After the warrior envoy to the Turks, relying on his wit and the greed of the Turkic Shibi Khan, he completed the task brilliantly, not only brought back more than 3,000 war horses, but also more than 2,000 Turkic cavalry teams composed of slaves, (these slaves are the Turkic children who have been harassed and captured back by the Turks in the border pass, and they are made up of slaves when they grow up,) Li Yuan looked at those fat and healthy war horses and strong soldiers, and was very happy, Li Jiancheng looked at the cavalry composed of these slaves, and thought: 'It's just right, these slaves can help us fight the world now, In the future, when I swept away the Turks, I was also a living map. Li Yuan ordered a feast to celebrate the achievements of the warriors, and at the banquet, Li Yuan frequently toasted the warriors and Pei Lian:

"Brother Wuxian, Brother Pei Shi, you have made great contributions this time, and your hard work is high!"

"It's all handsome and wise."

"Yes! The handsome man is the work of the handsome, and we are just doing our best. Listening to Pei Lin and Wu Shitong's flattering words, Li Yuan's face didn't know if it was excitement or the influence of alcohol, and his face was flushed.

"Hmmm! Very good, we need to do a few things now, first, to disperse and mix those Turkic slave soldiers, and to belong to their own generals, and they cannot be used casually when they are not fully integrated.

Second, I personally led the troops in this attack on Huoyi, Jiancheng and Shimin were the deputy generals, Yuanba was my Chinese army escort, Yin Kaishan, Duan Zhixuan, Liu Hongji and others accompanied him, Li Yuanji stayed in Taiyuan and was responsible for logistics and supply, Pei Lin and Wu Shiyan two adults assisted in government affairs, and the rest of the generals performed their duties, trained the soldiers and horses well, strengthened the defense of the Taiyuan Hedong area, and did not slack off. ”

"Yes! Obey the orders of the marshal! The crowd bowed down and obeyed. After the dinner, Li Yuan left Pei Lin alone.

"Master Pei, the two beauties of Zhang Yin are arranged well?!" When Pei Lin heard this, he immediately whispered in Li Yuan's ear, and Li Yuan smiled.

"Hmmm! You arrange it well, and you must keep it secret! ”

"Don't worry, the handsome man is humble, and everything is foolproof. Do you want to find the two of them now, relax your muscles and give you a massage? Li Yuan waved his hand and said:

"No need, there will be military affairs tomorrow, play Fengyue in advance, it is not good for the army, settle them well, and when I triumph, I will officially introduce them to my four sons, and you must keep a good secret beforehand, and you can't reveal the slightest rumor."

"Yes!" The next day, Li Yuan took his three sons and the accompanying generals to the outside of Huoyi City. Song Laosheng had already received a secret report, and before Li Yuan came to Huoyi, he had made a good deployment of troops, the four gates were on guard, and the rolling stones had accumulated a lot, opened the treasury, and organized the strong in the city, Li Yuan came to Huoyi single-handedly under the east gate:

"The people in the city are willing to report, just say that Li Yuan, the Duke of the Tang Kingdom of the Great Sui, wants to see General Huoyi Song!" The defenders in the city were a little overwhelmed when they saw Li Yuan coming single-handedly, and some of them were talking in low voices:

"Look, that's Li Yuan."

"Yes! It turned out to be an old man! ”

"What an old man, I don't think he's old, he's quite heroic."

"What is heroic, you kid, you haven't read a book, don't use it blindly if you don't know how to drag words!"

"You've been reading for a few days, but what about you? You can't go to the imperial examination, and if you can go to the imperial examination, you don't have to be a big soldier here. ”

"What do you say?" As the two soldiers spoke, they were about to quarrel, but when the officer in charge heard these discussions, he immediately stopped them:

"Okay, don't talk about it, watch it all here, I'll go and report to the coach and let him decide." After speaking, he quickly ran down the city tower and ran towards the general's mansion:

"What, Li Yuan was alone in front of the east gate, saying that he wanted to see me!"

"Yes! General, do you want to let him 。。。。。。 with arrows ”

"Bastard!" Before the officer could finish his sentence, he was slapped in the face.

"How do I teach you on a daily basis? On the battlefield, a manly husband has to use a real sword to do it with others, and the conspiracy is not the husband's doing, you know? ”

"General, the villain is just thinking about the general."

