Li Mi had just been defeated, and the army was so exhausted that they had not even built the fortifications, and the soldiers fell to the ground and fell asleep. Wang Shichong secretly sent more than 300 cavalry into Beishan at night, ambushed in the valley, and ordered all the soldiers and horses to be fed, and the people to eat well, and at dawn to force Li Mi.

Li Mi hurriedly dispatched troops to fight, and the battle broke out before the formation was set. Wang Shichong's ambushed cavalry charged, condescendingly, rushed to Li Mi's camp, and set fire to his barracks.

After Shan Xiongxin returned, he was suspicious of Li Mi, deprived of his military position, and prepared to return to Wagang for trial; The command of the army was given to Li Yuanzhen.

Li Yuanzhen was a first-order literati, and he was greedy for money and timid, and had no ability to command at all; Seeing the enemy rushing in, he did not dare to resist, and led the army to turn around and run; At this time, Li Mi's troops all fled, and his generals Liu Changgong and Zhang Dezhong surrendered.

Wang Shichong took advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat the Yanshi, and Li Mi had no choice but to flee and retreat to Luokou.

After Li Mi fled, Wagang's guards in various places surrendered to Wang Shichong, and Wang Shichong occupied all of Li Mi's original territory, and his sphere of influence suddenly expanded from Luoyang to the whole of Henan.

Wang Shichong took the opportunity to chase and kill all the way, defeated Li Mi, and he captured Pei Renji, Shan Xiongxin and other famous generals under Li Mi. The two were completely disappointed in Li Mi and surrendered to Wang Shichong. As a result, Wang Shichong's subordinates are full of talents and their strength has greatly improved.

After Wang Shichong defeated Li Mi, he led the victorious soldiers back to the city. The emperor named Wang Shichong as the captain and opened the Taiwei Mansion, and the affairs of the DPRK and China were decided by the Taiwei Mansion no matter how big or small.

Wang Shichong posted three notices outside the official office: one to recruit civilian personnel with literary talent and knowledge to help handle government affairs, one to recruit military personnel with excellent martial arts skills and courage to charge into battle, and one to recruit judicial personnel who are good at trying unjust and doubtful cases.

Since then, hundreds of people have been introduced in person to recommend or self-recommend in person, and Wang Shichong has personally assessed and hospitalized them.

He loves to engage in small favors, from top to bottom to the ordinary soldiers of the army, he uses exaggerated and beautiful words to lure. Visionaries at that time saw his duplicity and concluded that he had two hearts.

Wang Shichong once ate the food he rewarded in front of the emperor, and went home to vomit, suspecting that it was caused by food poisoning, and from then on he no longer saw the emperor and did not meet him.

He sent Yun Dingxing and Duan Da to the emperor to ask for nine kinds of utensils, including clothes, Zhu Hu, Na Ma, chariots and horses, musical instruments, tiger ben, axes, bows and arrows, and straw mustaches, sending a signal to seize power.

Wang Bodang abandoned Kim when he saw that the general trend had gone, and Bao Heyang and Li Mimi crossed the river in Hugao to prepare to return to Wagang. They led the remnants of the defeated army and the 20,000-strong army that had returned from Kim Yong Yong, Luoshui and other areas to the Jindi Pass outside Wagang.

Wang Bodang stepped forward to call the door, but the ambush soldiers were closed, and the soldiers tore down the banner of Wagang and hung up the banner of Li Tang. Guo Xiaoge, the general of the city, gave an order, and the arrows rained down; Shoot the Wagang Army down.

Wang Bodang was furious and waved his troops to rush the pass, but they came in a hurry, and they did not even have enough bows and crossbows, and there were no siege equipment; was defeated by Guo Xiaoge; is in a dilemma.

Li Mi's confidence is now lost, and Wang Bodang and others said: "The army is defeated!" I have been suffering for a long time, I will kill myself today, please thank you. Wang Bodang hurriedly pulled him down, and everyone else was crying, and they couldn't look up.

Mi Fu said: "All the gentlemen are fortunate not to abandon each other, I have thought about it for a long time, and it is none other than Li Tang to win the world; We should return to Guanzhong together. Although the secret body is ashamed of its merits, the kings will keep their wealth and wealth. ”

Peng Liuxie, the governor of his house, said: "The former basin returned to the Han Dynasty, and the food was lost, and the Ming Duke and the Chang'an clan had a past encounter, although they did not accompany the uprising, but they blocked the eastern capital, cut off the Sui return road, and made the Tang State take the Beijing division without a fight, which is also the merit of the public." ”

Li Mi nodded secretly when he heard this, so they left Wagang, did not surrender to Li Shimin, and left the Tiger Prison Pass directly and entered the Guanzhong.

At this time, Li Mi still had 20,000 soldiers; The ancestor made a greeting and looked at each other. Li Mi was overjoyed to see that he was valued, and said to his subordinates: "Although I am not enough, but I am kind to the people, hundreds of cities in Shandong, for my reason, I should return to the country." If the merit is not reduced, will you not deal with me with the Taiwan Division? ”

When he arrived in Guanzhong, Li Yuan personally greeted him outside the city, and the two of them entered Chang'an together.

Zhu Can led the remnants of the defeated army to flee all the way to his hometown Nanyang; As a result, as soon as he arrived in Yingchuan, he heard that Nanyang had been breached, and the power of King Garuda had been swept away.

Zhu Can was so frightened when he heard this; almost fell off the horse; He hurriedly led the army and fled into the Funiu Mountain, and arranged for the scouts to go to find out the news.

