Because it was too dangerous to travel at night, Sima An decided to wait until the next day.

So the next day, he ordered someone to summon Wen Xu and Bai Fangming, two generals, only to find out that Bai Fangming, who went with him to see Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, last night, did not return overnight.

"That guy...... It can't be that the mouth is revealing something, is it?'

Sima An frowned and thought.

He didn't like others to talk about him, but he didn't have any resistance to Bai Fangming staying with Zhao Hongrun's group.

“…… In other words, a certain general will return to Daliang, and you and Bai Fangming will replace this general and listen to it under the command of His Royal Highness King Su. ”

Sima An told the general of the decision he made last night.

"Obey the orders of His Royal Highness King Su?" Wen Xu frowned, revealing a reluctant look.

Immediately, he whispered: "Actually, the general doesn't have to be like this. …… The last general didn't believe it, that His Highness really dared to lead the merchant army to conquer my Dangshan army. ”

"......" Sima An glanced at Wen Xu when he heard this, and said calmly: "Do you mean, don't you dare to bet on His Royal Highness King Su?" But what if he really 'dares'? There are more than 12,000 people in the Dangshan army, what will be the outcome? Is it to tacitly rebel and meet the merchant army, or to obediently obey and poke the neck? ”

"This ...... No way? Wen Xu had a look of "I don't believe he would do this."

Seeing this, Sima An shook his head, and the calm look on Zhao Hongrun's face yesterday when he said the sentence "There is no need for the army to exist if you do not obey the order" came to mind.

"With that attitude, a word determines the fate of more than 10,000 people...... It's really not like the courage of a prince to have...... It's incredible.'

Shaking his head with emotion, Sima An told Wen to continue: "This matter is so decided. …… By the way, Wen continued, after a certain left the barracks. The Dangshan Army will be handed over to you. White has a frivolous and uninhibited temperament, and he really does not feel at ease entrusting him. ”

"Does the general have to leave?"

"......" Sima An was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I don't agree with His Royal Highness King Su. …… The so-called two tigers must have an injury when they fight, and you have also seen the character of His Royal Highness King Su, which seems to be gentle, but his character is quite tough and strong. There was a pause. He said with a little melancholy: "He is His Royal Highness the Prince, and he is His Majesty's most important prince now, so he is deeply favored by the emperor, how can it really be unfavorable to him?" I was the only one who gave in. …… But don't worry, as long as someone takes the initiative to back down, His Royal Highness King Su will take back the so-called ten-day period. ”

"That doesn't matter." Wen Xu frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "In fact, the general doesn't have to be so low-voiced, that highness is not ashamed of my Dangshan army, and my Dangshan army will return to Chenggao Pass with the general." Let him ...... the merchant army"

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Sima An's eyes that suddenly became cold and terrifying.

Shocked in his heart, Wen Xu hurriedly bowed his head and confessed: "It's the last general who lost his word." ”

"......" Sima An stared coldly at Wen Xu for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Assist His Royal Highness King Su in the conquest of the Qian people, this is the order of this general, understand?" ”

"Yes! The end will understand. Wen Xu secretly swallowed his saliva and replied.

At that moment the tabernacle was lifted. Bai Fangming, another general of the Dangshan Army, walked in and said unabashedly, "Yo." The general hasn't set off yet, huh? ”

"......" Sima An rolled his eyes, didn't bother to pay attention to this guy who was a fool, picked up the package that had already been packed on the bed and was about to leave the barracks, but he didn't want Bai Fangming to grab the package.

"What do you do?"

Sima An's eyes revealed a message.

I saw Bai Fangming grinning and said, "Don't be busy leaving, general, there is someone who wants to see the general." ”

"There's one person?"

Sima An subconsciously looked at the tent. Only then did I find out that Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, also came to the tent at some point.

Probably came in after Bai Fangming.

"His Royal Highness King Su?"

Sima An hugged his fists, then glanced at Bai Fangming suspiciously, squinted his eyes and said in a low voice: "You didn't say anything that shouldn't be said, right?" ”

Probably sensing the threatening tone in Sima An's words, Bai Fangming shouted "wow". dragged Sima An's burden and escaped from the tent.

Before leaving, he also dragged away Wen Xu, who was a little confused, so that Zhao Hongrun and Sima An were left in the tent.

In a moment of silence, Sima An looked at Zhao Hongrun without saying a word.

After half a ring, he smacked his lips and said with some unhappiness: "It seems that Bai Fangming's bastard thing has already revealed to His Royal Highness King Su the reason why he doesn't trust people from foreign races." ”

Zhao Hongrun smiled when he heard this, and said: "General Bai Fangming is a general who trusts and is loyal to the general, why call it a 'bastard thing'." ”

Hearing this, Sima An was even more sure of the guess in his heart, and after slowly exhaling a sigh, he asked Zhao Hongrun about his intention.

"I just wanted to talk to the general."

Zhao Hongrun paced a few steps in the tent, looking around at this simple handsome tent.

Yesterday, because of distractions, I didn't carefully look at the marshal tent of the Dangshan Army, but now after a closer look, Zhao Hongrun found that this so-called marshal tent is really simple enough, and there is only a chair as a façade, a desk, and a bed made of hay.

