"Zhongli's big victory, but it is cheaper than Xiao Hong. ”

A purple-shirted middle-aged man on the left side of Wang Seng Bian looked at Liuying on the side of the steps with some emotion, "If you dare to listen to my advice and let Chen Baxian lead the army to set up ambushes in many places on Yuan Ying's way back to Luoyang, Yuan Ying will definitely have no intention of fighting, and even if he and Xing Lian's army return to Luoyang, they will definitely be greatly injured and suffer even greater losses." ”

"Tai Changqing is loyal and upright, and he can't even come to such a private gathering as us, and in his opinion, he is also suspected of forming a party for personal gain. However, what he often said is very reasonable, as long as the Southern Dynasty is prosperous, he doesn't care about temporary gains and losses. ”

Wang Seng Bian smiled indifferently and said: "Even if Xiao Hong has taken all the credit, he has won the emperor's favor and trust, but after so many victories, he can't convince the army, and those border army generals are more and more unaccustomed to him, in the long run, is it a gain or a loss?"

"Listening to Da Sima's words today, it is better than reading a book for ten years. ”

Several people in his seat heard him talk and laugh, but their faces became solemn, and they all said with emotion.

In fact, Wang Seng Bian's words were not completely explained.

The real meaning of these words should be like this, in the vulgar words of the broken houses in Jiankang City: Xiao Hong, a stupid ball, thought that he was holding the military power to the death, and when he had the opportunity to win the battle, he would make a profit, he was a ready-made prince who had been sitting for a long time, and he didn't understand at all, after fighting for a long time, there were no more generals who became his henchmen, what was the use.

However, these big men are really smart people, and this unspoken meaning is very clear.

Now most of the generals of the Northern Frontier Army are all interested in him, the big Sima, and Lin Yi is the real newly rising general, if it is tomorrow's court, it will really be a general of more than ten classes, and the merits of the battle of Zhongli will spread all over the Southern Dynasty, what kind of prestige will this young general star of the Tiece Army have in the people?

It just so happened that the Xiao family's brains were muddy and pushed Lin Yi out, of course he had to appease him and take him under his command.

In this way, no matter how powerful Xiao Hong is, no matter how much he is favored by the emperor, those important figures in the military are still headed by Da Sima.

"According to the latest military situation today, the border army should capture Shoucheng tomorrow. ”

Li Rongshi smiled, all of them were friends with the same heart, otherwise Wang Seng Bian would never say such a thing in front of them.

......

Xiao Hong's cautious and conservative use of troops is obvious to all.

Not to mention the generals of the Southern Dynasty and their insightful officers, even the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty did not look down on Xiao Hong's use of troops.

Before Xiao Hong was in the camp step by step, constantly losing ground to consume the tactics of the Northern Wei army, in the eyes of the Northern Wei people, it was simply a refreshing and can't, many generals of the Northern Wei Dynasty even named Xiao Hong "Xiao Woman", which means that he is the same as the women of the Southern Dynasty, and he is obedient and has no initiative.

However, many generals of the border army of the Southern Dynasty are not fuel-efficient lamps, in the last years of the previous dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty was already strong, but these generals in the south were mediocre in the previous emperor, all kinds of supplies were insufficient, and the rule of officials was also chaotic, but they were still able to prevent the Northern Wei Dynasty from taking advantage. Many of these generals are themselves generals of the previous dynasty, and some are subordinates of the generals at that time.

Now that we have enough support, and we have the right time, we can fight back with all our might, and the results are indeed amazing.

After Zhongli's victory, in just over ten days, the northern border army has captured fourteen cities in a row.

Shoucheng is a big city in the north, and the Northern Wei Dynasty amassed 100,000 troops before, in Li Rongshi's opinion, it should be able to be captured tomorrow, but the actual movement of the border army was faster than he predicted.

Before nightfall, most of the Northern Wei troops in Shoucheng had been evacuated, leaving only a few to set fire to the city, although a lot of streets and alleys were burned, but the border army of the Southern Dynasty quickly broke the city, but even the fire did not spread completely.

At this time, even the Chinese army of the Southern Dynasties in the rear had already entered Shoucheng, and many camps were erected around a dragon king temple with a history of several hundred years in Shoucheng.

