readx; Yixian County is close to the Wei River, the Wei River torrent is mighty in the Tang Dynasty, the tributaries are like silver snakes meandering, the jade belt lingers, the artificial channels are staggered like a net, the lakes and pools are dotted, the mountains are densely forested, the flat land is overgrown, the waterside aquatic plants are luxuriant, the shipping is extremely developed, you can often take a boat when you go out, there is a big wharf outside the city of Yixian, the white sails on the wharf, the boats are densely arranged, the mast is like a forest, it is like the water town Zeguo, Li Qingan led the army to gallop through the wharf, a soldier went to inquire about the news, and came back to report: "Report to the general, The big ship carrying the Longyou Army left an hour ago and would dock at the wharf of Yiwu Town. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Li Qing'an shook his war horse and chased eastward along the riverbank, the Arabian horse and horse were extremely fast, galloping like the wind, only half an hour, he saw a big ship sailing in the Wei River from a distance, and it was still ten miles away from the wharf of Yiwu Town.

Not long after, the big ship slowly docked at the wharf of Yiwu Town, Yue Ning was a little uneasy, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong for him to bring Li Qingan to chase their general, so he had to whisper: "It's this big ship, our general and more than 20 subordinates are on the boat." ”

The big ship was detained, and the passengers on the ship began to get off the ship one after another, at this time, more than 20 burly men appeared from the big boat, the leader of the man was powerful, with a short beard, and was about 30 years old, although Li Qingan did not know this person, but he intuitively felt that this person should be Li Sheng, the general of Longyou.

Li Qing'an's intuition is right, this burly man is the general of the Shenwu Army Li Sheng, he was born in the Li clan of Longxi, Tianbao four years in the army, in Longyou repeatedly made military exploits, especially in the eighth year of Tianbao, Ge Shuhan attacked the hinterland of Tubo, in the battle of Hengji, he led a hundred soldiers to attack the Tubo grain and grass logistics land, with a surprise annihilation of more than 2,000 people, a sensation in Longyou, from the lieutenant to Lang general, although he was still young at this time, but his general style has been revealed, becoming the best among the young generals.

When the battle of Shibao City broke out in the sixth year of Tianbao, Li Sheng was only twenty years old, he was only a lieutenant at that time, and he also participated in the battle of Shibao City, although he was in a humble position at the time, he also saw Li Qing'an who came to Longyou to participate in the battle on behalf of Anxi, and after many years, Li Sheng still recognized Li Qing'an standing on the dock at a glance, and saw him looking at himself with a smile.

He was stunned in his heart, and before he could think about it, he walked forward quickly, knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists and saluted: "The last general, Li Sheng, the general of the Shenwu Army, see the general." ”

Li Qingan stepped forward to help him up and said with a smile: "General Li, I chased all the way and almost let you run." ”

Li Sheng's mind turned, and suddenly saw Yue Ning next to him, he realized that Li Qingan was actually chasing after him, Li Sheng couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, with Li Qing'an's identity as ruling the world, he actually valued himself so much, and Li Qing'an was already the envoy of Longyou at this time, and he should be his boss.

"General, the humble post was ordered by Marshal Geshu to disband on the spot, not intentionally leaving the army."

Li Sheng took out Ge Shuhan's military order, and gave it to Li Qing'an with both hands, Li Qing'an took it, and tore it apart without looking at it, and said: "Ge Shuhan is no longer the envoy of Longyoujie, all his orders about Longyou, from now on, you are still the Longyou army, I will not allow you to leave the army, otherwise you will be punished by military law!" ”

Li Sheng was awe-struck, clenched his fists and said, "The last general will obey the order!" ”

Since then, Li Qing'an's heart has been put down, and he has undoubtedly added a wing to Li Sheng, a tiger general, Li Qing'an is in a good mood, and immediately said: "General Li will go to Yixian with me first, and I will naturally arrange your military affairs." ”

Li Sheng hesitated, he went to Yixian to fight against Ge Shuhan, Ge Shuhan is his boss, although it is not very important to him, but after all, he has been obedient to orders for many years, and there are so many old comrades-in-arms who have fought side by side, and he will fight directly in the blink of an eye, he can't do it, in fact, he has also considered defecting to the Anxi Army, but he is worried that Li Qingan will order him to attack the Longyou Army, so that he can bypass Yixian, and now, Li Qing'an's attention to him certainly moved him, but he really went to fight against the Longyou Army, and he couldn't accept it.

"General, I want to go back to Longyou and continue to defend Shibao City!"

