After thinking hard for a long time, I found that there was no other way than to escape overnight.

Although she has mastered the Women's Army and Zuo Xiao's cavalry guards, she can only add up to more than 8,000 people, even if she controls the palace and kills the Xiao family's father and son, she can't control the situation.

The last time the palace was successful, it was because of the banner of Zhao Wang Xiao Yan. And this time, there will be no chance of winning.

Remain?

Staying behind is a dead end. Xiao Yan must have had murderous intent.

Although she is young, she has experienced many dangers, and she has long honed her vigilance against them.

After scolding hard, he left a letter first, and immediately simply packed up some soft goods, and then took a group of guards and went out of the city overnight.

With her current power, no one questioned him at all.

The group of hard workers left Gangneung City and went straight to the riverside. She planned to vote directly for Tang, and then take the warship of the Tang Army's naval division to the Tang Kingdom.

This is her only way out.

By the time Xiao Yan learned that he had left Jiangling overnight, it was already the morning of the second day.

Xiao Yan was shocked, where did she not know that she was going to attack her?

She ran away so neatly.

It's really cunning like a ghost!

What worries Xiao Yan even more is that if she escapes to the Tang Kingdom, will she tell Li Luo that she will do what she wants?

Hard work didn't know that she was going to make a plan, she just guessed this possibility, but even so, she might have told Li Luo her guess.

If that's the case, it's a big problem!

Xiao Yan immediately ordered to hunt down Hard for treason, and also sealed Princess Guangming's mansion, and found a letter left for him in the mansion.

Hard said in the letter that knowing that he went to see the emperor, he guessed that he would kill her, and she could only leave the Liang Kingdom, hoping that he would not regret it.

didn't mention that he might make a plan and betray Li Luo. It seems that she should have fled only for fear of being killed, and she didn't guess that she wanted to really attack Tang.

So Xiao Yan hurriedly took precautions. In order to paralyze Li Luo, he wrote a sincere letter to Li Luo:

“… Chen Yan said that his father knew that the limit had come, and he never forgot the matter of Suzaku Gate, and hated the hard work of killing his third son. Yes, force the ministers to kill them. ”

"Since ancient times, filial piety has ruled the world, and Yan is the son of man, which cannot be violated. can only leak the news and force the hard work to Liang, in order to achieve both..."

A word of filial piety, dripping and leaking? Convincing enough.

Father is dying? Before he died, he asked for this, and when he was a son, he could obviously do it? But they don't do it. Is this still the way of the Son of Man?

Is that Li Luo? Nor can it be said that he is wrong.

Xiao Yan also said in the letter that he knew that it was hard to escape? It's just a pretense and chasing, isn't it? Hard work is inescapable.

This is, of course,. But he believes? Li Luo could only pretend to be confused.

After all, he "served" Li Luo's heart and had not "changed".

It is impossible for Li Luo not to know which is more important.

Princess Guangming's defection to Li Tang? It immediately caused an uproar in Gangneung City.

After Xiao Yin of Shou'an Palace learned that he had worked hard to escape? Angry, he shouted, vomited blood for half a liter, and suddenly died.

On the twelfth day of the twelfth month of the second year of Liang Guoguang, the Great Buddha of the White Lotus Sect, who has controlled the underground forces in Huguang for many years? Emperor Xiao Yin, the Great Liang Emperor who had only been emperor for two years, died.

This man who has secretly influenced Huguang for 20 years? Finally dead. is so wretched and unwilling to die.

Xiao Yan is "full of sorrow"? On the second day, he ascended the throne in front of the coffin, and Xiao Yin was the Emperor Zhaolie? There is no fixed temple number. Set next year as the first year of Shuntong.

Xiao Yin is Emperor Zhaolie? Is that self-comparison Liu Chan? The new year name of "Shuntong" was adopted, and the temple name for Xiao Yin had not yet been set.

All this is to confuse Li Luo and make Li Luo think that his surrender will not change.

It's painstaking.

He'd thought it through.

If the war is won, he will change the first emperor to the martial emperor, set the temple name Taizu, and then change the Yuan Xuantong! Declare the will of unification!

As a result, Xiao Yan officially became Xiao Liang's second emperor.

After Xiao Yan ascended the throne, while secretly writing a letter to Li Luo to say that his original intention would not change, he secretly continued the important thing that Xiao Miao, the king of Lu, had not completed before: studying the firearms of the Tang Kingdom!

