"Lord Guard?"

Seeing Bai Fu's appearance, Li Yuanba was a little dumbfounded, he frowned and said, "Bai Fu, what the hell are you doing?" What Guardian? ”

Bai Fu didn't get up, he still knelt on one knee in the snow, lowered his head and said: "Back to the guardian master, the slave has learned in self-defense that the master has separated some of the 'shadow guards' from the 'heavenly machine guards' and put them under the command of the guard master!" Nu Baifu has been assigned to the command of the Wei Lord! ”

"Shadow Guard, Heavenly Machine Guard?"

Li Yuanba shook his head violently, and then suddenly remembered what he said to his cheap brother at noon yesterday.

It seems that Li Shimin was not too relieved about Li Yuanba at the beginning, and even sent a second-class internal guard of the Tianji Guard to monitor him, and it was really ruthless from the Heavenly Family.

But this is also a matter of course, thinking about the attitude of those who are familiar with him towards Li Yuanba, it is not difficult to see what kind of bastard this thing used to be. Dan's personality, looking for someone to monitor him, is purely worried that he will cause trouble again.

"Get up!" Li Yuanba shook his head, threw away the nonsense in his mind, looked at Bai Fu and said, "Bai Fu, you came to tell the king, where is the headquarters of Tianjiwei and Yingwei?" ”

Bai Fu stood up, shook his head and said: "Back to the Wei Master, the slave only has a single-line contact point, specifically, Wei Li will come and personally take you to the Tianji Guard headquarters!" ”

"Hmmm! All right! ”

I didn't expect a second-class insider of the Heavenly Guards to know where their own headquarters were, and it seems that the secrecy work of the Heavenly Guards and the Shadow Guards is very good.

"Why did you come to this king?" Li Yuanba asked.

"Lord of the guard, the border pass Hexi guard post is eight hundred miles urgent, the Tuyuhun army is frequently mobilized, and the Khan Fuyun sent troops to Koubian on the 26th of the lunar month, and returned to the tribe after plundering! This is a spy report from the border guards! ”

Hearing Li Yuanba's words, Bai Fu's face turned pale. took out a cylinder sealed with fire paint, but the size of a thumb, from his arms, and handed it to Li Yuanba.

Li Yuanba stretched out his hand and took it, his right finger was slightly forced, the small bamboo tube was crushed, and a wax pill was poured out of it, the wax pill was only the size of a thumb nail, and the outside was painted black, looking like a pill.

"It's pretty tightly sealed!"

Li Yuanba muttered in his heart, and crushed the wax pill without saying a word. Took out a small note from it, the small note does not know what paper to use, extremely tough, spread out, the small characters inside are dense, and I am afraid that there must be hundreds of words:

"According to the 'Rat One' report, the Tuyuhun tribe, the main force of the internal eagle division, secretly went to the edge of the river in batches. And secretly purchased grain and grass in the surrounding Fanbang. The commander of the Eagle Division, Nuobang, recently led his guards to Tubo to discuss the purchase of war horses with Tubo......"

"Who else knows about this espionage?" After reading the contents of this small note, Li Yuanba stared at Bai Fu and asked.

Bai Fu shook his head. Said: "The seventh-rank internal guard of the Heavenly Guard is only responsible for the transmission of the spy report and the oral general information, as for the specific content of the spy report, no one knows except the Wei Master!" ”

"Good! This is the end of the matter, and the horse is prepared for this king. This king wants to enter the palace! Li Yuanba took off the bearskin blanket on his body, stretched his waist and said.

"No!"

Bai Fu replied respectfully and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the courtyard.

……

Today is the first day of the first lunar month. Although it was not yet dawn, the palace had already become noisy.

Because this day of the year is a day for the government and the people to celebrate together.

Today's son, Li Shimin, will bring the royal family to the Suzaku Gate in person, where he will accept the congratulations of the civil and military officials and the people of Zhou, and will also take this opportunity to divide some rewards, or promulgate several national policies that benefit the people.

Therefore, on the first day of January every year, Chang'an City will be the most lively, and all families, regardless of men, women and children, will not go far away, but gather on Zhuque Street to watch this grand occasion.

When Li Yuanba crossed his horse and rushed to the palace, Li Shimin had already finished dressing and was sitting quietly on the soft collapse of the Liangyi Palace, closing his eyes and recuperating.

I saw that he had changed into a silk robe, with a crown on his head, and his feet were bare, but he was dressed in a festive court.

"Brother Huang!"

Li Yuanba strode into the hall and shouted.

"Oh? It's Yuanba! Li Shimin opened his eyes, glanced at Li Yuanba with some surprise, and said, "Yuanba, why are you still dressed yesterday?" ”

Li Yuanba looked down at the outfit on his body, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Huang, after the courtier's brother returned to the house yesterday, he slept with his clothes, where is the time to change clothes!" ”

"You!" Li Shimin shook his head with a smile, and said to Liu Sanshui, who was standing beside him: "Sanshui, you go and order the Shangyi Bureau to prepare the Yuanri court clothes for King Wu, and let them make them quickly, I want it now!" ”

"No!"

Liu Sanshui answered, and he was about to retreat from the palace.

