Chapter 388 Suizhou Governor
"Brother Sabao, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect things to turn out like this..."
After exiting the Chinese army's tent, Li Tai looked at Yu Wenhu who looked sad and said, although his words were different, his tone was extremely sincere.
Yu Wenhu's expression was still in a daze. After hearing the words, it took a while before he hurriedly waved his hands and shook his head and said: "No, I don't blame Bo Shan. It's just me. I blame myself for not being able to deeply understand the Lord's mind. I'm just obsessed with frivolous things." But he refuses to put his mind to things..."
Li Tai did not deliberately conceal the matter from Yu Wenhu about the true tribe of Xihe Lishi Hu and Liu Ku, but he also did not explain it in too much detail. And Yu Wenhu was not interested in this at all. He was thinking about the miracle of sneak attack on Jinyang. How could he be in the mood to think about moving Jihu, so he simply forgot about it.
But Yuwentai is not as ambitious as Yuwenhu, and can even be said to be too conservative. He probably has not yet gotten over the shadow of the defeat in the Battle of Mangshan, so he seems to be cautious and unable to let go when facing the Eastern Wei Dynasty. Use your hands and feet.
He did not agree with the surprise attack on Jinyang, believing that the risks were not proportional to the rewards, but he was very enthusiastic about using small costs to provoke Gao Huan, and even taught Li Tai many ways to do things in the enemy's rear. Even Li Tai was amazed by the richness of ideas.
Li Tai really doesn't believe it if he says that he doesn't engage in these brainstorming activities. It can be seen that Yu Wentai is still worried about Gao Huan's visit to his hometown in Xiazhou last year, and he has always wanted to take revenge, even if he can't fight. Being near Jinyang City, I am very much looking forward to making the surrounding area of Jinyang a mess.
To complete this task, Yu Wenhu, who had a good eye but a low hand, obviously couldn't do it. Even the entire Western Wei Dynasty couldn't find a more suitable candidate than Li Tai.
Not only because he conquered the Lishi Hu tribe in the previous war, but also because he is the only person who can establish effective control in the Huhuang territory in northern Shaanxi in recent years.
Yuwentai was not satisfied with the harassment of just one shot and ran away, but wanted to create a hidden danger that could trouble Jinyang Bafu for a long time. Then he needed to establish a stable base in northern Shaanxi, and he needed a A wise and courageous candidate. At least for now, no one is more suitable than Li Tai.
Therefore, after some discussions, Yuwentai decided to divide the Shangjun of Dongxia Prefecture and part of Xia Prefecture to establish Suizhou as a domestic base for carrying out this task, and appointed Li Tai as the governor of Suizhou to carry out specific tasks. implementation.
Now that he has made such a decision, no matter how shameless Yu Wentai is, he will not dare to talk about detaining Li Tai's subordinates. Previously, it was because he wanted to entrust the political affairs of Huazhou to Li Tai, so Li Tai also wanted to reciprocate the favor. Hand over your own part.
But now you are not allowed to stay at the base camp, and he is guarding the border state for you. As a result, you let him face the enemy alone. Is this appropriate?
In this case, the matter of Yuwen Hu taking charge of his army was naturally abandoned. These Longyou athletes still followed Li Tai north to guard Suizhou.
"Actually, I also want to apologize to you, Boshan, for failing to live up to your recommendation."
Yu Wenhu clasped his fists towards Li Tai again and said, with a bit of shame in his eyebrows.
He felt a little regretful that he couldn't take over Li Tai's elite cavalry, but to be honest, if he had to go to the barren land of northern Shaanxi and stay there for who knows how long in order to take over this team, Yu Wenhu himself wouldn't know much about it. willing.
Under the protection of his uncle Yu Wentai, he was not worried about the opportunity to gain experience and advance. This time he had to open a new government. His original intention was to form his own team and take over part of the military affairs of the Taiwan government. If he really wanted to go to northern Shaanxi and stay for a few years, The newly added military personnel structure of the Taiwan government has been stabilized, which is not conducive to his development within the Taiwan government.
"People's circumstances are different. I haven't done anything to help Brother Sabao, and Brother Sabao doesn't need to feel that he owes me. When I go to Beizhou, Shili needs to gather together, so I will give Brother Sabao a hundred good horses. ”
Li Tai didn't have as many choices as Yu Wenhu, so he just picked out the food in the basket. He was secretly glad that the plan went so smoothly, so he comforted Yu Wenhu a little. Although a hundred war horses are not a small number, , but it’s nothing compared to his three thousand soldiers.
Yu Wenhu is not a big-hearted guy. Regardless of what he says now, if he really gets nothing, he may feel that he has been dazzled by him in the future and secretly resent him, although this is indeed the case.
"This, this is really... Well, Boshan, what do you want me to say? I have recently been looking for government officials, and I am indeed in need of money, so I will accept it shamelessly. Thank you Boshan for your generous support."
After hearing this, Yu Wenhu's face became happy again, and he said shyly.
The personnel he has come into contact with have not left the Ba Mansion so far, and the path is naturally not as open as that of Li Tai. It was an unexpected blessing to receive the support of a hundred famous Longyou horses. He pieced together a few hundred soldiers to form a team. It is also promising. Although it is not as impressive as Li Tai's three thousand Longyou soldiers, it can still destroy the streets and crowds.
After pondering for a while, Yuwen Hucai then said: "Boshan, you will leave for the town soon, and you must have a lot of things to be busy with. But now that I have free time, I will help you, Boshan, to obtain official ranks and rewards for the generals. , try to get it done before you leave to boost your morale!”
