Seeing how these two people had settled such a big matter in just a few words, Guo Cunxin’s face was full of disbelief.
Is this a war?
Are they fighting rebels who have held at least 200,000 rebels and can fight more than 20,000 soldiers?
Why does it come to your mouth as easily as eating and drinking?
And Hu Baozong’s attitude is so weird, it’s like the two people’s identities are reversed?
Why is it Li Chengzhi who gives the orders?
How could words like "I'm not as good as you" and "I will live up to my trust" come out of Hu Baozong's mouth?
No matter how late he was, Guo Cunxin could see that Hu Baozong was basically following Li Chengzhi's lead...
It’s not too surprising that Li Chengzhi can conquer the Li family. After all, he is Li Shixian’s legitimate son and has natural power.
But being able to convince Hu Baozong really surprised Guo Cunxin.
It is definitely not something that can be done with "life-saving grace"...
After being shocked for a long time, seeing that these two people just pretended that he didn't exist, Guo Cunxin couldn't bear it anymore and advised in a vague way: "The rebels are powerful. If not, how about a long-term plan?"
Li Chengzhi nodded quickly, but what he said was Chelulu's words: "Uncle, don't worry, naturally we won't suppress you when you say it, or beat you when you say it."
At least we need to train new recruits, collect and requisition food and grass, investigate and verify the size and movement of the rebel army... We also need to formulate strategies and study tactics..."
Guo Cunxin didn't understand what strategy and tactics were, but at least he understood. Li Chengzhi was just pretending to be confused.
I said not to fight, but you said when to fight...
He wanted to persuade him again, but Hu Baozong suddenly stood in front of him: "Brother Liu Shi, you don't know about military affairs, so it's better to be less judgmental..."
It means there is no place for you to interrupt.
Guo Cunxin’s nose is almost crooked with anger.
What does this have to do with understanding military matters?
There are 20,000 rebel soldiers, and you only have a few soldiers in your hands. Even a fool knows which one is more powerful.
He looked at Hu Baozong coldly: "Chengfu, are you bullying Chengzhi when he is young?"
Hu Baozong couldn’t laugh or cry: Did I bully him when he was young?
Can't you see that as long as your nephew doesn't cheat me, I will be moved and want to burn incense?
Guo Cunxin seemed to be saying that he was encouraging Li Chengzhi to come forward and eliminate troubles for the Hu family.
Instigation is out of the question, and they do have this intention, but is there no benefit at all for the Li family?
Otherwise, why would the Li family like Li Song be so impatient, just waiting for Li Chengzhi’s order to prepare their troops and wait for the danger?
Of course it is for military exploits, but also for having absolute confidence in Li Chengzhi...
Furthermore, after the incident, could the Hu family and Hu Cishi of Jingzhou still treat the Li family badly?
"Brother Liu Shi, after having a long conversation with you last night, you should know how amazing and extraordinary Cheng Zhi is... Compared to this, Liu Hui and Wang Cai seem like a joke.
Moreover, yesterday in the city, you also saw the fierceness of Li's soldiers, and you can also see the terrifying fighting power of the soldiers trained by Jing Chengzhi, Li Song and others...
Coupled with the skill of bow and armor, I dare not say that Liu Huiwang's thieves are not worth mentioning, but they can be defeated with a strong fight..."
He clearly knew that Hu Baozong meant that Liu Huiwang was not Li Chengzhi's opponent, but when he heard him compare the two, Guo Cunxin's heart still couldn't stop beating a few times...
Just because of Li Shixian, I have been thinking about him for nearly ten years...
He suppressed the surprise in his heart, turned his head again, and looked at Li Song steadily: "It's okay for the two of them to be young. You have been fighting with your brother-in-law for many years. Don't you know how ferocious the weapons are and how dangerous the battle formations are? You just watch it helplessly."
Are you messing around with them?"
Li Chengzhi has already met Li Song, and Li Song is more pleased with Guo Cunxin.
