Volume XX, Chapter 3

"Say it again!" Wang Zhuo crossed the table and grabbed Ying Xue's collar, the middle-aged man in front of him brought him too many surprises, there were too many things that people knew, Wang Zhuo was thinking about killing Ying Xue, so as not to leak the news, but Ying Xue's last sentence made Wang Zhuo feel so surprised that Wang Zhuo was so excited that he grabbed Ying Xue's collar and said impatiently.

"Don't get excited, General Wang. Yingxue said, pointing to her clothes.

"Oh, please tell me more about General Yingxue's situation. Wang Zhuo realized his gaffe at this time, but his excitement still did not calm down, and he still asked nervously.

"It turns out that I didn't look at the wrong person, you have been waiting for the return of Eagle Snow, you have worked hard these days, please accept my worship. Ying Xue bowed deeply to Wang Zhuo.

"Who the hell are you?" Wang Zhuo was completely confused by Ying Xue's actions.

"Hehe, General Wang has been gone for a long time, I'm Yingxue. "Eagle Snow withdrew the anomaly and returned to its original form.

"General, it's really you. Wang Zhuo still couldn't believe what was happening in front of him, he really couldn't believe that Ying Xue would come to him in this way, and he didn't know whether Ying Xue in front of him was true or false, Ying Xue handed over so many people to him, he didn't dare to be careless, so he asked in disbelief.

"Brother Wang, please take this token, don't show it lightly until you have to, the matter of this place is completely left to you, I know that you are a general, and you are very familiar with the situation in this place. Only you can quell the rebellion here, and we are now largely victorious. So we just need to spend it like this with Gao Yuanhao, and we don't have to attack. Just be defensive, and if there's a temporary crisis, it's up to you to improvise. Yingxue said quietly.

"General, it's really you, do you know that we are all concerned about you. After listening to Ying Xue's words, Wang Zhuo finally knew that the person in front of him was indeed Ying Xue, because what Ying Xue and Wang Zhuo said alone when they parted, and there would be no third person who would know, so there was no doubt that the person in front of him was Ying Xue.

"It's been a hard time these days. I know you're having a hard time, but from now on, everything will be fine. Yingxue said confidently.

"General, I don't know how you got here these days, why did you come to us now, we have been waiting so hard, we are almost unable to hold on, but now you are back. We have the backbone. Wang Zhuo said happily.

"It's really hard for you these days, my affairs are really hard to explain, I'll talk to you in detail later, now. The most important thing for us is to get through the current difficulties, and I don't know what General Wang Zhuo has to do now. Ying Xue asked solemnly.

"Now, the general has returned. Everything is at the command of the general, oh. This is the general's token, and now the original is returned. Please come and lead us on the occasion. Wang Zhuo said with a relieved expression, these days, all kinds of pressure have made him a little breathless, Wang Zhuo is already exhausted, and he is about to be unable to support it.

"Brother Wang, this matter has to be discussed in the long run, and the military affairs here have to be mastered by you, so I still hide it, so that we can secretly plot it, surprise, I mean to take Gao Yuanhao first, and completely control the three northern provinces, Brother Wang, what do you think?" asked Yingxue seriously.

"I also have this intention, but we have been careful with the general's orders, focusing on defense, coupled with the pressure from all sides, we can only temporarily stabilize our position, so we did not attack Gao Yuanhao, but now that the general has returned, we don't need to scruple about it, we can do a big job!" Wang Zhuo asked excitedly, in the past few months, although the army has been focusing on defense, there is no major war, but the tedious military affairs have also made Wang Zhuo tired enough, it seems that this kind of thing is not something that everyone can do.

"Okay, since we coincide, then let's make a big deal, don't make a big deal about what I'm coming to do, otherwise it's not conducive to acting. Brother Wang, you first bring in several military commanders, and I would like to discuss this matter with you and study a specific plan of action. Ying Xue said to Wang Zhuo with a smile.

There are faithful people like Wang Zhuo, loyal subordinates who are also brothers and friends, and there are no regrets in life, in fact, Wang Zhuo and Yingxue do not have too deep friendship, it can be said that Yingxue and Wang Zhuo have not been friends for a long time, but Wang Zhuo is like an old friend for many years, waiting for Yingxue wholeheartedly, how can such a person not be moved, this is Yingxue's biggest feeling now. In Wang Zhuo's heart, Yingxue is the real king, although the future is bleak, but Yingxue's appreciation and trust deeply moved Wang Zhuo, which is why Wang Zhuo refused to betray Yingxue and stood on his own.

Because only by following people like Yingxue, they can give full play to their abilities, everyone has their own specific abilities, just like Yingxue handed over the position of general to Wang Zhuo, Wang Zhuo felt that it was difficult for him to be qualified for this position, in fact, the most important thing in a person's life is to set their own position, don't be ambitious, unrealistic fantasies, so that they can make the most satisfactory explanation of their lives, the so-called contentment and happiness, it is from this.

