In the dead of night, a mighty horse team quietly galloped out from the north gate of Liangzhou City, including eight hundred white horse servants who followed the new Liang King to move the world, more than 100 swordsmen of the Wu family who went to Liang, and more than a dozen Qi practitioners of the Guanyin Sect of the South China Sea.
For a few rides, they are Xu Fengnian, the backbone of today's Beiliang in civilian clothes, Wu Liuding and Cuihua, a pair of sword-crowned sword attendants, the great master of the Southern Qi Practitioner Xi Tai Jingjing, and the white-eyed old swordsman Sui Xiegu who looks sick, but it is not the above few who are on a par with Xu Fengnian, but Xu Beitong, who should have presided over government affairs in Lingzhou.
Xu Fengnian's abrupt arrival of oranges, where is the accountant more than what to leave his post without permission, it is too late to be happy, during the day, there are some hidden gossip in Qingliang Mountain, saying that after the dusty Thorn Shi came to the house, it was the basin that the prince personally served, and even when the Lingzhou Thorn Shi washed his face, our prince still laughed with him, which made the people in the house confused, should I say that the prince Lixian corporal is good, or should I say that Xu Beitong, the young feudal official, is really too hot anyway, it has always been, As the grandson of Xu Huainan, the king of the Northern Courtyard, Xu Beitong's identity is so sensitive, but he can rise to the top in the officialdom in Beiliang, and outsiders always see flowers in the fog.
Xu Beitong brought a bad news that could be called bad news, thinking that the old Western Shu prince Su was the remnant of the Western Shu Dynasty, and the various layouts and spending a lot of money in Beiliang were all lost, not to mention, and invisibly boosted the arrogance of Chen Zhibao, the king of Shu.
Xu Fengnian was quite calm about this, when he found Su Su and the old master Zhao Dingxiu in the small town of Beimang, he didn't have much hope after getting along, and he didn't have much hope after getting along.
Moreover, Zhao Dingxiu, who has made a comeback, is half an emperor, as long as he can restore the country, it doesn't matter who helps, and the little incense with Bei Liang and him Xu Fengnian is not enough for Zhao Dingxiu to break his wrist with Chen Zhibao regardless of the overall situation.
In the final analysis, the emperor of the Zhao family asked Zhao Kai to go to the Western Regions with a bottle, aiming to first cut off the connection between Beiliang and Shu Zhao, and then form a huge arc-shaped encirclement with the three of the Western Regions.
It can be said that the two sides have won and lost each other in this encounter, but for Tai'an City, which is watching the fire from the other side, for the half-inch tongue Yuan Benxi, how can it be earned, without the Shu Zhao, these two pieces can be used by Beiliang to retreat in the unfavorable situation of the war, Beiliang is equal to the strategic extension of the geographical advantage, even if the war is tight, it can only fight to the death, until all the family funds accumulated by the Xu family in Xu Xiao's hands are exhausted.
However, if you just want to make Xu Fengnian sulk, Xu Beitong will not visit Qingliang Mountain in person, Lingzhou Thorn Shi Lord this urgent "audience", bring a manuscript, is about the reform of the Beiliang Commander, Xu Fengnian listened to Chen Xiliang's suggestion, and carried out a series of drastic removal of the shortcomings of the Beiliang Army, a large number of captains and many miscellaneous generals have rolled up and gotten out, making the original inconspicuous position of captain in the three states of Liangyouling, It became a powerful martial arts hall with full weight under the three generals of a state, and then took back a large number of miscellaneous commanders who were originally used for meritorious people to care for the elderly at home, which shook the foundation of many generals in Beiliang, and after the older generation of generals withdrew from the border pass, they also thought that the heirloom was passed on to their children and grandchildren The title was swept into the garbage basket of history, and most of the children in the clan have not made contributions in person, which has an invisible gap, because a family's torch has been passed down from generation to generation, and the firewood has been sucked away.
Xu Beitong said that if in the peaceful and prosperous era, whether it is Qingliang Mountain robbing the rich and helping the poor, or even killing chickens and eggs, it will not hinder the status of the Xu family in Beiliang, but now it is a critical juncture for Beimang's million-strong army to press the border, and whether the general is willing to contribute or not, it is necessary to fight for it.
After leaving Liangzhou City, Xu Fengnian didn't intervene in this from beginning to end, it was Xu Beitong who was telling the pros and cons to explain the pros and cons, Xu Fengnian is not a person who can't listen to opinions, but he is indeed a little tricky, to be precise, it is difficult to say.
If it were proposed by any other person, Xu Fengnian would not hesitate to adopt and implement it, but from Xu Beitong's mouth, Xu Fengnian would have to think about it carefully.
