Chapter 1228 Face

Shangguan Xiu picked up the stick with the pheasant on it, handed it to Hailey, and said, "You can eat it." 【△網】"

Hayley took it, just smelling the aroma, and her saliva was about to come out. She asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"You eat first. Shangguan Xiu said indifferently. With his cultivation, even if he doesn't eat for a few days, there is no problem.

His words were light and light, but Hai Li listened to it with a warm heart, tore off a chicken leg, handed it to Shangguan Xiu, and said, "Oh!"

Seeing him looking at him with a smile, Hailey pouted and muttered, "Your Royal Highness, if you are hungry, I can't afford to pay for it." ”

"Duplicity. Shangguan Xiu took the chicken leg.

"Hey, what do you mean? Do you think I'm concerned about you? I'm worried that you're hungry and I can't explain to the Emperor's sister!" said Hayley, blushing and puffing out.

Shangguan Xiu didn't argue with her, smiled lightly, and ate chicken legs silently.

Even when he didn't look at her, he could feel her gaze sweeping over him. He swallowed the chicken in his mouth, raised his head, met Haili's somewhat flustered gaze, and asked, "Is it pretty?"

Secretly looking at others, being caught by others, even if Hailey's cheeks are thick, she is a little embarrassed, she first 'cut' disapprovingly, and then, unconsciously looked at Shangguan Xiu, and said: "Actually, you look good with short hair." ”

"Oh?" he habitually raised his hand to brush the silver hair on his chest, touched it twice, but did not touch it, and then suddenly remembered that the silver hair on his chest had been cut off.

"It's better than having long hair! It's not a man or a woman, what it looks like. Hailey really thinks that Shangguan Xiu looks better when she has short hair, at least it is more in line with her aesthetics, and with a straight military uniform, the whole person looks heroic and refreshed.

Shangguan Xiu looked up and smiled, and said, "Hurry up and eat, we still have to hurry." ”

"Hmm. "I don't know if it's because of the short mouth of eating people, after eating Shangguanxiu's roast chicken, Hailey is a lot more well-behaved.

After a hasty breakfast, Shangguan Xiu and Hailey rode their horses and headed for the east of Doki.

To make a long story short, the two of them ate and slept in the open air, day and night, and fifteen days later, they entered the eastern area of Duki, and after another three days, the two arrived at the garrison of the Third Army of the Zhenjun Army.

At present, the 3rd Army Corps is temporarily stationed on the territory of Mount Muri.

Muri Mountain is a large mountainous area, the terrain is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are many roads out of the mountain, which can be described as extending in all directions, and it is a good hiding place.

After Shangguan Xiu and Hai Li entered Mu Ri Mountain, they were quickly discovered by the Feng Army's outpost, and after asking for their identities, the Feng Army immediately invited Shangguan Xiu and Hai Li to their own station.

The main force of the Feng Army was stationed on a mountain, and in the tent of the Chinese army on the top of the mountain, Shangguan Xiu saw Hu Chong.

The two have not seen each other for more than a year, and suddenly heard the news of Shangguan Xiu's arrival, Hu Chong was overjoyed, and took the generals of the Third Army to welcome out of the Chinese military tent, and people knelt on one knee one after another, bowed to Shangguan Xiu, and said: "The last general will see His Royal Highness!"

Shangguan Xiu stepped forward quickly, helped Hu Chong up, waved his hand to the rest of the generals, and said, "Generals, please get up quickly!" Regarding the performance of the Third Legion, Shangguan Xiu can no longer be described as satisfied, the Third Legion has brought him too many surprises.

To say that on the Duki battlefield, the greatest credit belongs to the Third Army, and the Third Army also took care of the North County, the Besa Army sent troops to aid Tang Yu, and when entering the North County, it was Hu Chong who led the Third Army to beat the Besa Army back, so that the counterinsurgency war in the Wind Country could be carried out smoothly.

Entering the Chinese military tent, everyone sat down one after another. Hu Chong asked Shangguan Xiu to sit in the main seat in the center, and Shangguan Xiu refused, turned around and sat next to him.