"Yes, General, I'll go at once. Wang Zhuo said happily that the return of Yingxue had swept away Wang Zhuo's troubles for many days, and his mood became happy.

Ying Xue looked at the back of Wang Zhuo leaving, and her heart was also full of emotion, like Tang Bin, Zhou Ming, Wang Zhuo and so on, these brothers did not ask for anything, because their future was absolutely unknown, but they still followed him without regrets, which is the most touching place, and it is also the reason why Ying Xue has not been able to give up.

It didn't take long for Wang Zhuo to come with the commanders of the five armies, three of the five commanders surrendered, and when Yingxue left, he took Zhou Ming, Zeng Zhaoli and others away, and the number of senior leaders in the army was greatly reduced, so after Yingxue left, Wang Zhuo saw that there were too many troops and too few three army commanders. The management could not be in place, so two new army commanders were promoted. The troops were divided into five corps.

After these five army commanders were called back by Wang Zhuo, they still looked puzzled. I don't know what happened to the big thing, I have to bother Wang Zhuo to come to the five of them personally, these days they are busy for defense, Tianguan and Tiemen Pass must not have any mistakes, otherwise, they may fall into a dilemma, and there is a supply problem for nearly 200,000 troops, although there is no major problem for the time being. But it is not a good way in the long run, these days the five of them are basically on the front line, eating and living with the soldiers, so not a single soldier escaped from the camp, but some more soldiers have been added.

Usually, Wang Zhuo came to inspect various places, and this was the first time that he called the five people together in such a hurry, because although there was a teleportation array that could facilitate communication between them, after all, it was calm before the mountain rain was coming, and the situation was about to erupt. No one dares to be careless. However, when the five of them saw Wang Zhuo with a smile on his face, he looked a little unfathomable, and everyone was a little uneasy.

"Everyone. Look who's coming!" Wang Zhuo said happily.

"You're Yingxue, you're a general!"

"Ahh

"Great. Great!" everyone said happily.

"Shhhhh

"See the general!" everyone said in unison to Yingxue.

"Hurry up, everybody. Hurry up, huh. Brother Wang, who are these two?" Ying Xue hurriedly helped everyone up one by one, and saw that there were two military commanders who he didn't know yet, so he hurriedly asked.

"Oh, let me introduce you, Lu Qi, Li Li, and Zhang Luo, the three army commanders, the generals know each other, these two were newly promoted by me after the general left, this is Ma Or, and this is Zheng Ti. Why don't you come and see General Yingxue soon, we have been looking forward to it for so long, you two will not hesitate to see the true God. Wang Zhuo said humorously to the two army commanders Zheng and Ma, after Yingxue came back, Wang Zhuo's pressure was greatly reduced, his mood was much more cheerful, and he became funny.

"Subordinate Zheng Ti (Ma Or) See General!" Ying Xue looked at Ma or Zheng Ti, Ma or Zheng Ti is burly, with strong flesh, and at first glance he is a fierce general, but Zheng Ti looks more than Qi Wen, no horse or such a tall figure, he may be better at strategy, but since it is the person selected by Wang Zhuo, there must be nothing wrong, Ying Xue thought about it for a while, and hurriedly greeted: "Everyone is their own brother, there is no need to be so polite, you can call me Ying Xue, come and sit quickly." ”

"Thank you, General!" Of course, Zheng and Ma have heard of Yingxue, and they have also seen Yingxue, after all, everyone has been together for a while, not to mention that Yingxue has no frame at all, and often inspects the battalions, and also goes into battle in person, so everyone knows Yingxue. Although Zheng and Ma have never dealt with Yingxue, he knows everything about Yingxue.

"Okay, now that Yingxue is here, I'll be relaxed, I've returned the original general's token to the general, and everyone will take Yingxue's words as a guide to action in the future, and there must be no mistakes!" Wang Zhuo said with a serious face.

"It's General Wang!" replied the five army commanders in unison.

Of course, Lu Qi, Li Li, and Zhang Luo knew about Yingxue, and Wang Zhuo's words were listened to by Ma He and Zheng Ti, because these two newly promoted military commanders must have listened to Wang Zhuo's words more, after all, they were promoted by Wang Zhuo, so Wang Zhuo had to subdue them first.

"Hey, Brother Wang, you don't have to be like this, it's not convenient for me to show up now, this place still has to be dominated by you, but don't worry, I will help you from the side." Ying Xue saw Wang Zhuo's intentions, and hurriedly stopped him, now Ying Xue has a lot of things to plan, and the purpose of his coming is just to understand Wang Zhuo's attitude, and he doesn't want to take Wang Zhuo's command.

