I should marry the traitor

Chapter 63 I will win. I am the strongest.
The Xiliang Army was the most leisurely side, although Dong Bai had said in the court meeting that he wanted Li Changge to lead the army in person.

But the autumn harvest is coming soon, and the Xiliang army will undoubtedly wait until there is enough food after the harvest before heading north to Jizhou.

But for the Jizhou Army and the Beishuo Army, the battle was already imminent.

"Lord An, the scouts have discovered the advance troops of Yuan Shao's army ahead."

"In front? What position exactly?"

"Reporting to Lord An, it is the Jie Bridge."

"Is Yuan Shao crazy?"

The cold voice conveyed An Xinlin's doubts. What unit am I in? How dare you, Yuan Shao, go out of the city and fight with me in the field?

"She wants to defend the river? Isn't that too much of a disregard for our Beishuo Iron Cavalry?"

"Just relying on the young and strong men she just recruited? Aren't they afraid that they will be crushed by my black armor heavy cavalry?"

"Or has that Huang Guo'er finally decided to come out of her shabby little island, and she wants to get involved this time?"

"That's not right. There is no big river here. No matter how powerful the slave's navy is, what can it do?"

According to An Xinlin's guess, Yuan Shao would at most set up camp around Zhongshan County City, build fortifications, and defend the city.

As for leaving the city and having a battle in the wild, An Xinlin felt that the only possibility of such a thing happening was if the Dongyou Jiedushi Huang Guoer intervened.

Among the four military governors, Dong Bai and An Xinlin are both ambitious men who will wait for an opportunity to act as long as they feel they are sure of their chances.

The Nanli Jiedushi Mu Ying should be considered the only loyal minister among the four Jiedushis.

Nanli has always been very respectful to the central court, accepting the court's instructions, and never lacking in tribute every year.

If it weren't for the need to guard Yinglong, Mu Ying would most likely send troops to support the king when Dong Bai entered the capital.

They are nothing like the other three, who not only do not pay tribute, but also make various excuses every year to request an increase in military spending, mainly using their military power to gain power.

The governor of Dongyou, Huang Guoer, is the one who has always had an ambiguous attitude among the four governors.

Unlike Mu Ying's loyalty and obedience, and also unlike Dong Bai and An Xinlin's rebelliousness, Huang Guoer is in a relatively strange quantum state.

You say she is unfaithful, but Dongyou is obviously a small island, surrounded by the sea and has no worries. Moreover, Dongyou has a strong navy and its efficiency in entering Beijing along the river is even higher than that of Dongbai.

But so far, Huang Guoer has shown no signs of coveting imperial power.

You say she is loyal, but she did use her troops to gain power, and she didn't even issue a statement of condemnation when facing the inappropriate behavior of Dong Bai and An Xinlin.

And in theory, the Dongyou specialty, Haixuanbing, which should be sent to the imperial court every year, has not been sent for many years.

Of course, only she herself knows whether this thing still exists.

To be honest, An Xinlin felt that this bitch was most likely just a conservative dog. It didn't matter who held the magic weapon, as long as it didn't affect her being the local tyrant.

"The Dongyou side should not have intervened. We have neither found the Phoenix flag nor the Dongyou navy's ships."

"How dare Yuan Shao do that? Does she really think she can defend against it with just her bunch of new recruits and a small river?"

The fact that Huang Guoer did not intervene was consistent with An Xinlin's judgment. So the question was, who gave Yuan Mochu the courage?
"Master An, you may have misunderstood."

Shi Ming's expression was also very subtle. An Xinlin was not the only one who couldn't figure it out. She was even more confused after receiving the report from the scouts.

"What's the misunderstanding?"

"Yuan Shao's troops did not defend the river. About 3,000 of them crossed the river bank, as if they were planning to fight with their backs to the river."

……

There was total silence in the tent, and even the Origami King, who was not very good at commanding troops, was shocked.

No, what is this operation?
"hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

After a moment's silence, An Xinlin laughed. She laughed because she was angry.

She knew that Yuan Shao seemed to look down on her.

Shi Ming put it more tactfully, fighting with his back to the river, but everyone understood.

What do you mean by fighting with one's back to the river? This is clearly a fight with one's back to the water.

The shallow river could not stop the cavalry from crossing the river, but it would still take a long time for the infantry to cross the river. With the cavalry threatening them in front, crossing the river would definitely be a death sentence, so the soldiers had no choice but to fight with their backs to the river.

But the problem is that whether it is a decisive battle depends on who the two sides are.

You are just a newly recruited soldier, and the ones opposite you are elite veterans who have been fighting on the border for many years. You are here to compete with them in fighting will, right?

In war, you can't win by just shouting about weird things like friendship, courage, faith, and bonds.

"We seem to be looked down upon, Shi Ming?"

"Master An, don't be angry. He is just a clown."

"Why should Lord An and Lord Shi care? Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

Looking at An Xinlin who was accumulating anger, the paper man incarnation of the Origami King stood up slightly: "In my opinion, at this critical moment, Yuan Shao is so arrogant, isn't this a godsend?"

"We only need one big victory to completely defeat these dogs that are blocking the way of Jizhou."

"Isn't this one step closer to the great cause?"

After hearing what the Origami King said, An Xinlin agreed and said:
"Hahahahahaha, your Majesty is absolutely right."

"This clown is courting his own destruction. Let her have a good look at the might of our Beishuo army!"

"Please, Your Majesty, hold the line with your central army. My cavalry will clear the way and disperse these Jizhou lambs. Please, Your Majesty, help gather the surrendered soldiers."

"It's easy."

The king nodded slightly, then his expression changed slightly.

An Xinlin noticed the change in Yuan's expression and asked casually:

"Does your Majesty have any questions?"

"It's nothing. Something happened to my original body. There are many disputes in the Gobi Desert. It's normal to have some minor conflicts."

Upon hearing that it was an internal affair of Beidi, An Xinlin had no interest in asking more questions and immediately gave the order.

"Since Yuan Shao sent 3,000 people."

"Then I will also send 3,000 people."

"Order the three thousand black armored cavalry to put on their armor immediately."

"Line up and wait for orders."

"And you will not be allowed to eat any more food from now on."

"Logistics, make a fire and prepare food."

"Wait for my three thousand cavalrymen to return in triumph!"

At this time, the paper man incarnation of the Origami King looked normal. He looked at An Xinlin and asked, "Master An, will you win?"

"Will win!"

An Xinlin's tone was so decisive.

"I am the strongest."

"What kind of role model is Yuan Mochu?"

"A mere 91% of your bloodline is worthy of being compared with my 93% of bloodline?"

"Are these peasant soldiers who were put together in a patchwork manner worthy of being compared with my bloodthirsty Beishuo cavalry?"

"She, Yuan Mochu, seems to have made a mistake in something?"

“She is the challenger.”

There was infinite self-confidence in An Xinlin's eyes, but this was not a loss for no reason. In terms of her own fighting power, she was indeed the best in the world.

However, the Origami King looked at An Xinlin's confident eyes with a blank expression, which was somewhat intriguing.
