Unparalleled Concubine

"Master Hou, Zhao Jia's wife and children are already living in Jing'an Hou Mansion, Zhao Jia has no reason to betray Lord Hou."

Li Xin shook his head and said: "Brother You'an's words are wrong, Mrs. sister-in-law and two nephews live in my Marquis Mansion just to let Brother You'an have no worries. , then underestimate Li Xin."

Zhao Jia smiled wryly: "I have never thought of it this way before. I used to be just a retainer in Chen Guogong's mansion. How can I use the word proton? It is rare that Lord Hou appreciates it. He also promised Zhao Jia a future. , never betray Lord Hou."

Li Xin smiled.

"In that case, I believe in Brother Youan."

Conversations between smart people are sometimes devious, but sometimes straight to the point, but the effect is better. Now that Li Xin and Zhao Jia are open and honest, they trust each other a little more.

This is not childish behavior.

The reason why there is this level of trust is because Li Xin has been in contact with Zhao Jia for a long time, and the conversation just now was based on the mutual understanding during this period.

Li Xin took a deep breath, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Brother You'an has always been curious about what I want to do in the southwest."

"There are still more than [-] households of Southern Shu adherents in southern Xinjiang. These people are still loyal to the royal family of the old Southern Shu. Among them, they can draw [-] combat power, and they don't need food and grass to support them."

"I have put in a lot of hard work before, just to control these 5 people, but now Brother Youan also knows that although these 5 people are not absolutely in my hands, I still need to use the Mu family to remotely control them, but at least they are usable. gone."

Li Xin took a deep look at Zhao Jia and said slowly.

"After those of us crossed the Yinping Ancient Road, Brother Ye's people should have arrived at the Jiange. At that time, the main force of the Southwest will be involved in the Jiange. At that time, as long as we cross the Jiangyou Pass, and then let those Nanshu survivors attack Mianzhu back and forth with us, Then we can form a siege to Jincheng."

Lord Jing'an's eyes lit up.

"At that time, we have a good chance to occupy Jincheng!"

Having said that, even Li Xin's voice trembled slightly.

It was a big conspiracy, and he hadn't told anyone about it before.

After taking down Jincheng, not only can Li Xin avenge his personal revenge and completely smash the Pingnanhou Mansion, but he can also make great contributions to the sky. More importantly, his rebel army can also be involved in this operation. Grow up quickly.

Zhao Jia followed Li Xin slowly on horseback. This military strategist who liked to wear white looked at Li Xin for a long time, and finally let out a long breath.

"Your Majesty... think far and wide."

"I can't make it."

"It's not that I'm far-sighted."

Li Xin shook his head slowly, and said: "The current situation, of course, is due to the reason I started to arrange it a few years ago, but a few years ago, I couldn't have imagined that this situation is now, I can only say that it was a coincidence, What was laid out at the beginning is now in use.”

At the very beginning, Li Xin contacted the Mu family just to cause Li Shen some chaos in the southwest, or to get general news from the southwest through the Mu family, but today, two years later, the Mu family has become the most powerful force in the southwest. one.

Along the way, Zhao Jia was silent for a long time, and when the sun was about to set and Li Xin's troops began to set up camp, the young military advisor walked with Li Xin in the barracks, and said with a low eyebrow, "Master, if those survivors of Nanshu If you don’t want to join hands with the Marquis of Pingnan, then the Marquis of Pingnan will inevitably send out some soldiers to guard them, and even strike first, this point must be taken into consideration by the Marquis.”

"I thought about it."

Li Xin said in a low voice: "Li Shen sent 1 people at most to look after the Hanzhou government. The stalls in the southwest are too big, and no more people are enough. These 1 people won't play a key role. We should do it." What can still be done.”

As Li Xin was talking, he walked into his handsome tent shortly, and found a map of the Southwest from his surname Li, then pointed to the position of the ridge, and said in a deep voice: "Brother You'an, you Look, our department needs to enter the mountains from here, then climb over Motian Ridge and many other natural barriers, and finally go to Yinping to reach Jiangyou Pass."

"There are many difficulties and obstacles along the way, and many people are destined to die. Brother You'an is weak, so you must pay attention when the time comes, and don't get lost."

Zhao Jia smiled awkwardly.

"A few days ago, I stood on the boxing pole with Lord Hou in Jingzhou Mansion. I feel that my body has improved a lot."

Li Xin shook his head.

"Brother You'an, you are too old to practice boxing..."

Lord Jing'an was about to continue, when a messenger ran in, half kneeled on the ground, bowed his head and said, "General Li, Captain Ye is back."

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Captain Ye was Ye Mao, who served as Captain Zhechong under him, then waved his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Let him come over."

"Yes."

After a while, Ye Mao in armor walked in with a bloody smell, and saluted Li Xin respectfully.

"The last general has met General Li."

When he was working in the army, Ye Mao refused to be called Uncle Li Xin, and used to call him a public official.

Li Xin looked him up and down, his expression calm: "Why, did you kill a lot of people?"

"General Li is wise. There were at least sixty or seventy people who followed us. The general led people to clean up along the way and killed more than 30 people, but they ran away with twenty or thirty people."

At this time, Ye Mao answered very neatly, with the sharp taste of a general's son.

This surprised Li Xin a little.

Although this cheap nephew of mine can't get into the court, he seems to be very suitable to be a strong brother?

Chapter 497

The Ye family has a tradition of producing fierce generals. Ye Cheng, the old man Ye is a serious general. Back then when Ye Cheng had hundreds of thousands of people under his command, the Great Jin God of War still took the lead.

When Ye Cheng returned to the capital from northern Xinjiang more than 30 years ago, he had more than ten arrow wounds on his body, and there were also dozens of other wounds, large and small. At the beginning, everyone thought that the Great Jin God of War would not live to be 60 years old. It would take his life away, but the tyrannical old man Ye lived to be 74 years old and is still alive and kicking.

On the contrary, Li Zhijie, who was in the central army and had never been in battle in person, died before Ye Cheng.

As the eldest son of Ye Cheng, Ye Ming did not inherit the letter from his father, Brother Meng. This General Ye can only be regarded as moderate in terms of personal force. He is not known for his bravery, but for his strategy.

But seeing Ye Mao's aggressive appearance now, Li Xinxin felt a little skeptical.

Could it be that this thing is passed down from generation to generation, and old man Ye passed on his elder brother's attributes to Ye Mao?

Li Xin reached out and patted Ye Mao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Good job, I will give you some credit later."

Seeing that the atmosphere was not so dignified, Ye Mao immediately put down the routine in the army, and smiled wryly at Li Xin: "Father and grandfather always think that I will not grow up, and I don't want any credit. Uncle, can you help me?" Just say a few nice words for me in front of them and that's it."

Li Xin glanced at him with a smile.

"What can I say for you?"

"Let's just say I'm an adult."

I was a little bit unconvinced, little grandpa, so I peeled off the blood-stained armor casually, and said carelessly: "A few months ago, I took a Zhechong Mansion alone to stop those Northern Zhou clans, it's not the same thing. According to evidence, my father always thinks that I haven't grown up yet, I'm already the father of two children, why haven't I grown up?"

Ye Mao was older than Li Xin. He was young and came from a rich family, so he got married early. Now Ye Mao's eldest son can go to the streets to make soy sauce.

However, this guy is really not suitable for the imperial court, so no matter whether it is the old man Ye or Ye Ming, they are not at ease with him and let Li Xin take him all the time.

Lord Jing'an looked at Ye Mao with a smile, and asked tentatively, "Ye Mao, how many of these 30 people did you kill?"
