The rising sun rises higher and higher, coating the entire city with a golden halo.
"Rumble..."
With a heavy and rough sound, the huge city gate slowly opened from inside the city.
A young general appeared behind the city gate, smiled and clasped his fists at the middle-aged man who claimed to be an old member of the official army: "Brother, the Marquis has invited you!"
"Thank you, little brother." The middle-aged man beamed with joy, clamped his legs under the horse's belly, and rode into the city.
The city gate rumbled shut again, and two horses, one red and one brown, galloped along the street behind the city gate and went straight to the garrison. The middle-aged man was then led to the main hall.
From a distance, the middle-aged man saw a familiar figure sitting at the head of the hall. The other person was wearing a moon-white robe. He was elegant and handsome. Next to him stood an expressionless man in gray. The young man exudes an aura that prevents strangers from entering.
For the middle-aged man, this scene is so familiar, yet so far away... It seems to have happened in the past life!
He quickened his pace and walked into the hall with flying strides. Then he knelt down on one knee and saluted with clasped fists in front of the superior officer: "Major General, the junior general Xie Yifeng has met the major general! The junior general has finally met again. Here we are, Major General!"
As he spoke, Xie Yifeng's eyes turned red, and tears shone in the shadows of his pupils.
Guan Yubai, who was sitting on a high-backed chair, looked down at the uninvited guest kneeling on the ground. His eyes fell on Xie Yifeng's wind-stained hair, and his eyes were as deep as a bottomless pool. Tan, his fingers tapped imperceptibly twice on his knees.
"Thank you, Lieutenant General, for your courtesy." Guan Yubai raised his hand and said slowly, "Sit down and talk."
This Xie Yifeng is an old member of the Guan Family Army. He was a deputy general under his father, Guan Ruyan.
"General Xie." Xie Yifeng stood up and sat down aside. A boy immediately served him tea.
After Guan Yubai took a sip of tea, he asked: "Why did Vice General Xie come here?"
"Young General," Xie Yifeng's eyes were still red, "The General accidentally heard that the Young General was leading troops to attack Xiye, so he came here specifically to join the Young General!"
The hall was silent for a moment. Guan Yubai's eyes became darker and darker, and he asked again: "Vice General Xie, how have you been over the years?" His voice was a little difficult, as if he was hiding a thousand heads. Thousands of threads.
"I am ashamed, I have lived in chaos these past years..." Xie Yifeng sighed and said with emotion, "Nine years ago, the general died unjustly, the official army was destroyed, and the general and several of his colleagues Pao escaped by chance, and then scattered around, hiding in the mountains and forests incognito...Originally, the general only wanted to live out his remaining days in mediocrity, but he never thought that he would have the opportunity to witness the major general revitalizing the prestige of our official army!"
As he spoke, Xie Yifeng's stubble-covered face was filled with excitement, his voice was a little choked, a little excited, and more of a joy.
"The Major General is still the brave and courageous Major General he was back then, which puts the general to shame!" I have been cowardly for so many years, and I don’t want to face my old friend without the face of Jiuquan in the future. The last general has made a poisonous oath before coming, and he must avenge the general and the official army! Please also ask the young general to fulfill the last general and let the last general I can serve the Major General again!"
He looked at Guan Yubai without blinking and spoke impassionedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of messy and rapid footsteps came from outside the hall. Soon, a young general walked quickly into the room, cupped his fists and said: "Master Hou, the prince is here!"
Hearing this, Guan Yubai stood up, dusted off his robe, and said to Xie Yifeng: "Vice General Xie, please wait here for a moment. I'll be back soon."
"Major General, please help yourself." Xie Yifeng said hurriedly, sending Guan Yubai and Xiao Si away respectfully, leaving him alone in the hall with twinkling eyes.
There was silence in the hall, except for the occasional sound of Xie Yifeng drinking tea. After a moment, the sound of chatter and laughter was heard coming from outside the hall.
Xie Yifeng stood up again, looking for fame.
In the courtyard outside, I saw Guan Yubai walking towards this side unhurriedly. There was a strange young man beside him. The young man was wearing a bright purple brocade robe, and his steps were beautiful and beautiful. In between, he was high-spirited and had an unruly flavor.
The two young men came side by side, talking and laughing as they walked. It seemed that the atmosphere was harmonious.
Xie Yifeng's deep eyes lingered on the young man in purple, thinking: It seems that this person is Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan? !
But didn’t King Xiye say that Xiao Yi stayed in Zhongling City and didn’t come to Baishan City?
Xiao Yi's arrival will inevitably lead to some unknown and uncontrollable variables. Can he successfully complete his mission to Baishan City this time? !
