"Gong Pei, do you mean that Li Yuan wants to persuade us to surrender?"

Li Jing looked a little surprised, "This Li Yuan's appetite is inevitably too big, they are only a miscellaneous army of only 100,000 people, although we only have 80,000 people, but we are a regular army, not only well-equipped, but also well-trained, plus we still have the secret weapon given to us by Langya Pavilion in our hands, it can be said that it is unparalleled in the world, they actually want to recruit us!" ”

Compared with Li Jing's stunned surprise, Pei Ju seemed much calmer, for Li Yuan, although he occupies Guanlong at the moment, but these things are just provided to him by the nobles of Guanlong, the good thing is sponsorship and support, and the bad thing is lent to him, since this is loaned, then it will naturally have to be repaid in the future, so he must expand his strength and territory as soon as possible, not just limited to one Guanlong, only when he controls enough places, and his strength is strong enough, He was able to get rid of the influence of the Guanlong nobles on him, and before him, Emperor Yang of Sui had been doing such things, but he did not necessarily achieve anything.

"This is not surprising, Li Yuan's army is mainly the foundation of Taiyuan, you don't see that he now has more than 100,000 people in his hands, but among them, the troops that can fight and fight tough battles are all in the hands of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, Li Shimin, I have seen this person, young talent, with a world, bold and good at making friends, very decisive in doing things, never dragging mud and water, the future is unlimited, but Li Yuan set up his eldest son Li Jiancheng as the prince, and this formed a situation where the Tang army is strong outside and weak inside, and the number of troops in Li Shimin's hands is more than half, And the combat effectiveness is strong, although he is not the prince, but he has the ability to change everything, and although Li Jiancheng was made the prince, Li Yuan obviously didn't trust him very much, and didn't give him too many troops, which is tantamount to burying an unstable factor for himself, which may break out at any time. ”

"What does Pei Gong mean is that Li Yuan's purpose in wanting to surrender us is to hand over the army in our hands to the crown prince Li Jiancheng and eliminate this unstable factor for him?"

Pei Ju smiled and said: "What General Li said is true, but if this is really the case, the general yourself may be involved in this dispute, Li Shimin leads the troops well, and there are unparalleled fierce generals like Li Yuanba under him to attack the city for him, so if it is simply to give an army to Li Jiancheng, it is not enough, although the prince is very close to Chai Shao, but Chai Shao is not ambitious, ambitious and talented, and he is not of great use, and he cannot be the commander of the three armies, but you have this qualification, You are the chosen one that the Pavilion Masters of Langya Pavilion have taken a fancy to, and it is impossible for Li Yuan not to blush. ”

Pei Ju continued: "But I don't want you to be involved in this dispute, Li Shimin is too strong, Li Jiancheng has a weak personality, in the future, Li Shimin will definitely be strong and Li Jiancheng will be weak, even if you join Li Jiancheng's command, it will be difficult to change anything." ”

Li Jing hurriedly said: "Pei Gong is too worried, Li Jing will definitely follow Pei Gong's side to the death, and will never defect to Li Tang and abandon Pei Gong for the glory and wealth." ”

Pei Ju's eyes lit up, he looked at Li Jing with sharp eyes, and asked, "Then what if I want to surrender to Li Tang?" What are you going to do? ”

In Licheng, Shandong, because Zhang Xutuo was killed by Li Mi with a strategy, Luo Shixin, who took Jindi, could only lead the army to abandon Jindi and return to Shandong, and at this time, Qin Shubao had rescued the Sui army general Gongsun Shangzhe from Yancheng, and the more than 3,000 soldiers under him.

The situation in Shandong can be described as treacherous, and all forces have the intention of getting involved in Shandong, among which Dou Jiande, who occupies Hebei, and Li Mi, who occupies the Central Plains, pose the greatest threat to them.

At this time, the Sui army in the world was roughly divided into five parts, one was the Pei Ju army of the lonely Guanlong, this Sui army was well-equipped, and the main soldiers were soldiers from the Central Plains and Shandong, who had participated in the battle of Liaodong and had strong combat effectiveness.

The second is the Shandong Sui army that was also divided and surrounded, this army was originally Zhang Xutuo's subordinates, Zhang Xutuo's Sui army has a total of more than 50,000 people, but among them, the main combat force is only more than 30,000 people, after Zhang Xutuo died in battle, his subordinates still have more than 30,000 people who were collected by the deputy general Qin Shubao, and now this Sui army is the weakest of the Sui army among all parties.

The third is the Sui army trapped in Luoyang, the main commander of this Sui army is Wang Shichong, who has a Jianghuai army of 30,000 people and a forbidden army of 50,000, and the number of defenders in Luoyang is close to 100,000, and the force is very strong.

The fourth is Chen Ling, who occupied Jiangxia, Chen Ling originally had 20,000 troops in his hands, these are the elite soldiers and generals that Emperor Yang of Sui hoarded in Yangzhou, plus he went all the way from Yangzhou to the west, and collected and expanded a lot of troops along the way, and when he arrived in Jianghan Prefecture, the number of troops in his hands had exceeded 50,000, and at this time it was the fourth most powerful force in the Sui army of the five routes.

And the last Sui army is also the most powerful Sui army, that is, Yang Guang's own central army, the number of this army is more than 150,000, the main generals are Yuwen Shu, Pei Renji and Yuwen Chengdu, they are stationed in Yangzhou, with the material and tax support of the vast places in the south of the Yangtze River, and occupy Dayi, is the strongest force in the world.

Shandong's Sui army is the smallest and weakest, so it has been coveted by many parties, whether it is Li Mi's Wei army, or Dou Jiande's Xia army, they all want to annex them, and then expand their strength to Shandong, although Shandong has suffered a natural disaster, the population has decreased sharply, but after all, it is a large territory, no one wants to give up easily, and in this way, Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin are not in a good situation.

"Cousin, I think we just go south to kill it, so wasn't Du Fuwei's army defeated by the imperial army? Our 30,000 horses swept over with lightning speed, they will definitely not be able to resist, and we will definitely be able to arrive in Yangzhou smoothly and join the imperial army! ”

The life of the person who spoke had clear eyebrows, eyes like stars, lips like Danzhu, face like powder, a golden crown on his head, a red embroidered gold dragon robe, a gold belt around his waist, tiger head boots, a cold bright silver armor, and the Five Tiger Soul Breaking Gun in his hand, which looked majestic and brilliant.

This person is not a woman but is better than a woman, with an extremely handsome face, and is known as Luo Cheng, the second son of Luo Yi, the king of Yan in Beiping.

And the person shouted by Luo Cheng was Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao, his cousin, Luo Yi fled from Youzhou to Shandong by boat not long ago, and at this time it seemed that he was going to escape again. (To be continued.) )
