“I didn’t expect Brother Xu to know so many secret things about Master and his family, some of which even I don’t know.”

“However, Hou still agrees with what Brother Xu said.”

“Master, his celestial figure, if it hadn’t been for the blow of that incident, he would have been shattered and gone in the void.”

Hou Xibai washed himself and tidied himself up. He happened to hear Xu Ziling’s words and couldn’t help but sigh.

“Fortune plays tricks on people, and it’s useless for Brother Hou to think too much.”

Xu Ziling looked deeply at Hou Xibai and said lightly.

Hou Xibai nodded towards Xu Ziling, and then looked at Wanwan

“The chief of the Yingui Sect, the witch Wanwan who everyone in the world wants to beat?”

“Haha, when it comes to seniority, you should actually call me senior brother, but now Mr. Hou doesn’t dare to recognize me like that.”

“Brother Xu and Junior Sister Wanwan are truly a match made in heaven. I wish you my sincere blessing.”

Hou Xibai lives in the sea of flowers, and is known as the passionate young master in the world. It is not for nothing.

He knows that the relationship between Xu Ziling and Wanwan is not as simple as it seems.

Wanwan always looks at Xu Ziling with eyes that are full of emotion. Inadvertently revealing traces of affection.

I can hide it from others, but I can’t hide it from Hou Xibai.

“The senior brother is a disciple of the evil king, so naturally Wanwan is the junior sister, so there is nothing wrong with that.”

Wanwan blinked and glanced at Xu Ziling secretly like an elf.

When she found that Xu Ziling did not deny Hou Xibai’s statement, she couldn’t help but feel happy.

“Hahaha.”

When Hou Xibai saw this, he continued:

“Junior Sister Wanwan is definitely one of the most beautiful people in the world. Apart from Cihang Jingzhai, Junior Sister Fei Xuan, I am afraid there is only one person who can compare with her.”

“Um? Passionate Young Master, let’s talk about it, who else is there?”

Wanwan was proud in her heart.

She said that Shi Feixuan’s appearance was similar to hers, so she reluctantly accepted it.

But looking at the world, there are women who can compare with her, Wanwan didn’t believe it.

She didn’t dare to practice martial arts. He is the best in the world, but he is still very confident in his appearance.

“Maybe I know that the person Brother Hou is talking about is the daughter of the evil king, right?”

Xu Ziling guessed the woman Hou Xibai was talking about.

Xiao Yi, Shi Qingxuan, is definitely a beautiful and beautiful woman.、

“What Brother Xu said is true, it is my junior sister Shi, Shi Qingxuan.”

Hou Xibai admitted Xu Ziling’s guess and said solemnly.

Hearing this, Wanwan also agreed. Shi Qingxuan is famous in the world, not only for Xiao Yi, but also for her stunning beauty. Moreover, Bi Xiuxin was once the saint of Cihang Jingzhai.

, you can tell by watching the concubine Xuan of the past dynasties that the saints are all stunning in the world. Moreover, Bi Xiuxin has many admirers, and they are all famous.

Li Yuan, Song Que, and Yue Shanke all fell in love with Bi Xiuxin.

The evil king Shi Zhixuan is also one of the few beautiful men in the world. With the combination of the two, how could the daughter they gave birth to be anything but stunning?

“It is said that Brother Xu led his men to capture Jiangxia and Jiujiang counties. As a young marshal, Brother Xu must have a lot to do.”

“How come you have time to come here to look for someone?”

After the small talk, the relationship seemed to have become much closer. Hou Xibai then opened his mouth and went straight to the topic.

He knew very well that with Xu Ziling’s strength, it was impossible for him to deliberately come to compete with him. He must have another agenda.

“At present, the three counties of Poyang, Jiujiang, and Jiangxia under my command do not even have 500,000 people. They are far from as busy as Brother Hou said.”

“If it has 10 counties and a population of 2 million, then this young commander really won’t have time to make a career in the world.”

Xu Ziling tasted the tea that Hou Xibai poured himself, and then spoke lightly with some meaning.

Huh?

