There is one thing that Xue Shao and Cheng Wuting both know in their hearts, political disputes, even including the battle for the throne of Jiangshan, there is actually no absolute distinction between justice and evil. Only after the winner is decided, the victor who has taken the right to speak will certainly trumpet his own righteousness and criticize the other party as evil.

History has always been written by the victors.

In the present, Li Chongyi's family is absolutely loyal to Emperor Li Zhi, and Xue Shao and Cheng Wuting, whether active or passive, have bet their political investment on the queen of heaven.

In fact, between the two sides, there is no right or wrong, only differences in interests and positions.

It's just that this time, in order to hit Cheng Wuting's power, Li Chongyi sacrificed the lives of more than 10,000 soldiers of the Shuofang Army, and he definitely violated the bottom line in this matter. Not to mention that Cheng Wuting can't bear it, Xue Shao can't see it, even if Emperor Li Zhi himself knows the truth of the matter, he will spare him Li Chongyi!

Compared with the political dispute between Li Chongyi and Cheng Wuting, the battle between Xue Shao and Li Xiantong seems a bit pediatric. On the question of whether to send troops to rescue Shuozhou and when to send troops to rescue Shuozhou, Li Xiantong has no decision-making power. All he wanted to do was to use the handle of that group of deserters to pretend to be confused and deal with the "house slave" who "pretended" Xue Shao.

It's just a coincidence that Xue Shao came to Shuozhou to stay with Cheng Wuting, and the two belonged to the same camp, and Li Xiantong was Li Chongyi's grandson.

In this way, it seems as if the two things become one.

Now that Li Xiantong has come to "save" Shuozhou with his soldiers, how to deal with the next possible changes, Xue Shao still has to discuss with Cheng Wuting.

"This revenge will not be avenged, not a gentleman!" Cheng Wuting thought of those brothers who died in battle, and gritted his teeth with hatred, his eyes were red, "But I thought that it was still necessary to focus on military affairs." At present, the danger of Shuozhou has just been alleviated, and the threat of the Turks is always there. In case they come back to a crazy counterattack, Shuozhou will definitely not be able to hold it if it does not rely on the assistance of the state's troops. So I think that since Li Xiantong has brought the troops, he should only be regarded as a support army and our robe. As for the other accounts, they will be liquidated in the future - Xue Gongzi, what do you think? ”

"Just what I want." Xue Shao said, "In fact, when I was still in the annexation of the state, I had already noticed some clues. In order not to destroy the overall situation of the Northern Expedition, I held back. I sent the men of the 3rd Brigade to the field and Shuozhou to practice, and I also had the intention of avoiding a head-on conflict with Li Xiantong. Unexpectedly, he was very anxious, and refused to let me go when he caught a little opportunity. ”

Cheng Wuting frowned, "Even Li Duozuo has been arrested, it seems that they are indeed conclusive evidence." The last time Li Xiantong came, if you were still in Shuozhou, I was really worried that you would be arrested by him according to the law. Now that he's here again, how are you going to deal with it? ”

Xue Shao smiled.

"The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth. Evil general, don't worry. Xue Shao smiled unhurriedly, "When I was in Zuo Fengchenwei, Li Xiantong and I actually didn't have a deep hatred, but because of some differences in positions and interests, there were some fights. It's just that Li Xiantong lost a little too badly that time, and he worked in Zuo Fengchen for ten years, and suddenly there was no place to stand overnight. The East Palace took him in, but he was not very happy to stay in the East Palace to survive. He knew that I had gone to Bingzhou as a pawn, so he asked to be transferred to the Metropolitan Governor's Office and became a subordinate of his grandfather Li Chongyi. Bingzhou is his family's territory, and this is probably his best chance to take revenge! ”

"Hey, people in officialdom always want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop." Cheng Wuting sighed, "Who did my old Cheng recruit to provoke whom?" Li Chongyi, I have no grievances with him and no enmity in the past, just because he is afraid that my military achievements are too great, and he is afraid that I will pose a threat to his son Li Chongdan after I return to the dynasty, so he will treat me like this! More than 10,000 brothers died unjustly because of this! I'm a big sinner, I'm sorry brothers! ”

"Forget it, no need to say it." Xue Shao said, "I think it is imperative that we still stabilize the border defense and wait for Marshal Pei's main army to arrive." After Li Xiantong came, he should still greet him with a smile and treat him well. At this point, General Evil must convince your strong-tempered subordinates. Don't spoil militaristic affairs because of momentary anger! ”

"Okay, they're fine!" Cheng Wuting agreed very simply, "As long as I say a word, they will not say a word about going up and down the knife mountain, and they will definitely not cause trouble because of impulse at this critical time!" ”

"That's good." Xue Shao nodded, "As for my question, General Evil doesn't have to worry about it. Li Xiantong's little conspiracy and Xiaoyang conspiracy can't help me. If I hadn't prepared for a hand or two, I wouldn't have had the courage to come to the rescue of those deserters. Since he used this as a lever to hit me, I will give him a good push. Who's hand after the deer dies at the most, wait and see! ”

Cheng Wuting snapped his eyes several times, expressing his confusion, "This ...... The marching commander Shi was in charge of all the laws and punishments in the army, and even Li Duozuo was detained and imprisoned. Xue Gongzi, please forgive Cheng for being presumptuous, how will you deal with this turmoil? ”

"Mountain people have their own tricks." Xue Shao smiled, "It's not that I don't believe in the general, it's just that some things are not easy to say before they are revealed." Please let me sell it once! ”

"Okay, then Cheng won't ask more." Cheng Wuting hugged his fist, "In any case, this battle of Shuozhou is thanks to Xue Gongzi's help." Otherwise, Cheng Wuting will be the culprit of defeat! Da En is not grateful, in the future, Xue Gongzi will have a place where I can be successful, just speak! ”

"General Evil, it's serious!" Xue Shao returned the salute with a smile, "You and I are both martial artists of the Tang Dynasty, and we already have the same hatred for the enemy. From now on, we will be in the same boat! ”

"Ha Luha, Xue Gongzi is worthy of being a child of a big family from a scholarly family, this is very pertinent, just what I want!" Cheng Wuting hugged his fists and bowed again, "Then - help each other in the same boat!" ”

Later, Xue Shao and Cheng Wuting came to the place where the prisoners were held, in the backyard of the marching governor's mansion.

