Bai Hu's eyes were bright and he continued: "But Liu Laozhi is different. He was greedy for power and mistakenly believed in Huan Xuan. The whole army surrendered first. Now Huan Xuan has taken away his military power and asked him to be the internal history of Kuaiji. This situation If he rebels again, he will be known as a traitor, and the world can attack him together. Although we all know that he will definitely try to rebel, but in fact, no one will follow him. If he was smarter, he would give up earlier. If the army defectes to Nanyan, there is still a way to survive, but if you want to rebel, you will only die. After Liu Laozhi, who can temporarily control the Beifu army for Huan Xuan and stabilize the morale of the army? Besides Liu Yu, is there a second candidate? ?!”
Suzaku shook his head: "If you had said this to anyone else, there would be no problem, but this is Huan Xuan. He and Liu Yu have known each other for twenty years and know each other well. He knows Liu Yu's abilities best, and he also knows If his influence cannot be used for him, he will definitely get rid of Liu Yu."
Qinglong smiled slightly: "Then how do you know that Liu Yu will not be used by Huan Xuan?"
Suzaku opened his eyes wide and stared closely at the smiling Qinglong, but he couldn't say a word.
Jingkou, Garlic Mountain, the top of the mountain.
Hundreds of fully armed sergeants were tightly surrounding the top of the mountain, while two powerful generals, Wu Fuzhi and Huangfu Fu, were holding big axes and halberds, and their eyes were like lightning, looking closely at the top of the mountain. Of the two people standing, one was fully armored and high-spirited, but he was not Huan Xuan, while the other was wearing a bamboo hat, a short farmer's uniform, and was unarmed, and he was clearly Liu Yu.
Huan Xuan was obviously very interested. From this position, he had a panoramic view of the entire Jingkou and a large river to the north. He looked at the eastern slope of Garlic Mountain, the forest land that had almost been flattened, with bare tree stumps everywhere, and smiled. : "Taking advantage of the heights to attack is overwhelming. The art of war is true. I have never understood how you defeated Sun En here. Only by coming here to see it in person can you know what is going on."
Liu Yu said calmly: "Huan Xuan, you came to me here at this time, you probably didn't discuss the tactics with me."
Huan Xuan smiled and waved his hand: "Of course, in fact, when I entered Jiankang and killed Sima Yuanxian and his followers, what I wanted to do most was to come to Jingkou to see you. If you had the chance to kill me back then, But you missed that opportunity and finally watched me achieve dominance. If you were to go back to those days, would you regret it and cooperate with me instead?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "If I had known about today, I should have killed you then to avoid bringing disaster to the world!"
The expressions of all the Jingzhou generals at the foot of the mountain changed. Wu Fuzhi picked up his axe, and said sternly: "You are so arrogant, my lord, please let us kill this madman!"
"Yeah, kill him, kill him!"
Huan Xuan smiled slightly and waved his hand: "This is the Liu Yu I know. Please be patient. I'm here today just to catch up with old friends and have no other meaning. You all should leave."
Huangfu Fu's expression changed: "My lord, Liu Yu is very brave. If you are alone with him, if he has evil intentions, I'm afraid your subordinates won't be able to rescue him in time."
Huan Xuan smiled and said: "Liu Yu is a filial man. I think he will not fail to consider the life and death of his mother, brother and daughter, as well as those brothers in the Beifu Army."
Liu Yu curled his lips: "Now I have no reason to kill you, so I won't do it. Huan Xuan, if you want to have a heart-to-heart talk with me, I'd be happy to accompany you. After all, it's been many years since we parted ways at the Maotai, right? .”
Huan Xuan nodded and waved his hand. Wu Fuzhi and Huangfu Fu looked at each other, sighed and retreated. All the sergeants retreated a hundred steps away, leaving only the two of them at the top of the mountain.
Huan Xuan looked at Liu Yu, put away his smile, and said calmly: "I originally thought that you would lead your troops to fight against me, so that you could kill and compete, but I didn't expect..."
Liu Yu shook his head: "If you hadn't bribed Liu Laozhi, I'm afraid you wouldn't have dared to really fight against me on the battlefield."
Huan Xuan laughed: "I told you a long time ago that a general's victory is not limited to the battlefield? Liu Yu, you are too naive, or too stupid, thinking that you can conquer the world with your fighting skills, but it turns out Well, twenty years later, you have become a Jingkou farmer again, but I have the power in the world, and can even decide your life or death. To this day, you still don’t admit that you were unwilling to cooperate with me. , is it a huge mistake?”
Liu Yu curled up his lips: "I am loyal to my country and am loyal to my country. I refuse to cooperate with you, a big thief of the country. What's wrong with me? If I choose again 10,000 times, I will still do the same thing!"
Huan Xuan smiled and waved his hand: "Why do you call me a national thief? Is it true that I inherit my father's business and sit in Jingxiang, so I am a national thief? If we want to say national thief, Wang Guobao, Sima Yuanxian and the others are the ones. Your Northern Expedition It was not me who caused it. I did not instigate the rebellion of Tianshi Dao. Even this civil war was not initiated by me. Why do you call us a traitor to our country? Liu Yu, you claim to be loyal and righteous, but on the contrary, you took the stand this time. The real national traitors!"
Liu Yu said disdainfully: "Whatever you say, in my opinion, there is no difference between you and Sima Yuanxian, except that he used to harm Sanwu, and you abused Jingxiang! You are all just doing it for yourself His power and ambition have caused war and chaos to the people of the world!"
Huan Xuan laughed: "Liu Yu, after all these years, you are still so naive, or pedantic. You said that for the sake of power and ambition, I caused the people of the world to suffer the disasters of war, what about you? What are you doing for your ideal of the Northern Expedition? , so that you can leave your name in history in the future, how many people have their families broken up, their wives and children scattered? We are all soldiers, killing people like hemp and blood, and no one is nobler than the other. The country you are talking about is in Where? Is he the loser lying on the bed who can't even speak? "
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "The Northern Expedition is a great cause, and it is the common ideal and life pursuit of all the sons and daughters of the Han family. And your ambition is only yours. How can these two things be equated? Yes, the current emperor is indeed He is a useless person who cannot speak and knows neither warmth nor warmth, but he is still the co-leader of the world. Everyone in the Jin Dynasty knows that he is the emperor, not you Huan Xuan. If there is no co-leader, then anyone can raise an army to seize the throne. , If you can do it today, then others can do it tomorrow, and the war will never end. You have read more books than me, why don’t you understand this?"
Huan Xuan blinked meaningfully: "Then, what if I am not the emperor, but only the prime minister. Will you still oppose me like this?"
