Chapter 122: Meet Li Keyong [II]

Li Cunhuan sighed faintly and said: "The angel needs to know that although I am the envoy of the second town and the first (Andong Metropolitan Protector) Mansion is the metropolitan protector, I have to take care of the generals under my command. I let them do their best to let them get a certain benefit, otherwise I will be abandoned by them! So please forgive the angels! ”

Zhang Chengye immediately felt that he was wrong to blame Li Cunhuan, and couldn't help but say apologetically: "That's right, it's the fault of the lower officials!" Please forgive me! ”

Li Cunhuan's face changed, and he said righteously: "For the sake of Datang, what's the harm of this misunderstanding!" ”

Zhang Chengye couldn't help but be a little moved, he was loyal to the Tang royal family, and naturally he had a good impression of those who were loyal to the Tang Dynasty. But at this time, Li Cunhuan despised his hypocrisy in his heart.

Li Cunhuan had a relationship with Zhang Chengye again, but he found that Zhang Chengye was different from the eunuch in his mind. Zhang Chengye's speech and demeanor have a feeling that makes people feel like a spring breeze. For the general trend of the world is not as ignorant as the general eunuchs, although there are still miscalculations of the general trend of the world, but on the whole it is still more correct.

After the conversation, Li Cunhuan asked people to take out two gold ingots weighing five taels each and give them to Zhang Chengye, but Zhang Chengye did not accept them, but instead asked Li Cunhuan for a set of Sun Tzu's Art of War.

At this time, the books were still very expensive, especially some sets of famous military books, after Li Cunhuan became the envoy of the Lu Long Festival, he had a complete set of Sun Tzu's art of war at that time, although he immediately found someone to copy and print on a large scale, but it only affected the price of military books in local areas. Therefore, the price of this set of Sun Tzu's Art of War is no worse than ten taels of gold.

But from here, Li Cunhuan can see that this Zhang Chengye is not simple. Li Cunhuan couldn't help but think of keeping Zhang Chengye for his own use. Poor Zhang Chengye didn't know that he had been targeted by Li Cunhuan.

Within three days, Li Cunhuan accepted the news and invitation that Li Keyong had arrived in Ulzhou. It stands to reason that this kind of meeting between the two major forces is more cumbersome, not because of etiquette, but because both sides are afraid of being harmed by the other. They had to choose a suitable place, send people to survey the terrain on the spot, prepare troops and horses to rescue, and send detailed personnel to investigate the other party's movements, and so on. And when you leave the administrative center, you have to arrange a handover, which is not a matter of one or two days.

However, from this aspect, it can also be seen that Li Ke has softened his suit. Soon Li Cunhuan got the news from Jinyiwei, it turned out that Li Maozhen, Wang Xingyu and others beheaded the prime minister Wei Zhaodu and Li Ning, and they did not vent their anger, and also beheaded the privy envoy and several big eunuchs, including Zhang Taidu.

forced Tang Zhaozong to appoint Wang Ke as the envoy of the Hezhong Festival, and at the same time issued an edict ordering Wang Ke to be the defense envoy of Tongzhou (now Tongchuan City). Let's talk about it here, Tongzhou is Wang Xingyu's sphere of influence. Wang Xingyu didn't want to send a defense envoy to Wang Ke as a consolation prize, but to prepare to kill him in his sphere of influence. For example, a bandit attacked Wang Ke, or Wang Ke suddenly fell ill and died. When the time comes, Li Ke will use the scolding, and there will be an excuse.

Wang Ke is not an idiot, so he naturally doesn't recognize this edict, and he stubbornly guards Hezhong Mansion, making up his mind and saying that he won't attack anything. At the same time, the letters asking for help were really comparable to the speed of Song Gaozong's thirteen gold medals to Yue Fei, and they were sent to Li Keyong one after another, and the content written in them was ah! It is simply written in the heartfelt sense, and the listener is in tears and smells sad. It was as if he, Wang Ke, was attacking his enemies with dead defense for Li Ke.

His son-in-law's writing is so good, and Li Ke is not easy to use without a horse, but he really has no choice, Wei Bo's 20,000 horses can't move, and Lu Long's hob meat is even more restrained Li Ke's 50,000 troops, and there are also stationed in various places, such as guarding against the northern nomads, where Li Ke has 15,000 people. There is also Li Keyong's territory, which is already in troubled times, and Li Keyong will not govern the world, he is really a mountain and a king. Without 30,000 soldiers and horses guarding the interior, it is simply impossible to leave safely.

As a result, Li Keyong suddenly found that even if he struggled to recruit troops from the Shatuo people, there would be more than 10,000 people in his hands at most. If you want more, you have to recruit from the Han Chinese, but these Han people need at least half a year to train before they become a barely qualified group of soldiers. However, half a year later, Li Keyong wanted to meet Wang Ke, but he was afraid that he would have to submit the application form to King Yama.

Li Ke used this to have to 'condescend' to come to Ulzhou, and Li Cunhuan couldn't stimulate Li Ke anymore. Who knows if Li Keyong will go crazy and play against himself. According to Li Cunhuan's cognition, although Li Keyong is brave, he is also quite fierce and stupid, and he likes to play tricks from all sides. As a result, it was also for this reason that the butcher Zhu Wen used his yin * hair (plot) to pluck him down, which resulted in death without blinking his eyes, and before he died, he also instructed his son Li Cunmiao to kill Zhu Wen no matter what.

Therefore, in a weather that made Li Keyong very anxious, Li Cunhuan finally came to the destination of their conversation. Li Cunhuan slowly rode to a small hill alone and beckoned to Li Ke.

Li Keyong hesitated for a moment, ignored the advice of the tooth soldiers around him, and rode his horse to the hillock alone.

"Li Cunhuan! Tell me! You! Need! What the!!! Li Keyong said through gritted teeth, although his voice was deliberately suppressed, the anger that could be felt through the hundred-meter-thick wall still made Li Cunhuan feel it.

It's no wonder that Li Ke is so angry, he has always threatened people, and it is the turn of others to threaten him!

Li Cunhuan smiled and said, "Li Keyong, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore!" Just two words! Ulju! ”

Rick's face flushed with anger, "Do you think you have what it takes?" ”

Li Cunhuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'll help you recover the river!" This is a good deal, right? One town for one state! ”

Li Ke roared angrily, "Without your help, I can recover the river!" ”

"Really?" A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of Li Cunhuan's mouth.

As soon as Li Ke saw the meaningful smile on the corner of Li Cunhuan's mouth, he had the urge to click the bastard in front of him with a knife. But he is not an ordinary person after all, he took a deep breath, suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, and roared: "Don't go too far!" To Ulju! It's not possible, let's talk about other conditions! ”

When Li Cunhuan saw Li Ke using this look, he knew that it was impossible to let Li Ke use it to cut Ulzhou, although he felt a pity, Li Cunhuan would still be flexible. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Okay! It's okay not to be in Ulju, as long as the one-eyed dragon swears in the name of your ancestors, you will not send troops to Lulong for five years. At the same time, you owe me a favor Li Cunhuan, if I ask you for help, no matter what the situation, you must send troops to support me! ”

Li Keyong thought about it, looked at Li Cunhuan and gritted his teeth and said, "Deal!" ”
