PS: You may have noticed that yesterday's update was a little strange.,One chapter is early in the morning.,One chapter is night.,In fact, it was Snow Love who returned to his hometown yesterday morning.,The chapter that was updated at night was released regularly.。 Xue Lian didn't come back until six o'clock this afternoon.,And then it's a lot of busy.,It's not until now that a chapter has been coded.,Forgive me.。 However, Snow Love will strive to update another chapter, that is to say, today's two more are still guaranteed.

Because the effect of the previous recommendation is too poor, from today, this book is going to start running naked. I don't know when the next recommendation will be available, which is undoubtedly very bad news. I hope you will support Snow Love, vote more, and remember to collect books that you don't collect, so let's spend this difficult time together.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The heads of the major families in Yecheng were all invited to the Thorn Mansion by Li Yi (in order not to let some book friends spray, when it comes to the protagonist from this chapter, they usually only use the name and not the words, that is, the name of the protagonist's previous life) to the Thorn History Mansion.

Jizhou is worthy of the title of the first state of the Han Dynasty, and Yecheng is also worthy of being the core of Jizhou. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the major powerful men gathered in Yecheng, which made Yecheng become powerful everywhere. The invitation list that Li Yi asked Tian Feng to draw up was all the kind of family private soldiers with more than five hundred.

Although this standard has been raised very high, when Tian Feng handed over the final invitation list to Li Yi, Li Yi was still stunned, this list is more than one hundred and fifty years! The bamboo slips that burned the list were rolled into a cylinder with a diameter of one foot!

The private soldiers owned by these powerful men ranged from five hundred to two or three thousand. Li Yi roughly calculated, it was the private soldiers of more than 150 powerful lords, adding up to more than 20,000.

This is a force that makes Li Yi feel frightened. You must know that this is a private soldier carefully built by the major powerful lords to protect the family business, this is their hole card to ensure the interests of the family, and it can even be said to be a trump card, one by one they are armed to the teeth, and even better equipped than the northern army of the imperial court.

After receiving Li Yi's invitation, these powerful gate valves were also very surprised, and they didn't know what was going on. However, considering that Li Yi himself is a famous family, he is still in a high position, and now he has to rely on Li Yi to keep the city, so he still gives face, and basically comes to the banquet as promised.

However, after learning of Li Yi's purpose, the performance of these gate lords was different, most of them refused, and some did not show a clear trend, making it clear that they wanted to wait and see, only a very small number of families expressed their support for Li Yi, and were willing to take out part of their strength to help defend the city.

However, there are too few of these families, there are only about a dozen in total, and the private soldiers that can be taken out add up to less than three thousand. For today's Yecheng defense, it is a drop in the bucket and cannot solve the problem.

Li Yi looked at those powerful family heads with different expressions, and smiled coldly, of course he knew what these people were thinking. These people, if there are interests to be made, they will definitely pounce on them like wolves, but if they want to pay, it is like asking for their lives.

Li Yi patted the case, stood up, and said loudly: "Everyone, Li Yi should try his best to protect the city, but now the situation in Yecheng, you should be very clear that Zhang Jiao, the leader of the moth thieves, led his elite 150,000 to surround the city. And the city is only the remnants of less than 20,000 northern troops, and the safety of the city will not be guaranteed. When the city is broken, there is no guarantee that many of you will survive. Ugly words are ahead, don't blame Ben for not warning in advance. ”

Li Yi's voice fell, and the hall was quiet, and a needle could be heard in the quiet of the field.

However, the silence did not last long, and after a few breaths, the lobby was even louder than before.

"Li Yuanjun, you are the general of the Xiaocai appointed by the Son of Heaven, the commander of Youzhou, and the commander-in-chief of the Hebei battlefield, how can you say such irresponsible words?"

"Yes, yes, Li Yuanjun, guarding the safety of Yecheng is the holy order given to you by the Son of Heaven!"

"The duty of defending the land must not be abandoned!"

"Li Yi, do you want to disobey the will of the Son of Heaven?"

……

Looking at the powerful family owners with strict righteousness and angry expressions, Li Yi still had a sneer on his face.

