Xue Yantuo's 3,000 men and horses, after arriving near Baidao, stayed there and set up camp, looking like they were going to stay for a long time.

Zhang Baoxiang, the deputy head of the Datong Army, has been taking people with him these days, monitoring the three thousand Xue Yantuo's soldiers and horses, and the news sent to the Chinese army has not stopped for almost a moment.

"Xue Yantuo has sent a messenger and is coming to Dingxiang!" In the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Jing took the telegram he had just received, and said to Du Ruhui and Old Lieutenant Chi Gong in the tent: "What do they want to do?" ”

From the signs of Xue Yantuo's 3,000 men and horses in the past few days, these people did not intend to meddle in Turkic affairs, which made Li Jing and the others secretly relieved.

At this time, the handling of the Turks has not yet been completely determined, and the entire Mobei is still in a power vacuum.

It's just that although these people have no signs of meddling in Turkic affairs, Li Jing and the others also can't guess why Xue Yantuo suddenly sent 3,000 men and horses to Mobei at this time.

There must be a purpose for Xue Yantuo in this, Li Jing would never believe that Xue Yantuo would send troops over so meaninglessly!

"Since Xue Yantuo has already sent envoys, then wait for what they say!" Du Ruhui looked at Li Jing thoughtfully, muttered a little, and then said: "For today's plan, it is better to decide on the strategy of Mobei as soon as possible!" ”

Now, with Xue Yantuo suddenly sending 3,000 men and horses to Mobei, the situation has begun to become a little complicated, and the strategy for Mobei. All of a sudden, it became urgent.

"What Du Xiang said is very true!" Hearing this, Li Jing nodded in agreement. Then, looking at the old lieutenant Chi Gong and said, "The old man will order a report to His Majesty." Tell Your Majesty about the matter here as soon as possible, and see how Your Majesty handles it! ”

Xue Yantuo's envoy has not yet arrived, and the specific situation can only be known after the envoy arrives, and several people sat in the military tent and discussed for a long time, but in the end they couldn't discuss the reason.

After coming out of Li Jing's Zhongjun tent, Du Ruhui first returned to his residence. His heart suddenly became extremely irritable, he carried his hands behind his back, and walked back and forth in the house a few times, and finally, he sighed, put on a windbreaker and went straight to Zhao Chen's residence.

In the past few days, the weather outside has been shivering with cold, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is freezing three feet. However, no matter how cold it looks outside, Zhao Chen's residence is always hot.

When Du Ruhui entered. happened to meet Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo, one of them sitting by the stove, talking. Constantly rummaging the potatoes on the stove.

"Is there something wrong with Du Xiang?" Du Ruhui has rarely come to Zhao Chen since he went out that day. Plus the solemnity on his face when he came in. Obviously, he looked preoccupied, so Zhao Chen waited until Du Ruhui sat down, then looked at Du Ruhui and asked.

Because of the cold wind, during this time, Zhao Chen stayed in the house all the time, and he didn't go outside at all, so naturally he wouldn't know that Xue Yantuo suddenly sent 3,000 soldiers and horses.

"A few days ago, the Datong Army discovered that Xue Yantuo's people, with three thousand soldiers and horses, suddenly appeared near Baidao!" Xue Yantuo suddenly sent soldiers and horses, Du Ruhui didn't plan to hide this matter from Zhao Chen, after hearing Zhao Chen's words, he hesitated slightly, looked at Zhao Chen, and said with a wry smile.

"Xue Yantuo?" When Zhao Chen heard this, the person who was originally going to turn over the 'sweet potato' on the stove suddenly raised his head, frowned at Du Ruhui, and asked puzzledly: "Why did they suddenly appear here?" ”

"The purpose is not clear!" Du Ruhui sat opposite Zhao Chen, frowned and looked down at the sweet potatoes baked on the stove, and said in a deep voice, "However, now that Xue Yantuo has sent an envoy, what is the specific situation, when the envoy arrives, it will be clear!" ”

"What does Du Xiang think?" Zhao Chen listened to Du Ruhui's words, thought for a moment, suddenly raised his head, looked at Du Ruhui meaningfully and asked, "It can't be that Xue Yantuo is idle, braving this ice and snow, and running to Baidao, right?" ”

"What does Chang'an Marquis think?" When Du Ruyan heard this, he didn't rush to answer, but met Zhao Chen's meaningful gaze and asked rhetorically: "Based on Chang'anhou's guess, what will be the purpose of Xue Yantuo suddenly sending three thousand men and horses to the vicinity of Baidao?" ”

"Hah!" Zhao Chen couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Du Ruhui's rhetorical question, took a slight breath, looked at the sweet potatoes on the stove, and said without raising his head: "Actually, the answer Du Xiang has already guessed in his heart, the whole Mobei is now a time of chaos, with the nature of these people, how can they just let it go!" ”

This answer, in fact, is not only clear in Du Ruhui's heart, but also in the hearts of Li Jing and Old Lieutenant Chi Gong.

Obviously, the area of Yinshan has always been fertile pastures, and it has always been controlled by the Turks in the past.

