After these people thanked Liu Yi, Xie Xuan waved his hand, and the Beifu soldiers let go of a passage that was more than a foot wide from the lined formation, and these "heroes" put away the swords in their hands and rushed out of this passage, Liu Muzhi's eyes stared at these people, but until the last person left this passage and disappeared into the mountains and forests in the distance, he did not see anyone wearing hats, on the contrary, where those people were focused just now, there were more than ten hats scattered on the ground, Gently stirred by the wind that passed through the square, it rolled on the ground.

Liu Muzhi sighed and muttered: "Jinnu, what you said is really good, these people are really disguised, and now they have mixed out with the crowd, and they can't be found anymore." ”

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "But this is not important, the high-level demons of the Heavenly Master Dao, whether they are killed in this generation today or not, have already made their cooperation with Wang Guobao on the verge of breaking down, this time Wang Chen They can't deal with the Xie family, but there is a split internally, Xuan Shuai let Wang Chen go this time, not only gained a good reputation among the family, but also let Wang Chen temporarily focus on the body of the Heavenly Master Dao, and will not interfere in our major affairs anymore." ”

Wang Miaoyin sighed softly: "It's just that, Brother Yu, Liu Yi has also made meritorious contributions this time and is in the limelight, I think that compared with the people of the Heavenly Master Dao, this person you have always regarded as a friend may have a greater threat in the future." ”

Liu Yu looked at Liu Yi, who was smiling and walking towards Xie Xuan, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "Let's talk about it later, I think, at least for now, we are friends." ”

Liu Yi walked to Xie Xuan's side and gave him a military salute: "Xuan Shuai, lowly Liu Yi, fortunately not disgraced in his mission, and thank you for the order just now, allowing them to leave with weapons, saving a lot of trouble from being lowly." ”

Xie Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Master Liu, you have behaved very well, I just took advantage of the situation and used the authority in my hand to cooperate with your persuasion." This time you have made a meritorious service, I will write it down, and when the army gathers in a few days and evaluates the officials, I will include today's events in the evaluation. ”

A hint of joy flashed on Liu Yi's face: "Put more Xuan Shuai." ”

Xie Xuan turned to Wang Chen on the side, and said with a smile: "Today's matter, let's stop here, now between our families, what we need is unity, not fighting with each other, and please ask Wang Changshi to convey this meaning to Brother Ling, Lord Xianggong misses this son-in-law very much, and hopes that the couple can go home and walk around more when it is convenient." ”

Wang Chen reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "Lord Xianggong has always been involved in state affairs, and my brother wanted to visit him several times, but unfortunately his old man was not in the capital. ”

Xie Xuan nodded: "Since this is the case, Lord Xianggong intends to take advantage of our army's great victory to make a northern expedition as soon as possible, and I also hope to get the support of your brothers and the major families who are good friends with you." ”

Wang Chen's face changed: "Northern Expedition? How can it be so fast? Didn't you say that you would wait until the chaos in the north before you did it? ”

Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "The north is more chaotic than we imagined, I heard that Murong Hong, Murong Chong has raised troops one after another, pointing directly at Guanzhong, and the Ding Ling Zhai clan in the Central Plains also gathered sixty or seventy thousand troops in the middle of the month, Mao Dang, the general of the Qin army in Luoyang, led the troops to quell the rebellion, but was defeated by Ding Ling Zhai's clan, Mao Dang was also beheaded, and now the Qin army's strength in the Central Plains is weak and can no longer hold on." ”

Speaking of this, Xie Xuan looked at Huan Xuan, who was silent on the side: "This Tang newspaper was sent by Uncle Ling personally flying pigeons this morning, and their progress is also going well, your two cousins, Huan Shiqian, Huan Shimin, are extremely sharp, and they have conquered Xiangyang last night, and now, they also intend to give up the original plan of resting and watching after taking Xiangyang, and decided to go north non-stop and continue to attack Luoyang." And our Beifu Army will also give up the original rest and recuperation plan, send troops from the East Road, attack Qilu, and join the Central Plains. ”

Huan Xuan muttered, "Why is it so fast? Mao Dang is the general of the Qin army, the champion of the three armies, even if it is the battle of Weishui, he can retreat with the whole army, why was he killed by Ding Lingren? ”

Wang Gong laughed: "Because Ding Lingren has a master to help." I heard that Murong Feng, the son of Murong Huan, the king of Yidu of the Murong clan, is famous for his heroic bravery, and now he is the vanguard under Zhai Bin's account, this person is strong in martial arts, and in this battle, he led the Murong clan 3,000 elite soldiers, even broke Mao Dang's six elites, Zhai Bin followed up with a large army, Mao Dang's 40,000 elite soldiers, a thousand miles away, and he was also killed by Murong Feng himself when he retreated. Now the Qin army left an army of 70,000 in Luoyang, commanded by Fu Hui, the son of Fu Jian, but without Mao as a brave general, no one dares to attack again, I think, their demise is just around the corner. ”

Huan Xuan gritted his teeth: "I want to write a letter to my uncle immediately, take the five thousand Jingzhou elites who participated in the parade, and quickly go to meet him and discuss the Central Plains." ”

Xie Xuan smiled slightly and shook his head: "No need, Huan Shizi, Uncle Ling's letter specifically said that Jingzhou soldiers and horses have not entered Beijing to protect the Holy Lord for many years, this time there is this good opportunity, Huan Shizi should meet with the Holy Lord and the hundreds of officials in the court to show them Jingzhou's loyalty, as for the Northern Expedition, he has already made arrangements, and there is no shortage of these 5,000 men and horses." ”

Huan Xuan gritted his teeth, hiding the disappointment and anger in his heart, and squeezed out a smile: "You should be like this." ”

Wang Chen glanced at Xie Xuan: "The Northern Expedition is a major matter of the country, I want to discuss it with my brother and His Royal Highness the King of Huiji after I go back, and then discuss it in the court." But please rest assured, it is good for the country and the affairs of our major families, and we will focus on the overall situation. ”

Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "Our ancestral tombs and former residences are all in the north, and now it is a once-in-a-lifetime reconquest of lost land, please don't miss the opportunity to glorify our ancestors." After today's auction, our foundation in the south can be consolidated, and we will have no worries, and after a war, we will be able to have more than 100,000 strong men, and if we recover the north, then our manpower and land will be ten times and a hundred times that of now. ”

Wang Chen nodded: "Although this is the case, the Northern Expedition also has to gather the resources of the entire country, so that there are people from large and small families who can contribute and make strong contributions, and it is not so easy, in short, we will discuss this matter carefully, and I hope to reach a consensus." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Chen glanced at Liu Yi: "Youdu, Lord Liu has helped us a lot today, I want to take a step to thank him in person, I don't know if it's appropriate?" ”

Xie Xuan said with a smile: "The Beifu Army is the army of the imperial court, not my Xie family's private soldiers, Liu Yi is an officer of the Beifu Army, if Wang Changshi intends to associate with it, I think Liu Junzhu can't ask for it." Please feel free. ”
