That night, the thousands of cavalry soldiers returned to Shendu City, and when they returned to the camp, the soldiers who stayed in the camp greeted them one after another, seeing that there was no shortage of comrades with blood splashed on their clothes, and there was a lot of curiosity and envy in their eyes.

Unless they are the most vicious people, they certainly do not take pleasure in killing. But the thousand cavalry called themselves a strong army, and the soldiers also called themselves brave, but since the formation of the army, the scope of activities has been limited to a few small cities in the north of the ya, and the words are heavy guards, but in fact they are like confinement, even if they are dispatched, they are only used as honor guards.

Heroes have no place to play, and heroes have no chance to advance, which naturally makes the thousands of cavalry soldiers feel depressed, hoping to have a chance to show off their might.

This time, the foreign envoy dispersed the monks of the White Horse Temple, although it is really not worth boasting about, but it is also a rare experience for the thousands of cavalry soldiers who are tired of seeing several small cities in the north.

Of course, it is not excluded that these thousands of cavalry soldiers are all lemon essences, and they are unwilling to admit that Xue Huaiyi is so good, so they have a kind of pleasure and fun to show off their strength and beat them.

In short, when Li Tong led the crowd back to the camp, he obviously felt that the attitude of the soldiers in the camp towards him had changed significantly, becoming more respectful, and there was an uncontrollable expectation between his eyebrows.

The so-called people's heart and military heart do not necessarily have to be courteous and virtuous, and they can only be obtained by asking for it. Being able to make people passionate and confident about what they are engaged in, and full of imagination to improve their current situation, is also a key consideration for leaders.

The Wu family has been in charge of the military affairs of Beiya for many years, and the infiltration and accumulation carried out by Li Tong are certainly not something that Li Tong can replace in a short period of time.

But Li Tong also has the characteristics that the martial arts family can't reach, dare to break the deadlock, and have the courage to change the status quo, which can make the thousand cavalry soldiers no longer just trapped in the boring task of guarding, so that they can get more opportunities to show their bravery and gain upside.

Those who are brave and brave and professed to be famous, and they are all made of bows and swords. Compared with the kings of the Wu clan, Li Tong is more aggressive and more resolute, although he has shown very little, but he has a completely different hawkish atmosphere.

After returning to the camp, Li Tong summoned Deng Wansui and two soldiers in the camp, and began to compile the experience of the foreign envoy into a report, ready to be submitted to the forbidden center.

When doing this work, Li Tong felt that the personnel structure of the thousand cavalry was too simple, and Deng Wansui, who was in charge of the command before the battle, was born as a slave and was only superficially literate, although he was brave and heroic in battle, but when he summed up after the war, he did not even have enough verbal organization ability, and he had to rely on Li Tong to supplement it.

As for the two writers who joined the army, they were either good at general affairs, but the writing and ink were not their forte, and the newspapers they wrote were boring. After Li Tong read it, he simply picked up the pen himself to polish it, saying that it was polishing, but it was almost overturned.

Although the matter is such a thing, with the absolute elite of the forbidden army ravaging a rabble, of course, the report cannot be written like this.

The so-called 500 weak brigades rushed to the front of the battle, the mountain gate of the White Horse Temple was strong, the courtyard was deep and wide, and the secrets had been leaked before the war, and thousands of unscrupulous and strong men were forcibly gathered, the roads and gates were destroyed, and the officers and soldiers were fiercely resisted. The officers and soldiers are not timid in battle, and they attack bravely, such as strong arrows hitting the soil, breaking the mountain gate with a snap of their fingers, carrying the power of the emperor's life, such as thunder into the temple, a drum is decided!

If Li Tong didn't still have some discipline, perhaps even the road congestion caused by him and the fact that he had to march into the wilderness were blamed on the monks of the White Horse Temple, who used demonic methods to bewitch the people and obstruct the officials and troops from expelling them.

