When Dou Jiande's army arrived outside Youzhou City, Zhuo County, Su You just happened to receive Luo Yi's letter.

What Su You read came from twenty days ago, Luo Yi didn't have any intention of asking for help in his heart, but Su You couldn't sit idly by.

For the 100,000 combined forces of Dou Jiande and Wei Dao'er, Luo Yi probably thought of the consequences, but he did not have no support, that is, the 2,000 heavy cavalry in his hands.

Youzhou's 2,000 heavy cavalry has been trained for many years, the war horse is the strongest Turkic horse, the cavalry is tall, brave and strong, and more importantly, the 2,000 cavalry are all horses.

This is the only heavy armored cavalry of the Great Sui, originally with 5,000 people, built by Yang Guang with the strength of the country, and was originally intended to be used to deal with Goryeo; However, these heavy cavalry did not play well in the mountains of Goryeo, and Xue Shixiong lost 3,000 men and horses after leading them into battle, so this cavalry fell into the hands of Luo Yi.

Luo Yi has reason to believe that there is no problem in using his two thousand heavy horsemen to treat 20,000 foot soldiers with the same equipment.

Of course, Su You also knew the combat effectiveness of the heavy cavalry, in fact, it took him seven or eight years and countless financial resources to build two thousand heavy cavalry.

If you can use these two thousand heavy horses for your own use

After Su You put down the letter, he immediately ordered someone to summon Yanbei, Ji Ziheng, Wang Bodang, Zhang Junli and others, intending to discuss Li Jing's plan to recruit Luo Yi, but the embarrassing thing was that the information twenty days ago was too old.

Su You was not sure what the situation in Youzhou was now, and he did not know whether the combined forces of Dou Jiande and Wei Dao'er had been repulsed, or if Luo Yi had been conquered.

What exactly is the reason for the battle, and what is the goal of the outcome of the battle, these two questions make the second monk scratch his head.

There is also an unclear advantage that the purpose is not clear, that is, they can go to the mouth of the Haihe River first, and the follow-up plan can wait until the news is inquired before starting.

The Haihe River belongs to the lower reaches of the Sanggan River, and the Sanggan River flows through Zhuo County, and Su You's fleet can directly reach the city of Youzhou; The Haihe River also belongs to the lower reaches of Tuoshui, and Dou Jiande's Wang Du Le Shou is on the bank of Tuoshui.

If Youzhou is being besieged, Su You can choose to besiege Wei and save Zhao to attack Leshou, or he can directly kill under Youzhou City and fight the coalition forces of Dou Jiande and Wei Dao'er.

In addition, Suyou can also enter the Yongji Canal from Tuoshui or Sanggan River, and then go north or south.

In this way, Su You seems to have grasped the initiative in this battle all of a sudden, provided that Youzhou has not been taken by Dou Jiande and Wei Dao'er now.

When Su You and his subordinates discussed the strategy of rescuing Youzhou, they did not avoid Pei Shiju, and after the latter learned of Su You's simple plan, he nodded and praised.

In any case, Su You's fleet could run rampant inland, which ensured that he could be invincible.

As for who to lead on the expedition this time, Su You did not hesitate to order Wang Bodang and Zhao Hu, who each led three thousand light cavalry and one thousand heavy cavalry; Of course, the artillery team is also a type of troops that must be bringed, and Su You directly brought 500 artillery pieces this time.

The team that was born to defend Sanshan City included 3,000 light cavalry of Jiao Ziheng, 2,000 foot soldiers of Zhang Junli and others who surrendered last month, and 500 artillery pieces.

The Seven Seas Trading Company has reopened the route to Goryeo, Silla, Baekje, Wa and other places, and they are also collecting information on these small countries, and they have not found that these countries have more than 20 ships or more teams, so Su You does not think that there is anything wrong with leaving these more than 6,000 people to defend Samsan.

The only problem is that the intelligence work in the Central Plains needs to be strengthened urgently, and perhaps it is time to use the Flying Pigeon Messenger.

When Su You was depressed about intelligence work, he immediately received information from Jiangdu.

- "Yu Wenhua and Sima Dekan and others carried out military admonitions against Yang Guang, Yang Guang was killed, and many courtiers such as Laihu'er and their families were killed; After the war, because of the uneven distribution of interests, Sima Dekan expressed dissatisfaction with Yu Wenhua, and there was a second war, and he was killed after the failure"

When Su You took this information, he was stunned for a moment, and his face became extremely ugly.

In Su You's impression, Yang Guang was the emperor for a total of 18 years, and he did not die in Jiangdu until March of the 18th year of Daye; It's only been seventeen years since the great cause, how can he do it

Su You didn't pay too much attention to Yang Guang's life and death, the problem was that Laihu'er's family was killed!

Could it be that Yu Wenhua is ready to bear his own wrath?

"Heng Nan, what's wrong?" Lai Yanbei looked at Su You's face and asked with concern.

"Yu Wenhua and Sima Dekan and other Guanlong nobles launched a military admonition to Your Majesty, Your Majesty was killed, and your father-in-law was also" Su You did not finish speaking, and everyone in the audience was shocked and did not say a word.

