Chapter 116: Are You Yan Yun?

(Ask for collection)

From the end of March to the beginning of July, Li Xian finally got a little bored watching during the three months outside Liaodong City. Since this period, according to the analysis of what he has mastered, the powerful Great Sui army has razed Liaodong City to the ground at least ten times, but unfortunately, it is still Liaodong City of the Goryeo people.

After the Sui army attacked Liaodong City for the fourth time, Li Xian made a bet with Chen Qi'er.

Li Xian bet that Sui Jun would definitely not give the Goryeo people another chance this time, although he knew that he would lose. The reason why there is this gamble, Li Xian just thought, what if there is a deviation in history?

In fact, he just had some expectations in his heart.

Alas, he was destined to be disappointed.

After Yizhi Wenqing put up the white flag for the fourth time, there was no movement in the Great Sui military camp for many days, and Li Xian had already vaguely guessed why. If you don't attack, you won't surrender, what else can you do except wait for His Majesty the Great Sui Emperor to make up his own mind? Li Xian lost, and he actually knew that he had lost from the day he gambled.

Chen Que'er waved her hand generously and said, "If you lose, you lose, forget about the bet or something." ”

Li Xian said seriously: "I am willing to lose the bet, I still have this gamble." Since I said that the one who loses washes the horse ten times for the one who wins, then I will wash you ten times. ”

Chen Que'er smiled and said, "Then how embarrassing ......?"

Li Xian glanced at him and said, "Your expression is really fake." ”

Chen Que'er snorted, changed her face and said, "I remember it ten times."

Li Xian smiled, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He was uncomfortable, not because he lost to Chen Que'er, but because of the more than 10,000 soldiers who died in vain under Liaodong City. He was distressed, really distressed. Although he never thought of himself as a Sui man, during the foreign war, he still hoped that the Great Sui would destroy Goguryeo in one go, although he knew that it was impossible. Seeing that it has been besieged for three months, Liaodong City is still standing, not to mention the soldiers of the Great Sui, even he is holding his breath and feeling uncomfortable.

This period of watching the offensive of the Great Sui no longer has the passion it used to be, and it is even boring. Li Xiansuo's surname rode on a big black horse and led Chen Que'er's Botawu to gallop in the direction of Liaoshui. In the galloping of the horse, his depressed mood was slightly relieved.

Dismounted at the edge of Liaoshui, Li Xian patted the big black horse's ass and said, "Go ahead first and find food by yourself, and wait for me to rest and then serve you!" ”

The big black horse didn't know if he understood his words, and he didn't go far, just bowed his head and graze not far from Li Xian, and Chen Que'er's Teller Biao honestly followed behind the big black horse, and it was originally arrogant and had no temper at all in front of the big black horse.

Li Xian lay down on the slope of the river embankment, plucked a hairy grass and put it in his mouth.

He's been thinking about whether it's time to go back for the past two days. Yanshanzhai doesn't know what's going on, there is Daxi Changru to train the army, after half a year, I'm afraid that those Yanshan thieves have already been reborn from what they used to be. He wanted to continue watching, but now that he has lost interest in watching it, he has begun to think about Zhang Zhongjian and them. He originally wanted to be a witness, witnessing the futility of the Great Sui's first expedition to Liaodong from beginning to end. Witness how the most elite 300,000 soldiers of the Great Sui were buried in their homeland, and witness this somewhat bizarre but really hurtful history.

The months-long siege battles were already tedious, and there seemed to be little excitement to speak of. The Sui army's tactics had been exhausted within a few months, but the Goryeo had only one way to keep the Sui army out. It has to be said that it is a miracle that this kind of thing can be succeeded four times in a row, and the creator of this miracle is actually not the complacent Yizhi Wenqing, nor the Yizhi Wende who left this method for Yizhi Wenqing before leaving, or even Liu Shilong, who repeatedly blocked the Sui army from breaking the city, in the final analysis, the creator of this miracle is still Yang Guang, the emperor of the Great Cause.

If it weren't for the sake of face, if Goryeo surrendered, he would not be able to set up troops, and Liu Shilong would not have the courage to stop in front of Yu Wenshu again and again.

Who is Yuwenshu? He is Yang Guang's most trusted person!

The Yuwen family is now a well-deserved family in the first army today, if Liu Shilong didn't have the support of Yang Guang's previous words, even if he was a Shangshu Youcheng, he would never have a grudge with Yuwenshu, of course, the reason why he did this was to grab credit. If Liaodong City was defeated, it can be said that it has nothing to do with him, the surrendered envoy. The credit is all for Yu Wenshu and others, and he can't even get a piece of the pie. But if he sent someone to surrender, then his credit is still above Yuwenshu!

Winning the first city of Goguryeo is not a small credit.

Moreover, compared to things like merit rewards, Liu Shilong values reputation even more, if he really recruits Yizhi Wenqing, then there is no doubt that this will be a major event that will go down in history. Think about it, how happy it would be to have a lot of money in the history books of a few years from now. Of course, because he has always played a disgraceful role in the process of the Great Sui expedition to Liao, he has indeed left a very heavy mark in the history books.

The literati have the same name, and they pay more attention than the generals!

A civil official, subdued Liaodong City, this will be a major event that will be praised by the world and praised through the ages!

Eozhi Wende surrendered four times, and he also wrote a merit stamp twice, but it was a pity that he ...... It is destined that this seal will not be presented at all.

