Chapter 1240: Su Lie's Past
1240. The Past of Su Lie
In the Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin sat alone, and there were two pictures hanging on the screen in front of him, one was the road map of Tuyuhun's march, and the other was the map full of civil and military officials.
With a cold snort, Li Er got up and took the pen and drew a blood-red fork behind the names of Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou, and Fan Xing, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, but after the painting, his face eased, and the pen in his hand was beaten again.
After a long time, he finally sighed lightly and erased the fork, only drawing a horizontal line on the name.
Originally, the good relationship with the party Xiang Qiang broke down, and more than 10,000 soldiers were lost, which should have been a capital crime, but Li Shimin couldn't get that hand after all.
At this moment, only a noise was heard at the entrance of the hall, and there seemed to be many footsteps coming, accompanied by happy laughter, Li Shimin frowned, and was about to get up, when he faintly heard a loud shout, "Mantou Mountain is a great victory, and the front line is ......a great victory."
Li Shimin's eyes widened, and he stood up, and an inner attendant rushed into the hall in response, "Your Majesty, great victory, great victory in Mantou Mountain, ah......", this little inner attendant received the good news from the gate of the palace, just running and cheering, tired and panting, "Your Majesty, Mantou Mountain is a great victory!" With that, he handed over a sealed report of war.
"What?" Li Shimin heard that it was really a great victory, and he was also inexplicably surprised, and said repeatedly: "Hurry up."
Before the words fell, Wang Jingzhong went down and took the good news and handed it to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin took it apart and looked at it, and was immediately overjoyed, "Okay, good, kill 20,000 enemies, capture 10,000, and hunt down King Bailan... Walk away...... Okay, huh? Crash landing in Mantou City in a few words? Haha, good, majestic, majestic, big rise my Tang Tianwei."
Sweeping away the previous haze, Li Shimin grinned and applauded.
"Haha, hearing His Majesty's hearty laughter, it is expected that I have already received good news from the front...". As he spoke, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others, who had just returned to duty in the political hall, went and returned again.
"Auxiliary machine, you also know, this Su Dingfang is really a tiger general, brave and strategic, but he can be created." Li Shimin put down the good news, looked at several important ministers and smiled, completely ignoring the previous anger.
"Such a great victory, the whole city sings the newspaper, we also hear it in the imperial city, I am afraid that at this time, the people of Chang'an are also cheering" The eldest grandson Wuji and the fat sister also laughed.
When the words fell, a deafening laughter sounded, and Cheng Zhijie ran into the hall, "Hahaha, Your Majesty, that Su Lie is really fierce, why didn't I see it before Lao Cheng, more than ten horsemen chased and killed the old thief of Bailan King to Mantou City, and he was stunned to behead him, he has courage, and he has a temperament for me Lao Cheng."
This manna hall is not the main hall like the Taiji Hall and the Liangyi Palace, it is just a place for Li Shimin to rest, read books and drink tea, so the ministers are not formal, besides, Cheng Zhijie has never been a person who talks about etiquette.
Hearing Cheng Zhijie's deafening buzzing laughter, the ministers were also laughing, although this old goblin was reckless, but he was indeed a good hand at setting off the atmosphere.
"Your Majesty, what is the specific battle situation, tell us quickly" Cheng Zhijie scratched his ears and jumped to his feet, "This waiter doesn't sing the newspaper at all, he knows a rough idea, and his heart is itchy." Saying that, Cheng Zhijie also glared at the waiter at the door, fierce and vicious.
The waiter also smiled bitterly, the battle report is so long, it must be an important abbreviated newspaper, how can you call it all down, you old goblin still thinks it's a decree.
Li Daliang was ordered to lead Su Dingfang and He Li, the second general of Qibi, to lead 30,000 horses, galloping from Shanzhou north to Mantou Mountain for a day and a night...... It is lit and thrown down from the high slopes of Mantou Mountain, and the white orchid part is burned...... Hey, this Su Dingfang is so bold", Li Shimin also hissed when he read this.
"This is a danger, if it doesn't work, I'm afraid this deviant division will freeze to death on the snowfield." Wei Weiqing and Ren Guogong Liu Hongji also sighed and exclaimed
"Hey, isn't this a success, Lao Liu, don't interrupt Your Majesty, Your Majesty will continue to speak, and then what?" Cheng Zhijie was also shocked, and then waved his hand to tell Liu Hongji to shut up, urging Li Shimin.
Li Shimin ignored the foolishness, and continued: "The camp of the Bailanbu was completely burned, and more than 5,000 people died in the fire and trampled on it...... Kill the King of White Lane under the city of Manchester Head City...... Forced to land in Mantou City, the king of Guangding surrendered by himself, and captured 3,000 ...... of the enemy".
Li Shimin twisted his beard, very satisfied, put down the battle report and said with a smile: "This Su Dingfang is brave and strategic, it is really commendable, such a talent, I didn't find it before, it's really a pearl covered with dust."
"Your Majesty, this Su Dingfang was originally just an ordinary general in the army, and was recruited by the prince to enter the Shence Army, and then performed well in the battle against the Turks. The eldest grandson Wuji, as the first assistant, remembers these things clearly, and by the way, he also lifted his nephew Li Pojun.
Li Shimin also nodded when he heard this: "I have an impression."
"Hey, Your Majesty, you don't remember this clearly as I Lao Cheng, although this Su Dingfang was only an unknown general in Datang before, but this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp", speaking of this Cheng Cheng Biting Jin, the old goblin seems to be in a somewhat wrong mood, his eyes are a little red, and he gritted his teeth.
Li Shimin frowned, a little suspicious, and asked directly, "What's the matter?" Let's talk about it", this Su Dingfang is obviously a rising star general in the Tang Army, Li Shimin does not allow him to have any problems.
Cheng Zhijie didn't laugh, and said bluntly: "Su Lie, this guy was originally quite famous in Hebei, and in his early twenties, he led the county soldiers to kill Zhang Jincheng, the head of the Qinghe bandits...... Later, Su Lie defected to Dou Jiande, and was valued by Gao Yaxian, a general under Dou Jiande, and accepted as a righteous son.......
Speaking of this, Cheng Zhijie gritted his teeth even more, and said with red eyes: "This guy has a good ability, but his eyes are too blind and he doesn't know the master, Dou Jiande is defeated and doesn't know how to come to my Datang, what did he do to Liu Heimin, if there is no such guy, my brother Shixin will not die."
Hearing this, the hall was shocked, Su Lie actually had something to do with the death of Tan Yonggong Luo Shixin? Looking at Li Shimin, Li Shimin's face was also slightly shocked.
Cheng Zhijie said again: "The battle of the water, Liu Heimin sent Gao Yaxian to lead the army to attack the city, Wang Junkuo's enemy was not enough, my brother Shixin led two hundred people to go up, but Wang Junkuo, the thief, took away all the troops and military resources, and the Shixin brothers led two hundred people to stick to the city of the water, resisting the attack of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but around the so, it was also shot the enemy general Gao Yaxian, after Gao Yaxian's death, Su Lie this guy offered Liu Heimin, dig deep into the Yongdao, Yongdao was completed, and the attack was eight days and nights, and the city was broken, The Shixin brothers were killed in battle...... If it weren't for this guy's bullshit strategy, Brother Shixin wouldn't have died."
