Chapter 15: Young men's double fierceness

The next morning, 300,000 imperial guards guarded Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty and thousands of civil and military officials leaving Linshuo Palace and heading for Liaodong in a mighty manner. (　　　)

Yang Yuanqing, the general manager of Youzhou, and Li Yuan, the temporary prefect, sent Yang Guang past Bao Shui, and then returned to Youzhou City.

"Envoy Li, as soon as the army left, Zhuo County finally calmed down. Tell me what we should do next?"

On the way back to the city, Yang Yuanqing rode a horse and walked slowly with Li Yuan, discussing the next step.

Li Yuan looked at the endless deserted fields, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It should be the busy farming season now, but look at these lands. The land of hundreds of miles is deserted. What should I do in the summer? In my opinion, I should find a way to mobilize farmers to plant something! Otherwise, there will be famine in Zhuo County in summer and the people's hearts will be unstable, which will affect the overall situation of the Liaodong Battle!"

"In fact, it has been left in the desert since the previous year. Many troops and civilians have been stationed for more than a year. Most of the local farmers in Zhuo County have been concentrated to the west of the Yongji River. This land of hundreds of miles has been expropriated by the court and is now owned by the government. I suggest that Envoy Li can concentrate refugees to cultivate the land. The government will exempt them from rent. This can not only restore the land, but also concentrate refugees to avoid causing trouble. What does Envoy Li think?"

Li Yuan nodded, "This is a feasible solution, but I lack someone in my hands."

Yang Yuanqing laughed and said, "Isn't it easy to ask for people? Tomorrow I will transfer 500 soldiers to Li Envoy and listen to Li Envoy's orders."

Li Yuan was overjoyed, "Then thank you, General Manager Yang."

"Your instructors don't have to be polite. I'm not only Li, but I have a responsibility to stabilize the situation in Zhuo County."

The two were quite intimate, but they did not mention the past. At this time, Li Yuan asked with concern: "Master Yang, what is the statement after the last assassination?"

"It was left unresolved. At that time, Prefect Cui wrote a memorial to report this incident to the emperor, and it was sank to the sea, as if nothing had happened. The temple."

"I know a little about this."

Li Yuan pondered for a moment: "At that time, the emperor asked the seven ministers of the cabinet to discuss this matter. I heard that the final result was that the seven ministers of the cabinet rejected the memorial of the prefect Cui. They believed that the evidence for accusing the Yuan family was insufficient."

"Actually, I knew that the assassination had nothing to do with the Yuan family. If the Yuan family wanted to assassin, there would not be any Yuan family token on the assassin, and Yuan Min would not show up in public. It must have been not done by the Yuan family."

"Can it be the rioters like Wang Baxu and Lu Mingyue?" Li Yuan asked again.

Yang Yuanqing smiled, "It is also possible. When it comes to the rioters, I should consider taking advantage of the opportunity of the emperor's northern expedition to Liaodong and to wipe out these two bandits. We must never let them grow up in Youzhou."

While the two were talking, two knights rushed towards the front, and the horse was very fast. Yang Yuanqing could see clearly that they were two young players, and there was a young general behind them. From a distance, they heard them shouting: "Dad!"

Li Yuan stroked his beard and laughed, "This is my two teenage sons Yuanji and Xuanba are here."

Yang Yuanqing was excited. Did Li Yuanji and Li Xuanba come? He knew that Li Yuan had a sick son named Xuanba in history. He died at the age of sixteen or seventeen. Is that the boy in front of him?

Two young generals rushed over, one tall and the other short, only twelve or thirteen years old. One in front was nearly six feet tall, with a pair of leopard eyes, dark skin, wearing a golden crown, thin silver armor, and holding a square painting halberd in his hand. This person was Li Yuan's third son Li Yuanji, thirteen years old this year, studied under Changsun Sheng, skilled in bows and horses, and had a strong martial arts skills.

