Chapter 521: Punishment
In other words, half a year ago, Li Xin may not have the confidence to say this.
But he has it now.
This confidence does not come from the more than 40,000 forbidden troops in Fu County, but from the nearly 50,000 Nanshu combat power brought by Mu Ying.
Mu Ying was driven back by Li Xin, it has been half a year, half a year, not to mention whether the 50,000 remnants of Nanshu can still fight, but the two hundred Yulin orphans brought by Mu Ying have gradually become the backbone of these 50,000 people, especially with the benefit of Li Xin, Mu Ying has basically become the actual speaker of the Mu family, and Mu Qing, the head of the Mu family, has a tacit understanding to give up most of the power of the Mu family and hand it over to this eldest son.
Today, the Mu family still accounts for a lot of the 50,000-strong army, but the collective will is gradually becoming Mu Ying's will.
And Mu Ying is the continuation of Li Xin's will.
The forbidden army of the imperial court, no matter how powerful and majestic, is only a hand, and there is no more than ten or twenty years, and these people are not familiar with it.
Even if he was like the great general Pei Jin Pei Saburo, who led the forbidden army for more than ten years, when Pei Jin was carried out of the forbidden army by Mingsheng and secretly descended, the people in the forbidden army didn't even dare to fart.
Therefore, although Li Xin still regards these forbidden soldiers as his brothers, and now he treats them as his own people, he has never regarded them as his own team, and he knows very well in his heart that the person under Muying in Hanzhou City is the best knife to really refer to.
The forbidden army is also a knife, but it is not Li Xin's own knife, he was holding the knife for the person sitting on the dragon chair before.
It was precisely because of the 50,000 Nanshu "righteous army" that Li Xin held in his hand that he had the confidence to say what he just said.
Ping Nanhou described it very right, Li Xin is now like a fat man, looking huge, friendless, illustrious and wealthy, but all this is because he has Taikang Tianzi behind him, and one day Taikang Tianzi is unwilling to support Li Xin, and even when Li Xin is stabbed in the back, this fat fat man will be like a leaky balloon, instantly turned into nothing.
Li Xin is also very aware of this situation, he understands that his foundation is too shallow and he is "fat", but he doesn't dare to make changes, or even dare to "exercise", because Li Xin knows very well that after the Chengde Emperor, no matter who from the Ji family sits in this position, he will not allow the second Pingnan Hou Mansion, or the second Chen Guogong Mansion.
Li Xin can only keep "fat" and be helped by Taikang Tianzi forever, so that Taikang Tianzi will rest assured.
Therefore, in order to get rid of this situation, Li Xin chose to set up another root in the southwest, and now this root has begun to take root and sprout, and when it grows strongly, it can become the skeleton of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, so that Li Xin is no longer a "fat man who can't stand on his feet".
It is also because of this root that Li Xin categorically rejected Li Shen's suggestion.
There is no need for him to make the Jing'an Hou Mansion the second Pingnan Hou Mansion, and the facts have also proved that the model of the Pingnan Hou Mansion is not very long.
Moreover, due to personal emotional factors, Li Xin was not very willing to play with the Pingnan Hou Mansion and interdependent.
After listening to Li Xin's answer, General Zhu Guoda was not surprised.
"You don't have to rush to answer me about this, you can think about it yourself."
Li Shen grabbed the reins with his hand and said slowly: "Calculate the time, about seven or eight days later, I will bring troops over to attack Fuxian, at that time, it is not too late for Jing'an Hou to give me an answer, if Jing'an Hou does not agree at that time, my Pingnan army will go all out to attack the city, if Jing'an Hou agrees, not only Fucheng, but even Mianzhu I can also hand it over to you as a station." ”
As he spoke, Li Shen turned the horse's head and took a deep breath.
"You haven't seen my father, but Ye Guogong should be very familiar with him, there are not many people I admire in my life, Ye Guogong is one of them, he is still trapped in the capital and can't move, he can only drink wine and plant flowers at home for thirty years, where are you smarter than Ye Guogong?"
"If you want to spend the rest of your life raising grass and flowers in your Pony Mansion, then you can assume that I didn't say these words."
