Looking at the black and oppressive heads in the camp, there is no longer the feeling of emptiness before, and there is a great sense of strength and might. At the very least, there is also a sense of security that individuals are powerful. But Cheng Zhijie's heart was weak for no reason, and he repeatedly said to Li Kui like a helper: "Brother, you have to save me!" ”

"Save you? I can't protect myself, why don't I write to my father-in-law and let him break off the relationship with the old Liu family! In the past, when my father-in-law was in distress in the Huaiyang Army, I didn't see a few relatives who helped him. Li Kui tilted his head and wanted to fold, but the method he came up with felt unreliable no matter how he listened to it.

But Cheng Zhijie thinks it's a way, anyway, when he was poor, he had no relatives, but now that he is developed, he will come to the door, who can afford it?

His eyes lit up, and he felt that if his father-in-law Liu Baosheng came forward, maybe it would be a big thing, a small matter, and nothing to do. It's just that he didn't dare to come forward in this matter, so he could only look at Li Kui expectantly.

The meaning couldn't be simpler, it's brother, you go; My brother gave you a sweep.

But how could Li Kui do such a tasteless thing, he is a civil official, responsible for IQ, and responsible for making ideas? Immediately he was not happy, and glared: "As the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son, you are the son-in-law of the Liu family, and my prospective son-in-law is too difficult to speak." ”

Li Kui took himself out with a word.

Leaving Cheng Zhijie's endless grievances. He knew that Li Kui was unreliable at home, but the question was, did Cheng Zhijie have the courage to instigate his father-in-law Liu Baosheng and Liu Yannian to turn against him!

"Brother, I'm bitter! The fifth brother doesn't care if he is at home or outside, he will listen to you, but your second sister, she will scratch people if she doesn't go well, if she knows that my brother and I instigated her father to fall out with her uncle, no matter whether there are outsiders or not, I can make my brother unable to get off the stage, alas......"

When it comes to this, even the perfect plan has lost its executor and has become full of loopholes.

But when it comes to scratching people, Li Kui remembered the big orange cat in the imperial city, General Huang. It was the first of its kind in the Imperial City. After that, he came to the northwest, and he couldn't take a cat with him, right? General Huang was then raised in the Taishi Mansion, but General Huang was used to the wilderness, so he would not live at home at all, but the place to eat changed from the imperial city to the Taishi Mansion. Of course, the quality of the meals has not declined, and in the mansion near the Taishi Mansion, the ladies of the house have the habit of keeping pets, and having a cat is undoubtedly a very good choice. There is food and drink, and you can go to the boudoir of the little female cat anytime and anywhere, which is envious!

"By the way, General Huang is okay?"

"The big orange cat? What's so bad about it? The fifth child is raised for you, don't worry! Perhaps, in a few days, the yellow cats near my father-in-law's house will be flooded, and it will have a part to blame. ”

As he spoke, the topic was crooked.

It's not deliberately crooked, the key is that Li Kui has nothing to do about the current situation.

Called Ruda, this guy has a set of captain's outfits in five and six, and he also chose a tall horse among the horses, quite a general's demeanor.

"Luda, how many people did you bring from Qin Fenglu's army?"

Ruda blinked for a while and shook his head in confusion: "I haven't counted, but one of my commanding centaurs is obviously enough." ”

Expecting Luda to get things done, Li Kui really thinks too much, this thing looks very smart, but he can't read. It is estimated that the roster of 500 people for a conductor was also written for him by the people below, and he realized that he had already commanded the adults.

Li Kui waved his hand weakly and said to Luda: "You go down, train people first." ”

Luda stood in place and struggled for a while, and asked tentatively: "My lord, shouldn't you eat and drink first?" ”

"What do you think?"

Li Kui asked.

Seeing that his suggestion was likely to be adopted, Luda showed his neat big white teeth, and laughed non-stop: "Drinking, I think I have to drink at least to be happy, and I can make my brothers happy by drinking a big drink." ”

Glad?

Not to mention Li Kui, even Cheng Zhijie was stunned by Luda's wonderful idea. When you become a boss, you still want to make your subordinates happy, what do you think? Don't let your subordinates scold your ancestors behind your back, you are already a good boss, and you want to make your subordinates happy. Where is the number of the army's path, exactly like the path of the bandits.

Drinking a lot of wine and eating a lot of meat, there is really such a good thing, who would say that being a soldier is hard?

Even Cheng Zhijie couldn't stand it anymore, and lowered his face and said angrily to Luda: "Get out!" ”

"Go back and ask Nian Xi and Feng Zhang, how to be a good conductor." When Luda was leaving, Li Kui couldn't help but mention a few words. After the others left, Cheng Zhijie looked at Luda's back thoughtfully, and suddenly asked Li Kui curiously: "Renjie, you seem to have a good impression of him?" ”

This sounds like a rotten one.

