Chapter 608: Be confident

Guo Wei asked Ning An in private, it turned out that it was because Ning An had drunk a drop of unicorn blood, so her martial arts would improve rapidly. This made Guo Wei very jealous, because he also wanted to taste what the unicorn blood tasted like, if he drank the unicorn blood, would he be able to prolong his life?

Zong Xin had long said that Guo Wei only had three years of heaven, and Guo Wei was also thinking about giving up the throne to Chai Rong after two and a half years, so that he could live a few more years? But Zong Xin said that it was useless to do so, since he ascended the throne and became emperor, Guo Wei's life began to count down, and there was almost no way to reverse it.

In addition to being sad, Guo Wei also saw his hope for the future, and saw Tianya's martial arts and mental growth little by little, which was the most gratifying thing for Guo Wei. Two sons, Guo Xin's fate is good, he met such a master as Zongxin, but it's a pity that Dong'er died too early, if Dong'er and Le'an were alive, he would have no regrets in his life.

The more he thought about these things, the more Guo Wei hated Murong Yanchao. It's just that Murong Yanchao's position is near Datang, he can attack and retreat, and he can't do anything about him. Zong Xin started from going to the Khitan, integrating the Khitan and then letting the Khitan lend troops to the Northern Han, all he did was not to defeat the Northern Han and the Tang Dynasty, all Zong Xin's goals were to make himself able to kill Murong Yanchao with his own hands.

Guo Wei is the person who can best understand Zong Xin's schemes, as long as this battle lasts, then it is not clear what the relationship between the Northern Han and the Khitan will be, but there is no doubt that the relationship between Murong Yanchao and the Tang Dynasty will be completely broken.

As long as Murong Yanchao can't retreat to the Tang Dynasty, it will be easy to kill him. Therefore, the real goal of this battle is to kill Murong Yanchao. Zong Xin's game of chess was too big, and the ultimate goal was just to kill Murong Yanchao? As for the other results, they were all just accessories.

Guo Wei borrowed alcohol to kill his sorrows, and during this time, he drunk himself almost every day, and several times he was supported by Song Yan to go back to the room to rest. It is true that Guo Wei does not have the appearance of an emperor, let alone an emperor's shelf, after a few days of getting along, Song Yan has completely surrendered, and now Song Yan understands why Zongxin supported Guo Wei all the way to the throne and became the emperor, and he will do his best to help Guo Wei when he is in danger.

In fact, Guo Wei is an ordinary person with an upright personality, and the biggest difference from ordinary people is ...... After Guo Wei became the emperor, he was still such a person, and his personality did not change because of his status. Just like a street fighter clinking glasses and drinking with anyone, being trampled on or being hit, as long as the other party says humility, it will be fine.

In Song Yan's eyes, this is not an emperor at all, he is simply a bandit who has just been recruited from the mountains, and his personality is bold and uninhibited. Song Yan's observation of Guo Wei did not start in the past few days, long before Zong Xin came to Weizhou, Song Yan had already paid attention to Guo Wei's words and deeds, because Song Yan was very curious about Guo Wei.

Guo Wei is very thrifty, usually he eats alone with three dishes and one soup, plus a large pot of rice, and three dishes are two meat and one vegetable, which is still Guo Wei's special request, because he is afraid that he will not be able to eat it and waste it. Since it was a time of war, there was a shortage of food, and if food was wasted at this time, it should really be punished by God.

Song Yan is also helpless, not to mention that he became the emperor, even the current Song Yan can't do it. Even if he is not the owner of the Song Valve, even if he does not have this good martial arts, he will not be able to be so kind and thrifty as Guo Wei. What's more, Guo Wei is still the emperor now, and he has peerless martial arts, he can live like an ordinary person, the emperor is just a job for Guo Wei, and there is no other meaning.

Zong Xin was able to find a strange thing like Guo Wei to assist him in becoming the emperor, which can be regarded as his ability. But...... Guo Wei turned out to be like this after becoming the emperor, which can be regarded as a kind of ability. It is estimated that even Zongxin will be difficult to do, because there are too many things that can be done after becoming emperor, and no one will inevitably swell.

Song Yan has never admired many people in his life, including Zhao Jing, who is also one of the four major valves, and Zong Xin has never admired him. But Song Yan really admired Zong Xin and Guo Wei, because they were not mortals.

It has been nearly a month since the last big break of the Northern Han army, the Northern Han has not made any moves, and Weizhou has also not made any moves, on the surface it is calm, but everyone knows that this is the calm before the storm, the undercurrent of the Northern Han side is surging, and the next big war is coming. The strange thing was that Zong Xin didn't have a trace of nervousness, and hardly did anything useful, did he really think that these forces in Weizhou City alone could resist the second round of attacks by the Northern Han and Khitan?

Zong Xin has been standing on the city wall east of Weizhou City in recent days, but in fact, the Northern Han Dynasty is in the west of Weizhou, and it is by no means the Northern Han that Zong Xin is waiting for.

Zongxin's life is good, a person on the east side of Weizhou, set up a table of banquets, a person eats and drinks, Youyun Eighteen rides under the city wall and sits in a row, nineteen wolves drool around a huge black bull, usually they also like to play, but whenever they see this black cow, they can't help but want to drool.

