Liu Zhan touched Hou Quan's arm, pursed his lips towards Niu Jin, and said with some dissatisfaction: "I say Hou Quan, you are the commander-in-chief of this operation. Niu Jin is the one who is gesticulating here. You

Don’t you have any ideas at all?”

Niu Jin has been very active since he convinced many bandit forces. Li Xun's orders are mainly based on Hou Quan, with Liu Zhan and Niu Jin as his deputies. But now it seems that Niu Jin is more like

Commander-in-Chief, Liu Zhan was a little confused as to why Hou Quan acted very coldly and cooperated with Niu Jin without complaining at all.

Hou Quan shook his head and said softly: "The Marshal once said that a person's thinking will change according to his own butt. Niu Jin used to be just a small general, inconspicuous and indifferent. You can't tell.

What, now it seems that he is a very courageous person. You and I are not as good as him. In this case, we should cooperate obediently. When things are done, everyone has credit, but whose credit is greater or less."

Liu Zhan was unconvinced and said: "When it comes to courage, he has it, but you don't have it? Besides, the commander-in-chief gave a fatal order. Even without him, we can only hold on for at least three days. It doesn't matter."

Is he behaving like this?"

Liu Zhan was a little dissatisfied with Niu Jin's style. Everyone was of equal status. What qualifications did he, Niu Jin, have to command this and that in the style of a superior?

In fact, Liu Zhan and Niu Jin had a very good personal relationship. They were both bandits. Under Li Xun, they were also shunned by others and had the same experience. Naturally, the two became good friends quickly, but some things...

Let’s not talk about personal friendships or anything like that, this is normal human psychology.

Hou Quan was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "I don't have Niu Jin's decisiveness. For example, I can't do this kind of courage and courage to get rid of all the bandit leaders. Now it seems that Niu Jin did the right thing."

, the bandit leader was killed, and their men took over the military power. Once they got the power, they had no way out and could only follow Niu Jin and fight to the death."

Liu Zhan said softly: "This kid Niu Jin doesn't look so tough usually. Isn't he afraid of death?"

Hou Quan chuckled and said coldly: "No one is not afraid of death. When I received the commander's order, I felt afraid in my heart, but I had no choice. I am a soldier and can only obey orders. The same is true for Niu Jin, but he dared to give up everything

The idea is to kill decisively and fight to the death. This kind of courage is stronger than mine. As far as you, Liu Zhan, are not afraid of death?"

Liu Zhan shrank his head: "Of course I'm afraid of death. I'm afraid that if I die, no one will take care of my mother."

Hou Quan patted Liu Zhan's shoulder and said nothing. He Hou Quan had the courage and dared to risk his life, but he also had concerns. Hou Quan was not yet twenty-five this year. He was so young and had a great future, and he died in

How to be willing here? The same is true for Liu Zhan. If he dies, who will take care of his mother? Niu Jin is different. For fame and future, he can use everything to win, including his own life. This is what Hou Quan and

Liu Zhan is far beyond comparison.

Hou Quan looked at Niu Jin who was busy not far away. He had an idea in his mind. Li Xun always made clear rewards and punishments, fair and just. Regardless of his family background, if he succeeded in blocking Tubo this time, Niu Jin would be the first to take credit.

, after the war, Li Xun will definitely reward him heavily, at least one of the lieutenants will not be able to escape, and Hou Quan also understands that if Li Xun can return to Wuzhou and take his position to a higher level, he will definitely get it.

With the emperor's full promotion, this war has made a lot of contributions. After the war is over, Li Xun's position will probably not only be the military governor of Wuzhou, but also the military governor of several states.

With the expansion of power, many people will get corresponding opportunities and promotions. Hou Quan is thinking that if this momentum continues, Niu Jin may one day be able to enter the power of Li Xun.

The core has a place in the core circle.

Hou Quan's thoughts were a little far away, and a lieutenant came over and reported: "General Hou, Niu Jin asked our brothers to disperse around to command and supervise the battle. General, please give me your instructions."

Hou Quan brought out 500 people. These people are all elites. They are all professional soldiers. It is not as simple as the bandits thought. They just listen to whoever comes forward. The bandits still don’t know. In fact, this group

In the team, Hou Quan is the leader, and Niu Jin is just the deputy.

Liu Zhan looked at Hou Quan, waiting for his decision.

Hou Quan thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Tell brothers, from now on, Niu Jin's orders come first. If he has any orders, there is no need to report them to me and they will be executed immediately."

The governor glanced at Hou Quan in surprise, but without asking any more questions, he nodded and took the order to leave.

Liu Zhan smiled bitterly and said, "Hou Quan, you are very thoughtful."

Hou Quan smiled, walked to the city wall, looked at the Tibetan army gathering in the distance, and said silently: "When a disaster is approaching, we should first think about how to survive."

Liu Zhan sighed: "There are still two days left, how difficult it is."

Ge Wa stared coldly at the distant town of Xiaogu County. Under his feet, two bright red heads were lying on the ground with dead eyes on their faces. They were two generals from Tubo. Ge Wa gave the death order, and they led 20,000 troops to attack the city.

The city cannot be captured before dark, and the enemy will be killed immediately. The retreat is cut off. At this moment, Gewa is already a little crazy. If you can't do the order I gave you, even if you are a close confidant, you will die.

The army's three attacks were all repelled, but the situation was not as bad as imagined. Although there were tens of thousands of casualties, the Jin army defending the city also suffered heavy casualties. This made Gewa extremely happy. He also learned that the troops defending the city also suffered heavy casualties.

It was that rabble from before. How could such a group of people be able to stop his own army of nearly a hundred thousand men?

Gewa's eyes were on the left and right sides, and he inspected dozens of generals. Then he called the names of five generals and asked them to lead their own troops. Nearly 35,000 people had a full meal.

The attack on the city began one hour later. Four hours later, that is, before dawn, Xiaogu County could not be captured. The leading general and more than 20 of his lieutenants were all beheaded.

Ge Wa had become crazy, and Niu Jin was even crazier. He used strong methods to push the family members who had accompanied the bandits down the mountain, as well as the people in the city, a total of nearly 60,000 civilians, onto the city wall, and lived and died with Xiaogu County.

A new round of siege began soon. The Tubo attack was more fierce and powerful than before. Gewa originally thought that he could successfully capture Xiaogu County, but the result was unexpected. Xiaogu County's defense force was not strong.

It did not weaken at all, but became stronger. The two sides fought fiercely until dawn. After nearly 15,000 casualties, the Tibetans failed to attack the city again.

"Your Majesty, I would like to see the five generals."

The deputy commander of the soldiers came to report.

Ge Wa said coldly: "How dare they come to see me? Pull them down and behead them all."
