Unparalleled Concubine

This is normal, no one wants to be a shameless rebel for the rest of his life, since there is no way to rebel successfully, then he should follow others honestly.

Li Xin, who was dressed in black, stomped off the head of a wild flower, then turned to Mu Ying and said, "When is he going to come?"

Originally, Li Xin's strategy for the Southwest was to use the Mu family to skip work and leverage the situation in southern Xinjiang, but it was a time of peace, and once a war broke out, the power of the Mu family seemed a bit insufficient.

Li Xin needs the help of His Highness Nan Shu.

Coincidentally, the adherents of Nanshu were also a little upset about the banner supported by the Nanhou Mansion. After all, they had a hatred for the destruction of the country with the Jin Dynasty, so how could they support a prince of the Jin Dynasty in an open and honest manner?

"It is estimated that they will leave in two days."

Mu Ying said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, he is probably also very anxious now. The more Li Shen plays the role of a loyal minister of the Great Jin over there, the more pressure he will face."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Send him a letter, tell him to be careful when leaving Shu, and don't let Li Shen find out, otherwise that Marquis of Pingnan might not allow him to come out just like that."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou, Li Xing is a cautious person. Since he wants to see you, he will definitely be fully prepared."

Li Xin nodded, turned around and continued walking in front of the two with his hands behind his back.

Suddenly, Li Xin looked back at Zhao Jia.

"Brother You'an, give me your opinion on the situation?"

Zhao Jia lowered his eyebrows and said, "What does Hou Ye want to hear?"

"Tell me, will Ye Shaobao and Li Shen fight immediately, and how will the outcome be?"

"There won't be a fight for the time being."

Zhao Jia's tone was firm.

"Most of Ye Shaobao's food and grass is here with Lord Hou. The logistics do not allow him to take risks easily. As for the Pingnan Army, they are fighting against the world with one corner, and they don't dare to take the initiative to attack. Let's look at it later. , until Lord Hou and Ye Shaobao meet up, they won't fight."

Li Xin said lightly: "If they fight, who will win?"

Zhao Jia lowered his head and hesitated for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and said, "It's likely that the Pingnan Army will win."

Li Xin looked back at the scholar who was born in Chen Guogong's mansion and said with a smile: "How can you see it?"

"Because Pingnan Army can't afford to lose."

Zhao Jia bowed his head.

"So this first battle, they have to win."

Chapter 477 Li Xin's Ambition

What Zhao Jia said was very correct.

The background of southern Xinjiang is much worse than that of the imperial court, so no matter what, they must not lose the first battle. If they lose the first battle, then there is no need to create such a rebellion. Everyone directly binds themselves to Beijing and waits for death. up.

The foundation of the imperial court is the entire rear area, while the foundation of southern Xinjiang lies in its explosive power. They can supply 20 soldiers in a short period of time. With this explosive power, they have to bite the imperial court hard.

If you don't take this first bite, Southwest will have no chance.

Li Xin walked in the front, lowered his head and considered for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, let's do what we should do, and wait and see."

The so-called do what you have to do, which means that in the early stage of the battle, or before Li Xin arrives at the front line, he will not interfere with the affairs of the front line. How to fight over there, or whether to fight or not, is up to Ye Ming or Li Xin. cautious thing.

It has nothing to do with Li Xin.

Mu Ying nodded, and went down to work.

At this time, it was already evening, and Li Xin's troops began to set up camp on the spot, lighting fires and making meals. Zhao Jia followed behind Li Xin slowly, lowered his head and said, "Master Hou, you are so keen on the Southwest War, what do you want?" What did you get in the southwest battle?"

At this time, there was no one around, just the two of them.

Li Xin glanced back at his dog-headed military adviser, and then he chuckled: "Brother You'an is so smart, can't you see that I just want to get credit behind Senior Brother Ye?"

Zhao Jia shook his head slightly, he looked straight at Li Xin.

"Master Hou, at a young age, you are already a second-rank military general of the imperial court, and at the same time the Marquis of Jing'an of the imperial court. If this position is just behind Uncle Ye, even if you successfully wiped out southern Xinjiang, it will not be a big deal for Lord Hou. How useful it is."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jia paused for a moment, and continued: "When the old man asked me to follow Lord Hou, I went to check some of Lord Hou's past, you would not do such a business where you spend a lot of money for a small amount of money. .”

Having said that, Zhao Jia glanced at the direction Mu Ying was in, bowed his head and said: "If I remember correctly, Brother Mu is the thread that Hou Ye buried in southern Xinjiang a few years ago, and Hou Ye was just a Yulin at that time. Wei's school lieutenant."

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and then gave the big-headed scholar a blank look.

"At that time, I just wanted to bring some troubles to the Pingnan Hou Mansion. How could I have thought of the current situation? As for the line, it was even nonsense. When I talked about southern Xinjiang affairs with the Mu family through Muying, I was already The Marquis of Jing'an."

Zhao Jia let out a long breath, feeling relieved.

"At first, I thought Lord Hou planned all the things in two or three years. When I thought of this last night, I was covered in cold sweat. Now it seems that I overestimated Lord Hou."

Li Xin smiled lightly.

"I came to the Southwest, first to see the collapse of Pingnanhou's mansion, and second, to have some personal affairs of my own. Brother You'an, I have never been a scheming person. From before to now, I spend most of my time You are also going with the waves, pushed by the general trend, you think too much of my scheming."

To be precise, Li Xin was pushed away by the "general trend" of Emperor Chengde in the past.

Emperor Chengde pushed him to the position of General Habayashi Wei Youlang, and then the restless General Li Dalang abruptly jumped to his current position through Wei Wangfu.

Zhao Jia was silent for a while, and finally bowed respectfully to Li Xin.

"I misunderstood Master Hou."

As he spoke, he looked left and right at the sky, then lowered his head and said, "Master Hou, it's getting late soon, so I won't disturb Master Hou."

Li Xin waved his hand.

"Brother You'an, please go ahead."

Zhao Jia paced away.

Li Xin looked to the southwest.

In fact, what Zhao Jia said was quite right. Li Xin had planned to come to the Southwest for so long, of course not only to "check in" with Ye Ming, but this time Li Xin wanted to use the Southwest battle situation to create a force of his own.

Li Xin has been an official for more than two years. From the Habayashi Guard to the Imperial Army, he has indeed had a large group of subordinate brothers, but whether it is the Habayashi Guard or the Imperial Army, they are essentially the emperor's things. Li Xin is just helping the emperor to watch

To put it bluntly, if the emperor wants to kill Li Xin one day, the Habayashi guards will at most turn a blind eye, pretend not to see Li Xin, or let Li Xin go, and the imperial guards will definitely mention it. Dao, I want to take Li Xin's head to the court to receive a reward!

No one will stand on Li Xin's side.

He needs a power of his own. This power does not need to be particularly large, but it must be able to take root in the southwest. With this power, Li Xin will not only have the ability to protect himself immediately, but at least he can have his own real foundation. As for what it is like now, like a rootless duckweed.

Of course, no one can say these things for the time being, not even Zhao Jia who is beside him.