At this time, the hard work had already arrived in Lin'an and met Li Luo.

"Master, the slave almost can't see the master." The pear blossoms that cried as soon as they saw Li Luo brought rain were extremely pitiful.

"Alright. Don't pretend to be a widow if you're careful. Li Luo smiled, "Since you are here, you can live in Lin'an City, and you don't have to worry about all food and clothing." However, the widow wants you to be at peace. ”

He smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you, master." Slaves have no home and no country, and if they don't come to their masters, who will they come to? "Her character is set in Li Luo, and her original form has long been revealed, and she simply doesn't pretend.

Li Luo said: "In order not to make Xiao Yan suspicious, the widow can't award you an official title for the time being." After receiving Liang Guo, you will come out to do things. ”

Xiao Yan was afraid that Li Luo would be suspicious, and Li Luo didn't want Xiao Yan to be suspicious.

Li Luo wanted Xiao Yan to believe that he believed in him.

"The master also guessed that Xiao Yan would change his mind?" Asked hard, I had to admire in my heart.

Can Li Luo not know? The information that Xiao Yan may have changed his mind has been reported to him by the Special Investigation Bureau.

And the possibility of Xiao Yan's change of heart, Li Luo was mentally prepared from the beginning.

People's hearts are like the sea, the most unpredictable. Especially after blocking the power, how many people can still maintain their original intentions?

Therefore, to create the strategic confusion of the southern expedition, on the one hand, is to attract the military adventures of the Three Kingdoms, and on the other hand, it is also to test Xiao Yan and dig a pit for him.

If Xiao Yan is unmoved and has a firm mind, then Li Luo will generously give him a high-ranking official and a knighthood to ensure that he will be rich for generations.

If Xiao Yan changes his mind, then he will plan and try to solve Xiao Liang at the lowest cost. This also saves a number of knighthoods.

These virtual and real are interlocking, and the means of concealing the killing machine, Li Luo has already played it very skillfully. Xiao Yan was no match for him at all.

That is, Kublai Khan, who still made him feel strong pressure.

Xiao Yan's change of heart is actually normal.

It is true that the Tang army does not have many troops and horses in the southeast. The Tang army took the route of elite soldiers, the selection conditions for recruits were relatively harsh, the training was also very hard, the treatment and equipment were also the best, and the quality won the victory, so there would not be too many soldiers and horses.

At this time in the southeast, the Tang army was full of only 180,000 troops. After deducting the basic garrison troops and river defense troops, the maximum number of mobile combat troops is 130,000.

Although the quality of the soldiers and horses of the Liang and Song States was much worse, they were able to draw more than 500,000 troops and attack them on both sides. Four times the strength of the Don.

Moreover, because the Tang Army had a lot of recruits, the quality was not strong enough to crush the Liang Army. The Liang State was also a new regime, and it was an army based on education, and its combat strength and morale were at least stronger than that of the weak Song army.

If most of the elite soldiers of the Liang army were not in the hands of the spies, then Xiao Yan would indeed have a good chance of winning this battle. If you play well, it is not impossible to take Jiangxi.

But the problem is that Xiao Yan never dreamed that the generals of the Liang Army were most likely agents of the Tang State. That would be destined to be a tragedy.

He sighed hard, "It's a pity that I was busy and didn't do anything for my master." ”

Li Luo said: "At least you killed Xiao Yin and King Lu who wanted to descend to the Yuan, prompting Dali to send troops." It's not like nothing. Besides, you haven't voted for Tang before, so there's no reason to do anything for the widow. ”

He knew very well that what he had done in Liang seemed to be helping him, but in fact it was just to oppose Yuan.

After waiting for the hard work to leave, Cui Xiuning came to Lingxu Pavilion and handed Li Luo a copy of the latest information, "The Three Kingdoms agreed that on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month before the New Year, troops will be dispatched at the same time!" ”

"The Song army consisted of Chen Daju of the Hai Song Dynasty and Lin Guifang of the Song Dynasty in Guangzhou as the chief and deputy marshals, and led an army of 210,000 to attack Fujian. Of the 210,000 Song troops, 50,000 or 60,000 came from Nanyang. ”

The Liang army was personally recruited by Xiao Yan, and led an army of 320,000 to attack Jiangxi. Huchen, they all secretly received military orders. ”

"The Dali army was personally recruited by Duan Zheng, almost poured out, and led 200,000 soldiers and horses from various tribes to attack Sichuan. In particular, it is important to note that the Dali army has 80,000 cavalry! There are also 30,000 poison archers, and their strength is very strong. ”

Li Luo smiled: "Okay, it's really coming out!" It's not over the years! Very good! ”

Cui Xiuning couldn't help laughing, "When they send troops, Mr. Wen should also launch an attack in Annan." ”

The husband and wife looked at the map, both a little excited.

