Li Yuan's figure shook slightly, and his eyes looked at his son anxiously, but he didn't quite understand, why did he make a show at this time and recommend Li Jing to lead the army. Bayi Chinese Network ==≤.≤

As soon as his thoughts turned, Li Yuan was in a trance.

This smart son of his, this is an opportunity to ask for war, and he wants to win military power for their Li family.

You must know that the defeated soldiers, under the command of the king of the Southern Courtyard, there are only less than 4,000 soldiers and horses left, as the so-called subordinates can't speak, and his position in the Liao State will definitely take a sharp turn.

If Li Jing, the minister of the Southern Courtyard, can win a big battle for him, not only can he save some face, but he can also take advantage of the situation to get the command of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Yelu Abaoji, wouldn't it be a double win.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan also followed: "Khan, this general Li Jing under the command of his younger brother is the best at winning by surprise in his life, and the minister believes that he will succeed if he goes out to raid the grain and grass of the Wei army." ”

As he spoke, the father and son of the Li family glanced at Li Jinglian.

Li Jingzheng also wanted to use a victory to wash away the shame and prove his ability, but he didn't want to, so he gave up his hand and said: "Minister Li Jing, I am willing to lead the army to attack and take Jiling City, and burn the grain and grass of the pottery thieves for the Khan." ”

When Yelu Abaoji saw the father and son of the Li family, so resolutely protecting Li Jing, he couldn't help but think a little about it, and wondered whether to agree.

Sima Yi said: "King of the Southern Courtyard, with all due respect, if the news is correct, when the first battle of Pingcheng was fought, you sent this General Li to attack the Wei camp, but it failed, and now you want to recommend him to take on such self-confidence, I don't know where you got your self-confidence." ”

Li Yuan's expression was shocked, and he was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

Li Jing frowned, and said in a deep voice: "The previous failure was just an accident, I was already about to succeed, who would have expected that an enemy general named Yang Ye broke out in the middle of the Wei camp, this person relied on his natural strange strength to spoil my good deeds, if it weren't for this accident, I would definitely not lose that battle." ”

"Yes, Yang Ye's appearance is just an accident, and it must not explain General Li's strength." Li Shimin hurriedly followed, but swept away the rest of the generals and asked: "If you don't send General Li, which of you has the confidence to dare to lead troops to attack Jiling." ”

The generals were shocked, and they all looked at him left and right, avoiding Li Shimin's eyes, and no one dared to say anything.

Whether it is a Liao general like Yelu Huge, a Han general like Yan Liang, or even a mid-stage martial saint general like Lu Bu, they have all suffered losses from pottery merchants, and in such a high-stakes battle, they naturally have no confidence to ask for help.

No one said anything, which means that Yelu Abaoji has no one to choose from.

His brow furrowed, his towel wiping beads of sweat as he weighed it.

After a moment of silence, Yelu Abaoji slapped the case and said happily: "Okay!" Since you trust this Li Jing so much, this Khan believes in your judgment, and Li Jing listens to the order. ”

"The minister is here!" Li Jing came out of the ranks.

Yelu Abaoji threw the eagle feather order arrow and shouted: "Ben Khan gave you 30,000 iron horsemen, and ordered you to lead the army to attack and rob Jiling City, Yuan brother They value you so much, Ben Khan believes that you must be outstanding, you must not let Ben Khan down." ”

Li Jing picked up the arrow, arched his hand, and said resolutely: "Don't worry, Khan, if you don't succeed in this battle, you will become benevolent!" ”

Yelu Abaoji nodded, but he felt that it was not appropriate, so he swept around the generals again and asked: "Who else has the courage to attack with Li Jing and burn the grain and grass of the pottery thief for Ben Khan!" ”

The generals bowed their heads silently, and no one answered.

Just when Yelu Abaoji was unhappy and wanted to be angry, Gao Changgong in the corner gritted his teeth, stood up, and arched his hand: "Qiqi Khan, the minister is willing to go to war with General Li." ”

Gao Changgong, a general of the Han State, was promoted by Liu Bei in the line of fire because of his humble official position, and was jealous of Yan Liang and other Han generals, so after returning to the Liao State, he did not have the opportunity to warm up in a group, and he was not allowed to be reused in the Liao State.

He also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, eager to prove himself in order to gain the favor of Yelu Abaoji and occupy a place in the Liao Kingdom.

Today, a great opportunity is in front of him, even if there is a risk, how can he miss it.

"You?" Yelu Abaoji's eyes were a little skeptical, obviously he didn't know much about Gao Changgong's strength.

But there was no Hanchen who spoke for Gao Changgong.

Only Yelu Chucai whispered to Yelu Abaoji: "Khan, the minister heard that this Gao Changgong has a kind of evil power of 'demon face', as long as he wears a mask, he can make the enemy tremble and his spirit is hit. ”

"This Gao Changgong still has such magical skills, why Sima Zhongda and they haven't told Ben Khan about it!"

A hint of surprise burst out of Yelu Abaoji's eyes, and the questioning expression dissipated in an instant, and he immediately praised: "It's hard to grow Gong you have such courage, Ben Khan admires people like you the most, okay, Ben Khan ordered you to be Li Jing's deputy general, and the two of us work together to make sure that Ben Khan attacks Jiling City and burns up the grain and grass of the pottery thief!" ”

Gao Changgong was overjoyed, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Thank you for the Khan's trust, the last general will live up to the Khan's trust!" ”

……

At night, the north gate of Shaling City.

