"Humph! Isn't it too arbitrary for a military advisor to say that my uncle was a deceitful surrender based on speculation? Fan Yong glared at Jia Xu angrily and asked coldly.

Just when Fan Yong was filled with indignation, Li Li suddenly turned to him and said, "Second brother, General Fan Chou has always been loyal and benevolent, and he admires his brother very much. However, what the military advisor said is not unreasonable, and when you are in battle, there is nothing wrong with being careful. The second brother will temporarily follow the order of the military division, if we misunderstand your uncle, I will personally explain to General Fan Chou after the war and come to the door to make amends. Needless to say, carry out the order! ”

"Uh、、、、、、 the last general commands!" Fan Yong didn't expect his eldest brother Li Li to speak like this, and there was a sense of favoritism in his words. In astonishment, he held back the anger in his heart and rode away on his horse.

Seeing Fan Yong leave angrily, Jia Xu whispered to Li Li: "My subordinates have arrogantly spoken to me, and I ask the lord to forgive me." However, General Fan Chou's move was indeed suspicious, so his subordinates had to be more vigilant in case of the unexpected. If he led the army not to defect to our army, but to surrender and try to attack the rear of our army, then the current situation of the two armies would change, and the disadvantage of the Xiliang army would be reversed in an instant. In troubled times, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. It's just that in this way, the second general will inevitably be unhappy and indignant. The subordinates were worried that if Fan Chou's trip was a fraudulent surrender, I was afraid that it would damage the brotherhood between the lord and the second general. Please be clear. ”

Hearing this, a complicated look crossed Li Li's eyes, and he muttered: "The military advisor is reasonable. General Fan Chou and my uncle have a good relationship, and I didn't expect him to defect before, but since the second brother is sure that this matter is feasible, I am happy to see it happen. After all, our army and the Xiliang army have no inextricable life-and-death enmity, and we should avoid casualties to the greatest extent, which is the scenario I want to see. It's just that I don't know something, why did the military advisor conclude that General Fan Chou would not surrender to our army? Please tell the military advisor bluntly. So that I know why. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Jia Xu said: "The reason why the subordinates believe that General Fan Chou is likely to surrender by fraud is because Fan Chou and his people care very much about the honor of the Fan family's ancestors. The lord may not know the origin of the ancestors of the Fan family, and most of the generals in the Xiliang army do not know about it, but their subordinates know a little about the origin of the Fan family. The Fan family is the queen of the gate, it is said that it is the descendant of the founding father of the Western Han Dynasty Fan Xu, Fan Chou's family still enshrines Fan Xu's tablet, and it is not groundless to think that the Fan family is the descendant of Fan Xu, it should be true. However, Fan Xu died in the early days of the founding of the Western Han Dynasty, and the Fan family was nameless. Not visible to the world. However, as far as his subordinates know, General Fan Chou attaches great importance to the honor of the family, and he also respects the Han royal family, and has never coveted rebellion.

This time the two armies fought a decisive battle. On the surface, it was just a power struggle between the lord and General Li Dao. Fight for the ownership of Chang'an City and the Xiliang Army. Actually. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this battle determines the survival of the Han dynasty and the general trend of the world in the future.

If this battle is won by General Li Dao, the Liu family will definitely exist in name only, but the Han dynasty is still expected to continue, and General Li Dao categorically does not have the strength and ambition to replace the Han family. However. If the lord wins this battle, it is difficult to say whether the Han dynasty will continue to exist. This does not mean that the lord has the intention of killing the king and usurping the throne, and intends to replace the Han family, but the lord occupies many innate advantages. prompts others to guess that the lord has the ambition of the emperor.

First of all, the lord is still less than twenty years old, and there is still a long way to go in the future, but the lord is in charge of the world at the age of a weak crown. This alone has to make the people of the world reverie infinitely, and they have speculated that the lord is plotting against him, and sooner or later he will replace the Han family and stand on his own.

