Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 520 Love

Due to the tense situation in the southwest, the communication between Li Xin and the Mu family was greatly hindered, so there was not much contact between them. After Li Xin drove Mu Ying back to the Mu family, the two only got through three or four letters. .

  To be honest, Li Xinxin was somewhat uneasy.

Even His Majesty the emperor, there is a saying that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there are people who act unscrupulously, not to mention that Li Xin and Mu Ying are not the same superior-subordinate relationship as they used to be. It will be somewhat uneasy.

  If Mu Ying goes against the water and stops helping Li Xin, then Li Xin will be passive in the southwest, and may even die in Fucheng!

   Therefore, the arrival of this Mu family head makes Li Xin very happy.

  Li Xin led him all the way to the study room of the county government office, held the junior salute, poured him a cup of tea with his own hands, and then sat across from Mu Qing with a smile.

   "From Hanzhou to here, there are many dangers along the way. How did Uncle Mu get here?"

Mu Qing smiled: "Master Hou, this Southwest used to be Nanshu for more than a hundred years, and we, the survivors of Nanshu, may not have any skills now, so we can only hide and survive, but there is no problem where we want to go. "

The southwest has been occupied by the Pingnan Army for more than 30 years, but the Pingnan Army is an outsider after all, and the remnants of Nanshu led by Li Xing are still active, so the old Nanshu still has a very high status in the hearts of Shujun people. Gao, as Muqing, it is not difficult to bypass Mianzhu from Hanzhou to Fucheng. If he wants, he can even pass through Mianzhu City to Fucheng.

  The Marquis of Jing An was stunned for a while, and then he understood what Mu Qing meant. He offered Mu Qing a cup of tea and said with a smile, "It was Li Xin who underestimated Uncle Mu's ability."

   Mu Qing didn't dare to be negligent, raised the teacup, half an inch lower than Li Xin.

   Li Xin asked with a smile, "Uncle Mu, how is the situation with Brother Mu?"

   "Alright."

Mu Qing put down the teacup, lowered her eyebrows and said: "Nowadays, Mu Ying can basically have the final say on the people who get it from His Highness, but the Pingnan Army has always been worried about us, and sent a partial division to die. Staring at Hanzhou City, once Mu Qing makes a change, this partial teacher will react immediately and stop Mu Qing in Hanzhou."

   Li Xin frowned and said, "How many people are in this branch?"

   "It is estimated that there are ten or twenty thousand."

Mu Qing frowned and said: "The problem is not how many people they have, the problem is that we are unlikely to clear these 20,000 people in one fell swoop, as long as we give them room to breathe, Jincheng will be on the edge of Hanzhou, and then we will You can't win against the Southern Army."

In fact, according to Li Xin's calculations, the remaining Pingnan Army in Jincheng is definitely not too many, at most 40,000 to 50,000 people. Fifty thousand people is very different.

There are indeed 50,000 people under Mu Ying's hands, but Nanshu has been subjugated for more than 30 years. Although these 50,000 strong men can gather together under the call of His Highness Li Xing, they cannot be regarded as regular troops after all. At best, it can only be described as a militia.

  Although I don't want to admit it, but compared to the Pingnan Army, with the same strength, Mu Ying's troops have absolutely no chance of winning.

   Therefore, Mu Ying's 50,000 people will only be watched by Li Shen's 10,000 or 20,000 people in Hanzhou City.

  Li Xin heard the words, lowered his head and thought for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "Uncle Mu, I can help you hold down the main force of the Pingnan Army in Jincheng. How soon can you get rid of the partial division that Li Shen placed near Hanzhou City?"

   Mu Qing was stunned.

Although I don't quite understand what the young Marquis in front of me has the ability to hold down the main force of the Pingnan Army in this situation, after all, most of what Li Xin said before has already been realized, so the Mu family still trusts Li Xin very much. Yes, after hearing this, he thought about it for a long time, and finally answered very seriously: "It will take at least two ten days."

  Twenty days...

   Now it was Li Xin's turn to frown.

He could think of a very simple way to contain Jincheng, which is to pretend to attack Mianzhu. No matter what, Jincheng will divide troops to rescue Jincheng. As long as Li Xin pretends to attack the city, then the strength of Jincheng will be reduced. At least half of them should be attracted to Mianzhu by him.

   But feint attack can’t be feint attack all the time. It’s easy to fool one or two days, but for twenty days, it’s impossible to fool it with the word feint attack.

   In 20 days, Li Xin had to attack Mianzhu with real swords and guns no matter what, otherwise it would be impossible to attract Jincheng's attention for 20 days.

   If the fight is real, people will die, and more people will die than in Fucheng.

If Mu Ying's subordinate was Li Xin's direct descendant Yulinwei, Li Xin would probably order an attack on Mianzhu without hesitation in the same situation at this time to cover for "Yulinwei", but now the object of this cover is Nanshu The survivors are uncontrollable factors.

   Li Xin was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether it was right to let the people from the forbidden army go to their deaths and buy time for the soldiers and horses in the southern border.

   After a long time, Lord Jingan gritted his teeth.

   "Okay. Just twenty days!"

Li Xin was ruthless, and said solemnly: "Uncle Mu, I will prepare to attack Mianzhu in a short time, and the Pingnan Army will definitely support it. At that time, you should inform Brother Mu and let him take his 50,000 sons and kill them. The encirclement of the Southern Army!"

These words sounded enthusiastic, but Mu Qing had already passed the age of hot dance, he frowned for a long time, and then asked: "Master Hou, after cleaning up this partial division of Ping Nanjun, Mu Ying should go where?"

  Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and said, "At that time, if my side hadn't been defeated, Brother Mu should have come to help me fight Mianzhu together."

To be honest, this is a very risky move. After all, Li Xin is now huddled in Fucheng. Even if he can't do anything, at least he can ensure his safety, but if he goes to buy time for Mu Ying, he will put himself in danger. .

Mianzhu was the last gateway to Jincheng. Li Shen must have attached great importance to it, and even set up a trap in Mianzhu to wait for Li Xin to get in. If Li Xinzhen went to feign Mianzhu, or even attacked Mianzhu on his own initiative, he would most likely be held by the Pingnan Army by his tail. Take a hard bite.

   But there is no way.

   In the current situation, although Li Xin has taken the initiative, he is still in a stalemate. There is no way to break the situation without risk. Li Xin decided to give it a try.

Fortunately, he didn't take too much risk this time. Even if there is no way to implement it perfectly, it is impossible for the Pingnan Army to eat his forbidden army and Mu Ying's militia at the same time. At most, Mu Ying can't get out of Hanzhou. Cheng, or Li Xin's side, lost to the point of injury.

   These two bad endings are all within the acceptable range of Li Xin.

   He faced Mu Qing and said solemnly.

   "Uncle Mu, I will help you hold on for 20 days no matter what. Once Brother Mu escapes from Hanzhou City, he will immediately lead his troops back to Mianzhu. As long as we can take Mianzhu, the big thing will be done!"

   Mu Qing also had a solemn expression, and slowly got up and saluted.

   "Since Lord Hou can trust the Mu family so much, the Mu family will live up to the trust of Lord Hou in this lifetime!"

  Li Xin shook his head slightly.

   "To be honest with Uncle Mu, I'm not very familiar with the Mu family. Even Uncle Mu, I haven't seen you many times, but I believe in the Mu family because of my relationship with Brother Mu."

   "Li Xin is willing to believe Brother Mu!"