The man drew on the map, "Within a few months, the southern kingdom will be unified!" Daughter-in-law, I will be the emperor then, and you will be the queen, are you happy? ”

"Happy yarn." The corners of Cui Xiuning's mouth are crooked, and her eyes are shining.

Three days later, Li Luo received another letter from Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan said in the letter that on the 28th of the lunar month, 100,000 regiments would be trained as the Southern Route Army, and then they suddenly announced that they had rebelled, and attacked the Tang army back and forth, destroying them.

Then, on the grounds of defeat, he announced his surrender and returned to Tang.

After reading the letter, Li Luo sneered.

Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, it's no wonder to me.

…………

The end of the year, Dali has been snowing heavily, covered in silver. At this time, it was supposed to be the time of the New Year, but there was no New Year's atmosphere in Dali.

With the help of the Tusi of various wealthy families, almost all of the 3.6 million people of all ethnic groups in Dali moved.

Emperor Dali's promise to them was that if they conquered Sichuan Shu, they could get more land in Sichuan and Shu, and they could also share the benefits of salt and tea in Sichuan and Shu.

The soldiers and horses of the eight prefectures, four towns, four counties, and twenty-nine tribes braved the snow to march to Jianchang (Xichang) on the border with Sichuan and Shu.

Many slaves also went on expeditions to help transport grain and grass.

Millions of shellfish coins were distributed to the soldiers as military salaries and rewards, so that their morale was high.

Between the mountains and the sea, people shouted and neighed, and there were soldiers with fierce looks everywhere. They were equipped with two layers of armor, rattan armor on the outside and leather armor on the inside, which was also a tradition in the Nanzhao era.

Moreover, the Dali army was also equipped with a large number of wooden shields this time. It was mainly used to resist the fire guns of the Tang army.

That's the right thing to do. The wooden shield does have some protection against the firebolts, and even if the projectile passes through the wooden shield, it will be difficult to penetrate their armor.

Therefore, not only the Dali army, but also the Liang army and the Song army were also equipped with a large number of wooden shields.

Dali is still white, Duan Zheng is wearing a white armor embroidered with a dragon, a white fox fur coat, and a white jade handle dragon head sword hanging from his waist, standing in front of the Qianxun Pagoda outside the Chongsheng Temple under the Cangshan Mountain, full of spirit.

One by one, the helmet-clad Shima Bow (general) lined up on both sides, looking at their emperor.

On the side, there is the harem led by the queen Xiao Ji, and the ministers led by the Qingping officials (prime ministers).

"Warriors!" Duan Zheng said loudly, "Back then, the warriors of Nanzhao Kingdom set out from here, attacking Sichuan and Shu several times and Chengdu twice!" The power of the soldiers is sharp, and the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is trembling! ”

"Today, Yuan (I) want to lead you to re-walk the path of your ancestors! Kill back! Yuan assures you that you will have countless food, land, and women! ”

"Yuan told you, if you win this battle, you will be able to become a Yantuo Bai, Gong Jiu, and even a vassal!"

The Dali soldiers suddenly became excited, and shouted one after another: "Kill back!" Kill back! ”

Between the mountains and the sea, there was a shout.

Even the snow couldn't cool their fiery hearts. As long as there are benefits to fighting, they are not afraid of fighting.

Xiao Ji had already received the news of the death of his father Xiao Yin at this time. She was dressed in filial piety clothes, holding her big belly and saluting Duan Zheng: "Concubine, I wish the fat letter banner a victory and expand the territory!" ”

She lowered her head, unable to hide her excitement in her eyes.

The elder brother attacked Jiangxi in the east, the Song army attacked Fujian in the Tang State, and the Dali army will soon be in Sichuan and Shu.

Li Luo, can you still win this time?

Thinking of Li Luo's defeat and capture, Xiao Ji felt a kind of dizziness-like comfort.

Didn't you reject me? I'm going to make you regret it.

