"Zhang Xutuo wants to fight!"
“But Mr. Yang’s treasure house can’t just give up!”
"Commander Shen, I order you to lead one hundred of my guards and secretly go to Chang'an! Do everything possible to seize Duke Yang's treasure house!"
"Even if you can't take it away, you have to find a way to get a piece of it!"
Li Mi issued the final order.
In response, Shen Luoyan could only accept the order with a wry smile.
"Luoyan obeys the order!"
Compared to this kind of thing, what she actually longs for more is fighting on the battlefield.
Because of her childhood experiences, she wanted to prove one thing in particular: Who says women are inferior to men?
And if you want to prove this, achieving results on the most violent, cruel, direct, and glorious battlefield is undoubtedly the best way to prove it.
She will soon have a battle with the famous Sui Dynasty general Zhang Xutuo. If she can achieve results in the next battle, it will not only prove that women may not be inferior to men, but at least she will also prove herself!
But at this juncture, Li Mi transferred her away with one word.
It is impossible to say that there is no resentment in her heart, but what can she do?
End of the meeting.
Shen Luoyan said goodbye gloomily and left.
Xu Shiji chased after him.
"Are you OK?"
He is Shen Luoyan's fiancé. He followed Shen Luoyan to Li Mi. Now he is also one of Li Mi's military advisors.
As the closest person to Shen Luoyan...well, barely, at least compared to other people, the relationship between the two of them is relatively close.
Xu Shiji naturally knew Shen Luoyan's ambition, but he himself might not agree with Shen Luoyan's ambition.
"I'm fine."
Shen Luoyan adjusted himself and said quickly and calmly.
"I'm going to Chang'an, and I'll leave it to you for Mi Gong. We're about to deal with Zhang Xutuo. Zhang Xutuo focuses on stability, and he pays attention to stability when marching and fighting."
"If you want to deal with him, if you have absolute strength, you just need to fight him steadily, but we obviously don't have such power here."
"Zhang Xutuo led one of the last elite armies of the Sui Dynasty, and we here can't even control the power of Wagang Village itself. The only thing we can fully control is the thousands of personal guards under Mi Gong. .”
"In such a situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, if we want to defeat Zhang Xutuo, we must use strange moves! In an incredible way, we can severely damage Zhang Xutuo's army!"
"We have discussed this many times before, as long as we follow this...that..."
She kept talking and quickly repeated the plan they had discussed before.
Finally, I asked Xu Shiji again, did you understand?
Xu Shiji opened his mouth and wanted to say that although you are indeed very smart, I am not bad either!
As one of the most capable people under Li Mi, and even one of the strong contenders for chief military advisor, do you think he rose to power by flattering others?
But in the end, looking at that gorgeous face, he still didn't say anything.
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
In fact, when he followed him out, he originally wanted to explain it to Shen Luoyan tactfully.
The reason why you were sent to Chang'an was not because Li Mi wanted to get Yang Gong's treasury, but because you were too strong in front of them!
As a hero with the ambition to conquer thousands of miles, Li Mi is naturally not a person without tolerance. From the fact that he can promote a woman like Shen Luoyan to become his military advisor, it can be seen that he is not small-minded.
But this does not mean that Li Mi is willing to obey Shen Luoyan everywhere!
You can make suggestions, but you can't make your own decisions. That's a pass.
Shen Luoyan's previous behavior was beyond this limit.
At this time, Li Mi forcibly allocated part of his strength and transferred it to Chang'an, just to beat Shen Luoyan so that he would know what is primary and what is secondary.
Shen Luoyan was confused by the authorities, or the upcoming battlefield achievements were lost instantly, so she could not think of this in her heart.
But Xu Shiji, who had always been on the outside, could see clearly.
This can be seen clearly from the fact that Li Mi only assigned one hundred personal guards to Shen Luoyan.
Although the personal guards around Li Mi are pretty good, they still want to play a role in the upcoming battle for Yang Gong’s treasure house...
It's not that Xu Shiji looked down upon these one hundred personal guards, but that he knew too well the value of Duke Yang's treasury - it was a staggering wealth that even the four great lords would covet!
