In the dark night, above Tongguan, Pei Renji stood there quietly, as Li Jing was already the prince of the county, and he was still the marquis, which made him a little dissatisfied in his heart, this dissatisfaction was not directed at Li Xin, but at Pei Shiju, he knew that because of Pei Shiju's existence, Li Xin would not let himself rush to the title of county duke. This means balancing the government and the opposition.

"Father." Pei Xingjian walked over, there was a faint hint of heroism on his immature face, at a young age, he had also experienced several wars, which made him gradually mature.

"Your brother is a pioneer, but he has already arrived?" Pei Renji didn't look back, his face showed a hint of pride, a double marquis, not anyone can do it, especially under Li Xin's command, it is very difficult to get the title, Li Xin in order to maintain the balance, Pei Renji is suppressed on the title, but Pei Yuanqing is still very important. In this expedition to Luoyang, Pei Yuanqing is the vanguard general.

"Didn't the prime minister say that he had reached an agreement with Wang Shichong?" Pei Xingjian said with some hesitation: "Wang Shichong went to the emperor, declared himself a minister to the prime minister, and sent the prince as a proton, isn't this sincerity?" ”

"The prime minister has a good saying, how can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch?" Pei Renji said disdainfully: "Wang Shi is cunning by nature, he said to surrender to the prime minister, if the time comes, he will definitely attack the prime minister with a backhand, not to mention, the soldiers are treacherous!" is about to attack suddenly, and Wang Shichong who hit him was caught off guard, and before Li Zhao reacted, he solved Wang Shichong. ”

Pei Xingjian still showed a trace of puzzlement, in the end, he was a young man, he didn't know the danger between the national wars, and now he basically said that he was a three-legged leader in the world, and if he wanted to solve one of them, he could only quickly solve one of the enemies. It's like the Jin Kingdom back then. The state of Shu was resolved very quickly, and by the time the state of Wu reacted, Liu Chan had already surrendered. Now Li Xin is the same, only when Li Shimin has not reacted, can he solve all this in order to quickly achieve Li Xin's goal.

Soon. There were countless flames in the distance, and I saw countless soldiers and horses coming from afar, and the person at the head was holding a bright silver hammer, it was Pei Yuanqing, although he was young and relatively young, but the perennial battles had made this young general mature day by day. Between walking, the momentum on the body is enough to shock.

"Quick, open the gates." Pei Renji looked at the original army, and there was a hint of joy in the depths of his eyes. There is also a trace of loss, although his martial arts are not out of Pei Yuanqing, but his command ability is still above him, but the candidate to be the pioneer is not himself, but Pei Yuanqing. However, he didn't dare to take care of big things, so he quickly ordered someone to open the city gate and let Pei Yuanqing enter the customs.

"Father. But the food and grass were ready, and the child had to continue on his journey. Pei Yuanqing said with some worry. Tens of thousands of troops suddenly set out. This puts a lot of logistical pressure on Tongguan.

"Big brother, the army is so fast?" Pei Xingjian asked with some curiosity.

"The army of 60,000 is out day and night, but it must be rushed to Hongnong within three days." Pei Yuanqing sighed and said: "The general's soldiers and horses will arrive later, so my father should prepare early!" The soldiers marched all night, and they were already tired. ”

"Okay." Pei Renji's face was stunned, and the army moved. Even Li Jing has already been dispatched, which shows that Li Xin attaches great importance to this war, but I don't know what name Li Xin will use to attack Wang Shichong? Will Wang Shichong have a handle in Li Xin's hands?

And at this moment, in Zhao County, in Zhao County's Li family, Li Ren'an's face was gloomy. His brows were furrowed, and in front of him, Li Shousu, Li Hao, the second person in the Li family, and many clan elders gathered together, this time not only for the matter of returning to Guanzhong, but more importantly, the meaning of Li Xin.

"The prime minister doesn't need too much Zhaojun Li, if he gets Zhaojun Li, he can certainly get the support of some families, but he has paid a lot, how many princes and how many princes do we have to give in the Li family?" Li Shousu sighed in a low voice. Many clan elders nodded one after another, their eyes flickered, such a prince and the position of the prince of the country, everyone didn't think about it before, although the Li family of Zhao County is a county wang, at most it is a county duke, at most it is also a national duke, but now there is hope to win the crown of the prince, it is not a simple matter, no wonder the Zhao Bureau Li family is so nervous about this matter.

"In the past, it was the prime minister who looked for us, but now we are the prime minister." Li Ren'an nodded and said, "Don't think about this matter for the time being, the Turks have placed a large amount of grain and grass, gold, silver and jewelry here, as well as the women of my Han family. ”

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn, everyone's faces were full of anger, even Li Shousu was slightly dissatisfied, Li Shimin led the army to conquer Hebei, although he captured Hebei, but the means used were not very glorious, he actually led the Turks to act, the Turks burned and looted in the Central Plains, and the Central Plains people did not know how many dead and wounded. At present, these things are gathered in Zhao County, which is only a few miles away from the Li family's mansion, and the Turks have set up a large camp outside the Pingjian Field to place these belongings, although the people of Zhao County are very angry, but they are helpless.

