As the commander-in-chief of the Southern Expedition, he was responsible for coordinating the overall operations, and it was not easy to stay in the rear. After Murong Yanzhao went south, Jiangling's defense not only did not relax, On the contrary, it strengthened.

As a general who stayed behind, Sun Li was very unhappy. Although the garrison task was also heavy, according to his temper, he could not attack the city and take out the stronghold. So why did he come to the southern expedition? But he did not dare to disobey the military order. Therefore, Sun Li's temper these days Very irritable.
Of course, it was not that Murong Yanzhao deliberately targeted Sun Li, but that although there were many generals in the Southern Expedition, once he left, the only one left who was qualified to guard Jiangling was Sun Li.
If we add another level of consideration, it is also true that Sun Li himself has some problems. In terms of talent alone, for today's Forbidden Army, Sun Li is not qualified to serve as the general of an army, or a large army like Si Xiaodi's army in front of the palace.
However, Liu Chengyou has always been placed in such a key military position because of his relationship with Liu Chengyou and his loyalty and bravery. After all, Sun Li followed Liu Chengyou from the Battle of Luancheng to fight with one sword and participated in the other. The soldiers who fought in the original war, as long as they are still alive, whether in service or retired, will have good development.
As for Sun Li, with his unruly temperament, he basically only obeyed Liu Chengyou. The few times he participated in the expedition, he was all under the condition that Liu Chengyou personally led the expedition. This time he went to Jinghu to conquer Jinghu, which was an old habit. In order not to affect the war, Murong Yanzhao had no intention of doing so. After much entanglement, he was simply put under guard in Jiangling.
However, as the top military officer currently guarding Jiangling, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult, but I feel a little depressed in my heart.
Dingshixuan is one of the most luxurious restaurants in Jiangling City. On the third floor, there are several banquets and banquets, and the atmosphere is noisy and vulgar voices are noisy. The people occupying this most elegant room are a group of people.
Sun Li was in charge of the case, and there were several generals under his command as well as surrendered generals from Jingnan. This time, several surrendered generals entertained Sun Li together to connect with each other. They also found several beautiful dancers to accompany him, and almost completely destroyed the restaurant. Visiting the kiln is a disgrace to elegance, but how can this warrior care about it?
"I have long heard that the general is the emperor's confidant general. He is regarded as a legion. He follows your majesty in east and west campaigns and has repeatedly made meritorious deeds. In the battle of Luan City, hundreds of thousands of Khitans were defeated and the leader of Khitan was beheaded. It was earth-shattering. ....." A red-faced general with a mustache held the wine glass in both hands, gently leaned down and touched the wine glass in Sun's hand, and complimented loudly.
The Battle of Luancheng can be regarded as a glorious part of Sun Li's military career. It was the beginning of his promotion from an ordinary military academy to a senior general, and he has always been quite proud of it.
The Jing general's praise obviously scratched his itch, he showed a very helpful expression, waved his hands, grinned and said: "Today, I am a wise man, a mighty man, and a man of unparalleled power. I am just a pawn, leading his men to fight without risking their lives." .”
"We are all overly satisfied. Such a great battle is worthy of being remembered in history and can be said to be rare in a century. We have humble experience and have always admired it. I wonder if the general can tell us about the battle situation at that time..." Another A general made an excuse, stirring up the atmosphere.
"Okay! You are happy today, so let me talk to you!" Sun Li was obviously also in high spirits. He let go of the beauty in his arms and said: "At that time, the Khitan army moved north, and their number was actually two hundred thousand. As for us, we only have 8,000 soldiers, sneaking to the outskirts of Luan City, and there are still many stragglers.
At that time, Your Majesty decided to attack the Khitan army. All the generals were very frightened and hesitant, and so was I. To be honest, at that time, I was only a thousand soldiers long, and I just thought that Your Majesty's idea was too crazy. I actually wanted to lurk and follow you. To do such a big thing, I even thought it was simply to die.
You must know that among the less than 8,000 people, except for half of the Longqi Army, the rest were newly recruited soldiers and stray soldiers. But even so, His Majesty did not even show a trace of fear.