Apart from anything else, Chang'an City is the territory of the Dugu Clan and the Yuwen Clan!
(PS: According to historical records, Chang'an City should still be called Daxing City at this time. It was renamed Chang'an after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. "Chang'an" is written in "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". For the convenience of everyone's understanding, let's call it Chang'an in the future! )
Even because of the geographical location, the Li Clan also has a lot of power in Chang'an City, if coupled with the declining but still surviving Yang Guang and other forces.
If Li Mi's one hundred personal guards were put in, there wouldn't even be a splash.
Even if you want to be a troublemaker who disrupts the situation, this kind of power is completely insufficient!
Li Mi distributed such power because he was about to face Zhang Xutuo and had to retain his power, but there is no need to explain the underlying reasons.
'No matter! If this can make Luo Yan realize the reality, this might not be a bad thing! '
Xu Shiji, who was supposed to remind Shen Luoyan, extinguished his thoughts after Shen Luoyan's lecture.
He knew the ideals and ambitions in Shen Luoyan's heart, as well as the talents and abilities Shen Luoyan possessed, and even took the initiative to follow Shen Luoyan and join Li Mi's army.
But this does not mean that Xu Shiji supports Shen Luoyan's ideals. In fact, he is a quite traditional man, and he himself does not want Shen Luoyan to be exposed too much.
If possible, Shen Luoyan would stay at home and take care of her husband and children for the rest of her life, which would be the best in his eyes.
But helplessly, Shen Luoyan's own character is too strong, even stronger than him!
In front of Shen Luoyan, Xu Shiji was often unable to describe his thoughts properly, and what he showed was naturally led by Shen Luoyan.
Xu Shiji had never been able to solve this problem before, but now... maybe this incident can set Shen Luoyan back, allowing her to recognize herself and become the person he wants her to be!
Shen Luoyan didn't know the thoughts in Xu Shiji's mind, but she could understand some of the thoughts in the other person's mind.
Xu Shiji thought he had hidden it deeply enough, but women are more careful, and some inadvertent actions will make them realize what the man in front of them is thinking.
Shen Luoyan knew from a long time ago that this man who seemed willing to follow him to follow Li Mi and pursue his dreams was actually a male chauvinist!
Just like her father...
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Shen Luoyan behaves particularly strongly and wants to prove himself!
Just like this time.
Shen Luoyan knew that the power of these one hundred personal guards was nothing in the Chang'an City that was about to be turbulent, but her fighting spirit was still high in her heart.
"Wait! I will give you a big surprise!"
In this martial arts world, she does not deny that powerful force can achieve more results, but wisdom can also become a decisive force!
Next, she will use her wisdom to prove herself to the whole world!
······
Chang'an City.
This extremely prosperous capital city is bustling with traffic and people coming and going.
Although it is no longer the imperial capital of the Sui Dynasty because Yang Guang moved the capital to Luoyang, it is still one of the most prosperous cities in the world! Not even one!
Although Luoyang is the current capital of the Sui Dynasty, due to Yang Guang's subsequent series of operations, Luoyang City, the new capital city, may not be as prosperous as the old capital city of Chang'an City.
In addition, due to the influence of the rebels, Yang Guang, who was blocked from the road ahead and went on patrol, could not even return to his capital of Luoyang and could only stay in the old capital of Chang'an City.
Nowadays, many orders from the imperial court are issued from Chang'an City. It is no exaggeration to say that Chang'an City is the center of the world.
This already extremely prosperous and bustling city has become even more lively recently due to the news about Yang Gong's treasure house.
You can see a large number of people pouring in every day. Although some of them have made various disguises, they are still recognized by some caring people.
"Eight gangs and ten guilds, various rebel armies, and those aristocratic families, almost everyone who can come is here! The attraction of this Duke Yang's treasury is indeed extraordinary!"
Sitting by the window on the third floor of the hotel, Li Shimin looked at the strangers coming and going below and couldn't help but sigh.
