The host is red and black, and the system can only chirp

Sect Leader Xi asked Hong Funu leisurely, "Could it be that Liu Wenjing, the former magistrate of Jinyang County, was ordered to go on a diplomatic mission?"

Hong Fu Nu: How well do you know the Tang Guogong Mansion? You can see everything clearly, it's just... really scary.

.

When Hong Fu Nu came to the border town for the first time, she was indeed accompanied by Liu Wenjing.

On behalf of the Li family, Liu Wenjing went north to pay a visit to Shibi Khan, bringing with him Li Yuan's handwritten letter and generous gifts.

The content of Li Yuan's letter was extremely humble, emphasizing the word "启", which is only used by subordinates to address their monarchs.

In summary, Li Yuan intended to tell Shibi Khan that he was going to march south to fight for the world; he promised that after the success, the population and land would belong to the Li family, and all the gold, silver and treasures would belong to the Turks.

The two teams that set out from Jinyang were supposed to separate in Wuyuan County. Hong Fu stayed in the border town to wait for an opportunity, while Liu Wenjing went north to seek help from the Turks.

It was a coincidence that Hong Fu Nu and others had just arrived in Wuyuan when the Turks, who had been quiet for nearly a year, took advantage of the opportunity when Master Xi was away to attack.

Liu Wenjing thought he had a chance to go directly north with the Turkic army.

No one expected Li Jing to be so fierce in battle.

Not only did the border troops not defend the city in an orderly manner, they also did not clear the countryside. Li Jing led his troops directly out of the city, and the border cavalry directly collided with the Jue cavalry in a military formation... The war ended unexpectedly.

Anyway, Liu Wenjing personally stayed in Wuyuan County, but he still didn't understand how the battle was fought, and he didn't understand why Li Jing won so easily.

You should know that before the "Siege of Yanmen", the Turks had gone south to plunder countless times and had always been able to do so as if they were in an empty land.

No matter how unbelievable it was for Liu Wenjing, the result was that although Li Jing had fewer soldiers, he beheaded five hundred and captured countless war horses; less than fifty border soldiers died in the battle, which was equivalent to one for ten.

Those are Turkic cavalry!

Liu Wenjing made a prompt decision and gave up going north.

.

After the bloody robbery in the 11th year of Daye, the surviving border residents wished they could eat the flesh and blood of the Turks alive.

Without the Xi clan leader, the border residents could not organize effective resistance and could only endure and be forced to bear the suffering.

Who can blame the Grand Master for not being afraid of losing face and being willing to guard the border?

The six border counties quickly organized an elite army with unimaginable efficiency.

.

Liu Wenjing knew very well that if the Li family still sought help from the Turks at this time, they would be openly making enemies with the Xi clan leader.

When the reputation of Grand Master Xi was spreading throughout the Central Plains, she brazenly issued two statements - one was that it was strictly forbidden to kill the people; the other was that if anyone in the Central Plains dared to serve foreigners as a dog, she would personally help him do so!

What is the accomplishment of Sect Leader Xi?

No one dared to think so.

The first time that Sect Leader Xi left the border town, he not only easily destroyed Zhang Jincheng's army, but also organized a public trial and chopped off 112 heads.

The nobles in Guanzhong often discussed that after all, Leader Xi was born into a commoner family and did not know etiquette, so he acted without restraint.

To put it bluntly, everyone is afraid.

Is there anything that Sect Leader Xi can't do?

If what Patriarch Xi meant by fulfilling the mission was to personally deliver the person to Shibi Khan of the Eastern Turks... Liu Wenjing felt suffocated just thinking about it.

.

Without having seen the might of the border troops, one always has illusions.

Make friends with distant countries and attack nearby ones. The Xi clan is mainly sandwiched between the Turks and Taiyuan Dao... Duke Tang and Shibi Khan have successfully formed an alliance. When the Li clan rebelled, the border troops would not dare to act rashly, right?

.

After witnessing Li Jing fighting, Liu Wenjing understood that the Xi clan leader only dared to speak to the world based on his strength.

Liu Wenjing did not dare to draw a conclusion easily about the outcome of the confrontation between the Turks and the border troops; but he was confident of victory in attacking the Li clan, which had not yet officially started an uprising.

Liu Wenjing is not blind.

The Xi clan leader's rule over the border people has reached a terrifying level where he can control them as if he were using his own fingers. From the moment he entered Loufan County, he saw people who were completely different from those in the chaotic times.

