Chapter 283: Complaining Bitterly
With Tang Hualong's guarantee, Li Shimin immediately and unceremoniously took over the defense of the camp. First of all, he let the three emperors and grandsons join forces in one place.
Although Yan Wang Yang Qi and others are underage, they each have a large family of people, and there are as many as thirty or fifty slaves and maids under their hands - this is because this is a winter hunt, and they must be 'light and simple'. In normal times, less than a hundred attendants are considered to be more frugal among the Sect Masters of the Near Branch.
So before this, these three emperors and grandsons were all independent battalions. However, this will undoubtedly increase the burden on them when guarding, and it will not be conducive to the deployment of manpower.
And after being concentrated in one place, although there may be some inconvenience in life, you can really pinch your fist in everything,
It can be seen that the attendants around the three emperors and grandsons are very dissatisfied with Li Shimin's arrangement. It is the king of Yue and the king of Dai, and there is no shortage of complaints. Although they are brothers, they are still a little uncomfortable after living together. But as the eldest brother, King Yan strongly supported Li Shimin's initiative.
He is the intended heir of the Son of Heaven, and he can know more or less about some things that others in front of His Majesty can't know, and he vaguely knows the current situation, which is not very safe. And Li Shimin's move, although it is suspected of making a big fuss, is by no means unnecessary.
Later, Li Shimin placed his own army, which had expanded to 150 people, and several of his own worshippers, near the camp tent of King Yan.
As for the elite of the four hundred embroidered guards, they were arranged to the corners of the inner perimeter, far away from his own army.
He is actually not very at ease with these embroidered guards. Therefore, after getting the will this time, he directly put these hidden dangers away from the big tent of King Yan to reduce the risk.
These pro-soldiers under Li Shimin are all cultivators above the seventh grade. Most of them have been practiced by Fan Shixing and Li Xin for half a year, which is already of great use. Once they form a battle, it will be difficult for three or five of them to break through their defenses.
With them as a firewall, no matter what kind of accident happens to those people in the embroidered clothes, it is difficult to threaten the three emperors and grandsons at the first time.
In fact, Li Shimin still wanted to isolate the personal guards of the three emperors and grandsons with as many as 90 people, but he knew that this was impossible. can only let Fan Shixing, Li Xin and others keep an eye on them, paying attention to their abnormal behavior.
Unsurprisingly, Li Shimin's arrangement also angered the people who embroidered the clothes.
These inner court pro-soldiers, the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, rely on their own authority, and they have always looked at people with their eyes above the top and slanted eyes. Usually five or six rank generals are not in their eyes.
This time, Li Shimin was so despised, and even rejected and guarded, you can imagine what kind of mood these people have.
However, Li Shimin's holy family is strong, and you can get a glimpse of one or two things just from this person who can always take charge of guarding the palace here, and second, with the help and pressure of Tang Hualong, so although these embroidered clothes guards feel dissatisfied, they dare not make a mistake. can only change the guard according to Li Shimin's arrangement.
After that, the formation was arranged, because the three emperors and grandsons were arranged by him in one place, and the two Turkic princes were also personally invited by Li Shimin to settle near the big tent of King Yan, which made those few feudal true monarchs have to temporarily change their course and redesign the rune array.
However, these people were not dissatisfied with Li Shimin's arrangement, but they all looked relieved.
"Li Zhige's move really saved us a lot of trouble. These people were distributed everywhere before, and it was really difficult to arrange, not only did the materials for the formation have to be consumed at least 1.6 million yuan, but also at least nine array eyes and 132 spiritual corpses had to be surveyed, which was extremely troublesome. And in my opinion, even if this array is barely arranged, it is estimated that the usefulness is limited, and it does not show our ability. If one is not good, it will be condemned for it. Now that Li Zhige is in charge, we only need to take care of one place, not only can we reduce the ability of a day by fifty percent, but also shorten the time of the array, the key is that the defensive ability of this array can be greatly improved. ”
On King Yan's side, there is also a true monarch in charge, this person's name is Zhang Kongming, and he is titled the Five Thunder God Lie Zhenjun.
As soon as you hear this name and title, you know that this is the descendant of the Heavenly Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain, the descendant of Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of the Heavenly Master.
According to the information given by Ye Ruo, this is a sorcerer who has cultivated to a first-class level, is proficient in the Five Thunder Rectification Method, and has strong combat power. Even if you fight Wu Xiu in close quarters, you won't suffer.
Li Shimin tentatively put forward a suggestion: "Zhang Zhenjun, in the opinion of the lower officials, it is best to focus on the thunder method and the yang flame technique in this formation. ”
"Thunder Law and Yang Flame Technique?"
Zhang Kongming pondered: "Is it too much to focus on the method of destroying evil? How sure are you?"
Li Shimin's eyes were surprised, he didn't expect this Zhang Zhenjun to be so keen, and he also replied unequivocally: "Ninety!"
When Li Shimin said this, he looked outside with deep meaning: "If it is a normal enemy, these forbidden troops under my command will naturally be able to deal with it." But if it's evil or something, you have to borrow the power of Zhang Zhenjun and others. ”
This man didn't come alone, but moved in with a whole team. Among them, there are as many as four of the second to third grade of the feudal real person, and there are about thirty of the fourth to fifth grade Yushi.
