Chapter 722: The North King and his Son
“Now, do you know me?”
The surroundings were full of Zhenbei soldiers, but no one dared to step forward to help their commander-in-chief.
This is the rule for martial arts competitions in the army. Among the Yan army, rules are also the most important.
If King Jingnan led the soldiers from Jingnan to attack the general at this time, then these soldiers from Zhenbei would not agree or stand by and watch.
But their general was defeated in a one-on-one battle with the prince, so they actually had no way of swarming him.
In the end, no matter how much you compare Zhenbei Hou Mansion to the first vassal town in Great Yan, as long as they don't blatantly rebel, they are still Yan troops and Yan people after all.
The military meritorious prince of Yan State still has a strong deterrent effect here. Of course, the most important thing is the sense of identity.
Tian Wujing’s boots were stronger than before, suppressing Li Yuanhu’s head.
"I...you..."
No matter how powerful someone says, it still sounds like a threat;
Some people say nothing, but you dare not think that it is a threat;
Obviously, King Jingnan belongs to the latter.
In the past, hearing about deeds and fame from a distance was not real enough. But now that I am facing it in person, the feeling is different.
Li Yuanhu’s hands were on the ground,
I patted it,
This was considered giving up.
The King of Jingnan took back his boots and without even looking at Li Yuanhu lying on the ground, he looked around and said:
"Seeing the marquis's order is like seeing the King of Zhenbei. This is General Li Liangting. Give this order to me As he said personally, today I want to see if Li Liangting, a veteran of the Zhenbei Army, is as obedient and disciplined as he said.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Army. Where is it! ”
"The last general is here!"
"The last general is here!"
"Immediately issue an order to seal off the camp for twenty miles. No outsiders are allowed to step in. If any unknown person enters, he will be killed without mercy. !”
“The last general takes orders!”
“The last general takes orders!”
...
Inside the big tent;
Li Yuanhu sat on the ground, rubbing his neck.
"Hiss...oh...hiss..."
Tian Wujing sat on the commander's seat. In front of him was a list of military supplies and supplies.
The list is not detailed enough.
Tian Wujing looked at it for a while and pushed it aside. Different soldiers and horses have different attributes. The two original Zhenbei Army units of Li Fusheng and Li Bao have actually been separated from the original Zhenbei Army system for a long time;< br>
He used them as soon as he called them in Jin. Whether it was the Zhenbei Army, the local army or the Jin Army, they would all cooperate according to his style as King Jingnan.
But the Zhenbei Army left behind in Beifeng County has always adhered to the style inherited from the Zhenbei Hou Mansion;
In short, it is rough.
This is really uncomfortable for King Jingnan who always likes to use his troops carefully.
Looking down, looking at Li Yuanhu who was kneading his body and gasping, Tian Wujing said;
"The second punch, you shouldn't "Hardly connected."
Although Li Yuanhu is not sore now. But after hearing this, he still smiled and said:
"My lord, I am just greedy. I wanted to try your fists and kicks, but I really didn't expect that my lord's strength would be so strong." ...No, it's the use of strength, I will admire it
But this is good. If the prince beats the general like this, the bastards below will not dare to disobey the prince in the slightest.
You don’t know that in our Zhenbei Army, whoever has a strong fist is often obeyed, and whoever is more domineering in doing things is more willing to obey.
This military discipline is external, but internally, it is actually very tight.
You already have a great reputation. If you give me another beating, everyone will be convinced. ”
If Li Yuanhu can be the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army and be adopted as his adopted son by Li Liangting, he definitely cannot be a fool.
Li Fusheng, who likes killing and eating beans and drinking while wearing a blood-soaked iron suit after fighting on the battlefield, is actually a master who is rough on the outside but delicate on the inside;
The same is true for Li Yuanhu.
The King of the South arrived with the order from the Marquis. No matter how unhappy he was, he should not have taken the initiative to provoke him. This was... deliberately looking for a fight;
But for the newly arrived army, For King Jingnan who wanted to quickly establish his authority in the army, beating up the entire army was indeed the most direct and most effective way.
“As long as you don’t feel embarrassed in front of your subordinates.”
"Hehe, it depends on who is being beaten. I am convinced that I was beaten by you, Your Majesty. Besides, as long as it can contribute to the upcoming war, my arms and legs will be fine."
Li Yuanhu knew what to do next, but it was only limited to him and Li Chenghui, the two generals.
Beifeng County is adjacent to the desert. Over the years, the business exchanges between the two sides have been extremely close and intensive. Although there have been occasional frictions, generally speaking, peace has remained.
