Horse on the World

Chapter 252 Brothers Reunion

The entry of [-] Yizhou cavalry caused a sensation in Dingzhou City. The people of Dingzhou showed great enthusiasm for such a troop that traveled thousands of miles to Dingzhou to help Dingzhou people fight against the barbarians.Shang Haibo went out of the city to greet him as a member of the Dingzhou Army, while Tang Hu, as Li Qing's personal bodyguard, went out to greet him on behalf of Li Qing.At the gate of Dingzhou City, after a complete set of ceremonies were held, Li Feng and a group of generals followed Shang Haibo Tang Hu to the Marshal's Mansion to meet Li Qing, while the rest of the soldiers entered the city under the arrangement of Feng Guo. The rest of the big camp prepared for them.

"See you, Commander!" Walking into the simple but dignified hall of the Commander's Mansion, Li Feng, dressed in military uniform, led his subordinates to pay homage to Shangguan Li Qing. The generals behind him followed Li Manchu on their knees, and there was a sound of armor colliding in the hall.

"You don't need to be polite, everyone get up!" Li Qing stood up from behind the tiger case, strode towards Li Feng, and stretched out his hand to help him up from the ground. Compared with Luoyang a year ago, Li Qing looked more majestic, with a beard growing on his lips, making him look more mature, standing there casually, but there was an inexplicable pressure faintly radiate out.He had also experienced this kind of power in his grandfather.

"Brother!" After paying homage to Shangguan as a subordinate, the next thing is to meet with family affection and treat him like a brother.

"Well, okay, Li Feng, I'm very happy that you can come to my Dingzhou." Li Qing said with a smile. The younger brother in front of him is very similar to the slightly dandy noble disciple in Luoyang in terms of appearance and behavior. A big change, like his father's appearance with a trace of determination, when he just helped him up, he could clearly feel the layers of calluses on his hands, and at a glance, he knew it was not long ago, it seems that the change of the capital a year ago had a great impact on him The blow was quite big, and the young guy back then was now greatly matured.

"How is Grandpa?" Li Qing asked.

"Grandpa is in good health. He can still drink half a catty of wine and eat a big bowl of rice every meal. When he is interested, he often wields a knife and a gun in front of his children and grandchildren." Li Feng laughed.

Li Qing laughed out loud. To be honest, he and An Guogong Li Huaiyuan had never met a few times, but for this skinny old man, he kept a respect in his heart and imagined him wielding knives and guns in his heart. Look, can that thin body be able to carry a knife and gun from time to time?However, this old man is in good health, which is also good for him. With such a pillar, Li can support the sky.

"When you came, did Grandpa have any orders?" Li Qing asked.

Li Feng respectfully said: "Grandpa didn't say much, but he asked me to follow my elder brother's arrangement after I arrived in Dingzhou. I only obeyed my elder brother's orders, and I should exercise hard. Don't tarnish the name of Li's general."

Li Qing smiled, and Li Huaiyuan had told himself explicitly or secretly that he entrusted Li's future to himself, but did the rest of Li think so?But he couldn't decide.

"Before leaving, Grandpa once said that Dingzhou may be the most difficult time now, so our Li family must give full support. This time, in addition to the 50 Yizhou cavalry who came with me, Grandpa also ordered Uncle Li Yunzhi to dispatch [-] soldiers. Ten thousand taels of silver, order me to bring it to the elder brother for emergency."

Li Qing's face changed slightly, "Grandfather also knows that someone is plotting against me?"

Li Feng nodded and said: "Uncle Li Zonghua heard some news. Grandpa asked me to tell Eldest Brother that this is a trivial matter. The key lies in whether Elder Brother can win the barbarian well. As long as he wins thoroughly, these difficulties will disappear immediately." Li Feng Standing up, he signaled to a general behind him with his eyes, that person stepped out quickly, walked up to Li Qing, held a small box in both hands, and handed it to Li Qing.Li Qing took it, opened it, and there were neat stacks of bank notes inside, which were placed on the table casually. "Grandpa is right. As long as we completely win the victory, all difficulties will disappear. Although Grandpa is separated from Dingzhou by thousands of mountains and rivers, he speaks the truth. Li Feng, you take Yizhou five Thousand Cavalry, Yizhou will be a little nervous in terms of military strength, won't it affect Yizhou's future operations?"

Li Feng said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry, Yizhou has built a large number of bastions in this year, and the officers sent by the elder brother have taught us how to effectively use the bastions. But I have more than enough protection for myself, not to mention, grandpa also said that as long as the big brother is victorious here, no one will dare to attack our Yizhou!"

Li Qing laughed loudly, "Grandpa thinks highly of me, okay, okay, Li Feng, sit down!" Turning around to the tiger case, he watched Li Qing sit down and said, "Li Feng, when you come to Dingzhou, What are you going to do? What are your plans?"

