Chapter 189: Xue Rengui's warning

Although Xue Rengui didn't intend to exert power, even if it was just the bloody aura that burst out at that moment, it was not something that a lowly person like Liu Bantou could afford, poor Liu Bantou was startled, and the lantern in his hand had already been taken off, but before the lantern landed, he saw a big hand stretched out like lightning, holding the handle of the lantern steadily, and the huge lantern only flickered slightly, and then stopped trembling.

"Good kung fu, hey, you ......"

Xue Rengui was thinking about the gains and losses of the battle of Dafeichuan before, and he didn't notice the arrival of Liu Bantou at all, so he burst out in shock, although he quickly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly reined in, but it was too late, but he didn't expect that a small "tragedy" would be inevitable. Although there were occasional former colleagues who came to visit, but no one talked to him about the war situation, and he did not know that Li Xian had been ordered to come to control the army.

"I've seen General Xue."

Li Xian didn't want to reveal his identity in front of Liu Bantou, so he smiled and gave Xue Rengui a look, and then bowed.

"Oh."

Xue Rengui is a general of a hundred battles, and his observation is outstanding, but when he saw Li Xian behaving like this, how could he not know that Li Xian didn't want his identity to be revealed, so he spoke lightly and stopped the general's blurted out.

"Annoyed Liu Bantou to open the prison door, well, by the way, I will go with the shackles on General Xue's body." Li Xian finished saluting, looked sideways at Liu Bantou, who was stunned, and commanded gently.

"Ah, yes, little one obeys."

Although Liu Bantou was surprised by Li Xian's skills, and even more surprised by Li Xian's origin and identity, although he couldn't guess it, he knew that Li Xian's origin was by no means something that he could resist as a small cell boss, so even if Li Xian's request to remove the shackles on Xue Rengui's body was suspected of violating the system, he didn't dare to have any objections, so he could only respond respectfully, hurriedly took off the key string on his waist, and hurriedly followed Li Xian's instructions.

"The criminal officer Xue Rengui has seen His Royal Highness King Zhou."

Xue Rengui was a cautious person, and he waited until Liu Bantou retired, and then he meticulously bowed to him.

"General Xue doesn't have to be polite, Gu Nai came here with his father's secret edict, and there are some things that need General Xue's help or two, and please sit down and talk." Li Xian returned the salute with a smile, and then, regardless of the mess of thatch on the ground, he lifted the hem of his robe and sat down behind the little ones.

"The prisoner obeys."

Seeing Li Xian's words, a hint of suspicion flashed in Xue Rengui's eyes, but he didn't ask too much, and after confessing his guilt, he cautiously sat opposite Li Xian, listening respectfully.

"General Xue has been wronged these days, and his father is also quite worried in Beijing, so he specially ordered Xiao Wang to come to greet the general."

By the dim light of the oil lamp, Li Xianzi could see that Xue Rengui was obviously much older and haggard than last year, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

"The offender lost his teacher and humiliated the country, and he was ashamed of his saint's grace, and he was ashamed of his landlessness, a capital crime, a capital crime."

Xue Rengui has fought countless battles in his life, but this defeat, every time he thinks about it, he is inexplicably frustrated, and regrets that he should not have ignored Li Xian's opinion at the beginning, and mistakenly believed that Guo was to be sealed, so that there was such a big defeat, at this time facing Li Xian, there was already some guilt, and then when he heard that Gaozong still remembered the old feelings, his mood suddenly stirred, and there were tears flashing in the tiger's eyes, and he hurriedly lowered his head in disguise, and thanked him in a trembling voice.

"General Xue, my father knows that the crime of this war is not in the general, however, the court has its own laws, and my father is not easy to disobey, and after discussion, the general is afraid that he will have to suffer some grievances." Li Xian pondered his tone and spoke slowly.

"The criminal officer has the holy grace of His Majesty, and he is ashamed of the 100,000 dead robes, the criminal official knows that he is guilty, and he really does not dare to ask His Majesty for extrajudicial mercy, if he can die to apologize, the criminal official may be able to feel at ease, and the criminal official ......" Thinking of the 100,000 soldiers who were heroic in the service, Xue Rengui's eyes instantly turned red, and two lines of tears flowed down involuntarily, kneeling on the thatch, choking and admitting his guilt.

"General Xue doesn't have to blame himself for this, the reason for this defeat is that my father knows it, and today I want Gu to come, it is for this reason, General Xue, please take a look." Seeing that Xue Rengui was sad like this, the corners of Li Xian's eyes couldn't help but moisten slightly, his right hand was raised weakly, signaling Xue Rengui to be flat, and his left hand reached into his arms, took out a small letter, and handed it to Xue Rengui.

"Your Highness, this is ......"