"General, in fact, with Wang Zhuo's talent, you can only be a strategist, or be able to lead an army, you want me to do this position now, Wang is really sparse and incompetent, these days I trembled and barely survived, and finally I was able to give you a satisfactory answer, now you want me to continue to do it, I really have more than enough strength and strength, and I am about to be unable to hold on, please ask the general to be smart." Wang Zhuo said sincerely, he may be very clear about his ability, and he also puts his position very right.

"Brother Wang, you are really too polite, haven't you done a good job now. This matter is settled, and this force is still under your command. Brother Wang doesn't need to excuse himself anymore. Ying Xue's words couldn't help but be undoubted, and she turned to Lu Qi and the other five military commanders and said, "Let's discuss it now." On the question of how to unify the three northern provinces, otherwise if we do not have a base area, we will not only suffer from the enemy on our backs, but will also be exhausted. So I think the top priority is to take down Gao Yuanhao first, so as to relieve our worries, so that we can have the capital to compete with other generals, I don't know what you think?"

"Well, that's what we want, and everything will be done according to the general's instructions. Wang Zhuo saw Yingxue say this. He didn't say anything anymore, for Yingxue's acquaintance, Wang Zhuo had to fight to reward him, Wang Zhuo immediately agreed to Yingxue's plan, he was also thinking about this problem these days, a battle with Gao Yuanliang is a matter of time, long pain is better than short pain, come to a one-time solution, so as not to leave endless disasters.

"We will be sent by the general!" Lu Qi and the other five army commanders also expressed their support for Yingxue's plan. They have all fought side by side with Yingxue, and they have all seen Yingxue's prestige, and since Wang Zhuo trusts and supports Yingxue so much, they are subordinates. How can you not support Eagle Snow?

"Since everybody agrees, let's go on the offensive side. Let General Wang take command, I don't know Gao Yuanhao's troop deployment and soldier ability. And General Wang is already an old friend of Gao Yuanhao, for their defense and weaknesses. I think he should know very well, so I don't dare to say anything about it now, and I don't dare to say anything. Ying Xue gave Wang Zhuo a look and said with a smile.

"This, this, I don't know much about it, my defense is okay, but if I want to command the attack, it may not be very thorough, if I delay the fighter plane and cause the attack to be frustrated, then I will become a sinner through the ages. Lu Qi, do you have any clever plans?" Wang Zhuo hurriedly excused himself, turned to Lu Qi and winked at them.

"We don't have any good strategy, although Gao Yuanhao was trapped by us, but his strength is still quite strong, in fact, then again, although we trapped Gao Yuanhao, but also involved ourselves, if we attack Gao Yuanhao with all our might, we must attack at the same time, but also to prevent the enemy outside Tianguan from sneaking attack, we must leave a part of the troops to defend, resulting in us not daring to attack with all our strength, taking care of one and losing the other, now is really not the best time to attack. Lu Qi said bluntly.

"General, the four of us also agree with Commander Lu's meaning, if we fight together, we will definitely lose our troops, even if we win Gao Yuanhao by luck and win, we will also be greatly injured, at that time, the people who covet us will take advantage of our weakness to come, so won't we lose more than we gain? So my subordinates think that now we are still focusing on defense and not attacking Gao Yuanhao, please think twice. Zheng Ti also agreed with Lu Qi's opinion, it is better not to have a war now.

"You five guys are really short-sighted, do you know what the situation is now? Although we can now seek a temporary respite in the contradictions, but this is only a short-term phenomenon, now we are worried about internal and external troubles, there are many people who are eyeing us, if we do not take precautions as soon as possible, the worst outcome will be us, now we are trapped between Tianguan and Tiemen Pass, although we rely on the danger of Tianguan and Tiemen Pass, Gou An for a while, but for a long time, if Gao Yuanhao contacts other generals outside the pass to attack Tianguan and Tiemen Pass at the same time, who wins and who loses, I think you are very clear, at that time, we will die without a place to be buried, have you all thought about these questionsWang Zhuo said sharply.

Lu Qi, Zheng Ti and others were dumbfounded by Wang Zhuo's words, they are not greedy for life and afraid of death, their concerns are not unreasonable, and they all know what Wang Zhuo said, but they don't have a good solution now, they can march and fight, but when it comes to giving advice, it is not their strength. In other words, they lack the vision and courage of a strategist, and can only see micro and local wars, but they are unable to examine and analyze the current situation from a macro perspective.

"Brother Wang, you don't have to blame them, in fact, the unification of the three northern provinces I am talking about is not to forcibly attack Gao Yuanhao, of course, since we want to unify the three northern provinces, then war is inevitable, but we take Gao Yuanhao with the minimum consumption, and we don't have to make a big move. Yingxue said confidently.

"Could it be that the general has already thought of a good way?" Wang Zhuo said happily, he had no choice, he was the same as Lu Qi and the other five army commanders. It is also more defensive, but not very offensive.