Now, with the destruction of the Turks, these places suddenly became vacant, and Xue Yantuo couldn't wait to occupy them.

When Du Ruhui heard Zhao Chen's words, he suddenly looked at Zhao Chen, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, smiled bitterly at Zhao Chen, and sighed softly: "The chief manager has already reported this matter to Your Majesty!" ”

“… And then what? Zhao Chen stared at Du Ruhui and asked, "What does Du Xiang think Your Majesty will say?" What if Xue Yantuo really made this calculation and wanted the grassland in Yinshan? ”

“… I'm afraid this will have to wait until Xue Yantuo's envoy arrives to be confirmed! Hearing this, Du Ruyan paused slightly, looked at Zhao Chen and said hesitantly.

Hearing Du Ruhui's words, Zhao Chen suddenly sighed slightly, smiled bitterly at Du Ruhui, and stopped talking.

In fact, the matter is already very clear, Xue Yantuo has taken a fancy to that grassland, and it is bound to win, the reason why he will send an envoy, judging by Zhao Chen, is to play tricks.

Li Er's appeasement policy has not yet been truly implemented, and the drawbacks of appeasement have already begun to appear, and in the future, there will be more such things.

"It's... How is it different from potatoes! The room was silent for a while, Du Ruhui looked at the 'potato' baked on the stove, picked up one and put it in his mouth and took a bite, feeling the sweetness in his mouth that was completely different from the potato, and suddenly looked at Zhao Chen strangely, and asked in surprise.

"It's called a sweet potato!" Seeing this, Zhao Chen couldn't help but sigh, temporarily put his mind at ease, and looked at Du Ruhui to explain.

And when Zhao Chen and Du Ruhui were judging the sweet potato, in the Manna Hall of Chang'an at this time, Li Er looked at the telegram he had just received, the muscles of his cheeks were beating suddenly, and his eyes were full of murderous energy.

'Smack! ’

After a long time, Li Erjiang slammed the telegram in his hand on the table, and roared angrily: "Xue Yantuo is simply unreasonable, damn it!" ”

On the telegram, Li Jing made it very clear that Xue Yantuo's 3,000 men and horses had arrived near Baidao, and the purpose was not clear at present, but the Datong Army reported that the envoys sent by Xue Yantuo were coming to Dingxiang Er.

Li Er is not Li Jing and others, there are some things, Li Jing and others are worried, and they are unwilling to make it clear, even if they have actually guessed eight or nine in their hearts, they will not jump to conclusions until the last moment.

But Li Er is different, from the first time he saw the content of the telegram, Li Er had already sensed Xue Yantuo's intention from the telegram and wanted the place under the Yin Mountain.

is so impatient, it's simply, I don't take Datang in my eyes, and the most important thing is that these days, because of Zhao Chen's fierce opposition to his appeasement strategy, I am holding my breath in my heart.

Now, Zhao Chen's objections have not completely fallen, and Xue Yantuo can't wait to appear in Mobei, which is like invisibly cooperating with Zhao Chen's words.

Zhao Chen said that these people have always been like wild wolves, and as a result, these people appeared in Mobei very cooperatively, and the nature of the wolf can be said to be alive in front of Li Er.

Wrath! Wrath! Wrath!

In the Ganlu Palace, Li Er was roaring, and the imperial case, screen, etc. in front of him were all in Li Er's anger, and they were all smashed to the ground, but even so, Li Er's anger was still blocked in his chest, and there was nowhere to vent.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others, after receiving Li Er's summons, hurriedly came to the Ganlu Palace, and several people looked at the mess in the Ganlu Palace, and the whole person stayed there.

"Xue Yantuo's three thousand soldiers and horses suddenly appeared near the White Road!" Li Er was standing in front of a huge map of Mobei with his hands behind his back at this time, and when he heard the voices of Changsun Wuji and others behind him, he said without looking back.

Then, without waiting for the eldest grandson Wuji and the others to speak, Li Er, who was originally facing away from everyone, turned around suddenly, gritted his teeth and looked at the people behind him, almost shouting: "What do they want to do?" Do you have to force me to do something to them? ”

Hearing Li Er's almost roaring words, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others, after hearing the words, their faces changed drastically, and they stood in the hall in silence, and their faces were pale for a while, and they couldn't speak for a long time.

"Since they seek death, then I will fulfill them!" Everyone else in the hall was silent, only Li Er's roar filled the entire hall, and after a long time, Li Er slammed his fist on the map next to him, and said murderously.

"Your Majesty!" As soon as he heard Li Er's murderous words, the eldest grandson Wuji below couldn't help but raise his sleeves and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, stepped forward hard, and said cautiously to the angry Li Er: "In the opinion of Weichen, also... It's better to wait until Xue Yantuo's envoy arrives before making a decision! ”

"Hahahaha!" When Li Er heard the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, he suddenly stood there, raised his head and laughed loudly, and when he had laughed enough, he suddenly put away his laughter, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with a blank look and said: "Chang'an Hou is right, these people are the nature of wolves, no matter how disguised, wolves are wolves after all!" ”

As soon as Li Er's words came out, there was a sudden silence in the hall! (To be continued.) )
