Li Xuanba really only took 8,000 soldiers out of the city, and Du Fuwei really led the army to besiege Danyang, such a God-given opportunity, where was Li Zitong willing to let go, after he confirmed that the news from all sides was correct, he personally led an army of 60,000 and marched in the direction of Jiangdu.

Li Zitong is not short of food for the time being, but the grain can be stored, and when the war is in chaos, which force will dislike its own food? Li Mi can gather hundreds of thousands of people, isn't it because he has a few granaries? He had already fantasized about destroying Li Xuanba's army, and then harvesting rice in front of the Southern Sui court, and then marching away in style.

The army of 60,000 was mighty, even though there were Li Xuanba, Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing in the army of the imperial court, Li Zitong was not afraid. Battlefield killing is not a one-man battle, no matter how strong your martial arts are, can you resist the fire of ten thousand arrows?

"Where has the army of the Southern Sui arrived?" The more Li Zitong thought about it, the more he felt that even God was helping him this time, even if he couldn't take the opportunity to take down Jiangdu, but if Jiang had no food and grass to use, Nan Sui would be half destroyed, his eyes looked ahead, with a smile on his face, and asked casually.

"Back to the king of Chu, according to the report of the spies, the enemy stopped and set up camp when they reached Hangou, and did not cross the river." The general beside Li Zitong replied: "The last general is worried about Li Xuanba's deception, and has asked the spies to keep an eye on the enemy camp, and once they leave, our army will receive the news immediately." ”

"You're doing a good job." Li Zitong nodded and sneered: "This Li Xuanba is not useless, and he also knows that with the help of the moat, in case our army sneaks attack, it's a pity that he forgot to leave a way back for himself!" ”

"Li Xuanba was too young, and he first believed Du Fuwei. made Danyang anxious, and now he wants 8,000 soldiers and horses to deal with 60,000 troops, after all, he is young and vigorous. The thin man beside Li Zitong smiled and said, "Jiangdu is already like a bag. Wen Shen congratulated the King of Chu. ”

"If it weren't for the news from Mr.'s clansmen, how would this king dare to rashly send troops?" Li Zitong laughed and said heroically: "When this king captures Jiangdu City, this Jiangdu is too guarded, and it is none other than Mr." ”

"The King of Chu is eloquent, how can Xiao Xiaojiang satisfy you?" Mao Wenshen complimented: "When the king of Chu settles down the world, it's not too late to reward the villain." Mao Wenshen's sycophants slapped very loudly. Li Zitong listened very happily.

When the two armies were more than ten miles apart, the spies reported that the Southern Sui army pulled out the camp and retreated.

"It seems that Li Xuanba has discovered our whereabouts." Hear the news from the spies. Li Zitong smiled even more, Li Xuanba let the army spend all their energy digging trenches and erecting fences, but the results have not yet met. I was frightened and fled back. It's ridiculous.

"King Chu, if our army moves forward another twenty miles, it will be too close to Jiangdu City, and when the Southern Sui Dynasty comes out, my army is afraid that it will be in danger." Mao Wenshen frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "Although Yang Tong and Li Xuanba have the potential to break up, it is a matter of the survival of Southern Sui. Yang Tong is afraid that he will not sit idly by. ”

Li Zitong thought about it and felt that Mao Wenshen's words were very reasonable. Then he casually asked: "According to Mr. Wang's opinion, how should this king deal with it?" ”

"If the king of Chu wants to capture Jiangdu, he must first cut off his grain and grass." Mao Wenshen replied respectfully: "The villain thinks that it is better to leave only a few thousand soldiers to stick to Hailing City, and transfer all the remaining soldiers here, so that even if our army is stationed under Jiangdu City, Yang Tong will not dare to go out of the city to fight, and maybe he will deliberately let Li Xuanba die." ”

Du Fuwei and Nan Sui were in the middle of a war, and they had no time to care about the battle situation in Jiangdu, let alone threaten the safety of Hailing City, so Li Zitong could indeed rest assured that he would dispatch troops.

And Li Xuanba is quite powerful in Jiangdu, just a loyal and brave mansion, it represents half of the Southern Sui court, if Li Xuanba is killed because of Yang Tong, maybe not wait for him Li Zitong to lead the army to attack the city, Jiangdu himself will be in a mess.

"What a brilliant plan, sir!" Li Zitong figured out the key, his eyes flashed, and he clapped his hands and praised: "What a trick to empty the city." Mao Wen stroked his beard and chuckled, looking profound.

The army stopped its advance and lit a fire to cook on the spot, and Li Zitong sent two generals to hold tiger talismans and ride their horses back to Hailing.

Looking at the curling green smoke in the distance, Li Xuanba, Yuwen Chengdu, and Pei Yuanqing looked at each other and smiled, and when their relatives were confused, Li Xuanba ordered Liang Xiao to return to Jiangdu first, told Wei Zheng that the plan had been decided, and let him enter the palace to meet Yang Tong.

It was only more than 20 miles to Jiangdu, Liang Xiao rode a fast horse, but returned to Jiangdu in half an hour, and rushed all the way to Wei Zheng's mansion. Wei Zheng had been waiting for a long time, and got on his horse and went straight to the palace

In the Jiangdu Palace, Yang Tong persuaded Yang Ling with a sad face: "Auntie, the relationship between Zhou Guogong and Shizuka is indeed innocent, and it is rumored that I am jealous of Zhou Guogong, but it is just a strategy set by Zhou Guogong." First, it can make the traitor Li Zitong relax his vigilance, and second, it can also find out who is connected with the traitor in Jiangdu City. ”

"Your Majesty, this palace is not angry with you." Yang Ling said sadly: "This palace is just thinking, why did he choose Shizuka, doesn't Your Majesty think that he wants to test this palace through this matter?" ”

A woman's intuition is very terrifying, if Li Xuanba hears Yang Ling's words, he will definitely break out in a cold sweat.

"Zhou Guogong has never been close to other women, and in his heart, there is only his aunt." Yang Tong was a little embarrassed, and comforted him in a good voice: "Besides, Shizuka is just a maidservant, how can she get into the eyes of Zhou Guogong?" ”

"How have you ever seen him care about someone else's identity?" Yang Ling's heart was even more uneasy, and he sighed: "If he wants to accept Shizuka, and the palace will not obstruct it, why bother not to test the heart of the palace in the face of state affairs?" ”

"This" Yang Tong was speechless.

When Yang Tong was in trouble, a palace person came to report, saying that Wei Zheng entered the palace to ask for a face saint and was waiting in the main hall, Yang Tong was relieved, and hurriedly asked the palace people to introduce Wei Zheng into the imperial study, and then bid farewell to Yang Ling and left in a hurry.

"Sister Yuan, did you say Ling'er guessed right?" Yang Tong fled, Yang Ling's gaze turned to Yang Yuan, and asked softly.

"Perhaps." Yang Yuan lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and replied, "I heard that since Zhou Guogong woke up, Shizuka has been taking care of him, and it is not impossible to fall in love over time. ”

When Yang Ling heard this, he said angrily: "Sister Yuan really can't comfort people. After a pause, her eyes dimmed, and she said calmly: "How can I not know about their affairs?" Shizuka is infatuated with him, and since he is also willing, let him be. ”

"With his current status, he is willing to test the mind of the Holy Aunt first, at least to prove that you are very important in his heart." Yang Yuan thought about it for a long time, and finally said a comforting word. It's just that she has been thinking about it for too long, and Yang Ling has really calmed down, at least it looks calm. (To be continued.) )
