Chapter 5: The Old Father's Anger
The camp tent in the autumn breeze was surrounded by a fire, and a group of generals were discussing how to attack the enemy.
Li Pingyuan looked at Li Chengzhi, who participated in the discussion and spoke, and showed a pleased smile.
Walking out of the door, Li Pingyuan breathed the cold air of autumn, looked at the foggy sky, but the mood was exceptionally good, this victory, Baochengguo five years worry-free, enough to pull up a cutting-edge army.
While he was thinking about how to fight those foxes in Chengguo, a figure came to him.
"Immortal, what are you?" Looking at the man in black with a mask and a sword, Li Pingyuan faintly guessed.
"Resign to General Li, since this is over, I should also go back to Xianmen." The man arched his hand, looking ready to leave.
"Why don't the immortals go back to Chengguo with me, my emperor cultivates the way of respect, and he needs the guidance of the immortals." Li Pingyuan said.
"No, this mundane thing is a mundane thing after all." The masked man shook his head and refused Li Pingyuan's offer.
"My emperor has the heart of cultivation, everyone is watching, the immortals kill the demon beasts, please say goodbye to the immortals in public, I can keep it, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to my emperor in the future." Li Pingyuan begged that if he let the emperor know that he had let go of a true immortal, he would be speechless.
"Yes, then go to the camp, and I will bid farewell to General Li in front of the generals." The masked man agreed, and his attitude seemed approachable.
"Thank you immortals, then I'll go back first." Li Pingyuan thanked him, got off the high platform, and walked to the camp.
Sure enough, these immortals are not interested in fame and fortune, just to kill demons and demons, which is different from those liars in China.
"Did you discuss something? Attack Chen Zhao first or Zhao Heng first. Li Pingyuan entered the tent and asked the generals.
In the first battle of Shioshui, the enemy's main force was crushed, and now there are still two remnants of the army still resisting.
Now we are discussing which remnant to attack first.
"No, although it is a defeated army, the two are each other's horns, relying on the terrain, taking care of each other, attacking one side, the other side will inevitably come to help, the best and safest way now is to besiege the two, they are not enough food and grass to last for two months, and when the time comes, they will not need to attack, they will collapse." Li Chengzhi said his opinion, and the other generals also nodded.
Being able to annihilate the other party by siege is naturally the safest way.
"No, it's about to be winter now, and if you can't solve them now, you're giving the country a chance to breathe." Although there are only 100,000 remnants of soldiers, the ability to cause trouble is not small, if the country is not willing to fail, and the domestic army is exhausted, it is also a big trouble to cooperate with the outside world.
"What does the general think should be done against the enemy?" A general asked.
"There are more than 500,000 troops in the alliance of Chengyu and Yu, and the troops have also been divided, but this kind of strong attack has lost the sergeants of Chengguo." In front of the generals of Yu State, Li Pingyuan said bluntly.
"General, this ......" The generals of the Yu Kingdom looked at each other.
"This depends on King Yu's decision, please write to King Yu and ask King Yu to give Hebei Province to worry about the soldiers of Heisei Kingdom." Li Pingyuan naturally wants Hebei Province more, Hebei Province borders Chengguo, which is convenient for rule, and Jiannan Road has a good foundation, but now there are ten rooms and nine empty.
"We need to discuss before we can give General Li an answer." Several generals looked at each other and said.
A few people made an appointment to go down to discuss.
At this time, the masked man walked in.
"Generals, Yun Youzi has come to bid farewell to the generals, the demons of the ghost army have been cut down, and the poor road should also go." Bow your hand to everyone.
"Immortals, are you leaving? Come back to Chengguo with us, the saint can respect the immortals, and he will definitely crown you as the national teacher. Li Chengzhi said bluntly.
He saw Yun Youzi's ability, a few zhang big birds of prey were beheaded by a sword, it can be said that a group of crows were collected by him with a small flag, and Li Chengzhi's eyes were full of stars.
"No, this worldly thing has to be done by worldly people, since the demons have been eliminated, it is inconvenient for the poor to stay." Yun Youzi refused.
"My emperor respects the Taoist cultivators very much, and I hope that the immortals will see my emperor and talk about the way of eternal life." Li Pingyuan gave up his hand and requested, anyway, he made a gesture, it was the immortals who didn't go, not that I didn't want to stay.
"The most annoying emperor in the world, please don't persuade again, immortals have immortal paths, people have their way, how can they intersect and say goodbye." Yun Youzi clenched his fists and said.
"Immortals, my emperor sincerely asks for the Tao, please have mercy on one or two." Li Pingyuan simply knelt down.
"Immortals, please have mercy on one or two." All the generals present, except for the dead-eyed Li Chengzhi, immediately knelt down with Li Pingyuan.
Li Chengzhi saw that everyone knelt, and he knelt too.
"Generals, I'm really sorry that there is a gap between immortals." Yun Youzi turned around and was about to leave.
"The immortals are slow, General Zou and they are still discussing, the immortals are also their saviors, the immortals left, they didn't say goodbye, they must have regrets for life." Li Chengzhi stood up and said.
