The group's favorite little Fubao has become the most arrogant kid in the whole imperial city

Chapter 146 General Liu is Here

Xihe looked at the familiar face outside the door and asked in surprise: "General Liu?"

Unexpectedly, he got hit on the head and heard a familiar nonchalant voice in his ears, "Liu, you big-headed ghost, my last name is Su!"

Xihe smiled and said, "Uncle Weird, how are you?"

A familiar feeling came over them, and both of them couldn't help but have tears in their eyes. Liu Yuan stepped forward to smooth down the girl's frizzy hair, and scolded her with a smile: "Little brat, are you stupid? How dare you take on all the responsibilities by yourself?"

When they met the falcon, Liu Yuan and Xu Qingcheng had just walked a few dozen miles out of the imperial city. After receiving the letter from the little boy, he thought about it and sent Xu Qingcheng back to the imperial city, and he went to the border alone according to the predetermined route.

He heard a lot of news along the way.

Bei Li's backstabbing, Bei Mo's civil unrest, Zhao Jinyuan's coma, Zhao Chengning's decadent state, such a huge border is supported by the weak body of this little guy.

"I'm fine. I can still... hold on." Having said that, these seven days were really hard. The Beimo thieves were determined to take over the border while Zhao Jinyuan was unconscious. Fortunately, Xihe transferred Su Ming from Dingbei City in advance. "How is the Imperial City?"

The two of them talked as they walked inside.

"Qingcheng has already returned. His Majesty has also learned the news and has transferred some generals back to the Imperial City. The defenses of other places have been strengthened. There is no big problem." Liu Yuan suddenly paused, hesitated for a moment and continued: "The Beili Army initially passed through Nanli as you said. They boarded the ship from Jiangnan and planned to take the water route to the Imperial City, but..."

"what happened?"

"The Beili Army has been floating on the sea and has not come ashore. The reserve army has even stopped in Jiangnan and has not moved. It does not look like they are going to attack the city."

Liu Yuan was not very clear about the matter, but Xihe knew it very well. "He knew that I sent the message back in advance. The imperial city has already made arrangements. He can't catch us by surprise. It's better to pretend that everything is fine and create a paper-thin peace."

Liu Yuan frowned and asked, "Little one, you and the big one..."

"broken."

Liu Yuan stopped talking and sighed after a long time.

This day has been coming, sooner or later.

"Uncle Weird, family and country come first, and children's love comes second. I know, you don't have to worry." Xihe comforted.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuan's expression did not relax much, but became even more worried. He felt vaguely that the kid was a little different, but he couldn't tell where. If Emperor Jingyuan was here, Liu Yuan might find that the indescribable feeling in Xihe was exactly the same as that of Emperor Jingyuan.

With a quick glance, I suddenly saw a wedding dress next to the table.

"Who wants to get married?" Liu Yuan asked after taking a look.

Xihe looked in the direction Liu Yuan pointed, and then her eyes became more lonely. She took the unfinished wedding dress and gently stroked the pattern on it. "No one wants to get married. This is the wedding dress they prepared for me in the future."

Liu Yuan looked at the unfinished pattern and asked, "Why is this piece incomplete?"

"This piece was originally embroidered by my second brother, but he was in a hurry to go to the battlefield. He originally said that he would embroider it for me after he came back, but..."

Xihe didn't say anything more, and Liu Yuan immediately shut up. The second prince, Zhao Jinyuan, was unconscious, and it was unknown whether this wedding dress would ever be completed.

"Tell me what you are going to do next?" Liu Yuan changed the subject and took out the defense map and calculated: "Beimo originally had 30,000 soldiers, but after several consecutive times, there are less than 20,000 soldiers. Beili has only 10,000 cavalry, and the rest will not be able to arrive for a while. If we want to capture and kill them, now is the best time."

Xihe tapped gently in the Beimo area and suddenly asked, "How many troops are stationed in Beimo's base camp?"

