    ?

    It seems that Zhu Houde also wants to fight to the end.

    "Victory City is related to our tie-in relationship between Southern Tang and Great Zhou. Victory City is very important. What the Marshal said is that Victory City cannot be lost. If you fail, you will be benevolent!"

    Huo Xin nodded and said.

    Although he is more cautious and hesitant in some matters, Huo Xin has never been vague about some matters, such as the current matter.

    Huo Xin's hesitant things are usually small things without much influence, while decisive things are big things.

    Victory City is a vital existence in terms of future strategic significance and the sense of Southern Tang's containment of the Great Zhou. They must not give up such a city to Zhou Heng.

    Once it was given to Zhou Heng, they completely lost the initiative and advantage. It was impossible for Southern Tang to contain and suppress Da Zhou at once.

    Therefore, Huo Xin proposed a showdown yesterday, and now Zhu Houde has also expressed the proposal of failure or success, and the two hit it off.

    "The marshal is right. Victory City is very important, but we don't have soldiers now."

    Pingkang also nodded, expressing that he agrees with Zhu Houde's words, but agreeing is one thing, and fighting a war is another thing, and fighting a war is not something that can be accomplished by agreeing.

    Soldiers and horses are needed to fight a war. They only have about 20,000 people who can fight now. It is probably impossible for such a force to take back Victory City from the Baizhan Army.

    This point is not that he flatters others' ambitions and destroys his own prestige.

    He just proceeded from the facts and analyzed the problem from a considerable perspective.

    "The general is right, the marshal also thought of this matter, so the marshal decided to send troops here." The military doctor continued to answer Ping Kang's doubts.

    Deploy troops?

    Ping Kangxin said that Huo Xin thought of it again.

    "But you want to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Lu'an City?" Huo Xin looked at the military doctor in front of him, with doubts on his face, and asked tentatively.

    The military doctor was stunned, he didn't expect Huo Xin to guess Zhu Houde's words.

    From the change in the military doctor's expression, Huo Xin and Ping Kang also saw what it meant. Huo Xin guessed right, Zhu Houde also wanted to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Lu'an City.

    "Am I right?"

    Huo Xin asked.

    "That's right, the marshal also wants to mobilize troops from Lu'an City." The military doctor replied.

    Huo Xin smiled, "Marshal's approach is correct. The only elite troops that can be mobilized near the Taihang Mountains are those from Lu'an City. The Lu'an Army is rare in the southern and northern regions of our country."

    Huo Xin said.

    They recognized the combat strength of the Lu'an Army. They could not be said to be top elites, but at least they were first-class soldiers. The Lu'an Army came to face the Baizhan Army that had already fought several battles, and it was unknown who would win.

    The two sides are definitely evenly divided.

    "Then how to mobilize troops and horses?"

    Ping Kang asked the military doctor how to mobilize the army now that he has decided to mobilize the army.

    The military doctor took out Zhu Houde's marshal order from his sleeve.

    "General, this is the token that the marshal asked me to give you. He told you to take the token and go to Lu'an City to mobilize the army to support us."

    The military doctor told Huo Xin that Huo Xin took the token, and it was indeed Zhu Houde's Marshal Order.

    "Yes, I will not disgrace my life."

    Huo Xin clasped his fists and said, Ping Kang looked at the marshal order in Huo Xin's hand, a little envious, and felt a little uncomfortable. Zhu Houde handed the marshal order to Huo Xin. Does this mean that Huo Xin became Zhu Houde's choice.

    If so, wouldn't it be that I myself have no chance.

    Zhu Houde seldom gave this marshal order, but now handing it over to Huo Xin, it will inevitably make people a little suspicious.

    "Wait a minute, general, the marshal has something to tell you."

    The military doctor stopped Huo Xin.

    "Please specify!"

    Huo Xin asked the military doctor to tell him what Zhu Houde said.

    "The marshal said, after you go to Lu'an City, let the army come over, and you don't have to come back when you are stationed in Lu'an City." The military doctor relayed Zhu Houde's words to Huo Xin.

    Huo Xin was taken aback, and Ping Kang was also confused, neither of them understood what Zhu Houde meant by this, and why Huo Xin was allowed to stay in Lu'an City.

    "I can't come back?"

    Huo Xin asked the military doctor in disbelief. Huo Xin felt that he must have heard it wrong. At such an important moment, at such a critical time, the army is about to fight, how can he stay out of it, how can he not come to help.

     This is somewhat unreasonable.

    "Yes." The military doctor nodded, and looked at Huo Xin seriously, "Marshal has ordered you not to return to Taihang Mountain." The military doctor repeated the matter again, completely affirming what he just said.

    "Why?"

    Huo Xin didn't understand the reason.

    "That's right, why exactly?" Ping Kang didn't understand, Huo Xin was one of them, and Huo Xin was indispensable for making suggestions.

    At this time, Zhu Houde asked Huo Xin to stay in Lu'an City. This was not cutting off his own arm, it was completely cutting off his back.

    "I don't know about this either, this is the order of the Marshal."

    The military doctor shook his head and said, he also asked Zhu Houde, but Zhu Houde didn't tell himself, in this case, he could only answer Huo Xin and Ping Kang's doubts according to Zhu Houde's words.

    "I want to ask the Marshal."

    Huo Xin felt that he had to ask Zhu Houde himself about this matter. He had to figure out the matter. Could it be that he had done something wrong and Zhu Houde was punishing himself.

    But Huo Xin didn't know what he did wrong.

    Is it because there is no problem of blocking the water source?

    "General, the marshal has just rested, you should not disturb the marshal, listen to what the marshal said, and don't let the marshal worry more."

    The military doctor stopped Huo Xin.

    Huo Xin stood at the entrance of the tent for a long while, bowed slowly and saluted, "I understand." After Huo Xin finished speaking, he turned around and left the large tent of the Chinese army.

    "I send you!"

    Ping Kang caught up with Huo Xin.

    "I'm leaving. I'll leave this place to you alone. You should worry more." Huo Xin said with some guilt. Managing an army, tens of thousands of people, is a very exhausting task.

    "Don't worry, I'm here."

    Ping Kang replied with a smile, for Zhu Houde to dismiss Huo Xin, Ping Kang felt a little happy in his heart. Although Huo Xin is a fierce general, there must be some reason for dismissing Huo Xin.  On the issue, Huo Xin did something wrong, which caused Zhu Houde to dismiss Huo Xin.

    From this point of view, I am a little closer to the Marshal than Huo Xin.

    And he stayed, if he wins Victory City, his contribution must be greater than that of Huo Xin.

    "Well, I feel relieved to have you by the Marshal's side." Huo Xin looked at Ping Kang and said, Huo Xin believed in Ping Kang's ability very much, and Ping Kang would definitely do things beautifully.

    "Don't worry." Pingkang replied again, "I really envy you. You will be carefree when you arrive in Lu'an City." Pingkang said calmly and enviously.

    After hearing Ping Kang's words, Huo Xin took out the marshal token.

    "Then do you want you to go and I stay here?" Huo Xin seemed to really want to exchange peace with Kang.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
