On the night when Li Yuan appointed Li Yin as the general of Peking University and the governor of Bingzhou, Haoyue was empty, in the palace of the King of Jin, Li Yin was drinking with the strategists and generals, Fang Xuanling, Song Zhengben and others were not absent, and the eldest grandson Wuji, Liu Wenjing and others were also impressively listed.

Li Yin was finally able to lead the troops to the battle, which should have been a happy thing, but when he had passed the three rounds of drinking, Li Yin sighed and showed a sad face.

"King Jin is worried about Liu Wuzhou's affairs?" Liu Wenjing felt a little surprised and asked Li Yin.

Li Yin shook his head, "Liu Wuzhou is strong, but how can I be afraid of him?" What worries me is not the enemy, but within the walls! ”

After Li Yin said this, Liu Wenjing and the others looked at each other for a while, and then lowered their heads and pondered.

Li Yin continued: "Ever since I fought against Longyou, the East Palace has been very hostile to my Jin Palace, in Li Rukun's case, if I hadn't happened to meet Uncle Eldest Sun, he would still be able to sit in the position of General Zuo Xiaowei safely?" Therefore, I am not afraid of Liu Wuzhou on this expedition, but I am afraid that the East Palace will use means again to cause disaster to those who stay in Chang'an. ”

Liu Wenjing looked at Li Yin thoughtfully, "I don't know what King Jin thinks the East Palace will deal with next, which one of us will deal with?" ”

Li Yin stared at Liu Wenjing, "I think that the next thing the East Palace will deal with is you, sir!" ”

As soon as Li Yin's words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked, and Liu Wenjing was even more surprised, "How dare they do this?" ”

What Li Yin said is not a guess out of thin air, because in history, Liu Wenjing was killed this winter, and the crime was still a major crime of rebellion.

"Sir, have you been complaining a lot lately?" Li Yin said to Liu Wenjing.

After Liu Wenjing heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then cold sweat broke out on her forehead, "How did King Jin know?" I've been drinking lately and I've been saying a bit of nonsense lately, and I've often regretted it afterwards. ”

When Taiyuan raised troops, Liu Wenjing was in the position of Sima of the General's Mansion, which was roughly equivalent to Pei Lian's prestige.

In the process of marching into Guanzhong, Liu Wenjing made plans and fought in the east and west, while Pei Lin would only slap the horse, but now, Pei Lian's official residence and servant shooting, and he has a mansion that is superior to everyone, and Liu Wenjing's official position is only to accept words, and the rewards he receives are no different from those of everyone.

In addition, Pei Lin has repeatedly made big mistakes recently, but he has not suffered any punishment, so Liu Wenjing is very dissatisfied with this.

Li Yin didn't answer how he found out, but said: "Since I can know Mr.'s complaints, people with a heart will definitely be able to know, if they use this more, it is not difficult to slander and frame Mr., and Mr. is my main help in the court, so I will guess that the next target of the East Palace is you, Sir." ”

After Li Yin's explanation, everyone felt that his guess was not unreasonable, and Liu Wenjing's situation was indeed precarious.

The case of Liu Wenjing in history is full of doubts, and when Li Yin read history books and saw this place in his previous life, he had many doubts in his heart. Li Yuan has always been very lenient, and many officials who have committed crimes have been dismissed and exiled at most, not to mention that Liu Wenjing is a hero of the founding of the country, how could he end up miserable?

I am afraid that this is also involved in the struggle between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, even if Liu Wenjing's refuge is replaced by Li Yin, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the enemy's vicious heart, because if Li Yin loses Liu Wenjing, it is tantamount to cutting off an arm, and his influence in the court will be greatly weakened.

Liu Wenjing's expression had returned to normal at this time, and he pondered for a long time, "Then King Jin thinks, how should I deal with it?" ”

Li Yin looked at Fang Xuanling and the others, and said with a smile: "This has to be summed up together." ”

……

On the sixth day of the seventh month, Li Yuan drove to Huayin and led hundreds of officials to Changchun Palace to see off Li Yin, who had gathered troops and was ready to leave Tongguan.

Since last night, Huayin is a strong wind, and at this time it is blowing the flag hunting, Li Yuan instructed Li Yin: "The emperor is out of the customs this time, don't be in a hurry to engage the enemy, find out the enemy's reality, and then attack is not too late." ”

Li Yin has been in battle for a long time, how to deal with Liu Wuzhou, he doesn't need Li Yuan to teach, Li Yuan also understands this very well, but in this situation, Li Yuan doesn't know what to say, so he has to casually ask Li Yin a few words.

Between Li Yuan and Li Yin's father and son, there is no longer as much to talk about as when they were dormant in Jinyang.

"The son will live up to the trust of his father and the father of Guanzhong!" Li Stealth, wearing golden armor, replied loudly on one knee.

Li Yin's words revealed great confidence, but after Li Yuan and Baiguan heard it, they didn't think he was arrogant. If the hundred officials had to find a figure who could save the situation in Hedong at this time, no matter who it was, there would be no doubt that Li Yin, the king of Jin, would think of it first.

After all, Li Shimin still has the defeat of Gao Yuan, but Li Yin has no defeat, and he is the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty.

"Woo!" The dull trombone sounded, Li Yin stepped on the stirrup and sat on the yellow horse, hugged his fists to Li Yuan and the hundred officials, and then rode to the place where the Chinese army was, and after giving the order to the whole army, he marched east with an army of 100,000.

After Li Yin led the army to leave, Li Yuan led hundreds of officials to worship Huashan and pray for heaven and earth.

Li Yinbing out of Tongguan, through Puzhou, into Jiangzhou, and finally stationed troops in Baibi (located in the south of Zhengping City, Jiangzhou Zhishuo, now twenty miles southwest of Xinjiang County), sent soldiers from Yongfeng warehouse to store grain here, and did not go to war, and Song Jingang held here.

The battle of Baibi between Datang and Liu Wuzhou began!

For Liu Wuzhou, Li Yin had already discussed with Fang Xuanling and others how to deal with it.

War, in addition to the contest between the front-line generals, is also a contest of national strength between the two sides, the current Tang Dynasty, according to the relevant Zhong, Longyou, Hexi, Bashu and other regions, the land is wide, the people are rich, and occupy the Yongfeng Cang and other large granaries left over from the Sui Dynasty, in terms of war potential, has been the first today.

This is the reason why since the beginning of the year, even if the Tang Dynasty has been fighting on four fronts, even if the battles are continuous, it still has the strength to respond to the enemy.

On the other hand, Liu Wuzhou's side, when the army was raised, occupied Mayi, Loufu, Dingxiang and other places, are not grain production places, the population is not much, after the attack on Tang this year, the territory has increased sharply, the strength has skyrocketed, it can be said that one bite has become a big fat man, there are many hidden dangers.

Therefore, Li Yin's strategy against the enemy was to hold on to the enemy in this Baibi, and then use various means to invade Liu Wuzhou's rear, and when Song Jingang's army showed its flaws, he would attack in one fell swoop and defeat it completely!
