Wang Huan rode a white horse, a full set of white bright light armor, a red daqi wrapped around his shoulders, with a red tassel flying on the helmet, the helmet was like a crown of jade, really heroic and extraordinary, but he was tall, his strong muscles set off the armor high bulge, and the whole person looked as mighty as a martial god.

Li Yukui couldn't help but secretly cheered, and said in his heart that this Pingliang Waiter is really capable of his subordinates, fierce generals are like clouds, a young general is still so powerful, I don't know how many outstanding talents are used by him, and the ancients are heroes in troubled times. It seems that the dragon spirit of the Ming Dynasty is not exhausted, and there is such a figure like Guo Ziyi and Li Jing, who can continue the country for another 500 years.

The white-armored young man was escorted by a group of cavalrymen who were also white-armored, and came to Li Yukui in a cluster, and someone urged the horse forward to approach the young general and said something, the young general nodded, and stopped in front of Li Yukui.

Li Yukui was wondering, he looked at it for a long time, the Ming army pulled out again and again, but he never saw Pingliang waiting for the arrival of the Chinese army, and saw that behind him was a heavy battalion full of carts, and he didn't see Wang Huan, who was as fierce as the overlord of Chu in his impression.

In fact, he can't be blamed, because he has never seen Wang Huan at all, and his son Li Hong went to Xi'an, but he also failed to see him, and it was Meng Zhiyu, the governor of Shaanxi, who came forward to receive him. At that time, Wang Huan was busy casting cannons with foreign devils in Hanzhong.

Seeing the white-armored young general jump off the horse and stand in front of him, Li Yukui, who had a polite smile on his face, couldn't help but be startled, Wang Huan's height was a head taller than him, and his tower-like body covered Li Yukui in the shadows at once.

Ma Wannian looked at Li Yukui's bewildered expression, knowing that he couldn't guess that Pinglianghou in the northwest of Weizhen was actually a young man less than twenty years old, and he was afraid that he would be offended, so he hurriedly nodded in front of him: "Governor Li, this is Lord Pinglianghou of Daming, don't hurry up to see the courtesy!" ”

Wang Huan is a lord, and Li Yukui has already been dismissed, at best he is just an outsider, the two of them meet, of course, Li Yukui should salute Wang Huan.

Hearing Ma Wannian's words, Li Yukui was taken aback, couldn't help but take a step back, his eyes widened, his face showed a shocked look, and he said in surprise: "What, what? This、This is Pingliang? ”

Wang Huan smiled slightly, and didn't care: "It's like a fake!" ”

Li Hong, who was behind Li Yukui, saw his father's gaffe, and hurriedly reached out and poked his waist, Li Yukui was in pain, and then he was shocked, and hurriedly bowed down for a long time, and said in a panic: "Li Yukui, the widow of the Ming Dynasty, has seen the Hou Ye!" The old man is clumsy, he doesn't know the master, and he still looks forward to forgiveness! ”

Wang Huan helped him up with both hands, and said warmly: "Lord Li has used his own strength to ascend to the heights and echo, gather the crowd anyway, he is my loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, plus the recovery of Puzhou and Tongguan, the merit is great, what is the crime?" The adults laughed, and they would like to present the court and ask for credit for the adults. ”

Li Yukui's face was embarrassed, and the hand held by Wang Huan unconsciously shrank back slightly, and shook his head bitterly: "Master Hou must not be like this, the old man failed to give up his life to serve the country, and when the Dongyu occupied Shanxi, he was struggling to breathe for this half of his life, and kept a rat tail braid, it is a shame to say it, I am really ashamed of my ancestors!" Now with the help of the imperial court, the army is raised anyway, but it is just to be loyal to the emperor with a guilty body, where do you dare to say any credit. ”

Wang Huan waved his hand, disapproving: "Lord Li's words are wrong, the so-called situation creates heroes, the Eastern Capture soldiers swept through Shanxi, how many court officials and chief soldiers have not been able to serve the country loyally, let alone you who are at home?" Those who support the army do not know how to kill the enemy, and those who are healthy do not know the general righteousness, this is the general trend, and it cannot be changed by individuals. The fact that adults can be in this world anyway shows that adults have great hearts and are loyal! That's a hundred times better than how many people keep their faithfulness on their lips. ”

Li Yukui's heart was full of joy when he said this, and the last line of worry in his heart was thrown out of the clouds, and his impression of this general who was in a high position at a young age became a little better, and after saying a few words, he got on the horse and led the way in front of him, and took Wang Huan into Tongguan City.

