The generals under Wang Fubao looked at Li Jiancheng and thought to themselves: "Isn't this embroidered pillow so boring? How can it be hurt in the military camp for no reason?" From Hedong.
The general understood that Li Jiancheng felt that his younger brother regarded him as a thorn in his side. Twenty years of brotherly love was not worth a ray of hatred!
Chen Yanshou didn't want his family's internal disputes to be known too much to outsiders, so he quickly changed the topic, "Even if the woman named Chen, hey, no man in the Chen family dared to fight in the past, how can a woman be so tough?! Even if that woman named Chen...
This woman is familiar with the manufacturing methods of all siege equipment, and I'm afraid she won't be too clear about the actual combat operations!" Frowning, he turned his doubtful eyes to Li Xu again, "General, back then you and Xu Maogong were in Fengbu.
, wouldn’t he also teach those warriors the means of siege?”
"Back then, neither of us had practical experience in fighting difficult battles. How could we teach others!" Li Xu smiled and shook his head. "Besides, the tribes outside the Great Wall don't build cities. Even if we have the ability to teach, the warriors of the Xi tribe may not be willing to learn!"
"In this way, the Great Wall can still be protected for the time being." Chen Yanshou nodded lightly, "The ladder can be made on a temporary basis, but other equipment is very time-consuming to make. Before the Turks know how to exert its power, we will definitely find an opportunity to destroy it.
!”
"So we must hide a sentry horse outside the Great Wall." Li Xu waved his hand vigorously and made a slashing gesture with a knife. "First use the Great Wall to consume part of the Wolf Cavalry's morale, and then take advantage of Gutuolu's unpreparedness.
, the ambush troops came out from the side, and attacked the front army. If they could hit them hard, they would hit them hard. Even if they couldn't hit them hard, most of the siege equipment would have to be burned, lest the Turks would become more comfortable with it...
.”
"We should leave a special force north of Yanshan to attack the Turks' transportation lines at any time so that Gutuolu will not be able to rest for a moment!" Chen Yanshou also waved his pen vigorously and suggested with a sneer.
"Let some brothers wear Turkic clothes. The number does not need to be too many. Two or three thousand people are enough to go against the road from Gutuolu and kill one tribe after another!" Wang Fubao added, between words,
Showing a mouth of white fangs
The generals here all have many years of combat experience. Therefore, after analyzing the enemy's situation clearly, corresponding countermeasures were quickly put forward. Due to their different experiences, the suggestions put forward by the three generals have their own characteristics. Li Xu's military style is ruthless.
Decisive, so every strategy proposed by the Boling Army was weak in attacking the enemy, even in defense, it was aggressive, and would never be passively beaten. Chen Yanshou was mature and prudent, so the strategies proposed by the Hedong generals were smooth and stable, even if they fought in their own way.
If the war doesn't go well for a while, the Central Plains soldiers and horses will not suffer too much. If they survive a difficult period, they may find the enemy's flaws and regain the weak position. The Dou family's army's tactics are so agile and erratic, like snakes in the forest, that the enemy can easily miss them.
If you notice his threat, you may be bitten by him if you are not careful.
The suggestions from the three companies were combined to make up for each other's shortcomings. Soon, a relatively complete war strategy was put on the table. Everyone repeatedly discussed the opportunity based on the weather, location, and the actual situation of the enemy and ourselves, and completed some of the omissions.
, then each of them dragged their tired bodies and dispersed.
The spring breeze has blown into the depths of Yanshan Mountain, and the air is filled with the rich fragrance of wild flowers. The starlight shines through the deep night, giving the Great Wall lying on the top of the mountain a faint silvery glow. In the night, the Great Wall seems to be slowly waking up.
, slowly stretch and stretch your limbs
"Woo---Aw---" The wild wolf roared after night, showing its fangs to all the creatures in the mountains. The Great Wall did not respond, or did not bother to respond. Only the drums in the military camp were louder, repeating a steady rhythm.
It is a proud rhythm. Only those who stand at the foot of the Great Wall and look up at the stars will understand its meaning. The duty of military officers is to protect them. They are the guardians of the Great Wall and the guardians of their homes. They are using their lives to stick to their commitments and responsibilities.
