The Grandmaster Strategist

Wuyin, the Northern Han Dynasty Longting Feijue Qinshui flooded Anze, King Yongqi was defeated, Chuxiang Marquis Jiang Zhe was defeated and fled to the countryside, met Xuan in the wild, when Xuan was seriously ill, Zhe Nai forcibly invited him to join the Yong army camp. Shi Sheng's hand caused severe illness.

After the fall of the Northern Han Dynasty, Xuan received an imperial edict to meet Emperor Yong. The emperor promised him a generous salary and a high position. Xuan received the gold and silver and retired, so he set up a tent in Ba to teach. The famous scholar of Xuanjing has many scholars, regardless of his family status, and his teachings are endless. His disciples are all over the government and the public.

At that time, Jiang Zhe, the Marquis of Chu Township, was tired and stubborn. He would not go to court every time because of illness. Whenever Xuan came to visit, he would scold him sternly, and Zhe would bow his head without saying anything. This was very different from people at that time. Or it may be said that evil cannot defeat good.

At the beginning of Xuan Dynasty, he was a minister of Jin and was ordered by the emperor to be the governor of Taiyuan. Liu Sheng attached great importance to him. In the fourteenth year of Zhenyuan, Yong accepted the Zen of Jin. Liu Sheng also established himself as the ruler of the country. Xuan sighed and said: "The country has collapsed and there is no world." Loyal minister, I cannot change my duties and serve the princes." He quietly returned to his hometown. Later, Dayong conquered the world and recruited him with wealth and honor, but Xuan finally accepted it. Although gifts of gold and silver continued to Dao, Xuan used them to help poor people study. After his death, he only gave him a third income, a collection of thousands of books, and the family had no money left. Everyone sighs when he has no money.

Xuan was famous all over the world for being a great scholar of Confucian classics, but his affairs in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were the same, and he would not care about the two kings until his death, so he passed them down in this book.

——"Book of Eastern Jin Dynasty"

After sending Duan Lingxiao and Ling Duan away, I immediately organized my group and set off on the road. I couldn't stay in dangerous places for long. Who knows if Duan Lingxiao would send other masters to intercept and kill them. Besides, I had already returned with a full load, bringing back Ji Xuan and Zhao Liang. Duan Lingxiao returned in vain, but he didn't leave behind any deep grudge that could never be settled. If he didn't leave now, he would wait until later. Ji Xuan was frightened and ill, so he couldn't ride a horse. I used special medicine to make him fall asleep, and then used the only dilapidated carriage left in the village to drive Ji Xuan, with Zhao Liang accompanying him. , and rushed to King Qi’s camp like this.

I saw the Chinese army's camp with banners densely covered from a distance, and I felt relieved. Before I reached the camp gate, I saw the camp gate opened wide, and soldiers and horses poured out like a tide. Then I saw King Qi wearing a fiery battle robe. As I rode out, I felt warm in my heart. No matter how arrogant and arrogant King Qi was, he always treated me well. Even now when I think of how he always teased me intentionally or unintentionally when I was in Nanchu, I also feel that It's more interesting than annoying. For such a strong-willed man, I will never let anyone wrongly frame him.

King Qi rode over, and I rode forward slowly. Xiao Shunzi had already dismounted to avoid him. Anyway, as long as I didn't gallop, I wouldn't fall. The two horses were within a few feet of each other. King Qi stopped his horse and looked at me intently for a long time before laughing and saying, "Okay, okay, it seems you ran very fast. You were not injured or suffered any hardship."

I almost rolled my eyes, was it a compliment or a sarcasm to say that I ran fast? I said angrily: "That's because of the prince. If I fight with the prince for a few more years, I'm afraid I will become the best at escaping." Supervise the army."

The generals who followed looked at each other in astonishment. Although the King of Qi and the Marquis of Chuxiang always liked to joke around, they were still polite on big occasions. Unexpectedly, they would start laughing and joking outside the camp gate. Fortunately, after the new defeat, they were already a little bit nervous. The worried soldiers couldn't help but worry about whether the court would punish them. Seeing the two men joking like this, they felt more relaxed.

