Li Siye finally rode on the horse. He was able to make such a concession. He really felt that Aranda was a simple little lady. If she was not simple, how could she say that? He was just riding with a woman,
There is really no need to worry. Could it be that just because of this, Gayancong was able to blackmail him?
Aranda was sitting in the front in a good mood, with a happy smile appearing on her lips from time to time. As long as she leaned back slightly, she could feel the warm and generous chest, which was much more comfortable than sheep felt.
But Li Siye didn't give her this chance, and tried to move his body as far back as possible to avoid the inconvenience caused by being too close. Aranda seemed to be on purpose. As long as the horse bumped slightly, she would lie back and be used by Li Siye.
Holding her back with her palms, she would show a bit of resentment.
In terms of stalking, she is somewhat similar to her father Gayancong.
When they were guarding the city five miles away from Congling, Tengmu and Gayan, led by their eldest son Zha Shukian, specially led their light cavalry to meet him. When they learned that Gongjuezan, the general commander of the Tibetan army in Lianyunbao, had been captured alive, both of them were extremely excited.
Teng Mu approached Li Siye on horseback and saw Aranda sitting almost in his arms. A smile appeared on his face: "This time the Qingqiu rescued the hidden troops, it can be said that it is a great achievement and a good harvest. It is a humble job."
Here’s to congratulating you in advance.”
Li Siye raised his face rudely and said, "Don't be playful and smiley, just talk about business."
Fujimaki did not take such criticism seriously at all and continued: "There is one more serious matter. The Anxi Protectorate and the Shule Town Envoy have received the report. The deputy town envoy Ma Lingcha will come in person to review the merits in the next few days. I heard that
The Protector Lai Yao will also come! We finally managed to get ahead in this place!"
Li Siye frowned and asked sternly: "Who reported this? I haven't come back yet, why didn't you ask for my consent?"
Fujimu hurriedly fell off his horse, squatted on the ground and folded his hands and said: "How dare we make our own decisions? The Lord of the country, General Gayan, sent people to Shule Town to report the news. General Gayan is really
You are so righteous that I spared no effort in praising you for your bravery and bravery in the letter. You sent out with a hundred light cavalry to save the Sanya tribe from being plundered and destroyed by the Tibetan army. But you did not mention a word about your own merits."
Aranda raised the corners of her mouth proudly, as if her father's humility and openness were the result of her own training.
However, Li Siye felt deeply that something was wrong. The Shikaku tribe suffered heavy losses. Gayancong only fought back with more than 300 troops to rescue the plundered tribesmen. He should use such merit to pay tribute to the Anxi Protectorate.
Only by asking for more rewards can he make up for the trauma he suffered this time. He doesn't want any credit, so what does he want?
He was originally in a good mood, but when he came out like this, he felt like he was stuck in a traffic jam. He had to wave his hand and said: "Let's go, let's go into the city."
The soldiers from the Shikoku Department and those guarding the city stood on the city wall or on both sides of the streets in the city, looking down at the athletes who had returned from victory.
Such a small border conflict is a major event that never happens in Shouchu City. The ten warriors who finally return will undoubtedly receive the warmest support.
Suo Yuanyu also pulled Li Twelve Niang to stand on the top of the city. Although she had no chance to be a witness to the war, the girl had rich imagination in her heart. In addition, the folk customs praised the martial spirit, and the frontier poets
His poems romantically exaggerated the idea of guarding the border and opening up frontiers, and the bravery of the army was the glory of men in the Tang Dynasty.
"I see! They're back!" Suo Yuanyu stood up on tiptoes excitedly, pulled her bestie's sleeves and said loudly: "The one in the middle must be Li Siye! He must be covered in scars and dusty clothes! Twelve Niangs
, are you ready with the bandage I asked you to prepare?"
Li Twelve Niang has nothing to do with Suo Yuanyu's liveliness. Although she also has this kind of longing and romance, she even wants to learn a new sword dance from the man's strength. But all this should be hidden in her heart.
Well, why should it be written on your face? Do you still need the gentleness and reserve of your daughter’s family?
"Don't be so loud, I, I'm ready."
She blushed and glanced at the people around her. She felt relieved when she found that no one noticed the ugly behavior here.
Li Siye's war horses came up the hillside, and their figures became increasingly clear to everyone's eyes.
