Li Shimin looked around at the generals in the tent and said loudly: "The Sui army has just taken charge of Luoyang, although it will do its best to suppress Wang Shichong's forces in Luoyang City. But Wang Shichong held power in Luoyang for several years, and his power would never be uprooted by the Sui army in one dynasty. So if Lone's prediction is correct, Wang Shichong received the news from Luoyang in the past two days. ”

"Report, His Royal Highness King Qin, Hongnong urgently!"

Before Li Shimin's words fell, he rushed to the outside of the big tent as soon as he rode the scout, rolled the saddle and walked into the big tent quickly, and reported loudly: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin, half an hour ago, Wang Shichong suddenly led the main army to leave Hongnong City, and rushed all the way to the south. ”

When the generals in the tent heard this, they were all overjoyed, and when the general Li Jilong heard the news, he immediately walked up to the scout and asked in a deep voice, "Can you see clearly?" Is it really that Wang Shichong old thief personally led the army? ”

The scout nodded and replied in a deep voice: "Back to the general, the villain can see clearly, it is indeed Wang Shichong who personally led the army, accompanied by Wang Yanzhang and Shan Xiongxin. However, the villain did not see Wang Renze's figure. ”

"Your Highness, Wang Shichong should have also received the news of the Luoyang incident, so he rushed to Luoyang in such a hurry. And Wang Ren was not in the army, and he should have been left behind in Hongnong City. ”

When Li Jilong heard this, he immediately turned to Li Shimin with an excited face: "Your Highness, Wang Shichong's old thief is worried that Luoyang is busy making a mistake, this kind of fighter plane is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the last general thinks that our army can divide infantry to besiege Hongnong, intercept Wang Renze in the city, and quickly assemble elite cavalry to bypass Hongnong City to pursue and kill Wang Shichong." ”

Li Shimin shook his head slightly, smiled without saying a word, and looked at Du Ruhui on the side. Du Ruhui smiled knowingly, and slowly stepped out of the ranks and said: "General, we have been dealing with Wang Shichong for so long, don't you know the ability of this old thief?" Even if he was really worried about the situation in Luoyang, would he really make such a low-level mistake? ”

Li Jilong frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice: "What does the military advisor mean that Wang Shichong has a conspiracy?" ”

"Wang Shichong should be gambling now, he is betting on whether Gu Gu will be eager to win for a while, and personally lead the elite cavalry to chase him!"

Li Shimin walked slowly to the map, swiped his fingers across the map, and finally stopped at the position of Cijian and said: "Everyone, please see, the name of this place is Cijian, the stream water comes out of Michi Mountain, flows through Xin'an County, and flows into Gushui from the southeast, which just divides this place into two. Both sides of the stream are dense forests, and even if tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are hidden, they will not be detected easily. ”

If Lone's prediction is correct, Wang Shichong must have set up ambushes on both sides of the river, as long as Lone crosses the stream, the two ambushes will be launched together. The ambush soldiers on the west bank of the stream will rely on the stream to form a formation to block the follow-up soldiers and horses of Lone, while the soldiers and horses on the east bank of the stream are responsible for encircling and annihilating the vanguard of Lone and taking down Lone's head! ”

Qu Tutong said with some suspicion: "Your Highness, is this speculation too arbitrary?" This strategy sounds feasible at first glance, but after thinking about it, the general feels that there are too many elements of luck in this plan, as long as there is a slight deviation in the middle, the previous efforts will be wasted, will Wang Shichong really adopt such a strategy? ”

Li Shimin smiled coldly: "So far, does Wang Shichong have any other way than to make a desperate bet?" He should know very well in his heart that whether it is my Datang or Yang Gao, it is impossible to tolerate such a careerist as him! ”

Qu Tutong frowned slightly, lowered his head and thought for a long time, nodded and said: "Your Highness is indeed reasonable, then I don't know how Your Highness plans to use soldiers?" ”

