"I've been fighting for many years, don't you even have this common sense, if you want to kill me, I'll burn you first." On the mountainside, Li Xin looked at the fire under the mountain, which was arranged by Jinyiwei a long time ago, although the arrangement was a little hasty, but it was still easy to kill a force.

"Your Majesty, this should be the remnant of Zhao Feng, I don't know if the warrior Tong can be inside?" Shen Qianqiu looked at the black-clothed man at the bottom of the mountain, and at this moment he was screaming in the flames.

"Samurai Tong is a very patient and cautious person, and he won't be in there unless he sees my corpse." Li Xin shook his head and said, "Although he is in Jinan, he will definitely not come out at this moment." There's definitely no him in it. ”

"Your Majesty, someone is killing you from the valley?" Cui Zhan rushed over and said loudly, with a hint of horror in his eyes, this man is really powerful, in this case, he can turn defeat into victory, so that the main force of the Great Hong Sect will disappear at this moment, although he ran away from the main messenger, but when Li Xin returns to Luoyang, the land of Shandong will definitely be washed in blood, as long as those hidden in the official mansion are removed, the Great Hong Sect will lose the soil for survival, and there is no need to exist.

"Don't worry, these bandits won't dare to come." Li Xin said indifferently. He knew that those bandits were just tempted by the samurai, and used a lot of money to buy these people, and now that a force on this side was burned to death, how could those bandits take the bait?

Sure enough, there was a shout of killing in the distance, but soon there was another exclamation, and I saw countless people fleeing in a hurry, where did they dare to attack Li Xin.

"Look, it's just a bunch of bandits, can you continue to fight in this situation?" Li Xin said proudly.

"Your Majesty." Everyone spoke one after another, and the worried look on their faces quickly disappeared without a trace, they didn't care how many people died. I only hope that Li Xin can live safely, which is tantamount to meritorious service.

Li Xin left Jinan, and the charred corpse at the mouth of the valley was soon discovered, and it was rumored for a while, because no one knew what the origin of these people was, but as a big family like the Cui family, he still knew the reason, and when Uncle Cui got the news, Cui Zhan had already returned to the mansion.

"The old man calculates and calculates others all his life, and calculates and calculates. That is, this time I got a big bargain. After listening to Cui Zhan's report, Uncle Cui suddenly showed a hint of pride on his face, who to invest in is not as suitable as investing in the emperor today, the relationship between the Cui family and Li Xin is not very good, even if Cui Susu is there, it is the same. Jiangshan Sheji, how can a woman be compared, so the Cui family can't put all their hopes on a woman. Cui Shuzhong just wanted Li Xin to know. The Cui family has truly surrendered to Li Xin at this moment.

This time, Uncle Cui made the right bet, Dahongjiao, these guys who can't get on the stage, how can they be Li Xin's opponents, three times and two times. I didn't even see the face, so I was burned clean by Li Xin, the only pity was that I ran away from the samurai tong, just a samurai tong. Isn't it easy to find them!

"It's really bold to let the people help them find and find that samurai tong. Assassin the king, a character like Jing Ke! Uncle Cui patted his chair and said with a smile: "I think what era is this, the rule of the Tang Dynasty has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if something happens to Your Majesty, there are some important ministers and generals, the King of Han can still easily ascend the throne and inherit the position, and the only threat to the Turks is also defeated in this war, tsk, this time is not the past." ”

"It's good that the Lord can see it clearly." Cui Zhan also said: "Your Majesty is very powerful today, looking at the emperors of previous dynasties, I don't know which one can be compared with Your Majesty." Since the army was raised to the present, at least it has not failed. ”

Uncle Cui stroked his gray beard again and said, "You just said that the emperor suggested that I go to Chang'an?" ”

"Yes, the emperor said that he looked forward to seeing you in Chang'an." Cui Zhan hesitated for a while and said, "I don't know what the emperor means by this?" ”

"What else can he do, it's just to look at the reputation of our Kanto family in Kanto, hehe, let's go to Chang'an is fake, but let's search for Samurai Tong is real, His Majesty the Emperor is very powerful! Do you think our Kanto family is really that innocent? No, in the eyes of the emperor, we are all innocent people, the Great Hongjiao can radiate the whole of Shandong in such a short period of time, this is abnormal, His Majesty the Emperor has already suspected that these hateful landlords are strong and want to oppose Your Majesty, then stand up and let His Majesty the Emperor kill them all cleanly, why do you want to do it behind your back, let His Majesty the Emperor think that it is the idea of our family! Uncle Cui showed anger on his face.

