Chapter 891: Please fight
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Li Tong looked at Wu Han in surprise, His Majesty didn't let him say, what does this mean? Wu Han pondered for a moment, pulled Li Tong to sit down, and carefully explained His Majesty's plan to attack Hanzhong, and then he said helplessly: "This battle needs to be deepened
Hanzhong, with the weak to fight the strong, can be described as dangerous, only the generals who are good at fighting have a chance of winning, but the generals in the DPRK are all under the monitoring of Gongsun Shu's eyeliner, the slightest change will definitely make Gongsun Shu vigilant, so ......"
"Therefore, the commander who can command this strange army must not only have rich experience, but also have the ability to command thousands of troops and horses, and at the same time, the reputation of leading troops to fight is not too big!" Li Tong answered.
Wu Handa nodded and said, "Dimension is right! ”
Li Tong slapped him, this candidate was simply tailor-made for himself.
If you want to talk about the ability to lead troops to fight, he is the veteran who followed His Majesty and raised troops in Chungling to fight against him, and he has experienced so many battles of life and death, and he has already honed his ability to stand alone.
During Liu Xiu's campaign in Hebei, Li Tong was still the king of Xiping under Liu Xuan's hands, so it can be said that Liu Xiu laid down Hebei and laid the foundation of Hebei, and Li Tong did not make any efforts.
It wasn't until Liu Xiuding's capital Luoyang that Li Tong took Liu Boji and came to Liu Xiu. After switching to Liu Xiu's command, Li Tong did not serve in the army, but directly became a guard lieutenant, which was several years, whether it was the Western Expedition, the Southern Expedition, the Eastern Expedition, or the Northern Expedition, the Luoyang Imperial Court had nothing to do with Li Tong, Li Tong has always stayed in Luoyang, giving
Liu Xiu's palace is the 'chief of the nursing home'.
Therefore, if you want to talk about the fame of the generals in the army, Li Tong can't say that he can't be at the front, he is basically in the bottom position. No matter how closely Gongsun Shu monitored the generals who were good at fighting in Luoyang, he couldn't monitor his Li Tong's head.
In Li Tong's opinion, he was the best person to lead this strange army and attack Yancen in Hanzhong.
Looking at Li Tong, whose eyes were bright, Wu Han shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Dimension, if you die of this heart, Your Majesty will not agree to your going, even if Your Majesty agrees, Princess Ningping will not agree." ”
Li Tong blinked, he couldn't drink this wine anymore, he suddenly thought of something, patted his head, and said: "Duke Wu, the last general suddenly thought that there was still an urgent matter to deal with, so he said goodbye first!" ”
Wu Han frowned and said, "Dimension, what are you anxious about!" No matter how important it is, we will do it when we finish drinking! ”
Li Tong waved his hand and said: "It is indeed an urgent matter, the end of today will be disrespectful, another day, the end of the general will definitely have a banquet for Gong Wu." ”
Seeing that Li Tong had made up his mind, Wu Han showed a helpless look, and said unhappily: "Go, go, one by one, there are things to do, why don't I have so many things!" ”
He came out of Deng Yu's house because Deng Yu received urgent military affairs and had to deal with it.
Li Tong smiled at Wu Han, said goodbye, turned around and walked away quickly.
He left the wine house and did not go home, but went directly to the palace to ask to see Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu was having dinner, and at this time Li Tong suddenly came, which made him feel quite inexplicable.
According to the time calculation, I came here at this time, obviously to rub food. Liu Xiu wiped the corners of his mouth and said to Zhang Kun, "Please come in." ”
After a while, Li Tong strode in from outside. "Your Majesty!" Li Tong gave Liu Xiushen a salute.
Liu Xiule beckoned and said, "It's better to come early than to come by coincidence, dimension, come on, come on, sit down and let's eat together." ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen has already eaten, and he just had a meal with Da Sima in the wine house."
"Oh!" Liu Xiu said: "Even if you have eaten, sit down and accompany me to eat again." ”
Li Tong did not refuse, walked to Liu Xiu's hand, and knelt down. Soon, a waiter stepped forward, first placing a small square table in front of him, and then bringing dishes one after another at the back.
