Many years after the battle of Xiabo, Huaiyang King Li Daoxuan once again served as a practical general and returned to his hometown. Li Daoxuan was both excited and suppressed in his heart.
Whenever there is a lull in important events, when Li Daoxuan arrived at Yanmen Pass, he suddenly remembered Li Shan's farewell message of breaking the willows on the Ba Bridge.
Therefore, Li Daoxuan showed the image of a tolerant but well-controlled boss that night. He was of the same lineage as the King of Qin. He used Li Shimin's words to hit Pang Yu. When the latter was indignant, he also hinted that he would ask His Majesty for help. Pang Yu was the commander of the march of Hedong Road.
He not only knocked down the restless Pang Yu and eliminated the unstable factors, but also used this gentleness to give him the status of Chang Shi, but he was beneath himself.
After so many years, Li Daoxuan was no longer the young prince who had his own way before the battle.
Then Li Daoxuan and Qin Wutong talked about everything that happened after the First World War in Guji Town. They laughed and talked about Wei Siwang Li Huairen's domineering seizure of the army, and the first victory report with Qin Wutong as the first name that day... That was also Li Huairen showed the beginning of his break with Li Yaoshi.
After brothers Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun arrived, Li Daoxuan spoke in a friendly tone. One was a direct descendant of the King of Qin, and the other was Li Shanyi's brother Jinlan.
The news gradually spread, and generals and generals from Yanmen Pass and nearby garrison came to pay their respects. Li Daoxuan only thought that the more the better, and talked with everyone about Li Huairen's great achievements in defeating the Turks three times, and asked about the details at that time.
A similar scene never appeared after Li Shan left Daizhou. After all, the manager of Daizhou at that time was Li Jing.
The mountain of corpses and sea of blood in Guji Town, the excitement of cutting down the Khan flag, the wanton killings of the cavalry pursuit, but the most talked about are Li Shan's sharpshooting outside Guji Town, and Li Shandan during the Battle of Yunzhou Riding Duansha into the formation.
There was a commotion inside and outside the house. Even Qin Wutong, Xue Wanche and other generals could not stand it any longer. The Daizhou army all thought that they had strong soldiers and horses, and they all boasted that they were the strongest army in the world. After the great defeat of the Turks, their morale, combat effectiveness, and strength were all over the place. After receiving rapid promotion, they all have the desire to go to war with the Turks.
This desire ranges from Li Yaoshi, the former general manager of Daizhou, to ordinary soldiers. Many people except Li Jing have a view that if Li Shan had been the general manager of Daizhou, the glory of the second victory over the Turks would still be Daizhou. military.
This statement is somewhat nonsense, because the joint forces of Dubu Khan and Tuli Khan went south because the Liang divisions were stirring up trouble in the northwest of Guannai Road, giving the Turks an excellent opportunity, and many people in the Daizhou Army felt that, The Turks attacked the Guannai Road, largely because Li Huairen, the heir to the throne of Wei, was in Longzhou at that time...Well, wasn't there Liang Jun who attacked Longzhou?
In the end, wasn't King Si of Wei the one who took back Huating with all his personal guards?
The mood of everyone present was a little excited. Only two people were still sitting, one was Huaiyang King Li Daoxuan and the other was Pang Yu. Even Qin Wutong, the general manager of Daizhou, was talking to several middle-level generals, and his voice was still Not small.
At first, Pang Yu was a little unhappy. He felt that Li Daoxuan was rejecting him by telling the story of King Wei Si, but soon he didn't think so, or he didn't care anymore.
Pang Yu felt very clearly that the originally wavering military morale quickly stabilized after Li Daoxuan arrived, and gathered around Li Daoxuan. Everyone was talking about Li Huairen, and he could even hear that Li Huairen's title was "King of Handan".
