Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Chapter 3: The Husband's Defence of the Way

"who?"

The sound of heavy footsteps quickly walked out of the hall, and then Li Tai heard the officer who led him here quickly reply: "It's the East bandits and spies captured by Guan Qianyuan..."

"I am not a spy from Dongzhou!"

Before the officer could finish what he said, Li Tai quickly denied it: "A certain person is Guiyi under the command of the high envoy of Northern Yuzhou. Li Boshan, the former Taiwei of the Li family in Longxi and the direct grandson of Duke Xuanjing, recently joined the army in Kaifu to attack the thieves. After leaving the formation due to injuries, I joined forces with King Hengnong to defeat the enemy. I felt righteous and went west to the king. Gao Shijun can learn from it, Yu Kaifu can learn from it, and Wang Shijun can also learn from it!"

He was also eager to survive. He immediately told about his prominent family background, and also tore off some of Wang Sizheng's empty city plan and put it on himself, in order to attract the other party's attention.

"Destroy the enemy troops? Have the east bandits retreated?"

After hearing the words, the general who seemed to be Shuo Hui came closer. The back of Li Tai's head was slightly pressed by a stick and he could not lift it up. He could only feel a burly figure looking down at him.

There was no need to deliberately control his expression in this posture, and he said without blushing or heartbeat: "At the end of the day, most of the bandit army has retreated, but only a few thousand cavalry are lingering in front of Hengnon City, afraid to attack."

Where did he see any rebel troops? He opened his eyes and followed his followers all the way to the west. However, the history books say that after the Battle of Mangshan, Gao Huan ordered the generals to return because they were discouraged. He only sent thousands of his divisions to pursue them. In front of Hengnon City, he was scared away by the empty city strategy of tower defense master Wang Sizheng.

Although he is a little butterfly appearing in history now, he has minimal impact on the situation. Unless he is Gao Huan's illegitimate son, I really can't think of any reason for Gao Huan to go against history and continue to lead his army in pursuit.

Of course, the records in history books may not be true. After all, there are many errors and omissions in this period of history.

But at least I have to save my life for now. At worst, when Gao Huan really comes to kill me, I will find an opportunity to jump over the wall and run over and say that I am still a loyal minister of Wei, deliberately passing on false information and waiting for King Gao to come to encircle and suppress me!

Although this idea is a bit unscrupulous, it originated from his dislike of the Eastern Wei Dynasty due to his youthful enthusiasm for his family and country, as well as his sympathy and regret for Gao Aocao's personal experience.

But for Li Tai now, both sides are the same, and he joins to either side because I can't do you now. When I seize the opportunity and become awesome, can I be as good as you?

To put it bluntly, I have great ambitions and a hungry heart. If destiny is given to me, I will only eat it. There is no need to carefully distinguish between the fishy smell and the smelly smell!

Of course, this idea is just bragging now, to relieve the tension of relying on others for life and death, and to arm yourself psychologically. His life and death are not yet certain, let alone swallowing up the west and destroying the east. If it is so easy to do, can Xiao Yan from Nanliang be so worried that he sells himself to Buddhism every day?

The general was silent for a moment and then moved away. After whispering with his colleagues, he came back and said, "Untie him."

Li Tai finally got rid of that shameful posture. First he straightened his arched back and moved his hands and feet. Soon he heard a sigh: "What a handsome son, he looks like me, a young man from Beizhen's army, not as Hua." "

Although Li Tai is fifteen years old, he is already nearly 1.8 meters tall. Due to his adequate diet and year-round exercise with horse archers, Li Tai has a tall and well-proportioned physique and is not overly bulky, so he can certainly deserve this compliment.

But when he looked up at the other person, he found that the general was a head taller than him, with a round and thick body that could hold two of him, which was obvious to Lao Fanyu.

In addition to their burly physiques, some of Hui's looks were not old, or they could not be distinguished due to years of military service, but they looked to be no more than forty years old at most.