"Lone has been painstakingly arranging for a long time today, and even Lone's most trusted strategist has been put in, so it is absolutely impossible for Lone to let Wang Shichong return south safely today. Even if you know that there is a trap, you have to chase it! ”

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Lone needs a loyal and brave general to cross the stream first under the banner of Lone and lead Wang Shichong's ambush soldiers out." Lone Hui led the main force to respond in the rear, attacking Wang Shichong's army inside and outside. But such a risk is extremely great, once Lone breaks through the interception of Wang Shichong's troops on the west bank of the stream for a little longer, then the forward troops acting as bait will be in danger of being wiped out! ”

Speaking of this, Li Shimin paused, his eyes swept in front of each general in the tent, and said: "You are all brothers who followed Lone to death, this time are you willing to trust Lone and hand over your life to Lone's hands?" ”

As soon as Li Shimin's voice fell, Li Jilong, Pei Xingyan, Wei Chigong, Mountain Lion Camel, Gao Xianzhi, Guo Zhiyun, Li Jixuan, Li Siyuan and other generals came out together, knelt on the ground and said loudly: "The last general is deeply favored by the King of Qin, even if there is a sea of swords and fires in front of us, we are willing to break through for His Royal Highness the King of Qin!" ”

A hint of imperceptible pride flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he said: "Okay, all the generals are really loyal and brave people, and it is a blessing for Datang to have you." General Wei Chigong, General Li Siyuan. ”

"The last general!"

Wei Chigong and Li Siyuan, who were named by name, took two steps forward and arched their hands.

Li Shimin took an arrow and said in a deep voice: "General Wei Chi, you are Lone's personal guard general, if you appear in the team, Wang Shichong will definitely think that Lone is also in the army." General Li Siyuan, you are similar to the Lone body type, and it is most appropriate for you to pretend to be Lone. This time, the two of you led Gu's 5,000 Xuanjia elite cavalry to take the lead in crossing the stream, luring out Wang Shichong's ambush soldiers and dragging his army for Gu. ”

Li Siyuan and Wei Chigong clasped their fists together and said, "The last general obeys the order!" ”

Li Shimin took out another arrow, looked at Qu Tutong and said: "Old General Qu Tu, you are alone in leading 60,000 infantry troops to surround Hongnong City, no matter what the battle ahead, you can't let Wang Renze go out of the city!" ”

Qu Tutong smiled: "Your Highness, rest assured, if there is a soldier in Hongnong City who rushes to Cijian to interfere with His Highness, then the old man will accept this head and make amends to His Highness!" ”

"Lone also believes that the old general will be able to do it!"

Li Shimin smiled slightly, turned his head to look at Pei Renji, another veteran in the tent: "Old General Pei, you have always been known for being cautious, and you are stationed in the camp alone in case of accidents!" ”

Pei Renji arched his hand and said loudly: "Your Highness, rest assured, as long as the old minister is here, the camp will be safe!" ”

"Good!"

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, slowly pulled out the sword at his waist, and said loudly: "The rest of the generals will lead the army with Gu, and just wait for General Li Siyuan and General Wei Chigong to lead out Wang Shichong's ambush, and then launch an attack on the whole line to defeat Wang Shichong's main force as quickly as possible." ”

"The last general obeys!"

Li Jilong and other generals replied loudly together. The general mountain lion camel smiled, revealing two rows of senran teeth, and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the last general will definitely take down the head of Wang Shichong's old thief for you this time!" ”

"No, never!"

Li Shimin shook his head with a firm expression: "Lone here I want to solemnly warn all the generals, you can kill anyone in this battle, but Wang Shichong is an old thief, no matter what, you have to let him live." ”

(Insert: Li Xuanba will not participate in any of the Tang Army's military meetings due to IQ problems, so he is not seen here.) But Li Shimin will definitely take him with him when he goes on the expedition. ）
