Chapter 118: The Future General Hidden in the Army
The rest of the days were very boring, and for a few days in a row, Yang Wanchun came in a hurry, and then stood on the shore, pointed at Liu Xu, and shouted loudly.
"You let go of my country's big pair of Lu."
Then Liu Xu pouted directly.
"You return our four Han counties."
Yang Wanchun jumped to his feet in anger.
"If you have the ability, you can fight!"
"Fight and fight, who is afraid of whom!"
"If you come to fight, whoever doesn't come is a woman!"
"Okay, you let your guards retreat ten miles first, let's go head-on, whoever asks people to help is the grandson!"
"Don't think about it, you're dreaming!"
"Bah, then you call it a yarn! Go home and have a baby! ”
The two of them scolded for almost a century, but the soldiers and horses on both sides did not move.
There are signs of rising temperatures, look at the days, half a month has passed, this is almost spring, Lao Wu finally came to the letter, the ice has been completely penetrated.
"Prepare to retreat, and leave early tomorrow morning."
Liu Xu was also tired of scolding, and if he didn't leave, the food on the ship would not be enough, and he had to return to Liaodong as soon as possible, and then replenish it. Then go straight back to Chang'an.
"Just get out like that? After being delayed here for so long, haven't you seen Hai Dongqing in the sky? That thing hasn't appeared in the past few days, and Zhang Zhongjian is gone, go out like this, I dare to guarantee that the moment you go to sea, there will definitely be hundreds of sea ships to surround you! ”
Li Ying frowned, retrieving the Ying Bone is a trivial matter, and exercising Liu Xu is a big matter, Li Er flickered Liu Xu to Goguryeo, just to train him to become a real big man, the Ying Bone is dead, he has always been here, and he can get it back sooner or later, just a general who can lead the army, but it is rare.
Liu Xu is almost the most ideal next military representative, and with this guy here, the balance of civil and military affairs can be controlled very well, so Li Er sent Li Ying to protect Liu Xu at any cost, all for the purpose of training him. But after coming to Goguryeo, there are too many variables, and the frozen Yalu water, which has never been heard of, was actually frozen, delayed for as much as half a month, Yang Wanchun, a generation of famous generals, if he didn't make good use of this half moon, it would be hell!
Both sides are dragging time, Liu Xu is to thaw the ice river, and Yang Wanchun is to deploy sea ships to intercept it, and everyone's tacit game has raised Li Ying's worries. Five sea ships are really powerful, but if there are hundreds of sea ships to intercept them, no other than others, people will block the sea layer by layer, your warship will crash into one, and you can also hit a few, and then directly springboard to fight, one is not good, it is the end of the whole army!
"That's what I've thought about, so I'm going to make a deal."
Liu Xu took out a piece of paper from his arms, the words on it were very wild, Li Ying's eyelids jumped, took it, and then sighed wordlessly, this kid can always grasp the weaknesses of others to attack, the reason why Zhang Zhongjian appeared was definitely not because he was a courtier of Goguryeo, what he wanted was Liu Xu's five sea ships from beginning to end, the people of the Tang Dynasty, the favorite thing to play is Infernal Affairs, the Chen Dade next to Yang Wanchun is the meticulous work that the Tang Dynasty is afraid of sending in the past, and Zhang Zhongjian, who is a Tang person, is not used on the sea ships of Goguryeo, Add some action, and he can't dominate the pirates next to Goguryeo for so long.
"Nearly half of the sea ships are his Zhang Zhongjian's?"
Li Ying asked, but Liu Xu nodded firmly.
"What is there to doubt, although Zhang Zhongjian's fifty sea ships were destroyed by us, but as the lord of the island country, how could he only return the ship so much, and besides, although the ship was destroyed that time, there were not a few deaths, he didn't want to make up for the ship? Therefore, my warship went to attack, and he Zhang Zhongjian picked up the leaks on the side, such a cost-effective deal, why didn't he do it, not to mention, he still wanted my sea ship! ”
Li Ying nodded, it is indeed a good strategy of the white wolf with empty gloves, but it's a pity, he Zhang Zhongjian miscalculated Liu Xu, Li Ying bet that as long as the sea ship is broken, this Zhang Zhongjian will be a bamboo basket at that time!
"Who's the best at archery? There is only one chance to shoot that old Yang horseman for me! ”
Liu Xu looked around, and then a big man came out, eight feet tall, but he was handsome, similar in age to Liu Xu, wearing a silver-white paper armor, very generous, hugged his fists.
"Master Hou, the last general is willing to go!"
Liu Xu nodded, although this guy had seen it a few times, he didn't know his name, poured a glass of wine, and handed it over.
"What's your name? It's nearly five hundred paces here, and if you shoot a crossbow, you will lose your head. And, when the sails are opened, I'll move the boat a little closer, but not much closer. ”
The man clenched his fists again.
"Hou Ye, the last general's surname is Xue Mingli, he admires Hou Ye's military might, and he joined the army in Yuezhou, fortunately General Wu appreciated it, and now he is serving as the team leader in the Dongting Water Division!"
After speaking, he drank the wine in one gulp, and Liu Xu squirted out, Xue Li? Duplicate name? Or what? When did such a big man come to his own sailor?
"Xue Li? Hedong Xue's? ”
This time, Xue Rengui was a little excited.
"Exactly, how does Master Hou know?"
Liu Xu almost bit off his tongue and reconfirmed.
"Your wife is Liu Yinhuan of the Hedong Liu Clan?"
Xue Li was about to kowtow.
"Exactly, Master Hou knows the last general?"
Liu Xu laughed out loud and helped Xue Li up. Then he kicked Lao Xu.
"There are such fierce generals in our army, why didn't you say it earlier!"
Lao Xu touched his head and didn't know why, he was very embarrassed, and Xue Li also blushed a little.
"Master Hou, although Xue Li is motivated and brave, he is still young, and this was brought over by the King of Shu when he came to Yuezhou."
Xue Li nodded.
"Hou Ye, the official road was modified, he occupied the land at home, got the money, and wanted to move the ancestral grave, but he persuaded me, saying that Hou Ye, you are establishing a water division, why not devote yourself to making contributions, when the time comes, the wealth will return to the hometown, and no matter how heavy the burial, it will not be too late! The king of Shu went to Yuezhou at that time, and met a tiger on the road, and the last general happened to be hunting and passed by, and happened to shoot the tiger, so the king of Shu recommended, and the last general entered the Dongting Water Division! Hehe, Hou Ye got up and praised falsely, in addition to eating more and having better archery skills, the last general also has not much ability, he can't be called a fierce general, and compared with the two generals Wu and Xu, it is even less worth mentioning. ”
Xue Li smiled and saluted Liu Xu, and then bowed to Lao Xu, Liu Xu stared at the beads, seeing Lao Xu's teachable look, he couldn't wait to kick again, a good fierce embryo, how do you cultivate him on the route of patting horses? Who is this, the ruthless character who sets the Tianshan Mountain with three arrows, takes off his hat and retreats from all enemies, the first fierce general in the later period of Li Er, how can he learn to pat himself on the back!
I couldn't bear to look at it directly, stroked my forehead, and thought for a long time before I came back to my senses in Lao Xu's cry.
"Ah, oh, well, then you can go and take it, there is still some difference between a strong crossbow and a bow and arrow, can you be sure?"
