"Uncle should know this," Li De said, taking out a piece of jade pendant from himself; "This jade pendant was given to me by my father, seeing this jade pendant as my father came in person, uncle, you said that I am not a fake holy decree This jade pendant is indeed a royal thing, but it is also a personal reward from Li Liangzuo, but he did not see the jade pendant such as the emperor personally came to such a jade pendant and did not have a piece of the prince, the jade pendant only played a role in indicating the identity of the prince, and had no other meaning, but here it has become the evidence of Li De's false transmission of the holy decree, Nuo Yichen Xuan does not know this, when Li De took out the jade pendant and said that, Nuo Yichen Xuan immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Uncle, hurry up," Li De hurriedly helped Nuo Yichen Xuan up and said.
After Nuo Yichen Xuan got up, he asked Li De and the others: "The four highnesses are here, I don't know what to do next."
Li De said to Nuo Yichen Xuan: "Our next move is naturally inseparable from the support of my uncle, first of all, we have to train the army and martial arts, I plan to select the elite from the Hengshan Department and the fleeing people to form an army, first of all, for self-protection, and secondly, because the Hengshan area is just on the grain road of the Song army, and if necessary, you can give the Song army a while." ” "Your Highness's idea is good, but this recruitment matter is not something that can be decided by the next person, although I am the big leader of the Hengshan Division, but your Highnesses also know that the Hengshan Department is composed of small tribes in the original Hengshan region, and the recruitment is to recruit men from various tribes, so you must earn the consent of the leaders of each department before recruiting."
Nuo Yichen Xuan said.
"In that case, let my uncle arrange everything," said Lide.
"The four highnesses will stay here first, and then immediately send people to contact the heads of the various departments and come here to discuss the matter."
Nuo Yichen Xuan said to Li De, Li Ke, Li Hao, and Li De.
After the four princes left, the people who followed Nuo Yichen Xuan asked, "My lord, are these four princes really sent by His Majesty or the Empress Mother?"
"How is it possible, even if the imperial court sends someone, it is impossible to send such four hairy children."
"Then they are" "Needless to say, of course, he secretly ran out; In this way, you send someone to Xiping Mansion to send a letter to inform the queen mother of the news that the four princes are here, and now that the Song army is approaching, the queen mother may have personally taken charge of Xiping Mansion. ” "Then the Lord really plans to recruit troops" "Even if the four princes don't come, I have this intention, they came just right, not only can they recruit soldiers justifiably, but also have a group of veterans who can recruit and fight, why not" "After the recruitment, who will command this army?"
"It's okay to let the official govern the place, this leader doesn't have that ability to fight, as for the commander of the army, it's best to hand it over to the six princes; Okay, let's not talk about this for now, you go and arrange it."
"Yes, retire from your duties."
Late at night, Nuo Yichen Xuan specially came to Li De's room, although the two did not see each other much, and one was a prince and the other was a local commander, there was a big gap in their identities; But Nuo Yi Chen Xuan is at least Li De's uncle, in this family-centered era, although the two are not very familiar, but for various reasons, the fate of Li De and Nuo Yi Chen Xuan has long been deeply linked.
"Uncle, why did you come to me so late," Li De asked Nuo Yichen Xuan.
"De'er, you are sixteen years old, and you are not too young, and you have your own opinions; Uncle wants to nominate you as the commander of this army, what do you think?"
said to Li De.
Although Li De is young, he is very wise, Li De asked Nuo Yichen Xuan: "Uncle, you asked me to be the commander, just to let me make more achievements in the war with the Great Song Dynasty, prepare for the future king, and even want me to compete for the crown prince, right?"
I have to say that Li De's words were too direct, and for a while, Nuo Yichenxuan didn't know how to answer, Li De continued: "Sooner or later, the prince will have my share, this can't run, but this prince can't get my turn; You are thinking that you are my uncle is the great leader of the Hengshan Tribe, and I am the supreme military commander of the Hengshan region, what does my father think of this matter?"
"What does Your Highness mean, who will be the commander?"
"No one can be the commander of this commander, and the soldiers and horses recruited are divided into four parts, which are commanded by the four of our brothers, so that the future father and emperor will blame it, and the four of us brothers will bear it together."
"Okay, then do as Your Highness says."
Three days later, Nuo Yifu ushered in a group of people, these people are the leaders of the small tribes, and everyone had an emergency consultation on the same day, but because Li Liangzuo had recruited troops in the Hengshan area many times before, now the young and strong people in the entire Hengshan area have basically gone to the front line, and the aborigines plus the more than 100,000 people who fled are all old and weak women and children, and they have no strength at all, and the soldiers who can be recruited can only barely make up more than 1,500 people, and the soldiers and horses brought by Li De and others can barely make up enough 2,000 people.
That night, Li De, Li Ke, Li Hao, and Li Qing made a blood alliance with the leaders, which was an ancient ritual of the Xia people, and everyone cut off their index and middle fingers, dripped the blood in the wine jar, and then wiped the blood on their foreheads.
Although it is very simple to say, it is a solemn ceremony, and the blood alliance means that they completely put their life and death in the hands of the four brothers Li De, Li Ke, Li Hao, and Li Qing, and from today on, they will take on greater responsibilities.
After the blood alliance, the four Li De brothers led these two thousand soldiers and horses to be stationed near this ancient Wuyan City, which is the necessary place for the Song army to transport grain and grass to the front line from the rear, and during this period of time, a large number of Song army craftsmen went north from here to build a new city at the junction of Youzhou, Xiazhou and Yinzhou.
The reason is that the Song army escorted too many troops with grain and grass, and there were thousands of soldiers and more than 10,000 people every time, and Li De and they were not opponents at all.
Moreover, this newly formed army is not a veteran of the Xia Army, but more of a peasant who has just put down his hoe, and taking them to fight with the Song Army is tantamount to sending them to death, so seeing the Song Army's grain soldiers passing under the mountain, they don't dare to do it, and the anxious Li De always scratches his head, and Li De becomes listless in just a few days.
"Third brother, Lord Nuoyi has sent a letter again, the grain and grass in the rear are almost out of supply, let's quickly find a way to get some from Song Jun's hands."
Li Ke came to Li De's side and said.
"It's easy to say, the Song army's grain and grass are escorted by a large army, even if the security is not very strict, we have no way to start, we have two thousand soldiers and horses in our hands, if they are all lost, the soldiers will not be replenished, fourth brother, let me think about it again."
"Third brother, it's best to make a decision earlier, if this goes on like this, I'm worried that the army's morale will be unstable."
"I know, you will talk about the fifth and sixth brothers in a while, and we will discuss it together."
