(The next chapter is late in the wee hours of the morning, so don't wait.) )

The gateway of the two states of Liangling in Beiliang Road was opened, and the gates of the cities and cities were relaxed almost at the same time. A cavalry team quietly entered Lingzhou from the Micang Ridge Road adjacent to the Kuimen Sword Pavilion in the northwest direction, and the number of cavalry was only five or six people, all of whom were big men, and there was no fat powder at all. Ma Zheng post road is gradually reduced withered, no longer the spring and autumn war smoke when the grand occasion, but located in Shu Liang between the Micang Ridge Road, even if the mountain road is rugged, the post road is still a heavy cost every year, repaired extremely perfect, compared to the Spring and Autumn Period, this is just a great fortune for the traders in the two places without deep thought, but in the eyes of those who are concerned, it is the Beiliang Iron Cavalry to drive south, or the Shu Dijing soldiers to drive north, it is nothing more than a line of separation, the cavalry stopped at a mountain with a broad vision to look south, the old man at the head of the horse whip pointed to the Sword Pavilion, and said with a smile: "Originally, according to Yishan's plan, there are thousands of light cavalry in Kuimen Xiongguan for the Wang family father and son, plus the six thousand elite armor soldiers hidden in Qingcheng Mountain, the inside and the outside should be combined, if our Beiliang really has the ambition to annex the Central Plains, or the court is too ruthless, not to mention anything else, the western front of Xishu Nanzhao, within three months, can be all in my hands. But since Chen Zhibao went to Shu alone, although he has not been named the king of Shu, he is still being the secretary of the military department for the time being, but as long as he goes to Shu to govern for a few years in the future, this break, hey, Beiliang is like a person with a sore under his armpit, he can't catch it, it's not if he doesn't catch it, it's very uncomfortable. ”

In addition to the rickety old man who swallowed his words like a tiger, there were also His Royal Highness Xu Fengnian, Yuan Zuozong, the commander of the new cavalry army of Beiliang, and Han Laoshan and Xu Yanbing, who were about to become the actual deputy general of Lingzhou, stopped side by side and looked south to Xishu together. Xu Xiao rode his horse on the top of the mountain road of Micang Lingdao, and after wearing the red fox fur hat on the battleship of Chunshen Lake, he never took it off during the detention journey. Xu Xiao turned the horse's head, " Previously, Lu Qiu'er introduced, I also saw the long-awaited Southern Tang Dynasty old general Gu Dazu, after he said as an outsider, only to know that the road of our Beiliang region is not big, there are so many pay attention to the doorway, according to his minutes, Beiliang Road can be turned into three districts and fourteen terrain, at a glance, according to Gu Dazu's teachings, Beiliang occupies the upper reaches of the world, and the breath of all parts of the world is connected, can control the life of the world, before only heard Yishan say that after the unification of Beiliang in Daqin, there were 1,281 wars in history, and it is a well-deserved place of a thousand battles, but Yishan does not believe in the Mandate of Heaven ghosts and gods, and I also know that Yishan is in the bottom of his heart, and he does not approve of Beiliang to invade the Central Plains with the strength of lions fighting rabbits, and then let the Central Plains smoke rise, so over the years, in fact, he has not lived happily. ”

Xu Fengnian, who wore a Beiliang knife on his waist, said with a smile: "Master always said that the talents of the world must be controlled by knowledge, so they will not be arrogant and indulgent, and they can succeed by taking advantage of the situation." This is really good intentions, not to mention your notoriety in the Spring and Autumn War, just the background of our Xu family, even if there is an old god stick like Huang Sanjia who makes any ruizhao, it will not be used at all, and the world's scholars and people's hearts will not fall to the Xu family. Nowadays, scholars, especially those who are not willing to fight, have poured into Beiliang, and that is also because Beiliang has played the banner of guarding the northwest for the Central Plains and given them a step down, otherwise you see who is willing to come to Beiliang to be an official. ”

