"It's already burning your brows, how can you still have the leisure to drink tea there?" Dugu Yunliu, the second prince of Northern Liang, pointed to the man in Chinese clothes who was drinking tea, and said angrily.

The man in the Chinese costume put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and said with a smile: "Why is His Royal Highness the Second Prince so angry? Xiao Jingcong, the peerless general of Da Xiao, came in person, and it was natural that he lost the battle. ”

"Hmph, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, isn't there any of your Yuanxia among those dead soldiers? Prince Li Yuanxiao? Dugu Yunliu had a gloomy face, and snorted coldly in a strange manner.

It turned out that the man in the gorgeous costume was none other than the prince of Yuanxia Kingdom, Li Yuanxiao, who led Yuanxia Yipintang.

Li Yuanxiao didn't care, "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, this Xiao Jingcong's prestige and fame in your Beiliang should have been thunderous for a long time, what is there to be angry about losing in his hands." Now is it time to readjust your strategy and wait for the opportunity to defeat the elite of Daxiao led by Xiao Jingcong in one fell swoop, and then you Beiliang will be able to raise your eyebrows and be famous all over the world! ”

"Prince, you don't need to say this nicely. Beiliang and Yuanxia are grasshoppers on a rope, Beiliang can defeat Da Xiao, can't you Yuanxia also get a piece of the pie? When the time comes, our coalition forces will directly aim at the capital, destroy the Great Xiao, and divide the territory of the Great Xiao equally, wouldn't it be beautiful to divide the world in two? Dugu Yunliu narrowed his eyes and smiled, as if the country of the Great Xiao was already within reach.

Li Yuanxiao didn't forget to splash cold water on the lonely clouds, sighed, and sneered: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, you can't help but think too beautifully, right?" You have also seen that Xiao Jingcong is like a god with soldiers, and if you want to defeat him on the battlefield, it is tantamount to a fool's dream, which is more difficult than ascending to the sky! What's more, this time he brought 100,000 elite soldiers to help, plus the local defenders in northern Xinjiang, a total of fifteen armies, do you think we can deal with it? ”

"Xiao Jingcong is indeed a difficult opponent, but this time when he comes to Northern Xinjiang, this prince will definitely let him have no return." Dugu Yunliu clenched his fists, and then said to Li Yuanxiao: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you don't need to grow up others to destroy our prestige. Xiao Jingcong's 100,000-strong army sounds huge, and there are only two or three soldiers available in it, as for the defenders of the northern Xinjiang scattered in various passes, only the defenders of Yuncheng have a small climate, but there is no need to worry......"

"Oh, listening to Your Highness, it seems that you already have other ways to deal with it?" Li Yuanxiao raised his sword eyebrows lightly, hooked his bright lips, and asked with a smile.

"It's not a secret, the city lord of Cloud City, Zhang Huatian, is the old acquaintance of this prince, I have already written with him earlier, and when it is necessary, he will open the city gate and let our army enter the city, and when the time comes, the soldiers will take Cloud City without blood, and use Cloud City as a stronghold, there will be no towns in the entire northern Xinjiang that can be defended, even if Xiao Jingcong has the ability to reach the sky, if there is no supply, sooner or later it will be just a turtle in the urn!"

When Lonely Yunliu said this, he had a bamboo in his chest, and he seemed to have seen Xiao Jingcong's defeat.

Li Yuanxiao frowned slightly, without commenting, his deep eyes looked into the distance, as if he saw a woman's shadow. His plan was a little different from that of Lonely Cloud. This time in the Northern Xinjiang War, Beiliang and Da Xiao are the two sides of the main battle, his Yuan Xia's military strength and military strength are far inferior to these two countries, and Bei Liang formed an alliance against Da Xiao, even if he wins in the end, he is just licking meat and drinking soup under Bei Liang's hands.

Maybe one of them is unhappy, and they kick you away, and they won't even drink the soup at that time.

So what Li Yuanxiao had to do was to maintain a weak balance between the two countries and wait for an opportunity to strengthen their Yuanxia power. He set his sights on a woman, who is likely to affect the final trend of this war, and only this woman can shake the peerless god of war Xiao Jingcong, she is Xiao Jingcong's only weakness.

Even though he has failed once, it doesn't mean that he will continue to fail all the time. Li Yuanxiao swore that he must get this strange woman, and wanted to see what kind of woman was like who could make the dignified peerless general Xiao Jingcong fascinated!

……

Ten miles outside the city of Yuncheng, Xiao Jun's camp.

Xiao Jingcong stood on the top of the cliff, looking at the great rivers and mountains in the northern Xinjiang, smelling the smell of blood in the air that had not yet dissipated, his face was as heavy as water, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Yan Zixi walked over with a basket of fruits, and when she saw Xiao Jingcong's bleak back, she couldn't help frowning.

"After returning from the battle, Jing Cong has become silent, and he won't be unable to think about it, right?"

Yan Zixi once read war phobia in a book, saying that after the war, those soldiers often suffer from a series of negative emotions such as anxiety and panic, and even many soldiers who have returned to normal life commit suicide directly. This mental illness was brought about after the war, and if there was no one to treat him psychologically, it is likely that he would not be able to get out of this shadow......

