Li Xiuning was very excited. A rather strange sense of mission filled her heart. She also suddenly understood, let me just say, I just married a sister of the Li family, how could this happen?
It turned out that I wanted to make friends, eh, I have a good taste. Then, words such as treating each other with sincerity and sharing weal and woe came flooding in.
However, this friend of hers was not very honest either. She was no longer wary, but she did not forget the purpose of her trip.
Before her second brother could catch up, she asked him politely. Before, she would not have spoken easily, but now, aren't they friends? Friends have to be sincere.
"I see that the eldest brother has a high prestige in Heng'an Town. You have to know why. It was Sister-in-law Li who held the military power before."
At this point, she herself was amused.
This matter of joining the army and marrying a general was indeed unheard of, and with the calls of eldest brother and sister-in-law, Li Bike suddenly became an outsider.
Li Po felt a little dizzy after hearing this. He also felt a little awkward with such a change of title.
He touched his chin and thought to himself, what's so strange about this? After a battle, as long as you don't die, your prestige will naturally be high.
I smacked it again and it didn’t taste right. This means we rely on women for food.
No way, just after making friends, just burying someone like this, okay, she is indeed Li Yuan's daughter.
So, he chuckled and started talking nonsense again, "Fairness, I treat every lieutenant general fairly, and naturally I am convinced by others. It can be said that there are no friends of mine in Heng'an Town, and I have never
You won’t make many friends in the military.”
"They either obey me or find another job. You see. There are still a lot of people who have nowhere to go. If they stay, they can only listen to me. And your sister-in-law also stayed. Isn't it?"
Li Xiuning tilted his head in a disdainful manner. "I'm fooling people again. When I know that the strongest in the army go first, and the eldest brother bravely wins the three armies and wins consecutive battles, I will gain the morale of the army."
Yeah, you are very cunning. Why do you ask after you know this?
Li Po shook his head repeatedly. "You are brave enough to win three armies. I fought a battle with the Turks. I was slashed twice and shot with two arrows. I almost lost my life. To be honest, I am luckier than others."
That’s all, after I came back, I thought, I can’t rush too far forward in future battles, I’m the only one in our Li family.”
Li Po is probably the only one in the world who talks about greed for life and fear of death in such an interesting way. As expected, Li Xiuning smiled crookedly after hearing this.
He chuckled and said in disbelief: "Isn't it good that I was cut twice and hit by two arrows?"
Li Po smiled and said: "That's not because I'm wearing armor. Don't believe it. I'll show you the armor I was wearing at that time, and you will know how dangerous it is. From now on, it will be the heirloom of the Li family. Let Li
The descendants of our family all know that if we go into battle, our lives are no longer ours, so we should be careful."
Li Xiuning laughed so hard that she almost fell off her horse.
Li Po curled his lips, his smile was too low. What we said was all the truth. We were laughing our ass off.
He glared at the girl who almost laughed out loud with dissatisfaction and said: "Let me tell you the truth, there are more than 32,000 households in Yunnei City, and hundreds of thousands of people are about to catch up with Mayi."
"But how can I put it? Half of them are the family members of the soldiers and the Yanmen and Shenwu people who were recaptured from the Turks. Our Heng'an town army originally only had more than 2,000 people, and most of them were brought back from Liaodong.
Soldiers."
"In the ninth year of the Han Jing Daye reign, former Heng'an Town General Han Jing led his troops to serve in front of the Zhuo County Army and took away the Heng'an Town Army. Just in time for us to return from Liaodong, we rebuilt the Heng'an Town Army."
"In the eleventh year of the Great Cause, that is, last year, it was already a foregone conclusion that the Turks would go south in the spring and summer. I don't know why the emperor brought people here. Maybe he wanted to discuss it with the Turks and let them return to Mobei.
go"
"Anyway, they didn't go back. Instead, they rushed over and surrounded the emperor at Yanmen. Our Heng'an Town had already expanded its army to seven or eight thousand people at that time, and all of them were recruited from the Yunnei Mansion. We had no choice but to wait for the order.
We had no choice but to recruit our own troops."
"If this was done in the past, it would definitely be a crime of beheading, but now, who can care about it?"
"We first fought a battle under Yunnei City. This battle was nothing. The Turks were not very smart, so they lured us into the city and wiped them out in one fell swoop. The casualties were minimal, but the capture was too little."
"Li Bi and I calculated that next year everyone would be hungry. It was the time when the Turks were withdrawing their troops, so I gritted my teeth and led eight thousand people out of Yunnei City."
"After more than ten consecutive battles in the winter, we finally defeated the more than 10,000 Turkic troops left behind. In fact, it was not a defeat. We took them in a circle around the boss in Yunnei and went all the way to Shenwu City. The Turks
I came here to feel bored and ran away overnight."
"It was freezing and snowy. Where could they go? We rested one night in Shenwu City, caught up with them, and sent 500 men to attack at night. When we went over again the next morning, the Turks had already stabbed them.
I can’t even pick up the bucket.”