.

If Liu Wenjing had experienced modern times, he would have understood that this was the mass production movement - do it yourself and have enough food and clothing. The troops fought in wartime and farmed in their spare time.

From the general principles and guidelines of the "Border Town Wartime Management Regulations".

.

After witnessing Li Jing win a battle out of nowhere, Liu Wenjing completely gave up hope.

.

Liu Wenjing regretted not listening to the advice of Mr. Li Er.

Regarding this matter, Master Li Er and his father Li Yuan had completely opposite opinions.

Liu Wenjing defected to Li Yuan, originally for Li Shimin; this was the first time that he did not believe in Li Shimin's decision, but instead supported Li Yuan's idea.

.

Hong Fu Nu didn't know how Liu Wenjing would report to Li Yuan when he returned. She had been staying in the border town for a long time. When she finally made up her mind to leave her master, Liu Wenjing was no longer in the Duke of Tang's Mansion.

I don’t know where to lobby again.

.

Of course, Sect Leader Xi would not make things difficult for his own people.

No matter who Hong Fu had been worshipped by, now... she is Li Jing's wife.

Sect Leader Xi smiled, turned to look at Li Jing and told him earnestly: "Sister-in-law was able to escape safely, you don't have to worry about it, I will repay Li Shimin's favor."

.

Li Yuan failed to attract reinforcements... Without the one thousand horses and two thousand Turkic cavalry sent by Shibi Khan, is it impossible to rebel?

If this is true, then... the Li family should exit the stage of history as soon as possible.

According to the estimation of Sect Leader Xi, the difficulty would only increase a little at the beginning, but with Li Shimin around, it wouldn't be a big problem.

.

Sect Leader Xi’s concern for the Li family ended here; she cared more about the daily life of the border troops.

"How were the soldiers' blind dates? Were there many who were attracted to each other?"

Professional soldiers in ancient times were completely different from those in civilized society. Nowadays, few women would be willing to marry a soldier.

"Attracting each other"... Seeing the clan leader managing the border town with ease, and always solving problems with a stroke of genius. Li Jing always believed that the clan leader was unfathomable, so she always prepared something unexpected.

General Li replied as if he had a toothache: "It's better than expected."

He was about to report in detail when he was interrupted unexpectedly.

.

Upon hearing that Sect Leader Xi was coming to Wuyuan in person, the commander Zhang Changxun rushed to the military camp in a hurry.

He stood about five or six feet away, cupped his hands and said loudly, "Master, the results are gratifying!"

Li Jing was quite considerate and took his wife's hand and stepped aside to make it easier for Zhang Changxun to report.

Zhang Changxun stepped forward happily, first wishing everyone a happy new year, then thanking Patriarch Xi for the new year gift, and then he praised General Li for his work from commanding the army to fighting the wars to caring for the soldiers.

Zhang Changxun happily congratulated General Li: "Xiao Yicheng's soldiers are getting married. General Li is really kind."

.

There are now nearly 20,000 troops stationed in Wuyuan County.

On a daily basis, there are 18,000 soldiers who are responsible for garrisoning and guarding the border in Wuyuan County.

Under the planning of Sect Leader Xi, reclamation was not just about reclaiming wasteland. She referred to the modern production and construction corps... set up farms, ranches and other units, tried large-scale crop rotation and intercropping, and vigorously developed the breeding industry.

Zhang Changxun guarded Wuyuan Commandery and governed three counties. He was overwhelmed by the earth-shaking changes brought about by Sect Leader Xi.

Zhang Tongshou was extremely annoyed at the moment. He bowed with fear and trepidation: "I dare not leave Wuyuan without permission... How can I do this? How can the clan leader distribute annual gifts to me?"

Wuyuan County currently has more than 6,000 officially established charging horses, which does not include private horses, pack horses, draft horses and other consumables.

The armored heavy cavalry actually has 2,000 troops, and Master Xi's goal is 3,000.

Zhang Tongshou knew very well the combat power of 3,000 heavily armed cavalrymen.

The border troops at that time were absolutely invincible!

Was he crazy at first? He surrendered only after being threatened by Xi Zongzhu, and he was very reluctant.

When Zhang Tongshou woke up in the middle of the night, he stamped his feet in regret.

Who would have thought of this?

It doesn't matter that Sect Leader Xi is a natural martial artist, but his ability to govern a place is more terrifying than his talent for martial arts.
