However, in the midst of heavy snow, the heroic spirit faded as he grew older, and the more he looked at the wolf, the majestic King Li Keyong issued an order without hesitation to give up all contact and entanglement with the Taiping Army, and with all the young and strong captured and brought the entire division back to Taiyuan, the Northern Capital.

Because, although he relied on a surprise long-distance raid to win this game, he took stock of the miscellaneous genitals and defeated the bandits who entered Taiyuan Prefecture and about 10,000 troops. In the west of the Fen River, there were at least 30,000 to 40,000 leisurely main players in the activists;

He marched back to the southern part of Taiyuan Prefecture from the Yanmen front line in Daizhou, marching against the wind and snow for more than a hundred miles, and rushed back to the south of Taiyuan Prefecture without stopping, and was waiting for an opportunity to launch an attack on the bandits who besieged Qi County, and was not completely without corresponding costs and consequences;

As the cavalry he drew back from the frontier, about two or three percent of them were separated, left behind or left behind and disappeared. Then, nearly 20% of them were damaged during the process of sacrificing their lives and dying, and a considerable number of soldiers lost their mounts and turned into infantry battle sequences.

Even the core headquarters of the Yaer Army, which he relied on to start his own business and followed the war for many years, broke through the positions set up by the thief army with wire blocks and landmines, and produced a total of seven or eight hundred and eight hundred members of the army;

He was the elite among the elite who had been through many battles. Afterwards, he discovered that after losing two adopted sons, many military generals, the price of this victory was really heavy and painful.

Especially after he saw with his own eyes that the thief army had no reason to underestimate the enemy or take chances by fighting to the end of the firearms and camp defense. When strange thief soldiers appeared on the Fen River, even the bravest pursuers could only return in disgrace.

He could never ask his soldiers to jump into the cold Fen River and wade in the water to attack the vehicles and ships. As for the counter-attacks, even if the Sagittarius who he brought back from the grassland was broken by the firearms of the thieves outside the range, he would not have much hope.

Therefore, when he found that the subsequent pursuit could no longer expand the results of the battle, and he could not do anything to those who were trolling the ships on the Fen River for a while, Li Keyong also followed his intuition and experience developed from years of war, and made a quick decision to break away from contact, and led his troops back to Beidu without any delay.

During this process, the money, grain and supplies in the cities, towns, and docks that the Jin army passed along the way were also taken away by him, thinking that the most resolute means of clearing the world and strengthening the walls.

Therefore, after the snow completely covered all the colors of the earth. When the vanguard of the reinforcements sent by the subsequent reinforcements from Jiexiu City arrived at the city of Qi County again, they saw only a large number of prisoners who were killed, as well as the elderly, weak, women and children who were abandoned in the city.

However, in front of the uprising hall of Jinyang Palace/Daming City in Beidu City, Li Siyuan, who was naked and had a lower hip, knelt in the snow and let the snowflakes fall, causing the whipped wounds to twitch slightly.

But the remaining brothers could only stand by the side in silence, waiting for something without looking sideways. Until the youngest prince Li Cunxu hurriedly walked out, and couldn't wait to cover Li Siyuan's body and said in a deep voice:

"The king summoned...the eldest brother..."

Later, in the hall surrounded by several curtains, sitting obliquely on the rope bed, enjoying several young and beautiful concubines who either kneel or sit. Li Keyong (Zhu Xie Yisheng), who warmed his legs and feet with his chest and waist, opened his voice without even looking at it:

"Da Lang, do you know what you should be punished?"

"I should have to bear the heavy responsibility of my father, lose my army and land first, and ruin my brothers later. Miao Ji deserves to die..."

Li Siyuan, who was kneeling on the ground, bowed his head without hesitation:

"Damn it, stupid!"

However, Li Keyong was swinging his left and right away and threw a plate of fruit food on his head and face without hesitation.

"What the father taught me is!"

Li Siyuan didn't lift the juice flowing down his forehead and didn't move:

"I just angered you to destroy the tens of thousands of troops in the southern expedition and lost the southern states? Didn't I ever suffer a defeat back then? How could I be invincible in this world?"

Li Keyong said coldly:

"What I am angry about is that you are eager for quick success and instant benefits, knowing that it is impossible to do, but you still have to do it! Even though you know that the enemy is already big and the situation is difficult to fall, why don't you ask for help in time? Why don't you try your best to shrink your troops and take advantage of the dangers, but insist on dividing your troops and taking risks, but are defeated by the thieves?"

"Baby is just..."

Li Siyuan wanted to speak but stopped saying:

"Are you worried about letting down my hopes of being alone, or are you tabooing anything else? For example, if your expectations among the brothers are still the relationship between you, Erlang?"

Li Keyong suddenly felt a little guilty:

"The father clearly saw the slightest, but the child failed..."

