Chapter 663: Summer is Cool
Shen Jungao bowed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Li Xinchen has already set off for Ba County, and he will lead eight hundred people to Jiankang Mansion at that time, and the specific arrangements have been finalized." β
"Eight hundred," Fu Wei said intently, "Li Xinchen is really bold. β
Shen Jungao knocked on the table gently: "With Li Xinchen's overall planning ability and military command ability, as long as he can break away from Jiankang Mansion, then he can naturally get out safely with these eight hundred people, so for him, the more soldiers and horses the better, but when there are few soldiers, it is not impossible to do anything." β
After a pause, Shen Jungao said with a wry smile: "Isn't there less miracle that this kid has created by winning more with less?" β
Fu Weiying nodded peacefully, Li Xinchen was famous for relying on the stubborn defense of Zhangshan County at the beginning, but the subsequent Battle of Bashu made him a typical example of "outstanding strange soldiers" and "winning more with less", and people recognized the new and more tricky Li Xinchen.
Even if he knew that Li Xinchen only had 800 people in his hands, no general was willing to use two cups or even three times as many soldiers and horses to fight him.
Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Hui have already failed enough, and Li Xinchen's prestige really doesn't need another stepping stone. Therefore, I am afraid that even Xiao Maha will have to weigh this opponent carefully when he really faces Li Xinchen.
So it's not that Li Xinchen is bold, but when the words "Li Xinchen" appeared, it was enough to top thousands of troops, otherwise Shen Jungao and Fu Wei would not be so nervous here.
"Does Your Majesty have any other will?" Shen Jun asked in a low voice.
"Not yet, but it is conceivable that Your Majesty will not accept it so directly," Fu Wei was a little helpless in his voice, "Even if you accept it now, you can look at it, when Li Xinchen comes to Jiankang Mansion, he will definitely feel better." β
Shen Jungao bowed slightly, if His Majesty had any ideas, the best thing the East Palace needed to do was to try to stop him. At least now Li Xinchen has shown enough sincerity, so for Nan Chen, the best choice is, of course, to listen to what Li Xinchen thinks before making a judgment.
Maybe His Majesty also has such thoughts, otherwise he would not have let Li Xinchen come to Jiankang Mansion with soldiers and horses.
"I have already seen Xu Xiang," Shen Jungao explained why he was late, "Xu Xiang seems to still trust Li Xinchen." β
"Oh?" Fu Wei raised his eyebrows.
Shen Jungao smiled bitterly: "In the end, Xu Xiang said 'wait and see what happens', and Mu naturally didn't want to ask more." β
If it was a normal time, Fu Wei would definitely complain directly, "This old fox", but this time he couldn't say anything, because he knew that what this old fox said this time was not wrong, and waiting to see what happened might be their only choice.
This choice and feeling made Fu Wei very uncomfortable, because it meant that all the actions of the Nanchen Imperial Court and the East Palace would depend on Li Xinchen's will, and they would fall into passivity in an all-round way, but at least for the current East Palace, without Li Xinchen's decision, they would not be able to judge which way they should go next.
"Okay, then wait and see." Fu Wei said slowly.
And Shen Jungao raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky: "Wait and see what happensΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· I don't know what Li Xinchen is going to do next? β
As he spoke, Shen Jungao put his hands behind his back.
When this sentence came out, he always felt that there was a wisp of coolness behind him climbing up his spine, which was irresistible.
Maybe it's because of the coolness of the wind, or maybe it's because of the coolness of the decision you've just made.
This feeling of pinning your hopes on others is really not good.
Li Xinchen, are you an enemy or a friend of the East Palace?
ββββββββββ-
"Ahh Li Xinchen sneezed and sniffed, if it were changed, Li Xinchen would even be in the mood to complain about "someone else said something bad", but now he is not in the mood.
The rain is dripping, and the chill spreads out from every bit of rain, refreshing people's muscles and bones, and the rain in the mountains is a little damp and cold compared to the continuous plum rain in the south of the Yangtze River. Especially on the school field under this mountain, the clouds and mist on the mountain have made it impossible to see the mountain peaks, and this cloud and mist seems to be spreading to the bottom of the mountain, preparing to shroud this school field in the clouds.
The rain fell on the helmet, and then flowed down the helmet on the armor, and then smashed heavily into the potholes on the ground, causing ripples. Li Xinchen squinted slightly, looking at the rows of figures standing on the school field.
These are all elite soldiers selected from various places under Li Xinchen's command, some are from Xiao Shilian's command, some are from Pei Zilie's command, and some are Ba people, all of them are soldiers who have made great contributions in the process of Li Xinchen's attack on Bashu, in other words, these 800 people standing on the school field at this time, each of them has a life in his hands, and not two or three.
If it were in another place, such an army would never have gathered together, and such a gathering of so many elites would be a waste in the eyes of many generals, and only when it was really in a desperate situation, and it was necessary to select strikers and light troops, such an army would be assembled to charge at the forefront as a death squad.
And now that Li Xinchen has gathered such an army, he knows that everyone in this is a monster, and he knows that they together are more like a sophisticated killing machine, and Li Xinchen is going to rely on this army to rush into Jiankang Mansion, and then come back safely!
Footsteps suddenly sounded, Cheng Feng and Xu Deyan walked quickly to the general platform, one left and one right stood beside Li Xinchen, Cheng Feng arched his hand, and said loudly: "General Qiyu, the eight hundred soldiers have been assembled, please give the general a lecture." β
Cheng Feng is Xiao Shilian's subordinate, and Xu Deyan is Pei Zilie's subordinate, so the two of them came obviously because these two people have more flexible brains, and Xu Deyan is Xu Ling's grandson, once he enters Jiankang Mansion, he will be better to speak.
In addition, Li Xinchen was accompanied by Gu Yewang and Tang Zhengliang's eldest son Tang Qi, these two people came as civil officials, so they didn't come to the school, after all, with Gu Yewang's body and bones, standing in this wind and rain for half an hour, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out.
Li Xinchen bowed his head, took a step forward, looked at the figures in the wind and rain, and said loudly: "There are eight hundred of you, if you don't believe it, you can stand up and count them yourself." β
There was a low laugh in the wind.
And Li Xinchen then said: "There are only 800 of you, but you have to follow a certain person to the Longtan Tiger's Den in Jiankang Mansion, are you afraid?" β
"Don't be afraid!" This time, all the soldiers straightened their backs and answered in unison.
On the school field, in the wind and rain, swords and guns stood like a forest, flashing with cold, adding a little chill to the already not hot wind and rain.
