State affairs, family affairs, in this era when many people want to turn their families into countries, which is more important is indeed not something that can be clearly explained in one or two sentences. Not only is Li Shimin very hesitant about this, but Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou, who is thousands of miles away, is also facing an extremely difficult choice.

Letting the Turks go south and fighting to the death with Li Zhongjian, the enemy who blocked his path, was originally a key step in the planned struggle for the world. But as the situation on the grassland became more and more distinct, Luo Yi became more and more hesitant whether the decision he made in anger was a little rash?

The Tiger Horse is currently stationed in Liucheng, and if needed, Luo Yi can transfer it to the Zhuojun battlefield again within ten days. But if you do that, you will have to be cheap for nothing, Li Zhongjian and Mrs. Li, the dirty uncle and nephew. The former, in particular, is simply an unreasonable lunatic. Li Laoyu's behavior of sending troops to deal with Shibi Khan is understandable, after all, Zhuojun and Hedong are both on the only way for the Turks to go south, and if they lose Hedong, Li Laoyu will lose their foundation. And what about Li Zhongjian, what is he trying to do? Most of Zhuo County is wasteland, what is the use of him guarding this wilderness? If he wants to compete for the world, it's okay, but no matter how you look at it, this person doesn't look like he's ready to fight for the world. If you don't want to win the championship, but you want to block the opportunity of others to achieve the cause of the king, this is really hateful! This is simply harming others and not benefiting oneself, and it is simply a matter of being unable to get along with General Luo Yi. If the tiger rode thousands of miles to save him, he would not be able to get along with himself, and he would stab himself! No matter how awkward he feels in his heart, Luo Yi can't be stupid!

But then again, if you sit back and watch Li Zhongjian being eaten alive by the Turkic wolf, Luo Yi feels very, very unwilling. Since his debut, he has hardly met an opponent in his life. But in the twilight of his life, he was hit by a newborn calf. Although the Boling Army directly defeated Luo Cheng instead of him Luo Yi last year, the tactic of avoiding the important and taking the light made Luo Yi even more depressed than directly giving the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry a blow to the head. That battle not only hit Luo Cheng and a few young people under his command, that battle was equivalent to a direct blow to Youzhou's ambition to compete for the world. If he can't even clean up the newly rising Li Zhongjian, what will Tiger Warrior do to clean up Li Yuan, Li Mi and Du Fuwei, who are much stronger than Li Zhong?

When the world is as close as a ripe peach, all the soldiers are eager for Luo Yi to take him to pick it quickly. But when everyone found that there was a lone wolf lying under the peach tree, between eating peaches and being bitten, many people had to make a trade-off. The result of the trade-off is that if the lone wolf doesn't die, it's better for everyone to easily stop beating Peaches. Therefore, for the sake of his family's future future, Luo Yi must turn a blind eye to the war that is about to happen at his doorstep!

It's painful to make such a choice. Especially when facing some high-ranking generals in the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry, the suspicious, hesitant, and even slightly disappointed gazes in everyone's eyes can sometimes force Luo Yi to be like a thorn in the back. Everyone is a veteran who has followed him for more than ten years, and for most of the past ten years, the Tiger Ben Iron Horse has existed as a weapon of the Great Sui. Ready to defend the homeland with life and blood is an oath that runs through almost every general's youth. And now, they want to forget all the things they insisted on in their youth, and they want to completely deny the goals and pursuits of their youth! Just ask, this sharp turn that is like a north-south fold, who can easily turn the horse's head over?

With his personal prestige for many years and a beautiful vision for the future, Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou, temporarily suppressed the opposition around him. But he knew that the confusion and disappointment were always plaguing his generals, especially some of them who usually performed well. A large part of the reason why they perform well is their dedication to the ideas in their hearts. And the more persistent the idea in the heart, the more difficult it is to make a change.

