Nowadays, Xia Kingdom has black ships in the east, Later Tang Dynasty in the southeast, scholars and barbarians in the southwest, and Shang people are watching in the west. In addition, Xia Kingdom's military strength is now tight, and it can no longer fully replenish its troops. There are very few troops that can be mobilized. It can be said that it is a carrot.
A trap can affect the whole body. However, facing the aggressive offensive of the Later Tang Dynasty, Xia Yanbing had to come up with countermeasures after being ignored in many explanations.
After Su Le received the news from Shadow, he began to speculate on Xia Yanbing's response. Although the Eastern Xinjiang army numbered 150,000 to 60,000 people, according to the secret news, it seemed that the Eastern Xinjiang army had not been able to deal with the black ships during the battle.

On the mountain, the troops stopped and the confrontation returned again. This had to make people wonder whether the commander of the Eastern Xinjiang Army, Zhang Yang, had other motives. Therefore, Xia Yanbing did not dare to mobilize the Eastern Xinjiang Army easily; his own Southern Xinjiang Army now only had more than 35,000 soldiers.
people, and all
It is a cannon fodder camp. Even if it is pulled onto the battlefield, it will be wiped out with just one charge. It is better to place it in the north of Qingyun Mountain, which can still have some deterrent effect. Now Xia Yanbing can only move the Xijiang army to the west. From the current point of view,
,business
The country did not show any tendency to take advantage of the situation. Even though Xia Yanbing did not believe that the merchants would give up such a good opportunity, he had no choice but to mobilize the Western Xinjiang Army into the battlefield. As for the coach, he did not know whether to use Xing Long or someone else.
According to Su Le's speculation, even if Xia Yanbing throws all the Western Xinjiang troops on the battlefield to resist the Later Tang Dynasty, they may not be able to withstand it. After all, the Later Tang Dynasty is coming with a fierce force this time, and they have the momentum of not returning until the Xia Kingdom is destroyed.
, and his coach Lu You is even more powerful. I don’t know how Xia Yanbing will respond.
After calculating for a long time, Su Le only knew that Xia Yanbing's character would never admit defeat. He would definitely fight to the death. In an extreme emergency, even his 35,000 men would be thrown into the battlefield.
"After all, the Later Tang Dynasty is a big country, and its strength is far from comparable to that of Black Ships and Shiman. Speaking of which, this disaster was directly caused by me." Su Le said to Xia Yi with a self-deprecating smile.
"Master, in troubled times only heroes can succeed. Don't blame yourself." Xia Yi said calmly, "Although the current situation is extremely unfavorable to Xia Kingdom, it may not be a bad thing for us."
Su Le looked at Xia Yi in surprise, then asked with a smile: "I would like to hear the details."
"I am willing to follow the master because the master will definitely become the king in this troubled world. In the future, he will definitely be able to unify the world and establish a peaceful and equal world." Xia Yi said lightly, "The previous master was just a camp leader, no matter what
Neither strength nor fame is enough to have an impact on the Xia Kingdom, and now the master is young and already
He is the commander-in-chief of the southern Xinjiang army. In the eyes of many civilians and soldiers, he is a legend, and his reputation is big enough. Now he is also responsible for conquering the barbarians, so he has a reputation. If he can occupy the population and land of the barbarians, he will be
With a raised voice, refugees and ordinary soldiers from the Xia Kingdom will come to surrender one after another, and given time, it will be impossible to establish a country."
Su Le looked at Xia Yi in shock. He didn't expect that Xia Yi, who usually didn't say a word, would have such insights and analysis. In fact, what he said was exactly what he had been thinking for many days, but he had never thought about it.
Dare to show it, after all, he is still a minister of the Xia Kingdom, but he did not expect that Xia Yi was adding fuel to the flames for him, preventing him from thinking about the next path.
In fact, after Guifangcheng came back last time, Su Le was determined to overthrow the Shiman regime and turn the Shiman territory into the foundation of his future development. When he learned that although the Shiman royal family had been destroyed, he risked
After leaving the Blood Demon Sect, I wanted to take Xia Yi to stop the Blood Demon Sect's sacrificial ceremony.
, although they don’t know whether they can truly summon the Bleeding Demon God, but they would rather believe that it exists than believe that it does not exist, lest if they do summon the Bleeding Demon God, they and the Southern Xinjiang Army may be the first to bear the brunt. Therefore, I want to bring Xia Yi with me.
Let's go to Shiman together to destroy the Blood Demon Sect in one fell swoop to eliminate hidden worries.
"Sir, Su Le suddenly became enlightened after hearing what he said." Su Le was still polite to Xia Yi and said, "The last time He and Yue Ling actually went not to Qingyun Mountain for hunting, but to Guifang City, the capital of the barbarians.
.There, I got a piece of news that they have an organization called the Blood Demon Sect, which can use the Blood Demon Sword to summon the Bleeding Demon God. I don’t know if it’s true or not.”
"Blood Demon God?" Xia Yi narrowed his eyes as if he was remembering something. After a while, he said, "I heard from my father that several generals in the Xia Kingdom tried to annihilate the barbarians, but in the end they were all summoned by the barbarian king.
If something blocks him, he will eventually come back defeated. It seems that he is called the Blood Demon God."
"Now that their sacrificial holy object, the Blood Demon Sword, has been absorbed by me, the Blood Demon Sect has no choice but to start another sacrificial method, but it will take a long time. It seems to take a year. On the night of the full moon next month, they will use

ritual, I'm worried that they will really summon the Bleeding Demon God, and we will be quite passive then. Therefore, I want to destroy the Blood Demon Cult with my husband and steal the half of the sword." Su Le stopped talking to Xia Yi at this time.
