Chapter 54: Heartbroken

"It's outrageous!" Li Yi returned to the camp and was furious. He threw the candlestick documents on the table aside and roared: "Why is Luo Shixin, that damn guy always so lucky? This was like this last time, and this time it was like this again." He tried all his methods to defeat Luo Shixin, and even spent manpower and material resources to rush to the front line to seize the merits, intending to end the war early and limit Luo Shixin's performance. Unexpectedly, things went against their wishes, the Turks actually came to the door, making him a great achievement that was unparalleled and unmatched. In this mind, he was regretful and hated.

"Wan Che, Wan Jun, what should we do next?"

After venting for a long time, Li Yi recovered and asked his right-hand man as usual.

Xue Wanjun hesitated for a while and said, "The Turkic habits are to escape from a strong person and attack them when they encounter weak persons. If we want to annihilate this group of invading Turks, our troops cannot do it. But if we can use the amazing soldiers under Deputy General Luo that can defeat the Turks, I am sure that we can completely destroy this group of Turks."

"Don't think about it!" Li Yi glared at Xue Wanjun, "I, Li Yi, is the prince of the Tang Dynasty. It is embarrassing to let a guy who is lucky enough to step on his feet. Do you want to help the prince become famous? What a messy idea?"

Xue Wanjun kept silent and felt depressed. Li Yi was narrow-minded and would rather not cooperate with Luo Shixin than cooperate with him. However, the Xue family was deeply favored by Li Yi, but he had to work hard for him.

Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun were in a normal mood. Seeing that their younger brother was scolded, they hurried forward to smooth things over and said, "General, don't forget your responsibility. Your Majesty personally issued an edict to use Princess Pingyang as the chief general of the Hebei Road marching. General Luo and the deputy chief general of the Hebei Road marching assisted Princess Pingyang to resist the Turkic soldiers invading Hebei Road. General Luo defeated Hedong (Tu) Que, which was indeed his ability, but it had nothing to do with this mission. The current situation in Hebei Road is controlled by the general. As long as the general continues to use border blockade, the Turkic will have no opportunity to take advantage of it, and they will retreat. The great achievements of resistance will fall on the Lord."

Li Yi's anger dissipated slightly and she frowned and said, "Isn't there any way to resist Luo Shixin and let us break the Turks by ourselves?"

Xue Wanche shook his head and smiled bitterly: "After all, sir is not the head coach, and General Luo is a famous general. Even if I join forces with my younger brother, I may not be his opponent. The princess will not let such a powerful general be useless. If she wants to prevent him from making contributions, she will only give him no room to play."

Li Yi hummed and expressed dissatisfaction with Xue Wanche's praise for Luo Shixin, but he could not refute it in a word. He was famous for his bravery, but he did not know what it means to be a top-level hero, and only then did he know what it means to be outside the human being and there is a heaven beyond the sky.

Xue Wanjun also said: "The Turkic chief Dewen Fu is insatiable, but he cherishes his wings. As long as they don't give them an opportunity to take advantage of it, they will naturally retreat. However, I am worried that Dewen Fu will not be able to change his target and rob Yizhou. It is necessary for Yizhou to defend properly, so let Yizhou go from the last one."

Li Yi responded and gave him a thousand cavalry, but he didn't give him any good expression. However, his attitude still softened. The two brothers Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun are both rare generals, but in general Xue Wanche is more brave, while Xue Wanjun is more intelligent and smart. Xue Wanjun is also the number one strategist under his command, and he is not willing to make trouble with him too much.

Xue Wanjun was responsible for the Yizhou defense line and asked Pingyang and Luo Shixin to learn about it the next day.

Luo Shixin couldn't help but secretly praised the Xue brothers as amazing and budgeted the Turkic movements first.

However, this is completely inconsistent with their plan. After all, just one thousand cavalry can't resist the intentions of the Turkic cavalry. Instead, it is conducive to the final interception. Of course, the premise is that Xue Wanjun has a little bit of consciousness as a Chinese citizen...

Everything was as Luo Shixin expected. Li Yi's active dispatch of all the cavalry under his command clearly did not intend to give him a chance to make a contribution again.

Three days later, news came from behind that was delayed due to heavy rainfall in the sky.

Princess Pingyang ordered all prefectures and counties to prepare food and grass. Because Yizhou had not been invaded by the Turkic in the autumn, the autumn harvest went smoothly, and the food and grass raised this time was mainly Yizhou.

Both big and small jobs require cavalry. Li Yi's savings accumulated in Youzhou over the years have taken over all the heavy and tiring work, and Luo Shixin can't interfere at all.

He was idle and asked Princess Pingyang to send food and grass.

Looking at Luo Shixin's bleak back, Li Yi smiled proudly.

Youzhou Yuyang.

Gao Kaidao served De Wenfu with a sad face, and his intestines were regretful.

As the watchdog of the Turks, Gao Kaidao can be regarded as a dedication to his heart and responsibility.

During the Turkic invasion, Gao Kaidao was entertained with various delicacies, hoping to finally get some bones. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Li Tang's border soldiers to destroy the Turks, they conquer cities and territory to strengthen their forces.

The result was unpredictable. Li Yi, who had always cherished his wings, suddenly became active and fierce, and fucked against the Turks everywhere. The seemingly fierce Turks hid shamefully and did not dare to do a positive consumption. So the harvest of the southern invasion was not enough to be blocked between his teeth, so he could not bear it. On the contrary, because the food and accommodation of the Turks were tens of thousands of riders, he took care of them, which made his waist shrink and shrink, and he could hardly bear it.

In order not to let Dewen Fu eat up, Gao Kaidao spread his eyes wide, just to send Dewen Fu, the great god, out, and dare not think about anything else.

Dingzhou was impeccable, so Gao Kaidao turned his attention to Yizhou. He learned about Li Tang's collection of grain in Yizhou for granting him, which immediately made him feel like he was treasured.

"Sir Shi Jin, this is great news. No gold, silver and treasure are as real as food. The food from Li Tang is robbed, which is enough for the adult tribe to survive the winter."

The Turks' habits are different from those of the Central Plains. More than 20,000 soldiers and horses can eat food for more than ten days in the Turks for several months. It's not because they have a small appetite, but because they eat differently.

The Turks were not the carnivorous people they imagined. On the contrary, they cherished sheep and horses only when guests came or when they were old. Otherwise, the breeding speed of horses and sheep would never be as fast as slaughter.

The Turks mainly use various milk foods, and horse milk is almost unlimitedly supplied, which is nutritious and filling, but they cannot just drink milk. So they usually drink a large bowl of horse milk with a little bit of barley and a little bit of millet. Because of this, the food is very resistant to food for them. The food for more than 20,000 soldiers and horses for more than ten days is enough to survive the winter.
