Chapter 351 Expedited Battle Report
"Governor, you can't do this. What if Yuwen Chengdu holds a grudge and comes to me for trouble with the Wei family?"
Wei Li reacted quickly and knew that it was awesome.
The vanguard troops left the eastern capital Luoyang, and they should be said to go north directly on the periphery and headed towards Shuozhou. They were in a desolate place and the journey was boring.
So wooden playing cards became a must-have toy for Li De to pass his time every day.
"Governor, as the vanguard, it is time for the general to explore the way forward and take a step first."
"Xaocheng, why didn't you just say you were plagued by official business? You were active when playing cards, and now you want to run away if you lose badly. It's so boring."
"Wait, I'll help you explore the way."
After Gao Cheng left, Wei Xun followed closely.
Li De was helpless and felt a bit abused when playing poker with them, but he was happy.
Luo Song and Xue Zhi quickly explored the way, trying to find out whether there were any bandits along the way. The more you went north, the more desolate it became. It was difficult for people to see it. The original vigilance was slowly worn down.
"Why haven't you seen Situ En recently?" Luo Song asked.
"He is also lazy now. He said to the governor in the carriage of the logistics support guards to study traps. I haven't seen anyone for several days, as if he had clutches his personal guards now look like carpenters every day."
"It's not just Situ En, but I didn't find that Ding Qilin and He Bida were also attracted by the command of Fenglin Volcano that the governor mentioned recently. They are thinking about military tactics every day."
Their speed is very slow, and it is difficult to detect if the horses are not approached.
As soon as Xue Zhi finished speaking, he heard a serene movement in the woods and immediately made a forbidden gesture. Luo Song beside him was a man with high martial arts skills and his hearing was much better than that of ordinary people. He immediately became alert.
"It's close."
Luo Song picked up the bow and arrow, and in an instant the arrow broke through the wind.
Xue Zhi rushed over quickly with his personal guard.
I walked into the woods carefully and saw that it was a wild boar.
"Brother Luo is good at archery techniques, we can have a meal today."
Xue Zhi asked someone to take the wild boar away, but the two continued to explore the way forward.
After hearing Gao Cheng's reward, Li De immediately had an idea, so he asked someone to look for prey in the mountains and forests along the way, which he could use to practice archery.
The guards were even more active and were able to vent their boredom along the way. The guards spontaneously formed a hunting team and began to hunt in the passing mountains and forests, exploring the way.
This way, the vanguard troops will move even slower. They solved many grain problems along the way and accumulated a lot of fur. They will make a small profit after arriving in Shuofang.
In Chang'an City, Emperor Yang of Sui was thinking about moving the capital at this time, and had long left the matter of the vanguard soldiers behind him, only Yu Wenhua and occasionally thought about it.
He already knew about Luoyang's affairs. It was meaningless to blame Yuwen Chengdu. He used his rights to be supplemented by his son in Luoyang, but the account was recorded and sooner or later he would have to settle it with Li De.
Now, there is no news about the birds in the first half of the north, and people can't find it even if they go to search, and they don't know the route of the vanguard.
"Your Majesty, the vanguard troops have not reached Youzhou at this time..."
Yu Wenhe was just about to take advantage of the situation, and then this time he suppressed the other party. At this time, he heard a message from the door of the hall saying: "The Minister of War is asking for a meeting."
"Let him in."
The Minister of War came to talk about the capital's relocation and was preparing to report the planned list of the capital to the emperor for review. Before he could speak, he was questioned by the emperor first.
"You know what the vanguard soldiers are doing to suppress the bandit training now?"
The Minister of War muttered that their destination was Youzhou, and there were local governments reporting wherever they went. But he didn't know where people were now.
He is the Minister of War and not a secret spy.
"Before you arrived in Youzhou, it should be halfway through the time." The Minister of War thought to himself, and he knew where he was going.
Just when he was frowning and trying to make excuses, a guard outside the hall rushed over.
"Your Majesty, Shuofang has made an emergency report of the battle of 600 miles!"
A father-in-law submitted the battle report.
Emperor Yang of Sui opened it and saw a rich expression on his face, a little frowning, and seemed to be a little joyful.
Yu Wenhua and watching the emperor's expression, they knew that there was a happy event.
"What a Li De. He defeated the Turkic cavalry who plundered the frontier when he first arrived in Shuofang."
The Minister of War wondered why he went to Youzhou and how he went to Shuofang. Although he could also go to Youzhou, how could ordinary people choose this route?
Yu Wenji reacted, his face was calm, but his heart was not at all calm. The purpose of the vanguard's troops leaving for the sake of military achievements.
The children of the generals have their own plans.
In Yu Wenji's opinion, the backers of the generals were unpredictable. For example, I don't know what method they used this time, and told Li De that he brought the vanguard troops to Shuofang, with the purpose of finding the Turks to obtain military achievements.
He knew that Li De did not like being bound, nor did he like to proactively cause trouble. Why did he go to extremes? When he arrived in Shuofang, it was the closest place to the Turks. If he wanted to go to Youzhou along the way, food was the primary issue.
Let’s talk about the risks. If something happens, Li De’s will not be able to escape the relationship and will become the target of public criticism.
After a long period of time, I didn't notice the intriguing look under Emperor Yang of Sui's calm appearance.
"I beat you well, but Gu Xiao looked down on these young generals."
Emperor Yang of Sui said to himself that the Minister of War was suddenly confused. Such merits should not be rewarded for merits as encouragement. Why don’t there be any following words? Just a few words of praise are over?
"Your Majesty, are the vanguard soldiers too aggressive? After all, they are the responsibility of suppressing bandits and actually go to provoke the Turks. It is probably not a good thing that few of them can attract the enemy to counterattack." Yu Wenji reminded.
As a minister, you must share the emperor's worries at this time, and you must make prompts to ensure balance of interests. If His Majesty is so enthusiastic about his mind, he will give the military officer an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it will cause unnecessary debate.
In addition, he promoted Li De to the emperor's heart, rather than really making him bigger and stronger. After thinking quickly, he would be very profitable.
"It's okay, the vanguard has this autonomy. I heard that you asked someone to transport a large amount of supplies to Luoyang?"
Yu Wenji immediately changed his appearance and explained: "Your Majesty, the capital is about to be moved, and the material reserves will be increased to ensure completeness."
Of course, he could not say that he wanted to help his son fill the loophole. He said that in order to increase the defense of the Eastern Capital Luoyang, the Minister of War mentioned this matter reasonably, but he could not do it, so he could only put everything on the future.
"You are intent. The Ministry of Rites has already planned the time to move the capital, which is scheduled for three months. You can go and prepare."
Emperor Yang of Sui casually set the time.
In Shuozhou, the vanguard troops have reported to the local government office. The barracks are stationed on the south side of Shuofang City, with border wall defense, so their camps are very safe.
