Chapter 94 Li Sigong
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Yu Fei replaced the blood-stained armor with ordinary clothes.

The leaders of the Dangxiang small tribe who came spontaneously knelt down on the ground.

"Get up, stop kneeling."

Yu Fei threw the white scarf that wiped the blood to Feng Dao who was at the side, and looked at the party leaders kneeling on the ground.

"Thank you sir."

Everyone got up and stood respectfully, not daring to lift him away to look at Yu Fei.

"It's unforgivable for you to try to fight against Tianwei, but I'm kind-hearted. In addition, you rein in the precipice, so I will forgive you once."

Everyone knelt down again and kowtowed in praise.

"However, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be forgiven. This Commander has given you a mission to call all the tribes near Yanzhou. Each tribe must send out half of the young and strong, led by the successor of the patriarch, to accompany the Commander to conquer the Tuoba Clan. "

Everyone was stunned, and they couldn't continue their praises. An old leader of a small tribe knelt on the ground in embarrassment:
"To my lord Tang, now is the time when the water and grass are at their most fertile. If half of them are lost, there will be not enough people to graze. The cattle and sheep will not be able to eat enough. We will not be able to survive in winter. Please have mercy on me, my lord. .”

After finishing speaking, he kowtowed fiercely, and everyone kneeling on the ground also nodded.

Yu Fei looked at the crowd, with a half-smile at the corner of his mouth, and nodded.

"So that's the case. Since you can't survive the winter, then don't pass it. Take it down and cut it down, and then make all the clansmen slaves. It just so happens that the commander is about to resettle the Zhechong Mansion, and there is a shortage of slaves."

Li Sicun, covered in blood, clasped his fists in agreement.

"Yes."

Then the old man Dangxiang who cried "forgive me" was dragged out of the tent by Li Sicun.

"Who else has any difficulties now? This commander will solve them one by one for you."

Seen by Yu Fei's gaze, all the leaders trembled in fright, and buried their heads on the ground tremblingly, not daring to speak.

On the first day of February, all the tribes around Yanzhou were outside the city of Yanzhou, renewing their allegiance to the Tang Dynasty. There were hundreds of young and strong from each tribe, and more than a hundred people from the few, forming a cavalry army of more than [-] servants , followed Yu Fei to continue to Lingzhou.

And Yu Fei in Yanzhou also left behind nearly [-] Tuntian Mansion soldiers, and re-established nearly [-] Zhechong Mansions. Feng Dao left behind to temporarily handle military affairs, waiting for officials to take over.

When the army came to Lingzhou, the Xiangli clan had already escaped from the Great Wall with their clansmen. The gate of Lingzhou was wide open, and many small tribes were already kneeling outside the city to welcome Yu Fei.

The pastures in Lingzhou are much fatter than in Yanzhou, and there are more tribes living here.

Yu Fei still dealt with Lingzhou according to the affairs of Yanzhou, leaving [-] soldiers in the mansion, re-establishing the Zhechong mansion, and mobilizing a large number of party members.

After Yu Fei finished handling the affairs and the follow-up officials arrived, it was already the beginning of March.

The army that had been repairing for a month in Lingzhou also officially left the fortress. There were not only more than 20 Tang troops, but also nearly [-] party servants and cavalry troops. The number of troops was still close to [-].

The tribes outside the Great Wall are different from the tribes inside the Great Wall. They don't have so much love for the land. After Yu Fei's army left the fortress, most of them fled to the east, and they all concentrated under the command of the largest tribe in the party, the Tuoba clan.

Yu Fei didn't chase after him, and continued to march slowly, and whenever he reached a place with abundant water and grass that could be cultivated, he would drop some government soldiers according to the situation.

Waiting to arrive at Xiazhou, which is the headquarters of Dangxiang and the residence of Tuoba Sigong, the governor of the Dingnan Army.

But here, Yu Fei's troops are less than 15, of which more than 3 are servants, so they can only fight with the wind.

Apart from the destroyed Xifeng tribe and the Pochao tribe with only a few thousand members left, the remaining Dangxiang six tribes and countless small tribes are already waiting for Yu Fei in Xiazhou.

In Xiazhou City, in Dingnan Jiedu's emissary's mansion, Tuoba Sigong is full of white hair, among the party members, there are very few people who can live to his age.

"Shut up."

There was a sound of not-so-big scolding, and the people who were still arguing fell silent in an instant. Even the leaders of most of the departments looked at the old man respectfully.

