Chapter 4: Subversion (Fourth Part) Luo Yi does not need Li Xuyou’s ability to recommend him as the ambassador for the arrest of Hebei Province. He only needs the other party to express an attitude, whether the latter openly acknowledges or secretly acquiesces to his dominance in Hebei. , the Youzhou Army can easily capture Hejian, Pingyuan, Bohai and other counties.
At present, Xue Shixiong's troops are disabled and Dou Jiande and others have not yet become a leader. Looking at Hebei, only the Boling Army can create some trouble for Youzhou. As for the court's reaction, Luo Yi never considered it when he proclaimed himself the general manager of Youzhou. Now he is in The foundations of Liaodong and Youzhou have gradually been solidified, let alone the imperial court where even self-preservation is almost a problem.
But is Li Xu willing to cooperate? Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou, is not sure at all. His neighbor's temper is notoriously stubborn, as hard and inelastic as a piece of pig iron. As a colleague, At that time, Luo Yi admired this kind of temper very much. He believed that young people should have some character. If everyone was like an official tumbler, it would be boring to deal with them. But now, he hopes that Li Xu will have a brighter vision. , recognizing the fact that the Sui Dynasty was on the verge of death, instead of continuing to fulfill the responsibility of a minister and burying it, it is better to take the opportunity to push one's career forward.
People are not animals and do not need name, breed, name or blood. Luo Yi can do the same things that the noble children of aristocratic families can do, or even do them better. Over the years, it is with this belief that Luo Yi, the chief manager of Youzhou, has grown from a A guard who came from a poor family slowly climbed up to the position of brigade leader, lieutenant general, general, and general, and finally became a feudal lord. Now, he hopes that he can push the entire family forward like the legendary heroes before him.

Just like Liu Jinnu more than a hundred years ago, when people mention his name, they will only remember the great achievements he once made, and will never dare to underestimate his past experience of collecting firewood and water for people. Even if he once lived in Yes, small streets filled with sewage and flies flying everywhere will also be surrounded by brick walls covered with blue tiles, becoming a landscape that literati and poets linger on.
He hoped that Li Xu could understand his feelings, because the two people's origins and experiences were almost identical. Sometimes looking at Li Xu's growth trajectory, Luo Yi even felt that he was seeing a shortened shadow of himself, but he was very worried about Li Xu. Even if Xu understands himself, he refuses to cooperate because at the same age, Da Sui Brigade Luo Yi himself is also a person who has clear grudges and will not change his principles of doing things because of interests.
Therefore, after using a trick to push Xue Shixiong's troops into the abyss for the second time, Luo Yi did not immediately lead his troops south. He deployed tens of thousands of troops on the banks of the Sanggan River to show his confidence and strength to the surrounding counties. On the other hand, he sent his own troops Liu Yifang, the most capable confidant, went to Boling to submit a letter expressing his admiration and respect for this neighboring force.
For the Youzhou Army, which had the most powerful offensive force in the Sui Dynasty, Luo Yi had done his best to do this. If the person in charge of the other party is smart enough, he will quickly judge the situation and choose a response that is beneficial to both parties. Before Liu Yifang arrived, Boling should have been able to see what was best for them and accept the favor from Youzhou.
The negotiation process obviously did not go smoothly. More than half a month has passed since Xue Shixiong's defeat. It has been more than ten days since Liu Yifang left Jixian, and there is still no accurate answer sent back from the south.
Luo Yi was a little angry as he waited, but he couldn't show it in front of the generals. He had a lot of young generals under his command who had never experienced a war. They had long been holding back their energy to fight the Boling Army. Some of them were doing it for the future of Youzhou.
To develop the overall situation, some people just want to gain the reputation of defeating the champion general. If Luo Yi, as the coach, can't control the situation, some bold people may bypass him and take the initiative to stir up trouble.
Of course, if the opponent continues to be stubborn, Luo Yi is not afraid to give him a lesson. His reputation is earned. Although the Youzhou Army is a tiger, after all, it has been a long time since he showed his teeth and occasionally let others see clearly.
It's not without its benefits
But that was the last step. Luo Yi didn't want to fight for him unless he had to. The person named Li was a military general who crawled out of the dead. His ability was definitely several times higher than those young people in the Youzhou Army who yelled every day. Fighting with him to the end, in the end
Even if the Youzhou Army wins, it will be debilitating, which will be detrimental to their own future development, and it will also give an advantage to other competitors.
"This Li Zhongjian, I hope he is smarter!" Tormented by the feeling of waiting, Luo Yi stood up from behind the handsome desk and walked towards the window of the council chamber. The clever guards rushed forward and opened the nanmu carving for the general.
Through the window outside, the sun immediately poured in for half the day, making the scimitar on the weapon rack shudder with chills.