Guo Wei and Song Yan came to Zongxin's side, the two had already discussed, and Song Yan also made his position clear to Guo Wei, as long as Guo Wei always maintained this character, Song Yan would desperately defend Weizhou for him and prevent the invasion of the Northern Han Dynasty. Guo Wei was also very moved, although he didn't know what was going on, but since Song Yan could say it, it proved that he could do it.

The two of them didn't talk much nonsense, and sat down to eat. While eating, while looking at the east like Zong Xin, the two actually had some feelings, they felt that Zong Xin was waiting for Zhao Kuangyin. Zongxin had been waiting for a long time, but he didn't see anyone coming from the east.

"Are you waiting for Zhao Kuangyin?" Guo Wei's personality is relatively straightforward, and he asked directly without any warning.

Zong Xin nodded and said, "Yes, it doesn't take so much time for me to let Zhao Kuangyin do it." Liu Chong had already assembled his troops, and the movement was very obvious, they were preparing to storm Weizhou. Zhao Kuangyin hasn't come yet, I don't know what this grandson has done, I want to wait for him to come before starting a war. ”

Guo Wei and Song Yan both had a question in their hearts, is Zhao Kuangyin really so important? They must wait until he comes to start a war, could it be that if Zhao Kuangyin does not come, this battle will not be lost? For Guo Wei and Song Yan, what they are most afraid of is this matter, after all, there is a huge difference in the strength of the two sides, and it is all up to Zong Xin's strange tricks to support the first siege, if even Zong Xin thinks that this battle will be lost, Song Yan and Guo Wei will have no choice.

Song Yan said: "Uncle, if Zhao Kuangyin doesn't come, will we lose?"

"No, it doesn't matter if Zhao Kuangyin comes here or not, I just think that I am working hard here, but he is enjoying my money in Kaifeng, and there is a little psychological imbalance. So the next time we fight, we must let him be the vanguard, rush to the front line and slash and kill the enemy, so that he can be hurt a little so that my mood can be slightly better. ”

Guo Wei and Song Yan were stunned, just for this kind of trivial matter, Zong Xin waited on the city wall for several days, and he was really free enough. However, judging from Zongxin's idle state, this battle should not be lost, although there is no reason, there is no reason, they just think so.

However, Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin are really interesting, they are very good friends with each other, but most of the time they are bickering, always trying to make each other more uncomfortable. But when encountering real benefits, they will always think about each other, and this kind of relationship can basically be described as loving and killing each other.

Guo Wei is quite envious of the relationship between Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin, and once upon a time he had a few such good brothers. But youth is gone, and when you get older, you don't have this passion anymore. Because he has too many things to do after getting married and having children, and his good brothers have died almost the same, this feeling can only be experienced when he is older.

Guo Wei has watched his good friend die in front of his eyes countless times, and for a person like Guo Wei who has been on the battlefield all his life, this heart-rending experience is by no means the first time. And every time Guo Wei feels lucky, he is glad that the person who died is not himself.

The war is never a good thing, but Guo Wei has realized something deeper than ordinary people. He knows that there will be a sublimation of feelings after the baptism of war, and he knows what a real friendship between life and death is, that is, when a group of enemies surrounds him, he only cares about the enemy in front of him, and hands over the rest of his mind to another person. At that time, the scruples no longer existed, and as a veteran of the battlefield, Guo Wei was very aware of the burden of this kind of affection.

Song Yan is okay, I feel that these two people are quite interesting. Now Zongxin calls himself father-in-law, if ...... Zhao Kuangyin also called his father-in-law, which is not bad.

It's a pity that Qianqian's girl is too ignorant, she is so old, she has no idea of starting a family at all, and she has been used to her since she was a child, and she is used to stinky problems, and now men are afraid when they see her, this girl's vision is quite high, and her martial arts are good, and she has been disabled several times.

Guo Wei asked: "Zong Xin, when do you say Liu Chong will attack? I estimate that it will be soon, it should be the last day or two, we have not prepared anything, is this really good?"

"It's okay, it's okay, I deliberately played it for the Northern Han scouts, I didn't even recover the corpses on the battlefield, just to kill Liu Chong in the next step. These are all trivial things, the key is when Zhao Kuangyin comes, I want to ask him a very important thing. ”

For Guo Wei and Song Yan, it doesn't matter if Zhao Kuangyin comes or not, they are more concerned about how to resist the next round of attacks of the Northern Han. The last time they attacked the city in the fog, Weizhou's side was almost unable to hold it. Obviously, the combat effectiveness of the Northern Han soldiers is still very strong, and the number of Weizhou defenders was originally limited, if the last battle dragged on for a longer time, I was afraid that the Northern Han soldiers would soon pour into the battlements of the city wall, and only wait for them to open the city gate after entering the city, and it would be useless for anyone to come at that time.

Fortunately, Zong Xin had already planned to kill Liu Chong last time and was caught off guard, but what should he do this time? Zong Xin's iron cavalry has no power in the city, and the iron cavalry must run in the wilderness, and it must form a charge after reaching a certain number to be powerful, and the cavalry in the city is not as useful as the infantry.