Liu Xiu's diet is not very luxurious, and of course it is not enough to eat pickles and gnocchi, it is the diet of ordinary rich and noble people, if you want to say that it is different, it is that the skills of the imperial chef are far better than ordinary people.
Seeing Li Tong sitting there, eating absentmindedly, Liu Xiu put down his chopsticks and asked with a smile: "Is there something wrong with Ji Yuan entering the palace to see me?" ”
"Uh......" Li Tong hesitated, not speaking immediately.
Liu Xiu smiled: "Dimension, what's the matter, but it's okay to say it." ”
Li Tong was heartbroken, and whether he sold Wu Han or not, he said: "Weichen heard that His Majesty plans to send a surprise army to attack the Yancen Department stationed in Hanzhong. ”
Liu Xiu was stunned, how did the dimension know about this? After thinking about it, he immediately understood that Ji Yuan had just been drinking with Ziyan, and now he ran to the palace to see him, and this matter must have been said to him by Ziyan.
He didn't hide Li Tong, nodded, and said: "It's true, but I can't find a suitable candidate for a while......
Before he finished speaking, Li Tong got up, bowed his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, this battle is willing to go!" ”
Liu Xiu knew that since Li Tong mentioned this matter, he must have come to ask for help. He stood up and walked out. Li Tong hurriedly followed Liu Xiu and walked out of the hall with him.
In the courtyard outside, Liu Xiu said slowly: "Bo Ji is very dissatisfied with the transformation of the dimension from a guard captain to a former general, and he even came to the palace to find me. ”
Li Tong's eyes flashed, and his face showed surprise, he really didn't know about this matter. He bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't know, wait for Weichen to return home......"
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Don't blame Bo Ji, Bo Ji is also out of good intentions." She is worried that you are weak and sick, and you can't stand the suffering in the army. ”
Li Tong sighed lightly and said: "Your Majesty knows, back then, Weichen also followed Your Majesty, starting from the small soldiers at the bottom, step by step to today. "What kind of hardship has he not suffered, what kind of danger has he not experienced?
Liu Xiu said with a smile: "But now the dimension is no longer a small soldier, but a big man's horse, a dignified Gu Shihou, and an official worshipping a former general!" ”
"Your Majesty......"
Liu Xiu continued: "Later, Bo Ji also accepted your transfer to a former general, but she put forward another condition, that is, she would not let you go to Shu to fight. ”
Li Tong looked puzzled. Liu Xiu explained: "I heard Bo Ji say that she once asked Ziling to divinate a hexagram for you, saying that you lack water in the five elements, and it is better to be south than north, and east to west is not west. ”
Hearing this, Li Tong almost laughed, what is the reason for this? Based on this alone, His Majesty didn't choose himself to be the chief general of the crusade against Yancen? He said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, how can you take the words of fate seriously? ”
Liu Xiu said meaningfully: "Liu Xiu's troops can't catch him, and the four Yi gather in the dragon and fight the wilderness, and the fire is the main thing on the fourth and seventh days." ”
Don't believe in fate? But sometimes, these mysterious things will really work. When "Chifu Fu" appeared, there was no Liu Xiu, but "Chifu Fu" could accurately predict that Liu Xiu would be the emperor.
So the erudite Liu Xin calculated the pi at 3.15, which was called Liu Xin by later generations, and he also believed in the proverbs in "Chifu Fu", so he did not hesitate to change his name to Liu Xiu.
Can you really say that these metaphysics are nonsense?
Of course, Li Tong understood what Liu Xiu meant, and he said with a straight face: "If people's lives are already doomed, then Weichen can't avoid it if he wants to, Your Majesty, let Weichen go to this battle!" ”
Liu Xiu's brows tightened, and he pondered for a long time, and he said slowly: "Let me think about it again!" ”
Li Tong understands Liu Xiu's personality, and if he thinks about it, he will definitely be out of play!
He scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, and said, "Your Majesty, there is no one more suitable than Weichen!" Your Majesty, Wechen is willing to make a military order, if this battle cannot be won, Wechen is willing to be dealt with by military law! ”
Liu Xiu was not worried that Li Tong would not be able to win, but worried that he would not be able to come back alive.
Looking at Li Tong, who remembered that his face was flushed, Liu Xiu smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said: "Bo Ji has already reminded me that I can't let you go to Shudi, if I send you to Hanzhong, how can I explain to Bo Ji?" ”
Li Tong was silent for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, you can say that I am going to Nanyang Tuntian." "At present, Nanjun is fighting, Nanyang is adjacent to Nanjun, and there are soldiers and horses in Nanyang Tuntian in case of emergency, which is also reasonable.
Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically, "Is the dimension asking me to lie to Boji?" ”
Li Tong frowned and said, "Your Majesty, this battle is a must-go!" "In the Luoyang Imperial Court, Li Tong is definitely one of the high-ranking and powerful ministers, but the embarrassing thing is that the establishment of the Luoyang Imperial Court has nothing to do with him.
At the beginning, it was Liu Xiu who led Deng Yu, Wu Han, Geng Yi, Feng Yi, Gai Yan, Cho Qi, Ma Wu and others to lay the foundation of Hebei and establish the foundation of the Han Dynasty.
He didn't do anything, and as soon as he arrived in Luoyang, he was named the Marquis of Gushi, appointed as the captain of the guard, and ranked as the ninth secretary.
In private, many people say that Li Tong has no ability, and the reason why he can be a guard captain is only because he was lucky, married a good lady, and became the brother-in-law of the Son of Heaven and the concubine of the court.
Li Tong has heard these statements, but he never refutes them, and if he doesn't refute them, it doesn't mean that he didn't take it to heart.
Li Tong has always held back a wave of resentment in his heart, and has been looking for an opportunity to prove his ability, and this sneak attack on Yancen in Hanzhong is a good opportunity that he has been waiting for.
Liu Xiu thought about it again and again, raised his eyes to look at Li Tong, and asked, "Dimension, have you really thought it through?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Tong nodded heavily.
Liu Xiu squinted his glasses and said, "In this battle, I can only send you 30,000 soldiers and horses at most!" ”
When Li Tong heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he bowed down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, do you know how many soldiers and horses there are under Yancen?" Li Tong shook his head. Liu Xiu Zhengse said: "There are no less than 50,000 people. After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Going deep into the enemy's territory, fighting 50,000 with 30,000, it is extremely dangerous, and Gongsun Shu of Chengdu may transfer troops into Hanzhong at any time to reinforce Yancen, this battle is not simple!" "Liu Xiu is not deliberately scaring Li Tong, what he said is the truth, and he is also reminding Li Tong, don't think that this battle is easy to win, don't think that Yancen was beaten by Cen Peng, you can win a big victory if you go
He, Yan Cen himself is a very capable general, not to mention, there is now a Gongsun Shu behind him.
After listening to Liu Xiu's words, Li Tong said with a positive color: "Your Majesty, if you don't win this battle, you should go back to your Majesty!" ”
Liu Xiu supported his forehead, and he now didn't know whether it was right or wrong for him to agree to let Li Tong go on the expedition.
He was silent for a moment, and said quietly: "Dimension, this battle can be fought, if it can't be fought, it must not be forced, and it is necessary to withdraw the troops in time and withdraw from Hanzhong." ”
Li Tong said disappreciatively: "In this battle, if Weichen is not successful, he will become benevolent!" ”
"......" Liu Xiu was afraid that Li Tong would go with the psychology of fighting to the death.
He frowned, looked at Li Tong with deep eyes, and said word by word: "I just want you to come back alive, I don't want to see the soldiers come back with your corpse!" Li Tong was silent, and after a while, he suddenly knelt on his knees, kowtowed forward, and said, "Weichen...... Won't disappoint Your Majesty! Not to ...... Shame on Becky! ”
