Lishan’s mother’s disciple, Taoist Master Jin Yan, changed his expression slightly when he heard it, and his eyes flashed as Fan Lihua’s slightly narrowed eyes.

"Rebellion? You and others are enemies of the court, right?" Fan Lihua sneered at Zen Master Fei Bo's words.

"You!" Zen Master Feibo was so choked by Fan Lihua's words that he couldn't speak.

Fan Lihua had no intention of talking to him and said directly: "I am here to meet Marshal Su, please report it!"

"See Marshal Su? Are you seeing Marshal Su whenever you want?" Zen Master Feibo sneered disdainfully: "You have trespassed in the military camp and will not cure your sins. I think you should get out quickly!"

As soon as Zen Master Feibo finished speaking, Taoist Master Jin Yan on the side waved his hand with a smile and said, "Hey! Zen Master, the visitor is a guest. Even if you don't look at her face, because of the face of her teacher Lishan's mother, and her father is a general of Xiliang, it's not easy for us to neglect it!"

"Huh?" Zen Master Fei Bo frowned and looked at Taoist Master Jin Yan. Although he was dissatisfied, he did not refute anything. After all, Taoist Master Jin Yan saved him just now, and his cultivation level was high, so he was not easy to offend him.

Taoist Master Jin Yan bowed to Fan Lihua politely and said, "Miss Fan, wait a moment, I will let you report to Marshal Su. However, if Marshal Su doesn't see you, I don't know."

"Thank you!" Fan Lihua looked at Taoist Master Jin Yan, but her eyes flashed lightly and nodded calmly.

Soon, Taoist Master Jin Yan, whose expression was slightly moved, smiled at Fan Lihua and said, "Master Su has agreed to see you. Miss Fan, please follow me!"

As he said that, Taoist Master Jin Yan took the lead and took Fan Lihua to Su Baotong's handsome tent.

"Hmph!" Zen Master Fei Bo, who looked unhappy, followed him.

In Su Baotong's handsome tent, the iron Taoist sat cross-legged on one side with expressionless face, narrowing his eyes lightly.

On the main position, Su Baotong, who was wearing a black robe and without armor, was pressing his hands on the head desk, leaning slightly towards the eyes and looking like a knife, looking down at the powerful Xiliang general kneeling on the ground, trembling, and a layer of fine cold sweat appeared on his forehead: "I have been attacking for so long. So many people have died, but they have not captured Suoyang City. Do you still have the face to see me?"

"Marcenary! The last general is incompetent! The last general is incompetent! The marshal will spare your life!" The powerful Xiliang general spoke in a trembling voice.

Su Baotong, who turned his head slightly and closed his eyes slightly, turned his eyes open again, and couldn't help but shouted coldly with a vicious look on his face: "Get out! Get out!"

"Yes, yes..." The strong general of Xiliang responded quickly when he heard this, and rolled and crawled out of the coach's tent.

Seeing him leaving the handsome tent, Su Baotong was so angry that his chest was undulating and gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Bad!"

"Hmm?" Su Baotong, who turned his expression, couldn't help but look surprised.

Su Baotong opened her eyes lightly, and a shiny light flashed in her eyes: "What a sharp thunder and fire attack! Marshal, who is the person coming? Do you know? Are they friends or enemies?"

"The daughter of Fan Hong, general of Hanjiang Pass, and Fan Lihua, the disciple of Lishan's mother!" Su Baotong spoke slowly.

The Tieban Taoist couldn't help but wonder: "Fan Lihua? What are she here to do? Could it be that she is here to help the marshal?"

"Help me? Lishan's mother doesn't interfere in secular things. I'm afraid it's not!" Su Baotong pondered and shook her head, and a playful curve curled up at the corner of her mouth: "I'm a little curious. What was she coming for?"

The Tieban Taoist said repeatedly: "It is mostly for this battle in Suoyang City. It is either to help us or to be an enemy of us. The marshal. If she is really an enemy of us, she should not be ruthless!"

"I understand!" Su Baotong frowned slightly: "I also want to see if Fan Hong's daughter is stingy!"

The Tieban Taoist said confidently: "She followed Lishan's mother since childhood. She was bewitched by Lishan's mother and believed that Li Tang was the destiny of heaven, and most of them were in the same mind as Li Tang."

"Hmph! I'll know later!" Su Baotong narrowed her eyes.

As the two talked, there were footsteps. Fan Lihua, Taoist Master Jin Yan and Zen Master Fei Bo entered the handsome tent together.

"Master Su!" Fan Lihua bowed slightly to Su Baotong, neither humble nor arrogant.

