The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 409
"Your Highness, why did you throw Brother Xue Rengui into Huotouying as Huotoujun?" Yuchi Baolin asked Li Chengqian with a puzzled expression.

"Don't you think that if the Huotou army can't get on the stage?" Li Chengqian asked Yuchi Baolin with a smile.

"You are right, Your Highness. The Huotou army is for cooking water and cooking. Isn't brother Xue Rengui overqualified when he gets there?" Yuchi Baolin nodded and said to Li Chengqian.

"Soldiers are cunning, and only rare soldiers can reap unexpected results. Do you know why the second master Guan in the Three Kingdoms period killed Hua Xiong while warming wine?" Li Chengqian asked with a smile.

"That is Guan Erye's high martial arts skills, with a Qinglong Yanyue Saber in his palm, and his unstoppable courage." Yuchi Baolin said without hesitation.

After all, Yuchi Baolin has read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms edited by Li Chengqian, and she is really familiar with the plots such as Warming the Wine and Cutting Huaxiong Three Heroes and Lu Bu.

After hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled and asked Qin Huaidao: "You also think like him that Guan Erye warmed the wine and killed Huaxiong because of Guan Erye's strong martial arts?"

Qin Huaidao nodded after thinking for a while, after all, he also thought so in his heart.Naturally there will be no other opinions.

Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly, and then said: "Warming wine and killing Hua Xiong is not only because of Guan Erye's high martial arts skills, the most important thing is that Hua Xiong underestimated the enemy."

"After all, Second Master Guan was just a horse archer at the time, how could Hua Xiong take him seriously? And because of this, Second Master Guan was able to kill him with one blow."

"If the two sides fight normally, although Hua Xiong will lose in the end, but Guan Erye may not be able to take the lead within a hundred moves."

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Qin Huaidao and Yuchi Baolin couldn't help thinking.After all, this is something they never considered.

After a long time, Qin Huaidao said, "Your Highness, you mean to let Brother Xue Rengui catch you by surprise at a critical moment?"

Li Chengqian nodded after hearing this, and then said to Qin Huaiyu: "This cross-sea conquest is very important for Xue Rengui. It's just that if you can't cut a jade, you can't make a weapon. Xue Rengui must go through this experience before he can grow into the new generation of Tang Dynasty. .”

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao couldn't help being surprised.They never thought that Li Chengqian's expectation of Xue Rengui was so high.

The commander-in-chief of the three armies is not comparable to a general who charges into battle, let alone a general led by a four-elephant guard.

That requires resourcefulness and bravery. It can be said that Datang can afford the marshal of the three armies. Apart from Qin Qiong and Li Jing, there is no other person to be found.

"Now the big brother is getting more and more mysterious. Let Xue Rengui be the leader of the fire. Instead, let us two brothers command the White Tiger Guard." Li Zhi said to Li Chengqian with a displeased expression on his face.

"What do you mean, kid, you don't want to command the White Tiger Guard anymore? If that's the case, why don't you go to the Huotou army?" Li Chengqian said to Li Zhi with a smile.

"Old Ten, just now you said that there is a problem with the number of war horses. I don't know if you have made it clear now. Forget it, Brother Ninth, let me go there myself." Li Zhi turned around and walked out of the camp while talking.

On the contrary, Li Shen, the tenth old man, didn't know what happened for a while, and looked at Li Chengqian and Li Zhi who had fled away with a confused face.

……

"Your Highness, why are you here? Do you have something to tell your subordinates?" Xue Rengui, who was in the Tianzi Camp of the Huotou Army, saluted Li Chengqian.

"Today, the king came to see you with something to explain. Tomorrow, the king will leave first. If there is any unexpected situation on the road, please remember to be cautious." Li Chengqian confessed to Xue Rengui.

"Your Highness, there is something unclear about this subordinate. Now that this subordinate is a Huotou army, it seems that he has no chance to charge forward?" Xue Rengui said to Li Chengqian.

"I understand what you mean, but you have to remember what I said. Your Huotou Army's Tianzi Battalion is different. It can even be said that you are the front of the whole army."

"At that time, the military adviser will definitely send someone to pass an order to you, asking you to be responsible for paving the way for the army to break through." Li Chengqian said.

Xue Rengui nodded sharply after hearing this, and then said to Li Chengqian: "Don't worry, Your Highness, even if you let your subordinates cook, you will eat all the three armies with red faces."

Li Chengqian saw that Xue Rengui's tone of voice was not prevarication and flattery, but sincere.This inevitably made Li Chengqian no longer worried.

After all, today is not as good as it used to be, and Xue Rengui's military service in history has suffered various setbacks.Being able to enter the Huotou Army is already a blessing for me.

But now Xue Rengui is Li Chengqian's close guard.The commander-in-chief's White Tiger Guard rate is even more elite among the elite.

So Li Chengqian was really worried that Xue Rengui couldn't think about it.If that's the case, a generation will be decadent because of this.

……

That night, Li Chengqian led the Four Elephant Guards to set off early.What's more, he chose to travel by night and lie down by day, heading directly towards Youzhou.

Because the four elephant guards are all cavalry, the marching speed is naturally very fast.It only took more than ten days to enter the border of Youzhou.

That night, Li Chengqian led the Four Elephant Guards to set up camp in the north of Youzhou.This place is very close to Xi Country.

"Have all the troops been hidden?" Li Chengqian asked Qin Huaidao and others inside the large tent of the Chinese army.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, according to past habits, all brothers have been hidden in the forest." Qin Huaidao said to Li Chengqian.

"Has Xiangli Wentian's equipment been delivered?" Li Chengqian nodded and asked again.

"It hasn't arrived yet, but the Canglong team has sent back the news. The delivery team has arrived in Youzhou, and it will be delivered by tomorrow evening at the latest." Qin Huaidao said.

Li Chengqian nodded after hearing this, and then asked Zhao Tingxuan: "Can the ghost team send back the news?"

"The Ghost Squad has now entered the State of Xi. Judging from the news sent back, the State of Xi has indeed begun to reorganize the army. It is estimated that it is preparing to support Goguryeo." Zhao Tingxuan said to Li Chengqian.

"Sure enough, as I expected, it seems that the northern countries have united to annex my Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures." Li Chengqian said with a smile on his face.

At this time, the boss Mingyu walked into the Chinese military tent.After saluting to Li Chengqian, he said: "Your Highness, this is an urgent secret letter sent by Yanyang."

Li Chengqian did not expect that Yanyang would send a letter at this time.Could it be that as soon as his front foot left, someone couldn't hold back?
Li Chengqian took the letter and opened it, his expression became very gloomy.He actually slapped the secret letter on the table.At the same time, he said with a murderous look on his face, "You're courting death."
