Chapter 116: Listen to the Wind
Xuanyuan Ce stared at this proud protΓ©gΓ© in the past, with a lot of thoughts. Back then, most of the students in the academy were conformist, the academy was lifeless, with a sour smell of rot, and Xuanyuan Ce, who was free and easy by nature and was not bound by the world, became a maverick outlier in the academy. After that, he served as a teacher in the academy, and his life was still dull and boring, knowing that he met Li Mixian, who left his hometown to study at an early age, this son was proud of his talents and was rejected by his fellow disciples, but he was very interested in Xuanyuan Ce, and the master and apprentice were familiar at first sight. Guo Yuan, who was younger and entered, was even more deviant and imaginative, just like Xuanyuan Ce back then, he was regarded as an outlier by the academy, but he won Xuanyuan Ce's blue eyes, and even Song Jinyang, who was an old pedant, could make Xuanyuan Ce secretly pay attention. Li Mixian and Guo Yuan, the two proud sons of the sky, have more or less the shadow of Xuanyuan Ce, so that after teaching for many years, Xuanyuan Ce, who can be called the peach and plum all over the world, only remembers these two people, and regards them as heirs of the mantle.
It is said that literati are light, Li Mixian and Guo Yuan can't escape this reason, they have never dealt with each other, earlier Li Mixian relied on his identity as a senior brother in the academy, and made it difficult for this new junior brother, and indeed relied on the unique advantage of getting started first, Li Mixian in the early stage can be said to have taken the top points, and Guo Yuan gradually regained his disadvantage after his full wings. And the fighting method between the two has also become Xuanyuan Ce's most anticipated pastime every day, but as Guo Yuan gets older, he has been able to stabilize Li Mixian in turn, and he has a sense of "both Shengyu and He Shengliang".
Pulling his thoughts back, Xuanyuan Ce sighed: "You and Guo Xiaozi seem to be destined enemies, after he made trouble in Qingyang City, he has surpassed you too much, if you want to surpass him before you die, you can only help the monarch achieve the hegemony of dominating the world as a strategist." But both of you are the most important disciples of the old man, and it is not appropriate to help anyone, Xiao Wenyu, do you say that the old man is reasonable? β
"Master is right, but there is one thing that your old man said wrong." Li Mixian sighed, "Senior Brother Guo is a strange person in the world, and the disciple is afraid that he will not be able to catch up for the rest of his life, and if he loses to Senior Brother Guo, the disciple is convinced." The master is right, the disciple does want to assist the emperor as a scribe to win the world, but the master seems to have forgotten one thing, the disciple and Feng Jingquan have no grudges, although the disciple is also devoted to An Murong, but also knows that she and Guo Yuan are in love with each other, and they can't force it, let alone resent the two monarchs of Liang State because of this, the disciple only needs to take refuge in Feng Jingquan and join forces with Qu Huaier to deal with a Song Jinyang, wouldn't it be easy to capture and win the world. Regardless of whether the master believes it or not, the reason why the disciple defected to the King of Chu and became an enemy of the Liang State was because the death of Senior Brother Guo was closely related to Feng Jingquan, and the disciple had to avenge this revenge! β
Xuanyuan Ceqi said: "As far as the old man knows, you are at odds with that Guo element, but now you want to avenge him?" β
Li Mixian nodded and said, "Whether the master believes it or not, whether Senior Brother Guo regards his brother as a friend or not, the only close friends of the disciple in this life are Song Jinyang and Guo Yuan. β
Xuanyuan Ce smiled: "It's the old man who looks down on you!" Well, in this case, the old man will hand over the previous spy roster to you, but these people have not been in contact for a long time, and it is inevitable that they will lose control, and now how much loyalty is left, the old man is not sure, as for how to revitalize, it depends on you to go around in person. β
Li Mi first said, "Thank you, Master! β
Xuanyuan Ce waved his hand, signaled Li Mi to leave the wine first, and then issued an eviction order, when the two separated, Xuanyuan Ce said casually: "Xiao Wenyu, it is very dangerous to go to Liang Country here, but don't die, the old man has a breeze on his sleeves, and I expect you to bring some good wine to honor me in the future." β

In Qingyang City, due to the stalemate between Liang and Chu, the emperor Qu Huaier gradually moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and made every effort to give advice to Feng Jingquan.
