When Dou Jiande collected enough ships, crossed the Yellow River in a big way, and fought a bloody battle with the Wei army on the south bank of the Yellow River for a day, and finally gained a firm foothold, there were less than 5,000 of the three generals in White Horse City.

Moreover, the city has already been attacked by the Wei army several times, and it was not easy to rush down in a bloody battle, but the Xia army was already exhausted.

The remaining less than 5,000 men and horses were almost all wounded.

The two armies of Xia and Wei all gathered the main force in Dongjun, and the two armies bet on all, and neither of them would let go of their opponents.

At this time, for Li Mi, who had an advantage in the battlefield of Dongjun, it was also bad news, Wang Shichong and Pei Renji were also related to Wei Wensheng, who was in the middle, and finally led 50,000 soldiers and horses out of Luoyang and began to launch a fierce attack on Xingluocang, intending to take the opportunity to recapture this big granary.

He sent his son Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji, each of whom unified 10,000 people and horses, out of Pengcheng, and divided his troops to attack the cities of Qian County, the offensive was like a tide, very fast, and in a short period of time, he even captured five county towns in Qian County.

Obviously, Li Yuan retreated into Pengcheng before, but he was just waiting for an opportunity, but now this opportunity has finally come, Li Mi is fully engaged in the decisive battle with the Xia army in Dongjun, and he is no longer able to take care of the south, and he finally made a move and began to march westward.

It was at this time.

Luo Cheng's White Tiger Red Flag finally appeared in the port of Qingdao on the Shandong Peninsula.

After Luo Cheng landed, he did not pay attention to the Xia and Wei battles in Dongjun on the south bank of the Yellow River, but directly led the army to quickly go south, directly approaching the three counties of Pi Pengcheng under the East China Sea.

All kinds of soldiers and horses, in the land of the Central Plains, are showing their own tricks and looking for opponents.

Li Mi and Dou Jiande fought with all their might.

Wang Shichong pulled Wei Wensheng and Pei Renji to do Li Mi's back road together, and I don't know how Wang Shichong, the prime minister of the Imperial Thai Dynasty, explained that Jingzhao Yin Xijing of the Guanzhong Imperial Court stayed behind and jointly fought Li Mi.

And Li Yuan had been with Li Mi before, calling Li Mi the leader of the alliance, saying that they would do a big business together, and our brothers surnamed Li were good. But now that Li Mi's main force is in Dongjun, he immediately stabbed Li Mi in the back with a knife.

Of course, in this chaotic melee.

The best performance is naturally Luo Cheng.

No one expected that Luo Cheng would suddenly go south with all his might in this early spring.

Coupled with the soldiers and horses who had previously gone south to Shandong, he fully mobilized 100,000 people from four loyal armies to the south, and recruited two more vassal armies, but 150,000 people were killed in a small place outside the pass.

And Dugu, a die-hard Sui relative, was suddenly killed by Fan Yang's soldiers at this most important time, making Fan Yangzhen, who was expected to be able to stop Luo Cheng for at least half a year, collapsed in a blink of an eye.

What's even more terrifying is that Luo Cheng actually turned Fan Yang Town, which was originally hostile to intercept him, into his own dragon martial army so quickly.

Several counties in Hebei fell into his hands at once.

Even the two major thief leaders who had been in Taihang for several years, Wang Suba and Wei Dao'er, were defeated by the Luo family army one after another, not to mention that they quickly incorporated these two thief armies and occupied the two counties of Shanggu and Hengshan.

This is simply the overwhelming trend of Mount Tai.

East County, under the White Horse Castle.

Li Mi couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the news that was a little lagging behind.

How did this happen in the blink of an eye?

Didn't all parties be as honest as cats before, and then he felt that there was still room for manipulation, so he wanted to kill Dou Jiande first?

What's the matter, now it's all alive all at once?

"My lord, the situation is very unfavorable for us right now. Wang Shichong has captured Jinyong City in the north of Luoyang, and has also captured the families of many of our soldiers. Pei Renji and Wei Wensheng are storming Luokoucang again, Luokoucang is the granary of our whole army, if Luokoucang is lost, our army will be in danger. ”

"And Li Yuan, he has captured Qian County, and entered Ruyin County to the west, and 100,000 people have returned to the Xiaoguo Army in the west, and now they are unstoppable."

