Chapter 1448

The next day, on the 24th day of the eighth month, the Luo Yuecheng camp became commotion again. The Marquis of Anyi, Guan Yubai, was in the camp to prepare the troops in person, and the 10,000-strong army was about to march south.

On the 25th of August, the 10,000 soldiers and horses were ready and ready at the gate of the camp, and Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan, personally saw them off!

These soldiers are all under the command of the prince Xiao Yi, and most of them are veterans who have been on the battlefield. They have killed Baiyue and slaughtered Nanliang. They just stand so solemnly, and they release a fierce murderous aura.

Most of the soldiers present only knew that the army was going to march south, but since the prince had let Marquis Anyi lead the troops in person, the battle would not be easy.

They don't know the inside story, but Si Lin, who is dressed in black behind Guan Yubai, knows.

Si Rin looked at Guan Yubai without blinking.

Today's Guan Yubai still didn't put on his armor, he was still wearing a simple moon-white robe. The cyan cloak flew in the wind like an eagle's wings, and a cluster of flames burned in his eyes, which was full of vitality.

Si Lin couldn't help but slightly curled his lips, as if he had seen the officer and major general who galloped valiantly in the Western Xinjiang many, many years ago.

It's been eight years, exactly eight years. Who would have guessed that Guan Yubai would have the opportunity to compete with Xiye again eight years ago? !

For Si Rin, everything from eight years ago still seems to be in sight.

Guan Ruyan was framed for losing the air force's pay, and secretly colluded with Xiye. The "criminal evidence" was conclusive, and the disaster that overturned the top in an instant. On the way to the capital, he died of serious injuries, and only Guan Yubai, who was bruised and bruised, was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison...

When Si Lin got the news, he was still traveling in the south of the Yangtze River, and even if he had the ability to insert wings, he was helpless.

He could only bring a group of friends from all corners of the country to the capital as soon as possible, wanting to rescue Guan Yubai from the prison... But, Xiao Si, the impatient person, took the initiative first. Finally, Xiao Si's luck was not too bad. He was rescued, and he also met the little girl Nangong Yue, who was extremely skilled in medicine—as if from that moment, God began to take pity on Guan Yubai again... until today!

Thinking, a sneering light flashed in Si Lin's eyes. What God, if God had eyes, the official family would not have such a fate!

Si Rin knows Guan Ruyan, his wife, and the rest of the Guan family... This is a very good family. They have always hated these officials' children and thought they were pretending to be hypocrites, but the official family is different. It's like those noble mansions in the royal capital, not like those rich and wealthy families, who fight for power and profit within the family for their own selfishness, and do not hesitate to kill each other, such as several princes, such as Qi Wang's mansion, such as Jian'anbo's mansion...

Officials are different from them!

Probably because the official family guards the Western Xinjiang all the year round, and there are constant wars in the Western Xinjiang. For the soldiers, every time they send troops may be a farewell. The official family has always faced the most profound joys and sorrows in the world, which makes them cherish their own. Family members, fathers and sons, uncles and nephews, husband and wife, and brothers are all intimate. Only in this way can they hand over their backs to each other without reservation on the battlefield!

But because of the ignorance of the emperor, everything disappeared in a despicable transaction...

The official family was not defeated by the swords and spears in the war, but fell into the conspiracy of the capital...

If he is Guan Yubai, I am afraid that this corrupt dynasty will be completely destroyed, but Guan Yubai is not himself after all.

Since he was born, the earnest teaching of his fathers has destined him to be a general who puts the people of the world first!

Beginning in the Western Night, and finally in the Western Night.

Guan Yubai said that his father, Guan Ruyan's greatest wish, is to restore a peaceful and prosperous world in the Western Xinjiang, and there will never be a village that was killed by Xiye people, and there will be no more children like Xiaosi. ...

Since Dayu cannot be destroyed, then probably only by destroying Xiye can we truly let all the heroes of the official family rest in peace!

The past is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed, and now, what is ultimately needed is this battle.

For Yubai, this battle must be won!

Probably only in this way, can Yubai truly put an end to his old feud and feud, and fulfill his long-cherished wish...

It's just what has been lost and can't come back...

At dawn, the breeze was gentle, and the flag belonging to Guan Yubai was hunting in the wind. With a melodious horn sounded again, the representative army was about to set off.

Xiao Yi held up a large celadon bowl full of water and wine, as did Yu Xiufan, Chang Huaixi and others behind him, Xiao Yi smiled and said loudly to Guan Yubai and the 10,000 soldiers present: "Send your lord After a thousand miles, we must say goodbye, and this prince is here to see off my soldiers in the southern border!"

