Chapter 344: Troubled Times Are Coming

"Li Xin, you are very smart, the old man now regrets coming to you with some regrets." Wei Xuan looked at Li Xin and said with some concern.

"In the land of Guanzhong, get rid of me Li Xin, I'm afraid no one can help the boss." Li Xin said in a low voice. Wei Xuan is very loyal to Da Sui, it goes without saying, but he is also a human being, and he is also selfish. If Li Yuan is replaced, no matter how much Li Yuan trusts him, he will not let him continue to control the government, not to mention that there are people under Li Yuan, these new nobles will replace the old nobles, Wei Xuan is old, I am afraid that there is only one way home, how can Wei Xuan agree? The same is true for the Netherworld.

"You said yes, what do you want?" Wei Xuanjing's light flickered, looked at Li Xin and said.

"The Land of the Western Regions." Li Xin didn't think about it and said: "There is also a depreciation of Li Yuan as a concubine." Li Xin's eyes suddenly became extremely gloomy, and he snorted coldly.

"Li Xin, you are really shameless, you slept with someone else's daughter, and then you still want to attack your father-in-law." The Yin World Master said disdainfully.

"Each other, this is what he Li Yuan owes me, not what I asked him for, didn't he just say that he was a powerful family back then, and I was a concubine? The whole city knows that my Li Xin's prestige has plummeted, and now I wonder what kind of thoughts he will have after he is demoted to a commoner. Li Xin said triumphantly and loudly. He looked so crazy that people couldn't see through his true thoughts.

"I'm afraid the old man can't promise you this." Wei Xuan said lightly: "If he rebels, the old man will destroy his nine clans, of course, the old man will spare the lives of your two women." Liang Guogong, I heard that your father is now serving under Li Yuan, Li Yuan is really clever! ā€

"That's really worthy of me Li Xin." Li Xin had more murderous intent in his eyes, looked at Wei Xuan, and said, "Let me send troops, let the king give an order!" I, Li Xin, immediately led my troops eastward. I, Li Xin, accept the emperor's favor, naturally I want to serve the country, but I don't want to be branded as a thief, the boss should understand. ā€

"Yes, if there really is that day, the old man will definitely let the acting king issue an order to recruit the metropolitan governor into Beijing." Wei Xuanyin's beard trembled, but his brows were inadvertently furrowed and said loudly.

"That's for the best, then I'll wait for the will of the boss." Li Xin nodded, and greeted Shen Qianqiu and the others with a smile and rode towards Juxian.

"Boss, do you really need Li Xin to make a move? I think Li Xin is very ambitious. Let him enter the customs, it is not good for us! The Netherworld Master whispered.

"Compared to Li Yuan, I would rather be Li Xin. Li Yuan is behind the Guanlong family, Dugu and Wei's are all supporting Li Yuan, Li Yuan will soon be able to grasp the situation in the imperial court when he enters Guanzhong, but Li Xin is different, he has no one in his hands, after entering Guanzhong. If you want to grasp the situation in the imperial court, you need our help, and even more help from the Guanzhong family. Wei Xuan was cunning and said proudly: "Li Xin is a smart person. He must know this, if he didn't have a grudge against Li Yuan, he would never have agreed to deal with Li Yuan. It's very difficult, but it's very easy to deal with Li Xin. Killed Li Yuan. Let's find a way to destroy Li Xin. ā€

After hearing this, the Yin World Master nodded, and had to admit that Wei Xuan was really cunning.

"Li Xin also has to do this, let's go! Since Li Xin has already agreed to our plan, then we are half of the success, and the remaining half is up to the destiny of heaven. Wei Xuanhua's white beard trembled, although he hated Li Xin very much, but at this time, he had to find Li Xin. In fact, not long ago, Luoyang, the eastern capital, came to the document, wanting Wei Xuan to arrest Li Xin and take it to the eastern capital for interrogation, but Wei Xuan refused, and he needed Li Xin's to deal with other forces in the Guan Long family. As for the king of Yue in the eastern capital, he didn't take it to heart, there was only one throne, either the king of Yue or the acting king, each of them had their own courtiers, how could Wei Xuan care about King Yue's thoughts.

There are also contradictions within the Guanlong family, Wei Xuan and Dugu have different powers, resulting in different choices between the two sides, and Wei Xuan has no choice but to find Li Xin, which is also a natural thing.

"You are Wang Junkuo? The martial arts are not bad. By the time Li Xin arrived in Juxian County, it was already evening, and after teasing Li Tong for a while, he saw Luo Shixin and others come to meet him with Wang Junkuo.

"The villain is presumptuous." The corners of Wang Junkuo's mouth showed a trace of bitterness, when he knew that it was Li Xin who attacked him, he disappeared without a trace with a little anger in his heart, in the world, who didn't know that the first military general of the Great Sui was Li Xin. If you dare to raise a knife at him, you are simply looking for death.

"There are soldiers and horses under the command of this general, and I need a talent like the general, I don't know if the general is willing to help me." Li Xin looked at Wang Junkuo and said. Wang Junkuo, a general, still has the ability, in Li Xin's army, in terms of martial arts, when Luo Shixin, Pei Yuanqing, Wei Chigong, Su Dingfang, Guo Xiaoke and others are in front, now there is one more Wang Junkuo, and there are also a number of martial arts, Li Xin is still willing to recruit this person.

