Royal Road

Chapter 206: Win over

Early in the morning, Li Jun woke up from his dream. This is not very common. Since Jinyang released the siege, his team finally had time to stop. He was good at defending the city, and the governor had not yet arrived. Taking advantage of this leisure time, he relaxed a bit. It’s hard to say that Yeyeshengge, on the tenth and eighth of the ten days, he was drunk. However, there was no banquet yesterday, and he was rarely drunk, but was quarreled by the sound outside the door.

Anxiously scratching his belly, Li Jun put on his clothes and walked out of the barracks. When he saw the situation in front of him clearly, he couldn't help his eyes widening. I saw that the schoolyard outside was already crowded with soldiers and they were training. There are one-to-one competitions, and there are also groups of three to five, all tired and sweating, and they can almost keep up with the actual combat.

After blinking, Li Jun called to the soldiers: "What's the matter?"

The personal soldier is not surprising: "This is the group of private soldiers brought by the envoy. They have been training for several days. They will line up to leave the camp before dawn and run for several miles. When they come back, they will occupy the school grounds. , I'm afraid it won't end until Chen Shi."

In the past few days, Li Jun always sleeps on three poles until the sun. Where can I know this? However, I have already stayed there, and the leader is a miscellaneous general at the same level as myself, so it is not easy to stop him. But why is this General Yi so desperate? He remembered that during the day, this group of people had to take part in the work of protecting farmers and rectifying the refugees. Isn't he afraid of being too tired to make his subordinates rebel?

A little curiosity arose in his mind, Li Jun straightened his clothes and walked towards the school grounds. General Na Yi is tall and unusual in appearance, so it's not hard to find. Only when he got closer did Li Jun discover that there were still a few people around Yi Yan, isn't it just the few colonels of captains under his command?

Eyebrows frowned, and Li Jun cleared his throat: "General Yi, have you come out to practice so early?"

Yi Yan turned around and apologized: "I disturbed General Li."

Li Jun smiled and waved his hand: "The school grounds are empty and empty. General Yi just uses it. It's just that we still need to practice now. Can the children live?"

"To be a soldier is to fight. It's better to practice now than to die." Yi Yan said lightly.

That's what I said, but Li Jun sounded a little harsh. However, the surname Yi has always been deserted, and he looks like a warrior at first glance, so it is not easy to pick something wrong.

Hehe smiled, and Li Jun said: "The governor is still good at ruling the army. When I look back, my brothers have to learn more... Tian Kui, why are you here?"

Tian Xun was Li Jun's captain, and he hurriedly said, "General Qi, we have nothing to do for a few mornings, so let's take a look at General Yi's drill..."

Li Jun snorted: "Don't disturb others, you guys, come with me."

With that, Li Jun bowed his hand to Yi Yan again: "General Yi continues to be busy, let's go first."

Yi Yan nodded, before sending him away, and went to continue training his own soldiers.

With a few uneasy subordinates, Li Jun returned to the barracks, sat down cross-legged with a thud, and scolded: "You guys are so courageous, do you think you want to associate with that surnamed Yi privately? Not in office?!"

Before the governor arrived, Li Jun would never have a close relationship with Liang Cishi's confidants. Therefore, living in the same barracks, he didn't pay much attention to Yiyan and nodded his acquaintance. Never thought of these guys, ran to join in the fun.

A few people immediately knelt down, and Tian Hou bowed their heads and said: "General, I have no intention of making friends, just to see how the private soldiers under the command of Junjun are. This surname is Yi, I really can't underestimate it!"

"Oh?" Li Jun scratched his short beard, "What do you see?"

"Yi Boyuan was promoted from the white body to the general position in just two years. It is said that he is invincible and he is the leader of the Shangdang armies..." Tian Hsu paused, "and Linghu Yuanjun followed this. People have close contacts, and it is said that many victories are thanks to him."

Li Jun's expression immediately became serious: "Linghu's situation has risen so fast because of this surname Yi?"

"Yeah. It seems that Yi Boyuan joined forces in the battle. General Linghu didn't win a battle when he was in Jinyang, but he was never defeated when he followed the party soldiers!" Tian Hun increased his tone.

