Whether the Nanchen army is fighting or retreating in the land of Luliang involves not only the increasingly severe situation of the enemy and the enemy, but also the considerations of everyone that is difficult to ignore, especially the considerations of Wu Mingche, the coach of Nanchen, and Xiao Maha, the future coach and the current forward general, after all, only the decision of the two of them will really affect the stay of the Nanchen army.

It was precisely because every word he said was very important that Xiao Maha did not dare to say nonsense, he would rather believe that Wu Mingche would still be able to make the right decision in the end.

However, Li Xinchen knew that it was precisely because of Wu Mingche's meaningless insistence in history that Nan Chen's fiasco in the Battle of Luliang was defeated, so since Li Xinchen was determined to enter the chaotic whirlpool of the Battle of Luliang, he had to go all out to calm down this tide and bring back the last army of Nan Chen safely.

In the troubled times, having a soldier is the king of grass, especially for Nan Chen, who is in the south of the Yangtze River, if you want to persevere, this army is indispensable.

Li Xinchen looked at the sky outside the camp tent that was already full of sunset, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Xiao, I have a heavy responsibility to go to see General Wu. ”

Xiao Shilian, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, let out a sudden "ah", slowly raised his head to meet Li Xinchen's gaze, and bowed solemnly.

——————————

Nanchen's main camp is actually on the southwest side of Xiao Maha's camp, adjacent to Luliangshui, backed by a low hill, which can be attacked and defended, and is definitely a good place to take into account both attack and defense.

At the same time, the main camp and the Xiao Maha forward cavalry camp on the northeast side are at the corner of each other, and can shelter the baggage camp on the other side of the hill, so that the Nanchen army in Luliang, which is not a big place, to arrange a triangle formation, the three corners of the army can support each other, and naturally become an encirclement situation, so that the enemy does not dare to attack with all his strength, in case of being attacked on the side, its arrangement is ingenious, it is admirable.

Wu Mingche, as a veteran general who has fought on the battlefield all his life, shows military quality and the ability to arrange troops, there is still nothing to say, such a tricky way of arranging the camp is enough to give everyone who comes to attack a headache, and it is no wonder that Northern Qi and Northern Zhou have suffered a lot of losses in front of this before. Wu Mingche has always felt that there is still a turning point in the battle of Luliang, and I am afraid that to a large extent, it is also because of the ingenious layout of this camp, which gives him a lot of confidence.

However, because of Wang Rail's outflanking of the back road, most of the grain, grass, chariots and horses in the baggage camp retreated to Huainan in advance, and even if Wu Mingche felt that there was still a chance to support it, he was not so ignorant as to expose his weakest baggage camp to Wang Rail's knife and gun.

"Now there are five days of grain and grass in the big camp, and there are more in the forward camp, which can still support ten days, and the forage for the war horses is enough to last for seven or eight days." Xiao Maha raised the horsewhip in his hand, pointed to the empty baggage camp in the distance and said, "Therefore, it doesn't hurt to have no baggage grain and grass for a while." ”

Li Xinchen raised his eyebrows: "Having said that, I'm afraid that after five days, the contrast between the offensive and defensive armies of the two sides in the land of Luliang has undergone earth-shaking changes." ”

Xiao Maha smiled bitterly and nodded. Wu Mingche actually wanted to wait for five days, and after five days, if the war had not turned around, then he would have to retreat if he didn't retreat. But as Li Xinchen said, will the Northern Zhou Dynasty still let them sit here on the Diaoyutai for five days?

To put it mildly, Yu Wenxin, who was defeated before, was actually just a person who came to explore the way, and Wang Liang can be regarded as a striker, who knows who will lead the army to arrive five days later, famous generals of the Northern Zhou Dynasty gathered, Wei Xiaokuan, Wei Chi Hui and Yang Jian, the Duke of Suiguo, and a few are easy to provoke, and then the Nanchen army will not be a nail embedded in Huaibei, but a fish and meat slaughtered on the chopping board of the Northern Zhou army.

The evening breeze blew Xiao Maha's clothes, in the face of such a treacherous and difficult situation, this general, who had followed Chen Ba to conquer the world since he was thirteen years old, couldn't hold his breath, and could only take a deep breath to calm himself down: "Let's go, let's take one step at a time, it's better than waiting for death in the camp!" ”

Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian, who were following him, both looked awe-inspired, and hurriedly urged the war horse to keep up with Xiao Maha's figure, and the guards behind him also hurriedly followed. More than a dozen cavalrymen stirred up billowing smoke and dust on the field.

Because General Wu Yi's banner was in front, the soldiers guarding the camp did not interrogate more, and saw that it was Xiao Maha who personally led the team, and hurriedly opened the camp. Xiao Maha did not hesitate, and rode his horse straight towards Wu Mingche's big tent.

Looking at Xiao Maha's rapid dismounting, Li Xinchen's frowning brows also stretched a lot. Xiao Maha walked out of the camp, obviously not only did not waver, but strengthened the idea of persuading Wu Mingche a little, otherwise he would not be in such a hurry.

To be honest, this is the first time he rode a horse in his previous life and this life, and he rode a horse when he traveled to the grassland in his previous life, but he only rode a horse in a circle, to really beat the horse and gallop, Li Xinchen has never done it, and it is a great challenge to get on and off the horse.

Of course, not being able to ride a horse is really not a shameful thing for the people of the Southern Dynasties, and it is rumored that even Chen Qingzhi, who was trained with 7,000 white robes back then, will not be able to ride a horse before the age of thirty. The northerners are good at riding, and the southerners are good at boats, this sentence is not unreasonable.

So watching Li Xinchen clumsily get off the horse, the guards behind him didn't laugh, and Xiao Shilian was also very enthusiastic to demonstrate the correct posture of getting on and off the horse to Li Xinchen - the Xiao family was born in the palm of the horse, and for his children and guards, of course, they have skilled horse kung fu.

By the time Li Xinchen dismounted, Xiao Maha's figure had disappeared into the main tent. And Xiao Shilian stretched out his hand and pulled his sleeve, Li Xinchen took a deep breath, and walked straight into the main account side by side with Xiao Shilian.

It was getting late, and there were only a few candles in the main tent that were shaking and emitting a faint light, and in this dim light, Xiao Maha stood solemnly, and when he heard the footsteps behind him, he said: "These are the two juniors who came with the last general, one is a dog in the family, who is a general in the army, and the other is a guest in the house and invited to the army. ”

Xiao Shilian was stunned for a moment, his father generally refers to himself as a general in the army, and only when two people are alone or a few henchmen are present, they will be called by the relationship between father and son, what's wrong today?

And Li Xinchen rolled his eyes, saying that some of them were guests in the house, but to be honest, they actually meant the staff. Xiao Maha really simply gave himself such an identity. However, I have to say that this identity is exactly what Li Xinchen wants now, since Xiao Maha has already said it, as long as Li Xinchen does not object in the future, there will definitely be no reason to take it back.
