In the last few days of the second year of Tianze, there was a sudden snowstorm in the north, and the rivers and mountains seemed to be dyed white, and the scenery was extremely spectacular and beautiful. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoPeople stayed at home, hiding in the bed to keep warm, and the family lamented the hardships of life. The rich and noble families are much more comfortable, the ginger soup is very warm, the charcoal fire is very strong, they don't feel the chill at all, but take the snow as the scene, chant poems and paint, so uncomfortable.

This is the true portrayal of Chang'an, the Tang Jingshi, which is praised by the people of the world, still has hungry and hungry people, but thinking of the group of troops who left the Beijing Division a few days ago, no one is embarrassed to complain about anything.

To be precise, there were two armies that left Chang'an, one was the old 2,000-kilowatt gang led by Li Mi, and the other was the 5,000-strong Tang elite army led by Chai Shao.

When Li Mi led his army eastward to Chousangyi, he received an edict from Li Yuan, ordering him to immediately lead the army back to Chang'an City. And Chai Shao was ordered to lead the army to hunt down Li Mi!

The two kilowatt gang troops who followed Li Mi were all his internal army, strong in combat and extremely loyal, seeing that Li Mi did not want to live under the people for a long time, they all showed their will to die, they took advantage of the opportunity when the news had not yet spread, quickly captured Taolin County, and fled into Xiong'er Mountain after snatching it.

"Are you sure there is only this road to the east of this mountain?" Chai Shao's eyes were as cold as arrows, he stared at Xiong'er Mountain tightly, and said calmly: "Li Mi is an important criminal of the imperial court, if you capture him, Your Majesty will definitely reward you, but if you let him escape and provoke Your Majesty's anger, you can't afford it!" ”

"Returning to the general, the end will be guaranteed with his life, there is no second way in this mountain!" At Chai Shao's side, a general bowed down and said: "It has been snowing for a day and a night, and the last general thinks that the general only needs to ambush here, and the Wagang thieves will definitely throw themselves into the net!" ”

Chai Shao has a delicate face, although he continues to wear a beard, and his face is tanned a little because of the perennial leader, but this does not affect the temperament revealed between his gestures. Li Xiuning is a woman who does not let her eyebrows and has a stubborn temper, and Chai Shao, as his husband, has naturally developed a good character.

"Li Mi is extremely cunning, knowing that the imperial court will not let him go easily, how dare he defend Xiong'er Mountain and not come out?" Chai Shao's brows furrowed deeply, but his tone of voice was still unhurried: "It's been two hours since the bait left, and it stands to reason that Li Mi should take action." ”

Two hours ago, more than ten cavalry galloped down from the mountain, they were not wearing armor, and the war horses under their crotches were also of the highest quality, because Li Mi was not among the people, Chai Shao let them leave in order to prevent them from startling the snakes.

As he spoke, there were figures on the mountain.

Soon, more than 20 cavalry galloped down the mountain, Chai Shao's eyes swept over the faces of those people, and seeing that Li Mi was still not there, his hands involuntarily clenched into fists, and soon shook his head again, sighed, and ordered not to act rashly.

"General, did you say that Li Mi was sending someone to ask for help?" One of Chai Shao's entourage said worriedly: "I heard that Wang Shichong has withdrawn the army, Xu Shiji's pressure has dropped sharply, and it is very likely that he will lead the army to rescue Li Mi." ”

Chai Shao smiled and shook his head, indicating that such worries were superfluous, as Li Yuan's concubine and the general of the Tang Dynasty's Zuo Lingwei, Chai Shao naturally knew the truth: "If he really expects Xu Shiji to save him, it will save me a lot of trouble." ”

When the entourage heard this, he only felt inexplicable, but Chai Shao didn't seem to intend to explain, so he could only respond respectfully and quietly wait for Li Mi to come down the mountain.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with Chai Shao's idea, after all, there is little food in Xionger Mountain, and the livestock grain and grass that Li Mi snatched from Taolin County alone will not last long at all.

......

On Xiong'er Mountain, Wang Bodang put on armor for Li Mi and handed him a bow and arrow.

Outside the tent, eight large men stood unmoved by the snow that had fallen on them, standing still like stones that had existed in the mountains.

"Xuanying, you have been following Mi for nearly ten years, and the situation is forcing you to make this decision as a last resort, do you have any complaints in your heart?" After packing up, Li Mi turned around and said: "If you fall into the hands of the Tang Army, you will definitely be angered, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to save your life at that time!" ”

"What did the gentleman say?" Li Xuanying smiled slightly, bowed down and replied: "If it weren't for Mr., Xuanying would have starved to death, and Mr. finally had a chance to repay his kindness, Xuanying was too late to be happy, how could there be complaints?" ”

"You have served me for so many years, and you owe nothing at all." Li Mi held Li Xuanying's hand and said movingly: "Two hours later, you will send more than 20 people down the mountain, if the Tang army has not reacted, you will wait until night to leave, remember, once you go down the mountain, you will be separated from the others, flee alone, and when Mi settles down, you will send someone to inform you." ”

"Yes." Li Xuanying complimented and urged: "Sir, after such a long time, the horses must have been prepared, you should leave here quickly." ”

The corners of Li Mi's eyes moistened, he nodded heavily, said take care, and went out of the big tent with Uncle Wang, and then headed south. The eight strong men stepped forward, stepping on the snow, and tightly guarded Li Mi and Wang Bodang.

Li Xuanying lifted the curtain of the big tent, looked at the back of Li Mi leaving in a hurry, stopped in front of the door for a long time, and then sighed and said to himself: "The grace of saving your life should be repaid with your life, why should Mr. worry that Xuanying will betray you?" His voice was so soft that even the two soldiers guarding outside the tent couldn't hear it clearly, but they could see the loneliness on Li Xuanying's face.

Everyone thought that since Li Mi rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, he would inevitably defect to Xu Shiji, the most powerful old department, but Li Xuanying knew that Li Mi would not do this, because not long ago, Li Mi received a letter sent by a Taoist priest named Xu Hongke. There are only a few numbers in the letter: Xu Shiji has descended to the Southern Sui and cannot go!

After receiving this letter, Li Mi and Wang Bodang discussed separately for half an hour, and finally decided on a plan: the plan of the suspicious soldiers, the secret Chen Cang!

Li Mi's strategy went very smoothly, and more than 30 people successfully left Xiong'er Mountain, and the Tang Army, as Li Mi expected, thought that these people were just bait and let them go.

Thinking that Li Mi could still be in danger at such a time and set such a careful strategy, Li Xuanying had to sigh that he could not learn Li Mi's three things after spending all his life's time.

Of course, at this time, Li Xuanying's heart was not only emotional, but also a sense of loss and sadness.

Staying in Xiong'er Mountain, he may end up dying for life, but Li Xuanying really has no complaints about this in his heart, the reason why he is lost and sad is only because before Li Mi left, he refused to say where he was going.

With Li Mi's strategy, everything was naturally planned, and it was impossible to take one step at a time, so Li Mi did not say where he planned to go, not because he himself did not know where to go, but because he was worried that Li Xuanying would be caught by the Tang Army and then reveal his whereabouts.