Li Qingan understood his thoughts, so he patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Don't worry!" People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, I will not let you do difficult things. ”

Li Sheng was overjoyed, "Thank you for the general's support, the last general is willing to serve the general!" ”

At this time, his subordinates led the horses ashore, and everyone got on their horses and followed Li Qing'an, on the way, Yue Ning got an Arab horse, he was very excited all the way, and he galloped on horseback, and he shot arrows with a bow, which aroused the competitiveness of Li Qing'an's own soldiers, and they wanted to compete with him in riding and shooting.

Li Qing'an glanced at it, and saw that Li Sheng's horse was hanging a big bow, which was one person tall, and he could see that the bow was strong, in Li Qing'an's memory, with such a big bow, except for himself, there was only Gao Xianzhi.

Li Sheng felt Li Qing'an's gaze, he smiled, took off the bow and handed it to Li Qing'an, "This is the bow that my grandfather passed on to me, it's called chasing clouds." ”

Li Qing'an took the bow, and felt that the hand felt excellent at the beginning, the bow body was simple and unpretentious, and the place where he held the bow was polished brightly, obviously for some years, he gently pulled the string half-open, and the string popped out, 'Hum! Airplanes! He sighed, "It's a good bow!" ”

Although Li Qing'an had a shoulder injury, he didn't dare to pull the bow with all his strength, but it was only half-opened, which had made Li Sheng's arrogance in his heart suddenly subsided, he was a master of bows and arrows, from Li Qing'an's bow posture, he knew that the rumors of the world's first arrow were true, he wanted to ask Li Qing'an to shoot an arrow, but he was humble and his mouth moved, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Li Qing'an saw his thoughts, and he knew in Anxi that Li Sheng was famous for his bow and arrow, one hundred and fifty steps away, and he was called 'ten thousand enemies' in Longyou! This person was born in the Guanlong family, and he has always been arrogant, and it can be seen from the fact that he dared to bargain with himself just now, although he was not convinced by himself, he was not convinced in his heart, and if he wanted to recover his heart, he had to put some thought into it.

Li Qing'an returned the bow and arrow to him and said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that General Li Sheng's bow and arrow are clever, how about showing us how about it?" ”

Li Sheng hurriedly said modestly: "In front of the general, dare to be presumptuous? ”

"Okay, it's normal to compete in the army, my own soldiers are good at bows and arrows, General Li Sheng might as well guide them."

Although Li Sheng was arrogant, he also knew that the army was strictly ranked, he was just a small general, how could he dare to be presumptuous in front of Li Qing'an, he only pushed but refused, Li Qing'an gave his personal soldier Zhang Yongliang a look.

Zhang Yongliang said with a smile: "General Li, the next is the third consecutive championship of the pro-soldier bow and arrow competition, I will shoot an arrow, please General Li for advice." ”

Zhang Yongliang had a big waist and a round waist, holding a five-stone hard bow, he looked around, and saw a young poplar tree a hundred steps away, the thickness of the bowl, so he shouted: "Look at me shooting that poplar!" ”

He rushed out diagonally, drew the bow perfectly, shot an arrow a hundred steps away, an arrow was shooting at a small tree, the arrow was strong, the tail of the arrow was still trembling and shaking, the soldiers suddenly cheered like thunder, Zhang Yongliang rode back triumphantly, this arrow he shot extremely smoothly, it can be said that it is his rare achievement in the past year, Li Sheng also nodded slightly and praised: "Yes, there is already a bit of a magic arrow." ”

Zhang Yongliang stepped forward and bowed and said, "Please advise General Li!" ”

At this point, Li Sheng didn't shoot anymore, he took off his cloud-chasing bow, but he didn't look at the tree, it was a dead thing, it was not a martial arts, he looked up and looked around, just to see a magpie flying up from a lush tree, about two hundred steps apart, but Li Sheng was motionless, his sharp eyes stared at the magpie's flight trajectory, at this time all the soldiers felt Li Sheng's target, countless pairs of eyes looked towards the magpie that was flying happily, when the magpie flew to about one hundred and fifty steps, Li Sheng pulled the bow and released the arrow, the arrow was like lightning, An arrow shoots the magpie out of the air.

After a while, the soldiers broke out into a burst of warm applause, and Li Qingan nodded slightly, yes, but he can compete with Nan Jiyun.

