Chapter 63: Shooting Yourself in the Foot
"General Yuwen, why are you here today?" Li Xin glanced at Yuwen Chengdu.
"Sent troops to the general." Yuwen Chengdu took out the holy decree from his arms, held it with both hands, and said: "Congratulations to General Li, from now on he will be the Yingyang Lang General of the imperial court." In charge of the elite 1,200 cavalry of Xiaoguo, the deputy generals, captains, etc. are all recommended by the generals themselves. β
"Eagle Boyg?" Li Xin's face moved, he is now the commander of Zhichong, in charge of 2,000 people, but now he is an eagle general, in charge of 1,200 cavalry, is this a high promotion?
"General Ying Yanglang is in charge of the elite of Xiaoguo, and although there are 2,000 people in Zhichong, he is a government soldier." Yuwen Chengdu explained with a smile: "And what you brought this time are all cavalry." Three thousand six hundred. β
"This is the general's gold medal." Li Xin's eyes flickered, and he returned the gold medal of Yuwen Chengdu to Li Xin.
"Sure enough, it's a believer. This is a talisman, and the general will be able to master 1,200 elite cavalry from now on. Yuwen Chengdu took out a talisman and said, "Among the two thousand four hundred cavalry under him, the old and weak account for half. β
Li Xin's face was gloomy, and he secretly scolded the other party for being cunning, he knew that if he hadn't returned the gold medal to Yuwen Chengdu, he was afraid that what he would get would be 1,200 old and weak cavalry.
"The general led the army here, I'm afraid it's not just about handing over the military power to General Li!" Du Ruhui suddenly said softly on the side.
Li Xinzhong moved, looking at Yuwen Chengdu, Du Ruhui was right, if he wanted to blackmail himself and redeem the gold medal, at most he would come with two thousand four hundred elite cavalry, not three thousand six.
"Suppress the rebellion in Juxian County." Yuwen Chengdu said gloomily: "Juxian is located in the hinterland of Guanzhong, and His Majesty is about to go east, how can there be bandits in Guanzhong?" Hehe, General Li Lang, you brought thousands of gold this time, as well as cloth, brocade and silk, of course, as well as wine-making and glazed recipes, all of which are worth 10,000 gold, how can those bandits not take it to heart? β
"Someone deliberately leaked my news?" Li Xin immediately understood the problem here, his face was gloomy, and he looked at Yuwen Chengdu, the Yuwen family was really well-informed, and he noticed some of the situations in Juxian so quickly.
"You're smart." Yuwen Chengdu raised the gold medal in his hand very proudly, and said: "Don't believe those people from the Li family, tsk, I heard that you have paid a lot for Li Sanniang, how about it, in the end, it was not for the Li family to sell it." Saved a Li Yuan, but in the end he only got a manor, if you follow our Yuwen family, don't say it's a manor, even a big general I'm afraid you can get it, and there will be a mere general. β
"The general said too much." Li Xin's face was gloomy, and he suddenly remembered the appearance of Chai Shao and Ma Sanbao in his mind, if it wasn't good, it was the two of them who made the ghost, and I don't know if the Li family was involved.
"Alright. Li Xin, you are also a smart person, how to choose in the future is your business, but tonight, you have to listen to me. Destroy the wretch. Hmph, I actually made trouble in Guanzhong, and I don't want to think about what kind of place this is. Yuwen Chengdu snorted coldly and said.
"Where are your horses?" Li Xin's face was calm, and he said: "If nothing else, they will attack soon, you won't be late!" Li Xin looked at Yuwen Chengdu suspiciously.
"Don't worry, although General Ben hates you, he will never kill you by someone else's hand. As long as you insist on tea time, General Ben's army will be killed, and General Ben believes that you can still insist on tea time! Yuwen Chengdu stood up, strode out, and said, "Li Xin, you are not a person who has lived under the people for a long time, otherwise, you would not have let General Ben leave at the beginning." Li Yuan is not as simple as it seems. β
"Keming, do you think I should trust him?" Li Xin looked at Yuwen Chengdu's back and said.
