Chapter 40 Changes

Everyone knows that Li Yu is so straightforward, so after this incident reached Fengxiang, Li Yu and Li Mi, who were busy preparing to form an alliance with the Uighurs, really didn't pay attention to this matter.

According to Li Yan's death order to Nan Jiyun, he had to gather 5,000 cavalry within a month, and let him and Lei Wanchun use all their skills to train these 5,000 cavalry to the extent that they were elite soldiers at least in the eyes of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

If this task is placed on ordinary people, it will basically not be completed. There were not only no cavalry in Suiyang City before, but the number of people is less than a thousand people, and there is no one rich in war horses.

However, after Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun's almost sleepless efforts for a month, more than 4,700 war horses were finally raised in the cavalry barracks outside Suiyang City within the time limit required by Li Yong, and these almost completely cleaned up the old foundations of Suiyang and several surrounding cities under Li Yong's control.

After this matter was completed, Li Neng asked Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun to continue training cavalry day and night.

At the same time, Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan began to organize their men to spread Li Yan's decision to form an elite cavalry of 5,000 people in Suiyang, and according to the matter prepared by the nemesis of the Yuyang Tuqi in Anlu City, at least to Fengxiang.

Xu Yuan actually raised questions about this matter at the beginning.

"Prince, since Fengxiang wants to exclude you, it is better to keep a low profile when we train troops. Once someone is targeted, in the end, I may have made wedding dresses for others again!"

However, after hearing this, Li Li just smiled slightly and replied: "I am a wedding dress for the Tang Dynasty. And who can make the Tang Dynasty wear it, I have to decide!"

Obviously this was another thing in Li Neng's plan, so Xu Yuan and Zhang Xun were not vague. In a few days, the newly joined cavalry riding here were just proficient in horse riding, and the news came almost there, Fengxiang and even the rebels stationed in Chang'an and Luoyang knew about this.

But at this moment, no one really cared about this matter. Fengxiang's senior officials formulated specific strategies to attack Chang'an and Luoyang, while waiting for the arrival of the Uighur cavalry.

On this day, Li Heng took a letter in his hand and called Li Yu to his room, discussing something with a serious face. Generally, such discussions would have to be with Li Mi, but this time it was not. Obviously, this is not something that Li Heng is willing to let people know.

Li Yu took the letter from Li Heng, opened it briefly, and then threw the letter on the table angrily. He fell to the ground and said excitedly: "Father, how could the Uighurs make such an irresponsible request? How could the people of our Tang Dynasty let them plunder at will? What's the difference between their behavior and the rebels!"

Li Heng looked at Li Yu with an excited face and sighed slightly, then said softly: "The rebel cavalry is powerful, the Tang cavalry is weak. If we were not the Uighurs, the entire Tang Dynasty will no longer exist! At that time, the loss will not be the boys and girls from Chang'an and Luoyang. You will be the emperor in the future. You should not be so thoughtful, and you should not be as stubborn as King Jianning!"

What does Li Heng mean in and out of the words? Li Yu has already understood it almost well. His father is completely guiding himself to the position of the prince.

"Father, did you agree to this?"

"No matter what, let the Uighur cavalry arrive at Fengxiang first. After that, you will discuss with the Prince Ye Hu. I can still give you this freedom."

Obviously, for Li Yu, all this should be irreversible.

Li Yu still knows himself very well. Compared to Li N's decisiveness, Li Yu can definitely be called a gentle person. Although he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, he has almost no interest in going to the battlefield.

If the Tang Dynasty did not have the suffering of war, he would have been very comfortable putting him in the position of the prince. However, the so-called marshal of the world's military and horses is really not the authority he wants.

When Li Yu left his father's mansion, he was already in a state of dismay.

At this time, he would even rather Li Yan be by his side, just as he persuaded Li Heng at Mawei Post. When he didn't dare to say something without a way out, at least he would dare.

This matter was like a heavy big stone, pressing on Li Yu's heart for several days. These days, he was facing the double pressure of Li Heng and Li Mi, and could only persuade himself that everything that was about to come was just for the Tang Dynasty, until a news came.

Guo Ziyi, who was able to conquer and fight under his command, was basically not in Fengxiang. And according to their plan, Guo Ziyi would not bring his elite troops back with him until he actually assembled a large army to attack Chang'an City.

But suddenly one day, without any summoning, Guo Ziyi appeared in Yong County, and he didn't even have time to take off his armor and went straight to Li Heng.

"What's wrong with the Deputy Marshal?"

"Your Majesty, Khan Huairen has heard news that the five thousand Uighur cavalry who reinforced our Fengxiang have made an accident!"

The news brought by Guo Ziyi was like a bolt from the blue for Li Heng.

It turned out that Ye Hu, the son of Huairen Khan, had already set off from the Uighurs with 5,000 cavalry and rushed to Fengxiang, but just as they were about to leave the Uighurs' border and arrived in Fengzhou not far north of Shuofang, they were ambushed in a mountain stream.

This place is not controlled by An Qingxu, and this matter is top secret. Although the Uighurs did not hide much in the marching, normally no one should have known the news in advance.

Indeed, Ye Hu was carrying the most elite cavalry, but the team that attacked them had a total of 20,000 or 30,000 people, and they had been ambushed a long time ago. In addition, the narrow mountain stream, the cavalry's advantages were completely unable to be exerted, and more than 3,000 people were eaten.

Ye Hu suffered such a disaster without any beginnings and ends, and was so angry that he was almost vomiting blood.