He drank half of the wine in the bowl in one breath, and then spilled the remaining half of the bowl on the ground...

Sprinkling wine on the soil is to invite those buried under the soil to drink together. It is to pay homage to those heroic spirits who died on the battlefield. In this battle, they will go far to Xiye to pay homage to those heroic spirits who died in battle because of Xiye!

Guan Yubai looked at Xiao Yi deeply, probably only he and a few people understood the deep meaning of Xiao Yi's move.

He didn't say anything, just made a gesture and took the lead in galloping out...

The silver-white flag embroidered with the word "official" swayed away, and the army set off with high morale, heading south, rolling up the dust in the sky, and the footsteps rumbled like thunder, trembling in the sky, and the sky and the earth were filled with one. A chilling air is awe-inspiring.

Xiao Yi, Yu Xiufan, Chang Huaixi and others have been standing at the gate of the camp, watching the army go away.

Gradually, the horn sounded farther and farther, the footsteps became lighter and quieter, and the surroundings became quiet, and the flying and noisy dust returned to the embrace of the earth, only they were still there.

The rising sun is getting higher and higher, and Xiao Yi's eyes are getting brighter and brighter.

Now that a goal has been set, all they have to do is to achieve it!

"Big brother..." Yu Xiufan rubbed his hands together and looked at Xiao Yi with a smile, his smiling eyes flickering with anticipation, as if he was asking, when will it be their turn for the cutting-edge camp?

Although Chang Huaixi and Yan Xijun didn't speak, their expressions showed the same expectation.

"What's the hurry?" Xiao Yi waved his hand casually, "You guys have other tasks! If you have time, hurry up and practice!"

Yu Xiufan responded with delight, and left with a few others.

On the battlefield, if you want to survive, you have to water yourself with sweat over and over again to make yourself stronger and stronger!

As for Xiao Yi, he directly rode his horse back to Luoyue City.

I don't know how many times I have walked this road with dark clouds and snow. Without Xiao Yi bothering, it carried its master to Bixiaotang on its own.

From a distance, Xiao Yi saw a familiar figure lingering at the gate of East Street.

When the distance between the two gradually narrowed, the other party couldn't wait to bow down on the ground: "Master Shizi..."

"Master Hou." The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth twitched, looking down at the Marquis of Pingyang several meters away, the other party was still calm, but a pair of shrewd sharp eyes concealed a stormy sea.

Of course, this is not a coincidence. The Marquis of Pingyang came to wait for Xiao Yi early in the morning. Even if the concierge said that the prince was not there, he would not leave.

"It just so happens that the son of this generation also wants to talk to the prince." Xiao Yi said with a smile.

Even if the Marquis of Pingyang didn't come today, Xiao Yi planned to find a time to see him. Since he brought it to the door himself, it would save him the trouble.

But Xiao Yi's kind smile made Pingyang Hou's heart sink, and he almost began to regret whether he should have come today... I'm afraid that his guess is probably true... If so, the emperor may be stealing chickens this time. Do not lose the rice.

In the mixed mood of Marquis Pingyang, the two went to Shuzhi Hall together.

After learning yesterday that Guan Yubai was going to lead a 10,000-strong army to the south, the Marquis of Pingyang felt wrong. Didn't Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai have already won Baiyue? Why go south again? Are you going to take down Nanliang? ……wrong!

On the one hand, they lend troops to the emperor to deal with Xiye, and on the other hand, they send troops to the south, and the two sides are fighting. Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai are both battle-hardened generals, so how could they do such a risky thing? !

Unless they plan otherwise.

Ever since Xiao Yi agreed to borrow troops, the Marquis of Pingyang felt that things were not quite right, and he suspected that Xiao Yi had no plans.

Xijiang... Xiye... Guan Yubai, when these three were placed together, the Marquis of Pingyang suddenly had a flash of inspiration and figured out something.

Speaking of Xiye, the person who hates Xiye the most is Guan Yubai, but when Xiye invaded the border, Xiao Yi sent others to the western border to fight with Xiye. ? Unless Guan Yubai's target is also Xiye, everything becomes reasonable.

Guan Yubai must be detouring from the southwest to Xiye!

If you want to make a detour, you must take a detour. When did the Southern Border Army already have such a large influence in the southwest, and can make those small countries agree to let tens of thousands, no, maybe tens of thousands of Southern Border troops pass through?

Thinking of this, Marquis Pingyang almost shuddered and couldn't help but ran over. Even he himself didn't know whether he hoped his guess was true or false...

After the two of them sat down at the top and bottom respectively, Bamboo served them hot tea neatly and then retreated to the hall to guard.