"That's right, General Zou and they haven't come to say goodbye yet, the immortals are not short of time, don't let them leave regrets, the demon beasts broke through the phalanx, thanks to the immortals helping them survive." Li Pingyuan also hurriedly said.
"Then please get up, then wait for a few generals." Yun Youzi was not in a hurry to leave, he beckoned everyone to stand up.
A few generals, you look at me, I look at you, and slowly stand up.
"Can you know where the immortals are cultivating, I will repay them in the future, if it weren't for the immortals killing demons this time, the morale of the soldiers would be gone." Half a blow, the grain and grass were cut off, the back road was cut off, and the desperate Youjun rushed out several fierce giant birds, invulnerable, and went straight to the phalanx where several commanding generals were.
If it weren't for this immortal's shot, the consequences would be unimaginable, and the follow-up would be even more beheaded, especially when a large number of crows harassed and attacked during the pursuit, the immortal waved the small flag in his hand, the small flag became a long flag, and the evil ghosts and beasts gushing out and the crows were entangled together, and the scene was awe-inspiring.
What's more important is his high-rise style, different from those liars and Taoist priests, don't give money, don't recommend, ask is to kill demons, usually don't eat, only meditate, which perfectly meets everyone's imagination of immortals.
"I travel around on weekdays, and I don't have a fixed place to live." Yun Youzi said perfunctorily.
Just when Li Pingyuan was about to ask, the herald came in.
"General, there is intelligence." The herald handed over a piece of information.
Li Pingyuan opened it calmly, and then his expression froze, and his facial muscles twitched.
The irrepressible anger was revealed from his face, his hair stood up because of anger, and he didn't have a seizure considering that there were immortals present, but Li Chengzhi, who was familiar with him, already knew that his father was extremely angry.
"Dad, General, what's wrong." Li Chengzhi was both afraid and curious.
"It's none of your business." Li Pingyuan's eyes were red, and he held the letter in his hand.
"Is there any big move in the Youguo?" Yun Youzi looked at Li Pingyuan's expression and was also curious.
"Some family matters, don't bother the immortals." Li Pingyuan squeezed out a reluctant smile.
"What's the housework?" Li Chengzhi thought to himself, his eyes staring at the letter in Li Pingyuan's hand, and his heart was like a cat scratching.
His attitude successfully aroused the curiosity of everyone present, but Li Pingyuan held the letter, but he didn't speak, his teeth clenched tightly, and he was angry.
I took a few deep breaths, faced the eyes of my colleagues, and thought about the content of the letter, which sooner or later would have to be known to people, and it was not something I could hide.
"The family is unfortunate, and the rebel girl has an affair with a married man." Li Pingyuan couldn't suppress his anger and said.
"Second sister? Who does he fancie? Li Chengzhi's eyes widened, not only did others think that Li Ruzhi was brave and did not dare to come to the door, but Li Ruzhi himself did not look down on others, and now he was able to have an affair with a married man, Li Chengzhi felt that there was something wrong with his ears.
"Zhuang Xun, the right envoy of Hebei Province of Yu State, already has a wife, and he still sleeps in your sister's boudoir!" Li Pingyuan has the heart to kill people with a knife.
"Ah, Zhuang Xiaolian, has he been promoted? Still in a relationship with my sister? Li Chengzhi was dumbfounded, it had only been a few days, and his sister had fallen.
"When I go back, I have to come to the door and ask him, does he know whether men and women are kissed or not, and whether he knows the etiquette!" The letter mentioned that it had been spread out, and Li Pingyuan thought about the liver fire and came up.
"I didn't expect him to be this kind of person, I still admire his righteous act of daring to collect the body of the Siqin family's daughter!" Li Chengzhi was also filled with indignation, carefully took the letter in Li Pingyuan's hand, and looked at it like Li Pingyuan, his brain was buzzing, a married man seduced his sister, slept in her boudoir, and held her hand.
Even if my sister hates to marry, it won't be your turn to be a married man, you have eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, and you dare to seduce your sister.
The expressions of the other generals were different, some were smiling, some were relieved, and some were expressionless and afraid that Li Pingyuan would notice them.
Li Ping didn't pay attention to their expressions, he was angry now, and he couldn't wait to end the war here immediately and go back to Zhuang to settle the score.
"But the Zhuang Xun of the righteous funeral of the pianist girl?" The leisurely Yun Youzi spoke.
"I think he was afraid that he had an affair with the Duchess of Guo as rumored in the story, and finally went to bury her." Li Chengzhi said angrily that he had identified Zhuang Xun's identity.
The news from the front line is a little blocked, and I don't know what happened behind Zhuang Xun.
"Poor Dao once saw Zhuang Xiaolian." Yun Youzi chuckled and said, everyone's eyes converged on him, as if they were surprised why an immortal like him had a connection with Zhuang Xun.
"Miss Li really has a vision, she is filial and honest at a glance, filial piety has the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, the virtue of Xuanhuang, and Miss Li is fortunate to marry." Yun Youzi commented on the gold.
"The posture of the dragon and phoenix, the virtue of Xuanhuang? Is he worthy of being in and out of people's boudoirs like this? Li Chengzhi's resentment was also stimulated, and he was not convinced by Yun Youzi's evaluation.
