Mu Guangling looked at Fang Xie with an incredible look, as if he couldn't believe what Fang Xie said before. He never thought that Fang Xie was for this, and he never thought that Fang Xie would think so. The contradiction between mu mansion and Fang Xie should be irresolvable.
"Nothing is fixed except time."
Fang explained.
He stood on the arrow tower, overlooking the Mufu camp below.
"If nothing unexpected happens, the 200000 troops you brought this time are not enough, and as long as more than 30% of them are pieced together. The current situation of the Mu house is the same as that at the beginning of the collapse of the great Sui Dynasty. When the chaos broke up, the emperor of the great Sui Dynasty thought he could quickly calm the chaos. But soon he found that it was difficult to respond to his orders. Where is the Mu house Dongjiang has been operating for many years. I don't doubt that you have millions of soldiers. "
"However, since you made mistakes constantly, the control of Mu's house began to crumble. Up to now, these 200000 troops are just the last thing you can take out to support your appearance. Although I didn't get a specific report, it can be imagined that how many of them are recruits who have never been on the battlefield and killed people."
Mu Guangling's face changed and turned to one side.
"If you keep your past, you will never bring any hope."
Fang Xie looked at Mu Guangling and said, "if you still think Dongjiang is yours, then today's conversation doesn't happen. I won't kill you on this occasion, but on the battlefield. I can only have two choices for your strategy. First, defeat you in the battlefield, and then tell the Dongjiang people that you can't. second, surrender and tell the Dongjiang people that you can't."
Fang Xie's words were very direct, which cut Mu Guangling's self-esteem again.
"Not good?"
Fang Xie smiled: "leave something for your son."
Fang Xie's words seemed to break through Mu Guangling's heart.
Mu Guangling was silent for a long time. After all, it was just a silent sigh. Perhaps he had already seen through himself, and the Kowloon seat in his mind had long gone away from him. What else can he leave for muxianjun if he fights with the black flag army from secret to open?
"Don't look at me like that."
Fang Xie turned to Mu Xianjun: "if you want to kill me, try it, but... You couldn't do it before, but you still can't do it now."
Mu Guangling stretched out his hand to pull Mu Xianjun's sleeve and shook his head slowly.
"You are not a good negotiator."
Mu Guangling explains to the other party.
"I'm not here to negotiate, but to give you two choices."
Fang Xie sat down again because he knew Mu Guangling's heart was shaking. Fang Xie has no father in this world, but he can understand a father's doting on his only son. Mu Guangling is not young. He has endured for decades in eastern Xinjiang. Is he really so eager to be emperor before he dies? No, he wants to fight for muxianjun. The glory of any family and the transformation of a family into a country must retreat in front of their feelings for their son.
"If Mu Xianjun hadn't established the red eyebrow army and fought with foreigners, I wouldn't come to you for this conversation."
Fang Xie pointed to Mu Xianjun and said to Mu Guangling, "he is more suitable to be a guardian than you."
Mu Xianjun frowned, but the hatred in his eyes was gradually dissipated.
"Think about it."
Fang Xie turned to leave.
Mu Guangling shouted from behind, "give me a royal appointment."
Fang Xie stopped and looked back at Mu Guangling: "this is very important?"
Mu Guangling said, "take out your jade seal."
Fang Xie smiled and was relieved.
……
……
People who have experienced too many things will doubt more things, so Fang Xie doesn't think that one conversation can make Mu Guangling cooperate. Yes, Mu Guangling really wants to leave something for his son, but can this person's heart be changed in a few words?
What Fang Xie wants is only time.
Next, he has to go all out to prepare for the showdown with Lehmann.
He had no time, no energy, and no rich troops to deal with Mu Guangling. He could not let himself fight a decisive battle with a strong enemy when the rear was unstable. Just like two practitioners with equal accomplishments, when preparing to fight for a victory or defeat, no one has the mind to take into account other things.
In the duel between two masters, if a troublemaker appears behind one of them, even if the cultivation of the troublemaker is very bad, it will also cause distraction.
Once you set aside your energy and cultivation to guard against the people behind you, maybe failure and war death will follow.
Fang Xie needs time. He needs Mu Guangling to be honest.
He even knew that an old fox like Mu Guangling knew what he was thinking. However, Fang Xie's conditions are superior enough to leave half of Mu's territory and less than 200000 troops, which is equivalent to leaving Mu Guangling with a large amount of assets for mu Xianjun.
Mu Guangling is bound to be moved by this condition.
Because Mu Guangling knew that he could not win the battle. Even if he restrained Fang Xie from behind and made Fang Xie unable to fight Lehmann with all his strength, what good would it do to Mu Guangling? If Lehmann wins, I'm afraid Mu Guangling will face more difficulties next.
Therefore, Fang Xie knew that Mu Guangling would not refuse.
People like Mu Guangling are no longer rash ghosts who can make choices because of hatred.
"Are you sure?"
Mu Guangling gently dried Fang Xie's just written will, and looked at the big seal a little distracted. It was muxianjun who spoke with him almost at the same time, but muxianjun's sight was not on the seal, but in the handwriting.
"So ugly"
He said, with a look of disgust.