"Ahh Cui Zhan obviously didn't expect that behind Li Xin's words was this subtext, and he stood there all of a sudden and didn't know what to do.

"You didn't expect that! You helped His Majesty the Emperor on the front foot, and His Majesty the Emperor on the back foot is going to settle accounts with you. Uncle Cui showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, pointed at Cui Zhan and said: "There are some things that you don't move, and the emperor asks you to check, that is your trust, if the emperor comes to check it himself, it is the biggest crisis, which means that the emperor doesn't trust you anymore." This time, the old man let you go for a while, showing the attitude of my Cui family, otherwise, it would be Jinyiwei who is waiting for the door this time. ”

"The Lord is wise." Cui Zhan was shocked in his heart, he never thought that there were so many things in it, it was unimaginable, and now that he thought about it, he shuddered.

"Summoning the family in Shandong, this matter should also be talked about, this is not my Cui family's business alone, the entire Shandong family must be in it." Uncle Cui sneered: "Can't let our Cui family charge in front, they are watching the joke on the side." My Cui family has made a contribution, and all the big families have benefited, where is there such a good thing! ”

"Yes." Cui Zhan was excited in his heart, this matter was taken by the Cui family, why didn't Li Xin recognize the status of the Cui family! He thought of the tall, muscular figure on the mountainside, and his heart burned for a while.

After Li Xin left Jinan, he did not stay in Shandong, but passed through Bianzhou, and then returned to Luoyang by boat, although he mastered the world, but had to admit that his base camp was still in the Guanzhong area, Chang'an, Luoyang is his base camp. As for Kanto, I'm afraid that for a long time in the future, it will still be under the control of the family, and there is no way to do it.

By the time Li Xin returned to Chang'an, it was already November, the weather had become cold, and the grassland was already covered with heavy snow, and after this war, the living environment of the Turks would deteriorate again, in order to avoid being wiped out by Li Xin's army. Weakened excessively, after the defeat of the Khan, he forcibly relocated the southern tribes to advance further north, which would be a long and painful process.

You must know that when Jieli Khan was at his strongest, the tents of the Turks had already reached the Dingxiang area, and how arrogant the Turks were at that time was different. The soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty have captured Dingxiang, and the cavalry led by Su Dingfang ravaged the entire grassland, and the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, such as Cheng Yanjin, Wang Junkuo, and Li Xiaogong, led an army of 10,000 or tens of thousands. Constant killings or driving the Turks further north, the captured Turkic women were a little better, and they were given to military merit as concubines and slaves. But those Turkic men suffered a great loss, and they must have been sent to build a road.

Although some people left the warmer south with their tribesmen in order to avoid road construction. But in the far north there are more casualties, heavy snow covers the entire grassland, war horses have lost fodder, cattle and sheep are killed and injured countless times, many old people take the initiative to get out of the warm tents, they will go to the depths of the grassland, looking for food, the final result is conceivable, this situation is rare in previous years, this year with the defeat of the Turks, it appeared again.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not be in these, the general Li Jing sat in Taiyuan, supervised the army, he played Li Xin, and prepared to withdraw the army in December to recuperate. Li Xin approved this suggestion, and ordered people to send money and food to the army to reward the soldiers of the three armies, but as for the cattle and sheep, they were not used, and the army marched north, and I don't know how many cattle and sheep they had, except for the ploughing cattle, those sheep will become food for the soldiers.

"Your Majesty, Lord Jinyi Wei Shen is here." On the canal, Li Xin leaned on the canopy boat, with a fishing rod in his hand, fishing, Dugu Feng after months of hard work, he was already pregnant, Li Xin could only come out to relax when he was bored, in this era of extreme lack of entertainment, Li Xin rarely found entertainment at night except for some men and women.

"Let him come!" Li Xin waved his hand and said.