Xu Beitong didn't care about Xu Fengnian's reticency, and continued to talk about the big framework of the Beiliang Army in his mind, "The border army doesn't need to draw snakes, just follow the old rules."
The new and old lieutenants in the local area are also aware of their duties.
But now Bei Liang needs more people to voluntarily go to the battlefield to fight, the battle of Liang Mang, fight the leading generals, Bei Liang is slightly better, the armor warriors are brave, Bei Liang has the upper hand, but the more this is the case, the more we can't lose too much to Bei Mang in the competition for toughness, our Bei Liang can never win ten battles After dozens of battles, just because a big battle is lost, we will lose all the money."
Xu Beitong's eyes were resolute, and he said in a deep voice: "Beiliang's foundation is not strong enough, and now the hopeless generals are in a hurry to leave Beiliang, most of these people are moths, but if they really can't turn into Beiliang's combat power, the confrontation between countries has always been better than who can carry it and be beaten."
According to my assumption, Beiliang set up the title of the three major martial generals of the Zhenping Expedition, and these twelve titles are destined to be set up for the outstanding ones in the border army with outstanding military achievements.
But then, there are two levels of school pillars and school cavalry captains, a total of twelve rank martial arts officers, as well as the two major honors of Zhengzhiqing and Zizhiqing.
It is really tailored for wavering wait-and-seeers, for those who are willing to contribute money and effort, and for those who are willing to give advice, of course, these commanders, you have to ensure a premise, must be an orthodox title recognized by the Liyang Imperial Court, if possible, you also have to ask the Tai'an City Military Department for an edict announcing the world, requiring the Zhao family and the military department to not only recognize the Beiliang ranks, but also promise that as long as the Beiliang commanders want to leave the country to serve as foreign officials, they can be reduced to one or two ranks to hold positions, No prevarication or refusal can be given under any pretext" Xu Fengnian smiled bitterly: "Tangerine, you really think that the Tai'an City Military Department is a small courtyard of my family, although I have a good relationship with Lu Baijie, but I am sure that this Tangxi Sword Immortal will definitely fall to the ground after receiving the fold."
Now in order to suppress local forces, even old generals like Yan Zhenchun and Yang Shenxing said that if they were thrown out and sent to death, they would be thrown out, how could they beat themselves in the mouth, and when the time came, they took care of our Beiliang, and Gu Jiantang also wanted the lion to open his mouth, do you say that the military department and the one sitting on the dragon chair will agree or not" Xu Beitong shook his head decisively and said: "It's different, the Zhao family is too busy to take care of themselves, and now they are relying on Bei Liang and Bei Mang to fight to the death, and if you hand it over, you will be fifty percent sure." ” Xu Fengnian also shook his head and sighed: "It's not that the excerpt can't be handed over, but you have to know one thing, last time, I relied on Song Dongming to propose that Beiliang send troops to Jingnan Guangling Road, and I have already asked the imperial court to pinch its nose and send grain, this time I look at it." ” Xu Beitong loosened the reins of the horse, rubbed his hands, and said softly: "The excerpt is not sent to the military department now.
It depends on when Cao Changqing will completely hurt the court. ” Xu Fengnian nodded, and suddenly asked, "Do you know what I'm thinking?"
Xu Beitong turned his head to look at him, and asked with a calm face: "I'm afraid that Chen Xiliang and I will feel that one mountain is difficult to accommodate two tigers."
Xu Fengnian breathed a sigh of relief and joked: "It's good to know in your heart."
The two of you are not only my friends, but also my master's incomparably important jade, and I will be distressed to death without anyone. ” Xu Beitong also asked, "Do you know what I'm thinking?"
Xu Fengnian rolled his eyes and said: "You are the roundworm in my stomach, but I am not the roundworm in your stomach." ” Xu Beitong didn't stab Mai Mang and stabbed Xu Fengnian a few words as usual, but said: "I think that once Liang Mang starts a war, he has to find a reason not to give Gu Jiantang a chance to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight on the eastern front." ” Xu Fengnian was stunned for a moment and said: "This not only touches the bottom line of Yuanbenxi, I'm afraid even Zhang Julu and Qi Yanglong will not agree." ” Xu Beizhi said indifferently: "Even Wang Xianzhi will lose, there should be no one in the world who can win a hundred battles." ” Xu Fengnian was speechless.
This is probably the biggest difference between Xu Beitong and Chen Xiliang, Chen Xiliang always likes to start from the subtleties, and rarely gives people the feeling of opening and closing the atmosphere when he makes a move.
But Xu Beitong is different, it seems to be more strategic, and the outline is leading.
But there is no superiority between the two.
At least for now.
Xu Beitong smiled for no reason.
Xu Fengnian looked at this guy in confusion.
