Chapter 191: Heading North

It's useless to complain, Xu Qing is now telling that every day should not be called the earth, so he had to make a few requests to Li Yuan.

First, after Xu Qing went, Li Yuan was responsible for sending people to protect the safety of Xu Qing's family. If Xu Qing's family is lost, then needless to say, the monarch and the minister will definitely not be able to be the one from now on. When the first sentence was said, Li Yuan immediately agreed, and the latter sentence was said by Xu Qing in his heart.

Second, if Xu Qing can't come back, he also asks Li Yuan to take care of the Xu family.

Third, the news that Xu Qing went out of the house should not be mentioned to a few women, even if they asked, they also said that Xu Qing was guarding an important matter in the town now, and he couldn't go out for the time being. It must not be said that Xu Qing went to the north to fight.

Finally, Xu Qing asked Li Yuan to ask for soldiers. Xu counted the troops, lean and good, Li Yuan was not ambiguous, and in the more secret personal soldier in his hand, Long Wei, a team of 100 people was selected and handed over to Xu Qing. This hundred-person team is skilled in bows and horses, extraordinary in swords and guns, and knows everything about reconnaissance and spying, not only that, but it can also make all kinds of ordnance, which basically belongs to the special forces of Datang.

In addition, Li Yuan sent Xu Shiji, Zhang Jin and other generals to the north to control the 100,000 troops in Yingzhou, which had lost its commander. Moreover, led by Xu Shiji, Xu Qing will also cooperate more tacitly. Li Yuan wrote to Youzhou and Bingzhou again, and in order to save this son, he used almost half of the power in his hands. Not only manpower, but also troops.

To save his son, the most sincere person should be Li Yuan?

In the end, Xu Qing also asked Li Yuan for someone, the future general he met in front of Tonghua that day, that is, Xue Rengui. And, of course, two suited armors, some weapons and grass.

Xu Qing went back to Xuanwumen and took the finished adjustable multiples of the monocular, this telescope is called clairvoyance 2.0, compared with clairvoyance 1.0, it is already a lot of progress. First, when you switch to a high magnification, the distance you can see is greatly increased. When you climb high and look at it, you can tell the horses on the horizon in the distance. With a lower lens, you can see it more clearly, and you can see the large characters on the enemy flag from a distance that the enemy cannot see. I don't know if Xue Yantuo's cavalry marched with a flag or not.

With the second generation of clairvoyance, Xu Qing also took a lot of fire. Medicine, it's a pity that the gun made by Xu Qing has not been improved, but it has only made a relatively long tube and a large bore. The commander can gather energy, increase the range, and increase the power if the chamber is large, Xu Qing has not really fought in actual combat, so he hesitated very much, but fortunately, no one else knows what Xu Qing is holding.

In addition, Xu Qing also called Zhuge Yan and Wei Xian, who were still sleeping, and told them many little things and told them how to deceive a few girls. Subsequently, with the hundred-person Long Wei who rushed over and Xue Rengui with a blindfolded face, they rushed to Yingzhou in the north.

Early the next morning, there was one less person in Chang'an City, that is, Xu Qing. Disappeared so completely, without a trace, without a sound. The second child couldn't adapt, and always pestered Wan Guifei to ask, where did Xu Qing go, was he belittled by the emperor's father, the emperor's father is a big villain.

Concubine Wan knew a little bit of the details, but because she went out when Li Yuan gave the order, she didn't know everything. I didn't dare to talk nonsense, so I said to the second Xiaodao, Xu Qing went to the mountains, and gave your imperial father a treasure, and he could come back in a month.

And the soldiers of the Xuanwu Gate are not adaptable. When he was standing guard, he could no longer see Xu Qing holding a cup, golden, shining in the morning sun, and then Xu Qing rinsed his mouth with mint salt water in that dazzling light. On the roof of Xuanwu Gate, I couldn't see the crooked boxers hanging by Xu Qing fluttering in the wind.

What's even more unaccustomed is that for a full month, I didn't see Xu Qinglai to let them compete. They are all talking about whether General Xu is scared by us, and there are more and more people who pass the customs every time. Of course, because Xu Qing improved the level of food, they didn't notice that unconsciously, many "lumps" bulged out of their bodies, which were much stronger than a month ago. By the time Xu Qing came back, the 3,000 people under him had already become 3,000 T-800s, which was not too cool.

Rushing day and night, Xu Qing and the hundred-person team didn't have time to talk and get to know each other. During the day, Xu Qing rode a horse, and at night, he found a post station, did not sleep, but changed the carriage and continued to hurry. Just sleeping in a bumpy carriage, at first I couldn't sleep, and then one snored louder than the other. A few days later, Xu Qing and Xue Rengui also had headaches and buttocks, and their bodies seemed to fall apart.

This is still a war, this can't beat a mouse, if the mouse is bigger, like a vole, it can directly give Xu Qinglai an over-the-shoulder fall.

Fortunately, there were plenty of horses along the way, and although the butt was hurt, it was still at the destination. It seems that there are many and good horses in this line of post stations, which are not at all like those post stations that Xu Qing passed by in Jiangnan. Xu Qing thought to himself, this is the main road connecting the unfriendly border in the center, so he bothered to arrange the horses.

In the past few days, although we have been on the road, when we eat, everyone still took a break and said a few words. Long Wei is Li Yuan's close guard, and he has more military aircraft than Xu Qing, Xu Qing is their current head, and they naturally have to tell Xu Qing about the prince's siege.

Xu Qing knew that the news that the prince led the troops to go deep had come a few days earlier. It was the 100,000 urgent letter that Xu Qing saw before he met Xue Rengui in front of Tonghua Gate, which was written by his helpless subordinates after the prince sent troops.

will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected. Moreover, although Li Jiancheng's talent for leading troops is not as high as Li Shimin's, he has also experienced a hundred battles over the years. Therefore, Li Yuan believed that the prince's dispatch of troops this time must have been considered, so he put aside the news and did not even say it at the court meeting. Until now, Li Yuan received the news that the prince was besieged.

"General, forty miles ahead is Yingzhou, and there is a post station in it, but that post station is too small and there are not many good horses." A black-helmeted general walked up to Xu Qing and arched his hand: "So, we have to leave with all our horsepower, otherwise we won't have enough horses on the grassland." ”

Xu Qing didn't have the strength to speak, but nodded. The black-helmeted general said again: "General, let's not enter Yingzhou City, there must be a lot of spies planted by the enemy, so let's not go in." ”

Xu Qing nodded weakly again.

Seeing this, the general stopped talking, but found a place to sit down and eat dry food quietly. Although Xue Rengui has also ridden the horse for so many days, he has adapted to it, and now not only does he not feel pain, but he is also alive and well, Xu Qingxin said, he really deserves to be the general's material, so he used it as a guard.

Xue Rengui brought water, Xu Qing took a sip, and finally recovered a little spirit, and said weakly to the black-helmet general: "Send someone to Yingzhou City to buy a large batch of white linen." ”
