Chapter 346: The Battle of Shu (2)
The scout of Mercedes came soon and came to Li Bao and them, and with the scout came a descendant, he was not very old, but his face was very heroic.
After the scout and the young man dismounted in turn, the two knelt in front of Li Bao. The scout spoke in advance: "Wang Danian, the second battalion of the first battalion of the first brigade of the left wing of a certain Huwei army, and the third scout team of the first capital of the first brigade of the Huwei army met with the king, commander Zhang, and Ouyang brigade commander. ”
Li Bao looked at the two of them, not like they had too urgent military affairs, and felt a little relieved, so he smiled and said, "Well, you have worked hard." What's the report, and who is this? ”
After listening to Li Bao's question, Wang Danian immediately said: "Back to the king, I was ordered to go to investigate the military situation at the front, and I met Xuanyuan Mingguang, the captain of Jin Luanwei Xiaoqi, who had already experienced his identity and nameplate, and I could confirm that he was my own person." ”
Li Bao looked at the young man named Xuanyuan Mingguang, and asked kindly: "Hello Xuanyuan Xiaoqi, you can look to our Weizhou, which means that your vision is very good, the young man works hard, and he will definitely have a great future in the future." ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang heard the tone of His Royal Highness King Ji, who was not very old, but he couldn't help but feel a little awkward in his heart, but as a clan and the prince of the clan who created such a big situation, he was indeed worthy of his predecessors, so he immediately put himself in the right position, and replied humbly: "A certain Xuanyuan Mingguang thanks the king for his encouragement, and he will definitely keep the king's teachings in mind and never dare to forget." ”
Li Bao smiled, then asked the two of them to get up, and then said softly: "What's the situation in Shuzhong, Xuanyuan Xiaoqi might as well tell us big guys." ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang was very happy to see Li Bao in his heart, and when he heard Li Bao ask him to explain the situation, the joy in his heart immediately turned red because of excitement.
"Returning to the king, Commander Zhang, Ouyang Brigade Marshal and Hu Zhen envoy, now people everywhere in Shuzhong are panicking, just because the king's prestige is unparalleled in the world, and our Weizhou army is brave and invincible, so Chen Jinghuo's guy is already scared and has no idea. And Chen Jinghuo's two cronies, Niu Miao and Luo Yuangao, recommended themselves and asked Ying to share the heavy responsibilities for Chen Jinghuo.
Chen Jinghuo was very happy to hear this, and agreed that the two of them served as the guards and capture envoys of the Jianmen Pass, and Luo Yuangao served as the defense envoy of Chengdu Mansion, and the two became the two major mountains in Xichuan Town, contacting the officials in Xichuan Town and the family members of Chengdu Mansion all day long.
The Xuanyuan family, the Xuanyuan family, is just one of the things they contact, and it is because a certain person has now figured out the purpose of the two of them.
In addition, Dongchuan Jiedu made Yang Shili very tough, and he made a death oath in front of Chen Jinghuo, willing to live and die with Dongchuan. ”
After listening to Xuanyuan Mingguang's narration, Li Bao immediately became interested, and he said: "Oh, I don't want Xuanyuan Xiaoqi to still be a child of the family, I am really a little surprised." ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang was very excited when he heard this, and he continued: "So that the king knows that a certain person was just a prodigal son of a family in Chengdu Mansion back then, and he only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and later opened with the branches of Qianjinlou and Meiyaya. At first, he was just curious, but he slowly learned about the king's deeds in the store, and he admired the king very much at that time. It is a pure lady who is actively approaching the boss of the Qianjin Building and the proprietress of the pure cui tea. Later, after the pure lady slowly tested the heart of a certain person, she decided to develop a certain and joined Jin Luanwei. ”
Chunniang poisoned Concubine Guo Shufei's master and servant with a trick for Li Bao in Daming Palace, and designed to go out of Daming Palace first.
Later, Li Bao set up Jin Luanwei, so Jin Luanwei's branch entered Chengdu Mansion with the Qianjin Building and Meiya Shop in Shuzhong, and Chunniang became the person in charge of Chengdu Mansion.
It seems that this pure lady has a strong business ability, and this Xuanyuan Mingguang is a good seedling.
Li Bao was very satisfied after listening to Xuanyuan Mingguang's words, Hu Sanbao nodded at Xuanyuan Mingguang, his subordinates inquired about important news, and he was naturally happy that he had helped the king's great cause.
Xuanyuan Mingguang was even more excited, with a smile on his face.
Zhang Qingping coughed, and then said, "Xuanyuan Xiaoqi, you just said that you know the purpose of Niu Miao and Luo Yuangao?" ”
When Xuanyuan Mingguang heard this, his face was suffocated, "The king and all the envoys forgive the sins, and a certain party just listened to the king's praise, and forgot to make the most important thing clear for a while. ”
Li Bao smiled, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Xuanyuan Xiaoqi can talk about it quickly." ”
"Returning to the king, this Niu Miao and Luo Yuangao have long had the intention of betraying the lord to seek glory, the reason why they occupy a key position is to surrender to the king as soon as possible, and they contact officials at all levels and the family in order to increase their bargaining chips, so that the king can pay attention to them and ensure that their glory is not lost."
