Mixed martial arts: I am the best in the world

Chapter 666: They are not simple things
Xu Shiji heard something in his heart and looked at Dou Jiande quietly. It would be a lie to say that he was not moved. It would be difficult for anyone to do this. Even Li Mi couldn't do this. He put hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses on own hands.

"Isn't King Xia afraid that someone Xu will ruin King Xia's important affairs?" Xu Shiji couldn't help but ask.

"I believe that General Xu is not this kind of person. He is filial to his parents and loyal to his old master. Such a person will still frame his friends." Dou Jiande's eyes became softer.

After Li Mi's death, both he and Li Tang tried to recruit Xu Shiji to surrender, but Xu Shiji refused. He himself even wore mourning in the army and held a memorial ceremony for Li Mi, which showed the loyalty of the other party.

After hearing this, Xu Shiji straightened his face and said: "Since King Xia trusts Xu so much, Xu is willing to plan this matter for King Xia."

Since Dou Jiande trusts him so much, if he doesn't agree, it will appear that he is unkind.

"Thank you, General." Dou Jiande was overjoyed.

"I wonder what step King Xia wants the general to take?" Xu Shiji asked again: "If King Xia asks the general to defeat King Ming, then he will not be able to do this. If he just wants the general to keep these hundreds of thousands of troops, I finally think it’s okay.”

Xu Shiji is still very smart. He will never do anything that he cannot accomplish, lest he ruin his reputation.

"I don't ask for anything else, as long as I can keep hundreds of thousands of my brothers." Dou Jiande said quickly.

His requirements were not high, or he was self-aware. It would be too difficult for Xu Shiji to lead such a small number of troops to defeat King Ming. He only needed to keep the current troops and plan for the future.

"Okay, then Xu will go back and settle down before entering the camp tomorrow." Xu Shiji readily agreed, saluted Dou Jiande, and then left with a cool expression.

"Father, can you trust him?" After a while, Dou Hongxian said quietly after he left.

She didn't know why, but when she saw Xu Shiji, she always felt that this man was not trustworthy.

Dou Jiande suddenly said quietly after hearing this: "If we don't trust him, who can we trust? None of the big families in Le Shou are good. Moreover, he is the one commanding the army this time. I just made an alliance and then returned to Le Shou." Shou, he is the commander-in-chief of Daxia."

Dou Hongxian's face changed greatly after hearing this, and she looked at her father in surprise. She had already heard that Dou Jiande was actually ready to give up these troops.

"Remember, at any time, the first and most important thing is to save your own life." Dou Jiande looked at his daughter and said: "This position of King of Xia was forced on me by others. If I become King of Xia, I will die if I don't get it. Die. But I have no way out. Not to mention King Ming, even Li Shimin, I am no match for him."

"If we lose at the hands of King Ming, you and my family will still have a chance to survive. But if we lose at the hands of Li Shimin, you and I will not even have a chance to survive."

Dou Jiande looked into the distance quietly and said: "All those aristocratic families have taken refuge in Li Shimin." "Didn't he say that Li Shimin was polite and virtuous, kind and caring for the people?" Dou Hongxian was surprised.

"You and I are both untouchables. My prestige among the people is far greater than that of the Li family. How can the Li family tolerate me? And what King Ming wants to kill is a wealthy family. The common people will only follow King Ming, not me. So if I surrender, King Ming will not kill me." Dou Jiande chuckled.

"Xu Shiji?" Dou Hongxian looked at his father in surprise.This man who looks like an old farmer seems to be not simple, and he is much more thoughtful than the average person.

"He is not one of ours, he just wants to join Li Shimin." Dou Jiande turned around and left, sneering: "The so-called mourning for the old master is just for others to see, for the sake of one's own reputation. You didn't see that, even me Are you all moved by it? With such a person, no wonder Shen Luoyan left him. It's obvious that he has seen the other person's true face a long time ago. "

Dou Hongxian didn't know what to say. It seemed that everything in front of her exceeded her expectations. In fact, her loyal and honest father was full of calculations. On the surface, he loved his soldiers as much as his sons. In fact, he had abandoned him long ago. On the surface, he was a scheming father. She trusted Xu Shiji a lot, but in fact, she just treated him as a pawn. She didn't know if there was any trust in this world.

"Red line, remember, don't believe anyone in the world unless you have absolute strength." Dou Jiande stopped and said: "You are a smart man, your brother, hey, is a martial arts seedling, but Others don’t.”

Dou Jiande also has a son named Dou Yuhu. He is just an adopted son, but he treats him as his own. However, Dou Yuhu can only be a martial artist and can practice martial arts, but not other things.

"Yes, my daughter knows." Dou Hongxian nodded repeatedly. She didn't know why, but there was something bad in her heart. She always felt that Dou Jiande had a feeling of giving his last words.

"Let's go!" Dou Jiande nodded, with a trace of worry on his face.

In fact, some of the things he said to Xu Shiji were true, such as being coerced by Xiang Yutian.How can these people in the Demon Sect be so easy to talk to? If you don't have any tricks, the other party won't trust you.

It's just that these things were not told to Dou Hongxian. Otherwise, Dou Jiande would not need to personally lead the troops this time. He also has many masters under his command, such as Liu Heitai, Su Dingfang, etc., who are all famous generals.

Li Shimin soon received the news that Dou Jiande led the army and asked Liyang guard Xu Shiji to be the general of the army and command his troops. The army had crossed the Yellow River and was heading towards Hulao Pass.

"This Dou Jiande is very smart. He knows that his command ability is not good, so he asked Xu Shiji to command the army." Li Shimin instantly understood what Dou Jiande was thinking.He looked around and said: "Xu Shiji is a smart man, can't he see that Dou Jiande can't succeed? Why should he seek refuge with him?"

"Marquis Qin, I am obedient. Dou Jiande was kind to Xu Maogong." Qin Qiong hesitated for a while before saying: "The general suspects that Xu Shiji agreed to Dou Jiande probably to repay his kindness."

"Oh, there is such a thing?" Li Shimin suddenly realized, nodded and said: "My father once said that Xu Shiji was a man who valued friendship. After Li Mi died, he mourned him. Now it seems that this is really the case."

"Qin Hou, my subordinates think that Dou Jiande is making a bad move. Now that Xu Shiji is here, he cannot be allowed to leave. As long as his troops suffer heavy losses, who else can Xu Shiji turn to besides us?" ?" Changsun Wuji suddenly spoke.