Seeing Fan Lihua, Su Baotong, whose eyes lit up and down, couldn't help but look at her up and down, and said with a smile: "The daughter of General Fan Hong of Hanjiang Pass is indeed a heroic figure. I have an old friendship with your father. Miss Fan. Don't be out of here, come, please sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Marshal Su!" Fan Lihua did not be polite with Su Bao, and walked directly to the first person to sit cross-legged.

Zen Master Feibo and Taoist Master Jin Yan also sat cross-legged under the Tieban Taoist and Fan Lihua. Zen Master Feibo's face was not very good-looking, but Taoist Master Jin Yan's expression was much calmer. He also had a faint smile on his face and looked kind.

"Miss Fan, please use tea!" Su Baotong, who waited for the personal soldiers to serve the tea and politely invited Fan Lihua to have tea, asked with a smile: "I don't know what happened to Miss Fan when she came to see me?"

Fan Lihua tasted the tea lightly and said hurriedly: "Master Su, this time Lihua came, it was actually because she was ordered by her master."

"Oh? I wonder what advice does Senior Lishan Mother have?" Su Baotong raised her eyebrows, seemed to be interested, and asked with a smile on her eyes: "My teacher Li Daofu, she is also an old friend with Senior Lishan Mother."

Fan Lihua said directly: "The family teacher means to persuade Marshal Su to avoid fighting and withdraw troops from Suoyang City to avoid the sword and war, and both sides will suffer heavy casualties and life will be ruined."

"The senior mother of Lishan is a paradise. She could not have thought that she would care so much about the world," Su Baotong, who had a faint smile on her face, then said helplessly: "Miss Fan, these two countries are in war, each of them is their own masters. I am loved by the King and named the Grand Marshal of the Western Liang Army. The King has a destiny, and this commander can only fight for Xiliang with all my heart. Without the King's order, please forgive me for not being able to withdraw my troops."

Without waiting for Fan Lihua to say more, Su Baotong continued: "Besides, the two armies in front and behind the Tang Dynasty entered our Xiliang to destroy our Xiliang, kill our soldiers and generals, and harm our people. It is really a deceptive thing. Now, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is trapped in Suoyang City by me. As long as Suoyang City is broken, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will fall into my hands, and then..."

"At that time, the court will definitely not hesitate to conquer the country's troops and will destroy Xiliang to save face!" Fan Lihua said in an interview, her tone a little cold.

Su Baotong glanced at Fan Lihua with a cold face and couldn't help but smile: "Miss Fan, you seem to have no confidence in this battle? Yes, the Tang Dynasty is powerful. But I, Xiliang, are not allowed to knead me. The Tang Dynasty attacked me, Xiliang, do you want me not to resist and let them bully the weak?"

"Marson Su will really turn black and white!" Fan Lihua couldn't help but shake her head and sneer: "If Marshal Su hadn't provoked the war, how could the Tang Dynasty send troops to attack Xiliang? Xiliang was originally a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. He received the favor of the emperor in the world. Now Marshal Su's actions have caught the war between the people of Xiliang and the fire. How can he bear it?"

Su Baotong shook his head and pretended to be confused: "Oh! Miss Fan, you really misunderstood me. It was not because of my general's war that the Tang Dynasty had caused trouble on the border first and made the matter big. I just fought back a little, and the Tang Dynasty came to attack. I think, the Tang Dynasty had originally coveted Xiliang. Now, it's just an excuse."

"Besides, I am fighting with the Tang Dynasty at the order of the king. Is Miss Fan questioning the king?" Su Baotong turned his tone and asked with a whistleblower.

When Fan Lihua heard this, she was a little annoyed by Su Baotong's unreasonable behavior.

Under Su Baotong's slightly smiling and playful gaze, Fan Lihua took a deep breath and said with a smile: "So that's it. Marshal Su is really loyal to the king and to Xiliang!"

"Of course!" Su Baotong did not blush at all and said righteously: "I, Su Bao, have been favored by the king, how can I not repay the death to fulfill my loyalty?"

Fan Lihua was a little annoyed and knew that it would not make sense to this guy.

Fan Lihua, whose eyes flashed slightly, was slightly silent before slowly speaking: "He came over just now. Lihua saw the soldiers under Marshal Su besieged Suoyang City, and it seemed that she could not capture Suoyang City for a long time, and she suffered heavy casualties!"

"Ha! My men are too useless, so Miss Fan laughed," Su Baotong, who was smiling on the surface, had a cold and violent look in her eyes.

Fan Lihua shook her head and said, "So many people were killed or injured. According to Lihua, it was not because the soldiers did not have to live, but...

"But what?" Seeing Fan Lihua stopping and Su Baotong couldn't help but frown and shouted.