When Li Xu returned to his temporary residence, it was already the fourth watch. The lights in the room were still on, and his wife's figure was clearly printed on the window screen. Xuzi knew that Qier was still waiting for him. Over the years, this kind of
Waiting and being waited for each other has become a habit. No matter how late we are busy in the military camp, no matter how busy we are with official duties, as long as we look at each other, our hearts will become very at ease.
Before the guards came to knock on the door, the little girl Cui'er had already jumped out of the house, "The master is back!" She reminded the waiting people in surprise, and then started to make arrangements with excitement, "Fang'er, hurry up and light the fire in the kitchen.
, make a late-night snack for the master and his wife, bring the ginseng soup that the wife made for the master to Liu'er, go find some boys to clean the small pillars of the bath bucket, and prepare some beeswax...
.”
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome. I'll just bring you the ginseng soup if I'm not hungry!" Li Xu smiled and stopped Cui'er from being busy. He liked the atmosphere of this kind of home very much. It was lively and warm and could make people temporarily forget their fatigue.
"Madam, you didn't eat much for dinner!" Cui'er lowered her voice and reported, "Even if the master doesn't want to eat midnight snack..."
The next words were all stuck in my throat. The door of the house was completely opened. The mistress of the house smiled and leaned against the door, watching her husband separate from everyone and quickly walk towards her.
"Everyone is just standing there doing whatever they need to do!" Cui'er stuck out her tongue, and then continued to pretend to be intimidating. The door of the inner hall slowly closed, leaving the warm light at the door.
Xuzi's good news of defeating the Allied Forces with fewer strikes and more strikes has been heard countless times by others. But when she saw her husband come back safely, she still felt an unconcealable excitement in her heart. She married a hero who stood up to the world.
, this point, from the moment she abandoned her home and ran away, she had no doubt that this hero would stick to every promise he made to herself, no matter how heavy the rain was or how strong the wind was...
"Isn't he back safely?" Seeing that Zhen'er was excited, Li Xu took her hand and sat down, smiling and comforting her.
"Don't move, let me take a look at you!" Zhen'er looked over and over, as if to check whether her husband had lost any hair. She saw a blood streak from the neck to the auricle, sniffed her nose, and asked in a low voice: "
How did this happen? How come Daniel and the others are not careful at all?!"
"It's just a blind shot, who can see it! It's just a scratch, not a bit of flesh bitten." Li Xu laughed again, took Qier's hand and rubbed it repeatedly, "It's a small injury, you don't even need medicine."
It’s not like you’ve never seen blood, so why should you imitate the stinginess of ordinary women?”
Zhen'er pulled her hand back, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said angrily: "I would rather be an ordinary woman!" She thought about not causing trouble to her husband, and added with a forced smile, "I always hope you are safe, so I can't see you.
Does the injury still hurt? Do you want me to wash it with water for you?"
"It's okay? I'll be fine after a few days!" Li Xu smiled and shook his head. Since the day he joined the army in Liaodong, he has accumulated more than a hundred large and small scars on his body, and any one of them is deeper than the current scratch, so he is right
He didn't take this little flesh injury to heart at all, but he looked at Zhen'er's face very seriously. He gently lifted her hair and persuaded her in a very low voice: "Why don't you eat well? Look at this face."
, I’m even thinner than before I went on the expedition!”
"It's not that serious. I've been having a bad appetite lately. It's just Cui'er who complained about this girl. She should have found someone to marry her off long ago!"
Li Xu was startled and asked: "Did you see the doctor? What should I say?"
Zhen'er showed her face, her smile swaying in the candlelight, "The doctors in the army all treat trauma. It's no use looking for me. It's because my body lacks movement. Next time you go on an expedition, take me with you, and I can eat well."
, can sleep well!"
"We are already at the front, you can't go any further." Li Xu flatly refused.
"But I still can't stand by your side and beat the drum for you!" Qier protested in a low voice.
"Recently, I will no longer lead the army to attack in a few days. We can all stand on the Great Wall and watch how the brothers kill the thieves!" Li Xu couldn't argue with Qi'er, so he hurriedly talked about him.
After all, she is the daughter of a general. Zhen'er was stunned for a moment and then asked in a low voice: "Has Gutuolu's army arrived?"
"No, but it won't take a few days!" Li Xu nodded and answered.
"Are we ready here?" Zhe'er thought for a while and asked again.