In addition, in recent years, the young prince of the barbarians has shown favor to Emperor Yan again and again, and is willing to serve him as his sons and nephews. It is inevitable that the local nerves will be a little numb.
The most important thing about this expedition is to keep it secret.
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as the Northern and Southern Kings leaving Beijing at night.
“Your own Qi and blood are very strong, but your luck is too rough, so it doesn’t matter in the battle formation. However, when you catch an opponent and fight, you will definitely suffer.”
“It doesn’t matter. We are not people in the world.”
Li Yuanhu didn’t care much about this. All his efforts were devoted to being suitable for the military.
Back then, when the barbarian Zuogu Li King Shatuo Queshi broke into the Beihou Mansion of Zhenzhen, he went to fight him, but chose to avoid the attack temporarily because he saw that Shatuo Queshi had a desire to die and did not want to Although he was seriously injured, this also reflected his lack of confidence in his "one-on-one" ability.
It can only be said that there are very few people like Tian Wujing in this world.
A martial artist is known for his physical strength. A martial artist who is both physically strong and knowledgeable in alchemy is like a rough man playing with embroidery needles.
"Your Majesty, are there still enough weapons and food?"
"It's not enough, but it's enough."
It's not enough because more can be prepared and carried. More.
It was enough because after all, we were just preparing for a surprise battle.
The biggest trade-off between the two is that once large quantities of ordnance and food are entered, it is likely to alert the snake.
I think that when Zheng Fan was here, the blind man could even find out the news about the leakage of Zhenbei's ordnance. This shows how difficult it is to keep secrets in this place;
However, , from another point of view, once the confidentiality work is done well enough, once the troops are sent out, it will be so unexpected.
The desert barbarians and the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion have been neighbors for hundreds of years. They know each other well and have extremely close people-to-people exchanges. There are many barbarian merchants in Tuman City. At the same time, the Zhenbei Army Auxiliary There are also a lot of barbarians in the military camp.
I think the Barbarian King came here as a barbarian to steal his skills;
A little closer, hundreds of barbarian soldiers used by Lord Zheng when he raised his army were also connected from here.
This is an objective phenomenon that you cannot change, you can only overcome it.
So,
King Jingnan just ordered a blockade around the military stronghold. This was not an extraordinary move, because the Zhenbei Army would do this every time he practiced martial arts.
Li Yuanhu looked at King Jingnan and said:
"Your Majesty, when will we set off?"
"Wait for Li Liangting."
Li Yuanhu nodded. He raised his head and said: "We really need our prince to show up."
Tian Wujing raised his eyes and said
;
“He wants to go on an expedition together.”
“What?”
Li Yuanhu was really shocked. .
In the eyes of outsiders, especially the soldiers and civilians of Beifeng County, the King of Zhenbei is really a majestic existence that can be posted on the door during the New Year;
But those who are really close to the Hou Mansion know that In fact, King Zhenbei's health has never been good.
“Control the inside and outside of the military camp well. The key to success or failure in this battle lies in surprise.”
“The general will understand!”
……
"Ouch, ouch..."
Zhenbei King Li Liangting was lying on the carriage at this time.
The cart was not pulled by Pixiu, but by two horses.
The people protecting the outside are not knights in armor, but are still dressed as ordinary merchants' entourage.
Zhenbei King’s Pixiu fell down from exhaustion.
It’s not that his Pixiu is any worse than King Jingnan’s Pixiu.
The reason is that
Li Liangting’s body is weak, so Pixiu had to deliberately keep his posture when driving him. This is actually an additional consumption of Pixiu, which is equivalent to a person not being able to bend his knees when climbing a mountain.
But King Jingnan’s Pixiu has no such worries at all.
It is carrying the most powerful man in Dayan,
Just run westward happily,
Only this beast can't stand it, but there is no reason for the one on its back who can't stand it!
But despite this, when King Jingnan arrived at the military camp where Li Yuanhu was located, he was almost exhausted.
On Li Liangting's side, they changed their carriages. After hurrying and slowing down, they were still pushed back by King Jingnan for a day and a half.
Fortunately, we have finally entered the boundaries of Beifeng County.
"Your Majesty, we're here."
The carriage team turned off the road and entered a forest ahead. Deep in the forest, there was a newly built tea shed.
Outside the tea shed,
there were three people standing, a lame young man, a beautiful woman, and a skinny old man.
In the tea shed, there was a woman sitting.
Li Liangting was helped down from the carriage;
Li Fei, Li Qian and Qi Shu saluted together:
"I have met my father."
