Qin Mubai was taken aback when Su Dingfang commented on Hou Junji like this, "Why do you see it?"

"If he was cautious enough, how could he be implicated in the case of the prince?" Su Dingfang said, "The former prince Li Chengqian and the Han king Li Yuanchang rebelled. Hou Junji did not directly participate at the time, but he was still given by the eldest grandson Huan Wuji. It's pulled out. Although there is the suspicion of Changsun Huanwuji using the topic to eradicate the alien, but it is not all groundless? Otherwise, there is the emperor above, and Changsun Wuji really dare to be such a arbitrarily cruel hero?—— The teacher Wei Gong once said that Hou Junji has a fiery temperament and unruly temperament. He uses his troops to be pungent and fierce. He is good at offensive but not good at defending. It's not that he can't defend, but that he doesn't bother to defend. In his opinion, on the battlefield Only a fierce attack is all."

"Are you afraid that he won't be able to hold back his anger, and don't abide by my military order to make his own opinions?" Qin Mubai said.

"I don't know." Su Dingfang shook his head and said, "I'll put it bluntly, Mu Bai, don't be surprised. I think, in terms of defense alone, Lanzhou at that time was not without generals except Hou Junji--Xue Wanjun, just It’s more suitable than Hou Junji. Before this, he had been guarding Dafeichuan without any trouble. He was familiar with that place. Moreover, for defense, Xue Wanjun, who is also a fierce general, is better than Hou Junji."

"It makes sense." Qin Mubai nodded and said, "In fact, I don't know that Xue Wanjun is more suitable than Hou Junji? But if you really want to fight, Xue Wanjun is definitely not the opponent of Garqin Ling. Although I am Let Hou Junji defend instead of attack, but Garqin Ling won’t listen to me. He has to fight, what can he do? And he will definitely fight. If I send Xue Wanjun, Da Feichuan might do it again. Fall. Then all the previous results will be ruined."

"This is also..." Su Dingfang frowned, "I hope I am unreasonably worried, Hou Junji, our big brother, is still very capable. I only hope that he will not make mistakes at this time. "

"At that time, if you and Rengui were by my side, I would not send Hou Junji." Qin Mubai smiled, patted Xue Rengui, who was silent next to him, and said, "Especially Benevolence! I really want Garqin Mausoleum and his proud Kunlun cavalry to have a taste of the power of my Datang God General!"

Xue Rengui gave a wry smile, "Mu Bai, did you even make fun of me like that?"

"Haha!" Su Dingfang laughed, "This name is not made up by us, it is recognized by people from all parts of the grassland! In the early years when I followed my teacher Wei Gong in the Northern Expedition, I heard a sentence from the Turkic tribe. The arrogant rumors said, “Qin Qiong is sick and old, and there are no warriors in the South.” It is true that the Turkic people at that time were ignorant of my great Tang, but it also shows that in the eyes of the nomads of the steppe, they are strategizing against soldiers. , Magic tricks and other things are quite disdainful, only respect the warriors with high martial arts. Nowadays, they respect you as the'Great Tang God General', this is a great honor! Your image in their minds, Already going to be deified."

"Then benevolence must be made to be "deified" in the eyes of the Tubo people." Qin Mubai smiled, "When the snow stops and the road is clear, I will lead my troops back to Shanzhou. Dingfang , I will share with you 20,000 elite cavalry, together with the friendly forces of General Basimi in the southern court of Turkic, still stationed at Yumen Pass. Their men and horses may leave at any time. If you leave, you don’t need to stay, just give you enough food and grass. Yes. But if there is an emergency in the Western Regions, you can act cheaply and you can consider leading your army to the Western Regions. But please remember that there must be a proper reason for sending troops, and the Western Regions cannot think that we are going to avenge my father. ! The namelessness of the private revenge teacher will leave a handle among the local people, which is detrimental to the future."

"Okay!" Su Dingfang's spirit lifted up and solemnly responded.

Qin Mubai nodded, and said: "We are in the Helong area so that we can't have a good time and have no time to go west. It is difficult to keep the Western Regions from changing. If nothing else, the Beiting, which has always been ambitious, may be here. Time to imitate the behavior of the Xue Yantuo tribe and attack Nanting and other small countries in the Western Regions during the chaos, resulting in the established fact of unifying the Western Regions, forcing us to accept recognition. If this is the case, it will cause great trouble for us to conquer the Western Regions in the future. And I guess , This possibility is not small."

