The deputy general immediately turned around and ordered his soldiers to light up five hundred men and horses and prepare to set off.
"Master Li, please wait for a moment. There is a war with the Marquis, and I will go to pick him up right away."
Young men like Jiayi and Liu Yang are at the age where they are not afraid of anything, and they have the power to hold their own. I couldn't help but start making trouble at this time.
The two of them grabbed Li Laosi's arm and said, "Uncle, let's go and take a look, okay?"
How could Li Laosi not understand what they were thinking? To be honest, he felt itchy in his heart.
After hesitating for a while, he finally said, "General, can you prepare three horses and three swords for us, and we will go to greet the marquis. General, don't worry, we have all killed barbarians, and we will not be a drag on everyone." "
The general didn't wait for a response. Jiayi was afraid that he wouldn't agree, so he turned his head and raised the carriage a foot high.
The lieutenant general stared in shock. You must know that the fully loaded carriage weighed three hundred kilograms, and it was just lifted up by a half-grown boy. Looking at this boy, his face was not red, and his heart was not beating!
"Okay, follow me closely on the road. If you are injured, I can't explain it to the Marquis."
The deputy general agreed, which made Li Laosi and the two boys extremely happy.
Soon, three horses and three long knives were brought over. Li Laosi and the two boys got on their horses and ran away with the team.
At first, Li Laosi and the two boys were a little uncomfortable riding on the horse. After all, they usually rode mules, which was a little different from riding horses.
But the three of them quickly adapted, ran all the way to the pier, got on the boat, and quickly rushed to the other side.
Ye Shan guarded the carriage and saw the large group of people running away, feeling worried and amused at the same time.
He, a serious personal attendant of the Marquis, has become a coachman watching the carriages...
Li Laosi and the others don't care about this, or they don't care anymore.
As soon as they got off the boat, everyone started galloping and quickly arrived at the place of battle.
There were more than three hundred barbarians and four to five hundred of the border guards. It could be said that they were evenly matched. However, the border guards had the upper hand because the Marquis was brave and kept charging forward, which boosted their morale.
The barbarians did not expect the reinforcements from the border guards to arrive so quickly, so they hurriedly withdrew their troops, only to be quickly entangled by the reinforcements and made dumplings.
Li Laosi was born with supernatural power. Even if he faced a tough barbarian and slashed him with a knife, no one could resist him.
Jiayi and Liu Yang were quite cautious. They took care of each other. When they saw barbarians, they would usually fight one by one. Therefore, they were not injured and instead killed two barbarians.
The deputy general looked at it from a distance and breathed a sigh of relief.
When he found an opportunity and reached the Marquis' side, he loudly reported.
"Master Marquis, people from Ye Shan and the Li family are here to bring you something. I heard that you want reinforcements, so Mr. Li brought two boys over to help."
Mr. Ye dealt with the barbarians in front of him, turned around and saw that indeed Li Laosi and Jiayi Liu Yang was here, and the three of them were inextricably linked to killing the barbarians, so they had no intention of paying attention to him.
He was a little funny. Normally, the Li family's aunt was worried about their safety and wouldn't allow them to leave home. But now that she came here to catch up with the war, she actually let them eat meat!
Thinking like this, he slowly moved closer and looked after them on one side, for fear that they would be injured in an accident.
Soon, most of the barbarians were killed. Seeing that something bad was going on, the remaining half fled desperately, leaving behind more than a dozen corpses.
Don't chase the poor bandits, let alone here in Jiangbei.
Mr. Ye also ordered the troops to be withdrawn, quickly cleaned the battlefield, then carried the injured soldiers and boarded the boat back to the south bank.
The wounded soldier was carried down for treatment. Young Master Ye led everyone into his tent, and then he took some time to talk to Li Laosi, "Brother Four, why are you here? How is your family?"
Li Laosi heard Mr. Ye say this I was very happy to be called, but also a little scared.
On weekdays, Mr. Ye always calls me aunt, and his daughter calls her uncle all the time. To be honest, the family does treat Mr. Ye as a family.
But Mr. Ye's identity here is too noble, and no one dares to really treat him as a brother.
But Mr. Ye didn't care about this and called him that in private.
After all, Li Laosi had a forthright temperament. He didn't hesitate for too long and answered directly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Hou, everything at home is fine. My mother has been thinking about you a few days ago and asked Hongying to cook a lot of food, thinking of sending it to you. But there are things at home that have been delayed. The cold melons and cold melons were dragged to the field. The cantaloupes are ripe, and we just picked some, so we brought them together."
"Cold melons and cantaloupes ripen so quickly? It's only been three months since they were planted, right?" Mr. Ye was also happy and asked, "Are they available for sale? ? This thing is expensive. I didn't see many of it when I was in Kyoto. I must not sell it cheaply."
"Mrs. Cui helped find the eldest man of the Liu family to be responsible for selling it. In addition, the old man of the Liu family and Mr. Wen also brought the village chief and The second brother went to the palace to make a donation. The emperor rewarded the name, and now it is famous, and everyone is rushing to buy it. But the family is afraid of attracting jealousy, so they only have to pay a similar price, and the rest will be given to the eldest son of the Liu family. You can't let people work in vain."
Li Laosi said it honestly. Mr. Ye kept nodding his head. He really wanted to talk for a while, but he had just gone through a war and there were always some things to arrange.
He then said, "You guys have a rest first. I'll go to the wounded barracks and have a look. I'll be back soon."
"Master Marquis, let's go and wash up. We smell of blood. If someone in the family smells it, we'll be fine in the future. " Don't even think about it." Li Laosi immediately agreed, then took the excited Jiayi and Liu Yang and followed the guards to take a shower.
When he came back, Mr. Ye had not finished handling his official duties.
They ordered two small stoves and started cooking lunch in front of Mr. Ye's tent.
Add water to a pot, boil the dry noodles, add cold water, put it into a bowl, add the meat sauce brought from home, add some cucumber shreds and coriander, mix it up, it is very hungry and refreshing, perfect for a summer like this.
Open a jar of meat, pour half of it into the pot, and add a few handfuls of green beans. There is no need to add any other seasonings. After stewing, sprinkle a handful of chopped green onions and it's ready to serve.
The brown-red meat was already cooked, and after being stewed for so long, it was completely soft. When I carefully picked up a piece, it was trembling on the tips of the chopsticks, as if it was about to break at any moment.
There are also beans wrapped in soup, which are shiny and oily, making people salivate after just one look.
Not to mention the Marquis's soldiers guarding the tent, even the patrolling soldiers passing by couldn't help but stretch their necks to take a few more glances, and wiggle their noses to take a few more whiffs of the aroma.
When Young Master Ye came back from outside, he saw that Li Laosi had received Jiayi and Liu Yang was busy, so he couldn't help but slow down.
He is a Marquis and a cousin of the Emperor, so he is naturally rich and luxurious. He wears silks and satins and eats delicacies from the mountains and seas.
There are countless people who want to win over him and please him.
But his love for the Li family is definitely not unreasonable.
The Li family sewed him clothes because they were really worried that he would be cold and tried their best to keep him warm.
The Li family arranged for him to eat because they really wanted him to be well fed.
The Li family cares about him and truly hopes that he will be safe.
What is rare is this unadulterated sincerity, which is more precious than anything in the world.