"Poor people don't lie, General Li Xiao believes if he wants to, and if he doesn't want to, he will give up." Yun Youzi snorted coldly.
"Immortal, there is no matter, of course I believe you, but Zhuang asked him if he deserves the evaluation of the appearance of the dragon and phoenix?" Li Chengzhi laughed and said that Zhuang asked him to see it, and his temperament was very different from ordinary people, but it was not too exaggerated to say that it was a dragon and phoenix among people.
"What do you know, dragons can be big and small, they can rise and hide; The big one is the clouds and the fog, and the small one is hidden and hidden; Ascending is soaring between the universe, hidden is lurking in the waves, your naked eye mortal can see others have the posture of a dragon and phoenix. Yun Youzi seemed to be angry because of Li Chengzhi's questioning.
"It's because I don't know people with my naked eyes, I'm a mortal, and you can take care of the immortals." Li Chengzhi laughed and said, joking that the big bird said to cut it, he is not a fool, what to provoke him.
"But he is a married man, it is impossible to force him to divorce his wife, I can't do this kind of thing, no matter what kind of dragon and phoenix posture is, Xuanhuang Zhide Pingyuan will also ask for an explanation." Li Pingyuan was aggrieved, how could this congratulation of the immortals feel like he had climbed high.
"It's also good to be a concubine, a virtuous person, Rong and his family, Zhuang Xiaolian is the most blessed person that Poor Dao has ever seen, General Li should not be impulsive, it will be good for the two of them for a while." Yun Youzi persuaded him.
"My daughter Li Pingyuan wants to be a concubine? What kind of prince is he? Li Pingyuan gritted his teeth and said, feeling even more annoying, even if he said such words from the mouth of a respected immortal.
"The prince does not have Zhuang Xiaolian and virtuous, and Miss Li can climb to Zhuang Xiaolian, which is really her blessing." Yun Youzi was straightforward, and he didn't act anymore, and his words directly showed that it was your Li family who had climbed high.
"Ruined the reputation of the little girl, or is it the blessing of my family?" Li Pingyuan couldn't believe it and said that if he hadn't seen that kind of scene of gods and ghosts fighting, he would have wanted to greet the other party's family.
"Indeed, Zhuang Xiaolian is very good, and Miss Li can have a connection with Zhuang Xiaolian, which is indeed the blessing of three lifetimes." Yun Youzi didn't care about Li Pingyuan's black face at all, and continued to output his opinions.
What he said was completely from the heart, and whether he listened or not was Li Pingyuan's matter.
"General Li, we have discussed it, and we will write to Your Majesty immediately." A few generals who had just gone out to discuss walked in and interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Immortal, why are you here?" As soon as they saw Yun Youzi, several people were excited and said that the demon beast was coming for them at that time, thanks to Yun Youzi who fell from the sky and beheaded the giant bird.
"Come and say goodbye to you, after the exploration of the poor road, there are no monsters in the hidden army, and the next thing is the battle between your dynasty, the poor road is inconvenient to meddle, we will not change the green mountains, the green water will flow for a long time, and there will be a period in the future." Yun Youzi clenched his fists and said.
"Immortal, we haven't thanked you for your help."
"That's right, immortal, leave an offering address."
"Thank you for the kindness of the immortals."
"If there is fate, we will definitely meet again, and I wish you all great victories." Ignoring the generals, Yun Youzi walked out of the camp tent, and the generals also followed.
The flying sword on Yun Youzi's back came out of its sheath, circled for a while, and came to his feet, and Yun Youzi stepped on the flying sword and turned into a streamer.
"True immortals, too." The leading general knelt down in the direction where Yun Youzi flew away, and several generals of the Yu Kingdom also knelt.
The immortals in their mouths left the barracks and took off their masks.
It turned out to be Hejung.
Knowing that the Chengdie Pass was broken, the first thing he thought about was impossible, how to break the Chengdie Pass.
Then he went to see for himself what was going on.
I don't know if I don't see it, I was shocked when I saw it, the people of Youguo actually coexisted with demon beasts, using human flesh and blood to feed demon beasts, transporting food for them, collecting intelligence, and even having transformed demon clans as generals.
How can this be endured, but the demon clan of these generals has the protection of the national fortune of the hidden country, and it is not easy to kill, so they can only wait for the opportunity.
When they were forced to turn into a demon body, he found an opportunity to cut it in a wave, but it was also the weakness of the Yu country, and the national fortune was no longer able to protect the generals from being injured by the demon beasts, so these demon clans would think of turning into a demon body to attack the generals of the Yu country.
The follow-up is to follow the army to kill all these demon beasts that eat human flesh and blood, and then say goodbye.
I didn't expect to hear Zhuang Xun such a big melon.
"Marrying my benefactor, isn't it a blessing that I have cultivated for three lifetimes, and I want to rob my wife, and I asked the king of Hades in the underworld to agree?" He Jung, standing on the flying sword, remembered Li Pingyuan's anger, and sneered and mocked.
It's been squeezed dry, let's start four thousand words a day tomorrow
