Chapter 20: Departure

If we understand it from the literal meaning alone, the "Medical King" is undoubtedly many levels higher than the "Medical Master".

But in fact, Li Yanqing had never heard of Li Duan.

Even during the Daye period, Li Yanqing had never heard of the name Li Duan. Logically speaking, the General of the Left Wu Guard should be famous. But in the past ten years, this person has been unknown, which is surprising.

Changsun Wuji whispered: "Uncle Li is the Prince Yin's man."

Only then did Li Yanqing realize it!

It turned out that Li Duan followed Yang Yong's line, no wonder he was unknown during the Daye period.

In fact, it's not just that.

After everyone sat down, Li Yanqing heard the clue from Changsun Wuji's introduction. In the 20th year of Kaihuang, Emperor Wen of Sui deposed the crown prince Yang Yong and changed Yang Guang to the crown prince. Although Li Duan was Yang Yong's person, he did not suffer much impact.

Because behind Li Duan, there was Yang Su standing.

Therefore, although Yang Yong fell, Li Duan was not affected. Even during the Renshou period, Li Duan cooperated with King Yang Liang of Han to fight against the Turks and made great contributions. However, after that, Li Duan was seriously ill and had to go home to recuperate. However, Emperor Wen of Sui passed away at this time, and King Yang Liang of Han occupied Taiyuan and tried to invite Li Duan to come forward to help.

Yang Liang was defeated and Li Duan was implicated.

But Yang Su came forward to recommend Li Duan to save him from prison.

But even so, Yang Guang did not use him again. Li Duan was also very smart and continued to recuperate at home, and would never talk about his comeback. When Yang Su died of illness, Yang Guang would not use Li Duan. So Li Duan simply retired and retired, and Yang Guang also agreed.

Therefore, the Li Duan brothers were greatly affected by Yang Su.

Li Duan was forced to retire in his early forties, and Li Jing's official career has been ups and downs for more than 20 years, and he was only a Mayi County Magistrate.

After Emperor Yang of Sui fought against Goguryeo three times, the situation was turbulent.

Li Duan took his family and hid in the mountains to take refuge.

It was not until Li Yuan raised an army in Taiyuan that Li Duan returned home.

Then, Li Yanqing launched the battle in Hebei, and quickly solved Dou Jiande with a destructive and destructive force.

Xu Shiji was stationed in Hejian, and Wang was passing by, so he warmly received him. After Wang Wang stepped down from his post as Qilintai, he focused on writing "The Record of the Missing Great Achievements". At the beginning of the year, he finally finished the book and prepared to return home.

In Hejian, Xu Shiji accidentally mentioned Li Jing.

Because Yan Qing once told him in a letter: If the court is good at fighting, it is not the prince, Li Yanqing, and even more so, Xu Shiji.

The one who can truly be called good at fighting and is the first in military tactics is Li Yaoshi.

Xu Shiji was naturally not convinced, so he mentioned Li Jing to Wang. Wang knew Li Jing and was also very familiar with Li Duan.

He said to Xu Shiji: "The best person in the art of war is not a false statement."

Li Yaoshi's plan is never inferior to any master of military strategy in the world. However, Li Yaoshi is the most afraid of one person in his life, namely his brother, Li Duan, Li Yaowang. If ten Li Duans are wise, there is no one Li Jing. However, Li Jing's plan has never been predicted by Li Duan. If the King of Henan wants to plan Li Jing, it would be impossible without the help of the King of Medicine..."

This is the principle of the fact that the tofu is used to reduce the other.

Wang Jun and Li Duan knew each other and had a good relationship.

So after he returned to Taiyuan, he persuaded Li Duan to serve under Xu Shiji first. He would recommend him when he was in the right opportunity.

Li Jing chose Li Shimin, but it does not mean that Li Duan would also choose Li Shimin.

According to the rule of survival of the aristocratic clan "Don't put all the eggs in one basket", Li Duan chose Li Yanqing without hesitation. It was not that he did not want to join Li Jiancheng, but that with his current situation, Li Jiancheng would never pay attention to it.

Li Yanqing, who is famous, would not be wronged by Li Duan.

When he heard that Li Yanqing was going to Lingnan, Xu Shiji and Li Duan discussed it and thought that the time had come, so Li Duan came to Chang'an.

