The group walked majestically in the direction of Li Jiaji, and Li Siyuan on the side of Echo Valley only left 2,000 villagers to prevent Tu Shi from suddenly killing a horse gun!

When he returned home, Li Siyuan was naturally warmly welcomed by his family, and his father, mother and wife circled around him one by one, and saw that he was not injured, let alone missing arms and legs, which was a relief!

* The news of zero casualties to scare off the 40,000 Turkic soldiers spread in the village, and every family slaughtered chickens and sheep to comfort the soldiers, and at the same time praised Li Siyuan for using soldiers like a god, and he was quite a general at a young age!

Captain Chi Gong of the celebration banquet walked to Li Siyuan with a bowl of wine and patted him on the shoulder: "You kid really has a bad stomach, and you can come up with a way to use a scarecrow to pretend to be a soldier, it's really bad, but I like it, haha....., come, the old man toasts you!" ”

Rubbing his sore shoulders, Li Siyuan wanted to pay her a few words in return, this is not called a bad stomach, this is called a soldier who is not tired of cheating, but he does not dare to talk back to these battle-hardened veterans, he knows that these people are happy to call your son and nephew, and if you are unhappy, your backhand is a slap, and you are helpless against him!

With a stomach full of grievances, Li Siyuan also picked up a glass of wine: "Don't dare to ask the old general to toast!" I'll still toast you, if it weren't for the old general leading troops to support, with my little strength, it wouldn't be enough for people to stuff their teeth! I won't say anything about gratitude, I'll do it first! With that, he threw up his neck and drank the whole bowl of wine.

Old Wei Chi was not ambiguous, followed by Li Siyuan was also a bowl of wine, he wiped his mouth and said: "I have long heard of your poetry, and I thought that you are the same as those literati and ink writers, you are all twists and turns, I didn't expect you to be quite bold, just rely on your boldness, you will also be my old Wei Chi's nephew in the future, if you encounter any trouble in Chang'an, just talk to me, no matter what trouble, I can settle it for you!" ”

Unconsciously, Li Siyuan had another backer, he hurriedly bowed down and thanked the old general, and his parents and wives around him also hurriedly got up to thank the old general for his love!

The real war is not over yet, and it is naturally impossible to have enough drinks, but the food can indeed be eaten openly, and after everyone is full, Wei Chigong mysteriously pulled Li Siyuan to the study.

"Boy, what do you think about the peace with Jieli tomorrow? Although we are about the same strength as theirs now, they are mostly cavalry, but we are mainly infantry, so if we really fight, it will definitely be bad for us! You kid has a lot of ideas, just tell me what you think! Wei Chigong looked at Li Siyuan expectantly.

"Your Majesty is actually here to discuss peace, and Your Majesty is naturally in charge of everything, and it is useless for us to worry." Li Siyuan said with a big grin: "As for fighting? The old general can rest assured, he will definitely not be able to fight! ”

"Are you so sure?"

"Tu Shi has retreated and left, Jieli is not stupid, it is impossible for him to make a defeat with us, and finally let the Western Turks pick up a big bargain!"

After listening to Li Siyuan's analysis, Wei Chigong relieved himself: "What you said is quite reasonable, the old man can sleep peacefully now!" After that, he went back to sleep with a smile on his face.

After sending Wei Chigong away, Li Siyuan handled official business in the study for a while, then yawned and returned to his bedroom, as soon as he opened the door, a figure jumped into his arms and startled him!

When he saw that it was his wife, he patted Li Sisi on the back funny: "Okay, it's okay, haven't I come back, you don't know your husband's ability, for example, they only have 40,000 people, even if they have 400,000 people, it is impossible to hurt me at all!" ”

After speaking, he tried to push his wife out of his arms, but he didn't succeed, and he didn't dare to push too hard, for fear of hurting the child in Li Sisi's belly, so he could only say helplessly: "You let go of your hand first, let's go to bed and talk!" ”

Li Sisi didn't let go, hid in his arms and choked and said: "I just won't let go, you don't know how I came over this day, the whole heart has been raised in my throat!" I'm going to hold you now, I'm going to hold you all the time! ”

Smelling the faint aroma coming from his wife's hair, Li Siyuan was helpless and happy, he gently patted his choked wife, not knowing how to comfort her, but this also happened to confirm such a sentence, at this time silence is better than sound, after a while, Li Sisi lying in Li Siyuan's arms was no longer choked, and his breathing gradually stabilized, Li Siyuan knew that his wife, who had been worried all day, had fallen asleep, he gently carried his wife back to the bed, and then hugged his wife and fell asleep with a smile.

Before dawn on the second day, Li Siyuan began to get up, he got dressed and kissed his sleeping wife first, and then walked out of the door and began to inspect the barracks.

Weishui Bridge, also known as the Temporary Bridge, is in the south of Li Jiaji, if you ride a fast horse for a few hours, you can arrive, but the march of the army takes half a day, so he has to get up early and prepare early.

When he came to the barracks, the army was cooking on the fire, and Wei Chigong had already gotten up early, and he was there, urging the soldiers to speed up, so that the army could meet Li Shimin in advance!

"General Wei Chi, good morning, everything is ready?" Li Siyuan greeted warmly.

Seeing Li Siyuan coming, Wei Chigong complained: "What's good, these stinky boys, they are grinding to eat some food, they really don't know how to be in a hurry!" ”

Li Siyuan didn't argue with him, just laughed twice, and then picked up a rice bowl with Wei Chigong and had breakfast with the soldiers!

In ancient times, marching and fighting was not as simple as imagined, Li Siyuan This was the first time he went out in a real sense, and he finally realized how difficult it was to march and fight.

Not to mention anything else, just the armor worn by the soldiers, the dry food and weapons they carry, etc., I am afraid that they will weigh dozens of pounds, and they are not only so simple as carrying, but also participating in the rapid march and preparing for war at any time!

After a busy morning, the soldiers and horses were ready, and the army of 10,000 people, there were 5,000 people in the rear, most of them were conscripted people, but there were also some veterans and minor injuries.

Looking at the mighty team, Li Siyuan knew why everyone said that fighting a war was a matter of labor and money! This is only a small-scale war, and the manpower and material resources spent are already countless, it seems that in the future, I have to advise Li Shimin to fight as few battles as possible, otherwise, no matter how strong the empire is, it will not be able to withstand such a toss!
