Regarding Li Mi, Li Jiancheng admires him very much.

"I think at the beginning, Wagangzhai was just a small bandit cottage, but since Li Mi came to Wagangzhai, Wagangzhai has become a rebel army with hundreds of thousands of soldiers in one fell swoop, and it is currently the strongest rebel army."

Li Jiancheng thought of the news he had heard these days, and the appreciation in his eyes deepened a little: "The people who can make hundreds of thousands of troops in the Eastern Capital anxious are by no means mediocre people.

"So Li Mi is conceited, and he has conceited capital."

Li Yuan bowed his head slightly and agreed, "Li Mi is indeed capable, but his conceit is exactly the gap that we can exploit.

"If you want to take it, you must give it first, I will say a few more words to praise him, so that he will be more proud, and help us drag the army of the Eastern Capital and hold the pass of the Tiger Pass, so that we will have no worries about attacking Chang'an."

Li Yuan looked at Wang Yu with a smile: "Since Xiao Yu'er likes to write letters so much, then help me write a reply letter." ”

"Well, Aye, you wait."

Within a few days, Li Yuan's reply was sent to Luokou.

Li Mi couldn't wait to open the letter and see that it read, "..... Now that the people are poor, the Central Plains urgently needs a co-master, and no one can do this except the elder brother.

“..... The old man is over half a hundred years old, and his ambition is not here, but he hopes to support his brother and stabilize the world, so as to enjoy his old age in peace...."

After reading it, Li Mi handed the letter to Chai Xiaohe: "Look at it, even Tang Gong has strongly recommended me, it seems that I am expected by everyone, and the world is just around the corner."

"After you read it, take the letter to the generals and circulate it, so that they can see who is the leader of the Four Seas Alliance."

Li Mi, who held his head high, was arrogant.

Chai Xiaohe read it silently, and didn't agree with Li Mi's words very much, he said: "Can't the lord see that Li Yuan did it on purpose? He was proclaiming his goodwill to the Lord in order to have a safe way out. ”

"Of course I do." Li Mi paused for a moment, and his eyes became deep: "There are also those people like Dou Jiande, they elected me as the leader of the alliance, and suggested that I be the emperor, but just to preserve my strength."

"Then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, to see who wins, me or Yang Guang.

"Or when Yang Guang and I lose each other, they will reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Chai Xiaohe was suddenly puzzled: "Since the lord knows it, why is it.... Do so? ”

"Heh~"

Li Mi chuckled, got up and walked to the door, looking at the vast sky, his voice couldn't help but become proud: "That's because I know very well what I want, whether they are touting or sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, my goal will not change."

"Every great era needs a guide, who must be strong enough to be fearless.

"And I'm the one who leads the way."

Chai Xiaohe's heart was shocked, and he looked at Li Mi's confident smile and was speechless for a long time.

The two were silent for a long time, and Li Mi suddenly spoke: "However, I am indeed very happy, because because I am strong, they dare not offend me, and can only grovel to hold me." ”

But this flattery is temporary....

Chai Xiaohe didn't dare to say this, maybe there was no need to say it, the lord saw it so thoroughly, how could he not know this?

"Li Yuan's literary talent is not bad, no wonder he can teach such an outstanding daughter."

Li Mi praised it, and felt sorry again, but it was a pity that it was Li Yuan's righteous daughter, and he couldn't recruit it.

After Chai Xiaohe took the letter and left, Li Mi began to write a reply to Li Yuan.

Since then, Li Mi and Li Yuan have exchanged letters very frequently, and the two are like old friends who have not seen each other for many years, calling each other brothers, and the relationship is very friendly and harmonious.

------

Although Li Yuan succeeded in neutralizing a potential enemy with sugar-coated shells, the heavy rain that had been going on for many days and the imminent running out of food and grass made the soldiers in the army hesitate and be restless.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew from nowhere, saying that the Turks and Liu Wuzhou were about to attack Taiyuan, and this rumor quickly spread among the army, and the soldiers' mood became even more worried and frightened.

Seeing that the people of the three armies were panicked, their training was lazy, and their fighting spirit was gradually declining, Li Yuan had no choice but to convene officials and generals to discuss a comprehensive plan.

A group of people gathered around in the hall, and after discussing in a whisper, Pei Lin was elected to state their opinions.

Pei Lin cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Tang Gong, we discussed it and thought that it was time for the class teacher to return to Taiyuan. ”

Wang Yu sat down with Li Shimin, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but twist his eyebrows, and fled before the war?

These generals are too unreliable, right?

She swept to the people who had gathered around to discuss just now, all of them were civil servants, and most of the middle-aged generals, but Cheng Zhijie and Qin Shubao were not among the young generals.

Everyone present was like Wang Yu, with a solemn expression.

Li Yuan was the same, he had a calm face, looked at his closest old friend, and his tone couldn't help but fade a little: "Since Pei Changshi also thinks so, then tell me your reasons." ”

Pei Lin didn't hear Li Yuan's tone being different from before, and he continued: "We think there are four reasons why we must be a class teacher.

"One: Rainy weather is not suitable for combat, and we are running out of food and grass, and our supplies cannot keep up. The terrain of Huoyi City is dangerous, and there is Qu Tutong as a reinforcement behind it, and it will not be able to attack it for a while and a half, and the army will run out of food and starve to death.

"Two: The Turks are mercenary, greedy and untrustworthy, and Liu Wuzhou is in cahoots with them, so the news that Liu Wuzhou and the Turks are trying to capture Taiyuan must not be believed.

"Three: Taiyuan is our base area, the families of the soldiers are in Taiyuan, in case Taiyuan falls, the morale of the army collapses, what is the great cause?

"Four: Although Li Mi and Tang Gong made a verbal agreement and did not invade each other, after all, they did not formally conclude an alliance, and his words cannot be trusted. If Li Mi takes advantage of our war with the Sui army and stabs us sideways, we will definitely be wiped out.

"Therefore, it is better to go back and keep the Taiyuan base first, and then think about it in the long run."

"Haha~"

Suddenly, there was an inopportune burst of laughter, and it was Wang Yu, the youngest in the hall, who made the laughter.

Everyone looked over, but Wang Yu turned a blind eye and laughed insolently.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yu laughed, and Pei Lin decided that Wang Yu was laughing at him.

In front of Tang Gong and his colleagues, being ridiculed by a little girl, Pei Lin was very embarrassed and angry.

He tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and stared at Wang Yu deadly: "What are you laughing at?" ”

"I didn't laugh at you."

Pei Lin just breathed a sigh of relief, and heard Wang Yu say again: "I'm laughing at my Aya, laughing at him for accepting so many shrunken turtles." ”

Li Yuan: "......"

Pei Lian: "......"

"Poof."

Li Shimin couldn't help laughing.

Li Jiancheng pursed his lips, but the trembling muscles of his cheeks indicated that he was struggling to suppress his laughter.

Seeing this scene, the generals and officials who agreed with the class division immediately turned red, and their eyes were angry, but because of Li Yuan's face, they didn't dare to say Wang Yu on their faces.

Pei Lin is different, he has a very personal relationship with Li Yuan, and he usually regards himself as an elder in front of Wang Yu, he directly reprimanded Wang Yu: "Don't think that you have studied with Mr. Gu for a year, and you can write a few poems and a few articles, so you think you are smart and invincible in the world." ”

"I'm telling you, this is a military matter, how can you understand it as a child?

"If you don't understand, just sit down, eat your melons and fruits, and don't make trouble."
