Chapter 156 Arrogant General Mu
There were a bunch of tails behind him. To be honest, it was not a big problem. After all, as long as he left the capital or within the scope of Jingzhao Mansion, Chen Gang and others would naturally follow Li Xin secretly. At that time, Xie Dai and more than 100 people would basically not pose any threat to Li Xin.
When they reach the southwest, the life and death of Xie Dai and others will be in Li Xin's hands.
However, Li Xin still had some feelings for Yu Linwei, and he admired Xie Dai, a young man from the Xie family, so he was not prepared to make things difficult for these Yu Linlang, just pretended that he had brought a group of guards by his side.
Originally, it took about half a month to get there from the capital to the southwest, but Li Xin was riding a carriage, and the speed of the carriage was far less than that of riding a horse. Therefore, after they set out from the capital, they took nearly a month to get to the southwest.
At this time, it was April of the ninth year of Taikang, and the spring flowers had withered.
Li Xin and others entered Shu from Hanzhong and then arrived at Jiange.
They stopped at the Jianmen Pass.
Jianmen Pass is a valley that is as if it was split by a sharp sword. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It has been the most solid gateway in Shu since ancient times, but at this time, Jianmen Pass has changed its flag, and a large "Li" flag sways in the wind on the city of Guan.
Xie Dai stood behind Li Xin, looked at Li's flag on the city wall, and looked at Li Xin in surprise.
Marquis Jing'an felt the gaze of this guy and looked at him angrily.
"This is Li from the Han royal family, not me."
Xie Dai wiped the sweat from his forehead and lowered his head and said, "Mr. Marquis, do you need to go to the official and call to open and close the door?"
Li Xin shook his head slightly: "No, let's wait here, someone will come to pick us up later."
Li Shuo, who had already taken off his cotton robe and put on a single dress, stood behind Li Xin and looked at Jianmen Pass.
When the Hanzhou army attacked Jiange, his subordinates also had people. Later, some of his men were stationed at Jianmen Pass. When he left the southwest and went to the capital, these people were still at Jianmen Pass, and they should be there at this time.
At this time, Chen Gang and others had already reported the letter to Jianmen Pass early. Li Xin didn't wait long before Jianmen Pass closed and opened. Mu Ying, wearing black armor, led more than a hundred people to greet Li Xin.
At the same time, dozens of people wearing Pingnan military uniforms were led by an old man in his fifties and also came out to greet Li Xin and others.
Mu Ying and others got off the horse in front of Li Xin, then walked to Li Xin, first glanced at Xie Dai and others, then clasped their fists at Li Xin, saying, "It turns out that Marquis Jing'an has come to the southwest, and it's a long way to welcome him."
The old man following him was Li Chuan, the deputy general of the Pingnan Army of the State Army of the Zhao County. He was born in the Li family. After Li Shen for more than ten years, after Jincheng was destroyed, he had been assisting Li Shuo in managing the Pingnan Army. After he came out, he didn't say much, but walked to Li Shuo, asked a few questions in a low voice, and stood behind Li Shuo without saying a word.
Li Xin smiled and said, "I haven't seen each other for a few years, why did Brother Mu have a lot of love?"
"You still have the face to say it!"
General Mu raised his head and snorted coldly: "It was you, on behalf of the Dajin court, the alliance with us, agreed to conquer Jincheng and give Hanzhou to rest and rest for the remnants of Southern Shu. Now in less than five years, the Dajin court has gone back on his word and sent troops to attack our Hanzhou Prefecture!"
"After a hard battle in Hanzhou City, our army suffered heavy casualties!"
"Now I have already decided to stop respecting your Emperor of Jin. If you want to restore it to Han, it will be useless for anyone to talk about it, and you, Marquis of Jing'an, will not be able to do it!"
Li Xin still had a smile on his face.
"Brother Mu doesn't have to be so anxious. I'll talk slowly after entering the city."
General Mu raised his head high and was extremely arrogant.
"Then let's go."
Soon, Li Xin and others entered Jianmen Pass. After passing Jianmen Pass, they arrived at Jiange County City behind Jianmen Pass. After entering the city, Xie Dai and others were placed in a large courtyard. Li Shuo followed Li Chuan and others back to the Pingnan Army garrison, while Li Xin followed Mu Ying to enter Jiange County to "negotiate".
In the Jiange County Government, Mu Ying set up a table and sat opposite Li Xin. He reached out to Li Xin to get a glass of wine and laughed: "Mr. Marquis, my acting skills are very good?"
When Chen Gang and others came to send him a message, they specifically instructed Li Xin to have people from the court, so Mu Ying performed it in front of Xie Dai and the others according to Li Xin's words, and the scene just now came into being.
Li Xin drank the water and wine in front of him and looked up at Mu Ying.
“Slightly exaggerated.”
General Mu also drank a glass of wine and grinned: "If you want me to tell me, there is no need to act for those people to show you. If you kill the matter with one knife, we don't need to be afraid of anyone in the southwest world."
Li Xin said lightly: "Those are all Yulin Guards, and some are still old friends from you and me when they were Yulin Guards. Do you go and kill them?"
After Wang Zhong retreated from the Yulin Guard, both the left and right battalions of the Yulin Guard were under the control of Xie Dai. The more than a hundred people he brought out were from the Yulin Guard's left camp, and some were old friends named by Li Xin, so of course it was not easy to kill.
Mu Ying shook her head and shook her head, "Then I won't kill you, just fool them and let them go back to the capital."
He toasted Li Xin with a glass of wine and said with a smile: "By the way, Marquis, how did you leave the capital? A few days ago, Mr. You'an and I mentioned Marquis and Mr. You'an, who said that Marquis may not be able to leave the capital in the past few years."
Li Xin put down the wine glass in his hand and said quietly: "I told the emperor that I could help him settle the matters in the southwest, so he let me out."
General Mu widened his eyes.
"I don't believe this, will that petty emperor believe it?"
Li Xin nodded.
"He believed it."
Li Xin was silent for a while and sniffed out a sip of alcohol.
"Or, he doesn't believe it, and there is no way."
Mu Ying couldn't understand the complicated relationship for a while, and he didn't make things difficult for him. He poured wine for Li Xin and himself, and said with a smile: "No matter what, it would be a good thing that the Marquis could come out, and he would never have to be angry with their Ji family again!"
"When will you take over the eldest princess and my nieces? Marquis, you settle down in the southwest and don't go back to the capital to see Ji Wen's face live!"
The real name of Emperor Taikang was that he had only called him fewer people before he ascended the throne. Since he ascended the throne, fewer people have dared to mention it. That is, on this southwest land, Mu Ying could mention this name unscrupulously.
Li Xin shook his head helplessly.
"My affairs need to be discussed for a long time. Let's discuss matters in the southwest."
He took a sip of wine and asked, "Where is Zhao Jia now?"
“In Jincheng.”
Mu Ying smiled and said, "Mr. You'an is in charge of the overall situation in Jincheng, so I'll be an errand runner and guard Jiange here."
Li Xin nodded and continued to ask: "What is the attitude of the prefectures and prefectures in the southwest towards the Hanzhou Army?"
When talking about this, Mu Ying's face was a little unfavorable.
"Most of them do not support it. They feel that even the Pingnan Army cannot control the southwest, so naturally our Hanzhou Army with tens of thousands of people will not be able to do it."
"It's a pity that we have too few troops and cannot divide our troops to various prefectures, otherwise they would be dissatisfied."
Li Xin pondered for a while and spoke slowly.
"So, we must find a way to incorporate Li Shuo's people into the Hanzhou Army."
