Chapter eight hundred and seventeen will it be a sinner
Listening to Li Xingchen's obviously perfunctory answer, Pei Zilie couldn't help but hum.
It's true that this guy likes to watch the fun, but if he sees the fun, the class will no longer develop on its original track.
Although he said it sourly, Pei Zilie was actually relieved in his heart. To be honest, Pei Zilie was a little uneasy when he really competed with Xiao Mohe. It was not that Pei Zilie had not encountered strong opponents before.
When we were fighting in Bashu, everyone gritted their teeth when facing Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong. But after all, Xiao Mohe was an elder and father-in-law to Pei Zilie...
It's somewhat tied up.
Now that Li Xingchen is here, at least Pei Zilie doesn't need to bear so much psychological burden on his own.
Li Xingchen seemed to have figured out Pei Zilie's thoughts a long time ago. At this time, he just looked at him with a half-smile. Pei Zilie sighed softly and said: "Shizhong, before the Zhou people were in internal strife, we just stood by and looked on, and we were complacent. Now we have been killed."
At the foot of Xiangyang City, we see that Xiangyang is ours, but we still want to be like the Zhou people..."
During the civil strife in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yu Wenxian and Yang Jian fought fiercely, which finally allowed Li Xingchen to reap the benefits. He had everything from Hanzhong to Fancheng in his hands, and now they have reached Xiangyang City. Of course, Pei Zilie did not want to watch a fight with Xiao Mohe, so I'm afraid
Cao Xiaoda can wake up laughing even in his dreams.
The smile on Li Xingchen's face also disappeared. He supported the table with his hands and stared at Pei Zilie closely. His voice was low but powerful: "Is Xiangyang City necessary for us?"
Pei Zilie was startled for a moment, nodded and said: "Xiangyang is located between Jinghu Lake and the Central Plains. It is a hub in ancient times. It should be in our hands. In this way, for us, the attack to the north of the Central Plains will not be limited to Hanzhong. Even if
It is not undesirable to attack Jiangling to the south..."
Li Xingchen then said: "The general also wants Xiangyang. At this time, Xiangyang is already in front of us. Instead of having everyone argue endlessly after attacking Xiangyang, it is better to have a showdown now, so that we can naturally attack Xiangyang later.
.What’s more, it’s just a sign that the general wants to attack us. Maybe the general is just wary in his heart, and it’s reasonable to assume a defensive posture.”
"But having said that, we have deployed our troops and horses now, not facing Xiangyang, but facing each other. Can we stop after this?" Pei Zilie frowned and said, "And if we can decide the outcome and let one side withdraw voluntarily, then
This is almost the ideal state, but in reality it is estimated to be very difficult to achieve.”
Li Xingchen understood what Pei Zilie was worried about. When the civil strife in the Northern Zhou Dynasty first broke out, Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian obviously had the same idea. As long as they could win a quick victory, even if they indulged Li Xingchen and Nan Chen a little now, the whole country's power would be in their hands in the future.
, you can still crush it without blinking an eye.
However, contrary to expectations, the result of the civil strife in the Northern Zhou Dynasty was that Yu Wenxian and Yang Jian launched a battle in Taolinsai, but both sides suffered losses. In the end, no one could do anything to the other, and they could only retreat to lick their wounds.
The result is that now Li Xingchen and Xiao Mohe have surrounded Xiangfan, but the Northern Zhou Dynasty can't even draw out any reinforcements. Not only that, the traditional defense lines such as Huaibei and temporary defense lines such as Yangpingguan are also on fire everywhere.
Urgent.
Pei Zilie obviously didn't want to see Li Xingchen and Xiao Mohe fall into such anxiety, which would give the Northern Zhou Dynasty too many opportunities to take advantage of.
Li Xingchen said calmly: "Is it possible to ask the general to stop? Or are you planning to persuade someone to stop?"
Pei Zilie was stunned and silent.
Li Xingchen then said: "For the general, it is his duty to protect Chen and be loyal to the court. He is a very simple person, so he will be purely loyal to his position. Compared with the general,
General, maybe we are not that simple. We want to change everything in this mess, and we want to create a new world... The old and the new have been contradictory and conflicting throughout the ages."
After a pause, Li Xingchen smiled and said: "The general will definitely not know what we are thinking and what we want to do, and he also knows that he is destined to not be on the same path as us. Even so, we need his help before
He has never hesitated when he was there, and now when he is required to perform his duties, he will not hesitate. These are all expected. It is the character of a general to be vigorous and resolute but not ignorant of flexibility."
Pei Zilie didn't know how to answer for a while. Thinking about it, how could someone selected by Wu Mingche to be the new commander-in-chief of the Nanchen Army be an ordinary person? Xiao Mohe might leave more impressions on people when he was charging into battle.
Brave, but from his previous flexibility and current persistence, we can see that he is a serious and bottom-line person.
Therefore, he is an opponent who requires Li Xingchen's full attention.
"We will not become sinners, because we will succeed." Li Xingchen reached out and patted Pei Zilie on the shoulder, as if he already knew what Pei Zilie wanted to say, "Don't worry, Sir, if possible, I will avoid talking to him."
A direct conflict between the generals. At least we can take down Xiangyang City first."
Pei Zilie nodded solemnly.
He had no doubt about Li Xingchen.
————————————-
In the southwest corner of Xiangyang City, Lu Guangda Camp, facing the arrow tower to the north.
This archery tower is not very high, but it is enough to have a panoramic view of Chen Zhishen's camp not far away. Of course, there is another very important reason for this, that is, Chen Zhishen arranged his camp too close to each other.
The distance between the camps is less than a hundred feet. When the soldiers on the archery tower can clearly see the situation in the camp on the other side, the situation in the camp on the other side can also be clearly seen on this side.
It's not an exaggeration to describe it as "chickens and dogs hear each other".
The general's flag flying in the camp opposite had the character "Chen" in it. It didn't take much to figure out that it must be Chen Zhishen, who was recognized as the most powerful general under Li Xunchen. Only this guy had the guts to attack the camp almost at the door.
If they hadn't seen the tense posture of both sides, or if they had some understanding of the situation, no one would have thought that the armies in these two camps were not allies. After all, in many cases, even friendly armies rarely set up camps like this, especially
For the Southern Dynasty army, this was tantamount to giving the enemy cavalry an opportunity to trample the company camp.
"General," Lu Guangda saw Xiao Mohe and solemnly raised his hand, "Pei Zilie's scouts have appeared behind our camp."
"Everyone is already at the door. It's not surprising that the scouts bypassed the camp directly." Xiao Mohe climbed up to the arrow tower surrounded by several personal guards. (To be continued)