"General, no one should believe it." Du Ruhan didn't think about it and said: "You must know that Juxian County is the hinterland of Guanzhong, close to the mountains, and this place is the easiest place to breed bandits, but if you want to exterminate it, it is not impossible, why is it still so rampant for so many years?" This place is not far from the imperial capital, tsk, don't get it, these thieves have a lot to do with the major families in Guanzhong. β
"Duan Qi, let the brothers get ready, close the door, tea time, I believe you can still hold on." Li Xin said with a cold snort. Looking at Si Zhuyuan in the distance, his face was gloomy. He was curious to know the truth behind it.
"Big brother, big brother Li, why haven't you come back yet?" Looking at the wine and food in front of him, Li Shimin hesitated a little and said, "It won't be to forget us!" β
"Humph! There's nothing bad about this place, big brother, why don't we rush back to Guanzhong now! Li Yuanji looked at the wine and food in front of him, felt very tasteless, stood up, and prepared to leave.
"Yes, yes, it's built, why don't we go back to Daxing, how about I feast you in the Drunken White Building?" Chai Shao is also restless, what is this place, it is Si Zhuyuan, it is not a place for the bandits to attack, those bandits will not know what Chai Shaochai is the eldest son, they have not seen Li Xin, they only know that they attacked Si Zhuyuan and died under these people, then it is called grievance!
"Chai Gongzi, you think about going back to Daxing like this, it won't be that there is something to hide from us!" The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Li Yuanji and Chai Shao with a smile, and finally glanced around, but he didn't find Ma Sanbao, and couldn't help asking, "Where is Ma Sanbao now?" β
"This?" Chai Shao's face was pale, Li Xin had just gone to the Wei family's manor, and when Li Jiancheng was about to rest in Sizhuyuan at night, Chai Shao felt regretful and hurriedly ordered Ma Sanbao to inform He Panren and Qiu Shili and others.
"What's going on? Motoyoshi, you say. "Li Jiancheng, as the eldest son, is far older than Li Shimin and others, and when things come to this point, if you don't know what's going on here, it's not called Li Jiancheng.
"Big brother, this is none of my business, someone told me that some people in Ju County are ready to find trouble with Li Xin and attack Li Xin tonight. Now we have changed positions with Li Xin, this? Li Yuanji was flustered in his heart, and sold Chai Shao without hesitation.
"Smack! What a guts. Li Jiancheng couldn't help but smash the wine glass in front of him on the ground, his face was gloomy as water, he looked at Chai Shao with a cold snort, and said viciously: "Don't you know that your father is wooing Li Xin?" Don't you know that the front foot of the person took over the manor, and the back foot was killed, so no one suspects our Li family? It's really forgetting righteousness, don't forget it, Li Xin saved his father twice, this is how you repay your kindness? β
"We're also in Si Zhuyuan now, what if someone attacks us?" Li Shimin snorted coldly and said, "We still have female dependents here. There is not only Li Zhiwan, the concubine of the Li family, but also his fiancΓ©e, the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin's face is gloomy, if something really happens, Li Shimin is afraid that it will be too late to regret it. He stared at Li Yuanji and Chai Shao viciously, these two guys were really stupid, calculating others, and in the end they even calculated themselves.
"Well, it should be fine! After Li Xin left, I felt a little bad, and I had already asked Ma Sanbao to inform them and ask them to cancel tonight's action. Chai Shao said in a bit of a panic.
The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly patted his brain, the arrow was on the string, and he had to send it, Chai Shao is really a useless person, at this time, he still believes in those thieves, even if they are thieves raised by his own family, they are willing to obey orders, Ma Sanbao wants to find these people, I'm afraid it is not an ordinary difficulty! He knew that there were many thieves in Juxian County, and there were many families behind them, and these people were really stupid to let the Li family carry the black pot.
"Quick, go and inform Li Xin, let him leave Juxian County immediately and return to Daxing." Li Jiancheng said loudly.
"Let him move closer to us." Li Shimin said loudly, and seeing Li Jiancheng's hesitant look, he explained in a low voice: "Big brother, Li Xin's force is enough to protect us. β