"Your Majesty!" Shen Qianqiu's face showed a hint of panic, bowed to the ground, and said, "Jinyiwei has lost the news of General Li. ”

"General Lee? Xuanba! Li Xin stood up suddenly, and said in a lost voice: "What's the matter, didn't you still receive news from him the day before yesterday?" Not how not there now? Where have his soldiers and horses gone? ”

"Near Jinshan, but there are still a lot of soldiers and horses near the Turkic tent, Ashina Ni said in the book that the speed of the army is too fast, and it may be a trap set by Qi Bi He Li. He suggested that the army should retreat, and His Majesty agreed with him at the beginning. Didn't the minister send His Majesty's edict of retirement? But what the minister was worried about was that he didn't have time to see General Lee. According to reason, General Xuanba will come to the recital in two days, but now, before receiving the recital, the minister is a little worried! ”

"No, wait." Li Xin showed a hint of panic in his expression and said, "Maybe the messenger is slow, just wait." ”

"The minister has already asked people to look for it, and he will definitely be able to find General Xuanba." Cold sweat broke out on Shen Qianqiu's forehead, and at this time, he knew that Li Xuanba's status in Li Xinxin was definitely not as simple as an ordinary brother-in-law. Li Xin doesn't know how many women there are, and there are even more such cheap brothers-in-law, but the only one who really keeps him in mind may be Li Xuanba.

"Immediately let Su Dingfang strengthen the monitoring of Jinshan, if Li Xuanba really goes to fight Jinshan, immediately lead the army to support, since you want to do it, then do a lot, simply eradicate Jinshan." Li Xin gritted his teeth and said.

Who is Li Xuanba, he is the first fierce general of the Tang Dynasty, a sledgehammer has guarded the northwest for so many years, and there is no problem in the northwest, the ethnic minorities in the northwest worship this kind of man with strong force the most, Ma Chao was like this back then, and now Li Xuanba is the second Ma Chao, how can Li Xin easily let Li Xuanba fall into the grassland.

"Yes." Shen Qianqiu was shocked by Li Xin's sternness, and hurriedly ordered someone to fly a pigeon to spread the book to Taiyuan.

Because of Li Xuanba's affairs, Li Xin did not have the patience to stay in Luoyang, and led the guards who stayed in Luoyang to Chang'an. What he didn't know was that in the distant steppe, his fears really came true, and Li Xuanba, the first fierce general of the Tang Dynasty, really decided to make a move against the Turkic Khan's Jinshan.

"General, shouldn't this kind of thing wait for His Majesty's holy decree to come?" Ashina looked at Li Xuanba with some embarrassment, this thin man, there seemed to be a huge amount of power in his body, this power made him feel frightened, so he even became cautious when he spoke, for fear of angering the other party.

"Your Majesty is still in the Central Plains at the moment, where do you know everything that happened in Jinshan, Ashina Simo led the army back and left, although Qibi He Li is still in Jinshan, but he doesn't have many soldiers and horses, as for Jieli Khan, this defeat, it is not only the soldiers and horses that have been lost, but also his power, a great Khan has no power, how long do you think it can last?" Li Xuanba said indifferently.

"But we don't have enough soldiers and horses, thousands of miles of battle, we only have 50,000 soldiers and horses left, and the Turkic tent soldiers are much more than us!" Ashina Ni said with some concern, in fact, he still admired Li Xuanba's decision, if it weren't for his relatively few soldiers and horses, he was really willing to accompany Li Xuanba to do this vote.

"Therefore, we should withdraw our troops for the time being, because with our 50,000 cavalry, the situation on Jinshan has not deteriorated, and some Turkic tribes such as Qibi He Li really want to abolish Jieli Khan, but with us on our side, they don't want us to take advantage, so they haven't done it yet, but once we withdraw our troops, they will do it immediately." Li Xuanba said with confidence.

"This, what if!" Ashina Ni asked with some concern.

"If they don't make a move, I will immediately withdraw from the army, although I, Li Xuanba, have a fierce personality, but I am definitely not a person who takes the lives of my brothers seriously. You can rest assured of this! Li Xuanba patted Ashina's shoulder and said.

"Okay, then I'll make a bet too." Ashina thought for a moment and nodded violently. (To be continued.) )