In charge of guarding the four Turkic captives were General An Da, the "national idol" of Shuozhou, and the guards of the Three Swords Brigade.

Xue Shao and Cheng Wu went to the backyard, and heard Yue Nu and the female prisoner arguing from afar.

"What's the matter, General Ben changed back into the Datang daughter's outfit, do you dare to call me an ugly monster?" The Moon Slave's voice was full of pride.

"It's ugly! Ugly! The female prisoner was very disdainful, "You don't look in the mirror to see your honor first, your face is smeared like a monkey's buttocks, so many flowers are messily pasted on your face, like a few pieces of sheep feces, it's really ugly!" Also, your lips are too scary, bloody mouthful? ”

"I slammed your mouth!"

"Come on, if you have the ability to let me go, I'll fight you!"

Xue Shao and Cheng Wuting laughed secretly when they heard it, sure enough, it was difficult for one mountain to accommodate two tigers, not to mention the two tigresses from opposite mountains!

"Moon slave, stop!" Xue Shao walked in and stopped.

The moon slave walked out of the room where the female slave was held angrily, and Xue Shao was startled on the spot!

"How did you become like this!!"

Yuenu has always only worn men's clothes, and I don't know where she found a set of waist-length skirts that Princess Taiping is used to wearing today, her plump breasts are half exposed, and she is snow-white and turbulent, and her figure is indeed nothing to say. But General An, who has always been plain and does not apply any rouge and gouache, actually painted a face of Tang lady makeup today. The two lips alone were painted like vampires, and the flowers were ugly, and the eyeliner was drawn crookedly, thickly, and exaggeratedly.

I really don't blame the female prisoner for scolding harshly, the moon slave's makeup is indeed a little miserable. If this is encountered in the middle of the night, it can really scare people's souls away!

Hearing Xue Shao's reprimand, the moon slave hurriedly covered his face with his hands and fled.

"I, I'm going to wash my face, I'm going to change my clothes!"

Cheng Wuting and the guards of the Three Knife Brigade next to him let out a dry cough, and they were about to hold back their internal injuries when they held back their laughter.

Xue Shao sighed with tears and laughter, "This guy is getting more and more nonsense!" ”

"If you want me to say, General An is really a lovely and good girl, very upright and cheerful, more like a man than many men, just like the big men in our army!"

Xue Shao was speechless, "General Evil, are you praising or scolding?" ”

"Praise, praise it!" Cheng Wuting said with a smile, "There are tens of millions of women in the Tang Dynasty, and there is only one General An who can have the same smell as us military warriors, which is definitely a rare treasure!" ”

"I think it's a living treasure!"

While talking and laughing, the two walked into the room where the middle-aged male captive in noble clothes was held, and Xue Shao sent Guo An and three other capable guards to watch over him day and night.

When the middle-aged male prisoner saw Xue Shao and Cheng Wuting coming in, he just sat there indifferently, slow and unhurried.

"Have you been tried?" Cheng Wuting glanced at him and asked.

"I've asked a few times along the way, but they haven't said anything." Xue Shao said, "But it doesn't matter, they don't say it themselves, there will be others who tell us their true identity." ”

Cheng Wuting blinked, "You mean, when Marshal Pei arrives, let Marshal Pei find a way to make them speak?" ”

"Don't wait that long." Xue Shao said with a smile, "If these people are really important, the Turks will naturally send envoys to negotiate the terms of exchanging prisoners." If these people are not important at all, then it doesn't matter whether they are tried or not. ”

"It makes sense, the brain of a reader is the light!" Cheng Wuting's eyes lit up, "If these people weren't important, I guess the Turks wouldn't have retreated so hastily." ”

Hearing this, the middle-aged male prisoner in the room, who had been pretending to be very calm, suddenly turned his head and looked shocked, "The mastermind has really withdrawn?!" ”

"Ho, so you're not dumb?" Guo An, who was in charge of guarding him, said with a smile, "This Chinese language is quite smooth!" ”

Xue Shao and Cheng Wuting smiled knowingly, this guy is definitely an important person in the Turkic tooth tent, otherwise, he would not make such an expression when he heard the "military affairs".

Cheng Wuting gave Xue Shao a look, and the two exited the room, Cheng Wuting said, "Ashdwin Fu also called himself Khan before joining forces with Ashina Funian. After the army, Fu Nian was the Great Khan, and Wen Fu was the Little Khan and the master of the army. This guy just blurted out in a hurry to call Ashdwin Fu 'mastermind', instead of calling him 'Khan' like the vast majority of Turkic rebels, which proves that this guy's status may not be much lower than Ashdwin's! - It seems that you have gained a lot this time! ”

Xue Shao smiled indifferently and said, "Actually, I've always felt that among these four people, the one with the least status is precisely this guy just now!" ”

"What?" Cheng Wuting was taken aback.
