After comforting Zhai Rang, Lu Zhongsu immediately explained to the more than ten black-clothed guards behind him, "Whether Yang Shanhui lives or dies depends on your performance, I believe you will not disappoint me." ”

The more than ten guards behind Lu Zhongsu were the Nanzhong people who arrived at Wagangzhai with Li Mi and Lu Sheng that day; Their stature was not high, but their cold gaze showed a faint murderous aura, if Yang Shan would notice them, they might not be easy to enter.

"Bow and arrow, prepare!"

Yang Shanhui was greeted by a rain of arrows, but this was just an appetizer, and when they rushed close to Zhai Rang's battle array, they were greeted by more than ten fist-sized iron balls

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

Yang Shanhui had just dodged the attack of the iron ball when he heard explosions one after another ringing around him.

Previously, Yang Shanhui had heard the legend of Li Mi killing Zhang Xutuo more than once, but when he was really there, he couldn't help but be stunned, and wanted to control the mount under his crotch to retreat.

It's a pity that Yang Shanhui's war horses were also stupid, and they had already stood up after the explosion, but Lu Zhongsu's more than ten guards didn't have more than one hand/grenade in their hands, they threw out a round and then threw more than twenty more than 20 of them at Yang Shanhui's location.

The sound of explosions one after another not only instantly blew Yang Shanhui and his men and horses into pieces, but also frightened the two thousand elite horsemen led by Yang Shanhui, and then turned their horses and retreated

Yang Shanhui, like Zhang Xutuo, won a hundred battles on the battlefield of cold weapons, but in the end, he was planted under dozens of small hands/thunders.

As early as when Yang Shanhui shot Li Mi off his horse, the Wagang army had already scattered and fled, and the Jiangdu army and Yang Shanhui's army began to reap the fruits of victory, but Yang Shanhui's death became a major turning point.

It's all flesh and blood, who dares to face the hand/thunder?

After hearing the earth-shattering explosion, Yu Wenhua decisively ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

After Li Mi was seriously injured, Zhai Rang temporarily took over his command; Then the 30,000 fresh forces led by Pei Yuanqing, Shan Xiongxin, and Cheng Yanjin finally joined the battlefield with Shengwei, and drove Yu Wenhua and the coalition army of Yang Shanhui back to the east bank of Yongji Canal in one go.

In this battle, the Wagang army suffered heavy losses, not only Li Mi was seriously injured, but also beat nearly 300,000 Wagang troops to less than 100,000 people; -- More than half of the casualties were killed and wounded in the battle with Yu Wenhua and Yang Shanhui, and the other half chose to flee from the battlefield and left Wagang.

On the side of Yu Wenhua and the coalition forces with Yang Shanhui, Yang Shanhui was directly killed, and more than 100,000 coalition troops were killed or wounded; It is worth mentioning that Chen Zhiluo, Fan Wenchao, Zhang Tonger and other 30,000 troops who stayed behind and broke off actually defected to the Wagang Army at the last moment.

Because of the death of Yang Shanhui, the soldiers under his command were naturally attached to Yu Wenhua; Despite this, Yu Wenhua's troops after leaving the battlefield were only more than 20,000 people, and counting the 30,000 people who stayed in the camp, his strength was only 50,000.

On the night of returning to the camp, Yu Wenhua said a very general-like sentence to the civil and military officials, "Don't be ashamed to go!" ”

The meaning of this is "I won't be shy about running away", and the allusion comes from Cao Mengde's words after the defeat of the Chibi army, so he is very "general".

Faced with the current predicament, Yu Wenhua and the civil and military officials who led the 50,000 army and the new court of Jiangdu decisively left the territory of Wagang and entered Ji County and Dong County.

In order to collect food, Yu Wenhua's army began to transform into a mob, and began to extort the people of these two counties, and forced the clans to hand over the grain.

Dongjun Tongshou Wang Rail sent Xu Jingzhong to surrender to the Wagang army, and Yu Wenhua immediately led the army to withdraw from Ji County and went north to Wei County after learning the news.

At this time, the news of Wang Shichong's mutiny in the eastern capital reached Wagangzhai, and Zhai Rang and Li Mi and others, who originally planned to enter Wagang, had to besiege the eastern capital again, repeating what they had done a few months ago, just like Yu Wenhua had never appeared.

When Li Mi, who was seriously injured, saw Lu Zhongsu, he couldn't help but knock on the side and say, "If the grenade in Lu Gong's hand had been taken out earlier, we would have already entered the Eastern Capital, how could there be today's battle?" ”

The hand/Lei held in Lu Zhongsu's hand was obviously to deal with Yang Shanhui, and of course there was also a desire to prevent Li Mi.

If Li Mi didn't take Zhai Rang Lu Zhongsu and these old people in his eyes because he was too inflated, it was likely that these hands/thunders would be thrown at Li Mi.

After thinking for a while, Lu Zhongsu said with a wry smile, "Compared to entering the Eastern Capital, it is more realistic to save your life." ”

Li Mi didn't say anything more, and later talked with Zhai Rang and others about the plan to surrender Su You.

