I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 7 Milk Tiger Howling Valley
The three of them, Zhang Liao, were also extremely happy, seeing the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, what more could they ask for.

"My lord, what are your plans for us next? I'll follow my lord's orders," Zhang Liao asked impatiently.

Although everyone has recognized Li Shimin as the master and has the grand goal of making contributions and helping the community, but where to start and how to achieve it are still at a loss.Since Li Shimin is far-sighted, let's listen to Li Shimin's arrangements.

Hearing Zhang Liao's question, Li Shimin naturally understood everyone's thoughts and the mood of everyone making contributions.But he had his own considerations, so he laughed loudly: "Brothers, today we fought against the Hu people. We are already exhausted. You all have injuries in your body. Besides, the Hu people may find you here at any time. It’s better for everyone to have a good night’s rest first, we’ll get to a safe place as soon as possible, and then we’ll make a long-term plan.”

Seeing that Li Shimin didn't want to say more, Zhang Liao wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted by Cao Wenbao: "Young master is right, anyway, the future will be long, don't be in a hurry, everyone just listen to the young master's arrangement."

Cao Wenbao heard that Li Shimin didn't want to speak now, so he decisively interrupted Zhang Liao's questioning, thinking: "Young master, if you don't speak now, you must have your own ideas. Although you don't quite understand it, you should just let your master arrange everything."

Li Shimin also looked at Cao Wenbao appreciatively for his timely understanding.

At this time, Li Shimin didn't want to tell his thoughts and arrangements immediately, except that he was very tired after a big battle, and the pursuers might find them at any time.

What's more, he just came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Although he knows this period of history very well, as the saying goes, "what you get on paper is always superficial, but you never know that you have to do it yourself." Only when you go deep into this era can you understand Only in the most real situation can a practical "Late Han strategy" be formulated.

Otherwise, just based on the records in the books, you think that you have already seized the opportunity and success is within your reach?That would be dead wrong.

At this time Gan Xinghan said: "My lord, the nearest place to this place is Mayi, and after a short walk, we will reach Yanmen Pass. We will start from Yanmen Pass and sneak into the hinterland of the grassland."

At this time, Gan Xinghan roughly guessed what Li Shimin was thinking. He had just come out of the mountain. Although he had a thorough understanding of the general trend of the world, after all, he was not familiar with the place where he lived, and he didn't know the local conditions in Bingzhou and Yanmen County. When the time came, it would be natural. Will tell everyone.So I took the initiative to introduce some information to him, so that he can arrange the next step.

After listening to Gan Xinghan's introduction, Li Shimin also remembered that Zhang Liao's hometown was in Mayi. His ancestors were well-known businessmen and had some influence in Mayi area.

In the short term, it's better to have someone with a decent background in Mayi, even if it costs a little money, to become a small official such as a county lieutenant or chief bookkeeper, so as to gain a firm foothold first.

When the Hu people's army comes, they will recruit hundreds of village braves in the name of guarding Mayi City to participate in the battle against the Hu people, and then look for opportunities to strengthen their own strength, and slowly plan.

"Heroes in troubled times rise from all directions, and if they have a gun, they are the grass-headed king." As long as you slowly train a team of your own direct line, then your goal of domination will be a little closer.

Speaking of military training, Li Shimin still has a lot of experience. The Xuanjia Army under his command is also a peerless army in the world. He once used more than 3000 Xuanjia troops to defeat Wang Shichong's 10 army, and established the ownership of the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

Therefore, in the previous life, Li Shimin still yearned for and admired the strongest "special soldiers" in the history of the Three Kingdoms, such as Gongsun Zan's white horse righteous congregation, Liu Bei's white ear soldiers, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, and Lu Bu's trapped camp.

Thinking of this, Li Shi asked: "General Zhang, is your home in Mayi?"

"My son, my family has lived in Mayi for generations. My father was the county magistrate of Mayi a few years ago. Now because of his age, he resigned early and went home to retire." Zhang Liao said.

Zhang Liao was also very surprised, how did Li Shimin know that his family was in Mayi, but he didn't ask in detail, he only said that it was Li Shimin's clever calculation.

Li Shimin thought to himself: "Isn't this just right? Zhang Liao's family is very influential in Mayi, so it is much more convenient for me to do things."

So he said to everyone: "I just came out of the mountain, and I still have a decent background first, and then I have to ask the old county magistrate Zhang to help a small official like a county lieutenant or master book in the county government. When the barbarians attacked, In the name of fighting against the Hu people, we are recruiting hundreds of townspeople in Mayi to build our own team, and with our own army, we will have a place to stand."

