Before Xiao Zhixing could even speak, everyone in the live stream got excited.
[Red comment: Could it really be him??]
[Yellow comment: OMG, don't scare me! I'm scared, he's dead! How could that be?!]
[Green comment: Then why did he say that? That person is indeed a soldier!]
They don't even dare to say their names now, because they feel a chill down their spine if they do.
Bai Su: "Waaah, don't scare me, this is too terrifying."
Ignoring the fact that Xiao Zhixing might hear her, she cried out, "I'd rather believe he's his twin or a double or something than enter a supernatural horror world!"
She was most afraid of ghosts.
[Yellow comment: Okay, okay, stop talking. Let's treat him like a different person and talk about serious matters. Let's calculate: the Prince has basically taken control of the four northern states.]
[Yellow comment by Xiao Peiyou: With control of the military affairs of three states, and the internal affairs of Beizhou and Mengzhou under our grasp, it's not impossible to win over Nian Chenghan of Ningzhou with a little effort. As for Xiazhou, it all depends on Mu Wan.]
[Red comment: Huh? Why do you have a name?]
[Green comment: Exactly, how come you can display names?]
[Yellow comment: Hahaha, haven't you guys noticed yet? Our official account can display names, but Xiao Shen's personal account can only display them because he's not only the developer of this live streaming system, but also the Crown Prince of Dasheng Interstellar!]
[Yellow comment: Newly promoted, welcome back Xiao Shen, greetings to Your Highness the Crown Prince!]
[Yellow comment: Xiao Peiyou: No need for formalities.]
After scanning the comments, Xiao Zhixing spoke to Xiao Xuan, "Perhaps you were a soldier before?"
Xiao Xuan pondered for a moment, "Hmm, then I must be very powerful."
Xiao Zhixing chuckled, "Maybe so. How about I give you a few hundred men to lead yourself?"
Xiao Xuan's eyes lit up. "Okay, thank you, sister!"
The three people in the live stream, including Bai Mei who knew the truth, fell silent.
I don't know what Xiao Zhixing is planning.
Xiao Zhixing's smile was inscrutable and its meaning unclear.
Half a month later, she led her people back to Mengzhou and arrived at Changyukou.
"This humble general, Luo Zhengxi, pays his respects to Your Highness."
Xiao Zhixing dismounted and gestured for him to dispense with formalities. "Are you Luo Zhengnan's younger brother?"
Luo Zhengxi chuckled, "Yes, Your Highness, it's my cousin."
He had previously served in the Xiao family army but had not joined the guard. It was only after arriving in Beizhou that he distinguished himself and was fortunate enough to become the Junior General of the Mengzhou Border Defense.
However, he was even more envious of his cousin's close relationship with the prince. Waaah, he also wanted to reach the Heavenly Rank—he was extremely jealous when he received his cousin's boastful letter.
Xiao Zhixing met his bright eyes and tapped him on the shoulder with his whip, "Work hard and strive to surpass Zheng Nan as soon as possible."
"Yes!" Luo Zhengxi's eyes lit up.
Changyukou has now become the territory of Xiao's army. Xiao Zhixing climbed the small city tower to take a look.
This is a canyon sandwiched between two towering, vertical mountains. At its widest point, it can accommodate two or three horse-drawn carriages, while at its narrowest, it can only accommodate four or five people.
Because Changyukou connects three countries, merchants and porters often travel through it to do business in the northern barbarians and the northern frontier.
Luo Zhengxi, who was following him, said, "At that time, the people from the northern frontier disguised themselves as a merchant caravan to sneak through the border and launch a surprise attack on the border troops, letting their main force in."
In fact, the border checkpoints are the strictest in checking travel permits and identity documents. Northern Xinjiang was well prepared and forged dozens of fake documents.
Those people even imitated the accents and facial expressions perfectly, which is why they were able to successfully deceive the border troops.
Due to the attack from the northern border, the city gates are temporarily closed.
Xiao Zhixing pointed to the many people hiding under the cliff outside the pass, "Are they all people who didn't get through in time?"
"Yes, General Liu was furious and closed the city gates, refusing them entry. More and more people are returning home, and those who can't get in are all down below. I felt sorry for them, so I put down a lot of food for them."
Xiao Zhixing turned around and left the gate. "Let it in, but check it carefully."
Luo Zhengxi should be the one.
Before long, the city gate was opened halfway. Xiao's army rigorously checked everyone and it took them two hours to let them all in.
Some sensible people put down a lot of supplies, bowed to them, and then left.
Some bowed to Xiao Zhi from afar to express their gratitude.
Xiao Zhixing withdrew his gaze and said to Luo Zhengxi, "I won't stay any longer. You guard Mengzhou well, remember to recruit more people. Don't worry that I can't afford to support them, but don't lose to Wei Zhao."
Luo Zhengxi shouted, "Yes!"
Xiao Zhixing ate lunch casually and continued on his way with his men, but before they had gone two miles, several people caught up with them.
"Prince Yuansheng! Prince Yuansheng!"
Xiao Zhixing turned around and saw Liu Yufeng.
It was fortunate that his horse was strong enough to carry him and still move its legs.
Upon approaching, Liu Yufeng's horse foamed at the mouth and knelt down. He seemed unfazed, sliding off the horse and kneeling down with a thud. "Your Highness, why won't you give this humble general a chance to express his gratitude?"
Xiao Zhixing couldn't bear to look. "Alright, get up."
This huge lump is kneeling on the ground; even by sight, it tastes extremely spicy.
Liu Yufeng kowtowed once before struggling to his feet, chuckling, "Your Highness, if you're not in a hurry to leave, let me have a good time currying favor with you?"
Xiao Zhixing said irritably, "Spit it out."
Liu Yufeng stammered twice before smiling obsequiously, "I heard that the three sons of the Bai family have joined the Xiao family army. I may not have much else, but I have more than a dozen sons. I wonder if Your Highness needs any more men? We can let them work under your command as laborers."
Xiao Zhixing asked him, "You suddenly had an epiphany. Who was the master who guided you?"
Previously, he was reluctant to give up the meager power he held, and after retaining his official position, he was unwilling to relinquish the power to defend the border. Now, he actually intends to take the initiative to come closer to us.
