Hearing Zou Qiang call Li Xingchen by name, Tang Zhong, Zheng Kaiyuan and others subconsciously took a step forward, but Pei Zilie reached out to stop him.
Pei Zilie did not deny what Zou Qiang said.
Zou Qiang seemed to understand and murmured: "In other words, everything that happened today was already within Li Xingchen's expectation... What did he expect when he went to Langzhong..."
If according to what Pei Zilie said, Li Xingchen was in Langzhong, but he had planned how to attack Mianzhu Pass, which means that Langzhong and Mianzhu Pass have long been in Li Xingchen's eyes. In other words, the entire Bashu war situation now depends on Li Xingchen
within the control of.
So how big of a trap did Li Xingchen lay, how big of a trap did he dig, and how many people did he want to trap into this trap?
What is the plan of this young gangster general from Nanchen?
Before, Zou Qiang naively thought that Pei Zilie would not attack Mianzhu Pass at all, and that Li Xingchen would be easily pinned to death by Yuchi Jiong and Wei Xiaokuan in Langzhong, just like pressing an ant to death. But now it seems that he must have thought wrong.
, it seems more like Li Xingchen lured Yuchi Jiong and Wei Xiaokuan into a trap step by step, and then put these two Northern Zhou armies to death.
Pei Zilie looked at Zou Qiang quietly. This person is more cautious than aggressive, but his shortcomings are also his advantages. Li Xingchen still lacks enough talents under his command. If Zou Qiang can be used by Li Xingchen, then Zou Qiang will naturally be used in future marches and battles.
Sitting in the rear can free up more generals who are good at charging into battle.
Now Pei Zilie rudely told Zou Qiang the fact that all of this had been planned by Li Xingchen, and he, Zou Qiang, was also part of Li Xingchen's calculations. Zou Qiang couldn't help but murmured: "It's all planned well.
Victory is won thousands of miles away, and the reputation of general Dang Kou is well-deserved..."
Pei Zilie said in a deep voice: "General Dang Kou used surprise troops to defeat the defenders, and he also wanted to win a quick victory. After all, General Dang Kou has also been thinking about Zou Duwei for a long time. I wonder if Zou Duwei is interested in watching with a certain
Look, where will General Dangkou lead the war in Bashu?"
Zou Qiang was startled for a moment before he understood what Pei Zilie meant. He looked at Pei Zilie silently and was not in a hurry to answer the question. However, the weapon in his hand had already been dropped on the ground. The surrounding Nanchen generals also slowly lowered their hands.
Weapon, they could already see Zou Qiang's choice from his expression.
Rather than die in battle at Mianzhu Pass, this seems to be a good choice. Anyway, he is already dead, and Zou Qiang does not expect to leave his name in history.
Obviously, Pei Zilie gave him a chance, which made it difficult for him to let go. He, Zou Qiang, was still young, and the Bashu war situation was already developing into a situation that he, Yuchi Jiong, Wei Xiaokuan and others had never expected.
It is impossible to not be a little curious about where you will go.
And if I can really fight with such a madman, it may be considered a blessing.
With a wry smile, Zou Qiang said softly: "General Pei, this Mianzhu Pass is yours."
Then Zou Qiang knelt down on one knee and solemnly raised his hand: "Thanks to the general for never giving up, Zou Qiang is willing to serve as a dog and horse under the general's command."
Pei Zilie hurriedly took a step forward and stretched out his hand to help Zou Qiang up: "There is no need for this. We still need to support General Zou in the future."
Zou Qiang nodded gratefully. Pei Zilie made a gesture of introduction: "This is the forward Zheng Kaiyuan under a certain command. This time he led the elite to jump down from the Luofeng Slope, which allowed a certain person to control Mianzhu Pass.
In his hands, so the victory in this battle belongs to him!"
Zheng Kaiyuan's wounds had been treated. When he heard Pei Zilie's voice, he raised his head and met Zou Qiang's eyes. Thinking that not long ago, this guy had tried to kill himself with a knife, Zheng Kaiyuan felt a sense of absurdity.
a feeling of.
However, he also admitted that Zou Qiang was somewhat capable in defending the city and reacting to the situation on the battlefield. It was a pity that the soldiers and horses under his command were really unreliable. Even a famous general could rely on a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people who had never been on the battlefield.
, and it is difficult to determine how this battle will turn out.
Zou Qiang did not mess up his position at the critical moment, and even almost stopped and killed Zheng Kaiyuan. Zheng Kaiyuan saw this skill, so it was not surprising that Pei Zilie took a fancy to Zou Qiang and persuaded him to surrender.
Everyone has a love for talents, not to mention that for the current Li Xingchen group, talents are really important.
"Everyone was his own master just now, and there were many offenses. I hope General Zheng will not remember the faults of others." Zou Qiang immediately bowed his hands respectfully.
Tang Zhong, Xu Deyan and others all looked at Zheng Kaiyuan subconsciously. In the final analysis, the only one who really had a problem with Zou Qiang was Zheng Kaiyuan. As long as Zheng Kaiyuan agreed, then naturally no one could say anything more.
Zheng Kaiyuan was silent for a moment, then stood up and solemnly returned the gift: "General Zou's bravery in battle can be felt by everyone. It is an honor to be able to fight side by side with General Zou in the future!"
"How can a defeated general be brave enough?" Zou Qiang hurriedly stepped forward to help Zheng Kaiyuan, and Zheng Kaiyuan smiled, apparently having accepted this enemy's new identity.
After all, Zheng Kaiyuan was also a retired general, so he actually didn't want to embarrass Zou Qiang, who had the same identity as him. If we all met and smiled, we could still be brothers of Paoze in the future.
Next to him, General Xu Deyan and Tang Zhong subconsciously looked at each other and smiled. Xu Deyan walked quickly to Pei Zilie and whispered: "Congratulations, general."
Pei Zilie said calmly: "Why are you so happy?"
"How can we not be happy to conquer Xiongguan and gain good generals?" Xu Deyan said solemnly.
And Pei Zilie sighed softly: "Xiuyuan, there are still many difficult places ahead of this road, how can I be happy?"
Xu Deyan was startled for a moment and then said: "General, doesn't he have confidence in the future?"
Pei Zilie raised his eyebrows, and Xu Deyan said immediately: "It turns out that we are all under this deep night, and now we can finally see a glimmer of light, so I feel happy."
"Glad, that's well said, gratifying!" Pei Zilie couldn't help laughing.
Xu Deyan's explanation made Pei Zilie feel relieved. He thought that he had talked about these things with Xu Deyan before, but now Xu Deyan was more open-minded than him. He laughed in a low voice and said, "Xiu Yuan, you think too much."
Xu Deyan smiled and nodded, but didn't say much.
In Tangzhong, Zheng Kaiyuan and others heard Pei Zilie's laughter and looked over curiously. However, the smile on Pei Zilie's face quickly faded. He turned his head and said coldly: "Spread the scouts out, and be sure to find out who Wei Shou is."
At which position, at the same time, send someone to inform General Dang Kou and General Chen of Shu County that Mianzhu Pass has been conquered!"
