Chapter 812 Brothers Meet
Ten miles outside the city of Juzhou in the southwest, Li Ji had already withdrawn his 20 troops to station in Jiannan Road to recuperate. The [-] troops were guarding a city full of thunder, and being unable to enter was as awkward as eating with a stone in your mouth.

Therefore, leaving [-] to defend against the enemy's counterattack, and withdrawing [-] will also reduce the burden.

These days, Li Ji has also been thinking hard about countermeasures. He has been using Thunderbolt, but he never thought that one day the enemy would use this method against him. It's a thorny hedgehog, there's no way to start.

"Marshal, Chang'an urgently replied."

The courier came in and delivered a reply letter from the emperor.

Li Ji took it apart and looked at it carefully, and smiled wryly in his heart. His Majesty would not let the troops retreat, and he had no support, let alone a clever plan.

Li Ji, who had followed Li Er for many years, knew in his heart that it was a disgrace for the country to be taken away from a city, and the emperor's character must be avenged.

The urgent report I sent to the emperor at the beginning said that it was recommended to stay in the army, and most of them retreated as a plan, because there were too many casualties in the storm, and Datang could not afford to lose.

Although the emperor's reply letter did not say that he would attack by force, the meaning of not retreating between the lines has been vividly expressed on the paper, only that he did not say at all costs. This is the overlord emperor's mind, the sacrifice of destroying the country and hegemony is worth it .

It's a pity, it's a pity that he is a general and not a prince. Li Ji, who loves soldiers like sons, closed his eyes and sighed.

"Marshal, Master Hou of Zhongnan Academy also brought you a secret letter." The messenger handed over another letter.

Li Ji was overjoyed when he heard that, Bai Fan was always quick-witted when everyone was at a loss, this time it might be another trick up his sleeve.

After glancing at the messenger, Li Ji shouted: "Is there any secret letter and don't take it out together? Is there any more?"

"Report to Commander-in-Chief, no more."

"Then step down and go down to receive the reward."

Opening Bai Fan's secret letter, Li Ji was a little disappointed. It turned out that Bai Fan had no way to defeat the enemy, but he recommended a disciple to come to practice, and only said that he would take care of him.

Li Ji didn't pay much attention to it at first, and just helped each other out of friendship.

One month later, Li Mingxin came to Daying to report, and Li Ji arranged for him to be the commander of the Chinese army, in charge of military Chinese books, but this new student bluntly said that he had a strategy to defeat the enemy, which surprised Li Ji.

"The student is from the Li family in Longxi, and he is a blood brother to Li Xinzhong, the ruler of Tubo. He is willing to persuade his brother to surrender for the commander." Li Mingxin saluted.

When Li Ji heard this, he was startled. Why is this student from the Li family in Longxi?Jane is so confused, it's fine if you didn't send a capable disciple at this time, why send a person with doubtful identity?
In fact, Li Ji didn't know that this was exactly Bai Fan's way of testing his disciples. Li Mingxin had been a good student for three years in school, but no one could see through his true heart. It would be good to use this opportunity to prove his true heart .

"Oh? It turned out to be from a famous family.

Since it was sent by Jian Zhi, I have no doubts about your ability and loyalty, but I will also live with Tubo Li Xinzhong. In the past two months, I have not taken advantage of him. Hard as iron, it is impossible to surrender.

Your good intentions make me know, but you are Jian Zhi's disciple, and I need to be responsible for your safety when you come to the army, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Jian Zhi. "

Li Mingxin said solemnly: "Since joining the army, life and death depend on wealth and honor, so the horse leather shroud should be an honor.

The commander-in-chief should treat me equally, and should not treat me differently because of the relationship between the teacher and the teacher, otherwise the students will not be able to truly experience the military.

The students know that lack of talent and learning may not be able to convince my brother, but it is also necessary for the military to go to the city to investigate. At least my brother will not do anything to me. If I can find out the weak points in the city of Yizhou, it will be an opportunity. "

Li Ji nodded in praise and said that he was born in a famous family with extraordinary temperament. After pondering over and over again, he agreed to this risky strategy. As for whether to explain to Bai Fan if something happened, Bai Fan might have expected it a long time ago.

The garrison at the head of the city of Weizhou saw a man and a horse coming out of the Datang camp, and immediately shot them with bows and arrows, and the people came by name.

Li Mingxin claimed that he was a friend of the ruler of Tubo, and asked the guard to report.

The general did not dare to neglect, and urgently reported to Li Xinzhong in the city.

Li Xinzhong was physically and mentally exhausted from the battle plan for several days, but it was inevitable that he would not be able to travel back and forth in time when the battle started, so Li Xinzhong was temporarily stationed in the small Xunzhou City, and did not return to Luoxie City, the capital of the Tubo Kingdom. When Datang retreated in spite of difficulties, he would go back by himself.

"Hey, the Tubo country is weak, and I can't even find a single person. If there are one or two famous generals, I don't have to defend the Tang Dynasty personally. Then Li Ji is an old fox, and others may not be able to fight against him. .” Li Xinzhong said to himself.

"Report, I would like to inform the lord that there is a Tang man outside the city named Li Mingxin who claims to be your friend and asks to see him."

Who?
Li Xinzhong stood up in surprise, did he hear correctly, Li Mingxin?My second brother?

Didn't it mean that he followed the thief Bai Fan to the academy to study?How did you come to the battlefield?Could it be Bai Fan's conspiracy?Or is it Li Ji's conspiracy?
I came to the top of the city to have a look in person, and it turned out to be the second brother I hadn't seen for a few years, good boy, good to be here, great, timely rain.

Li Xinzhong was overjoyed, he gave pillows when he fell asleep, and he was complaining about the lack of talents, so someone would send them to his door.

He personally went out of the city to welcome Li Mingxin into the city. Li Xinzhong welcomed his own brother very grandly.

The two brothers reunited again, and they were no longer equal to each other, so I really felt a different emotion.

"Second brother, how are you all these years?" Suddenly, he didn't know how to speak, Li Xinzhong subconsciously asked this sentence.

"Well, it's okay, the gentlemen and brothers in the academy are very kind to me." Li Mingxin looked at his elder brother carefully, trying to see something.

"What about Bai Fan? I heard that you have worshiped him as your teacher? How did he treat you?" Li Xinzhong asked.

"Master is also very kind to me. As the world has said, he is really the No.1 teacher in the world. Teaching students according to their aptitude is very good to every student. It may be because of my great-grandfather. He often brings me around to give advice. teach."

Grandpa?Hearing these three words, Li Xinzhong was stunned for a while. He had been planning revenge for many years, and he was too busy to talk about his relatives.

"Brother, today I want to ask you something."

"Hehe, you want to ask me if I killed my great-grandfather, right?"

"Yes, is it you?"

Li Xinzhong straightened his body, shook his head and said, "It's not me, you know, that's my great-grandfather too, how could I do it?

At that time, their Qingcheng group had already had the will to die, so how could the Assassin King kill Jia have any way to survive?
Great-grandfather was the most skilled. After assassinating Songtsan Gampo in Tubo, he was powerless and killed by the army.

Me, I want to save him, but I can't save him. "
