Chapter 255 Father and Son Confrontation
On the day Xiao Zhuo led his army to Xiaogang Village, Mei Dai personally led the generals of the Xiliang Army ten miles eastward.
Mei Dai could not follow the troops sent out this time. She had to lead the Xiliang army to guard Zhangwu and Leshan to resist the attack of the Xirong army in the north. Now the size of the Xiliang army has expanded to more than 20,000 people. Relying on the city defense, Shen Yue Xi is not worried.
But she felt that Mei Dai seemed to have something on her mind. She looked at her all the way and moved her lips several times, but she didn't say anything.
Shen Yuexi guessed that Mei Dai was worried that Xiao Zhuo would not come back to help her fight Yongwei.
"Sister Mei, there's no need to send her off. It's almost noon. Let's go back." Shen Yuexi looked at the dazzling sunshine above her head and said to Mei Dai, "Since my husband has promised to help you establish eternal power, he will never make a mistake. When we defeat King Qi, we will come back and capture Yongwei."
She and Xiao Zhuo have a sense of belonging to Xiaogang Village. From the time they first saw the dilapidated village outside the customs, to now it has been built into a prosperous town with a population of tens of thousands, both she and Xiao Zhuo feel that they are at home. We cannot tolerate enemy occupation there.
As for Bai Ling's matter, Xiao Zhuo didn't take it seriously at all, so she naturally didn't take it to heart anymore.
Mei Dai held the reins of the war horse and said to her: "Sister, I..."
Seeing Mei Dai hesitate to speak, Shen Yuexi smiled and said: "Sister Mei, I know you will definitely stay in Xiliang and will not be able to fight with us. Don't worry, we will definitely come back to help you fight Yongwei. I have to I went after my husband."
After saying that, Shen Yuexi took the reins of the war horse from Qiang Lin and got on the horse neatly. The war horse circled in half a circle, neighed, and ran forward along the long queue.
Mei Dai watched Shen Yuexi's back gradually disappear into the dust and smoke, lowered her head and said: "Sister, forgive me..."
Shen Yuexi galloped along the road, looking at the troops marching on the road with joy.
The army sent out this time consisted of 40,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry.
In the hands of King Meicheng of Xiliang, these troops were equivalent to 4,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry. In the hands of Xiao Zhuo, these troops were 80,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry.
Under the flags fluttering in the wind, there are infantry troops wearing helmets and armor, with long halberds like a forest, reflecting the noon sun, and full of murderous intent. On the other side of the team, the hoofbeats of the cavalry rumbled, and thousands of horses galloped.
She caught up with Xiao Zhuo, kept pace with Xiao Zhuo, and said with a smile: "My husband finally has his own army. We don't have to look at other people's armies with envy. Do you have any feelings?"
"I have so many emotions that I could write a book." Xiao Zhuo joked in a rare moment.
"Then let me write it."
After Shen Yuexi said it, she regretted it. As for her words, she might as well forget it.
Xiao Zhuo said: "After we defeat King Qi and avenge our father, we will return to Xiliang to recapture the remaining two counties. Then I will lead my army to sweep Xirong and Beidi until the world is at peace."
"Sweep the world?" Shen Yuexi turned her face and looked at Xiao Zhuo playfully, "Are you going to be the emperor?"
"Of course I want to be the emperor," Xiao Zhuo looked at her with tender eyes, "but this country is only for you."
Shen Yuexi's heart beat loudly when she heard this.
In fact, she prefers to live an ordinary life with Xiao Zhuo. But since God has given him invincible military talent, if he doesn't use it, he will be unworthy of God's gift. Besides, the man should have Ling Yunzhi, how can he be like him? Women, too, only think about their own little world.
Prince Qi and his son are still here, and no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, but one thing she can confirm.
Since Xiao Zhuo wants to dominate the world, she will fight with him.
We depend on each other in life and death, never leave each other.
She has been with Xiao Zhuo since she came to this world. She has gone through so many hardships and overcome so many difficulties to get to where she is today. She believes that the future will only get better and better. When Xiao Zhuo unifies the world, she can stand confidently Let me tell everyone around Xiao Zhuo that it was not easy for her to be the queen.