In just a blink of an eye, Xie Yifeng's thoughts were already changing and he was in a state of confusion, but he didn't dare to show any signs of it. He just stood there quietly watching Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi get closer and closer.
Xiao Yi was the first to cross the threshold. Of course he also saw Xie Yifeng in the hall, and glanced at Guan Yubai with a slightly raised brow.
"Ayi, this is my father's old department, Lieutenant General Xie." Guan Yubai introduced the two of them, "Vice General Xie, this is the Crown Prince of Zhennan."
Xie Yifeng felt shocked because of Guan Yubai's name for Xiao Yi, and was filled with surprise and suspicion, but his face remained calm.
He didn’t expect that Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi were so close!
"The last general has met the eldest son." Xie Yifeng saluted Xiao Yi respectfully, "The last general came here specially to serve the major general... the prince."
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows even higher, responded casually, and found a chair to sit down casually.
Guan Yubai added: "Lieutenant General Xie, you must be tired after a long journey. Go down and rest for a night first. Don't worry about the rest."
Following that, Guan Yubai ordered a boy to take Xie Yifeng down to rest.
After Xie Yifeng thanked Guan Yubai, he left. As soon as he stepped out of the hall, he heard Xiao Yi's casual voice coming from behind: "Xiao Bai, where do you want me to fight next? Just tell me!"
Xiao Yi's title and the meaning in his words shocked Xie Yifeng again, and he almost staggered. He didn't dare to stay long and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened, but a turmoil arose in his heart.
He always thought that Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai must have a master-slave relationship. With Xiao Yi's status as the prince of Zhennan, Guan Yubai, who now has nothing, must be Xiao Yi's master.
However, at this moment, he realized that both he and King Xiye were completely wrong!
Xiao Yi is actually asking Guan Yubai for instructions, which means that the relationship between these two people is basically the other way around!
Guan Yubai actually made the Prince of Zhennan surrender to him!
It’s no wonder that the main force of the Southern Xinjiang Army is under the command of Guan Yubai, and no wonder that the one who captured Zhongling City was also Guan Yubai!
No wonder...
It seems that many things that were puzzling before were answered at this moment.
"Squeaky..."
A loud slamming of the door came from behind, cutting off the conversation between the two young men and blocking out all prying eyes.
Xie Yifeng resisted the urge to look back and continued walking forward, with a myriad of thoughts on his mind.
This time, he came to Baishan City on the order of King Xiye to assassinate Guan Yubai.
He is an old member of the official army. Based on his relationship with Guan Yubai, he has full confidence that he can complete this task as long as he waits for the opportunity.
Killing Guan Yubai would be a great achievement!
In the future, when King Xiye defeats the Southern Xinjiang Army, he will surely receive many rewards and honors.
Originally, he thought it was worth a try, but now he has new ideas.
Xie Yifeng lowered his eyes, his eyes twinkling.
If it is true that Guan Yubai has made Xiao Yi surrender as he just saw, then once Xiye is conquered in the future, Guan Yubai will be wearing a yellow robe, coupled with the power of the Southern Xinjiang Army and the Zhennan Palace, this power It must not be underestimated!
And the picture of Guanyu Bai is even more thought-provoking.
Could it be... could it be that Guan Yubai wanted to counterattack Dayu? !
When this thought appeared in Xie Yifeng's mind, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his blood surged.
"Bang bang bang!"
That must be the case!
This is the only way to explain...
With Guan Yubai's ability to lead the army, as long as he has a large army in hand, even soldiers as strong as Xiye can be forced to attack the city. They are in danger. As long as Guan Yubai is not as foolish and loyal as his father Guan Ruyan, he wants to It was so easy to defeat Dayu, who had long been on the verge of collapse!
If one day Guan Yubai ascends to the supreme position and unifies Dayu and Xiye, then the Central Plains will expand to an unprecedented level. By then, won't he have the merit of following the dragon? !
Compared with the power of Conglong, the reward from King Xiye is nothing at all...
Thinking about it, Xie Yifeng's heart beat faster, ready to move, and his steps subconsciously accelerated.
At the same time, Guan Yubai in the hall had opened the map of Xiye and laid it out on a large table. Both he and Xiao Yi's eyes fell on the capital city of Xiye on the map.
A sharp light flashed in Guan Yu's white eyes. Although he wished he could lead the army into the capital immediately and fulfill his long-cherished wish, he has never been a reckless person. Before launching the final attack, he must do something With all the preparations, nothing can go wrong in this final battle!
Therefore, Guan Yubai ordered the army to be temporarily stationed in Baishan City, reorganize the army and sweep away the surrounding cities and the remnants of Xiye's army.