This is probably because the governor deliberately promoted the kid Linghu Kuang. Li Jun didn't react slowly, and immediately woke up. Wait, so, isn't Yi Yan a good partner who doesn't strive for merit? If he is going to fight with him, Liang Shijun will more or less promote others for his own use. This is an extremely rare character. Nowadays, it is not uncommon for Shangguans to be greedy for merit. How can they suppress their own deployment and distribute merit to others?

But what if it is true? I was born to death, but I was nothing but the leftovers left by Shangguan, but with Liang Cishi, just like the Linghu situation, he took great contributions and moved to a high position, and there was no need to worry about being dragged down by the friendly army. What a wonderful thing!

Wait, Li Jun shook his head: "Maybe the envoy re-used Linghu's status for General Fenwei. How can Linghu be regarded as a big clan, is it comparable to those of us poor soldiers?"

Li Jun has no prominent wealth, so even if he is promoted to general, he still has to stay in the barracks and defend the city. If you change the noble family, you will have a mansion and maidservant, and you will be reluctant to think about it. If the envoy also values ​​this identity, what does it have to do with them?

Tian Kui hey: "The general has no idea about this, and the final general has also inquired about it. Now Wu Ling, who is guarding the city at Huguan, is also able to pull the king with one hand. The same is average, and he has jumped several levels in two years. Now you can guard the important town like Huguan. This Liang Shijun, really doesn't pay attention to the difference between the door!"

This news is far more important than others. Is there such a Shangguan? There must be, but it is difficult to encounter. Unless you are a fierce general like Zhang Fang, who shouldn't be careful to flatter them in order to be safe? What's more, how easy it is to win a battle. They defended the city so hard, and it was Yi Yan and Ling Hu Kuang that led the troops to solve the siege of Jinyang.

In this way, he can fight wars without striving for merit, and there is a guy who is a big backer, and it seems that he can really make friends.

Don’t worry about supervising everything, Li Jun pondered for a moment, and said: "General Yi has been in the barracks for a few days, and it’s always bad to be negligent. Don’t you have to invite a dinner party now? You don’t have to go outside, just recruit in the camp. It's good to be accompanied by a few battalions."

This is an extremely safe method. Not only has a relationship with people, but also won't go out. How can others know what happened in the camp? I just don't know if Yi Boyuan will dislike it.

Tian Yu was overjoyed, and immediately said: "The last will go and ask!"

He was also a little bit up, and he didn't know when he wanted to be a general. Wouldn't it be an advantage if he could vote for the governor with the chief? Not dare to neglect, he immediately turned around and went out.

Yi Yan was still guarding the school field, and it was no surprise that he saw Tian Xun who had gone and returned. Hearing his intentions, he agreed. Seeing Tian Yu's happily back, Yi Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. These days, Jinyang's guards are observing him, and he is also observing these middle-level generals. Li Jun is a man who dared to fight and made a lot of credit when defending the city. It's a pity that his status is low and not taken seriously. These soldiers under his command have a bleak future.

Such a person is the best to win. What's more, Tian Kui was extremely curious about their military training, unlike a person willing to be poor and humble. With Wu Ling and Linghu Kuang as role models, how could he give up? If you come and go, you will get a relationship. Yi Yan has never been very interested in things like going to a banquet. But for the sake of big plans, why not go?

The sunset and the moon rose, and soon it was time for the banquet. After Yi Yan packed up and stopped, he brought only two of his guards to the barracks on Li Jun's side. In the room, the banquet had been prepared long ago, and there were five or six battalions waiting by the side. As a general, Li Jun naturally has the qualifications of recruiting tricks to accompany the camp. These women are among the best in the camp, and they are pretty good.

"General Yi is here! Hurry up, please sit down!" Li Jun greeted warmly in response to the indifference over the past few days.

After Yi Yan thanked him, he just took a seat, and a coquettish girl was naturally and considerately waiting around him. However, I don't know if his face is different, the female dancer is a little stiff, and she serves wine and vegetables cautiously, not daring to stick too close.

Naturally, Yi Yan would not put her in his eyes: "Thanks to the general's invitation, I also prepared some thin wines produced by the Shangdang party to give the general a taste."

Unexpectedly, such a cold-faced guy could even be polite for several weeks. Li Jun laughed and said, "What kind of general is still called! I am a few years older than my virtuous brother, so I might as well be a brother! This Shangdang porcelain is famous all over the world, and I never wanted to return it. Produce wine, pour it quickly!"

