Li Xinchen is still the same Li Xinchen who resolutely proposed the plan for the battle of Bashu at the beginning, he never disdains to wait for anyone to change his mind, and never has any hope that Chen Ji can finally trust him, he directly uses this method to announce the breakdown of the relationship between himself and Chen Xu.

At the same time, Li Xinchen also used his achievements in Bashu to prove that he has the ability to break away from Chen Ji and base himself on this troubled world, and he is already the youngest and most ambitious and ambitious hero in the world!

Xiao Maha's expression became more and more solemn, and Chun Yu said thoughtfully: "Have you ever considered how to reply to Li Shizhong, and how to answer the imperial court?" ”

Xiao Maha smiled bitterly, this was what he was most worried about and worried about.

Li Xinchen doesn't need his explicit support now, but obviously he doesn't want Xiao Maha to contradict him at this time, if Xiao Maha expresses dissatisfaction with Li Xinchen's behavior, it is equivalent to pushing Li Xinchen and even his eldest son Xiao Shilian to the fire pit.

In addition, Xiao Maha also needs to give an answer to the imperial court, and Chen Maha definitely needs to consult Xiao Maha for the opinion of the hussar general, and Xiao Maha cannot be indifferent to this.

Even except for Xiao Maha, Chun Yuliang and Lu Guangda, the generals in Jingzhou had no way to stay out of the matter. After all, as the battles everywhere gradually came to an end, Wu Mingche had returned from the front line, and the Huainan army had also retreated to defend one after another, so the only remaining troops were left except for Li Xinchen, and only a few Xiao Maha remained.

They must express their stance to the imperial court, otherwise they will inevitably be classified into the same category of people as Li Xinchen at that time.

Li Xinchen has nothing to worry about in Nanchen, and he doesn't have any relatives and family members, but they can't suffer such undefeated grievances, otherwise the entire family will be affected.

Xiao Maha was silent for a long time before he whispered: "Shizhong's consideration, I think it's not unreasonable. This battle has been fought for a long time, Bashu has delayed the spring ploughing, and will inevitably face the danger of insufficient supply of grain and grass······

Chun Yuliang didn't speak in a hurry, he didn't have so much to do with Li Xinchen, and he couldn't even be regarded as a person from the East Palace in essence, so he needed to decide what he should do after knowing the judgment of others.

After all, Chun Yuliang, an outsider, at this time in the entire Jingzhou army, that is, in the Donggong group, if he wants not to be excluded and marginalized, the easiest way is to remain silent and support at a critical time.

For an old fox like Chun Yuliang, these calculations have even become their instinct, so now he is more inclined to know Xiao Maha's thoughts: "The general is saying that Li Shizhong also has his own difficulties in doing this?" ”

"Outside, the king's order is not subject to it, and Shizhong has already written his considerations in the battle report," Xiao Maha said in a low voice, "The old general puts himself in his shoes, and naturally knows the difficulties he is facing now. ”

Chun Yu Liang bowed slightly. Emperor Tiangao is far away, if he is in Bashu, when he encounters such a situation, I am afraid that he will not have time to ask Jiankang Mansion to make a judgment, and there is no problem with Li Xinchen's reason - although everyone knows that things are definitely not so simple.

Xiao Maha didn't say much, but Chun Yuliang already knew his answer.

Xiao Maha is actually prevaricating now, and he is also preparing to use this reason to prevaricate Chen Xu, because this is originally an ambiguous reason, "will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected", how many famous generals have died because of this sentence throughout the ages?

This is not a good reason in the first place, but compared to not saying anything and finally implicating himself, this is already the only choice that Xiao Maha can make with the many generals of the East Palace.

Xiao Maha secretly helped Li Xinchen, he was already under the pressure of Chen Xu, at this time Li Xinchen was already standing on the cusp, and Xiao Maha could not directly express his support for Li Xinchen regardless of it, so I am afraid that in Chen Xu, he will also become an out-and-out second minister thief, let alone defend Li Xinchen.

Li Xinchen stood on the cusp of the storm and was his trend-setter, but Xiao Maha was not qualified and brave enough to go in and out of the crests and troughs with him.

————————————————————

"It's General Wei Xiaokuan, who came?" Li Xinchen looked at the figures who walked up the stairs and solemnly bowed his hand.

Wei Xiaokuan had already seen this young opponent when he stood at the foot of the steps, and he could look more carefully at this time, Li Xinchen was younger than Wei Xiaokuan imagined, but although this young man was not wearing armor, he was still standing here with his waist straight, and the killing aura was full of eyebrows, and there was no cover at all.

Sharp.

This is Wei Xiaokuan's comment to Li Xinchen, and he is more and more vigilant about this young man who is much younger than himself. Li Xinchen is a very dangerous person, and more importantly, as soon as they met, Li Xinchen made Wei Xiaokuan a little nervous, and even his heart beat faster.

Wei Xiaokuan has been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, this feeling is not always there, and he is not even interested in dealing with some backward people on the battlefield, but this Li Xinchen in front of him has made him full of spirit.

It's like a porcupine encountering a dangerous enemy in the wild, and the thorns all over its body stand up. What's even more terrifying is that the previous battle of Langzhong made Wei Xiaokuan even have a feeling of powerlessness towards Li Xinchen, such an opponent really doesn't know if he can defeat it?

"General Li is young and talented, and when I see him today, he deserves his reputation." Wei Xiaokuan said with a smile, seemingly hesitating, but he solemnly returned the salute in the end.

Li Xinchen nodded with a slight smile and made a gesture of please, but this smile was not so kind in Wei Xiaokuan's eyes, the old general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty squinted, and looked Li Xinchen up and down vigilantly before stepping inside.

And Li Xun and Cao Xiaoda also followed Wei Xiaokuan.

The place of this negotiation is actually the big tent of the Chinese army in Changgu at the beginning, a map of Bashu is placed on the table, and the sand table carefully built by Li Xinchen and the craftsmen is placed next to the table, and the terrain of the entire Cangxi Valley can be seen at a glance on the sand table.

Wei Xiaokuan glanced at the sand table, most of the important places on the sand table were planted with red flags, and he didn't have to think about it to know that these all represented the key places that fell into Li Xinchen's hands.

Cao Xiaoda and Li Xun subconsciously glanced at each other, as commanders of the army, they also knew what this sand table represented, and it was not that similar things had not been used in the army, but what surprised them was the exquisiteness of this sand table, and they were even more surprised that Li Xinchen was able to grasp the terrain of the entire Cangxi Valley so clearly in such a short period of time.

What does this mean?

It shows that Li Xinchen has already eaten Cangxi Valley thoroughly, and their Northern Zhou army's understanding of Cangxi Valley is even limited to the map.