"It would be great if Li Zhongjian knew a little bit about being flexible!" Pretending to be domineering in front of the generals during the day, and hiding in his study at night, Luo Yi couldn't help but make some unrealistic fantasies. If Li Xu didn't take the initiative to block the Great Wall, his current approach would be much easier for his subordinates to understand, at least it wouldn't make people feel that he was betraying his ideals for many years. There are many ways to defend the country, and it doesn't have to be as reckless as Li Zhongjian. It was also an option to preserve power to end the chaos within the Central Plains, and then expel the Turkic people who had gone south. Didn't the ancients say that those who know how to achieve great things are not informal? It is impossible for the Turks to eat the entire Central Plains in one bite, compared with the major event of winning the championship, what can the temporary loss of a few pieces of land in the border counties be counted?

Luo Yi felt that Li Xu's current behavior was very stupid. But he understands the stupidity. If he is thirty years younger, maybe he will make the same choice as the other party. At that time, he didn't have much ambition and didn't have many fetters. Some are just young, hot-blooded, and something called a dream. Now, he has to take more responsibility for every decision he makes.

is not like Li Xu, who has been floating like duckweed all his life, and has not taken root even in the six counties of Hebei. Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou, is different, he has put his roots in Youzhou, and for more than ten years, he and his generals and ministers have established their own families here. When he makes decisions, he can't be willful like Li Xu, he has to think about his own family, for the families of all his supporters, for his own son and other people's sons. The more you have, the more responsibility you have on your shoulders. And the heavier the responsibility, the more you cherish what you get after paying, and the more difficult it is to give up.

Li Xu chose to go north to the Great Wall to defend the fence, and even if he won, the Boling army would be completely reduced to someone else's vassal. This move is tantamount to giving up the possibility of himself and his followers fighting for the world in the future, and the sacrifice is not small. And if Luo Yi rushes to help him at this time, it is equivalent to giving up the possibility of the Youzhou Army competing for the world. Countless brave soldiers and countless resources have been lost, and all they have gained is a useless name. As for the false name, Luo Yi had already accumulated enough when he was young, and he didn't need to add another stroke to his life.

What he needs is tangible benefits, and he does not hesitate to bear some dirt for it. Of course, if Li Zhongjian, Li Laofei and the Turkic Wolf Cavalry fight to defeat all three times, it is best for the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry to choose to appear at that time, and they can reap the greatest benefits.

In order to maximize the benefits, Luo Yi had to make better preparations. After the first month, he moved the tiger and iron cavalry again, some of them went to Liaodong County, and the herdsmen of the two departments of Khitan and Shen Ya practiced the kung fu of wielding the horse, and a small part, about 1,000 horsemen led by the infantry of the strong general, sneaked back to Jixian County, always ready to guard against the occurrence of mutations. In order to make Shibi Khan's spies not suspect Youzhou's intentions, he also deliberately asked his henchman Liu Yifang to lead more than 3,000 foot soldiers to be stationed at Juyong Pass, putting on a posture of being ready to copy the back road of the Boling army. The effect of this move was very good, not only the envoy sent by Shibi Khan was very satisfied, but the Boling army was also frightened and hurriedly sent General Lü Qin to come up, and he died in Yanqing Fort and the big and small mountains outside Juyong Pass.

In return for his kindness, the Turkic Heavenly Khan must have sent Youzhou a wolf-headed Daxu and the title of Anle Khan, and promised that after going south, the wolf rider would not commit any offence against the counties of Youzhou. If the Central Plains is successfully conquered, it will cede the benefits of Hejian, Bohai and other counties as pastures for Anle Khan. At the same time as receiving the reward from Shibi, Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou, also received a letter from Li Mi, the "Duke of Wei". In the letter, Li Mi, who had already received the unanimous verbal support of Dou Jiande, Li Yuan, Du Fuwei and others, urged Luo Yi not to fall for Li Zhongjian and not to make useless struggles for the already crumbling Great Sui. Of course, this request was not gratuitous, and in return, Li Mi was promoted to the rank of a young general named Luo Cheng of his subordinates three times in a month. Let him directly become the deputy commander of the Ma Army, the Marquis of Beihai County, and together with Shan Xiongxin, he is in charge of the "most powerful" cavalry of the Wagang Army.