"Mr. Li, Xiao Wang is going to Lingnan here, and the good or bad luck is uncertain.

Moreover, there are many miasma in Lingnan and the environment is very harsh. In fact, you can stay in Chang'an, and someone needs to stay in the palace."

Li Yanqing didn't know what Li Duan had.

However, it is not far behind that those who can become generals during the Renshou period.

You should know that during the Kaihuang and Renshou periods, even the figures such as Zheng Dashi were just generals of the chariots and cavalry in the military palace. Using the official positions during the Daye period to explain it, they were generals of the Eagle Fighting Lang. From this we can see that Li Duan was not casual.

Moreover, Li Yanqing was not disgusted.

Li Duan looks in his early fifties and is in his sixties.

It would be fine to stay in Chang'an. If you arrive in a wilderness such as Lingnan, how could Li Yanqing feel at ease if something unexpected happens?

Li Duan smiled and said, "My good intentions are my heart.

But if the King of Henan thought he was old and could not afford to use it, he would just go home."

"Li Gong is so serious, he is so serious!"

Li Yanqing didn't expect that Li Duan was such a decisive person.

He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Since Mr. Li is willing to accompany him, Xiao Wang can't ask for it!"

Li Duan is a very strong person!

This is also Li Yanqing's initial feeling.

If Li Jing is a Confucian and wise man, then Li Duan is a very pure soldier and has an extremely strong sense of honor.

"When Li Jing was studying, it was also the most glorious period when Han Qinhu Han Laozhuguo was the country.

Therefore, Li Jing never lived in the military, and with the support of Han Laozhuguo, he became a famous teacher and traveled around the world with a wide vision. Later, he was valued by Yang Su, and he was considered smooth sailing when he was a teenager. However, when he grew up, he was implicated because of Yang Su's affairs and was never valued. It was also considered to have been trained in the officialdom."

That night, Li Yanqing and Changsun Wuji chatted in the bamboo building.

Although Yan Qing's reputation is higher than that of Changsun Wuji, he is not as good as Changsun Wuji who grew up in an official family. He knows the secrets in the court well and speaks very well. So Li Yanqing feels that Wuji is particularly excited when talking about gossip.

"Uncle Li Duan's situation is different from Li Jing.

He was nearly ten years older than Li Jing, so he was not as superior as Li Jing when he was young. He joined the army at the age of fourteen and started as a captain, and then promoted step by step. Li Duan really started his career because after Han Qinhu passed away, he was recommended by Shi Wansui and became the commander of the first army. He followed Yang Su, Shi Wansui, Gao Ying, He Ruobi and others, and finally became the general.

It is precisely for this reason that Li Yaowang is not as broad-minded as Li Jing and has no outstanding strategy.

However, this person is in the subtleties. No matter whether he changes his coaches back then, he never made any mistakes. Anything arranged will definitely be done very well. Mr. Wang said that he can control Li Jing, so I think it is because of this."

Details determine the outcome!

Li Yanqing came to the final conclusion.

At the same time, when he went to Lingnan this time, he could avoid many troubles with such an experienced old man.

The most important thing is that Li Duan and the Feng family are also quite intimate.

When Feng Ang first became an official in the Central Plains, he served under Li Duan's account.

In other words, Li Duan is Feng Ang’s old boss. What choice will Feng Ang make? No one can tell at the moment.

However, with Li Duan here, Li Yanqing added a little more confidence.

"If there is an old family, if there is a treasure... Now that I have the King of Medicine, I will be able to win this journey!"

Changsun Wuji knew that Li Yanqing did not refer to Li Duan alone. Especially the previous few words were more praising Wang Xu.

If it weren't for Wang Zhu, I'm afraid Li Duan wouldn't have come to vote easily.

After Li Yuan appointed Li Yanqing, he soon issued another imperial edict, ordering Li Shimin to control the world's troops and the governor to fight against Pingnan.

At the end of September, Li Shimin led his troops to set off for Kuizhou.

For a moment, the eyes of all the people in the world focused on Li Shimin.

On the third day after Li Shimin left Chang'an, a group of people surrounded a group of carriages, stepped on the morning light at dawn, and quietly headed south from Yanxingmen...
