"Uncle, what Li Xin said is true?" Wang Xingben asked with some hesitation.

"Li Xin won't lie to us in this regard, otherwise how could his woman and his son easily escape?" Wang Shichong laughed hesitantly and said, "His son may have left, but his woman will definitely not be able to escape from the palace." ”

"Uncle, what do you mean?" Wang Xingben was extremely shocked in his heart.

"Liu Liangdi is his woman, this kind of thing is no secret in the harem, Li Xin's widowhood disease, tsk, it's really interesting, and it's really about him who braves the world's disapproval. Even I admire him. Wang Shichong's voice was very flat, but Wang Xingben's face was gloomy, his eyes were full of jealousy, Liu Liangdi's demeanor was outstanding, who in Luoyang City didn't know her beauty, but she didn't expect her to have a leg with Li Xin.

"Don't talk about this matter, the most important thing for us at the moment is, how to solve this matter, Li Xin is right, Li Yuan will come to attack me, and even I guessed that there is already a part of the city that has joined forces with Li Yuan. Right now, the first thing we have to beat is Li Mi. Wang Shichong stood up and said to Wang Xingben: "Go, select the elite in the army, prepare to deal with Li Mi, if we don't kill Li Mi, we will not be able to ascend the throne, and even Li Mi will unite with Li Yuan, only by defeating Li Mi and seizing his power, we will have enough power to protect our Luoyang." ”

Wang Shichong is still very decisive, after getting the news from Li Xin, he immediately decided to take action against Li Mi, and before Li Mi could react, he would act on Li Mi, and when Li Yuan had not yet made a move, he would first destroy Li Mi and weaken the reinforcements that might be Li Yuan.

In the afternoon of the same day, Duan Da, Yun Dingxing and others sent a letter to the Emperor Taizhu, asking the Emperor Taizhu to canonize Li Mi as a Taiwei and Shang Shuling, and ordered Li Mi to return to the court. Lu Chu and the others also needed to balance Wang Shichong before Li Yuan arrived in Luoyang. also followed closely behind, allowing Li Mi to return to the army.

In the post house, when Ma Zhou learned that the emperor was preparing to summon Li Mi to return to the court, he also sighed at Wang Shichong's methods, he knew that Wang Shichong was ready to do something to Li Mi.

"Let's go, let's go to Shaolin Temple." Ma Zhou thought for a while and said to the Jinyi Wei beside him: "In Shaolin Temple, we still have an important thing to do. ”

"Yes." The Jinyi guard beside him whispered, "Shouldn't I tell Wang Shichong?" ”

"Do you think Wang Shichong doesn't know about Liu Liangdi? If he didn't know, he wouldn't have asked us for the end. Ma Zhou shook his head and said, "There are very few things that can be hidden from Wang Shichong in Luoyang. Whether it is Li Mi or Li Yuan, I am afraid it will not be so easy to attack Luoyang this time. ”

Sure enough, the news of Ma Zhou's trip to Shaolin Temple reached Wang Shichong's ears, and Wang Shichong didn't say anything, or that he didn't have time to care about this, because he was preparing to deal with Li Mi. There was no time to think about Ma Zhou at all.

On the official road to Luoyang, Li Mi was in high spirits, and in the battle against Yu Wenhua. He is the main force, Wang Shichong is just a supporting role, Yu Wenhua was defeated by Li Mi, although he suffered heavy losses. Finally defeated the figure of the 150,000 Xiaoguo army, the position of the overlord of the Central Plains seemed to have beckoned to him, and even he was thinking about how to defeat Wang Shichong after returning to the Eastern Capital. Then depose the emperor.

"Urgent, urgent." At this time, a war horse galloped in the distance. But he saw that it was a spy who had been released by himself.

"Captain Yu, fifty miles ahead, Wang Shichong led an army of 20,000 people to intercept our army." The spy jumped down and said loudly: "Wang Shichong spread rumors by the Luoshui in the morning, saying that the Duke of Zhou ordered Wang Shichong to quickly crusade against the Taiwei, and he would make great contributions, otherwise the soldiers would all die of the plague." The morale of the army under Wang Shichong was greatly boosted, and they asked for battle one after another, and their morale was very high. ”

"Hehe, Wang Shichong is a Hu person, he just likes this kind of ghost and god theory, but he is just a group of clowns who jump off the beam." Li Mi didn't take Wang Shichong to heart, he was a big family, and he also received a Confucian education, how could he look at a person like Wang Shichong.

