Chapter 234: A Clarion Call for Counterattack

Wang Xian had a smile on his face, and he seemed to care about Su Qi'an, but in fact, this was undoubtedly pouring cold water on everyone's fiery emotions.

If Su Qi'an can't catch it, the bloody nature that he has finally mobilized is likely to be hit.

Su Qi'an's face was calm, he looked at Wang Xian and said, "Thank you for the kindness of Wang Jianjun, but listening to Wang Jianjun's meaning, is it to prevent the commander-in-chief from sending troops?"

Wang Xian shook his head, "The commander-in-chief has misunderstood, our family doesn't mean this, after all, our family is only responsible for supervising the army, and our family can't be the master of the war arrangement, so we will report the news of the commander-in-chief's dispatch of troops to Your Majesty in full, and see how Your Majesty decides."

Wang Xian didn't have the slightest fear of it, and said directly, after all, his identity this time is a prison given by His Majesty, and he has the right to report everything that happens here to His Majesty.

Even if Su Qi'an hated him, he had no right to stop him.

Wang Xian had a smile on his face, but he had a little more sneer in his heart, he wanted to see how Su Qi'an, who was the new official, broke this situation.

Su Qi'an nodded, looking thoughtful, and said with a smile.

"Well, Wang Jianjun is right, after all, it is the prison army sent by His Majesty, and he has the right to report to the top, if this matter is not successful, this commander can only think of another way, and first return to the Guguan guard."

"That's right, Wang Jianjun, this time, as a supervisor, it is best to accompany this commander to return to Hangu Pass, after all, Hangu Pass is not strong enough, so the prison army has to stay with the commander-in-chief, and if necessary, Wang Jianjun has to come up with ideas and efforts, I think Wang Jianjun should not refuse this matter."

Wang Xian's smile stiffened suddenly, he didn't expect Su Qi'an to use this trick to generalize his army.

As a superintendent, according to common sense, it is true that you have to stay with the commander-in-chief, which is itself to monitor the military arrangements issued by the commander-in-chief for His Majesty, whether it is reasonable, and then report it.

If the commander-in-chief changes to someone else this time, even if it is Liu Xin, Wang Xian will not be afraid.

But it was Su Qi'an, Su Qi'an was such a shrewd person, he knew it very well.

Although he will definitely not kill him in a grand manner, it does not mean that he will not, and secretly stumble on him.

If you really return to Hangu Pass with him, it will be tantamount to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger, surrounded by his people, and when the time comes, Su Qi'an will not let him do whatever he wants.

This made Wang Xian feel like he was on pins and needles, but his thoughts turned quickly, his stiff face quickly recovered, and he hurriedly said to Su Qi.

"Hehe, what we just said is just a joke, with the guarantee of the commander-in-chief, I think this time to send troops, it is absolutely imperative, think about it, the commander-in-chief's arrangement is still very feasible."

"This little thing, our family feels that there is no need to report to Your Majesty, our family will be in Tongguan, looking forward to the victorious return of the commander-in-chief."

"Oh, is this really not reluctant, for Wang Jianjun, this commander still thinks that it will be better to report to His Majesty."

Wang Xian shook his head again and again, and said with sincerity on his face, "Hey, this matter is a trivial matter, not reluctantly, not reluctantly, everything is arranged by the commander-in-chief."

"Okay, since the Prison Commander doesn't have any opinions, then this operation will be arranged like this."

"Everyone, take a quick count of your men and give you a quarter of an hour, and in two quarters of an hour, we will be ready to go."

"The last general will obey the orders of the commander-in-chief."

Everyone replied in unison, and then a large group of people quickly left the council hall and went to their own troops.

The huge conference hall, except for a group of magnates and Wang Xian, the rest of the people left, and it seemed a little empty.

Su Qi'an looked at Wang Xian and said softly, "Then there will be King Lao's army in Tongguan."

"Commander-in-chief, rest assured, our family will definitely cooperate with the remaining defenders and wait for the commander-in-chief to return victoriously."

Su Qi'an nodded, didn't mean to stay, and strode away.

The battlefield situation is ever-changing every second, and the reason why Su Qi'an moved troops so quickly did not have the slightest intention of stopping.

Not only to strike while the iron is hot, I am afraid that the morale that has been condensed with great difficulty will dissipate with the passage of time, but more importantly, it is not to give the withdrawn wolf army a respite

Opportunity.

The wolf army is in the elite, after all, it is also a human being, and it also has to rest, and the siege of Tongguan failed to take it, and the morale was somewhat affected.

At this time, it is the best time to counterattack, he Yamulei is not good at mobile combat, so let him taste it this time, the counterattack from Da Liang.

Seeing Su Qi'an leave, the atmosphere in the council hall was very gloomy, and after a while, a powerful marquis couldn't help but speak.

"Brother Liang, is this commander-in-chief too arrogant, with this little bit of men and horses under his command, he dares to counterattack the wolf army, and he really can't think that he is the god of war."

"That's it, isn't it just that he has become a commander-in-chief, what's so arrogant, or do you want us to report this matter and let Your Majesty punish him?"

