Pei Zilie didn't believe that he was the only one who had such thoughts. Xiao Shilian was reckless, but he definitely couldn't see anything, let alone Chen Zhishen, Dai Cai, Tang Yishun and others under Li Xingchen.
Chen Zhishen has always been rough and refined, otherwise Xiao Mohe would not have given him the task of training Xiao's soldiers and horses. Those who simply think that Chen Zhishen is just a rough guy will only suffer a loss. Pei Zilie does not believe that Chen Zhishen is like Li Xingchen.
As the number one confidant under his command, he would have no idea in his mind.
In particular, compared to Cao Zhong's caution, Chen Zhishen has always dared to think and act.
Not to mention Dai Cai, Tang Yishun and others, they are surrendered generals and have long been inseparable from Li Xinchen. If Li Xinchen moves forward, of course they will also benefit from it, so they must not only have such thoughts, but also
Stronger than the others.
However, coming from a family like Xu Deyan, there are some joints that cannot be circumvented. Pei Zilie just took this opportunity to give Xu Deyan some insight, at least to give Xu Deyan another psychological preparation, otherwise it would be embarrassing if something suddenly happened.
As for whether Xu Deyan will tell the truth, Pei Zilie is not worried.
After spending so many days with Xu Deyan, Pei Zilie can be sure that this is definitely not a person who speaks out. Xu Ling put Xu Deyan here in Bashu, which was more or less a test. Pei Zilie did not believe that Xu Deyan did not understand Xu Ling's intention.
Therefore, it is very likely that Xu Deyan died in his stomach or only told Xu Ling.
And Xu Ling, an old fox, would not talk nonsense without concrete evidence, and Pei Zilie's words just now were actually ambiguous and very implicit. Xu Deyan could not prove anything without anyone else hearing him.
If it was simply to make the court feel dissatisfied and suspicious of Li Xingchen, Xu Deyan would not even need to speak. The court's suspicion of Li Xingchen had never been less.
What's more, the existence of Xu Deyan has ensured the Xu family's position in this new group. Once Xu Ling makes a move, it will end up cutting off a new path for the Xu family. As long as Xu Ling still has some brains, he can still start from the Xu family.
If you think about it from the Lord's perspective, then you will definitely not do this.
Thinking of this, Pei Zilie turned his head slightly and looked at Xu Deyan beside him. He had already said and done everything that should be said and done. In fact, Pei Zilie could not completely decide how Xu Deyan would judge next.
Xu Deyan gently rubbed his chin. Before, he simply thought that Li Xingchen was a minion of Dong Gong and Xiao Mohe. At least it was far from the time when his wings were full, so logically he wouldn't have any inappropriate thoughts.
But now he has understood that whether Li Xingchen has such thoughts or not, at least Pei Zilie has already had it, and a person like Pei Zilie who has always been cautious and steady has begun to consider this aspect, let alone others?
The Xu family is not the loyal ministers and filial sons of Nanchen. The Xu family is an aristocratic family, and the aristocratic family needs to continue and survive, so Xu Deyan must help Xu Ling and help the entire Xu family make a judgment.
Following Li Xingchen is not a bad thing at this stage, so Xu Deyan plans to keep what he heard today in his stomach for the time being.
This is the secret and idea of this group, and although he is from the Xu family, at least he is now a part of this group.
"It's almost night, let's go." Pei Zilie said calmly.
Xu Deyan came back to his senses at this time, hesitated for a moment, and did not move his steps in a hurry, but whispered: "General, there is something unclear about this subordinate."
Pei Zilie paused: "Let's talk."
"I dare to ask the general how much confidence he has?" Xu Deyan said in a deep voice. He did not say why, but he believed that Pei Zilie could understand what he meant.
Pei Zilie couldn't help laughing, and pointed to the sky above: "You shouldn't ask this question to someone, but to God."
"Ah?" Xu Deyan subconsciously raised his head and looked at the sky.
And Pei Zilie said leisurely: "Three hundred years of troubled times, it's time to end, it depends on who God decides to give this task to."
After a pause, Pei Zilie said softly: "No matter who we leave it to, we still have to fight and win this battle, in order to end this troubled world as soon as possible, and for ourselves to survive..."
Xu Deyan nodded solemnly.
Although Pei Zilie did not say those three words clearly, what is the difference between not saying it? At least it means that Pei Zilie already has a quite clear answer to the question that Xu Deyan just asked, and he himself is also working hard to achieve this goal.
With.
"This trip to Bashu was not in vain." Xu Deyan murmured.
"Ah, no, I'm just a little worried." Xu Deyan hurriedly smiled and said, "I believe General Zheng and the others can complete the mission."

"It was almost dark. This old guy hit us twice and found that we had no intention of getting out of the way. Instead, we stopped peacefully from the valley." Cao Zhong stepped forward in surprise.
Li Xingchen walked over.
Li Xinchen raised his eyebrows. Yuchi Jiong's reaction was beyond his expectation. Cao Zhong hurriedly described it to Li Xinchen in detail. It turned out that after Yuchi Jiong was trapped in the valley, he organized troops to break out twice, but they failed.
Cao Zhong led his soldiers and horses to resolutely fight back.
After all, there is only one road in and out of the valley, and now that Li Xingchen has blocked the road and used crossbowmen to shoot at the positions, Yuchi Jiong will not be able to leave easily. The terrain here is more dangerous than that at Sunjiamen before.
If Yuchijiong attacked by force, he would have to pay at least hundreds or even thousands of people.
But Li Xingchen didn't expect that Yuchi Jiong, who had always been a bit stubborn, would give up so easily.
"This old guy has figured it out." Li Xingchen couldn't help but whisper.
Cao Zhong and Du Qi both looked over in surprise. Just when they couldn't figure out Yuchi Jiong's unusual actions, they didn't know what Li Xingchen meant.
And Li Xingchen said lightly: "Since a certain person has blocked this valley, he naturally has no intention of letting him out, and he has made preparations to block him at all levels later. Yuchijiong knew that if he continued to fight like this, he would only lose his troops.
, it’s better not to fight.”
"But the food and grass carried by Yu Chijiong can't last a few days..." Cao Zhong couldn't help but ask, "If we break through, we may be able to join Wei Xiaokuan... and the troops and horses will be consumed too much."
, food and grass will naturally last longer, after all, there are fewer people opening their mouths to eat...Although this method is cruel, Yuchi has been on the battlefield for most of his life, so it stands to reason that he would not have thought of this method at this time, let alone