At the same time, Su You's fleet had crossed Tuoshui along the canal to the south, and it was less than a hundred miles away from Leshou, the capital of the Xia Kingdom.

Previously, before Su You arrived, the vanguard took Hejian County.

For the towns by the river, there is really no suspense that Su You's troops want to enter the city, who in this world can not be afraid of artillery attacks?

Even in a town far away from the river, Su You was not worried, because the guns on the ship could be moved by horses; In addition, you can also directly use your hand/thunder to forcibly blast open the city gate, and then blast in.

For conquering cities, if you don't see it with your own eyes, no one will believe that there is such a domineering way in this world; The only regret is that the consumption of attacking the city with thermal weapons is a bit large, but this is within the range that Su You can tolerate.

The greater the difference in weapons between the two sides, the easier it is to terrify the enemy, and the gap will easily lead to surrender, thus avoiding unnecessary fighting

Su You's current goal is Le Shou, as long as he wins Le Shou, it means that the Xia Kingdom will be destroyed, and if he wants to close other realms, it's not a matter of words?

There is never any bad news about the crusade against Dou Jiande, but the part about Li Yuan is not so happy.

Judging from the news, Li Yuan has now entered Tongguan and is about to attack Chang'an City.

Su You knew that this news was a few days ago, maybe now Li Yuan had entered Chang'an, but he didn't know if he would support a little emperor in a vain manner, or would he choose to be the king without any restraint like himself?

According to the original plan, Su You originally planned to return to Sanshan to establish a country and be crowned king after rescuing Luo Yi, but unexpectedly Luo Yi's heavy cavalry lost most of it, so he abandoned himself and took refuge in himself

Because he was worried that Dou Jiande would not be able to fight if he was well prepared for defense, Su You struck while the iron was hot to recover Hebei, and the facts also proved that Su You's idea was very good, and none of the large and small towns of the Xia Kingdom captured along the way encountered too large-scale resistance.

If you have to use any lofty adjectives, it can probably be said that you are not a bloody soldier, right?

Su You was thinking nonsense when he suddenly heard the footsteps of Yanbei, he raised his head and nodded to the latter, but did not speak.

Lai Yanbei opened his mouth and said, "Husband, Liu Wuzhou sent someone to visit. ”

Su You asked with a smile, "Won't it be Wei Chigong?" Unexpectedly, Wei Chigong actually followed him, but fortunately, Wang Junkuo has always been inseparable from the Turks, otherwise his strength would be a little terrifying."

The Wang Junkuo in Su You's mouth is Wang Xuan, who he rescued with the Thirteen Taibao that day, and he was Liu Wuzhou's subordinate before, because Liu Wuzhou had to break him away because of his collusion with the Turks, so he became the guard of Yanmen, and finally went to Youzhou with Li Jing.

Facing an old acquaintance and learning that he had two brushes, Su Youdang entrusted him with an important task and asked him to go directly to Liaodong to train troops and raise horses.

What Su You wants to vigorously develop now is the horse farm, after all, there is no specific horse breeding base in Yun China now, and if he fights with the Turks, Kumoxi, Khitans and other steppe tribes in the future, it will not work without horses

As for the training of cavalry, it seems that there is no need, as long as you can ride a horse, as long as you can ride on horseback and throw hands/mines, Su You actually doesn't have much requirement for cavalry.

When Su You was opening his mind, Lai Yanbei said with a smile, "It's true that Wei Chigong can follow him, but it's not impossible to win over, but it's a little difficult to win over the one who came today." ”

"Liu Wuzhou's brother-in-law Yuan Junzhang?" Su You smiled and asked rhetorically.

"What do you think he's here for?" Lai Yanbei nodded noncommittally and asked.

Su You immediately analyzed, "Li Yuan has entered the customs a few days ago, and now it is a sure thing to take Chang'an; What he had to do next was to eliminate Xue Ju and Li Liang to expand his territory in Hanzhong, and he would also attack Liu Wuzhou at the same time. On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore? ”

Lai Yanbei sighed, "If I were Li Yuan, I would also solve Liu Wuzhou as soon as possible, after all, Taiyuan is Li Yuan's land of Longxing." Although Liu Wuzhou has three counties, Mayi, Yanmen and Loufu, it is located in the border and does not occupy an advantageous area. If he doesn't strike first, when Li Yuan comes to clean him up, I'm afraid he won't be able to fight back. ”

Su You nodded, "Madame has analyzed well, so Liu Wuzhou is here to ask for support?" It's a pity that he and Li Yuan are both Turkic lackeys, and the Turks seem to be more optimistic about Li Yuan now. ”

"What do you mean? Do you want to meet this Junzhang? Lai Yanbei asked with a smile.

"See, why not? We have already had a plan for Taiyuan, but if Liu Wuzhou is willing to do it for us, wouldn't it be easier for us? Give him some obsolete armor and weapons, and then he and Li Yuan will fight to the death. We would rather let Liu Wuzhou be in power than let Li Yuan claim to be the king alone. ”

Lai Yanbei naturally had no objection to Su You's statement, and immediately said, "Then I'll order someone to pass him over?" ”

Su You nodded, but what he was thinking about was how to squeeze Yuan Junzhang, who came with a request.
