Chapter 82: The Strength of the West Sea

In Xihai City, Li Yan and his entourage slowly walked into Xihai City, it has been seven or eight months since they left Xihai City, and now they have returned to Xihai again, Li Yan felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

has its own roots here, and now Zhang Jing, the general of Zhengnan, has been ordered by Li Wei to replace Tang Yao as the chief general of the Lejun battalion, and Li Wei of the West Sea intends to let Li Yan guard it.

Entering the Zhenbei General's Mansion, Lei Ming and Iron Hammer greeted them at the gate of the mansion, and the Zhenbei Military Academy Captain and above came.

"I've seen General Pingbei." Lei Ming and the others saluted Li Yan and said.

"Good, good! Gentlemen, please get up. Li Yan dismounted and looked at everyone and said with a smile.

"Thank you, General Pingbei."

"Good. This is not the place to talk, so let's go into the house. Li Yan laughed.

"Brother Leiming, I haven't eaten for two days now, and I'm so hungry that my chest is close to my back, so I can prepare more food later."

"Don't worry, general, I've got a banquet ready for the general." Lei Ming saluted Li Yan and said.

"Good. Let's all go inside. ”

Zhenbei General's Mansion because of Li Yan's arrival, suddenly became extremely lively, half a year has passed, many people speculate whether Li Yan's envoy to the Jin Kingdom encountered any accidents, Jiuquan City once rumored that Li Yan had been killed by the Huns, Lei Ming ordered to dare to spread rumors in the army and blame fifty military sticks, which gradually subsided, but still could not stop the sergeants from discussing in private.

Now the generals saw Li Yan appear in front of them unscathed, and they felt a burst of surprise in their hearts.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, everyone was not restrained, and stepped forward to toast Li Yan, Li Yan did not shirk, and those who came did not refuse.

"General, less than half a month after you left Jiuquan, it has spread all over the city, saying that the general has been ...... when you were in Qilian County But it scared my hammer. I know that the general is blessed with a great life, how can I help the general of the Huns. Ha ha! After Iron Hammer put down the wine glass in his hand, he looked at Li Yan and said with a smile.

"Haha. General Hammer doesn't really think I'm dead, does he? ”

"No, no, no, I knew the general would be fine." Hammer hurriedly denied it.

"At that time, I don't know who heard that the general was ambushed and killed by the Huns, and he cried like that? Yelling to avenge the general. Thunder ruthlessly debunked the Hammer's lies.

"What's wrong? If you want to say it again, my fist is not recognized by my six relatives. When Iron Hammer saw Thunder tell his troubles, his face turned black.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything."

"This Huns set up an ambush in Qilian and didn't kill me, but shot to death the leader of the pseudo-cool Dragon and Tiger Guards, Tuohemu, and when he returned, hundreds of Huns chased after him, and Wei Liang grabbed a live eloquence before interrogating him from his mouth."

Li Yan briefly talked about the things he encountered when he was on the mission to the Jin Kingdom, and everyone held their breath when they heard it, for fear of missing a word.

"It's a pity. Cheaper Wei Liang, this kid. By the way, why didn't General Han see him? Iron Hammer sighed with a look of regret after hearing this, and suddenly realized that Han Qian had not come back with Li Yan.

"Oh. The Huns were checking tightly, I and Wei Liang took the blood wolf guard to go first, and Brother Han and Lord Liang returned to Jiuquan through Zhangye, and if the itinerary went well, it should have passed Zhangye. Li Yan picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass.

"I didn't expect the Jin Kingdom to become like this now, if it goes on like this, this Liu Yu is afraid that he will really do what Wang Mang and Dong Zhuo did back then." Lei Ming sighed.

"If there is a great chaos today, and the heroes rise together, the appearance of Liu Yu may not be a bad thing, at least it can contain many forces of Qin and Wei, so that they are unable to expand outward." Li Yan said in a low voice.

"What the general said is that now the Huns occupy a large area of land in Nanliang, and as for the ability to accumulate strong strength in two or three years, I am afraid that my Daliang will face huge pressure at that time." Lei Ming nodded.

"What's there to be afraid of? No matter how many Huns come, I am not afraid of hammers. Hammer said with a grin.

"Yes, yes, you're amazing." Lei Ming laughed playfully.

"That's it, who is my hammer?"

After the banquet was over, Li Yan left behind Lei Ming and Iron Hammer, and now that he has been away from the West Sea for so long, there are many things to know.

"General, you can be regarded as coming back, if you don't come back, the Zhenbei Army will probably be taken away by that guy Suo Xun." After everyone left, Lei Ming closed the door and walked to Li Yan's side and whispered.

"What's going on?"

After the general left Jiuquan, the prince ordered the Zhenbei Army to recruit troops and expand the Zhenbei Army to 10,000 people. Today's Zhenbei Army has 10,000 soldiers and horses. There were 4,000 cavalry and more than 6,000 infantry. After the news of the general's murder spread, Suo Changshi said that in order to prevent the Zhenbei Army from being in turmoil, it was suggested that Suo Xun should serve as the deputy general of the Zhenbei Army and temporarily lead the Zhenbei Army. ”

"I see." Li Yan nodded and said in a deep voice.

An hour later, Lei Ming and Iron Hammer left the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and Li Yan stayed in the mansion tonight.

Wei Liang had already settled the Blood Wolf Guard, and now that he had returned to Xiliang, these Blood Wolf Guards looked much more relaxed.

Early the next morning, Lei Ming took Li Yan and his entourage to the camp of the Zhenbei Army, the Zhenbei Army was drilling, 4,000 cavalry and more than 6,000 infantry troops, and the dusty scene in the camp was very spectacular.

"Okay. You are not lazy, these sergeants can now be regarded as the elite of my great coolness, thanks to the two generals. Li Yan was very satisfied, and the strength of the Zhenbei Army has been greatly improved.

"The general has won the award, and General Iron Hammer and I have both practiced in accordance with the general's training method, and we can achieve such results thanks to the sergeants' intentions and the general's training method."

"I know the merits of the two generals. Brother Hammer, you have selected five hundred strong and strong sergeants from the infantry army, and this will be of great use. Li Yan turned to the hammer behind him and said.

"Huh? General, can there be less? When Iron Hammer heard that Li Yan was looking for him again, he immediately asked with a sad face.

"You bastard. You can rest assured that this time the general will not be transferred to General Han. It's all for you, aren't you very envious of General Han's Mo Dao soldiers? The five hundred sergeants are all for you. ”

"Really? That's great. General, don't worry, I'll pick it out. As soon as Iron Hammer heard that Li Yan was going to set up five hundred Mo sword soldiers for him, he walked away.

"General Lei Ming, has there been any change in the Rouran people recently?" Li Yan asked Lei Ming.

"Not really. It is said that Hu Lu has succeeded to the throne of Khan, and last month he sent someone to Xihai City to say that he had something important to meet the general, and he left when he heard that the general had not returned. ”

"Oh. Got it. ”

Li Yan knew what Hu Lu was looking for him, and now that Hu Lu has succeeded to the throne, the demand for pig iron must have increased greatly, and it is very likely that he has come to trade pig iron for himself.

"It's an opportunity to make a fortune." Li Yan said secretly in his heart.
