Chapter 357
The nerves that had been tense for the past month were also relaxed through drinking and talking.

For a whole afternoon, Cheng Chumo, Jiang Tiyan, and Baiqi, the two school lieutenants, divided up the wine that accompanied them, and Li Xian exchanged cups with the four of them.It wasn't until late at night that he fell asleep drowsily.He didn't wake up until it was bright outside.

Hearing the hustle and bustle outside the tent, which was several times bigger than before, Li Xian patted his still a little dazed mind.

"Huai Dao, what's going on outside?"

I vaguely remember that when the four of them were drinking together, Qin Huaidao, who had been taught very strictly since he was a child, just drank a small cup to moisten his lips and stopped raising his glass. He was laughed at by the four of them for this. Off the account.

The curtain moved slightly, and Cheng Chumo's voice came out.

"Brother Li, seeing that you were sleeping soundly, we didn't bother you much."

"Duke Wei came with [-] cavalry and was rewarding the soldiers. Qin Huaidao was dragged by my father to tell us what happened along the way."

On the leather carpet, Li Xian sat up, rubbed his temples, and put on a leather cloak. Through the felt tent, he could clearly hear the noise of laughter and the clash of pottery bowls outside the tent.

"As for that kid, if he is caught by your father this time and then seen by General Li Daozong, maybe he will be punished again this time when he goes back."

After getting up, tidying up his appearance and clothes a little bit, Li Xian replied with a sentence before he lifted the curtain and came out.

Under the bright and clear sky, large and small bonfires were ignited. The soldiers sat around the fire together to keep warm, or put meat on the fire with swords and swords. Some of the hundreds of riders found their old friends in the same army camp happily. Drink freely, and tell the deeds of these days to these soldiers who came late, which caused these soldiers who came later to sigh.

When the group saw Li Xian and Cheng Chumo coming out in cloaks, they hurriedly stood up and saluted, with reverence in their eyes.

With a slight smile on Li Xian's face, he nodded slightly, and went to the hall of the Royal Palace with Cheng Chumo.

In the slightly dim hall, it was illuminated by the torches on the stone pillars, and a pile of exuberant bonfires rose in the center, making the entire hall less chilly.The cattle and sheep sandwiched on the fire are also roasted, glowing yellow and giving off a tempting aroma.

Qin Huaidao, who was sitting at the side of the hall, roughly talked about the excitement, stood up and gesticulated a certain grand scene in the itinerary.Seeing Li Xian approaching, he laughed out loud and got up to greet him.

"Brother Li, come quickly, tell everyone what is the thing that raised black smoke and chopped off the top of the city that day."

The generals beside him who were listening with gusto also came back to their senses and stood up to make room for Li Xian. Li Jing, who was sitting at the head of the account, looked at the unscathed Li Xian, and there was a touch of praise in his delighted eyes.

Cheng Yaojin pushed away Qin Huaidao who was blocking him, laughed and came over and hugged Li Xian's shoulders, approaching the delighted and fat face full of joy, he looked up and down, his eyes looked from Li Xian's long beard skip.

"Grow up! To be able to lead more than a hundred soldiers under his command to flourish, good, good!"

Pulling Li Xian to sit down on the chair by the campfire, leaning affectionately by his side, looking at Li Xian who was saluting the generals with a smile on his face.

"Tell us quickly, what's going on in Stone City?"

"People in the borderlands of the Tang Dynasty say that there is a strange person in our military camp who can summon heavenly thunder and attract gods to help."

"Just tell me, can you demonstrate it to us again, so that we can see what this god is."

Cheng Chumo followed Li Xian and sat down on the vacated seat on the other side, looking at Cheng Yaojin's joyful appearance, he felt a little uncomfortable.

My father treated Li Xian as if he was his own, and I had never seen such a smile twice... He looked enviously at the figure beside him, and there were many words in his heart, which he swallowed hard.

The bonfire in the middle was beeping and burning.

Li Xian took off the fur cloak on his body and put it on the back of the seat. With the slight sound of the armor, he put his arms on his knees, looked around and looked at Li Jing who was also curious in front of the hall.

"Attracting the gods of the heavens, how can this junior have such a wonderful book, the rumors outside are just that they don't know about it."

"While passing through Stone City, I met the patriarch Jiang Tiyan of the Xiqiang tribe. I felt inspired and made a few jars of black gunpowder, and used them at the top of the city by the way."

"The younger generation doesn't have such great ability, praise and praise."

Jiang Tiyan, who was sitting among the generals, had already been introduced to the Tang generals by Qin Huaidao, but after all, he was a new foreigner who had surrendered, and sat obediently at the end to share the meat for the generals.

The inconspicuous figure was generously introduced by Li Xian at this time, and he inadvertently gave himself a share of the groundbreaking achievement.Feeling warm in his heart, he smiled and greeted Li Xian who was looking at him, and put down the silver plate with meat in front of Li Xian.

"Li joined the army, broke through the city with a hundred riders, ran for thousands of miles, and took the Tuyuhun King City with more than ten thousand guards into his pocket. This kind of credit is enough to impress the people of the world."

"Selling medicine stones for most of my life, but I don't know that this thing has such a magical effect. It is ashamed to say that I know as much as a young man."

The words that seemed to be compliments, but in fact they cleverly praised Li Xian again, causing everyone to laugh out loud.

Cheng Yaojin put his arm around Li Xian's shoulder and shook it, pointing at the festive atmosphere coming from outside the hall, with a smile in his eyes.

"Don't be humble, you boy!"

"When it's time to celebrate, you should celebrate. Don't try to hide it like a girl."

"Come on, talk, talk!"

That is to say, it was confirmed that Li Xian made this weapon to defend against the enemy. Instead, Li Jing was not as curious as before. Instead, he considered that such terrifying things should not be easily revealed, let alone mentioned indiscriminately on such occasions.

Interrupting Cheng Yaojin's words with a wave of his hand, Da Ma Jin Dao stroked his knees, and looked in Li Xian's direction with relief.

"If you win, don't be restrained when it's time to celebrate."

"This is what you and the soldiers under your command should have."

"As for the matter of the black powder, it is a military secret, so there is no need to discuss it in detail today. If you are interested, you will be able to see enough when you return to Datang someday."

Suppressing this matter, Li Jing looked around at the generals who were eating meat and listening.

"Although the king's city was captured, Fu Yun escaped from our hands after all. The express horse in the southwest direction delivered a battle report, saying that Fu Yun was beheaded and escorted along with the accompanying tiger riders and some escaped nobles. Coming here, I think it will arrive in a few days.”

"There are still many wandering tribes on this grassland. They used to follow behind Fu Yun, but now they have already formed their own camps. They are also the poisonous roots of the Tang Dynasty in this area."

"In the next few days, I will lead the extremely generals to exterminate these remnants, and by the way, survey the military fortress in Tuyuhun. Li Xian will be in charge of the royal city, and the follow-up matters will be left to you."

Li Xian had mentioned these matters to Li Jing about the selection of a new king before the army went out to battle, but Li Jing was not worried that Li Xian would mess up the matter.

The Marshal entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, Li Xian did not dare to neglect, stood up and bowed his hands in salute.

"Join the army and take orders."
