Chen Kefu laughed a few times, "If Shuai Xue could say this a few days earlier, I would naturally be very happy. If I could meet a famous general like Shuai Xue, I would naturally be willing to fight against the top and bottom in one battle. But now, it is too late." "Why?"

Xue Dingguo, who was on the side, had already shouted loudly, "Brother, just yesterday, the court's Nayan Pei had personally rushed to Liaodong to read His Majesty's edict to General Chen. His Majesty's edict not only eliminated the previous crimes of the court against General Chen and the soldiers and people of Liaodong, but also the court has also granted General Chen the title of Situ, Secretary of the Secretariat, Minister of the Secretariat, General Secretary of the State Council, General Secretary of the North Mo Road, and General Secretary of the Liaodong Road, General Secretary of the State Council, General Secretary of the State Council, General Secretary of the East Liao Road, General Secretary of the State Council, General Secretary of the State Council, General Secretary of the Liaodong, Western Liao, and Weishi County troops." "Impossible!" Xue Shixiong said coldly after hearing this, "Chen

Pojun, don't think that everyone in the world is a fool. Although Dingguo is brave, he is not smart. I don't know how you used to deceive Dingguo, but you can't deceive me. Even if you go to Potian today, I will not believe your lies." Xue Wanche on the other side also said anxiously, "Master, the uncle said everything is true. Your Majesty not only granted the official positions of Marshal Chen, but also issued an order to marry Marshal Chen, and Princess Chen, and now Princess Izumo has arrived in Liaodong with Pei Na's words. We have all seen it, not only that, []

Your Majesty has also been appointed as the Prince of Northern Chen....

"Impossible, Impossible, this is impossible!" Xue Shixiong was a little stunned. If his cousin Xue Dingguo, who had always been lawless, could not lie, then his youngest son Xue Wanche could not tell such a shocking lie to him. What's happening now surprised him, his mind was confused and difficult to accept for a while. As a senior official of the court, he commanded tens of thousands of troops and had been in the frontier for a long time. Naturally, he understood the essence of some things better than his sons. No matter which emperor it was, he would not tolerate a rebellious minister like Chen Kefu, not to mention that this was not only not a recruitment, but also an award, Princess Shang, and a different title.

If all this is true, then there will be a big problem afterwards. After sitting on the horse, Xue Shixiong immediately thought of the matter in Hedong. Hedong is far away from Linyu Mountain and the news of the siege of Yanmen has not yet reached the Hebei army. So after thinking about it, Xue Shixiong felt that the situation in Yanmen must have become worse, and Linyu had sent two critical emergency reports to the emperor in Linyu.

On one hand, there was the siege of the Turks in Yanmen, and on the other hand, the Liaodong rebels entered the Central Plains and the siege of the barriers. Perhaps the emperor would suddenly treat Chen Kefu like this after weighing the pros and cons. All of this must be just a delaying plan. Soon, Xue Shixiong had already calculated the things before and after. After straightening out the rules, Xue Shixiong finally understood the situation in front of him.

As the commander of the first army, he certainly understood the emperor's meaning. The emperor wanted Hebei not to have any more accidents, so that the court could only resolve the Turks first and then turn to the east. If he understood these, he naturally knew how to make choices and advance. In the end, he decided that everything would be based on the emperor's wishes. He led his army to retreat to Linyu Pass, waiting for the imperial army to resolve the Turks first. Although the forces of the Hebei Army and the Liaodong Army were almost the same as those of the Liaodong Army, after the war, the Hebei Army would inevitably lose troops. Even if he retreated to Linyu, he would not be able to replenish his troops for a while. However, the Liaodong rebels still had at least 200,000 troops. How could the rebels attack Linyu again, he would be powerless. If he lost the Linyu Pass and allowed the Liaodong rebels to enter Hebei, he would be a criminal in the court.

Most of what Xue Shixiong had planned was correct, but unfortunately these were just the situation at the siege of Yanmen. Now the siege of Yanmen is resolved, and the emperor is still unconscious. If he knew these latest situations, he would definitely reconsider the situation in his heart.

Although Xue Shixiong had already made a decision in his heart, he still said coldly, "Just just a few words, how can I believe this commander? What about Your Majesty's edict? What about Pei Nayan who sent the edict?" Chen Kefu waved backwards, and several more cavalry ran out of the Liaodong army formation. One of them was wearing a green official robe. At first sight, he could tell that he was only a small official of the sixth and seventh rank.

"Shi Shuai, this is Lord Huang Ying, the communist who followed Pei Nayan from Yanmen to announce the imperial edict. Lord Pei went on a day and night and suffered a little cold. I have already found a famous doctor to treat him and have been sent to Liaoyang City for rest. Although Lord Huang is not the official envoy of this trip, he is also the official of the imperial edict. Mr. Xue wants to read the edict, and I have already handed it over to Lord Huang. Lord Xue can give it to you for a look."