"What did my father find?" Li Hao couldn't help but speak. When I came from Guanzhong, I felt that the atmosphere at home was very weird, and even during the Chinese New Year, I didn't feel right.

"Do you know the Red Turbans?" Li Ren'an did not answer his son's words, but asked another question.

"The army led by Dou Hongxian." Li Hao naturally understood the origin of this Red Turban Army, nodded and said: "The child came from Hebei and found that the Red Turban Army had a great impact, many landlords and heroes were wiped out by them, and all the fields were distributed to those poor people, and many ordinary people supported them. Why, will they fight Zhao Jun's idea? ”

"At the beginning, those landlords and heroes in Hebei supported Li Shimin and turned their backs on Dou Jiande, so that Dou Jiande was quickly defeated by Li Shimin, this time in order to retaliate for Li Shimin to seduce the Turks to the south, and dealt a ruthless hand to those landlords and heroes." Li Shousu said disdainfully: "However, they didn't dare to come to our Li family's trouble, and they even sent someone to contact them." Li Shousu said, and his face was even worse in the end.

"What's wrong?" Li Hao asked a little nervously.

"There is an army of 5,000 people in the mountains fifty miles away from Pingjiao, which is led by Xu Shiji himself." Li Ren'an snorted coldly.

"Five thousand? Xu Shiji? Li Hao's face changed when he heard this, because of the existence of the Li clan of Zhao County, there were not many soldiers and horses stationed here in any imperial court, Li Zhao actually sent Xu Shiji to lead five thousand elite soldiers and horses to level the thorns, and he was hiding in the mountains, it is really hard to say what secrets there are.

"Yes, he's targeting the capture of the Pyongthorn Turks, and that's going to be a huge number." Li Ren'an's face was gloomy, when he received the news, his face changed in fright, once Xu Shiji made a move on Pingthorn City, he would also be ruthless to the entire Pingthorn City in order to hide his whereabouts, even if Xu Shiji didn't do it, the Turks who lost their property would definitely wash the entire Pingthorn with blood, leaving no people and animals.

"No, it won't! Li Shimin's courage is so big? Li Hao couldn't help but ask.

"What's impossible, the gold and silver treasures next to Pingjian City are so huge, after Hebei has been ravaged by the Turks, it can be said that there have been heavy losses, if Li Zhao wants to restore the livelihood of Hebei, he must have a lot of money, where does this money come from? Haven't you snatched it from these Turks? Li Ren'an said with a gloomy face and a cold snort.

"Is he going to destroy our Flat Thorn City?" Li Hao's face was pale, he had heard that Li Shimin was also a generation of junjie, but he never thought that the other party actually had this kind of thought, wanting to kill all the people in Pingthorn City, and couldn't help but say: "Father, what should we do now?" Could it be that Pingjiao City was destroyed by the Turks or Li Zhao? ”

"We have to get out of here, I don't know about others, but our Li family must leave Pingjiao." Li Shousu said in a low voice: "Although the Li family is strong, it is definitely not Xu Shiji's opponent, we are now Zhaojun Li, and the prime minister is also Zhaojun Li, I even doubt that this is not a trap, after all, we have submitted to the prime minister, and we are also helpful to the prime minister's great cause." Destroying us is a blow to the prime minister, not to mention the savings of our Li family for hundreds of years. In the end, it will be cheaper Li Zhao. ”

"It's disgusting. Is there nothing we can do about it? Li Hao said viciously. The Li family can escape, the Li family's savings for so many years, at least they can safely withdraw from Pingjiao, but what about the rest of Zhao County? Those ordinary people will be condemned because of these treasures of gold and silver.

"Yes, yes." Li Ren'an said in a low voice: "Let the Red Turban Army come, Dou Hongxian himself is dissatisfied with Li Zhao, and he can't wait to kill Li Zhao's soldiers and horses cleanly." If we unite with them, we may not be able to solve this matter. ”

"Contact Dou Hongxian?" Li Hao hesitated, the Li family is one of the five surnames and seven wangs, although Dou Hongxian is Dou Jiande's daughter, but now he is a bandit, the Li family contacts the bandits, and the reputation of thousands of years will be abandoned, and it will definitely be laughed at by others.

"I don't even have my life, and I still think about something else? Aren't we the Red Turbans your allies? A cold voice suddenly came, but I saw a woman in red walking in with a sword in her hand.

"Dou Red Line." Although Li Hao didn't know Dou Hongxian, as soon as he saw the other party dressed in white, he knew the origin of the other party, it was Dou Jiande's daughter Dou Hongxian, but he didn't expect that at this time, he actually appeared in the Li family's mansion, and the Li family didn't even react at all.

"Yes, what the young patriarch said is right, my Red Turban Army, nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, and now there are 30,000 elites near Pingjian, just to give Li Zhao a fatal blow, I don't know if the Li clan of Zhao County has this courage. Eliminate Xu Shiji with us. Dou Hongxian glanced at everyone and said. (To be continued......)