Of course, Li Kui couldn't admit it, and retorted: "There is no such thing. ”

Cheng Zhijie was afraid that his expression would not be clear, so he explained: "Not only him, but also Pang Wanchun, plus Luda, Li Yun will not say it, he is your brother, any help should be." But Luda and Pang Wanchun are different, Luda is just a family guard that you recruited on the street, and Pang Wanchun only had a meeting with you at the beginning, so you personally came forward to write a letter to recommend me. For so many years, apart from the two of them, it seems that even the fifth child has never made you so concerned? ”

Looking back on the past, it seems that this is really the case.

The more Li Kui listened, the more weak he became. Ruda's martial arts value is very strong, and it can be said that Ruda's physical talent is almost on par with him, and he is affectionate and righteous, and he is a talent that can be cultivated as a diehard. Ruda's template is also a general who can charge forward in front of the formation.

As for Pang Wanchun, staying by his side can be used as a means to save his life. Pang Wanchun's superb archery skills are simply incredible. And Pang Wanchun's ability to command the army is even better than Luda in Li Kui's opinion, this is a general who can lead the army when released.

If Li Kui said so, no one would believe it.

Li Kui can't say that he is like thunder to the two of them, right? There is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason. The best way to explain a person's kindness but not for a reason is, "Maybe the two of them look pleasing to the eye, right?" ”

Although this statement is perfunctory, it can also be justified.

As he was talking, Feng Zhang, who was suddenly guarding the camp in the barracks, ran into the tent and shouted: "Oh no, my lord, general, no, the generals of Qin Fenglu blocked the camp gate with soldiers and horses, and scolded people at the gate?" ”

"Who is the number of people in the lead, and are they armed?"

Li Kui had already expected this situation, and asked unhurriedly: "I don't have a bow and crossbow, but I just carry a straight knife and a pen knife with me." One of the Marquis Du Yu of the Qin Fenglu Army led by him is guarding the camp today. ”

This slender and short knife had the same status as a dagger in the Song army, and basically every soldier had it. Self-defense, chopping wood, and building camps are just not many opportunities to be used on the battlefield.

Li Kui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Stop them and don't let people step into the camp." By the way, push the cannon to the camp gate and pretend. ”

Thousands of people were lost, not to mention the Marquis of Du Yu in the army, even Liu Yannian would come.

Hearing that the camp gate was blocked, Cheng Zhijie suddenly became anxious and muttered, "What should I do, what should I do?" What if they're going to rush in? ”

"Let people stop and delay for a while. Maybe Master Zhang will help us settle it. Li Kui pretended to be relaxed.

Cheng Zhijie's face was sallow, as if he was terminally ill, and his eyes were full of panic and uneasiness: "Renjie, why don't you send people back?" ”

"Send it back? After the expansion of the army, do you still want to get troops from the Beijing camp? Li Kui said that Cheng Zhijie's sore spot: "Second brother-in-law, you should know how long you have to train the soldiers of the Beijing camp to have the strength to fight." Qin Fenglu's soldiers can fight a tough battle if they pull them out, but the old soldiers of the Beijing camp can still put the main general on the battlefield, and they will run away by themselves, believe it or not? ”

The corners of Cheng Zhijie's mouth were bitter, Li Kui's words were reasonable, and he believed it. The Tiger Battalion has already cost him countless efforts. Even his father-in-law Liu Baosheng has been hooked into countless favors. Middle-level officers are all selected from the best of the best, and soldiers are also selected from the best of the best in the Beijing camp. But in fact, without Li Kui's bullet pressure and Gao Yu's 1,000 soldiers who had retreated from the battlefield to the death, Cheng Zhijie and his Tiger Battalion would not have been able to confront the Tanguts in the field and stand their ground.

Not to mention the tens of thousands of troops in Western Xia, it is already a blessing that the entire army is not destroyed.

Being able to hone the will of the soldiers and save the lives of most of the soldiers is an unavoidable battle in the first place, and even Li Kui does not believe that he can meet it again.

In particular, the strong lethality of artillery on the battlefield has taught the party members a bloody lesson. In the future, it will be extremely difficult to establish battlefield superiority with artillery alone.

After all, today's weapons can't dominate the battlefield with their lethality.

Although Li Kui wanted to destroy the Western Xia, there would be more hard battles and tough battles in the future, and how could he win on the battlefield in the future without soldiers with strong will on the battlefield?

After the Tiger Battalion was surrounded, the news soon reached the ears of Lu Huiqing and others.

Su Zhe didn't speak.

