Xiao Beiheng sat in the tent, playing with the Yanque sword, and listening to the sound of fighting from the battlefield ahead from time to time.

A general walked into the tent and saluted: "Your Majesty, General Zhao Mu fought with Xiao Zhuo's army in the north. The two sides fought equally in the first battle, and each had casualties."

Xiao Beiheng smiled and said: "Okay, as long as the general can entangle Xiao Zhuo, it will be fine when the widows take down Baixiu Mountain, it will be the time of Xiao Zhuo's downfall."

The battle situation is generally proceeding according to his vision.Zhao Mu's family is under house arrest in the capital, guarded by his confidant Lin Kui. Zhao Mu's heart is attached to his wife and children, so he can only obediently lead the army to attack the capital.At Baixiu Mountain, Qiang Lin was defeated again by his aggressive plan. There were originally [-] defenders on Baixiu Mountain, but now there are less than half of them left. It is much easier for his army to attack.

When he decided to divide his troops into two attacks, he responded to Xiao Zhuo's possible countermeasures.

With Xiao Zhuo's personality, he would never passively guard the city surrounded by Shengjing and other armies, that would be a dead end.The most likely thing Xiao Zhuo could do was to use the advantage of the terrain to consume his troops in the field. As Baixiu Mountain was the only place in the east of Shengjing where there were fewer enemies and more enemies, he guessed that Xiao Zhuo would definitely lead a heavy army to defend it himself.

He deliberately exchanged banners with Zhao Mu to choose the road of worshiping Xiushan, firstly to confuse the other party, and secondly, he hoped to fight against Xiao Zhuo, but he did not expect to meet the Xirong Army of Qianglin.

He can touch anyone, he has a strong army of 30 troops, and his brains are not comparable to those of Xiao Kai.As long as this battle is fought steadily, and the first to capture Baixiu Mountain and cut off Xiao Zhuo's retreat, the battle will be won.

The only thing he can't figure out is that the Qianglin King of the Xirong Army has fled and disappeared, but the defenders on the mountain are still attacking and defending well, and their progress is fast. His army has attacked three times, but failed to break through the opponent's camp.

He asked the general who came to report, "How is the camp of the Xirong Army?"

The general said: "Your Majesty, we are stepping up our attack. The opponent's camp was chosen very cleverly. We can't go around behind them, we can only attack from the front. The mountain road in front is narrow, and we can only send 800 people at a time, but the opponent There is already a hole in the camp..."

In short, there is no progress.

"Unexpectedly, a barbarian foreign country like Xirong has generals who are good at attacking and defending." Xiao Beiheng waved his hand with interest, "Go and find out who the other party's general who is in command of the battle is, and then report to the widow."

After giving orders, Xiao Beiheng began to eat dinner.

He is already the emperor, and even when he is marching and fighting, the meals are carefully prepared by the royal chef accompanying the army.Accompanied by Queen Su Mo, the husband and wife sat opposite each other, and the servants brought the dishes to the table.

Xiao Beiheng picked up a piece of beef, looked at Su Mo opposite, and noticed that she had lost weight.

I remember that Su Mo ate with him in the same way when he led the Northern Army to march westward.At that time, he was just the son of Prince Qi, far from the present glory.But at that time, Su Mo would bring him vegetables, force him to drink medicine, persuade him to read the books of sages, and turn his back on him when he was angry, and then he had to find a way to coax her.

Now he has finally reached the peak of power, he is the emperor, but Su Mo doesn't even have a thoughtful word.She was alone in the tent all day long, either in a daze or absent-mindedly reading a book. When eating, she lowered her head and picked up rice grains with chopsticks, sending them to her mouth one by one, as if she was taking medicine.Although the two are husband and wife, they are strangers.

Xiao Beiheng was displeased, but because there were many servants in the tent, it was inconvenient for him to have a fit, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks.

Su Mo noticed his movement, shook her body slightly, and looked up at him.Her eyes did not have the previous concern, but were full of fear, like a servant looking at her master.

"Your Majesty, you only ate half a bowl."

"The widow is ready to eat." Xiao Beiheng waved his hand irritably, signaling the servants to remove the food.

He knew why Su Mo became like this. She didn't agree with her decisive killing, and she didn't agree with it from the beginning.But he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. Didn't he become the emperor? Didn't she become the queen?In order to achieve your goals, isn't it natural to remove all obstacles?

But when he thought of what he had done before, his hands began to shake again.In order to hide his eyes and ears, he hastily lowered his sleeves and hid his trembling hands in the sleeves, but the sleeves also trembled. Fortunately, everyone in the tent dared not look directly at the emperor, and no one noticed the fear in his heart at this moment.

The general who reported the letter before entered the big tent again: "Your Majesty, although our army lost more than two thousand people, we managed to open a bigger hole in the opponent's camp..."

Xiao Beiheng knew that the attack was repulsed again, and he was not in the mood to listen to his whitewashing, so he interrupted him directly: "I ask you, who is the general on the opposite side?"

The general was relieved when he saw that Xiao Beiheng ignored the failure and said, "The general opposite is... is..."

After a long time, he still didn't dare to say it, mainly because he didn't quite believe the results reported by the spies.

"Talk." Xiao Beiheng seemingly calmly picked up the teacup and put it to his lips, blowing it, but his voice was faintly murderous.

The general felt a chill on the back of his neck, and remembered that Xiao Beiheng was not a benevolent and generous emperor like his father, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, according to the information obtained by the spies, the Xirong army on the opposite side is led by two... women from Dayan, Duke of Zhen His two granddaughters, Shen Lan and Shen Yuexi."

"What?" Xiao Beiheng's teacup rested on his lips, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes, "Shen Lan and Shen Yuexi?"

Su Mo was also surprised. She couldn't hold the teacup in her hand, spilled a lot of tea, and looked up at Xiao Beiheng in surprise.

"Your Majesty, the information is correct. The Xirong Army is indeed commanded by the two of them."

"Understood, temporarily stop attacking." Xiao Beiheng put down the teacup and looked at Su Mo.

"Momo, if the Xirong army wants to stop me from outflanking Xiao Zhuo's rear, they will definitely stick to this place. Aren't you and Shen Yuexi on good terms, now I'm giving you a chance to persuade them both to surrender."

Knowing that Shen Yuexi was paying homage to Xiushan, he immediately remembered the fire that came down to Yuangu back then.That fire was ambushed by Shen Yuexi, who almost burned him to death in the valley, and he still has lingering fears when he thinks of the scene of the fire.Although there are many troops on his side, he doesn't know what kind of moths Shen Yuexi will make. He doesn't want to lose troops here for no reason. If he can directly persuade him to surrender, it would be a good choice.

Su Mo shook her head lightly and said, "Your Majesty, my sister-in-law looks weak, but she is determined. She will never surrender."

Xiao Beiheng said: "Xiao Zhuo has no chance of winning at all. As long as I don't rush forward and be careful, what can he use to resist the 30 army. I have the virtue of living well, so I let you persuade them to surrender. If they don't know good and bad, tomorrow morning, I will die Go to battle in person and level this mountain. Tonight is the last time you and Shen Yuexi will see each other. Are you going or not?"

Su Mo seemed frightened by his words, changed her hesitation just now, got up and bowed down, "I am willing to go."

"Okay, go see Shen Yuexi right away," Xiao Beiheng closed his eyes, "You know what the empress said."

He doesn't hate Shen Yuexi like his mother does, he only hates Xiao Zhuo.Shen Yuexi is already pregnant, it would be best if she could surrender.
