"This..." Wan He said this. Li Shentong didn't know how to answer. After all, Li Shentong is just a warrior. How can a war of words be compared to Wan He. Besides, Wan He's attitude is that he will not give up to life or death. Entering the city. Li Shentong thought about it. It doesn't make any difference whether this kid enters the city or not. Originally, Li Yuan didn't intend to do anything to this kid. He judged the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. He found the fault himself and couldn't blame others. The most important thing is to settle this matter as soon as possible, and then go back to Li Yuan to discuss it. Li Shentong immediately saluted Wan He and said: "In that case, the general knows that there is a military camp outside Taiyuan City. But it is empty." Come out and let the Marquis use it."
"That's not possible." Wan He frowned and shook his head and said: "This military camp was originally used by soldiers and horses stationed in Taiyuan. If it is used by me, then where will the soldiers originally stationed in the military camp go? Soldiers They fought bloody battles for the country and the people. How can I deprive them of their place of residence? No, no."
Li Shentong's face became increasingly ugly. He made two suggestions in succession, both of which were rejected by Wan He. This was obviously a deliberate attempt to make things difficult. But Li Shentong couldn't get angry at Wan He yet. He could only He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a deep voice: "Then what should be done according to the wishes of the Marquis."
"Well..." Li Shentong's guess was not wrong. Wan He was deliberately making things difficult this time. So no matter how many suggestions Li Shentong came up with, Wan He would always find excuses to refuse. Now he doesn't make suggestions when he sees Li Shentong. Wan He just lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then he said: "Let's see. It looks quite open here. It's better to set up camp here. Wait until tomorrow to close the camp and continue on the road."
"Uh." Li Shentong was stunned when he heard what Wan He said. He set up camp here. This place is still one or two hundred miles away from Taiyuan. After discussing it with Li Yuan later, he will definitely still want to camp. I came here to find Wanhe. Is it possible that he still has to travel a hundred or two hundred miles from Taiyuan? Wouldn't this be too inconvenient? Li Shentong hesitated for a moment and said, "This, Mr. Hou, is a little too simple." .It would be better to do this. The Marquis can order the soldiers to camp here. But the Marquis is rich and valuable. It is better to follow the general to live in the city post."
"What are you talking about?" Wan He immediately looked unhappy. He frowned and said, "Although I am not talented, I have also been on the battlefield. How can I not bear even this little hardship? The hardships of this army. Could it be that only the soldiers can bear it, but I cannot bear it? General Li, why do you look down upon me so much?"
"I don't dare." Knowing that Wan He was making excuses, Li Shentong could only hold back his temper and apologize. He had already scolded Wan He's ancestors for eight generations. Li Shentong's mind changed. He might as well just apologize. Don't worry about it anymore. You have to suffer this pain yourself. Why don't I stop you? At worst, I can just run a few more times tonight. Thinking of this, Li Shentong said: "Since the Marquis has made up his mind, then let's make do with it." I have no choice but to obey my order. I will go back now and report to my brother. I believe that my brother will come over to pay homage to the Marquis later."
After saying that, Li Shentong saluted and turned to leave. He couldn't stand the idleness anymore. However, before he could take a step, he heard Wan He's light voice coming from behind him: "Li General, please stay a moment."
"Uh." Wan He shouted. No matter how much Li Shentong wanted to leave, he had to retract his feet. He turned around and glanced at Wan He. He took a deep breath, clasped his fists and bowed again, and said: "Hou Do you have any other instructions?"
"Haha. I don't dare to take orders seriously." Wan He chuckled. He took another step forward and stood side by side with Li Shentong. Then he said with a smile: "General Li, to be honest with you, the brothers have been having a rough time these days. It's hard. They eat and sleep in the open every day. I am their commander. I see it in my eyes, but it also hurts in my heart."
As soon as Wan He's words changed, he started to complain again. This change also made Li Shentong a little confused. Therefore, Li Shentong did not dare to answer the conversation easily. He simply stood there and said nothing. But Li Shentong did not speak. Wan He didn't care. Instead, he continued to say: "So, when I came to Taiyuan today, I was thinking about whether I should compensate my brothers. It's just that I live in Taiyuan, which is a different place. Familiar. To be honest, the only person I know is Tang Guogong. So I have no choice but to shamelessly ask for help from Tang Guogong."
The corner of Li Shentong's mouth twitched, but he said with a gloomy face: "Well, I don't know what the Marquis wants my brother to do. As long as it is within his ability, I believe that my brother will also be able to help."
