Chapter 541: Half Righteous and Half Evil

Indeed, no matter who puts Cheng Ping in this position, he will not be convinced, after all, he is close to 20,000 people to defend the city, not to mention impregnable, at least he can hold it for more than half a year to a year, or until the food in Mianzhu City is exhausted.

When the old marquis Li Zhijie fought Nanshu, the reason why it took eight years was because many cities were hard to boil.

Now, a good Mianzhu, who was deployed by Li Shen with heavy troops and instructed not to lose it, was broken in only four days?

Why!

Cheng Ping felt too uncomfortable.

He stared at Li Xin stunned, his face full of grievances.

Marquis Jing'an put his hands in his sleeves, lowered his eyebrows and said, "General Cheng, there are many things, and there will not necessarily be an explanation. ”

"If I tell you that there is a Taoist priest who led the sky to thunder and split the gate of Mianzhu, you probably wouldn't believe it."

Speaking of this, Li Xin glanced up at Cheng Ping, his gaze calm.

"But alas, that's all I can tell you."

The matter of gunpowder is Li Xin's biggest secret, if one less person knows this secret, one less person will know, even Li Xin's descendant Yu Linwei doesn't know about this matter, how can he tell this enemy in front of him?

Cheng Ping's face became even more ugly.

He took a few breaths, gritted his teeth and said, "Li Gongzi said this kind of thing, it's not interesting, right?" ”

"So how do you talk to make it interesting?"

The Marquis of Jing'an said with a smile: "Say something not very good, General Cheng, whether you are convinced or not, it has nothing to do with me, you and I are hostile, since you are unwilling to surrender, then I don't arrange for the sword and axe to hack you to death here, it is already considered kind, why should I consider your thoughts?" ”

Cheng Ping had nothing to say.

His chubby body trembled slightly, and finally said slowly: "I knew that today, two years ago, no matter what, it would be impossible for Li Gongzi to leave Shu County alive!" ”

"No one can foresee."

Li Xin's face was expressionless: "If I could have predicted the future two years ago, General Pingnan's Mansion would no longer exist at this time." ”

"One more thing."

Li Xin looked up at Cheng Ping, and said coldly: "You should call me Jing'an Hou, or General Li, you are a son, you really can't leave Mianzhu alive today!" ”

Li Xin has always been a gentle and good person to his own people, but he is definitely not a bad person, and when facing the enemy, he has no good attitude at all.

This fat man started to go upstairs, and he called him a son, obviously calling Li Xin as Li Shen's son, although this is indeed a fact, but Li Xin is very uncomfortable to hear.

To be honest, Cheng Fatzi now wants to kill the young man in front of him with a knife, even if he dies with him, it doesn't matter, but unfortunately, before he went upstairs, the saber had been collected by Li Xin's personal guards, and he couldn't do anything if he wanted to be angry.

The fat general gasped for breath, but there was no way, and in the end he could only leave angrily.

Before leaving, Cheng Fatzi glared back at Li Xin, his eyes full of resentment.

People are somewhat afraid of death, Cheng Ping looks righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface, but he is also afraid that Li Shen will kill him, if he can ask the reason why Mianzhu broke the city, and ensure that Jincheng will not be broken by the same means for the second time, then his life will definitely be saved.

But Li Xin didn't leak any tone to him.

Cheng Ping was both aggrieved and a little frightened in his heart.

But this did not affect Li Xin's next move.

Not long after Cheng Ping left, the sky had begun to be a little cloudy.

Li Xin sat quietly in this restaurant, quietly waiting for the dawn, and from time to time used a clairvoyant mirror to see the progress of the withdrawal of the Pingnan Army.

Finally, when the sun slowly rose, the more than 10,000 Pingnan troops in Mianzhu City had withdrawn.

Li Xin asked Zhao Jia and Ye Mao to come over.

The little grandfather didn't close his eyes for nearly two days of high-intensity fighting, he had just slept for a night at this time, and he was still a little sleepy when he was shouted by Li Xin, but he was in good health, and he was in good spirits after just a while.

Zhao Jia was much worse, yawning all the time.

Li Xin hadn't slept all night, but he didn't feel sleepy at this time, he sat in his seat and tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers.

After a while, the Marquis of Jing'an looked up at Ye Mao, and said slowly: "The Pingnan Army has already withdrawn, looking at this, in another hour, they should be able to completely withdraw from Mianzhu." ”

Ye Mao lowered his head and smiled: "It's still Uncle Shi's master, otherwise if you really fight with them, our army is estimated to have more than half of the casualties." ”

"It's you who talked to Cheng Ping well."

Li Xin didn't have a smile on his face, he lowered his eyebrows and said, "Ye Mao listens to orders." ”

When the little grandfather heard this, he immediately lifted his spirits, he bowed to Li Xin and clenched his fists, and his voice was low: "The end will be!" ”

"I now order you to immediately order all the combat forces of Fangshan Zhichong Mansion to stand by, and after half an hour, attack the Pingnan Army!"

"After leaving the city, chase and kill, and return to the army at sunset!"

Ye Mao was dumbfounded.

He looked at Li Xin in a daze, and said in a daze: "General, the last general told Cheng Ping that he would let them out of the city......"

Li Xin glanced at him expressionlessly.

"This is a credit for you, if you don't want it, I can change someone else to chase it."

Now, the withdrawal of the Pingnan Army from Mianzhu was originally a defeated army, and they were basically out of strength, in this state, as long as they were chased out, it was basically a massacre.

This is a great achievement, and it is also a very good credit, and it can even be said to be at your fingertips, at this time, it depends on which person is closer to the lord and his subordinates.

Obviously, the little grandfather Ye Mao has a much better relationship with Li Xin than others.

Ye Mao took a deep breath, bowed his head to Li Xin with a complicated face, and said, "The last general...... Yes, sir! ”

Li Xin said lightly: "Do you think I have gone back on my word? ”

The little grandfather's face was not very good-looking, he bowed his head and said: "This condition is what the last general said to Cheng Ping, and it is also the last general who will go back on his word." ”

The Marquis of Jing'an was expressionless.

"Under Cheng Ping's hands, there are more than 10,000 people."

"If these people are allowed to return to Jincheng, then in the future, we will fight Jincheng, and more people will have to die before we can deal with them."

"You are also a person from the Jiangmen, you should be able to understand what I said to you."

"I'll just ask you, would you like to go?"

Ye Mao didn't say anything, just hugged Li Xin and turned to leave.

As a member of the Ye family, it is impossible for him to disobey military orders.

After Ye Mao left, Zhao Jia, who was still yawning, was not sleepy at all at this time, he took a few deep breaths and sat down slowly.

"Master Hou, my subordinates are becoming more and more incomprehensible to you now."

Li Xin said silently: "How do you say this? ”

"You previously ...... Like a merciful saint. ”

"Now, it's like a wicked person who chooses people and devours them."

Li Xin laughed at himself: "It depends on who you are right for." ”

"And I've never been a good person."

Jing Anhou was silent for a while, and then smiled at Zhao Jia.

"Brother You'an remembered a word."

"The entire Great Jin Dynasty, but anyone who is an official in the court and achieves more than seven grades is generally not a good person who is too pure."
