Chapter 415: Meeting on a Narrow Road (2)
What is not bad for my speculation is that although the Khitans were mixed into the Turkic army and originally had the potential to win, due to the help of the sharpshooters who suddenly appeared later, the Khitans' sneak attack was unsuccessful, and less than half of the more than 10,000 people who fought with the Turks retreated.
I saw that the Khitans had retreated in a hurry, and the Turks were gaining momentum, and I was afraid that they would be more courageous when they turned back to deal with Xu Shiyun, and I was afraid that I would not be able to resist them at that time, so I infiltrated the Turkic army and walked with them for a while.
Li Shimin was quite respected in Shi Bo Bi's army, and I think it was because he was quite polite to him when he was in power, and Shi Bo Bi had a good relationship with Tong Lifu, so he respected Li Shimin very much.
He is known for his ability to lead troops into battle, and I expected that the army recruited from Li Yi's office would not be able to resist, so I followed behind them step by step, and later squeezed inside and came behind Li Shimin.
A person is often the first to perceive danger when encountered, and Li Shimin is no exception, he frequently looks back, as if he senses that someone is beating his idea.
But every time he turned back, I learned from the Turk to walk forward without squinting, because he couldn't recognize me for a moment because of the slightest disfigurement.
At this time, the army in front suddenly stopped, and I also stopped, only standing not far behind Li Shimin, I saw a fast horse galloping towards me, and immediately a person dressed as a Turkic rushed straight in front of Li Shimin, and then turned over and dismounted and arched his hand: "My lord, in the land of Shanxi, General Zhang has been defeated and retreated, and has fled into the mountains. Mr. Changsun inquired about the main bus generation in many ways and found out a little clue. ”
Li Shimin asked, "What clues?" ”
The man looked around, but he was silent.
Li Shimin looked around, said a few words to the Turkic leader, and then motioned for the person to step aside, I followed them, only to hear the man whisper as he walked: "The people who joined forces with the Seven Immortals Villa to deal with the Shence camp in Luoyang that day seem to be related to the previous dynasty. ”
Li Shimin was slightly stunned and said, "How can you say this?" ”
"According to Mr. Changsun, after Yang Guang was killed in Jiangdu, his personal soldiers ...... Many of the people in the Xiaoguo army were still loyal to him, and they protected Empress Xiao until Empress Xiao's death. Because of his friendship with Yang Guang, Chu Luo Khan appointed Yang Zhengdao, the son of Yang Xuan, the king of Qi, as the king of Sui, and the commander of the Xiaoguo army at that time did not express it in the face of Empress Xiao. ”
Li Shimin asked, "Who is this person?" Is he dissatisfied with Yang Zhengdao? ”
Laidao: "Exactly. This person heard that he was a guard by Yang Guang's side in the past, and as soon as Empress Xiao died, he had the intention of abolishing the establishment, saying that it would be okay for others to be the king of Sui, but Yang Yin's son would not be good, and he seemed to hate Yang Yong very much. ”
I don't have to listen any more to already know that this person is Ding Cheng.
The man still wanted to say that he had left the ranks of the Turks, and then he would definitely be discovered, I thought about it, and when they walked out not far away, he lightly flew down in front of Li Shimin out of thin air, and his sword fell, and he had already killed the person who sent him the message on the spot, Li Shimin was stunned and drew his sword to fight back, I turned around and picked it, and cut his sword in two.
"Long time no see." I deceived him in front of him, put the sword in my hand against his neck, and said coldly.
Li Shimin was stunned for a long time, just because he was under my control, he couldn't vent, but he still said hatefully: "Big brother is still so fearless, he dares to break into the Turkic army alone." ”
I said coldly, "Come with me." ”
Li Shimin didn't move, but said, "You might as well kill me with a sword." ”
I said, "Why should I kill you?" I wonder if he is still alive, but I also know that if you are not in command, he would be a waste, am I right? ”
Li Shimin silently did not answer.
I added: "He should only listen to Li Xuanba and Qiu Budu, why would he obey you?" ”
Li Shimin said coldly: "Li Xuanba made him like this, but he only learned it from others, can he learn it, but I can't break it?" Big brother, you are too underestimating people. ”
I nodded and said, "Come with me." ”
Now he did not disobey, but I carried him to a hill, and when he reached the mountainside, those people were already a little impatient with waiting, and when they saw me return, they each breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Shimin has been in the army for a long time, and there are people who recognize Li Shimin, and when they see us in such a situation, they all have the idea of watching the excitement.
I put away my sword and said, "Let me ask you, is everything in Luoyang City from your plan?" ”
Li Shimin sneered, glanced at me and said, "Li Xuanba is so smart, why do you need others to guide him?" That was his own idea. ”
My heart sank, and the glimmer of hope that I still had was gone.
Li Shimin said again: "Big brother, don't hide it, I really want to kill you, but I will only kill you, Zimin's sister-in-law used to be very good to me, but I will never embarrass her." Li Xuanba behaved like this, I can't do it! ”
I was silent for a long time when I heard this, and I knew that he knew everything that happened in Luoyang very well, and when he mentioned Zimin, I thought that Li Xuanba couldn't even compare to Li Shimin, and I was really uncomfortable when I failed Zimin's heart in vain.
Li Shimin said again: "What do you want to do if you hold me hostage here?" If you want to kill, why should you be arrogant in front of me? ”
My heart moved, and I said coldly: "Just for what you just said, I won't kill you." But I want to know, what exactly are your intentions? ”
Li Shimin sneered slightly, and pointed to the people behind me: "You came to Hebei, killed Li Yi for no reason, and occupied the land of Hebei with the intention of invading south, what are your intentions?" Big brother, you gave away this world at the beginning, do you regret it now? Li Xuanba is so stupid! ”
He didn't answer me, but I ignored him, but repeated, "What are your intentions?" ”
Li Shimin said: "It's the same as the eldest brother, but I don't have your good luck, I have taken advantage of it since I was born, you can play with it at will in this world, I have to spend a lot of time." ”
He is not as frivolous and restless as before, and after all kinds of experiences, he is much more stable, but for some reason, there always seems to be a little childishness between his words.
I said, "Why do you want to check the past affairs?" ”
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment and said, "So you have already listened?" It is true that the matter is from the previous dynasty, but it is not an old thing, in Luoyang that day, in addition to the revenge of the Seven Immortals, it is the old department of the King of Sui, why, you don't know? ”
I was stunned when I heard this, it was clearly Tang Lin...... Tang Lin!
Li Shimin saw my face with a look of surprise, and then coldly "snorted" and said: "The Turks are wanton provocation, completely ignoring the overall situation, giving you the opportunity to win the hearts of the people, and now without the help of my archers, they can't hold on to your people, and it is estimated that they will withdraw if they can't win, since you don't kill me, let me leave." ”
I shook my head and said, "I always thought that Li Xuanba was just a pawn used by you, and I was bewitched by you, but I didn't expect it to be the case, so let's go." ”
Seeing that I didn't stop him anymore, Li Shimin took two steps forward, then turned back and said, "Do you think Li Xuanba will be willing to be my pawn?" If one day he falls into my hands, I will make him die an ugly death. ”
