Chapter 956 – Attack to Replace Defense

In the letter, Ouyang Shuo made promises to both Gu Hengxiao and Li Mu.

For Gu Hengxiao, Ouyang Shuo promised him a Governor appointment and the title of 1st class Earl. It was an improvement from his current position as the Laifeng City Lord, making Gu Hengxiao quite satisfied.

Compared to Gu Hengxiao, Li Mu’s treatment was one that would make everyone else’s eyes turn red with envy.

Ouyang Shuo directly promised him that he would become a marshal. He could lead a legion corps, and he would receive the same treatment as Han Xin, Sun Bin, and Huo Qubing.

When Li Mu saw the letter, his hands could not help but shake because the position of marshal was the greatest pursuit of all the generals in the world.

To be able to receive such a promise, there was nothing else in the world that Li Mu wanted.

Seeing this, Gu Hengxiao sighed to himself. He knew that if he did not agree, their relationship would sour. He acted like he did not see Li Mu’s reaction, and he turned around to face West Gate Big Official, “The Great Xia King treats me so well. I’ll obviously follow him. As for any specific arrangements, brother West Gate can just say it out. Laifeng City will follow.”

With Li Mu’s help in the Great Xia Army, Gu Hengxiao’s position as governor was really stable.

West Gate Big Official was delighted, and he smiled, “The king wants General Li Mu to be the main general to command Fenggang City, Laifeng City, and the remaining territory armies to attack the Pill Sun City Army. He wants them to help the Leopard Legion Corps in their encirclement of Xiangnan Province.”

“I’ll follow the king’s orders!”

With the meeting was over, Gu Hengxiao officially signed the agreement. West Gate Big Official heaved a sigh of relief, as his mission was basically complete. Everything else would be up to Li Mu.

West Gate Big Official was so eager because Ouyang Shuo had given him an even bigger promise of Provincial Governor. The prerequisite was that he needed to use his influence in the two City-States to help the dynasty take down both provinces.

Ouyang Shuo’s actions showed his eagerness to recruit talent.

After which, West Gate Big Official handed over the power of the 70 thousand troops of Fenggang City to Li Mu. After they gathered with the 40 thousand of Laifeng City, they immediately headed for the remaining two houses in Changde Prefecture.

Li Mu commanded 110 thousand troops, and there were also seven territories in Xiangnan Province that were on Great Xia’s side. If they still could not win against Pill Sun City’s two War Fighting Legion, Li Mu would not dare accept the position of marshal.

This battle was Li Mu’s battle to prove himself to the Great Xia Army.

Along with Fenggang City and Laifeng City changing flags, the battle in the north region of Xiangnan Province formed a standstill between two sides, stopping Pill Sun City’s advances.
