Li Xinchen narrowed his eyes and said, "Actually, I still hope that they will start there." This Gangneung City seems to be in our hands, but in the end, it is a place with many people, who knows what undercurrents are surging underneath, maybe it will give those pervasive guys an opportunity, it is better for us to take the initiative to choose a battlefield for them. ”

Xiao Shilian was stunned, and then bowed slightly. Although Li Xinchen's idea seems bold, it is not unreasonable. Now instead of having a headache in this Gangneung City, it is really better for them to take the initiative to demarcate the battlefield, and when the time comes, it will be easier to start in the wilderness.

This is not the first time Li Xinchen has done this kind of thing, the previous battle of Zhangshan is actually the same reason, rather than putting Wei Chi Er under the city of Jiangling, in danger of being flanked, it is better to take the initiative to go forward and block Wei Chi Er in the north of Zhangshan, so that although Li Xinchen and this partial division took a great risk, they can ensure that the entire Jiangling offensive is carried out step by step.

And it turns out that Lu Teng is also flesh and blood, and those Western Liang soldiers guarding Jiangling City are not as strong as they imagined, and this Jiangling City successfully fell into the hands of Nan Chen.

"But it's a bit risky." Shen Zunyi hesitated and said, no matter what, taking the initiative to push out the battlefield of the duel is using Chen Shubao's life as a bargaining chip, or even a bet, if you win, you can certainly breathe a sigh of relief, but what if you lose?

At that time, there will be no such thing as the East Palace.

"It's a risk worth taking." Xiao Shilian said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, the enemy will be dark and I will be clear, and we don't know when the enemy will appear." ”

Li Xinchen nodded: "Without further ado, we have to arrange it in advance, especially on Huarong Road, according to Xiao Jing, although the scenery here is good, but the mountains are high and dense, it is definitely not a safe place, in this way, Boqing, I have to trouble you to find a few local old people, so that they can take us to find out all the roads on the mountain." ”

After a pause, Li Xinchen then stretched out his hand and pointed on the map: "Huarong Road connects Wulin and Huarong, although most of these two places are now abandoned because of the strong walls of the Xiliang people, but at least those houses are still there, build a camp on this basis, and select elites to guard both ends of this road." ”

"This person can be responsible," Xiao Shilian bowed his head, and then frowned and said, "But will this startle the snake?" ”

With such a fanfare deployment of troops, even if those so-called dead soldiers want to do it, they have to consider it, after all, they are dead soldiers, and their mission is to behead, not to face off with the main force of the huge army.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Li Xinchen's mouth: "What I'm most worried about now is that this fish won't take the bait." ”

Xiao Shilian and Shen Zunyi glanced at each other, and a chill ran down their spines.

Not to mention that these dead soldiers have never been afraid to fight strong enemies, just to say that this side has made such a big noise in Huarong Dao, they must also know that there will definitely be important people coming. Instead of crashing in Jiangling City, it is better to come directly to this Huarong Road to make a final decision!

Li Xinchen's speculation and pondering of people's hearts has really reached a certain level. It's just that I don't know what extent his opponent is and whether he will really take the bait.

"Of course, we have to make sure that we know much more about the situation in the surrounding mountains and forests than they do." Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, even one negligence may be fatal at that time." ”

The stakes are high, and Li Xinchen certainly didn't dare to make sure that everything would go according to plan, after all, the most important thing for them was not to deal with these seemingly endless opponents, but to ensure Chen Shubao's safety.

From the overall situation, as long as Chen Shubao can live peacefully until Chen Ji's death, then the East Palace will be considered a success.

"Naturally, I'll go to Tuas now." Xiao Shilian nodded hurriedly, although he was impatient, he still had a bit of a number of things to do and how to do them.

Li Xinchen also responded: "I also went to the barracks to give a few words to Zhishen, and this time I have to rely on our soldiers and horses." ”

After a pause, Li Xinchen smiled and looked at Shen Zunyi, who was eager to try: "Zunyi, do you want to be together?" ”

"Obey your fate!" Shen Zunyi hurriedly responded.

Without waiting for his voice to fall, Chen Yu hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, and when he saw Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian, he immediately raised his hand: "I can be regarded as finding you two boys, why don't you stay in your own mansion, what are you doing here?" ”

"Uncle Yu," Xiao Shilian nodded, "Isn't this a question for the Linhai King of Xiliang, this is relatively close to the prison." Uncle Yu is in such a hurry to find us, but what's the matter? ”

Chen Yu smiled and handed the urgent report in his hand to Xiao Shilian: "I want to congratulate the two of you, take a look, the court's reward has come down." ”

"Oh?" Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian both showed surprises on their faces.

You must know that Xiao Maha's merit book should not be sent to the capital for a day or two, and this time the imperial court is really surprisingly fast. But this is also reasonable, after all, after the Jiangling City is taken, I am afraid that the imperial court has already begun to prepare the reward, and when the merit book is delivered, it is only necessary to match the reward with the person, and it is not troublesome.

From the reward report sent by Jiankang Mansion, the first name that caught my eye was not Xiao Maha, but Li Xinchen. This shows that the imperial court also recognized Li Xinchen's first contribution in this battle.

And behind Li Xinchen's name, it is even more impressively written, "General Dangkou, give 100 taels of gold and 1,000 horses of silk."

Rao is Xiao Shilian and Shen Zunyi and others expected that the imperial court would definitely not hesitate to reward, and when they saw this, they couldn't help but gasp. From a small battle master - or Xiao Maha privately granted the battle master, can only lead Xiao Maha's personal guards - to become a real miscellaneous general of Da Chen, this can no longer be described as Qingyun Pingbu.

You must know that Li Xinchen has directly crossed the levels of joining the army, protecting the army, general Pi, partial general, etc., and it is not an exaggeration to say that he "ascended to the sky in one step".

Although the miscellaneous general sounds nothing, it means that this person has completely entered the middle level of the Nanchen military generals, before Pei Zilie followed Wu Mingche to Huainan and Huaibei, and made a lot of contributions, but in the end he was just a miscellaneous general.

Even although Xiao Maha had commanded the entire vanguard in the Battle of Luliang, his official title of "General Wu Yi" still belonged to the miscellaneous general, which was just a relatively high-level one. After Xiao Maha entered the "Left Guard General", he could be regarded as completely getting rid of the title of miscellaneous general.

Not to mention that immediately following the title of "General Dangkou", there are also real rewards of gold and silk cloth, which shows that the court and even His Majesty are really blue-eyed for Li Xinchen.
