Liu An looked at Teng Jian opposite him and looked a little frowning: "I figured it out. It's Li Yun's army, with a total of 20,000 people. But this is not the point, but they have an elephant soldier."

"Elephant Soldier?"

"Elephant, do you know this thing?" Liu An said.

Teng Jian nodded: "I've heard of it."

"More than a hundred troops organized by this giant." Liu An shook his head.

"It's just some beasts." Teng Jian disagreed.

"Some beasts who have been trained and can obey orders are terrible." Liu An said: "This thing is two larger than the largest cow boy I have ever seen. There are sharp blades tied to their long fangs, and five or six archers on their bodies walked over, which was really irresistible."

Teng Jian sneered: "The entire army of Lang Sang Mansion is only more than 20,000 people. This time, Li Yun actually came out in full swing. It just so happened that he would solve the problem in one battle and completely occupy Lang Sang Mansion. This is our first land in Annan, every base."

Liu An was shocked: "Aren't you waiting for the main force?"

Teng Jian laughed and reached out to pat Liu An on the shoulder: "I am the main force!"

"But you only have 5,000 people, and you are not afraid of the other party's 20,000 people, but how do you deal with those elephant soldiers?" Liu An asked.

"Leave the battle with Li Yun's main force to me. General Liu, your subordinates ambush the surrounding areas and block the captives. We will need a lot of young and strong laborers at that time. By the way, we will be examined when arresting people. If there are those guys who can train this thing, don't let them go, we will also need them in the future."

"You want to face the thing head-on?"

Teng Jian nodded: "No matter how powerful it is, it is just a group of beasts. There are so many ways to deal with them. General Liu, come and see. There are many mountains and rivers here, and there are not many places suitable for the army to fight decisively."

Liu An got up and walked to Teng Jian, looking at the map he hung on the shed.

"So, he can only walk here, but in fact, if we want to enter Lang Sang Mansion, we can only walk this road. Our people are carrying so many tracks, it is impossible to cross mountains and rivers like your subordinates." Teng Jian pointed to a point on the map and said, "I am waiting for him here and fighting him. Your troops will go around to his rear, waiting for the net, ready to capture more prisoners."

"General Teng, are you so confident? Don't you want me to support you with some manpower?"

"Forget it, your people should wait to capture the prisoners, so don't come and cause trouble for me." Teng Jian said with a smile.

When Liu An heard Teng Jian say this, his face became gloomy.

"Don't be angry. When the captives are captured, you will still be the first to enter Lang San Mansion. You can try your best to get whatever you want!" Teng Jian said.

Liu An sighed: "General Teng, is I Liu An a person who is greedy for wealth? Over the years, I have robbed everywhere. When did I put a penny in my pocket? Isn't it for everyone?"

Looking at Liu An's angry look, Teng Jian smiled but said nothing.

"When will this kind of day end?" Liu An turned around several circles in the shed, but his voice became louder.

"Speak softly, there are still people around!" Teng Jian reminded.

"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of who will hear me go to sue?" Liu An punched the pillar of the shack, shaking the whole shack rustled. "Does we have to send me to another place to rob, and always bring such a group of bandits?"

"Be careful!" Teng Jian stood up and pressed Liu An and sat down hard: "General Liu, here I..."

"I know you have uncles here too!" Liu An sighed: "General Teng, along the way, I always stand in front of you. You are the pioneer, and my subordinates die one after another. Your subordinates are also constantly replenishing, and I will never be able to form a formal combat power, and you will never be able to maintain the combat power of the army at its best."

"A group always requires someone to sacrifice!" Teng Jian smiled and said, "Did you think so?"

"I'm not afraid of sacrifice or hard work." Liu An's voice fell down, he lowered his head and said in pain: "General Teng, what I'm in pain is that my uncle is guarding me like a thief. What is he afraid of? Are he afraid of me and Buwu?"

Teng Jian laughed: "If I were your uncle, I would be afraid too! It's normal for human nature. General Liu, Bu Wu is the general's own son after all, you are his nephew, and I am his general. We must understand this."

Liu An looked up at Teng Jian: "I don't believe you have no complaints in your heart."

"Nothing is fake." Teng Jian said frankly: "But we are grasshoppers on a rope now. What else can we do besides united to survive? Besides, the general is really good to me and has great trust."