Enter the city from the west gate, walk along the official road of the mountain, suddenly open up in front of you, the city appears in front of you, the Tongguan city at this time, is a military city, except for some inns and car shops opened in the city, there are no residents in the whole city, all are soldiers.

The inn and the big car shop are concentrated near Xiguan, and the east side, are military facilities, after crossing the bridge erected over the Tongshui through the city, you will come to the military camp that occupies most of the city, there is the Tongguan garrison in the military camp, and Li Yukui lives in it.

It is said that it is a garrison house, but in fact it is just a larger blue brick house, and the simple White Tiger Hall is located in the hall house that enters the back, which can accommodate more than a dozen people, and it will not work if there are more.

Wang Huan was led into it by Li Yukui, and immediately took the lead in the hustle and bustle, except for the three battalion commanders and the thousand general horses of the Huozi battalion, Li Yukui and his son Li Hong and son-in-law Wang Chenglong were also left behind.

Ma Wannian took out the map of Tongguan presented by Li Yukui from his bag and spread it out on the table, Wang Huan beckoned, and gathered everyone over.

"Master Li, don't talk about gossip, let's talk about the **** later, let's get down to business first, after all, the situation is urgent, and we can't afford to delay." Wang Huan said with a solemn face and a calm face.

Li Yukui nodded, exchanged glances with his son and son-in-law, and was a little awe-inspiring towards Wang Huan, feeling that this young marquis was really resolute, and if he was replaced by other Ming generals, he would never mention anything else if he didn't sit down and have a drink first.

"The purpose of our army's trip is to relieve the siege of Shanxi, but to break the siege, we must first ensure the safety of our own back roads, otherwise we will not be able to break the siege but we will also put ourselves in." Wang Huan said in a deep voice, his voice revealing the seriousness of Ling Wen who had to listen attentively: "Shanxi is chaotic, grain and grass cannot be continued, except for some brought by our army, it must be transported from Shaanxi, and Tongguan is a critical node on my grain road, once it is lost, the consequences are unimaginable." A few days ago, I sent General Li Dingguo here to visit the front station, touched the terrain here, and had a general idea. ”

He nodded at Li Dingguo, and Li Dingguo immediately reached out and took out another map, on which some lines and points were traced with a dansha red pen.

Li Yukui and the others looked forward and found that this map was not quite the same as what they had given away, with more landscapes and much more detail.

"This is General Li on the basis of Lord Li's map, re-depicted a map, please see, Tongguan east of Henan, north of the Yellow River, across the river is Shanxi, three passes, extremely important. And Guancheng is next to the mountain and water, the mountain is dangerous, the water is turbulent, and the Yellow River pontoon bridge is in the Guancheng, the so-called strange pass in the world, that is, it is said here. ”

Wang Huan made a pen with his hand and pointed to those red lines: "The reason why Tongguan can hold the three provinces is nothing more than three, one is the Guancheng blocking the road, the second is the forbidden ditch Hengshan, and the third is the twelve cities connected by beacons, these three are connected to each other, constituting the natural danger of Tongguan, our army's grain road to the west, must pass through Xiguancheng, cross the Yellow River pontoon bridge, and enter Shanxi in Puzhou, so Tongguan cannot be lost, and there must be a strong army to guard it, in case the back road is intercepted." ”

The room was silent, all the people listened to Wang Huan quietly, Li Yukui and others participated in the Kuizhou military conference for the first time, the solemn and tense atmosphere had already suffocated the three of them, and even Li Yukui, who had a wide vision, pursed his lips and didn't dare to gasp for breath, for fear of disturbing Wang Huan.

"Ma Zuoheng listens to orders!" Wang Huan said sharply, Ma Zuoheng had already been mentally prepared, and from the time Wang Huan allowed him to enter this room, he knew that there must be a task assigned to him.

Hearing Wang Huan call him, Ma Zuoheng put his legs together, stood straight, and responded calmly: "The end will be!" ”

"I order you to take the two infantry teams of the Huozi Battalion with a thousand-person team, and work with Lord Li's subordinates to Zhentong Pass to prevent the Henan Tartars from taking the opportunity to knock on the pass and keep my grain road safe!"

Wang Huan shouted, and said to Li Yu with disgust: "Lord Li should respect General Ma and obey the general's orders, he will leave a tiger talisman for the imperial court to transfer troops as a token of Ma Zuoheng's deployment of your department, are you willing?" ”

Li Yukui was full of excitement, and blurted out: "Willing, willing, it's all up to the Hou Ye's orders." ”