Li Sheng's face was swollen red, and he hugged Li Qing'an and said, "It's ugly." ”

After speaking, he looked at Li Qing'an with some expectations, and looked forward to shooting an arrow in his heart, although Li Qing'an was known as the first arrow in the world, but he had never seen it, and he was more or less regretful, but Li Qing'an said lightly: "I'm sorry, I have an injury in my left shoulder, and I can't shoot an arrow within a year, which disappointed General Li." ”

Li Sheng's face turned even redder, Li Qingan actually saw his thoughts, and at this time, Li Qingan continued: "Using wood as an arrow, you can fight for a moment, if you use people as arrows, you can sweep through Chief Hu, and use the world to calm the world, General Li is willing to use wooden arrows, or is he willing to use human arrows?" ”

Li Qing'an's words were like a slap in the face, so that Li Sheng's heart moved when he heard it, Li Sheng had also thought about these words, but the Longyou Army had a lot of relationships, and it was difficult for non-Ge Shuhan's henchmen to be promoted, Li Siye Tianbao joined the army in the first year, only four years earlier than him, and is now the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, in charge of the heavy land in the river, and Li Guangbi, who is very familiar with him, is similar to his own ability, and has been repeatedly degraded in the major festivals, and now he has been promoted to the champion general of the third grade, the governor of Tocharo, and those who are qualified in the middle and upper ranks, such as Li Fei brothers, Bai Xiaode, Now they are all generals, as the governor of a state, at least from the third rank, and their Tianbao has been in the army for four years, has been eleven years, and has made outstanding achievements, compared to those Gao Xiuyan promoted by Brother Shuhan, Tu Pai Guiren and the like, I don't know how many times the credit is greater, those people have been generals, generals, and he is still a small five-rank general, there is no title, no loose officials, he has reached the age of establishment, where is he standing? How many more years can you fight?

And now, Li Qingan's words undoubtedly pointed out the future for him.

Li Sheng could no longer contain the excitement in his heart, he immediately bowed down and said: "My subordinates are willing to be the arrows of the general, sweep away the evil demons of Fanbang, and calm my Tang Dynasty." ”

Li Qingan smiled slightly, this is the effect he wants, and the Anxi Army has added another fierce general.

．．．．．．．． Li Sheng did not participate in the campaign against Geshuhan, Li Qing'an appointed him as the military envoy of the Shenwu Army, promoted him to the rank of general, Zhuangwu general, and ordered him to still go to defend Shibao City, Li Sheng gathered a thousand old troops, and rushed to Longyou three days later.

Geshuhan's army of the northern invaders was already less than thirty miles away from the mouth of the valley, and the 50,000-strong army was not in a hurry to attack, but marched step by step to consolidate the fortress that had been occupied.

The camp of Geshuhan is enshrined in a large open space on the east bank of the valley water, the mouth of the valley is about ten miles wide, the two sides are stretching mountains, the mountains are majestic and precipitous, the camp of Geshuhan is located in a high place, there are camp fences and lookouts around it, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The tents in the camp are one by one, dense and dense, it has just rained, the river valley is hot and humid, the mosquitoes are fierce, the Longyou army from the plateau is not accustomed to the climate of the Guanzhong River Valley, it is very difficult to endure, when the night falls, the soldiers are hiding in the camp tent, smearing the whole body with wormwood juice, there are also soldiers hiding behind the camp tent and pouring themselves with cold water to drive away the scorching heat, only a team of fully armed patrol soldiers patrol around the camp tent, and from time to time reprimand the naked soldiers who take a shower.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Ge Shuhan was wearing a fine linen robe, lying on a bamboo chair with his eyes closed, and the two concubines next to him were fanning him on the left and right, and the other concubine was soaking his feet in hot water.

"His grandmother's, is this place for people?"

Ge Shuhan suddenly opened his eyes, and scolded angrily in a low voice, although the concubine gave him a fan, but the boredom in his heart was difficult to soothe it, now he is no longer the Longyou Army, Li Longji renamed his army the Lianghu Army, although there is no explanation, but Ge Shuhan has already guessed that it must be the meaning of Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake, that is to say, he will be stationed in Hongzhou, Ezhou and Yuezhou in the future, although the land is vast, but the population is not large, far less rich than Longyou, thinking that he will officially bid farewell to Longyou, Ge Shuhan's heart is full of loss.

Not only is it lost, Ge Shuhan is also full of unfairness, the old emperor actually asked him to deal with Li Qing'an, why didn't he let Gao Xianzhi go, is it because Gao Xianzhi is a Shu army, and his brother Shuhan is an outsider?

Frankly speaking, Ge Shuhan was quite jealous of Li Qing'an, he knew that Li Qing'an had a powerful weapon in his hand, Tianhuo Thunder, in the Battle of Shibao City that year, Li Qing'an relied on this weapon to resist the Tubo army that was dozens of times more than his own, although Li Qing'an did not use this weapon in the battle against An Lushan, but it was like a knife hanging above his head, and no one knew when it would fall.

