Chapter Three Hundred and Fortieth Brothers Gathering
After eating a full meal, Li Yi took a hot bath and went back to his room to message.
Although Mrs. Wang had thousands of things to say to her son, seeing how tired he was, she had no choice but to endure it.
Early the next morning, Li Yi got up early to study as usual.
It's not that he doesn't want to sleep a little longer. If possible, Li Yi would also like to sleep for three to three hours a day to be lazy and comfortable. But now he doesn't have enough homework and has many things to do during the day. If he doesn't study early in the morning, it would be a waste.
Fortunately, Li Yi has now developed a habit. No matter how tired he was the day before, he must get up early the next morning, so it is not so painful.
After reviewing the two lessons, Ms. Wang also got up early. Seeing her son getting up so early and studying so hard, his face was full of joy.
No matter how powerful and talented Li Yi is now, the Wang family still hopes that her son can achieve fame and bring glory to his ancestors, which cannot be bought with money and power.
As soon as Li Yi came back, the whole Li Mansion suddenly became lively. Mrs. Wang was like a white goose protecting its young. She stayed by Li Yi's side. Even when cooking, she would come out to see her son studying.
.
In fact, everyone knows that Li Yi will eventually leave Baoding Prefecture. His stage is definitely not to scheming with big officials at the local level. His stage is the court, which is the center of the world. After all, Baoding Prefecture cannot accommodate An Xin Qianlong.
Li Yi drank millet porridge from the bowl, while Wang sat aside and said, "Although your child has read and become bookish, he still devours the food."
"You should have time to chew carefully when you eat carefully. How can your son be so leisurely?" Li Yi took the handkerchief handed over by his mother and wiped his lips.
"But eating like this will hurt your stomach. Let me ask you, why are you in such a hurry every day? Aren't there people taking care of the affairs of Anxin and Fuguoshe? Can't you study hard?" Wang said to her son.
Very dissatisfied with the explanation.
Li Yi looked at Mrs. Wang helplessly. His mother was fine in everything, but she became a little childish when it came to things she had worked hard for.
While the two were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door.
The person outside knocked on the door and shouted: "Is our little benefactor back? Open the door quickly, I am Li Si."
Just as she was watching her son having a good meal, someone suddenly interrupted her, and no one was happy. Ms. Wang even walked out angrily, and opened the door with a bang, startling Li Si and others outside.
Seeing the angry Wang, Li Si, who had been so careless just now, shrank his head like a mouse meeting a cat, with a flattering smile on his face.
"Aunt, is Li Yi back?"
At this time, Li Yi had already come out of the hall. Wang nodded helplessly, glared at Li Si fiercely, and said: "It doesn't matter, you are all people who have to do things, and the old woman is superfluous here."
After saying this, Li Si was so frightened that he almost cried. Who doesn't know that Li Yi is most filial to his mother. If he makes her angry, will there be any good fruits in the future?
Li Si hurriedly stepped forward to support Wang, licking his face and said: "What are you talking about, aunt? If there was no aunt to take care of Xinxue, would Anxin be so organized now? In the future, not only can you not ignore it, but also more
No matter what."
Wang was obviously very happy after hearing this. She was most afraid of becoming a useless person. If a person is useless, he will be disliked wherever he goes.
Li Si made Wang family happy, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, not caring about the disdainful eyes of Zhang San and others behind him.
"Okay, okay. I know you still have more important things to do, so Auntie won't entertain you anymore." After saying this, Mrs. Wang dragged Xiaoyu away. After taking two steps, she glared at Li Yi and said, "Today
Don’t forget to come back for dinner tonight.”
This is an order, not a reminder. Li Yi smiled with a mouth full of teeth and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "My son must come back for dinner!"
After Wang left, Li Si was able to enter the courtyard gate and muttered: "Fortunately, I was smart enough today, otherwise I would have almost lost my life."
"That's right, that's right, your grin was so big that it could fit into your fist, it's really disgusting!" Zhang San joked.
"Hey, are you still talking about me?" Li Si refused to be outdone and said, "Who beat up my aunt's student and hid in the military camp for half a month without daring to come back? If you can beat someone, don't be a coward.