Shangguan Xiu refused to sit on the main seat, Hu Chong even more dared not sit, he was just about to walk to Shangguan Xiu's side and sit down, the latter smiled: "I haven't seen him for a year, how did Lao Hu become so unfamiliar and polite? Between you and me, do you still use such a concession?"

In a word, Hu Chong's face turned red when he said it, and finally he reluctantly lived in the main seat, and all the generals present also laughed.

I haven't seen each other for more than a year, and it is indeed a little rusty, but Shangguan Xiu's words made this bit of alienation between people disappear, as if they had returned to the intimate atmosphere of the past.

Shangguan Xiu looked around at the people present, at least half of the generals were fresh faces, and it could also be seen from this that the Third Army was not without battle damage, half of the generals had been replaced, and it was conceivable how many soldiers had been replaced.

Hu Chong owed a debt and said: "The domestic rebels are in turmoil, and the last general has failed to lead the army to rescue, and I ask His Highness for forgiveness." ”

Shangguan Xiu waved his hand and said, "The Duki battlefield is where your accusations lie, and each performs its own duties, so what's wrong." ”

"Your Highness Thank you for your understanding!" all the generals present bowed in unison.

Shangguan Xiu asked: "The three legions go deep behind the enemy and fight alone, if there is any difficulty, even if it is raised, as long as the imperial court can do it, the three legions must be given priority." ”

Hearing this, everyone present was overjoyed, and it could be seen that His Highness valued himself more than other legions.

Before Hu Chong could speak, a young general stood up and arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, the last general thinks that we should expand the muskets of five battalions of our regiment into one corps. ”

His sudden words made the Chinese army tent immediately silent.

Hu Chong frowned secretly, glanced at the general, and said with a smile to Shangguan Xiu: "This is the commander of the First Corps, Deng Kai." Young man, he has not been in office for a long time, and he has made reckless mistakes, so please don't blame Your Highness. ”

If it was a military meeting within the Third Legion, Deng Kai would skip the commander and deputy corps commander and directly express his opinion, and no one would blame him, but now that Shangguan Xiu was present, he would be too ignorant of the rules and too arrogant to do so.

Shangguan Xiu was not angry, and asked with a smile: "General Deng wants a corps of muskets?"

Deng Kai Zhengse said: "Our corps is a direct corps of the corps, shouldering the important task of protecting the general and supporting the three armies, if the musket of our department can be expanded from five battalions to the entire corps, the combat power of our department will be greatly improved, the protection of the general, the support of the three armies, can be greatly enhanced, please Your Highness Mingjian!"

As the commander of the first corps, Deng Kai is very familiar with the performance of muskets.

Shangguan Xiu only groaned slightly, and nodded in response: "Okay! Within this month, a batch of muskets will be delivered to the front line from the rear, and when the time comes, all these muskets will be distributed to the three army corps, what does General Deng think?"

When Deng Kai heard this, he was pleasantly surprised, and immediately knelt on his knees, stepped forward to salute, and said, "The last general, His Royal Highness Longen!"

Hu Chong cleared his throat and said, "Your Highness, this ...... I'm afraid it's not right!"

Everyone knows that muskets are a good thing, and because of this, the muskets transported to the front line in the rear, every regiment is staring at them, Shangguan Xiu wants to distribute the entire batch of muskets to the third corps this time, can the other legions not be blushing?

Shangguan Xiu waved his hand at Hu Chong and said, "In terms of weapon allocation, I will not be selfish, I just look at who needs it the most. Compared with other legions, the three legions do need to strengthen the armament of weapons, and in this matter, Lao Hu does not have to feel uncomfortable. ”

Hu Chong scratched his head, feeling heartwarmed. Shangguan Xiu continued: "What's more, I made a special trip to the east of Duji this time, if I didn't bring any gifts, it really couldn't be said, and the generals still thought I was here to play." ”

All the generals present laughed in unison, got up and left the table one after another, knelt on one knee, and said in unison: "Thank you, Your Highness Longen!"

Hu Chong didn't think that Shangguan Xiu had made a special trip to make a promise and distribute muskets for himself, he asked, "Your Highness must have something to do when you come here this time, right?"

