At dusk.

In the Hall of Great Cause.

Li Changhuan closed his eyes tightly, sat cross-legged, and his whole person was motionless like a stone statue.

If outsiders saw his situation at this time, they would be surprised.

Because he really didn't move at all at this moment, and even his breathing became very delicate, and if you didn't come up and check it carefully, it was easy to mistake him for life.

Zhang Shanxiang, who came to deliver the meal, misunderstood.

As soon as Zhang Shanxiang came in, he noticed that Li Changhuan was in a different state than before, as soon as he came in the past, Li Changhuan would immediately open his mouth to command.

And this time there was no squeak for half a day.

It seems a bit quirky!

"Didn't eat your lunch meal?"

Zhang Shanxiang opened the lunch box beside Li Changhuan, and when he saw that the amount of food in the lunch box was still the same, his brows immediately furrowed, and he asked in a low voice, "Young marshal, are you okay?" ”

Li Changhuan didn't respond, as if he was asleep.

Zhang Shanxiang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly reached out to probe Li Changhuan's snort, and his face changed greatly: "How can this be, young marshal, wake up!" ”

No matter how Zhang Shanxiang yelled, Li Changhuan never reacted.

This made Zhang Shanxiang anxious, he didn't dare to touch Li Changhuan casually, but he was very worried about Li Changhuan's safety.

When he was at a loss, Li Changhuan suddenly screamed, and then a mouthful of blood sprayed out of his mouth, splashing bright red on the ground.

"Young marshal!"

Zhang Shanxiang was frightened, stretched out his hand to support Li Changhuan's crumbling body, and asked, "Young Marshal, what's wrong with you, does it matter?" Do I need to call a doctor? ”

Li Changhuan didn't speak for a long time with a gloomy face, until the blood on his mouth was about to dry, and then he spoke: "The doctor is useless, go find a woman." ”

"Woman......" Zhang Shanxiang understood after a little hesitation, and said respectfully: "Do you have any requirements for the woman the young marshal is looking for?" ”

Li Changhuan said in a deep voice: "Two points, don't look too ugly, and you have to be willing." ”

Zhang Shanxiang said: "My subordinates immediately ordered someone to do it!" ”

"Wait!" Li Changhuan stopped him, "This matter should not be quiet, you can just do it yourself!" ”

Zhang Shanxiang nodded knowingly and took the order.

After Zhang Shanxiang left, Li Changhuan stood up holding his chest and said with a bitter face: "Your grandfather's, I can't even break through a single Jindan realm, what can I do in this future realm?" ”

……

After leaving the customs, Li Changhuan learned the news that Shi Huaiyi had defeated Qu Tutong.

It was a surprise, but it was also an accident.

Just because Shi Huaiyi's act of going out of the city to fight a decisive battle was a self-imposed and unauthorized action.

Although this unauthorized action won the battle, it also paid a great price.

There were only 40,000 troops in the entire Luoyang City, and after this battle, the Wagang army directly lost a quarter of its strength.

In other words, there are less than 30,000 combatable soldiers in Luoyang City today, and a large number of them are recruits.

You must know that the four heavenly kings and the 200,000 army under Yang Guang are all waiting outside Luoyang City at this time, even if Qu Tutong who suffered defeat is removed, which of the other three armies is easy to match?

30,000 people defending the city are not unable to defend it, but they can hold it for a while, but they can't hold it for a lifetime.

In order to avoid such an end, Li Changhuan was forced to reluctantly recruit Zhuangding into the army again.

This time, it is no longer a family and a family, but all men over the age of 15 and under the age of 40 in the whole city must be unconditionally enlisted in the army.

In order to defend the fruits of Luoyang's victory, Li Changhuan did not hesitate to be poked in the backbone every day, and even Shi Huaiyi's unauthorized actions were not punished.

First, it is because this is the time to employ people, and the great enemy should not be in a state of chaos at present.

Second, Shi Huaiyi is indeed a rare general, and he is also one of the few trustworthy generals in the Wagang Army.