Li Tai was about to say a few words of humility, but Shuo Hui's face suddenly darkened and he said in a deep voice: "Who are you and your relatives and friends with the same enemy and comrade! Zhao Qiaoqi is the minister of the founding dynasty and the elder of the military government. How can you be allowed to do so?" Ignorant children slander and hate!”

When he shouted just now, Li Tai felt uneasy, and it was somewhat of a gamble, but now after hearing Shuo Hui's words, he knew that the matter was settled. His reprimanding tone was very serious, but the words "Zhao Qiaoqi" were obviously erratic, as if these three words were burning between his lips and teeth for a moment.

When later generations talk about the Western Wei and Northern Zhou Dynasties, they will naturally think of the Fubing armed group represented by the Eight Pillar Kingdom and the Twelve Generals, as well as the Guanlong Group that based on this and almost built the empire, especially the most awesome father-in-law, Dugu Xin, perhaps. I subconsciously thought that the Guanlong family were close comrades and friends.

But this is not the case, especially at the moment. The fierce general Shuo Hui in front of him probably even wants to kill Zhao Gui. Zhao Gui will be listed in the Eight Pillar Kingdom in the future, but Shu Hui will die on the eve of the establishment of the upper-level military structure of Fubing.

In the Battle of Mangshan, Yu Wentai, the boss of Guanlong, led the middle army, Shao Hui led the right army, and Zhao Gui led the left army.

At the beginning of the battlefield, the fierce general Peng Le of the Eastern Wei Dynasty suddenly defeated the Western Wei Dynasty. Yu Wentai was almost killed by Peng Le. When he was being chased, he shouted: "Foolish man! If I don't exist today, how will you be tomorrow?" Peng Le fell to the ground. He followed the good example and left Yu Wentai to collect the loot and went back.

After that, the Western Wei Dynasty reorganized its army to fight again. It happened that a sergeant of the Eastern Wei Dynasty rebelled because of violating military law and informed the Eastern Wei military plane. So Yuwentai's middle army and Shuo Hui's right army attacked the Eastern Wei army formation, and General He Ba's victory rate was three times. Thousands of elite soldiers rushed directly to Gao Huan's army.

This time it was Gao Huan who was chased, and he was almost picked on by He Basheng's horse several times. Fortunately, Duan Shao and others from the Eastern Wei Dynasty came to the rescue and shot He Basheng's mount, so Gao Huan was able to escape.

In this battle, both the central and right armies of the Western Wei Dynasty fought bravely and almost succeeded. However, when the pig teammates came online, the left army led by Zhao Gui was defeated by the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

Zhao Gui was very familiar with this script, and he was also very familiar with the response. He directly led the army to run away. The left wing of Yuwentai's central army was suddenly thrown out, and they were defeated.

The right army led by Shao Hui charged the most fiercely, and was completely thrown on the battlefield. He was so angry that Shao Hui cursed: "Death in Chang'an, death in Zhong, is that different?" He then raised a flag to gather the defeated army, and the Eastern Wei army was afraid of ambush. He didn't dare to attack, so Shuo Hui was able to lead the crowd to retreat. When he went back to see Yu Wentai, he hugged and cried sadly.

The Shuo Hui that Li Tai saw now had just left the battlefield. One can imagine what kind of feelings the Shuo Hui in front of him had towards Zhao Gui.

This big brother of Wuchuan was really unreliable. He left everyone on the battlefield and ran away first, causing the victory to fail and almost destroying the entire army. In public and in private, if Shuo Hui can still have a good impression of Zhao Gui, then his self-cultivation will be like that of a saint!

"Being too old and too old to die are all disgusting things in the world!"