Li Bao was overjoyed when he heard this, this Shu is not easy to win, if there is an inner ghost who can break it as soon as possible, it would be great, and there is no need to spend more swords, why not do it.
So Li Baoxi said: "Is Xuanyuan Xiaoqi's news reliable?" ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang replied confidently: "Don't worry, the king is so important, the lowly official naturally has to be careful to verify before he can tell the king, in addition, he has already organized the children and family members of the family, and he will raise troops to seize the city just when the king's army arrives, and he doesn't think that Niu Miao and Luo Yuangao also have the same thoughts." What do you think of their service kings? ”
Li Bao glanced at Zhang Qingping and found that Zhang Dalang was also relaxed, he laughed and said: "Naturally, I agreed, you will immediately contact the two of them when you go back this time, and tell them that as long as they can take Xichuan Town as soon as possible, they will not be stingy with high-ranking officials." ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang heard that King Ji supported his work so much, he was even happier in his heart, if he did this matter well, he would definitely be able to be like a fish in water in Jinluanwei in the future, after all, in addition to His Royal Highness King Ji, there was also Hu Sanbao, the envoy of Nanzhen, who was present.
Today, these two nobles have expressed their appreciation for themselves, and their future must be limitless. However, the nobles' appreciation is only temporary, and they must show outstanding merits in order to make the nobles look at themselves.
After making up his mind, Xuanyuan Mingguang said to Li Baogong: "King, there is another request, please allow it." ”
"Oh, what a request, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Well, that's the case, a certain party just said that there are many children in the clan who admire the king very much, and the elders in the family all want to be able to win some meritorious deeds and glorify the lintel, so they want to ask the king to allow us to join the Weizhou army, I don't know if the king can allow it?"
Xuanyuan Mingguang's words are very representative. Li Bao currently occupies many prefectures and counties, and some of the big families in those prefectures and counties have expressed their requests to send their children to the Weizhou army for training. As the lord of Weizhou, Li Bao was originally very disgusted with these rich and noble children with family imprints.
But then Zheng Yan advised him in the letter, he is the Li Tang clan, with a very clear orthodox appeal, coupled with the outstanding achievements and strong force of the Weizhou army under his command, those big families to take refuge under his command is also a realistic choice, if Li Bao is cold and unkind, it will only make these swinging forces disgusted with him, and the wealth and fertile land controlled by those big families cannot be the help of Li Bao's rule.
So Li Bao put down his insistence and did not refuse these children of the family who wanted to join the Weizhou Army, but those children of the family must go through the training of recruits in the Weizhou Army. If they are eliminated, it can only be said that they are not suitable for the Weizhou army.
But Xuanyuan Mingguang is Jin Luanwei's grassroots captain, but he wants to abandon Jin Luanwei's official position and start from scratch? This young man is really not simple.
When Hu Sanbao heard this, he immediately couldn't hold back, "Xuanyuan Xiaoqi, have you thought clearly?" This is not a trivial matter, the future of our Jin Luanwei is very bright, you are now our Jin Luanwei's small flag captain, and it is only a matter of time before you are promoted to a senior position such as the general flag captain or the general of the south and north towns in the future, you are still young, don't worry. ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang respectfully said to Hu Sanbao: "Hu Zhen's envoy also asks to calm his anger, this request is by no means a hot-headed idea, when he was young, he liked to listen to the legendary stories of those rangers the most, and he liked Zhang Jian, Ban Gu and other famous heroes in history in the past, and he wanted to follow the king to become famous on the battlefield." Since this is the case, I also asked Hu Zhenfu to forgive Haihan. ”
Hearing Xuanyuan Mingguang's statement, Li Bao understood his ambition a little, and he smiled and said: "San'er, the twisted melon is not sweet, since Xuanyuan Xiaoqi is not in Jinluanwei, let's not force him, just let him do what he wants." But let's talk about the front first, if you can't survive the recruit training period, don't blame our Weizhou Army for being strict, and you can still go back to Jin Luanwei at that time, how about it? ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang listened to Li Bao's words, and immediately smiled on his face, "Thank you for your grace, and thank you for Hu Zhen's grace." ”
Li Bao smiled silently, and Hu Sanbao was a little reluctant, but Li Bao spoke, and he couldn't say anything more.
Zhang Qingping looked at the sun, and then said: "According to our marching speed, it is estimated that we will be able to reach Jianmen Pass in seven days, Xuanyuan Xiaoqi must act as soon as possible, and at that time, we must ensure that we can pass through Jianmen Pass as soon as possible, and be able to attack Chengdu Mansion City by surprise and take Xichuan as soon as possible." ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang immediately said respectfully: "The lowly official has received the order, please rest assured!" A certain must do his best to complete the task. ”
"Well, Wang Danian, you will send Xuanyuan Xiaoqi back immediately. Xuanyuan Xiaoqi remembered, complete your own task well, you are the first merit of this battle against Shu. ”
Xuanyuan Mingguang immediately replied loudly: "Don't worry, the king will definitely live up to his mission!" It will definitely add glory to my Weizhou Ji Kingdom, and make the king proud of something! ”
Everyone sent Xuanyuan Mingguang away, and then looked at the rugged Shu Road, and didn't feel that their minds were relaxed.
