Great Sui Dynasty

Yang Hao's letter came not too late. The war against the Turks was over, but the results still needed to be digested. Li Shimin would not be able to deal with Qin Shubao for a while, and Qin Shubao also took advantage of this time to familiarize himself with the terrain. They fought here, and the ambush results that night were not small, they got thousands of horses, and they are reorganizing a group of infantry into cavalry. In this way, he has five thousand horses in his hands, and the structure of the army tends to be reasonable. Among the 5 horses There are [-] cavalry, [-] archers, and [-] infantry, and they can cooperate perfectly in both offense and defense.

There were two letters from Yang Hao, one was written to Qin Shubao, telling him to pay attention to Li Shimin and take precautions. In fact, even if Yang Hao didn't come to this letter, Qin Shubao had already taken precautions, and camped ten miles away from Li Shimin's army. , if Li Shimin wants to launch a sudden attack, there is still time to make arrangements.The second letter was for Changsun Wuji. The letter he asked him to bring before sending out troops had not been given to Zhangsun Wuji in time. It seemed that now was the time.

"Come here, take this general's post and ask Changsun Wuji to come and talk about it! Just tell me that Miss Changsun has something for him to hand over to him." Qin Shubao directly sent someone to invite Changsun Wuji, under the banner of Changsun Wugou , I don't believe that Changsun Wuji won't come, this is Qin Shubao's clever move to clearly separate you, but you have to come.

Li Shimin's camp is also quite lively. After all, it is unimaginable that a mere [-] mob troops can defeat nearly [-] Turkic cavalry, but they did it. Of course, there are many factors in it, but their bravery is undeniable of.

"The third brother deserves the greatest credit this time. If it wasn't for the third brother who led the troops, we might not have been able to defeat Jieli, and maybe we would have been wiped out by the Turks." Li Shimin said suddenly. The third brother he was talking about was Li Xiaogong, Li Xiaogong and him are of the same clan, and Li Xiaogong is the third eldest in the family, so Li Shimin calls him the third brother.

As soon as Li Shimin said this, everyone suddenly fell silent, Hou Junji and Yu Chigong looked at Li Xiaogong with strange eyes, of course Li Xiaogong saw all of these.

"Shimin was joking, I'm just icing on the cake. If it weren't for you generals who are brave, even if I lead troops here, it would be useless, let alone Shimin, you are planning strategies." Li Xiaogong is not stupid, he knows the little calculations Li Shimin made Yes, but this is too obvious. It is not good to directly push him to the opposite of the soldiers.Although he is also a member of the Li family, he has not been reused until the Turkic invasion, and the Li family could not send anyone to lead the troops to garrison Pingliang. Therefore, he does not like Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng very much, but is more optimistic about Li Shimin.Moreover, the strength in Li Shimin's hands can also compete with Li Yuan, but he lacks a place as a base. Now that Li Shimin has repelled the Turks, the northern part of Guanlong is under his control. When he was young, he also wanted to send charcoal in the snow.

"What the third brother said is true, but everyone sees the credit for the third brother. I will definitely report it to my father to ask for the credit for the third brother." Li Shimin smiled more warmly, and it can be seen that Li Xiaogong is not the kind of person who takes credit for himself. This kind of person will not succumb to a small favor, so as long as he falls to himself, he will basically not commit any betrayal.

"What's the third brother's plan next? Should he go back to Daxing to report on his work or... the northern part of Guanlong has been dilapidated by the Turks, and it's the time when there is a shortage of manpower. If the third brother is not in a hurry to go back, he will help Shimin. These places are in urgent need of governance." Li Shimin's invitation was very direct.

"Okay, it just so happens that the Turks have also retreated, and there is no need for so many troops to station in Pingliang, so I will stay and contribute." Li Xiaogong was happy to do both the icing on the cake and the charcoal in the snow, otherwise he would return to being an idler when he returned. Officials.

"My son, there is a person outside who claims to be sent by Qin Qiong and wants to meet the grandson." Just when Li Shimin was happy to accept Li Xiaogong, the guard came to report.

"Let him in!" Although Li Shimin was suspicious that the person who came was looking for Changsun Wuji instead of him, he wanted to see what tricks Qin Qiong was playing.