The bonfire of the Southern Dynasty border army stationed in the city had just been lit, and a carriage arrived at the outskirts of the camp, and an old man in a black robe was led by one of Xiao Hong's generals outside Xiao Hong's tent in the night.

"Mr. Fei Da, why are you here? ”

Listening to the report outside, the moment he saw the black-robed old man who entered the camp, Xiao Hong was very surprised, and couldn't help but stand up.

"Meet Generalissimo Xiao. ”

The old man in the black robe had a face like the bark of an old tree, but his eyes were shining, but he was respectful to Xiao Hong, and he bowed seriously at the moment.

"Quick, tea. ”

Xiao Hong motioned for the black-robed old man to sit down, and at the same time instructed the general.

This black-robed old man is called Fei Xu, one of the Xiao family's great offerings, and he was already his father's great offering when Xiao Hong was young, and he also taught him the means of cultivation and identification of poisons and poisons.

The great worship of the Xiao family is known to be powerful even outside, not to mention Xiao Hong, who practiced with Mr. Fei Da when he was a child.

In the past few years, this Mr. Fei Da has become the worship of the palace, that is, if he wants to dispatch, it is equivalent to asking people from the hands of the emperor.

"I didn't come out this time because of the emperor's order. ”

Fei Xuan looked at Xiao Hong's respect for himself, and was satisfied, but his face was even more respectful, he hung his head slightly, and said slowly in a soft voice without any special emotions on his face: "Before the battle of Zhongli ended, I heard that when Lin Yi killed Xi Ruyu, I had already set off to see you, and I heard Zhongli's victory on the way, and later I knew what you meant... You don't want this person to come to the northern border army, for fear that he will sit big in the army, and support each other with Wei Rui, which will be unfavorable to you, but I dare to say it, I am afraid that you are sacrificing your roots and neglecting the most important point. ”

Xiao Hong was slightly stunned, and his expression was instantly serious, "I neglected the most important point? What is it, please Mr. Fei Da for your guidance." ”

"The most important thing for him now is the position and the number of troops he controls. ”

Fei Xuan said respectfully and seriously: "His most important identity now is the master of the Sword Pavilion, and the closed disciple of He Cultivation, if you think about it, Xi Ruyu can't kill him, even Yang Luo can't kill him, and then I heard about the detailed battle situation, not that the master of the Sword Pavilion is protecting him, but his personal combat power is really amazing, and he has won consecutive battles, and now the most important thing is that the cultivators of the Chengtian Realm, I'm afraid no matter how much they can't kill him, if he grows up for a while, I'm afraid he is not only invincible in the Chengtian Realm, but also invincible under the sub-sage." Think about it, if one person is so strong that no matter how many Divine Mind Realm cultivators can't kill him, he can fight almost with the strength of one person, leaving more than 100,000 troops helpless, how terrifying is this. So Lord Wang, what you should think about most is not his general's position, not his relationship with those border army generals, but the exercises he has learned. ”

When he came in before, he called Xiao Hong the generalissimo, and at this time he called the prince, it was not a slip of the tongue, but now Xiao Hong himself is the generalissimo of the border army, and he was called like this when he first came in, which was enough to show his respect, but at this time, he called the prince because Xiao Hong himself was the king of Linchuan, and when he was worshipping in the Xiao family, including when Xiao Hong studied with him, he always called him the prince.

Such a title is the old love, and it seems to be his own family.

Xiao Hong's eyes suddenly flickered violently, he looked at Fei Xu, and said, "What do you mean?"

"I am very interested in his exercises, and I am willing to try to take away his exercises for the prince. Fei Xuan said: "If you can get the exercises, you have the opportunity to kill him for the prince, and you can't do it." ”

Xiao Hong's face was inconvenient, but he thought about it coldly, and said, "It's just that even a strong man like Xi Ruyu can't help him... Mr. Fei Da, are you really sure?"

"I heard that he was not afraid of any True Yuan means, so those cultivators were helpless against him. But Lord Wang, I'm afraid you have forgotten that I am the head of the Yinshan Sect, and our Yinshan Sect is not a true yuan method. Fei Xuan smiled slightly and said, "If the prince agrees, I will send someone to do it first, just to ensure that nothing goes wrong, I also want to secondment a master at the prince's hand." ”

Xiao Hong's eyes flashed, and he understood who Fei Xuan was talking about, he did not hesitate, and said, "Just act according to Mr. Fei Da's wishes." ”
