Chapter 503: Thanksgiving

Hearing Zou Qiang call Li Xinchen's name, Tang Zhong, Zheng Kaiyuan and others all subconsciously took a step forward, but were stopped by Pei Zilie reaching out.

Pei Zilie did not deny Zou Qiang's words.

And Zou Qiang seemed to understand, and muttered: "In other words, all this today is already expected by Li Xinchen······ What did he expect when he went to Langzhong······"

If, according to Pei Zilie, Li Xinchen is in Langzhong, but he has calculated how to attack Mianzhu Pass, it means that Langzhong and Mianzhu Pass have long been in Li Xinchen's eyes, and even in other words, the entire battle situation in Bashu is now under Li Xinchen's control.

So how big of a game did Li Xinchen lay, how big of a trap did he dig up, and how many people did he want to put into this game?

What kind of plan does this young general of Nanchen have?

Before, Zou Qiang naively thought that Pei Zilie would not attack Mianzhu Pass at all, and thought that Li Xinchen would be easily pressed to death by Wei Chi Hui and Wei Xiaokuan in Langzhong, just like pressing an ant to death. But now it seems that he should have thought wrongly, it seems that Li Xinchen is luring Wei Chi Hui and Wei Xiaokuan into the trap step by step, and then putting these two Northern Zhou armies to death.

Pei Zilie looked at Zou Qiang quietly. This person is more cautious than aggressive, but the shortcomings are also the strengths. Li Xinchen's command still lacks enough talents, if Zou Qiang can be used by Li Xinchen, then the future march and war will naturally allow Zou Qiang to sit in the rear, so that more generals who are good at charging can be freed.

Now Pei Zilie told Zou Qiang the facts very unceremoniously, all of this was planned by Li Xinchen a long time ago, and he Zou Qiang was also in Li Xinchen's calculations. Zou Qiang couldn't help but murmured: "Strategizing in the midst of the battle, winning the battle thousands of miles away, General Dangkou is worthy of his name······"

Pei Zilie said in a deep voice: "General Dangkou broke the courage of the defenders with strange soldiers, and he also wanted to fight quickly, after all, General Dangkou has also been thinking about Zou Duwei for a long time, I don't know if Zou Duwei is interested in taking a look with a certain one, where will General Dangkou take this battle situation in Bashu?" ”

Zou Qiang was stunned for a moment, only then did he understand what Pei Zilie meant, looked at Pei Zilie silently, and did not rush to answer this question, but the blade in his hand had been thrown on the ground. And the surrounding Nan Chen generals also slowly put down the blades in their hands, and they could already see his choice from Zou Qiang's expression.

Rather than die in this Mianzhu Pass, this seems to be a good choice. Anyway, he is already a dead man, and Zou Qiang did not expect to be able to leave a name in history.

Obviously, Pei Zilie gave him a chance, which made it difficult for him to put it down. He Zou Qiang is still young, and the battle situation in Bashu seems to be developing towards a situation that he and Wei Chi Yuan, Wei Xiaokuan and others have never expected, if there is no curiosity about where Li Xinchen will go in the future, it is impossible.

And if he can really follow such a madman to fight, maybe it can be considered a blessing.

With a wry smile, Zou Qiang said softly: "General Pei, this Mianzhu Pass is yours." ”

Immediately afterwards, Zou Qiang knelt on one knee and solemnly arched his hand: "Thanks to the general's refusal to give up, Zou Qiang is willing to serve the dogs and horses under the general." ”

Pei Zilie hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Zou Qiang: "There is no need to do this, in the future, you still need to carry General Zou forward." ”

Zou Qiang nodded gratefully. And Pei Zilie made a gesture of introduction: "This is Zheng Kaiyuan, a certain striker under his command, this time he led the elite to jump down from the Luofeng Slope, so that a certain person can hold this Mianzhu Pass in his hands, so this battle head merit belongs to him!" ”

The wounds on Zheng Kaiyuan's body had already been treated, and when he heard Pei Zilie's voice at this time, he raised his head to meet Zou Qiang's gaze, thinking that not long ago this guy had carried a knife and wanted to kill himself, Zheng Kaiyuan had a ridiculous feeling.

However, he also admitted that this Zou Qiang still has some ability in defending the city and responding to the battle, but it is a pity that the soldiers and horses under his command are really unreliable, even if it is a generation of famous generals, relying on a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people who have not been on the battlefield, it is difficult to fight this battle into anything.

Zou Qiang did not mess with himself at a critical time, and even almost stopped Zheng Kaiyuan and killed him, Zheng Kaiyuan saw this ability, so it was not surprising that Pei Zilie took a fancy to Zou Qiang and persuaded him to surrender.

Everyone has the heart of loving talents, not to mention that for the current Li Xinchen group, talents are too important.

"Just now, each of them is the master, and there are many offends, and I hope that General Zheng will not remember the villain." Zou Qiang immediately bowed his hand respectfully.

Tang Zhong, Xu Deyan and the others all subconsciously looked at Zheng Kaiyuan. In the final analysis, only Zheng Kaiyuan is the only one who really has a holiday with Zou Qiang, as long as Zheng Kaiyuan agrees, then everyone naturally can't say anything more.

Zheng Kaiyuan was silent for a moment, then stood up and solemnly returned the salute: "General Zou's courage in battle can also be felt, and it is an honor to be able to fight side by side with General Zou in the future!" ”

"The general of the defeated army, how brave is his words!" Zou Qiang hurriedly stepped forward to support Zheng Kaiyuan, and Zheng Kaiyuan showed a smile, obviously having accepted the new identity of this enemy.

In the final analysis, Zheng Kaiyuan is also a general, so he actually doesn't want to embarrass Zou Qiang, who has the same identity as himself. Everyone smiled when they met, and they could still be Brother Paoze in the future.

Xu Deyan and General Tang Zhong next to him subconsciously glanced at each other and smiled. And Xu Deyan walked quickly to Pei Zilie's side and said in a low voice: "Congratulations to the general." ”

Pei Zilie said lightly: "Why are you happy? ”

"Conquer Xiongguan and receive good generals, how can you not be happy?" Xu Deyan said in a deep voice.

And Pei Zilie sighed softly: "Xiuyuan, there are still many difficult places ahead of this road, how can I be happy?" ”

Xu Deyan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Doesn't the general have confidence in the future?" ”

Pei Zilie raised his eyebrows, and Xu Deyan then said: "It turns out that we are all under this deep night, and at this time we can finally see a ray of light, so my subordinates feel that it is gratifying." ”

"Gratifying, well said, gratifying!" Pei Zilie couldn't help laughing.

Xu Deyan's explanation made Pei Zilie relieved, thinking that he had talked to Xu Deyan about these things before, but now it was Xu Deyan who looked at it more than himself, and laughed in a low voice at the moment: "Xiuyuan, I think too much." ”

Xu Deyan smiled and didn't say much.

And Tang Zhong, Zheng Kaiyuan and the others heard Pei Zilie's laughter, and they also looked at it curiously, but the smile on Pei Zilie's face quickly retracted, he turned his head and said coldly: "Scatter the scouts, be sure to find out where Wei Shou is, and at the same time send someone to inform General Dangkou and General Chen of Shu County that Mianzhu Pass has been conquered!" ”

"No!"
