Chapter 451 You finally admitted
(Thanks for the domineering reward of melancholy, this is the third lord of this book. This week, I have changed the lord of Sven, and I will add another week to thank the melancholic reward!
Chapter 451 You finally admitted
Although it has been through two winters, when the weather suddenly turned cold, the soldiers of the Sui army still felt a little unbearable.In the first two winters, they never came down in the cottage of Langru Mountain, and it was not difficult to live by the stove.But now they have to face hundreds of thousands of rebels and a roaring north wind.
The cold cavalry in the North Liaodi are not uncomfortable with this kind of weather. In their view, it is already much warmer than the hundred thousand mountains.Without going to that place, it is impossible to understand what is really cold and cold.
Li Xiaozong shrank in a chair covered with a thick pile of blankets, watching the smoke rising from the stove in a daze.Do not know how, he suddenly thought of the days in Fan Gu.
On a sunny day after the snow, the young man named Fang Jie came in from the outside, as usual, leaning his ass on the fire, and then took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed him.That was the dividend of the three major industries in Fan Gucheng. Because of this young man, the people and the frontiers in Fan Gucheng had better days.
After going out to fight the horse thief, the teenager would always bring his friends to drink at Yunji Dog Meat Shop.When thinking of this, Li Xiaozong couldn't help but pursed his lips.
He remembered the smell of the pear blossom stuffed in the dog meat shop. It seems that he has never tasted such a mellow wine in recent years.He remembered the Su Tu dog who was so honest to Mu Ne, and that lady boss who had a special style.Then I thought of the words that the proprietress said to him on a night with a bright moon.
That night, he had intended to kill Fang Jie.
Then he thought of the scene where Li Yuanshan's Tieqi Fanfan Gu Gu's eight hundred frontiers were killed.At that time he watched everything happen, but he didn't even have the courage to stop it.He remembers the face of each of the 800 people. With their eyes closed, the sounds and smiles of those people are still so familiar.
He could call out those names, and none of them would be wrong.
When thinking of this, Li Xiaozong felt colder.He tightened the blanket tightly wrapped around him, feeling that the cold wind could still get into his heart unscrupulously.He never regretted any decision, nor did he believe that there was any cause and effect in this world.He only believed in one truth ... Only the strong can stand.
I don't know why, he lost sleep last night.
Over the years, he has never felt this way.No matter what is difficult or happy, he can keep himself a good sleep.He can fall asleep in the snow, in the wilderness, and even in the dead.
The sky outside was still dark, and it was not time to raise the account.
It's dark outside, even darker in the big tent.
The fire is the only light source in the tent, but I do n’t know why Li Xiaozong suddenly found that the range illuminated by today ’s fire was particularly small.
Is it because of excitement?
He asked himself.
probably.
The answer given by me is not sure.
He really should be excited because he just made a decision yesterday.He planned to let Cui Zhongzhen take people to the rebel Xidaying to call for battle. His confidant Liu Silang had already rushed to the rebel Xidaying to meet Long live Meng.Not surprisingly, after dawn, Cui Zhongzhen will die under the arrow of Liu Silang.He was very confident in Liu Shiro's shooting, as if he had confidence in the shooting of his opponent.
After three days, he would order the army to return to the cottage.He will let Mou Liangbi take a team of people to protect the load, and of course, the load to take down the mountain is running out, so even if ambushed by the rebels, the loss will not feel unbearable.He has long observed the topography of the clip ditch and is best suited for ambushing.Mou Liangbi is the best logistics officer, he can sort out everything and arrange everything.But he was not a qualified general, and once besieged by the rebels he had only one way to go.As long as Li Xiaozong's rescue is a little slower, Mou Liangbi will become a corpse.
All this has even formed a picture in Li Xiaozong's mind.
As long as Cui Zhongzhen is dead, the only evidence that it is possible to know that he killed King Xujun is gone.In fact, Cui Zhongzhen did not see him kill Yang Kai, the king of Xujun.But Li Xiaozong was not sure, so Cui Zhongzhen must not stay.As long as Mou Liangbi is dead, this team of nearly 50,000 people will completely fall into his hands.Fifty thousand elites are enough for him to settle down in the northwest.
But this is not enough.
He had agreed with Long live Meng long ago, and the two of them will advance and retreat together.Once Li Yuanshan defeated, the two of them joined forces to attack Xiangzhou from behind.Xiangzhou is the foundation of Li Yuanshan and was designated as the capital by Li Yuanshan.Of course, the most perfect capital city in Li Yuanshan's mind is Chang'an, the world's first male city.
As long as Xiangzhou is broken, the court must recognize Li Xiaozong's merits.King Xuxu died, Mou Liangbi died, and the two main people responsible for the Xizheng defeat were dead. Could the imperial court also point at him?You should know that during the Western Expedition, he was just Li Yuanshan's next member.He resolutely left the rebels, and has made meritorious contributions over the past two years. These are all real, no fraud.
Of course, this is not enough.
Because these alone are not enough for the court to value him.
So Long live Meng is also dying. As long as he kills Long Meng again, he will collect nearly 300,000 rebels for his own use, even the emperor will not dare to underestimate him.Isn't it enough to have a large army of hundreds of thousands and then break through the rebel capital and change a general with a third rank?
enough
Thinking of this, the chill in Li Xiaozong's heart finally dissipated a lot.
"I'm not greedy, are I?"
He murmured, feeling that he was indeed not very greedy.Compared to Li Yuanshan, he is really not greedy.What Li Yuanshan wants is Jiangshan, and Li Xiaozong knows that he doesn't have that appetite, all he wants is glory.Zheng Sanpin's general, Kaifu Jianya, founded a family that belonged to him, much smaller than the Jiangshan dream in Li Yuanshan's heart.