Tuoba Sigong can be said to be the true founder of Dangxiang. After the defeat of Huang Chao for the first time, when many Jiedu envoys were afraid of Huang Chao's soldiers and dared not go out to fight.

It was this Tuoba Sigong, who was only Xiazhou town general at the time, who fled back to Xiazhou and recruited soldiers, and then wrote a letter to Emperor Xizong alone to beg the thief.

Later, Huang Chao was defeated, and because of his military achievements, he was named the Jiedu Envoy of the Dingnan Army and given the surname Li, so this Jiedu Envoy can also be called Li Sigong.It governs the vast areas of Xia, Sui, You, and Yin prefectures. Based on this, the party members really began to rise, and then slowly invaded the Great Wall.

Although Li Sigong is old, he still has the prestige of a tiger's death, not to mention that he is not dead yet, and his body is extremely strong.

Li Sigong glanced at the crowd and said:

"Dingnan Sizhou was given to me by His Majesty at the beginning, and no one can take it away. Let alone a small country of Qi, even if the Tang Dynasty came back from the dead, we have to ask whether our sword is accurate or not. Anyone who dares to say retreat will be executed."

"Yes."

Everyone bowed to answer with respectful expressions.

"Yin'er, prepare the horse for grandpa, I will go to meet the handsome Yu in person, does he really have the air in the legend?"

A young party member in his twenties, dressed like a Han, turned around and left with a promise.

"You guys are here to rectify the troops and get ready. If the old man's talk fails, then let's fight."

"Order to respect the elder patriarch."

Everyone bowed again to answer.

Yu Fei commanded the army to set up the camp ten miles away from Xiazhou, and was checking the surrounding terrain around the camp. Feng Dao also followed Yu Fei, and reported the military information of the scouts to Yu Fei.

"That is to say, all the party items are now concentrated in Xiazhou?"

Feng Dao nodded and replied:
"Yes, according to the news from the investigation, there are more than 15 soldiers and horses in Xiazhou."

Yu Fei smiled and nodded.

"I can't think of a small party with a population of just over one million, which can have such potential. It's so good, it's the right time to fight it off."

Feng Dao also smiled and nodded in agreement. After several months of tempering, Feng Dao, like a dusty sword, has lost its rust and began to sharpen slowly, able to quickly find out the really useful information from the thousands of threads of information , It is not in vain for Yu Fei to cultivate him.

While the two were talking, a burst of smoke and dust suddenly rose from the gate of Xiazhou City in the distance, and Yu Fei saw the cavalry figure in it with amazing eyesight.

"Come on, someone is coming, let's see what they want to do."

Feng Dao replied respectfully, and returned to the camp with Yu Fei.

Outside the big camp, Li Sigong looked at Yu Fei's big camp, turned his head and began to educate his grandson Li Yiyin, until the camp gate opened, and Yu Fei came out on horseback with a few soldiers, and then stopped talking.

"I already knew that Marshal Yu was young, but I didn't expect him to be so young. He really is a formidable young man."

Everyone in the party nodded in agreement.

"But Yu Ziyang, Marshal Yu is in person."

Yu Fei smiled slightly, and replied in the same way:

"It's the commander in chief, but Li Sigong, Li Jieshuai, is the envoy of the Ministry of Determination?"

"It's the old man."

Yu Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking whether he should kill the old man at this time, but if he is killed here, there is no one in charge of the party, it is easy to fight, but I don't know how much time it will take.

Thinking of this, Yu Fei suppressed the killing intent in his heart, and said with a smile:

"I don't know Li Jieshuai, why did he come here? Is he asking to surrender?"

Li Sigong was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and laughed:

"Yu Shuai is only using his tongue, the old man can no longer care about all kinds of old men, as long as Yu Shuai withdraws, the Lingyan Erzhou will be regarded as a meeting gift for Yu Shuai, otherwise"

Yu Fei laughed and pointed at Li Sigong.

"Otherwise what? Old man, even the land under your feet belongs to the Tang Dynasty. Calling you handsome is to give you face, and you really kicked it?"

Li Sigong got angry and shouted:

"Ignorant junior, when the old man was fighting, I didn't have you. Since you don't know good and bad, don't leave when you come, hum."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Yu Fei, turned around and left.

After Li Sigong and others walked away, Yu Fei put away the rampant expression on his face, smiled, and turned back to the camp.