"Okay, don't say anything, lead the way." The officer did not dare to say more, so he had to lead the way in front without saying a word. But he was already dissatisfied with Song Laosheng in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it. Song Laosheng came to the front of the city tower:

"Lord Tang Gong Li Yuan, don't come to harm?!"

"Hahaha! Old General Song, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are still so strong, congratulations! ”

"Tang Gong don't talk nonsense, if you have anything to say, please finish it happily, now you and I have long been hostile, and we are no longer colleagues who were together in the court back then, there is no need to be hypocritical here, the court and the emperor are not thin on you, but you have rebelled, I just hope that Tang Gong will be confused and know the opposite, don't be obsessed, and trap yourself in a place of no return."

"Hahaha! The emperor took me to me, I think you have heard about it! It's not that I Li Yuan rebelled against the imperial court, but the imperial court was unkind to me, I bowed to the essence of the emperor, hard work and resentment, when the emperor was there, I Li Yuan guarded the frontier and kept the people safe, when the new emperor ascended the throne, in order to make meritorious contributions, I donated my wealth and famous horses, but what did I get? Today, in the name of digging up the dragon veins, even the graves of my ancestors have been dug up, and their bones have been exposed to the wilderness, and they can be devoured by the vicious dogs of the Nighthawks. Old General Song, now the emperor is trapped in Jiang, and the young lord is being raped in Chang'an, I quickly come to admire the old general's Gao Feng Liangjie, why don't the old general go to Chang'an with me to help the young master, how about Kuang Fu Sheji? When Song Laosheng heard this, he was furious, snatched a bow from a sergeant next to him, put on an arrow, and shot directly at Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanba, who were behind Li Yuan, were shocked:

"Father!" The arrow shot down the hat on Li Yuan's helmet, and Li Yuan was extremely nervous, but he deliberately made a calm look on his face.

"Hahaha! General Song is really a good archeryman, and his majesty has not diminished back then! ”

"Li Yuan, I Song Laosheng don't understand anything, I know that the king wants his ministers to die, the ministers have to die, they are not loyal to death, the father wants the son to die, the son has to die, and the truth of not dying and not being filial. You still don't make a noise here. If you and I used to be colleagues, I won't hurt people with secret arrows. On the battlefield in the coming day, the sword is ruthless, take care. Li Yuan pointed to the city tower with his middle finger:

"Song Laosheng, count you ruthless!" After Li Yuan returned to the camp, he threw his helmet on the command table of the handsome tent.

"Okay, you old Song student, come here, pass on my orders, attack in an all-round way, and you must quickly take Huoyi City." The Tang army launched a fierce attack on Huoyi City under Li Yuan's military order, Huoyi is one of the traffic arteries leading to Chang'an, and it is also a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, plus Song Lao Sheng strengthened the city wall of Huoyi after he came, and stored a large number of defensive equipment, so the Tang army suffered heavy casualties, Li Yuan's father and son looked at the battle situation under the city, and couldn't help but sigh:

"This old general Song is worthy of being a famous general in the world, judging from the defense of this city, this city is probably an iron city, and it is not easy to break through!"

Li Yuanba heard Li Yuan's words of praising Song Laosheng, and looked at this bloody scene, and his murderous intent rose, Li Yuan and others couldn't pull him in time, so he had to let him rush up, only to see that he seemed to be flying like a bird, holding a double hammer, and daring to block in front of him, whether it was the rolling wood and stones dropped by the enemy or the soldiers of his subordinates were smashed open by his sledgehammer, Song Laosheng supervised the battle on the city tower, and the soldiers under him saw Li Yuanba so brave, some of the timid ones were so frightened that they began to retreat, and they were slowly torn open by the Tang army. Song Laosheng pulled out his sword and led his soldiers to block the mouth again, in order to prevent Li Yuanba from borrowing a ladder to climb up, he ordered the hot boiling oil to be poured down the city wall, and even directly ignited the oil and threw it down the ladder. Some of the ladders burned immediately, Li Yuanba couldn't dodge, his body also burned, he fell off the ladder in pain, and was covered by his own soldiers and returned to the back camp. When Song Laosheng saw the Tang army retreating, he also ordered to put away his bow and arrows and strictly defend it. and put on a banquet to celebrate the achievements of his subordinates.