It is already March outside the window, and the weather is still a bit cold. The early-blooming apricot blossoms are shivering, using their bloody frozen faces to face the biting cold wind. It is a unique scenery in the North. It is sad and heroic, just like many men in the land of Yanzhao.
In the same way, I would rather turn into red mud after being gorgeous than go through this life in a useless way.
The sky was so blue and the wind was so cold and sweet. If the dream in his heart hadn't been burning for many years, Luo Yi even wanted to settle down like this and protect one side until the troubled times ended. But he knew that he couldn't calm down. The temptation in front of him was too great.
It is so big that people always feel that it can be reached with their hands, and it hardly takes any effort.
His eyes passed over the carved beams and painted buildings, and his attention was attracted by the noise in the distance. There was a small school field more than a hundred steps away from the meeting hall, where his son Luo Cheng was instructing the new soldiers to practice martial arts according to the traditions of the Youzhou Army.
, the general's personal soldiers give priority to selecting the selected young people from the descendants of lower-level generals. When they first joined the army, they worked hard with the marshal, which will have a great influence on the future development of the entire Youzhou Army and their personal growth.
Very beneficial
The four spearmen were called out by Luo Cheng. They practiced joint attack tactics with him. Luo Cheng, who was holding a long gun, was obviously much higher than these peers in martial arts. With one against four, he forced the opponent to make frequent mistakes.
The spearman lost the protection of his companions because he took too long a step. Luo Cheng quickly used his long sword to separate him from his companions.
Touch the opponent's lower abdomen to get empty, then push flat with your arms, and use the pole to sweep him to the ground.
"You're dead!" Ignoring the red face of the fallen man, Luo Cheng shouted with a smile and then quickly twisted to avoid another spear that stabbed in front of him, followed closely, clamped the barrel of the gun with his armpits, and
The front swam like a snake against it
"I'm dead!" The second soldier did not wait for Luo Cheng's judgment, and took the initiative to drop his weapon and withdraw from the battle group. Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining two opponents turned around and wanted to leave.
Give it a hard knock
"Cang!" The metal helmet collided with the four-foot sword, making a harsh noise. The two soldiers couldn't bear it, and both squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands. "You will die faster if you expose your back to your opponent. With you,
How many times have I told you!" Luo Cheng threw the Changshan to the soldiers beside him, then quickly stepped forward and picked up the two soldiers who were holding their heads and groaning. "Go, each of you will run around the school field ten times. It's long.
Remember to come back to the team again!" He shouted loudly, his face full of hatred.
"Cheng'er, come here!" Seeing that his son's training requirements were a bit too strict, Luo Yi held his hand on the window edge and shouted loudly
"Father, please wait a moment, I'll be here right away!" Luo Cheng replied simply, then took the towel from the soldier, wiped the sweat and mud off his face, and carefully inspected the silver armor and brocade robe he was wearing.
After finding that everything was neatly tidied up, he walked towards the Youzhou Army's meeting hall with a smile.
The appearance of father and son is very different. Luo Yi suffered a lot when he was young, so his complexion is darker, his frame is thicker, and his smile always has a sense of vicissitudes. However, Luo Cheng completely inherited the advantages of his mother's family, and was born with red lips and white teeth.
, ape arms and wolf waist, smiling face as bright as the sunshine at this moment
Seeing his son's relaxed expression, Luo Yi couldn't find a clue to what he wanted to say, "Don't push them too fast, take your time step by step. These people will be your arms in the future. If anyone gets hurt,
The gain outweighs the loss!" After thinking for a while, he said in front of him, but he didn't know how much his son could understand.
"Don't you always say that a strict teacher produces a good disciple? Besides, if they can't bear this little hardship, how can they follow me on the battlefield? They might as well stay behind and be a civil servant, at least they can live longer!" Luo Cheng smiled
, replied nonchalantly. In his eyes, his father's heart became softer as he got older. He was completely unlike his father who tied himself to his chest and charged into battle when he was a child. At that time, his face was splashed with the enemy's blood and he was not allowed to cry. Now it is slightly more correct.
If his subordinates were stricter, he would interfere
"Well, go ahead, you have your own way of refining weapons!" Luo Yi smiled and waved his hand, unwilling to get too entangled with his son on these details.
With the experience of a small soldier, you will not know how to understand the mood of ordinary soldiers like you do.
Looking at his son's upright back, he suddenly felt a little empty in his heart. His son and the young people on the school field were all born with titles. For them, the fame and wealth that their fathers had sacrificed their lives for were almost within their reach, without any need.
pay any price
Facing the solid city wall and the sky filled with arrows, can such a young man muster up the same courage as he did back then?
Luo Yi doesn't know, he would rather not pursue the answer