As soon as these words came out, Hou Xibai’s face suddenly changed.

The originally relaxed banquet suddenly became a little solid.

Hou Xibai Bai couldn’t help but look at Xu Ziling for a moment, and then continued:

“The three counties under Brother Xu’s command are considered rich and suitable for cultivating fertile land.”

“Having occupied such a territory in just half a year, it is already the best in the world.”

Xu Ziling just smiled lightly at Hou Xibai’s statement.

“Indeed, as Brother Hou said, I ordered people to actively urge the people in the three counties to reclaim farmland and grow food.”

“In order to make up for the shortcomings of the large area and insufficient population, the refugees from surrounding counties were absorbed by the commander.”

“Provide fertile land per capita, one acre per head, and provide them with free grain.”

“As long as the wasteland recorded by the government is reclaimed into fertile land, it will be recorded and passed down to future generations.”

“From all the people in the 3 counties, I only collect land taxes, business taxes, and customs duties, and do not receive taxes or servitude.”

“The field tax is charged at 10% of the total yield per mu, and can be deducted with gold and silver Tongbao”

“By this time next year, the three counties will have a population of 1 million and more than 1 million acres of fertile land.”

“Yuzhang also has 5 counties, with 70,000 households and 400,000 residents.”

“Jingling has slightly fewer households, only 60,000, but its population is almost the same as that of Yuzhang, with about 400,000.”

“Jian’an has 4 households and 200,000 residents.”

Wanwan didn’t quite understand Xu Ziling’s words.

But Hou Xibai’s eyes flashed with meaning.

“Why did Mr. Xu say this to Mr. Hou?”

Xu Ziling looked at Hou Xibai’s eyes with a searching meaning, and then said with a smile

“If the land in Jingling County is used to raise and train horses, what would Brother Hou think?”

Hou Xibai heard this and replied decisively

“Great kindness!”

Jingling is located to the east of the Han River. After years of erosion, the geographical environment is comparable to the prairie.

If you want to raise horses and train them, it is perfect.

He nodded towards Hou Xibai, Xu Ziling continued

“Pegasus Ranch has been raising and training horses for decades and is famous throughout the world.”

“If I occupy the land of Jingling to train my cavalry, it will be easy to reach the Jianghuai River in the east, march north to the Central Plains, or even point my sword at Guanzhong.”

“Over at Jingling, I have arranged for 15,000 young marshal troops to be stationed there.”

“As long as I give the order, I can capture the entire county.”

“Yang Guang is now also eyeing this commander and orders Liu Ziyi to unite 4 troops to attack my young commander’s army.”

“But only counting Poyang, I have 65,000 men under my command, armed with armor and swords.”

“If Liu Ziyi dares to come, he can be destroyed with a wave of his hand.”

“Yuzhang and other counties only have a bunch of rubbish local defenders left, which can’t stop the commander’s troops at all. Nankang is also searching for supplies.”

“Jian’an is ostensibly owned by the Shuilong Gang, but in reality it is controlled by the Song Clan.”

“Not long ago, the Heavenly Sword Song Que, on behalf of the Song clan, surrendered Jian’an to show his sincerity in forming an alliance with our young commander’s army.”

“In this way, I will have 10 counties under my command, with a population of 2 million.”

“In Brother Hou’s opinion, does this commander have the appearance of a ninety-five-year-old?”

This!!!

Hou Xibai couldn’t sit still for a moment, and was almost ejected from the seat.

Facing Xu Ziling, Hou Xibai breathed rapidly and was extremely excited.

“If Brother Xu does not get the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, God will not allow it!”

“In fact, there are ancestral precepts in the Passionate Villa, I have known this for a long time”

“I came here today because of Brother Hou.”

“I want to invite Brother Hou to join the government as a military advisor, and become my right-hand man who can conquer the world.”

“In the army, under this commander is Brother Hou.”

After Xu Ziling finished speaking, he just drank tea calmly and looked at Hou Xibai.

He didn’t believe that Hou Xibai could bear such a big temptation. After learning martial arts, he was able to join the emperor’s family.

