Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 565 Huairen (continued)
"Please help me with your step."

Zhang Zhongjian saluted Wang Junhao solemnly, and the latter nodded sharply, "You bring thirty personal guards, all of whom have been with you for many years."

Zhang Zhongjian heaved a sigh of relief as he repeatedly thanked Wang Junhao for watching him go to deploy manpower, while Xi Duo at the side smiled wryly and said, "Obviously we have made preparations, no wonder His Highness reprimanded you."

The expression on Zhang Zhongjian's face was even more bitter, "But if you don't report to Your Highness personally, how dare you feel at ease..."

"Yes." Xi Duo sighed, "But after this incident, His Highness can feel a little more at ease."

Inside the tent, Wen Yanbo was about to speak, when there was a loud cheering sound from outside, the neighing and trampling sounds of war horses continued, Wang Junhao's figure appeared at the tent door, silently gestured to Li Shan.

Li Shan waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's really cute."

Wen Yanbo's mind is delicate, and seeing Li Shan's tactics during this period, he quickly saw through the scene just now... It was just a mutual play.

The mob gathered to make trouble, and some even fled despite strict orders. Liu Shirang personally led the army to station ten miles away, but Zhang Zhongjian, who had [-] cavalry under his command, should be responsible for suppressing the people.

But Zhang Zhongjian didn't dare to do anything, so he came to ask Li Shan for instructions at the first time. There were no more than two reasons. One was that it was too taboo to use military power at night, and Zhang Zhongjian was still Yuan Junzhang's former department. He is not too much.

The second reason is that most of Zhang Zhongjian's cavalry had followed Yuan Junzhang to attack Hedong several times... To put it bluntly, many of the [-] serfs were captured by them. Lack of confidence.

Therefore, Zhang Zhongjian came to ask for instructions, and Li Shan replaced him with a seemingly indignant attitude.

Thinking of this, Wen Yanbo said with a smile: "It's not a bad thing."

Li Shan nodded in agreement, no matter what the reason was, it could only prove that Zhang Zhongjian was consciously approaching and even integrating into the Tang army, which was naturally not a bad thing.

Although there were people making trouble, Li Shan didn't take such small things to heart, not to mention Liu Shirang, Zhang Zhongjian, and the famous generals Zhang Shigui and Su Dingfang in the early Tang Dynasty were around. He looked at the people behind Wen Yanbo with great interest, "This is Is it the nephew of Duke Yanbo?"

Wen Yanbo was startled, and smiled wryly in his heart. It seemed that Li Shan didn't care about things, but in fact, as long as there was valuable information, he couldn't escape his eyes.

"The second son of the third brother, he is the fourth in this generation."

"It turns out to be the Empress of Duke Qinghe." Li Shan was also a little surprised, nodded after hesitation and said, "When uncle and nephew reunite, Lord Yanbo will be the master."

Although it is said that escape is not allowed, and once captured, he will be beheaded immediately, but the only remaining heir of Duke Wen of Qinghe County, the descendants of the Wen family in Taiyuan... Although Li Shan feels a little uncomfortable, it is not incomprehensible. After all, in this era, what people say Equality is bullshit.

"It's not for this reason." Wen Yanbo hesitated for a while, then turned his head and said, "Shiro speak for himself."

"Greetings to the King of Handan." Wen Bang stepped forward to salute, "In the third year of Xiawude, he was taken captive to Wuyuan County as a slave. It is expected that it will be difficult to return to his hometown in this life. Thank you Your Highness in advance."

Li Shan nodded slightly, but did not open his mouth... Although Li Shan was expecting and leading the exchange of [-] serfs, from an objective point of view, this was a blow to Jieli Khan, and it was an attempt to continue to stir up Turkic civil strife .

"In the fourth year of Wude... I married a wife and had a son the next year." Wen Bang said dryly.

"Can you get married in Wuyuan County?" Li Shan was a little surprised. "I heard that in December last year, nearly a thousand elderly Han people and children were deported and died of hunger and cold."