However, Li Yuanba stopped him and said to Li Shimin: "Brother Huang, this matter is not in a hurry!" Brother here's another important thing to tell you! ”

"Oh?" Li Shimin was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Yuanba didn't speak, just looked around the hall, at this moment, in addition to their two elder brothers, there were four eunuchs who were waiting with him, as well as six little palace maids.

Liu Sanshui waved his hand to the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids with great discernment, and said, "A few of you, come out with me!" ”

A few little eunuchs and little palace maids didn't dare to slack off, and directly followed Liu Sanshui out of the Liangyi Palace.

After a while, the hall became completely empty, leaving only the two brothers Li Shimin, sitting opposite each other on the collapse.

Li Yuanba directly took out the spy report from the 'Tianjiwei' eight hundred miles from his arms and handed it to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin felt very strange, he opened the note with a puzzled face, and read it carefully and word by word.

Half an hour later, Li Shimin was like an angry king of the forest, and fiercely slapped the small note in his hand on the table.

"Smack!"

That huge force directly smashed the table apart.

"It's too much of a deception! It's so deceitful! Li Shimin stood up and rushed angrily, "First Xue Yantuo." Now there is another Tuyuhun popping up, what about the future, will it be Tubo in the future, will it be a big food? ”

"Da Da ......"

Walking back and forth in the main hall a few times, Li Shimin kept saying: "No, you can't let them be so arrogant!" If you don't hurt them, they still think that I am a bully! I'm going to fight, I'm going to fight hard! ”

Li Yuanba didn't speak, he just watched Li Shimin keep venting there, and kept saying cruel words.

A full quarter of an hour passed. Maybe he was tired of scolding, or he understood that whining was useless, Li Shimin sat back in his chair and said, "Yuanba, what do you think of Tuyuhun's actions?" ”

"Actively prepare for the war and wait and see what happens!" Li Yuanba did not hesitate at all and said his thoughts.

"What's the explanation?" Li Shimin frowned.

"Brother Huang, Tuyuhun has been deploying a large army since the 26th of last month to prepare food and salary. The purpose of preparing the war horse is not only to come to my Datang Frontier to plunder, but it is very likely to be for a long-term battle! ”

Li Yuanba analyzed: "Protracted warfare requires huge reserves of grain and grass. Tuyuhun rashly launched an attack on our Tang Frontier. Not to mention whether the city can be captured, the supplies of tens of thousands of troops alone cannot be supplied! Because of this, the younger brother thought that even if Tuyuhun wanted to declare war on my Datang, it would take at least two to three months of preparation time! ”

Heard Li Yuanba's words. Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "Well, as the so-called two armies are fighting, grain and grass go first!" At present, Tuyuhun's Eagle Division Guard has slowly moved closer to my Tang border. But they don't have much food or grass! If you want to survive by plundering the food of the people in my Tang Frontier, it is simply not enough to support the consumption of tens of thousands of troops! ”

"So they need grain and grass, and they need a lot of grain and grass! And now it's winter, and there aren't many grains and herbs in the various states, so it's good to be able to barely support the consumption within the clan, so how can it be sold to foreign countries again? Therefore, if Tuyuhun wants to gather the grain and grass to supply tens of thousands of troops in a short period of time, it is simply impossible! ”

Speaking of this, Li Yuanba sneered: "And this is our chance!" ”

"Opportunity?" Li Shimin said.

"Yes!" Li Yuanba bowed slightly, and said: "In these two months, our 'Shenwuwei' has basically taken shape, and the research and development of firearms on the side of the 'Shenji Mansion' will definitely give us a big surprise!" What we have to do now is to slowly transport the grain, grass and various supplies to the west of the river in batches without alarming the five surnames and Qiwang and the Fanbang barbarians! ”

"The army of 10,000 'Shenwuwei' alone...... Yuanba, are you sure? ”

Although he had seen Shenwuwei's domineering domineering outpouring crush Zuo Wuwei's army, the disparity in the number of people still made Li Shimin a little frightened.

"Haha, Brother Huang! If the number of Tuyuhun Eagle Divisional Guards on the spy report is accurate, then there are only 40,000 people, and there are 'Shenwu Guards' who come out, and they will be killed like a river of blood, and there will be no chickens and dogs! ”

Li Yuanba is very confident, and this confidence is not only in his trust in the 'Shenwuwei' army, but also in his confidence in the weapons of mass destruction in the 'Shenji Mansion'.

Think about it, if you lay thousands, if even tens of thousands, of mines were planted on the path of the Tuyuhun army, and at the same time slings were used on the city walls. The words of the pill cannon...... Tsk, thinking about the scene of the blood droplets flying, it makes people shudder!

"This ......" Li Shimin still hesitated.

"Brother Huang, you will believe me!"

Li Yuanba continued to fan the flames on the side: "After this battle, I believe that I can not only defeat the arrogance of those Fanbang barbarians, but also deter the five surnames and seven hopes!" As for Xue Yantuo's affinity, hum! If you dare to make such a request again, you will directly march out and completely destroy Xue Yantuo! (A pie-in-the-sky event, cool phones are waiting for you!)
