It turned out that Jiangnan Lu Chang's massive military action alarmed Li Yuan in Guanzhong, and he ordered Li Jiancheng to defeat Xue Rengao as soon as possible, so as to withdraw the army in time and guard against the Jiangnan army.

When the crown prince Li Jiancheng learned that the Jiangnan army was in a big move, and the troops pointed directly at the north bank of the Yellow River, he immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.

Of course, Li Jiancheng understands that when the Jiangnan army defeats the other opponents, the next step will be to the Guanzhong land of their Li family.

Therefore, Li Jiancheng is anxious.

Since the father emperor let him defeat Xue Rengao as soon as possible, it also shows that the situation in Guanzhong is urgent. Then, if the war on my side drags on for a long time, I am afraid that the situation will become more and more unfavorable.

Li Jiancheng is the crown prince, and the Li family's country is also his country, and he is more anxious than anyone else in this regard.

So, Li Jiancheng chose to take the initiative.

The first few battles were indeed very smooth, and the small victory over Xue Rengao's army caused Xue Rengao's army to retreat one after another. Li Jiancheng was carried away by the victory, and the army drove straight in.

This is a bad thing, Li Jiancheng fell for Xue Rengao's tricks, and Li Tang's army was ambushed during the march.

Although Xue Rengao's army was not as effective as Li Tang's army, there were many of them.

Xue Rengao successfully lured Li Jiancheng into the ambush site, and immediately stunned Li Tang's army, and nearly 200,000 troops pressed against Li Tang's army with overwhelming force.

The so-called defeat is a true portrayal of Li Tang's army, and 100,000 Li Tang troops rushed to flee for their lives.

Xue Rengao's army belonged to a rabble, but there was no problem at all in fighting a smooth battle, and the remnants of the army chasing Li Jiancheng were defeated and came to Daxing City.

After Lu Chang introduced the situation, the generals in the hall were lively.

Some said let them fight, and we will clean up the situation in the end.

Some people also said, let's just make a kick, and the army will immediately enter Guanzhong for a melee, anyway, the Jiangnan army is outnumbered.

Cheng Yanjin saw that everyone was arguing and couldn't come to a result, so he came out and asked, "General." Now that Li Jiancheng's army has been defeated and the situation in Guanzhong has made waves again, how will our army act next? ”

Lu Chang smiled: "There is no action, continue to wait." ”

"Why are you waiting?"

"The more chaotic Guanzhong is, the better it is for our army. At this critical time, it is not advisable for our army to send troops to Guanzhong, and inserting a lever will disrupt this chaotic situation, but it will be detrimental to our army. Everyone should know, what is the favorite thing for our army to do? ”

Someone came out and said, "Take advantage of the fire." ”

Lu Chang smiled: "Hehe, almost." Our army likes the benefits of fishermen the most. Let Xue Rengao and Li Tang fight hard, and the more fierce the fight, the better.

When the time came, our army suddenly sent troops to Guanzhong to reap the benefits of the fishermen.

As the so-called praying mantis flutters the cicada yellow finch behind, we will be the last yellow finch. ”

Lu Chang said that to this extent, everyone also understood.

Yes, there is no Jiangnan Army for the time being, so why should I go?

Li Jiancheng was defeated and fled back to Daxing City, with only more than 30,000 people around him.

Li Yuanzhen was angry with Li Jiancheng. This prince is so incompetent, hundreds of thousands of troops brought back a fraction, what can be done?

The army of Daxingcheng was empty, and seeing that Xue Rengao would soon besiege the city, Li Yuan, who was anxious, couldn't care about anything, and ordered the 30,000 troops defending the Jiangnan army in Tongguan to quietly withdraw to 20,000.

This army is not enough, Li Yuan sent someone to Shanxi to report the news, and ordered Li Shimin to lead the army back to rescue at a rapid rate.

I have thought of all the ways I should think of, and Li Yuan has this ability. After arranging these things, Xue Rengao's 200,000 army had already besieged Daxing City.

Xue Rengao's army came slowly. That's because they need to grab food.

This army is not a normal formation at all, it almost belongs to the category of rogues, and wherever you go to grab it, the scourge in the pass is not light.

Li Yuan climbed the tower and looked down. But I was frightened, there were troops everywhere in the city, and it was a bit dangerous to count on the fifty or sixty thousand troops in my hands.

The only hope left now is for Li Shimin to come back to the rescue, otherwise. In less than ten days and a half months, it is certain that Daxing City will be broken.

Li Yuan couldn't understand why he had come to this point in such a short period of time, when he had been going smoothly?

At the beginning, Li Shimin led his troops into the Central Plains, but was wiped out by Lu Chang's Jiangnan army of 50,000 or 60,000. Immediately after Li Yuanji's defeat in Shanxi, he lost 50,000 or 60,000 troops, adding up to more than 100,000.

Well, after conscription, Li Shimin went to Shanxi and took another 50,000 troops.

Coupled with Li Jiancheng's more than 100,000 troops and the army here in Daxing City, Li Tang has more than 300,000 troops, which is quite a lot.

It's good now, only this little army is left, and it is still besieged by Xue Rengao in Daxing City.

The people of Guanzhong are unlucky, how can they withstand such a scourge as the Li family. 300,000 troops, that's 300,000 men, it's gone, how many light and strong people in Guanzhong make the Li family so scourge, probably there are people in the city who are very dissatisfied with the Li family's father and son.

At the beginning, he supported them Li Tang because he felt that the Li family's father and son could achieve great things. Now it seems that it is just that, the Li family father and son are all waste.

You must know that the Guanzhong Gate Valve also needs to pay for the money and people to support Li Tang, but now that the Li family has been defeated, all the previous investment has been in vain, isn't this a bamboo basket for water?

Everyone knows that this transaction has been lost, so it's no wonder that the gate valve in the middle of the gate can be happy?

Li Yuan also knew that the gate valve was dissatisfied with them, but at this juncture, he definitely couldn't take care of this. What is the matter, Li Yuan ordered the city to go to the city to assist the army in defense.

As for whether they want to or not, well, that's not up to them.

The messenger sent by Li Yuan arrived at Li Shimin, but when Li Shimin heard that he was asking him to withdraw his troops and go back to save Daxing City, his face was gloomy and terrifying.

Li Shimin knew that Li Yuan no longer had a good impression of him, and he sent him far away to Shanxi just to be out of sight and out of mind, and Li Shimin's heart was already cold.

Li Tang's future is Li Jiancheng, and it has nothing to do with him Li Shimin.

This time Li Shimin came to Shanxi, and he made up his mind that he wanted to open up a piece of land by himself.

Now the opportunity is rare, and the Jiangnan Army is pressuring, allowing Liu Wuzhou to withdraw half of his strength to prevent the Jiangnan Army.

If Li Shimin does not grasp this opportunity, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve his wish after missing today.

Therefore, Li Shimin did not want to withdraw troops to rescue Guanzhong at all.

Besides, now Li Shimin's heart has changed greatly, and he is ruthless and ruthless.

Li Shimin gritted his teeth, and took advantage of the absence of his brother Li Yuanba to swing his sword and behead the person who delivered the letter.

The person died, but the matter did not happen, and Li Shimin cheered up and continued to fight against Liu Wuzhou. (To be continued.) )
