Chapter 81: Pei Renji arrives in Luoyang
In Tongguan, after Li Shimin received the news of the battle between Luoyang's Sui army and Li Mi's Wei army, he sneered, these two people are Li Tang's future enemies, at this time they themselves killed each other, there is really no better thing than this, this just gave them time to solve Pei Ju's Sui army in the north, this Sui army does not solve, it always makes them feel like they are stuck in their throats, and they don't vomit or feel unhappy.

And Pei Ju is also waiting at this time, he is waiting for the beginning of the next year, at this time, the northern grasslands are covered with heavy snow, and there is continuous snow everywhere at the foot of Yin Mountain, and the snow in some places is even more than a zhang deep, if people accidentally step on it, they may even be buried in it and can't get out, not to mention livestock and material vehicles.
And the Tang army did not attack them this winter, which allowed Pei Ju to prepare his own plan with peace of mind, and the problem that bothered him the most now was the problem of food, if the food was not solved, the movement of the army would be blocked everywhere.
In Luoyang, the reinforcements sent by the Jiangdu court finally arrived, and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty sent Pei Renji, who also brought 30,000 Sui troops.
Yue Wang Yang Tong saw Pei Renji's arrival, his heart was naturally very happy, they and Jiang Du had not been in touch for a long time, and at this time Pei Renji's arrival not only alleviated the crisis in Luoyang City, but also made Yue Wang Yang Tong's heart feel a lot more relieved, he was just a half-old child, and the responsibility of defending the land of a city was on his shoulders, which made him feel breathless.
"General Pei, how is my father's health? When will he come back to Luoyang! ”
Emperor Yang of Sui went to Jiangdu before, claiming to be on a southern tour, but everyone can understand that he actually wants to avoid the disadvantage of being caught between the two armies of Li Tang in the west and Li Mi in the east, in fact, he went to the south to take refuge, not to parade, but Yang Tong, the king of Yue, is still young, and the ministers around him dare not tell him the truth privately, so he doesn't know the specific situation, and has always thought that his father is just going to the south to tour, and will soon lead the army back to Luoyang.
"My father handed over the two armies of Zhichong and Guoyi to me, but I didn't have the ability to take them well, so I disappointed my father, I really want my father to come back immediately, I can't handle the affairs of Luoyang City alone!"
The tears in Yang Tong's eyes were about to overflow, he began to garrison Luoyang when Emperor Yang of Sui conquered Goguryeo, during this period not only to deal with the big and small affairs in Luoyang City, including government affairs and military, but also faced the siege of Yang Xuangan's army, if it wasn't for someone to help him come up with ideas, I was afraid that Luoyang City would have been lost long ago, I originally thought that after my father returned from Liaodong, he would take back the rights in his hands and restore the original order of Luoyang City, but unexpectedly after experiencing a battle of Tongguan and a Turkic invasion in the north, Yang Guang also chose to take refuge in the southern tour, and left him alone in Luoyang City, and after half a year, now he feels that the situation in Luoyang City is precarious, and there is no one around him to trust, except for a Wang Shichong, he almost doesn't know who to believe, and even if it is this Wang Shichong, he feels that he has a lot of things to hide from himself, but he doesn't dare to talk nonsense when there is no evidence.
Yang Tong still trusts Pei Renji sent by Yang Guang very much, he knows that he was recruited by his father to escort him, and arrived in Jiangdu with the army to protect his father's safety, which shows that his father trusts him, so he also trusts Pei Renji very much, and opens his heart to him at this time.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty did not mention to the last general his plan to return to Luoyang, so the last general could not answer this matter, but His Majesty has praised His Highness many times, saying that His Highness's performance in Luoyang City is very good, and he appreciates it very much!"
Pei Renji sighed in his heart, Emperor Yang of Sui ran to Jiangzhou by himself, leaving a Yang Yu in Chang'an and a Yang Tong in Luoyang, at this time Chang'an has been lost, Yang Yu fled to Bashu, there is no news at this time, I don't know if he was affected in the process of Xiao Miao's army, if not, he should have been in Chen Ling's army at this time, but so far there is no news, it is estimated that something must have happened on the road.
And the situation on Yang Tong's side is not optimistic, after the Sui army has experienced several defeats, there are not many troops left at this time, and Pei Renji also learned that Yang Tong handed over almost all of his troops to Wang Shichong, this Wang Shichong He has dealt with, this person is cunning, people do not know the details, but he has always been very ambitious, so it is a wise choice to hand over so many troops, but also elite troops like Zhichong and Guo Yi to him, Pei Renji is not sure, However, Li Mi's troops are numerous, and it is not a good idea to fight with them in the field, if he leads the troops, he only needs to hold the Yanshi on the edge of Luoyang City, and hold the key road of Luoshui, so that the Wei army can not easily cross Luoshui, then it is enough to deal with the Wei army, the Wei army is not the Sui army, they are poorly equipped and lack the ability to attack the fortifications, so even if they want to attack the Yanshi, it will pay a lot of price, and the Yanshi is still far away from Luoyang, The war ahead will not have a direct impact on Luoyang, which is also conducive to stabilizing the hearts of the people in Luoyang City, so as not to panic among the people, at this time most of the people in the Central Plains are concentrated in the Luoyang area, and most of the rest have fled to the south, although the Wei army has the grain in the two important granaries of Luocang and Luokoucang, but sooner or later these grains will run out, and the Wei army lacks a foundation, there is Dou Jiande in the north, and there is a threat from Du Fuwei and the imperial army in the south, they must fight urgently, and the more they delay, the more unfavorable it will be, If he leads the troops, put 50,000 troops in the Yan Division, and then advance the remaining army to the west, attack Hedong, open up the ferry on the Yellow River, and take over the Pei Ju troops trapped in the north of Guanlong, so that the military strength of Luoyang City will be greatly enhanced, and the strength will be doubled, and even in the face of the siege of Li Mi and Li Tang's army, they will have the power to resist, not as passive as now, this is still when only facing Li Mi's side to attack, Wang Shichong used up the Sui army, If Li Tang's army also killed, how could the Sui army resist? Didn't Luoyang City become an empty city in front of the Tang Army?
Wang Shichong has been fighting for many years, will he not know these problems? Pei Renji obviously doesn't think so, there must be something strange in this! (To be continued.) )
