Chapter 138 Tongguan

This time, Li Yuanba ate most of the ginseng, and as soon as he practiced with Zou Yu, he felt something extraordinary, a gentle heat continued to spread in his stomach, and with the practice, his whole body had a warm feeling, and the energy of his body seemed to be extraordinarily sufficient.

Half an hour later, the two stopped, Zou Yu was secretly surprised, Li Yuanba definitely didn't practice this set of punches and feet, just practiced with him, and the movements were completed without any mistakes.

"Yuanba, since you have been locked up, who did you learn kung fu from?" Zou Yu asked curiously.

"No one taught me, since I was a child, when I was crazy, I would grab things and smash them, and then Li Yuan asked people to lock me up with this pair of hammers, and after a few years, I was able to pick up the hammer and play with it, and once after I woke up, I was locked in an iron cage." Li Yuanba grabbed his hair and said.

"Maybe it's genius." Zou Yu said secretly, seeing Li Yuanba like this, his strength is much greater than his own, and it is estimated that it should be a genetic mutation.

"Every time you eat ginseng in the future, you will punch once, don't practice at other times, if you can use this hammer, you won't need it." Zou Yu admonished.

"Hmm." Although Li Yuanba has been in a mess for more than ten years, now his mind is clear, his mind is pure, and he can feel Zou Yu's kindness.

"See the General!" Just then, a guard came in and clasped his fists and saluted.

"What's the matter?"

"Someone from Youzhou, ask to see the general." The guard replied.

"Yuanba, you have a good rest, I asked the imperial doctor to catch the tonic for you, plus ginseng, you won't die so easily." Zou Yu said with a smile.

"Hmm." Li Yuanba felt a warmth in his heart, nodded in response, looked at the back of Zou Yu leaving, he couldn't help but reach out and rub his red eyes, and then turned around and walked back to the house, he didn't want people to see tears flowing from the corners of his eyes.

"My subordinate Youzhou Sima Wen Dalin has seen the general." The person who came was an elegant middle-aged man, and when he saw Zou Yu coming in, he immediately got up and took the first two steps to salute.

"Why did Wen Sima come alone? Could it be that something happened in Youzhou? Zou Yu asked.

"Fang Lao knew that his subordinates were from Taiyuan, so he asked his subordinates to hurry up and come to the general's account to listen to the order." Wen Dalin explained.

"Taiyuan people, could it be that Wen Sima is a member of the Wen family in Taiyuan?" Zou Yu asked.

"Subordinates exactly." Wen Dalin said with a wry smile.

"Wen Dayou, Wen Wuyin?"

"Wen Dayou is the third brother of his subordinates, and Wen Wuyin is the only son of the eldest brother Wen Daya." Wen Dalin explained.

"The city of Taiyuan was broken, and a group of officials under Li Yuan's account were arrested, Taiyuan ordered Wen Dayou, Cangcao Wen Wuyin, as well as Guangling County Gongyu Wenxin and Dou Jia Dou Dan."

"Please also ask the general to raise his noble hand, and his subordinates are willing to say that the third brother and Wuyin will be lowered." Wen Dalin bowed his hand and said.

"It doesn't matter, since it's Wen Sima's relatives, there's definitely no problem in letting them go, of course, if you can work for someone, that's the best." Zou Yu said generously with a wave of his hand.

"Thank you, General." Wen Dalin hurriedly thanked him.

"This Yu Wenxin and the Dou family's Dou Dan, how does Wen Sima think it is better to deal with it?" Zou Yu motioned for Wen Dalin to sit down and asked.

"Yu Wenxin is the prince of Guangling County sealed by the imperial court, and Dou Dan is the family of Li Yuan's wife, as for how to deal with it, of course, it depends on what you mean by the general." Wen Dalin introduced.

Although he didn't suggest how to deal with it, Zou Yu still heard what he meant, Yu Wenxin can persuade him to surrender, and Dou Dan is a member of the Dou family, even if he is willing to surrender, he will not be at ease with it.

