"You speak slowly, don't panic, what the hell is going on?" Li Ye comforted.

The tongue of the guard finally stopped slipping, "General Xin was drunk at the banquet, and ridiculed Li Jihui, Li Jihui didn't care at first, and then Li Jihui asked his wife to toast, Xin, General Xin...... ......Hands-on, hands-on, hands

Li Ye poured a mouthful of old blood up his throat, what do you mean by moving your hands and feet?

Xin Shilang is really a brute, as an emperor, he didn't dare to "move his hands and feet", he took the lead, and in front of his husband?

How much alcohol was drunk?

I didn't see that this guy was so restless, he was like a grandson in front of him, bullying men and women outside.

And this Li Jihui, don't you know that his woman looks like a disaster for the country and the people? Don't hide it, and let her come out to toast, isn't this looking for trouble?

However, Li Ye suddenly thought of a question, "How did you escape?" ”

Xin Shilang was arrested, and it is said that Li Jihui will not let go of the fish that slipped through the net.

"The villain was put back by Li Jihui to report the news."

Put it back? Li Ye thought about it for a while, there seemed to be something wrong with this before and after, Li Jihui knew that Xin Shilang was a rough embryo, or was his wife toasting, was it intentional?

If it was on purpose, it would be interesting for him to do so.

It is very likely that he wants to surrender to the imperial court, but he doesn't know whether Li Juchuan's weight is enough, so he made such a fuss, first, to try the emperor's mind, second, to make the emperor feel indebted to him, and third, if this happens, the emperor will definitely come to talk about it in person.

Li Ye smiled in his heart, there may be omissions in this speculation, but the difference should not be far.

This Li Jihui really can't treat him as an ordinary martial artist, no wonder Li Juchuan has always praised him for his deep strategy.

In these years, none of the soldiers who played with knives were fuel-efficient lamps.

Thinking about this, Li Ye didn't panic.

"Summoning Ashina Zhenyanbu, go to Pizhou with me to meet Li Jihui for a while." In less than a stick of incense, Ashina Zhenyan's troops were assembled, but Ashina Zhenyan's face was always ashamed.

Li Ye knew that he was guilty of not making meritorious service in the siege of the city.

To the north of Fengxiang City, there are also bones everywhere that no one buried.

The fields are all deserted, and it is impossible for the people to cultivate with peace of mind.

Guanzhong has not stopped for more than ten years, one big war after another, Guanzhong has been emptied, Datang has also been emptied, Kandong, Jianghuai, and Shuzhong have caught up, and Datang has declined.

In the previous military rebellions, Yizong and Xizong ran to Shuzhong, and there was an exemplary role of the emperor, and the people also ran to Shuzhong.

As a result, Shuzhong has gained a large number of people and achieved unprecedented development.

When I met Wang Jian again, it was difficult for him not to rise.

Fengxiang can at least see some vitality in the territory, into Pizhou, it is simply a red land, this place is in the southwest of the Loess Plateau, drought and little rain, crops are not easy to grow, plus Wang Xingyu is such a lively and active lord, you can imagine the situation in the territory.

Li Ye was originally worried about Li Jihui's rise with Pizhou, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

No wonder Li Maozhen was not interested in Suining Town when he was in power.

The most elite place in the northwest is the Fengxiang area, as well as the south of Feng and Xing Erzhou.

Control these three states would give you control over the entire Northwest.

Coupled with Chang'an and Fengxiang, with the Wei River as a link, the entire Guanzhong will be revitalized. The only flaw is the population.

Fengxiang has less than 200,000 people, plus Chang'an, Tong, Hua and other prefectures, such a vast area, the combined population does not exceed one million.

At the same time, Bianzhou had a population of almost 800,000, and Xuanzhou under Yang Xingmi's rule had a population of more than 700,000.

The population of Guanzhong as a whole is not as large as that of the Central Plains and Jianghuai Prefectures.

Li Ye can't remember the specific figures, the population of 80 million in the Tang Dynasty and 20 million in the late Tang Dynasty was there. With such a comparison, you can know how big the gap in strength is and how weak Guanzhong is.