From the corner of his eye, Li Xian saw that all the generals were relieved, and felt happy in his heart. These days, he was worried about his defeat, and secondly, he was worried about Jiang Zhe's safety, which made him feel depressed. As a result, the atmosphere in the army was also tense. Today, he welcomed Jiang Zhe Zhe took the opportunity to deliberately make a few jokes, and it really worked, and the atmosphere in the army changed drastically. Seeing that his goal was achieved, he didn't waste much time. He pulled Jiang Zhe's cloak from the carriage and said, "Okay, let's go into the big tent to discuss things. How about it? Is it safe on the road? What's gained?"

Jiang Zhe asked him to send Su Qing back alone. Li Xian also knew that Jiang Zhe must have wanted to attract assassins who wanted to assassinate him. Now that Jiang Zhe had returned safely, he naturally wanted to ask how many assassins he had captured. If the harvest was not small, Jiang Zhe could publicize it in public. Coming out can be regarded as a morale booster.

Although I understand his intention,

But you can't say that I let Duan Lingxiao and Ling Duan go, so I just said lightly: "Although there are a few assassins, they are not important people. Is it possible that I brought back the heads?"

While we were talking, the two of us had already galloped into the camp gate, dismounted and went straight into the tent. Xiao Shunzi took the guards to arrange accommodation, not to mention Ji Xuan and Zhao Liang. Hu Yanshou and Su Qing both had general positions, and followed. The generals then entered the big tent, and the first real military meeting after Anze's defeat began.

Although they had just experienced a big defeat, the generals could not help but feel a little depressed, but after all, northern Xinjiang had been fighting for many years, and victory or defeat was a common thing for military strategists. This time, the main force was not hurt, so the generals were calm. Although I am not a member of the military, I do understand the mentality of the generals. Although I am also heartbroken by the generals' attitude of not being arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat, but thinking that this is the result of Long Tingfei's continuous attacks over the past few years, He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

Li Xian smiled and said: "Although our army was defeated in Anze, the Northern Han army was not without losses. At least the city of Anze was destroyed, and Duan Wudi's troops also suffered a lot of damage, including homeless refugees. There are tens of thousands of people. Although the Northern Han army evacuated all the refugees to Qinyuan and the mountains were clear, but with so many refugees, the food and grass of the Northern Han Dynasty will be consumed very quickly, which may not be very beneficial to them. Although our army Defeated, but the main force is still there. I have sent a letter asking for help. It only takes a month for the naval reinforcements to arrive. By then, our food routes will be stable and we can fight the enemy. Now the enemy has withdrawn When we arrive at Qinyuan, where the main force of the Northern Han Dynasty is located, I have decided to fight Long Tingfei in Qinyuan, what do the generals think?"

All the generals also knew that the Northern Han Army had withdrawn to Qinyuan. If they did not attack, would it be possible to stay here? Naturally, there was no objection. However, Xuan Song was worried in his heart. He stood up and said: "Marshal, the so-called three armies have not moved, and the food and grass are still there." First, although there are naval reinforcements, the distant water cannot quench the thirst of the nearby. Although Anze and Qinyuan are less than a hundred miles away, they are in dangerous mountains. The mountain roads along the way are rugged. Transporting grain and grass by land consumes a lot of money. Now the army has grain and grass. Although it can be used for half a month, I am afraid that the follow-up food and grass will not be replenished in time. What if the main force is temporarily stationed in Anze, and one or two generals are sent to repair the road, block the Northern Han army's southward path, and wait until reinforcements arrive before launching a large-scale attack. What does the marshal think?"

After hearing this, Li Xian knew that what Xuan Song said was the right way to march, but he couldn't do it now. Just as he was thinking about how to word it, I said leisurely: "General Xuan said it is true, but our army and General Jing agreed to meet in Qin." Yuan, although I don’t know how the battle is going now, with the speed of General Jing’s troops, I am afraid that the troops will reach Qinyuan within ten days. If my army is not available by then, we will not be able to attack from both front and rear. If Long Tingfei is flying Defeat General Jing first, then this battle will be really long-lasting. Although there are some difficulties with food and grass now, it can still barely last twenty days. As for the food route, Zhe is willing to personally take charge of it, so that the army will not be without food. .”

Xuan Song heard this and felt that it made sense. Although he was still a little uneasy, the commander and the supervisor agreed in unison. He was a general promoted and reused by Jiang Zhe. Without a clear reason, it was naturally difficult to object. In this way, he decided on the strategy of the army going north today. . For some reason, Xuan Song secretly looked at Jiang Zhe's lazy smile, and he had a clear understanding in his heart. There seemed to be some conspiracy unfolding, but he was not qualified to know it.

