Luo Shixin, Cheng Zhijie, Bing Yuanzhen and a group of other military generals, hearing Li Jing say it so kindly, did not have any ridicule, did not make things difficult, said the breeze and drizzle, and there is a long way to go, and immediately calmed down the nervous mood of these generals.

"Invite a few generals into the commander's tent, and discuss the siege deployment later, and those Zheng troops outside will be temporarily incorporated into the army, and then disarm and rest." Li Jing spoke.

Cheng Zhijie hugged his fists and said: "Marshal Li, those soldiers are the old department of the Wagang Army in the past, and there are not many Wang Shichong's soldiers and horses, please take a clear look." ”

Li Jing nodded: "That's just right, there is no need to be isolated and detained, but at the moment of the war, my Dahua army does not need to surrender for the time being, and they need to adapt to Dahua's military discipline. ”

"Or the marshal is thoughtful!" Cheng Zhi node head.

After Li Jing gave the order, a partial general Mu Ronghua led thousands of men and horses to surround the Wagang sergeants, and then led them to the place where the army was camped, and collected their weapons.

The surrendered lieutenants and lieutenants were introduced into a camp tent to wait, and they were temporarily placed under house arrest, and all the armor on their bodies was removed, and they had to be replaced with Dahua's armor when they turned back.

Only Luo Shixin, Cheng Zhijie, and Bing Yuanzhen were invited by Li Jing to join the marshal tent, because these three generals were slightly famous in Wagang, and they were familiar with the troops and deployments in Michi City, the situation of grain and grass, etc.

Cheng Zhijie said: "Marshal, don't hide it, this time Wang Shichong sent King Lu, Wang Dao is the commander to guard this city, this King Lu does not have much strategy, nor does he have any ability, but he is a cousin with Wang Shichong, and he is related to him, so he was named a prince, and he usually treats the Wagang generals and the old generals of the Sui Dynasty very well, and no one is really willing to work for the Wang family, but Wang Shichong occupies Luoyang after all, and the families of many officials and generals in the city are there, coerced, and take the family hostage, Many officials and generals had to obey Wang Shichong's orders, and we were all familyless people, so we didn't have any worries when we ran away. ”

Li Jing nodded, understanding this situation, at present, in the eastern capital of Luoyang, there are many wealthy families, trapped there, many old ministers of the Sui Dynasty, the elders of the six departments, when Yang Guang moved the capital to Luoyang, he wanted to weaken the power of the gate lords and cut off the foundation of the Guanlong aristocracy, so he couldn't wait, almost barbaric.

However, such an effect is significant, what Emperor Wen of Sui did not do, was forcibly realized by Yang Guang, who was very ambitious, in one step, the gate valve aristocracy was cut a lot, far from the previous influence, plus the arrival of troubled times, the gate valve everywhere has been hit hard, which has been vigorously promoted by the imperial examination system in the Tang and Song dynasties in later generations, and the opportunity has been provided for the poor to take scholars.

The three of them will deploy in the city, the situation of grain and grass, and the follow-up reinforcements, etc., knowing themselves and knowing the enemy, Li Jing's victory is greater, it can be said that without wasting any effort, they can take the city.

"How is the military strength of Luoyang City?"

Bing Yuanzhen replied: "There are 100,000 elite soldiers, that is Wang Shichong's hole card, he will not be sent out to fight, he is afraid of losing everything, and the troops currently sent out to meet the battle are not his cronies' troops, most of them are surrendered troops, local Sui soldiers, new soldiers, etc., and the combat effectiveness is very low." ”

"The marshal wants to attack Luoyang, with Dahua's troops, it is not difficult to drive straight in, but Luoyang City is very strong, there are Weng City and Waiguo fortress, strengthen the defense, to conquer it, it will increase the difficulty, and the northern Dou Jiande sent a messenger to meet Wang Shichong, at a critical time, he will definitely come to the rescue, and he has to be guarded."

"This rest assured, there are Hou Junji and Lai Hu'er on the south and north sides respectively to explain and guard to block the rescue of Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei, and Xiao Liang, and as long as Dou Jiande dares to lead the troops in person, his end will come, after all, he will soon be in person."

"Your Majesty is going on a campaign?" All three were taken aback.

"Of course, there are so many princes in the world, Your Majesty will definitely go out in person and sweep away several princes, and I, Li Jing, am just taking the lead!" Li Jing said very plainly, and he didn't care whether he had established a great meritorious service, but that would be a great achievement.

This is the established strategy, Luo Zhaoyun is inevitable to drive the expedition in person, because the founding emperor must establish his image of a great man who is allowed to be a man of literature and martial arts, and only after he personally conquers can he control these marshals and generals, and can he be familiar with the generals, so as not to be unfamiliar with the military control, and finally be hollowed out.

Cheng Zhijie, Bing Yuanzhen and others thought that if His Majesty Dahua personally went out to fight, when the time came, they would have to follow their subordinates, and they would be able to establish greater achievements and not be idle.

"Marshal, I don't know where General Qin Qiong is?"

Li Jing said: "I am still in the camp outside Chang'an City, training the army, and I will also go out with Your Majesty when the time comes." ”

"That's great, when the time comes, Brother Qin and I can meet again!" Luo Shixin and Cheng Zhijie were excited, they were together with Qin Qiong as generals under Zhang Xutuo's account, but Zhang Xutuo was defeated and killed in the back, and they were separated.

Xue Wanqian also came to the camp tent, and when he heard that there were only 30,000 horses left in the pond, he immediately asked for a command to attack the pond.

Li Jing pondered and said: "Since several Wagang generals have agreed to withdraw, there is no one in there who we must surrender, so we can attack the city." ”

"The last general commands!" Xue Wanqian put on his armor and left, and was about to mobilize a large army to attack the city.
