Chapter 227: The Lost Dog

One: "Who is it?" Looking at Cheng Zhijie, it seemed that he had already abandoned the anger of losing the three legions, and what was left was just another helpless roar.

Li Shimin felt that he had done his best, and the people who could get around him would never make a dead move, why would they choose to betray at this time?

may have expected that his general trend was coming, and Li Shimin was a little unwilling.

At the very least, those who betray themselves cannot be allowed to have a good life.

"I don't know, King Qi is rampant, but it's not to the point where everything is said outside." Cheng Zhijie shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

The whole person was like a deflated ball, and all Li Shimin's confidence and reason collapsed almost at the same time.

What should come will always come, and you can only blame yourself for being soft-hearted at the beginning, which led to the current situation.

"I beg Your Majesty to move to Luozhou!" As if seeing that things had reached the point of no return, Fang Xuanling had to stand up and persuade Li Shimin to make the decision he didn't want to make the most.

"Luozhou?" Li Shimin was stunned, Chang'an and Luozhou are only separated by thousands of miles, and it doesn't take time for the Qi army to kill Luozhou, which is not the most suitable place.

But Li Shimin, who was already in a mess in his mind, was almost a little overwhelmed by the might of the Qi army.

"Yes, it's Luoju." Fang Xuanling said firmly: "Jiang Guogong has been operating in Luozhou for several years, and Luozhou is the eastern capital, living in the hinterland of the Central Plains, densely populated, and the strength of the army is not a problem. ”

"Is there a way?" Li Shimin asked with some confidence, the firepower of the Qi army can't even stop the elite in Guanzhong, how can the elite of the Central Plains stop it?

"There is ......"

……

As the weather warmed, the frozen river began to melt, and some soldiers wearing equipment were busy on the fast-flowing Wei River, some rowing boats and some fixed with wooden planks.

The figure of the pontoon bridge is emerging little by little, and the speed of construction is so fast that even the Tang army on the opposite side can only stand there and watch from a distance.

I want to use the bomb cart in my hand to interfere and destroy.

But before they could enter the firing range, the artillery fire on the opposite side smashed like rain, and after the storm, everything returned to calm, except for the craters left on the ground, not even the last traces of the previous Tang army in this world were left.

"King, all five pontoon bridges have been built!" Wei Qi was so satisfied with the efficiency of his subordinates that when he came to report to Li Yuanji, he had an unconcealable pride on his face.

From the time the order was given to the end, the whole process took less than half an hour, and the five pontoon bridges had been built, a speed that was absolutely unimaginable before.

Although it is a little embarrassing and tiring for them to say it, it is only at this time that their importance can be demonstrated.

"Cross the river as planned!" Li Yuanji nodded, not far from Weishui is Chang'an, and now Chang'an has almost no troops, if it is done well, Chang'an can be surrounded before dark today.

There were no fights, no fierce battles, no things that made people regret for a lifetime.

After more than a year of forbearance, only at this moment can I really feel that it is worth it, and I can use this way to advance to Chang'an, which has a crucial connection with the decision of the year.

Two thousand cavalry quickly moved to the south bank of the city through five pontoon bridges, and then guarded the vicinity, followed by a hundred bomb throwers and two thousand infantry, and as the bomb trucks crossed the river, the area of the guard began to gradually increase.

The rocket artillery was the third group to cross the river, and only fifty units passed, but this already allowed the troops who crossed the river first to advance without restrictions.

In less than two hours, the main force of 80,000 crossed the Weishui, leaving 1,000 troops on the side of the bridge to defend, accompanied by 20 bomb throwers and 10 rocket launchers, no one could break through their defenses with such firepower.

The captives, who had been hung behind them from afar, also stopped here.

They didn't have the opportunity to participate in this attack, the brainwashing work was still going on, and the soldiers who had no culture also showed their yearning and expectation for everything in Qi State.

……

Tai Chi Palace.

Li Shimin has rarely been here for a long time, and he has no face to see his father.

But now he has to come here, and there is no way to use the words he least wants to say to face the person he least wants to see.

"Are you ready?" Li Shimin asked the palace people with a straight face.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is reluctant to go......" The palace man responded with a somewhat hideous face and a little timidity.

"Rubbish! What is the use of me keeping you? Li Shimin scolded angrily, and directly waved his hand, and the guards who were already following him hurriedly stepped forward to pull him away.

The rest of the people followed Li Shimin into the palace.

Li Yuanji came back with soldiers, which made Li Yuan very happy in his heart, the son who had been complained about by himself for more than a year finally took action.