Xu Xiao raised his hand and pushed the leather hat with a horsewhip, and said with a smile: "Who let my father give birth hundreds of years early, Yishan said that he was born hundreds of years later, let the world's cold people gain power, and the foundation of the gate valve is completely destroyed, and the reunification of the emperor's order is no longer as demanding as it is now, that is, everyone can sit on the emperor's throne. Who sits on the dragon chair and who doesn't, they don't care. But then again, your father has only left some prestige in the army over the years, not to mention the Central Plains, that is, in Beiliang, if one day he is crushed by the Beimang Iron Cavalry, in case someone in Beimang can govern the government well, most of the people, in a few years, will not miss the Xu family's love for their 20 years of care. Speaking of this, the more my father felt that the battle of Xileibi won a fluke, the land of the Central Plains, the remnants of Xichu who had the intention to restore the country, but it was really a wildfire that could not be burned, and it seemed that he didn't know how to write the dead words of Lu Dao, and I am afraid it would be difficult to gather such a national heart in the future. Let's Beiliang, not to mention that compared to Xichu, even if it is compared with Xishu, it is still a lot worse, this has to blame Dad, immediately fight the world to make do, after getting off the horse, it will be sloppy. Governing the world, after all, is the ability of scholars, they are the best, my father didn't think it before, but now he is really unconvinced. Dad suffered too much from them when he was young, and every time he saw their dignified faces, he couldn't help but want to beat them, so in the future, when dealing with scholars and scholars, it's up to you, don't learn from Dad, your temper must be better. ”

Xu Fengnian smiled and nodded, "Youxi Plateau, Youbei Plain, Liangxi Corridor, Qilian Mountains, Longdong Longxi, Helan Mountains, etc., a total of fourteen places, since Gu Dazu has carefully divided the Beiliang War Zone, I will be able to target my henchmen and generals in the future." Then slowly besiege the scholars who govern political affairs, each performing its own duties, there are border guards and thick stuffing wrapped meat, and Beiliang is not easy to mess up. This trip to the north of the scholars must be mixed with a lot of Zhao family eyeliner, I would like to see how high they can make trouble. Beiliang has the limitations of Beiliang, but also has the unique advantages of Beiliang, as long as 300,000 iron horses are in, enough to protect themselves, Beiliang except for the Liangxi Corridor is a place of ointment, most of the rest of the places are not abundant, there are worries about grain storage, Kanto Caoyun has been clamped by the imperial court, but the good generals are strong, the East and West Helong have been talented since ancient times, that is, Zhang Julu is a temple boss is also greedy, to put it mildly, even if we are hungry, we can beat the so-called soldiers of a hundred battles outside Beiliang to cry dad and call mother. ”

Xu Xiao joked and said: "Yo, why do you sound a little ambitious to be a commander, Dad remembers that when you were a child, you always wanted to be a heroic man who drew a sword to help when the road was uneven, and you had no interest in leading troops to fight." ”

Xu Fengnian said calmly: "Only when I have really walked through the rivers and lakes can I know that the power of Lu Dao alone has an end, and the idea of being a hero will fade." Imagine the horsewhip, tens of thousands of iron horsemen swarm out at every turn, who can stop it, Wang Xianzhi, or Cao Changqing?"

Yuan Zuozong laughed softly and said, "If it were them, they would still be able to block it." ”

Xu Xiao smiled heartily, and was very pleased that this righteous son could talk and laugh with his eldest son. At that time, the six sons were each high-spirited, Lu Qiu'er didn't say it, and Yao Jian, who had a weak temperament, had some dealings with his son, which made Xu Xiao worry a lot, among several righteous sons, Yuan Zuozong's temperament was not inferior to Chen Zhibao, and the white bear was able to "bow his head", Qi Dangguo was almost happy to surrender to Feng Nian at the moment, which was undoubtedly an unexpected joy. The two Hu Cong, Han Laoshan and Xu Yanbing, who were inconspicuous, looked at each other and smiled tacitly. In fact, both of them are from the same door as the spear fairy Wang embroiderer, but the world only knows that Han Laoshan is Wang Xiu's junior brother, but they don't know Xu Yanbing. Because Wang Xiu, as one of the four great masters of the rivers and lakes of the previous generation, is unparalleled in the northwest of the Central Plains, not only Han Laoshan is covered up in the dark, not to mention Xu Yanbing, who left the sect early to walk the rivers and lakes. Even Xu Fengnian returned to Beiliang on this trip, only to learn from Han Laoshan's mouth that Xu Yanbing was too sharp at the beginning, almost making the much older Wang Xiu hopeless to catch up, so that he was almost depressed, Wang Xiu's father had to half expel and half invite the most optimistic disciple with a foreign surname out of the Wang family, Xu Fengnian figured out that the reason why Xu Xiao dared to leave Beiliang and go deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains was not by relying on Han Laoshan, the younger brother of the spear fairy, but by the nameless Xu Yanbing. The last time the King of Beiliang went to Beijing, Xu Xiao went to Qintianjian, and when he met the queen Zhao Zhi, Ren Tu also brought Xu Yanbing, not Han Laoshan.

