Raid

Chapter 256
As for the hundred or so people who came to raid just now, it is naturally impossible to hurt them much, so Xu Huanzhi arranged for some of the soldiers to hide.

One was to show weakness—after all, Li Shengxi had only expected Ke Yongzhao to come alone at the beginning, but he didn't expect two to come.If Ke Yongzhao was really an insider, he led an army to help, and saw that they had only a few soldiers left, what would he do?Continue to make excuses?how is this possible?

If she is the ghost, she will definitely take this opportunity to kill all the people in this group.Maybe he can't incite the soldiers, but as long as he says they are pretending, under such circumstances, the soldiers will naturally believe in their leader.As long as there is no proof of death, no one will know that he killed him.

What's more, even if you know it, it doesn't matter.The death of her and Xu Huan, Jinzhong, no, the state capital along the Lijiang River is bound to be in chaos, even if Mu Jing is there, it will not help.He just needs to flee overnight, or stay in Xizhou, join hands with the Xirong people, take Xizhou, and occupy Wangling Pass.In this way, the morale of the Southern Jin Dynasty will inevitably be low, and Xirong will advance eastward, just around the corner.

Second, of course there are other reasons.

Li Shengxi pretended not to know, she looked at Xu Huanzhi solemnly: "Huanzhi, what's going on?"

Xu Huanzhi sighed, "Your Highness doesn't know something. The last general led 1000 people to ambush the pursuers, chased them to the canyon, and was ambushed by the bandits. Although they fought back properly, they suffered a lot of losses. Counting those in the barracks, we are afraid that we will be killed all at once." More than five hundred people went."

"What kind of villain? Such audacity, dare to ambush His Highness's army in Jinzhong territory. It's lawless." An Huai's face was full of anger.

"Their actions are quite methodical, and they even look like they are in the army. Maybe they have something to do with the group of rebels that His Highness exterminated before." Xu Huanzhi said deliberately.

It is not a secret that Li Sheng wiped out 5000 people before the attack, and she also reported to the heavens about the prince of Chu.

Li Shengxi's complexion is also ugly, her brows are angry, but she has deep meaning, "It may not be the rebels, before you find out, it's better not to get dirty with the rebels. The rebels are indeed hateful, but if someone uses The name of the rebels is making trouble, and their behavior may not be any better than that of the rebels. Stay here, arrange it, and ask someone to investigate carefully."

"Yes." Liu Jinzhi nodded.

"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Rong Zhi on the side suddenly spoke.

Everyone looked at this slightly frail scholar, in a room full of military generals' tents, Rong Zhi was indeed a different kind of existence.But because everyone's eyes had been on Li Shengxi before this, and Rong Zhi hadn't spoken, they didn't pay much attention.

"Although the people who ambushed this time were due to a surprise attack, they caused His Royal Highness to suffer such heavy losses. It can be seen that the attack is menacing, and the scale and strength are not small. Moreover, His Highness and the commander-in-chief have not noticed it before, which shows that they have been in ambush for a long time. It's definitely not a temporary idea." Rong Zhi's voice paused slightly, although Li Shengxi and Xu Huanzhi didn't tell him what the specific deployment was, but at this point, he also guessed a little bit.

If so many people were really lost, it meant that the fighting outside was serious. Since it was serious, how could Li Shengxi sit in the tent and read a book calmly?What's more, he is also an experienced person, and the soldiers on guard will fight against the rebels.

Li Shengxi suddenly understood the profound meaning of Rong Zhi's words, and she quickly agreed: "Rong Changshi is right."

His eyes turned on An Huai and Ke Yongzhao, "In this case, with such a large scale and such careful preparations, the two generals, didn't you notice anything before? General An is fine, General Ke, you But the guard of Xizhou is only a few miles away from Xizhou, so General Ke didn't notice such an ambush before? It's no wonder that Xi Rong invaded the border for his negligence."

"I will be convicted at the end." Ke Yongzhao was ashamed and indignant.

An Huai has a violent temper: "Where do you come from as a white-faced scholar? Your Highness has never spoken, so how can you point and point?"

"That's enough, An Qing." Li Sheng glanced at An Huai, An Huai quickly shut up, and she said again: "The strategist is the chief history of the palace, and even the staff of the eldest princess' mansion."

Li Shengxi looked at Rong Zhi again, "Collector, don't talk nonsense. Now that they are on the front line of the Xirong army, they are on the front line wholeheartedly, and there are occasional negligence."

Even though An Huai was dissatisfied in his heart, he had to look at Rong Zhi: "I was rude and offended Chang Shi."

"The general is serious." Rong Zhi cupped his hands, and continued: "However, even if you are concerned about the front line, Your Highness, you must guard against the rear. If you haven't returned to Qingxia, under such internal and external attacks, I'm afraid the Southern Jin Dynasty will be restless."

An Huai was surprised by Rong Zhi's "reasonable and unforgiving", but he thought of Li Shengxi's words just now, he didn't refute, but just gave Rong Zhi a look.

On the other hand, Ke Yongzhao nodded, "What Rong Changshi said is reasonable. No matter what the situation is, a general should not be negligent, otherwise it is easy to make a big mistake inadvertently."

Li Shengxi sighed, and said: "The 500 people can't die in vain, stay here, in addition to finding out the culprit's identity, but also give a generous burial to the soldiers, and give more pensions to their families as a way of comforting them."

"Yes." Rujin nodded.

"Since this person has such ability, I am afraid that the strength is not small. Although there is no danger tonight, he has suffered heavy losses. Your Highness is valuable. If something happens again, I am afraid that the troops in the western region will be unstable. Xizhou is not far from here. General and General An are coming with troops again, why not ask His Highness to move into the city first and temporarily stay in the mansion of the last general to avoid further problems." Ke Yongzhao suggested.

Rong Zhi nodded, "That's fine too. In that case, I will bring people back with you, Huanzhi will stay here, bury the soldiers, and then send a group of people away from General Ke to search the mountains to see if there are still people left." There is no remnant of thieves."

Li Shengxi became suspicious of Ke Yongzhao, but he still trusted Ke Yongzhao's soldiers.

Even if there is an inner ghost here, he dare not openly instigate the trilogy to join Xi Rong.Even if it is a rebellion, it is fine, but if you vote for Xirong, you don't even need the court to do anything.

Generals may abandon their country and forget their hearts for some reason, but soldiers will not.Many of their robes died at the hands of Xirong, and many of the soldiers in the Jinzhong army were from Jinzhong. Among them, [-]% to [-]% had their relatives tortured and killed by the Xirong people. It is impossible for them to surrender to the enemy .

Li Shengxi didn't trust the generals, but he would definitely trust the soldiers.

"Yes." Everyone took orders and quickly cleaned up.