Li Tai calmly saluted Shu Hui, and then said with a generous face: "My husband has the ambition to defend the Tao. Where the Tao is, he will follow the direction of his body. Therefore, he abandoned the east and ran west. Even the severe punishment of the people in Dongzhou cannot stop him from pursuing the Tao." Although Zhao Qiaoqi is a treasured minister of the country, he is nothing compared to the Tao! His ambition is to defeat the army, and to suppress the people in anger. His evil is so great! It’s okay to speak out, but you can’t speak out without speaking out!”

After hearing Li Tai's speech, Shuhui was silent at first, and no subtle changes in expression could be seen on her face covered by thick hair.

After a moment, he suddenly became furious, drew out his sword with his backhand, and struck the officer who escorted Li Tai here with the back of the sword, and cursed angrily: "How can you be a spy from the East with such lofty ideals! Dog! My eyes don’t recognize true talent, so I’m looking down on the wise men. Damn it, damn it!”

When the officer saw Shuo Hui being so angry, his expression suddenly changed with fright, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"I'm so disrespectful, I'm not the one who can save you!"

Shuhui raised his leg and kicked the officer over, then handed the hilt of his saber to Li Tai with his backhand and said: "Strong words are sobering and inspiring. This little soldier's life and death will be paid to Li Lang."

Li Tai naturally did not know how to take the sword, so he took a step back and bowed again: "The army of righteousness has been forced to retreat here by God's will, how can I bear to harm it? The soldiers under my command also took advantage of this intention, but because of the misunderstanding, it has not yet happened." Innocent, please tell me, General."

"Why don't you thank Li Lang for saving your life! Release all his subordinates as well."

Shuhui then took back his sword and gave another order. He looked at Li Tai again, pointed at the officer's back and said, "If you take the sword, I won't stop you, but I will feel a little resentful in my heart. The old soldier will follow." I have been in Wuchuan for a long time, and my reputation has increased year by year, but my old friends have gradually become less and less. Every time I discuss it with my old disciples, most of them are sad because of it!"

It’s the youth who can’t go back…

Li Tai sighed in his heart and was stunned for a moment. Even though Shuohui appreciated him a little because of his argument, he was still a prisoner and there was no need to express such emotion to him.

He looked thoughtfully at Hui Hui, and saw that the fierce general's slightly sunken eye sockets showed a bit of regret. After thinking for a while, he gradually realized something in his heart.

In troubled times, only the strong can survive. Whether it is the generals of the Eastern Wei Dynasty who were born in Huaishuo Town, or the generals of the Western Wei Dynasty who were born in Wuchuan Town, they are all practicing this principle.

But when the basic requirement for survival is met, the ensuing entanglements of interest become extremely complicated, at least not something that can be resolved by force.

"Li Lang comes into the hall with me. I will arrange your subordinates in separate camps and arrange them properly. Don't worry."

Li Tai was still trying to figure out the meaning of Shuo Hui's words, when Shuo Hui stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, indicating.

The space in the Yamen Hall is not small, but the layout is simple. There are several seats and furnishings. A pair of huge armors are placed on the wooden frame. There are still knife marks and blood stains. They should be the armors that Hui wore during the bloody battle in Mang Mountain.

This fierce general is too bulky, and the armor and defense he uses are so eye-catching, and it seems like a waste of work and materials.

The two parties sat down and saw that there were still unfinished meals on several Hui tables, and Li Tai's stomach growled again.

After hearing this, Shuhui laughed and waved his hand to order the soldiers to come in and serve the food. Soon the soldiers brought two clay pots, one with rice and butter in it, and the other with buttermilk.

Li Taizheng was so hungry and thirsty that he didn't care about being shy. After thanking him, he started to eat. Soon the two clay pots were all bottomed out. Li Tai was still not full, but he didn't ask for more food. Firstly, Sorry, secondly, the taste is really not that good.

Shuhui held the food in one hand and scraped the thick beard under his chin with his fingernails. He watched Li Tai eating with a smile. Seeing him put down the bowl and chopsticks, he smiled again and said: "Li Lang's talk and style really don't sound like a Chinese father-in-law. "