Duan Zheng looked at Xiao Zhen, who had a beautiful appearance like a hibiscus out of the water, and said warmly: "The Star Mother (Queen) takes care of the baby, and when the Yuan Dynasty hits Chengdu, the child you give birth to, whether it is male or female, is called Duan Jincheng!" ”

"Thank you for your name!" Xiao Ji bent over a little awkwardly.

Bu Xie, Tan Xuan, Jiuzan and other Qingping officials took off their round high hats together, revealing the head of the monk with a little incense scar, and said: "The ministers wish the fat letter flag a victory and return triumphantly!" ”

Dali civil officials are generally from "Confucianism", and they are both monks and Confucian scholars.

Duan Zheng stepped onto the white horse and drew his sword, "Yuan, please Cangshan and Erhai as proof!" The rewards and punishments will be clear, and the soldiers will advance and retreat together! Let's go! ”

"Woo woo woo-" As soon as the military horn sounded, the Dali soldiers suddenly braved the snow and headed to the northeast under the command of the generals of various departments.

On the third day of the first lunar month, more and more soldiers and horses gathered around Duan Zheng. In addition to the soldiers and horses of the various departments of Jianchang Mansion, all the other soldiers and horses arrived.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the army crossed the Jinsha River, traveled north, and entered Jianchang Mansion.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, 200,000 troops all gathered and crossed the Dadu River, and in front of them was Li Nan County (Li Zhou) of Sichuan and Shu in Tang State.

The news of Dali's 200,000 troops pressing the border has long been spread to the state pastor yamen in Chengdu City, and the Jiedu embassy.

And the Yizhou Tang Army is also ready.

Zhu Jiedu, the envoy of Yizhou Jiedu, had already been ordered by Li Luo to dispatch 50,000 cavalry trained in the grassland of Songpan County to the south.

Yizhou Mu Yang Hanming has also long collected grain, grass and people's mules and horses.

And the people of Linan County and Zhending County have long been evacuated, and the walls are clear.

The 130,000 Tang Army, under the leadership of Zhu Jie, Hugu, and Yelu Zhongjie, slowly moved south.

On the fourteenth day of the first month, Duan Zhengqin led an army of 200,000 and entered Linan County with great momentum, and confronted the 130,000 Tang army in Zhending.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

Just as the Dali army entered Linan County, Yizhou, the situation in the east was also extremely tense.

On the twelfth day of the first month, the 320,000 Liang army, under the personal leadership of Xiao Yan, rolled eastward, passed through the Shogunate Mountain, and entered Jiangxi.

Earlier, on the tenth day of the first lunar month, 210,000 Song troops, led by Chen Daju, who was familiar with Fujian, smuggled across the Yunxiao Mountain Ancient Road and entered Fujian.

Within a few days, the armies of the three kingdoms all entered the Tang Kingdom!

Xiao Bei and Wu Yan, the generals of the Tang Army in Ganzhou, also commanded 50,000 mobile soldiers and horses to go north and confront the Liang army at Fenning (Xiushui), where the people had been evacuated.

Chen Shuzhen, the general of the Tang Army in Minzhou, led 50,000 mobile soldiers and horses to confront the Song army in Zhangpu, which had also been evacuated.

At this time, it was already the sixth year of the Tang Dynasty and the twenty-third year of the Yuan Dynasty.

Later history books called this war the "Three Kingdoms Attack on the Tang Dynasty".

…………

At the same time as the Three Kingdoms attacked the Tang Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang of Annam finally stopped pretending.

Of course, there was no outbreak of plague in the Tang army, everything was a trick to confuse the enemy and show weakness.

The Tang army showed weakness for several months and could not hold out, and the Yuan army had long been convinced.

But on the ninth day of the first lunar month, Wen Tianxiang suddenly took the initiative to attack. And the Yuan army had the upper hand for a few months, and Pingzhang Yaomushu had long thought that the Tang army was sick and dead, and it was no longer enough to worry, so he simply used hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to block the retreat of the Tang army to the sea.

The Tang army suddenly attacked, so that the Yuan army could not evacuate at all, and a decisive battle was fought.

Although there are a lot of Yuan troops, most of them are Vietnamese traitors, and it is okay to fight a good battle, but not a tough battle. Although Yao Mushu is a Mongolian commander, not to mention the Mongolian cavalry under his command, even the Tanma Red Army does not have it.