After sending the generals away, Li Xian frowned and said: "Suiyun, I have sent a request for help as you asked. I should be able to get to the emperor in the next two days. However, our army has only suffered a small defeat. Why do you want me to report it to you?" What about claiming a great defeat and asking for food, salary and reinforcements?"

I smiled slightly. It’s better not to tell Li Xian about this reason for the time being. Spreading false news will naturally lead the snake out of the hole, but Li Xian still doesn’t need to know. This is also the emperor’s intention. We don’t want Li Xian to be distracted. Besides, this kind of brother It's enough to participate in the wall reading thing once. I don't think King Qi wants to participate in it a second time. So he just said lightly: "This is what the emperor means. Some people in the court are unstable now. If the military situation changes, these people will definitely make trouble. Rather than letting them ruin our major events at a critical moment, it is better to let them show their signs earlier, so Since we are destined to be defeated in several battles this time, wouldn't it be just right to take the opportunity to hand over the emergency report? Even if they have great ears and eyes, they will be deceived."

Li Xian's heart trembled. The government was unstable. How could it be like this? How could it be that the second emperor brother could not stabilize the country with his methods? Who else dared to make waves in the government? The Qin and Cheng families were loyal. After thinking about it, unless It was him who rebelled. He didn't take Li Kang seriously in his heart. With Dongchuan's few troops, and Li Kang's power in the army was far less than that of Li Zhi and himself, even many of their generals were superior to Li Kang. After much deliberation, Li Xian still couldn't figure out the reason. Although he knew that the emperor and Jiang Zhe had several secret communications, he just thought that the emperor's brother was worried about him, so Jiang Zhe secretly reported the military affairs. Since he believed that Jiang Zhe would not harm him casually, Li Xian just pretended not to know. He was too lazy to pay attention to the affairs in the DPRK. Only a few important officials knew about the instability in Dongchuan, so Li Xian could not imagine that there was anything going on in the DPRK. What a change.

I could see the doubts in his heart and said with a smile: "It's not a big storm, it's just the remnants of King Lu and Fengyi. Some people took the opportunity to attack His Highness, so the Emperor doesn't want Your Highness to know, so as to avoid His Highness's suspicion."

Li Xian felt relieved after hearing this. Anyway, these rumors had never stopped since he came to Zezhou to command the army. Since Jiang Zhe said this, he felt relieved and just said bitterly: "It doesn't matter whether the emperor believes it or not, as long as As long as it doesn't prevent me from attacking the Northern Han Dynasty, when I capture Jinyang, my brother can remove me from my post or convict me."

I secretly smiled bitterly. The rift between Li Xian and the Emperor still persists, but I can't help with this. Now it's not easy to restore Li Xian's former anger, but I can't help but answer. I have some complaints in my heart. I deliberately said sarcastically: "Zhe thought I was the only one who couldn't see the feat of conquering Nanchu. Didn't you think that His Highness didn't want to send his army to conquer Nanchu?"

Li Xian was stunned and said hurriedly: "What, you said the Southern Expedition, does it mean that the emperor already has this intention?"

I said strangely: "What's the point? After the Northern Han Dynasty is over, won't we need to march south? The emperor's ambition is to unify the world, how can he let Jiangnan sleep soundly beside his bed?"

Li Xian suddenly realized and said discouragedly: "I see, Zhengnan doesn't know if Brother Huang will send me there, but it may not be hopeless then. At least I can lead a cavalry to attack Xiangyang. After all, I have already attacked it twice." Now, as for the main force of the Southern Expedition, Pei Yun has higher hopes. After all, he has been defending the Yangtze River in the past few years. Also, if Donghai surrenders, Haitao also has hope, but Suiyun, why don't you go? I'm afraid the emperor will not I will abandon such a great talent like you."

A hint of helplessness flashed in my eyes, and I said: "If the northern border is leveled, Dayong's foundation has been consolidated, and the destruction of Chu is just a matter of time. Zhejiu has no interest in worldly affairs. If the emperor is merciful and lets me return to the mountain, I will return to the East China Sea. If the emperor is If you don't want to let me go, Chang'an is also a good place to live. Zhe has betrayed an old friend by carrying Chu to Yong. If he leads his army to attack Chu again, I'm afraid he will not be able to return home in the future."