Huang Ying on the other side also took out the imperial edict from her arms, held the horse forward, and handed it over to Xue Shixiong.

Xue Shixiong had actually believed in the imperial edict for a long time, and at this time he was just acting. After browsing it casually for a few times, he returned it to Huang Ying.

"Prince Prince!" Xue Shixiong immediately bowed to Chen Kefu again, "Now, since the prince led Liaodong back to the court, this is not only a blessing for Liaodong, but also a blessing for the people of our Central Plains.

Since the matter has been clear, the Hebei Army and the Liaodong Army are also more important. Since this is the case, Liaodong is still the defense area of ​​the prince, and the Hebei Army of this commander will not stay. Without further ado, I will retreat to Hebei now. However, before leaving, I have a reluctance to ask, and the prince must fulfill it." Chen Kefu was slightly surprised to see Xue Shixiong being so straightforward. He heard that he still had a request, but he didn't care. "Please say, as long as this county can do it, I will never refuse." Xue Shixiong bent down and bowed to Chen Kefu, "That general thanked the prince first.

It is really not a big deal. The prince was the emperor who was in charge of the imperial court. The more than 10,000 prisoners who were trapped by the Liaodong Army with the four dogs of my family that day, and the thousands of prisoners who were captured with General Xue Dingguo yesterday. I hope the prince can remember the friendship between the army, let them return to the Hebei military camp, and return to Hebei to reunite with his family." Chen Kefu was not surprised to hear such a request. However, there were many of these prisoners, with a total of nearly 20,000 people. He also knew his situation. The so-called Prince of Beichen was just a trick used by Yang Guang to delay the army, and he borrowed a meaningless name that he occasionally used.

The Liaodong Army was about to leave Liaodong, but the Hebei Army was stuck on the road that must be passed. Sooner or later, the two sides would have to compete. Now that it is like letting the tiger go back to the mountain. Chen Kefu did not plan to do such a thing.

After several rounds of mind, Chen Kefu smiled and said, "Shi Shuai doesn't know that our Liaodong Army and Hebei Army were enemies and not friends that day. As usual, we all gave two rebels, either joined Liaodong, gave land, or even arranged for them to get married with a Liaodong woman. If we don't join Liaodong, we can only be slaves and mines in various mines in Liaodong. The wealth of our Liaodong people's lives is known to the world. Once this condition comes out, all of them are

The captive brothers all chose to join Liaodong. Now they have already married wives in Liaodong and divided the fields. The general's request is just because he is powerless. After all, there are tens of thousands of families. Does Xue Shuai bear to break up?" Xue Shixiong heard such a rogue-like angrily and said with anger, "What should we do with these families in the Central Plains? Most of them also have wives, sons, and parents in the Central Plains. Is this enough?...

"Of course this won't work. We can also connect all their families to Liaodong. There are no other things in Liaodong, that is, there are many fields and land. As long as we bring our families, we can still share the land."

Xue Shixiong gritted his teeth and said, "Then we can also let those prisoners take the women they just married back to the Central Plains."

Chen Kefu smiled and said, "I'm afraid they may not be willing. Life in the Central Plains is not easy now. Not to mention the fields, it's hard to eat even if you have enough food. I think this matter is better for those brothers to choose from. We will never stop those who are willing to return to the Central Plains. But if you don't want to go back to the Central Plains, I hope Xue Shi can send their family to Liaodong."

Xue Shixiong was already so angry that his teeth were itchy, but looking at Chen Kefu's slutty look, it would be meaningless to continue to get entangled. He had to say coldly, "This matter is serious, I cannot make the decision. I will report all the situation to the court and Your Majesty truthfully, and then everything will be decided."

Chen Kefu didn't care and only married Xue Shixiong and could not take them away. Who could snatch these people away? "Okay, just wait for Your Majesty's Holy Heart to make a decision!"

"Okay, Dingguo, Wan Shu, Wan Shu, Wan Jun, Wan Che, come and go back to Hebei with me."

Xue Shixiong no longer entangled and planned to return to Hebei immediately.

When the uncle and nephew of the Xue family heard this, they immediately prepared to go over. Chen Kefu gave his eyes, and Yuchi Jingde and other generals from Liaodong had already reached out to stop them. Xue Shixiong was already holding his hand on the horizontal knife and said in a deep voice, "Chen Pojun, what do you mean? Do you think that these people from the Xue family will still be greedy for you in a few acres of thin fields in Liaodong, and will a few native women be willing to stay in Liaodong?"

"No, Shuai Xue misunderstood. How could the Xue family have seen this miserable place in Liaodong? I left a few generals Xue, but in fact I asked them for help in one thing."

"Help? That depends on what they mean. They can stay for help or not, right?"

Chen Kefu nodded, "Things are indeed the case. I just asked them for help, but I did not intend to force themselves to ask them. Everything depends on their wishes. If they want to help, they will naturally choose to stay. If they are unwilling to help, they can choose to go back with Xue Shuai."