"Indeed." Su Dingfang said affirmatively, "Before that, Beiting had just turned his face with my Datang after the raid on Gaochang, and immediately came to make peace again. Their purpose and ambition are clearly revealed, they want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger. Fight. Now my Datang and Tubo are fighting the most violent and tense, they should also act. Otherwise, once we both fight a final result, the winner will have time to attack the Western Regions. For the court, now is the opportunity that cannot be missed, and the loss will never come."

"In this case, Beiting is very likely to take the opportunity to cause chaos." Xue Rengui said, "Mu Bai, why don't you leave me at Yumen Pass too! I have a way to deal with Beiting! As long as Mu Bai gives me With a letter, I can add tens of thousands of soldiers to my hand!"

"No, you have to go back to Shanzhou with me. Before that, I had suffered from the lack of a strong arm, and now I have finally caught you, how can I let go?" Qin Mubai smiled, "You said "A letter", is it to be given to the Hulu Department of Tianshan Mountain originally attached to Beiting?"

"Exactly." Xue Rengui said, "I came back through the Tianshan Hulu Department, and he secretly promised to surrender to Datang. Although they are suspected of pedaling two boats in the dark, if they can be induced to steer carefully , This power is not impossible for me. As long as Mu Bai issues a letter agreeing to accept the Hu Lu Ministry’s vote, this possibility will greatly increase."

Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Rengui, you are absolutely right. Fighting is not all about charging and fighting the enemy. If Hu Lu's tens of thousands of soldiers are on the side of the North Court, they will be my strong enemy; if It is a great help to surrender to our side. The strength of the enemy and ourselves will change greatly. However, we cannot count on him much. To put it bluntly, such'power' is too volatile and not very trustworthy. Today he can betray Beiting, and tomorrow he may betray me Datang. Rengui, although you are wise and brave, but you are too straightforward, full of chivalry and justice, this is very similar to my father. So you say You are going to take care of the Western Regions, I am not at ease. You are unbeatable on the battlefield, but to deal with this kind of cunning and insidious enemy, the formula is definitely better than you. Therefore, I will rest assured to boldly deal with the Western Regions. Entrusted to the designated party. Rengui, you should come back to Lanzhou with me with peace of mind!"

"Hey, why do I listen to this, it's a bit strange?" Su Dingfang rounded his eyes, "Mu Bai, what do you mean?"

"Aren't you complimenting you?" Qin Mubai smiled, "I always think that the second brother, you are indeed a talent in this field!"

After that, laugh with Xue Rengui.

"Okay, it's up to you to make fun of it!" Su Dingfang slapped his hand, he couldn't help but smile, and said, "I think Su Lie has been in the army for more than 20 years. Opportunity-Mu Bai, you can write a letter to me! As long as he dares to make trouble in Beiting, Su will go out of Yumen and go to the Western Regions to compete with him!"

"No problem." Qin Mubai smiled and nodded, "I think back then, your teacher appointed you to rush to attack the Turkic king's tent. As a result, Jie Li Khan was captured. It shows that you are trustworthy and capable of carrying out the task. . If it weren’t the case, I wouldn’t invite you to guard Yumen before. Now, I’m entrusting you with the affairs of the Western Regions, please stand on your own. To be honest, the Western Regions is the place where my father’s halves and sands fell. I don’t know how much I want to go there myself. But now, I can’t go. So, I ask you to go for me."

"Understood." Su Dingfang wrinkled his brows slightly, and nodded sternly, "I know what the Western Regions mean to me and to Mu Bai. It is a kind of tragedy and hatred. It is also a kind of responsibility and honor. Su Lie, it is a great honor to take over this task with sincerity and fear!"

"Okay!" Qin Mubai sighed comfortably and smiled, "In the future, the strategic deployment of our Guanxi Army will be roughly like this. The main energy is still to target the Tubo people across the Dafeichuan; On the other hand, I will first entrust the given party with full authority. As long as the road to the melting of snow and ice is smooth, Rengui and I will lead the army to go first."

"Then how to arrange the soldiers and horses in Huihe?" Xue Rengui asked.

"Take it away." Qin Mubai said solemnly, "People are so enthusiastic and come all the way to help. What a good friendly army, we must take it away!"

Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui laughed and said nothing.

The next day, Qin Mubai and the other three went to the military camp in Huihe to "guide and train" at the invitation of the blood lotus. Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui sullenly laughed together. Since Qin Mubai and the blood lotus "dancing close to each other" on New Year's Eve, the two of them have become completely sticky, and the relationship is unclear. Everyone with a discerning eye knows that Xuelian already regards Qin Mubai as his lover, but her lover also carries a lady with him, who is still a child and her mother.