Seeing that everyone listened carefully, he continued: "At that time, I will ask General Zhang Liao to assist me in recruiting and training soldiers. Gan Xinghan and Cao Wenbao will rush back to the Yanmenguan Barracks first, report the information collected along the way, and wait for my further arrangements."

"I will follow the arrangement of the young master." Everyone replied together.

Li Shimin also said viciously: "No matter what happens in the future, since the Hu people are here, how can we not 'entertain' them well? The so-called friends come with good wine, and jackals come with knives and guns. Let the Hu people feel like a big man." The courage of the man, I will meet these barbarians in Mayi."

When everyone heard Li Shimin's arrangement, they all thought it was very appropriate. Everyone also knew that Zhang Liao's hometown was in Mayi, and he was very famous in the local area. It would be more effective if he recruited soldiers. Naturally, Gan Xinghan and Cao Wenbao had no objections.

In addition, I was very pleased and admired to hear that Li Shimin hated the Hu people so much and wanted to personally participate in the war against the Hu people. He really had the world in his heart.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, this lonely sky falls asleep with the lonely city...

Early the next morning, when everyone woke up from their sleep, they saw Li Shimin practicing martial arts in an open space. Ma Chan was handy and majestic in his hands, and every move was exquisite.There is no bells and whistles, every blow is a killer move on the battlefield, which obviously won the essence of Ma Chan.

The three people watched with enthusiasm, Zhang Liao was obviously impatient, and shouted to Li Shimin: "My lord, I want to have a fight with you at the end, may I ask for your advice?"

Li Shimin had already discovered the three of them, and when he heard that Zhang Liao was interested in this, he was naturally very willing. In fact, he wanted to fight him for a long time in his heart.

So he said: "Haha, even if you let the horse come here, I haven't had a good activity for a long time." Then he put on an inviting posture.

Zhang Liao was overjoyed, raised the crescent halberd and flew towards him, as if he was about to strike.

At this time Gan Xinghan also said with a smile: "Young master, Zhang Liao, please stop, you must hurt your peace."

Hearing a loud shout from the field, the two of them collided like two big mountains. The horse lance and the long halberd collided in the air, making a crisp sound. Both of them had extremely strong arms, and they collided very close. Like a mountain swaying, Zhang Liao retreated three steps before he was able to stand still, while Li Shimin remained motionless.

Zhang Liao didn't expect Li Shimin to be so powerful, he couldn't help arousing his fighting spirit, gathered all his strength, and rushed forward again

The crescent halberd opened and closed, with overwhelming momentum, and with the momentum of Mount Tai, it slashed at Li Shimin. Li Shimin did not back down, and fought with him with agility. , and hit Zhang Liao's back. Seeing that Zhang Liao was about to be hit, Zhang Liao seemed to have eyes behind his back, and held his halberd horizontally with both hands to block Li Shimin's attack.

Seeing that his attack was dispelled by Zhang Liao, Li Shimin stepped up his strength again and took the initiative to attack Zhang Liao. The cold light flashed, and the two collided like mountain giant apes. The surrounding dust was flying. After 50 rounds, there was still no winner, but Zhang Liao was exhausted, while Li Shimin was still fighting high.

To say that Li Shimin and Zhang Liao are competing in martial arts, it is better to say that he is serving as a training partner for Zhang Liao.Li Shimin naturally admired Zhang Liao very much. Although he was young, his fighting spirit was indomitable.Now that I can defeat him, it is only because I have rich fighting experience and stronger strength than him.

Zhang Liao naturally felt that he was not Li Shimin's opponent, and he also understood that Li Shimin didn't use his full strength, but instead seemed to be teaching himself moves, acting as a training partner for himself.Knowing that if you continue to fight, you will definitely lose.

So, Zhang Liao turned around and jumped back, putting away his momentum and leaving the battle, he clasped his fists and said, "Young master is very skilled in martial arts, the final general is willing to admit defeat, and he is convinced that he loses."

"Haha, General Zhang has supernatural powers, the milk tiger roars in the valley, and the dragon dives into the abyss. Given time, I may not be your opponent." Li Shimin said with a smile.

Haha, Zhang Liao also said with a hearty smile: "Today was a great battle, and the general will definitely practice martial arts diligently. In the future, we will fight for [-] rounds."

After all, the few people did not delay any longer, packed up their luggage and seized the gold and silver, and galloped towards Mayi.
