Han Shiye is a famous general and a powerful general who has been in battle for a long time, while Zhou Zhongtong is a famous general and a powerful general who has been in battle for a long time. But now Zhou Zhong is in charge of his own leadership and stands alone, while Han Shiye is in charge of the central army and protects the command. This gap is huge. In the best way, it is to shoulder heavy responsibilities, but in the worst way, it is that you are not capable enough, which is unacceptable to the proud and conceited Han Shiye.

Back then, their fathers, Han Qinhu and Zhou Luohu, were their opponents, and they were their own leaders, fighting on the battlefield with deep hatred. When it came to Han Shiyan and Zhou Zhong's generation, although the hatred had become weak, the factional struggle was even more intense. In this Yang Xuangan mutiny, Han Shiyan was a participant, and Zhou Zhong was forcibly "pulled into the water". The two of them became bandits together, and the old hatreds were all in their hearts. The relationship was illusory. Now Li Fengyun and Li Zixiong valued Zhou Zhong, but suppressed Han Shiyan. How could the arrogant Han Shiyan bear it?

Han Shiyan was so righteous and took the initiative to volunteer to select a front for the Northern Expedition. This was obviously a difficult situation for Li Fengyun. He pointed the finger at Li Fengyun directly, and wanted to confront each other and draw his sword.

Li Fengyun had long expected that Han Shiye would openly oppose and deliberately provoke conflicts. The reason was very simple. Han Shiye was pessimistic about the Northern Expedition and had no intention or motivation to go out to fight. If it were not for Zhou Zhong and Lai Yuan and other Jiang Zuo people who decided to go out to fight, Han Shiye was very passive and isolated and helpless, and was targeted by the public, he had to agree in the end, otherwise Han Shiye would not go out to fight. However, the decision behind Zhou Zhong and Lai Yuan and other Jiang Zuo people who decided to go out to fight was not simply for military achievements. In fact, just relying on military achievements may not be possible.

When you get pardon from the Holy Lord, the Holy Lord also depends on who the target is. For example, Zhou Zhong, Lai Yuan and other Jiangzuo people are all the direct descendants of the Holy Lord. Pardon will be beneficial to the Holy Lord. It is better for all Zhou Zhong, Lai Yuan and others to have military achievements, so they can be forgiven for granting it for granted. If you don’t have military achievements, you can also forgive them. On the contrary, Li Zixiong, Han Shiyan and others are all political enemies of the Holy Lord. Wouldn’t you cause trouble if you pardon them? Take a step back and say that even if you start from the overall situation and forgive them, the treatment after the pardon will definitely be very different.

Li Zixiong, Han Shiyan knew this very clearly, but Li Zixiong had very low requirements. He was old and had a few years to live. He just wanted to clear the name of "thief" before his death, so that future generations could continue to enjoy wealth and glory. Therefore, Li Zixiong had no choice. He was still alive and seized all the opportunities he could seize. Han Shiyan was in his prime and had high requirements. Not only did he want to clear the name of "thief" but he also had to return to his career. So he had many choices. He chose the King of Qi. He firmly believed that Middle-earth could win the Civil War and believed that the King of Qi was able to dominate the northern border. For this reason, he wanted to preserve his strength.

Without strength, everything is fantasy. If you want to preserve your strength, you cannot go out to fight, and you cannot waste your limited power on things that have no great benefits to him. Compared with the huge risk of regaining Anzhou in the Northern Expedition, Han Shiyan is more willing to stay in Yanbei to ensure safety. After all, as Li Fengyun said just now, the biggest beneficiary of the victory of the Northern Expedition is the Alliance, and Han Shiyan believes that he is just a passerby in the Alliance and a temporary partner. The interests of the Alliance have no direct relationship with his personal interests. In this case, what reason does he have and what is the need to sacrifice himself for the Alliance?

Li Fengyun smiled, as if he admired Han Shiye's spirit of "resoluteness and dying with mercy" and turned a blind eye to his aggressive edge. When answering Han Shiye, he also said that the close cooperation on the battlefield of Dongdu gave the two a certain degree of trust. It was this trust that made Han Shiye make the right choice at a critical moment. Otherwise, now he had already been destroyed, had already given Yang Xuangan a burial, and had long lost the possibility of struggling to survive.

"Two months ago on the battlefield in Xingyang, you made a resolute decision and went north with someone. As a result, today we arrived in Yanbei and sat on the shore of Qiyishui to discuss the plan to go out of the frontier." Li Fengyun said sincerely, "We turned the impossible into a possibility. This is enough to prove that the power of sincere cooperation is very great. Brothers work together to cut off gold. Only by clenching their fists can you defeat everything. Recovering Anzhou is also impossible at present. In the unfavorable situation of no food and grass inside and no reinforcements outside, we not only have to fight alone, but also have to be together.

It is impossible to travel nearly two thousand miles apart within a month to reach the Gubeikou Great Wall, but we have no choice. If we want to survive and grow, we must turn decay into magic, turn impossible into possibility, and create miracles. A month later, when we arrived in Anzhou, stood under the Great Wall of Gubeikou, and discussed the plan to kill the enemy together? We created miracles again and again and again, then who else can stop us from moving forward in the world?”?/p>

Li Fengyun was passionate and imposing, and the generals in the tent were also full of passion and fighting spirit.

Han Shiyan was as calm as water, very calm. He knew that if he wanted to stay, he had to anger Li Fengyun and let Li Fengyun "kick" him away. He could not take the initiative to raise it anyway, otherwise he would have to be charged with the crime of greed for life and fear of death. In this way, his reputation would be ruined. Once his subordinates were disinterested, the King of Qi would be disgusted and he had no way out, that would be to shoot himself in the foot and seek death.

