Wu Zong covered his face with his hands, rubbed it a few times, and let out a long breath. Cheer up and ask, "Ladies and gentlemen, what are your thoughts and suggestions after reading it?" ”

Du Yi saw that the emperor was tired and still had to beat his spirits, and reprimanded himself in his heart, saying that he should not have the dark psychology of a villain, and be like a gentleman.

As soon as the army was launched, the list of demands for money arrived. Several feudal towns sent troops at the same time, all of them came to ask for money, and the court took care of whom. The faces of the ministers also fell.

Li Xiangqi said, "Your Majesty, in the past, as long as the troops from various feudal towns were sent out of the border, all the expenses were borne by the imperial court. Therefore, some feudal towns conquer a county and a fence village, and it is also like the imperial court inviting merit and seeking property. Some even secretly colluded with traitors to temporarily borrow one county and one town. So we don't want them to capture the county seat, the fence. Ordered them to take the states. ”

Chengde Jiedu made Wang Yuankui capture Xingzhou, and Hedong Jiedu made Liu Wei and Jin Jiang Xingying troops make Li Yanzuo capture Luzhou. Wei Bojiedu made He Hongjing capture Zhangzhou. Heyang Jiedu made Wang Maoyuan capture Zezhou.

"Your Majesty, you can instruct Li Yanzuo to requisition materials from the prefectures and counties along the way. The states and counties requisitioned the materials, and the imperial court will compensate them later. ”

"Okay, Li Xiang, draft the edict."

"Obey."

"Aiqing, the edict is from your hand, I can rest assured. You can hit the nail on the head, you have to beat Li Yanzuo moderately, and don't talk to me about conditions. ”

Wu Zong stroked his forehead with his hand and pressed his temples. These days, sleeping and talking in my dreams are all things to seek Zhaoyi.

"Stand down." Lee Sang-sang and the ministers wanted to step down.

Wu Zong: "Prime Minister." ”

"Your Majesty, what do you command?" Li Xiang bowed and stopped.

"The prime minister can rest in the side hall next to my dormitory at night, don't get up early and run back and forth in the dark. In the recent period, the prime minister has worked hard. ”

Wu Zong felt sorry for his humerus minister, and the holy grace was mighty, so he left him to rest in the palace.

Li Xiang knelt down to thank the Holy Grace, "The old minister thanks Your Majesty for the grace of the Holy Family." The old minister's mansion is not far from the imperial city. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been engaged in state affairs and has not dared to relax in the slightest, and the old ministers cannot bear to disturb His Majesty. The old minister has the trust of His Majesty, and he is afraid to repay His Majesty for not doing his best, and he does not feel hard to go back and forth between the imperial city and the mansion every day. ”

In the past, when Li Xun and Zheng Zhu were treated favorably by Wenzong, they relied on Wenzong's favor and trust, and often stayed in the palace.

Li Xiang thinks that Li Xun and Zheng Zhu are villains at both ends of the snake and rat, so they are also quite disdainful of their behavior in staying in the palace. thinks that it is just the complacent ambition of the villain. Therefore, Wu Zong was gracious, and Li Xiang politely declined.

Li Yanzuo led the army all the way slowly. Out of Xuzhou, just arrived at the first post station, the general ordered to camp on the spot to rest.

The soldiers set up tents, the men were busy burying pots and cooking, and the horsemen were filling and feeding the horses.

Shi Xiong dined with other generals and could eat large pieces of meat. Liu Ye, the little colonel at the head and tail of the soldiers, another grade of food standards, can see the meat star, and get a few pieces of meat. Shizu is rice soup with flatbread and pickle strips.

Liu Ye naturally wanted to mingle with the leaders and tails of the soldiers, and he and Chang Sheng carried bowls to the school officials' pile.

"You were promoted by surprise?"

Someone gave up their position, and Liu Ye and Chang Sheng squeezed in. The school officials are familiar with each other, and they look at him on both sides.

"In the lower willow leaves, Chang Sheng, follow General Shi over."

Then they ceased to speak, and began to eat and drink. For a group of men, eating is the same as fighting, emphasizing efficiency.