Among them, the most shocked were Lai Yanbei and Pei Shiju, because they both knew what it meant.

Su You's word "also" has already explained everything; When Su You handed the information to Lai Yanbei, she fainted after just one look, but fortunately Su You held her in his arms in time.

Pei Shiju also knew that Yang Guang's death meant that the Great Sui would die from now on, so where should he go?

As if knowing what Pei Shiju was thinking, Su You immediately said to him sincerely, "Your Majesty was killed, and the Great Sui has lost hope and exists in name only; It just so happens that I have long planned to establish Cloud China, and now I solemnly invite Pei Gong to be the prime minister of Cloud China, and I also ask Pei Gong to deign. ”

Hearing that Yang Guang died, Su You couldn't wait to throw out the plan to build the country, which was a big suspicion of falling into the ground, but Pei Shiju didn't feel strange at all.

"Well, may I think about it for a few days? Now I have a request, I want to set off with you to rescue Youzhou."

Fu Ziheng and the others asked a little unwillingly, "Do you still want to rescue Youzhou?" ”

If you don't go to rescue Youzhou, do you want to go to Jiangdu Zaoyu Culture and avenge Laihu'er?

Su You is obviously not ready to go to Jiangdu, Jiangdu is too chaotic now; Yu Wenhua is not a tree, can he stay in Jiangdu all the time waiting for you to kill?

Besides, Laihu'er's family is now dead, even if he rushes to Jiangdu at this time, can he still be brought back to life? Instead of this, it is better to rescue Li Jing, whose life and death are uncertain!

Of course, Su You couldn't say these words to them, after all, their concept was that "the dead are great, and revenge is the most important." ”

After thinking for a while, Su You immediately ordered, "Send a message to Li Mifeige, let him temporarily give up the siege of the Eastern Capital, and lead the Wagang Army to intercept Yu Wenhua; Our plan remains the same, head to Youzhou! ”

"Li Mi? Why should Li Mi listen to you? Pei Shiju listened to Su You's words, and immediately asked with some puzzlement.

Su You smiled, and Uncle Wang immediately explained, "Zhai Rang, the big boss of Wagang, was originally named Xu Xingzhi, and he was originally a wanted criminal rescued by Mr.; Li Xuandi was the same, he followed Yang Xuangan to hide after the failure of the uprising, and finally went to Nanzhong City to become the military advisor of the gentleman"

"I see." Pei Shiju suddenly realized how deeply Su You was hiding, and finally understood why Zhai Rang and Li Mi had not clashed, but he still didn't dare to believe that Li Mi would obey Su You's orders now.

The Li Mi in Su You's heart, isn't it just like Su You in Yang Guang's mind?

Yang Guang was worried that Su You would lose face by refusing to accept his orders, so he sent Pei Shiju to Sanshan, what about Su You?

Su You also had his own concerns, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I now announce the official establishment of Cloud China and issue an order to Li Mi in the name of the king; As for the celebration of the founding of the country, I think it can be put after we come back from Youzhou! ”

Because of the information that Yang Guang was killed, Su You had to determine the route to Youzhou, which was also to save time; Of course, Su You put Zhang Junli's 2,000 people into the sequence of this march into Youzhou.

One order after another was issued, and Lai Yanbei, who had been in a coma for a while, finally woke up, and he had no objection to Su You's plan.

After the people were ordered to leave, they began to gather their soldiers and drive their horses to the ship, and as for food, grass and cannonballs, they were always on standby.

In just one afternoon, all the nearly 6,000 horses were driven onto the warship, and 3,000 Wang Bodang's army, 1,000 heavy cavalry, 1,500 artillerymen, and 2,000 Liaoxi troops, a total of 7,500 men, began to board one after another.

Another 3,000 auxiliaries have also been assembled, and the logistics troops and Su You's escorts have also boarded the ship.

With some exceptions from the last time, this time Su You brought Lai Yanbei and Pei Shiju with him, and as for the people sitting in Sanshan, there were only 3,000 light cavalry and 1,500 artillery left

That night, Su You's fleet headed for the mouth of the Haihe River at full speed, and it would only take two and a half days to reach the Haihe River, but it would take four days to reach Youzhou.

On March 26, Li Tang's army invaded Jiangxian County, and Chen Shuda led his troops to tie up and plead guilty; Li Yuan let them go, didn't ask for guilt, and still treated them like colleagues in the past.

On March 28, Li Yuan led his army into Longmen County and officially stepped into the boundary of Hedong County.

Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Xuanba led the four-way army to surround the four gates of Hedong, besieged Hedong City, and then ordered a fierce attack on Hedong.

Qu Tutong didn't dare to go out of the city to attack, but he had tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and he was cowering in the tall Hedong City of the city to defend himself, but he was also at ease.

Li Shimin's troops took the lead in launching an attack on Hedong City, but apart from losing the lives of hundreds of athletes in vain under the tall walls of Hedong City, there was no other result.

Subsequently, Li Jiancheng's troops, Li Xuanba's troops, and Li Yuan's troops all launched tentative attacks on Hedong City, and the results were the same as Li Shimin's troops.

In desperation, Li Yuan had no choice but to set up a camp on the bank of the Yellow River and form a confrontation with Hedong City.