"I have met the prince."< br>
“Haha.”
Li Liangting looked at his children with a smile on his lips, but soon his eyes fell behind them.
Immediately,
reached out his hand to signal the children to give way, and he staggered into the tea shed while supporting his waist.
It is said to be a tea shed, but there is no good tea, and the tea fragrance is not strong.
Li Liangting is not a person who pays much attention to tea ceremony. He picked up the teapot, held it to his mouth, and drank a lot of it.
Then he put it down, wiped his mouth, and sat sideways on the bench.
Uncle Qi stayed outside, and Li Fei and Li Qian walked in.
"You are getting old, it's time to take a rest."
The old lady looked at her husband and persuaded him.
When the King of Zhenbei was still the Marquis of Zhenbei, he came to Beijing and lived in the back garden. Emperor Yan had a good-humoured chat with him. After the wine, Emperor Yan once said that Qian'er looked like her mother.
The future emperor and the former marquis never staged a drama of chasing a woman,
but when they first saw this woman, they were together.
Two men always criticize a beautiful woman when they see her.
The former Ji Runhao said, it looks good, it is beautiful;
The former Li Liangting said, it looks good, take it home.
Of course, it is impossible to rob, but the Marquis Mansion proposed marriage, and the Yan family, even the most noble family at that time, would not refuse, let alone refuse.
Emperor Yan had three palaces and six courtyards,
but King Zhenbei only had one wife in his life.
Faced with his old wife’s persuasion, Li Liangting smiled and waved his hands, saying:
“It’s precisely because I’m afraid that my bones won’t be able to move for a few days, so now it’s more I can’t bear to take a break.”
"When you are old, you are no longer young. When you are old, you are a burden." The princess said this very directly.
Li Liangting is the only woman in her life. If she can't even find out in advance what her man is thinking and what he will do, then it would be a real failure.
“It’s a burden, it’s indeed a burden. In the end, I couldn’t keep up with Jing who went out with Wu Jing, so I had to let him control the troops first.
This requires Putting it aside when you were young, haha..."
A hero does not mention his courage in the past, unless he is not a hero now.
Li Liangting's eyes fell on his daughter and said with a smile;
"My daughter is becoming more and more beautiful. She is exactly the same as your mother when she was young. When you were first born, your father and I I'm afraid, I'm afraid that this little girl will grow up If you just follow your father and me, wouldn’t that be a shame for you, my daughter?
It’s okay, it’s okay, haha.”
The princess sighed and said:
< br>“Old girl.”
"What? What if I, Li Liangting, my Li family, can't raise a girl at home?"
"Bang!"
The princess slammed the table and scolded
Road:
"You old thing, you were the one who sent your daughter to Beijing in the first place, and then, and now? Let me tell you, it would have been better to marry a well-matched family early on..."
"Tian family? Liu family? Xue family? Tsk, tsk, tsk, look, those families you wanted to help your daughter with, where are they now?" In the middle, it disappeared into ashes.
Li Liangting did it himself!
“What about your wife that day?” the princess sneered.
“This is dad’s fault.” Li Liangting looked at his daughter, “Dad can’t help my daughter.”
Li Qian knelt down and said:
"Father, this is the daughter's luck. It has nothing to do with the father. The daughter has never had the slightest resentment towards her father."
"It has nothing to do with him?" The princess pointed at Li Liangting, "Do you really think that your father doesn't know anything? Do you really think that your father just chose the wrong person and looked at the wrong prince?"
Li Qian lowered her head and said nothing.
At this time, what is happening in Beijing has not yet been conveyed here. Firstly, it is because the distance is too far, and secondly, they are rushing back as quickly as possible, even if they are the messengers of the imperial court. Or the informants of each family cannot be faster than the two princes.
Li Liangting blinked and didn't even distinguish the accusation.
At this time, seeing that the atmosphere was stagnant, Li Fei stepped forward and said;
"My son heard from his father earlier that Prince Jingnan is also here?"
" Yes, here we come.”
“Then Mr. Pingxi is also...”
"Ping Xihou didn't come."
Li Fei wanted to make Chen Xianba his own.
"Are you still used to it at home?" Li Liangting asked.
“To tell my father, home is very good.”
“Yes.”
Li Liangting took a breath,
spit it out slowly,
said:
“In a few days, the Barbarian Royal Court will hold a meeting of the Golden Horde Alliance. "You should go on behalf of my father and congratulate our old neighbor on behalf of the Zhenbei Palace." (End of Chapter)