People can't be too greedy, especially for things that are too vague.
Li Xiaozong knew that the road had to go step by step.
It was at this time that the horn sound of getting out sounded outside.The sun will soon shine on the earth, and a new day will begin.
He lifted the blanket around him and stretched his body.
The hard night passed.
I hope you can get a good night's sleep when it gets dark again.
He was in the dark, waiting for the light.
...
...
The personal soldier helped Li Xiaozong to put on the armor. Li Xiaozong looked down at the iron armor on his body and suddenly tranced ... The sunlight outside shone in, and the armor reflected a pale golden luster.It seemed that the iron armor on his body had turned into gold armor.
Li Xiaozong smiled and thought it was a good sign.
"Did the generals go to the big account?"
he asks.
"it's already over."
The soldier replied: "The general told me yesterday that he will go to the rebel camp today, so the generals were waiting outside the account early, just waiting for the general to raise the account."
Li Xiaozong gave a command and said, "Go and release Cui Zhongzhen, you don't have to go to the big account to listen to the order. Choose a differently staffed Zhechong camp for him and get him ready to lead."
"Well"
The soldiers agreed to tighten Li Jiazong's loop.
After Li Xiaozong was well-dressed, he walked out of the tent.When he went out, he took a deep breath of cold air, and the sleepiness that had not slept all night was dispelled a lot.
When the soldiers saw him, the respectful salute made Li Xiaozong feel very comfortable.He likes to sit in the big tent and distribute military affairs.He is a child of Li Jiashu, and he can only rely on his own efforts if he wants to become a man.He determined that one day sooner or later, the children of the big family heirs would also salute him.
Man, which one has no dream of becoming a man?
Sitting down in the big tent, Li Xiaozong arranged for the battle today, and then mentioned to the generals that if they could not fight the rebel Xidaying, they could only withdraw their troops.When he said this, his tone was heavy and his eyes were sad.After fighting with the rebels for a month, he failed to avenge the king of Asahi. It seemed that he was extremely unwilling.
But the generals also know that the cold weather is simply not suitable for fighting.The rebels are strong, and they are served without food.Sui Jun is not good, if you want to survive this winter, you can only return to the cottage to rest.
No one doubted the sadness in Li Xiaozong's eyes, and no one could perceive the joy in his eyes.
Suddenly, Li Xiaozong felt that if he was a drama, he would surely become popular all over the world.
Just after the military arrangements were completed, the outside soldiers came in and whispered something to him.Li Xiaozong's face changed slightly, and then let the generals wait for him in the big account, he left the big account alone.The soldier walked and said, "The subordinate just went to release Cui Zhongzhen. He said he would not come out. He only said that you should go over in person. He has something to ask. If you don't go to the general, he would rather die out of the cage. "
Li Xiaozong frowned: "Has anyone ever seen him?"
"Yan Chongde went to see him after last night and gave a pot of wine and a plate of cooked meat."
"What did you say?"
"Just saying the weather is cold, let Cui Zhongzhen take care of something."
Li Xiaozong yelled, although it felt weird, but he didn't care much.The place where Cui Zhongzhen was imprisoned was very close to the station where Han Yande's Han Cavalry was stationed, which was what Yan Yande asked at the time.Li Xiaozong knew that Wan Yanzhongde and Cui Zhongzhen had a good personal relationship, so he agreed.After all, he wanted to kill Cui Zhongzhen, and there was absolutely no need to start in the camp.Shutting Cui Zhongzhen near the Hanqiying camp would make him feel generous.
This is an independent tent with a wooden cage inside.When Li Xiaozong walked to the door, he saw that his own soldiers were quite at ease in his heart. Outside the tent were all his people. Anyone who came near would be alerted in advance.He opened the curtain and walked in. He saw Cui Zhongzhen sitting back to himself.
"What are you looking for me for?"
Li Xiaozong asked
Cui Zhongzhen didn't look back. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "That day, I actually saw it."
As soon as this sentence came out, Li Xiaozong's face suddenly changed.
Cui Zhongzhen said gently: "I know that today you sent me to the battlefield to say what it means to blame and condemn it. In fact, you want to kill me, right? Li Xiaozong, I still misunderstood you ... I saw that you killed the prince, but I still concealed it for you. What I did n’t expect was that you actually wanted to kill me. I never said that I still had illusions about you. I thought, as long as I If you do n’t say it, you should n’t kill it. ”
"What are you talking about?"
Li Xiaozong looked around and said in a cold voice: "The reason why you are trapped in the cage is because you are not good at fighting. The lord was killed by the rebels. My fault is that I failed to save the lord.
"There is no one else here, why should you be pretentious?"
Cui Zhongzheng turned his head and looked at Li Xiaozong's eyes seriously and said: "Let's make a deal, as long as you don't kill me, I promise not to tell you about killing the prince, how?"
Li Xiaozong was silent, then shook his head: "I do n’t know what you ’re talking about. If you do n’t call for battle today, I wo n’t be able to help you. If you make a mistake, you have to make up. . "
Cui Zhongzhen sneered: "It seems that I am definitely dying ... In fact, I also know that you found the prince out of Li Yuanshan's advice, right? Your purpose is to kill the prince, and then send all the soldiers to Hukou! Li Xiaozong , Do you really think Li Yuanshan will win? "
"I did not think"
Li Xiaozong shook his head: "So I am doing my duty to be a general of the Sui Dynasty, Cui Zhongzhen, you are really an idiot, no wonder you can't even enter the Yanwu Academy, if you are smart enough you won't say these words, because After you say it ... I won't keep you anymore. "
Hearing this, Cui Zhongzhen's eyes lit up.
He couldn't help applauding: "You finally confess."