Of course, there must be more than this person in Guanzhong, there are frequent wars, and the people have avoided the mountains.

Compared with Fengxiang City, Pizhou City is one heaven and one place, and it is the scale of a small town in later generations.

Li Ye just showed the banner of the Son of Heaven, and rode a few horses in the city to meet a few horses, the people on the horse did not wear armor, nor did they bring weapons, they all wore cyan round-necked robes, and the wind and dust rushed to the front of the battle, and the first person threw the saddle and dismounted, and half knelt on the ground: "The last general Yang Chongben greets Your Majesty!" ”

Yang Chongben is Li Jihui's real name.

Li Ye looked at this person on the horse, about thirty years old, with smart eyes, a slight beard under his chin, his appearance was dutiful, wearing a round-necked robe, not like a martial artist at all, but a little more civil.

Now that he calls himself Yang Chongben, it is obvious that he is drawing a line with Li Maozhen.

And with these few people, he dared to come to see himself in front of the battle, which was quite bold.

originally thought that this person was a big man in the northwest like Wang Xingyu, but he didn't expect it to be such a person. "General Yang, please." Li Ye didn't dare to underestimate him.

Yang Chongben got up and saluted very respectfully, "The last general is looking forward to seeing His Majesty's face day and night in Pizhou, and today he will get what he wants." ”

Li Ye smiled and said: "I am in Fengxiang, and I also think about General Yang, but I don't know if General Yang has the Tang Dynasty in his heart." ”

Yang Chongben bowed his hand: "The last general has long had the heart to serve the court, and he only hated to get it before he came here." ”

If you take it seriously, your brain will be in water. A month ago in Huazhou City, this guy was determined to be an iron-headed baby.

Li Ye laughed dryly twice, and both of them tacitly did not mention Xin Shilang's matter.

"The traitor Li Maozhen has been defeated, and Guanzhong is in ruins, I don't know what General Yang's plans are." If you have anything to say, just pick it out now.

"Why did Your Majesty say this, the end will naturally be at Your Majesty's will."

Don't look polite now, in Li Ye's heart, this is no different from talking about business and doing business.

"In the tired land of Pizhou, General Yang doesn't do this festival, I will set up another army, as the Xiangwu army, garrison Chang'an, and the money and food will be supplied by the imperial court, what does the general think?"

Yang Chongben's gaze was uncertain, it was one thing to defect to the imperial court, and it was another thing to defect to the imperial court.

Feng Xingxi and Wang Xingyu both defected to the imperial court, but their treatment was very different.

Doing business pays attention to your love and my wishes, and the twisted melon is not sweet, this is already the best condition that Li Ye can offer, as for the envoy of the Suining Festival, don't think about it, it is impossible to get down a Wang Xingyu, and send another Li Jihui, now called Yang Chongben.

Yang Chongben was quite acquainted, and he didn't mention the envoy of the Ning Festival, but he was unwilling to surrender to the imperial court like this, after all, he had 7,000 troops under his command and a Pizhou.

In fact, Li Ye values Yang Chongben more as a person.

With the expansion of territory, the demand for generals is also great.

Yang Chongben seemed to have other ideas, and bowed his hand to Li Ye and said: "The last general will get up recklessly, how can he be?" There are rude people around him, and they don't dare to stay in Chang'an and disturb the holy driver. ”

Once the beast enters the jungle, how can it return to its cage?

Li Ye was annoyed in his heart, this guy really dared to refuse, did he think that a Pizhou 7,000 army could resist the current Tang Ting?

I thought he was a handsome man who knew the times, but I didn't expect him to be a stupid person who didn't shed tears when he didn't see the coffin.

Li Ye sighed, "It seems that General Yang can't trust me, and he can't trust Datang." ”

said this, but in his heart, he was thinking: No matter how poor Tang Ting is, it is no problem to kill you Yang Chongben.

If Li Ye is motivated, he can let the guards cut down these people now.

However, because Li Juchuan and Xin Shilang were still in the city, Li Ye held back.

Yang Chongben knelt on his knees and kowtowed to Li Ye respectfully, "The last general will please town Qinzhou!" ”
