Che Linlin, Ma Xiaoxiao, and pedestrians all have bows and arrows on their waists.
It was not like Xu Yunyan had never seen the scenes of expeditions in ancient times, but this time he suddenly had such a feeling after seeing the soldiers sent by these local clans.
These local emperors are really living a comfortable life. They can only form an army behind closed doors.
When the army was resting in place after half a day, Xu Yunyan rode his group of war horses through the soldiers. He was very curious to see the noble soldiers gobbling up the dry food they brought with them.
Why does it look like you haven't eaten?
The Yunzhou Iron-Blooded Masters he brought out were waiting obediently for the food in the marching pot to be boiled and then share the food here. Comparing the two sides, it was clear at a glance which one was a strong army and which one was a rabble.
However, Xu Yunyan had only taken a few steps when he heard a few men talking there after finishing the dry food in their hands.
"This home is so worthless. We are farmers who rent the land from the Zhang family. They are threatening us with the land and asking us to replace the Zhang family in the expedition. What if we are injured in this battlefield? What will we do? There is still money at home. There are children to support and elderly people with limited mobility.”
One person said this, and the other person next to him sighed, "Who says it's not the case? We just came out and performed meritorious deeds. The fields we gained belonged to the Zhang family, not ours. We will have to suffer the consequences when we go back." Days, why bother?"
"Who made us have no land?"
This made Xu Yunyan's heart flash with a light, but Xu Yunyan looked happy but did not say it outright at the first time.
"Just wait, when the time is right, I will let you get wealth you didn't expect."
After repairing for a whole hour and solving all the problems with the five internal organs, the army began to march southward again.
However, not long after leaving this time, a scout came to Xu Yunyan in a panic and said, "The commander is not good. I found another man and horse coming towards us in the distance."
"What? There is another man driving towards us?"
Xu Yunyan was shocked when he heard the news. "How many people are there? Whose flag are they carrying?"
After Xu Yunyan said this, the scout hurriedly said, "The one we fought seems to be the flag of General Su, like Su Dingfang, General Su."
Hearing this, Xu Yunyan wished he could have kicked the scout last year.
"What's going on with you? General Su is our friendly army, how can you be so flustered? The whole army is preparing to join forces with General Su, but we must also be careful not to be attacked by the enemy. He used the name of General Su to deceive us."
Xu Yunyan almost made a mistake, which made Xu Yunyan feel a little confused. Fortunately, it was Su Lie and Su Dingfang who came from a distance, and nothing unexpected happened.
After Su Dingfang and Xu Yunyan met again, Xu Yunyan hurriedly saluted, "General Su didn't expect to see General Su here. It's really gratifying."
Su Lie and Su Dingfang were overjoyed when they saw Xu Yunyan, "I'm even more happy to see you here. I didn't expect you to be quite capable. A few thousand old soldiers in Yunzhou City defeated a hundred thousand Turks. It really flatters me." The army is mighty!"
Su Dingfang actually praised himself, which surprised Xu Yunyan. He laughed awkwardly twice and then continued to flatter him.
"This is all due to General Suda's support. Otherwise, I would still be a big-headed soldier, and I wouldn't be able to use my amazing talents."
This is too shameless to say.
Su Dingfang couldn't help but feel a little contempt when he looked at Xu Yunyan, but he still asked curiously, "Where is General Xu going if he is not stationed in Yunzhou?"
"So that General Su will know that he is going to the south to assist in the war on His Majesty's orders."
After Xu Yunyan said this, he asked Su Dingfang again, "Don't you know General Su?"
"Like you, I came out to recruit some soldiers to go to the south to cooperate with His Majesty in the battle."
After Su Dingfang finished speaking, the two of them walked south side by side without anyone saying anything.
It was a bit strange that the teams would join together. After doing this for more than half an hour, Xu Yunyan couldn't hold it in any longer, came to Su Dingfang's side, and fisted Su Dingfang.
"General Su."
Su Lie turned to look at Xu Yunyan, "What does General Xu have to do? But it doesn't matter."
Xu Yunyan sighed, looked at Su Dingfang and said seriously, "General Su, actually I don't want to go to the south."
Su Lie was a little curious at this moment, "Oh? Then I wonder what General Xu's plan is? Since Your Majesty has this order, why don't you go? Is there anything unresolved in the North?"
"It's not like this."
After Su Dingfang finished asking, Xu Yunyan said directly, "General Su, our Majesty has ignored the people of the North for his own selfish interests. How can I lead my troops to help with peace of mind?"
When it came to Su Dingfang, he was very curious and looked at Xu Yunyan in confusion. Xu Yunyan was not afraid of Su Dingfang's sudden outburst and made his words clear here.
"General Su, why does it make sense for our Majesty to not come to deal with the Turks for his own selfish interests? If we lose the support of the people, how can we last long even if we conquer the world! It's just a flash in the pan during the Sui Dynasty."
Xu Yunyan said it very clearly, and Su Dingfang also looked a little gloomy, "Xu boy, do you know what you are talking about? You also know what His Majesty is planning? Now is the time of the decisive battle, why do you shake the morale of the army so much? "
"General Su, don't blame me for shaking the morale of the army. Is it really useful for us to go here? We have less than 10,000 soldiers in total, and most of them are new soldiers. Can they fight for His Majesty wholeheartedly? What's more, in When the Turks were raging in the north, if I were His Majesty, even if I had to bear the responsibility of being caught and beheaded by the Tang army, I would return to the army to deal with the Turks first.
At that time, what the people wanted was that even if the Tang army came back with 100,000 or 200,000 soldiers, it would not matter. The people's hearts were with me. Even if I lost the battle, I would suddenly have a strong army. Didn't General Su think about this? ? "
Seeing Su Dingfang thinking here, Xu Yunyan continued, "The Turks invaded the border and invaded our Majesty's territory. Then why did the Tang army have the King of Qin lead his troops to the North to protect the safety of the North. This can be said to be a situation where there is too much help for the good and little help for the bad. General Su, do we really want to go to the south to help the tyrants? In the end, we will be infamy for the rest of our lives?"
Su Lie began to think about it here, "But Your Majesty has been kind to me, how could I abandon Your Majesty like this?"
Seeing that Su Dingfang was still hesitant here, Xu Yunyan directly dropped a bombshell: "What does it matter? Your Majesty and I still have a grudge against killing my father. Your Majesty killed my father. I don't think your Majesty is a wise king before him." Serving under his command?
But who would have thought that it would be like this? How could you ask me to abandon the hatred of killing my father and serve your Majesty wholeheartedly? ""