I kept it and explained my meaning directly.
Xia Yi was about to answer when he heard a soldier reporting from outside: "Report, the emperor's envoy is coming quickly to report!"
Su Le quickly stepped forward and looked at the holy envoy who was dying from exhaustion and holding a yellow scroll in his hand.
"General Su, the emperor has an urgent order." The holy envoy handed the yellow scroll in his hand to Su Le and then passed out.
After Su Le asked someone to help the holy envoy go down to rest, he quickly opened it and saw that the yellow scroll read: The situation in the Xia Kingdom is critical, and the commander of the southern Xinjiang army, Pingnan General Su Le, was ordered to condemn the southern lord of the town, Xia Yi, to rush to Xuancheng immediately.
, join forces with Xinglong’s army to fight against the Later Tang army, there must be no mistake!
This is a very strange imperial edict. It's not that this edict is fake. It has Xia Yanbing's jade seal on it, which is very real. The strange thing is that Xia Yanbing clearly wants to mobilize Xia Yi, and Xia Yi is the Marquis of Zhennan, although it is just a false name.
, but Su Le is just a Pingnan general, and his status is much higher than Su Le, but Xia Yanbing insists on him to accept the order. This is because Xia Yi only listens to the orders of Su Le. Xia Yanbing really put in the effort.
After Su Le handed the imperial edict to Xia Yi, he smiled and asked: "Sir, it seems that the emperor is still thinking about you!"
After Xia Yi read it, he just asked calmly: "Master, Xia Yanbing knew that he could not mobilize me, so he gave the order from you. It seems that I must go to help in the battle. I wonder what the master's plan is?"
Su Le walked back and forth in the tent for a few steps, then said with a smile: "Since the emperor has issued a death order, as a minister of the Xia Kingdom, I cannot disobey the order. At least it is not that time yet. The Holy Envoy will definitely confirm
It was only after my husband went to Xuancheng that he was willing to go back to reply to the order. It seems that I can only trouble my husband for a hard trip."
"Master, there is no problem for my old servant to go, but if the barbarians really summon the Bleeding Demon God, won't the Southern Xinjiang Army be in disaster?" Xia Yi said with doubts.
"Sir, there is no need to worry about this matter. As far as I know, if the Blood Demon Sect wants to summon the Bleeding Demon God, it will be on the night of the full moon at the earliest. As long as we return before the 15th of next month, we can still eradicate the Blood Demon Sect and eliminate the hidden dangers."
." Su Le said to Xia Yi with a smile.
"According to my speculation, the people of the Later Tang Dynasty were well prepared for this attack. They would not be willing to stop at Xuancheng. The war would not end easily. I am afraid that I will not be able to get back in time." Xia Yi said worriedly.
"Sir, there is no need to worry about this. It's just that if you go to Xuancheng, you will inevitably have a battle with Lu You. It is said that Lu You has reached the ninth level of martial arts and his strength is unfathomable. You only need to assist Xing Long on the battlefield. If anything happens,
If you can't do it, get out
Come back. Sir, you must be careful here." Su Le actually just wanted Xia Yi to go to Xuancheng for a formality to fulfill his duties as a minister. As for whether he can influence the battle situation, that is not what Su Le needs to consider.
I just hope Xia Yi returns safely.
"Thank you for your concern, Master. I know what to do." Xia Yi said calmly.
After a while, the holy envoy woke up. After walking into the camp, he cupped his hands towards Su Leyi and said: "General Su, now the army of the Later Tang Dynasty has conquered several cities in our country. The situation is critical. Please go to Xuancheng quickly, Mr. Xia."
, join forces with Marshal Xing and strive to drive the Hou Tang rebel army out of our Xia territory as soon as possible."
"What the Holy Envoy said is true. I have just explained it to my husband. After the Holy Envoy wakes up, I will let you set off for Xuancheng." Su Le looked at the Holy Envoy. Unlike the previous Holy Envoy, he should
He was from the army and exuded a chilling aura. It seems that Xia Yanbing felt that the envoys in the palace were weak and was afraid that they would be delayed on the road, so he chose a soldier in fine clothing to be the envoy this time.
"That puts me at ease." When the envoy saw Su Le's reply, he smiled and said, "The emperor also told me that after Mr. Xia left, General Su must guard the southeast gate of Xia Kingdom to prevent the soldiers.
The barbarians are counterattacking. General Su has a heavy responsibility, but now the situation is worrying. I hope General Su will work with us to share the worries for our emperor!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Envoy, please tell the Emperor that Su Le must do his best to guard the southwest gate of Xia Kingdom and ensure that our southwest Xia Kingdom does not lose an inch of land!" Su Le said to the Holy Envoy with cupped hands.
"That's very good. General Su is a young hero. I admire you!" The holy envoy bowed his hands to Su Le and said, "I need to return to Beijing to resume my duties, so I won't stay here any longer. Take my leave!"
Looking at the Holy Envoy's leaving figure, Su Le knew that he would not leave just now. He would secretly observe whether Xia Yi would really go to Xuancheng before returning to Xia Yanbing.
"Sir, it's time for you to set off." Su Le smiled at Xia Yi and said.
Xia Yi nodded, gave Su Le a gift, and said: "Master, my old servant has not been with you for a while, so you must take good care of yourself. I will try my best to come back before the 15th of next month."