Li Fengyun saw through his thoughts and would never be fooled. "Kicking" Han Shiyan away is a small matter, and shaking the morale of the army is a big matter. The Northern Expedition has just started, and the Great Wall is still hundreds of miles away. Song Mo is even more out of reach. Before the plan has been launched, internal conflicts broke out. This will inevitably seriously affect the morale and confidence of the soldiers and cast a thick shadow on the Northern Expedition. Therefore, Li Fengyun's attitude is very clear. You can refuse to go out of the frontier, but you suggest it yourself. It is your business for you to be despised. You cannot affect my Northern Expedition.

Li Fengyun made a big statement, using "brothers to work together" to vaguely expose Han Shiye's true intention of "being brave to be the leader" and did not respond directly to Han Shiye's request from beginning to end. In fact, it was to directly reject Han Shiye's request. The Northern Expedition was related to the survival of the alliance and the life and death of 40,000 soldiers. There was no room for mistakes, so I personally led the elite main force to charge forward, and would not allow any risk factor at all.

Han Shiye was determined to anger Li Fengyun, ignored Li Fengyun's persuasion and warning, and continued to "chase and fight hard". "In order to recover Anzhou and create new miracles, he firmly demanded to be the pioneer and fight to the death."

Li Fengyun laughed silently, looked at Han Shiyan who was "righteous" and asked calmly, "Is Xinyi Gong very familiar with the terrain of the Lightning River, Songmo and Ruoluo River? Do you know how to cross the flat pine forests of hundreds of miles?"

Han Shiyan shook his head, "Someone is not familiar with, some know nothing about Song Mo, but some can find a guide who leads the way."

"Guide?" Li Fengyun smiled, "Mr. Xinyi is sure that he can find a guide in the desert? Are you sure that after we leave the frontier, the tribes of the desert will not move, but will continue to stay in a distance, allowing us to burn, kill and loot? Take a step back, even if Mr. Xinyi finds the guide as he wishes, this guide is trustworthy and loyal. So is Mr. Xinyi is sure that with this guide alone, you can lead the army out of the flat pine forest safely and smoothly?"

Han Shiyan also smiled and asked without hesitation, "Are you familiar with the terrain? Do you know how to cross the pine desert? Are you absolutely sure to walk out of the flat pine forest?"

Li Fengyun smiled even more, with a meaningful smile, "Xinyi Gong is right, some are the best guide. Some are not only familiar with the terrain, but also know how to cross the pine forest, but also have the absolute certainty to walk out of the flat pine forest."

Han Shiye was surprised, "What are the evidence?"

"I have a name outside the Great Wall, called Brother Dao." Li Fengyun smiled, "When I arrived in Huaihuang, you can ask Hu Jia privately and you will know how famous a person is outside the Great Wall."

Han Shiye heard about this. Li Fengyun was a giant bandit in the northeast in the past, and was notorious. Otherwise, he would not have been targeted by the Northern Frontier garrisons, nor would he be surrounded and hunted before the Eastern Expedition. However, Han Shiye did not have an intuitive concept of how powerful this giant bandit was. In his opinion, at most he was a thief who gathered in the mountains and forests. Dozens or even hundreds of people were already amazing.

"How famous are you in the Great Wall?" Han Shiye teased, "Does your reputation be so famous that it even surpasses the King of the Captains?"

Li Fengyun shook his hand repeatedly, "In Songmo, especially in the flat pine forest, a certain person is the strongest and is the leader of the thieves. He joined forces with the thieves to firmly control the Songmo passage, kill people and rob, and make a big profit. However, this move was equivalent to blocking the connection between the desert and the northeast, which was very unfavorable for the Turks to control the Northeast's enemy. Therefore, the Turks joined forces with Xi, Wu and Khitan to encircle and suppress the Songmo thieves. The enemy was strong and we were weak, and we were outnumbered. Some people decisively broke into pieces, broke through separately, hibernated patiently, and waited for the opportunity to come back."

This is the first time that Li Fengyun has told his past stories in public. Everyone listened carefully. Everyone heard something unusual from this story. They realized that behind this battle to regain Anzhou, there seemed to be more unknown secrets hidden.

Han Shiyan was very surprised. He didn't expect that Li Fengyun, a giant Northeastern bandit, was actually the target of the enemy outside the frontier. "In this way, you were chased and killed during this breakout, surrounded by people, and finally fell into the hands of our border army?"

Li Fengyun smiled but said nothing, which was a default.

"In this way, the mission you had undertaken failed." Han Shiye immediately had some idea, "You have to recover Anzhou today, and you actually have to complete your mission."

Li Fengyun still didn't speak, but the expression on his face told everyone that Han Shiye's guess was completely correct.

Han Shiye was very surprised. He never expected that he accidentally hit Li Fengyun. Although he did not anger Li Fengyun, he forced Li Fengyun to reveal a huge secret. It turned out that Pei Shiju had been trying to cut off the control of the Turks over the Northeastern enemy for a long time, and tried to repel the disadvantages of the northern border towns by regaining Anzhou. In other words, Pei Shiju had planned this matter for many years, and Li Fengyun had also worked hard outside the Great Wall for many years. The early deployment should be basically in place. This time, Li Fengyun led a 40,000 army to fight north to complete the final blow, so the chances of winning in the northern border should be very high, and he should be optimistic about regaining Anzhou.

Han Shiye thought of the admonition that Li Fengyun had just said. The reason why he made the right choice on the battlefield in Xingyang was because he was desperate. There was only one choice at that time. But today in Yanbei, how should he choose?