This is a bit difficult.

Actually, the people on the prairie are quite open about men and women, and they are more unrestrained and unrestrained than the open-minded Datang. If the Turkic children are in love with each other, then there will be no such and more scruples. It is not surprising that the Lord of Zhou will be paid on the Yinyin grassland when the gods are bedded. If you are pregnant with a child, you can raise them together; if the two are willing to make peace, you can also become a husband and wife. But if you don't have anything to do with you after breaking up, you don't have to bear any moral accusations.

Therefore, many people on the grassland only know their mother and not their father. Every time the blood lotus used all kinds of excuses to invite Qin Mubai to her barracks, it would lead people to think about it.

It's just that Xuelian's mother is the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and she has been instilled a little bit of the morality of the Tang Dynasty since she was a child. For so many years, this recognized first beauty in the grassland has been refusing to be like a jade from thousands of miles away, attracting countless grassland men to love each other day and night.

When the three of them arrived at the Huihe barracks, the blood lotus was really training the cavalry. And personally put on the battle, led his own guards to practice riding and cutting.

The so-called slashing by riding means riding a horse galloping with one hand and slashing the knife with one hand, and swinging the knife to chop off when passing through a wooden post wrapped in thick sheepskin. This seemingly simple effort must not be underestimated. The horseback sprint and the sword must have a reasonable arc and speed. If it is impossible, it is not uncommon to cut the air with a single knife. It is also possible to break the arm by the force of the rebound.

"This is the sword of the prairie people who have practiced for thousands of years." After watching for a while, Qin Mubai said with emotion, "It seems simple, but in fact it is clever and clumsy. The sword of the prairie nation is curved, not Just to look good, but to make it easier for the cavalry to slash. Not only is it easy to handle, but it is also highly lethal and the blade is not easy to break. Look at our horizontal knife, straight! Although the craftsmanship of Datang's knife is unparalleled in the world, in fact, ours The horizontal knife is more suitable for foot combat. If the cavalry slashes, the horizontal knife is far less powerful than the Huren's scimitar, and it makes it difficult to handle and easy to break."

"Mu Bai said that the knife is an important reason why Hu Qi is so powerful. In order to restrain Hu Qi, I asked my soldiers to use swords in the Western Expeditions, all of them are Ma Jian. Even if they are Those who used to use knives in the past have also been changed." Xue Rengui said with deep feeling, "Hu people take horses as their home, and they learn to ride horses since they learn to walk. After fighting, their horses seem to grow on their hips. The knife is like an extension of the arm. It’s not that I have the ambitions of others to destroy my prestige. No matter how we train, our Central Plains cavalry always loses its combat ability to the Hu cavalry. Therefore, instead of training the cavalry hard, it is better to use good local materials. Reinforce the control and implement the'Human Hu'. Before Mu Bai recruited many excellent knights from Gaochang and Tubo, I was really secretly excited."

"What about this one?" Qin Mubai grinned vaguely at the blood lotus who was sweating and drinking loudly on the school court.

"I have to ask you!" Su Dingfang smiled, "Is it not clear? When do you walk into the girl's boudoir obediently, when will these 40,000 fine rides go to you!"

"Hey, I can't think of someone Qin's virginity, so valuable!" Qin Mubai grinned.

Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui almost fell on the ground without laughing.

The three of them are in Le, and a small soldier from Tang Jun came to report, saying that Shanzhou has come to an envoy and sent a military emergency report.

Qin Mu raised his eyebrows, "Where is the military newspaper?"

"Return to the marshal, the messenger is General Yuwen! He has just got off the horse after entering the city, and he is braving the fire. People are freezing and unconscious, and they are unable to move!"

"Yuwen Hongtai?" The three of them screamed in surprise, and they had a bad feeling in their hearts—Yuwen Hongtai, didn't he guard Dafeichuan with Hou Junji? Why are you here!

A shadow appeared in Qin Mubai's heart: This dead sunspot is really a dead star! Last time he suddenly appeared in Lanzhou, holding my father's spiritual position in his arms; this time...

"Go, return to Guancheng!"

Today, it is rare for a sweetheart to observe from the sidelines, the blood lotus is training **** the school court. Looking back, Qin Mubai and the others actually walked away. Her heart suddenly filled with anxiety and anger, and she hurriedly ran the horse and slammed it down with a knife, and cut off a large portion of the thick sheepskin pile. The Huihe warriors next to her were a little dumbfounded.

"What romantic character, a little incomprehensible, huh!"