Hou Xibai is not a mediocre person, Xu Ziling I believe he knows how to choose

“Young Marshal!!”

Sure enough, the next moment Hou Xibai spoke respectfully to Xu Ziling without hesitation and bowed in salute. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Looking at the world, as long as there is a name and a surname, who would not want to be a general? Entering an official position?

Especially since the Huajian sect is from the Guiguzi lineage, acting as a talent for the king.

If he didn’t know this, how could Xu Ziling go to the Amorous Villa to find the amorous young master Hou Xibai?

“OK OK!”

“Brother Hou has the talent of a king, and with the help of brother Hou, I am as handsome as a tiger.”[]

After receiving Hou Xibai’s firm answer and respectful response, Xu Ziling smiled and was very satisfied.

During the next banquet, Hou Xibai introduced himself as a subordinate and had a pleasant conversation with Xu Ziling about the general situation of the world.

Wanwan didn’t have a chance to interrupt from the beginning of the banquet. She just watched in stunned silence as Xu Ziling regained Hou Xibai and helped her fight for world supremacy.

Turning your hands over becomes clouds, turning over your hands becomes rain.

Just because Hou Xibai can’t beat Xu Ziling doesn’t mean that Hou Xibai isn’t strong.

As a mid-stage master, with both the Huajian sect and the Evil King inheritance, there are not many people of his generation who can beat Hou Xibai.

Even among the older generation, Hou Xibai is also among the top experts.

Such a person is willing to serve as a minister under Xu Ziling’s tent.

This made Wanwan look at Xu Ziling even brighter. He was indeed the man that Wanwan, the chief of the Yingui Sect, valued.

“Young Marshal!”

When Xu Ziling and Hou Xibai were chatting happily, the Imperial City Secretary stationed outside the door suddenly came.

“There is an emergency military report in Xingyang”

“Um?”

Xu Ziling looked at the news brought by the Imperial City Division with a serious expression.

Seeing this, Hou Xibai couldn’t help but ask

“Marshal, something happened in Xingyang?”

“almost.”

Looking at Hou Xibai, Xu Ziling said lightly

“Li Xiuning, the third lady of the Li family, arrived in Xingyang a few days ago in an attempt to unite the Wagang Army and Du Fuwei’s army.”

As early as the end of the 11th year of Daye, Li Zitong chose to surrender to Du Fuwei.

But Du Fuwei did not expect that Li Zitong pretended to surrender and counterattacked him at the critical moment, causing Du Fuwei’s army to suffer heavy losses..With no other choice, Liuhe County was chosen as the place to survive. After surviving the battle, he supported tens of thousands of troops.

Until 3 months ago, Yang Guangsan entered Jiangdu and ordered Gongsun Shangzhe to lead the Sui army to attack Du Fuwei.

Du Fuwei was defeated in this battle.

Now, in order to completely wipe out Du Fuwei’s remaining army, the Sui Dynasty sent Chen Ling to attack the city and capture the territory. Du Fuwei was defeated steadily and was on the verge of collapse.

“Young Marshal!”

“It can be said that Zhai Rang is a man with no ideas, great ambitions and few talents, and he will not choose to help Du Fuwei get through the difficulties.”

“However, the Wagang Army cannot be underestimated because its second leader, Li Mi, is extremely resourceful.”

“But in the short term, there is no need to worry about the threat from the Wagang Army. Zhai Rang and Li Mi are wary of each other. Before they are internally stable, they will not dare to provoke strong external enemies.”

“Only Li Clan can’t be understood by his subordinates”

“Li Clan and Du Fuwei had always had a close relationship. Now that they knew that the Sui Dynasty was going to deal with Du Fuwei, how could Li Clan, as a court official of the Sui Dynasty, dare to intervene in this matter?”

Although Hou Xibai is smart, the current chaos in the world is fast and urgent.

Whether he has intelligence organizations like the Imperial City Division to provide information, it is not easy to make current inferences.

To guess more, he needs enough information He didn’t understand the intelligence support, so he could only ask Xu Ziling

“You’re right about one thing.”