General Li ordered the camp to be set up, and it was a few days to be safe. In the past few days, the soldiers have not been idle, training in teams and teams. However, there is a big gap between the intensity of training and when I was in Toyosu Castle.

Shi Xiong explained to Liu Ye and the others at the beginning, and he was more leisurely during training. Liu Ye and the others didn't understand what Shi Xiong meant, but they followed his will and kept clumsy.

After breakfast on the fourth day, the weather was good, clear and sunny. The soldiers were again training in the open field.

Li Yanzuo said, "Deputy Envoy Shi, you are known for your bravery. There are no weak soldiers under strong generals, and you must not be far behind. Do you dare to give it a try? Yes? ”

He looked around at the crowd with a teasing look. In the past few days, Liu Ye and others have performed unsatisfactory on the training ground.

The soldiers followed, "Do you dare to compare?" If you don't want to compete, you can admit defeat directly. ”

Shi Xiong smiled and said, "It's good to compete in martial arts, you can not only learn martial arts, but also meet friends with martial arts." It doesn't matter if you win or lose, don't hurt each other's harmony. ”

He nodded to Willow Leaf, and Willow Leaf stepped forward. Shi Xiong's words were tactful, and in the ears of Li Yanzuo and other soldiers, it seemed like giving in. I can't help but be a little disdainful.

Liu Ye clenched his fists and asked, "Dare to ask General Li, how to compete?" The subordinates will never disappoint the general's expectations, and the general will wait and see. ”

Liu Ye's words seem to be full of confidence. He casually walked straight to the center of the venue, and said in a casual tone, "Which one is out of the queue, someone Liu will accompany him to the end." ”

The soldiers of Wuning were arrogant in the past, and since they were contemptuous of Liu Ye and others, they saw Liu Ye openly provoking them. couldn't hold back the anger, and several people came out at the same time.

Among them, there is a celebrity in the Wuning Army, known as a general who is known as 'ghost and sorrow'. His men dissuaded him, "General, kill chickens with knives." Pack up this little role, we have enough. ”

The general nodded, "General Ben made a move, as if I was bullying him." Anyway, the small role can't be applied to me. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Shi Xiong, meaning that you deserve to compete with me. Shi Xiong smiled noncommittally.

Li Yanzuo said, "Captain Liu hangs a sword on his waist, Captain Zhang, you can compete with him in swordsmanship." ”

Li Yanzuo untied the sword Chunjun Sword at his waist, "The sword in your hand, in front of him, is a mouthful of broken copper and iron." ”

The Pure Jun Sword is as famous as the Ancient Divine Sword. Zhang Xiaowei took it with trembling hands, for a general, a military general who learns swordsmanship, what a lucky thing it is to have a good sword in this life.

Captain Zhang, named by General Li, is Captain Zhiguo, who is higher in rank than Liu Ye. The two greeted each other and promised each other.

The sword is unsheathed, the sword body and the sunlight are integrated, and the blade of the sword is like a cliff standing on the wall, lofty and majestic. The two of them unanimously praised, "Good sword." ”

Liu Ye raised his sword and slashed at his chest, and the other party was taller and stronger than him. The other party didn't dodge, and the sword light went towards Liu Ye's chest.

The willow leaf plucked the onion on the dry ground and jumped up in the air, the toes of the toes were on the opponent's helmet, the opponent's body moved sideways, and the sword light swept towards the willow leaf.

Li Yanzuo couldn't take his eyes off it. In the Tang Dynasty army, he was one of the best swordsmen. At least so far, no one has challenged him for the first place in swordsmanship.

The willow leaf rotated in the air, the wind swept his legs, and his body kicked the numb tendon of the opponent's sword-holding hand at a strange angle, and the opponent almost lost his hand and couldn't hold the sword. Taking advantage of the other party's distraction, the tip of the willow leaf sword was against the opponent's back.

"Stop." Li Yanzuo shouted loudly.

Captain Zhang adjusted his posture and had to fight again. Losing face in front of the chief, he has to continue to compete to save it. The sword is in his hand, and it hasn't reached anywhere yet.

Willow Leaf collects the sword in his hand. Encountering a master of swordsmanship, Li Yanzuo was eager to try. When the opponent meets the good talent, the lonely day of defeat, how lonely.