Li Twelve Niang saw it first. There was a Hu girl sitting in Li Siye's arms. Her brown and black hair bun just blocked his chin. The Hu girl had a proud smile on her face, as if she was the one who had returned from victory.
hero.
Li Twelve Niang's smile faded and she took half a step back unconsciously. Suo Yuanyu opened her mouth, the excitement blooming on her face, and then she snorted heavily and grabbed Twelve Niang's arms.
Sleeves: "Let's go!"
The people nearby didn't care about the departure of the two women, and quickly filled the gap left by them, waving ropa or swords and guns to welcome the returning warriors.
The two ladies returned to the thatched cottage. Li Twelve Niang was sitting on the futon with a serious face, while Suo Yuanyu was spinning around on the floor angrily.
"I'm so angry! We were still worried that he was injured! But it turned out that he was nice, hugging him from left to right, and he was very comfortable!"
Li Twelve Niang held her breath, raised her head and asked her softly: "Yuanyu, why are you angry?"
Suo Yuanyu rolled up his sleeves angrily, stepped on the low table with one foot, pointed at the door of the thatched hall and said: "He! Him! Him!..."
She gently stroked Liu Haifan on her forehead and suddenly realized: "Yes, why should I be angry? We just want to treat his injuries, and our good intentions are regarded as nothing more than the liver and lungs of a donkey."
Li Twelve Niang smiled sweetly: "He doesn't know about your kindness yet."
"Yes, it's not necessary now!" She picked up the medicine box placed on the desk, strode out of the thatched hall, and threw it in the corner outside the door.
The two ladies sat silently on the carpet, looking at each other without saying a word.
Suo Yuanyu said angrily: "Let's pack our things and leave tomorrow. There's no point in staying here anyway."
Li Siye walked in from outside the thatched hall and took off the hat on his head, revealing his messy bun and face stained with dust. He turned around and noticed Li Twelve Niang and Suo Yuanyu sitting quietly, and asked with a smile: "Two of them
Are you going to sit here to greet me and congratulate me?"
Suo Yuanyu pouted and hummed: "What's there to congratulate for? I've been here in Anxi for one year, but I've only made a few achievements. Why should you be complacent and show off?"
Li Siye didn't take it seriously and nodded with a smile: "It's indeed a small feat, and I'm not showing off, but you can drink some wine to celebrate. I will hold a banquet in the thatched hall tonight and invite the dancers from the wine shop to dance a Hu dance. You can also
Come and support me."
"We're not interested! We don't dare to come and have fun with Li Shou!"
Suo Yuanyu stood up from the ground, grabbed Li Twelve Niang's wrist, and dragged her towards the door.
Li Siye touched the Fu's head in confusion and asked, "How did I offend you? Did I take a shot at you?"
"Can you take medicine even if you're choking? You're the one who's choking! Let's go!"
The two young ladies walked carefreely, leaning on each other's shoulders, their bright skirts flickering in the sun, and they looked instantly cute.
Li Siye shook his head and smiled bitterly. Women should not take it lightly. They simply regard anger as their own patent.
He took off his heavy armor and suddenly felt as light as a swallow. The guards brought in the copper basin, washed his face with hot water, and then put on the military attache's crotch-less robe.
Tian Zhen and Teng Mu stood at the door to report, and Li Siye waved to them to come in. Teng Mu briefly reported on the affairs of the Congling Guard in the past two days. It was nothing more than that the people who escorted the caravan in Congling returned the day before yesterday, and there were no personnel.
loss.
However, in this fierce battle with the Tubo people, six brothers were killed and thirteen were seriously injured and were lying in the banzhu house recovering from their injuries.
Fujimu also sent up the list of heads and captures. A total of 600 heads were beheaded in this battle, and a Tibetan general, three Gui shooters, and more than 300 Yong guards were captured. They were all locked up in stables and sheepfolds. In this era
Do not expect any humane treatment for the prisoners of war.
A total of more than 30 war horses were captured, as well as many weapons and armors. Except for the valuable horses, the swords, guns and armors captured were all junk. The Anxi Army, which is famous for its well-equipped equipment, looked down upon it. Li Siye wanted to wait for the Protector.
After the government sent people down to inspect it, they reported it to their superiors and sent all these things to the Department of Hiding. They really suffered heavy losses.
Speaking of the Secret Department, Li Siye's head was filled with excitement. What did Gayancong think? Put all the credit on others. Even if he is General Jinwuwei, he doesn't expect any official position, but if he comes down from the top,
