coincides with me. But it is really going to be implemented. It is really difficult."

"Oh? You also thought of this layer?" On the contrary, Hou Junji was quite surprised. He said, "The nest of Garqin Mausoleum is in Golmud, Kunlun Military Region. This time he brought 300,000 armors. Rising Qing Luoyuan, with a powerful force of three hundred li even camp. There is almost no possibility of defeating him head-on. Therefore, we can only fight seven inches-first break his food and destroy his foundation, and let his army be frustrated. Failure is the possibility of success."

"Exactly." Qin Mubai said, "The situation before me reminds me of the battle of Guandu in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Yuan Shao's forces far outweighed Cao Cao, and Cao Cao burned Wuchao and cut off Yuan Shao's logistics. , And defeated the opponent with a weak victory."

"But Garqin Mausoleum is definitely not a wine bag like Yuan Shao's. He has rich experience for the rest of his life, and he is very wise and considerate. If he wants to use his loop to burn his grain and grass, it is difficult for him to go to the sky." Hou Jun Ji said, "Furthermore, the snow-covered plateau is not places like Guandu and Wuchao. Hugh said that the Garqin Tomb will be stationed on the grain road to ensure that the logistics are safe. Even Golmud will take strict precautions and it is extremely difficult to start. The three armies did not move food and grass first. A war-fighting general like him must know the importance of food and grass. We have almost no chance."

"It's hard to say whether it is successful or not, but if you don't try, there is definitely no chance." Qin Mubai raised his eyebrows and said.

"Oh?" Hou Junji asked very curiously, "What are you going to do?-If you can successfully attack Kunlun and burn his forage and grass, then this battle will be more than half a victory!" /

"The secret is not to be revealed. I have made arrangements, but I am not in a hurry." Qin Mubai smiled mysteriously and said, "What we have to do now is to play two games with Garqin Ling-only You may lose, you may not win!"

"Arrogant strategy?"

"Also!"

"Don't send me to fight this kind of battle!" Hou Junji said anxiously, "I hate defeating battles most in my life!"

"It's a coincidence, you still have to." Qin Mubai smiled calmly.

"Why!" Hou Junji roared.

"On the basis that you are the strongest general in the Guanxi army, and you lose to Tubo, the Garqin Ling will believe it. Only by achieving the effect of the'proud soldier' ​​can you achieve the effect of the'proud soldier'." Qin Mubai said.

"..." Hou Junji was speechless, gritted his teeth bitterly, and nodded in irritation, "Okay! But if Xue Wanjun and those old boys dare to make fun of me, I'll cut it off on the spot. Their heads!"

"There is a cloud in ancient times, Yan Que is aware of Honghu's ambitions? On the other hand, how does Honghu care about Yan Que's eyes on him? Hou Junji, if you are really familiar with them, it will be my mistake Now," Qin Mubai said.

"..." Hou Junji was speechless again, sighed and nodded, and said, "Well, Qin Mubai, you won! I didn't expect you to be young, but learned a few tricks to defend against people. Your Majesty, or Li Jing taught you?"

"I can’t talk about the art of domination, because I am not your lord, you are not my minister. We are fellow comrades who share weal and woe. Trusting each other is the most basic. We occasionally make sacrifices for the overall situation. It is inevitable, what do you think?" Qin Mubai smiled.

"On eloquence, I am naturally far inferior to you. Let's do it, do what you say, who will let you be the coach?" Hou Junji casually hugged his fist, "When will you go to war? Just say it."

"Five days from now will be the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. There will be a frontal battle at that time." Qin Mubai said, "You come to fight."

"Okay!...but what if I win the battle by accident?"

"I behead your head."

"...Farewell!"

After Hou Junji left, Qin Mubai sat alone with his eyes closed for a long time.

Such a huge military contest is indeed a huge test for the "fledgling" Qin Mubai. In the past, he had led soldiers in battles, but the previous battles were either trivial pediatrics, or he was not an independent leader.

Inexperienced, huge pressure, tyrannical enemies, clever opponents, there are intrigues in the back of the interior... Qin Mubai felt that all of this was like a mountain, pressed firmly on his shoulders.

However, every time the pressure on his shoulders increases, Qin Mubai feels that his shoulders are a little stronger, and his legs also glow with greater strength.

Since the death of his father, he has no big tree to shelter him from wind and rain, no backing to support him, everything depends on himself.

"Father, although I am willing to use what I have now to exchange your aliveness; the only benefit from all harms and benefits is...your son, now he really grows up!"

"Come here, pen and ink!"

With a stroke of his pen, Qin Mubai wrote an urgent military article to report to the court, ordering him to travel eight hundred miles day and night to expeditiously send it to the hands of Fang Xuanling, deputy general manager of the march on Guanxi Road.

Only one thing was said in the letter—Qin Mubai needed someone to be his assistant!

The Eight Hundred Snow Sculpture Army lacks a true leader. Looking around the entire army, there is no suitable candidate. Although Shuai Qishi's one-armed Zhang Tong is the nominal commander, he is inconvenient to act with a disability after all. If you want to perform some special tasks, 800 Snow Sculptures need a real "King of Eagles"!

