Chapter Eighty-Four: Go and Invite the Old General

Slowly, Li Zhaolong's expression gradually changed from hesitation to struggle, and finally to reluctantly accept his fate.

"Wait a moment for me."

With that, he walked into the inner hall.

It's about a cup of tea.

Li Zhaolong slowly walked out of the house.

Holding a box in both hands.

Su Xiu's eyes jumped.

The box is clearly not ordinary, and the streamer shines brightly.

At first glance, it is a rare treasure.

"Why, Master Li, why are there so many of your treasures.

Li Zhaolong ignored Su Xiu.

With a solemn expression, he put the gift box on the desk.

Then, from inside the box, take out a token.

I don't know what this token is made of.

I saw that the pattern engraved on this token was vivid.

A dragon and a tiger complement each other.

The tiger has one front paw and presses against the dragon.

The dragon is also coiled over the tiger.

The two seem to echo each other, coupled with the master's skill.

Just one glance, it seems to hear the sound of a tiger roaring and a dragon's groan.

Su Xiu looked at Li Zhaolong with question marks in his eyes, waiting for his explanation.

Li Zhaolong pursed his lips.

"This ...... This is the token that King Zhou You once commanded the cavalry. ”

Su Xiu's eyes widened in shock.

"How is it possible, how can this thing be in my hands."

As long as you know King Zhou You, it is impossible not to know the weight of this thing.

It is rumored that the current royal brother, His Royal Highness King Qin, was once a Dubo under King Zhou You.

It is no exaggeration to say that this week's Youwang can be regarded as the god of war of the previous generation.

Expanding the territory and removing the barbarians, he has already entered the Wumiao ancestral hall.

Now His Royal Highness the King of Qin, that is the military god of the Chu State.

Such characters have all served as big soldiers under him.

But anything that can be linked to this person is naturally surprising.

Li Zhaolong sighed.

"It's a long story."

"This Liangzhou Iron Cavalry was originally formed under the protection of King Zhou You."

"Later, because of King Zhou You, he won many battles and drove out the barbarians, and the first emperor favored him."

"It is even more crowned King Zhou You as the general of Zhenbei, and he has the power to control the military power of the four northern states."

"He personally gave this Xuantie Dragon and Tiger Token, and the person in charge of the token can dispatch 100,000 iron horsemen from Liangzhou."

"And before King Zhou You died, he entrusted this token to the previous Liangzhou Assassin Shi, hoping that he would return this token to the first emperor."

"But the situation is changing rapidly, and I haven't waited for the previous assassin to return this token to the emperor."

"The temple changed dynasties twice."

"Therefore, this token is kept in the Liangzhou Thorn Mansion."

Su Xiu listened to this obscure history, and he was also secretly frightened in his heart.

Thinking of this Emperor Chu, eighty percent didn't know that there was such a thing in Liangzhou.

Otherwise, someone will be sent to take it back as soon as possible.

This token is simply a small tiger talisman.

"No wonder, the backer king of Xuzhou has always been like Liangzhou."

Li Zhaolong frowned.

"That's right, before King You's death, he was friendly with the king of the backer, and the two of them were the pillar kingdoms in the northern and southern armies."

"He knows that there is nothing wrong with this."

"So, he just wants this token to control the 100,000 iron horsemen in Liangzhou?" Su Xiu's brows furrowed, and he looked at Li Zhaolong and asked.

Li Zhaolong's eyes and nose were looking at his heart, and it was obvious that he was not ready to answer Su Xiu's matter.

Su Xiu saw that he didn't answer, and he didn't ask boring questions.

"Then you are taking out this token now, are you preparing to hand over the military power of deploying 100,000 cavalry to me?"

Li Zhaolong looked helpless.

"I'm at a loss for what to do at the moment."

"Besides, these 100,000 iron cavalry have new recruits every year, and veterans are retired."

"Whether this token can be used well or not is a matter of two words."

"Unless it is an old general with prestige like the backer king Xu Da, holding this token, it can still be useful."

Su Xiu frowned.

"This Liangzhou, there are no other generals?"

Li Zhaolong lowered his head and thought for a moment.

"Yes, when the time comes, but this person has an extremely strange temper, and I am afraid it will be difficult to get out."

"Who is it?" Su Xiu asked.

"He is, the former infantry general of Liangzhou, six out of sixty this year, and once served as a deputy general under King Zhou You."

"It is rumored that this person was also a tiger general when he was young, brave and good at fighting, and has made many achievements."

"Since the death of King Zhou You, the old man is jealous and hateful, and he can't get used to the atmosphere of this Liangzhou officialdom."

"I once scolded tens of thousands of people in the army for a day because of General Liangzhou's empty salary.

"Turn the helmet armor and drag it, flick the sleeves, and stop doing it."

"Today, people are farming in Daotai County."

Su Xiu nodded.

Listening to Li Zhaolong's words, Su Xiu had a good impression of the unmasked old man who sounded a little stubborn.

It is rare to dare to scold your boss and expose your shortcomings in the army.

"This person, I'll invite him, and it will definitely be successful."

Li Zhaolong looked at Su Xiu in surprise.

That expression seemed to say that no matter who went, even if the king of heaven and Lao Tzu went, it would be in vain.

Su Xiu made up his mind and went out, without stopping for a moment.

Li Zhaolong hurriedly came out to stop it.

"Su Titiao, even if you can invite the old general, 100,000 troops will go on the expedition, and the food and salary will not be a small amount."

"Now the disaster relief money sown by the imperial court is a drop in the bucket, and there is more than enough disaster relief, but it is far from enough to go on the expedition."

When Su Xiu heard this, he looked up at Li Zhaolong.

"Then what do you say?"

Li Zhaolong said in a fake manner: "If you pass on the glass making method, there are also skilled masters in this Liangzhou." ”

"At that time, we will also hold an auction of colored glass, just like you did in Fengxi County, isn't this food enough?"

After speaking, Li Zhaolong also put on a serious expression, as if he was doing this for Liangzhou.

Su Xiu sneered inwardly.

This Li Zhaolong's calculation in his heart is really clanging.

This Liangzhou is in such a situation, and he is still thinking about his own formula.

With such Liangzhou officials, how can Liangzhou not lose it.

Su Xiu's face was like frost.

"It's useless, now the people of Liangzhou are in dire straits."

"Even if we produce colored glass, no one will buy it."

Li Zhaolong's face was stunned.

"My Liangzhou City is the capital, and now although I am in prison, it is not as good as a small county of less than 100 miles in Yanzhou."

Su Xiu retorted.

"Although Fengxi County is a remote and small county, it is located on the border of our Chu Dynasty and close to the Qi Kingdom."

"There are good trade advantages, do some Jumboden, naturally there is a market."

"This Liangzhou City is different, the weather is already cold, and the merchants will not go here.

"Most of the people here are locals, and their ancestors have settled here for generations."

"The already difficult life is now even more unbearable in the face of war."

Listening to the words, Li Zhaolong also smacked his lips regretfully.

Some regret said: "Since that's the case, then forget it." ”

Su Xiu took in the face of this person.

The corners of his eyes are slightly raised.

"Since it's okay, I'll go and ask the old general."

Su Xiu said and left the Assassin's Mansion in great strides.
