Chapter 133 [Military Order]
Xiao Lingzhi suddenly asked Han Mo, and Xiao Huaijin and others were also a little strange. In their eyes, Xiao Lingzhi and Han Mo seemed to be a little wrong. As the saying goes, it is better if Han Mo doesn't come? Why does Xiao Lingzhi ask?
Xiao Huaijin couldn't help asking: "Yes, Lingzhi, are there anything you need to find Nephew Han Shi?"
Xiao Lingzhi did not answer immediately, but just pondered for a moment before asking: "Mr. Han, how long will it take to gather troops to attack Ligu Pass again?"
Han Xuanchang frowned and asked back, "The military advisor is still preparing to let us attack Ligu Pass?"
Xiao Huaijin couldn't help but say, "Lingzhi, after this battle, we have lost our troops and generals, and our morale is low. We should fix it for a few days. This... let's wait!"
"What the General said is very true." Han Xuanchang nodded immediately.
In today's battle, the Xiao Han family suffered a lot of losses. They left behind thousands of corpses, but they didn't even get close to the door. The morale was declining. If they continued to attack, it would only increase the casualties.
Han Xuanchang and Xiao Huaijin were already in pain for the lost people. Those were all direct descendants of the family. They were lost at Ligu Pass, and no one wanted to continue to lose their strength to attack.
"No!" Xiao Lingzhi looked firm and her voice was unusually cold. She said in an uncontroversial tone: "General, uncles, we must gather our troops immediately to prepare for a second attack, perhaps the last attack on Ligu Pass!"
Han Xuanchang frowned and said lightly: "Military advisor, Li Guchuan is easy to defend but difficult to attack. You have also seen the war today. The soldiers of your and my family tried their best, but they could not even get close to the closing. At this time, they were exhausted. Even if they wanted to fight, they had to fix it before they could complete it?"
"Although our army failed in the first battle, there were only more than 10,000 people participating in the attack. I was 80,000 elite soldiers. It would be easy to draw out energetic warriors." Xiao Lingzhi also said coldly: "If we don't continue the attack, we may delay it. The soldiers will be even more depressed because of the small Ligu Pass."
All of them were silent.
In fact, in my heart, everyone did not really take Xiao Lingzhi seriously. A young girl came to come and point fingers at this life-and-death battle. Apart from her indifference, no one could see any special difference in her. If it weren't for the great power of the Xiao family and Xiao Lingzhi was also the military advisor of the emperor's imperial seal, no one would have paid attention to her words.
However, this girl was determined to continue attacking. Everyone was confused, not knowing what she was thinking, but deep down she felt that this girl was afraid she was eager to seek merit. As a military advisor, if she could not conquer Ligu Pass under her command, it would be difficult to explain to the court.
Han Xuanchang was even more thinking, and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Lingzhi, thinking in his heart: "This girl is indeed a member of the Xiao family. She is vicious and wants the soldiers to die in vain in order to make contributions to herself. I can't let him do everything."
Although he was extremely tough inside, his temperament was always gentle and did not confront him. If Ximen Leizang, who was like a fire, had so many direct soldiers killed, and he would still be asked to attack, it would be strange if he didn't turn against him.
Xiao Huaijin pondered for a moment and finally asked softly: "Lingzhi, why should I rush to continue the attack?"
Xiao Lingzhi sighed and said slowly: "At this point, there is one thing that seems to be something that I have to tell you about!"
"What's the matter?" Ximen Leizang asked first with his big eyes open.
Everyone also focused their attention on Xiao Lingzhi.
Xiao Lingzhi thought for a while and finally said, "My uncles, I have installed an army in Ligu Pass as an internal agent. I will issue a secret code tonight. If the secret code is issued, they will open the door. At that time, our army will break through the pass and enter!"
"What?" Everyone was shocked.
Xiao Lingzhi did not tell Han Mo. After all, in terms of identity, although they are all children of aristocratic families, Han Mo has no official position. He is at least a military advisor named by the emperor. If he said that the inner person should be arranged by himself, although these people would not fully believe it, it would be better than saying that it was arranged by Han Mo.
After things go well, it will not be too late to reward merits and then.
But her words shocked the big guys. The few of them looked at each other, and their faces showed a look of disbelief.
Although the political form of Yan State is very deformed, there is no doubt that for the aristocratic families, especially for the nine aristocratic families, it is undoubtedly a system like heaven.
The jurisdiction of each family is actually a small kingdom. Although there are many officials inserted by the imperial court, in the final analysis, the families of each aristocratic firmly control all rights in their own territory.
Just like Bozhou County, the power from top to bottom is completely controlled by the Ye and Wu families. Even if it is an army of hundreds of people, it is firmly controlled by the Ye and Wu families.
In this way, a strong family-like cohesion was formed, and there was almost no possibility of rebellion in the family army controlled by the family.