And without exception, they were all born in the Heavenly Master Mansion of Longhu Mountain.
The vast majority of monastic sects have agreements with the imperial court, and they send people to work for the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven allows him to continue the Taoist lineage.
And the Heavenly Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain, although it is the ancestral court of the Zhengyi Sect, there is no exception.
"In fact, Ambassador Fang Cai Wang also suggested that we prefer the method of destroying evil. Since even Li Zhige said so, there should be no mistake. ”
After Zhang Kongming finished speaking, he smiled conceitedly: "Zhige, don't underestimate our ability, I will naturally prepare the method of destroying evil, but I will not abandon the battlefield fighting technique this time, Zhige will wait for us to do it!"
"It's best to be so natural. ”
Li Shimin laughed: "Then the junior, just sit and wait for Zhenjun to show his talents." ”
And that night, Li Shimin got a few more helpers who were not weak, with a total of two, respectively from the embroidered clothes guard and the martial arts Li family.
On the side of the embroidered guard, there are two embroidered generals, named Gong Yuanji and Wei Ruo, who were arranged by Wang Chonggu to be Tang Yuanhua's deputy, so naturally they also had to obey Li Shimin's orders.
Both of them are first-grade powerhouses, their strength is much stronger than Sima Liancheng, and their status in the embroidered clothes guard is also higher, and they are the candidates for embroidered clothes. Especially Gong Yuanji, with a murderous aura all over his body, his eyes are like knives, making it impossible for people to look directly.
Li Shimin had just heard the names of these two people, and knew that these were Wang Chonggu's henchmen, which was relatively credible and his ability was not bad.
The embroidered ambassador was probably worried that the strength of the three emperors and grandsons was insufficient, so he sent his right-hand man over.
Among them, Gong Yuanji narrowly escaped death not long ago, but more than 100 of his subordinates died on the slave ship, and they were in a bad mood, which is understandable.
Then his father, Li Yuan, worried that there might be a leak on his side, also sent him three people. One is the 'Second Elder True Fu' he is very familiar with, Li Shizhen and Li Shifu brothers, and the other is his sixth cousin Li Xiaoji, who is a first-class master and a top marksman.
Although this one does not have a divine armor on his body, but in terms of archery, this one is much stronger than his father Li Yuan.
At this time, Li Shimin had already made up his mind, calculating the power that could be dispatched in his hands, there were six first-grade dragon blood battle puppets, as well as six shadow guards who were close to the strength of first-grade generals, six second-rank strength palace guards, and ninety fifth-grade palace guards.
This is just the entourage of the three Yan Wang, on the side of the embroidered guard, there is also Tang Hualong, a super-grade master, and the combat power of Gong Yuanji and Wei Ruo is also considerable, and the four hundred embroidered clothes are elite, and all of them have seven-grade cultivation.
It's a pity that the embroidered clothes guard battle formation is not fine, otherwise such a force can match the government army of about 10,000 people on the battlefield.
Then there is Zhang Kongming's Dragon and Tiger Mountain Sorcerer Regiment - there is no need to doubt it. As long as there is enough force to cover it, this force can easily destroy the army of 10,000 people with magic.
And Li Shimin himself is also very strong. Li Xiaoji, a first-class god, is very good, and the two elders of Zhenfu, as well as Li Xin, Shi Luosha, Dou Zhongxian, and Yang Yun are all deeply trusted by Li Shimin.
The pro-army directly under one hundred and fifty people is the trump card in his hands. With this force, no matter where there is an internal ghost, he has enough strength to suppress the situation,
It's just that his subordinate Daye Hall and Iron Cavalry seem to be more resentful. After Li Shimin obtained the holy decree, he intensified his efforts, not only digging three layers of trenches five zhang deep outside the camp here, but also building a layer of earthen walls about three and a half zhang high and four zhang thick outside, reinforced with steel plates carried by the army, and two layers of thick bluestone piled up in the middle, and the defense capability was extremely considerable.
In addition to being conducive to the ink armor shooting on the wall, this earthen wall also has a shooting hole every three zhang, and the shooting hole is a ten-armed giant crossbow assembled by them, which is daunting.
Inside the camp, there are dense horses and antlers, twists and turns. Neither the Iron Cavalry nor the Ink Armor could smoothly assault the depths after breaking into the camp.
What made everyone speechless was that their Zhige General, Captain Wu Meng, and Du Youjun also seemed to have a very serious defensive mentality. On both sides of the camp, ditches were also built to separate them from friendly forces on both sides.
The key is the wall, which is still unusually tall and strong, and it is more careful than the frontal defense facilities.
And after this busyness, everyone complained bitterly, and there were undisguised complaints everywhere.
Everyone felt that Li Shimin was crazy and had done too much, but the next morning, when the Son of Heaven took Yu Wenshu and others to inspect in person, he was quite satisfied.
And Yuwenshu is a very great general, and he is also full of praise for Li Shimin's arrangements.
