The autumn wind is blowing, but Li Cunxin already seems to be in the cold winter of Sanjiu.

In the Jin Palace, Yanmenya City, the faint sunlight shines through the heavy and dark clouds, through the window lattice, and finally spills on the hall.

The sky was overcast and gloomy, but Li Cunxin, who was standing at the end of the hall, was even more gloomy in his heart, and the whole person was in a trance and fell into fear and sorrow. Today's clouds are unusually heavy, obscuring the sky that should be high and crisp, with light clouds and light winds. When you look up, you can't see the bright sunshine that used to be. In the courtyard outside the hall, the withered yellow leaves that are constantly swept up by the wind are arrogantly fluttering and whirling in the air, blocking people's vision, and in the air, you can vaguely smell a treacherous murderous atmosphere, the smell is strong, and it stimulates the sense of smell like blood.

He stared at the 'Khitan envoy' who was standing in the hall and talking freely, he wanted to jump out impulsively and shouted loudly, this is not the Khitan envoy, this is the spy of Li Jing of the Qin army. But his hands and feet were weak, he couldn't take a step, his throat was full, and he couldn't open his mouth. Although he clearly knew the identity of the other party, this news also came from the other party's initiative to disclose. Since the other party dares to reveal his identity to himself, it proves that the other party has no fear.

What is the other party's dependence?

Li Cun knew very well in his confidence that the other party dared to do this because they were holding their own handles. He is indeed as the other party imagined, he cares about his own life, and it is impossible to drag the other party to die together.

Damn Li Jing, it's simply a ghost. He originally thought that after returning to Yanmen and gaining Li Keyong's renewed trust, he could get rid of Li Jing. Unexpectedly, things are still so cruel. He couldn't help but think of the letter. He stayed up all night last night. He read the letter all night. Then it was eventually burned to ashes.

The letter was written by Li Jing, giving him a task to help him secretly, saying that Li Keyong would send troops to the grassland to help the Khitan. And, if possible, he also asked him to move Li Keyong to send troops to Yiwu Town, Hebei Province again to attack Li Quanzhong.

Li Cunxin knew that Li Jing had recently gathered more than 100,000 troops. Preparations are underway for the Northern Expedition to the Khitan. Normally, Li Jing should hope that Sha Tuo will not move and will not support the Khitan. But Li Jing asked him to help, and finally said that Li Keyong was sent to the grassland, why is this?

He was a little confused, but he decided that it must be a conspiracy.

He wanted to ignore Li Jing, but he was too afraid of Li Jing. He understands that if Li Jing wants to deal with him, there is a way. Moreover. Shatuo and Li Keyong, compared to his Li Cunxin's life. It's really nothing. At the end of the letter, Li Jing also specially awarded him the title of viscount of Fanyi Founding County.

On the throne, the tall and burly Li Keyong wore a black blindfold with one eye, the Shatuo crown on his head, a leather robe with small lapels and narrow sleeves, a large belt inlaid with gold and jade at his waist, and a scimitar with a black tiger head handle on it, and a thick curled beard under his chin, with a chill from the desert, his figure was tall and clear.

Although he was only in his twenties, he sat there, revealing a palpitating and surrendering momentum on his body, which made people dare not doubt.

"Yi Lijin is sure that Li Jing only dispatched 150,000 soldiers and horses to invade the grassland this time, and there are actually 30,000 boy scouts plus 100,000 village soldiers? There are only 20,000 real soldiers? One of Rick's eyes widened suddenly, and a chill was pressing.

The Khitan envoy with a shiny and bald head smiled and said: "King Huishatuo, then Li Jing is indeed extremely arrogant, we have received accurate news, Li Jing not only sent 30,000 elites this time, but he will also personally lead this army of soldiers and horses to invade the grassland." Li Jing is very arrogant, and has already issued a military order to attack my Khitan Khan tent with this miscellaneous army of soldiers and horses. ”

Rick pinched his chin and thought in his heart.

"Husband, Li Jing has always been careful with his soldiers, how can he only use 20,000 light cavalry plus 100,000 village soldiers and 30,000 boy scouts to go deep into the grassland and attack the Khitan Khan's tent? Be careful that this is Li Jing's trick, and beware of Li Jing's plan to attack the east and west, and divert the tiger from the mountain. Liu, who was sitting on one side, was dressed in a white fox fur robe, dignified and elegant.

"Madame's meaning, I don't think that Li Jing's dispatch to the grassland is fake, but he is just pretending to be a momentum, but he actually wants to lead us to the grassland. And then Li Jing's soldiers attacked my Shatuo? Li Keyong asked with a frown, if Li Jing attacked the Khitan at this time, it would not be an accident. After all, Li Jing had fought with the Khitan many times before, and Li Jing also made a plan to combine the weak with the strong, secretly supporting the Khitan Khan to fight with the Shili family, which made the Khitan once in civil strife, and the strength was very weak, not only lost the land of western Liao, but even the lower reaches of the Western Liao River, and the eastern part of the Khitan grassland.

Now that the Khitan has finally ended the civil strife, and defeated the Yinshan Tatars and Xixi who were attached to Li Jing, it has posed a great threat to Li Jing's rear. At this time, Li Jing sent troops to the Khitan, which was reasonable. But what is unreasonable is that Li Jing only used 20,000 elite cavalry, but dispatched 100,000 village soldiers and transferred 30,000 boy scouts to the battle, which makes people a little confused.