Yang Yuanqing had heard of him, who was very famous in the capital, with a nickname called "Little Lu Bu". Although "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was later written, folk legends about Lu Bu were circulated in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

The person behind him was half a head shorter than Li Yuanji, with a sharp-mouthed cheek, a yellowish complexion, and a sick-looking face. He was a little deformed, with a very small head, very wide shoulders, and thick arms, making him look extremely powerful. He was Li Yuan's fourth son Li Xuanba. He was only twelve years old this year, born with brute force, and also had a nickname, "Disease Thunder God". His pair of weapons were Thunder Hammers. Because of his youth, his two Thunder Hammers weighed only a hundred kilograms.

Li Xuanba is a fetal disease with congenital deficiency, and was treated by the famous doctor Sun Simiao. The disease was cured, but the sequelae left by congenital deficiency could not be cured, which made him deformed and his mind a little dull. However, he had the talent for martial arts practice and was attracted by Yu Zhongwen. He accepted him as a disciple at the age of five and learned a strong martial arts. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple

Li Yuan's five sons have their own characteristics. The eldest son Jiancheng studied literature, the second son Shimin was both civil and military, the third son Yuanji and the fourth son Xuanba practiced martial arts, and the fifth son Zhiyun also studied literature. These five sons have always been Li Yuan's pride.

"See Mr. Father!"

Li Yuanji was full of energy and was full of energy, but Li Xuanba was a little dull, and he was stupid and learned rituals from his brother, and said in a silence: "See my father!"

Li Yuan rebuilt the most, liked Shimin the most, and felt most sorry for Xuanba, but was just as ordinary to Yuanji. He felt that Yuanji was a little cunning and took Xuanba out all day to cause trouble, but in the end he turned the blame on Xuanba, which made Li Yuan very annoyed, so he did not allow Xuanba to follow him again, but handed Xuanba to his son-in-law Chai Shao. The young general behind him was his son-in-law Chai Shao. Ren Yingji Lang was also transferred to Zhuo County. Li Yuan left the favor of the Ministry of War, and Chai Shao was left to guard the granary of Zhuo County.

"Did you give me a greeting to General Manager Yang?" Li Yuan said with a heavy face.

Li Yuanji hurriedly saluted Yang Yuanqing, "See General Yang!"

Li Xuanba also followed behind clumsyly, saying in a silence: "See General Yang!"

Yang Yuanqing laughed, "Two brothers are exempt from gifts!"

He reached into the horse bag and touched it, took out a horizontal knife, and smiled and said, "This is made of the star iron obtained from the extreme northern grassland. It is quite sharp. Let's give this knife to the smallest person!"

He handed the knife to Li Xuanba. Li Xuanba was overjoyed and took it and pulled it out half. He saw that the blade was sharp and extremely sharp. He couldn't put it down. He drew it out and ran out to shout and slash, but forgot to thank Yang Yuanqing.

Li Yuan apologized: "This child is relatively dull, so don't blame Mr. Yang."

Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, "Xuanba is simple and natural, I like him very much."

Seeing a hint of jealousy flashing in Yuanji's eyes, Yang Yuanqing bowed and smiled, "I'm sorry today. I only have a knife around me. I'll give it to you next time."

Li Yuanji turned his head and said proudly: "I have a knife myself, so I don't have to send it to you!"

Li Yuan was furious and whipped it off, pointing at Yuan Ji and cursing: "You are not polite and apologizing to Mr. Yang!"

Li Yuanji bit his lip tightly, but refused to apologize. Li Yuan couldn't hold on to his face and became more angry. He whipped it away with another whip. Yang Yuanqing stopped Li Yuan's arm and smiled and said, "Eunuch Li, why bother to get angry if you have a small matter?"

Chai Shao hurried forward and whispered Li Yuanji. Li Yuanji then stepped forward to salute, "If Yuanji is rude, please forgive me."

Seeing that his son apologized, Li Yuan calmed down his anger and glared at him fiercely. However, Li Yuanji said again: "I heard that General Yang is very good at archery skills for a long time, Yuanji wants to ask for advice."

