Chapter 551

(is the climax of the monthly ticket coming to an end? It's two and a half days before the end of this month. How about two and a half more days?)

To the north of Mandu banner is Keqin banner, and to the north of Keqin banner is sele banner. Today, Keqin banner is an empty place. Some herdsmen have gone to the snow mountain and some have moved away. On the vast grassland thousands of miles away, only some small tribes reluctant to leave here still live. Even if they have to face the threat of the northern barbarians in the north, they are still hesitant to avoid it.

When Fang Xie passed Keqin banner with 10000 light riders, sometimes he couldn't see a person for hundreds of miles. Occasionally, some herdsmen drove cattle and sheep to graze. When they saw the cavalry coming from a distance, they thought it was a wolf riding in Keqin banner. They cheered a few times. When they found that it was not a wolf riding nearby, these herdsmen turned around and ran, ignoring even cattle and sheep.

With fewer people, prairie wolves become more and more rampant.

Because prairie people think they are the offspring of wolf God, they never kill wolves. The wolves that have been thriving have become more unscrupulous in recent years. However, even if they are fierce, they will stay away from the cavalry when they see the brigade, and watch the cavalry drive past with vigilance.

Kirin doesn't like riding. He strides with Fang Xie with a copper stick. Such a broad guard, coupled with such a majestic white lion, complement each other and look particularly powerful.

"General, when shall we return to the Central Plains?"

Qilin asked as he walked.

Fang Xie lay on the back of the white lion and looked at the sky and smiled: "Come on, let's go back to the Northwest after fighting a few wars, and then look at the timing, and then go southeast. The emperor's army has left Jinyang and set out for Luoshui. Only Jin Shixiong and tens of thousands of people are left in the northwest. Let's go back, Jin Shixiong doesn't dare. There are not many troops left by Luo Yao on the Huangyang road. We can cross the northwest Turn over Mount Mangdang later and stand on Huangyang road first. "

Qilin said, "although this place is good and comfortable, it is not as friendly as the Central Plains after all. Most of the soldiers are also thinking about it. In fact, everyone is looking forward to the senior general taking us back. Now, although the soldiers don't say it, they can see it, and they all know that the Central Plains is in a mess. Who doesn't want to achieve greater success?"

Fang Xie looked at Qilin and said, "you think so, too?"

Qilin smiled, "I don't care. I'll follow the general wherever he goes. I'm used to it."

Fang Xie smiled at the corners of his mouth and looked back at the big dogs who were chatting with the soldiers.

Yeah

The soldiers could see clearly.

Now it's not just Fang Xie who doesn't want to fight. Who doesn't want to have a good future? They follow Fang Xie. At first, they may want to escape, but they won't escape for a lifetime. If Fang Xie doesn't go back to the Central Plains and enter the chaos of competing for deer, they will be unwilling. In fact, the transformation of people's thoughts is sometimes not difficult, and they will never change when the Sui Dynasty was strong Will give birth to this kind of thought, but now the big Sui Dynasty is in turmoil, and none of them can help but think about whether they will have a chance to become a new founding hero in the future?

A man's heart is never short of desire, which has nothing to do with his status.

"War will kill."

Fang Xie murmured.

Qilin rubbed his nose and said, "war, how can people not die?"

Fang Xie was stunned and subconsciously looked at Qilin. It seemed that he didn't expect Qilin to say such a thing. Seeing Fang Xie looking at himself, Qilin smiled embarrassed: "the military division and the generals said this when they were drinking a few days ago. I just remembered it for a moment."

Fang Xie said well, he knew that sun Kaidao had a lot of deep talks with the following generals in order to promote himself to start the army. First, he was imperceptibly influencing the generals' mentality, and second, he was trying to make Fang Xie make up his mind earlier. Sun Kaidao was determined to become prime minister. Although the great Sui Dynasty had no such powerful official position at all, this was the greatest reason of Wu Fu Like becoming a general of Zhu state, the prime minister is the ultimate ideal of literati.

During his days on the grassland, sun Kaidao constantly hinted that Fang Xie should raise his own flag and start fighting instead of just retreating. Fang Xie also knew that many of the generals below were thinking about it.

By now, some things will happen naturally.

"Yes, there can be no death in war."

Fang Xie smiled and asked Qilin, "have you ever thought about fighting on the battlefield every day in the future? Is this the life you want to live?"

Qilin thought hard and giggled: "I don't know what kind of life I want. I'm very good now. I'm at ease with the general and the big dog every day. The big dog should be the same. When I drank a few days ago, he said that although it was hard and dangerous to think back to the previous days, there were a lot of happy things together."

Fang Xie nodded. As soon as he was about to speak, he heard the sound of horse hoofs coming from the opposite side. He sat up straight from the white lion and saw that it was the scout with a flag tied on his back.

"Newspaper"

The scouts stopped far away, jumped down from the horse's back, trotted over and knelt on one knee: "General, Zhuge's boundless troops attacked the northern barbarian camp 120 miles ahead last night. They broke through 30000 northern barbarians, beheaded tens of thousands and captured tens of thousands of prisoners. General Zhuge sent someone back to report that he was still pursuing with his troops. Chen moved the troops out 160 miles northwest and also found the northern barbarian camp. There were no less than 30000 people, so they were heavily guarded, so they didn't start yet. No news has come back from the other armies. "

Fang Xie gave an order: "send someone to tell Zhuge boundless that it is too fierce to chase. It has reached the border of Keqin banner, and then to the north is sele banner. Now there are at least one million northern barbarians in sele banner. Tell him that this is to train troops, not to fight with northern barbarians."

"Yes"

The scouts answered and went back to the horse.