Zou Yu thought for a while and said, "Yuwenxin is locked up for the time being, as for Dou Dan..."

After a pause, Zou Yu's eyes were cold and continued: "Pull it out and behead it in public, since you have rebelled, you must be prepared to kill the head, and we also lack a chicken to kill the monkey." ”

"Subordinates obey!" Wen Dalin's heart tightened, and he hurriedly responded. He knew that Zou Yu was also showing him the monkey, warning the Wen family.

The power of the Dou family is not small, and there is a Li Yuan to add, Zou Yu will kill Dou Dan when he says he will kill him, which is completely a posture of offending Li Yuan to death.

Of course, Zou Yu understands this, but since he has made up his mind to stop Li Yuan, of course he needs to go all out, and it is best not to leave a way out for himself.

"When will the follow-up manpower arrive?" Zou Yu asked.

"General Zhang Zhongjian and his military division are leading 30,000 foot soldiers, and they are coming quickly, and they will arrive in two days at most." Wen Dalin replied.

"What is the strength of the family in Taiyuan City?"

"Taiyuan is located in the border pass, so the strength of the family is not strong, the entire Taiyuan boundary, to the Tang Guogong came, Taiyuan is the Li family, Qi County to the subordinate family and Qi County Wang family quite a family property; The Jinyang Wang family is the largest family of the Wang family today. Wen Dalin introduced.

"Wen Sima go and arrange it, and gather all the rich merchants and families tomorrow to come to the Li Mansion to see me." Zou Yu thought for a while and said.

"Subordinates obey!"

Tongguan, north of the Yellow River, south of the mountainside, because "the river in the south of the pass in the south flow Tong Jiguan Mountain" because of the Tongguan, built in the Eastern Han Dynasty, is the barrier of Guanzhong. The situation of Tongguan is very dangerous, there are Qinling Mountains in the south, there is the forbidden valley in the southeast, and there are 12 cities in the south of the valley; There are Wei and Luo Erchuan in the north, and the Yellow River hugs down, and the west is near Huayue. The surrounding mountains are even mountains, peaks are even peaks, the valleys are deep and the precipices are exclusive, the mountains are high and the roads are narrow, and there is a narrow sheep intestine path in the middle, and only one car and one horse can be allowed to go back and forth. Ranked second among the top ten in the Central Plains.

Now Li Yuan is blocked in the vicinity of Doctor Guanglu and General Wei Qu Tutong.

"How can this be?" Li Yuan asked with a panicked face, and Li Yuanji sat on the ground on one side.

Li Jiancheng asked Li Yuanji to help him down to rest, turned around and said: "Father, now we have no way to retreat, only to break through Tongguan as soon as possible, and refuse to pursue the soldiers at the risk of Tongguan, as long as we stand firmly in the pass, we can be safe and sound." ”

"I'm most afraid that if Tongguan is not taken, the chasing soldiers will arrive, what should I do?" Li Yuan frowned.

"When the pursuers come, they must be mainly cavalry, and the Turks sent 3,000 horses, 500 cavalry, and then 2,000 people were selected to form 5,500 cavalry, and the children were willing to go and block it." Li Shimin said confidently.

"It's not proper, it's not proper, Zou Changfeng was able to fight from Liaodong to Youzhou, and now he ignores Liu Wuzhou and Dou Jiande, and enters the state, it can be seen that his courage and strategy are superior, and his subordinates have been fighting for many years, so there must be no reason to be weak." Li Yuan hurriedly objected, he didn't want Li Shimin to fold in, and now his subordinates were in charge of Li Shimin's troops, which could reassure him.

"Then let people lead the cavalry and rush to Jinyang, so that the follow-up pursuers will not dare to come with confidence, and the cavalry will come, and the father will take people to detour to Liangshan, cross the Yellow River, and kill Guanzhong, and the child will attack Tongguan here." Li Shimin suggested again.
