Liu Yu instinctively wanted to argue again, but then he thought about it. As the commander of the entire army, Xie Xuan was willing to explain patiently to the most ordinary soldier like himself. If it weren't for his special relationship with him, , it would probably be unimaginable for anyone else, even Liu Laozhi.
And although Xie Xuan didn't say it clearly, his meaning was very clear. It was not the Xie family's intention to let Tianshi Dao join this decisive battle, but the pressure from other families, even the king of Kuaiji, Sima Daozi, and Sun. Tai had already established a relationship with Sima Daozi and other high-ranking families like Wang Guobao who had been interested in taking over the position of the Xie family, and became their spokesperson in the army. In this war, the achievements of the Breaker Stone were predicted again, so Neither emotion nor reason can refuse them.
Since Qin's southern invasion, Xie Xuan, as the commander-in-chief, first voluntarily gave up a large area of land in Huaibei, and then wanted to use a marriage plan to allow Huan Yi to station in Shouchun to consume the Qin army. Both plans have not been realized. The current battlefield situation is not good for Jin. It is very unfavorable for the army. Although he talks a lot, it seems that hundreds of thousands of Qin troops can be wiped out in a chat and laugh. However, the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, and the situation on the battlefield may change at any time. Just like during the Battle of Shouchun, he also They are full of confidence, but when it comes to fighting, a small deviation may reverse the outcome. If the attack fails this time, the Xie family will probably follow the Jin Dynasty's national power and never recover. If you can rely on Dajiang to maintain peace for a while, you will definitely be replaced by other families.
It is common sense in the art of war for a general to worry about defeat before thinking about victory. However, Xie An, Xie Xianggong, who holds a high position and has been in power for decades in the empire, is even less likely to put all his hopes on this battle and balance all parties. His interests are something he needs to consider. At this time, it must be him who allowed the ambitious Tianshi Dao to join the battle. Xie Xuan had to obey after careful consideration and could never change this decision.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu took a deep breath and said: "Xuanshuai, I reserve my opinion, but I will obey your order. This time the Tiger troops attack, will the Tianshi Taoists also accompany them?"
Xie Xuan nodded: "Sun En and more than two thousand disciples of Tianshi Dao have arrived in the army an hour ago. Just when you saw Murong Lan, they also entered the camp at the same time. This time they will serve as peacekeepers." The same sharp knives as the Tiger Force are used on the most critical battlefields. Xiaoyu, do you understand what I mean?"
Liu Yu's eyes lit up: "Xuanshuai, are you going to use this method to prevent the people of Tianshi Dao from playing tricks? Putting them on the front line with the tiger troops at the same time will prevent them from being able to do anything like last time. The possibility of causing harm behind the scenes can either be won together or eliminated together, right?"
Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "Jinnu, you are making great progress, and you are starting to think about things other than the battlefield. Yes, the Beifu Army was formed by my Xie family, and it will become an army to safeguard the status of our Xie family in the future, Tiger The troops are the top elite of the Beifu Army, and they have gathered the best warriors of the Jin Dynasty. Whether it is for the benefit of our family or the country, we cannot lose it easily. If the Tiger Troops are lost, it will be difficult for the Beifu Army to maintain its strength. "
"But if this battle is really unfavorable, our bottom line is that we cannot let other families, especially people like Wang Guobao, Sima Daozi, and even Sun Tai, take the opportunity to seize power. It's not my Xie family who is greedy for power, but a national crisis. Bear in mind, we must not let power fall to these villains, harming the country and the people. Even if the Jingzhou Huan family is allowed to take power, greedy and incompetent villains like Wang Guobao cannot be allowed to occupy high positions. In that case, even Jiangnan It’s impossible to save even half of it.”
Liu Yu nodded: "Wang Guobao does not have his own army. All he can rely on are these monsters from Tianshi Dao. If they are also defeated and lost in this battle, then Wang Guobao will not be able to take away your military power. Dajin There’s still room for redemption, right?”
Xie Xuan nodded: "Yes, it stands to reason that Wang Guobao would be reluctant to do this, but Sun Tai is an ambitious man. He wants to make contributions and lay the foundation for the further development and growth of Tianshi Dao in the Jin Dynasty, so He desperately wanted to go to war, and even took the initiative to ask Sima Daozi to join him. Originally, Sima Daozi thought that he was coming to the front line to perform rituals and pray for the soldiers. However, before setting off, he secretly met with Mr. Xianggong and said that the purpose of Tianshi Dao was to For meritorious service, please give them a chance."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Could it be that they are trying to use some means to say this deliberately?"
Xie Xuan shook his head: "In this situation, it is impossible to use any more methods. And they don't know our plan now. Sun Tai said, and Sun En also told me when he came to the camp, any order will be carried out." , if you can sacrifice your life for the country this time, the Celestial Master Dao will regard it as a victory and immortality. It is a supreme honor for every believer. They also all wore black and white clothes to fight. It can be said that if you prepare well, you will die. I can see it in their eyes."
Liu Yu thought of the brief contact with the Tianshi Sect and the terrifying light in the eyes of those fanatical religious believers. He sighed: "Such cults can really confuse people's hearts and make people fearless of life and death. A small favor can bring thousands of villagers and foolish women into the fold, willing to die for them. If the Jin Dynasty can survive this calamity, Marshal Xuan must report it to the Prime Minister and put more restrictions on it."
Xie Xuan nodded: "That happened after the war. They still have to use their advantages in this battle. The people in Tianshi Dao do not have heavy armor and long spears, but they are good at stabbing, quick and flexible, and can fight in skirmishes." In this attack on Luojian, you must work together. As the vanguard, the tiger troops must brave the enemy's arrows and stones to establish a position on the beach to cover the follow-up troops. Once a close encounter occurs, Let the people of Tianshi Dao make a full-scale attack, disperse their formations, directly capture the enemy's generals, and knock off their command. In a night battle, if the command fails, the entire army will be passive. This is our Opportunity to win, understand?”
Liu Yu said seriously: "I understand, but this matter should be given by Liu Yingyang as the general. If Sun En is still leading the team this time, Liu Yingyang should give him the order."
Xie Xuan shook his head, took out a white token from his arms, handed it to Liu Yu, and said sternly: "The prisoner has his own selfish motives. If he is asked to give the order, it is very likely that he will let the people from Tianshi Dao take the lead." , if more than two thousand people die, the corpses will block the path of our army. Ji Nu, I can only trust you now. This is the token Sun Tai secretly gave us. Sun En will only recognize this token and act. Will you? Disappoint me?"
