Chapter 606: Beat the Reservoir Dogs

(Ask for a few tickets.) This month's ticket is not powerful at all, but Muzi's update this month is very powerful...... ）

In all fairness, Li Xiuning left Chen Kefu with a very good feeling. Her image of a generous and virtuous lady once deeply moved Chen Kefu, making him think that although this is not the most romantic and beautiful beginning, it may bring a beautiful and happy future for the two. Even before the separation of Luoshui, Chen Kefu always thought so.

However, even now, he still has a very good impression of Li Xiuning and is looking forward to reuniting with her, but this still can't weaken Chen Kefu's dislike for Li Yuan and Li Shimin's father and son.

Although speaking of which, the behavior of Li Yuan's father and son is only a very common behavior in today's gate valve era. After all, compared to the happiness of his daughter, the interests of the valve family are the highest. But such a thing really spread on his head, and he almost died at one point. If he hadn't been rescued by Zhai Wushuang at the beginning, I was afraid that he would have already become a dry bone at the bottom of the Luoshui River.

Even though he has now become a prince, Chen Kefu still can't forgive the Li family's father and son. In his heart, he still retains the concept of an ordinary person. Grievances are clear, and revenge must be avenged.

"Let me take a thousand men and horses, take a boat along the Yellow River to the east, until the east of the river, and touch into Zhongtiao Mountain to kill Li Yuan and his son." Lu Shishen and the others were summoned up the mountain, and after hearing the latest information about Li Yuan's father and son, they immediately stood up and said loudly.

Zhang Zhongjian, the general of the Navy Division Hailongwei, had just rushed to Jijun with half of the 50,000 horses of the Navy Division, and he was also present in the battle of the Luoyang raid. Most of his dozens of brothers were killed or wounded in that battle, and he was also chased and escaped by jumping into the water that day. He has always been ashamed of this matter, and now that he heard that Li Jiashan was exhausted and forced to flee into Zhongtiao Mountain, he couldn't help but immediately support Lu Shishen's opinion.

"Your Highness, I can send a fleet disguised as a caravan to Hedong, and then send more than a thousand elite soldiers, bring more strong bows and crossbows, and bring some bombs, and finally guarantee to bring back the heads of Li Yuan and his son."

Li Jing, as the marching marshal of the pacification of Hebei counties, had just arrived in Ji County to discuss some military affairs with Chen Kefu. At this time, seeing Chen Kefu's uncertain and hesitant look on his face, he also helped to explain, "It's not bad to let General Lu go to Hedong, Li Yuan's father and son are now at the end of their rope, but we still have to prevent them from defecting to other forces when they have no way out." The defeat of Li Yuan is a foregone conclusion, but Li Yuan's power is not small, whether it is his prestige in Hedong or his connections in Hedong over the years, it is very important. And there is also a very important point, Li Yuan has indeed recruited a lot of talents in these years, if he surrenders to other forces, then those who were attached to the Li family before will inevitably follow to other forces, and this is not a good thing. ”

And Li Valve and Guanzhong Yuwen Valve have gradually become the two representatives of Guanlong Group. With the second valve as the leader, they have gradually divided and co-opted the most powerful Guanlong group in the northwest. The Guanlong group is powerful, and my Hebei court should try to win them over, and we can't afford to let them be used by other forces. Kill Li Yuan, then those forces of the Li family will inevitably disperse, even if someone will join other forces, it is impossible for any force to annex the Li family's forces in one fell swoop. With the current situation of our imperial court, the biggest benefit from killing Li Yuan's father and son may be our Hebei, so I am in favor of sending an elite army to remove Li Yuan's father and son. ”

After Chen Kefu knew that the Li family's father and son had only a few thousand remnants left and retreated into Zhongtiao Mountain, he had always been a little uncalm in his heart, thinking about their previous betrayal of him. All I think about is to take the opportunity to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, fall into the well and fall into the rocks, and so on. Therefore, he was impatiently summoned to report to Li Jing, Zhang Zhongjian and others. Originally, his idea was to send an elite small army to kill directly to Zhongtiao Mountain, and take advantage of this opportunity to kill Li Yuan and his son, and never give them the slightest chance to turn over. …,

However, during the time he was sitting here waiting for Li Jing and them to come, he finally calmed down a little bit of excitement.

As soon as Lu Shishen, Zhang Zhongjian, and Li Jing came, they said that they wanted to get rid of Li Yuan's father and son, so that Chen Kefu calmed down. He carefully considered the whole thing, but found that Li Jing, whom he had always admired deeply, always had a very unique vision when arranging troops and formulating strategies and tactics. But when it comes to talking about these things outside of the war, it's a little too much to take for granted.

Chen Kefu frowned, and glanced at Guo Xiaoke, who had not spoken since he came in, "Xiaoke, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Guo Xiaoke lowered his head and did not speak.

"If you have any ideas, just say them, just talk about them."