Opposite him was a beautiful girl who seemed young but already showed her charm. This person was none other than Li Clan's little princess - Li Xiuning.
But I heard Li Xiuning say: "That's not all! I heard that the forces in the grassland and even overseas have been alerted and are currently rushing here. It's just that they haven't arrived yet because of the long distance."
"oh?"
Li Shimin looked surprised. He really didn't know this news.
Although he has secretly established his own power and has his own intelligence network, because he is not the legitimate son, he does not have much resources within the clan, and it is still limited to Chang'an and Taiyuan (Li clan's hometown).
With his current ability, he could not obtain information on a larger scale as quickly as possible.
Li Xiuning was different. Due to her engagement with the Chai family, she had her own small treasury early on. Even Li Shimin had to 'borrow' money from her from time to time.
What's more, even though she is young, she is good at dancing and well-rounded. She has socialized with many women in the world - such as the women's family members of the Dugu Clan, the women's family members of the Yuwen Clan, the women's family members of Wang Shichong, and even Shang Xiuxun of Pegasus Ranch. It all matters!
But don't underestimate these things. Men are often the least defensive when they are around their women. Sometimes, even he himself doesn't know what was said.
What Li Xiuning is best at is chatting with these women and inadvertently finding out relevant information.
A lot of exclusive information fell into her ears unknowingly. After being analyzed by her, it became hers.
Many people say that if Li Xiuning were a man, he might not be able to compete for the Tang Dynasty.
Although this sentence may be a bit exaggerated, it is not difficult to see from it that Li Xiuning is definitely a very capable person!
At least now, Li Shimin can barely keep up with his elder brother with the help of Li Xiuning.
"It seems that Chang'an City is really about to experience a huge turmoil!"
Li Shimin frowned slightly.
Naturally, he frowned not because he was worried about the ensuing turmoil, but because he was worried that he or the Li family would not be able to obtain enough benefits from the ensuing turmoil!
Although due to geographical reasons, the Taiyuan occupied by his Li family is not too far from Chang'an City, so they are considered to have some influence in Chang'an City.
But compared to the power of the Yuwen Clan and the Dugu Clan, their power is somewhat insignificant.
More importantly, such a small amount of power was divided into three parts - his part, his eldest brother's part, and his father's part.
The latter two parts may still be combined, but his part...
Li Shimin took a deep breath. At this moment, he deeply realized how difficult it was for him to succeed.
A strong enough force must be established!
Otherwise, whatever he wants to do in the future will pale in comparison to what it is today.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin's desire for Yang Gong's treasure house became even stronger.
If he wants to establish his power, he cannot do without spending a large amount of money. Now the only opportunity that can bring him a large amount of wealth is the Yanggong treasury in front of him!
"Xiu Ning, I heard that nobles from all the major aristocratic families have recently re-checked the mansion left by Yang Su. Did they find anything?"
The aristocratic family members are not fools, on the contrary, they are far smarter than ordinary people!
As early as after Yang Su's death, they divided up the real estate left behind by him, and launched an almost groundbreaking search of these places, hoping to find the whereabouts of the legendary Yang Gong's treasure house. .
It's a pity that they have been working hard for who knows how long, but they still haven't got any clues.
"No."
Li Xiuning shook his head.
"I have inquired secretly. So far, no one has found any clues in Mr. Yang's old mansion. Maybe someone is hiding here, but I think this is unlikely!"
"It is said that in order to protect the safety of his inherited treasure house, Yang Su specially asked Lu Miaozi, the most skilled craftsman in the world, to take action!"
"With Lu Miaozi's ability to create secret chambers, I'm afraid that even if this treasure house is right in front of us, we may not be able to discover it!"
"Lu Miaozi, I heard that he has retreated from the world for thirty years. Now it is unknown whether he is alive or dead. Otherwise, if we can find him, maybe we can take the lead and directly capture Yang Gong's treasure house. !”
Li Shimin shook his head slightly, feeling very sorry.
After a slight pause, he asked another very important question.
"Xiuning, are the people who spread the news whereabouts?"
"No."
"No?"
Li Shimin was shocked.
How could it not be? !