Li Xian couldn't help but secretly cursed himself for being confused. He couldn't understand such a thing, and said quickly: "If you don't go, I won't go. Nanchu is weak, and you still need to take action there."

Nan Chu is weak, I sneered slightly. The results of the peace talks were reported a few days ago. Dayong has agreed that Nan Chu will no longer pay compensation. With the prosperity of Jiangnan, it only takes a few years to recover. If the king of Nan Chu is not dark and his ministers are dark, Dayong will also It may not be possible to defeat Nan Chu easily, not to mention that Lu Can is still here. Even I have suffered from him. This child is not easy to deal with.

Li Xianjue came out of the tent and the atmosphere was dull. He changed the subject and said: "Sui Yun, you have asked yourself to supervise the transportation of grain and grass this time, but you must be careful. If the grain and grass cannot keep up, I am afraid that even though you are the supervisor of the army, you will be exempted from death and will not be able to escape." .”

I thought in my heart that if I didn't have enough food and grass, I would have to live with the consequences. If I arrived in Qinyuan, I was afraid that when I was defeated, I wouldn't be able to run away even if I wanted to. It would be better to hide behind me, but I didn't dare to say this. Although King Qi also thinks that our army still needs to be defeated, in his heart, he still hopes to defeat the Northern Han army in an honest and fair manner. If I say this, I am afraid that he will be angry. In fact, I am also very curious whether Long Tingfei I will do what I want. The victory of our army is between 50 and 50, but it is better to lose, otherwise the enemy will slowly retreat and fight us in bloody battles city by city. I am afraid that our army has not yet After attacking Jinyang, Li Kang has already suppressed Chang'an. Maybe Nanchu will take the opportunity to go north, so if Long Tingfei really has to retreat from Qinyuan, I will have to re-plan the strategy.

After staying in the tent for a long time, I felt a little bored. Thinking that my military tent should have been set up, I said goodbye to King Qi and walked out of the tent. Looking at the dim sky, I guessed in my heart that the seal The urgent military intelligence report has arrived in Chang'an, but it has already caused a storm in the sky.

"How can I feel so sad when I sleep alone on the pillow? The lonely moon shines brightly through the window. It's late at night, the clouds are dark and my heart is heavy. I sit up and down in loneliness, wearing my clothes and counting the cold stars.

When dawn comes, all thoughts turn to ashes, leaving only shadows of loneliness. The clear tears drip down the sycamore trees, and the sound is heard, which breaks the heart. "

In the Zhaotai Pavilion of the deep palace of Chang'an, a beautiful woman in palace attire caressed the silver zither and sang in a low voice this sad and sad poppy song. Although she was well-dressed and well-fed, surrounded by pearls and jade, she was lonely and helpless. Alone in the palace, the woman burst into tears not long after singing. The beautiful maid standing next to the incense burner quickly handed over a silk scarf. The woman wiped away her tears with the silk scarf and said, "Chan'er, if I hadn't been far away from my homeland, how wonderful would it be to come to this place where the sun never shines?"

When the maid heard her master's complaint, she quickly turned around and walked out the door. Seeing that the other maids were far away, she came back and whispered: "Your Majesty, don't say too much. If someone hears it and spreads it out, she will get angry at the scene. I'm afraid I can't afford the punishment, but as long as it lasts a few months and the emperor forgets about the incident, I will definitely be able to make a comeback with my beauty and talent."

When the woman heard this, she shed tears again and said: "I think I am also the daughter of a noble family. If the Kingdom of Shu had not been destroyed, I would not be so humble even if I entered the palace. But now that I was sent to the Great Yong Inner Palace by my father, she is I suffered this humiliation. The emperor treated me well at first, and granted me the honorary title as soon as I entered the palace. Although it was for my father's sake, it was still very favoring. But since Sima Ai was killed with a stick, the emperor became angry with us. The concubines brought in by the Dongchuan family have become increasingly alienated from me. The concubine was sick a few days ago and was unable to go to the queen to pay her respects. I don’t know who instigated it. The emperor issued an edict to blame me for neglecting etiquette and deposed me as a concubine. This was originally The unfounded accusation, I thought, would be worth it if I could dispel the emperor's anger. However, I couldn't see the emperor's face for several months after that. Even if there was a banquet in the palace, I was not allowed to go. Now. This Zhaotai Pavilion is cold and desolate, no worse than the Leng Palace. No matter how miserable I am in these desolate days, I would rather go to the Leng Palace so that I can go back to my hometown to see my parents on the day of amnesty."

