Xu Maode was whipped in the face, and it hurt hotly, but he didn't dare to speak. The Martial Arts Mansion and the Riyang Mansion were lost in his hands, and the other party came to ask the emperor on behalf of him, so he could only bear it with grievances, and he dared not speak out.

He lost face in front of a group of men.

Xue Chong read out the holy decree loudly, and when he read it, Xu Maode seemed to be very careless, and Xue Chong looked at him with a disdainful expression.

Xu Maode held back the fire in his belly.

The holy decree is simple and clear, Xu Maode was demoted because of unfavorable command, the army of Long Xiguo changed generals, and the new general was Xue Chong.

Although Xu Maode was reluctant, he lost first, and he had nothing to argue with the content of the holy decree, so he swallowed his anger and accepted the decree.

"Your Majesty asked you to attack the Feng Ming Kingdom, and there are still our country's garrisons in the Feng Ming Kingdom, with such favorable conditions, you actually lost, and let the Martial Arts Mansion and the Riyang Mansion fall into the hands of that wild and small country, what a waste!" Although Xu Maode accepted the order without saying a word, Xue Chong was still angry, glared at Xu Maode, and counted the words hatefully.

Xu Maode was even hot at the top of his head, he hung his head, unable to speak.

Xue Chong snorted contemptuously, shook him off, and got on his horse and entered Liangcheng.

Xu Maode soon vacated the Observation Envoy's Mansion for Xue Chong to live in, and moved to the small mansion next to him to work.

However, from this day on, except for Xue Chong's initial order to hand over his duties, he was never called again, and he was allowed to shrink in the small mansion. Obviously, he was only demoted by one level and was not completely deprived of his military position, but Xu Maode had nothing to do, and he had nothing to do every day, so he could only watch Xue Chong mobilize the troops in the city.

Three days later, reinforcements arrived.

The main forces are really on the side of Cangqiu Country, and there are only 30,000 reinforcements to increase Huiqingling, Xu Maode's whole heart is cold, he can already foresee that if he is defeated, all the blame will be borne by him, even if Xue Chong does a bad job, he will not bear the responsibility for defeat, because the initial territory was lost in Xu Maode's hands, and the follow-up result became bad, even if he didn't do anything in the follow-up, it would become his responsibility in the end.

At that time, he was finished, and the Xu family would be affected by him, and it would be over......

Observe the Embassy.

After Chen Tian summarized the battle situation of the two armies, he reported all of them to Xue Chong.

Xue Chong frowned: "Isn't it Princess Chenguang who is leading the troops?" He resolutely refused to call her "Phoenix Lord", the emperor's daughter is a princess, what a phoenix master, ridiculous!

"The person who led the troops is King Xuan of the Phoenix Netherworld."

"Hmph, what Xuan Wang, isn't he just a male pet!" Xue Chong said disdainfully.

He was a little angry that Princess Chenguang did not personally lead the troops.

He hated the woman, and he hated it so much that he wanted to kill her. That woman made a mess of Long Xiguo, and made a mess of His Majesty, and Wanning ended up because of her. Now, the presence of Princess Chenguang will make him feel irritable, and he thinks that he will get rid of her to eliminate harm for the people and do the right thing for heaven.

Before coming this time, His Majesty just ordered him to lead the troops to repel the Feng Ming Kingdom in a light tone, and if the situation was good, according to the previous plan, set foot on the Feng Ming Kingdom. His Majesty did not order him to spare Princess Chenguang's life and bring Princess Chenguang back to Longxi Kingdom safe and sound, does this mean that His Majesty has completely died to Princess Chenguang He doesn't know, but he is very pleased with it. His Majesty did not give an order, and he could have removed that scourge from this world once and for all.

"Pass the order, attack the mountain tonight, explore the truth first, and then make plans."

"Yes." Chen Tian responded.

It's night.

The torches on Huiqing Ridge are bright.

After a few days of silence, the army of Long Xiguo suddenly launched an attack in the middle of the night.

Si Qian led the army to meet the battle.

The other party just came to explore the truth, not really to fight the winner, Si Qian was not too anxious for quick success, the two sides were deadlocked in the position under the mountainside, the lower ones could not go up, and the upper ones did not go down the mountain range.

Chang Xi did not participate in the battle, he stood on a high place, looked at the other party's generals from the firelight, and then laughed.

"It's really a 'wild boar'." This is the nickname given to Xue Chong by His Royal Highness in his letter.

When the lieutenants next to him heard the nickname "wild boar", they thought it was funny, and they couldn't hold back their laughter.

So this nickname spread among the Feng Ying Army, and from then on, when people in the Feng Ying Kingdom Army called General Xue Er of Long Xi Kingdom, they all used the title "Wild Mountain Boar" instead.

Xue Chong was furious when he learned about it, and for a while he hated it so much that he wanted to slaughter all the people of the Feng Ming Kingdom.

After a tentative battle between the two sides, the army of Long Xiguo retreated to Liangcheng again and closed its doors.

This is invisibly consuming the combat power of the Feng Netherworld army.

The army of Longxi Kingdom is not short of food and grass, Feng Ming Kingdom enters Long Xi Kingdom, the rear support line will be lengthened, and now it is winter, it is not easy to supply food and grass by long distances, besides, Feng Ming Kingdom has been plagued by disasters and difficulties for several years, and it is not as rich as Long Xi Country at all, they can only play a short line, as long as Long Xi Country consumes them, Feng Ming Kingdom will eventually destroy itself.

Xue Ling's temporary plan is to brake with static, so as to respond to all changes.

Although he has a short temper, this does not mean that he is weak, and he is still very calm in battle. Long Xiguo didn't know much about the army of the Feng Ming Kingdom, and he wanted to explore the strength of the other party's commander Si Qian while consuming the combat power of the Feng Ming Kingdom's army. He figured that Princess Chenguang would not send a waste, and although he hated her, he would not underestimate her. Underestimating the enemy is a taboo in soldiers, which he was told countless times when he first learned the art of war.

He's impatient, but he's not Xu Maode's idiot.

……

Feng Yingguo.

Phoenix Palace.

Chenguang knelt behind the phoenix case and drank the clear spring water from the back mountain, she liked to drink the spring water, cool, fresh and refreshing, clear and clean, and a touch of sweetness. With drops of water hanging from her lips, she curled her eyebrows and smiled.

"Your Highness, there's a letter from the front!" Siba ran in with his skirt and handed her the letter in his hand.

Chenguang put down the water glass, took it, and opened it to read.

It was written to her by Chang Xi.

Chang Xi talked about the battle situation in the letter, asked about her physical condition again, and said many times that he missed her very much, and said that the morning light was sour, she seemed to miss Xiao Xi, Xiao Qian and Xiao Jiu a little, she pursed her lips and thought, could it be that she is getting older and starting to be sentimental?

Si Ba smiled suddenly: "How old is Your Highness?" ”

Chenguang flattened her lips and laughed again, she picked up her glass of water and took small sips.

"Sure enough, it's a 'wild boar'." She said with a grin.

"Your Highness guessed right."

"It's not that I guess for sure, it's that apart from him, Long Xiguo can't send anyone else. Xiao Run, he is more suspicious than me, there are not many people to trust, Xue Ling is on the front line to fight the tail of Cangqiu Country, Mu Ye is behind him, their main battlefield is in Cangqiu Country, my side is just incidental, Xu Maode made him lose two mansions, he wants to send a cronie to change the general, and the person who came must be Xue Chong. ”