Ying Xue looked at Wang Zhuo and the other six pairs of eyes full of expectation. He smiled and said, "Actually, it's very simple, as far as I know, isn't Gao Yuanhao trying to persuade us to surrender? Take advantage of the situation to take Gao Yuanhao in one fell swoop, do you think this plan is feasible?"

"Fraudulent surrender, this method is good, it can not only win without a fight, but also reduce casualties, why didn't we think of it? This method is really good, it's just ......" Lu Qi said with some hesitation.

"Commander Lu doesn't need to worry, if you have something to say, please speak up!" Yingxue said.

"The subordinate was just wondering if this matter would be a bit risky. And this matter must be handled by General Wang himself, if he misses, General Wang will definitely be killed, and then we will not be ......" Lu Qi's meaning is self-evident, if Gao Yuanhao takes the opportunity to poison him, Wang Zhuo will definitely be unable to protect his life, and when the time comes, won't they be a group of dragons without a leader and disperse without a fight.

"You can rest assured that I will go with General Wang Zhuo in person. With my ability, I can guarantee that General Wang will be fine, and he will return with his whole body. Ying Xue said with an oath.

"If the general himself goes with us, then we can rest easy. Lu Qi and the others said happily, they had personally learned Yingxue's methods. And they have also heard about the Eagle Snow vs. the Heavenly Wind Country, and they not only admire Eagle Snow, but also can be said to be quite worshipful. In fact, Wang Zhuo, Lu Qi, Zhang Luo, and Li Li were also well-intentioned, and they saw that Yingxue refused to take over the position of general again. Everyone was a little anxious, so they wanted to take this opportunity to trap Eagle Snow. If Yingxue can stay and lead them, this is the thing they all look forward to the most, Yingxue's kindness to them is the thing that touches them the most, Wang Zhuo and others have already made up their minds to follow Yingxue for the rest of their lives and create a vigorous career.

"Okay, please keep your affairs secret, I will appear in front of you with this face in the future, I will be General Wang's personal soldier in the future, everyone will call me Long, please pay attention to this. After Ying Xue finished speaking, he changed to another face, this kind of kung fu surprised everyone, this long-lost disappearance technique, they had never even heard of it, and today when they saw Ying Xue come out, of course they were curious and surprised.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, we have decided like this, you have been out for a long time, now everyone hurry back to avoid accidents. Seeing that the matter had almost been satisfactorily resolved, Wang Zhuo immediately ordered Lu Qi and the other five army commanders to rush back to their respective posts immediately.

"Yes, General, I will take my leave. Seeing that Yingxue had agreed to stay, Lu Qi and the others also happily returned to their posts.

"Brother Wang, the matter here is over, I want to rush back. Other ......" Yingxue's words were not finished before Wang Zhuo interrupted.

"Is the general going to leave again?" Wang Zhuo said anxiously.

"Brother Wang, don't get me wrong, I'm just going to Yaoguan, I'll be back tomorrow, I also found you a master to be a subordinate, of course, there are Xiaotian and others, they are all waiting for me at the inn, so I have to go back." Ying Xue said with a smile.

"I see, I'm really nervous. Wang Zhuo was also amused by himself.

"Otherwise, tomorrow you can simply come to Yaoguan to inspect it, I will live in a house called 'Gaosheng Inn', when the time comes, I will play a play with you, and then I will take the opportunity to find an opportunity to join your personal army, and also introduce the dragon to you by the way, so that I can blend in with you and not attract the attention of others, what do you think?" Ying Xue told Wang Zhuo about his plan like this.

"Alright, do as you say, General, and I'll come to you tomorrow." Wang Zhuo said happily, fighting side by side with Yingxue, Wang Zhuo was very excited, Yingxue connected nine city passes including Tianguan in one day, this is the most admirable thing for Wang Zhuo, and he also knew Yingxue at that time, Wang Zhuo is absolutely confident in Yingxue's command ability and courage, Yingxue's return not only makes him now let go of some of his burdens, but also Yingxue itself is a guiding light, with Yingxue's leadership they will have a clear goal and direction.

"Gao Yuanhao has come to persuade him to surrender recently, if there is, you have to seize the opportunity immediately, don't let it go. Ying Xue explained.

"Don't worry, General, I won't let it go, I'll come to you tomorrow. Wang Zhuo said happily.

"Oh, don't call me a general all the time, remember, my name is Long Ji, don't call me wrong!" said Yingxue as she walked.

"Yes, General, I also have a word to tell you, this look of yours is not very good-looking, can you change it. Wang Zhuo also said humorously.

"I know, but I'm used to it, and there's nothing to do, just reluctantly. Yingxue didn't care, and after answering, she rose into the air and disappeared into the vast night. (To be continued.) )