The group continued to slowly go north on the hilltop post road, Xu Xiao and Xu Fengnian walked side by side, Xu Xiao said softly: " In addition to the three positions of the Northern Liang Metropolitan Protector and the Cavalry Infantry Commander have been settled, Lu Qiu'er and your second brother Yuan have already sat on it, and Yan Wenluan's infantry commander also has to be given to Gu Dazu, and then the three state generals of Liangyouling in Beiliang Dao are the most powerful, among which the position of Liangzhou General has always been concurrently held by the Northern Liang Metropolitan Protector, and the Youzhou General has given the ambitious Huangfu scale, Xu Yanbing and Han Laoshan serve as the deputy generals of Lingzhou, and only the main general is left vacant. What are your plans?"

Xu Fengnian hesitated for a moment and said: "Yan Wenluan's side is not easy to deal with, after all, he is a meritorious veteran, Yan Wenluan is not as old as Zhong Hongwu, and he is also a delicate person, so he has no handle." I plan to let Gu Dazu first divide General Liangzhou from Lu Qiu'er and make a transition. Wang Zhi, the hero who submitted his name in the Battle of Tiemen Pass, and some capable generals of the Fengzi Battalion, waited for these people to gain a firm foothold before they could attack Yan Wenluan. To tell the truth, if Yan Wenluan knows the general situation, even if he is infamous for crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, if he has to make a choice between Gu Dazu and Yan Wenluan, I am still willing to wronged Gu Dazu and continue to let Yan Wenluan, a veteran, stabilize the border. Anyway, Gu Dazu has no way out, so it's a big deal that I will personally go to the door to make amends, and just beat and scold. Gu Dazu is a soldier idiot, I don't believe that he is willing to leave Beiliang and become a wine seller. ”

Xu Xiao frowned, "Gu Dazu is a person who is unruly in his bones, aren't you afraid that he will have a bad heart? ”

Xu Fengnian smiled indifferently: "Speaking of the means of buying people's hearts, I am not as capable as you, and I never expect someone to bow to me. Besides, a bowl of water is flat, in fact, it is not level, Yan Wenluan is a banner of the Northern Liang Army, this flag can fall, but if the way it falls is not glorious, just to let Gu Dazu quickly become a new mountain, the gains outweigh the losses. If Gu Dazu didn't even wait for this amount of time, it would only be the life of a general, not a commander. ”

Xu Xiao pointed at Xu Fengnian, smiled and didn't speak, Xu Fengnian was confused, Xu Xiao couldn't hide his words with this son, and had already opened the skylight to say something, "Last time I drank and chatted with Gu Dazu, the two old men didn't sleep all night, and Gu Dazu told me the truth, after he arrived in Beiliang, he didn't want to climb to the sky in one step, and cause unnecessary turmoil and changes to the new master Beiliang, but he had to get his hands on one of the three state generals, the most important is the Lingzhou general, preferably the Liangzhou general." As long as he promised him this, he would die for his life. Heh, Gu Dazu, such a brave and courageous outlaw, has now learned to weigh the weight, and it coincides with you, are you two big and small foxes already colluding?"

Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "Gu Dazu is so understanding, he can't say anything if he doesn't give him a commander of the infantry army in the future." ”

Xu Xiao sighed and said, "Dad is completely obedient to the old man." ”

Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "I'm all playing tricks, I can't get on the stage, I'm far worse than you." ”

Xu Xiao shook his head, squinted his eyes as if he was drunk, and said: "Don't comfort your father, a father, it is never sad to serve his old age because of his son." There is nothing happier in the world. ”

Xu Fengnian said helplessly: "At noon, I drank wine and ate meat at the inn at the foot of the mountain, but I don't see how you serve the old, you are a lot old, and you still drink with me?

The old man looked embarrassed.

The old man then smiled and said, "This time I went back to the border to meet the old woman who was escorted by Tuoba Bodhisattva, and my father would rely on you to support the scene." ”

Xu Fengnian said calmly: "Okay." ”
