Chapter 441: Sand Table Bureau
The pawn hurried to the Yongning Tongyuan carriage and horse shop, although he thought that Li Qi and most of them had already hidden, but there was no guy who greeted the guests outside the door of the carriage and horse shop, and the pawn still panicked.
panicked, because he knew that Li Qi and they were no longer here, so Li Qi's layout should have been completed, which was definitely not a good thing for Lord Zeng.
People sometimes suffer precisely because people don't have only one feeling, and they don't have feelings for only one person.
People will divide their feelings into extremely delicate, how they treat this person, how they treat that person, how they treat men, and how they treat women.
It's all the same friend, and it's no different from that friend and how it is to that friend.
Some people say that there are no two leaves that are exactly the same in this world, so there will be no two people in this world who have exactly the same feelings.
Especially between friends, don't think about why it's different, that kind of thing you think is different for you and for another friend.
You think it's the same relationship, but maybe when you don't know, someone else has helped you, and when it's your turn, you hesitate to help.
But the most troublesome thing about people is that they have been accountable since birth, which is one of their nature.
The pain of the pawn is not in the calculation, but in the trade-off.
Li Qi is a friend, and Zeng Ling is a Shangguan.
So when he arrived at the carriage and horse shop and found that there was no guy outside the door, he panicked a little, this time because of his feelings for Zeng Ling.
Then he was relieved, this time, it was his feelings for Li Qi.
He jumped off his horse, pushed the door and entered the carriage and horse shop, and walked through the front yard to the back yard, empty, as if the people had disappeared out of thin air like the three thousand tigers and leopards in Luo Jing.
But Jin Zu knew that Luo Jing did not have that kind of ability, and the disappearance of Luo Jing must be Li Qi's method.
At this moment, his heart was already extremely complicated, but when he saw Li Qi sitting there in the gazebo in the backyard, he knew that his heart could be even more complicated.
He walked towards the gazebo, and Li Qi got up and smiled at him.
There was only one Li Qi left in this carriage and horse shop, and when he walked towards Li Qi, he still thought to himself, why is Li Qi here?
The answer is actually how obvious it is in this, just because of waiting for him.
So at this moment, he understood that this complexity was not only in his heart, but also in Li Qi's heart.
Whether it is the person who comes today or the person Liu Ge, Li Qi will wait here.
If it weren't for them, just facing Zeng Ling's person, Li Qi would have disappeared with his people a long time ago.
"And you got me tea?"
The pawn asked with a smile.
On the stone table in the gazebo there is brewed hot tea, as well as a few plates of snacks.
He sat down opposite Li Qi, stretched out his hand and pinched a piece of dim sum to eat, and said while eating: "I came here early in the morning, and I haven't had time to eat yet." ”
Li Qi poured him tea: "Eat slowly, the dim sum is too dry." ”
After eating three pieces of dim sum in a row, he let out a long breath, took the teacup and poured it into his mouth, somewhat satisfied.
"You want to persuade me?"
He asked Li Qi.
Li Qi snorted.
After waiting for a while, he didn't see Li Qi speak, and then he smiled and said: "I'd rather take the risk of staying here and waiting for me, just to persuade me, but when you wait for me, you don't speak, you really mean it." ”
Li Qi said: "You understand, you don't need me to say." ”
The pawn fell silent.
After a long time, he said, "So you stayed in front of me, just to tell me that you treat me as a friend." ”
Li Qi nodded.
Jin Zu smiled: "I also regard you as friends, this heart and other heart, this is enough." ”
After finishing speaking, he got up, tidied up his clothes, and saw that the clothes were stained with the slag that had just fallen when he had just eaten a snack, so he pinched it and put it in his mouth.
"I haven't seen you today, you're all gone."
The pawn looked at Li Qi: "I just have a hope, when the enemy outside attacks Jizhou City, the enemy who appears behind me is not you." ”
Li Qi finally persuaded him: "Come with us." ”
Jin Zui laughed, he may be happy because Li Qi persuaded him after all, because this sentence is enough to prove that the word friend is sometimes ranked before interests.
"I can't go."
The pawn clasped his fist at Li Qi and said: "No matter who it is, it should be happy to have a friend like you, I have been a little sad before I came today, thinking that I should be sad if I can't see you, and I should be even more sad if I see you, it seems that I am wrong...... I hesitated in my heart, but I thought I would hesitate. ”
He turned and walked away, walking in style.
didn't look back, raised his hand and waved it towards Li Qi.
Li Qi stood in the pavilion and watched the pawn go, but did not follow, because Li Qi knew that there was such a person as the pawn, and in such a situation, no one could persuade him to leave Zeng Ling.
Some people can only share prosperity and prosperity, while others can share hardship.
After leaving the carriage and horse shop, the pawn rushed back to the Jiedu Embassy, and halfway to the road, he met Liu Ge, who was searching with soldiers and horses.
The two of them looked at each other for a long time, and both seemed to have something to say, but neither seemed to know how to speak.
"Go back?"
Lyuge asked.
The pawn nodded: "Go back." ”
When the two of them staggered by, Liu Ge whispered beside the pawn: "Actually, you can go, you should go." ”
Jin Zu smiled: "It seems that you are not?" ”
The two men clenched their fists at the same time, and then staggered past.
Jiedu Embassy.
Zeng Ling sat there waiting for news, but he actually knew that no matter whether it was Liu Ge or Jin Zu today, there should be no good news to bring back.
The Luo Realm Tibetan soldiers have obviously been planning for a long time, if they can be easily found, then why hide it.
