"But ······" Pei Zilie suddenly frowned.

"It's a matter of time before we turn our faces with the court, and I don't expect the court to be able to honestly reward us this time. A certain is now the Marquis of Hanzhong······" Li Xinchen said directly, immediately thought of something, and did not forget to sarcastically, "It is estimated that it is also one of the few Hou Ye who has recovered his own fiefdom, or the general of Zhenxi, if he continues to go up, he will be the prince, do you think the court will be so generous?" ”

"Hanzhong was supposed to be the fief of the county duke," Pei Zilie said thoughtfully, "If the imperial court directly moves you straight, it will inevitably have no sincerity at all, but if you really want to be rewarded, I'm afraid it will be the county king······ The county king in his twenties, this is clearly telling the world that you will be the master of this great Chen Jiangshan after you. ”

"What you're saying is a big rebellion." Li Xinchen couldn't help but joke that if it had been changed half a year ago, or even before coming to Xiangyang, it would have been impossible for such words to come directly from Pei Zilie's final words.

Pei Zilie rolled his eyes and was noncommittal.

And Li Xinchen said with a smile: "So I didn't count on the imperial court, and it was time to stand on my own." Otherwise, it is not a good thing to always be unjustifiable. ”

Pei Zilie suddenly shuddered and looked at Li Xinchen.

It is inevitable that there will be this day, but Pei Zilie didn't expect that it would come so quickly.

Li Xinchen is now a courtier of Nanchen no matter what, if he really does something against the Nanchen court, he will inevitably be said to be a "big rebel" in the future. And if Li Xinchen completely stands on his own, no matter what he does, naturally no one will stop him.

In fact, Li Xinchen now owns Bashu and Hanzhong, Nanzhong is also actively developing, Xiangyang and Fancheng and then Shangyong have also fallen into the hands, so that the size of the territory in Li Xinchen's hands has even been compared with Nanchen, although in terms of land quality, Nanchen is a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which is most suitable for producing grain, and Li Xinchen is just a mountainous area of Bashu, but at least the size of the region has been reached.

In many cases, this is sufficient.

What's more, Li Xinchen did not say that to stand on his own door is to ascend the throne and become the emperor.

Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger has always been this guy's forte.

But even so, there is still a lot to prepare, and once Bashu becomes independent, it means that it is very likely to face pressure from the south and north, which makes Pei Zilie even more worried. He is not afraid of war, as a soldier, he lives to fight, he is just worried that such a newly rising force is still weak after all, and whether it can withstand possible difficulties.

After all, Pei Zilie didn't want this group to die in infancy.

Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and handed a battle report to Pei Zilie: "You shouldn't have time to see that Boqing has broken through Yangping Pass, and the defending general Han Baohu has surrendered, and now the entire Hanzhong is in our hands, and the entire northwest to the north has been in chaos, all we need to do is send troops to pocket these territories." Except for the surroundings of Chang'an and Sanfu, the northwest has been left to us. ”

Pei Zilie grabbed the battle report and looked at the text on it in surprise.

It can be said that Xiao Shilian has created an unexpected miracle, of course, it is undeniable that there is also the credit of the Long Group behind this.

And this means that the best granaries - Longshang and the Northwest Horse Farm have fallen into the hands of Li Xinchen, at least in a short period of time to solve the problem of lack of food in Li Xinchen's subordinates, and fundamentally solve the difficulty of not being able to form cavalry.

The Southern Dynasty has never had the upper hand in the battle with the Northern Dynasty, and a big factor is that the cavalry of the Northern Dynasty is too strong. In this way, when fighting, the cavalry can often completely master the rhythm of the battlefield, and completely defeat the enemy through continuous advances, and when fighting with the cavalry, if there is no strong psychological quality and experience, it is very likely that when the cavalry is rolling in, it will not be able to support it first.

In addition, the Southern Dynasty people were shorter, so they were more flustered when facing the cavalry.

However, this does not mean that there are no excellent cavalry generals in the Southern Dynasties, such as Chen Qingzhi, a white-robed general fifty years ago, who swept Heluo with 7,000 white-robed light horses; Another example is the current hussar general Xiao Maha, who is best at light cavalry advances, and has completely collapsed the enemy's army again and again.

The defects of the Southern Dynasty in the cavalry still fell more on the horses, and the lack of enough war horses made it difficult for the Southern Dynasty to form a large-scale cavalry team that could compete with the Northern Dynasty, and the main horse farms were concentrated in the northwest, Monan and other places, which were not under the control of the Southern Dynasty.

If Li Xinchen now controls the northwest, then the natural horse farms under Liupan Mountain and Qilian Mountain will fall into Li Xinchen's sphere of influence, and Li Xinchen will naturally obtain the capital to form cavalry, which is also what surprises Pei Zilie.

Especially now that Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian have fought several battles around Taolinsai, the two sides have exhausted their physical strength, Yang Jian retreated to Tongguan, and Yu Wenxian gathered his troops on the line from Luoyang to Puban, unable to fight again. And Yang Jian naturally did not have enough troops to turn to the west to deal with Li Xinchen.

After all, Li Xinchen is a tiger, and Yu Wenxian is a poisonous snake, as long as Yang Jian turns around, Yu Wenxian definitely doesn't mind taking a bite on his back. Several major wars have suffered heavy losses, and the two sides have formed a blood feud, so it is naturally impossible to sit down and reconcile again.

In this way, as long as Li Xinchen does not touch the core defense passes of Chang'an such as Xiao Pass, then Yang Jian will definitely not take the initiative to provoke Li Xinchen.

"A certain will let Boqing grasp the degree, presumably Boqing also knows the stakes here." When Li Xinchen saw Pei Zilie's expression, he also guessed what he was thinking, and then said, "Whether we want to set up our own door or not, this city in front of us must be taken." After taking Xiangyang, our hand also reached into Jinghu, to be honest, in this case, I still hope that the imperial court can take the initiative to soften, after all, if you want to go out directly, you have to find a lot of hypocritical reasons······"

Pei Zilie smiled silently.

Of course, what Li Xinchen is worried about is not to find a reason, as long as Li Xinchen decides to take another step to a higher place, there will naturally be unambitious literati and writers who will squeeze their heads to help Li Xinchen write articles to find a reason, but Li Xinchen's group is still somewhat chaotic, and it is obvious that Li Xinchen does not dare to act rashly until the interests of various small groups are sorted out.

Otherwise, it will only be lifting a stone and shooting yourself in the foot.

In the final analysis, it is because Li Xinchen's group has expanded too quickly during this period of time, but this is not to blame Li Xinchen, it has come to this point, and it is impossible not to expand.

"Let's go, let's go ahead and have a look." Li Xinchen didn't smile, and he didn't know whether it was to stand up for himself or promise to be pure for three months to give Li Xinchen enough pressure.
