The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 371 Li Ji's Ups and Downs (for Subscription)
HD.

Since the beginning of the Warring States period, it has had the reputation of being the richest city in the world and the famous capital of the world.

In the endless southern Hebei Plain, nearly ten thousand Xiongnu war horses roamed about in such a majestic way, bowing their heads from time to time to eat some tender grass that just grew in early spring.

The surrounding Huns cavalry patrolled the group of horses pulled out for a walk from time to time, seeming to be on guard, but there was not much defensiveness on their faces.

Since they went south and entered the border of the Han people, everything along the way has been smooth and smooth.Not only did they plunder many rare utensils that were not found in the desert, but they also enjoyed the Central Plains delicacies that the Han people would know.

Although there was a fight with the Han army not long ago, but only eight thousand horses were dispatched, and the Han army was repelled back to the camp.

Since that battle, the Han army has been hiding in the camp at the foot of the mountain in the west, and they dare not fight at all.And the delicious grass around HD has become a delicious meal for the Xiongnu war horses after dinner.

The Xiongnu horse, which has survived the winter without much fat, not only gradually gained weight, but also became restless emotionally.

The Huns who let the horses know very well that these horses are in estrus.

That's why they need to pull out the war horses to relax, otherwise they will be kept in the camp blindly, and the irritable Hun horses may not be allowed to ride.

As for finding a mare nearby for emergency, the Huns were not very willing.

After all, the blood of war horses is as important as the blood of human families. In other words, the Huns really look down on those ordinary mares of big men.

Anyway, the estrus period of horses is intermittent and lasts for several months.Such a long time is enough for them to wreak havoc in Dahan before returning to the Northland.

The Huns were very comfortable with their horses, but some people were very uncomfortable in the camp of the Han army more than ten miles away.

Li sent!

As the commander in charge of attacking zhao on the north road at the moment, the pressure on Li Ji's shoulders was not ordinary.

For one thing, Li Ji at this time is not as young and strong as he was when Zhulu was killed in the past. He led the army at sixty years of age, and many times he had more energy than energy.

Second, Li Ji was the core hero who killed Lu in the past, but he was not completely voluntary to help, but was coerced by Zhou Bo and others, and had to trick his friend Lu Lu into surrendering military power.Although it is said that he has the merits of Conglong who helped Emperor Wen succeed to the throne, the practice of "selling friends" has actually been tainted by people.

The last point, however, is also the most important.

Li Ji was old, so he didn't need to take this muddy water trip, and Chang'an was not without anyone who was competent to lead the way.But because of a woman, Li Ji needed enough meritorious service to propose to the emperor.

That elderly woman with extraordinary status is the mother-in-law of Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty, the mother of the imperial concubine Wang Zhi, and the grandmother of the future Emperor Wu Liu Che.

Zang'er!

When this twilight love began, no one knows.

But Li Ji, such a bad old man, actually wanted to be the father-in-law of the emperor, which was a bold precedent.But the old man is working hard for this, thinking hard all day about the strategy to defeat the enemy, his gray hair is almost gone.

Staring at the map in front of him, Li Ji's eyes gradually locked on the middle reaches of the Yellow River.

If so, if there is no other way.

The old man can only be a sinner through the ages once, digging rivers and flooding cities.

"In June, there is still a [-]-day deadline."

"Before summer, if you can't conquer HD, this old man can only resort to risky moves."

For a while, Li Ji seemed to recall the past 40 years ago.Zhou Bo threatened his father's life, forcing him to make a choice he didn't want to but had to make.

Back then to save his father, today it is only for Zang'er.

The old man has been infamous for thousands of years, and he is not afraid to add the crime of flooding HD and burying 10 people.

Thinking of this, the old man, whose eyes were already red, secretly made a decision in his heart.

Although this determination is not so easy for him.

But just when he made up his mind, footsteps suddenly approached outside the big tent, and then a person opened the curtain and walked quickly: "General, our army has a good way to defeat the enemy."

The guy who walked in was in a hurry, and what he said was even more thoughtless.

Li Ji frowned and was about to reprimand him, but when he turned around and saw that it was Jin Qiang, he couldn't help lowering his tone: "Does the Marquis of Fenyang not know the situation of our army? The Huns even dare to let their horses out in front of the camp."

This is Jin Qiang, who is of equal status. Li Ji would definitely not have such a good temper.He would be worrying about how to defeat the enemy, if he really wanted a good recipe, he would have already used it.

Jin Qiang knew that the old general in front of him was disturbed, so he said immediately: "General, you don't know, just now a group of horse merchants from the south came outside the camp, and they brought the good recipe to defeat the enemy."

"Horse dealers? What are they going to do?"

"They came to give us horses."

"Send horses? How many war horses can a mere horse dealer have? Forget it, give them some money and let them go back." Li Ji waved his hand, not interested in horse dealers at all.

But Jin Qiang's next sentence made him suddenly open his eyes: "They are big merchants, and they brought a total of [-] horses."

two thousand?

Hearing this number, Li Ji was also moved, but after thinking about it, he still smiled wryly and shook his head: "A mere two thousand horses may not be enough for you and me to compete with the Huns."

"General, the horses they brought are not war horses, they are all mares."

"Isn't it a war horse? That's not a blind man"

Li Ji originally wanted to curse when he heard the first half of the sentence, but he stopped abruptly when he got to his mouth: "What did you say? You brought nearly three thousand mares? Is this serious?"

"It's absolutely true." Of course Jin Qiang would not joke about this kind of thing, and immediately nodded firmly.

"Quickly, get that big businessman to enter the account."

Li Ji opened his mouth with unexpected joy, then thought of something and immediately added: "No, I'll go with you, let's go see the horses."

After speaking, the two generals left the Chinese army hand in hand.

As soon as I arrived at the front camp, I saw Dumb and Bass waiting aside, and nearly a hundred yellow-maned horses beside them.

"The two are the horse merchants that General Jin mentioned?"

When Li sent to the front camp, he first took a look at the horses that were in good spirits, and then walked towards Ba Yu and Dumb: "I heard that the two of you have brought thousands of mares to our army through hard work and twists and turns?"

"The twists and turns are not to mention, it's just entrusted by others."

Ah-Dai and Ba Yu had discussed it in Lishang. This time, Ah-Dai was the main horse presenter. At this moment, he clasped his fists and stepped forward to answer immediately: "We came quickly, and we only brought more than a hundred horses with us, and there are still more than two thousand horses. To the northwest of Wei County, a large army is still needed to respond, after all, this is already a war zone, and my guards are not enough to protect thousands of horses from approaching."

"If you think carefully, I'll send troops to respond." Li Ji turned his head to Jin Qiang without further delay and said, "This matter is of great importance, and you have to go there yourself."

"Don't worry, leave this to me."

Before Jin Qiang sent the report to Li, he already knew that the lord entrusted them to send the horse, and he had to keep an eye on it no matter whether it was public or private.

Immediately nodding his head in agreement, he turned around and dispatched his generals from the Marquis of Fenyang.
