Chapter 253: Sudden Enemy Attack

After hearing this, Chu Luo Khan suddenly grabbed the straw that saved his life like a drowning man, and immediately asked Princess Yicheng to scatter the five stones.

Princess Yicheng, who had been prepared, quickly sent the five stones over, and personally helped to let Chu Luo Khan take it, and Chu Luo Khan immediately felt that he no longer had a headache, and there was a feeling of fluttering immortals, and Chu Luo Khan immediately liked this feeling......

In the next ten days, Chu Luo Khan took Wushisan for a headache, and the dosage became larger and larger, and on the fifteenth day, he took more than three times the usual amount, and then directly foamed at the mouth, unconscious, and failed to survive until the next day, and hiccuped.

Princess Yicheng first gave Luo Khan a medicine that would give people a headache for a while, this medicine is colorless and tasteless, and it will not be fatal, but after combining with Wushi San, it will produce severe poison, and finally broke out all of a sudden, taking the life of Luo Khan.

In this way, Chu Luo Khan only succeeded to the throne for about a year, and when he was preparing to send troops to invade the Tang Dynasty, he left the world with his endless remorse.

On the night of the death of Luo Khan, in the name of guarding the king's tent, he sent troops to control all the important places in the royal court, and the residences of the princes and ministers also sent troops to handle them.

The next day, Princess Yicheng reported the death of Chuluo Khan, and then convened all the princes and ministers to discuss the candidate for the next khan, and the final result of the discussion was to abolish the original heir Ao Sheshe, and replace it with the Khan, called Jieli Khan.

On the 26th, Jieli Khan sent an envoy to Chang'an to inform him of the news of Chuluo's death, and Li Yuan handled Chuluo Khan's funeral with the same etiquette as Shibi Khan's funeral.

After Jieli Khan succeeded to the throne, he immediately married Princess Yicheng as Kehedun, and Princess Yicheng married four Turkic khans in succession during her life, which can be regarded as a legend.

After that, Jieli Khan ordered the cancellation of the plan to invade the south, and let the Turkic warriors return to their respective tribes, and he had just succeeded to the throne, and his first task was to eradicate dissidents and consolidate his power, as he did when he succeeded to the throne, such as the son of Chuluo Khan, Ao, which was his first target.

At this time, the Central Plains is undoubtedly in the weakest moment. If the Turks can really go south, the Tang Dynasty will definitely face the catastrophe of annihilation, and future history should be rewritten.

However, since the death of Shibi Khan, the East. The Turks were faced with the turbulent situation of alternating power one after another, and they had no time to go south, which gave the Tang Dynasty an opportunity to increase its strength.

……

When Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was alive, in order to vigorously manage the Quartet, because Luoyang lived in the world, Luoyang was the eastern capital, so Yang Guang ascended the throne for more than ten years, all took Luoyang as the center of his activities, and Luoyang was the center of the Kanto Cao Yun, so Luoyang's Cangli is the richest city is also as solid, and the characters gather here.

After that, although Luoyang experienced repeated wars, the importance of the status situation was still no less than that of Xijing Chang'an. At this time, the Tang Dynasty already possessed Chang'an as Kyoto, and if it wanted to unify the Central Plains, it was necessary to obtain the eastern capital Luoyang first.

But Wang Shichong is not an idle person, although he is now not very popular because of his repeated tricks, but he is still a strong general, the treasury is full, the city is dangerous, and the territory he controls is also very vast, it is really not something that can be conquered and eliminated in the short term.

And because of the experience of Yang Xuangan and Li Mijiu in attacking Luoyang, the Tang Dynasty's combat strategy against Wang Shichong was to gradually weaken, isolate, and besiege him, and then launch an attack on Wang Shichong on all fronts.

On 21 March, Li Yin crossed the Yellow River with 500 cavalry in a large boat, and crossed the Yellow River with Wei Chi Jingde, Cheng Yanjin, and other generals, intending to go to Xin'an to discuss the specific battle layout with Li Shimin.

Although the two have been exchanging letters and discussing before, some things still need to be finalized on the spot face-to-face.

Li Yin walked while observing the surrounding terrain, he had lived in Luoyang for several years, and was relatively familiar with the terrain around Luoyang, but since he went north to Yanmen Pass, he felt a little unfamiliar with this land.

At this time, Li Yin led people to climb the mausoleum of Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty (son of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty), which is the highest hill nearby.

Just when Li Yin and the generals were about to climb high and look into the distance, the surrounding earth suddenly felt a sense of vibration, and Wei Chi Jingde slapped his horse to the highest place to look around, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and shouted: "It's not good, there is an enemy attack!" ”

It turned out that a large number of enemy troops had appeared around, and looking at the banner, it was the men and horses of the sworn enemy Wang Shichong.

"Why did Wang Shichong learn about our whereabouts so quickly?" Cheng Yanjin was suddenly surprised.

"I'll talk about this later, all the people and horses will break through to the west with this king!" As Li Yin spoke, he pulled out a big knife that had not drunk blood for a long time, and charged west with five hundred horsemen.

Forty miles to the west, it is the natural barrier of the eastern capital, Beibi Mountain, Qu Tutong led his troops to camp here to watch the eastern capital, so Li Yin will take the opportunity to make a decision and lead his men and horses to break through to the west.

The sudden attack of the enemy, with more than 10,000 infantry and cavalry, was personally commanded by Wang Shichong, and the army had surrounded Li Yin from all sides at this time, and quickly closed the encirclement, acting quickly, as if it had been planned for a long time.

Moreover, Wang Shichong seemed to have expected that Li Yin would break through to the west in advance, and had arranged Shan Xiongxin, the first fierce general in his current army, on the west side in advance.

Shan Xiongxin is the most valued person by Wang Shichong among the Wagang generals, not only was he named a general, but he was married to him by his daughter, and he often took him with him on weekdays, and treated him very well, so after Cheng Yanjin, Qin Shubao and others abandoned Wang Shichong and returned to Tang one after another, Shan Xiongxin still followed Wang Shichong and worked for him.

Under the personal charge of Li Yin himself, the morale of the five hundred cavalry was high and unstoppable, Wang Shichong's men and horses avoided on both sides, and when he was about to break out of the encirclement, Shan Xiongxin suddenly killed from the crowd and went straight to Li Yin with a golden horse lance.

Seeing this, Wei Chi Jingde roared angrily, and far away the spear in his hand towards Shan Xiongxin, Shan Xiongxin did not notice for a while, and was stabbed off the horse by the spear, and Wang Shichong's army retreated slightly.

Yu Chi Jingde and Cheng Yanjin and others, and escorted Li Yin to highlight the encirclement, Li Yin and Wei Chi Jingde led the cavalry to fight back again, entering and exiting Wang Shichong's team, as if entering a no-man's land, and finally killed a bloody road and ran to the north of the mountain.

Wang Shichong's army was still unwilling to continue the pursuit, but after chasing for more than 20 miles, Qu Tutong led the army to arrive and immediately intercepted Wang Shichong's army. The Tang army also captured Wang Shichong's champion general Chen Zhiluo alive and beheaded more than 1,000 levels.
