Cheng Wuting sent many scouts to investigate, and the Turks really retreated. They threw down tens of thousands of corpses at the foot of the Great Wall, and disappeared without a trace like a strange wind.

Even so, Cheng Wuting dared not relax or slackened, and there was no reason to celebrate any victory. His expression was more sad and angry.

The new six thousand new forces went to guard the city defense, and the eight hundred remaining soldiers under Cheng Wuting were finally able to breathe. Xue Shao brought the people from the Three-Sword Brigade to comfort them.

The recruits of the Third Brigade, who were tried to be the young boys by the veterans, had completely lost their previous youth and ignorance after experiencing a surprise attack on Shuozhou and a surprise attack on Heisha, and became the real robes in the minds of the veterans, rather than the recruits who were short of them.

Furthermore, the great victory of the Black Sha surprise attack directly led to the withdrawal of the Turks. Therefore, the veterans began to respect the people of the Third Brigade. When they looked at them, they also changed from the previous "looking down" to "looking up".

The guards of the Third Brigade clearly felt that their image in the minds of the veterans had changed. Everyone was filled with a strong sense of pride and honor, and they were honored to express the title "I am from the Three-Blade Brigade".

For a time, the Three-Blade Brigade became an extremely loud golden sign in Shuozhou City. Even the new army led by Cheng Qizhi and others was well-known for the name of the "Three-Blade Brigade", and was amazed at their deeds and worshipped them.

Everyone in the Three-Dao Travel returned from triumphantly and became the supreme and glorious hero. However, there are seventy people living here in the Three-Dao Travel, and it is unlikely that people will remember each of their names. But there is a name that everyone in Shuozhou knows very well and talks about it every day.

This person is not Xue Shao, the commander of the Three-Swords, or Xue Chuyu, who came to earth to the gods, but the female hero who is known as "I have big breasts" - General An!

In places like Shuozhou frontline and field military brigade, women are absolutely rare. Occasionally, they may be male. Yuenu is young and beautiful, and is an alternative and strange existence. If this strange flower is used to fighting and not inferior to a man, and she has made great achievements on the battlefield, she is also a straightforward and upright woman with a strong temperament - she is really unreasonable if she is not famous!

General An of the Three-Sword Brigade has become the most shining idol in Shuozhou. There are thousands of guards here, and some may not know Cheng Wuting or Xue Shao, but absolutely everyone knows Yuenu. As long as Yuenu walks into Shuozhou City, it will definitely be a collection of attention, which is so cool and cool.

Yuenu was a little uncomfortable at first and a little nervous. But later she enjoyed this feeling more and more. In the past, she was just a slave hidden in the boudoir and didn’t know what the world outside the boudoir was. Now with such an experience, she felt that she seemed to be born to belong to the army. Although this is a world belonging to men, she had such a personality and had such skills. If she didn’t make a living in the army, she would definitely live for a lifetime!

It would be great if I could stay in the army all the time in the future!—Yuenu had such a luxury in his heart.

But no matter how much I think about it, Yuenu dared not say such words to Xue Shao. Although she enjoyed the treatment of a hero for a while, she never forgot that Yuenu is Yuenu. Whether she was carrying tea and water at home or capturing and killing enemy generals in front of the two armies, Yuenu will always be the shadow of the young master.

After a little rest, Shuozhou City gradually became peaceful.

The next day, Xue Shao came to visit Cheng Wuting in private again. After entering the city yesterday, Xue Shao had heard some news about Li Xiantong, and today he was going to ask clearly.

Cheng Wuting did not hide or modify it, and told Xue Shao about Li Xiantong's words and deeds.

Xue Shao smiled, "This guy is really a ghost!"

"Li Xiantong was determined to kill the young master. Could it be that he was not surprised or angry at all?" Cheng Wu was quite surprised.

Xue Shao smiled and said, "If he doesn't do this, I'm surprised. But I didn't expect that their grandfather and grandson would attack General Cheng."

"Yes, I didn't expect it at first." Cheng Wuting's expression suddenly became dim and sighed and punched him in the thigh. "More than 10,000 brothers, only 800 will die! - If the old thief Li Chongyi had sent reinforcements a few days ago, how could I be like this, my poor brothers?"

Xue Shao nodded with his eyebrows tightly, "Li Chongyi, as the chief of the army, dared not send troops to rescue the border crisis. But when the troops were sent, it was all in his mind. Judging from the current situation, his mind was very vicious. He seemed to want General Cheng to beat him up and lose his vitality, but he would not lose the city or destroy the foundation of the country, so that he could burn himself. This old thief is really hard-working!"

"Old thief, I'm not in harmony with you!" Cheng Wuting's eyes were red and thunder sounded, and his fists slammed down. The tea table in front of him was shattered!

"General!!" The deputy general outside the door hurriedly entered in for some reason.

"Everyone is out, it's nothing for you! Let me go a little further!" Cheng Wu denounced them loudly.

The generals under their command did not know this kind of thing, because not only could they not solve any problem, they might also leave a lot of shadows and burdens in their hearts. Otherwise, one passes through ten thousand passes through a hundred, which is likely to affect the army and unity, and the loyalty of the soldiers to the court.

Just like those robes who know they are framed and will go to the city to kill the enemy without hesitation, no matter how much grievances and bitterness Cheng Wuting suffers, he will only hold it in his own stomach.

