Chapter 623: Decisive Battle (Part II)

"All the way down the army, Qian Ming is the main general, Tang Fu, Wei Bobo, Ji Zhikai, An Pei, and An Tai are the deputy generals, Yi Po and Yuan Ji are the left and right vanguards, leading the sixth and seventh army corps, followed by the army, and pulled out the village in the afternoon. From the south road, bypassing the Changsong Forest and escaping into Mianling, he was responsible for waiting for the opportunity to meet the middle road, and attacked the rear of Banxuegang in detail. To conquer Banxuegang, that is, the whole army will return to Mianling and go out of the snow mountain, and attack the left flank of the royal camp from north to east!

All the way to the main army, Tang Chuan was the commander-in-chief, and Tang Xiaotang was the deputy marshal, leading 500 elites to sit in the Xiting camp and deploy the three armies. The rest of the soldiers were all partial troops, led by me and Mo Xian, and went north to Merlin. ”

"Wait..."

Xia Xun said this sentence quite hastily.

Especially in the last few sentences, Xia Xun seemed to deliberately ignore some things, and the speed of his speech became inexplicably much faster, and he didn't even leave a gap for the generals to answer the orders of the generals all the way down the army, and directly arranged the two groups of people who sat in the main camp and went north to Meilin. And when Xia Xun finished speaking, Tang Xiaotang couldn't hold back any longer, and took two steps forward to put the words down.

Xia Xun obviously expected that Tang Xiaotang would object.

didn't wait for her to speak first, and immediately said sternly: "I said in advance that today I am handsome and you are the general." The military order is like a mountain, how can it be child's play, it is useless for you to object!"

"I have no objection, only doubts. ”

"Your doubts don't exist. ”

"How do you know if you didn't listen?"

"If you don't listen, you know. ”

"Hmph. ”

Seeing Xia Xun's decision, Tang Xiaotang didn't bother to lay out the nonsense, and directly laid out the carriage and horse: "Other things are up to you, but the partial army must be led by me, and you and your senior brother are in Xiting." ”

"No, I can't. ”

"Why not?"

Xia Xun strongly rejected Tang Xiaotang's request in an unquestionable tone. Tang Xiaotang didn't dare to give in, and asked with a dumbfounded gaze. Then, Xia Xun put down the brush, stood up and looked at Tang Xiaotang, and said in the middle: "The task of the partial army is to defend not to attack, and my role in going to the north corner is to contain Yu Youran, ensure the peace of the rear, and take care of the front." You and Tang Chuan are sitting in Xiting, you can adjust troops to attack the royal family in the front, and you can send generals to aid Meilin in the back, both advance and retreat, which is the most suitable. ”

"How can it fit?"

Tang Xiaotang did not back down, and retorted to Xia Xun: "My Tang Sect's feather feather archery skills are unparalleled, and I can resist the enemy for ten miles from a distance. The Tianluo trap technique can be drawn as a prison, which is the most suitable for playing defensively. And the plotter is good at attacking, and you are better at military strategy, so you should sit on the East Third Road and defeat the royal family in one fell swoop with the skill of thunder. Fight back to North Point, so it is appropriate. ”

“......”

Tang Xiaotang's words are actually quite reasonable.

Qu Long was an enemy before and after the battle, and he needed to break the situation quickly.

Xia Xun is good at strategy, and it is most suitable to send troops to attack the East Examination Room. And the Tang Gate is good at guarding, and it is more appropriate for Tang Xiaotang, Tang Chuan and others to garrison Meilin to reject Chunyang. It's just that in these accurate statements, Xia Xun smelled something different from them.

It is the taste of sour vinegar, and it is also Tang Xiaotang's vigilance.

She didn't want Xia Xun to have too much contact with Yu Youran's crazy woman anymore. After all, Xia Xun has now planted a love seed in Yu Youran's heart, who knows that the love fruit that will bear after the love flower blooms will be kindness, friendship and other messy feelings? Therefore, with Tang Xiaotang's vigilant and suspicious character. Xia Xun led his troops to fight against Yu Youran, and she would definitely not be able to agree.

