Ever since Li Jing defeated the Turkic Jieli Khan and captured Jieli alive and escorted him to Chang'an, he has been stationed on the border.
Under the arrangement of the general, the Tang army drove away or surrendered or captured the Turks on the battlefield. After the Turks showed their willingness to surrender, they were placed along the Northland.
From Dingxiang to Yanmen, there are Turks in the Five Plains of Yunzhong. Although they have been disarmed, there are still a lot of them.
After the Anbei Protectorate was officially opened for business, Xu Yunyan arranged for the two generals Li Yunlong and Li Yunfei to lead the two mythical beast regiments when they were wandering outside. camp.
After Xu Yunyan frightened Xiao Xiao and subdued the Turks, Li Jing finally went to the court to report the incident in the north, and Li Shimin did not disappoint Li Jing. After Li Jing submitted the letter, he immediately asked Li Jing to move back to the court and return to Chang'an to recuperate.
In this battle, Li Jing created another great story, making Jie Li run away with his head covered in confusion after being beaten, and finally came to Chang'an City. When Li Shimin needed to perform, he gave Li Shimin a dance to wish him luck, so that those small foreign countries could see the muscles of the Tang Dynasty.
In the camp of the Anbei Protectorate, Xu Yunyan was bored, holding a book and pretending to read here, while his deputy governor Shi Jin opened the curtain of his tent and got in again, looking at what was happening here. Xu Yunyan and Shi Jin were embarrassed to say anything while reading the book of sages.
Xu Yunyan was just pretending to watch here. When Shi Jin looked anxiously to the left and then to the right, looking at the decorations in the tent, Xu Yunyan quietly took a look at Shi Jin, and then looked at Shi Jin like this Anxiously, he put the book down hastily.
"Deputy Protector Shi, you are so impatient. Did something happen?"
Shi Jin watched Xu Yunyan put down the book. Reversing his anxious look, he approached Xu Yunyan with a playful smile.
"Guardian, it's a nice day today. Shall we go hunting?"
"hunt?"
Xu Yunyan was a little confused.
"Why do you suddenly want to take me out hunting? What's your plan?"
Xu Yunyan pretended to be a weak woman looking at the burly man in fear, but Shi Jin rolled his eyes at him.
"What's the plot? Spring is blooming, and wild cattle, sheep, and horses are everywhere on the grassland. If we don't go out hunting and catch some cattle, sheep, and horses, are we going to let all the cattle, sheep, and horses fall to the ground? This Turk, no, it should be in the hands of the Han family in the North? Don't you think this is a bit of a mistake?"
miser!
Just after Shi Jingang finished speaking, these two words popped up in Xu Yunyan's mind, but when he thought of the cattle, sheep and horses all over the mountains and plains, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but tremble in fear.
Then Xu Yunyan knocked on the table, "It's not impossible to go hunting."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Shi Jin's old face came closer.
"Let me tell you, the general will definitely not let our Anbei army live on dry food every day. He also wants to catch some fresh cattle, sheep and horses to give us a tooth sacrifice."
As soon as Shi Jin finished speaking, Xu Yunyan looked at him strangely.
"What you're saying seems to be very problematic. In the past few months, I felt like vomiting when I ate meat. Why do you want to eat meat again out of character now?"
Shi Jin coughed here.
"Daduhu, you have wronged me. How could a gentleman like me be so picky about what I eat?"
Shi Jin said this quickly, and Feng Tao outside the tent also opened the door curtain and walked in.
"Oh, what a coincidence, both the Protector and the Deputy Protector are here."
When Feng Tao arrived, Shi Jin hurriedly turned serious again, which made Xu Yunyan feel that Shi Jin's change of expression was really fast. However, seeing Feng Tao, their wet nurse from An Beijun, coming, the two of them hurriedly asked.
"I wonder what your lord Changshi is doing?"
Feng Tao hurriedly took out a small notebook from his arms and spoke to the two of them.
"The officers and soldiers commented very well on the meat we dried last year. We don't need to bring too much dry food when we go out on patrol, and the horses don't have much burden.
As long as you find a water source and firewood, you can cook a pot of delicious broth, and the soldiers are amazed by it.
It just so happens that I have consumed a little bit of the dried food. Are you trying to find a way to replenish it? Although we still have enough 10,000 soldiers for half a year, it would be good to reserve a little more in case of accidents. "

As soon as Feng Tao finished speaking, Xu Yunyan and Shi Jin looked at each other.
"Is Feng Changshi also eyeing those ownerless cattle, sheep and horses on the grassland?"
After hearing what Xu Yunyan and Shi Jin said, Feng Tao couldn't help but his eyes lit up and he put the small notebook in his arms.
"Yes! So many cattle, sheep and horses on this grassland will be wasted if they are not eaten? Or should we capture them and make them into rations for our border army in the Northern Territory of the Tang Dynasty? Otherwise, there will be too many cattle and sheep. , some people are prone to trouble when they are full."
When Feng Tao said this, Shi Jin and Xu Yunyan smiled.
"Don't worry, Chang Shi, we'll go hunting now."
Xu Yunyan agreed with Shi Jin's statement after Feng Tao said this, and Shi Jin looked at him seriously here.
"Feng Changshi, you must remember that we are here to make military rations, and we are not going out casually."
Shi Jin's goal was achieved, and Feng Tao showed his hands here.
