Chapter 154 Deliberation on countermeasures
"The governor doesn't need to do this, even if he can't use weapons, his subordinates can still command the soldiers and horses." Liu Hongji squeezed out a smile and said.
"Brother Liu, don't worry, in a few days, I will immediately ask the imperial doctor to treat you." Li Shimin said in a firm tone, but unfortunately he didn't know that Zou Yu had already gotten away all these technical talents, even if he didn't want to, he was semi-forced to leave, not to mention that there was an imperial doctor, and it might not be able to make Liu Hongji recover, because not only his bones were shattered, but also his tendons were broken, not his life was big, and he didn't hurt the arteries and blood vessels, I'm afraid the corpse was already cold.
"Well, the subordinates are fine, the governor should think about how to defeat the enemy in front of him, they must have come to delay us so that the king of Daxing can retreat." Liu Hongji said bitterly.
"Okay, Brother Liu, you rest first." Li Shimin nodded, and then walked out with Li Xiaogong.
"What do you think, cousin?" Li Shimin asked with a frown.
"Just looking at the equipment, it is already slightly better than us, if you fight hard, you will definitely lose, and I see that they are almost all nomads, and their archery skills are better than ours, if you want to defeat, it is difficult! Unless the army encircles and suppresses. Li Xiaogong said with a stern expression.
"Well, not only that, whether it is the general Zou Changfeng or the young general, the force is quite amazing, we don't have anyone to fight with, it is easy to be broken through in a fight, and we must try our best to avoid letting them find out in the future." Li Shimin nodded and admonished.
"General Zou Changfeng, it's really hard to beat, but that young general doesn't seem to be General Duan's opponent, right?" At the mention of Zou Yu, Li Xiaogong felt his arm numb, and couldn't help but clench his fists and said.
"Nope! I'm not the opponent of that young general, but I'm inexperienced, so for a while, there is no way to take me, fortunately retreat with you, otherwise my subordinates may not be able to come back. Duan Zhixuan, who had just come over, said fearfully.
"Why did General Duan say this?" Li Xiaogong asked.
"That young general, it seems that he was defeated by me, but when he escaped, he deliberately slowed down his horse, his body tensed, if I catch up today, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back if I don't die." Duan Zhixuan closed his eyes and thought about it, and said with a wry smile.
"Could it be a return gun? There are not many people who can use this trick well, and I know that there is only one person who is the most proficient in this trick. Li Xiaogong frowned and said.
"Who is it?" Li Shimin asked curiously.
"Youzhou Luo Yi! This trick is easy to learn and difficult to master, and there are many people who understand it, and he is the only one who can really use it. Li Xiaogong introduced.
"It must be Luo Yi's descendant, it shouldn't be wrong, after all, at this time, it is reasonable to appear next to Zou Changfeng." Li Shimin nodded and analyzed, agreeing with Li Xiaogong's speculation.
"Luo Yi even sent his son to him, it seems that the land of Youzhou has all fallen into his hands, this great general is really not to be underestimated." Li Xiaogong sighed.
"I'm afraid Youzhou is not so easy to take, especially if it occupies Yuyang." Li Shimin shook his head and said.
"I don't know what he's going to do, how are we going to get over now? If the acting king is really taken away, then it will be a big trouble. Li Xiaogong said with a wry smile.
"There is no other way, the cavalry comes and goes like the wind, and they can't fight and can't fight, so they can only be forced by the army, and I have sent a message to ask my father to arrange reinforcements as soon as possible." Li Shimin shook his head and said.
When the arranged scout saw Li Shimin retreating twenty miles, Zou Yu set up a simple camp nearby, set it up, and then led people to Daxing.
The purpose of his coming is to delay Li Shimin, and when the goal is achieved, he will carry out the second task and defeat Li Yuan all the way.
Since the loss of Yongfeng Cang, Li Yuan has been worried about Taicang and Chang Ping, Taicang is near Daxing, and there is no way for a while, so Li Jiancheng took people to Chang Ping between Daxing and Luoyang.
Chang Ping is set up to balance the price of grain in the market, plus Yang Guang is also the first to use the grain here every time, so the grain reserves are less than the rest, and the guards are from the Guan Long family and the Cui family, Li Jiancheng naturally took it very easily, and soon after getting the Chang Ping, Li Yuan's order came, so Li Jiancheng took up his army of 60,000 and went to support Xinfeng.
Xinfeng City is ten miles away!
"Report to the Governor! The evacuated men and horses of Daxing have reached fifty miles away! One of the scouts sat on horseback and clenched his fists loudly.
"Probe!"
"Whoa!"
"It's fine! Not late. Li Jiancheng said with a smile.
"The army should be stationed in Xinfeng as soon as possible and block the Guangtong Canal!" is also a member of the Li clan, Li Jiancheng's cousin Li Youliang persuaded him.
"It's better for the governor to lead the troops into the city, and his subordinates will take 20,000 people to camp outside the city, and they will take care of each other." Li Jiancheng's other cousin, Li Shenfu, suggested.
Nepotism, which is the most common in the family, is naturally the same for Li Yuan, and the military power under his command is either in the hands of his son, or in the hands of his nephews and cousins.
"What my cousin said is reasonable, just do what you say!" Li Jiancheng's gentle jade-like voice sounded faintly, which made people's hearts warm and naturally felt close.
"We'd better march faster and take precautions early, so as not to be caught off guard by the cavalry." Li Shenfu suggested with a slight smile.
"Hmm!" Li Jiancheng nodded, waved his hand and ordered: "Let's go!" ”
A County!
"Sanniang, you're here!" Li Shimin said with a slightly embarrassed smile.
"Second brother, when I got your news, I hurriedly brought someone here, what's the situation now?" Li Xiuning, who was dressed in military uniform, looked heroic, holding a Su Sakura gun, and asked bluntly.
"Someone stopped here!" Li Shimin replied with a wry smile.
The person who swore that he wanted to delay Daxing, how did he know that he was being dragged by someone now, and he couldn't help but panic for a while.
"Where are they now?" Li Xiuning asked.
"Just twenty miles ahead, the scouts have fought dozens of times in the past few days, but they have not gained the upper hand." Li Shimin introduced.
"Cousin Xiaogong, General Duan, you?" Li Xiuning found the two injured people on the side, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"There is a young general named Luo Cheng, who led people to hunt and kill scouts, Xiaogong and Zhixuan led people to block it, and they lost both." Li Shimin explained.
"Not good!"
"Not good!"
Li Shimin and Li Xiuning's faces changed, and they exclaimed at the same time.
"What's wrong?" Li Shenfu looked at the two of them suspiciously.
"I was fooled, they sent people to hunt and kill scouts, obviously to cover their whereabouts, otherwise they wouldn't let the generals out of the horse, there must be no one now, I'm still fighting back." Li Shimin said with annoyance, and at the same time secretly blamed himself in his heart, he didn't carelessly see through such a simple trick, he was shocked by Zou Yu's force, but he didn't expect it to be just a false shot.