If you really want to deal with Shi Huaiyi, it is tantamount to cutting off your own arm, no matter how you think about it, it is unwise.

Although Qu Tutong was defeated for a while, but it was only a little bit of loss of men and horses, for the four heavenly kings of the Sui army with an army of 200,000, it was actually a trivial fight, the Sui army did not hurt the muscles and bones, and the army still besieged the city as soon as it arrived.

Li Changhuan knew that there was a huge disparity between the forces of the enemy and us, so he simply insisted on hanging the card of exemption from battle.

The Wagang army can respond to all changes with the same, but the four heavenly kings of the Sui army cannot remain the same.

Under the urgent orders issued by Yang Guang continuously, as soon as the 200,000 troops of the Sui army arrived at the Luoyang battlefield on the second day, the whole army reorganized and rested a little, and then launched a fierce and ruthless siege battle.

From the very beginning, this siege battle was a three-sided battle to the death.

The main battlefield was attacked by Yuwenshu at the east gate, Wei Wensheng attacked the south gate, came to protect the children and rushed to the west gate, and the remaining Qu Tutong was stationed outside the north gate with the remnants, and launched a feint attack anytime and anywhere.

Li Changhuan only went to the top of the city on the first day to inspect it, and then never went to any of the city gates.

Luoyang City's city defense task was entrusted to Shi Huaiyi with full responsibility, of course, this time Shi Huaiyi was not allowed to monopolize the power of the hall, Shan Xiongxin and Wang Bodang also have the right to make military decisions, as long as there are major military decisions, they must be approved by three votes before they can be carried out, which can control Shi Huaiyi Hu to a certain extent, and also promote Wang Bodang's status in the army.

For Uncle Wang to have such a great power when he first arrived, many generals in the Wagang Army were not convinced, and there were not a few people who asked Li Changhuan to express their dissatisfaction.

But no matter what others say, Li Changhuan always adheres to his own opinions, and has no intention of removing Wang Bodang.

Others don't know Wang Bodang's ability, but Li Changhuan is clear, if the course of history is not disrupted, Wang Bodang will be a well-deserved number one general in the Wagang Army in the future.

According to the history of the wilderness, Li Shimin did not hesitate to kneel down in order to recruit Wang Bodang to show his love for talent, and Wang Bodang swore to follow Li Mi to the death, showing that the first would not serve the two masters, and would rather die than surrender to Li Shimin.

For Wang Bodang's preference to die rather than surrender, later generations have different opinions, which can be said to be the benevolent and the wise.

For example, Song Jiang's kneeling in "Water Margin", as soon as his knees were weak, he recruited a lot of former enemies to turn the enemy into friendly and not powerful, for example, in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Bei's Sangu Thatched House has also become a historical story, and this story has been passed down through the ages!

In fact, it is a very face-saving thing to be looked down upon by nobles, especially to be able to get the kneeling of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and to make ordinary people grateful, Chinese pay attention to face, and Li Shimin also gave Wang Bo enough face.

But Wang Bodang still refused, some people said that he was stupid and loyal, and there was no good bird to choose wood, but Zifei knew the joy of fish?

Perhaps in Wang Bo's mind, there is no other explanation for loyalty, nothing to do with word games such as foolish loyalty and good bird selection wood, that is, to choose a Allah that he recognizes, from the beginning to the end, and die without regrets.

Mencius said: The rich and the rich cannot be lewd, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, and the mighty cannot be bent, which is called a great husband.

Wang Bodang deserves such a big husband.

Some people also say that Wang Bodang is famous and famous, and would rather be the first general under Li Mi than a young general under others.

No matter what the reason is, Wang Bodang's talent is there, if such a talent is not used, he will either be confused or stupid when he is the boss, and Li Changhuan does not occupy these two things, so it is imperative to promote Wang Bodang despite public opinion.

Li Changhuan believes that all criticism is temporary, after all, people who are pregnant are the same as those who are pregnant, ordinary people can't see any clues, only time can prove everything.
