Chapter 400: Yan Liang Attacks Jin
After the announcement of the holy decree, it was supposed to feast the ministers, but the first emperor's mourning period had not passed, and such a thing as the founding banquet was inevitably out of place, so Li Ye only pursed his lips, and the hundred officials signaled with their jaws, and the martial arts slowly retreated.
The whole court has a new look, for the Tang Dynasty, it has now passed the most difficult period, Tang Xizong died in advance, Tian Lingzi died in advance, the eunuch's eunuch is no longer there, such as today there are fifty percent in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, according to Duan Mingyu's proposal, the new emperor Tang Zhaozong Li Ye launched a political innovation to the court, before the festival made the military power, financial power, and political power in one, so there are conditions for supporting the army and self-respect, Duan Mingyu wrote to the request to restrict the power of the Jiedu envoy, and the Jiedu makes regardless of financial power and political power, only the military power, so that Even if you want to divide the territory, how can you succeed if you have no food and grass, and no people's heart.
A vigorous political innovation has kicked off, looking at the world, in addition to Shu, and Hebei, Hedong three places, other places are under the control of the Tang Dynasty, Shu's Chen Jingxuan and Wang Jian are still hot, but Wang Jian has the upper hand, if the time rì, should be able to defeat Chen Jingxuan, both of them are unwilling to belong to the imperial court careerists, a dozen is good, Hebei mainly has nearly ten large and small feudal towns, the main feudal town is Youzhou's Lulong Jiedu envoy Liu Rengong, under the command of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, Zhu Wen led his troops to take refuge in him, now Zhu Wen occupies a county, this county is still allocated to him by Liu Rengong, although Zhu Wen's strength is not as good as before, tens of thousands of troops are still there, after the Tang Army and Li Ke's Hedong Army captured Bianliang City, he blatantly called the king, and proclaimed himself the "King of Liang", and the military horses under his command were called Liang Army, Zhu Wen recruited troops and horses, and the territory also expanded a lot. There is also a feudal town in Hedong Li Keyong, Li Keyong is strong, he is the strongest in the feudal town, and he has always had no ill will towards Datang, Li Ye is not good to directly extend the claws of reform to him.
History has changed, the Tang Dynasty has regained its vitality, after the previous three feudatories broke Tianlingzi, Tongguan, and Chang'an City, Li Keyong led his troops to embark on the way home, on the way, but was attacked by Zhu Wen, Liu Rengong was Li Keyong sent troops to help him seize the Youzhou regime, Li Keyong and Zhu Wen were feudants, but Liu Rengong took Zhu Wen, and sat back and watched Li Keyong be attacked, Li Keyong was defeated by surprise, Liu Rengong saw Li Keyong's defeat, and had the ambition to annex Hedong, called himself King Yan, and sent 60,000 troops, Together with Zhu Wen's soldiers, he marched to Hedong, pursued and killed Li Keyong's defeated soldiers, Li Keyong's army was scattered, Liu Rengong repaired a book to Yelu Abaoji, the leader of the eight Khitan departments, and persuaded him to send troops, so the Khitan also immediately sent troops to Hedong, and the situation in Hedong was precarious, and Li Keyong had not escaped from Liu Rengong and Zhu Wen's encirclement and suppression, and did not flee back to Hedong, Hedong was in chaos, and Taiyuan people were panicked.
On the way to escape, Li Keyong encountered a defeated army all the way, this is a battalion of men, only more than 500 people, and the main general will be Zhou Dewei. Shocked to hear that the king of Jin was here, Zhou Dewei was surprised and delighted, but he was worried that the chasing soldiers would not be well guarded, and the life of the prince would be hurt, so he took out the strength to eat nǎi, and protected Li Keyong to run desperately to Taiyuan, far away in front of the deserters and pursuers, Taiyuan at this time is also called Jinyang, although the Khitan also sent troops, but there is Yanmen in hand, Jinyang City is tall, and there is no big problem for a while.
Fortunately, Li Cunxiao and Li Ke used the two defeated troops to defeat but not defeated, the two soldiers and horses deliberately bet in the rear, and fight and retreat, from time to time set up ambushes, make a trap, destroy the road in the mountains, dismantle the bridge in the water, and create all kinds of obstacles for the pursuers, and Liu Rengong's Yan army strength is not as good as the Hedong army, Chad a victory, or have palpitations, when I see the Hedong army with a clear banner, the queue is neat, and when I see them chasing from a distance, the spear and halberd that stands like a forest will be forced to brush and brush under the order of the main general, and I dare not force it too much, this time the Hedong army has been preserved to the greatest extent.
In the past, Qin Fujian was defeated, 900,000 troops were killed, and the change of Tumubao in later generations, more than half of the 500,000 army was lost, and the Hedong army was fortunate to have two famous generals who deliberately embellished the rear of the position, so that the army's plan to kill and injure a large number of Hedong soldiers failed, although the army threw down countless grains, grasses, arrows, and arrows, and fattened Liu Rengong and Zhu Wen, the troops were preserved to the greatest extent, and 30,000 people successfully escaped from the Liang army and the Yan army.
While fleeing, while converging, although it is still chaotic regardless of the establishment and subordination, after all, there are many people, Li Ke used this to feel at ease, lying on the carriage, thinking about this inexplicable defeat, Li Ke was heartbroken, but his heart also understood that if the war failed, the Yan army and the Liang army would take advantage of the victory to counterattack and retaliate.
So in the car, he began to formulate a response strategy, and frequently issued edicts, ordering his righteous brother Li Siyuan to rush to Sanjiaokou, the commander-in-chief of military affairs west of the party, and ordered Zhou Dewei and others to be stationed in the passes, Ding, Gaoyangguan and other passes, and ordered Cheng Siyuan to sit in Xiongzhou and control the armies of Baoding and Baosu. Of course, some of these generals have not yet been found, and if the edict is issued, we must first find these people.
Li Ke used an arrow on the hip and thigh, at the beginning did not clean up the residual poison in time, the wound was swollen and high, every rì could only lie on the car, received an urgent report from the front line, Li Ke used a sudden defeat, and a big change, for a while, his mind was like numbness, and his brain was chaotic and only thought of this defeat, Hedong shook, and the gentry and peddlers were pawns, everyone knew that even if he could defeat the two armies and retreat from the Khitan, it was difficult to erase this wound from his life. As soon as he thought of this, Li Keyong couldn't help but feel like a knife, and roared violently, like a wounded tiger, extremely miserable.
Not far away, the defeated soldiers were dragging their tired bodies down the camp, although they were still exhausted, but they were close to their homeland, and everyone's gods were much more relaxed than the frightened bird-like expressions of the previous days. The army tent let out a terrible roar, and some soldiers in the vicinity heard it, but they were slightly stunned, and the probe looked in that direction a few times, and then continued to lie down by lying down, and those who were burying the stove to cook continued to add firewood, and in the distance someone was digging trenches, setting up antlers, and rejecting horses......
A wounded soldier with messy hair and an empty sleeve of his military uniform walked slowly near the military tent, sat on the ground, took out a bun from his arms, and gnawed slowly. After a few days of getting along, several of the inner servants standing there already recognized him, his surname was An, he was a soldier brought from Taiyuan, he was originally from the party, and he listened to his accent, and he was indeed a person over there.
This man is not very old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, if you look closely, although the beard is unshaven and unkempt, but if you groom and dress up, you will be a handsome offspring.