"About a little over 20,000." Liu Yuan thought about it and his face changed slightly, "Little bastard, you want to touch Beimo?"

Xihe's expression did not change. "Saint Ancestor, ancestors, and father all want to include this piece of grassland into Tianshuo's territory. Beimo has been living here for too many years. It's time to change its owner."

Liu Yuan disagreed. "Boy, although Beimo has only 50,000 troops, they are all cavalry and are not easy to attack. The troops at the border, including those from the surrounding counties, are only 150,000 at most. We can capture it by force, but the losses will be heavy. It is not worth it. I don't agree with this plan."

"Uncle Weird, don't get excited." Xihe poured a cup of tea and handed it to Liu Yuan, "Calm down first. When did I say I wanted to attack violently?"

Then he said, "The current Wolf Lord of Beimo is already old. He has many children, but the only male who has grown up in these years is the Prince of Beimo who is currently in the Beili military camp. If the only son is killed by Beili, will the Wolf Lord of Beimo fight Beili to the death?"

"While the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits." Liu Yuan glanced at Xihe with an incomprehensible expression, "Are you here to avenge the two princes?"

"Yes!" Xihe would not harm the innocent, but would avenge her enemies. "Bei Mo and Bei Li teamed up to kill my brother, and I must avenge them. I will destroy whatever they care about the most! They will all pay the price they deserve!"

Beimo occupies the grasslands, and their unique geographical location has ensured their prosperity for a hundred years. I will take over the territory they are so proud of and make them submit to Tianshuo!
As for Xiao Mingxuan.

What he cares about most is his power. If he is defeated this time and makes enemies with Beimo, his position in Beili will be unstable.

Liu Yuan was silent for a while, then said seriously, "We can only send out one-third of the border guards at most. If we want to take over Beimo, except for the soldiers in Dingbei City, the rest of the surrounding counties are guards, and their combat effectiveness is not strong. If we want to strengthen the troops, we have to transfer them from the Imperial City. But now Beili's 100,000 troops are eyeing the Imperial City covetously, and the soldiers in the Imperial City must not be transferred out at this time."

Once the imperial city is lost, it will be useless even if they take over the Northern Desert.

"I know." Xihe slowly tapped the Beili territory on the map. "The army was secretly dispatched. Except for a few of us, no one knows that Beili's imperial city is now just an empty shell. If Beili's imperial city is attacked at this moment, will the Emperor of Beili anxiously ask Prince Jing to take the army back?"

"Yes!" Liu Yuan gave the answer immediately. "Emperor Beili is a softie. He loves face and is afraid of death. Let alone attacking, the slightest disturbance can scare him to death. But... little bastard, the eldest bastard holds great power now, and he may not necessarily listen to Emperor Beili."

Liu Yuan was still used to calling Xiao Mingxuan "big brat", as if they were still in Jiangnan.

"Then force him to send the army back." Nineteen sent back the news. It was true that most of the Beili royal family was controlled by Xiao Mingxuan, but they were not completely helpless. "The Beili Crown Prince was imprisoned in the dungeon of Prince Jing's Mansion. I have already taken him out. As long as he appears in the court, with the support of the court officials and the Beili Emperor, he may be able to compete with Xiao Mingxuan."

"In this case, if the court puts pressure on us, unless the eldest son kills all those who oppose him, there will be no other way except to turn back the army in the short term."

Xihe nodded, "That's what I mean. When the army returns, we can use Prince Beimo as a chess piece to keep the two sides in check."

"The King of Beimo will definitely send troops to rescue his son." Liu Yuan looked at the checkpoints set up on all sides of Beimo and said, "While they are fighting to the death, we can take a detour and capture Beimo. By the time the King of Beimo comes to his senses, his house will have been robbed."

"That's right!" Xihe sat on the armchair and slowly took a sip of tea.

"But..." Liu Yuan paused, "Little bastard, how can you be sure that the big bastard will not assassinate opponents in the court for his own purposes?"
