In Brother Xiao Wei's big tent, Brother Xiao Wei's father and son were relatively speechless, Xiao Shangren's face was solemn, Brother Xiao Wei, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Shi's faces were gloomy, and Brother Xiao Wei's eyes were even more angry and looked at his eldest son. is even more angry.

"Venerable Master, go back! Haosheng guards Wuchuan, this is your responsibility, not to come to the army. Brother Xiao Wei finally turned into a long sigh and said: "When I finish solving Yan Zongbi, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely use me to guard the grassland, Boyan hehe, I'm afraid I can only go to the Western Regions, I have been fighting with him for so many years, this time I should be able to divide the victory and defeat." ”

"Yes! I don't know why His Majesty attaches importance to him, but he was born as a slave, when his father fought on the grassland, he was still a slave, and he was reused by His Majesty to get to where he is today, and he still wants to compete for power and profit with his father, which is really a joke. Xiao Shi said disdainfully.

"yes!" Xiao Yan also nodded, and said with a smile: "This time it's finally okay, as long as you defeat Wanyan Zongbi, the rest of the things will be much easier, Wanyan Zongbi is now powerless to fight back, father, the child thinks that we should also increase the offensive and solve Yan Zongbi as soon as possible, such a great achievement should be occupied by my Xiao clan, and when I return to the Jingshi, I will definitely be rewarded by His Majesty." ”

"Well, tell the soldiers that tomorrow to speed up the attack and fight Wanyan Zongbi as soon as possible, this is an excellent opportunity, and it must not be missed." Brother Xiao Wei touched his beard and said, "You all go down, and the Venerable Master stays." Xiao Yan and Xiao Shi glanced at each other, and hurriedly retreated, and there were two brothers Xiao Wei and Xiao Shangren father and son in the big tent.

"Venerable Master, do you think that your father is in a hurry for quick success?" Brother Xiao Wei looked at the army outside and said.

"Why didn't Father wait a moment? Even if you don't wait for Your Majesty to fight a decisive battle, you can wait for General Boyan's army to arrive. Xiao Shangren said with some incomprehension.

"In terms of battlefield experience, Boyan is not as good as me, but in terms of the ability to command operations, I am not as good as Boyan. At present, the imperial court is about to unify the world, if it is about military merits, Boyan is above me, and it is rumored that His Majesty is ready to divide the feud, not only the prince, but also me. This is an opportunity. Brother Xiao Wei said in a low voice: "The reason why you and I are noble is because of Your Majesty, and more importantly, Your Majesty's country is too big, is the person who inherits Your Majesty's country in the future an ordinary person?" Your Majesty has many heirs, and now there are more than a dozen, and you know what that means! ”

"But, father, does it have anything to do with us?" Master Xiao said hesitantly.

"My Yelu family has a princess by His Majesty's side." Brother Xiao Wei said with a smile: "Actually, it's not just us who fight this Boyan, but also those Han people who fight this idea, who doesn't want their descendants to be able to divide more." Otherwise, why do you think we are so attentive, but we just want to help the people behind us to wait for the throne. ”

"Your Majesty is young and strong, I'm afraid it's still early!" Master Xiao frowned for a moment and said, "And who Your Majesty wants to crown as the crown prince is Your Majesty's business, and Erchen doesn't think that Your Majesty will be influenced by us." "What kind of character is Li Jing, how could he be influenced by his courtiers and change his heir.

"You don't understand it! Let's go back! It is located in Wuchuan. Brother Xiao Wei glanced at his eldest son, it was okay to keep it, but it was impossible to forge ahead, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had been attracted by the division, and his eldest son didn't know this, he waved his hand and said, "Go back!" You don't have to worry about the rest. ”

"Yes." Xiao Shangren was disappointed for a while, but he still saluted Brother Xiao Wei, led his own soldiers and horses, and left overnight.

He was in a very frustrated mood, and he didn't persuade Brother Xiao Wei's army to stop pursuing, even if he knew that there was a trap ahead, he couldn't stop the fact that more than 100,000 troops were defeated, and in the end he could only leave gloomily.

Hundreds of war horses galloped on the grassland, Xiao Shangren left Xiao Weige's camp with a gloomy mood, and galloped westward for only a day, when it was dark, the soldiers around him prepared some dry food, and guarded Xiao Shangren in the middle, a soldier took out a water bag from his arms and handed it to Xiao Shangren, Xiao Shangren took a sip, but sighed, what will be the next step, Xiao Shangren should think carefully.

"Major General, there is a large group of men and horses in front of you. It's a golden man. At this time, two pro-soldiers came from a distance, and whispered: "The other party's brigade is only three miles away from us, fortunately we run fast, but it is also fast, how to do it." ”

"Golden Man!" Master Xiao stood up suddenly, his face pale, there was really something wrong here, now that the enemy had been killed, he didn't have much time to give himself.

"You immediately go to the camp to report to the general, I will personally go back to Jiutaitan, the Jin people have been killed, and after defeating my father in the next step, it will be Jiutaitan and Wuchuan." With tears in his eyes, Master Xiao recruited a personal soldier and said, "How many people can be saved by the 100,000 army depends on the will of heaven." I can't go, Wuchuan still needs me, the army is pressing, the entire grassland will be bloody, I need to move the herdsmen with General Chen, leave seeds for the Tang Dynasty, and then I will go to Beijing to ask for guilt, I Xiao is a sinner of the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Shangren's face was gloomy, he knew that Brother Xiao Wei had no power to return to heaven, and he had been away from Brother Xiao Wei for a day, even if Pegasus rushed over, Brother Xiao Wei might have been ambushed, even if he went by himself, he couldn't change anything, the only thing that could change was Wuchuan, that is, Jiutai Beach. Although Xiang Dong is his father and younger brother for a day, but Xiao Shangren is thinking about the Tang Dynasty at the moment, after this battle, the Xiao family is very responsible, even if Xiao Wei survives, he will definitely die, it is better to leave a useful body, leaving a glimmer of life for the Xiao family. This is the path that Xiao Shangren had to choose.

"Yes." The soldiers also knew that they were going to inform Brother Xiao Wei, and they were certain to die, but they still received the order.

"Let's go, let's get out of here at once." After Xiao Shangren and his soldiers left, he hurriedly turned over his horse and headed south, he had to detour to Jiutai Beach from the south first.

However, after tea time, Wan Yan Yu lazy personally led the army to the place where Xiao Shangren was resting, found the traces around him, and immediately knew that he had been exposed, but he did not think that the enemy would make a detour from the south to return to Jiutaitan, but thought that it was Xiao Weige's sentry, and immediately ordered the left and right to continue the march. Now that it has been exposed, it can only attack Brother Xiao Wei as much as possible.

Planning is in the people, Xiao Wei is undoubtedly defeated, now it depends on how many armies can be eliminated, even if he can escape some, it is useless in the face of the general trend, this battle, the Jin people have already won.