Coupled with paralysis and carelessness, how can it be the opponent of the Tang Army who is like a wolf and a tiger and has long held his breath?

As soon as the Tang artillery bombarded and the pikemen rushed in formation, first the elephants of the Vietnamese army collapsed, then the Vietnamese infantry collapsed, and finally the Han army and the Tusi barbarians.

In just half a day, the army of more than 100,000 yuan was defeated like a mountain, and it was shattered.

At the cost of more than 5,000 dead and wounded, the Tang army killed 450,000 Yuan troops, captured 670,000 prisoners, and the rest fled into the mountains.

The Yuan court handed over the state of Pingzhang to the political affairs of Mushu, and was also captured.

At this point, the Yuan army was in Xiangzhou, Jiaozhou, and there was no longer a single soldier or horse.

Wen Tianxiang defeated the Yuan army of Annam in the first battle, and marched northward like a bamboo, calmly crossing the Baiteng River and arriving at Thang Long City.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Wen Tianxiang was ordered by Li Luo, and Chen Yiji, who was with the army in Thang Long City, was appointed as the king of Annam, and he also served as the regent, taking over the power of Annam.

Outside Lin'an City, Cui Xiuning and all the ministers sent Li Luo off on the expedition.

It's not so grand at all, because everyone knows in their hearts that the battle in Ganzhou will be won dramatically and easily.

At the same time as Wen Tianxiang went north, Li Luo also led 20,000 soldiers and horses into Jiangxi and personally commanded the battle of Jiangxi. At the same time, he sent Yan Ying and Liu Dadao to lead 10,000 troops south to aid Chen Shuzhen.

That's right, he only led 20,000 soldiers and horses from Jiangsu and Zhejiang into Jiangxi this time.

for he had no soldiers.

The cities on the ground must always be guarded by some soldiers, and on the south bank of the Yangtze River, there must be 20,000 soldiers to defend them.

Mobile forces, that's all.

So, on the southeast battlefield, the two armies of Song and Liang were 530,000, and the Tang army was 130,000.

The ratio of troops to forces is more than four to one.

However, Li Luo and the soldiers were not afraid.

At that time, the Jin army was tens of thousands of people, and the Song army, which often fought several times as much, hugged the head of the rat. Tang Jun can also do it.

Li Luo's strategy was to launch an attack immediately after putting the soldiers and horses of the Three Kingdoms in, breaking them with force, and fighting the domineering spirit of the Tang Army.

The enemy army must not be allowed to stay in the Tang Kingdom for too long.

As soon as Li Luo's Daxu appeared in Fenning, Xiao Yan felt weak for a while. But when he learned that Li Luo didn't bring many soldiers, he was immediately relieved.

In the camp of the Liang army, Xiao Yan was wearing golden armor, and said in high spirits: "Zhuqing, Tang Lord Li Luo, only brought this little bit of soldiers and horses to help. The Tang army in Jiangxi is definitely not more than 80,000, and our army has a fourfold advantage, so how difficult is it to win! ”

General Dong Huchen said: "Your Majesty, our army will win this battle, and Your Majesty will have a surprise soon." ”

Xiao Yan laughed, "Li Luo is used to using conspiracy and trickery, this time he can't be allowed to arrange it calmly, the whole army will break it with force, that is, fight for people's lives, fight for one, fight for the gunpowder carried by the Tang army, and win this battle!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" A group of generals said together.

Xiao Yan entered the inner tent and wrote a letter to Li Luo and asked him to send it to Li Luo.

In his letter, he said that he would put the Xiang battalion and the Chu battalion on the two wings of the regimental training army, and then ask Li Luo to divide his troops to attack the two wings. When he handed over, he attacked the regiment and annihilated the Hunan and Chu camps in one fell swoop on the grounds that Haoqiang was rebelling in the rear.

His plan served two purposes. One is to kill people with a knife, and the other is to oppose customers.

Once Li Luo divided his troops to attack the regimental training army on both wings, when the fierce battle was in full swing, he took the opportunity to go straight to Li Luo's army in the middle.

In this way, the Xiang camp and the Chu camp will be severely damaged by the Tang army, which will consume the strength of the Hao clan. At the same time, the Hunan camp and the Chu camp also dragged down the main force of the Tang army, and Li Luo's battalion had fewer troops, so he could attack Li Luo's Chinese army in one fell swoop with six or seven times the number of troops.

Kill two birds with one stone!