Li Feng said: "Brother, since I have come to Dingzhou, of course I want to go to the battlefield to fight against the barbarians. Our Li family has fought against the barbarians for generations. Li Feng dare not fall behind. Please let me lead my troops to the front line to fight against the barbarians." Barbarians fight."

Li Qing frowned slightly, and said: "Li Feng, the barbarian is fierce and good at fighting, and has excellent riding skills. You first came to Dingzhou, and Yizhou soldiers haven't been in battle for many years. You should take a look first and familiarize yourself with the barbarian's tactics. There are many ways to deal with the barbarian. Let’s talk about some understanding, how do you think?”

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the generals behind Li Feng changed, and there was a hint of hesitation. They obviously felt that Li Qing underestimated the Yizhou cavalry. A trace of gloom flashed in Hai Bo's eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

"Brother, although my Yizhou cavalry has never been on the battlefield with real swords and guns, they are all elites trained by our Li family for many years. Whether it is combat power or equipment, they are firmly in the forefront even in Dachu. The 5000 people brought out are a fluke among the elite soldiers of Yizhou, please give us a chance to make meritorious deeds."

Li Qing said with a smile: "Dingzhou is a land of hundreds of battles. There are many opportunities to make meritorious deeds. Well, let's discuss this matter later. You are tired after traveling thousands of miles to Dingzhou. Let's go to rest today. I will set up a house tonight." Yan, you bring all the disciples of the Li family in this army to come!"

Li Feng stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Since that's the case, I won't bother big brother, I'll take my leave first."

After Li Feng exited the hall, Li Qing turned to Shang Haibo, "Mr. Shang, what do you think?"

Shang Haibo said: "Commander, this matter has both advantages and disadvantages. For the commander, there are joys and worries!"

"How?"

"The advantage is that this batch of Yizhou cavalry is indeed elite. Whether it is equipment or combat power, it is indeed an elite division. As long as they go to the battlefield and fight one or two battles, they can become a large army. In our Dingzhou, the strength of the army is a bit stretched. Today, they can come in handy."

"Worry, this army is Yizhou soldiers, not Dingzhou soldiers. In terms of deployment and utilization, the commander must have more worries, and it is not simply limited to military affairs."

Li Qing tapped on the big case and said: "It is indeed so."

"The generals of this Yizhou cavalry are almost all Li's children. This is completely different from the structure of our Dingzhou soldiers. This structure also determines that they will follow Li's command wholeheartedly. Commander, if you and Li's If the orders conflict, they will definitely obey Mrs. Li."

"From now on, it seems that they respect Li Feng more than they respect the commander in chief. The commander in chief has to worry about all of this," Shang Haibo said.

Li Qing smiled slightly, "I am also a descendant of the Li family. If they dare to disobey my order, I will kill them, and they will have nowhere to complain."

"It is precisely because the commander-in-chief is also a descendant of the Li family that he cannot deal with them at will!" Shang Haibo said. "Behind these disciples of the Li family is the huge and intricate network of the Li family. If the commander-in-chief disposes of them, it will be very bad for the future. Commander, after defeating the barbarians, we will have a peek into the Central Plains, Yizhou It is the current bridgehead, so why not make good use of such a great opportunity. At this time, the commander-in-chief can't offend these people!"

Li Qing frowned and said: "I see that all of these Li's disciples are very arrogant. Although I haven't seen this cavalry yet, I feel a little worried when I see these generals. What's the use of being well trained? They are so excellent, but they are still vulnerable to our Dingzhou soldiers. But seeing Li Feng's appearance, he is full of confidence, but he thinks that barbarians are vulnerable to them."

"That's right!" Shang Haibo said: "Long Xiao Lang Run, even if our elites from Dingzhou meet, we can only say that they are evenly matched. These rookies who have never been on the battlefield may be hard to resist. Commander, my opinion is still the same. It is only by dismantling the Yizhou soldiers and distributing them to various cavalry battalions in Dingzhou, and letting the veterans in the cavalry battalions lead them, that it is possible to grow up as soon as possible."

Li Qing laughed heartily, he understood Shang Haibo's thoughts very well, split up the [-] cavalry soldiers and distributed them to each cavalry battalion, in a short time, the [-] Yizhou soldiers would be swallowed whole by him To be honest, he was also very envious of this group of cavalry. Unlike the Dingzhou soldiers he trained, these Yizhou soldiers were indeed well-trained. In contrast, if it is honed through Dingzhou's training and combat system, it will indeed become a strong division, but will swallowing this cavalry so blatantly cause Li's strong reaction?Li Qing has never met the uncle who controls the entire Yizhou army!

"Let's talk about this matter slowly. From tomorrow onwards, we will arrange for them to visit our barracks to see the training of Changsheng Camp, and then arrange for their generals to go to Wang Qinian's and Lu Dalin's to see the real battlefield." Li Qing said with a smile : "Perhaps they will change their minds a little after seeing the real fight with swords and guns."

Their eyes met and they both laughed.
