"I understand—"

Li Shimin's voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were dark: "But I still feel uncomfortable in my heart, if I could have been calmer and more decisive at that time, I should have been able to do better." ”

He knew that his sixth cousin was true, and presumably his subordinates would not have any complaints against him. But his heart was still heavy, after all, this was the biggest casualty he had suffered since he commanded the army.

"I forgot, you kid, you're actually just a brat who hasn't grown all his hair. ”

Li Xiaoji's eyes already showed the meaning of enlightenment, and he couldn't help but smile: "With so many deaths and injuries among your subordinates, it should be the first time you have experienced it? As for being able to do better or something, that's a stupid idea. There is no need for you to be so yourself, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the pursuit of the ultimate in the use of troops will only affect your judgment. Your attainments in the art of war are far superior to mine, and you should understand that the way of using war is the truth of balance. ”

He still appreciates Li Shimin's performance tonight as a whole. At a critical time, you can still be ruthless, and you should give up, which is what a good general does.

Although this kid's performance after the war was a little sentimental and sad. But at Li Shimin's age, this is actually inevitable.

If he had been cold and unforgiving from the beginning, he would have felt fear. Such a character may be able to act on the battlefield for a while, but he will not be supported by deployment.

Li Shimin also fell into contemplation, and after a long time, he finally exhaled a breath of turbidity: "My nephew has indeed drilled the horns of the bull, thank you for the guidance of the sixth uncle." ”

"Thank you? Sooner or later, you will be able to figure this out yourself. ”

Li Xiaoji smiled with relief, patted him on the shoulder, and then said goodbye: "I am estimated that I am no longer needed here, and I will leave to rush back to Luoyang after early morning." ”

When he said this, his face was helpless again: "Those rabbit cubs, three days and two ends of the beam and tile." I really can't rest assured, and I hope that this time, they won't cause too much trouble. ”

He is still the mountain master of Weishan Hall, and this time he was just invited by Li Yuan to come over to help temporarily. As a member of the martial arts Li clan, he has an unshirkable responsibility for today's affairs.

Li Shimin has nothing to save, and he also knows the virtues of those students in Weishan Hall.

These 'juniors' of him are either from Kansai Jiangmen or from local wealthy families, and it may be a bit too much to say that they are 'lawless', but the character of these guys is really out of the woods, and they don't know how thick the sky is.

It's good to have Li Xiaoji to restrain him, but once the mountain chief is gone, others can only pray to these guys not to burn down the Weishan Hall.

And after sending Li Xiaoji away, Li Shimin remembered that he hadn't seen Zhang Yurou for a long time.

When he saw this girl before, he had been sitting cross-legged on the altar near the lookout. There is Zhang Kongming next to him, and there are a bunch of ancient desolate dragon bones in front of him, and with the help of the power of the altar, he is constantly seducing the heaven and earth primordial spirits, and the movement is not small.

Li Shimin looked at her, she should be making and summoning the 'Dragon Bone Dao Soldier' - he had seen the description of this kind of thing in some Taoist books. It is made of the bones of the desolate dragon, and the combat power is not bad, depending on the material, the strength of the keel dao soldiers is also different. The lower limit is about five grades, and the upper limit is two grades, if they can find a way to integrate the true intent of martial arts into it and keep it constant, then their strength can go further.

During the Warring States Period, when the bones of the primeval desolate dragon were still very common, those magicians and qi practitioners often used them to make 'dragon bone dao soldiers' as protectors, and developed a complete system. Those third-grade level magicians, if they didn't have three or five dragon bone dao soldiers to follow them, they really had no face.

In modern times, first, because of the bones of the ancient desolate dragon, it has been difficult to excavate them; second, because this kind of Taoist soldiers have been summed up by the magicians of that era after the prevalence of the world, and have developed targeted Taoism; third, it originated from the eastward invasion of Buddhism, and the Taoist gate bottomed out after encountering the crisis of life and death, but it inspired a prosperous era of Taoism, and under the impetus of several geniuses who did not come out of the Taoist sect, they continued to innovate in Taoism. So at this time, the sorcerers already have a more cost-effective choice in terms of Dao soldiers.

Of course, this is not to say that the 'Dragonbone Dao Soldiers' have been eliminated. This kind of Taoist soldier, even in today's era, still has strong combat effectiveness. It's just that because of the high price of the Ancient Wild Dragon, most of them are daunted. Especially those who have second-grade strength, don't have so many weak dragon bone dao soldiers, and need a large number of prime-aged prime-aged dragon bones, and then refine their essence in a special way - carefully calculated, the cost should be no less than three million, which is comparable to a well-made king-level battle armor.

So after Li Shimin saw it, he was still very happy for Zhang Yurou. For this reason, he also specially instructed his subordinates to keep them away from the altar and not to disturb them.