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi hurriedly walked over, changing her sad face, not wanting her negative emotions to affect Xiao Jingcong, "Jingcong, come, eat fruit." Yan Zixi smiled slightly, took out a pear from the basket she was carrying and stuffed it into Xiao Jingcong's hand, "This is a pear from Northern Xinjiang, it has a sweet taste, a lot of juice, and it is delicious, can you try it?" ”

Xiao Jingcong turned her head to look at Yan Zixi, and barely squeezed out a smile, "Xi'er, I don't have an appetite for my husband and I don't want to eat ......."

"Jingcong, you don't eat rice, you don't eat pears, your body will not be able to bear it if you go on like this. You, don't think so much, hurry up and eat this pear first. "Love the Book House

Xiao Jingcong saw Yan Zixi pushing and pulling again and again, but after all, she couldn't be stubborn, took the pear, hesitated slightly, and then said, "Xi'er, why don't I give you half of it?" ”

"No, no, no!" Yan Zixi hurriedly waved her hand when she heard this, "Jingcong, how can this pear be divided?" Haven't you heard that pears equals separation? So, you can eat alone, if I want to eat, there is still one here! ”

"Okay." Xiao Jingcong responded, nodded, wiped the pear in his hand, and finally bit it.

Yan Zixi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xiao Jingcong was willing to eat, "Huh, Jingcong, what are you thinking about standing here just now?" Are you still worried about the war? ”

Xiao Jingcong put down the half-gnawed pear, sighed, and replied leisurely: "Xi'er, do you know how many casualties were killed and injured in the first battle yesterday?" ”

This is a military secret, Yan Zixi is impossible to know as a woman, she shook her head and asked curiously: "I...... I don't know ......."

"The Northern Liang and Yuanxia coalition forces suffered 20,000 casualties, and we also suffered close to 4,000 casualties...... So many living lives have been sleeping on this land forever, and even the corpses can't return to their homeland......"

"Jingcong, you don't have to blame yourself too much. War, by itself, will be accompanied by bloodshed and sacrifice. It is not terrible to have sacrifices, but it is terrible to sacrifice so many people's lives and not to buy any peace, which is the saddest thing. Saying that, Yan Zixi leaned over, stretched out her hand, and put it on Xiao Jingcong's arm, "Jingcong, I will always accompany you, accompany you to eliminate those wars, and bring peace and hope to the people of this land again!" ”

"Xi'er......" Xiao Jingcong glanced at Yan Zixi deeply, even if she didn't say too much, everything was silent......

……

That night, General Li Hui finally woke up from his coma and saw that he was lying in the camp tent, struggling to get up from the bed, when Xiao Jingcong walked in, he had changed his armor and came to the camp in civilian clothes.

When he raised his eyes and saw that General Li Hui had woken up, Xiao Jingcong hurriedly walked over and asked, "General Li Hui, are you awake?" What is the injury? ”

When Li Hui heard this, he felt even more ashamed, and wanted to get up and kneel in front of Xiao Jingcong, "Lord Xiao, the end will be guilty, the end will be guilty!" ”

Xiao Jingcong gently helped Li Hui up from the ground, and asked calmly: "Why did General Li Hui say this?" What sin are you? ”

Hearing this, Li Hui couldn't hide the shame in his heart: "It's all because the last general insisted on going his own way and lost so many brothers...... It's all because of me...... will ...... will ...... Please cure the sins of the last general, and the last general will not be able to redeem even if he dies! ”

Li Hui wept bitterly, knocking his head on the ground with a "knock knock", and regretted it.

"General Li is only eager to make contributions, and if he wants the people of Northern Xinjiang to live a stable life as soon as possible, and give me a peace of Daxiao, what is the crime?" Xiao Jingcong said and bowed down, and reached out again to help Li Hui up.

Seeing this, Li Hui was even more ashamed, gritted his teeth violently, and then slowly stood up from the ground: "Lord Wang, the last general will be able to meet the prince, it is really a blessing for the last general to have three lives, and the last general is willing to follow the prince to the death!" ”

Xiao Jingcong heard Li Hui show his loyalty like this, and knew that he really knew that he had confessed his mistakes and repented, so it was okay, after Xi'er had strained his spirit, Li Hui would definitely not act impulsively in the future. Xiao Jingcong has got another capable cadre, which is really a blessing for Xiao.

General Li still lay on the bed to recuperate. In the previous battle, the morale of the enemy army was greatly damaged, presumably Beiliang and Yuan Xia did not dare to use troops easily, General Li can rest assured to recover from his injuries and wait until the future to go into battle to kill the enemy! ”

"Yes, everything is in accordance with the orders of the prince!" After this battle, Li Hui dared not comply, respectfully hugged Xiao Jingcong, and went down honestly.

Xiao Jingcong nodded with satisfaction, and then walked out of the wounded army camp.

Back at the big tent of the Chinese army, Yan Zixi saw that Xiao Jingcong was in a good mood, and hurriedly went over and poured him a cup of fragrant tea and brought it over, "Jingcong, seeing that you are smiling, you seem to be in a good mood, is there anything happy about it?" ”