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the palace maid Chan'er, but she persuaded her: "Don't worry, the queen. The day before yesterday, the queen went to greet the queen. Didn't the queen hint to the queen that she had already remonstrated with the emperor, saying that the emperor was doing it for Sima? It's unfair to anger the empress about this matter, maybe the emperor will change his mind in the next few days?"

The beautiful woman just sighed in a low voice. She came from a noble family and was used to all kinds of competition for favor. How could she believe that the queen would stand up for her. The master and the servant talked for a while and cried for a while. At the moment when their hearts were broken, the chamberlain serving Zhaotai Pavilion rushed in happily, knelt down outside the door and said: "The empress is very happy. The emperor has a decree to stay at Zhaotai Pavilion tonight. Eunuch Song has come to deliver the message, asking the empress to be ready to pick him up."

The woman was overjoyed, stood up, her delicate body was shaking, and asked in a low voice: "Chan'er, did I hear you correctly?"

With a look of joy on her face, the maid bowed down and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. I have already said that Your Majesty is a wise Lord and will not offend Your Majesty."

The woman quickly said: "Chan'er, hurry up and accompany me to receive the order." After saying that, she took the silk handkerchief that the palace maid had just washed with water, wiped the tears on her face carelessly, and hurried out to receive the order. In the main hall of Zhaotai Pavilion, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old eunuch in blue clothes was standing solemnly. He was Song Wan, the emperor's personal attendant. This Song Wan is actually not very old, only 17 or 18 years old. His appearance is dignified and simple, and he has an honest and courteous appearance. But as long as you think of him, in less than two years after Li Zhi ascended the throne, he went from a person who had never seen Long Yan at all. As the eunuch Sasao became a celebrity around the emperor, we knew that this person was by no means simple. What was even more rare was that Song Wan had a calm and dignified temperament. Although he was no longer favored by the emperor and was no longer favored by the chief eunuch Chang En, he was cautious and careful. He never offends others easily, so he is very popular in the palace.

When Song Wan saw Huang Chongnai coming out, he respectfully conveyed the order and was about to leave, turning a blind eye to Huang Chongnai's still somewhat messy makeup. Although Huang Chongnai was very happy, she did not dare to lose her etiquette. After receiving the order, she personally sent him out. While sending him away, she took a piece of flawless jade from her waist and stuffed it in her mouth. I am grateful for the edict, but since there is nothing good, I will give this piece of jade pendant to my father-in-law to enjoy in his spare time." Song Wan took the jade pendant with a sincere smile on her face, and Huang Chong'ai stopped with satisfaction. But the palace maid Chan'er could see clearly from the side. Song Wan's eyes were clear and not greedy at all. She knew that Song Wan had a very high vision, and he did not attach too much importance to the empress's jade pendant. However, she knew that Song Wan was close to On the emperor's side, there are countless people who want to please him. The empress does not expect to be able to bribe this person. As long as he does not interfere, she will be satisfied.

That night, Li Zhi was indeed lucky enough to visit Zhaotai Pavilion. The concubine's name was Huang Li, and she was the noble daughter of the Huang family in Dongchuan. The Sima family was the most prominent family in Dongchuan. The only person ranked below the Sima family was the Huang family, so After Huang Li entered the palace, she was granted the title of Chongyi. She was not as good looking as Sima Aimai, but she was good at playing the zither, versed in poetry, and had a gentle temperament, so she was not favored by Sima Aimai. Unexpectedly, there was a big change, and Sima Aimai First he was banned from the cold palace, and then he was killed by the eldest princess Changle of Ning Kingdom. Huang Li was also angered by the emperor. Not only was his rank lowered, but he was not summoned for several months. Although she has a gentle temperament, she still has the temper of an aristocratic woman, and she can't help but feel resentment in her heart. Unexpectedly, the queen actually accepted the advice, but was summoned by the emperor in just two days. Huang Li couldn't help but be happy. He was cautious all night, fearing that he would not be considerate and please. Li Zhi seemed to feel guilty and was doubly gentle. After the storm, Huang Li After waiting for Li Zhi to take a bath in the soup, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.