Secondly, once Chang'an falls into the hands of the lord, the lord will be able to hold the male army and look at the world. At this time when the world is in turmoil, the lord has more than 200,000 troops, occupying the two states of Xiliang, and there is the danger of three passes, which can be attacked and defended, and he is invincible. It virtually replaced the homeland of the former Qin State, occupied the land of the pre-Qin state, looked at the Central Plains, and confronted the princes of the world from afar.

Zuihou is the lord who holds the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother in his hands. As long as the Son of Heaven is in his hands, the lord can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, not only holding the authority of the world in his hands, but also representing the supreme imperial power of the Han family's orthodoxy.

It is precisely because the lord occupies the absolute advantage that the princes want to get but can't get, that everyone in the world will think that the lord will replace the Han dynasty sooner or later, and add respect to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and reign over the world. Therefore, as long as the people who are oriented to the Han family do not want to see Chang'an City and the Xiliang army fall into the hands of the lord, they will try to prevent the lord from taking power and taking charge of the army. Because once the lord obtains the command of the Xiliang army and the power to rule the world, it means that the day of the destruction of the Han dynasty is not far off, and the four-hundred-year-old Han dynasty will be ended by the lord, and those century-old families and scholars in the world will be destroyed with the rise of the lord. This is a situation that the clans and scholars of the world do not want to see, and they will definitely spare no effort to resist our army and deliberately get rid of our Xiliang army.

After all, the people of the world still have their hearts set on the Han family, especially the Confucian scholars and scholars in the world still regard the Liu royal family as the orthodoxy of the world, and it is unrealistic for anyone to try to replace the Han family and stand on their own feet at this time, and it is difficult to win the hearts of the people, let alone the recognition of the scholars in the world. If the lord really wants to rule the world, the consequences of doing so are extremely terrible. The people's hearts are turned back, and the Confucian scholars and clans in the world will inevitably rebel, and in the end they will inevitably follow Dong Zhuo's old path, and they will not die well, and they will be infamous through the ages. The current Fan Chou is just a symptom, his heart is towards the Han family, thinking that the Han family is the world that his Fan family ancestors have beaten down, and it definitely cannot fall into the hands of the lord. Therefore, his defection this time was fake, and his real purpose was undoubtedly an attempt to confuse the pearls, lead the troops around the rear of our army, and then wave the army to break through our Wuwei Chinese army. As long as our Chinese army is defeated, then the current advantage of our Wuwei army will be meaningless, and it will be difficult to escape defeat. ”

Jia Xu's remarks, at first glance, seem to be an explanation of Fan Chou's deception, but in fact, they are admonishing Li Li. The meaning is to make Li Li aware of the upcoming situation in advance, although it is important to hold heavy troops and control the power of the world, but behind this power is also hidden turbulent waves, extremely dangerous, and the slightest carelessness will follow in the footsteps of Dong Zhuo, and there will be no return.

I have to say that Jia Xu's words can be described as well-intentioned, far-sighted, based on the present, looking to the future, and the pros and cons are all in his words.

Since ancient times, there has been no one more strategist than this.

After listening to Jia Xu's advice, Li Li looked up at the brilliant sunset, silent, his expression was neither sad nor joyful, and he was not shocked. After a while, he muttered, "Thank you for the teachings of the military advisor, the military advisor has worked hard these days. I have already made up my mind about this matter, and the military advisor does not need to worry. ”

As soon as these words came out, Jia Xu suddenly exhaled a long breath, and his suspended heart finally landed. He whispered softly: "The lord is a genius, both civil and military, resourceful and decisive, and he is really the only man in his life. The lord only needs to be patient, stabilize the foundation, and fight hard, sooner or later he will become a thousand years of hegemony! ”