Li Yuan, who was in the deep palace, didn't know what the situation was outside, he only knew that Li Yuanji had already hit Chang'an, Li Shimin was helpless, and now he had to go to Luozhou with him.

Li Yuan is not Alzheimer's, how can he not see some catty? Naturally, he refused to leave, and as the emperor, he refused to go, who would dare to force it?

"Why doesn't my father go to Luozhou with me?" Li Yuan was lying on the rocking chair enjoying comfortably, and when he saw this scene, Li Shimin felt angry and couldn't help asking.

"I've been in Chang'an so well, why do I want to leave?" Li Yuan asked in no hurry.

"Now that Chang'an is about to fall into the flames of war, how can I watch my father stay here?"

"You are my son, and Yuanji is also my son, even you didn't kill me, how could Yuanji attack me? Go by yourself, I'm here, not going anywhere! Li Yuan snorted coldly, and the pen will go with you.

Li Yuan's words made Li Shimin speechless, but he didn't want to admit it.

In any case, Li Yuan himself must be taken away, otherwise he will still be powerless when he arrives in Luozhou, and Li Yuan, who is completely under house arrest, will be his last life-saving card.

"Father must be confused, come here, you have to take good care of your father along the way, if there is any mistake, I will punish you nine clans!" With a cross in his heart, Li Shimin directly left a sentence, turned his head and left.

To go or not to go is your freedom, to bring or not to take, I say.

"Rebel, you rebel...... Li Yuan's angry fingers trembled and pointed at Li Shimin and scolded.

But Li Shimin refused to even look back, and continued to stride forward.

"Did you find out?" Just walked a short distance, a black shadow appeared beside him, and Li Shimin still asked with anger on his face.

"No, the time is too short to find out."

"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! Li Shimin roared angrily, he couldn't do such a trivial thing, I really don't know what is the use of spending so much money to raise these people?

"Your Majesty......" Cheng Zhijie ran all the way to find Li Shimin, who was still in anger.

Li Shimin was stunned suddenly, looking at Cheng Zhijie, who was fully armed, and was faintly scared in his heart.

Generals are not allowed to wear armor and carry weapons into the palace, even a person like Cheng Zhijie is absolutely not okay, but now he has done it, and no one has stopped him, the last time it was Wei Chi Jingde who did this, the reason was to force Li Yuan to give way to himself.

"Your Majesty, let's go, the Qi army is only ten miles away from Chang'an, and if you don't leave, you really can't leave." Cheng Zhijie yelled at Li Shimin with a flustered expression.

"Isn't there a secret passage?" Li Shimin hurriedly replied, staring at Cheng Zhijie with a pair of sharp eyes, as if he was worried that he would get close to him.

Cheng Zhijie seemed to know Li Shimin's worries, so he stopped when he was five or six steps away, looked left and right, and saw that Li Shimin was relieved, so he said: "The tunnel was dug by King Qi first, how could he not be guarded?" Don't forget the secret guards of King Qi, I don't know how many secret guards there are in this Chang'an City. ”

"Then Xuanling, they ......" Li Shimin also realized that he had ignored the most important point, and hurriedly said in surprise.

"I can't care so much...... Cheng Zhijie shook his head violently, although he didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was obvious.

Li Shimin was stunned: "You want me to be scolded by the world!" ”

Cheng Zhijie is right, it's all at this time, who can manage so much? And until now, I don't know that Cheng Zhijie has calculated it from the beginning.

He deliberately told him about it in the court, and then persuaded him to leave, and agreed with the ministers on a time and place for them to go home and pack up.

However, it is not yet time, and Cheng Zhijie entered the palace dressed up like this.

Isn't the purpose obvious? This is to use those ministers as bait, and he himself will quietly leave with me, so the success rate will be great, but ......

"Your Majesty, if you don't leave, it's really too late, and after the Qi army besieges the city, it will be difficult to escape from Chang'an." Seeing that Li Shimin was a little hesitant, Cheng Zhijie hurriedly urged.

Li Shimin, who looked solemn, finally nodded, in the face of life and death, only by being alive can there be a chance to turn the tables, and now is not the time to take care of those things.

"Go and call the Empress and Cheng Qian, and bring the Emperor Taishang ......"

"No!" Behind him, he quickly ran left and right to call others, and many people may not be able to take them away, but the emperor and empress, as well as the eldest son Li Chengqian, must be taken with them.

Cheng Zhijie didn't bother about that, he took two steps forward directly, and urged with a hurried face: "Your Majesty, let's go and wait near the palace gate quickly." ”

"Good!" Li Shimin nodded heavily.

'Poof......'