The master and apprentice stood on the top of the palace, dispersed the palace maids and eunuchs, Feng Jingquan looked ahead, and sighed: "This great river and mountain, when will it be in my hands!" β
Qu Huaier said with a smile: "Now that the war between the two countries is tight, although the Chu State has chosen to stand still recently, it has actually been secretly accumulating strength, the old man got the news a few days ago, and Sikong Li advised Chen Xiong to promote twelve generals to garrison the twelve cities of Chu State, including Ma Gui. Ye Qingya and other good generals. Compared with the lack of military generals of the Liang State, the Chu State can be said to be full of talents, and now the only people available in His Majesty's hands are Li Jian and Wei Qing. Although there is no Liao State to worry about now, Liang State no longer has to worry about the enemy on the back, but Yongzhou and Chu State are adjacent to each other, if Chu State moves south, just relying on Wei Qing and the 200,000 defenders who are now stationed in the Golden Wolf City, they can't stop the tiger and wolf division of Chu State, once the Golden Wolf City is lost, the Yongzhou defense line will inevitably collapse, and the horseshoe of Chu State will go south, as long as Liangzhou is broken, then hundreds of thousands of Chu troops will go straight to Qingyang City, and the soldiers will come to the city, Your Majesty will really be isolated! β
Feng Jingquan frowned and asked, "What does the emperor mean that the battle of Liang and Chu is the key to the Yongliang battlefield?" β
Qu Huaier nodded and said, "Yes, the key to victory or defeat is in Yongzhou and Liangzhou. Although Wei Qing said that he was a rare general, he was compared to Li Jian. There is still some heat left, so as the most suitable candidate for the first battlefield in Yongzhou, it is this king of Liang Guo! In the early years, the four kingdoms were established, and there were three other generals in the Liang State, His Majesty sealed Li Jian in Qingzhou, in order to weaken its military power, but in recent years, the war continued, and the remaining three generals died in battle, Li Jian as the only remaining general today, is the desire of the army, half of the reason why the army chose to enlist, is to have the opportunity to kill the enemy on the battlefield with the victorious general of Da Liang one day, so Li Jian was arranged in Yongzhou, and the morale of the generals is far from being comparable to Wei Qing, and there is a more important point, Li Jian has a father who is on the big list. β
"Your Majesty, don't forget, Sikong Li is not only the god of the Great Chu Army, but also one of the best martial arts masters, you can't speculate with common sense, if this person personally leads the troops to attack the city, the battle of Golden Wolf City is the best example, if it weren't for Ye Baiye's death and finally hardened once, if it weren't for Zhan Yunfei's desperate blocking, if it weren't for the 100,000 Jingzhou army who were not afraid of death, if it weren't for Sikong Li who despised my Liang soldiers too much, now the Golden Wolf City may have already fallen into the hands of the Chu State, and Sikong Li, as the world's recognized number one general, is both wise and brave, and dares to face his own mistakes, After the siege of the city, I will no longer despise the opponent, put Li Jian in Yongzhou, Li Xian will naturally not sit idly by, with Li Xian here, it can also add a barrier to my beam. β
Feng Jingquan suddenly realized and nodded: "The emperor is really a god, and the whole child must follow the emperor's teachings." β
I listened to Qu Huaier continue: "My Liang has a vast territory, and it is far from enough to rely on Li Jian and Wei Qing alone, Chen Xiong is determined to boldly use new people and promote twelve generals, it depends on whether His Majesty dares to boldly appoint them." Although the military generals of the Liang State are not accepted, there are also many talented people who have not met them, such as young generals such as Jiang Zongbao, or veterans of a hundred battles who have followed Li Jian for a long time such as Fan Yuhu and Wei Dazhuang, as long as His Majesty dares to delegate power to these people, he may not be able to compete with the twelve generals of the Chu State. β