"Ayi, look here..." Guan Yubai pointed to the east of the capital and meandered westward, "The defense of the Western Night Capital is roughly divided into three types. There are forbidden areas inside and outside the palace responsible for the protection of the palace. The guards, the city gates and the capital are guarded by the capital guards, who are responsible for the security of the capital. The imperial guards and the capital guards are directly under the command of King Xiye, and are taken over by the people of the Zhidu tribe who belong to King Xiye. In order to ensure the security of the capital There are tens of thousands of troops on standby at Dongshan Camp less than five miles away from the capital..."
Guan Yubai pointed at the map and explained the defenses of Xiye Capital to Xiao Yi. He was already confident and explained in detail in an orderly manner.
"Ayi, look here again," Guan Yubai pointed to the west of the capital, "Now King Xiye is sending troops back to the capital from the west, and these reinforcements should arrive in the next few days..."
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, picked up the tea cup on the side, played with it with a smile, and asked: "Xiao Bai, you asked me to come, but you want me to lead troops to intercept these reinforcements?"
Although Xiao Yi used a questioning tone, his eagle-like eyes were already very sure.
Guan Yubai smiled slightly and asked instead: "Ayi, what do you think?"
Xiao Yi drank all the warm tea in the cup, then blinked his right eye at Guan Yubai, cast a flirtatious look, and said four words: "As you wish."
Xiao Si on the side looked away, the corner of his mouth twitched, and couldn't bear to look directly.
After getting down to business, Xiao Yi suddenly changed the topic and said, "Xiao Bai, my brat's first birthday gift is at the end of the month..." As he said that, he personally poured tea for Guan Yubai and delivered it to him. She looked at him with a smile and reminded him politely, "As an adopted father, don't forget your adopted son's big day!"
Guan Yubai's mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled and said: "Brother Yu's Zhou Zhou ceremony has been prepared by me a long time ago." Now, all we have to do is wait for them to return in triumph!
As he spoke, Guan Yubai's eyes sparkled, and he would give Brother Yu the best first-year gift!
Looking at Guan Yubai's expression, Xiao Yi's curiosity was aroused. Just as he was about to ask him what he had prepared, Guan Yubai changed the topic again: "Ayi, according to my estimation, the Western Region The reinforcements will arrive as soon as tomorrow night... You can set off early tomorrow morning." Next, they must hit the target with one blow and win the battle quickly.
After that, a military order was conveyed quickly. Time was urgent, and everyone in the city immediately began to prepare for the dispatch of troops tomorrow...
The busy day passed very quickly. Early the next morning, when the sky was still bright, the gate of Baishan City rumbled open again, and then there was the sound of footsteps louder than the sound of opening the city gate, and the mighty tens of thousands of troops Swinging out of the city, the sky-shaking momentum was like the furious waves of the endless ocean lapping one after another.
Guan Yubai stood on the high city wall, personally watching Xiao Yi and the army leave, watching the black flag swaying in the cold wind getting further and further away...
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps from behind, and a tall figure walked up the stone steps to the city wall and walked quickly towards Guan Yubai.
"Young General!" Xie Yifeng saluted Guan Yubai in high spirits.
Although he had a night's rest, the shadows on Xie Yifeng's eyelids became deeper and thicker. Last night, he almost didn't sleep all night. He kept thinking about the scene he witnessed with his own eyes and ears, thinking about what he would do next. Dragon Power, thinking about the order of King Xiye... repeatedly weighed the importance of it, the advantages and disadvantages.
Killing Guan Yubai and asking Xi Ye Wang to take credit is an easy achievement in a short period of time; if he assists Guan Yubai to conquer the great wealth, it will be a goal that can only be achieved in the next few years. However, the benefits of both It's also a world of difference.
Until now, Xie Yifeng had a profound understanding of what it means to gain wealth amidst danger!
Xie Yifeng clenched the fist in his sleeve and couldn't help but look towards the direction of the army's departure. The rumbling footsteps had long gone, but the dust in the distance was still flying wantonly...
If Xie Yifeng had any hesitation before, all the hesitation disappeared the moment he saw Xiao Yi leading the army away.
My guess is certainly correct!
Even the dignified Prince of Zhennan has surrendered to Guan Yubai, so why should I hesitate?
If he wants the overwhelming power and wealth, wants to be granted the title of Prime Minister, or even become the next "King of Zhennan", then he must take risks!
Thinking about it, a determined light flashed in Xie Yifeng's eyes. He took a half-step forward and asked for battle: "Young General, please give me a chance to make meritorious deeds. As a new general, I have to make some meritorious deeds before I can be worthy of staying in the young general." The general's side."
