Chapter 586: Patience

The reason why Li Xinchen said so confidently is because Wei Xiaokuan has not once stood on the dividing line of choice in history, especially during the Wei Chi Hui Rebellion in history, Wei Xiaokuan faced the call of his relatives and the pull of Wei Chi Hui, and finally remained unmoved, defeated Wei Chi Hui in one fell swoop, broke through Yecheng, and avoided the Northern Dynasty from being divided into two again.

It can be seen that Wei Xiaokuan can still grasp the general situation, and Li Xinchen believes that Wei Xiaokuan should know what the Northern Zhou Dynasty needs now, and even more knows how Li Xinchen will "entertain" him if he does not agree.

Compared with Wei Xiaokuan, Wei Chi Hui relied on Yecheng to repel the Sui army several times in history, but in the end, because there were too many people watching the battle, he had to shrink the defense line in order to avoid hurting the people, and finally collapsed on the whole line.

It can be said that Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Yuan's performance in history at least knows the importance and follows the overall situation, so Li Xinchen believes that they will know what to do.

"Li Xinchen ······" Wei Xiaokuan stood in front of the map with his hands in his hands.

Cui Hongdu bowed his head slightly and stood behind Wei Xiaokuan, Li Xinchen's meaning had already been conveyed to Wei Xiaokuan, and the rest was no longer something that he, the general of the defeated army, could make a decision.

Li Xun stood up and said: "General, the enemy is stubbornly defending Changgu, our attacks in the past two days have basically been fruitless, coupled with the loss of grain and grass in the rear, and the mood of the army is fluctuating, Li Xinchen clearly does not intend to give us other choices, otherwise we can really only ······."

There are only two people in the camp, Li Xun and Cui Hongdu, so Li Xun does not hide some words. What is the situation here, Wei Xiaokuan knows very well, the army that has been tired after a long battle, coupled with the lack of food, it is only a matter of time before they want to take Changgu, but if they want to open up the road from the south side of Cangxi Valley to the face of the sword, it is not as simple as imagined.

Li Xinchen's strategic intentions have been revealed at this moment, what he wants is not to simply rely on this mountain to maneuver with Wei Xiaokuan, nor does he really want to defend every step.

He wanted to block the road on the north side directly after effectively eliminating the living forces under Wei Xiaokuan's command, and finally forced Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Yuan to negotiate with him.

The status of the two sides was unequal after all, and Li Xinchen's weakness in strength made him not qualified to talk to Wei Xiaokuan and them equally, but now it is different, although the number of soldiers and horses under Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Hui is still very large, but the life and death of so many soldiers and horses are completely in the hands of Li Xinchen.

Li Xinchen already has enough qualifications, and even he is a head higher than Wei Xiaokuan and others, and now Li Xinchen takes the initiative to negotiate with them, instead of waiting for Wei Xiaokuan to bow his head to Li Xinchen if he can't bear it, and he is already very face-saving.

At least it shows that Li Xinchen is sincere.

Wei Xiaokuan sighed softly: "This son's calculation is transparent······"

Li Xun and Cui Hongdu glanced at each other, their expressions were a little solemn, Li Xinchen could be said to have considered the entire future battle situation, so it seemed that all they could do was to sit down with Li Xinchen and talk calmly.

Looking back at the map, Wei Xiaokuan's heart was a little emotional, thinking that when he first entered Shu, he stood beside Wei Shou, He Louzigan, Li Xun, etc., and famous generals gathered, but now half of the people have followed Wei Shou or He Louzigan to die in battle, and the only ones who can really make Wei Xiaokuan trust are Li Xun and Cui Hongdu.

Wei Xiaokuan couldn't even figure out what the purpose of this battle was for a while, but it had come to this point, and it was useless to regret it, Wei Xiaokuan had to solve the situation in front of him and take the soldiers out of this Jedi.

"Send someone to tell Li Xinchen that the negotiation location is in the barracks in Changgu." Wei Xiaokuan said in a low voice, "There is also someone to contact Wei Chi Yuan immediately." ”

Li Xun and Cui Hongdu subconsciously glanced at each other, they knew that Wei Xiaokuan obviously had a certain number in their hearts, and at this time they had to admire Wei Xiaokuan, after all, Wei Xiaokuan was able to endure such a huge pain and failure to negotiate with Li Xinchen, and they couldn't do it in this state of mind.

When Wei Shou's body was sent over by Li Xinchen, Li Xun once thought that Wei Xiaokuan would be angry and wanted to fight with Li Xinchen, but Wei Xiaokuan was still arranging many matters in an orderly manner and presiding over the attack, and he didn't seem to be disturbed by distractions, especially now that Li Xinchen stood up to negotiate with Wei Xiaokuan, it was tantamount to making Wei Xiaokuan give up the last chance to take revenge.

However, Wei Xiaokuan still accepted it.

Maybe this is the so-called "being able to endure what ordinary people can't bear", or maybe this is the biggest gap between them and Wei Xiaokuan.

And Wei Xiaokuan just knocked lightly on the table, he could vaguely guess what Li Xinchen's fundamental purpose was, and he only hoped that he would be able to compete with Li Xinchen at that time, at least so that the Northern Zhou would not lose too badly in the affairs of Bashu.

————————————————————

Li Xinchen stood at the mouth of the valley of the long valley, looking at the entrance of the valley with smoke and dust.

I have to say that Wei Xiaokuan's strong attack still made Li Xinchen pinch a cold sweat, but since Li Xinchen put a cronie like Xiao Shilian in Changgu, he obviously made his position clear.

Xiao Shilian did not live up to Li Xinchen's trust in him, and Wei Xiaokuan left hundreds of corpses at the mouth of the Changgu Valley in vain.

"Shizhong, do you really plan to make peace with Wei Xiaokuan?" Xiao Shilian walked quickly to Li Xinchen's side, with some resentment in his voice.

Li Xinchen glanced at him, with Xiao Shilian's character, it was also expected that he would be dissatisfied, but he believed that Xiao Shilian could follow his opinion: "Why, I think it's impossible······"

"We've been fighting for so long, and finally talking to Wei Xiaokuan, I always feel a little aggrieved." Xiao Shilian spread his hands a little helplessly, "So many brothers have fallen, and in the end, I don't know if this is the result they want to see." ”

Li Xinchen didn't speak in a hurry, he knew that such an idea must not only be Xiao Shilian, but also Du Qi, Li Xun and other Ba leaders, and they didn't want to see Li Xinchen compromise with the Northern Zhou at this time, after all, the hatred between the Ba people and the Northern Zhou court was not small.

However, Li Xinchen believes that the Ba people will definitely not directly give him advice, in the final analysis, he and the Ba people still have a command relationship, these Ba people have already received too many benefits from Li Xinchen, and Li Xinchen's actions also tell them that there is no compromise between him and the Northern Zhou.

Therefore, Li Xinchen can explain to the Ba people with his own actions, but now he must first explain his considerations to Xiao Shilian.

If even Xiao Shilian doesn't understand himself, then Li Xinchen really doesn't have much confidence in whether he can negotiate peace.

In essence, Li Xinchen's left arm and right arm - Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie - were originally two people with different personalities.
