"Keming, I feel that the old fox can't get it and already knows that someone in Jincheng wants to ambush us."

Inside the carriage, Li Xin's face was gloomy and he said to Du Ruhui.

He was suspicious that Li Yuan would leave Li Zhiwan in Honghua, Li Yuan would pay attention to his son-in-law, and he was generally a tool for marriage to concubines, and he didn't have much affection, which can be seen from Li Zhiwan's expression, but at this time, Li Zhiwan was left in Honghua, which can't help but make people suspicious.

"General, someone sent a letter to the general."

At this time, Duan Qi's voice came from outside the car, Li Xin opened the car window, but saw Duan Qi handing over a letter, and he also saw a young man being guarded by several soldiers.

"Let him go."

Li Xin looked at the soldier for a while, and finally waved his hand and said.

"Yes."

Duan Qi was stunned for a moment and nodded.

When he looked at it again, Li Xin had already lowered the curtain.

"I have heard for a long time that Jincheng is risky, there are many thieves, the terrain of Gangou Station is complicated, and it is inconvenient for most of the governors to walk on their carriages and horses."

The content of the letter was very simple, Li Xin glanced at it casually, read him through it, then threw the letter aside, and said: "The eldest grandson Wuji is a little interesting, he wants to sue me, but he doesn't dare to say it to his face, but he ordered someone to send a letter behind his back." ”

Although Li Xin said this, he was shocked in his heart, the Thunderbolt Hall of the eldest grandson Wuji was even stronger than imagined, in the northwest land, there was such an intelligence system, at least, the current Jinyi Wei had not found out where Xue Ju and those guys would ambush him, but the Thunderbolt Hall of the eldest grandson Wuji already knew.

Suffice it to say that there is a gap between the two.

"The general's Jinyi Guard has been established for a short time, and the Thunderbolt Hall of the auxiliary machine was established by Lord Changsun Sheng back then, and it has the support of the imperial court, and the general's Jinyi Guard will definitely surpass the Perak Hall in the future."

Du Ruhui saw Li Xin's thoughts and comforted.

"Well, we are targeting the big city first, followed by the northwest, and the northwest is where our foundation is."

Li Xin quickly calmed down.

He started late, and there is a big gap between him and the eldest grandson Wuji.

However, he believed that his Jinyiwei would definitely surpass Peraktang, because there was a powerful force behind Jinyiwei, not a person.

"General, Jincheng urgent."

In the distance, three cavalry drove straight into the center.

"Quick, bring it."

Li Xin was stunned when he heard this, sat up suddenly, and shouted loudly to Duan Qi outside.

Duan Qi didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly stepped forward and took the Jincheng emergency report and presented it to Li Xin.

"Xue Ju is really doing it in Gangouyi, Shen Qianqiu and they have already found them. Tsk, there are 40,000 bandits, including 20,000 Zong Luohu, and more than 10,000 other thieves. Qiang coalition army. There is also the Qiang coalition army. ”

Li Xin took the information and said to Du Ruhui: "There is actually a Qiang coalition army. ”

"Xue Ju has a lot of influence in Jincheng, Shen Qianqiu once said that this person is brave, and the Qiang people admire this person. Some people also call each other General Kamui in private. Not to mention the poverty of the Qiang people, these ethnic groups are either nomadic, or act as bandits, robbing passing merchants, there are also a lot, this time to participate in the ambush of the general's operation, part of it is Xue Ju's bewitchment and bribery, and part of it is led by the living environment they are facing, and the subordinates think that the general wants to subdue the Qiang people, not only because of the strong force, but more importantly, for the benefits of the Qiang people. ”

Du Ruhui said in a low voice.

"That's what I'm thinking about, too."

Li Xin nodded, but quickly said, "These guys believe more in force than in mercy. After a while, let them see what the real Shenwei General is, tsk, Keming, this Xue Ju seems to be very cunning, in this intelligence, not only does he not have any news, but he helps Xu Jin to measure the land, and it seems to support my measures in Jincheng! Even after I arrived in Jincheng, I didn't dare to attack him, and even tried to entrap him. This is a talent, alas, a careerist. ”

"How is the general going to move him?"

Du Ruhui asked curiously.

"Pull him first, pull him under my command, weaken his strength, if he doesn't resist, in the end, he will either obediently become my subordinate, if he resists, the later the time, the weaker his strength will be, and he is not my opponent, if he resists earlier, we will have a chance to get rid of this person as soon as possible."

Li Xin said with a smile.

Du Ruhui's eyes showed a cold light, Li Xin was boiling frogs in warm water, although Xue Ju was insidious and cunning, but there was one thing he couldn't compare to Li Xin, that is, Li Xin had mastered the general trend, and the entire Jincheng was his.

Xue Ju is just a school captain, there is no future in Li Xin's army, such a person can only fight with Li Xin now, and when Li Xin arrives in Lanzhou, Xue Ju will definitely die.

The army marched slowly, from Honghua to Lanzhou Jincheng, plus the army walking, it would take at least a month to arrive, fortunately, although the Great Sui at this time was in troubled times, but the order did not collapse to a certain point, Li Xin's army had the government to pay for grain and grass along the way, Rao is so, when advancing, it is also extremely difficult, not to mention that there are women and children in the convoy, the old and the weak.

And in the distant Zhuo County, Yang Guang once again gathered a large group of men and horses to conquer Goguryeo, this is his third expedition distance, Wenchen and military generals all gathered together, the momentum is huge, Yang Guang is also high-spirited, because the news from Goguryeo said that Goguryeo has already planned to surrender, even the original traitor Hu Sizheng may be escorted back to China, Yang Guang is already thinking about what kind of punishment to use to deal with Hu Sizheng.

However, the accompanying officials knew that things were not so simple, Goguryeo was not like the Great Sui, although Yang Guang's previous expeditions ended in failure, but Goguryeo itself also suffered heavy losses, so this time, in addition to the strong walls and clear fields, what was more important was to harass Yang Guang's grain route, which made the army miserable.

"Humph!"

Yang Guang, who was sitting behind the imperial case, suddenly discovered something, snorted coldly, and said to Song He: "When Goguryeo is pacified, I will go on a parade, let Li Yuan come to see the driver!" Let him accompany me. ”

"Yes."

Not only Song He's face was stunned, but the other civil and military officials in the big tent were also stunned, and they mentioned Li Yuan well.

And let Li Yuan accompany him, which is not a good thing!

"Li Yuan, this grandmother, after arriving in Honghua, actually met a lot of friends! The governance of Honghua is in good order, I appreciate this kind of person very much, let him see me! ”

There was no emotion in Yang Guang's voice, but when everyone in the big tent sounded, there was a turbulent wave in their hearts, and they immediately knew why Yang Guang wanted to see Li Yuan.

The reason is that Li Yuan is not honest.