It didn't take long for Tanma to find Zhu Hao, the general he had left at home; Tanma brought Zhu Hao to Zhu Can's face; Zhu Can said angrily: "Say! How did Nanyang lose it, and who took my Nanyang? ”

Zhu Hao knelt on the ground and said in pain: "The king spares his life!" The king spares his life! The younger brother stayed in Nanyang, worked diligently, and did not dare to make a slight mistake; But he did not expect that a group of enemies would suddenly come from the south; The younger brother was caught off guard and was taken away by them Dengzhou and Nanyang. ”

Zhu Can shouted angrily: "Who is it?" Who did it? ”

"It's the Great Demon Kingdom, it's the military department of the Great Demon Kingdom, and the military advisor Li Jing! He wasn't sick at all; It's all a lie; Somehow, he suddenly appeared to the south of us and took our foundation. ”

Zhu Can spurted a mouthful of blood when he heard this, and said angrily: "Cheng Zhijie deceived people too much, give me the whole army and horses to take Nanyang back for me." ”

Li Jing and Cheng Zhijie made a plan, and he returned to Shandong accompanied by Zhang Chuchen on the grounds that he was seriously ill and needed to return to Shandong for recuperation. As soon as he was in Shandong, he said that he was not sick, and he no longer saw outsiders; All the family affairs were handed over to his wife Zhang Chuchen.

In fact, Li Jing had quietly left Donglai, accompanied by the old generals Yang Lin and Ding Yanping, who had untied their knots; With 10,000 troops, they boarded Zhang Ding's naval warship and prepared to land from Jianghuai to raid the enemy's rear.

Yang Lin came to Dengzhou, but he revisited the old place, but it was no longer a thing; I couldn't help but sigh again and again; Ding Yanping smiled: "Brother, we are all old; The Great Sui also no longer exists. You are now considered a successor, let's work hard for future generations. ”

Yang Lin thought of the warmth in Qin Qiong's step-son Yang Jiye's heart, stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes! Now there are many heroes, and we are all old; After this battle; I'll just let it go; Let's take a good look at this great river and mountain. ”

"Two generals, we're about to set off." Li Jing came up from behind and interrupted the conversation between the two of them. Yang Lin and Ding Yanping had seen Li Jing's ability, and they admired him for their five bodies, but they didn't dare to rely on the old and sell the old, so they agreed to lead the army on the warship.

The warships of the Great Demon Kingdom are not only larger, but also much stronger and more stable; They rode in warships and went all the way south along the coastline to Jiangdu.

Seeing that they were at the mouth of the Yangtze River, they accidentally ran into a fleet of ships on the way; This fleet consisted of dozens of warships, and the ships were densely packed with armies armed with knives and guns.

Li Jing was stunned when he heard the report, he came outside to find Zhang Ding and asked, "Big brother, what's going on?" Whose team is it? I haven't heard of anyone in the Central Plains who has such a powerful navy? It is the team of Xiao Jue, the king of Liang. ”

Zhang Ding said with a smile: "Look at the flag is the army of the Ryukyu Kingdom, why did they come here?" It just so happened that we had always wanted to capture the Ryukyus; annihilated their army; It saves a lot of trouble. Third brother, you watch how I clean them up. ”

Li Jing smiled: "Okay! I don't understand the water war, so I can observe it and take the opportunity to appreciate the heroic posture of the eldest brother, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone. ”

"Naval warfare is more dependent on warships and weapons; It is estimated that the third brother will be disappointed; If we fight them, it is equivalent to a strong man fighting with a child, and there is nothing to see. Order, the fleet is separated, the sides are encircled, and I will annihilate them all this time! ”

The herald waved his flag, and the Great Demon Kingdom's fleet scattered in all directions, listing an attack formation.

The fleet on the opposite side was the army led by Prince Aoyu of the Ryukyu Kingdom; He once traveled to the Central Plains and met the people of Tieguandao in Jiangdu. This time, it was at the invitation of the Tieguan Daoist to help Wang Shichong.

Of course, helping the Tieguan Dao people is only one aspect, he also wants to see the world of flowers in the Central Plains; If you can clean up the Great Demon Kingdom by the way, it will be the best to avenge yourself.

Who knew that they had just arrived at the Yangtze River port, and they met the army of the Great Demon Kingdom unexpectedly. Aoyu saw the banner of the Great Demon Kingdom at a glance; Then I saw Zhang Ding on the flagship.

"Wow! It turned out to be you! Heaven help me to get revenge! At sea, how are you Central Plains people our opponents in the Ryukyus? Come! Give me full speed, I'm going to throw all the enemies into the sea and feed the sharks! ”

The soldiers under his command agreed, and the sails and oars rushed towards the navy of the Great Demon Country.

Zhang Ding also saw Aoyu at this time and laughed: "It's really not that the enemies don't get together, I didn't expect to meet the prince of Aoyu here." It's great that as long as we defeat him, the Ryukyu Kingdom is not in our pocket. Crossbows and thunderbolts are ready! Sink them all! ”

Several crossbows were fixed on the deck of the Great Demon Battleship, and the sailors pulled the crossbows, installed arrows like iron spears, and then ignited the thunderbolts tied to the arrows.

"Put!" Zhang Ding shouted, and the crossbow arrow shot over with the sound of piercing the sky.

The soldiers of the Ryukyu Kingdom were stunned for a while, and this began to attack? That's 500 steps, isn't it? Is the Great Demon Kingdom crazy or stupid? Is there a bow and arrow in the world that shoots so far?

"Bang!" As soon as they were stunned, the bolts were already slightly empty, and then they were nailed to the hull of the ship; The huge impact made the battleship stunned.
