All the generals congratulated Ye Li in unison. They were already very respectful of this Princess Ding. Now that she had pacified the north, no one in the Mohist army dared to doubt Princess Ding's abilities.
With Ye Li's return, Mo Xiuyao was in a good mood. He dismissed everyone, leaving only Lu Jinxian and the others to discuss matters. Everyone couldn't help but ask about Ye Li's matters in the north. Ye Li did not want to dampen everyone's spirits and could only pick some important matters to talk about. Everyone sighed at Ren Qi Ning's bad luck and the Prince Ding Mansion's good luck. As expected, the heavens were on the side of the Prince Ding Mansion. On the other hand, they also sighed at Wang Fei's methods and foresight. They may be able to pacify the north, but to take down the north so easily, it could be said to be without shedding a drop of blood. There probably weren't two people present who could do it.
Hearing Ye Li finish, Mo Xiuyao thought for a moment and said, "It's enough to have Lenghuai and Leng Haoyu in Chang Qing. Later, let's have He Su come back."
Ye Li raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems that this side is a bit troublesome? There are many fierce generals in the army, and He Su has to come back. " Lu Jinxian and the others knew that He Su was one of Ye Li's people and said with a smile, "Wang Fei is right. He Su has been neglected by the King of the Northern Tribes these years. It's rare that he hasn't been dispirited, and has cultivated a few talents. Right now, the Northern Tribes has millions of soldiers, and many fierce generals. I've heard that General He's ability to lead troops is the best among the young generals. If he can come, it is a good thing. "
Marquis Nan stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Yes, Wang Fei has many capable people under her command. Right now, among the young generals, General He Su is better. Instead, it's my son who's a good-for-nothing. "After saying this, Marquis Nan glared at Fu Zhao as if he expected better from him. Fu Zhao rubbed his nose innocently. It wasn't that he didn't work hard, it was just that this world was full of evildoers.
Ye Li laughed and said, "Southern Marquis is exaggerating. Shizi is a rare talent in both pen and sword. How can He Su compare to him? " He lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "That's good too. General Lenghuai is a person of virtue and prestige, and Leng Haoyu has a flexible personality. With them overseeing Changqing, I'm sure that the areas outside of Redbud Pass will quickly return to their former prosperity. On the other hand, what kind of famous general is there in the Northern Region Barracks that even General Lü is afraid of? "
Lu Jinxian said, "In the Northern Militant Army, there is a young general called Helian Peng. He should be a junior of Helian Zhen. However, in terms of using troops, Helian Zhen was probably slightly inferior to him. Currently, the Northern Militant Army had Yelu Ye, Helian Zhen, and Helian Peng, as well as millions of elite soldiers. That's quite troublesome. " Although it was a bit troublesome, Lu Jinxian's face didn't show the slightest hint of annoyance. Instead, he was eager to fight.
"Since Yelu Hong has already returned to the Northern Militant Army, Yelu Ye is now in charge of the army. I wonder if Yelu Hong will be successful after returning to the Northern Militant Army. If everything goes well, Yelu Ye won't be able to hold on for long. "Ye Li pondered.
Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows in disdain and said, "If Yelu Hong can't even handle such a small matter, he might as well die. Since Miss Li has also returned, I also want to meet Helian Zhen. I want to see if he's still the same as before! "Speaking of Helian Zhen, Mo Xiuyao's eyes couldn't help but become a bit more vicious. It wasn't that Helian Zhen was a genius, but that the Prince Ding Mansion hadn't suffered a single defeat in over a hundred years. However, it just so happened that he had fallen into Helian Zhen's hands. Although it wasn't a battle loss, a loss was still a loss. It had to be said that the battle from over a decade ago was the most humiliating one the Prince Ding Mansion had fought in over a hundred years. It was also the battle where they suffered the most losses. How could Mo Xiuyao not remember Helian Zhen?
Not long after Mo Xiuyao remembered Helian Zhen, Helian Zhen also didn't forget Mo Xiuyao. That year, Helian Zhen was the number one general of the Northern Militant Army. He was about to defeat the Prince Ding Mansion and become the War God of the Northern Militant Army. However, Mo Xiuyao, a young man who wasn't even eighteen years old, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and burned him until he threw away his armor and fled in defeat. In that battle, the Northern Militant Army didn't invest any less soldiers than now. They were about to achieve a complete victory, but in the end, they were almost completely wiped out. Although Mo Xiuyao also paid a heavy price, the Northern Militant Army's losses were also extremely heavy.
In the Northern Tribes camp, Yelu Ye sat on the main seat, and below him sat a white-bearded old general in his fifties and a muscular young man in his late twenties, exuding a valiant aura. However, he was different from the typical Northern Militant Army soldier. His eyes were calm and sharp, rarely seen in the Northern Militant Army soldiers. These two people were the Northern Militant Army's General Helian Zhen and his adopted son Helian Peng, who had come to reinforce Yelu Ye.
Originally, before Mo Xiuyao and Helian Zhen arrived, the two armies fought a small battle every three days and a big battle every five days. When the Commander-in-Chief arrived, everyone calmed down and became more cautious in their attacks. In this half a month, neither side took the initiative to provoke the other.
"I've said it before, Ren Qining isn't good enough. We should have found Lei Zhenting as an ally from the start. "Helian Zhen said in a low voice.
Yelu Ye's expression was gloomy as he said coldly, "I really didn't expect Ren Qining to be so incompetent. He was actually forced to commit suicide by a woman in less than three months. His entire army was almost wiped out! The reason why we chose him was because of the geography, but also because Lei Zhenting is too ambitious and cunning. He is not as easy to control as Ren Qining. "
Helian Zhen said, "Then what should we do now? The Seventh Prince has made a military pledge to the king that he will not return to the Northern Militant Army until he destroys the Mohist army. Now that Princess Ding has pacified the north, soon, the Prince Ding Mansion will send more troops here. I'm afraid it's too late to join forces with Lei Zhenting now. " Now Lei Zhenting was not without worries. Mo Jingli was also eyeing him covetously in Jiangnan. In Xiling, the Emperor Of Xiling was also watching Lei Zhenting at all times, waiting for him to reveal a flaw so that he could seize power in one fell swoop. If Lei Zhenting were to fight to the death with the Prince Ding Mansion at this time, it would be hard to say who would win if both sides joined forces. But no matter who won or lost, the unlucky one would be Lei Zhenting himself.
Yelu Ye sighed and said, "Fortunately, our military strength is far greater than Mo Xiuyao's. We still have a chance of winning."
Helian Peng, who had been sitting silently at the side, raised his head and said, "Prince, you may not be right." Yelu Ye raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean?" Helian Peng said, "Although our military strength is far greater than the Mohist army's, but … Central was originally the Mohist army's territory. As long as they want to expand their army, I'm afraid they can gather millions of troops in the blink of an eye. Even if they are not as elite as the original Mohist army, they will still be somewhat useful. Moreover, in this general's opinion, Mo Xiuyao is not a person without foresight. It is impossible for him not to know that the Mohist army's military strength is far less than the other countries'. Why is it that he has not implemented his conscription at all? "
Yelu Ye could not help but frown. He stared seriously at Helian Peng and asked, "You, you mean to say that Mo Xiuyao is hiding his strength?" Helian Peng nodded and said, "That's right. This general believes that the Mohist army's military strength is definitely more than what we know. I'm afraid that Mo Xiuyao has hidden a large number of troops in places that we do not know about, waiting to deal a fatal blow to our army. Your Highness must not lower your guard. "