Luo Yi didn't care about Li Mi's overtures, he owed the slightest respect to this babbling "alliance leader". But he couldn't help but put the other party's letter next to the bookcase, and read it again. The Luo Cheng mentioned in the letter is his son who has been separated for more than half a year. In the past six months, Luo Yi's heart has almost been half empty. Sometimes I heard that my son was a county minister under Dou Jiande, and sometimes I heard that my son was annoyed by Dou Jiande and left with a crown. Every time similar news came to Youzhou, he would worry for many days, and at the same time, his hatred for Li Xu increased a little. And now, he knew that his son had gone to Li Mi, and was ready to borrow Li Mi's soldiers and horses to go north and fight his former enemies in the north and south. And, through the mouth of the messenger, Luo Yi knew that his son had matured a lot, and there was a woman with an extremely mysterious background, but who was unusually gentle.

"This kid, married to a daughter-in-law, doesn't squeak with me as a father!" After reading Li Mi's letter again, Luo Yi scolded with a smile. At this moment, he not only has a vision for the future in his heart, but also a father's unconcealable pride and satisfaction that his son is about to grow up. The reason why he Luo Yi is fighting for this world is not all for the children? Thinking of his son Luo Cheng sitting in the north and facing south in the future, scolding Fang Xuan, he felt that the current choice was correct, and all the efforts were worth it.

No matter what others advised, he was not prepared to change his mind. One day, these people will understand his choice today and share in the benefits they deserve. Including the infantry general who returned from afar, Luo Yi didn't expect that as an out-and-out descendant of Xianbei, this person would be so clear about the Central Plains and the outside of the Saiwai. Since returning to Jixian County, he has repeatedly raised objections, and has been reprimanded in public by himself again and again, but he has repeatedly refused.

Thinking of Aijiang's stubborn appearance, Luo Yi had to make some supplementary measures. When the infantry general returned to Jixian County, the 1,000 tigers he led were all his descendants. If he really can't persuade this person, Luo Yi will have to deprive him of the right to mobilize troops and horses, lest this stubborn guy can't think of doing anything that will lead to the destruction of his family one day.

"Someone is coming, pass on the commander's order!" Luo Yi grabbed an arrow and shouted hesitantly. He heard a noisy sound of footsteps outside the door, and not only his confidants, but also several generals and staff members ran in.

An ominous premonition immediately surged into the heart of the chief manager of Youzhou, and the shock on his face surged out, and he asked sharply. "Lone just called the soldiers to come in, it's so late, what are you all running here for?"

Yingyanglang general Lu Ju, Huaihua Zhonglang general Fan Hengda, marching commander Shi Qinyong, Huyalang general Cao Yuanrang, and almost all the senior generals of the Youzhou Army who stayed in Jixian County ran into the study one after another. The surging heads made Luo Yi's heart settle down a little, and he knew that if there was a mutiny, the perpetrators would definitely not keep their henchmen so neat.

"What's the matter, why don't you speak? Qin Changshi, what is it that makes you so flustered? What did you say in peacetime, have you forgotten? The state has national laws, and the family has family rules. What are you doing here? After calming down, Luo Yi quickly regained the majesty of General Huben, his eyes swept over the faces of his generals one by one, and at the same time questioned loudly.

He saw the endless shock and sorrow that hung on everyone's face, whether it was the young generation or the aging generation, almost all of them sincerely. A moment later, he heard an answer in the mouth of his confidant Changshi, who could not have imagined no matter what.

"Hey, tell the general. Step, step captain, step captain killed himself! Elder Shi Qinyong sobbed and reported, not paying attention to what he was talking about was everyone's old official position many years ago.