However, His Majesty is the Holy Lord and Mingjun favored by God, and his thoughts are not something we ordinary people can guess. The Khitan is also used to being arrogant in the Central Plains, and there is not much defense.
Your Majesty encouraged the soldiers, arranged carefully, attacked decisively, made surprise attacks and set fire to the camp, causing chaos in the camp. At that time, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and the wind helped the fire spread in all directions.
I can still vividly remember that battle, and the sound of killing is still in my ears. I only know that according to His Majesty's plan, we rushed to kill, and killed people in the way, and the blood flowed from them.
Half of the many scars on my body were caused by that battle. After the war, I almost lost my life. If I hadn't been tough and if His Majesty hadn't sent all the people to treat him, Sun wouldn't be where he is today... ..."
Sun Li told an outline of his experience with great interest, but even though he drank too much wine, his mind was not yet confused. Regarding the Battle of Luancheng, the imperial court's propaganda was a complete version, which was indeed consistent with the facts. There are many discrepancies, and although what Sun Li told was from his own perspective, it did not go beyond the general outline.
And a group of generals praised them with all their heart: "The general's bravery and heroic spirit are really admirable! I wish I could participate in such a big battle, we are really not lucky!"
"This happened eight or nine years ago, it's nothing to say!" With a proud smile on his face, Sun Li pretended to be humble.
He reached out and hugged the right hand again. Sun Li bit down on the wine glass that the beauty handed to his mouth. After drinking a glass of wine, his rough right hand rubbed the big round and soft buttocks in his arms a few times. The beautiful girl screamed twice.
Sun Li said a little wildly: "Jiangling is as good as Jiangling! The wine is good and the people are friendly. Compared with Tokyo, it has a different flavor! This Dingshixuan is rare even in Kaifeng City!"
A Jing general heard the emotion in Sun Li's mouth, rolled his eyes, stepped forward, lowered his voice slightly, and said: "General, this Ding Shixuan is the property of Sikong, the envoy of the Festival Courtyard, Gao Baoyin. .”
"No wonder, they are from the Gao family! What Sikong, Jieyuanshi..." Sun Li was in the mood for wine and said disdainfully.
"The generals are right!" the general agreed, and said the following: "The imperial court wants to move the entire Gao family to the Central Plains. Gao Baoyin is selling off his property, and the restaurant here is also one of them. If the generals are interested, you can omit it. Use hands and feet..."
With a raised brow, Sun Li stared at the general with a cold gaze: "What do you mean by this?"
"This Dingshixuan is considered to be the best restaurant in Jiangling City!" The general laughed along with him: "Since everyone likes it and Gao Baoyin wants to sell it, why not fund it and take it down so that we can come here more often in the future?"
"After the Southern Expedition, I was going to return to Kaifeng, so why not stay in a restaurant in Jiangling..." Sun Li curled his lips slightly and said: "Besides, with the size of the restaurant, we can
It’s not worth how much it will cost!”
Hearing what he said, General Jing became even more energetic, and lowered his voice a little lower, saying: "Everyone can rest assured that Gao Baoyin is eager to take action. General Jing can think of ways to help all generals take over at a suitable price."
Sun Li smiled, his drunkenness subsided, and a shrewd look appeared on his rough face. He looked at him playfully: "You are so diligent, what are your intentions? Why, do you want to bribe me?"
Facing Sun Li's question, the general quickly explained: "The last general admires the general..."
"Don't say this kind of nonsense in front of me!" Sun Li interrupted him immediately, staring at the man who was a little panicked: "Although I am a rough man, I am not stupid. I must be polite to others.
I still understand the truth of asking for something. Also, why are you, a mere general, going to negotiate with Gao Baoyin for a suitable price? Could it be that you want to use my name to force him!"
There was a sense of embarrassment that his scheming had been exposed. Sun Li looked angry but not angry. The general panicked and said quickly: "How dare you, general?"
"Tell me! What is your purpose?" Sun Li asked.
"I'm waiting for you at the end, I just want to join in the general's service, I hope I can do my best!