"The villain is willing to submit to the Metropolitan Governor." Wang Junkuo said without thinking. Just kidding, he has now seen Li Xin's strength, and now Luo Shixin, Pei Yuanqing, Qin Qiong and others around him are all powerful characters, with these generals joining them, Li Xin's final development prospect will definitely be above Li Mi, and more importantly, Li Xin has occupied Liangzhou, behind him is the Western Regions, and the entire Liangzhou is under his control. Wang Junkuo did not hesitate to choose to join Li Xin's command.

"That's very good. After returning to Liangzhou, he will be conferred an official position. Li Xin did not have any sense of accomplishment, as his power grew, there would be more famous ministers under his command, and these famous generals at the moment, Li Xin believed that they were enough to crush anyone under Li Yuan's command. One more Wang Junkuo is not much, and one less is not less.

"Thank you, Governor." Wang Junkuo breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't have any dissatisfaction in his heart, although his martial arts were good, he was definitely not the opponent of these people around him. As long as Li Xin can recognize himself, he believes that he will definitely be able to seize a higher position with his broadsword.

"Shixin, send an order to the three armies, leave early tomorrow morning, and we will return to Lanzhou." Li Xin stood up and said loudly. Lanzhou is his foundation, and only when he gets there can he command his own army, sweep across the Central Plains, and establish his own hegemony.

Li Xin led the army to Lanzhou the next day, at this time, the world was turbulent, especially in the area of Shandong and Henan, after Li Mi captured Xingyang, occupied Luokoucang, the momentum was shocked, hundreds of thousands of people followed him, so that his prestige reached the peak, Zhai Rang did not dare to slack off when he saw this, not only offered the position of leader, but also built yƬ Li Mi called the emperor, commanding the world.

However, Li Mi was not carried away by the victory in front of him, he did not claim the title of emperor, but called the duke, known as the duke of Wei. He asked people to set up an altar in the southern suburbs of Gongxian County, worship the heavens and ascend the throne, the year is known as the first year of Yongping, and the documents issued are all the palace of Marshal Wei. Chai Xiaohe was appointed as the military advisor, Fang Yanzao as the left long history, Bing Yuanzhen as the right long history, Yang Defang as the left Sima, and Zheng Detao as the right Sima. He also named Zhai Rang as the prince of Shangzhuguo, Situ and Dongjun. Shan Xiongxin was appointed as the general of the left Wuhou, Xu Shiyun was appointed as the general of the right Wuhou, Zu Junyan was appointed as the secretary, and the rest of the people were awarded official positions according to their ranks. Then Luokou was used as the capital, and the beginning of commanding the world began.

It can be said that the news of Li Mi's claim to be the Duke of Wei spread all over the world, and the world was shaken, and those anti-thieves seemed to have found the leader, and Meng Rang, the leader of the thieves in Changbai Mountain, led his men and horses to join Li Mi, and others such as Wang Bo and Meng Haigong all sent people to meet Li Mi and worship him as the leader of the alliance. Li Mi's momentum skyrocketed, with more than 100,000 troops, and what was even more terrifying was that he sent Xu Shiji and Meng Rang to lead the army to conquer the tiger prison, take advantage of the victory to enter Luoyang, loot the residents, and burn the Tianjin Bridge. If it weren't for Duan Da and the others to resist with all the troops and horses in the Eastern Capital, I'm afraid that even Luoyang would have been captured.

Although Li Mi did not capture Luoyang in the end, his momentum was rising, and there was no longer any strength to resist him in Shandong. Li Mi thus became the leader of the entire Shandong bandits, he blocked the Grand Canal in Henan, whether it was the money and grain in Yangzhou, or the news of Luoyang, it was difficult to circulate, Li Mi also became the most powerful force in the vicinity, at this time, as long as it was not a fool, it was not possible to know that the Great Sui Dynasty was not good. Even one Li Mi may not be able to be exterminated.

"It's just a little person, at this time, being called Duke Wei can attract the attention of the world, this is not the real king's doing." After Li Xin, who was on the way to Lanzhou, got the news that Li Mi called Wei Gong, he didn't care, but put this information aside, Li Mi seemed to have a chance, but the place in Wagangzhai itself was a place of four wars, and there was no danger to defend around, and the interior of Wagangzhai was not united, and Li Mi let those generals each command their subordinates, which explained the problem. Li Xin only focused on Li Yuan in Bingzhou. He believed that the current Li Yuan was also accumulating strength, and when the time came, he would raise troops to the south and seize the rivers and mountains of the Great Sui.

It was as Li Xin guessed that after Li Yuan stayed in Taiyuan, he began to exterminate the thieves in Bingzhou one by one, and fought with Lishan snitch Zhen Zhai'er in the Bird Mouse Valley, and got tens of thousands of elites, and selected thousands of their elites to join the Taiyuan garrison, let Li Shimin train, and also bought a large number of war horses from the Turks to form cavalry, these people were the most powerful army under Li Shimin's command later. And Li Shimin himself secretly befriended heroes, recruited fugitives, and recruited all kinds of talents. The Li family's father and son finally created their own power in Taiyuan, and with the support of the Guan Long family behind them, Li Yuan's power became stronger and stronger.