At this moment, a white-faced, beardless, forty-year-old scribe stood up and said loudly, "Li Yuanjun, please take back your order." ”

Li Yi looked at the middle-aged scribe and said lightly: "It turned out to be Mr. Boling Cui Boyi Cui." I wonder why Mr. Cui taught me? ”

The person who spoke was Cui Yu, whose name was Boyi, and he was the contemporary head of the Cui family in Boling. The Cui family is a first-class family in Jizhou and even the entire Han Dynasty, and is now divided into two branches, one in Boling and one in Qinghe.

Anyone who has heard or watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" knows Boling. Because, Boling has a Cui Zhouping. In the very wonderful episode of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" "Liu Xuande's Three Visits to the Thatched House", there is a plot where Liu Bei meets Boling Cui Zhouping, and when Sima Hui recommended the Magi to Uncle Liu Huang, he only mentioned Zhuge Liang's four virtuous close friends, that is, Boling Cui Zhouping, Yingchuan Shi Guangyuan, Runan Meng Gongwei and Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi.

The Boling Cui clan is a famous family that has endured for thousands of years, the family from the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, has produced more than 20 prime ministers, generals, hundreds of officials above the squire, poets, writers, calligraphers and painters are innumerable. Cui Zhouping is just one of the brilliant stars of this family.

Li Yi doesn't know what the relationship between this Cui Yu Cui Boyi and Zhuge Liang's best friend Cui Zhouping is, after all, Cui Zhouping should still be a penny boy now, and this Cui Yu is already the head of the Boling Cui family. The Boling Cui clan is powerful, and in Yecheng, there are more than 2,000 private soldiers of the family, which is definitely the top family.

Cui Yu shook his head and said, "I don't dare to say it, but Cui Yu does have some heartfelt words that I want to talk to Li Yuanjun." I have heard that Li Yuanjun is a descendant of Yingchuan Yuanli. Back then, Yuan Ligong was the leader of my Han clan, and he was captured by the outside world, so that the Hu people did not dare to go south and herd horses; The internal resistance to the eunuch party is a model for my great Han scholars. Famous in the world, the world admires it. Looking at Li Yuanjun's words today, they are as bad as heaven and earth, and if Yuanli Gonggong hears it, he will also be ashamed! ”

When Li Yi heard this, he was furious in his heart, Nima's little white face looked like a dog, and he didn't scold people without a dirty word. But he knew that it was not okay to be angry at this time, otherwise he would be in the hands of others.

Forcibly holding back the anger in his heart, Li Pengfei said lightly: "The merits of the ancestors, Li Yi knows that it is difficult to deal with what happens, so he has the previous words. If you don't have self-knowledge and fight bravely, isn't that a joke about the lives of more than 100,000 people in the city? I have also heard that Mr. Cui is the former Minister of Boling, and he must also be a hero in the heart of Jinxiu. It's better for Mr. Cui to command the defense of this Yecheng, and Li Mougan is a deputy general, what is it? ”

Cui Yu listened to this, and his face was full of shame. Li Yi is right, he is the former minister of Bolingguo, no, to be precise, the current minister of Bolingguo, because Bolingguo was occupied by the Yellow Turban Army in his hands. And now the imperial court has not appointed a new state minister, and he has not been removed from the post of Boling state minister. If he had the ability to defend Yecheng, would he still lose Boling Kingdom?

You must know that Boling City is the birthplace of Emperor Han Huan, and Emperor Han Huan took care of his nest after ascending the throne. In the first year of Emperor Huan Yongkang, the two counties of Hejian and Boling can be compared with Xinfeng built by Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, for the emperor, and Pei County, the hometown of Gaozu, and its prosperity can be imagined. And the solidity of Boling City is not much better than that of Ye City. As for the geographical advantage, Yecheng has the danger of Zhangshui, and Boling is also surrounded by water, and the two are indistinguishable.

However, when Zhang Bao led 30,000 Yellow Turban troops to attack Boling City, Cui Yudu only left 20,000 defenders and fled in embarrassment with 3,000 family private soldiers, not to mention that there are now less than 20,000 demoralized remnants of the Northern Army in Yecheng, but there are 150,000 troops led by Zhang Jiao outside the city.

Cui Yu could only glare at Li Yi fiercely, shook off a "you are ruthless" look, and then sat back in his place in a sneer.

Li Yi smiled faintly and returned a look at each other.