"Master Changsun, my general said that Ms. Changsun has something that I want to hand over to you, and I hope you will come with me!" The visitor said directly to Changsun Wuji after entering the account.

It's just that when he said this, everyone's eyes were on Changsun Wuji, and they were all guessing how Changsun Wuji hooked up with Qin Qiong?Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin guessed immediately, but Changsun Wuji couldn't explain it. Li Shimin also knew that Changsun Wuji would not betray him, because Changsun Wuji was always with him, but after all, Changsun Wugou was in Yangzhou. On the other side, it is hard to guarantee what Changsun Wuji has in mind.

"Let's go and have a look at the auxiliary machine!" Li Shimin said when Changsun Wuji didn't know whether to answer, but Changsun Wuji knew that Li Shimin might no longer have such trust in him in his heart. Thinking that he is no longer Li Shimin's confidant.But he can't blame Li Shimin, because his estrangement scheme is too poisonous, it obviously tricked you but he was unable to crack it.

"Okay, lead the way ahead." It's useless to talk too much, and others won't listen to his explanation, let alone he didn't need to explain at all, he bowed his hand to everyone and left with everyone.

"Shimin..." Liu Wenjing wanted to say something when she saw this scene, but she immediately closed her mouth when she saw Li Shimin's gloomy face.

"Master Changsun is here, please sit down!" Seeing Changsun Wuji coming, Qin Shubao immediately put down what he was doing.

"The general is easy to calculate, Wuji was victimized by the general this time!" Changsun Wuji said with a wry smile.

"Why did the general say that? My sister asked me to send a letter to my lord." Qin Shubao pretended not to understand what Changsun Wuji said, and took out two letters from the case, and handed the letter written by Changsun Wugou to him. To grandson Wuji.

"Little sister is stubborn, thanks to King Qi, otherwise I don't know what will happen." Changsun Wuji read his sister's letter to him. Of course, he also wrote about the development of Qingzhou in all aspects, and praised Yang Hao sparingly, saying that Yang Hao is a wise man who has never been seen before or since. Who should avoid it? Seeing how well my sister praised Yang Hao, I knew that the subtext was to let myself break a tree and live on it.

"Speaking of which, when I was about to get married, it was thanks to your sister's help. You don't have to worry about it. The prince treated your sister very well. If your eldest grandson is worried, you can go to Qingzhou to visit." Qin Shubao hinted half-clearly. The prince intends to solicit, and the relationship between his sister and the prince will not be worse than it is now.At the same time, another letter written by Yang Hao to Changsun Wuji was handed over.

"Wuji's heart is won by the prince. It's just that the people of the world extended a helping hand when Wuji was at his worst. If I leave, I'm afraid even my own conscience will not feel good." Changsun Wuji wrote to him after reading Yang Hao's letter After that, he let out a long sigh, which seemed to mean that the encounter was not at the right time.In the letter, Yang Hao spoke earnestly and analyzed that the Li family had no chance at all. He could learn about his talent from his eldest grandson Wugou, but now he is unknown with Li Shimin, so he couldn't help feeling sorry for it.

"Since that's the case, it's a pity. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you in the future!" Qin Shubao also felt a little regretful, but it can be expected that Changsun Wuji's life under Li Shimin will not be easy in the future.

"If there is nothing to do, then Wuji will leave first!" Knowing the other party's plan and also knowing about his sister, Changsun Wuji felt that there was no need to stay here, although going back to Li Shimin's place would not be the same as before, But at least Li Shimin was kind to him. Before Li Shimin let him go, he would not be that good bird that broke a tree and perched on it.

"Well, since the eldest grandson is going to leave, I will not keep you here. Come and send the eldest grandson back!" Qin Shubao didn't want to keep him, he had already passed the word, and the choice of the eldest grandson Wuji was not up to him. .

"Oh, by the way, the general should leave earlier!" Changsun Wuji was about to step out of the big tent but stopped, said such a word without beginning and end, and left resolutely.Of course, with Qin Shubao's IQ, how could he not understand, it seems that Li Shimin is about to do it.
