Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 699 An Awesome Man

Gu Yanchao made another voice at this time: "The emperor wants a quick victory, and that must be agreed by the rebels. Judging from the current situation, the result he wants may not be able to be achieved."

Gu Yanxi immediately heard something else from the elder brother's words, and asked: "What does the elder brother mean? Could it be that the eldest brother has doubts about the fact that General Lu led the troops in person? Old General Lu is a warrior on the battlefield. This When he stood up, he should not be underestimated."

Gu Yanchao said: "I have never doubted the ability of General Lu to lead troops to fight, but in the smoke of the battlefield, what is important is morale, as the saying goes, one go at a time, and then decline and exhaust. This sentence has never been simple. It's that easy to say. On the battlefield, the morale of the soldiers is very important and changes rapidly; if the court had sent General Lu before the rebel army became popular, perhaps the court's army would not have lost so ugly now. Sending a veteran to play again is undoubtedly a remedy after the past, and it is very likely that it will be too late."

Gu Yanxi began to worry about the Lu Mansion: "If the old general Lu led his troops to put down the rebels, but in the end returned without success, or suffered repeated setbacks, wouldn't it affect the Lu Mansion in the capital? Since he was born in the army, he must be going to fight with General Lu on the battlefield, if something happens to Yingying's elder brothers on the battlefield, it will be bad news for the Lu family."

Gu Yanchao did not agree with Gu Yanxi's words at this time: "The battlefield is indeed dangerous, but as a general, you walk between the blades. If you are afraid of death, why do you join the army? What kind of general? I believe in the Lu family. Everyone in the family has already been mentally prepared, and will never put life and death on their minds. Jiaojiao, these thoughts of yours are purely the thoughts of some indecisive daughters. For Ding, it is undoubtedly an insult, because while you doubt their ability, you also doubt their determination to defend the country to the death."

Gu Yanxi quickly explained: "Brother, I didn't mean that. I just..."

"I understand that's not what you mean. I believe that if Yingying heard it, she would also understand." Gu Yanchao sighed and continued, "It's just that, in whatever position you are in, you must be able to bear the responsibility and responsibility that this position gives you. Obligation; since ancient times, for all the soldiers who are full of the spirit of defending their homes and defending the country, and the warriors who regard death as home, for them, the shroud of horse leather is the greatest glory, not the end."

Gu Yanxi could understand the righteousness of what her elder brother said, but she still couldn't help but feel pain in her heart, and couldn't help worrying about the situation of Lu's mansion.

She also knew the brothers of the Lu family. As for the old general Lu, he was also an upright, unrestrained hero. As long as he thought that such a loyal family would sacrifice his life for Emperor Wu of Liang, Gu Yanxi would not be worthy of them. .

Gu Yanzhao saw that Gu Yanxi bowed his head in pain and said nothing, rolled his eyes, and said to her, "Jiaojiao, what you said just now was all about worrying about the Lu family. Are you so confident in the rebels? Do you think Mr. Lu If the general goes out to fight, he will definitely be defeated?"

Gu Yanxi glanced at her elder brother, and knew that he wanted to talk to her, so she could relax: "Brother, didn't you just say that Old General Lu has little chance of winning this time, since the chance of winning is not great, then there is a good chance of winning." Maybe we're going to lose, aren't we?"

Gu Yanchao sighed, patted his thigh, and said to Gu Yanxi: "I just said that the chances of winning are not great, and I also assert that the emperor's idea of ​​a quick battle is impossible to succeed, but the rebels want to completely win Old General Lu. It also takes a little effort. In short, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, you have to look at your heart clearly and know what the answer you want most."

Speaking of the last sentence, Gu Yanchao gave Gu Yanxi a hard look, reminding her silently which side she should stand on.

Of course Gu Yanxi knew which side she wanted to stand on, but, judging from the sisterhood between her and Lu Yingying, she didn't like the drastic changes in her handkerchief family.

Just when Gu Yanxi was holding her breath for Lu Yingying, suddenly, something flashed in her mind and made her sit up straight immediately.

No, according to the memories of her previous life, Lu Yingying was the concubine of the Marquis of Pingnan, and after Feng Yichen proclaimed himself emperor, she valued Marquis Pingnan and Marquis Hou very much. Guarding the border gates, he couldn't show his face often in front of the imperial court, but Feng Yichen never forgot the rewards he received from the Marquis of Pingnan.

Based on what she knew about Feng Yichen, he was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to be nice to others casually, and there were only two ways to make him really care about being nice to him.

The first is that he has the merits of benefiting thousands of people, making him a rare talent; From the perspective of human identity, they definitely do not belong to the first type of "talent type". Since they are not the first type, the possibility of the second type is extremely high.

Could it be that Feng Yichen had already acquired Pingnanhou's Mansion, and the Mu family father and son had already belonged to Feng Yichen?
Gu Yanxi clutched his beating heart, his eyes almost straightened, while trembling with excitement at his discovery, at the same time amazed at Feng Yichen's game of chess.Once again, she realized how terrifying and aggressive this man was. No wonder in his previous life, he would go straight to the capital so easily. It turned out that his odds of winning and his chances of winning were really not that simple.In his hands, he has already controlled almost half of Daliang's army. Under such a disparity between the enemy and ourselves, how could he not have the last laugh?

Seeing the change in Gu Yanxi's face, Gu Yanchao thought it was his conversation that frightened her, so he quickly stood up from the round stool and approached Gu Yanxi, reached out to hold her thin shoulders, and felt her trembling: "Jiaojiao , Did the elder brother’s words frighten you? It’s also because I didn’t think carefully enough to talk about the battlefield to one of your daughter’s family, okay, okay, let’s not be afraid, elder brother is by your side to accompany you.”

Seeing that Gu Yanchao misunderstood him, Gu Yanxi quickly grabbed his hand, looked at him eagerly, and asked, "Brother, I ask you a question, you must answer me seriously and definitely."

Gu Yan said, "Okay, tell me."

Gu Yanxi swallowed nervously, and after taking a few deep breaths, he asked, "Will the Pingnan Hou Mansion be with you when Old General Lu goes out this time?"