Liu An stood up with a little dejected look: "That's it, I'll leave, do what you said. You face it head-on, I'll take the lead, and I'll capture the prisoners. But I will gather the best part of the people. If you can't stand it, I'll attack you from behind to relieve some pressure."

"Thank you General Liu!" Teng Jian nodded: "It's good to have one more guarantee."

"Just leave!" Liu An turned around and walked to the door. He was about to go out, but Teng Jian behind him called him. "General Liu, you are all brave and brave. It is not difficult to train a well-trained army. You have never done it. In fact, you are afraid that your uncle will be more suspicious of you? Today, I can't hold it in my arms, so I complained to me?"

Liu An paused slightly, pressed his hand on the door, but his whole body was frozen there.

"Do you want to hear me say a few words?" Teng Jian said.

Liu An turned around and stopped Teng Jian.

"We are different. You have a special status. You have a good position in the general's foundation, so the general has always been afraid of you. Because you are indeed much better than Buwu." Teng Jian said: "This will not let the general put aside his thoughts just because you have always been like you are now."

"What suggestions do General Teng have?" Liu An said seriously.

"The general is in good health now. He can eat two pounds of meat and drink one pound of wine at a meal. It's no problem to charge on the battlefield." Teng Jian spread his hands: "So, there's no problem."

"But what?"

"But the general's age is coming. The last time in Xiangtan, Chen Wen's life-sacrificing attack actually caused great damage to the general's body." Teng Jian said: "When the general feels that he is in good health, of course he will not doubt anyone, but if the general's health is not good?"

Liu An's body shook slightly.

"Buwu alone can't defeat Annan!"

"What if we had already taken Annan at that time?" Tengjian raised his chin, looked at Liu An, took two steps, and said lightly: "At that time, the first one will be you. Maybe the one who is ordered to deal with you will be me."

Liu An's fist suddenly clenched.

Teng Jian took a step back, pointed at his nose and said, "The second one is me."

"That's my uncle!" Liu An roared: "Uncle, even if he is suspicious of me, he will definitely not be able to get to this point."

Teng Jian smiled and said nothing.

Liu An roared softly, looked at Teng Jian, and finally said dejectedly: "If we really have taken Annan by then, there is a possibility that this kind of possibility will be gone."

"So, next, you need to have your own territory and your own confidant team. Now your team has a lot of people, but how many of them can block my attack?" Teng Jian pointed to the camp outside.

Liu An was slightly shocked. He was all from the old soldiers. Looking at the military discipline of Tengjian's army outside, and then thinking about his messy camp that was like a bandit's nest. What was the result? It was self-evident. If he really faced Tengjian now, he would lose with one blow.

"Of course two or three thousand people can always be picked out." Teng Jian said: "How to choose and practice, I don't need to teach you this, right?"

"If this happens, my uncle will be more suspicious of me."

"Now is your last chance. When we take Annan, you will never have any chance." Tengjian said lightly: "When I defeat Li Yun and take down Lang San, you can take the military supplies here first, then stay away. While trying hard to grab the territory, you can train your core army as soon as possible, and then own your own territory."

Liu An was silent for a moment: "General Teng, why did you tell me this?"

"Because I don't want to be the second one!" Teng Jian smiled and said, "I am for myself. If what I expected is right, when I conquer Lang Son, I am afraid that this place will become my garrison. This is also a front line that will resist the possibility of invasion of the Tang army in the future. The general will naturally not let Bu Wu stay. At that time, we two will echo each other to at least ensure a safe life. I don't want to oppose the general, nor do I want to turn against Bu Wu, but I don't want to lose my life inexplicably because of the general's suspicion. I still want to live longer, get married and have children here, and have branches and leaves!"

Liu An raised his head and took a deep breath.

"I understand what you mean."

Looking at Liu An leaving, the smile on Teng Jian's face became stronger.

These words are really his true words. When they stabilize in Annan, Liu An will definitely be deprived of military power, and after Liu An falls, he will inevitably be himself. If he does not pull out these prestige and capable old people one by one, how could Liu Xinda pass the power to Liu Buwu with peace of mind?

If a person has no future intentions, he will have immediate worries!