Xiao Yi said with a smile: "Master Hou, we have good mountains and water in southern Xinjiang, and good tea. This Pu'er tea is no worse than Longjing and Biluochun. Master Hou will try it."

The more polite Xiao Yi was to him, the more terrified the Marquis of Pingyang became. He knew best that this Prince Xiao was a laughing fox, and he could eat people without spitting out bones, but he could only pretend to take a sip of tea. He is not afraid of the other party's poisoning, the other party wants to kill him is a labor of his own, why bother so much.

After putting down the tea cup, Marquis Pingyang looked at Xiao Yi with tangled eyes, calmed down, and still asked tentatively: "Sir, General Yao and the 10,000 soldiers have been gone for more than ten days, presumably it will be a few more days. I'm about to arrive in the Western Frontier... I wonder what Shi Ziye thinks of the Xiye army?"

Xiao Yi raised the corners of his mouth even higher, and said with a smile, "Master Hou is a smart person, and my son-in-law likes to talk to smart people the most..."

Marquis Pingyang's heart sank slowly, and it seemed that his guess was right.

Xiao Yi still looked nonchalant, but his smiling eyes seemed to see through the heart of Marquis Pingyang, and he bluntly announced: "Xiye has violated the borders for the sake of the people of the Great Yujiang Mountains. Don't worry, just accept it!"

If these words were spoken by someone else, the Marquis of Pingyang would feel that he was outrageous and whimsical.

But from Xiao Yi's mouth, Pingyang Hou did not dare to doubt it at all.

This prince of Zhennan really dares to think what others can't think of!

The Marquis of Pingyang only felt goosebumps all over his body, and a cold sweat broke out from his back, soaking his shirt.

Once the Southern Border Army takes Xiye, what impact will it have on Dayu's situation?

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and asked with a bitter face: "Master Shizi, do you still need to stay in the southern border?"

Xiao Yi didn't speak, just looked at Marquis Pingyang quietly.

In fact, the Marquis of Pingyang already had the answer in his heart, but he just asked the question knowingly. Since Shizi Xiao was so frank with him, how could it be possible to let him go back to the capital and ruin his big business?

Even if Xiao Yi agreed, he was still worried about whether he would return to the capital!

The Marquis of Pingyang sighed inwardly, and now that he has been unable to ride a tiger, he can only take the initiative to say: "Master Shizi, after this Marquis came to the southern border, I feel that the southern border has good mountains, good water... good tea, and folk customs. Honest, I don’t know how much better it is than the smoky atmosphere of the capital, Ben Hou lived here very comfortably, and I plan to stay longer, what will the lord of the world think?”

Xiao Yi smiled meaningfully, "I'll just say it, Lord Hou is indeed a smart man, and he knows that I'm good in southern Xinjiang."

Marquis Pingyang could only make a false response, feeling bitter in his heart. No matter how brave the Southern Border Army is, Xiye is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp. Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai want to win Xiye in a short period of time, half a year, a year... or even longer?

Although a trip to Bixiaotang solved the doubts in Marquis Pingyang's heart, it also added more troubles to him. Even he himself didn't know whether it was a curse or a blessing to escort Kui Lang and the third princess to the southern border...

The Marquis of Pingyang was already irritable enough, but after returning to the other courtyard, there was a third princess waiting there. As soon as they met, they asked, "Master Hou, when will Ben Gong return to the capital?" It's been half a year, how long do you want to stay in this ghost place in Southern Border? !

The Marquis of Pingyang was impatient, and he said politely and perfunctorily: "His Royal Highness, the third princess, now the war in the western border is critical.

Even if the third princess had any expectations for Marquis Pingyang, they had already been exhausted by waiting day after day. Every time I asked, I got some vague answers.

The three princesses clenched their fists fiercely, holding back their anger and said: "Master Hou, Mingming Zhennan Wangfu is so arrogant and domineering, and has no court, why did the emperor not punish them! Where does Dayu lack ten thousand soldiers and horses!  … Look at this palace, they should teach Zhennan Wangfu a good lesson, they know how powerful it is!" There was a trace of resentment in the eyes of the third princess.

The Marquis of Pingyang became more and more impatient when he heard that the third princess was speaking out loudly, but after hearing it, he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with the third princess. He squinted his eyes, stared at the third princess and warned: "His Royal Highness the third princess, the strong dragon will not suppress the snake, we are still in the territory of Zhennan Wangfu, you must not be willful!"

The Marquis of Pingyang actually dared to reprimand him! There was a thick haze and unwillingness in the eyes of the three princesses, and sure enough, she couldn't count on others! Now even the Marquis of Pingyang doesn't take his dignified princess in the eye!

If he was in the capital, how could the Marquis of Pingyang treat him like this?

