Hou Junji was ordered by the emperor to march west to Gaochang and Qiuzi, leading a total of 40,000 troops, directly crossing the grassland desert from the front line of Xue Yantuo in the north, and it took more than three months to reach Xizhou.

If you want to conquer Gaochang Qiuzi, Xizhou is the bridgehead of the Tang army, this city must pass by, no matter how you can't avoid it, it can be seen that the strategic location of Xizhou is indeed very important, Li Su held Xizhou City, which saved Hou Junji a lot of trouble.

…………

In the camp, Jiang Quan and Cheng Chu Mo Tian Renhui and others were so busy that they yelled and yelled at the soldiers under their command to clean and clean, and then the whole army lined up, preparing to meet the Hou Jun army, as for Li Su, he was still lazily half lying on the carpet basking in the sun, watching the soldiers in the camp busy, and he didn't want to move when he burned his eyebrows.

It feels a little ridiculous, this problem seems to have been handed down from ancient times to the present, the leader came to inspect, and the unit began to rectify the internal affairs and clean up in a hurry, just to leave a good impression on the leader.

Li Su didn't care not because it was rude, but because he felt that it was unnecessary, the leader came to think that this camp had given him enough respect, but he would not be so stupid as to think that the camp was so clean every day, and it could be regarded as a fake.

Hou Junji's army came sooner than expected.

Two hours later, the sand dunes east of the camp were faintly visible, followed by the appearance of cavalry in twos and threes, and finally like ants pouring into their nests, the dunes were covered with black spots, and the banners loomed in the dense crowd.

It wasn't until the advance was almost under the city of Xizhou that the figure of the Chinese army appeared in the eastern sand dunes, and as usual, it was a large scene of dense black spots, the kind that people with dense phobia would go crazy at a glance.

Jiang Quan, Tian Renhui and others greeted them out of the gate early, waiting quietly and respectfully. It wasn't until the Chinese army under Hou Junji's headquarters was about to arrive in front of the camp that Li Su was urged by Xu Mingzhu, put on his official robe, and slowly walked outside the gate, raised his eyes and swept it, but saw the army rumbling in front of him. Raising the yellow sand in the sky, the yellow mist is as if it has been hit by industrial haze.

Li Su immediately raised his sleeve to cover his nose, and sighed in annoyance: "It's too early to come out, and I should be reserved for another half an hour......"

As soon as the words fell, I saw a burst of laughter in the yellow sand.

"Haha, the Li family doesn't know the etiquette, and when she sees the general, she still doesn't see the etiquette, and the sage books are all read in the dog's stomach? Your Uncle Cheng Uncle Niu is an uncle. Isn't General Ben an uncle? ”

The picture is very terrifying, only the sound is not seen, the sound seems to be sent by the internal qi dantian of the martial arts master, it can be heard in all directions, but there is no one in sight, and all the scenes in front of him are covered by the yellow sand.

Li Su was shocked and blurted out in horror: "What the hell! ”

Then, Li Su only felt that the collar on the back of his neck was tight. The whole person was picked up, hanging in the air like a large strip of salted meat. Fluttering like a legacy of independence.

Li Su was more and more shocked, and just after struggling a few times, he heard a cold wind blowing in his ears.

"I've been in the barren land for two years, and there is no one in my eyes anymore, don't you see the old man standing in front of you alive? Well? Believe it or not, the old man will whip you in front of your subordinates now. ”

Li Su turned his head in horror, but saw Hou Junji riding on a horse in a military uniform. Holding him with one hand, his expression was very relaxed, and from time to time he grabbed Li Su's collar and shook his clothes twice.

"Hou ...... General Hou ......, "Li Su is in a hurry, such a faceless posture has made him lose his majesty."

"Huh? What's your name, old man? Hou Junji's eyes narrowed.

"Uncle Hou's Forgiveness ......"

"It's called Uncle! Impertinent bastard thing. The old man is one year older than Cheng Lao Pifu, and he will become an uncle in your mouth, believe it or not, the old man really smoked you? ”

"Uncle Hou, let the little nephew down, if you have something to say!"

Syllable!

Li Su was like an angel who had fallen into the mortal world, his face on the ground.

Hou Junji deviated his legs, got off the horse, raised his horsewhip and pointed at Li Su, and hummed: "Now I will save some face for you in front of your subordinates, and next time I will not be polite, I will smoke first and then speak." ”

Li Su laughed dryly twice, and hurriedly bowed down to salute Hou Junji.

There were a few plops behind him, but he saw Jiang Quantian Renhui and others kneeling on one knee, meeting Hou Jun with a big salute, and said in unison: "The last general will meet General Hou!" ”

"That's it, don't engage in these false etiquette in the military tent, General Ben doesn't pay so much attention to it, get up." Hou Junji returned to his grim and unsmiling appearance, and his expression was extremely majestic.

Li Su pursed his lips, is this guy sick? When they talked to me, they said that I was not polite, and when they told them, they were not so particular......

The famous generals of the Tang Dynasty all have the same face when they are unreasonable, and they are surprisingly consistent.

"Uncle Hou came from afar, the handsome tent has been cleaned, please Uncle Hou ......"

"Fart, please! Ashina, the deputy chief manager, was behind, leading the two of us to the upper floor of Xizhou City to have a look, the old man wanted to know, what kind of ability do you have to defend this city. ”

After saying that, Hou Junji didn't say a word, took Li Su's collar and walked towards Xizhou City, and the generals and guards behind hurriedly followed.

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

The city wall of Xizhou was still the same, and after the war, Li Su had already planned to start repairing it, so when he negotiated with the five merchants, he included the building materials such as bricks, stones, mud and tiles in the additional conditions.

Although there was a plan, the materials are still on the way, and the current Xizhou city wall is still the old rammed earth wall, which looks so dilapidated that it can't be described, so when Hou Junji looked at it, the disgust in his eyes was like seeing his new shoes stepping on a piece of shit......

"Where is the city wall, it's clearly a pigsty...... Hou Junji sighed, and after sighing, he dragged a lengthy tail note: "Pigsty, pigsty......"

Li Su: "............"

If I hadn't been able to beat him, I would have slapped that ugly face a long time ago, can your pigsty accommodate someone as handsome as me?

Climbing the stairs and going up the city tower, Hou Junji stood with his hands in his hands, squinted at the boundless desert in the distance, and then stretched out his hand to grasp the rammed earth of the city wall, and the city wall was immediately grabbed by him A large piece of soil, with a slight force in the palm of his hand, the fine soil particles poured down like raindrops along the cracks of his fingers.

Hou Junji glanced at Li Su with some surprise, and his expression finally became solemn.

"Li Jiawazi, tell me where the enemy attacked the city from the beginning, how many troops the opponent had, and how many defenders there were."

Li Su replied truthfully, Hou Junji nodded while listening, then closed his eyes and muttered for a long time, and finally shook his head and sighed: "If this city is defended by the old man, with the same strength and battle situation, the old man can only defend it for half a month at most, Li family baby, you ...... Very good! ”