"What does this mean?"
However, Xu Yunyan and Shi Jin wanted to go out, but Feng Tao did not agree.
"One of you is the Protector and the other is the Deputy Protector. How can you go out at the same time? One of you must stay behind."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yunyan patted Shi Jin on the shoulder and spoke seriously.
"I will leave the responsibility of Deputy Protector Shi to you. Believe me, I have been roaming around the Northland for some time, and I have defeated many Turkic armies. I guess you can rest assured that I will take action, right?"
When Shi Jin heard the shameless Xu Yunyan saying that he should stay here, he hated it when he went out. But Xu Yunyan was right. Among the generals galloping across the north, in addition to Li Yunfei, the two brothers Li Yunlong also Apart from the generals of the Divine Beast Legion, only Xu Yunyan, the Chief Protector of the Anbei Protectorate, was galloping far and wide.
Shi Jin didn't dare to guarantee that he knew more than Zonghengzheng, but Shi Jin looked at Xu Yunyan in boredom.
"Well, since the Protector requests so, then Shi will stay in this military camp honestly. I just don't know how many people the general will take out?"
"It doesn't take much, just one army from the military camp. Which two legions will stay behind this time?"
Xu Yunyan called the four kings and four mallets under his command. Shi Jin and Feng Tao knew this, and Shi Jin said it randomly here.
"Zhai Peng and Li Chun should stay behind. Zhang Xia and Zhao Dong have already gone out to inspect the grassland with the lieutenants."
"Oh, it's them! Then let Zhai Peng take 500 soldiers to go out with me."
Xu Yunyan set the tone of what was going to happen next with one sentence, and Zhai Peng ran over in a hurry after receiving the order, but the expression on his face was very unnatural.
Seeing Zhai Peng's appearance, Xu Yunyan circled around him curiously.
"My General Zhai, what's wrong with you? Aren't you always in high spirits when you went out with me before? Why are you so listless this time?"
As Xu Yunyan said this, he circled around Zhai Peng and smelled his faint fragrance.
"Hey! You changed your last name. When did you start using women's pollen?"
But when Xu Yunyan said this, he couldn't help but clapped his hands when he looked at the neighboring Turkic tents and some simple wooden houses set up by Han people outside the camp of the Anbei Protectorate.
"Did your wife come to see you again?"
Xu Yunyan easily guessed Zhai Peng's current situation, and Zhai Peng nodded here.
"Yes, I made you laugh. My wife arrived yesterday."
"Oh, what's going on?"
Xu Yunyan trailed off in a long voice, "How about you take your wife..."
Just when Xu Yunyan was about to send her back, he suddenly felt that he seemed a little unkind and hurriedly spoke here.
"Then you stay, and I'll ask Li Chun to take someone to accompany me out. This will give you a few days off to spend more time with your wife."
When Zhai Peng heard what Xu Yunyan said, he shook his head hastily.
"General, what's the point? We soldiers are always ready. How can we relax just because our relatives are here? General, please take back your order and let that old boy Li Chun honestly find a wife among the border residents in the North. Son, I have already started a family and started a career, so I can’t delay him.”
"oh?"
When Zhai Peng said this, Xu Yunyan became curious. There is a raging fire in my heart, of course it is the flame of gossip.
"Which girl does Li Chun like?"
After Zhai Peng said this, Xu Yunyan was very curious, and the fire of gossip ignited in his chest. Seeing that if he didn't tell a reason, there would be no good results, and then he carefully pointed at the neighboring tents outside the camp.
"Isn't it true that after we came to station here, the Turks heard that our Tang Army was kind to them, and many new nomadic tribes who had been incorporated into the Tang Army came to express their goodwill? And our General Li Zhen took a fancy to them. There is a little girl in the family, that girl is so pretty, she really doesn’t look like a Turkic person."
Hearing that Zhai Peng was a Turk longer than a Turk here, Xu Yunyan looked a little unnatural.
"General Zhai Zhai, you are a general after all, why are you still here with Turks and Turks? I don't know that these are all us Tang people, they are all my Han family members, and there will be no more Turks in the future."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Zhai Peng hurriedly admitted his mistake.
"Yes, yes, the general taught me that I got carried away. By the way, Li Chun, General Li did not fall in love with the Turks, but I, the Tang Dynasty, fell in love with a girl from the same family, but the girl was very good-looking."
Zhai Peng gestured with his thumb here, and Xu Yunyan looked at Zhai Peng's appearance and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Is it true that the girl Li Chun likes is really beautiful, even more beautiful than your girl?"
Zhai Peng nodded, but Xu Yunyan didn't expect this.
He has met Li Xiaoheng and is very familiar with her. She is really good-looking. But now Zhai Peng's evaluation is that this girl is even prettier than Li Xiaoheng. Is it because you are too lazy or because you think you will become a general? Can you have three wives and four concubines?
However, Xu Yunyan did not emphasize these things to Zhai Peng too much here. Instead, he waved his hand.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. We will go out to do our things first, and then come back to see Li Chun's things after we are done. If possible, we should help him more, but we don't have to solve the major life-long problem. Li Chun is still a bachelor."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Zhai Peng lowered his head, "Yes, yes, I will go and gather the troops."
It's just that Xu Yunyan didn't notice that Zhai Peng had just taken a few steps and muttered there.
"General, you are still a bachelor now!"
