Chapter 3 Drop by

After Yang Zixu heard this, he straightened up suddenly, and his fatigue dissipated instantly.

It made him sober up more than hearing the word "old lady" below. The lazy color in his eyes dissipated cleanly, and he exhaled a deep breath of turbidity.

"In Xia Yang Zixu, the scholar of the Yang family in the eastern capital." Yang Zixu tidied up his messy clothes and said.

Li Fu was stunned, although he was not from the Eastern Capital, he still knew the Yang family in Yang Zixu's mouth.

There is only one Yang family in the eastern capital - Tianyu Divine General's Mansion, Yang Tianwolf's family.

Since Emperor Taizong ascended the throne on that night 800 years ago, there has always been a saying in the Tang army that there are four candidates and eight generals.

The four candidates refer to the four martial marquis of the Tang Dynasty, and the eight generals refer to the eight generals who helped Taizong ascend to the throne that year. After 800 years of inheritance, only three of the current Yagami generals are the families of the original generals. The rest of them were all god generals who were later canonized.

And the Yang family in Yang Zixu's mouth is the Yang family that has been rumored to be living in the three families so far.

"My name is Li Fu, and I'm from Liangzhou." Li Fu was a little surprised by Yang Zixu's identity.

"Liangzhou? The south, there are still a lot of good beauties in the south. Yang Zi said with a false smile.

"Yes." Li Fu thought about it, indeed, the winter in the eastern capital is really much colder than in the south.

"Why did you just say that Rong Di didn't survive this harsh winter?" Yang Zixu's eyes narrowed slightly, he had just woken up for a while, and he hadn't yet adapted to the noon sun.

"Rongdi is located in the north, the climate is different from my Datang, and the harsh winter in the north is much colder than in my Datang. And their soldiers are good at fighting in the harsh winter, and Rong Di will not be defeated so quickly in the winter no matter how bad he is. I remember that the same was true of the Shence Mansion last winter, and after the fall, it was never able to shake Rong Di in the slightest. Li Fu thought about it and said it according to what he thought in his heart.

Yang Zi thought about it for a while, and it was true. Last year, when the Shence Mansion fought against Rong Di in Northern Xinjiang, it had always had a great advantage in stabilizing Rong Di. But when the heavy snow came in winter, several counterattacks launched by Rong Di made the Shence Mansion unable to parry, and the troops were lost, so they had to retreat back to Linguan to rest.

But this year, Tiance Mansion received the order from the imperial court in October, and at that time, the north had already begun to enter winter, and it was not normal to repel Rong Di in just three months.

"How did you judge that Rong Di shouldn't have been defeated in the winter?" Yang Zixu stretched out his head from the house and looked at Li Fu. Then I felt that something was wrong, and said, "You wait for me."

“?”

Yang Zixu quickly closed the window, and Li Fu only heard a chaotic sound next door, accompanied by two sneezes.

After a while, there was a knock on Li Fu's door. In front of the door was a handsome young man, dressed in a white brocade robe, his hair was neatly combed, and an extremely warm jade hung from his waist. The eyebrows and eyes are handsome, gentle and elegant.

"What? Aren't I welcome to come in and sit? Yang Zixu looked at Li Fu standing in front of him, and did not get out of the way, quipping.

"No, no, I'm just...."Li Fu hurriedly welcomed Yang Zixu into the room and said awkwardly.

"I just didn't recognize it for a while, did I?" Yang Zixu took over the words and said with a smile.

That's true, the long shirt just now was scattered all over his body, and he didn't look awake, and his hair was shrunk in the quilt because he was sleeping. It's a mess. It's like this.

Yang Zixu himself knew what he looked like just now, and took Li Fu's words to avoid embarrassment.

Yang Zixu looked around Li Fu's room, which was very tidy. However, the ancient books on the table attracted Yang Zixu's attention, the pages had been yellowed, and there were still some fragments in the corners of one side, which were left by reading for a long time. The binding thread is a kind of silver thread produced in the southern Annan County, and this kind of silk thread is generally used in the major holy academies and schools in the eastern capital. It is not easy for ordinary people to see it, so it can be seen that this book is very important to his master.

Only a few water stains on the paper are a little dazzling, and it looks like it has just been printed.

"Have a cup of tea." Li Fu carefully lifted the re-boiled water from the stove, and then took out the camellia he had brought and brewed it.

"Good tea~ There seems to be a faint cloud of air in the mouth when you enter it, where is this tea?" Yang Zi tasted it faintly and nodded.

