Li Xinchen didn't even need to look at Ren Zhong's expression to know what he was thinking.

How much effect does cutting off the water have on the entire Xiangyang battle situation, there is no need for Li Xinchen to point out that Ren Zhong, who has been fighting on the battlefield for half his life, will definitely not even be able to see through this, and Ren Zhong only sent 6,000 soldiers and horses before, leaving nearly half of his subordinates still in the city, and even told Li Xinchen that the old general was still worried.

In fact, it's no wonder that Ren Zhong is loyal, after all, everyone will definitely hesitate to let a general transfer his troops, or even all his troops, to support and cover another battle that has nothing to do with him for no reason.

Ren Zhong was able to draw out 6,000 soldiers and horses, which was already good.

Li Xinchen looked at the map with a smile and said nothing. And Ren Zhong frowned and didn't know what he was thinking, or maybe he was also waiting for Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian to speak.

Speaking of which, it is actually very clear that Ren Zhong wants to make a contribution, but this does not mean that he will really take all his own risks. So he's now waiting for a promise, or rather a condition.

Obviously, Ren Zhong's attitude was also expected by Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian, and Xiao Shilian said unhurriedly after a long time:

"The old general can rest assured, the general should have already led his troops to set off today, and he will personally sit in Zhangchuan County, and the old general will lead the army to fight on the front line. The replenishment of soldiers and horses, the reward of gold and silver, must be the priority of the old general. Of course, more important is ······"

Ren Zhong subconsciously raised his eyebrows, obviously Xiao Shilian's words were enough to arouse his curiosity, not to mention that these words came from the mouth of the eldest son of the hussar general Xiao Maha, and the credibility was naturally self-evident.

Of course, there is another point, if according to what Xiao Shilian said, Xiao Maha led the army from Jiangling to the north today, then maybe he will rush to Zhangchuan County tomorrow, and when Xiao Maha's general order comes down, he will continue to move in the city, and it will be impossible to say.

So instead of letting Xiao Maha drive him to the front line, it is better to be active and run over first, so that he can naturally leave a good impression on Xiao Maha in this battle, not to mention that after Xiao Maha, there are courtiers such as Zhou Qu and Gu Yewang who are staring at him with wide eyes, you must know that what these guys say and write can be heard directly to the sky.

Ren Zhong can not care about Xiao Maha's attitude, and he has to care about the attitude of these courtiers.

And Xiao Shilian's words seem to be unfinished······

"Feng Tang is easy to be old, Li Guang is difficult to seal, is the old general willing to be like this today?" Li Xinchen turned his head with a smile and looked at Ren Zhong.

Ren Zhong's heart suddenly felt like a thunderbolt in the sky, and the whole person was stunned.

If he had hesitated and pondered before, then Li Xinchen's words had broken through his last defense. The hands of this veteran general who had fought on the battlefield for many years trembled slightly, and although he didn't say a word, the expression on his face had changed again and again.

Feng Tang is easy to be old, and Li Guang is difficult to seal. Fighting all his life without being a marquis can be said to be Ren Zhong's heart disease for many years. When he is older, he won't even be able to get on the horse at that time, do you still expect to be able to be a marquis again?

According to the current trend, you don't need to look at it to know that the future of Nanchen is young people, and when the time comes, the court may not be too late to canonize Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian, who are the young people, where can they take care of their own useless old bones?

"The two virtuous nephews woke up the old man with a word!" Ren Zhong did not hide his excitement at all, at this time he was more like a child who had not grown up, imagining the future that Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian had depicted for him, just like a child seeing the toy of his dreams.

Li Xinchen smiled slightly: "The kid is rude, don't blame the old general." ”

Ren Zhong laughed and said: "The old man is also out of the way this time, just accompany you little babies to go crazy for a while, isn't it just a lieutenant, the old man is fighting in the north and south, will he be afraid of him!" The two virtuous nephews can rest assured, as long as the old man is still one step on the front line of Zhangchuan County, then the captain Chi Yuan will not want to enter Xinzhou even if he has a soldier! ”

Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian glanced at each other, and at the same time bowed their hands to Ren Zhongyi.

And Ren Zhong was not ambiguous, and turned straight away: "Come on, beat the drum and gather the generals!" ”

Looking at Ren Zhong, who was really high-spirited standing on the upper seat of the council hall, Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian smiled slightly and turned to leave. They knew very well that there was no need for them to interfere in the rest of the matter, and since Ren Zhong had said everything, he would definitely do it.

And Xiao Shilian sighed in a low voice while walking along the city: "After so many years, it is really rare to see the old general Ren so excited, what you said just now really went to his heart, but when he left, his father did not ······"

Li Xinchen paused, and said lightly: "Even if the imperial court is mediocre, it is impossible to treat the generals with military merits badly, otherwise the world would have already changed masters." Your Majesty can be regarded as a Ming Jun, will he really treat the old general Ren badly? ”

Xiao Shilian was stunned for a moment and looked at Li Xinchen, this guy never cared about anything when he spoke, but what he said made people unable to find fault with it.

Lowering his voice, Li Xinchen said slowly: "Even our younger generation has been overpromoted, and it is impossible for Your Majesty to really forget about the old general. It's just that the old general Ren has been a little depressed over the years, and these are what everyone has seen, so His Majesty is obviously waiting for him to have a really outstanding performance, and he will definitely not be stingy when the time comes······"

Glancing at Xiao Shilian, Li Xinchen chuckled, and then said: "Or in other words, the name of General Ren has actually been in the merit book for a long time. It's just to take advantage of the fact that this war has not yet ended, so as to stimulate the old general Ren again. ”

"You are figuring out the king's heart, and the sin is not small." Xiao Shilian couldn't help but quip.

And Li Xinchen shook his head: "When it's time to figure it out, you still have to figure it out, after all, we all have to eat together." ”

As he spoke, the smile on Li Xinchen's face quietly dissipated.

Ren Zhong must be on Chen Ji's reward list, but he doesn't know which list he is on?

"Shizhong, what do you think, are you still worried about General Ren?" Xiao Shilian saw that Li Xinchen's expression became more and more solemn, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Li Xinchen subconsciously glanced back at the city tower, which was considered to hide his gaffe, and immediately smiled: "Old General Ren is going to 'old man talk about juvenile madness', then we teenagers have to work harder, and we can't really let the old general steal the limelight." ”

Xiao Shilian slapped Li Xinchen's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Well said, let's go and show our own limelight!" ”