Xia Xun said: "Don't stumble on me." ”

"No one is stumbling on you, I'm just seeking truth from facts. Tang Xiaotang decisively said: "Garrison Merlin, our Tangjiabao is indeed more suitable than you." ”

"If you don't understand Yu Youran, you will suffer. ”

"Do you understand?"

"Uh..."

Xia Xun was speechless for a while, thinking about it.

Tang Xiaotang took advantage of the situation to recount and said, "You also don't know that crazy woman. In this case, I have the means to compete with it, and no matter how much I suffer, you will not suffer. ”

"You are competitive and easily subdued. ”

"You are soft-hearted, and you are more likely to be defeated. ”

"You're going to listen to me!"

"You're the one who should listen to me!"

"Tsk..."

Seeing that the two were arguing very inappropriately, Tang Chuan hurriedly walked a few steps forward to block between the two, acting as a boss: "Don't quarrel, there is something to discuss." Are you two making a fuss at this time and not letting others see the joke?"

"Whoever messes with him, I'm just telling the truth. ”

"But your truth doesn't make sense. ”

"Anyway, I'm going to go on the North Route. ”

"It's unreasonable. ”

“......”

Neither of them backed down.

The surrounding leaders all have the mentality of watching the show, and Tang Chuan, a peacemaker, is not easy to be. But with Tang Chuan's understanding of Tang Xiaotang, Tang Xiaotang was iron-hearted again this time. After thinking about this, I'm afraid I have to follow her wishes.

Tang Chuan glanced at Tang Xiaotang angrily, and Tang Xiaotang glared back. Tang Chuan reluctantly turned sideways and looked at Xia Xun again, and persuaded: "What Xiao Tang said is not unreasonable. You are Qu Long's most capable person in charge of the sword, and you should be responsible for the siege of the city. Moreover, the royal family has suffered countless losses under you, and you can play a more deterrent role in sitting in Xiting, and the three-way attack will inevitably get twice the result with half the effort. I see, it's up to you to do this, right?"

Xia Xun couldn't help frowning.

What Tang Chuan thinks, he knows.

The heart of protecting calves, everyone has it, Tang Xiaotang and Xia Xun's matter is already raw rice cooked and matured, and they are almost waiting for the national examination to end to see the elders. Tang Xiaotang was afraid that Xia Xun would have variables against Yu Youran. Tang Chuan, as Xia Xun's half brother-in-law, how can he not look at Tang Xiaotang?

Xia Xun thought about it and felt that this matter could not be compromised, but then looked at the helpless Dushao and Fang Qingqiu, the sneering Xiahou, Lei Meng, and the fat monk, the disdainful Bai Xiu, and the Mo Xian and the little monk who were stunned like wood. Xia Xun suddenly had the illusion of being "isolated".

Tang Chuan understands Tang Xiaotang, why didn't Xia Xun understand?

At the moment, Xia Xun knew that he probably didn't have much choice but to compromise.

"Look at this..."

Xia Xun took a breath, looked at Tang Xiaotang again, and said cautiously: "It's not impossible for you to replace me in the north to guard Chunyang, but the manpower needs to be adjusted according to my arrangement." ”

"How to adjust?" Tang Xiaotang asked.

Xia Xun said: "The five hundred elites guarding Xiting are all transferred north, plus the original men and horses, a total of 2,000 people are stationed in Meilin. In addition, Du Shao, Fang Qingqiu, Tang Fu, Tang Zhen and all the Tang Sect disciples were all transferred to the northern line. Tang Chuan is the main general, you, Tang Fu, Tang Zhen, and Fang Qingqiu are the deputy generals, and Du Shao is the overseer. Everything must be discussed with the Overseer, and then it will be carried out by the Lord, and you are not allowed to transfer troops without permission. ”

Du Shao and Fang Qingqiu pondered for a moment when they heard this, they should have heard what Xia Xun meant by asking them to contain Tang Xiaotang. And several Tang sects, including Tang Chuan, were a little embarrassed, because in addition to making Du Shao and Fang Qingqiu contain Tang Xiaotang, Xia Xun also invisibly deprived Tang Xiaotang of the power to transfer troops.

