Chapter 4: Enmity and Enmity (Part 2)

"Good!" Li Yuan stroked his palms and laughed, "If it weren't for Pei Qing's reminder, I would have almost forgotten that there was still a grain of volt!" That Cheng Mingzhen is most familiar with Dou Jiande's reality but I have given him so many benefits, it is time to collect some interest! ”

"Your Majesty is far-sighted!" Pei Ju arched his hand and smiled and complimented.

"It's Pei Qing who arranged it properly!" Li Yuan nodded and responded with a smile.

The two of them sang and harmonized, and had a lot of fun. The other civil and military officers in the DPRK and China dared to step forward to disappoint the fun, looked at each other, and then praised Li Yuan with a smile for his knowledge. Immediately, Li Yuan made a decision, and Li Daozong, the duke of Luoyang County, continued to lead the troops eastward, and if necessary, he could borrow the road from Xu Maogong, the general of Wagang, pass through Ji County, take a shortcut, and be sure to intercept and kill Yu Wenhua in front of Dou Jiande. However, there was no predetermined goal for this operation, and everything was determined by Li Daozong according to the situation. If Dou Jiande dares to come forward to stop it, he will give up Yu Wenhua and break it.

Subsequently, Li Yuan issued another holy decree to Li Shimin. He was ordered to immediately raise the banner of "revenge for the first emperor" and send troops to mediate the conflict between the Wagang army and the Luoyang army. When necessary, you can take the initiative to attack Wang Shichong and seek justice for the Wagang Army.

In the end, Li Yuan issued a holy decree to Cheng Mingzhen. He ordered him to lead his soldiers and horses over the Taihang Mountains and attack Wei County, Wu'an and other places under Dou Jiande's rule. Attract Dou Jiande's attention to create opportunities for Li Daozong.

The three decrees were completed. Li Yuan announced the dissolution of the dynasty. But he left Pei Lin alone and discussed the next step of the Hedong battlefield in the imperial room. In the meantime, it is inevitable that Cheng Mingzhen, Wang Fubao and others will be mentioned. Li Yuan smiled and praised in a low voice: "I promised you to buy a horse bone for a thousand dollars, but I didn't expect to buy back a horse for thousands of miles." Recently, Wang Junkuo's achievements have filled my ears. Such a talent Li Mi can't be used, it's really cheap! ”

"All the heroes in Wagang, almost all of them can stand alone. But under the hands of a fool, it's like a person who has a bad brain, and no matter how sound his limbs are, he won't do anything! Pei Lin nodded and echoed with a smile. Therefore, the ministers are more inclined to take advantage of the defeat of the Wagang army to show goodwill and recruit talents for the Tang Dynasty. And not to avenge a dead man for some irrelevant matter! β€œ

"Oh?" Li Yuan smiled and turned his head: "Why didn't you say that in the court just now!" ”

"Above the court, didn't Your Majesty not do any partiality?" Pei Lin shrugged his shoulders and replied very politely. "With so many old and young people present, if the minister makes his words clear, won't they be hated by them for a lifetime? Although His Majesty supported the minister, the minister had no fear in his heart. But being surrounded by them like a pile of flies every day is also a problem! ”

"Okay, you Pei Xuanzhen! What a courtier! Li Yuan laughed and pointed to Pei Lian's nose and said.

"If Your Majesty can always maintain the Holy Wisdom, what does it matter if the minister is a lucky man?" Pei Lin shook his head and replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Yuan was even more happy. It wasn't until tears flowed out of laughter that he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "You, a minister, are much better than those righteous men and gentlemen who are full of benevolence and morality." At least you can come up with some useful ideas for me. Unlike them, they only care about their own reputation, regardless of my country! ”

"The minister is not a wise man, but he is good at execution!" Pei Lin was not polite, and took Li Yuan's words to flaunt himself.

"Well, I admit it, I believe it!" Li Yuan smiled and nodded, then thought about it and continued to ask, "But Cheng Mingzhen hasn't shown anything yet?" I remember you said that of the three, the best material is the best! ”

"Good materials and beautiful quality, the potential is still in Wang Jun's straight line. The reason why it didn't appear immediately is that it was not put in Yingzhong! Pei Lin smiled and explained to Li Yuan in a low voice.

Li Jiancheng did not give Cheng Mingzhen the attention he deserved, which Li Yuan also understood through his own channels. In the middle of the cone, it will definitely stand out. If Cheng Mingzhen is really a rare talent as Pei Lin said, there can only be one reason why he can't get the opportunity to perform, that is, the prince can't really take him as a descendant.

Thinking of his eldest son, who was far more suitable to be a civil minister than an emperor, Li Yuan also felt a great headache, reached out and rubbed his temples, frowned and complained: "I have already arranged it to this point, what else do they want?" That Cheng Mingzhen is too, he doesn't know how to do it, but his temperament is very unruly! ”

Pei Lin checked the military report sent by Hedong in the past few days, and had already guessed that Cheng Mingzhen had tried his best to dissuade the prince's rash action according to his own instructions. For the young people who know about Entu, he is not hesitant to send another favor. After thinking about it, he said with a smile: "Chenguan Cheng Mingzhen, there is no backbone in the back of his head. But it's not easy to be accepted as a hawk dog. The prince can't use it, but I can use it. As for the others, they must not be so blessed! ”

"Oh......." Hearing this, Li Yuan felt a little better, "Okay, just do your best for Datang." He is only in his early twenties now, and after a hundred years, the prince will naturally be able to use him. You write two more instructions for me, one to Cheng Mingzhen, ordering him to cross the Taihang Mountain, and everything will be adapted. I don't set him any death goals that he will definitely achieve, if only he can get out of the way! ”

"Another one for the people!" Li Yuan paused and said very cautiously, "Order him to do his best to protect part of Wagang's bloodline since he is out of battle." Except for Li Mi, who I don't want, the other Wagang generals, who can be pulled over, will be pulled over by me at any cost! A dry grain and grass equipment, military pay materials, I allocated it to him from Chang'an! ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Pei Lin bowed down to receive the order. Grab the pen and paper, and wave the hand.

