Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 143 Confirmation

Li Shan squatted aside embarrassingly, looking at Li Kai and Yuchi Baolin's distressed appearance. Both of them had been on the battlefield, but they were also bluffed just now.

Several corpses were neatly placed on the table, and each corpse was stripped naked and disemboweled... Li Kai could even recall that next to each corpse, they were neatly piled up... Now that I think about it , It should be the heart, liver, spleen and lungs.

It is the pursuit of many medical students to be able to dissect a general teacher without restraint... Li Shan still remembers that a senior in his previous life specially became a forensic doctor in order to have more contact with corpses.

"Brother Demou..."

Li Kai, who has always been prudent, grabbed Li Shan's shoulders, his voice weak and weak.

For more than a month, Li Kai sighed and sighed day and night, and every time he thought of his friend, it was probably because of that letter that he went to Jizhou, surrounded by heavy siege, and his life and death were unknown.

After learning of Li Shan's toss in Hebei, Li Kai and Yuchi Baolin were ordered by the King of Qin to go south quickly. They rushed for three days to Shandong Road, crossed the river to Weizhou, and finally arrived at Guantao by detour. They were exhausted but energetic all the way. Huan, I didn't expect to see this scene after arriving at the destination.

Li Shan handed over the towel and jokingly said, "Brother Demou, don't worry, I won't eat the hearts of the dead."

"Hearts and livers need to be taken from living people, cooked and eaten."

Li Kai couldn't hold back and retched again.

Li Shan looked at Ling Jing who was walking over speechlessly, turned his head and scolded: "Who is guarding the gate..."

Halfway through the scolding, Li Shan could only shut up. The person guarding the door today is Guo Pu, who is the personal guard of the Li family, so naturally he would not stop Li Kai.

After some confusion, everyone sat down in the backyard of the county government office.

"Duke Yuan committed suicide here?" Li Kai, who had recovered, asked in a low voice.

At this moment, everyone is still waiting for Tian Liuan, Ling Jing, Su Dingfang, Li Daoxuan, Xue Zhong, Liu Jun and others are whispering something, Yuchi Baolin and Li Kai are standing in the corner, Li Kai grabs the just Li Shan came back after taking a shower.

"Uh... it's here." Li Shan said casually, "When a person is about to die, he speaks kindly. Say goodbye to the elders in Guanzhong without shame."

Yuchi Baolin was dubious, but Li Kai didn't believe it at all... He knew that his good friend seemed trustworthy, but sometimes he could go to heaven if he told a lie.

"The battle in Hebei was beyond our expectations." Li Kai thought for a while before saying, "Huiren encountered several dangers this time, but they all turned out to be safe, and he even gained military merits. His Highness entrusted me with a message for my brother. He will return to Beijing someday. , there must be a banquet to wait."

Li Shan smiled and cupped his hands. This is what should be done, and it is also logical. He rescued Li Daoxuan and Xue Zhong, and stirred up wind and rain in Shandong... Li Shimin will not miss it.

But this is also unreasonable... Will Li Shimin really take care of himself in the possible future with a double-faced Pei family in Hedong?
Unless my plan half a month ago achieved its goal flawlessly...

Li Shan secretly pulled the handle, walked aside and asked in a low voice: "But entered the East Palace?"

"Sure enough, it was Huairen's plan." Li Kai looked at his friend with suspicious eyes,

He discussed it with his father Li Keshi afterwards, and vaguely felt it from the many orders and instructions of the King of Qin.

"What does it have to do with my little brother?" Li Shan sneered, "It's just that Brother Demou said that the King of Qin will host a banquet just now... That's why I thought of it."

"When he was still in Shandong Road, that man often made friends with the crown prince Xima Wei Xuancheng... Wei Xuancheng's wife was also from the Wenxi Pei family."

Li Kai suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Hui Ren's thoughts turned quickly, that man has already entered the East Palace, preparing himself for the crown prince."

"No wonder." Li Shan's heart that he had been carrying for a long time finally returned to his stomach. This time when he returned to Beijing...even if his face was torn apart, he still had...at least the certainty that he would not be swept away without a sound.

"You kid is standing in the corner, what are you doing sneakily?!"

In this room, the only one who dares to reprimand Li Shan like this is the old man Ling Jing...Lately, Li Shan is not pleasing to the eyes. The old man announced that his family will move to Chang'an.
Only the granddaughter was silent, and there was a rare smile on her face.