"Coarse tea in the mountains and wilderness can't be on the table." Li Fu took a sip and said with a smile.

This tea was picked by the master from the cliff wall behind Daoxiang Village, and it was only seven taels of tea a year. It is said that it is coarse tea in the mountains and fields, and it is not wrong.

"I didn't expect there to be such a superb tea in the mountains, I don't think this tea is much worse than the half box of 'dewdrops' treasured in the Daming Palace." Yang Zixu was full of praise for the tea in his hand, and drank the small half cup of tea slowly with his eyes closed.

Yang Shizi praised falsely. Tea in the mountains and wilderness can not be compared with the royal treasure. Li Fu put the water in the cup, shook his head and smiled.

"The things of the royal family are naturally excellent, but not all the treasures of the Tang Dynasty are in the palace." Yang Zi owed himself and thanked Li Fu.

Then he changed to a more comfortable position and sat on the futon, and said, "Rong Di was defeated this time, what do you think?" ”

Li Fu stirred the charcoal fire in the furnace, was silent for a moment, and said: "The Rong Di people are far more resistant to the cold of the northern Xinjiang than my Tang Dynasty soldiers, whether it is Rong Di's war horses or soldiers. A few days ago, on my way to the Eastern Capital, I heard that 30,000 soldiers in the Tiance army were attacked by Rong Di in the pass, which led to the loss of the pass. If you think about it, Yongguan is the land of heavy hammers in the northwest, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Rong Di can capture this important town even if the siege equipment is not complete. And why has the same Cambrian Pass been under the siege of Rong Di for a long time? It shows that Rong Di's attack on my Tang Dynasty this time is not for the city and land. Coupled with the good news I just heard today, it confirmed my conjecture even better. Li Fu looked at Yang Zixu's confused face, understood that he was not completely clear, touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment, and then said

"Rong Di sent troops in the winter three years ago, when it was the Yuling Army that guarded the northern frontier, although the current Yuling Army's combat strength cannot be compared with before, but it is no problem to defend it for a month, and behind the Yuling Army is the right wing army of Shence stationed in Wancheng. Even if the Feather Spirit Army was defeated, then Rong Di's combat power at that time was definitely not the opponent of the Divine Ce Army. But here's the problem, when the Yuling Army suffered the first wave of defeats, the Shence Army did not dare to support immediately, but waited and watched from a distance of less than a hundred miles, and waited until the Yuling Army was defeated by Rong Di for the second time before leading the army into the northern defense line. At that time, it was already winter. In the winter of the first year, Rong Di easily took most of the northern Xinjiang defense line, and the three important towns were firmly in his hands. However, the Shence army suffered heavy losses, and a third of the right-wing army died on the battlefield in northern Xinjiang. It's not easy to get to the beginning of spring, and this is a good time to attack Rong Di, but the Shence Army didn't say anything. In the end, it was not until His Majesty was furious and issued three imperial decrees in a row that he slowly began to recover the northern defense line. However, it is very strange that Rong Di did not have too much entanglement with the Shence Mansion that year, and Shence easily recovered some places that were not very important, while some places were directly bypassed and did not entangle too much. ”

Li Fu picked up the cup in his hand and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

was said by Li Fu, and some details that were originally ignored in the Northwest War also surfaced in Yang Zixu's mind.

Yang Zixu is the only son of the Heavenly Feather Divine General, and some things in the Northwest War are far more than Li Fu knows.

Yang Zixu held his head with his right hand, gently turned the teacup with his left hand, and said for a while: "You are right, the march route of the Shence Mansion in the second year is indeed a little confusing, such as the first battle to recover Tianliang County, Rong Di's 80,000 horses were able to break through from the encirclement of the Shence army, and the most puzzling thing is that Rong Di did not lose much in this battle, although it was 20,000 soldiers killed, but when the news came out afterwards, most of the 20,000 Rong Di soldiers were disabled, and there were not many elites who were broken. At that time, many people paid attention to the news of Tianliangjun's recovery, and not many people cared about it. Now that I think about it, there are indeed some problems. ”

Li Fu said calmly: "You are thinking about the battle situation on the northern defense line when the Tiance Mansion was requisitioned to the northern frontier in October. ”

October? At that time, the northern Xinjiang ...... Yang Zixu was a little surprised, looked at Li Fu, and probably guessed some of Li Fu's thoughts. Lost his voice exclaimed

"Shence is fighting to feed the war?!"