At this time, Ge Shuhan also had a trace of regret in his heart, in fact, he should still go back to Longyou to divide the party, there would be no embarrassment like now, most of the families of officers and soldiers are in Longyou, he doesn't know how to explain to the brothers.

"Forget it, don't wash it, you all go!"

Ge Shuhan waved his hand irritably, washing his feet every day, he was about to turn into a turtle, and several maids were so frightened that they hurriedly dried his feet, put on cloth shoes, and took the basin away.

Ge Shuhan stood up, slowly walked to the map, looked at the map in a daze, Li Longji gave him the task of occupying Fengxiang Mansion and cutting off the support of the Anxi Army, but the information he got was that Li Qing'an Chen Bing 60,000 was in Yi County and Chencang County, blocking him in the Xiegu Road, the main force of the 60,000 Anxi Army! All of them have experienced a hundred battles and fought out of one big battle after another, and they are not the young soldiers of the Guanzhong Army who have never seen blood.

"His grandmother's, tell Lao Tzu to fight a tough battle, no way!"

Ge Shuhan scolded angrily, at this moment, he made a decision, confronted Li Qingan, and let Gao Xianzhi attack Guanzhong first, he just had such a little capital, what else did he have after fighting?

At this time, a personal soldier hurriedly ran to the tent door and reported: "Commander, Li Qing'an has sent a messenger to meet the commander." ”

"Bring him here!"

Ge Shuhan was a little puzzled, what did Li Qing'an send a messenger to look for him? Do you want to persuade yourself?

After a while, several pro-soldiers brought in a young civilian officer, who bowed to Ge Shuhan and said, "Pei Mingyi, the Sima branch of the Anxi Military Tent, will see Marshal Ge Shu. ”

Pei Mingyi is Pei Min's eldest son, and he was brought into the army by Li Qing'an, the second son Pei Zhili served as a soldier in Liangzhou, and Cao participated in the military, while the eldest son was an assistant to Sima on the march.

Ge Shuhan didn't know Pei Mingyi, but when he saw that Li Qing'an sent a civil official to see him, he obviously didn't come to write a war letter, so his face softened a little, and said, "What is the matter with your general sending you?" ”

"My general sent me to deliver a letter and a gift."

As he spoke, he presented a letter to Ge Shuhan, who glanced at a red silk package behind him, which was held by one of his personal soldiers in a red lacquered wooden plate, and Ge Shuhan couldn't help but feel a little vigilant in his heart, and asked, "What kind of gift is that?" ”

The soldier said: "Dashuai, it seems to be wine." ”

"Wine?" Ge Shuhan was even more strange, glanced at Pei Mingyi and said, "What did your general do when he sent me wine, now I don't dare to drink." ”

Pei Mingyi smiled slightly and said: "Brother Shu Dashuai doesn't know, this wine is not ordinary, it is the medicinal wine brought by my general from Xinde, which is soaked in the Punjabi giant scorpion, which is said to be very effective in treating foot pain, and it is a gift from my general to Geshu Dashuai." ”

As he spoke, he untied the red silk, and on the red plate was a one-foot-high crystal bottle, translucent, Ge Shuhan stepped forward and looked carefully, only to see that there was a huge scorpion in the crystal bottle, half a foot long, and the appearance was hideous, at this time Ge Shuhan's face was even more relaxed, nodded and smiled: "It's really embarrassing for your general, tens of thousands of miles away, you actually brought this murderous thing, I have never seen it, I accepted the gift of your general." ”

In the letter, Li Qing'an's tone was sincere, pointing out that it was unwise for him to take refuge in Li Longji, Li Longji was very old, and he had not been in for a few years, judging from the fact that his successor had been chaotic all these years, there would be a fight after Li Longji's death, and his brother Shuhan might not be reused at that time, so it was better to abandon the secret and join the Anxi army as soon as possible, and he could also seek a future for his descendants in the future.

The meaning of Li Qingan's letter is very plain, that is, he wants Ge Shuhan to take refuge in himself, and he implicitly told Ge Shuhan that if he follows him, his children and grandchildren will also be shaded, what this means is self-evident.

Ge Shuhan sighed for a long time, and said to Pei Mingyi: "Please tell His Royal Highness General King Zhao, just say that his heart Brother Shuhan has received it, but Ge Shuhan first voted for the prison country, and then voted for the emperor, the time is less than a month, and he wants to vote for King Zhao again, so who has my brother Shuhan become, please tell him, I forgive my fate." ”

Ge Shuhan knew that Li Qing'an saluted first and then soldiers, and a fierce battle was inevitable.