"Easy to say. Easy to say." Wan He looked up to the sky and smiled. He nodded repeatedly. He turned around and said to Li Shentong: "Actually, I just want to reward the brothers. The military order is in front. This wine, of course, cannot be given to the brothers. We drank. But the meat cannot be missing. So, it is like asking Duke Tang to show his loyalty as a landlord and prepare some meat for the brothers below. Haha. Don’t want too much. Too much is too wasteful. Just enough to feed these brothers in the Imperial Guard."
At this moment, Li Shentong's cheeks were almost shaking. In front of him, behind Wan He, there were more than 10,000 people. There was enough meat for these people. Isn't that enough? I just heard that Wan He Li Shentong knew that this boy wanted to blackmail him. But he didn't expect that this boy would blackmail him so hard. In fact, the cost of the meat was not that much. But the problem was that in this short period of time, the Li family had to pay for the blackmail. Where can I find so much meat? But now Li Xiaogong is in Wan He's hands. It means that Wan He has a big handle on the Li family. The Li family still has to listen to Wan He's request. Thinking of this. Li Shentong could only give Wan He a fist and salute, and said in a deep voice: "The Marquis loves his soldiers as much as his own son. He has the demeanor of a famous general. The general admires him greatly. In that case, the general will go back and prepare for the Marquis now."
"This is the best thing." Wan He chuckled and saluted Li Shentong and said, "Then I and the brothers in the Royal Forest Army will just wait for the good news from Duke Tang."
Li Shentong's face turned black. He quickly turned around and led the thousands of Taiyuan troops towards Taiyuan. He was afraid that if he stayed a moment longer, Wan He would come up with some weird tricks. He watched Li Shentong and his party. After leaving, Wan He's lips curled up slightly. He turned to Li Jing and smiled: "Brother Li, let the brothers get ready. Let's go."
"Let's go." Li Jing heard the conversation between Wan He and Li Shentong just now clearly. Didn't he say that he would set up camp here and wait for Li Yuan to bring the meat? Why did he suddenly have to leave again? Li Jing is also a smart man But he couldn't keep up with Wan He's thinking rhythm. He looked at Wan He with a confused face and asked: "Brother Wan, where are we going?"
Wan He glanced at the direction where Li Shentong and others were leaving, but pointed his finger in the other direction. He smiled and said: "The terrain here is flat. It is not a good place to set up camp. Let's look over there and see if we can Find a high mountain or something. Haha. Didn't Brother Li teach me last time? Set up camp and choose some dangerous places. This will be safe."
"Uh." Of course, this last sentence was said by Li Jing. Some time ago, Wan He suddenly asked Li Jing on a whim about marching and fighting. Li Jing also taught him with all his heart. Now Wan He suddenly said such a sentence, and Li Jing did the same. With a puzzled face, he asked: "Brother Wan, are you worried that Li Yuan will send troops to attack us? This should be impossible. Li Yuan is not a fool. We are the vanguard after all. If he dares to attack us, it will be the same as before. To conspire against and rebel."
"Hehe. Brother Li, you guessed wrong." Wan He waved his hand and said to Li Jing with a smile: "Didn't I just say it? This time I have to let that old guy Li Yuan peel off his skin. So... I We need to give this old guy a hard time first."
"This..." Wan He said. Li Jing finally understood. He looked at Wan He with a weird look on his face. God knows how this guy's head grew, to think of such a childish trick. But when he thought about how angry Li Yuan would be if he did this, it was rare for Li Jing to show his childish thoughts. He smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yeah. I've seen it on the map before. It's west of Taiyuan City. There is a hill more than one hundred and thirty miles away, which is also a long way from here. Why don't we go there."
"Okay, okay." Wan He chuckled and nodded repeatedly. He turned around and got on the horse. At the same time, he did not forget to say to Pei Xingyan behind him: "Xingyan, you have to watch the boy carefully. I didn't get this thing. We can’t lose our meat tickets. Hahahaha.”
Wan He laughed loudly as he spoke. Finally, he pointed to the west and shouted with high spirits: "Brothers, march in this direction."
"What." An exclamation came from the Duke of Tang's Mansion in Taiyuan City. In the study room of Duke of Tang's Mansion, Li Yuan's eyes widened and he stared at Li Shentong in front of him. He shouted sharply: "He is really That’s what he said.”
Li Shentong didn't speak, but the answer could be seen from his attitude. Immediately, Li Yuan slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground. It immediately shattered into pieces. Li Yuan also slapped the case and shouted angrily: "How dare you, the thief, bully me like this? Come here, give me all your troops. I will kill this thief tonight and avenge my son."
"No." Li Yuan had just finished speaking. Li Shimin, the second son who was sitting next to Li Yuan, immediately stood up and said to Li Yuan: "Father, please calm down. Don't act impulsively."