On the side of the carriage and horse shop, even Luo Jing has disappeared out of thin air, how can Li Qi still stay and wait for death.
"Report!"
A guard ran in quickly from outside, knelt down on one knee in front of Zeng Ling and hugged his fists and said: "My lord, the scout sent back the news that the traces of the Qingzhou Army were found in the southeast direction, and it was less than fifty miles away from Jizhou City. ”
Zeng Ling nodded, this is not unexpected, Luo Jing is gone, it means that people from outside the city are coming to attack the city.
"Report!"
Another personal soldier ran in and said eagerly: "The scout reports, the enemy army has been found from the south direction, the number is unknown, and the Yuzhou army flag is called." ”
Zeng Ling nodded again.
He thought, there are two of them, and it probably won't take long to wait for the news that the Youzhou army is about to arrive outside the city.
He got up, walked a few steps and stopped, stood there silent for a while, and then said, "If you want to go, it's still too late." ”
None of his soldiers spoke.
Zeng Ling waited for a while, and when he saw that the soldiers were all looking at him, he slowly exhaled a breath and said two words.
"Thank you."
After saying that, he strode outside.
Half an hour later, on the city wall, Zeng Ling, who was already wearing battle armor, stood there and looked into the distance, there was a plain outside Jizhou City, and he could see far away at a glance.
Zeng Ling held Qianli and watched, after a while, he put the clairvoyant down, looked left and right, I don't know when, Liu Ge and the pawn were already standing beside him left and right.
"Your Excellency."
Liu Ge looked out of the city and said, "It's just a battle. ”
The pawn took it and said, "We can win this time, because this time, we are for ourselves."
Oneself. ”
Zeng Ling's heart hurt, he slapped his hand on the battlement, and repeated the words of the pawn.
"This time we're for ourselves."
Underground Palace.
After Li Qi came in, the people who were waiting at the entrance closed the passage, and they walked all the way down, and when they arrived at the underground palace, everyone was waiting for Li Qi to come back in that big hall.
"Persuaded?"
Gao Xining asked Li Qidao.
Li Qi nodded.
If the persuasion is useless, it is enough to show that the pawn is ready to live and die with Zeng Ling.
"They should be fine, they are highly skilled in martial arts......"
Yu Jiuling couldn't say anything after saying a few words, because he also knew that hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city were attacking the city, and there was still Luo Jing lurking in the city, and this battle seemed to be doomed to failure for the Jizhou army.
This is the result that Li Qi has long expected, he just doesn't give up, and wants to see if he can keep it.
"Playing a game of chess?"
Li Qi said suddenly.
Tang Pidi, who was standing next to him, nodded: "Play a game of chess." ”
Everyone thought that the two of them really wanted to play chess, but they didn't know that their chess game was actually on the sand table.
Li Qi personally created a sand table in the underground palace, Jizhou is in the middle, surrounded by the terrain outside Jizhou, almost perfect.
"Do you keep it or do I keep it?"
Don asked.
Li Qi said: "You are good at attacking, and I will defend it." ”
Tang Pi said: "Then I will lead the troops of Sanzhou to attack the city, and you will defend the city with the Jizhou army." ”
Tang Pi took the three-color flag in his hand, one color represented the military horses of a state, and then began to lay out outside the city of Jizhou.
Li Qi held a small flag in the city, both of them became serious, and the others subconsciously came over to watch, no one spoke, and even breathed quietly.
One attack and one defense, everyone stared at the actions of the two people on the sand table, vaguely, as if they saw the real battle in front of them, and even a little suffocated.
The process lasted for a long time, Yu Jiuling couldn't hold on and ran to the side to rest, as he left first, the number of onlookers gradually decreased, everyone stood for too long, and the two of them had not yet decided the winner.
I don't know how long it took, Aunt Wu came over and called them to eat, but Li Qi and Tang Pidi didn't hear it at all, and still focused on the sand table.
I don't know how long later, Aunt Wu came to call them for dinner, and the two were still in confrontation.
Not long after Aunt Wu came to call them for dinner, Li Qi finally sighed, put the small flag in his hand still on the sand table, shook his head and said, "I can't keep it." ”
Tang Pi said: "According to your playing style, you can hold for a month, and even the sneak attack of Luo Jing has been blocked by you, but Zeng Ling is not you, Zeng Ling will hold on for ten days at most." ”
Li Qi snorted, and he said to Tang Pidi: "Maybe it won't last for ten days, Luo Jing will definitely sneak attack at night, probably the East Gate." ”
Tang Pi said: "You and I can think of it, Zeng Ling can also think of it, so this first sneak attack on the city gate, Luo Jing will probably not succeed." ”
Li Qi said: "It will succeed...... But it wasn't him who succeeded, it was his father. ”
Tang Pidi was slightly stunned.
Li Qi said: "In the art of war, I am not as good as you, but speculating on people's hearts, you are not as good as me, you and I and Zeng Ling can think of things, of course Luo Geng can also think of it...... It can be said that Luo Geng is stupid, but as long as he leads the troops, there are few people in this world who are his opponents. ”
Tang Pidi thought for a moment and understood.
He once said that the best leader of the troops in Dachu is the first to recommend Yang Jiju, the prince of Wu, followed by Liangzhou Tangtaiqi, and the third is Youzhou Luo Geng.
Zeng Ling led the troops, which was too far worse than Luo Geng.
Li Qi said: "What I am thinking about now is ...... Luo Geng, don't be too complacent. ”
Tang Pidi laughed: "How can he be unhappy with his temperament? ”
