Unparalleled Concubine

"That's not true, it's just that the subordinates are not familiar with military affairs, so it's a bit difficult to handle."

Li Xin smiled slightly: "How is Mianzhu City during my absence?"

Zhao Jia looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, in the past ten days, Jincheng has sent a lot of swords and armor weapons, and there are thirty to four million sets."

"However, in the past two days, they stopped sending things over, and the subordinates did not contact them."

Having said that, Zhao Youan's voice became even lower.

"When receiving these swords and armors, my subordinates were careful and only let the people of Habayashi Guard do it. Now everything is in a large courtyard in the west of Mianzhu City. At least there will not be too much news circulating in the imperial army."

This army is not directly related to Li Xin, so it is difficult to block a lot of news, such as Li Xin receiving Jincheng's equipment.

Once this matter reaches the ears of the emperor, it is easy to understand that Cheng Li Xin has joined forces with Jincheng to deceive the emperor.

Therefore, Zhao Jia was very cautious in doing things, and even carefully blocked the news.

Li Xin smiled and said, "Brother Youan, don't be so nervous. Even if it leaked out, let's just say that someone in the Pingnan Army was instigated by us."

"As for how many sets of sword armor they sent, no one will know if we don't tell them."

Zhao Jia raised his head and glanced at Li Xin, and then said with emotion: "This subordinate has been terrified these days, and I'm afraid it will spoil the important matter of Lord Hou."

"The subordinates don't know when they will be able to do so lightly like Master Hou."

Li Xin gave this guy a white look.

"Stop flattering, I don't like to hear it."

Zhao Jia smiled awkwardly, and continued: "Master Hou, these swords and armors are all good quality equipment, should we select some and send them to Hanzhou..."

Li Xin frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"No, it's good to keep these saber armors in Mianzhu. When the Southwest War is over, we will use these saber armors to report the head to the imperial court and ask for credit for our brothers."

"Brother You'an, please inform me that the defense of Mianzhu will be stepped up from now on. The rebels of the Pingnan Army are in a hurry, and the Jiange is in a hurry. It is very likely that the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry."

Zhao Jia bowed his head.

"My subordinate, go here."

Chapter 573

After Jincheng bowed to Li Xin, the three forces in the southwest, Jincheng, Hanzhou Nanshu adherents, and Li Xin's Zhengxi army, all the forces in the southwest except Ye Ming's subordinate Li Xin, all of them were out of control. It fell into Li Xin's grasp.

With Ye Ming blocked by the Jiange and unable to enter Shu, the direction of the Southwest and the ending of all the people in the Southwest will actually be carried out according to Li Xin's will.

Therefore, he is qualified to be the director in charge of the Southwest, and he is also qualified to set the script.

And a large part of this costly play was performed for Emperor Taikang who was far away in the capital.

In the next few days, the battle reports from Jiange spread all the way to Mianzhu. The battle at Jianmen Pass was extremely fierce. With Ye Ming's wave after wave, Li Yan's troops could no longer hold on.

Originally, even if there were only 1 or 2 people at Jianmen Pass, it could block Ye Ming for at least half a year to a year, but now the Jiange, the backup was cut off by Mianzhu.

They had no way to get any assistance from Jincheng, so after more than half a month of onslaught, the defense materials on Jiange's side could not last long, Li Yan had no choice but to send a letter to Jincheng for help.

General Zhu Guo, who was in Jincheng, was also extremely anxious after receiving Li Yan's letter. He had no choice but to cut off the rescue route by Mianzhu. .

At this time, most of the upper echelons of the Pingnan Army already knew the news that their general was about to surrender, but the middle and lower echelons of the Pingnan Army did not know, so Li Shen personally led the troops to break through Mianzhu and welcome back the name of His Royal Highness , 5 to [-] people were ordered, and they came to Mianzhu mightily.

At this time, Lord Jing'an moved a chair and sat on the tower of Mianzhu, watching the dark tide like ants in Jincheng slowly coming towards Mianzhu.

Li Xin stood up slowly, glanced through the binoculars at the approaching crowd, with a serious expression on his face.

The Pingnan Army has already sent [-] to [-] swords, armor, bows and crossbows. It stands to reason that even if they are coming to attack the city, these people should not be fully armored. In the Southern Army, almost everyone was armored.

One must know that the current Pingnan army is not completely lifeless. As long as they really take down Mianzhu, they can open up the road to Jiange and run through the entire southwest.

At that time, this game of dead chess will have a way out.

That Zhu Guo general was not willing to admit defeat, judging by his current appearance, he wanted to make a fake show and attack Mianzhu in a serious way.

After all, if it is more realistic, the two of them have not formally fought against each other until now, and Li Shen will inevitably feel unwilling to admit defeat if he does not fight. Therefore, even if the Pingnan Army wins Mianzhu in a short time, the possibility is almost low. No, but he still wanted to give it a try.

Lord Jing'an slowly put down the binoculars in his hand.

"Go and call Ye Mao."

Li Xin's personal guards were very efficient, and after a while, the little father-in-law Ye Mao came behind Li Xin, lowered his head and clasped his fists: "The general orders."

"The Pingnan Army will arrive at Mianzhu City in an hour or two at most. If you just defend the city, how sure are you?"

Ye Mao bowed his head and cupped his fists, his tone full of confidence.

"Back to the general, if you just defend the city, the general will be able to defend until the food in the city runs out."

"From now on, the defense of Mianzhu City will be entrusted to you."

Li Xin said in a deep voice: "I only have one request. Without my order, no matter what the situation is, don't go out of the city to pursue it."

"Except for this one, everything else is at your disposal."

The little father-in-law glanced at Li Xin excitedly, and then said loudly: "The last general will obey orders."

Just when he was about to go down to make arrangements, Li Xin patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Ye Mao, I will give you all the credit I can give you in the southwest this time. You have to take good care of it."

Ye Mao's voice also lowered, and he said: "Master uncle caress, my nephew understands."

Taking care of Ye Mao was Li Xin's promise to Ye Cheng and Ye Ming, but in fact, there is no need to take care of Ye Mao to this extent, and there is no need to give him all the credit that can be given to Ye Mao.

Li Xin did this to benefit the Ye family.

It gave the Ye family a benefit, and when Ye Ming and General Ye entered Jincheng, he would be embarrassed to show Li Xin's face. Even if Ye Ming entered Jincheng, most of the things in Jincheng would still be arranged by Li Xin.

This is a transaction under the surface, and it is also a transaction that ordinary people cannot see. However, people like Li Xin and Ye Ming can see the hidden meaning behind it as long as they have a clue.

Ye Mao bowed and went down.

Li Xin continued to stand on the tower, squinting his eyes at the Pingnan Army who was getting closer.

At some point, Zhao Jia stood behind Li Xin.

The military adviser of the Jing'an Hou Mansion also held a binoculars in his hand. After seeing the vanguard of the Pingnan Army, Zhao Jia frowned worriedly.

"Master Hou, they don't seem to be here for a show."

"Then let them take a bite of Mianzhu City."