Zhang Qi was embarrassed to speak.

But Liu Yannian trembled angrily, and after slapping the bookcase abruptly, he scolded angrily: "These two rabbit cubs are simply undisciplined." The old man has to set a rule for them today. ”

How could a few old and sophisticated Wenchen not hear the meaning of Liu Yannian's words?

How many people are having headaches?

To say that Li Kui is not authentic, it is true. But the problem is that they can't say that Li Kui is bad, they are all civil servants, and they must have a clear position when facing military generals.

This is embarrassing, it is impossible to punish Li Kui, and it is even more inappropriate to chill Liu Yannian's heart. But Liu Yannian's names for Cheng Zhijie and Li Kui made them think of a solution.

Zhang Qi laughed and said, "Housework? ”

Liu Yannian said with a smile: "That's right, housework." ”

Su Zhe raised his head and stared at the beam of the house for a while, and said leisurely: "It is difficult for a Qing official to interrupt family affairs!" ”

Lu Huiqing echoed: "The old man is also powerless. ”

Liu Yannian received replies from several of the largest civil officials in the northwest promising not to mix, so he was naturally full of confidence. With his personal guards, he rushed straight to the camp of the Tiger Battalion, and on the horse, he pondered: Li Kui and Cheng Zhijie captured at least 20,000 war horses in Western Xia, and the old man asked for 10,000 is not too much, right?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Compared to war horses, soldiers are a fart. As many as you want, as long as you report to the Privy Council, Qin Fenglu's army will lose five thousand more people, and this person can be replenished into his army anytime and anywhere. You don't even have to make a big son yourself. But the war horses are different, and the court has no extra war horses, and the 20,000 war horses in Li Kui's hands suddenly became a piece of fat on Liu Yannian's mouth.

If you don't open your mouth and bite hard, you're sorry for your relatives.

Otherwise, he is handsome, and he still uses the school field to give the two juniors a good face, beautiful them?

Thinking about good things, the journey became very short, and before he knew it, he came to the camp outside the tiger camp, and his subordinate Du Yuhou saw his own boss coming, and ran to Liu Yannian's horse crying, and pouted on his knees in front of the horse and cried: "Handsome! The perfunctory forbidden army was too rude, and with the reason of rewarding the three armies, they actually came to our army to pull people. ”

Liu Yannian didn't even look at his subordinates, raised the horsewhip in his hand and shouted at the camp gate: "Let your general go out of the camp to see the old man!" ”

"Who are you!"

It is Luda who lies on the top of the camp gate, and one of the Tiger Battalions is counted as one, compared to strength, Luda is no worse than Li Kui; is even more unmatched than the voice, and the matter of shouting naturally falls on Ruda.

"Who are you?"

Ruda had already recognized the identity of the other party, but he pretended to be stupid and had a lot of experience, pretending not to know.

Lying on the camp gate, he shook his head and puffed up his chest and said: "I am the commander of Luda in the camp, if you have something to say, don't call my general at every turn, the general is busy!" ”

"Can you call the shots?"

Liu Yannian looked down on Luda, and there was a distance between heaven and earth. The commander of the small army dared to speak so wildly to himself, and it seemed that he wanted half of the war horses or less.

At this time, Du Yuhou, who was next to Liu Yannian, opened his mouth and complained: "Marshal, this person is the head of the thief who came to my military camp to coax my soldiers, and he can't be let go!" ”

Luda glared at the Wupin military general opposite, without the slightest instinct of inferiority, and said angrily: "I am looking for a good livelihood for my brothers, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Yannian saw that Luda was a rammer, and it was useless to say more: "Tell Cheng Zhijie and let him come to see me." I'm his aunt's uncle. ”

Alas, it turned out to be relatives.

Luda was stunned and came down from the camp gate, Cheng Zhijie and Li Kui were hiding under the camp gate, Luda had no choice but to look at Li Kui for help.

"If you don't have someone, let's talk about compensation?"

Okay, Luda climbed up to the camp gate again, and shouted to Liu Yannian condescendingly: "If there is no person, can we talk about compensation?" ”

Liu Yannian nodded with satisfaction, and said bluntly: "You have captured 20,000 war horses, and I Liu don't ask for much, give me 15,000, and forget about it." ”

Luda was busy with the message, and in the last sentence, Li Kui couldn't agree at all, so Luda refused.

Luda lay on the camp gate and shouted at Liu Yannian as if he was mournful: "Straight lady thief, if you want a war horse, there is no door!" ”

Liu Yannian's face suddenly darkened.

And Cheng Zhijie, who was hiding under the camp gate, was also frightened: "Something terrible, let you refuse, but didn't let you scold?" ”