Li Siyuan dared not argue and admitted:

"Because you have not done enough, neither decisive enough, nor ruthless enough! The world is great, as long as you can win, it is the greatest truth;"

Li Keyong suddenly said with a slight interest:

"So what if you lose tens of thousands of troops? So what if you lose land and states? You just care too much about these details and relationships in front of you, and you ignore the fundamentals of our martial artists?"

"At that time, my father and son were launching troops in Daibei, but they were attacked by the five armies of the imperial court. Even if they fought hard, they would inevitably be destroyed. All their troops were lost. All their relatives were betrayed and their relatives were separated. So what if they ran away alone in Yinshan? Are they still the only ones in the Ming city? "

"What is it that is the martial arts and ability that is brave and the first, the general and mind that makes thousands of vassal men swear to death, and the invincible spirit and determination... With these, even if they are temporarily frustrated and dormant, can the world be so big that it cannot be more powerful?"

"What's more, there are still tens of thousands of armored families in the Northern Capital, hundreds of thousands of households in the vassal state, and all kinds of reserves have been accumulated for more than a year. There is also a place where the northern part is so frost and snow that can be killed thousands of miles in winter. Why are you so disappointed?"

"What the father taught me is that the child is obsessed with it."

Li Siyuan choked up after hearing this.

"Since that's the case, you will be punished and made a meritorious service and immediately send it to the wall of the city to listen to the results."

Li Keyong then said slowly:

"Thank you, the father and commander, for your carelessness. My child should repay you for your own punishment and swear to avenge his previous shame..."

Li Siyuan kowtowed repeatedly and said:

"Don't mention the words that are broken into pieces. I still need your useful body to continue to serve you."

Li Keyong waved his hand again:

"It's because Yazi (Li Cunxu) has repeatedly pleaded for you, and I can't help but be scolded by me. You still need to go around and enlighten me."

"promise.."

Li Siyuan couldn't help but show a touching color when he heard this and responded: Then, looking at Li Siyuan's figure retreating and disappearing behind the curtain, Li Keyong sighed in a complicated expression.

Of course, he was not particularly affectionate or nostalgic about this adopted son who was born in a guard; in fact, most of the time, he took these adopted sons for the needs of the situation or for the necessary means and processes of balancing the complex factions within.

Therefore, he has adopted many adopted sons over the years, but there are actually quite a few who have suffered various reasons in the battle formation or other accidental losses; the only one worthy of his attention is his only heir and eldest son, Li Cunxu.

However, when it is really time to use people, we still need to continue to criticize and win over the boss of the adopted sons, so as to continue to drive those generals of other surnames and clans to fight hard and stabilize the current situation. As the saying goes, "It is better to use mistakes than to make achievements."

After all, he was no longer the generous and generous person who could have had a banquet for three days and three nights in a row at the grassland leaders outside the border; he stayed asleep for several days in order to chase the most precious prey; he climbed up the eagle's cave on the cliff with his bare hands, and only offered a birthday gift for his father, and was praised by everyone.

He is now forty-seven years old. In those pampered Zhongming Ding Food Houses, he is just a young and strong year, and there is still a great opportunity to become a general and a prime minister. However, in the average and relatively short-lived Daibei clans, they are in their old age in a sense.

He has also become the most popular king of Jin in the Tang Dynasty, and has continued and maintained the orthodox title of the Tang Dynasty. As the price of standing at the top of power and staying away from bows and horses, it has only been a few years since he entered Hedong, and he has already begun to make his flesh grow and his body become fat.

Then the trauma left in his early years also became the trauma (rheumatism) that occurred from time to time with the cold, sunny and rainy seasons. In addition, he was not very regular and overeating, which made him suffer from diabetes (diabetes).

Although, in the "Qianjin Prescription" written by the King of Medicine Sun Simiao, there are three things to be cautious about those who have thirst: one is drinking alcohol, two is sexual intercourse, and three is salty food and noodles; but nothing is the one who is currently able to completely ban it.

Therefore, Li Keyong, who was suffering from illness, could only find his youthful vitality and heroic courage again on the battlefield. However, after rushing from Yanmen to Baili and winning, he could not help but feel a sense of weakness and weakness afterwards.

After the diagnosis and treatment of many imperial physicians who came back, they also unanimously determined that he should not ride on horseback and engage in too fierce fighting. As the saying goes, the sadness and sigh of the hero who saw the twilight hero were nothing more than this; however, how could he be willing to do this?

Therefore, he could only prepare for the future and start secretly, paving the way and removing obstacles for his heirs. This time the demise of the southern army certainly caused the damage to the Hedong Zhen he had, but now it is a great time to clean up and clean up the inside?

Thinking of this, he shouted to the outside world again:
Chapter completed!