This person is none other than Qin Mubai's proud disciple——Pang Fei!

This kid, now being his landlord in Xiangzhou at ease, how can he keep him so happy?

Within two hours after the fast horse ran out of Dafeichuan, a group of strangers drove up to the big barracks and was stopped by the guards. The general informs that Pang Fei, the captain of Xiangzhou, is here to help the battle!

"There is such a coincidence in the world!" Qin Mubai couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and immediately called Pang Fei into the military account!

Pang Fei led more than a thousand soldiers and horses into the camp, and when he saw Qin Mubai, he bowed to his head, and was extremely surprised!

When I asked, I learned that Pang Fei, who was far away in Xiangzhou, could not sit still after hearing that the Lanzhou battle started and Qin Shubao was killed. He even submitted a number of petitions to the Ministry of War, requesting to go to Lanzhou to participate in the war, but Has been like a mud cow into the sea. But soon after Fang Xuanling became the deputy general manager of the Kanxi Road March and took over the military department, Pang Fei's petition was immediately approved. So, this kid spent more than a month galloping all the way from Xiangzhou, thousands of miles away, to Dafeichuan!

Coming with him is Qin Mubai’s former direct line of princes and the Bailang Navy of Xiangzhou Prefecture!

"It's too late!" Qin Mubai laughed happily, "Pang Fei, I have never looked forward to your appearance like today!"

"It is Pang Fei's greatest blessing in this life to be able to help his teacher lead the horse and crash the horse!" Pang Fei was also very happy, and said, "The students made their own proposals to bring the White Waves in Xiangzhou with them. It’s here. But Dafeichuan is full of plateau grassland. I wonder if there will be a place for us? Does the student’s move seem a bit redundant?"

"It's not superfluous at all." Qin Mubai smiled mysteriously, and said, "Maybe you did the most wise thing in your life-don't ask so much, first live and take a rest, give me Cultivate the spirit!"

"Yes, mentor!"

"In the barracks, you must not call me that."

"Nuo, marshal!"

"Go!"

The arrival of Pang Fei surprised Qin Mubai's heart. This can be regarded as one of the rare good news in recent days. Although this kid may be a little bit suspicion of being a military engineer and making a fortune, he is not self-defeating, and it is rare for him to come to help fight from a long distance.

The most important thing is that you really need him right now...

Because Pang Fei's accident came ahead of schedule, Qin Mubai's mood became a lot more relaxed and happy. Therefore, when he returned to the back house of the handsome account, his steps were a little brisk, and his face also had a little smile. When they just entered the back house, they ran into the Tantai sisters. Seeing Qin Mubai's relaxed expression, the two joked together whether "people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and they married the princess today."

Qin Mubai scolded the sisters with a smile, and came to Princess Wencheng's room.

"Mu Bai, are you back? Are you okay without being injured? Have you won the victory?" Li Xueyan asked with great concern.

"Why, do you care about war?" Qin Mubai said with a smile, "Don't you hate war and dead people the most?"

Li Xueyan nodded slightly awkwardly, and said: "In contrast, I naturally care more about your safety."

"That's right. People are selfish." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "No one is truly selfless, even you are no exception, right?"

"..." Li Xueyan was choked by Qin Mubai’s robbing of confession for a while, shook her head helplessly, and said, "Yes, I am not as great and selfless as I imagined... if the war must be It is unavoidable. The bloodshed and death must come as planned. I at least hope that you will be safe and that there will be fewer casualties for the soldiers of Datang."

"You are very honest." Qin Mubai smiled, "I know, your heart is very contradictory at this moment, you can't even believe in yourself, and you have doubts about your previous ideals."

"Yes... I can't hide this from you." Li Xueyan took her elbows and twisted her eyebrows and jaws, took a few steps slowly, and said, "I am in pain. I began to doubt my ideals, and my faith was shaken. , I am very hesitant and don’t know what to do next. Mu Bai, you are very wise, I always trust you. You teach me, okay?"

"You don't even trust yourself anymore, are you willing to trust me?"

Li Xueyan turned her head, looking at Qin Mubai with a soft expression but firm eyes, and nodding lightly, "I do!"

"Thank you." Qin Mubai smiled slightly and said, "I am here to tell you one thing. I am going to take you to observe before the battle and let you know what war is. Maybe after that, You will understand what you should do."

"Take me... to watch the battle before the battle?"

"Not bad!" Qin Mubai said, "Five days later, it will be the period of my appointment with the Garqin Mausoleum. Originally, it was quite inappropriate to take you to watch the battle before the battle. But I was trusted by the prince, and With your friends, I think you deserve an exception. After you come back from the battle, no one will interfere or ask where you are going or what you are going to do."

Li Xueyan frowned lightly for a moment and nodded firmly, "Okay, I listen to you!"

"Five days later, you and Sister Tantai will pretend to be my guard sergeant and follow me in the battle! I believe that from then on you will truly understand the difference between the benevolence of women and the benevolence of justice!"

"Although, I don't want to see the bleeding and killing with my own eyes. But...I will look forward to that day!"