After saying these last two sentences, Li Shen walked away.
Behind him, nearly a thousand horsemen followed, raising a puff of smoke and dust.
Li Xin squinted his eyes and looked in the direction where Li Shen was going, and sneered: "I guess I'm already panicking to death, and I have to pretend to see through everything, are you tired?" ”
Li Shen, who was already far away, had no way to answer his question.
The Marquis of Jing'an also turned his horse's head, smiled at the guards behind him and said: "Brothers, the general has already asked people to collect wine and meat in the city, everyone has been attacking the city hard these days, let's fight the tooth sacrifice tonight, how about it?" ”
Everyone immediately cheered and hugged Li Xin into the county seat of Fuxian.
"General Li is wise!"
……
Fuxian is not very large, the whole city is the scale of fifty or sixty thousand people, Li Xin's forbidden army poured in, almost half of the people in this city have been added, so even if the wine and meat in the city are gathered, it is not enough for these forbidden troops to eat with an open stomach, and in the end, it is the Marquis Li who broke the fee and paid for his subordinates to go to the nearby village to collect a lot of pigs back, and everyone in the forbidden army ate a mouthful of meat.
As the "boss", Li Xin naturally had a good time with the people, and after drinking with his subordinates for a night, Li Xin carried two hooves and half a jar of wine to a private house they borrowed.
Jing Anhou has been carrying his hooves and wine in the other hand, so he really has no time to spare, so he simply kicked open the door with his foot.
On the hospital bed in the room, there was a sturdy young man with a somewhat pale complexion.
It was Ye Mao, who was injured in the first battle of Fu County, at this time, this little grandfather who was like a calf on weekdays, not only had a crossbow arrow cut in his shoulder, but also injured his ribs and back many times.
Li Xin put his hooves and wine on the table expressionlessly.
The little grandfather lying on the bed suddenly smiled.
"Uncle Shi is still good to me, and he didn't forget to think about me when he ate."
Li Xin grabbed a hoof with one hand and took a bite in front of Ye Mao with an expressionless face.
"It's not for you."
General Li gnawed and said, "You have suffered a traumatic injury, and eating these is easy to become inflamed. ”
“………。”
Although I didn't quite understand what inflammation meant, Li Xin's words made the little grandfather speechless.
"It's not for me to eat, what are you bringing it for!"
He almost gritted his teeth.
"Bring it to you and let you watch me eat."
Li Xin took a few bites, then took a sip of wine.
The aroma of wine soon came out, and this smell was too familiar to Ye Mao.
He looked fixedly at the wine jar in Li Xin's hand.
"This is a toast for the army to remove poison, Uncle Shi, you actually drink it secretly!"
The right to brew Zhurong wine has been taken back by Taikang Tianzi, but Li Xinding's rules have not changed, that is, the best quality of Zhurong wine is supplied to the army for disinfection.
These wines are all good wines.
Ye Mao ignored the wounds on his body and shouted, "Uncle Shi, give me a mouthful!" ”
"You have a wound on your body, you can't drink."
Li Xin calmly and resolutely rejected the little grandfather's request, he took a bite of his hoof, and then turned his head to stare at Ye Mao.
"Is it uncomfortable?"
Ye Mao swallowed his saliva and nodded honestly.
"It's uncomfortable."
"It's just uncomfortable."
The Marquis of Jing'an raised his head and took a sip of wine, then turned his head to look at Ye Mao quietly.
"Listen up."
"The next time you don't obey the command and charge into battle like this, I will immediately send you back to your father."
Marquis Li's mouth was full of oil, but he didn't care about his image at all, and he talked while gnawing.
"Your father and grandfather once asked me to take care of you in the southwest."
"So anyone can die, but you can't die, if you die, I can't explain it to Senior Brother Ye and Master Ye."
"Understood."
The little grandfather stared at the hoof in Li Xin's hand, swallowed his saliva, and said a little embarrassed: "Uncle Shi, I will listen to you whatever you say, give me a mouthful or not, just take a ......."
The Marquis of Jing'an gave him a blank look.
"Didn't I tell you, you have a wound on your body, and if you eat too oil, it will become inflamed."