"
Zhang San was stabbed so hard that his cheeks turned red, so he had no choice but to stab Li Si hard.
Ignoring these live treasures, Li Yi entered the hall and asked directly: "How is the matter in Taihang Mountain going?"
Zhang Mingde is in charge of this matter, so of course he has to answer it.
Zhang Mingde had already prepared the report and said directly: "This time we took over more than 30 cottages and resettled about 20,000 people. But these are the old, weak, sick and disabled, and many young and strong bandits have gone to other places.
Shanzhai. It can be seen that the thieves in Taihang Mountain are quite xenophobic."
"Be xenophobic as long as you are anti-foreign. No one can become fat with just one bite. As long as I gain a firm foothold, that will be enough," Li Yi said.
"Speaking of xenophobia, it actually means who has the biggest fist. In fact, according to me, we should have killed Yue Bufan and others at that time to see who else dared to go against us." Li Si shouted.
"Ha, you are smart. Kill Yue Bufan and kill those more than ten thousand bandits. The remaining people in Taihang Mountain will drink your blood and skin you." Wang Kui said loudly.
Li Si was not willing to be outdone, and the two quarreled.
Seeing the two people blushing and looking angry, the others did not stop them. Everyone knew that Li Si and Wang Kui had a good relationship, so arguing like this would not hurt the friendship, but would enhance their friendship.
"Now is not the time to show our strength." Li Yi looked at everyone, with the majesty of a superior person already on his body, "We don't want much, and Yue Bufan doesn't pay much. There is nothing between us.
Hatred.”
Zhang Mingde put on his armor and said, "What the brigade commander means is that we can cooperate with Yue Bufan?"
Li Yi nodded with satisfaction.
"Although the Taihang Mountains stretch for thousands of miles and have gorgeous products, there are county officials at every strategic place that blocks traffic. The bandits can only hide in the mountains, unable to farm and herd, and cannot barter. They are like people trapped in the mountains and forests.
It is difficult for savages to live a sustainable life, so why should we spend so much money to seize their territory?"
In his eyes, Taihang Mountain does not have much value at all. It is really not worth spending countless money, food and life to seize it from the bandits on the mountain. The reason why he intervened in Taihang Mountain was just to leave an escape route for himself.
Conquering the entire Taihang Mountains, at least now, there is no such plan.
"I deeply agree with what the brigade commander said." Zhang Mingde said with a serious face: "To us, the Taihang Mountains are indeed of little value. And even if we want to conquer the bandits in the Taihang Mountains, I'm afraid it won't be easy.
."
"Old Zhang, are you worried about that Yue Bufan?" Wang Kui said.
Zhang Mingde nodded and said: "That's true. Yue Bufan is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also skilled in military tactics. It is really not something ordinary people can do that he can lead a mob of 50,000 people to tie with the officers and soldiers led by Ma Shiying. Moreover, Qi Sha, the leader of his horse army,
Mu Xiao is brave and good at fighting. He actually led an army of 500 cavalry against 2,000 frontier troops and managed to retreat. With these two people here, it will be impossible for us to subdue the bandits in the Taihang Mountains."
"Haha, you are very skilled in martial arts, brave and good at fighting. I would like to learn from him." Li Si was born with supernatural powers, and later, under the guidance of Mr. Li, his martial arts improved rapidly. Now hearing Zhang Mingde praise Yue Bufan and Qi Shamu so highly, he was a little unconvinced.
"You are not their opponent." Li Yi said calmly: "I have never learned Yue Bufan's martial arts, but Sun Yaowen once said that he is the number one master in Baoding Mansion. I am afraid he has already reached the level of a half-step master. To be honest, I have not even learned it.
Faith can overcome him.”
Hearing that even the brigade commander was not confident enough to defeat Yue Bufan, Li Si suddenly withered. You must know that he could not even go thirty rounds under Li Yi.
"What about Qi Shamu? Is this person better than you, the brigade commander?" Li Si still refused to give up.
Li Yi looked at him like this, shook his head with some sympathy and said: "Qi Shamu, I can beat him, but his horse fighting is very strong, I am afraid that even Zhu Qilong will be difficult to defeat, let alone you."