Fan Lihua, who was slightly silent, looked at Su Bao and said, "Please ask Marshal Su to save Lihua's courage. Lihua feels that Marshal Su trapped the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the army in Suoyang City, which was originally a bad move."

"Stinky chess?" Su Baotong, whose mouth twitched lightly, grinned with a slightly cold smile on her face: "Oh, that handsome man, I want to listen to Miss Fan's opinion."

Fan Lihua seemed to have not seen the coldness in Su Baotong's eyes, and said with a deep thought: "Marson Su wanted to close the door and beat the dog, but he did the thing to lead the wolf into the house. Or, Marshal Su's appetite was too great. Before the imperial army to swallow it, he had to think about eating it with the second army of the court. Don't you know that the second army of the court was a hard bone and not so delicious. Although the imperial army and the emperor were at the mouth, they were not so delicious."

"It's a bit interesting!" Su Baotong smiled and nodded: "I didn't ask Miss Fan to be a military advisor earlier, which is really a mistake!"

Fan Lihua just smiled: "Marson Su has been awarded too much! Lihua just said this casually."

"Miss Fan talked about the key point in just a few words. With such eyesight, if Miss Fan is not a woman, this position as the Grand Marshal of the Western Liang army, I should really consider whether to give it to you," Su Baotong smiled and signaled.

Fan Lihua shook her head and smiled, "Marcedes-Master Su is very skilled in martial arts, and Lihua has heard of it for a long time. Lihua is a woman, how dare you imagine the great marshal's honor?"

Su Baotong was so angry that he heard this. This obviously meant that he was just a martial artist!

"Hehe..." Su Baotong, who laughed, shook his head slightly and suddenly asked: "By the way, since Miss Fan has such a good understanding, then what do you think should I do now to solve the current dilemma?"

Fan Lihua said directly: "If Marshal Su wants to get out of the predicament, it is the best choice to withdraw troops now."

"Hmph! Fan Lihua! What benefits does the court give you to make you betray Xiliang?" Zen Master Feibo shouted coldly: "We and Marshal Su worked hard to design, and finally trapped the imperial army and the emperor in Suoyang City. Now that we say we should withdraw our troops, we will withdraw everything we did before, so wouldn't everything we did become useless?"

Su Baotong waved his hand slightly to signal Zen Master Feibo to calm down, and a look of contemplation appeared on his face.

After a while, Su Baotong looked up and smiled at Fan Lihua: "Miss Fan, now the two-way army of the court is coming in a fierce manner. In Suoyang City, the imperial army in the west is still tenacious. Although this commander holds hundreds of thousands of troops, if they face their internal and external cooperation, it is really hard to say who will win and lose after a big battle. Withdrawal and preserve their strength, put away their fists and wait for the opportunity to swing the fists again. It is also a good idea."

"Marson!" Zen Master Fei Bo's expression changed and he looked at Su Baotong anxiously.

Fan Lihua smiled at Su Baotong and nodded, "Master Su can take it and let it go, and he is indeed brave!"

"Okay! I'll listen to Miss Fan and withdraw the troops!" Su Baotong nodded, "But at this moment, if I retreat rashly, and the second army of the imperial court and the imperial army in Suoyang City attacked me together, I'm in trouble. I heard that Miss Fan and the marshal Xue Dingshan of the second army of the imperial court seemed to have friendship. It's better to go see Xue Dingshan on my behalf and tell him that as long as he suspended the march and gave me some preparation time, I'll withdraw the troops. At that time, he can unlock the siege of Yangcheng without spending one soldier and one hand, and also have an explanation with the Emperor of Tang. He should agree."

When Fan Lihua heard this, she felt relieved and stood up with joy on her face and bowed to Su Baotong: "Master Su is very wise, and Lihua thanks Marshal Su for the thousands of Xiliang soldiers. If both sides can temporarily stop the military, it would be a blessing for the people. Without further ado, Lihua will say goodbye first."

"Okay! Miss Fan. I'll wait for your good news!" Su Baotong nodded and smiled: "I won't give it to you!"

Seeing Fan Lihua saying goodbye with a happy face, turning around and leaving the handsome tent, Su Bao's smile on both sides slowly faded.

"Marson, you are really ready..." Zen Master Feibo spoke hurriedly.

Su Baotong sneered and said, "Retreat troops? A joke! This general finally trapped the imperial army and the Emperor of Tang. Seeing that his achievements were successful, how could he easily withdraw his troops, causing the previous design to fail?"

"Marson, in fact, what Fan Lihua said is not unreasonable. Let's withdraw our troops first and preserve our strength. We are not sure if we fight in a real battle! After all, our unsuccessful attack on Suoyang City in recent days will have a considerable impact on morale. The two armies of the court have conquered three passes in a row, and their sharpness will be strong. Their arrival will inevitably boost the morale of the army trapped in Suoyang City. We are really in harmony with the inside and outside, and we..." The Tieban Taoist said with a worry-like look on his face.