The wine is indeed a good wine, but it is a new brew from the Liang Mansion, with a delicious and mellow color, and a bit more pure and strong than the usual grain wine. Jinyang has been trapped for a year, how can there be such good wine? ! Li Jun called out, "If this is a booze, brother, I'm afraid that he will drink horse urine for his brother!"

Yi Yan toasted and took a sip: "I have a lot of this kind of wine. If Brother Li likes it, I will bring it back."

"Haha, I didn't expect that this meal could be exchanged for such a good wine. I knew it was so, so I should have invited it a few days ago!" Li Jun laughed and hugged the female artist around him. It's too restrained, and I don't see drinking and having fun. Why don't you like the women in Jinyang City?"

The corner of Yi Yan's eyes glanced at the female dancer with a stiff smile beside her, and said lightly: "Since you are here, there are still a lot of important tasks to be dealt with. There is no time to get away."

Li Jun raised his eyebrows: "Liang Shijun frequently used methods, which really amazed the brothers. With such a custodial history, and the state is just around the corner... It's just that the Xiongnu is still in the belly, Yu brother, I have also been in the city for a long time. People always have lingering fears when they think about it. How brave and invincible like the virtuous brother!"

"Brother Li is absurd. I'm just following the messenger's dispatch." Yi Yan put down the cup in his hand. "Think of me as a slave of the Liang Family. It’s a life-long benefit."

Yi Yan is a cold face, but when it comes to Liang Cishi, he is extremely solemn, and his loyalty is beyond words. Li Jun's heart moved slightly, and it seemed that what Tian Hou had detected before was not a lie. As long as Liang Cishi is important, promotion and fortune is a trivial matter. Without looking at Yi Yan, Ji Nu can be promoted to general, so why not?

Feeling moved, Li Jun said in deep thought: "Shijun Liang is a great talent, but I am afraid that I won't be up to it. Alas, I am ashamed to say, how old is the imaginary brother, but now Brother Yu is just a miscellaneous general. Go in again..."

"Brother Li, why bother to belittle himself? At the beginning, Linghu Saburo was rescued from prison, but now he has also been promoted to General Zhechong? Brother Li has maintained Jinyang for a year and he has done a great job." Yi Yan replied casually.

Unexpectedly, Linghu Kuang was rescued from prison by Liang Zixi! Li Jun was also taken aback, and even more emotional. The meaning of these words, is it possible that Liang Shijun can use them?

With a dry cough, Li Jun rubbed his short beard: "So, Brother Yu is still useful?"

"Jinyang just broke the siege, and the war in the state has not ended. There are more opportunities to make contributions." Yi Yan did not answer directly, but the meaning in the words was clear enough.

The big rock in Li Jun's heart suddenly loosened, this is a play! After a few minutes, he smiled and said: "I like a simple person like Brother Xian! Come, don't talk about business today, drink and drink!"

With his words, the few people who accompanied him immediately eagerly advised to drink. Those who came to Yiyan did not refuse, and drank with them. With this kind of wine, he won't get drunk even after drinking four or five jars. With this attitude, the atmosphere of the banquet is naturally high.

After being glared several times by the sister above, the timid female dancer sitting next to Yi Yan finally got up the courage, softened her body, and wanted to lean on that Jiehu. Unexpectedly, before reaching anyone, a hand holding a wine glass blocked the front.

"Full."

Those cold blue eyes that couldn't be dipped in alcoholic wine looked over, and the female dancer was agitated, immediately sat upright, and continued pouring the wine in a proper manner. Yi Yan stopped paying attention to the woman, turned his head, and continued to drink stubbornly with the others.

The night is getting darker.

On the road leading to Bingzhou, a group of soldiers will be on their way at night.

"General, in half an hour, you will be able to reach the front pass." A relative came to report.

Sitting in the carriage, a man with a handsome face and a Chinese suit urged: "Hurry up, within three days, you must be in Jinyang! Time will not wait for me!"

The pro follower did not dare to defy, bowed his head and said yes. The team that had been exhausted for a day immediately moved a few minutes faster and headed towards the remote hinterland of Bingzhou.