If Li Jing mobilizes 100,000 elites, or even dispatches 60,000 elite cavalry like he did last time he went south to Hebei, then it is convincing. But now Li Jing's troop lineup is so weird. Relying on these horses, Li Keyong really didn't believe that Li Jing could defeat the Khitan, but might be killed by the Khitan.

But if it is said that this is Li Jing's plan to attack the east and west, and divert the tiger from the mountain, the real current refers to the Khitan fighting Shatuo, and it is inevitably too simple, such a straightforward strategy can be seen by anyone, is it that Li Jing looks down on him Li Keyong so much, and treats him as a fool?

The Khitan envoy said loudly: "King, my family is out of the sword, Li Jing sent troops this time, there are two possibilities, one is that Li Jing is really arrogant, and plans to invade my grassland with these 150,000 people. Second, this is just a false trick by Li Jing, and the real goal means something else. But no matter which possibility it is, this road of soldiers and horses will be real, even if it is just a false move, at least seven or eight points must be made. Therefore, we are away from the meaning of Sumire, it is better for us to join forces, no matter whether Li Jing really sends troops or fake troops, let's eat his 150,000 horses in one bite, even if we can't let Li Jing break his muscles and bones, we can cut off a few fingers of him. ”

Liu Shi said coldly: "But if Li Jing really pointed his sword at me Shatuo, then my Shatuo sent troops to the grassland, wouldn't it just give Li Jing an opportunity?" ”

The Khitan envoy continued: "The accurate information we have obtained shows that Li Jing not only personally led this army and horses, but also Guo Chongtao and Liu Rengong, who surrendered to Li Jing last time, are also among the soldiers and horses this time. In addition, among the 100,000 township soldiers, there are at least more than 10,000 township soldiers, who were captured after the Battle of the Northern Era. ”

Bang!

Li Ke slammed his fist the case, revealing the bruises on his forehead.

In the First World War in the north, Shatuo soldiers were killed and wounded innumerably, and many were captured at the end of the year, and the most Lu was taken to Liaodong in Dengzhou by Li Jing. He never thought that these warriors of the Shatuo clan would now give Li Jing their lives to fight. What made him even more angry were Guo Chongtao and Liu Rengong. When Liu Rengong ran to him like a lost dog, he took him in, but he turned around and betrayed him. There is also Guo Chongtao, how much he trusts him, although he joined Shatuo not long ago, he awarded him the rank of Ma Bu Fan Han Commander and promoted him to the position of deputy marshal in the army second only to him. But Guo Chongtao actually secretly communicated with Li Jing and betrayed him, resulting in the defeat of the military capital and the defeat of Yizhou.

Li Cunxin, who was in a trance, was awakened by this loud noise, and then immediately realized that his opportunity had come.

He strode out of the ranks and said in a loud voice: "My lord, Guo Chongtao and Liu Rengong are two traitors, and the children hate to do it. The child is not talented, especially to the adult to ask for war, please pull a soldier and horse to the child, the child is willing to go north to the grassland, personally cut off the head of Guo Liu and the two thieves, and dedicate it to the adult. ”

Li Keyong was very satisfied with Li Cunxin's statement, and immediately made up his mind: "Guo Liu Er's traitors must be eliminated, this is a great opportunity, as long as it happens, we can not only get rid of Guo Liu Er's thieves, but also capture Li Jing's dog thieves alive in one fell swoop, and even bring back nearly 20,000 of my Shatuo warriors." ”

He fought many battles with Li Jing, and Sha Tuo rarely won the battle. This time, Li Jing dared to go deep into the grassland with only tens of thousands of elites, which made Li Keyong very tempted. If Li Jing can be captured alive or killed directly, it will be a fatal blow to the great enemy Qin army. Even if you can't kill Li Jing, if you can defeat him, you can bring back the more than 10,000 Shatuo soldiers. You must know that although the Shatuo people are strong, there are very few real Shatuo people. More than 10,000 Shatuo warriors, which are extremely needed for Li Keyong and the entire Shatuo clan.

However, Yanmen Town is fundamental, and this cannot be ignored. After thinking about it, Li Keyong decided to send his uncle Li Quanzhong, who had just returned with his father, as the main general, to lead 20,000 horses to the grassland and join forces with the Khitan, preparing to eat Li Jing's troops and horses.

As for Li Cunxin, Li Keyong still didn't let him go north after the worst of his time, but in order to reward his loyalty, Li Keyong reappointed him and made him the Marquis of Du Yu of Li Siyuan's rampage. When Li Siyuan heard this appointment, his heart was shocked, and he almost couldn't help jumping out to oppose it. However, after glancing at Li Cunxin, he gritted his teeth and held back.

After Li Youjin died in battle and Guo Chongtao betrayed, in the Shatuo army, several generals with heavy troops were Li Siyuan, Li Sizhao, Kang Junli, Li Cunzhang, and Li Kexiu. He and Li Cunxin do not have a good relationship, and Li Keyong is willing to know the Tao. But at this time, Li Keyong also specially appointed Li Cunxin to serve in the capital, and he still served as the Marquis of Du Yu, who was in charge of military law, which was a bit subtle.

Perhaps Guo Chongtao's betrayal last time made Li Keyong start to have some defensive suspicions against his generals, and it may be because of this that he deliberately sent Li Cunxin, who was at odds with him, to his army. If he directly opposes it, he is afraid that this suspicion between father and son will really be confirmed.

Although Li Siyuan held back at the last moment, he couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion in his heart. For Sha Tuo and Li Ke to fight hard, but in the end it was exchanged for a father-son jealousy, this feeling made him feel uneasy, and all kinds of tastes contained in his heart, like a stalk in his throat, as if lost.