Listening to the words of Taoist Tieban, Su Baotong, whose face changed slightly, waved his hands and gritted his teeth and said firmly: "No need to say more about Taoist priest! I have made up my mind. Taking advantage of the second army of the court being held by Fan Lihua, I will attack Suoyang City with all my strength, and at all costs. As long as we capture Suoyang City, even if the second army of the court comes, I can still defend the city and slowly waste it with them."

"That's right! The defenders in Suoyang City have persisted for so long, and I'm afraid they can't hold on. If they stop at this time, they will indeed fail," Zen Master Feibo's eyes were burning.

The Tieban Taoist could not help but frown with some concern and said, "Marcedes-in-law, this is too risky! Once we fail, then these hundreds of thousands of troops are afraid...."

"Hmph! Even if this failure is the case, I have the confidence to make a comeback," Su Baotong was very determined: "Since ancient times, who can succeed easily without taking risks? Three, if I can deal with it so easily in the Tang Dynasty, I, Su Baotong, don't need to ask you to come out to help me. What's the point of success without any twists and turns? Are you willing to fight with me side by side and fight for our great cause?"

Taoist Master Jin Yan smiled: "I can't wait for a while to be the masters in the court army!"

"I have been waiting for this battle for a long time! Before, the imperial army was so cowardly in the west, it was really boring to play," Zen Master Feibo grinned, his smile with a ferocious and cold smell.

Seeing this, the Tieban Taoist couldn't help but gritted his teeth: "Okay! Since you are all so confident, I will accompany you!"

"Haha! OK! Pass the order and attack Suoyang City at all costs. I personally suppress the formation!" Su Baotong stood up suddenly and shouted with a sharp aura.

Zen Master Feibo and the other three looked at each other, and they were all excited and stood up.

"By the way, Marshal! The young Tang army general who had been broken by you appeared in the North City today. Strangely, his arm was actually intact," Zen Master Fei Bo, who seemed to think of something, frowned and hurriedly said.

Su Baotong was stunned when she heard this, and then her eyes shrank slightly and hurriedly asked, "Tang Army Young General? You mean..."

"Rebirth of broken arm?" Su Baotong couldn't believe it: "Who master was actually cured quietly? It's really abominable to ruin my big deal!"

Taoist Master Jin Yan also said solemnly: "Master Su, rebirth of broken arms is not an ordinary method. This person who secretly treats the young general of the Tang army is not an ordinary person! If that person is an enemy of us, just..."

"By the way! Marshal, that young general of the Tang army seems to be Fan Lihua's junior brother," Zen Master Feibo continued.

Su Baotong was a little surprised and couldn't help but frown and said, "Fan Lihua's junior brother? Haven't you heard that Lishan's mother has ever taken on any male disciples?"

"Fan Lihua admitted it personally, it should be impossible to make a mistake," Taoist Principal Jin Yan also hurriedly said: "Master Su, that young general of the Tang army should not be a disciple of the old mother of Lishan. If I was not wrong, he should be a disciple of the senior master who was a friend of Lishan. I just don't know who he is!"

The Tieban Taoist with a slightly moving expression raised his eyebrows and said, "By the way, someone has broken through the formation masters that blocked our army into Suoyang City before, is it that...?"

"It must be Fan Lihua!" Zen Master Fei Bo also reacted and stared at him and said angrily.

"Fan Lihua!" Su Baotong, whose face turned cold, couldn't help but look cold: "How dare you ruin my big things repeatedly? Do you really think you are the disciple of Lishan's mother, so I can't do anything to you? Humph! When I deal with Xue Dingshan, I will ask you to settle the accounts. I want to ask Fan Hong, how did he teach his daughter."

The Tieban Taoist couldn't help but say: "Marson, it's not time to go. Fan Lihua's affairs can be put aside for the time being. It's important to capture Suoyang City. We don't have much time to delay."

"Suoyang City? Speaking of which, I have to thank Fan Lihua this time!" Su Baotong, who sneered, had a cold look in his eyes: "Let's go! Follow me to the north gate of Suoyang City, I want to see if the young Tang army general dares to fight me. This time, once he fights with me, he will not be as lucky as last time."

Taoist Master Jin Yan also said confidently: "Master Su's direction! If he dares to take action, I will help you capture him."

"Capture him? What should I do to capture him? Once I have the chance, help me kill him directly!" Su Baotong's murderous intent was in his eyes: "Since Fan Lihua is determined to be an enemy of me, don't blame me for being ruthless."