Yang Yuanqing laughed in silence. Li Yuanji is quite interesting. He looks quite like when he was young, and he is a little more energetic. Li Yuan was about to scold him, but Yang Yuanqing stopped him and said with a smile: "There are many people in our army who are very good at archery. If Yuanji is interested, he might as well come to our military camp tomorrow and compete with my children."

Li Yuanji did not understand Yang Yuanqing's implied meaning. His young character immediately agreed, "Okay! It will definitely come tomorrow. If General Manager Yang's subordinates are not good, I would like to ask General Manager Yang for advice!"

“No problem.”

Yang Yuanqing turned around and smiled at Li Yuan, "The son-in-law is really interesting, I like it very much."

Li Yuan smiled bitterly, speechless. Yang Yuanqing laughed and urged the horse to go to Youzhou City.

Wuhui Mountain in Shanggu County is a mountain that stretches for hundreds of miles, with high mountains and dense forests and a majestic momentum. On Feihu Ridge north of Wuhui Mountain, there are several mountain villages distributed. This is the old nest of the bandit leader Mantian Wang Bawei. Wang Bawei is a powerful man in Shanggu County, with high martial arts skills and ambitiousness. After Yang Guang launched the Goryeo War, the world was in chaos. Countless grain delivery men from Henan and Shandong fled in Zhuo County because they could not pass the work.

Wang Baxu felt that the time had come, so he recruited hundreds of children from the towns, occupied the mountain and became king, and fled the civilians all defected to him. In just a few months, he recruited nearly 10,000 people. He called himself the Mantian King and began to become a king of heaven.

After all, Wang Baxu was a local and did not dare to harass the countryside too much, so he turned his target to Feihu Road, intercepted passers-by, forced the purchase of money from the road, and at the same time he also reclaimed land at the foot of the mountain to be self-sufficient.

It has been a whole year since he proclaimed himself king in the seventh year of Daye. Because his family is rich, he still doesn't feel the pressure at first. With more than 10,000 people under his command, he gradually couldn't bear it. However, as the army set out to Liaodong, the king's heart was gradually alive and began to consider the way to make a living. Like all the bandits, what he coveted the most was the huge Hyogo and granary of Zhuo County.

These days he has been thinking about taking action. In the morning, Wang Baxu and the second head of the army, Song Jingang, were discussing plans.

Wang Baxu and Song Jingang are fellow villagers. Wang Baxu is in his early thirties, and Song Jingang is slightly younger than one or two years younger. He is not only skilled in martial arts, but also has a lot of strategies. While the two were discussing, a soldier rushed into the meeting hall to report: "Report to the Heavenly King, Lu Mingyue asked for a meeting outside the village."

Wang Baxu was stunned. Why did Lu Mingyue come? Song Jingang thought about it and smiled: "Lu Mingyue comes in person, and there must be something big. If I am not wrong, he is also coming for the Guan Cang of Zhuo County."

Wang Baxu laughed, "It's coming just right!"

He hurried out to greet Lu Mingyue. In front of the village, Lu Mingyue, dressed in black, brought more than a dozen brothers to wait. Lu Mingyue is also a famous tyrant in Zhuo County. He has a brilliant sword technique and is known as the Youzhou Yusheng Dao. In the fourth year of Renshou, he was introduced to King Yang Hing of Qi. Because he was a member of the Lu clan of Fanyang, Yang Hing appointed him as one of his four guards.

After the King of Qi was deposed, Lu Mingyue returned to his hometown. The Lu family hated him because he served the King of Qi. Lu Mingyue simply broke up with the family and waited for an opportunity to rebel. Last year, it was almost the same time that Wang Baxu rebelled in Yanshan. He also recruited nearly 10,000 subordinates and called himself the "King of Shi".

Lu Mingyue is 35 or 36 years old this year. She is big and round, has a square face, and has a sharp gaze. Especially his pair of ears that are eye-catching, it is unforgettable.

Today he came to find Wang Baxu, because he was facing a survival crisis, and the huge supplies left by the Sui army made him unable to sit still.