For the thirty years, Cheng Wuting has always believed that since he is a commander, he must be responsible for the life and death of his brothers under his command, and must shoulder the burdens he has put on.

"The general of evil comes, is really a very pure good general." Xue Shao exclaimed sincerely, "I should take the general of evil as an example!"

"Don't!" Cheng Wuting waved his hand and smiled bitterly, "Cheng is too stupid. He has been played with by the scholars in power for many years, killing countless brothers. In the battle of Shuozhou, the Shuofang Army died for a lifetime. I, the tens of thousands of bloody brothers, have all been buried at the foot of the Great Wall. If Old Cheng could see through the old thief's sinister intentions earlier and be smarter and better deal and prevent them earlier, why would this be like this?"

"It's already been done, so the general doesn't have to blame himself too much." Xue Shao said, "It's not too late to make up for the loss of the sheep. The general still has to look forward to avoid similar things happening again."

Hearing this, Cheng Wu woke up and woke up, "You are right. The dead are gone. I must be responsible for the living brothers and no longer let them go on the path of unjust death. I must kill him with my own hands and avenge my brothers who died! And Li Xiantong's little mistress, he is not a good thing, just kill him!"

Xue Shao smiled and said, "Yes, both of these grandparents deserve to die. But the root of all the conflicts is not actually the two of them. Have the general ever met? Where is it?"

Cheng Wuting frowned, "Old Cheng rarely returns to Chang'an every few years. He is not in the court, and he rarely knows the secrets of the government. He only vaguely knows that General Li Shangdan of the Yulin Guard was in charge of the imperial guards in the Northern Yai, which made the queen quite afraid. The two of them have the same power, but there is another emperor. Therefore, they can only turn the battle privately, to other places and borders."

"General Cheng is wise and has a very good attitude." Xue Shao said, "but he is a little biased. How can Li Shangdan dare to compete for the queen?"

"..." Cheng Wuting was slightly stunned and nodded understandingly, so there was no need to say it out loud.

Li Shangdan was just a loyal lackey raised by the emperor. Whoever the emperor asked him to bark at, he could only bark at. Then, in the final analysis, the root of the tragic death of Shuofang Army lies in the struggle between the emperor and the queen of heaven!

Some things are not very convenient for Xue Shao to tell Cheng Wuting clearly, just be clear about them. Especially for some things between the two saints, for people of this era, they are definitely "political bans" that they dare not interfere or discuss.

Xue Shao knew much more about the things between the two saints than anyone in these eras.

Over the years, Emperor Li Zhi has relied greatly on his empress in his political strategy due to his health, personality, talent and other reasons. Until now, Wu Zetian has directly represented the emperor in the reign of the dynasty.

As the emperor, Li Zhi was the only one in the world. Although he was unable to govern the country, it did not mean that he would be willing to give up his imperial power to surrender. So he carefully cultivated his queen as the spokesperson for the rule, and then he only needed to manage his queen as a person.

Over the years, Emperor Li Zhi has entrusted Empress Wu with trust and heavy trust, and tried his best to suppress her in various ways to prevent herself from being completely undermined.

Politically, the military and national affairs in the court - similar to the major events in which Pei Xingjian led a 300,000 army to the Northern Expedition, must Li Zhi come forward to make the decision.

In military terms, Queen Wu wants to get involved in the military power of the Imperial Guard? Don’t think about it! - Li Shangdan, bite her!

In terms of personnel, the prime minister's appointment power is definitely controlled by Li Zhi. Hao Chujun challenged Empress Wu in the court for so many years, and he would not retreat from the prime minister even if he was almost dead. As for other officials, Li Zhi could turn a blind eye. Of course, there is another exception: the Wu family cannot be a high-ranking official at will, and if he makes mistakes, he must be severely punished and implement double standards. Didn't Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi be stripped of the official position just now? - The queen's relatives of her mother's family want to grow and grow in the court of Li Tang, but there is no way!

As for the economy, culture, life and other aspects, Li Zhi didn't care about small matters. Once it involved major issues of principle, Li Zhi would never give in. Even Li Zhi had been manipulating the tragic deaths of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu for example. Without the acquiescence and instruction of Emperor Li Zhi, would Empress Wu dare to chop off the two former queens and one of the four concubines who lost power and soaked them into the wine jar?

So, although Empress Wu is now in power, she is still just a spokesperson for Li Zhi.

It’s like Li Zhi is the boss of a company. Even if he travels outside all year round and doesn’t return to the company, the company is still his. Wu Zetian shows up every day to manage all the big and small things in the company, and it looks like she has completely taken over the entire company. But in fact, she is just a ceo. As long as Li Zhi is still alive, the company will not be hers for a day!

Xue Shao's few words made Cheng Wuting feel a little discouraged.

"We are a martial artist, and you will die if you die, but you are seeking to protect the country and serve the country." Cheng Wuting murmured, "but you don't want to die in political struggles, in conspiracy, and in the hands of your own people!... Cheng is disappointed for more than 10,000 brothers who died in distress!"

Xue Shao also sighed lightly, I was quite disappointed, but there was nothing I could do about it. The battle between the two saints at the supreme political level will lead to the emergence of two factions on the following people, and the factions on both sides will suffer casualties due to secret struggles. This is natural.

The 10,000 Shuofang Army is just a part of the many victims.

There is only one way to eliminate such negative factors from the root - to turn the two saints into the only saints!