The third princess really wanted to go back to the capital immediately, but the Marquis of Pingyang refused to cooperate!

As if something was ignited in the heart of the third princess, her long nails dig deep into her palm.

But the Marquis of Pingyang didn't look at the third princess again, and seemed to bow respectfully, and then resigned.

The third princess stood there for a long time, her beautiful eyes staring at the departing back of Marquis Pingyang, her little face was extremely gloomy, and the flames of resentment burned more and more in her eyes.

The Marquis of Pingyang didn't care what the third princess thought, so he went back to his room with a heavy heart. In the following days, Marquis Pingyang stayed in the courtyard of the palace every day, but even so, he still had his subordinates to take care of the people in the city. The movements were reported to him one by one.

Obviously, Xiao Yi's actions did not mean to hide the public's ears, and all over the city, he saw a steady stream of food, grass, army, horses, clothing and equipment being transported out of the city and sent to the south.

As the days passed, the Marquis of Pingyang gradually recovered from the initial shock.

After calming down, he began to realize that the strength of the southern border was far beyond what he and the people in Wangdu had expected. The emperor and his ministers thought that the southern border was suffering from poor people's livelihood and lack of soldiers and horses during the years of war, but they didn't know that the situation in the southern border had long been over. It grows in the dark, and Zhennan Wangfu is afraid that it has gained a lot of benefits in the previous battles with Baiyue and Nanliang... The remote emperor in the capital not only does not know, but also underestimates Zhennan Wangfu, but instead This gave Xiao Yi the opportunity to lurch and brew.

With Southern Border's current military and financial resources, coupled with the leadership of Anyi Hou Guanyu Bai Zhuojue, this battle with Xiye might really make Xiao Yi get what he wanted...

Dayu is really going to change!

The emperor had already missed the best opportunity. When Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai successfully captured Xiye, I am afraid that the emperor would not have the ability to send troops to the southern border.

At this point, it's not just me who can turn the tide... Anyway, Shizi Xiao should remember his surrender!

The Marquis of Pingyang comforted himself in his heart, and no longer thought about it, and stayed in the southern border.

Not only the Marquis of Pingyang, but also the King of Zhennan knew about the various changes in the army recently, and they were also in shock and doubts. But he looked for Xiao Yi several times, and was dismissed by Xiao Yi with a few words.

The anger in King Zhennan's heart also jumped up little by little...

Seeing that a father-son war was about to break out again, on this day, when King Zhennan was looking for Xiao Yi again, Nangong Yue simply hugged Xiao Xiaoyu and went with Xiao Yi to greet King Zhennan.

When he saw the baby Jinsun waving his chubby hand "Yeah", the anger that had reached his throat seemed to be poured into a bucket of cold water, and instantly extinguished. It also turned into a kind greeting.

"Concubine Shizi, is Brother Yu still good today?" King Zhennan hurriedly squeezed out a smile when he scared the baby Jinsun.

"Go back to my father, brother Yu is very good." Nangong Yue hugged the little guy with a smile and blessed her body, "Father, brother Yu was able to stand up with the railings yesterday."

King Zhennan's eyes suddenly lit up and praised: "Our brother Yu is really smart." He thought triumphantly: As the saying goes, three lifts, four turns, six sits, seven rolls, eight climbs, nine supports, Li Zhou will walk, his Baby Jinsun was only able to stand in eight months. Sure enough, the blood of their Xiao family is different!

The more Wang Zhennan saw Jin Sun, the more cute he felt, and he almost forgot Xiao Yi who was standing beside him. Only when Xiao Yi's family of three left, he suddenly remembered his original purpose.

King Zhennan sighed secretly in his heart, and only hoped that Nizi would be a little more measured and not toss out his precious Jinsun's fortune!

After the family of three left the outer study of King Zhennan, they headed towards Bixiao Hall.

Xiao Yi said with a grin, "Finally, this stinky boy is not worthless except for eating and drinking." It was also a credit for sending his father, who was buzzing like a fly.

While speaking, Xiao Yi hugged Xiao Xiao Yu from Nangong Yue's hand and weighed the weight. This stinky boy sank a lot again, he was really pampered.

But it doesn't matter, now is the time for this stinky boy to enjoy happiness, and when he is older, he will "return" a little bit!

At that time, he and Ayue will be able to live a life like an immortal couple.

The little guy didn't know his father's sinister thoughts, and suddenly came to a higher place from his mother's arms, giggling excitedly.

The young couple walked, talking and laughing, and soon, their yard appeared in front.

Baihui hurried up to greet her, then bowed her knees and said, "Prince Prince, Butler Zhu said he found it all!"

The atmosphere turned cold, and the smile on Nangong Yue's mouth closed.
