Wei Xiao was shocked when he heard Zhou Chengzhi's words, and he also felt something in Zhou Chengzhi's words.
So he smiled and said, "General Zhou has been joking, and he has always been in order."
"The Second Prince, if the elders are in order, why should the Fourth Prince be targeted at the Crown Prince everywhere?" Zhou Chengzhi asked directly.
Wei Xiao didn't speak at this time, nor did he dare to speak anymore.
Zhou Chengzhi also laughed intentionally and found an excuse to divert the topic, but these few words made Wei Xiao unable to settle down.
The next day, the group returned to the fortress on the west bank of Fenghu Lake, and everything seemed to be back to the previous year. However, as the weather became warmer, the matter of moving west had to be put in front of us.
When the first rain fell in spring, it seemed that it could not escape the topic. However, at the first meeting of the entire army, everyone seemed very silent. No one spoke about how to fight westward.
Wei Xiao just kept silent, but he heard a rumor. After the meeting, Zhou Chengzhi went to find Ning Lin, and it seemed that some noisy sounds were heard in the coach's tent.
The meeting continued the next day, and was still silent, but compared to the first time, at least at the final meeting, I decided to test the enemy situation first and then take the next move.
By the time it was dark, Wei Xiao was ready to rest, but Wang Gan, who was the closest bodyguard around him, came to report that Ning Shuai was here.
Wei Xiao also came out to greet him immediately, but Ning Lin had already come in and sat down with each other.
Ning Lin looked at Wei Xiao and said, "Second Your Highness, General Zhou came to me yesterday, and decided to test the enemy situation today. I thought about it for a while and planned to take some people out in person in a few days. I wonder if Your Highness is willing to go out with me?"
"It's just a test, Ning Shuai wants to go in person?" Wei Xiao was a little surprised.
Ning Lin said seriously: "Some things must be viewed before they can be confirmed."
"Okay!" Wei Xiao felt something in Ning Lin's words, but he agreed.
Seeing Wei Xiao agreeing, Ning Lin didn't say anything else and left.
Seven or eight days later, a 50,000 army set out tentatively. The target of the attack was more than 150 miles away, a place called Bailangyuan, because a kind of weed that will bloom white in summer grows here, and when the wind blows, it looks like a wave.
In order to deal with the high-level Wei army, Dai State also built a camp here, and there were a lot of people stationed here, and the commander was Xiao Wuxun, a famous general of the Dai clan.
When the 50,000 troops set up their formation directly, Xiao Wuxun had no intention of defending the city and directly dispatched cavalry and advanced guerrillaly.
The cavalry of both sides directly hedged, but when the number of people was advantageous, they were at a disadvantage. The cavalry of Dai also broke through the gap and rushed towards the two wings to completely encircle and disperse the Wei army formation.
The Wei army immediately gave up the attack, began to fight and retreat, shrink back, widen the attack distance between the opponent's cavalry, while the cavalry of its own quickly returned to the rescue, and the escort infantry began to retreat.
"Second Your Highness, I don't know what Your Highness has seen in this battle? I know that Your Highness also understands military tactics, and has been learning hard for the past six months." Just after Ning Le ordered the army to retreat, he suddenly asked Wei Xiao, who had been watching the battle by his side.
"Our cavalry is not as good as Dai Guo. Xiao Wuxun is also a famous general who is good at fighting. He is still at ease in commanding so many people. If it weren't for my Great Wei, they were all soldiers who are good at fighting, they would probably not retreat, but be defeated." A smile said fairly.
Ning Lin sighed at this moment, "Your Highness, what does Your Majesty want? I know. I think Your Majesty also knows that in terms of national strength, the Great Wei is second only to the Great Xia, and is much stronger than Dai State. But simply fighting, we really can't do it in such a place. If Dai State does not have civil strife or extremely serious natural disasters, it will not be able to be destroyed in a short time. The only way is to continuously build camps and advance step by step, and to continuously cut the cavalry from the horizontal place, and then erode it step by step, and eventually destroy Dai State. Unfortunately, Your Majesty is unwilling to wait, because my method will take at least ten years to destroy Dai State. Your Majesty will not see it when you are over fifty years old."
"Ship Ning, are you persuading me?" Wei Xiao asked.
"Your Highness, when you first came, we were all worried about you, but not only did you not want to accept it, but you merged with the soldiers and sympathized with the soldiers. You are very outstanding. General Zhou came to me before. I thought about it and decided to make it clear to you, afraid that you would not understand, so..."
"Ship Ning, you don't have to. In this battle, at least three or five thousand soldiers were killed or injured. I understand your intentions, and I know how to do it." Wei Xiao was already very moved when he heard this. No one in the king could respect him. Here, this famous coach of kindness and kindness in the world made such a big deal in order to make himself understand.
"Your Highness is broad-minded. In this regard, your Highness is very similar to the late emperor, which is also admirable." Ning Lin couldn't help but praise him.
Wei Xiao was also quite moved when he heard that he was like Grandpa Wang. Unfortunately, he knew that he had no chance, unless the person in front of him could fully support him, was it just possible for the other party? Wei Xiao was shocked by his thoughts.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid your highness will help you in the next thing," Ning Lin said.
Wei Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know what Ning Shuai needs me to do? As long as I can do it, as long as I am good at the essence of the Great Wei, I will never refuse."
"Okay, since Your Highness agrees with my plan to win step by step, we need to cooperate when reporting. The local camp is 150 or 60 miles away from us, and we can only make a detour and sprint space. If we build a camp, it can only be within a hundred miles, and the local area will not dare to enter this distance, because he will be exhausted from long-distance raids. After that, I plan to build a camp between our camp and local camp, but I need to claim that it was built by the enemy and we seized it. When the camp is repaired, we can attack and take down the enemy camp just now. However, Your Majesty probably won't understand the reason, so you need your Highness's help." Ning Linzai said carefully.
"I understand that my father does not understand military affairs, but only understands power and strategy." Wei Xiao also revealed Wei Nao's great weakness.
"In this way, everything depends on Your Highness." Ning Lin also dismounted and bowed deeply when he saw Wei Xiao like this.
"Ship Ning." Wei Xiao saw it and also dismounted and supported Ning Lin.
"The Second Prince... Alas!" Ning Lin looked at Wei Xiao, as if he had something to say, but in the end he still didn't say it.
When Ning Lin followed him and left, Lu Sheng immediately rode his horse over, looked at Wei Xiao who was a little dazed, and shouted softly: "Your Highness!"