Fang Xie looked at Mu Xianjun without changing his face, and then threw the jade seal down from the arrow tower. The black attendant standing below stretched out his hand to catch it and put it into the deer skin bag at the waist. The writing is ugly... It's not a year or two.
"No one on the battlefield dares to be sure that he will win ten percent. Sometimes he will say so in order to boost morale, but he always has all kinds of worries in his heart. You have led the army for many years. Naturally, you know this truth."
Fang Xie ignored Mu Xianjun's ridicule, but said to Mu Guangling, "in fact, you should be very happy now. If I'm sure, I may lose my strength after fighting with foreigners, and you still have a chance. If I'm not sure, at least I can defeat foreigners... You don't have much pressure when you have to face foreigners next."
It's very direct.
Fang Xie is very direct today.
After Mu Guangling waited for the ink to dry, he carefully put it away: "I want to keep this thing. It may be of great use in the future."
"To the north of Malan mountain and to the east of Shanhaiguan."
Fang Xie emphasized another sentence.
"Because I have been handed over to others to guard the south of Malan mountain."
"Wei An?"
Mu Guangling asked tentatively.
Fang Xie didn't answer, but mu Guangling knew he had made no mistake. To tell the truth, he can't be happy anyway. Fang Xie's strength made him dissatisfied, while Wei An's betrayal made him angry. But what he doesn't know is that up to now, Wei An hasn't given Fang Xie a clear answer.
"That's it."
Fang Xie is really leaving this time.
"The land of eastern Xinjiang is not far from the Central Plains."
Fang Xie said slowly, "you have been in Dongjiang for so long, and Mu's house has been in Dongjiang for longer, so I believe you know the meaning of this sentence better than others. At the beginning, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty dared to believe that you Mu's house could defend Dongjiang, so did I."
He jumped down from the arrow tower.
"Done?"
Xiang qingniu asked.
Fang Xie nodded and whispered, "I've fooled this old guy for the time being, but he's not a person I can trust. Now I don't have time to entangle with him. I'll try to get time to finish the foreigner's business first."
Xiang qingniu said, "in fact, you can kill him."
Fang Xie shook his head: "the curse is too heavy."
……
……
"You don't want to kill him, do you?"
Mu Guangling looked at his son. His words were like a drop of water penetrating through the paper and dripping into Mu Xianjun's heart.
"The hatred you show is just what you want to show. You actually don't have any hatred for him, do you? You just don't want to make yourself look changed in front of this person. You don't want him to know that you don't want to kill him anymore. Am I right?"
Mu Xianjun smiled bitterly and nodded: "yes, the child really didn't want to kill him."
"What if you have the strength to kill him?"
Mu Guangling asked again.
"Why did father ask?"
Mu Xianjun asked.
Mu Guangling said, "I just want to know your attitude, because it's related to my future arrangement. The arrangement you want to kill him is completely different from that you don't want to kill him."
"No, even if I have the strength to kill him now, I don't want to."
Although he knew it was such an answer, Mu Guangling was still angry and sad when he heard Mu Xianjun's answer.
"He broke your arm."
Mu Guangling road.
Mu Xianjun looked at his father: "if you really treat me well, you won't deliberately stimulate me with such words. If you want to force me to kill, you can tell me directly. I'll kill Fang Xie. I know it's impossible to kill him. I'll still go, because you're my father."
Mu Guangling's face changed and he felt humiliated by his son. But soon, the feeling dissipated.
"Can you give me a reason?"
Asked Mu Guangling.
Mu Xianjun sat down and turned his head to look at the direction Fang Xie left: "Although I know it's not in line with the style of Mufu people, I really think he is the most correct candidate. I've been inquiring about Fang Xie for several years. I know all the things he did in the Central Plains. I believe my father also knows. I've always been uncertain... Is Fang Xie fighting for the world for himself? If so, He went the wrong way. If not, what was he trying to do? "
"I think the world in his mind should be different from that in my mind, and from that of his father. His father competes for the world, thinking about what the family can get, what he can get, and what I can get... But it seems that Fang Xie doesn't think that."
"You seem to admire him very much?"
Mu Guangling asked again.
Although muxianjun was unwilling to admit it, he nodded: "yes"
Mu Guangling sighed: "even you have no fighting spirit and no hostility... What's the use of my fighting spirit and hostility? The Mu house will be handed over to you in the future. If I force myself to act according to my will and don't care how you face it in the future, it may be more difficult for the Mu house in the future."
"Father"
Mu Xianjun stood up and whispered, "put it down..."
"Put it down?"
Mu Guangling sneered: "it's not easy to talk!"
"Not hard"
Mu Xianjun shook his head: "when I was broken, I was sure I wouldn't put down this hatred. But it's only been a few years. I don't have hatred in my heart. We think we can't put it down, but we just don't want to put it down. When you decide to put it down, what can't put it down? The difficulty is not others, not the environment, but my own heart."
He knew that his words might not affect his father, but he had to say, "maybe when you feel you can put it down, it's not worth mentioning what you've experienced."
Mu Guangling looked at his son who spoke so solemnly and seriously, and his sadness became stronger and stronger. This bitterness is not jealousy, but disappointment gradually turns into despair.
"Mu house... No more past."
He said.
