Huainan Road is an official road in Chuzhou.
A handsome young man drove a carriage proudly towards Zhaojiacun, Wanghai Township, Yancheng.
There were several majestic men nearby to protect him, and not long after the handsome young man left, he turned around and asked the figure in the carriage.
"Madam, can you bear the bumps on the road?"
"I can bear it. You've asked me this question dozens of times. Can you please stop asking this question?"
The voice came. Anyone familiar with it would definitely recognize that it was Zhang Ping. And who was driving the car if it wasn't Li Dejiang?
Li Dejiang turned his head in embarrassment, but everyone could see the pride on his face.
"Madam, isn't this for your own good? Look at you, you are pregnant. What if there is an accident to the fetus during this long and bumpy journey?"
After hearing what Li Dejiang said, Zhang Ping, who was in the carriage, threw out the remaining core of the fruit in her hand, hitting Li Dejiang in the head.
"Shut up, it's not because of you, it's all your fault."
However, Zhang Ping's coquettish look made Li Dejiang smile proudly, making Zhang Ping want to step forward and tear his mouth apart.
However, seeing that the Li De Prize has not yet taken shape, Zhang Ping finally showed signs of breaking out.
"You have become a county magistrate, and you are still so ignorant? Hurry up and move forward. We are going to visit Yue'er before the end of the year. It would be better for you. You are doing nothing here. You deserve a beating, right? "
"Yes, yes, I was wrong."
Li Dejiang hurriedly nodded here to admit his mistake, and when they were heading towards Zhaojiacun, on the official road, there were two young masters riding war horses and dressed in brocade clothes, also heading towards Yancheng.
After the horses were tired from galloping, the two of them drove the horses to the woods to rest for a while. One of them pulled a water bag from the horse and handed it to the other. The other was not polite, took the water bag and drank a few sips. Throw it to another.
"We should be there soon, right?"
The person who asked the question was Xue Li, and Wang Ergou, who was being questioned, looked at the mountains in the distance.
"It's almost time. Once we cross the mountain in front of us, we will enter Chuzhou. After entering Chuzhou, we can reach Zhaojiacun in one day's journey."
"Yeah?"
When Xue Li heard Wang Ergou say this, he couldn't help but look at a package hanging on his horsehide.
Now they have been assigned new positions by Li Chengqian. They were not assigned any positions in the Anbei Protectorate by Li Chengqian as they thought. Instead, they were assigned to Chuzhou.
This can be regarded as taking care of the two of them, and arranged to work as two small lieutenants in the Salt and Iron Transfer Department to be responsible for the transportation of salt.
Although the work is not heavy, it is still a bit difficult. You have to watch out for all kinds of gangsters along the way, and maybe you can make some new achievements. With the abilities of the two of them, this cannot be wrong.
As the two pairs of troops rushed towards Yancheng, Xu Yunyan's military camp north of Yanmen finally received supplies of food and grass from surrounding counties and border guards.
Of course, this didn't come for nothing, but they made a slogan and took out part of their extra meat to exchange it for a vegetable.
Feng Tao was here counting the vegetables that were delivered, feeling very proud, while the two Li brothers next to him were surrounding him.
"Is it really okay for us to replace meat with so many vegetables? In two months, spring will bloom, and there will be no shortage of food by then."
Feng Tao realized it and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Except for keeping our meat supply for a year, I have replaced everything else with vegetables. What should I do? Wait until I can’t keep these vegetables in spring, why am I so stupid?”
Feng Tao sighed here, looking as if he had done something wrong. However, not long after he sighed here, he saw Xu Yunyan, who was practicing martial arts in the courtyard, walking forward quickly.
"Lord Protector."
Xu Yunyan was practicing martial arts here. Feng Tao looked at him and showed no intention of stopping. Instead, he asked questions here.
"I wonder what Feng Changshi came to see me for?"
Then Feng Tao told Xu Yunyan about his embarrassing situation.
"It doesn't matter. We're not sure whether our food can last for a year. We might as well replace it with vegetables. We can't eat meat every day. We can just use these vegetables to replenish our supplies. Save the soldiers. There is a bird in the mouth, and those who eat meat don’t want to eat meat anymore.”
Xu Yunyan just said something here, and Feng Tao was still looking at him awkwardly. But Feng Tao didn't leave. Xu Yunyan stopped his martial arts practice and looked at him.
"Feng Changshi, am I right?"
Feng Tao looked at Xu Yunyan asking whether what he said was right or wrong, and couldn't help but sigh again.
"The general is right, it's just that in a month or two, spring will bloom."
Although Feng Tao didn't say it clearly, Xu Yunyan understood it, and new vegetables came out when the flowers bloomed in spring.
At this moment, Xu Yunyan was left stroking his chin, "What can I do about it?"
But just when Xu Yunyan was in trouble here, Shi Jin ran over from a distance in a panic.
"Protector, it's a good thing, a great thing."
"What a good thing? Look how excited you are."
Shi Jin kept shouting about good things here, Xu Yunyan was also looking at him here curiously, and Shi Jin said hurriedly.
"The five thousand Anbei Army soldiers assigned by His Majesty have arrived."
"Really? Let the generals discuss matters in the big tent. Although these five thousand men are not enough to fill the vacancies of the Anbei Army, they should be placed under the forehands of each opposing team first.
