Li Shimin

"So, can Xuan Ba ​​be the shepherd of Yongzhou and govern the entire land of Yongzhou?"

After thinking for a while, Li Shimin said slowly, "Since Yuanjing went to Goguryeo, no one can be the shepherd of Yongzhou!"

"No!"

Li Xuan shook his head again and again.

"Why?" Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, I hate evil like an enemy, and I can't see those officials and aristocratic families oppressing the people! If I were allowed to be the shepherd of Yongzhou, I'm afraid that in less than a month, I would lead my soldiers to kill those corrupt officials and aristocratic families. They were all hacked to pieces!"

Li Xuan said bitterly.

Hearing this, Li Shimin's face froze, and he never mentioned this matter again.

Although Yongzhou is the land of Gyeonggi, there are many dignitaries and officials, as well as aristocratic families.

Correspondingly, things that oppress the people often happen.

If Li Xuan was allowed to be the shepherd of Yongzhou, the entire capital city would really be bloody!

Datang, maybe messed up too!

"Okay, Your Majesty should organize those aristocratic families to build concrete roads and build giant steel ships. As long as I become rich, many things will be easily resolved!"

Li Xuan smiled slightly and said slowly.

Li Shimin nodded subconsciously.

Ok?

Suddenly, after regaining his senses, he looked at Li Xuan in a daze. Does this mean he is pushing someone away?

"Do you have any questions, Your Majesty?"

Li Xuan was a little puzzled.

"..."

Li Shimin took a long breath, he was sure that Li Xuan was really pushing him out this time.

However, Li Shimin was full of excitement when he thought of the future prosperity of the Tang Dynasty that Li Xuan had described to him.

"I want to go back early to discuss the future grand occasion of my Great Tang with all the ministers, so I will go back to the palace first!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Li Xuan sent Li Shimin out of the other courtyard with a happy face all the way.

And this time, all the farmers, servants, and personal guards in the village have finished eating the hot pot.

Everyone walked around the village with joy on their faces.

Li Xuan called Li Chang to his side, told Li Chang that a group of chefs would come to Li's village to learn hot pot tomorrow, and then went back to prepare to wash.

Although the hot pot tastes very delicious, after eating, the smell all over the body is very uncomfortable.

……

"Your Majesty!"

Just after dark, Li Chang approached Li Xuan again.

"What's the matter?"

"My lord, eating hot pot in the village today seems to have attracted some beasts from the mountains!"

Li Chang said, "The twenty puppies in the village have always been irritable. Moreover, the pigs, chickens and ducks in the village are also very disturbed in the circle!"

"If that's the case, there should be wild beasts touching the hills near the village!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, "Have all the farmers and guards put on armor, take muskets, arrow bombs, steel knives and other weapons, and prepare to hunt beasts at night!"

"In the cold winter, the wild beasts in the mountains are short of food, so they often run down the mountain. In addition, it snowed heavily yesterday, and the whole village is eating hot pot today. It must have attracted all the wild beasts from the surrounding mountains!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, it's just a group of wild beasts in the mountains. No matter how many times they come, I can keep them in Li Family Village and become the meat of the village!" Li Chang said.

"It's natural!"

Li Xuandao: "Tell the dealers, cheer up tonight and start catching meat!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang responded and walked out.

Soon, the whole village became lively.

In every household, all men over the age of 16 wear the strongest clothes and hold spears and steel knives. The guards are all in armor, 200 of them are holding muskets, 200 of them are arrow bombs, and steel Knife, as for the remaining 500 people, it is steel lance.

Of the nearly 2000 people, 500 were sent out to guard the glass greenhouse.

As for the remaining 500 people, they came to the hog pen, chicken pen, and duck pen in mighty force to guard.

When the beasts in the mountains come out, they must be heading towards these groups of chickens, ducks and hogs.

Moreover, there are still a lot of bombs buried in many mountains, and the roads cannot be seen clearly in the dark. The farmers in the Li Family Village generally do not enter the mountains easily.

"Dare to ask your majesty, what happened? But there are thieves coming to attack?"

Just as Li Xuan led Li Chang and others to guard the door of the chicken, duck and pig pen, more than 50 scholars including Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang ran over with nervous expressions.

"It's not a thief, it's a mountain beast!"

Li Xuan replied casually.