Her greatest achievement was fighting a powerful pheasant...
Forget it, when the day comes, I'd better not mention that embarrassing incident to anyone. I was bitten to tears by the pheasant at that time, it was so embarrassing.
On the whole, she basically wins by lying down.
"Yue Xi, come, let's compete." Xiao Zhuo sped up his mount, "Let's see whose horse is faster."
Before Shen Yuexi could recover, Xiao Zhuo had already run out a few meters.
"You, you, you...actually cheated." She yelled, and then started chasing after her.
…
On the other side, the king of Qi and his son personally led an army of 100,000 to conquer Xiao Zhuo.
Xiao Beiheng rode his horse to the top of the high slope and looked at the mighty army below. One hundred thousand troops could not be seen to the end. The flags covered half of the sky, and the sound of footsteps made the earth tremble slightly.
"Father, the country cannot live without a king for a day," he said with great satisfaction to the Qi King Xiao Ming in front of him, "Why don't you ascend the throne first, and just let Xiao Zhuo conquer on his behalf?"
He didn't understand why his father didn't ascend the throne quickly since Emperor Yongde was dead.
As long as his father ascends the throne, he will be the prince.
The governor of Yuzhou has been defeated by the father and son. Now, except for Xiao Zhuo, there is no army in the world that threatens them. But if the father does not ascend the throne as emperor, his title as prince will not be confirmed.
Xiao Ming turned to look at him and said, "You are no match for Xiao Zhuo. You should lead the army for your father."
Xiao Beiheng was unhappy and said: "Father, you value Xiao Zhuo too much. My son defeated his entire army in Xiliang. Didn't father also know that?"
"That's because Xiao Kai's Jingzhou Army is holding you back in the south," King Qi said coldly, "If you fight against Xiao Zhuo alone, your chances of winning are definitely not good."
"Father, why do you always want to enhance other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige?" Xiao Beiheng's anger grew stronger.
He didn't understand why his father still thought he was no match for Xiao Zhuo, even though he clearly defeated Xiao Zhuo.
"A arrogant soldier will be defeated." King Qi glanced at him, then rode his horse down the hillside and left.
Xiao Beiheng stayed on the spot, lowering his head bitterly.
It is said that a arrogant soldier will be defeated. In the eyes of his father, he is not as good as Xiao Zhuo and will never be able to compare with him. Maybe only when Xiao Zhuo dies can his father stop comparing.
Well, this time the two armies faced off, he would definitely defeat Xiao Zhuo in an upright and complete manner to show his father.
"Song Zhen, order the 30,000 Dingbei Army under my command to speed up." He turned to Song Zhen behind him and said, "I want to fight Xiao Zhuo first."
Song Zhen hesitated for a moment and said to him: "His Royal Highness, my subordinates also think what King Qi said makes sense."
Xiao Beiheng glared at Song Zhen and said, "Even you think so?"
"Your Highness, I forgive you for speaking frankly. If the Xiliang army could support Nanping back then, His Highness should have been defeated." Song Zhen said in a low voice, "Now that only Xiao Zhuo is left, I suggest that His Highness be more prudent. , after defeating Xiao Zhuo, no one in the world of Yan can stop His Highness, please don’t lose big for small things.”
Xiao Beiheng closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them again, saying in a deep voice: "You are right."
He also knew in his heart that if it weren't for Mei Dai's letter, he would indeed have lost to Xiao Zhuo. Song Zhen was telling the truth.
"You were Xiao Zhuo's military advisor before. Do you know his tactics?" He looked at Song Zhen.
Song Zhen said in embarrassment: "Your Highness, Xiao Zhuo's tactics have no fixed rules at all. They all change according to the actual situation of the battle. Although my subordinates follow him, they don't know how he arranges his tactics."
"It doesn't matter," Xiao Beiheng waved his hand to signal him to stop talking, "My father and I have an army of 100,000, and I don't believe Xiao Zhuo can compete with us."
He did not believe that with the combined strength of King Qi and him, plus more than twice the army, they would not be able to defeat Xiao Zhuo.
