The people who know you best are generally your enemies.

Tang Fengyi's mind is not too broad-minded, Li Jing had some trouble with him when he went to Lingnan to quell the rebellion, because he knew a lot about his enemy, and knew that Li Jing was a talented guy, especially in leading troops to fight.

Throughout the New Tang Dynasty, the Old Tang Dynasty, and the first few years of the Zhenguan Dynasty recorded in Taizong's Benji, Li Jing was the most mentioned person in the sequence of military generals, more than all other generals combined, which proves that in the early days of Zhenguan, in the most frequent years of war, all large and small wars, Li Shimin's most trusted person to lead the army was Li Jing, this is because his ability is too outstanding, and he has really achieved no defeat. The Tang Dynasty military god is not a waste of fame, if it weren't for Tang Fengyi's false accusation later, which made Li Jing rise to the idea of escaping the world, it is really hard to say what the history will be like in the future.

However, even if he is a god of war, there are times when he encounters troubles that are difficult to solve, and the army has only reached the wrong pass, and he has encountered trouble.

Nearly 20,000 horses and horses of the Hui Department went down to the village less than five miles outside the partial pass, attacking and not attacking, retreating and not retreating, and the partial pass guard Zhang Pengyuan ordered people to block the gate with gravel to prevent the Hui people from tackling key problems.

As shrewd as Li Jing, when he saw this scene, he immediately expected what was going on, this Zhang Pengyuan should be the lackey of those families, and he deliberately acted with the Hui people, just to block himself in the side pass and prevent him from going to Shuozhou.

However, the guard of the border is a border town garrison officer appointed by the imperial court, and without the order of the military department, Li Jing does not have the power to direct him, you know, due to the change of history, the personnel appointment of Li Tang's upper-level officials has also changed, and Li Jing's current title is only a county duke, and he does not have the title of the secretary of the military department.

Li Jing didn't have time to ask the messenger to go to the military headquarters to ask for any orders, but he didn't show it on his face, he calmly ordered all his troops to dismount and camp, and made it look like they were waiting for the military department's orders.

That Zhang Pengyuan saw that Li Jing was honest, so he knew that his errand was done, and he also pretended to transfer some grain and grass in the remote pass, and personally sent it to Li Jing's army to appease, but he didn't want to, at this time, Li Jing's knife and axe hand who was ambushed in the camp suddenly attacked Zhang Pengyuan and took it down.

"Li Jing, you dare to use swords against the border guards, do you want to rebel?"

"Ben Jiang is not a rebellion, you don't count, if you know each other, let your people clean up the rocks that blocked the door, otherwise, Ben will kill you first, and then report to Your Majesty, saying that you are treasonous and dedicated to Hui."

"You ······"

"Why, what do you think your majesty is going to do? You will only be beheaded by His Majesty for this crime. ”

Li Jing is a soldier, but he is treacherous, he can straighten out the chaotic south during the Wude period, how can there be no corresponding schemes, however, even if Zhang Pengyuan was afraid of death, and finally had to order his subordinates to clear out the gate, Li Jing was almost two days later than the scheduled time.

At this time, Sun Xiangfu, who led a hundred heavily armed guards and five hundred Shuozhou unity battalion soldiers, had already joined Wang Xu in Shuanghualing for a day.

"The Wang family is worthy of being the first-rate family in the world, and in just two or three days, more than 10,000 soldiers have gathered." Looking at the more than 10,000 soldiers brought by Wang Xu, Sun Xiangfu couldn't help but praise.

For the armed forces, since the end of the Han Dynasty, the family has actually attached more importance to it, although the people brought by Wang Xu did not have the same standard equipment as the imperial court officials, but they were equipped with swords, guns and arrows, most of them were wearing light armor, and their bodies were also strong, but they were not much worse than the soldiers of the Shuozhou Unity Battalion who had been trained for more than half a year.

"My Wang family has been operating in this state for hundreds of years, and this family background is still there, as long as Tuli is really as you expected, come to this Shuanghualing, and my son will let you see the strength of my Wang family's soldiers."

Although Wang Xu pulled Sun Xiangfu in this battle, he saw that he only brought more than 600 people, and he didn't think that he could take the responsibility of the main force, the Wang family soldiers had been trained by Wang Xu himself for two or three years, and he had been practicing for so long, to say that he didn't want to pull out to fight, it was fake, after all, he was a belligerent martial artist.

"In this way, the official can't ask for it, but most of us are infantry, and the place for this ambush has been chosen, but we still need to make more preparations." Sun Xiangfu said, and Guo Po, who was in charge of Shuozhou's military affairs, walked out.

"I also ask Wang Gongzi to temporarily entrust the deployment of his subordinates to the general, and dig traps and fortifications, which can greatly reduce our casualties."

When Wang Xu heard this, he nodded and agreed, although he had practiced for a few years and had mastered his personal martial arts, he had never really been on the battlefield, this was the gap between their family soldiers and the official army, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty began in the Wude years, and went to the battlefield almost every year, and the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers was almost unmatched, and the same number of Tang soldiers faced the enemy head-on, and they were never defeated.

Soon, under Guo Po's organization, more than 10,000 people began to dig traps on the road in the middle of Shuanghualing and arrange hidden horse rejection piles.

At night, when the soldiers who had worked for a day had eaten and slept in their respective camps, the subordinate of the intelligence group Shen Xing'er sent information to Sun Xiangfu.

"Tuli really bypassed Ma Yi and came to Shuanghualing."

"These fortifications organized by the last general, plus the arrow equipment we brought, should not be a problem to block them for two days, but ······"

Tuli's intelligence, Sun Xiangfu pulled Guo Po aside and said it, he didn't want Wang Xu to know that he had a powerful intelligence organization under his command.

"There's a problem, but it's okay." Sun Xiangfu saw Guo Po's embarrassed expression, and said with a bad feeling in his heart.

"The people brought by Wang Xu don't seem to be very united, some people work very hard, and some people are deliberately lazy, but maybe it's because of the lack of discipline, and the last general doesn't dare to assert."

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu's brows were raised, and soon, he thought of a terrible question, this is the Wang family's soldiers, and it is an important foundation force of the Wang family, so didn't Wang Lin develop a group of people who support him in this force?

The answer is impossible, there must be those who support Wang Lin among these people, and even those who support Wang Hao, but they are all under Wang Xu's management for the time being, so will there be any changes in their lives and deaths?

With such worries, sweat broke out on Sun Xiangfu's forehead.

"Captain Guo, wake up our people, gather together, the steel plates in the cotton armor are stuffed in, you can't take off your armor without an order, and you can't leave your sword in your hand, if there is no change in the Wang family's soldiers, our people will organize into a defensive formation as soon as possible, I feel that something may happen."

With the matter of sinking Wang Lin into the river in Luoyang before, Sun Xiangfu is very sure that what Wang Lin wants to do most now is to kill Wang Xu and himself, and Tuli came to attack Shuozhou, which was made by Wang Lin, so he must have some follow-up means, because, with Tuli alone, it is difficult to kill Wang Xu and himself.

And if the people who Wang Lin planted in the family soldiers suddenly attack when Tuli arrives, then Sun Xiangfu and Wang Xu will be attacked on both sides, and at that time, it will not be an ambush annihilation war, but an ambush annihilation war.

"Come, light a fire, and light the tent. Go and invite Prince Wang Xu to my tent. Sun Xiangfu put on the armor he had taken off, and walked towards the guard on duty at the door.
