We arrived in Dai County in the morning and settled down in the afternoon. Before we had dinner, we heard that the Turks were invading... Li Shan rationally judged that the Turks in Shimayi could not remain indifferent, but emotionally... I am really a disaster star coming to earth!
The light rain has long since faded, the dark clouds have dispersed, and the bright moonlight shines on this ancient and war-torn town. Li Shan paced back and forth on the bluestone floor, wanting to say something... But every time his lips moved slightly,
He closed his mouth forcibly, and Ma Zhou gave him a warning look again and again.
Last year when I traveled south from Xiabo, Li Shan's mouth along the way... made everyone traveling with him frightened. Li Shan himself suspected that he was cursed and did not dare to speak at will, let alone speculate on the direction of the war.
The heavy sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly sounded. The two people turned their heads to look. The short and sturdy man got off his horse and said, "Li Langjun, we have found out clearly."
"explain."
"Two days ago, the scouts reported that they did not know who the Turkic general was. There were more than 10,000 troops marching south to attack Mayi."
Li Shan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's it, the Turks can't leave Mayi behind and attack Yanmen regardless!"
"Shut up!" Ma Zhou scolded in a low voice, and then asked: "How is the war going?"
"It is still unclear, but Daizhou Sima Liu Shirang has gone to Mayi to urge Jiangxia County Duke to lead troops to help."
The Duke of Jiangxia is Li Gaoqian, the general of Zuowuwei, who now leads the troops to guard Yanmen.
Li Shan thought about the map in his mind, nodded and said: "Whether the Turks are coming from Yunzhou south or from the northwest, Yanmen sends troops to fight against the Mayi armies, which is in line with the military strategy."
Ma Zhou suddenly asked: "Will Jiangxia County Duke send troops?"
The short and stocky man hesitated before replying: "The orders in the army are unclear, the flags are scattered, and there is no intention to send troops."
Ma Zhou looked back at Li Shan, who couldn't help but think of Li Daoxuan and Shi Wanbao... If Li Gaoqian sat back and watched the Turks attack Mayi, Liu Shirang and Gao Manzheng might not be able to withstand it.
"It shouldn't happen. It shouldn't happen." Li Shan forced himself to remain calm and whispered: "It seemed that the King of Huaiyang and Shi Wanbao were fighting that day, but it actually involved the imperial court's fight for the heir..."
Ma Zhou's Adam's apple twitched. He also knew that Li Shan was right. Li Gaoqian was a direct descendant of the East Palace, but Liu Shirang, Gao Manzheng and the Qin Palace had nothing to do with each other.
But Ma Zhou was still a little nervous. He was really afraid of Li Shan's mouth.
What is said is not working, what is said is bad...
Li Shan patted the short and sturdy man on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work today, Brother Du."
This man's name is Du Pan. He is a personal guard of Princess Pingyang. He is very senior and is from Xinzhou, Hedong. He is quite familiar with Daizhou and several leading generals. Li Gaoqian and Li Shenfu also recognize him.
So Princess Pingyang specially lent it to Li Shan temporarily.
After hearing the news of the Turkic attack, Li Shan immediately asked Du Pan to rush to Yanmen to inquire about the news. He changed horses without changing people, and went back and forth in one night, which was naturally very hard.
Letting Du Pan go and rest first, Li Shan said with a smile: "Don't worry, although Li Gaoqian has no outstanding military exploits, as a general of the Twelve Guards, he is definitely not a person who is ignorant, unless he is as timid as..."
Ma Zhou couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to cover Li Shan's mouth.
The truth is this. If the Turks attack Mayi and Li Gaoqian refuses to send troops to help, not to mention that he will probably be held accountable. The key is next. Do you expect the Turks who have eaten meat and drank blood to suddenly become vegetarians and believe in Buddhism?
No more attacking Yanmen?
One word is enough to describe the current situation, lip-smacking!
Therefore, Li Shan concluded that Li Gaoqian would definitely send troops, as long as he was not as timid as a mouse... Ma Zhou could naturally see this, so he immediately covered Li Shan's mouth, never letting this guy finish his sentence!
Shaking off Ma Zhou's hand, Li Shan pouted several times. Looking at the white fish belly that could be seen faintly in the east, he went to get a toothbrush and wash himself. When he was a child, he was very particular about not being clean and eating without getting sick... But he later became a doctor.
