"What, the Sui army on the opposite side all withdrew at night?"

In the big tent of the Tang army, the commander Li Longji looked at the general in front of him who reported the military situation to him with some suspicion, and only after a while did Nan Nan say: "Xuanli, are you sure that the Sui army on the opposite side has all been withdrawn?" ”

The Tang general standing in front of Li Longji should be about thirty-five years old, burly, powerful and powerful, and he is one of the main people who came into the world with Li Longji and the Ma Weipo mutiny in history, Chen Xuanli, the general of the forbidden army.

Although in history, Chen Xuanli betrayed Li Longji and forced him to issue an order to kill his beloved concubine. But now, Chen Xuanli, who was born with Li Longji, is Li Longji's most trusted confidant.

Chen Xuanli arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, this news has been confirmed again and again, there is no mistake, within a radius of twenty miles, it has been investigated by our army scouts, and no Sui army has been found, but I don't know where the Sui army is going." ”

"Missing?"

Li Longji frowned, his index finger lightly slammed on the tabletop, and said: "It is impossible for the Sui army to lose its trace for no reason, there must be something wrong during this period, but we don't know it yet!" ”

Chen Xuanli nodded, arched his hand and said, "What His Highness said is extremely true. ”

Li Longji immediately shouted outside the tent: "Come on, quickly invite General Sun Shunde and Princess Pingyang to come over to discuss matters!" ”

"Yes!"

The soldiers guarding outside the tent left in response, but after a quarter of an hour's effort, the eldest grandson Shunde and Li Xiuning, the princess of Pingyang, who automatically asked Ying to avenge her husband, entered the big tent one after another.

As soon as he walked into the big tent, Li Xiuning asked impatiently: "Brother Huang, has the Sui army on the other side really withdrawn?" ”

At this time, it has been four or five months since Chai Shao's death, but time has not soothed the grief in Li Xiuning's heart, but has made the hatred in her heart increase day by day.

Li Longji nodded, and before he could speak, Li Xiuning continued: "Since this is the case, then what are you waiting for, then the imperial brother is waiting for it, hurry up and give the order to attack!" ”

Li Longji frowned when he heard this, and sighed secretly in his heart, how shrewd this imperial sister was in the past, when her father had just raised troops in Taiyuan, she and her daughter successively incorporated He Panren, Li Zhongwen, Xiang Shanzhi, Qiu Shili and other righteous armies, and laid a large piece of territory for Li Yuan in Guanzhong, and even the famous general Qu Tutong suffered a big loss under her hands.

But now, when the enemy situation is unknown, she has sent troops to pursue, and her calm and composed, courageous and intelligent knowledge in the past have been ghosted!

Li Longji also knew that Chai Shao and Li Xiuning had been married for many years, and the husband and wife had a deep relationship, and Chai Shao's death was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Li Xiuning, and it was inevitable to be impulsive.

However, understanding is understanding, it is impossible for Li Longji to be as impulsive as Li Xiuning.

At that moment, Li Longji persuaded in a deep voice: "It is understandable that the imperial sister's mind is lonely, but don't forget the imperial sister, the Sui army's military advisor Li Yu is scheming, and we have suffered his secret losses many times before, but now we can't be careless!" ”

"But if the Sui army's withdrawal this time is because of a major change in the rear, then wouldn't we miss the fighter plane in vain?" After listening to Li Longji's advice, Li Xiuning did not give up the idea of sending troops to chase and kill.

Li Longji smiled helplessly, shook his head and sighed: "Imperial sister, in order to allow the people of the world to take Luoyang, my father has already transferred all the soldiers in Guanzhong. At present, the battle situation in Bashu is unfavorable, Li Xiaogong died in battle, if there is a little accident here, the Sui army can drive straight into Guanzhong, so it is absolutely careless! ”

"But if the Sui army really has a change in the rear this time, and we miss the fighter plane in vain, wait until the Sui army retreats to Xicheng, when will Sichang's revenge be avenged?" Li Xiuning still hasn't let go of the obsession in his heart.

Li Longji suddenly straightened his face, and said in a deep voice: "Pingyang, we are all the head office of the Tang Dynasty, and we should focus on the overall situation, and we must not abolish the public because of personal reasons!" ”

Li Xiuning stubbornly raised his head and said loudly: "Brother Huang, it is precisely because my Tang Dynasty troops are stretched thin, we should seize all the fighters to defeat the Sui army, and get out in time to rush to Luoyang to support the people!" ”

Li Longji saw that Li Xiuning couldn't listen to his opinion at all, and he was immediately secretly angry, and immediately said in a cold voice: "Li Xiuning, Lone is the commander of the army, and this commander has now decided to wait until the situation is clear!" ”

"Then you can continue to be a shrunken turtle here!"

Li Xiuning snorted coldly, didn't look at Li Longji again, turned around and walked out of the handsome tent.

At the beginning, in response to Li Yuan's recruitment in Guanzhong, Li Xiuning formed a force of more than 70,000 people, known as the "Women's Army".

With Li Yuan's entry into Guanzhong, most of this women's army was also incorporated into other Tang armies, but the most elite 5,000 soldiers and horses have always been commanded by Li Xiuning.

After Li Xiuning got out of the handsome tent, he immediately mobilized the five thousand elites in his hands, and used his prestige in the army to gather three or four thousand people, drank the walled gate, and went straight to Nanzheng City to kill.