At the fourth watch, Song Wan, who was on duty outside, suddenly walked into the palace in a hurry, walked to the bed and called in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Li Zhi woke up from his dream, sat up and said, "What happened? I asked you to wake me up now."

Song Wan whispered: "The Emperor has ordered that if there is an emergency military report in Northern Xinjiang, it must be reported immediately at any time. Just now, the Sixth Prince sent an urgent report from 800 miles away. Our army was defeated in Anze."

Li Zhi broke into a cold sweat when he heard this. He quickly got out of bed, put on his robe, took the military report handed over by Song Wan, walked to the silver lamp and read it carefully. The more he looked at it, the heavier his expression became. After a long time he said : "We have been defeated. Now we can only make up for it. We immediately summon Qin Yi, Zheng Xia, and Shi Yu to the Wenhua Hall to discuss matters." After saying that, Song Wan hurriedly put on his dragon robe and was about to step out of the room. Li Zhi suddenly remembered something and turned around to look at the hanging brocade tent. He looked a little uneasy and said regretfully: "Oh, I was so panicked that I forgot that this is not Qianqing Palace." After saying that, he turned back to the bed and called in a low voice: "My beloved concubine, my beloved concubine." After a few calls, he saw that Huang Li was still asleep, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Next time something happens, if a concubine is sleeping with you, remember to remind me, especially Huang Chong'ai is from Shu." At this point, The voice was a little cold, Song Wan quickly apologized in panic, and the two walked out quietly.

When Li Zhi's figure disappeared outside the door, Huang Li opened her eyes. Her forehead was covered with cold sweat. She had already woken up when Song Wan came in. But when she heard about the military incident, she was smart and pretended to be asleep. Fortunately, she pretended to be asleep. If so, otherwise Li Zhi would immediately put her under house arrest, and she might even be thrown into the cold palace. Huang Li couldn't help but cry secretly at the thought of Jun's kindness being as thin as paper. At this time, the palace maid Chan'er came in. Chan'er was the maid she brought when she entered the palace. She had always been loyal, so Huang Chongnai didn't hide anything from her. She called her over and told her the story, and said with tears: "Chan'er, The emperor is so suspicious, what should I do?" The maid politely tried to persuade her: "Your Majesty, as time goes by, as long as the emperor knows your thoughts, he will not be suspicious of your Majesty." Huang Li still kept crying until daybreak. Fall asleep. As soon as she fell asleep, the cicada's eyes showed a cold and stern look. Taking advantage of the confusion of the palace maids and chambermaids, she walked directly to the imperial dining room, pretending that Huang Chong'ai wanted to eat some dishes from her hometown, and explained to the dining room , then went back to Zhaotai Pavilion. No one noticed, and she gave an old eunuch in the dining room a roll of paper.

In the next few days, the defeat at the front was covered up tightly by Li Zhi and his ministers, almost watertight. There was no news in Chang'an City. It was just that Li Zhi secretly deployed troops and generals, which was seen by some interested people. At the same time, through unknown secret channels, news of Anze's defeat had reached the ears of Prince Qing of Dongchuan. Li Kang was anxiously waiting for the opportunity. He couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the intelligence about the defeat in Northern Xinjiang. However, he was cautious and did not send troops immediately. After all, according to the intelligence he collected from many sources, the defeat was not a serious injury. However, he took the opportunity to test the loyalty and ability of the Jinxiu Alliance and asked the Jinxiu Alliance to investigate the details of this defeat. A few days later, King Qing was very satisfied with the information submitted by the Jinxiu Alliance. Not only did it clearly explain the events leading up to the defeat, but it also found out some details that even Li Kang did not know. Huo Yi explained that the information was summarized by the Jinxiu Alliance through the clues detected by spies in Chang'an. After all, King Qi's army had isolated Northern Xinjiang very tightly, and it was impossible to sneak in to investigate the military situation. Li Kang also obtained a detailed piece of information from the Demon Sect of the Northern Han Dynasty. Comparing the two, I am afraid that no one in the world knows the details of Anze's defeat better than him. Li Kang even confirmed the Jinxiu Alliance's ability and loyalty, and gradually handed over important powers to the Jinxiu Alliance. After all, the Jinxiu Alliance had absolute advantages and capabilities in detecting intelligence.