Yelu Abaoji looked solemn, holding a mace, standing on the north gate, with a pair of wolf eyes, looking in the direction of the south.

A moment later, steady footsteps sounded, and Li Jing stepped up to the city.

"Yu Khan, 30,000 light horsemen are in place, please give the Khan's order." Li Jing's tone was full of self-confidence.

Yelu Abaoji's gaze looked at Yelu Chucai again, and looked at the Khitan strategist he trusted the most, with a little worry in his eyes.

Yelu Chucai pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Now that it is about to enter the summer, it is becoming more and more unfavorable to our army, since the father and son of the king of the Southern Courtyard trust this Li Jing so much, maybe this person can indeed achieve great things, this danger, Chu Cai thought that he could take a risk." ”

Yelu Abaoji nodded slightly, and after taking a few deep breaths, there was no longer hesitation in his eyes, only determination.

He took a few steps forward, appeared in front of the battlements, looked down at the Liao cavalry that had gathered in front of the city gate, and said loudly: "Warriors of the Great Liao, today's battle is related to the life and death of my Great Liao State, Ben Khan wants you to show twelve points of courage, for my Great Liao State, for the future of our iron cavalry can set foot on the Wei State, grab their territory, grab their women, and fight to the death for Ben Khan." ”

Grab the land, grab the woman!

A bold statement, only these few words can move people's hearts the most, and the fighting spirit of the Liao soldiers was ignited in an instant.

"Let's fight, fight to the death for the Great Liao Kingdom!"

"For the sake of Khan, fight!"

"Rob the women of the Wei State, grab the territory of the Wei State-"

Under the city, the soldiers of the Liao State were excited, shouting loudly, swearing their determination to fight today.

Yelu Abaoji nodded with satisfaction, his eyes fell on Li Jing, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Li Jing, Ben Khan believes that Ben Khan's vision will never be wrong, these 30,000 iron horses Ben Khan will be handed over to you, don't let Ben Khan down." ”

Li Jing arched his hand and said angrily: "Khan, rest assured, Li Jing will use the head of the item to guarantee that this battle will be won!" ”

"Well, Ben Khan is waiting for the news of your victory!"

Yelu Abaoji laughed, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Open the city gate, the army is out!" ”

The order was passed down, and the closed gate of Shaling City slowly opened, and the drawbridge was slowly lowered.

Li Jing galloped down the city without hesitation, jumped on his horse, and after taking a deep look at the night outside the city, he took a deep breath and said sharply: "The whole army will go out and attack Jiling with the general!" ”

In Lang Lang's confident shout, Li Jing stepped up his horse and was the first to rush out of the city.

Gao Changgong followed, and immediately after, 30,000 Liaoguo light horsemen poured out of the north gate like a tide.

Jeruabauji stood at the head of the city, looking at the departing army from afar, watching them go out of the north gate, turn in the direction of the west, and finally disappear into the night.

His gaze finally turned to the Li family's father and son, "Brother Yuan, nephew, I hope that this person you are protecting, can make great achievements for Ben Khan, otherwise, ......"

In the latter words, Yelu Abaoji did not say it explicitly, but the implication was clear:

People are recommended by you, if you don't succeed, don't blame me for being angry with you at that time.

A chill immediately passed through Li Yuan's back, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Li Shimin couldn't see a trace of unconfidence on his face, and he arched his hand and said proudly: "Khan rest assured, the people of the world dare to guarantee with their lives, Li Jing will win this time." ”

Seeing that Li Shimin was so confident, Yelu Abaoji didn't say anything anymore, turned his eyes to the south, and looked at the lights of the company camp in the Wei camp in the distance, and there was a cold sly smile flashing in the wolf's eyes.

……

Wei Ying, inside the imperial tent, the lights are bright.

Outside the imperial tent, the generals of one member and the strategists of one member are entering the tent in 66 to participate in the latest imperial military meeting.

A quarter of an hour before the time set by the Son of Heaven, Yang Ye rushed to the imperial tent, followed by the young lieutenant general, who was the second son Yang Yanding.

Since the previous battle in Pingcheng, Yang Ye relied on his talent for breaking attacks and the talent of seven sons to break Li Jing's surprise attack, and he rose to prominence, became famous, and was named a general by the pottery merchants.

The day before yesterday, Yang Ye broke through the battle of Tongguocheng, Yang Ye with the ability to draw water to extinguish the fire, extinguished the fire wall, opened the passage for the Wei army to enter the Tongguocheng, and then made miraculous achievements, and won the appreciation of the pottery merchants, the title of Pavilion Marquis, and got the qualification to participate in the military meeting before entering the palace.

Today, he came in response to the edict to participate in the military council.

Yang Ye took a light breath, straightened his clothes, and prepared to enter the account, but Yang Yanding was excited, and he was about to go in.

"For my father to participate in the Imperial Military Conference, what are you doing with you?" Yang Ye turned his head and glared at Yang Yanding.

Yang Yanding hurriedly said: "It is said that the Son of Heaven is the reincarnation of the true dragon, and the son wants to see the demeanor of the Son of Heaven, so the father will take the son in for a long time." ”

Yang Ye gave him a blank look, and scolded: "You little rabbit cub, you are just a little captain, what qualifications do you have to participate in the imperial military meeting, you give me an honest wait outside, waiting for me to come out." ”

"Oh." Yang Yanding was reprimanded and retreated sullenly.

Yang Ye glared at him again, and just before he turned around and was about to enter the tent, just as he had just lifted the curtain with one hand, he suddenly felt a trace of strangeness.