When Xue Shixiong heard this, he couldn't help but let go of his hand on the hilt of the knife and stroked his sparse beard. "What are you going to do, please tell me."

When Chen Kefu saw him, he smiled proudly. The four tigers of the Xue family plus one Xue Dingguo were all powerful generals. How could such a person be easily released back to the Hebei army? Chen Kefu had been thinking about how to keep them for a long time. He didn't believe it. Xue Shixiong would still object to his reason.

After riding his horse, Chen Kefu walked to Xue Shixiong and whispered, "I guess Shuai Xue also knew that this time the Turks suddenly went south, and the 300,000 army had already besieged His Majesty Yanmen?"

Xue Shixiong nodded. This matter is known today and is no secret.

"Your Majesty was surrounded by the barbarians in Yanmen. This is not only a shame for every soldier, but also a shame for every court official, and even for every Han Chinese. The Lord is worried about his ministers' humiliation, and the Lord is humiliated to his ministers' death. At such a moment, as soldiers in command, how can we sit and watch?"

"Of course not!" Xue Shixiong looked at Chen Kefu coldly, his eyes full of anger. "If Marshal Chen hadn't attacked Linyu Pass that day, I would have led a 100,000 army to Yanmen. With my 100,000 army, how could the Hu Shibi Khan be so rampant?"

"This time, that time." Chen Kefu did not argue with him. "When Pei Nayan conveyed His Majesty's imperial edict to me yesterday, he also said to me. Before he came, His Majesty had said that after receiving the order, he could accumulate Liaodong troops and fight from Wei grassland into the Turkic grassland, attack the Turkic old nests directly, and attack them. He would rescue them, surround Wei and save Zhao, and remove the siege of Yanmen."

Xue Shixiong's eyes lit up, "A good plan, as long as a cavalry penetrates the grassland quickly, the Turks will inevitably retreat north in panic."

Chen Kefu also nodded, "This is indeed a good plan. Faced with the fierce Turkic Husbands going south, we, the Han people in the Central Plains, should work together at this time. We drove the Turks out of the Central Plains together, and never let the Turks repeat the tragic situation of the Han people when the Five Barbarians invaded China. The original encounter has been decided, and all the Liaodong cavalry will be launched and the Turks will be killed in the Wei grassland."

"If the prince is so embarrassed, please accept a greeting from Xue!" Xue Shixiong bowed to Chen Kefu.

Seeing Xue Shixiong gradually being introduced into the trap by himself, Chen Kefu felt more and more happy, but his face was still full of worry.

"This is the duty of being a frontier soldier, so there is no need to be like this. Now everything is ready, but the general of the Liaodong is mostly a place of mountain and mausoleum. Although he had pacified the Shichariots at the beginning, it was just a small army and a small tribe like Shiwei. Now he was going deep into the Turkic grassland, but his body was not enough. I knew that Xue Dingguo and the four young generals of the Xue family were all on the border of Zhuojun grasslands of Jiuzhen. Especially General Xue Dingguo, I heard that he often broke into the grasslands in previous years, which greatly promoted the prestige of our Chinese Han people."

The Xue family members there felt a little hot when they heard Chen Kefu mentioning the story of Xue Dingguo entering the grassland. It was not a glorious thing for Xue Dingguo to enter the grassland. This guy guarded the border, but he often couldn't do anything. He pretended to be a bandit on the grassland, often stormed into the grassland, and robbed those small tribes on the grassland.

For a commander of a first army like Xue Shixiong, having such a subordinate is a shame for their Zhuo County and the Xue family.

Seeing their appearance, Chen Kefu hurriedly said, "I have no malice, but I know that the five generals Xue are all very familiar with the grassland. So this time I entered the grassland, and I want to invite five generals Xue who are familiar with the grassland to enter the grassland together to make the vanguard of our army. I still don't know if Xue and the five generals Xue are willing?"

Xue Dingguo’s uncle and nephew looked at each other, and their eyes were a little moved, and they all looked at Xue Shixiong.

"Go, if I didn't have a heavy position, I would be willing to go to the grassland in person." Xue Shixiong said calmly, and after saying that, he didn't say anything, turned around and rode his horse back and forth. In less than a while, he saw one commander after another running horse in front of the Hebei army formation, and the formation began to move slowly. Not long after, the army had already set up camp and retreated to the west like a tide.

ps2: In yesterday's chapter, there were mistakes in the thirteen counties in Lingnan. It should be the thirteen counties in Lingnan. The Chen Dynasty had 51 counties. The total of all counties in the Great Sui Dynasty should be 190 counties, plus the seven counties in Liaoben and Shiwei later. Therefore, the Great Sui Dynasty had 197 counties. At this time, the Chen Dynasty occupied 51 counties, Chen Kefu occupied 15 counties, Wagang accounted for 7, and the three peasant troops in Hebei accounted for one counties. All the anti-army troops had occupied 76 counties, and the Sui Dynasty still controlled 121 counties, and the world had lost one third.)!