No matter how cautious he was at first, with the war approaching, Li Xu's mentality relaxed, nodded, and gave a definite answer to Zhen'er, "Everything is ready! If Gutuolu doesn't come, he will definitely not get any benefits."
go!"
"How is the morale of the brothers? Are the soldiers of the three families united?"
"There are some minor grievances, but they can still cooperate in the overall situation. General Wang and Big Brother are both people with a big heart, and will not let minor disputes affect the war!"
Speaking of morale, Li Xu suddenly remembered some details and pulled Qi'er to sit down, and gently warned: "When you have time, go and see your elder brother. He seems to have encountered something recently. When everyone was sitting together to discuss military affairs,
He was distracted several times and sighed deeply every time!"
"This is the first time for my eldest brother to fight such a big battle. I'm afraid I'm very nervous!" Qier was not very willing to take on this task and put it off with a smile. Before marrying Li Xu, Li Jiancheng rarely looked at her sister, a concubine, seriously, so she
There is not much sibling relationship between her and her eldest brother, and when she sees her eldest brother once, she can guess from the other person's words that her parents' greed for the six counties is like facing a group of people who exchange their daughters for treasures.
Like a rogue in the market, making people feel indescribably awkward all over.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple!" Li Xu didn't feel as repulsive towards Jiancheng as Yu'er did. He shook his head and analyzed, "Today's military meeting mentioned that Duke Xu Maogong secretly sent me grain and fodder from Liyang warehouse. Brother Jiancheng began to sigh and mentioned
The woman surnamed Chen hates Da Sui, and his sighs are even heavier!"
"Then I won't be able to comfort him!" Qier smiled bitterly, "Xu Maogong traveled thousands of miles to deliver military rations to you? It's really hard for him! He and Lang Jun are not real brothers, but their relationship is closer than that of real brothers. Some people
, brothers want each other to die immediately..."
This time, it was Li Xu's turn to be surprised. He had vaguely guessed before that the reason why Li Jiancheng was worried was because of his estrangement from his brother Li Shimin. But from his point of view, who had been looking forward to having a brother since he was a child, even if a real brother was temporarily
When there is a misunderstanding, there will always be a day when the estrangement is dissolved, so he suggested that Zhen'er take time to open up and solve the problem of Jie Jiancheng and find a way to resolve the conflicts between the Li brothers. But what they never expected was that in just a few years,
The relationship between the Li brothers has developed to the point where it is like fire and water!
"How could this happen? I remember that when we were in Huaiyuan Town, they were still brothers and sisters?" After a while, Xu Zi was still puzzled.
Zhen'er continued to smile bitterly, "When I was in Huaiyuan, my father was unlucky. Except for the title of Tang Gong, which could not be saved, there was nothing to fight for between the brothers. But now, Tang Gong has become the king of Tang, and there may be Prime Ministers Yao and Shun in the future.
Instead!"
In front of the picturesque country, how many people can be so reserved? What kind of kinship, brotherhood, the precedent of the previous dynasty is clearly there. Thinking of this, Li Xu felt faintly behind his back. Other brothers are like this, and he picked it up cheaply.
Nephew, I'm afraid life will be even more difficult when it becomes useless!
"I can't control this matter, Lang Jun, and don't get involved. I think back then, my grandfather was angry with his elder brother for his cowardice, so he deliberately supported his second brother in order to inspire his elder brother to rise up. But later on, the second brother's wings became more and more full day by day, and things became complicated.
It has started to change. Recently I heard a letter from sister Wan'er saying that the second brother has networked a large number of capable people and strangers. Even if grandpa wants to suppress him, it will be very difficult." Looking at the dancing candlelight in front of her, Zhen'er whispered for her husband
Planning: "In order not to make things difficult for me, you have already paid enough for my family. I can't let you sink deeper. The Li family in Hedong is a bottomless pool. Those who go down may not end up with good results."
Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly, "I had no intention of going down, I just didn't want Brother Jiancheng to be distracted before the battle. Since you said so, I will be more careful..."
Even so, both husband and wife know that when the battle on the Great Wall is over, will the six counties of Boling have to make a new choice and join the Li family? Will the coldness in the big family make people shudder and not join the Li family?
?After the fierce battle, how can the six counties face the eager gaze of the surrounding heroes?
