The muscles on Shan Xiongxin's face jumped, he raised his head, and tears flashed in his eyes: "Lord, I, I, my heart is a little panicked today." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Xiongxin, don't say anything, I know in my heart, follow me, you and Jin Cheng, Gongqing, Hei Min, these brothers, suffered, you are a martial artist, you could have made a name for yourself in the Sui army, but you followed me and embarked on this road, you can't get ahead, you can't be famous, it's me Wang Shichong who dragged you down and didn't give you a good future, I can only say, I'm sorry, brother." ”

Shan Xiongxin's eyes were full of tears, and he said: "Lord, when our brothers were nameless, you took us in, this kindness, Xiongxin will never forget it for the rest of his life, but, only this time Xiongxin is really unconvinced, that Fei Qingnu, the lord has been giving him all kinds of opportunities to show off since he saw him, he is now the same as us, he is the lord's person, why give him a good opportunity to capture the flag, but can't give us some?" This is something that Xiongxin can't figure out! ”

Wang Shichong sighed softly: "Xiongxin, I am reluctant to you, so I have been hiding you, you also know, what do I Wang Shichong want to do, you are an old brother who has been with me for more than ten years, I can entrust you with my life, of course, I am reluctant to let you leave me, so, please forgive me for my selfishness, I did not give you a chance to make a contribution." ”

Shan Xiongxin's eyes widened: "Then Fei Qingnu has already followed the lord, why did the lord give him such an opportunity?" ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "Fei Qingnu is different, he was not my person at the beginning, and he has always followed Mai Tiecane. It was the general of the Sui army. Now it has been done. The reputation of courage is also spread throughout the three armies, so I want to pull him over, so as not to let other generals go, only by giving him benefits and giving him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, only if he has military merits along the way and can be promoted, can he be dead set on me. Because, what I give him, others can't give, only in this way will he be my person. ”

Shan Xiongxin shook his head dissatisfiedly: "But in this way, the one who loyally follows the lord has no chance, but he, a newcomer, can make such a great contribution and make such a big show, even I am not convinced, let alone other brothers." My lord, I am afraid that you will chill the hearts of the old brothers. ”

Wang Shichong sneered: "Limelight? What limelight can you make in Goguryeo? Xiongxin. Have you forgotten what we are going to do? ”

Shan Xiongxin's face changed, and he looked around vigilantly, the sea breeze was blowing, only the sound of the wind passing through the grass, and there was no sound of anyone, no matter when, he was a competent enough guard and bodyguard, even if he was dissatisfied, and drank too much wine, it would not change.

Shan Xiongxin was still not at ease, walked around, and swept in the grass with a black lance for a while, this time he confirmed that there would be no one to hide, so he relieved his heart, returned to Wang Shichong's side, and said: "The great ambition of the lord is not forgotten in the next day, the lord is the true son of the dragon, and we are the ministers of the dragon who support you to take the throne of God." ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "Actually, I have told you many times, you are also a smart person, very clear, the Sui room is exhausted, along the way, we came from Hebei and Shandong, hungry people everywhere, there are bandits and thieves everywhere, but Yang Guang is still for his face, supporting the million-strong army to fight outside, if this continues, it will not take a year, his country will be full of wolves, not to mention that he can't defeat Goguryeo, even if he is destroyed in a war, he can only be forced to return to the army, even the country is gone, what is the point of this military exploit? ”

Shan Xiongxin gritted his teeth: "But our brothers follow the lord to do great things, and they also want to be rich and glorious, and return to their hometown in the future, this time to fight Goguryeo, if there is a chance to kill their generals, of course, they can leave their names in history, with such an opportunity, who doesn't want to fight for it?" Lord, Xiongxin is willing to fight against that Gao Jian alone, and he has no regrets even if he dies. ”

Wang Shichong's eyes flashed green, and he said: "Xiongxin, you ask yourself if you fight head-to-head with this Gao Jian, what is the chance of winning a one-on-one battle?" ”

Shan Xiongxin shook his head: "Less than twenty percent." This man's martial arts and strength, Yushin has seen with his own eyes, and to be honest, unless a miracle happens, I am no match for him. ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "I know that I can't beat it, why do I want to send it to death?" If you give your life here, how will future generations know that you Shan Xiongxin once had? Just like the more than ten Sui generals who killed Gao Jian, who would record their names? ”

The corners of Shan Xiongxin's mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a while.

Wang Shichong sighed, and his tone softened: "Xiongxin, you are my most trusted general, although Jin Cheng came earlier than you, but he is irritable and impulsive, so I sent him to Hebei to start an incident, and let you stay by your side, that is, I have high hopes for you, if I want to start an incident in the future, you are my number one general, everything needs to be counted on you, in the future, I hope that in the history books, Shan Xiongxin can become a general like Guan Yu, record in the annals of history, instead of just becoming a Sui general who fought against Gao Jian, the prince of Goguryeo, Do you understand? ”

A hint of excitement flashed in Shan Xiongxin's eyes: "Lord, lord, do you really think of Xiongxin like this?" ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Although Fei Qingnu is a brave general, but I didn't train it at the beginning, to be honest, I'm very happy that he came to help me, but there is really no such person, and there is not much regret, he is now an official Sui general, and he has been accustomed to the evaluation system according to military merit for decades, so I can only give him more opportunities to show his face now, but when the world is in chaos in the future, will you still be afraid that there will be no chance?" ”

Shan Xiong Nobu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Lord, if you had told me this earlier, I wouldn't have these strange thoughts, now Xiongxin fully understands the lord's intentions, and he won't be in trouble anymore, if I have time, I will also help the lord to solve the other brothers, please rest assured." ”

Speaking of this, Shan Xiongxin hooked the corners of his mouth: "My lord, your Goguryeo expedition originally said that you were going to pull the Sui army back, but now I think you seem to be going all out to help the Sui army win, why is this?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Well, it's because I found that after the Sui army won, the main force still can't return to China, and it is better to stay in Goguryeo to quell the rebellion and maintain stability, than to suppress the domestic rebellion after the army returns after the defeat. Besides, after all, you and I are the Central Plains of the Celestial Empire, and we still want to win in our bones when we fight this alien barbarian state, right? (To be continued......)