Bent down and wiped the table with his fingers, and when he felt some dirt, Zhao Hongrun frowned and rubbed his fingers. At the same time, he said: "Does the general know the reason why my father appointed this king as the commander-in-chief?" ”

Hearing this, Sima An looked at Zhao Hongrun with a strange expression, and said, "Your Majesty is extremely important to Your Highness, and you want to use this to hone Your Highness, right?" ”

Hearing this answer, Zhao Hongrun understood why Sima An had such a strange expression on his face, after all, this matter sounded like he Zhao Hongrun was selling himself and boasting, emphasizing his position in Wei Tianzi's heart.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The general completely misunderstood. …… My father appointed this king as the commander-in-chief, just to see if this king can 'make good use' of you, General Sima. ”

"Make good use of it?" Sima An felt that the word was a little awkward.

"Well, my father's original word was 'control', but this king thinks it's better to 'make good use of it'." Zhao Hongrun scratched his face and said with a smile.

"Harness?"

Sima An's expression was correct when he heard this, he was not as unhappy as Zhao Hongrun had scruples. I was just surprised.

"Is Your Majesty's weight on His Royal Highness the King of Su far more important than I guessed? …… But hasn't this highness already given up fighting for the throne? Although it is not necessary to sit in that position to be in charge of the sixth battalion garrison, it always feels a little wrong...... Well, no, if it's really "harnessing"...... Is it Your Majesty?'

"......" Sima An stared at Zhao Hongrun with a strange expression. A few strange looks appeared on his face, fleeting.

It's a pity that Zhao Hongrun didn't notice the strange look on Sima An's face, and still said to himself: "If you really let the general return to Daliang alone, it means that the homework that my father gave to this king has failed, so this king wants to try again and convince the general." ”

"How does Your Highness plan to convince the last general?" Sima An showed a rare inexplicable smile on his face, looked at Zhao Hongrun and said, "Your Highness is talented." But if you tell the inside story of this matter, aren't you afraid that you will use it as a basis? ”

"This king just thinks that since he wants to convince the general, he naturally has to be honest." Zhao Hongrun Zhengse said.

"Huh!" Sima An nodded with a rare smile and said, "His Highness's honesty is deeply honored, but His Highness's proposition is not in line with that of a certain person. His Royal Highness also conquered the state of Chu together with the Junshui army of Bailiba. It should be known that "there cannot be two voices in one army." His Highness cannot accept the proposition of so-and-so, and so-and-so cannot accept the proposition of His Highness, so one must back down. …… Is Your Highness willing to back down? ”

"Can't it be the general who retreats?" Zhao Hongrun said with some unhappiness.

Sima An smiled when he heard this, and said with an indifferent attitude: "Didn't you give in?" …… The tiger talisman of the Dangshan Army is already in the hands of His Royal Highness. ”

"That's really ...... A complete concession. ”

Zhao Hongrun looked at Sima An a little speechlessly. Immediately, his expression changed, he shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "But it doesn't matter, this king can still make the general voluntarily stay and voluntarily use the countermeasures used by this king." ”

"Oh?" Sima An's eyes showed a hint of discoloration, and he said in an unpredictable tone: "A certain ear is listening. ”

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "Maybe." The general saw that the king was close to the Qingyang tribe of the Qiang tribe, and accused the Dangshan army of slaughtering innocent residents in the land of Sanchuan, so he felt that the king's proposition was inconsistent with the general. But in fact, the propositions of this king and the general are quite consistent on a certain matter. ”

"I want to hear about it." A hint of interest flashed in Sima An's eyes.

"That's it, the Karma people, especially the Karma tribe." Slowly putting away the smile on his face, Zhao Hongrun said coldly: "In the hunting a while ago, the people of the Qiang tribe ignored the kindness that my Great Wei took the initiative to deliver, and refused to send an envoy to negotiate with my Great Wei, and the only one who went was the Qiangjiao tribe...... However, the patriarch of the Qiangjiao tribe, Bitatu, frequently provoked the officials of the Ministry of Rites of the Great Wei during the discussion, and his tone was arrogant and arrogant, and the king heard that I was too polite to Sanchuan in the past ten years, so that those arrogant Qiang people gradually stopped taking my Great Wei in their eyes, in this case, I might as well use this battle to teach those arrogant and arrogant Qiang people a good lesson, as a warning to the people of Sanchuan! …… I don't know if General Sima is interested in helping this king to eradicate these enemies of my Great Wei? ”

Sima An's eyes flashed a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't rush to make a statement, but asked, "What kind of lesson?" ”

I saw that Zhao Hongrun completely restrained the smile on his face, and said coldly: "A lesson imprinted into the bone marrow!" It is better than my Wei people to remember the "battle of the party"...... What's more! ”

Looking at Zhao Hongrun, whose eyes were full of murderous eyes, Sima An couldn't help but be a little surprised, he really didn't expect that when he said this, it would be His Royal Highness King Su who was still accusing him of slaughtering the people of Sanchuan yesterday.

"Use the people of the Qiang tribe to give the Yin Rong of Sanchuan a profound lesson imprinted into the bone marrow...... What?'

Sima An's expression was a little subtle, after all, the "bait" cast by His Royal Highness King Su in front of him at this moment made him a little shaken by his purpose of 'killing all foreign clans that might pose a threat to Great Wei'.

"Sima An, this king wants the Qiangjiao tribe, and it no longer exists!"

“…… Be! Some, I am willing to be driven by His Highness! (To be continued.) )
