Volume 4 Chapter 44 The Southwest Is Not Peaceful

The Governor's Mansion of the Red Robe City.

Xiao Limin didn't tidy up his body, so he sat on the main seat in the mansion, waiting for Ji Teng to come and report the situation.

Lower to his right, Yang Rong was sitting dejectedly, without saying a word. Yang Rong fell off his horse just now, if it wasn't for Ji Teng leading the army to arrive in time, I'm afraid Yang Rong would have become one of the martyrs in this red-robed city.

Although the Red Robe City was taken, Yang Rong knew in his heart that it was not his own credit. If Xiao Limin hadn't come out, he would probably have buried the three thousand iron-headed troops, he only knew that the soldiers of the White Elephant Clan fought bravely, but he didn't expect it to be so fierce.

If he didn't have this play, then it would be decent to fight again after being injured, but he could bargain with Xiao Limin, and even get a reward. Although Yang Rong's mind was straighter, he also knew the role he played in the recovery of Red Robe City this time. He's just a decoy to attract Katsuko's attention, so the previous military order will be null and void. But now, alas.

Xiao Limin grimaced, and said like an adult training a child: "You are so capable! Three thousand iron-headed troops, nearly a thousand! You are like this, how can I explain to their parents!"

Yang Rong said in a low voice: "Isn't this forced by the situation to recapture this red-robed city as soon as possible?"

"The situation?" Xiao Limin's voice became louder: "What is the situation now? Is the whole country in danger? You have also read the book of soldiers, I don't ask you to win all battles, at least, charge under the city, or when the enemy has sufficient defense, let me ask you, what does the pig's brain think?"

Yang Rong knew that he had been, and the reckless man almost cried, and he was also sorry for those little brothers: "General, I was wrong." ”

"Wrong?" Xiao Limin's eyes were also red, so many young people, how much should they do in the future: "Do you think it's wrong, can they come back again?" Speaking of excitement, Xiao Limin directly pointed at Yang Rong tremblingly and scolded loudly: "Pig brain! Even if your 3,000 iron-headed army and the 5,000 White Elephant Clan soldiers in this city go head-to-head, you may not be able to escape! You are completely sent in by yourself!"

"I was wrong. Yang Rong sighed deeply and took off his helmet.

"Take off your clothes for me!" Xiao Limin was very excited, and his face was red with anger.

"What's the matter?" Ji Teng happened to come in and heard their conversation, he knew that Xiao Limin was angry at this time, a thousand young soldiers, and everyone would be angry.

When Xiao Limin saw Ji Teng coming, his expression softened a little, and he pointed at Ji Teng and said, "You learn from General Ji Teng!"

Ji Teng also followed and said: "I said Yang Rong, Yang Rong, you broke your leg and still have such a fighting spirit, that is to boost morale, but you are so reckless, you really shouldn't be! “

Ji Teng's words left steps for both sides. Yang Rong's move of folding his legs and charging also surprised Xiao Limin a little.

Ji Teng said again: "But then again, Yang Rong is also very meritorious, not to mention that he doesn't know the general's deployment, so he can't help but be anxious." “

Ji Teng was pleading for mercy, indicating that Yang Rong was at least a material that could be cultivated, and found another reason why Xiao Limin also felt excusable. In fact, the most troublesome thing for Xiao Limin at the moment is precisely these dead young soldiers.

Xiao Limin said lightly: "Put this matter aside for the time being." These people are all my Qingzhou children, how can I explain to their parents?"

"There is no one who has been a soldier since ancient times who has not risked his life. Ji Teng had already thought of his words: "Don't forget, general, these iron-headed soldiers were selected by the general, and most of them were selected from the families of those who had brothers in the future, so as long as the rewards are appropriate, it is not difficult." If there are children in the family, help them to study and study, and if they have brothers, help them to make a living. My Qingzhou military and people are united, and the older generation is also well aware of the righteousness, which is the blessing of the world. ”

Xiao Limin looked at Ji Teng, this old friend for many years is doing things safely: "Just according to what you say, you can do it." ”

"Ordered. Ji Teng said, and according to Xiao Limin's instructions, he went to the seat next to him and sat down.

Xiao Limin asked, "What's the situation?"

Ji Teng said: "There are no people in the city, most of them have been caught and sent to Duzhou to work as coolies." In the well in the backyard of Zhang Dudu, the bodies of his wife and young children were found, and Zhang Dudu's whereabouts are unknown. The Tietou Army lost 913 men, the Qingzhou Army lost 60 men, the Jinjiawei lost 3 men, and the wounded totaled more than 500 people. ”

Xiao Limin sighed and said to Yang Rong: "Look at it, we have superior forces, and we don't dare to clash head-on with his five thousand defenders. Even in this case, there are still so many injuries, not to mention that this is a situation when He Kun did not raise a large army. ”

Yang Rong bowed his head and was silent, if there was a next time, he would definitely rush into the military camp of the White Elephant Clan to kill and relieve his anger.

In fact, the imperial court has always guarded against the Duzhou White Elephant Clan, and Xiao Limin knows this completely. Therefore, Xiao Limin did not set up heavy troops in Hongpao City in accordance with the instructions of the imperial court, firstly, to make the people of the world think that the imperial court had treated the Duzhou White Elephant Clan as ordinary people, and secondly, if Duzhou was really opposed, then there would be a reason to raise troops on a large scale, take advantage of the situation, take Duzhou, and set up another general.

But at the moment, there is no movement on Hekun's side, and it is estimated that he is also testing, if Hekun repents and does not want to move, when the time comes, he will be able to catch one or two scapegoats, and he will be fine. Xiao Limin rubbed his temples, and he had a headache when he thought of this. His martial arts skills are not high, he likes books and literature since he was a child, if it weren't for Xiao Shifeng forcing him to practice martial arts, he would never be a general of this mansion, and it would not be bad to be a happy marquis in Taiping City. Sometimes he even envies Li Xiantong, who is free and comfortable, rich and worry-free. It's a pity that he is a royal prince and has the responsibility to help keep the peace of the world. Xiao Limin often thinks that if he has a next life, he can be a civilian.

On the Tibetan side, Li Yao also passed the news. Liao Qian's strange appearance before made Xiao Limin realize that he and him were married. Although the possibility of Liao Qian's rebellion is very small, but now that the White Elephant Clan suddenly raised troops, it must have gotten some promises and the power of other state capitals, and around this, it is also the most likely that Tibetan Prefecture is the largest. Because Tibet resists Xirong all the year round, its soldiers are strong and strong. The city defense of Tibet is very strong, even if Liao Qian draws out a large number of troops and horses to rebel, Na Xirong will not be able to enter for a while. Xiao Limin was even more afraid that Liao Qian would kill the red eyes and form an alliance with Xirong.

But after thinking about it, Liao Qian resolutely did not dare to rebel even if he was afraid that his reputation for prostitution and wealth in Tibet would be exposed. Moreover, he resisted the strict management of the army in Tibet, and had meritorious service in resisting Xirong, Xiao Shifeng loved the generals, and maybe he would not be held accountable.

What he didn't know was that Liao Qian's awe of Xiao Shifeng and Xiao Tiantu was so great, not to mention that there were thousands of young people sent to shake him and allow him more desires, but Liao Qian had already thought the opposite.