But it was just pleasing to the eye. Li Song's tone was still less respectful: "I know it... But when I look back on those days, it's just like today:
At the time when the Qiang and Hu invaded Jingzhou, Duke Naizhi and Dalang were far away in Wuwei. Erlang was only sixteen years old, but he took the lead and led the tribes and men of the five nine forts to defeat nearly two thousand Qiang and Hu.
Later, he was promoted to an official position... No matter how strong Liu Huiwang was, could he still be able to defeat the Qiang and Hu horse thieves who moved like the wind?"
Guo Cunxin looked angry: "My brother-in-law has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is familiar with military books. Where is Chengzhi?"
"The blue is better than the blue!"
Li Song replied neither humble nor arrogantly, "Furthermore, my family, Li, started with military exploits, and Lang Jun is the clan leader's legitimate son. This is his duty, and he will have to go through it sooner or later... Facing today's rebels head-on, it is better to live in the future."
To suddenly deal with an enemy as powerful as Rouran's cavalry..."
Guo Cunxin was choked and speechless.
He was so busy worrying about Li Chengzhi that he forgot that the Li family in Jingzhou had long abandoned literature and joined the army. They were no longer the Li family who inherited the Book of Songs and governed the world with Confucianism.
The Li family's repeated comebacks relied on military merit... This is the foundation of family heirlooms!
There is also the saying "a young man is worse than a blue man"... I was on the city the day before yesterday and saw the strict military formation below the city. I really dare not say that Li Chengzhi is definitely not as good as Li Shixian...
I am really ridiculous. These Li clan members may have already shifted their hope of reviving the clan from Li Shixian to Li Chengzhi... Asking Li Song, isn't it like asking blindly?
Seeing Guo Cunxin speechless, Li Chengzhi glared at Hu Baozong and Li Song.
These two were afraid that Guo Cunxin would impress them by being too direct.
Since I have made up my mind to suppress the thieves, how can others shake me with just a few words?
He thought for a while and advised in a gentle voice: "Uncle, please be patient. This battle cannot be fought in an instant, nor can it be fought in a day and a half... Li Song and Captain Hu are here, I will wait for you."
You should take care of yourself step by step and work steadily...
To put it unluckily, even if the war is unfavorable, at least there will be this city and Kongtong Mountain as a barrier...it might not be possible for us to make a comeback!"
After hearing this sentence and seeing Hu Baozong and Li Song secretly relieved, Guo Cunxin suddenly realized: Li Chengzhi is the one who is in charge now!
And precisely, he is the one with the strongest will?
How strong is this confidence?
"There are two hundred thousand thieves..." he reminded coldly.
Li Chengzhi said categorically: "So what if a bunch of rabble is worth millions?"
It’s not like he was bragging.
If Liu Huiwang's men were all of the same caliber as the rebels who were annihilated in the city the day before, even if there were one million, he wouldn't be afraid...
Seeing Li Chengzhi's high spirits and heroic spirit, Guo Cunxin was slightly absent-minded, as if he had seen Li Shixian twenty years ago.
"There are only two thousand horse thieves, why should we be afraid?"
It was this sentence that completely impressed his father, treating him like a dragon and a phoenix among men, and finally promised him his sister, whom the whole family regarded as a treasure...
Divine wisdom!
Guo Cunxin naturally thought of what Hu Baozong said, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes...
"Then let's suppress it...but remember not to advance rashly. Li Bai is a lesson learned..."
Li Chengzhi was overjoyed and bowed deeply: "Thank you uncle for your understanding of justice!"
As he spoke, he moved closer and said with a smile: "I just have something that I need my uncle to help me with..."
Hu Baozong was wondering, Guo Cunxin just relaxed, why did he need to perform such a big ceremony?
At this time, I saw Li Chengzhi showing a well-behaved look that he had never seen before, and I felt a chill in my heart: Could this be...even my uncle wants to trick him?