Looking deeply at Hou Xibai, Xu Ziling said lightly

“Sooner or later, the Wagang Army split due to Li Mi and Zhai Rang. Li Xiuning entered Xingyang on behalf of the Li family, and of course he did not want to help Du Fuwei.”

“She hopes that Wagang will intervene in Du Fuwei’s matter and subsequently affect the possibility of my young commander’s army taking control of Jianghuai.”

“It’s a pity that Li Xiuning hasn’t learned his lesson until now. He still thinks that he is a favored person who wants to plot against me?”

“Do you really think that this handsome man is one of those fools who were deceived by her illusion in the past?”

“Li Clan is plotting against Guanzhong, have you asked me?”

“I trained my cavalry in Jingling, then went to Nanyang to enter Guanzhong, and then occupied Chang’an.”

“Why should Li Clan fight with me?”

“Huh, Li Clan is a bunch of despicable people who think too much and don’t even look at how much they weigh.”

Speaking of the Li clan, Xu Ziling’s words were full of disdain and domineering confidence.

Wanwan couldn’t keep her eyes off Xu Ziling, and the young marshal and military advisor Hou Xibai was even more impressed with praise.

“The young commander has a good plan!!”

Who doesn’t know that if you occupy Guanzhong and become the king, you have the greatest chance of conquering the world.

If you can rely on the natural dangers of Hangu Pass, you will be the strongest among the princes.

And if you want to enter Guanzhong, apart from Wuguan, Hangu is the first choice.

There are counties on three sides of Hangu. , for Hedong and Hongnong.

The Li Clan has become powerful in Jinyang. If they want to seize Guanzhong, they must capture Hedong and Hongnong, and then occupy Hangu Pass, which can be a big deal.

In terms of the current territory and power of the Shaoshuai Army, it is necessary to It is difficult to enter Guanzhong via Hangu.

Logistics and supplies are a big problem.

But it is not only Hangu that can be entered into Guanzhong, Wuguan is also feasible.

Liu Bang used Wuguan to enter Guanzhong, and he won the Qin Dynasty. The world. 3.1

Although this road is not as big as Hangu, the young commander’s army can advance by sea and land.

Moreover, all the princes in the world are staring at Hangu, and attacking Hangu can easily become the target of public criticism.

But almost no one knows about Wuguan, it is hidden and There are less fights.

For the young commander’s army, taking Wuguan Pass has many advantages over taking Hangu Pass.

“Military Advisor Hou, this is the Great Sun Order”

“It is necessary to mobilize 15,000 young commanders in Jingling. They will not recognize anyone except themselves.”

“Over there in Jingling, it’s worth mentioning Pegasus Ranch and Duba Villa.”

“Don’t worry about Pegasus Ranch, Domination Villa needs attention.”

“He stationed more than 10,000 troops and was named the General Manager of Jingling.”

“You go to Jingling and don’t care about anything else. Just flatten Duba Villa and control Jingling.”

“Keep Pegasus Ranch, I have other plans”

“Also, one person can be spared from the Domination Villa, his name is Xu Xingzhi, and he can be used by the Young Marshal’s army.”

While Xu Ziling was speaking, he handed the Great Sun Order to Hou Xibai.

The Great Sun Order was fiery red. It was refined by Xu Ziling mixed with a ray of the true meaning of the Great Sun. It cannot be counterfeited.

“yes!”

Hou Xibai suddenly became excited, and took Xu Ziling’s order and acted quickly. He had just joined the Young Marshal’s Army, and he was actually qualified to command 15,000 Young Marshal’s Army to carry out the important task of capturing Jingling. In his heart, Hou Xibai was completely confidant to Xu Ziling. Touched by death

“Wanwan, you were seriously injured. If I hadn’t protected your meridians with the Sun Qi, you would have turned into withered bones in the grave.”

“Let’s recover from our injuries here.”

“Mr. Ling, I also want to go to Xingyang.”

As soon as Xu Ziling spoke, Wanwan couldn’t help it.

He glanced at Wanwan, who looked as weak as a plum blossom with rain in her eyes. Xu Ziling shook his head helplessly.