Under the moonlight, Xu Beitong looked at the north from afar, and said with a soft smile: "When I was young, I always thought that one day I would go south with my grandfather and fight the north cool, but I never thought that my head would be turned upside down." ” Xu Fengnian asked curiously: "You really don't have a person to worry about in the North Royal Court, for example, is there a woman with a childhood sweetheart, is there a like-minded hero, is there a bastard who particularly wants to ride on his head and vent his evil spirit."
Xu Beitong's face was indifferent, and he said softly: "No." ” A plan can be worth the city, and the foundation of the country is determined by a few words.
Who will become the first strategist in Beiliang who is worthy of such a statement, Xu Fengnian will wait and see.
At this time, one of the Wu family's hundred swords sped up, crossed the mounts of Wu Liuding and the female swordsman, came to Xu Fengnian's side, hugged his fists and said loudly: "Xie Cheng'an, the person who died in the country, dared to ask, can the prince have a lesson with Xie when he is free."
Xu Fengnian smiled: "Is it for you to thank Banjian himself, or for Xishu" Xie Cheng'an, who had only lost half a sword of the Xishu Sword Emperor, said frankly: "There are all of them." ” Xu Fengnian grabbed the reins of the horse with both hands, sprinkled a handful of salt on the wound of a hundred-year-old swordsman, and said lazily: "Senior Sui, no one is looking for me to compete with swords, what's the matter, should I have asked you first?"
It is indeed Sui Xiegu, who is Xu Fengnian's latest defeated general, so angry that his two white eyebrows fluttered wantonly, and he snorted coldly, but he did not refuse.
Xie Cheng'an, whose face was dry, said calmly: "I know that I am not the opponent of the prince, but if I don't have this sword in this life, my conscience will be uneasy." ” Cuihua, who closed her eyes and recuperated, opened her mouth and asked coldly: "Xie Cheng'an, after entering the tomb, what kind of sword do you have?"
Xie Banjian's expression suddenly darkened, and he stopped talking.
Wu Liuding laughed and said, "It's okay, it's okay, since we have all left that lifeless place, we don't have to pay too much attention to that rule, Grandpa Xie said that it is a competition, and it is not life and death, I believe that there are a lot of Lord Beiliang Wang, and he will not fight in an invincible position, so it is impossible to say."
Well."
Xu Fengnian turned his head and looked at the Wu family's sword crown who had never dealt with it, "Okay, let's also learn from each other."
Wu Liuding snorted and said angrily: "I'm afraid that you will pick a place, and I will pick a time."
Xu Fengnian said: "That's it. ” Wu Liuding Tian said shamelessly: "A hundred years later" Most of the Wu family's swordsmen's faces were a little strange, and it was really embarrassing to have such a leading young master.
A middle-aged swordsman also quickened the horse's hooves and asked with a smile: "I heard that the king of Beiliang began to practice martial arts from the beginning of sword training."

Xu Fengnian asked with a smile: "What, you Zhang Luantai went to the pinnacle battle in front of the Wu family's sword mound, and you lost to Gu Jiantang, and now you want to find a place from me, who also practices swords."
Zhang Luantai was also sincere, nodded and said: "If you think like this, it's a little difficult to climb to the sky." ” Although the rouge beauty swordsman who was called Aunt Nalan by Wu Liuding did not step forward to join in the fun, he cleared his throat and asked with a loud laugh: "Lord Wang, I don't want to take my own shame and compete with you in sword competition, I just want to ask a small question, Lord Wang, you are so handsome, if I am younger than ten or twenty years old, can I live together?"
Xu Fengnian turned his head and said with a smile: "This sister, why don't you be a nurse for my child in the future?"
The woman's chest rose and fell with the horse's back, and she was not angry after hearing this, and joked: "I knew that I should have gone to the princess in the first place, and I would recognize a sister or something with a dead face, maybe I would be called that by the prince now." ” Xu Fengnian said helplessly: "Fortunately, you didn't recognize my sister with my mother twenty years ago. ” Like Helian Sword Idiot, Sword Monk Cui Meigong, and the most elderly swordsmen in the Wu family's sword mound will all smile.
After a burst of laughter, Xu Fengnian said: "You are all famous masters who use swords, just compare swords with me, I won't agree." ” On this trip, Xu Fengnian only wore a cool knife on his waist, he rubbed his fingers on the handle of the knife at his waist, looked up at the sky, and smiled: "When you get to the border, you might as well take a look at the best knife in the world, what a good way it is." ” In the middle of winter, when the snow falls, the cool knife is unsheathed, the vertical blade is placed horizontally, and the snow is cut when no one is around.
When someone cuts off his head and drinks blood. “”:
