0225 Prepare for the battle

The Yu family's wedding has been in the city for many days before it is over, and Li Tai, as the assistant minister personally invited by Yu Jin, in addition to welcoming relatives, there are other things to usher in and send to participate. When the wedding was over, he was also tired.

However, this hard work is not without gain, after the wedding, Yu Jin specially prepared a thank you gift for Li Tai, not gold and silver goods and other vulgar things, but two pairs of excellent armor, the quality is far better than the Mingguang armor given by Daxingtai at the beginning of the year, not inferior to the armor of Iron Man Cai You.

Li Tai was extremely satisfied with this gift, and his men and horses were growing stronger and stronger, but the real combat effectiveness remained to be tested. At the most basic point, the armament is far from reaching the mainstream level of the current official and military private music.

The armed ration of the men and horses directly under his headquarters is acceptable, but the township regiments and the powerful private songs recruited by the Zhufang City are worrying about the armor rate, and there is almost no standard standard.

Nearly 10,000 people and horses must be armed according to the current standard of the main leader, not to mention Li Tai, who has a shallow foundation, all the current Beizhen military leaders and Guan Long Haoqiang can't do it, and it is destined to be a difficult task with a long way to go.

However, even if the level of armament is not reached, the army always has to be built, and the war must be fought. It is true that it is well equipped and powerful, but there are also ways to simplify it because of poor equipment.

In this medieval era of cold weapons, morale was a key element of the army's combat effectiveness. In addition to daily drills, military discipline and food maintenance, the super powerful performance of a few individuals on the battlefield can not be ignored to motivate morale, and sometimes it can even directly affect or even determine the outcome of victory or defeat.

Individual heroism has been prevalent in the military throughout the ages. In the troubled times of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, this atmosphere was especially serious.

The leaders of their respective regimes, such as Gao Huan and Yu Wentai, often had to go to the front line to command the battle in person, and thus left behind all kinds of dangerous deeds, so that later generations of visitors sweated for them. It's not that they don't spare their lives, but out of practical considerations and needs.

The two pieces of fine armor presented by Yu Jin are naturally not enough to arm thousands of troops, but they can rely on this to form one or two special operations teams to overcome strong points on the battlefield, so as to obtain more tactical options.

But in addition to being happy, Li Tai felt a little resentful, such a private teaching of heavy weapons, Yuwentai really indulged these generals arrogantly. Like him, who is now an emerging army leader with nearly 10,000 troops, he will never give such a heavy weapon to others.

But this is really unreasonable, regardless of whether he is too stingy or not, when this group of people raised troops to do business, his body had not yet come to the world, although he was fortunate to rise for a while, but when it came to the accumulation of all aspects, it was far inferior to this group of old military leaders.

It is precisely because of this that when he went to help the Yu family welcome his relatives before, he had a little bit of trouble with Hou Mo Chen Chong, although he was very tough when he talked to Dugu Xin, but he also felt a little pressure in his heart.

Therefore, after finishing the matters related to the Yu family's wedding, Li Tai immediately sent someone to Beizhou to inquire in detail how the withered Yin Liu family had offended Hou Mo Chen Chong, so that after a few years, Hou Mo Chen Chong still found himself here with his thoughts and troubles.

Whether it is for the sake of the face of the huge goods worth 500,000 horses of silk, or the overall consideration of running northern Shaanxi by himself, no matter whether Hou Mo Chen Chong has any substantive actions in the future, Li Tai does not intend to give in to his people and obediently help him get rid of the withered Liu family.

But at least he has to understand what kind of thunder he is on, and by the way, tell the Liu family, Lao Tzu is not just taking money and not doing things, helping you cover up such a catastrophe that is enough to lead to the death of your clan, and it is worth it to collect your money, and it is not too much to even add some money in the future.

Situational disputes are both pressure and motivation. If it weren't for Gao Huan's eyes of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, the intricate forces of Guanzhong might not have gathered around the Yuwentai Mansion so obediently.

In the same way, it is precisely because of the existence of the threat of Hou Mo Chen Chong that Li Tai can take advantage of the situation and completely pull the withered Yin Liu family, a big man from the Hu tribe, into his chariot.

As for the jealousy and hatred that Wei Chi Gang showed towards Li Tai during the wedding obstacle, Li Tai didn't bother to think deeply about this kind of battle of mood between the second middle school teenager.

If it is in the post-Yuwentai period, or when the dragon slaying team has successfully taken the position, Li Tai will also pay attention to this to avoid direct conflicts with the backbone members of the dragon slaying team.

But now that a mere lieutenant Chi Gang is a little bored, Li Tai doesn't have to pay attention to it at all. Regardless of the position or the people, Wei Chigang is greatly inferior to him, and cannot form direct competition and threat.

Of course, even if he wanted to fight back and sanction the other party, he couldn't do it, after all, Wei Chigang was also the second-generation disciple that Yuwentai focused on cultivating. After all, this dispute has to be seen separately.

When the Yu family's wedding had just ended, Yuwen Hu sent a message and invited Li Tai to the mansion as a guest, probably to act as a peacemaker and reconcile the contradictions between them.

But Li Tai refused on the grounds that he was a miscellaneous person, not because he was embarrassed, but because he felt that it was unnecessary.

Whether it is in the current Yuwen Tai Mansion, or in Yuwen Hu's own private communication circle, Li Tai can find his own position, and he can also handle the relationship and interaction with each other, but if he is happy and harmonious with everyone, there is no need for that.

At the moment, the patience and resignation, which seems to be generous and rude, may make Yuwen Hu have a kind of inertial thinking, thinking that he can bridge the contradictions with just a few words.

When Yuwen Hu ascends to the throne in the future, if Wei Chi Gang and him have a relationship of potential competition, Li Tai will not be as close as his cousins after all, and he may be forced to give up some of the power and interests that should belong to him.

In the final analysis, in this Western Wei Mansion, which is happy on the surface and full of mountains inside, Li Tai still strives to ensure a certain degree of independence, rather than completely reducing to the independence of a certain person or a certain force.

Although he often makes slanderous thoughts, he rarely expresses his true thoughts. Aside from all kinds of thinking and operations of fighting for power, he still has a sense of mission in his heart, hoping that his arrival can bring some different colors to this era.

In order to do this, power is certainly necessary, but if you blindly accommodate and go along for the sake of power, you will gradually lose your own independence. So sometimes, this kind of collision and dispute is also a wake-up call for him.

After this matter was over, Li Tai rested in the city for two days, and then planned to return to Shangyuan Township to inspect the operation of various industries in the township and formulate some production plans.

The general trend of the confrontation between the east and the west will not change because of a marriage within the hegemon, and the situation this year is also very grim, and the arrangement of river defense has not been much lighter than in previous years.

After the marriage ended, Yuwentai went straight to the front line of river defense to personally supervise. Although it is still early autumn, the dispatch of people and materials in the Kansai prefectures is already busy.

From the end of the tenth year to the beginning of the eleventh year of the Great Unification, Gao Huan in the east had been busy clearing out the Jihu tribes in the Luliang Mountains, and even the military operations were fruitful, so that the hostile forces around the Jinyang hegemony were cleared. Whether or not the offensive will continue this year is also a question that the masses in Kansai are more worried about.

Li Tai knew that next year, Gao Huan would march south and fight the last big battle in his life, but he didn't dare to say if there were any other military temptations before that.

Although he does not have to be on the front line of river defense, after all, he is already deeply involved in the current situation and needs to find opportunities in danger. Therefore, in addition to doing the current things, we must also prepare for the next battle of Yubi and a series of personnel changes after that, and take a better attitude to rub this heat and seek benefits.

But when he was about to leave to return home, he received an invitation from Dugu Xin, so he took his family to prepare some gifts and went to Dugu Xin's mansion to visit.

As a veteran figure in Beizhen, and now a prince sitting on the right side of Longyou, Duguxin's popularity has always been extremely high, and it has not been diminished because of other hot things in the city.

When Li Tai arrived, there was an endless stream of visitors in front of Duguxin's mansion. In contrast, the former residence of He Batsheng, which is close to Chi Qi and the door of the mansion is half-hidden, is doubly deserted.

Li Tai's deepest feelings in Kansai are He Batsheng, although the Si people have passed away, they still can't help but see things and think about people when they walk in front of the door. He also prepared a gift for the Miaoyin lady who was in the mourning house, dismounted and stood in front of the door, and the staff reported that it was sent into the house, and then posted in the Dugu letter house, waiting for the meeting.

Dugu Xin's gorgeous and magnificent hall is full of guests, but it is not a noisy banquet party, in the hall guests are well-dressed, Dugu Xin is sitting in the master's seat in a formal suit, with a graceful and dignified posture, seeing Li Tai entering, he only raised his hand to signal him to sit in the empty seat in front of him, and then turned his gaze back to the seat in front of him, and recited the book in a straight and round manner.

Sitting in front of Li Tai was a powerful man with a burly figure and a few favors, it was Yang Zhong, the Taizu of Sui.

Although Yang Zhong is a brave general who can catch the beast with his hands, his demeanor and demeanor are not rude, and he can be called dignified.

He bowed his head slightly to Li Tai, and then continued to listen to Dugu Xin's recitation.

After Li Tai sat down, there were not many people present at the table to greet him, and after listening for a while, he found that what Dugu Xin was reciting was actually a chapter in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, Dugu Xin specially feasted guests today, is it to give everyone a history lesson?

Looking at the full house of guests silently listening to Dugu Xin's subdued reading, Li Tai suddenly seemed to return to the junior high school Chinese class in the later generations, and his mood was quite strange.