It can be said that the fact that Eulji Wenqing can defend Liaodong City is not that the Goryeo people are really the first in the world to defend as they boast. If it weren't for the Emperor Daye's efforts to show his benevolence, the ten Liaodong cities would have been razed to the ground.

Li Xian lay on the slope, looking at Liaoshui, stunned.

Three million people are on the Eastern Crusade, how much loss will there be if one more day is delayed? Counting horses, cows and mules, the amount of grain and grass consumed in a day is an astronomical amount!

In Li Xian's view, Yang Guang is a rich man with a lot of money, and he thinks that no matter how much he consumes, it will be just a drop in the bucket for the entire Great Sui. He has this self-confidence, there are tens of thousands of catties of grain in Huaiyuan Town alone, counting the other two places, the grain and grass mobilized this time is enough for the army to eat for three years!

But he didn't have three years to attack Goryeo, Liaodong was bitterly cold, and if the weather was cold early, it would snow here in September! Three million people, they have besieged for three months without taking a single Liaodong city!

The more I thought about it, the more depressed I became, as a Han man, even if Li Xian knew that Yang Guang was his biggest enemy, he still couldn't help but feel pity and pity.

After lying down for a while, he spat out the hairy grass in his mouth, got up to wash the horse, and when he stood up, he found that a group of people were leading the horses on foot along the embankment in the distance.

He looked at it alertly, then walked over to the big black horse.

There were no less than thirty or forty people in the distance, and as they gradually got closer, although those people were wearing long robes, Li Xian could see that except for a middle-aged man who had already made a fortune and was slightly shy about his stomach, everyone else had martial arts. Even the middle-aged man who seems to be a little vain, it can be seen from the way he walks that this person must have been good at martial arts in his early years.

Li Xian originally turned around and wanted to leave, but he didn't expect that after those people saw him, more than a dozen people jumped on horseback and galloped over and surrounded him.

"Who are you and why are you here?"

A young man in fresh clothes and angry horses stopped in front of Li Xian, sat on a tall war horse and leaned over slightly and asked. Although he spoke in a rather calm tone, the arrogance and vigilance of Li Xian in it did not intend to hide it. This man looked to be twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a long figure, a slightly pale face, and good skin that looked like a virgin. Wearing a long robe, his appearance is very elegant and extraordinary, but Li Xian can see that this person must be a master. Let's not talk about his easy and natural horse skills when he starts and stops suddenly, but only that he betrays his identity with a thick layer of calluses on his tiger's mouth.

"Me? It's just passers-by, and I'm a little tired from the long journey, so I'm going to rest here for a while. ”

Li Xian replied.

"Long journey? Where did you come from and where are you going? ”

The young man asked, carefully examining Li Xian's clothes and the two divine horses beside him.

This person's face was calm, but his eyes were extremely bright, staring at Li Xian, who suddenly had the illusion of being targeted by a poisonous snake. There was a long thing hanging on the side of this man's war horse, wrapped in cloth, and Li Xian could see at a glance that it was a long lance. The horse lance is expensive and difficult to practice, but it is not something that a scholar who looks like a scholar should take.

"Where you come from, where you go."

Li Xian said a nonsense that only a monk would say and thought it contained philosophy.

The young man was stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Look at your clean clothes, there are two or three blades of grass on your shoes, but it is expected that you have just stepped on them and stuck to them, your horse looks very good, and it is not dirty and tired, and you say that you have come from a long way away, and it is clear that you are lying."

He looked at Li Xian and said.

Li Xian chuckled: "I like to be clean, and I have to change clothes and wash horses every day." ”

The young man scoffed, "You and I are a three-year-old? Every time you change clothes and wash the horse, then ...... What about your package? ”

He pointed to the black knife in Li Xian's hand, and then pointed to the hard bow and quiver hanging on the big black horse: "Don't you think it's too ridiculous to tell a lie?" ”

Li Xian was about to speak, but he heard the middle-aged brocade-clothed man who had already walked not far away: "Renren, don't scare him." ”

The young man pointed at Li Xian and said: "The proprietor, this person has a thick layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth, with knives and arrows, if you are not mistaken, one of his horses is still a famous Khitan Botawu, so suspicious, his subordinates also have to be careful." ”

The middle-aged man walked over as he spoke: "There are dozens of you, and he is only one person, are you still afraid that he will not succeed?" ”

The young man smiled bitterly, and said in his heart, What am I afraid of, but I am not afraid of what danger you will encounter? I have to play something missing, why am I so unlucky, I was actually picked by you as a personal guard. This errand is done, and when I go back, I am afraid that my father will also be scolded, and if those civil officials know about it, my sin will be even greater.

"Huh?"

The middle-aged man walked about three meters in front of Li Xian, and suddenly let out a sound of surprise.

"Black Knife, Black Horse...... Only one set of black armor is missing...... Could it be that person? ”

The middle-aged man suddenly laughed, and carefully looked at Li Xian's appearance. He looked at it very carefully, as if Li Xian had a few delicate and beautiful flowers on his body.

"Sure enough, the hero is a teenager, Yan Yun...... That's your name? ”

Hearing Yan Yun's words, Li Xian's pupils shrank sharply, the black knife was in his hand, the big black horse was less than a meter away from him, I don't know why, Li Xian suddenly had an urge to slash the middle-aged man and then ride on the horse and run.
