Yuchi Jiong couldn't help but smile: "Brother, you are a bit greedy. There are tens of thousands of talented people in this world. Even if I, Dazhou, occupy the land of outstanding people, I can't cover them all. What's more, Li Xingchen is so capable, and he can be used as a
I am a sharpening stone for Dazhou. Otherwise, these young people are arrogant and arrogant, which is not a good thing."
Wei Xiaokuan was startled for a moment, raised the sketch in his hand, and said with a smile: "You are still thinking wisely, but it seems that this whetstone will be destroyed in your hands and mine."
"Li Xunchen has set the world on fire for causing harm to Bashu," Yuchijiong said calmly, "While we were still taking a breather, the Southern Dynasty came to kill us for no good reason. We should give them an impressive lesson."
In the original confrontation between the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Southern Chen Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty had the upper hand. Both the upper and middle reaches of the river were under the control of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. It could be said that it had an overwhelming advantage. It was good for the Southern Chen Dynasty to survive. Who would have expected the result in the past few years?
, Nanchen fought against Huainan, attacked Xiliang, and gradually took over strategically important places in his hands. Now he doesn't even intend to let go of Bashu.
It can be said that the Northern Zhou Dynasty had no time to take care of it before, but this time naturally they could not let Li Xunchen and Nan Chen succeed.
"It is said that the relationship between Li Xinchen and the emperor of the Southern Dynasties was not good." Wei Xiaokuan suddenly thought of something, "otherwise the war between Bashu and Bashu had been going on for so long, how could there be no reinforcements at all? Li Xinchen was supporting it all by himself?"
Yuchi Jiong was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Brother Wei, don't you think this is the most terrifying thing about Li Xingchen?"
Wei Xiaokuan was slightly stunned, and then his face became a little gloomy.
"With one's own strength and a small corner of the country, one can move the world," Yuchijiong murmured, "If this person can reach the position of Xiao Mohe or Wu Mingche, will the world still belong to me, Da Zhou? Or even
Even half of the country in the Southern Dynasty is not safe."
Wei Xiaokuan slowly clenched his fists: "In this case... Chen Xu must have noticed it too. Being in a high position, the ability of people is better than you and me. In this way, Bashu will be ignored.
Li Xingchen clearly wants to 'kill someone with a borrowed knife'."
"It doesn't matter if you kill someone with a borrowed knife or lure the tiger away from the mountain..." The expression on Yuchi Jiong's face became more and more solemn, "We cannot lose this battle. Otherwise, if Li Xingchen doesn't die, he will one day become a thorn in my side, Da Zhou."
Wei Xiaokuan glanced at him and smiled bitterly: "Why not now?"
Yuchijiong frowned and said nothing more.
Li Xingchen was able to single-handedly stir up the situation in Bashu, and at the same time forced the Northern Zhou Dynasty to dispatch two generals, Wei Chijiong and Wei Xiaokuan, to Shu, and even implicated the overall situation in the world to change accordingly. This ability to grasp the current situation and people's hearts can
It was enough for Li Xingchen to be called a serious enemy of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
After all, this is an era when information exchange is not yet developed, especially when the two sides are in a hostile state. The understanding of the opponent is often limited to the other party's previous achievements, their own scouts, and the few words from spies. In fact, it is difficult to accurately grasp
A person’s heart and true thoughts.
Especially for veteran generals like Yu Chijiong and Wei Xiaokuan who have been on the battlefield for many years, their way of thinking about marching and fighting cannot be static, so it is not that simple to figure out what they plan to do and what they will do.
However, Li Xinchen was like a roundworm in Yuchi Jiong's belly. From the beginning of the Battle of Jingzhou, he had Yuchi Jiong in his hands, so that Yuchi Jiong really never had the upper hand in front of Li Xinchen.
Or to put it another way, what Li Xingchen really controlled was the court of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. What he calculated was not Yuchi Jiong, but the thoughts of the Dukes in the court. Yuchijiong was a loyal minister, so he controlled the affairs of the court.
If there is a change, then Yuchi Jiong's purpose will naturally be within Li Xingchen's control.
Li Xingchen knew what Yuchi Jiong had to do, so it didn't actually matter how Yuchi Jiong did it or how he feinted. Li Xingchen only needed to set up a trap and wait for Yuchi Jiong in front.
Thinking of this, Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong subconsciously glanced at each other. At this time, they seemed to have understood the terrifying nature of the opponent ahead. What made them even more frightened was that they had no idea why Li Xingchen was so aware of every move in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
.
There were many ministers in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but not many could really influence the decisions of Yu Wenxian and Yang Jian. Could it be said that Li Xingchen had an informant among these people?
Thinking of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yuchi Jiong naturally thought of the Southern Chen Dynasty. If Li Xingchen had such a detailed and accurate grasp of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, how could he not know the changes in the Nanchen Chaotang? In other words, it was Li Xingchen who insisted on leaving Li Xingchen's lone army in Bashu.
Most likely, he had expected this, but even though he knew it was a dangerous situation or even a place of death, Li Xingchen still stayed here.
It can even be said that Li Xingchen went too far and turned around to meet Yuchi Jiong's troops and captured the line from Mianzhu Pass to Langzhong, and even took the initiative to surround Shu County.
This shows that Li Xingchen has absolute confidence in controlling the entire Bashu war situation.
"You are so confident." Wei Xiaokuan sneered and looked up at the faintly visible outline of Tiangongyuan Mountain outside the camp. "I want to see where this Li Xingchen got so much confidence."
Yuchi Jiong nodded slightly. Now all their guesses are just guesses. What kind of opponent Li Xingchen is will not be known until the battle actually starts.
"Send the order, the scouts continue to move forward," Wei Xiaokuan said loudly without hesitation, as if he just remembered something at this time, he turned back to look at Yu Chijiong, "Let's prepare to launch an attack this afternoon."
These words seemed to be discussed with Yuchi Jiong, but it sounded strange to people's ears. It seemed that Yuchi Jiong was not given any room to refute.
When Yu Chishun, who was just outside the tent, heard what Wei Xiaokuan said, he almost subconsciously wanted to stand up and walk into the tent. This clearly did not take Yu Chijiong seriously, and even the previous order for the scouts to move forward was not given at all.
Discuss with Yuchi Jong.
"What does this mean?" Yu Chishun said coldly, reaching out to lift the curtain of the tent.
Does Wei Xiaokuan still have his own father in his eyes? You must know that the two people are not the coach and the deputy general, but two coaches who are equal!
"Young General, think twice!" Cao Xiaoda quickly grabbed Yuchishun with quick eyes and hands, while Fei Yejinli also stood up and blocked Yuchishun's side.
Yuchishun gritted his teeth and said nothing. Cao Xiaoda looked at him quietly, but refused to give in.
As if realizing that Yu Chishun's reaction was wrong, Wei Xiaokuan's subordinates also stood up one after another, holding the hilts of their swords, with a hint of provocation in their eyes.
"The defeated general, what are you shouting at? If you have the ability, shout at Li Xingchen." One of the generals said with a smile, and there was no need to express the ridicule in his words.
