Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1385 Confrontation between Apprentice and Master

Xiao Xu smiled, patted her on the head again, and then withdrew his hand, "Whether it's active or passive, the most fearful thing is that the other party will not move."

"Yes." She nodded, but fell into deep thought.

Seeing that she was still restless, he was silent for a while, and found a topic to divert her attention, "Don't you think what he did today looks familiar?"

Chu Qingyan blinked, and after being reminded by the big ice cube, she seemed to be a little familiar. Thinking of a sudden flash of inspiration in her mind, she couldn't help but blurted out, "Isn't this the trick I used to deal with Pang Huang at that time?" ?"

After she finished speaking, she frowned again, "But it's a little different. Back then I went into battle lightly, and he led an army of [-]. His difficulty was greater than mine."

Xiao Xu smiled coldly, "He was able to evade our eyes and ears and successfully brought such a huge army to us without being noticed, because he was familiar with the methods of my spies to do this. "

Before the big ice cube finished speaking, she had already guessed it, and couldn't help but tugged at his sleeve and said, "So you taught him how to use spies before?"

These words dimmed those black eyes, because he didn't have the intention of seizing the throne, he just wanted to defend the country wholeheartedly and protect the people, and this fourth brother was also the candidate for the crown prince in his mind, and the fourth brother was pure and gentle, He will slowly teach him the experience he has gained over the years. He thinks that if one day he no longer serves as an official in the court, he can completely trust the three armies and the world to him. It's just that I didn't expect that people are not as good as heaven, and plans can't keep up with changes.

But what he did back then was treated as a sharp knife by the fourth brother. Thinking about it now, it is too ridiculous.

"That's it."

Sensing the change in Big Ice Cube's mood, Chu Qingyan's friendship with Xiao Ran faded a little bit, and he was probably the one who retaliated with kindness.

"He not only used yours, but also learned from mine. He fought against us with all means. I dare say that this apprentice wants to put us two masters to death."

Angry is angry, but there is nothing she can do about him. At this time, she wants to comfort Big Bingcube even more, and she can't help but tease herself.

Knowing her thoughts, Xiao Xu couldn't help but loosen his brows, and smiled at her, "The Tao is one foot tall and the devil is ten feet high. Whether he can please him or not depends on the final result, although I don't know for now. What do you think, but we can also see how far this apprentice has learned, maybe you will be proud of the result."

Seeing that he was still in the mood for joking, Chu Qingyan couldn't help laughing along with him.

Yes, you will know if it is a mule or a horse.

It was dawn, and without the cover of darkness, the scene on the battlefield could be clearly seen, and the two armies were still sticking to each other endlessly.

"Fourth Highness, as you expected, we tried our best to entangle them, so they didn't realize our purpose. Fourth Highness really has a clever plan." Yan Shi received the following report and immediately conveyed it to Xiao Ran. Finally, he couldn't help but sigh road.

Xiao Ran pulled his lips lightly, "My imperial brother is a thoughtful person, if I don't use such a desperate way of fighting, I'm afraid he won't be aware of it until now, maybe it's because my highness has never fought a victory in the past, It will be easier for them to believe, and now I am also doing whatever I want, rampaging without thinking."

"The Fourth Highness is smart and wise, and can even understand the other party's thoughts, which makes the general admire him very much." Yan Shi hurriedly praised him courteously.

Xiao Ran waved his hand, "I'll wait for the victory to say these words, where are the second group of people now?"

When it came to the business, Yan Shi also became serious, "I can arrive today."

"Okay, when everyone arrives, we will follow the plan."

Xiao Ran stood on the hillside, his body was covered with dew all night, but he didn't feel cold, on the contrary, his blood seemed to be boiling, as if a fire was ignited in his heart.

He had been looking forward to a face-to-face confrontation with the emperor, but he didn't want it to be on such an occasion.

But his obsession with Qingyan filled him with fighting spirit. This time he wanted to prove to her that there is not only such an outstanding man as Brother Huang in this world. Defeating with her own hands, I believe that she will definitely look at him with admiration.

With this in mind, Xiao Ran couldn't help but want to see what kind of expressions those people would have when his plan matured.

When the two sides were fighting in full swing, an army from nowhere suddenly joined Xiao Ran's army. There were at least fifty or sixty thousand people who came, and there was a huge disparity in manpower all of a sudden, and Xiao Xu's side was defeated one after another.

When Xiao Xu received the news, many generals had rushed into the main tent, bringing a lot of bad news.

The soldiers had been fighting all night, and their mental and physical strength were a little tired. They thought that the two would have a short truce, but they didn't expect the other party to come to reinforce them. Their physical strength was stronger than theirs, and they couldn't resist.

Xiao Xu clasped his fingers on the table, his expression was a little heavy, "So this is his last trick."

He led the first batch of troops to carry out a sneak attack, attracting their full attention, and then when they were exhausted from fighting, the second batch of troops arrived. At this time, how could the exhaustion of the army be worth their energetic reinforcements?

This abacus is really well played!

But it won't be just that.

Because using numbers to delay is the most stupid tactic.

"The opponent came too suddenly, and our defense was breached as soon as we reacted." There was already a huge disparity in physical strength between the two sides, and they were already at a disadvantage. Coupled with the large number of people, if they simply confronted each other head-on, they would have no chance of winning. up.

"Well, the king knows."

Xiao Xu's calm and calm appearance, like a cool wind blowing away the restlessness in the tent, the anxious generals couldn't help showing shame. They followed the prince to see the big wind and waves, and now they encounter some troubles. up?

Chu Qingyan was a little worried about these generals at first, but seeing that they were quickly adjusting their state, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Turning her head, she saw the tall and handsome figure drawing circles on the map. , I heard him speak coldly, with a clear voice, "I see."

"Did you find anything?" She leaned closer, and as he looked at the map, the other generals also looked over.

"They deployed layers of troops in the southeast, north, south, and north, with the purpose of driving us to the west."

As soon as Xiao Xu finished speaking, Chu Qingyan looked to the west from his gesture, which was a mountain range connected by two or three high mountains, and couldn't help wondering, "Isn't he afraid that we won't be able to find us after we enter the mountain?"

"He should have already deployed." Xiao Xu dropped his pen and smiled coldly, "Order people to go down and withdraw troops into the mountain."

Without hesitation, everyone took orders.
