In Moshui County, in the temporary commander's barracks, the atmosphere at this time was so solemn that it seemed to be able to wring out water. The generals around the sand table looked at each other and looked at the two generals led by them with complicated expressions, one of them was Wei Chimu, and the other was the grandson of the deceased General Pei Lao, Vice General Pei Xiu.

Since Wei Chimu led the 30,000 Red Armor Army all the way to Moshui County, curbing the pace of the northern invasion of the southern territory, several battles were fought, either the two were defeated or comparable, and the war fell into a stalemate. After Wei Xian, who was far away in Chaoge City, learned of this news, he promoted Pei Xiu to the deputy general and sent him to Wei Chimu's side.

originally thought that with the prestige of General Pei Lao, this Pei Xiu should also be a talented general, but who would have thought that this Pei Xiu not only knew nothing about arranging troops, but even had a stubborn temper sometimes. At present, the climate of Moshui is getting colder and colder, and most of the soldiers in the south may not be able to adapt to the harsh climate of northern Xinjiang, coupled with the recent small-scale harassment of the northern army has become more and more frequent.

But just when Wei Chimu had just finalized the battle plan, this Pei Xiu jumped out and resolutely opposed the plan.

"What you say does not constitute a reason not to send troops at all." Yu Chimu's voice seemed to be frozen with ice slag.

Pei Xiu's slightly delicate face showed a little disgust, and he sneered, "You also said before, this battle plan, the probability of success is less than thirty percent, which is equivalent to saying that only three out of ten people can survive, this is the best battle plan you can make?!" The man's voice raised slightly, "What the fuck is this bullshit battle plan to open the way with the lives of the soldiers?" ”

"Vice Admiral Pei!" Hearing this, a tall and sturdy general on the side finally couldn't listen to it, and said loudly, "Bloodshed and sacrifice on the battlefield is a common thing, and the more this situation is delayed, the more unfavorable it will be for us." ”

"That's right, the general will only make such a decision as a last resort."

"Alas...... It's getting colder and colder in northern Xinjiang. ”

Several generals on the side all said loudly, Pei Xiu didn't understand Wei Chimu's temper when he first came, but they did. He disagreed with him several times, and he was not inferior in front of everyone, if it weren't for the face of General Pei, I am afraid that Pei Xiu at this time would not have stood here to speak.

However, Pei Xiu didn't receive the affection of several generals, and when he heard their words, the ridicule on Pei Xiu's face was even better, "Oh? I heard that the prince of Murong had made great achievements in battle, and he should have seen a lot of situations that were more difficult than the current situation, and he dared to ask the prince, is it true that every time he encounters danger, the prince opens the way with the lives of the soldiers? Was the Red Armor Army originally an army of 100,000? ”

Hearing Pei Xiu's words, the generals were all silent. In the entire southern country, no one knows who doesn't know the prestige of the Murong family's Red Armor Army? In 325, the northern kingdom and the Xiqin kingdom successively sent troops to surround the southern kingdom, wanting to annex the southern kingdom, which was at a disadvantage at that time. Chi Hao, the king of Xinling, with only 30,000 Red Armor troops, tore through the encirclement of the two countries' coalition forces, and found reinforcements, fought for a whole month, and finally helped the southern country get out of the predicament, and the 30,000 Red Armor Army only lost less than 100 people. It was also that battle that completely spread the reputation of the Red Armor Army of the Wei Chi family.

However, there is also another rumor that the number of Red Armor troops at that time was far more than 30,000, but due to the rule of the prince system in the south, the size of the army with each prince should not exceed 30,000. So before that, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Red Armor Army ordered to send Huangquan.

This statement has only been circulating in people's mouths for a while, and no one knows whether it is true or not, and no one really dares to question King Xinling. But right now, as soon as Pei Xiu's words came out, it was not difficult for people to think of that rumor.

Sure enough, when Wei Chimu heard Pei Xiu's words, his face became more and more gloomy, "The north of Moshui is under the control of the Northern Army, and in the past few days, the number of skirmishes has risen to five per day, and on average, there are nearly 100 casualties in each battle. If it drags on any longer, this number will soar again in winter. So tell me what we should do now. ”

When Pei Xiu heard this, he glanced at the generals in the camp with disdain, "The Red Armor Army is different from our ordinary soldiers, so let the Red Armor Army take the lead, the general will lead the troops, and reenact the scene of the year." The Red Armor Army attracted most of the enemy's forces, and then we led the troops to outflank them from the rear. ”

"Huangkou Xiaoer, what you said is easy!" As soon as the words fell, a rough voice sounded, "Do you think the last battle is a game?" Do you know what kind of person Bei Ming Fei Ye is? We've tried this tactic before you're here, you know? The man paused, and then his voice mourned, "Not only did the front lose most of the troops, but the army outflanked from the rear was completely annihilated!" You're still talking nonsense here? Don't think that if you are the grandson of General Pei, you can do whatever you want in this barracks! To put it bluntly, we are giving face to the old general, otherwise, you would not have the qualifications to practice standing here! ”