This is different from the systems of other countries. Other families, counties, prefectures and counties are all officials appointed by the court, and officials receive salaries from the court. In this way, it is not difficult to buy some people from it.
But Yan State is different. For example, Bozhou County, you cannot buy their generals because the generals are family members. If they rebel and act as internal supporters of the court, it is equivalent to dealing with themselves. It is reasonable to say.
So when several bigwigs heard Xiao Lingzhi claim that there was an army inside the pass, they were stunned at first, but soon became suspicious. However, Xiao Lingzhi's expression was extremely serious, giving people the feeling that there was really such an army.
Xiao Huaijin was obviously confused and said softly: "Lingzhi, this...is important, it cannot be..." He hesitated, but the words "speak nonsense" were held in his stomach and did not vomit.
Su Guanya also looked solemn and asked in a deep voice: "How many people are there?"
"I don't know!" Xiao Lingzhi shook her head.
Everyone was stunned again.
Han Xuanchang also asked: "Military advisor, you don't even know how many people there are. How do you determine that they are the inner responders? The Ligu Pass defenders, initially estimated, there are thousands of people on the level, and the inner gate must be a large army. If you want to break through the Chong Chong military formation and reach the bottom of the gate, that is not something you can do by saying it."
Ximen Leizang continued: "Military advisor, I, Ximen Leizang, are a rough man, speak straightforwardly, and say the wrong words, don't take it seriously. Do you want to use this as a reason to inspire the soldiers to attack Ligu Pass? I am ugly, but I am in the forefront. If my brothers attack Ligu Pass, if they do not have an internal support, they will be disappointed and their morale will be even more frustrated. At that time, the military advisor will be to blame."
Xiao Lingzhi pondered.
When Han Mo found her at dusk yesterday, he clearly told her that there was an army inside the pass to serve as an internal force. Once the secret code was issued, the city gate would be opened soon. After seeing the secret code, the aristocratic army must ensure that they can attack Ligu Pass with all their strength, and cooperate with the inside and outside.
"You must ensure that after the secret code is launched, the aristocratic army will attack with all their might!" Han Mo said seriously at the time: "Otherwise, it would be an internal army, and it would be very likely that it would be annihilated!"
Seeing Han Xuanchang and others looking suspicious, even Xiao Huaijin seemed to be a little unbelievable that there would be an inner support within the pass. Xiao Lingzhi bit her lips and pondered.
Han Mo has no trace, where did he go?
Will an almost impossible internal response really appear?
Thinking of Han Mo's serious and firm face at that time, Xiao Lingzhi's hesitant state of mind suddenly became firm. Although she had only seen Han Mo a few times, she left a deep impression on her every time. Perhaps there were some things that made her disgusted, but strangely, that guy left a very special impression on her. It seemed that as long as it was something he wanted to do, it could really be done, even if there was a miracle.
It’s like a bet with Yan Xueji. The unprecedented method is to win the mysterious Yan Xueji.
No one could have thought of this beforehand.
"I can issue a military order!" Xiao Lingzhi finally said, with a firm expression: "If the inner escort does not appear, I am willing to accept military law!"
"Military advisor, military orders are not a joke. Once they are made, even the emperor will not be able to change them." Su Guanya said slowly: "Military advisors are like mountains. If there is a real mistake and the soldiers will be sacrificed in vain, the military advisor's crime will be great."
Xiao Lingzhi said lightly: "I understand, I am willing to issue a military order."
Xiao Huaijin hurriedly said, "Lingzhi, you have thought about it. Military orders are not a joke. Are you sure that there will be an insider?"
"The general doesn't have to worry, Lingzhi has his own qualities." Xiao Lingzhi's expression was calm: "After I make a military order, I would like to ask all the elite troops of my subordinates to mobilize all the elite troops. Once the signal is heard, this time, Ximen Shibo and Su Shibo will lead their subordinates as vanguards to tackle the problem. The entire army will attack and enter the pass in one fell swoop!"
Ximen Leizang and Su Guanya looked at each other, and they naturally understood that the Xiao Han family played the lead in the first round. This time it was their turn. They stood up and fisted and said, "Abide by the order!"
Ximen Leizang asked again: "Military advisor, but I don't know what signal it is?"
"Hundreds of diabolic arrows were fired at once!" Xiao Lingzhi said: "Hundreds of diabolic arrows will be shot into the air at the same time. The sound will probably be resounding through the sky. Then it will be the time for our army to attack with all its might!"
Xiao Lingzhi made a military order, and watched everyone leave the bill to prepare for the war, and slowly walked out of the big tent. Looking at Ligu Pass where the torch was lit, it began to snow in the sky again, like the feathers of swans, floating down from the air.
"Han Mo, where have you died?" Xiao Lingzhi bit her lip and said to herself.