"Thank you so much, Brother Sabao!"
Although these generals would not be given a grain of rice salary by the imperial court and the hegemony even if they obtained official ranks, at least it sounds nice. These guys in Beizhen are often crown princes and generals, and Li Tai's subordinates can also get some general titles. It can make people happy.
Although Yu Wentai has given him the latest arrangement, after all, it is still the decision of the Bafu himself. Li Tai is considered a feudal official after being released. He still has to submit his opinions to the court and the emperor will issue an edict. This matter It's done.
Although they knew that the Eastern Wei Dynasty would attack again, in order to avoid causing panic among the masses, the parade still had to be held, except that the subsequent field hunting matters were omitted to save Shili.
However, Li Tai does not need to participate in the next parade now. He can leave Xianyang directly with his own song, go south to Chang'an, or return directly to Huazhou to wait for departure.
But Li Tai guessed that Yu Wentai felt that there was no hope of annexing his troops, so he didn't plan to waste military rations on them anymore, so he asked him to take his troops and get out quickly, so as not to stay here any longer and be an eyesore.
After all, the daily consumption of so many people and horses is very alarming. It is several times the same number of infantry. It is distressing to feed them for one more day. It is not known how the situation will evolve next. Of course, the limited food and grass must be reserved for the direct troops. .
Although Li Tai was quite dissatisfied with Yu Wentai's behavior of turning heads faster than a monkey, it was already a big surprise for him to be able to retain his army and return to northern Shaanxi as he wished, so he didn't give up. Those who got the advantage and behaved continued to stay here to avoid any further setbacks and become extremely happy and sad. After returning to the camp, they ordered the soldiers to pack their bags and collect three days of rations from the camp before setting off.
He did not choose to return directly to Huazhou, but planned to go to Chang'an for a walk first to see how the personnel industry was doing here and to show off his authority. In previous years, I was always a little wary when I came to Chang'an, and I didn't dare to be too showy or presumptuous, but now I placed my troops outside Chang'an City and asked if they were afraid of these guys in Chang'an.
I don't know if the people of Chang'an are afraid or not, but Li Hu, who is stationed in the north city of Chang'an in Weinan, is really envious.
Looking at the steady stream of knights heading south on the pontoon bridge, Li Hu couldn't help but widen his eyes. He took off his pocket and put it between his ribs. He pressed Li Tai's shoulder and praised: "I had known that the Lord of Hanoi was waiting for the son-in-law of the household." How can I let a kid from another country take advantage of me with such great kindness?"
Li Tai was unhappy when he heard this. These people were all managed by me through hard work. Why do everyone think that I am a freeloader! By the way, I'm mentally criticizing Li Hu. When your son becomes your son-in-law, you must understand the meaning of first come, first served. If you dare to compete with me for the family property, your Ono family will have no future!
After his troops crossed the Wei River, they headed towards Chang'an City in a mighty manner. Of course, they could not enter the city directly, otherwise they would not be able to stop them if they really wanted to rush into the palace, so they could only go around the outer city. Li Hu also sent two generals to accompany him to guide him, and to monitor him and not allow him to wander around.
"Li Kaifu is mighty!"
When the large group of people arrived in the south of Chang'an City, Li Licheng and a dozen other dandies from the capital, who had come to the city after hearing the news, rushed out of the city gate on horseback, waving their arms and cheering to Li Tai who was in front of the group from a distance.
Li Tai ordered the team to continue moving in the direction of Longshouyuan, while he left the group with dozens of soldiers and waited on the side of the road for the arrival of Li Licheng and others.
When the group of people arrived, they all got off their horses and greeted Li Tai with fists in their hands: "I've seen Li Kaifu!"
When Li Tai heard this new title, he couldn't help but smile. He got off his horse and everyone returned the greeting one by one.
Among these young people, there are several members of the Yuan and Wei clans. In terms of official status, they are naturally much higher than Li Tai, but the power in their hands is not the same.
Putting aside the sieve-like Liufang Forbidden Army that has been infiltrated by the Bafu, the total number of troops of the clan kings of the Yuan family may not be as large as what Li Tai has now.
Therefore, when facing Li Tai, these young men from the Yuan and Wei clans also had warm smiles on their faces. For Li Tai, a new military leader who was born in the Li family in Longxi and was about the same age as them, they had to compare with those veteran generals in Beizhen. They are much friendlier.
Li Tai was quite concerned about interacting with these fallen phoenixes before, but now he doesn't need to be so cautious, but he is not very familiar with these people. Except for the sons of the Hai family in Yuan Ji, Li Licheng still needs to take care of the others one by one. He introduced.
Li Licheng was previously a lonely man in Chang'an and was not very active. At the beginning of the year, under Li Tai's recommendation, he served as the Sima of the Kingdom of Guangling Wang Yuanxin. He gradually became more valued by the people in the capital. Now he has waited for such a good opportunity to pretend to be powerful and directly sent him to the throne. All the powerful disciples who could be summoned at once were brought out to admire Li Tai's majesty.
"This Yang Wenli is a subordinate of the Huashan Gong family."
When one of the young men was introduced, Li Tai saw a flash of shyness on Li Licheng's face, and he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. Before, I just asked you to send Yang Kuan back to Beijing. Why does it seem that there is something going on between you two?
The child was infected with influenza A and was nursed and given an injection. Today I will update a chapter. . .