The powerful Marquis opened his mouth, and Wang Xian just replied lightly, "After reporting, are you planning to be commanded by the commander-in-chief to die one by one in the battle of the wolf army?"

In an instant, the crowd, who was still a little excited just now, fell silent all of a sudden.

Wang Xian was right, if Su Qi'an's operation was really blocked, the military arrangements behind them, they were afraid that they would die very miserably.

After all, Su Qi'an is the commander-in-chief of this war, and it is not as simple as before to deal with him.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wang Xian continued, "Since he has this idea, he wants to find death, just let him go, anyway, I will wait to sit in Tongguan, if this counterattack is won, we can also get a reward for our achievements."

"Even if he loses, it's not too late to report it, and then he will be fully responsible, and we don't need to do it at all, Your Majesty will clean him up."

"So, I think you'd better stop a little, Uncle Dongshan just took away your men and horses this time, and he couldn't take you away together, so you should burn high incense."

"Let's go, Zheng Hou, let's also go to the city wall to see us off, after all, if you do a show, you have to make a full set, so as not to be taken by others."

Zheng Liang nodded, and then left with Wang Xian, leaving only the powerful marquis who looked at each other.

In Tongguan City, countless soldiers came from all directions, and they stood in line according to their respective types of troops.

In front of them, Su Qi'an and Liu Xin sat on horseback, staring at the assembled soldiers.

Liu Xin's eyes flashed, he was silent for a while, and then said with some concern, "Commander-in-chief, my subordinates still want to remind you that this time we will take away eighty percent of the troops in Tongguan, and only five thousand defenders will be left in the city, and they are still led by Wang Xian and other powerful people."

"If they have other plans, then Kyoto is afraid of danger in the rear."

Liu Xin's worries are not unreasonable, and Su Qi'an has also considered it, he originally planned to take away all the powerful marquis.

But this counteroffensive is just one word, fast!

If you really bring these powerful lords, who will know what will happen on the way.

They are a group of restless bombs, and instead of this, they simply leave them in Tongguan and take away all the troops in their hands.

The 5,000 soldiers left behind had little to do with them.

In arranging some henchmen and deputies to secretly guard, it should not be so easy for these people to make trouble.

Liu Xin could understand Su Qi'an's arrangement, but as the soldiers gradually assembled, Liu Xin's tense nerves still did not relax at all, but he felt a little uneasy.

He said to Su Qi'an again, "Commander-in-chief, I think I should stay this time, with me, at least I can deter this group of powerful people from messing around."

"There aren't many lieutenants by your side, and it's not cost-effective to draw a few people to stay, let me come."

Liu Xin's attitude was very firm, and he knew what this counterattack meant to Su Qi'an.

Su Qi'an has to take a big risk, 35,000 soldiers, the size of which is also a legion.

In addition to the commander-in-chief, the most important thing for a corps is to be able to undertake the commander-in-chief and communicate with the adjutant generals of various armies.

Without a deputy general who is familiar with various arms, Su Qi'an has a lot to worry about.

Therefore, this time, leaving him to replace a few henchmen and lieutenant generals will be of great use to Su Qi'an, and the winning rate of the counterattack can also increase.

Su Qi'an was not a hesitant person, seeing that Liu Xin was so sincere, he said seriously.

"Okay, this time, Commander Liu will be in charge of Tongguan, remember, no matter what happens, you must stick to help, I will come to support as soon as possible."

"By the way, this is for you, it will be useful at a critical moment."

Su Qi'an said, greeted, and Su Yong behind him hugged a small box.

Liu Xin took it and believed that he could feel the weight of the box, and although it was not opened, a faint sulfur emanated.

Liu Xin looked at Su Qi'an with some surprise, as the deputy commander of the forbidden army, there were some things he had come into contact with.

This thing is also available in the Imperial City, but there are definitely not many of them, and they are basically used only as a last resort.

The production process of this thing is very difficult, it is more difficult than ordinary black powder, but the power is several times that of black powder, and it is really rare because it is rare, so it is precious.

To be able to give him something so precious is not only to value him, but also to treat him as his own.

Because only the royal family is qualified to use this thing, obviously Liu Xin thought that this thing was applied for by Su Qi'an as a royal family.

If he knew that this thing was privately refined by Su Qi'an, his jaw dropped in fear.

He also understood now what Su Qi'an's secret weapon was, and why he had the confidence to attack Juyong Pass.

With this thing, it can really be taken down if you don't settle in Yongguan.

Liu Xin took a deep breath, glanced at Su Qi'an solemnly, and said.

"If the commander-in-chief puts it down, his subordinates must guard Tongguan, and if you are locked up, you will die."

Liu Xin's loyalty, Su Qi'an just smiled indifferently and said, "Hey, this is a serious matter of Commander Liu, Commander Liu is much more important than Tongguan, remember, life is better than anything else!"

"Alright, it's getting late, let's go."

"The whole army obeys the order, follows the command of Ben, and attacks!"

The next moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves shook the ground, and the mighty team, shrouded in the night, quickly rushed out of Tongguan and rushed towards the darkness ahead.

On the wall of Tongguan, after a while, there were bursts of congratulatory voices, "We are looking forward to the triumph of the commander-in-chief!" Raise my might!"