.
"Husband." Ms. Zhou had already stood up and was about to go to the kitchen to cook herself. She knew that her husband was not particular about food, but he was very picky and was not used to northern food, so she wanted to do it herself.
"Where's Xiaoman?"
"Still asleep."
"At this age, it's the time to snooze." Li Shan went in and took a look. Xiaoman was fast asleep, snoring quite softly. It was obvious that he was very tired from the trek in the past few days, and his delicate little hair was covered with black hair.
The face is bright and bright, and an arm as white and tender as a lotus root is exposed.
Li Shan smiled and carefully tucked his arms into the quilt. In fact, he had not wanted to bring Xiaoman here before. Princess Pingyang praised Zhou's riding and shooting skills, but Xiaoman had no power to tie a chicken.
But both his mother and Qi Bo insisted that Li Shan bring them both with him...Li Shan could also understand that in ancient times, there was a lot of blood circulation.
The Zhu family wanted to get engaged for their son at the beginning of the year, but Li Shan had other ideas... Well, the main reason was that he wanted to marry that little lady Cui, but he couldn't get there soon. He was only eleven years old this year, so it would be useless even if he got married.
This time Li Shan went to Rendai County and was close to the battlefield. He was likely to encounter war. Although it was very easy for his wife to have a concubine's eldest son before they married, it was very easy to cause objections. But in case of an accident, Zhu and Zhu Wei
They all hope that Zhou and Xiaoman can leave their bloodline to Li Shan.
Li Shan didn't care much about this. He just thought about it carefully. After the New Year, Xiaoman would be fifteen years old. Although his body was still a little green...but peach has the benefits of peach.
Crispy peaches also have the wonderful benefits of crisp peaches.
Li Shan basically didn't sleep all night. He felt a little tired, but he didn't feel tired for a while. He went out and summoned Wang Junhao, Zhu Shitou, Qi Laosan and others.
"In the past few days, Jun Hao has been serving as a guard. Shitou, Lao Qi, and Zhao Da have all dispersed." Li Shan explained: "There is no place to live... We are not here for just one or two days. We can't
I’ll always stay here.”
"Mr. Lang wants to build a house." Qi Laosan chuckled and said, "Yesterday, I went out to the city to have a look. I will choose a site today. The kiln can be built in three or two days at most."
Ma Zhou counted on his fingers, "The first is Huairen's residence, the county government office, the second is the personal guard, the guard's residence, the stables and warehouses must be built, and the third is the medical office."
"Build a residence first, then a medical office." Li Shan was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. Although he knew that this was Ma Zhou reminding him to accept people's hearts, this guy had to use this method. He was really scolded!
"The county government does not need to take care of it for the time being, and there is no need to build a special residence. I will live with my guards for the time being." Li Shan thought for a while, "The warehouse needs to be built larger. I will draw the drawings for you when the time comes."
Looking at Zhu Ba, Zhu Shitou wanted to persuade. Li Shan waved his hand and said, "No need to say it. In addition, if there is not enough manpower, we can recruit young people from the local area."
"The autumn harvest will be here soon. If we recruit young people, we must give them food rations. Brother Bin Wang will be in charge of all the accounting."
Ma Zhou reminded: "What about taxes?"
Li Shan hesitated for a moment. There was no general manager in Daizhou now. In other words, he did not have a legitimate immediate boss. He could not rush into this matter. He had better inquire about it first.
After giving instructions one by one, everyone went about their business. Li Shancai returned to the house, took off his clothes, got into bed, and casually put his arms around his small waist.
I won't be so unlucky. Although I didn't know Li Gaoqian in his previous life, he is the general of Zuowuwei after all, so he shouldn't be too timid to send troops.
While thinking about it, Li Shan slowly stroked his hand... Liu Shirang, Li Gaoqian, and Gao Manzheng, these three people will be the key figures in whether he can establish himself in Dai County.
A low murmur sounded, and the blushing Xiaoman whispered coquettishly, "Langjun, Langjun..."
The girl's charming voice turned around a thousand times, which was fascinating...but Li Shan made no move.
Xiaoman was about to turn around when he heard snoring coming from his shoulder... He also said that my snoring disturbed people's dreams, and you were obviously the loudest snorer!