Li Mi fell into deep thought.

Now is a dangerous dilemma.

The three generals of the Xia army in White Horse City resisted more than he imagined, although there were only a few thousand remnants left, it was not easy to take it.

Not to mention, since Dou Jiande crossed the river, he has fought three battles in a row, and Li Mi has hardly taken any advantage.

In terms of losses, he even lost more soldiers than Dou Jiande.

"Dou Jiande's situation is worse than ours now, but even if we annihilate Dou Jiande's Hebei army here, it won't do much good. Dingxiang Luo Siding, Monan Turkic Luo Simo, Fanyang Guo Xuan, Liaodong Feng Xiaoci, and Xi Qi, Xi Qi, Jin and Goguryeo vassal armies, more than 100,000 Luo clan troops have entered Hebei, and they have also occupied the north. ”

Dou Jiande's main force is now in Henan, and his hometown in Hebei is empty, how can he stop such a strong army.

Not to mention that the main force is not in Hebei, even if Dou Jiande's main force is in Hebei, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand the Luo Jiajun who is like a tiger descending the mountain.

I'm afraid that Dou Jiande regrets it more than him now, and he didn't expect that Dugu, the military town that was originally his domain, would be gone in a blink of an eye, and Luo Cheng could still have such a great ability to mobilize troops in this early spring, let alone expect them to attack so fiercely.

"Dou Jiande is finished." Li Mi sighed.

Wang Bodang reminded Li Mi, "Dou Jiande is indeed finished, and Hebei is also finished, we don't need to fight hard with a dead man now to make wedding clothes for others." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Let's make peace with Dou Jiande, let him go back to Hebei to fight the Luo family, and we will go back to clean up Wang Shichong and Pei Renji."

"What about Li Yuan?" When Li Mi mentioned Li Yuan, he gritted his teeth, this guy deceived himself the most.

"Luo Cheng and Li Yuan don't care about it for now, we can't fight on both sides anymore, send someone to contact Li Yuan, and say that we will lend him the Tao, and let them help the coffin of the Son of Heaven to return to Xijing." Wang Bodang gritted his teeth and said.

At this time, if you really want to stop it, you can't stop it. Although there are still soldiers and horses in various places, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, none of them can stop the 100,000 Xiaoguo who returned to the west.

"I'm not reconciled."

Li Mi looked up to the sky and sighed.

After fighting for a long time, he and Dou Jiande each injured tens of thousands of horses, but as a result, both of them were stabbed.

Twenty miles away from the Wei camp, the Xia army camp.

Song Zhengben, Ling Jing and others who accompanied the army also persuaded Dou Jiande to reconcile with Li Mi, and then returned to help Le Shou.

"I'm afraid that even if I go back, it's too late."

Dou Jiande sighed.

When he went south, he raised an army of 100,000 troops, and he still felt that the momentum was huge, who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, he would be on the verge of extinction?

"Your Majesty, even if Le Shou is lost, he hasn't reached the end of the mountain? Now, although I have fought several battles with the Wei army and suffered a lot of losses, our army still has no less than 100,000 soldiers, and the land of the nine counties has not been lost. ”

Dou Jiande nodded and shook his head again.

"Maybe I should remove the emperor's title and tie myself up to ask Luo Cheng for guilt, so that Hebei can avoid another war. I will descend to Luocheng, and you will join me in Luocheng, and you will definitely be able to preserve your wealth! ”

"Your Majesty, why are you so discouraged, and why is it defeated before you fight? Before, His Majesty led a 100,000-strong army south to meet Li Mi's million-strong army, and he was never discouraged at all. Song Zhengben persuaded him that now there are 100,000 soldiers and horses, and he still has the strength to fight.

"Although Li Mi has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, I really don't take him in my eyes, but Luo Cheng ······" Dou Jiande sighed, in the face of Luo Cheng's huge offensive, he really didn't have the slightest confidence.