"Old Wu, that's enough, don't say a word." A general standing next to the man hurriedly persuaded, "We now have the Red Armor Army, and the situation is different from before. ”

I wanted to comfort the general surnamed Wu, but I didn't want this sentence to make him even more angry, "Yes, the Red Armor Army is different from ordinary armies, so they have a more important mission, and this kid actually wants the Red Armor Army to die in vain?!" Okay, so why don't you go? ”

Hearing this, Pei Xiu sneered, "Because I'm afraid of death." Is it wrong to be afraid of death? ”

"What the!" The general surnamed Wu couldn't hold back anymore when he heard this, and wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by the people around him, "What qualifications do you have to stand here?" What qualifications are there to be called the grandson of General Pei? Phew! ”

"That's enough." At this moment, Wei Chi Mu finally spoke, his cold gaze passed over the corners of Pei Xiu's disdainful mouth, and he said lightly, "According to my understanding of the Northern Night, there will be a large-scale attack by the Northern Army in the past two days, and this plan will be put on hold for the time being." Cheng Chen. ”

"In!"

"Distribute the grain and grass in advance according to each person's portion, and reward the soldiers."

"Yes!"

"Wu Kui."

"In!"

"Inform the team, the team facing it can only lose, not win."

"Yes!"

…………

After issuing a series of orders, the soldiers all followed Wei Chimu's instructions, and left the camp in a hurry, leaving only Pei Xiuhao standing in place, playing with a chess piece at his fingertips.

"Alright. You can go back. Wei Chimu looked at Pei Xiu's side face, sighed lightly, and said slowly, "I won't agree to your request, let's die of this heart." ”

Hearing this, Pei Xiu's hand moved, and then raised his head, his face no longer had the mean appearance he had before, but instead of an incredible and incomprehensible, "Why?" You promised me ......"

"Pei Xiu!" Yu Chimu's voice was slightly cold, and even his eyes were sharp, "People can't be resurrected after death, even if you kill Beiming Feiye with your own hands, what can you do?" What's more, what kind of existence that person is, others know a little bit about it, don't you know? ”

Pei Xiu was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face gradually became hideous, "It's because I know that I want to kill that bastard with my own hands!" You can disagree with my proposal, but don't forget, I don't have to listen to your orders, after all, in the eyes of others, you and I are not compatible. He looked slightly, "There are some things that must be settled with your own hands." With that, he turned and walked away.

Looking at the man's disappearing back, Yu Chi Muliang sighed lightly for a long time.

Everyone thinks that Pei Xiu and his lieutenant Chi Mu disagree because he has great military exploits, has the Red Armor Army, and has everything that others can't have. But in fact, Pei Xiu was under the leadership of General Pei Lao when he was very young, and he corresponded with Wei Chimu.

At that time, Wei Chi Mu led the troops into battle at a young age, and returned triumphantly in the first battle, and everyone praised him as a talent. In the eyes of Pei Xiu, who advocates the powerful, it can be said that Wei Chimu is the object of his envy, and he is the hero in his heart.

The previous disagreements were all deliberately arranged by Wei Chimu, in order to hide people's eyes and ears. Pei Xiu is not only his subordinate, but also a relative-like existence in the eyes of Wei Chimu. So several times, Pei Xiu asked to go deep into the enemy's barracks, but Wei Chimu rejected it. General Pei is no longer there, and he can't let the only descendant of the Pei family go to death in vain because of hatred.

Thinking of this, Wei Chimu said slowly, "Pay attention to Pei Xiu's movements and report at any time." ”

"Yes!"

After Scarlet Smoke left the bamboo house of Mo Yan, he went all the way north, entered a small town, used the jewelry on his body as some silver taels, bought a horse and some dry food, and hurried on the road-

。 The horse galloped all the way north, passing by the inn, and the scarlet smoke did not stop, but found the tall trees nearby, and sat on the branches to rest for a while. When the dry food was almost finished, she went into the city to buy some more.

And on this day, when she received the change from the small trader, she suddenly heard a conversation from the side.

"Have you heard, there are traitors in King Xinling's army, and there are heavy losses after several battles!"

"Isn't it? I heard that the person was also injured, and I don't think this Moshui County is safe. ”

"Whew! What are you talking about, the Red Armor Army is the last protector of this country, how can it be possible to let the city fall, so can the southern country still stay? ”

"That's right, it looks like I'm going to consider going to another country."

…………

Listening to the conversation between the two of them word for word, Scarlet Smoke's heart was slightly cold, and then he was a little puzzled, would Wei Chi Mu really be betrayed by someone and lose the war as they said? Or are these all illusions, and Wei Chimu has other plans?

According to Scarlet Yan's understanding of Wei Chimu, the current situation is mostly the latter. However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and she can't be sure, so it's better to see it with her own eyes. Thinking of this, Scarlet Smoke reached out and brushed the horse's mane, then stepped on the stirrup, turned over on the horse, slightly clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and galloped away.