"You don't believe me. Tang Xiaotang was slightly angry.

"I believe it. ”

"Then why do you want to go alone?"

"Just in case. ”

"At the end of the day, they just don't trust me. ”

"Whatever you want. ”

Xia Xunsu said: "If you insist on going north, you must obey my arrangement, otherwise you will stay by my side and sit in Xiting with me." ”

“......”

Xia Xun said very resolutely, leaving no room for Tang Xiaotang to bargain. In addition to containing and cutting power, Xia Xun also enriched the deviant path of 1,500 people to 2,000 people, which also showed his concern about Tang Xiaotang.

"Yes. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Xiaotang nodded with a slight anger just now.

Xia Xun then looked at Dushao and asked, "What's the weather like in Merlin?"

Du Shao shook his head lightly and said, "It's not optimistic." ”

"Midsummer is the rainy season, last month in the southwest two places exposed to the sun without rain, the recent sudden change in wind direction will accumulate in the southwest two examination rooms rain clouds blowing north. Since yesterday, there has been a light rain in the north examination room, and the light rain will turn into a torrential rain within two days at most, or it will rain for three or four consecutive days, and more than half a month. ”

"Sasha..."

While Dushao spoke, Xia Xun sat back on the stool, picked up a brush and drew a few circles in the northwest of the yellow paper map.

When Dushao spoke, Xia Xun continued to say in a more cautious tone: "Since the weather is bad, you have to be more careful. There are two strange people beside Yu Youran, who can listen to all directions and see thousands of miles, and she will definitely be able to take the lead in the majestic rain. Just in case, I think you should bring the little master and Bajie on this trip. ”

"Amitabha, the little monk is willing to go. ”

"That's... Well, as long as you don't let me rush ahead, I can follow. ”

The little monk and the fat monk responded before and after, but the contrast between the two was very great. The little monk Mu was stunned as if nothing happened, and the fat monk's face was panicked as if he was on the guillotine.

Xia Xun nodded slightly towards the little monk in thanks.

Then he looked at Tang Xiaotang again and asked with a soft smile, "What's the matter?"

"What?"

"Can I compromise on this?"

"Hmph..."

Tang Xiaotang's face was full of displeasure, he hugged his hands, glanced at the sky with a side face, and said stupidly: "Everything is for you to die, what can I say?"

"Hehe..."

Tang Xiaotang's temperament is like fire, if you want to let her go, you can only let her be free, if you want to drag her in your arms and take care of her, this will make the fire extinguish, and even burn yourself.

Xia Xun sighed helplessly, stood up again, walked to Tang Xiaotang's side, leaned over slightly, his posture was a little like he was apologizing, and said in a voice that only the two of them heard: "Don't blame me for tying your hands and feet, it's just that Yu Youran is too sharp, so I plan to go to the northern line to balance her in person." Now that you insist on fighting for me, of course I must first protect you, otherwise if you make a mistake, I will regret it. Remember, you don't need to play with Yu leisurely when you go north, you just need to clear the wilderness, draw the ground as a prison, and hold on to it for four days at most, and I will be able to win a big victory. ”

“......”

At an angle that Xia Xun couldn't see, the corners of Tang Xiaotang's small mouth curled up a little, showing extreme contempt, as if he didn't hear Xia Xun's words in his heart at all. Du Shao, who was standing a few feet away from Tang Xiaotang, saw this wisp of laughter, and his expression suddenly became ugly. Although he didn't know Tang Xiaotang as well as Xia Xun and Tang Chuan, Tang Xiaotang's reaction really told him that she simply disdained Yu Youran's crazy woman...

Despise the enemy is never necessarily a good thing.

Not to mention that the enemy is so strong?

"Okay, I promise, I'll give you a big victory in four days. ”

"What do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything. ”

“......”