"But the seizures were still small, so we had no other choice, so we led people to catch up with the Turks, all the way to the Yunzhong Grassland. In a circle, we probably traveled thousands of miles, and then we snatched back many Sui people, cattle and sheep.
"
"Back in Yunnei City, the eight thousand people are less than half. Most of them died in the battle, and the rest were frozen to death. Now the Heng'an Town Army only has more than three thousand people, which is more than the number of people in a town.
Not much more."
"These few people are more than enough to defend the city, and the others can't be of much use. You guys came here for nothing. If you don't go back, you tell your father and ask him to be merciful and send us some food. Then we Heng'an
The whole town couldn't be more grateful."
After going around in circles for so many days, I finally heard the truth. Of course, this truth is also true.
In fact, the Heng'an Town Army now has more than 5,000 veterans of hundreds of battles, and the recruitment speed is also very fast.
Needless to say, the people of Yunnei City, especially the Sui people who were snatched back from the Turks, are all young and strong men and women.
Even a large number of those captured from Yanmen were Sui soldiers.
If the current Heng'an Town Army has enough food and grass, it will be easy to recruit 20,000 to 30,000 horses, especially if there are a large number of war horses.
It can be said that there is no army in Jin that can compete with the Heng'an Town Army.
The best of the northern frontier fortresses of Jin are all gathered in Yunnei. This is a gift left by the Turks to Yunnei. Of course, it is also soaked in the blood and efforts of Yunnei's warriors.
This is a bloody gift, and it is also the most precious wealth in this troubled world.
It is a pity that Heng'an Town cannot arm all so many people.
There are no large warehouses near the border fortress. If there were, this army of tens of thousands could almost sweep the world.
Don't look at the rebels, who number more than 100,000 or 200,000 at every turn. That doesn't count. In front of tens of thousands of heavily armed frontier soldiers, they are all just chickens and dogs, vulnerable to a single blow.
Li Xiuning fell silent. She obviously didn't want to hear these bloody things.
She even felt a little guilty, feeling sorry for her new friends.
The little girl sighed, but she clapped her hands and chanted loudly, "I went to war thousands of miles away, and I flew through the mountains. The fresh air spreads to the golden watch, and the cold light shines on the iron clothes. The general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned after ten years."
Li Po sounded familiar, and after thinking for a while, he found it from his distant memory.
Now that he was familiar with it, he was not too polite, and just gritted his teeth and said, "This word sounds quite majestic, but we are not heroines, and it is too unlucky. A general will die in a hundred battles, and a strong man will die in ten battles."
It’s a new year. It sounds depressing. Let’s try another song.”
Ah, she actually knew it was Mulanci. The girl was surprised. She really thought she was a rough guy in front of her, but now she seemed to remember that this person was Li Jing's student.
His eyes rolled, and he immediately sang again.
"The white horse rides on the horns and bows, blows the whip and rides the north wind. If you have to ask for directions on the way, the captives will disappear into the clouds. I will go to summer behind closed doors, and clear the wild paths to return to winter. Overseas Chinese have many clothes, and there are few tailors on the journey. I am buried in the Han Dynasty.
, sinking his fate to Hu Feng. At dusk, the clouds rise, and the flying sand is blown away by the distant pines. He feels sad for the two capitals, and he ascends the four hills in a state of grief. The husband has made a mistake, and he chases the border troops with hatred. He abandons the love of China and wants to support Hu Ma Gong. Come and go.
What's the point of this? I'm obsessed with being born in a humble state. But let me tell you that I'm the only one who's the best."
This time Li Po immediately scratched his head, and then regretted it. Talking about poetry with others is not our expertise.
The girl looked over, this is what the poems and lyrics mean. If you can't tell me, she would probably immediately say, "Please treat me to a drink to make up for it."
This is a southern game, spread among Guanxi boudoirs, but few of the men in the Kansai clan can sing a few lines, or what else would Sui Emperor Yang Guang say? He is also an emperor when it comes to literary talent.
In fact, this is compared with the disciples of the noble families in Kansai. When they came to Jiangnan, where the literary style was at its peak, Yang Guang would still be blinded if they refused to give way to the emperor.
In fact, as the daughter of Li Yuan, she is not a daughter of the Dou family, and she is not very good at singing and answering poems.
Generally speaking, this kind of game involves a question and an answer. Talking about one's ambitions is the best, followed by nostalgia, followed by chanting about scenery. Flattery is something that scholars often do, but it is definitely a despicable thing among scholars.
Like the two frontier fortress poems above, both were written by predecessors. The first one is an excerpt, which can also be said to express nostalgia. The second one is just a forced one. It is a poem about sighing and chasing away people, just like
It's like casting a curse on someone.
However, this is also a case of playing the harp to a cow, and scolding is in vain. The person opposite heard it in confusion and thought that he was being praised.
Li Xiuning was tongue-tied in her heart. This was not her intention. The verses she remembered were very limited. Even though she played the piano well, compared to her mother who was well-read and smart, her daughter was still more like Li Yuan.