Shangguan Xiu first waved to the generals of Shane, motioning for them to all return to their seats and sit down, and then he said, "This time, Hailey and I are going to Xiolun and stop by. ”

"Your Highness is going to the city-state of Solan?"

"Well, the city-state of Woro in the northwest of Duki, who doesn't know whether to live or die, acts as a springboard for the Ningnan people, secretly helping the Ningnan people transport supplies, before sending troops to fight, I also need to prophetically inform the Solan city-state, if possible, try to let the Solan city-state send troops, our army concentrates on fighting in Duki, and does not interfere in northern affairs. ”

"I see! No wonder the supplies of the people of Ningnan are so abundant, as if they can't be used up no matter how they are!" Hu Chong muttered: "It turns out that Ningnan has continuously transported domestic supplies into Duki through the city-state of Woluo. ”

Deng Kai asked curiously: "Your Highness, since the city-state of Volo is already on the side of the Ningnan people, why doesn't it open the door for the people of Ningnan to pass through the territory of the city-state of Volo and return to China?"

Shangguan Xiu smiled silently, such a stupid question didn't need him to answer.

Li Ling Zhengse, one of the deputy commanders of the army, said: "It is an open secret that the Solan city-state supports our country, so the Wallo city-state only dares to secretly assist the Ningnan people, if the Ningnan people are allowed to enter its territory, it is tantamount to openly tearing up the face with the Solan city-state, after the Ningnan people leave, its end will not be far away, how can the Wallo city-state be stupid enough to do such a stupid thing?" After a pause, he said again: "But then again, now that the matter has been revealed, the Wallo city-state will still be unable to escape death!"

Hu Chong said with a smile: "The Solan city-state has coveted the Wallo city-state for a long time, and I am worried that there is no chance to attack it, and now His Highness wants to destroy the Wallo city-state, and the Solan city-state will definitely support it." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Hailey meaningfully, and said: "If His Highness proposes to let the Solan City-State give up the territory of the Volo City-State to Miss Hailey, I am afraid that the Solan City-State may not allow it." ”

Shangguan Xiu did not say that he had the intention of taking Hai Li with him, but Hu Chong had already guessed that Shang Guan Xiu discussed with the Solan city-state about the elimination of the city-state of Volo, but he took Hai Li with him, except for helping Hai Li find a place to live in Besa, he couldn't think of any other intentions.

Hu Chong's outspokenness made Hailey's face ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Even if you don't need to send troops from the Solan city-state, just the army of the city-state of Jinsk is enough to wipe out the city-state of Voro!"

Don't look at the city-state of Volo, which is vast and rich, but its population is only a million and 100,000 iron horsemen, which is enough to level it.

Hu Chong shook his head again and again, and said: "The western city-states of Besa have been allied, and the city-state of Solan is the leader of the alliance, if Miss Hailey rashly attacks the city-state of Volo, the city-state of Roland, as the leader of the alliance, is forced by the pressure of other city-states and must send troops to reinforce it, if the city-states in the west of Besa have sent troops to join the war, Miss Hailey thinks that with only 100,000 iron horsemen, can she defeat the city-state of Volo?"

"Ah Xiu will help me ......"

"Your Highness help you, that's a personal relationship, a war with the alliance of the city-states in the west of Bessa, that's a state affair, how can it be compared? Hu Chong said calmly.

What he said to Hai Li was also a reminder to Shangguan Xiu that he couldn't tear his face with the Solan city-state because of Hai Li.

At the time of the war with Ningnan, the support of the Solan city-state to its own side was too important, and its significance was no less than five or six legions, and the reason why the third legion was able to thrive in the east of Duki was largely dependent on the full support of the Solan city-state.

Hailey clenched her fists and stared at Hu Chong coldly, and after a long while, she asked, "Could it be that I can't take advantage of the matter of destroying the city-state of Volo?"

Hu Chong said with a smile: "If Miss Hailey goes to negotiate with the Solan city-state alone, she will indeed not be able to take advantage of it at all, but if His Highness personally goes out, the Solan City-State will still buy His Highness's account, and His Highness's face can be worth three cities and three hundred miles!"