Xue Rengui was in a state of emotion, when he suddenly saw Li Xian handing over a letter, he couldn't help but be stunned, looked at Li Xian suspiciously, and asked hesitantly.

"General Xue will know if you see it."

Li Xianzi knew what was inside, but he didn't say it, but nodded cautiously in response.

"Your Majesty, I have failed you, Your Majesty ......"

As soon as he heard Li Xian say this, Xue Rengui hesitated slightly, but hesitantly took the letter with both hands, and when he saw it, he burst into tears, turned around and knelt to the east and kowtowed repeatedly, his emotions were obviously out of control.

Tsk, who said that our old man would not be the emperor, look, to do the business of buying people's hearts, is that a very old method, such a whole, Xue Rengui still has to work hard to serve the dead? Li Xian had already received Gaozong's instructions before he came, and he knew that in addition to some words of consolation, the letter only listed some money, money and the person who kept it, and instructed Xue Rengui to send his family to collect it, thinking that it was for the purpose of atonement.

"General Xue, my father has another explanation."

Li Xian waited for a long time with emotion, until Xue Rengui's mood stabilized a little, and then he said calmly.

"Please make it clear to Your Highness that the offender is indisobedient!"

Xue Rengui was immersed in his infinite gratitude to Gaozong at this time, and his response was extremely resolute.

"It's good that General Xue can have this heart, well, let's put it this way, there are two explanations from my father, one is what General Xue already knows, as for the second, that is to order Gu to control the armies, and personally conquer Tuguhun, the time may be these two days, and please ask General Xue to tell me about the experience of the previous battle, and thank you first." Li Xian pressed his hand, signaling Xue Rengui not to be too excited, and then he unhurriedly told the news.

"Huh?"

As soon as he heard this news, Xue Rengui was taken aback, his eyes were round, and he looked at Li Xian with a face full of surprise, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"General Xue heard it right, there is only one purpose for this battle, that is, to recover the four towns of Anxi, and the plan is so ......" Li Xian nodded solemnly to show affirmation, and then came out with the overall battle plan he had formulated by himself, although it was only a general action strategy, but the boldness and arrogance of the combat idea made Xue Rengui so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Although His Royal Highness's strategy is a little more dangerous, but there is a feasible way, but the offender does not approve of His Highness personally taking risks, if there is a case, how to explain to His Majesty, according to the offender's opinion, Li Jinxing and his people are both superior in martial arts and courage, and it may be competent to lead the army to attack behind the enemy, and please think twice." Xue Rengui was stunned for a while before he shook his head and said earnestly.

"What General Xue said is reasonable, Gu originally also considered General Li and his people, but after repeated calculations, this battle still has to be done by himself, otherwise, it may be difficult to mobilize the Tubo army, which is not conducive to the battle of Anxi." Li Xian knew how dangerous it was to be alone behind enemy lines, but except for Li Xian himself, it was difficult for others to make the whole army of the Tubo people dispatch, not for anything else, just because Li Xian was wearing a big hat of "prince" on his head.

"Alas, I'm so afraid that it will be hard for His Royal Highness, if the official does not make a mistake, His Royal Highness He Lao will make this dangerous mistake, and the official ......" Xue Rengui is a general, and he is proficient in strategy and tactics, so he doesn't know what the key to this battle is, the reason why he suggested to change people is just to worry about Li Xian's safety.

"This battle is imminent, I don't know what General Xue has to tell me?" Li Xian was worried about the upcoming war, and he really didn't want to make any more detours, so he asked a question.

"Your Royal Highness Mingjian, according to the offender's view, although the Tubo infantry cavalry has a considerable place, however, are not defeated by my ** elite, its cavalry is brave and unstrategic, there is no battle formation at all, every time there is a war, only know the wild rush, its infantry is generally heavy armor foot soldiers, the combat power is quite strong, but the movement is slow, and not the enemy of my Mo sword formation, the same military strength and fighting, Tubo will be defeated, only with several times the strength of the army can compete with our army, this is common sense, there is no need to offend the official to say more, if His Royal Highness is not greedy for merit, a small victory will be returned, when it is safe, if the war is delayed, Then you need to be careful of one person! Xue Rengui stopped when he said this, and after his face twitched for a moment, he continued word by word: "Gar Qinling! ”

It's him! Li Xian is as familiar with the name of Gar Qinling as thunder, not only because he has just led the army to defeat Xue Rengui, but also because Li Xian knows that in his previous life, this person has invaded the Tang Dynasty many times, and has repeatedly defeated the Tang Dynasty's strong army, known as the first general in Tubo, and is known as the "God of War" in Tubo. It was precisely in order to get some useful information from Xue Rengui's mouth, and when he heard Xue Rengui report this person's name at this time, Li Xian's spirit suddenly lifted, and his eyes instantly lit up......
