Chapter 418: Employed

It's rude to stand behind someone silently, and if you accidentally hear something, it's easy to turn against you, and if you hear too much that you shouldn't hear, it may turn into a fight or murder.

Therefore, the act of standing silently behind others is not only rude, but should be raised to the level of morality and law, and is a very serious crime......

"So, not only are you speaking ill of me behind my back, but you're also standing on a moral and legal plane at this moment accusing me of not standing behind you silently?" Cao Yu asked lightly.

Li Su said with a smile: "It's all big husbands, there's too much to worry about, so let's do it, I don't blame you for standing behind me, and you don't blame me for saying bad things about you, let's offset this matter in pairs, and forget about it from now on, what does Cao Tingshi think?" ”

Cao Yu Dingding looked at Li Su for a long time, suddenly laughed out loud, shook his head and said: "Li Beijia is a young man and a county prince, and the official residence is four grades, Chang'an all say that you are spoiled by Your Majesty with your peerless talent, and your former residence is in a high position, but in my opinion, even unreasonable things can be made up by you, especially don't forget to bite others, it can be seen that Li Beijia has a great ability that is different from ordinary teenagers, this ability has nothing to do with talent, but what I admire is that you can see the hearts of the world thoroughly and thoroughly......"

Saying that, Cao Yu sighed lightly and said: "The words of officialdom just now are black and white, they are golden and jade good words, deafening, and those who have not been up and down in the court officialdom for decades can't say such things, the strange thing is that you, a teenager, how can you see the officialdom so clearly, every word can be described as to hit the nail on the head." ”

Li Suqiang said with a smile: "The lower officials are talking nonsense, and they are laughing at the Fang family." I also hope that Cao Thorn Shi Mo will be ...... with the lower officials."

Cao Yu shook his head, suddenly smiled, and said, "I heard that you were in Chang'an. Your Majesty has praised you many times as a rare young talent in a century, and you have even won the honor and favor of Your Majesty's holy family, and you are both domineering and calculating. I am not wronged when I am planted in your hands. ”

It's not easy to take these words, Li Su tastes it for a long time. I'm not sure whether this is secretly scolding myself or praising myself, so I'd better keep my mouth shut.

The blood-red sunset was still a little dazzling, and Cao Yu squinted. Staring at the red sun that is sinking into the horizon. I don't know what I'm thinking.

After a long time, Cao Yu didn't reply, and suddenly said: "Please Batel to help Xizhou, I thought you didn't do anything wrong, but the people of Batel's tribe are not easy to follow, in the final analysis, they are not my race, they took the silver money given by Xizhou back then, and ate the grain and grass sent by Xizhou." But I can see that Battle is still very wary of us Tang people. And very greedy, in the past three years, I have sat on the ground and raised the price many times, and I have no integrity in speaking, sometimes I go halfway, saying that if I want to increase the price, I must increase the price, otherwise I will not move an inch, in recent years, I have actually been slowly diluting them, if it were not for Xizhou to help me hold on, I would have mobilized troops and horses to encircle and suppress them......"

Li Su said with a smile: "In fact, I have always agreed with Cao Thornshi's approach, and I broke this matter apart and said, in fact, it is just a transaction, the difference is that you and Batel are not buying and selling goods, but force, in the past three years, the existence of this Turkic cavalry is very important, and I don't think that Batel has done it wrong to sit on the ground and raise the price, helping us defend the city means participating in the war, and fighting and fighting is to kill people, and Batel is equivalent to exchanging the lives of the tribesmen for money and food with you, in exchange for the entire clan to continue to multiply and survive, For the survival of the group, it is not too much to buy more money. ”

Cao Yu turned his head to stare at him: "Do you think I did nothing wrong?" Battle is not wrong with that? ”

"Of course that's right, you are defending the city, and Battle is trying to survive, who dares to say that there is something wrong? I'd rather put that Turkic cavalry in another way, if I called them 'mercenaries', as the name suggests, would you still feel uncomfortable? ”

Cao Yu's eyebrows jumped, and he muttered, "'Mercenary'? That's a good way to put it......"

"Being hired by people, taking people's money, eliminating disasters for people, the task given to him is not easy to live and die, after the completion of the frank and frank money, this transaction is considered a great success, next time there is a deal, continue to negotiate the price, and they will continue to eliminate disasters for you, you see, what a reasonable and legal thing."

"So you're going to send someone to hire Battle to help us defend the city?"

"Yes, at a critical juncture, life hangs by a thread, all the power that can be used must be used, defend this city at all costs, and survive at all costs."

Cao Yu muttered: "What if Battle helped, but didn't defend this city in the end? How can you explain to him the so-called sponsorship of the so-called sponsorship in front of His Majesty and the inclusion of them in the Anxi Protectorate? ”

Li Su looked at him strangely: "Cao Tingshi, are you okay?" Can't hold the city, you and I are already dead at that time, the promise of the dead naturally does not have to be fulfilled, a push of two, five or six is the correct style of painting, what do you admit when people are dead? If he's not happy, he can come down to me for a theory. ”

Cao Yu: "............"

See clearly, this kind of person can't make friends with him, he's tired of talking, if everyone is alive after this battle, let's forget about each other!

****************************************************************

The next day, just after dawn, the enemy camp outside the city began to beat drums.

Li Su didn't go down to the city tower all night, he slept with his back against the city wall for half the night, heard the sound of drums outside the city, Li Su jumped up at the same time as he opened his eyes, and looked out through the gap in the arrow battlement, only to see the enemy camp with figures and buildings, swords like a forest, and soon, a team of armored soldiers came out, quickly lined up in formation, and then stepped neatly towards the city gate.

Li Su's heart sank, and today he only vaguely saw the spirit of the enemy soldiers from a distance, and he felt that it was completely different from yesterday, and there was a bit of resoluteness in the quiet slaughter. Today's offensive and defensive battles are really tragic and fierce.

"Prepare for war!" Li Su turned his head and shouted.

Hundreds of archers rushed to the battlements of arrows, lined up in a row, and behind them were carried out one by one, and the baskets were full of the greatest hope for defending the city, the earth-shaking thunder.

The morale of today's defenders is obviously much higher than yesterday's, every soldier standing in the queue, can't help but turn around, from time to time to look at the big basket full of earth-shaking thunder, his eyes show warm expectations, obviously yesterday a hundred earth-shaking thunder thrown out after the fact that the enemy immediately retreated, gave the soldiers defending the city incomparable confidence.

Only Li Su is becoming more and more pessimistic.

Shocking thunder is a good thing, but he already knows that the key to determining the outcome of a war is not sharp weapons, but people, from generals to soldiers, the victory or defeat of a war is always only in the hands of people, relying on weapons alone, you can't escape defeat.