"Mountain Beast?"

Hearing this, the expressions of Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and other scholars all changed slightly.

……

Chapter 780 The Herd Attacks

Looking around, Qiu Shuye quickly suggested again.

"My lord, since we are wild beasts, why don't we light a fire? The wild beasts are afraid of fire, so those wild beasts dare not come down the mountain!"

"nonsense!"

Li Xuan glared at Qiu Shuye.

All the guards and tenants around looked at Qiu Shuye with strange faces.

"Your Majesty?"

Qiu Shuye was taken aback.

"These beasts are the meat of my Li family village. Since they are here, how can we scare them away?"

Li Xuan explained.

"Your Majesty wants to keep all those beasts? But, only rely on these people in the village?"

Qiu Shuye dared not believe it.

"Why can't you stay?"

Li Xuan snorted softly, "Wait for a group of scholars to stand aside and watch from afar how this king will keep those beasts that dare to come to my Lijiazhuang behind!"

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate us. Although we are scholars, we can also ride and shoot!"

Qiu Shuye said quickly.

"Also ask the king to give me weapons such as knives and guns!"

Around, a group of scholars nodded repeatedly.

"Do you know how to use muskets?"

Li Xuan glanced at these scholars, and asked quietly: "Or, can you use arrows to drop bombs, or can you lift a horse, or can you wear armor?"

Hearing this, Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and the others couldn't help but look at each other.

"Okay, just wait and watch from behind!"

Li Xuan sneered, then stopped talking, staring at the dark mountain.

Seeing this, Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and the others had a hint of dissatisfaction in their eyes, and wanted to say something else.

However, Li Chang and a few personal guards beside him looked at them coldly, and they quickly shut up.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

In the chicken, duck and hog circle, there was even more restlessness.

"coming!"

Zheng Fu, who was at the front, had a gleam in his eyes, and then walked back.

"My lord, they are here!"

"Prepare them all for me, as long as they are not allowed to enter the poultry pen or the village, they can be shot freely!" Li Xuan ordered.

In fact, the walls of the chicken, duck and hog pens are all high concrete walls with a height of one foot, and there are spikes on the walls, so no wild animals can easily enter.

"Yes!"

Ma Xi, Zheng Fu and others responded in unison.

Immediately, he clenched the steel spear in his hand and walked in front of the team.

Everyone waited quietly.

Soon, on the hill ahead, there was a sound of intensive friction, coming towards them.

When he felt these voices approaching ten steps away from him, Li Xuan gave the order directly.

"The arrow misses the bomb!"

"Light the torch and illuminate the surroundings!"

"Archers free to shoot and kill!"

"Horse thorn!"

……"Whizzing……"

"Boom... Boom..."

As flames flashed across the surroundings, flames splashed all over the hillside ahead.

A scream came out along with the roar.

At the same time, a handful of torches were thrown forward, and everyone in the Li family village could see the scene on the hillside clearly.

There are at least two hundred gray wolves densely packed.

On the side, there are four fierce tigers, more than 20 black-faced men, two blind bears, more than ten big black cats, and even a large herd of antelopes...

Seeing these, Li Xuan couldn't help being stunned.

What are the antelopes here for?

However, at this time, he couldn't allow him to think too much.

As soon as the bomb exploded and the torch was lit, stimulated by the smell of blood, the whole herd immediately became irritable, and rushed towards Li Xuan and the others.

Li Xuan also directly picked up a steel spear and walked to the front.

"Kill, with so much meat, this year's festival, everyone in the village can improve their meat!"

"Don't worry, my lord, none of these beasts can escape!"

Zheng Fu laughed loudly.

Surrounded by the guards, there was no tension at all.

Basically, every personal guard is wearing armor, holding steel knives and steel lances, even if they are one-on-one with these animals, they are not afraid at all, not to mention that there are hundreds of farmers behind them holding bows and arrows. Strong archery.

As for the arrow missing the bomb, after shooting a round, it stopped and did not continue.

However, when some black bears, tigers, and black-faced men run around, they will step on some bombs buried in the ground, and they will explode twice from time to time.

This made Li Xuan, Ma Xi and everyone in the Li family village feel distressed.

There were only four to five hundred mountain animals in total, and dozens of them ran away early because they saw that the momentum was wrong.