The scouts just left. Suddenly, a warning horn sounded from a distance. It was the Ranger on the flank who found the enemy's signal. Fang Xie looked at the direction of the horn and waved his hand to order the team to stop. Ten thousand light riders immediately changed their array and were ready to attack at any time.

……

……

When Fang Xie saw more than a dozen horsemen in the distance and a man in a Confucian shirt riding over, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised. The man looks like a Han, but obviously he can't come alone. If there is only one person, the Ranger won't send a signal. I guess there should be a team over there.

The man in the Confucian shirt came to Fang Xie and looked at Fang Xie and the white lion he sat down. He was obviously surprised.

"Excuse me, but general Fang?"

Fang Xie nodded: "who are you?"

The man in Confucian clothes is the one called the envoy by the northern barbarians. He was really surprised when he saw the white lion, but he soon recovered himself. He smiled at the other side and said, "I'm from the northern barbarian, but general Fang should be half an old friend."

"Half an old friend?"

Fang Jie doesn't understand.

"Ask the general to move."

The man in Confucian clothes got down from the horse and reached out and made a gesture of invitation. Fang Xie shook his head to stop the soldiers from yelling. He came down from the white lion to signal the army to rest in place. Without a guard, he followed the man for dozens of steps to the distance. After leaving the team far enough, the man in Confucian shirt hugged his fist again: "it's disturbing general Fang."

"Who the hell are you?"

Fang Xie asked.

"The general doesn't know me. I say it's half the general's old friend because my friend is the general's old friend."

"Who?"

"Perfect face and morality."

The Confucian man smiled: "my surname is Xie. I have always lived in the 100000 mountains in northern Liaoning."

At this time, Wan Yan Yunshu, who had been chatting with Mu Xiaoyao in the back, suddenly saw the man in front of Fang Xie and shouted, "Mr. Xie, why are you here?"

"Yes, your Highness"

When the man in Confucian clothes saw Wanyan Yunshu coming over, he leaned over and saluted slightly.

Wan Yan Yunshu took his arm and said in surprise: "I've been away for several years. Why did Mr. suddenly come here? Mr. here, did father Khan come here?"

The middle-aged man called Mr. Xie smiled and said, "big Khan is still in northern Liaoning. This time I came out by myself. When I see your highness well, I can explain to big Khan when I go back."

"You came to see me?"

Wanyan Yunshu asked with a smile. It seems that she knows and respects the middle-aged man very well. The northern Liao people didn't have the title of sir. Obviously, they learned the Han people's honorific title for the middle-aged man.

"Big Khan specially ordered me to inquire about your highness."

Mr. Xie said.

"Oh"

Wan Yan Yunshu pouted: "I didn't come to see me specially, which made me happy in vain. In that case, you can talk. Don't tell your father Khan that you've seen me when you go back!"

"Your Highness, Khan cares about you very much."

Mr. Xie said quickly.

Wan Yan Yunshu immediately laughed, ran back, took Fang Xie's arm and said with a smile: "I won't tease you any more. This is Mr. Xie, the most respected wise man in northern Liaoning. He hasn't left since he arrived in northern Liaoning more than ten years ago. He taught us how to read, weave and spin, and how to distinguish the stars in the sky. Mr. Xie is knowledgeable. Many Han allusions I know are taught by Mr. Xie. Please talk and I'll go back and find them Sister Shen said to them. "

Fang Xie smiled, nodded, and then hugged Mr. Xie: "what advice does Mr. Xie have to see me?"

"Ask the general to withdraw."

Mr. Xie said directly, "to be honest with the general, I helped the northern barbarians enter the grassland this time. The northern Barbarian King obeyed me and finally invaded the grassland. I really don't want the northern barbarians who have just tasted the sweetness to go back because they are afraid of the general's iron horse."

"Huh?"

Fang Xie was stunned. After thinking for a while, he said, "Sir's intention is to let the northern barbarians invade the grassland, so that there will be a barrier between the northern Liao and the grassland. If the Mongolian Yuan court wins in the future, if you want to put pressure on the northern Liao as before, you must clean up millions of northern barbarians first."

"It should be more than that..."

Fang Xie was silent for a while and said, "the place where the northern barbarians live borders the great Sui Dynasty. After the northern barbarians left, the people of northern Liao wanted to enter the great Sui Dynasty one more way, which is closer and safer. They don't have to worry about being disturbed by the Mongolian Yuan people. Entering the customs from the territory of the northern barbarians, you don't have to go to the place where there are many wars in the northwest. Could it be... The emperor of the great Sui Dynasty has promised you that the northern Liao Dynasty will be incorporated into the Central Plains?"

Mr. Xie praised: "Your Highness Wanyan Chongde praised general Fang in front of me more than once. Today, he really deserves his reputation. Yes, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty has issued an order to allow millions of people in northern Liao to pass through the northern barbarians and enter the pass at Lingbei road. He has specialized in a large area on Lingbei Road, which is the new home of the northern Liao people."

Fang Xie frowned because he didn't know what Mr. Xie came from and didn't say his worries.

"Congratulations, the Great Khan of northern Liao has finally achieved his wish, and the people of northern Liao can finally get out of the bitter cold."

"Yeah."

Mr. Xie smiled and said, "it's really gratifying."

Both of them were laughing, but Fang Xie always felt that there was something else looming in Mr. Xie's eyes.

"That's right"

Mr. Xie suddenly said, "my nephew and general Fang are still classmates and friends."

"Xie Fuyao?!"

Fang Xie immediately thought of the childe who was as rich as jade, and then quickly stood up and saw him again with the courtesy of his younger generation: "since he is Fu Yao's uncle, he is also my elder."