The eight-hundred-mile expedited decree and the oracle almost reached the east of the river. Cheng Mingzhen received the holy decree, ordered all the soldiers and horses under his command, and went straight to Wu'an County. His original hometown, Ping'en, Zhushui and other places have now become Dou Jiande's Gyeonggi strongholds, and they are heavily guarded. The Zhaozhou battalion could not get any advantage when attacking, so it abandoned and did not attack. set a fire in the wilderness two hundred miles away from Yongnian City, and then waved his army south, directly to Fuyang.

Fuyang County is the place where the giant deer defeated Feng Xiaoci that year. Cheng Mingzhen's prestige has not yet been dissipated in the ears of the people. I heard that he would lead the army again. The local officials under Dou Jiande didn't dare to fight hard, so they parried like a story, and abandoned the city in the middle of the night.

The Zhaozhou battalion entered Fuyang and immediately opened the official warehouse. Dou Jiande just received all the taxes that he had not yet covered in his hand and could be moved, and those who could not be moved were scattered to the people for free as a favor from the Tang Kingdom.

The people who didn't have time to escape were reaped, and naturally remembered the benefits of Cheng Mingzhen back then. For a while, he forgot to be afraid, and ran to tell each other, saying that Cheng Mingzhen invited Tang Bing to come and avenge his revenge for killing his brother and seizing land last year.

Wei County Taishou was an old Sui magistrate who Dou Jiande surrendered in Hejian County, and his surname was Koji Mingliang. I don't have any other skills other than being an official. When he heard that the Tang army had invaded the territory, he was first frightened and trembling, sweating like pulp. Later, it was discovered that the Tang army only had one battalion in Zhaozhou, and the number was only about 5,000. His body was immediately full of courage, and he gathered the county soldiers, government officials, and young men who could go into battle in the city, and gathered 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they were aggressive to regain the lost territory.

There was already a detailed work to transmit the news of Dou Jiajun back to Fuyang, and Cheng Mingzhen was immediately angry when he saw it. patted the letter sent by the letter sent by the thin worker, and said with a smile: "I wanted to lead Lao Dou back to attack, but I didn't expect Lao Dou to refuse to be fooled, but a waste snack was sent to the door." I really don't know what Lao Dou thinks, he doesn't need to let Shi Zan and Yin Qiu these brave generals, but he has put these corrupt officials of the previous dynasty in high positions! ”

"Lest the people rebel. Corrupt officials are useless, but they make him feel more reassured. Zhang Jin took the letter from the fine work, looked at it, and pouted. Lao Dou looks very confident on the surface, but in fact he has a ruthless inferiority. Therefore, as long as the officials of the previous dynasty were willing to surrender, he was eager to make offerings. For those old brothers who accompanied him from birth to death, he was guarded against tightly. Hmph, if this kind of person can achieve great things, God must be blind! ”

"What are you doing with so much rambling. When I raise 2,000 soldiers and horses and cut off the head of the surnamed koji, Dou Jiande will naturally know that it hurts! Wang Fei took a few steps forward and took the initiative to ask.

"I'm afraid it's useless for you to cut off Koji Liang's head, this level of faint official, Dou Jiande has collected a lot. They can be sent out to replace each other at any time. Wang Ermao shook his head and stopped with a smile. I think that as long as we don't build a pivotal city, we will definitely not be able to mobilize Dou Jiande's attention. Since he even has to decorate the faΓ§ade of a corrupt official like Koji Liang, he will not be willing to give up Yu Wenhe. At present, the Yuwen clan is still holding the Empress Xiao of the Great Sui in their hands, Princess Nanyang, Pei Ju, Zhao Changgong and a large number of important ministers and nobles, once the Dou family army can break Liaocheng before Li Daozong, and pull a former minister out of the captives, they will have more influence than Koji Liang. ”

"Then smash Wei Jun to a pulp first!" Wang Fei listened depressedly, waving his arms and suggesting loudly.

"No hurry!" Cheng Mingzhen thought about it and waved his hand gently. "Wait for the news from several other waves of scouts to see what Dou Jiande wants to do? Taking advantage of this time, it also allowed the brothers to nourish their spirits, either without fighting, or if they want to fight, they will take down Wei County in one fell swoop! ”

The camp went all the way over the mountains and mountains, and the brothers were indeed very tired. Therefore, as soon as Cheng Mingzhen's voice fell, the generals immediately suppressed their enthusiasm for war temporarily. After a short and half day, the scouts who were looking around for news sent the news back one after another. Just as Wang Ermao deduced in advance, Dou Jiande already knew that the Zhaozhou battalion had killed Taihang Mountain again, but he had no intention of turning back. He personally led an army of 100,000 to advance to Liaocheng non-stop in the starry night. The forward of the Tang army led by Li Daozong borrowed the road from the Wagang general Xu Maogong, and took a shortcut through Ji County, and the forward had already exchanged hands with Yu Wenhua and the ministry. But when he heard that Dou Jiande's soldiers and horses were coming, he had to withdraw from the battlefield for fear of being attacked by the enemy.

For a time, the three-way army watched from afar. No one dares to do it first, and everyone is afraid of making a wedding dress for others.

Calm, eeriely calm. It's like the eve of a storm, just waiting for a bolt of lightning to strike from the sky.