Guo Xiaoke glanced at Li Jing and the other three, all three of them had higher positions than him, and he still had some scruples in his heart when he said something against them.

The last general's opinion was contrary to that of the three adults, and the last general thought that the Li family had indeed reached the end of the road at the end of the road. Although the Li family still has Taiyuan, Shangdang and other counties, but Li Yuan's father and son are surrounded in Zhongtiao Mountain, and they can't go back to Taiyuan Shangdang at all, and it won't be long before they either starve to death in the mountains, or they can only surrender to Wang Shichong and other forces. And with the guess of the last general, with Li Yuan's fox-like character, he will definitely not sit still until the last step, so they have the greatest chance of surrendering. ”

Lu Shishen looked at Guo Xiaoke suspiciously, "In this way, don't we have to kill Li Yuan even more to prevent Li Yuan from joining other forces, and then let Hedong also fall into his hands?" ”

Guo Xiaoke smiled, "What we estimated in front was about the same, but the subordinates in the back had different opinions. ”

"Tell me what you think." Chen Kefu nodded, looking at Guo Xiaoke with great interest, he thought about it in his heart just now, and he also felt that it was not very realistic to send someone to kill Li Yuan.

With Chen Kefu's encouragement, Guo Xiaoke gradually let go, on such an occasion, if he can tell Wang Chen what he thinks in his heart, and can get his praise, then he will inevitably be more reused in the future.

After organizing it in his mind, Guo Xiaoke's face became more and more confident, "I don't approve of sending troops to kill Li Yuan's father and son, first of all, it is too difficult to succeed in this matter." Li Yuan's father and son are in Zhongtiao Mountain in Hedong County, although it seems not far from us, but there are still Li Mi and Wang Shichong along the way. There are too many people we have sent, so it is unlikely that they will pass through the territory controlled by Li Mi and Wang Shichong. And if we send fewer people, then in the vast Zhongtiao Mountain, how can we find Li Yuan's father and son? And although Li Yuan's father and son are now at the end of their rope, don't forget that Li Yuan's father and son still have more than 3,000 people, and our intelligence doesn't say that it was Madame who saved them? ”

"There is another problem here, that is, Madame is also with Li Yuan and the others now, and she is still with a team of thousands of soldiers and horses. So Li Yuan's current men and horses are no less than 5,000, if we want to find and destroy 5,000 people in the mountains and forests, how many people do we have to send? And what if the lady is hurt then? ”

If you want to find and destroy at least 5,000 people in the vast Zhongtiao Mountains, then you can't at least be less than that. It is impossible to send 5,000 men and horses all the way through the territory of Li Mi and Wang Shichong to Hedong.

Guo Xiaoke looked at everyone and couldn't answer, and felt a little more confident in his heart, "Killing Li Yuan's father and son seems to be feasible, but it can't be actually operated, so this is the first reason for my opposition." Of course, this is not the main reason, the main reason is whether it is necessary or not. In my opinion, killing Li Yuan at this time will do more harm than good. ”

"Why?" Chen Kefu looked at Guo Xiaoke with admiration, he had always regarded this general of the Liaodong Army who was born in his own guard as a confidant in the past, but he didn't notice that he still had such careful thinking. …,

As Wei Jungong said, Li Mi has no way out now, and the biggest possibility is to take refuge in other forces. And in this way, the talents that the Li family has attracted over the years, the forces that have gathered, and the momentum in Hedong will inevitably be used by the forces that receive him. This kind of thing is very bad for us. In the face of this situation, I think that it is better for us to simply kill Li Yuan's father and son to prevent this from happening, and it is better for us to receive Li Yuan's father and son, their forces in Hedong, and the talents they have gathered over the years. ”

Chen Kefu's eyes raised, "You mean to let me persuade Li Yuan's father and son?" ”

Lu Shishen also glanced at Guo Xiaoke in surprise, "Old Guo, do you know what you're talking about?" Li Yuan's father and son betrayed His Royal Highness like that, and this matter must be punished. We haven't killed them yet, and His Highness is already merciful, how can we still persuade them to accept this shameless father and son? ”

Guo Xiaoke bowed and saluted, "Your Highness, your subordinates think that the best revenge for Li Yuan's father and son is not to kill them, but to let them watch themselves slowly become nothing, and even have to live under the control of His Highness every day, and the fear and trembling day by day is the best punishment for them." ”

"Hahaha!" Chen Kefu laughed a few times, stepped forward and patted Guo Xiaoke's shoulder, "What you said has some truth, killing Li Yuan's father and son like this is indeed too cheap for them." However, how can you be sure that Li Yuan's father and son will take refuge in me and let us get those forces and talents of the Li family? You must know that Li Yuan's father and son are notoriously cunning and untrustworthy, once they are allowed to pass this level, I am afraid that they will immediately show their fangs and betray the master. ”

Guo Xiaoke smiled mysteriously, "Since my subordinates dare to say this, of course they have thought of these things a long time ago, and they have already thought of countermeasures. ”