Of course, if you have to say it, it doesn't have much to do with whether you are disciplined or not. After all, his grandmother only ordered the dispersal of the monks of the White Horse Temple, not to destroy the Dharma and destroy the Buddha, and if he really wanted to involve the people, the matter would be serious.

After the report was written, half an hour had passed, and Li Tong ordered someone to knock on the Xuanwu Gate and prepare to enter the palace to resume his life.

At the same time, I secretly decided in my heart that I had to find a few powerful big hands to serve as the pen in Qianqi, he was a general of the unified army, and he had to write an essay after the battle, which was really undignified, and the text came from himself, and it was not easy to write too exaggeratedly, which seemed unstylish.

Regarding this point, he immediately thought of Chen Ziang, who had always been close to him. So far, when it comes to the courage and strength of poetry and literary style, there are few people in the world who can surpass Chen Ziang. Of course, Li Tong is not among them, but his recent focus is not on copying.

However, Chen Ziang is still guarding the election, not in the Shendu City, it seems that he has gone out to travel, this kind of rich second generation is rich and free, of course he can't be idle.

When Li Tong came to Xuanwu Gate, Wu Youning was not here, of course the generals guarding the gate did not dare to make it difficult, and let him go directly, and even took advantage of the opportunity to whisper in Li Tong's ear: "Your Highness is strong today, and I and the Beiya army are also respectful!" ”

When Li Tong heard this, he couldn't help but be happy again, it seems that his momentum of attacking Xue Huaiyi this time is still quite popular. Since the eve before, Zuo Yulin's general Lu Chongyu has released goodwill to him, and to today's breakthrough of the White Horse Temple, whether it is a thousand cavalry soldiers or Yulin Army, there are different degrees of expression.

These shifts, while only in words, are a good start. At this point today, there was no peace between him and Xue Huaiyi, but he didn't expect Xue Huaiyi to help him in this way, so that he could brush up his sense of existence in the minds of the soldiers of the Northern Ya.

After entering the Xuanwu Gate, he asked the palace officials to report the recital into the palace, while he waited in Xuanwu City for a while.

But this wait was approaching dawn, and finally waited for the female official to send a message. It was an old acquaintance Shangguan Wan'er who came, but the information conveyed made Li Tong frown secretly.

"His Majesty the Holy Emperor told His Highness with his concubine that he had worked hard and rested in the camp."

Shangguan Wan'er's beautiful face couldn't tell how she was in a mood, but her tone focused on imitating His Majesty the Holy Emperor: "Your Majesty has a word, the king is diligent and courageous, this is a good thing." But manpower has its own strengths and weaknesses, and gods and Buddhas are terrible after all. The monks of the White Horse Temple can be driven lightly, even if they are guilty, they should not be slaughtered by His Royal Highness. ”

Shangguan Wan'er was worthy of being under control for a long time, and when she deliberately conveyed the oracle in the tone of the Holy Emperor, Li Tong could even think of what kind of expression and mood his grandmother was in when she gave this instruction.

The so-called gods and Buddhas are terrifying, but they are nothing more than empty words. Even if there are gods and Buddhas in this world, they are also lofty and ethereal, so how can they care about these miscellaneous disputes in the world. What is truly terrifying is the human heart after all.

Sure enough, Shangguan Wan'er whispered again, which confirmed Li Tong's conjecture: "Xianggong Wei of Xiantai, enter the palace to discuss things at night......"

After saying this, Shangguan Wan'er said goodbye and left. Li Tong sent it out of the hall, and when he saw Shangguan Wan'er walking away, he felt a sense of irritability in his heart.

This time, he attacked the White Horse Temple, and the killing was too much, which of course made his grandmother dissatisfied. But the love between grandparents and grandchildren is not a short time, this point of disagreement is not a big problem, if it is in a stable world, a few words beating, and then he has a correct attitude and admits his mistakes, which is not a big problem.

