Chapter 507 If I don't go, can it still be that bastard Xiao Huaijing?
Chapter 507
"Li Mi has both placed great importance on our Shan family brothers and taken precautions against them. Now Li Mi has suffered a huge defeat."
"There have been a lot of casualties among our confidants, and many brothers have taken the opportunity to disperse. We'd better stay calm first and wait for the opportunity."
Han Shi'e took a sip of wine silently and finally nodded.
"My dear brother-in-law's words are right, but Li Mi's scheming is much deeper than that of Yang Xuangan.
I, Old Han, have never liked him, but I have to admit that this person is very capable."
"But having said that, your nephew is really an amazing person.
When Jiangdu's army came out today, Wang Bodang's more than 10,000 elite men could not even stop them for a single round."
"This Jiangdu Army is truly an elite force that is rare in the world."
Not long after the meeting, Wang Junkuo and several acquaintances of the Shan family brothers also rushed over.
They were talking in a low voice about today's defeat. In their words, they mentioned the Jiangdu Army who showed off their power today and had to admire them.
Li Mi was severely frustrated by this and had to stop his ambition to seize Luokou Cang. Instead, he set his sights on Hanjia Cang.
Five days later, Li Mi led a large army to cover up the killing and stormed the eastern capital. After that, he sent his confidant general Wang Bodang to lead an elite attack on Hanjiacang and defeated them in a battle.
Yang Qian, on the other hand, was firmly guarding the Luokou warehouse, only mopping up the bandits and bandits around him, but watching the war in the eastern capital dozens of miles away with a cold eye.
It's not that Yang Qian was unwilling to send troops to ask for help, but it was Dongdu that ever since Yang Qian led his army to settle in Luokou Cangcheng.
He didn't even send someone to say hello, and Yang Qian didn't have a good temper.
Since you think I don’t exist, why would I, the humble gentleman Yang Xiaoqian, put my hot face on Dongdu’s cold ass?

Pei Renji, who had previously received Zhang Xutuo's troops and garrisoned at Hulao Pass, received Xiao Huaijing, the supervisory censor sent by Dongdu, as well as military orders from Dongdu.
As a last resort, we had to abandon Hulao, raise troops to Dongdu to help, and repelled the Wagangzhai army that attacked Dongdu.
After winning several battles, Li Mi was forced to lead his army to withdraw from the outskirts of the eastern capital and stick to Hanjiacang.
Pei Renji, on the other hand, has been firmly guarding the outskirts of Dongdu, which made the dignitaries in Dongdu finally relax a little.
In order to reward these soldiers who fought bravely against the enemy, Pei Renji rewarded the captured property to these soldiers under his command.
However, he received fierce opposition from Xiao Huaijing and even threatened to write a letter to impeach Pei Renji.
Although Pei Renji was not as tough as Yang Qian, he still stood up to Xiao Huaijing and gave away the property.
This move really made Xiao Huaijing furious, and he petitioned to impeach Pei Renji.
On the east side of the capital, Pei Renji was ordered to seize the Han reward warehouse. However, Pei Renji wanted military rations from the east.
Dongdu miraculously dumped the blame on Luokoucang, where Yang Qian came.
This means that Hanjiacang has been lost, and Dongdu's own food is not enough. It is normal for the army to be short of food.
So, if you, General Pei, want military rations, go and deal with Yang Qian yourself.
The important thing is that Dongdu didn't even say hello to Yang Qian, and just let Pei Renji deal with Yang Qian by himself.
At this time, Pei Renji couldn't help but murmur in his heart,
Pei Renji, who had been stationed in Hulao before, heard that Yang Qian had arrived in Dongdu, so he stationed his troops in Luokou Cangcheng.
Sitting back and watching the East Capital being beaten to death, and Hanjiacang falling, these actions, in Pei Renji's opinion, were almost on the verge of a rebellion.
Until later, when Xiao Huaijing, that bastard censor, came to his army, he tried to find fault with others, which really made Pei Renji so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.
I have never seen such a supervisor looking for trouble. If he wasn't worried about the court, Pei Renji would have chopped this guy up and fed him to the dogs on the first day.
Afterwards, I heard from others about Duan Da and others' plans against Jiang Dujun, and it suddenly dawned on me that I couldn't help but envy Yang Qian's boldness.
But at the same time, he also knew very well that the reason why Yang Qian dared to do this was because his backstage was really strong.
His backstage was the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and his official position was high enough, and he was also the one who stayed in the Eastern Capital.
What's more, as soon as he arrived in the eastern capital, he won a great battle, defeated Li Mi, and captured more than 10,000 enemies. The power of Jiangdu's army suddenly became famous in the Central Plains.
With this huge victory at the bottom, naturally, he pretended to be deaf and dumb when Dongdu was giggling, and the other party had nothing to do with him.
"Father, our army's supplies are already less than five days' worth. If we don't make up our mind, then..."
Pei Xingyan, a tall and burly man with unstoppable courage, couldn't help but said anxiously as he watched his old father hesitate while stroking his thick beard.
"Why are you panicking? I know that if military supplies are insufficient, the morale of the military will be unstable.
What's more, these tigers and wolves under our command are all the powerful minions of Commander Zhang. And Xiao Huaijing has greatly offended these arrogant and powerful men these days."
"I'm worried. If I go to Luokou and something happens to the military, will you be able to suppress it?"
"Father, do you want to go to Luokou in person?" Pei Xingyan couldn't help but be stunned.
"If I don't go, how can that bastard Xiao Huaijing go?" Pei Renji shouted angrily.
Pei Xingyan could only sit down and patted his thigh in frustration.
"How about letting the child go?"
"You go and speak softly. Do you think that Yang Liushou, who is a very humane minister, will pay attention to you, a little captain?"
Pei Xingyan bulged his eyes, but he couldn't refute. Although he was superb in martial arts and fought bravely in the three armies, what could he do if the official position was given by the court?

"Commander, Supervisor Xiao is here, just outside the tent..." Before the father and son had finished their discussion, they heard the report from the soldiers.
Pei Renji felt very disgusted, but he had to stand up to greet him. "I wonder why Supervisor Xiao came to see me?"
"The lower official heard that a military order came from Dongdu, ordering our army to ask for military supplies from Luokou. I am the supervisor of the army.
Although I don't have the strength to tie a chicken, it is difficult to follow Pei Guanglu into battle, but I am willing to serve Pei Guanglu when it comes to asking for military supplies."
"Xiao Jianjun, are you so kind?" Pei Xingyan was immediately happy. You have been impeaching our father and son all day long, and now you are pretending to be a good gentleman.
Do you really think that our father and son are blind or something like that? You have offended Yang Liushou. If you let you go, wouldn't it be equal to harming our father and son?
"This is my duty. You can't let Pei Guanglu leave his post without permission, right?" Xiao Huaijing glanced sideways at Pei Xingyan and said with a sinister look on her face.
Pei Renji raised his thick eyebrows, feeling really annoyed.
"Supervisor Xiao, I won't bother you anymore. I will go to Luokou myself."
"As for you who think that I have left my post without permission, then just continue to impeach me. See you off!"
"If Pei Guanglu is not here and the Wagang bandit army attacks, and the war is unfavorable, then don't blame me for being rude." Xiao Huaijing snorted and walked away.
"Shou Jing." Pei Renji couldn't help but shout when he saw his son standing up violently and holding his big hand to the handle of the knife at his waist.
"Father, I really want to pluck off this bastard's head with my own hands."
"That's enough, alas... just be patient and patient first. Don't be provoked by him and do something irreversible."
"I took advantage of the early weather and rushed to Luokou Cangcheng, hoping to go back early..."