"Of course we can't get married, but the wedding will be held in private." Wen Bang's eyes were bright, he was driven here this time, separated from his wife and children..."

"Among 3 people?"

"I don't know." Wen Bang lowered his head.

Li Shan thought for a while, then asked softly, "A child of the He family?"

"Country girl."

After a moment of silence, Li Shan smiled and said: "You are a son of a famous family. You are willing to take strange risks to spy on the enemy. Now that you are lucky enough to return to your homeland, you will be able to become an official. You can choose a noble daughter from a famous family. You can marry a wife and have children, and you will be happy..."

"What do Mr. Yan Bo think?"

Before Wen Yanbo opened his mouth, Wen Bang burst into anger, raised his head and said: "Although there is no marriage certificate, but he is my wife, he abandoned his wife and children, is it the husband's doing?!"

"There is love and righteousness, and there is righteousness in love." Li Shan's expression remained motionless, and he smiled: "If you are among the 3 people, it's fine. If you're not there, I'm afraid it's hard to find... But why does Gu help you?"

"Just because you are a descendant of the Wen family in Taiyuan, and because you have a servant of the official residence Zhongshu, who is the uncle of Duke Xihe?"

"Huai Ren!" Wen Yanbo frowned tightly, "This kind of thing is just a matter of little effort..."

Li Shan made a stop gesture, "Mr. Yan Bo, do you mean to let Gu use military and state affairs as a favoritism?"

Wen Yanbo's chest was tight at these words. In his opinion, it was just a trivial matter to bring out a woman with a child from Wuyuan County with Tuli Khan who was about to sign the covenant.

"It's easy to do, easy to do..." Li Shan looked at Wen Bang with interest, "In the final analysis, what can you do for Gu?"

Wen Bang took a deep breath, "His Royal Highness built a stronghold here for the purpose of forming a corner with Mayi and Yanmen to resist the Turks, protect Youshuo and Daizhou. A certain person is good at arithmetic and has taken care of general affairs. He is willing to stay here to serve Your Highness works!"

"Even if you have the ability to steer the world, you will never be able to take on heavy responsibilities. What can one person do?" Li Shan shook his head slightly, "What's more, Duke Yanbo won't agree, right?"

Wen Yanbo's face darkened completely, and he said in a low voice, "Huiren is very calculating!"

"Hahaha, I know I can't hide it from Lord Yan Bo." Li Shan laughed loudly, just happened to see Zhang Shigui striding forward, and beckoned, "Brother Wu An, is there enough manpower?"

"The King of Handan sent his personal guards to assist him, and he also dispatched men from Mayi, but it was not enough." Zhang Shigui replied briefly, and then said: "Just then the scouts reported that hundreds of Turkic cavalry went south from Yunzhou and stayed in Yunzhou. , at the border of Shuozhou."

Li Shan and Wen Yanbo looked at each other, knowing that the Lord had finally arrived.

"Departure tomorrow." Li Shan didn't seem to hear, and said directly: "Su Dingfang and Lord Yanbo will leave with Gu... As for the shortage of manpower, then we must ask Lord Yanbo for help."

Wen Yanbo took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Don't worry Wu'an, I've sent a letter, the Wen family will gather the disciples, and then select disciples and retainers from all the clans in Bingzhou, and they will arrive within three days."

Zhang Shigui heaved a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Duke Xihe."

Although Wen Bang didn't know what was going on, he could only tell from the smile on Li Shan's face and the slightest bit of anger in his uncle's expression that his uncle might have been tricked.

Zhang Shigui never asked Wen Yanbo and Li Shan why they left when the Turks suddenly arrived, nor did they ask where they were going. Looking at Yunzhou in the north and the grassland in the west, it should be given a new name."

Wen Yanbo said coldly: "Huairen is determined to build a village here, with grand plans in mind, why not name it after Huairen."

Uh, of course Wen Yanbo didn't know that a few hundred years later, not far from the junction of Yunzhou and Shuozhou, there was indeed a small town named "Huiren".