Qin Wutong looked sideways at Pang Yu. During this period, he was very, very annoyed with this Korean man. He really regarded himself as his boss. He was a sensible person and leaned over to Li Daoxuan as soon as he arrived... On the one hand, it was because he knew that he could not compete with Li Daoxuan, not because of the opponent's status, but because of the opponent's friendship with Li Shan. On the other hand, Qin Wutong did not have much confidence to cope with this battle.
None of the generals below are stupid, and they also know very well that Li Daoxuan immediately summoned the generals after arriving and mentioned Li Shan frequently. No one, at least no one would refuse openly, otherwise they would become the target of public criticism.
A majestic general strode forward, prostrated himself on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Highness, the Turks have returned and frequently appear outside Yanmen Pass, cutting off traffic. Mayi, Guji Town, and Sancho Town have been fiercely attacked by the Turks. Please give me orders." Exit."
Pang Yu couldn't help but yelled: "The Yanmen Gate covers the east of the river, and all roads and routes need to be heavily guarded. How dare you leave the gate so lightly?!"
Looking at Qin Wutong and Xue Wanche, Pang Yu took a deep breath and said, "Soldiers are important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the road to survival. We must observe them!"
"Sun Tzu's Art of War" has a clear meaning at the beginning, and you thought you were the only one who had read it!
Qin Wutong was still able to hold his own, but Xue Wanche, a reckless man, couldn't bear it any longer, "Does Mr. Han want to imitate the pharmacist?!"
This sentence immediately caused a commotion. A young officer with arrow marks on his face looked at Pang Yu coldly. He was Li Shen, who came from a local powerful family in Dai County. He served as Li Shan's personal guard in his early years and worked in Guji Town. At the last moment of the battle, he followed him out of the stronghold to charge, and he was lucky enough to survive.
Li Shan recuperated in Daizhou for several months after the war. In his deal with Li Jing, he placed all his old friends in various places. This was also a factor that made Li Jing very uncomfortable later... It's not that Li Shan had other thoughts. With so many people following you through fire and water, you have to do something good for them, right?
There are more than one or two examples similar to Li Shen, which is one of the reasons why Li Shan still has a high prestige in the Daizhou Army.
The initial fight between Pang Yu and Qin Wutong was over the command of Daizhou's army, but after the Turks attacked, it turned into a fight over whether Daizhou would send troops.
Pang Yu was recommended by Li Shimin and personally appointed by Li Yuan to come to Daizhou. His first task was to prevent the Turks from breaking through Yanmen Pass, plundering Daizhou, or even going south to conquer Hedong.
Qin Wutong, who has been in Daizhou for many years and once served as governor of Shuozhou, is different. He knows very well that if he just defends Yanmen Pass, Shuozhou will definitely be lost even if it can survive longer.
Without Mayi, the Turks can roam Shuozhou as they did a few years ago. Without Mayi, the Turks can take advantage of Mayi and attack Yanmen Pass at any time.
More importantly, if you refuse to send troops, the morale and cohesion of the army will drop significantly. Who among the Daizhou army doesn't know why Li Huairen and Li Yaoshi are incompatible?
The room gradually became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Li Daoxuan.
After a moment, Li Daoxuan stood up, chuckled a few times, and personally picked up the big man who was prostrate on the ground, "Are you Dugu De?"
"yes."
"Huairen once mentioned you to Gu. You were under the command of Duke Lu. The battle at Yunzhou was the second time you cut off Jieli Khan's flagpole." Li Daoxuan joined hands and said, "When I was leaving alone, King Si of Wei I broke the willows at Baqiao to see him off, and said personally that the Turks were defeated, and ten generals with meritorious deeds were elected to the capital for an audience, so that they could parade through the streets to praise their merits."
Xue Wanjun glanced at Pang Yu, whose face was ashen, smiled bitterly in his heart, and took two steps forward, "I am willing to listen to His Highness's instructions."
All the generals behind him saluted, "I am willing to listen to His Highness's instructions."
With everyone's attitude here, Xue Wanjun has no other choice. He can only say that the old man Pang Yu is too ignorant.