】
There are only a few of them, but these are the backbone. When people come again in the future, they can easily lead the veterans to become qualified Anbei troops. "
As soon as Xu Yunyan said this, chaos broke out in the camp. Those who came to deliver food and supplies were hastily traded for meat and sent away, and they were informed that they would suspend exchange.
No matter how much more was given to them, there was no need to return it and send it back. This also made this group of people even more grateful to Li Tang. Some of them came with the motivation of doing business. They did not expect that An Beijun was such a countryman. The rich man couldn't help but think here that he must prepare more vegetables next year. When An Beijun exchanges again, he will come to exchange as soon as possible and earn more.
After all, no one has a grudge against money, right?
However, just after An Beijun was settled, Feng Tao once again came to Xu Yunyan with the ledger.
"Duhu, look at how many vegetables we still have. Even if we don't eat meat anymore, if we eat vegetables every day, we won't be able to finish them all after spring begins. And if these vegetables bloom after spring begins, we probably won't be able to keep them, right?"
"No way?"
Xu Yunyan looked at Feng Tao, "These dishes are all dried, can't they be put away?"
"Many of them are not made by dry materials. They are all buried in the snow. But when the snow melts and there is no place to store them, won't they soon be ruined? It's a shameful waste."
Feng Tao actually called Xu Yunyan here, and Xu Yunyan also touched his chin.
"Although our Anbei Army has replenished its personnel, how about we separate two troops and go for a walk on the grassland? Spring is about to begin, and the temperature is not low. Frostbite should not happen again. We just take advantage of this opportunity. We need to hone our troops and horses, and when we encounter those lone Turkic tribes, we can rescue them. After all, they have been assigned to our Anbei Protectorate. We want them to be grateful to us, instead of mentioning that our Tang army is here. We are their enemies."
Xu Yunyan's suggestion was very good, and the brothers Shi Jin and Li on both sides couldn't help but feel happy.
"Then I will ask for orders to lead the troops to the expedition."
When Li Yunlong said this, Li Yunfei interrupted again.
"No, you are the eldest brother, you should let me go on the expedition first."
"Yeah?"
Li Yunfei and Li Yunlong started fighting here.
"Who said that the eldest brother has to give up big pears to his brothers? Since ancient times, it has been said that Kong Rong gave up pears, and Kong Rong was the younger brother. He gave up big pears to his elder brother. As the younger brother, can you also carry forward your style and give this credit first? Give it to me, brother?"
Seeing the two people talking like this, Xu Yunyan sighed.
"We have two men and one of you can command one of them. That's it. What are you fighting for here?"
When Xu Yunyan said this, Shi Jin couldn't help but be surprised.
"General, isn't this appropriate? The two generals are all out. How can we solve the problem if something unexpected happens again?"
Xu Yunyan looked at Shi Jin and smiled.
"My Deputy Protector Shi, have you forgotten the two of us? You are a military commander and I am also a military commander.
Are you still afraid that if there is another war, there will be no general to command the soldiers? "
When Xu Yunyan said this, Shi Jin couldn't help but scratch his head in embarrassment.
"Master Protector, look at me, I actually forgot that I am a general. I hope Master Protector can forgive me."
When Shi Jin said this, Xu Yunyan nodded here.
"It doesn't matter if you forget now, but don't forget your identity as a general when there is a war again. If we forget our identity as a general, how will our soldiers fight bravely under our leadership to kill the enemy?"
After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, he arranged for the two Li brothers to go out and each lead a legion of mythical beasts to gallop across the grassland. But what they didn't know was that they were also aiding the Turkic tribes on the grassland, and even made the Turks move closer to the Great Wall. When they, Li Tang, formed other nomadic tribes that could threaten Li Tang in the northern part of the province, Zhi Shisi Li couldn't help but be furious when he got the news among the countries in the Western Regions.
"Li Tang actually dared to insult my Great Khan like this. Don't think that just because you defeated our great Turks through trickery, you can make us completely surrender.
Now I'm going to show you what kind of price you have to pay for bullying us like this. "
Although Zhishisili was furious here and had nearly 20,000 Turks under his command, he did not attack Li Tang immediately. Instead, he was furious in the tent, waiting for his generals and confidants to persuade him. he.
Sure enough, as Zhi Shisi Li thought, after the suddenly awakened Wang family's bloodline was completely wiped out, these confidants couldn't help but persuade here.
"General, you are now our hope for the Great Turks. Please ask General to succeed you as Khan."
"General, although we are Turkic generals, have we ever won any battles with the Great Khan? Only by following the general can we achieve such success. We follow the general."
"General, now is not the time to be indecisive. The life and death of our great Turks is at stake."
Even though these people kept trying to persuade Zhi Shi Si Li, Zhi Shi Si Li was still trying to push him away.
"I am Jieli Khan's general, how can I take Jieli Khan's position? I want to fight to Chang'an City to rescue Jieli Khan.
After Jieli Khan rescues him, he will be the real Khan of my Turks. "
However, what Zhi Shi Si Li said in his heart was what these generals were saying here.
"General, why are you so stupid? How can a man who has been defeated one after another become the Khan of my Great Turks?"