"Hehehe!" Li Li smiled slightly when he heard this, and said with a smile: "These words are still too early to say at this time, everything has to be done step by step, and being down-to-earth is more important than anything else." Military advisor, since Fan Chou is here to surrender by fraud, I am afraid that I will have to bother the military advisor to make some arrangements, so as to be prepared. Fan Yong is young after all, and he is an uncle and nephew with Fan Chou, and recently recognized Fan Chou as his father-in-law. It's a pity that the weight in Fan Chou's heart is too light after all, and I can't let him lead the troops willingly, and the second brother Fan Yong may not do anything to Fan Chou. In this way, in the end, the people who dealt with Fan Chou's troops and horses had to take action from the military division, so as not to prevent our army from being attacked by the enemy. ”

"No, my subordinates will receive orders." Jia Xu bowed without hesitation. It's just that he didn't leave immediately, but looked up at Li Li's side face and asked in a low voice: "Our army has 80,000 soldiers and horses to hold the Chinese army, and it is easy to defeat Fan Chou's troops." However, the second general and Fan Chou are father and son after all, and they are close relatives, and their subordinates are quite scruples about this. Please also make the Lord public. ”

Li Li's sword eyebrows jumped suddenly when he heard this, a fierce color crossed his eyes, and he muttered in a low voice: "Before the war, I originally planned to give up the post of Wuwei Taishou to Uncle Fan, so that he could return to his hometown and retire in his old age. How could he be so stubborn when he is old, and he actually surrendered to the battle, which shows that he has a deep prejudice against me, and there is no room for change. He is old, and he has no eyes on the battlefield, and he will inevitably be injured by stray arrows. It's a pity ??????."

After Jia Xu heard these words, he bowed his head in understanding, and then beat his horse and left.

After Jia Xu left, Li Li turned his head to look at Fan Chou's galloping figure, and also saw Fan Yong leading thousands of soldiers to meet Fan Chou's army. Seeing this scene, Li Li lightly opened his lips and muttered to himself: "In troubled times, those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die." Since you are stubborn, then don't blame Li for being ruthless! ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Li immediately turned his head and no longer looked at the situation behind him, and sat on the mount of the Golden Lion Beast King, coldly watching the attack of the Tiger Ben Battalion a hundred steps away in front of him.

In front of the Wuwei Central Army.

Zhang Ji led more than 30,000 tiger battalion iron cavalry to fiercely attack the giant shield array on the periphery of the Wuwei Chinese army, leaping on the horse with horizontal swords, and shouting in his mouth. But seeing that his eyes were scarlet, the horizontal lines on his forehead were prominent, and his green muscles were bursting out, he gritted his teeth and angrily scolded the Xiliang cavalry for charging, trying to break through the giant shield array and meet Li Li's Chinese army in a short encounter. How can the giant shield array on the periphery of the Chinese army of Wuwei be stacked layer upon layer, with as many as 30,000 shield soldiers, the giant shield is in front, the spear and the hook and sickle are staggered for defense, and there are thousands of crossbows in the rear of the Chinese army, constantly shooting crossbow arrows, killing and injuring the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. For a while, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry could not break through the giant shield at all, and entered the formation, so he could only attack the giant shield array again and again in the limited sprint space, trying to forcibly break through the giant shield defense formation.

This kind of attack that forcibly breaks through the defensive formation is precisely a good opportunity for the fierce warrior to show his skills. Just now, Wuwei Iron Cavalry rushed into the formation, and it was Huan Fei, Teng Yu, Dian Wei, Ma Chao and others who forcibly broke the formation through their own bravery, so as to lead the cavalry to enter the Xiliang army formation. However, on the other hand, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry attacked the giant shield formation of the Wuwei Chinese Army, which was indeed extremely difficult, and it was always difficult to break the formation after repeated attacks. In the final analysis, it was still the lack of strong generals in the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to rush into battle, otherwise they would have entered the formation and joined the Wuwei Chinese army in a short battle. ———————— (To be continued)(To be continued......