Guan Yubai smiled faintly and said, "Don't be anxious, Vice Admiral Xie. There will always be a chance."
Xie Yifeng was a little disappointed and could only persuade himself to be calm and calm. He had to win back Guan Yubai's trust little by little. With their many years of friendship, he could get twice the result with half the effort by spending a little time.
After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively: "Major General, I wonder what your plans are after taking Xiye?"
Guan Yubai didn't speak for a while. Just when Xie Yifeng was about to change the subject, Guan Yubai said slowly: "It's a sacrifice to the heroic spirit of my official family and army."
Xie Yifeng was stunned, and immediately agreed: "What the young general said is true! Destroying Xiye has been the general's wish for many years." As he said that, he sighed quietly and looked towards the east sky sadly. "I didn't expect that I would be able to see the young general realize the general's wish in my lifetime. I think the general and all the heroes in the army will also feel comforted in heaven..."
Bangs of cold wind carrying yellow sand blew in their faces, swallowing their voices in the wind, and the strong wind continued.
In the following days, the wind and sand became stronger and stronger, and the weather became colder and colder, as if indicating that a snowstorm was coming... Until early that morning, as the morning star rose in the east, the sky in the northwest suddenly A huge firework burst out, exploding in the dim sky at dawn. It was so dazzling and bright that it almost overwhelmed the elegance of the rising sun.
All the soldiers of the Southern Xinjiang Army guarding the city gate saw the fireworks. The area near the city gate started boiling. Someone immediately ran to the garrison to inform Guan Yubai.
However, Guan Yubai had already rode towards the city gate and immediately ordered the entire army to set off.
"Dong dong dong!"
The monotonous sound of war drums sounded like thunder repeatedly in the city. Tens of thousands of troops were well-trained and assembled to form a huge square array. The gates of Baishan City were wide open...
"Let's go!"
Half an hour later, under Guan Yubai's order, these tens of thousands of troops marched towards the Western Night Capital City, like thousands of horses galloping, with majestic momentum, releasing a domineering aura that could compete with anyone.
The tens of thousands of troops continued to march north, which meant that the distance between them and the capital city of Xiye continued to shorten. Finally, they stopped temporarily fifty miles away from the capital city and met Xiao Yi's army again. The army was stationed in camps on a large flat land, dotted...
Faced with the menacing army led by Guan Yubai, King Xiye in the capital became more and more frightened day by day. He could no longer sit still, so he could only order another hundred thousand people to urgently deliver a letter of peace and hand it over to the town by name. Xiao Yi, the crown prince of Nanwang.
"I wish I could share the world equally with the Prince of Zhennan!"
In the Chinese army camp, a careless male voice echoed, as if talking about a trivial household matter.
Xiao Yi only glanced at it quickly, then handed the letter and book in his hand to Guan Yubai, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Bai, what do you think?"
Guan Yubai looked indifferent and silently picked up the letter, his movements unhurried.
But the next moment, I just listened——
"Hiss..."
Guan Yu tore the letter and book in half without even looking at it, without hesitation.
With just such a simple movement, he released a sharp energy that was as sharp as a blade coming out of its sheath, and it disappeared in a flash.
Seeing this, Xie Yifeng, who was sitting aside, clenched his fists tightly to prevent himself from showing any abnormality.
Guan Yubai, after all, he is the unique young general of their official army. Now he looks elegant and gentle, but he is just hiding his edge.
It was so quiet in the camp that you could hear a pin drop.
Xiao Yi didn't seem to care about the fate of Feng Heshu and drank his tea carelessly.
Xie Yifeng has been secretly observing these two people, and his heart is surging: Although Xiao Yi is sitting in command of these two people, it is obvious that the person who calls the shots in the southern Xinjiang army is indeed Guan Yubai.
In the same way, with Guan Yubai's wisdom and strategy, he is a rare general in a century. Emperor Dayu couldn't accommodate him back then, so why does the Prince of Zhennan think that he can conquer Guan Yubai? !
The so-called "pregnant jade is a crime", as a minister or a lower official, the stunning and talented Guan Yubai will only make people fearful and wary. However, as a superior person, as an emperor, as powerful as Guan Yubai is You will become someone who is supported, respected and followed by your subordinates!
Everything he saw in the southern Xinjiang army in the past few days proved Guan Yubai's prestige in the army.
Who else can rival such a mandarin, and who else can compete with him!
Thinking about it, Xie Yifeng's mind settled.
My choice of abandoning King Xiye and joining Guan Yubai was indeed the right one!
