The night is deep.

Huo Yixiao left the imperial city and did not return to Dafeng Street, but went to Huikangbo Mansion.

Hui Kangbo had just entered the house and sighed for a while for the inside story tonight, then he heard from the doorman that the fourth young master was here.

Xu Qize went out and led Huo Yixiao to the study.

"After my father came back," Xu Qize said, "I was feeling a little low. I asked him the reason, but he didn't answer. What was going on in the imperial study?"

Huo Yixiao replied: "Your Madam has heard me tell you something to the emperor."

Xu Qize paused, turned around, and looked serious: "Is it something I asked my father before but he always concealed?"

Huo Yixiao nodded: "Yes, why did you thank the guests at that time? You didn't fight for rehabilitation? You said all the reasons."

Xu Qize's hand pounding beside him, and subconsciously clenched it tightly.

He once told himself over and over that his father was unable to watch the Pingxi Marquis' Mansion that year because he could not save him. He really went in and was uprooted by the Shen family. In the future, one less general could lead the imperial court.

He has read "avoid the sharpness" many times in military books, and doing so does not mean "wrong".

What Xu Qize wondered was why his father was silent when the fourth son and the Ding'an Marquis' Mansion tried hard to rehabilitate the Pingxi Marquis' Mansion and had even won.

Their Xu family, after all, are generals, and are descendants of generals who fought to the world with the emperor's dynasty.

The words "greed for life and fear of death" and "unrighteousness" are more uncomfortable than stabbing them three times.

Xu Qize wanted an answer, even if a father is not glamorous, at least he is still a tenable answer.

Tonight, my father said everything in the imperial study room.

Xu Qize is calm on the surface, but his heart is very ups and downs.

Huo Yixiao saw Xu Qize's nervousness, he raised his hand and patted the other person on the shoulder, and said, "My uncle is familiar with my uncle, I'll ask about my uncle's old news."

Xu Qize heard his tone and guessed the situation.

When the fourth young master mentioned his father, he was in a normal mood, without any resentment or dissatisfaction.

This made Xu Qize a little relieved, and at the same time, he was also surprised.

The uncle of the fourth son is the relationship between the fourth son’s mother.

Does my father know the biological mother and origin of the fourth young master who everyone is thinking about?

Huo Yixiao did not explain much and entered the study.

Wellcomber invited him to take his seat and asked Xu Qize to prepare some wine.

Huo Yixiao opened the way: "Mr., did your uncle say anything else when he came back from the Western Regions that year? Just by realizing my identity, when something happened to the Marquis of Pingxi, Mr. Wang wouldn't think anything would happen."

Wellcomber coughed twice.

This family, from parents to sons, is full of questions.

I thought he could have time to do some careful care of the past and make some patches to make things look smoother and more reasonable, but the fourth young master couldn't wait and came straight away.

In comparison, my eldest son is not quick enough and has been preparing wine for so long!

If he had a wine glass in his hand, he could have some sips, so he would delay it for the time being.

Wellcomb gritted his teeth and said, "I really want to do it."

Huo Yixiao looked at Huikangbor disagree: "Then, please tell me carefully about the Battle of Yacheng."

Wellcomber sighed.

He stood up and paced back and forth until Xu Qize brought the wine, then sat down and poured a cup and drank it in one gulp.

"Why is it still warm wine?" said Wellcombburg.

Xu Qize said: "The fourth young master is used to drinking warm wine."

Wellcomber had to laugh dryly: "Warm wine is good, it's better to start winter in a while. I don't know when it will snow, so warm wine is more comfortable."

Drinking three cups in a row may make people relax, and Wellcomber is not as tense as before.

"Then I will tell the fourth son what I know." Huicomber said.

Back then, my father guarded the northern border to prevent the Tatars from invading through the war in the Western Regions. Huikangbo, who was still the prince, followed the Marquis of Pingxi to fight against Xiguan.

The war went smoothly from the beginning and gradually became stalemate.

Under the advancing of the Western Regions Alliance, they made subsequent plans.

"The fourth young master has read the military books, and someone in Xiyuan's palace must have said it," said Hui Kangbo, "Nothing is 10% possible, anything can happen.

No matter how detailed the scout is, no matter how smooth the scout is, and if you look at it, you will be surprised if you really push it forward.

Maybe it was a gust of wind, and the fire burned the camp, maybe it was a young man destined to leave his name, shooting the general with one arrow, who knows?

What we can do from beginning to end is to be meticulous and bring more people back.

The most stable thing is of course to set up positions and slowly get rid of the Western Regions coalition forces. We leaned on Xiguan to defend it for a year, and we didn’t believe that the coalition forces would not disperse.

But the court could not afford to spend a lot of troops in the Western Regions. If the Tatars saw that the Western Regions coalition had dragged our troops and attacked the northern border, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Only soldiers are on the brink of danger.”

If you attack Tooth City, your chances of winning are only half, go steal!

The generals who held the coalition forces back to rescue the Teeth City might be able to defend themselves for four days, lead, drag, and defend, and persist for five or six days!

When they attacked the royal court for thousands of miles, once the enemy did not take the bait, regardless of Yacheng or counterattacked the royal court, they were attacked from both sides and had no return, but they had to run and fight!

"I think of the worst at every step. It's a positional war, not a surprise attack," said Wellcomber. "If you have the courage to attack, you don't want to fail at all."

The surprising attacks recorded in history, the divine weapons descended from the sky, making people excited, but how many of them have not been recorded?

They died on the road to a surprise attack.

Thinking of the running attack back then, Huikangbo beat his legs: "To be honest, the fourth young master said, my legs were trembling at that time, and the horses were foaming at the same time."

Win, it's dangerous, but it wins.

"Take City should remember its first contribution," said Wellcome, "It's a pity that we're late to go back.

There was such a perfect thing in the storybook. Yacheng was guarded. We found the sweat-blooded horses raised by the people of the Western Regions in the royal court. They were strong and had enough food and drink, which could replace our tired horses and let us rush back to Yacheng day and night...

But that's not a storybook..."

Huicomber covered his face with his hands and held back his tears. After a long time, he took a deep breath: "After the army returned to the court, the court quarreled for a long time. Can Yacheng really not be saved?

The final conclusion is that I have tried my best, and I know that I have tried my best, but in my spare time I still wonder if something really happened to me back then.

It’s not just me, the Marquis of Pingxi, Zhao Xu and the brothers, they are all the same.

We obviously returned immediately after receiving a request for help from Yacheng. We came back later than when we made a plan at the beginning. However, in the message of help, General Yu said that we could persist in the city defense day, but why was it still late...

This is why man is not as good as God is."