Li Shan walked over with a smile, "Uncle Ling thinks that the envoy from Prince Qin's residence has arrived, so he doesn't need to pay attention to XX anymore?"

Ling Jing's complexion changed, and he opened his mouth to scold. Luckily, Li Kai hurried forward to salute. He had to be told by Li Shimin that the most important person in Guantao City was not Li Shan, Tian Liu'an, or King Huaiyang, but this Zeng Once urged Dou Jiande to move his army to attack Ling Jing in Hedong.

"Danyang house brother of the Li family in Longxi..." Ling Jing glanced at Li Shan, "Are you commensurate with that kid's brother?"

Li Kai coughed twice, "Huairen is both benevolent and righteous, the boy respects his benevolence and righteousness, we make friends and call him brothers."

Tian Liu'an, the general manager of Weizhou, strode into the backyard, except for Li Daoxuan and Ling Jing, the rest stepped forward to salute.

"Okay, Manager Tian has arrived."

Li Kai was a little surprised, Li Shan only greeted, Li Daoxuan, the king of Huaiyang who had been silent all this time, got up, Xue Zhong and Liu Jun who were whispering all stopped.

As the envoy sent by the King of Qin, Li Kai stood at the head. The crowd in front of him was Li Daoxuan, the king of Huaiyang, and Tian Liuan, the general manager of Weizhou, stood behind him. However, Li Shan, the marching commander, stood half a step back from Tian Liuan. The official Xue Zhong was Xue Ju's nephew, and he stood behind Li Shan without complaint.

"The battle in Weizhou will be presided over by Tian Liu'an, with King Huaiyang as his deputy. Mr. Ling and Huairen are also invited to plan."

After a few simple words, the room fell into silence. From the official position of the imperial court, Li Daoxuan, the general commander of Hebei Province, was the supreme commander of all Tang troops in Hebei Province.

However, inside the Palace of King Qin, Li Daoxuan, who was leading the army independently for the first time, was defeated, and it was obviously difficult for him to be alone. Li Shimin trusted Tian Liuan and other veterans in the battlefield more.

"It should be so." Li Shan used his eyes to stop Tian Liu'an's refusal, "Brother Daoxuan wants to avenge the hatred of the country and the family, but there is not far to learn from the past."

"That's right." Ling Jing paced over, "Liu Heitai is very cunning, if he attacks, he must be cautious, and don't send troops out of anger. The King of Qin presides over the overall situation with Tian Liu'an as the leader, and King Huaiyang uses his hatred as his deputy, which is in line with the art of war. "

"Stop rambling." Li Shan interrupted, "Qi Shanxing and Cheng Mingzhen haven't heard anything yet. Brother Demou was dispatched by the King of Qin. This time he will definitely bring elite soldiers to help."

Li Daoxuan nodded slightly, and looked at Li Kai, "Who is leading the troops across the river in Eastern Shaanxi?"

"Wang Junkuo led five hundred fine cavalry and five hundred infantry, crossed the Yellow River from Wushui County, Bozhou, and went around fifty miles outside Guan County."

Li Shan spread out the map quickly, but in fact he was the only one who needed to read the map, and the others were either locals or familiar with the place names and terrains.

Guan County is located in the southeast of Guantao County. It is in two directions with Yuancheng and Wei County. With a thousand elites, if there is no big disturbance, it should not receive too much attention.

"Wang Junkuo?"

Xue Zhong, who was behind him, introduced in a low voice: "Bingzhou native, born in Wagang, made great contributions in the Luoyang war last year, and at the beginning of the year he conquered Liu Heita with the King of Qin. After the war, he was transferred to the military department of Eastern Shaanxi Province."

Another one from Wagangzhai... Li Shan smacked his lips, feeling that Li Mi had practiced a peerless martial art, the wedding dress magic... and then passed it all on to Li Shimin.

Li Shan pondered for a long time before turning his head and asking: "Uncle Ling, are the enemy troops tired?"

"It's been a long time to attack Guantao, and morale is very depressed, but the looting of Yuancheng... Now is not the time to send troops." Ling Jing said a lot, and finally said: "Wait for the scouts to report back, I don't know what happened to Ma Zhou's side. Already!"

At this moment, Yuan Zhulin's loud announcement came from outside, "The chief manager of Weizhou, Cheng Mingzhen, sent his personal guard to report.