But what makes him strange is that it is almost dawn at this time, and Zhang Yurou's side is not over yet?

It's just a dragon bone dao soldier, is it so difficult? Or is Zhang Yurou's method of making a dao soldier different?

It's also possible, he had noticed it before, Zhang Kongming's gaze at Zhang Yurou had always been very wrong. It's like the big bad wolf seeing the little white rabbit - it may be a little wrong to describe it, but that's how Li Shimin felt at that time.

If this old man is really interested in Zhang Yurou's talent, then it is still possible to temporarily teach Zhang Yurou a Dao technique unique to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

During the Warring States period, although warlocks continued to develop spells to restrain this kind of Dao soldiers, the method of refining the 'Dragon Bone Dao Soldiers' was also constantly innovating. It is like the relationship between the spear and the shield, and soon after the presence of a stronger shield, a sharper spear often appears.

Therefore, when the 'Dragon Bone Dao Soldier' was at its peak, there were dozens of different factions' inheritance and refining methods in the entire world. The Heavenly Master's Mansion has been inherited for more than 600 years, and it has lasted for more than 20 generations, and there are countless Taoist secret techniques treasured in the mansion, which are even better than those in the palace.

It is normal that there are one or two unusual secret methods hidden in it.

In addition, the materials here are also sufficient, and the bones of the primeval desolate dragon outside the walled wall can be used by Zhang Yurou.

And just when Li Shimin couldn't hold back his curiosity and planned to go to the front of the altar to take a look with his own eyes. A chamberlain dressed in the robe of the eunuch in charge of the case hurriedly walked in front of him.

"Your Majesty has an order, pass on the preparation to fast, and Li Shimin, the captain of Wumeng, will meet you quickly!"

Li Shimin's expression was slightly abrupt, and he immediately bowed down to answer the order. The news of the Son of Heaven was as early as he expected, as the biggest hero of the Keping rebels on the surface, His Majesty ignored him, which made people feel strange,

At this time, the Son of Heaven must have taken care of the finishing touches and finally remembered him.

※ ※ ※ ※

When Li Shimin, under the guidance of the eunuch in charge of the case, entered the imperial camp, he was immediately noticed by everyone. Everyone here, from the soldiers of the forbidden army to the many ministers who came and went here, all looked at him in unison. The expressions of these people are also different, some of them are envious, some are curious, some are scrutinized, some are pleased and admired, but more are unwilling and jealous.

This time, he was in the limelight, and it was indeed a little bigger. Not only was it under the fierce attack of 100,000 corpse bone Yin troops, 6,000 elite forbidden troops, and hundreds of primeval desolate dragons, they defended the left rear camp, but also personally entangled with the evil spirit for a long time.

The key is to defend the imperial camp and save the lives of the three emperors and grandsons with his own hands, and afterwards let those chaos be flattened in one fell swoop - this is no less than saving the driver.

Although about the matter in King Yan's tent, because the Son of Heaven was completely sealed, few people in the army knew about it. But just these credits on the surface are staggering.

At this time, even if Li Shimin's popularity in the forbidden army has always been very good, it is inevitable that he will be hated and jealous.

According to what the eldest grandson Wuji said before he came, some of the people in their comrades were already red.

The so-called tree is a big wind, and the name is high and slanderous, this is the truth. Many people only see the benefits he gets afterwards, but they don't think about the risks he experienced during this period.

Of course, Li Shimin doesn't care about it, he has enough background to deal with this bright and dark storm.

And when he came to the front of the imperial tent, he found that Wang Chonggu, the ambassador of embroidered clothes, was actually waiting outside in person. This made Li Shimin feel flattered.

"Your Majesty has asked you several times, saying that you are procrastinating, why haven't you arrived yet?"

Wang Chonggu said as he motioned for Li Shimin to follow him: "Your Majesty is in a very bad mood today, and he has reprimanded several ministers and generals, but he still loves you Vilusha. Later, whatever your majesty wants to ask, you just have to answer truthfully. ”

Li Shimin's expression moved slightly, knowing that this was Wang Chonggu's suggestion to himself, and immediately bowed and thanked him.

But the latter seemed to be unaware of it, and continued to move forward: "Shen Yuan, he asked me to thank you, tonight's battle, if you hadn't noticed something wrong in time and rushed back to King Yan's tent to help, the consequences would have been really unimaginable." Otherwise, he really didn't have the face to explain to His Majesty. ”

Li Shimin realized that the 'Shenyuan' he said should refer to Tang Yuanhua, and this Tang Gonggong seemed to be using the word 'Shenyuan' for himself. But few people in the world will call it that, what kind of 'word' should a eunuch and inner servant use?

"This is the last general's job, and the last general will not dare to do it. However, it was Tang's injury that made the last general a little worried. ”
