It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 833

Li Xingzai looked at Mu Baishi with satisfaction, and said, "If we can win this battle, General Mu should take credit."

Mu Baishi clasped his fists in both hands: "Your Majesty's award is all due to your proper command. If your Majesty hadn't taken the lead, how could your subordinates have fought bravely to kill the enemy."

"The day before yesterday was not in harmony, and I also asked General Mu not to take it to heart. Xiao Wang hereby apologizes to General Mu for the offense."

"Ah, ah, it's really a villain. It's the villain who apologizes to the prince."

The two of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

The two stood side by side in front of the wooden building window, watching Liupin Lake after the war. Today's battle is not easy. But it was precisely because the victory was not easy that I felt honored at this moment.

You can still smell the blood, the burnt smell of burning grain. Mu Baishi let out a sigh of relief, but felt a little sympathy with Li Xingzai.

He is not very old, and he fantasizes about fighting on the battlefield and establishing a lifetime of merit. The little grudge between Li Xingzai and Li Xingzai would not be seen by him. As for Li Xingzai's character, he actually admired it very much.

If you put yourself in Li Xingzai's position, can you sacrifice your life and risk your life like him?

Everyone is young, and Li Xingzai is admirable if he can do what he can't.

"My lord, in the future, there is a place that will be useful to you, what will your lord command?"

This sentence means allegiance, and Li Xingzai's performance today is enough to convince him.

Li Xingzai nodded, but shook his head again, and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity..."

Mu Baishi raised his head and asked in confusion, "What's the pity, my lord?"

Li Xingzai did not say a word, and passed by Mu Baishi, Mu Baishi turned around in confusion, but saw a short knife stabbed directly into his throat.

His body was silent to the end, and Li Xingzai silently drew out his knife and wiped away the blood on his body.

Mu Baishi's father, Mu Changchun, died at the hands of Li Xingzai, and Mu Baishi doesn't know about it for the time being. And no matter how much he admired Li Xingzai at the moment, the revenge of killing his father could neither be concealed nor erased.

Therefore, Li Xingzai long ago had the heart to kill Mu Baishi. Mu Baishi only thought that a bloody battle could establish a comrade-in-arms relationship with Li Xingzai, but Li Xingzai would never sympathize with him.

Killing Mu Baishi, saying that he was shot by a dark arrow and died on the battlefield, it is estimated that no one will hold him accountable.

It's not just that Mu Baishi is going to die. After all, none of the Mu family's cronies on Baiyu Island can escape.

A power purge, how could it be gentle, with no blood on his hands.

At this time, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. Li Xingzai had just wiped off the blood on the knife, but before he stood up, he heard the sound and raised his head suddenly.

Yu Wushuang at the door was stunned, the whole person was locked in place, unable to speak.

She didn't know what to think. After cleaning the battlefield, she found that Li Xingzai could not see the figure, so she went here.

Unexpectedly, he happened to see Li Xingzai murder. Why did Li Xingzai kill people, she couldn't understand at all. But Li Xingzai could kill Mu Baishi, why couldn't he kill himself?

The gentle young man was gone, and the eyes staring at him at the moment were a man of iron and blood. It's not that she didn't want to move, but she didn't dare to move under the stare of this gaze. It seemed like he would kill himself instantly if he tried to get out of his sight.

Li Xingzai stood up at this time and approached Yu Wushuang step by step. Yu Wushuang seemed to be clenching his heart, and his breathing seemed to stop. Li Xingzai got closer and closer to her, the expression on his face became softer and softer, and finally the two stood face to face, breathing each other.

Li Xingzai smiled, patted a piece of dry grass on her shoulder, and passed her.

At this moment, Yu Wushuang almost collapsed to the ground, only to realize that his back was wet with cold sweat.

She turned her head and saw that Li Xingzai was still handsome, but behind that smile, there seemed to be an abyss that couldn't be seen.

"My lord, I just got the news." Xu Wentian came over to report: "Li Xing led the army to kill here."

"I see." Li Xingzai nodded: "Order all the troops and horses and prepare for battle."

Mu Baishi can breathe a sigh of relief, enjoy the honor after the victory, and have a close relationship with Li Xingzai. But Li Xingzai definitely did not have this leisurely feeling, because he knew that victory was far from being achieved.

The real battle, at this moment, is just the curtain raised.

...

When the battle of Liuping Lake started last night, Li Xing had already received the battle report. A question that he couldn't understand even if he broke his head was: where did the soldiers and horses who raided Liuping Lake come from.

In the current chess game, Li Xingzai has absolutely no chance of winning. Unexpectedly, he actually attracted foreign aid and turned this dead chess game into a live chess game.

Li Xing summoned troops and horses overnight to prepare for the aid of Liuping Lake. The distance between the two places is not far.

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible." Hong Jue stopped Li Xing, who was furious, and said, "Now our army is supporting Liuping Lake, and the troops of Luofeng City will definitely pursue it. At that time, Jiangnan soldiers will be attacked by the enemy, but it is a big taboo in the military. See, we should attack the city quickly, leave Liuping Lake alone, and attack Luofeng City by force. As long as we can defeat Luofeng City, the people who attacked Liuping Lake are just a lone ghost, nothing to worry about.”

Li Xing suppressed his anger and said, "Can we beat Fengcheng?"

"The soldiers are attentive, no matter the cost, they may not be defeated." Hong Liao affirmed.

"I understand what the strategist means." Li Xing said: "But once we can't defeat Fengcheng, we will fall into the Jedi. The daily food and grass for 100,000 horses is an astronomical amount. People can consume us to death by eating horses. Now we can only Attacking Liuping Lake will allow our army to advance and retreat, so that we can remain invincible."

Hong Liao was speechless, but also suddenly realized. On the battlefield, nothing is fixed right or wrong. Everything is right or wrong by consequentialism.

The current situation is that no matter how the Jiangnan Army chooses, it needs to take risks. After all, they're not as secure as they were at the beginning.

Under the command of Li Xing, the army of 100,000 people began to be mobilized, divided into the forward, the main line, and the back team, to cull Liuping Lake.

In Luofeng City, Chu Yunsheng's sword in his hand was unsheathed at this moment, the city gate opened, and all 30,000 horses rushed out of the city and rushed towards Li Xing.

This was the plan he and Li Xingzai made at the very beginning. Liuping Lake was the only chance. Li Xingzai succeeded in borrowing troops and had to attack the other side's forage-heavy land.

The inside should cooperate with the outside, and if Li Xing was attacked by the enemy, Li Xingzai had a chance.

Li Xing really fell into a situation of being attacked by the enemy on both sides. In the dense forest, on the river beach, and between the canyons, he had a confrontation with Li Xingzai.

In this case, Li Xing finally showed his extraordinary ability:

run away.