But listening to Shangguan Wan'er's meaning, he has not returned to the palace yet, his grandmother has summoned Wei Yuanzhong into the palace to discuss matters in person, there is no doubt that he hopes that Wei Yuanzhong can control the voices of the imperial historians of Xiantai, and do not let public opinion take advantage of this matter to play a big role.

At present, there are still big cases in the DPRK and China, and the imperial heirs are exhausted to protect themselves, so of course they hope that there will be new hot events to divert public opinion and share the pressure. It just happened that under such circumstances, the White Horse Temple was raided, and both Xue Huaiyi and the monks of the White Horse Temple could undoubtedly be used as a good fire target.

If the public opinion talks stop there, that's easy. Now that Li Tong has already done this, Wu Zetian may not be able to completely give up Xue Huaiyi and the White Horse Temple, so that public opinion will lose the target of attack.

But this will lead to a new question, that is, will such concessions directly affect the tone of Wu Zetian's worship of Buddha? Once the problem rises to this height, the impact on the current situation is by no means limited to Xue Huaiyi's honor and disgrace.

In short, anyone who has risen to a certain height in the current situation wants to go directly to the head and kill with a knife, how can it be so simple. Even if it's just a straw bale, as long as he is in the center enough, it has the effect of moving the whole body.

It is precisely because of this that Li Tong is not too worried about disagreements with his grandmother, and now he has a certain irreplaceability in the current situation.

It's normal to have any small frictions and contradictions, and even Wu Chengsi is not willing to be just a puppet, and wants to be a prince with all his heart.

Of course, Li Tong can't just lie down under his grandmother's wings for a long time, his wings are hard, of course he has to shake it, as long as the contradictions don't accumulate to a high level, it will be difficult for his grandmother to make up her mind to give up on him completely.

Even if they have a third uncle Li Xian as a candidate in their family, the current Wu Zetian's control has or has not reached the level of continuing to change generals.

Not to mention the attitudes of the other parties, Wu Zetian really dared to reveal his intention to call Li Xian back at the moment, and even Li Tong had to find a way to kill his third uncle. It's a big deal, let you be a monkey!

The reason why Li Xian was able to come back safely in history was, on the one hand, that the Khitan rebellion in Hebei exposed the incompetent nature of the warrior kings, and the imperial heir Li Dan and his family also languished to the extreme under the perennial suppression.

Wu Zetian had to test the minister's attitude again and again, Di Renjie and others could accept Li Xian only once, so he secretly recalled Li Xian back to Shendu and met the minister, and then announced it to the public.

Although Li Xian has no place in the current situation, as long as he is alive, it will be a hidden danger for Li Tong and them.

The troubles and suppression that he needs to consider now do not only come from his grandmother and the Wu family, but also from the old ministers of the Tang family of his fourth uncle.

If it weren't for Li Xian, he would not even have to think too much about his grandmother's attitude, and directly get together with the martial arts family to kill his fourth uncle first, and then the situation would suddenly become clear.

But now because of the existence of his third uncle, he will inevitably be restrained in the face of his fourth uncle, and he will not even dare to be as ruthless as he is to the kings of the Wu family.

Once his face is torn, his ceremonial nature of cutting into the queue will suddenly decrease, almost nothing. Of course, as he grows deeper in the current situation, his fourth uncle and his family are also facing the same problem, which really makes Lao Tzu anxious, and Lao Tzu only recognizes my third uncle!

Although they are afraid of each other, the imperial heirs also have an advantage, that is, they hold the righteousness in their hands and rely on the old to sell the old.

Thinking of this, Li Tong couldn't help but have a headache, worried that those old guys would seize the contradiction between him and Xue Huaiyi to complicate it and pull him into the chariot.

If it weren't for your group of lonely old ministers getting in the way, let alone Xue Huaiyi, Lao Tzu would have dared to cut Wu Chenghei directly when he seized the opportunity!