"Tai Lieutenant, most of the soldiers under Wang Shichong are Chu people, and the Chu people like these ghosts and gods the most, Wang Shichong falsely claimed that Zhou Gong was rumored, and the soldiers below believed him and obeyed his orders, which is not a good thing for us, Tai Lieutenant still has to be careful." Chai Xiaohe said with some concern.

"Don't worry, we defeated Yu Wenhua, and now we have finished recuperating, morale is high, how can Wang Shichong be compared, attack, we want to defeat Wang Shichong in the shortest possible time, originally thought about what kind of strategy to use to kill Wang Shichong after entering Luoyang, now no need, Wang Shichong has already come to the door in person, what are we waiting for, kill Wang Shichong now, occupy Luoyang, if the emperor is obedient, forget it, if he is disobedient, we will simply kill him." Be the emperor yourself, and then enter the pass, defeat Li Xin, and achieve great things. Li Mi was in high spirits, and with a wave of his hand, it seemed that he had occupied Luoyang and unified the world.

After Chai Xiaohe heard this, his face was stunned, and he sighed for the last time, after defeating Yu Wenhua, Li Mi was a little carried away, he didn't know how big the world was, there were so many heroes and heroes, and it might be difficult to seize the world. Li Mi did not find his weakness. The 150,000 Xiaoguo army that attacked Yu Wenhua suffered heavy losses, and there were many casualties among the soldiers and horses, especially the elite soldiers, although some soldiers and horses were later supplemented, but where could these soldiers and horses be compared with the old battalion soldiers and horses, in his heart, there was a faint feeling of unease.

"What the Tai Lieutenant said is very true, now our army has nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, the soldiers are strong and strong, and the generals under his command Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin have the courage of ten thousand people, how can a Hu Er be the opponent of the Tai Lieutenant." An arrogant voice sounded, Chai Xiaohe's face was a little unsightly, it was no one else next to him, it was really Bing Yuanzhen, he was also one of Li Mi's advisers, but he was greedy for money and despised, and then he was such a person, but Li Mi trusted him very much.

"Although our number is large, but we have not trained for a long time, and our morale is not high, Tai Lieutenant, why not reward the soldiers with the savings and booty in the treasury, it will definitely arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers, and it is very easy to defeat Wang Shichong." Chai Xiaohe still seriously comforted. Chai Xiaohe knew that there might not be any money in the treasury, but there was still a lot of loot from defeating Yu Wenhua. Since the training of the army is insufficient, it simply uses money to win over the soldiers and motivate them.

"This, Mr. Chai, is this necessary? We have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, Wang Shichong only has a few people, 20,000 or 30,000 people, one person has already destroyed the other party with a mouthful of foam, the treasury is already empty, although there are small gains, but don't forget, Taiwei is going to Luoyang this time, to achieve a great cause, I am afraid that we need to win over the ministers of the DPRK, but those trophies are used to bribe the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, and they cannot be moved. Bing Yuan really said without thinking about it.

Originally, Li Mi was a little moved, but after listening to Bing Yuanzhen's words at this time, the original little thought in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace, if there was no absolute certainty, Li Mi would also scatter his wealth to gather the army's heart, but unfortunately, Wang Shichong's number was too small, only 20,000 people. Li Mi has absolute confidence to defeat the other party.

Li Mi is stationed at the head of the north mountain of Yanshi, the camp stretches for more than ten miles, the momentum is magnificent, Li Mi's golden tent is very eye-catching in the camp. Opposite him is Wang Shichong's camp on the south bank of Luoshui, but it looks like a few miles, compared to Li Mi's camp, it looks much thinner, but the evil spirit in it is shocking.

In a big tent in Li Mi, the generals Shan Xiongxin, Zu Junyan, You Junda and others all gathered together, looking at the big tent in the distance, Shan Xiongxin's face was gloomy, and he said to You Junda and others: "I don't have any confidence in this big war, and you brothers should also be careful." "In Wagangzhai, Shan Xiongxin has a good relationship with these people, so everyone gathers together.

"Hey, although it seems that we have more soldiers and horses, but in fact, most of them are new soldiers, these people have not been trained enough, and if they want to go to the battlefield, I am afraid it will be difficult. Although there are very few soldiers and horses under Wang Shichong's command, judging from the momentum revealed in the camp, he is definitely a strong general, and if he really fights, he doesn't know who wins and who loses! You Junda muttered.

"Although the treasury has no money, but this expedition to Yu Wenhua and, a lot of seizures, if you can divide one or two, reward the three armies, the three armies will definitely serve it, it's a pity." Xie Yingdeng's voice was very flat, and there was a hint of frustration in the depths of his eyes, and he said: "Mi Gong is no longer the Mi Gong of the past, what he wants is his Jiangshan Sheji, not a general in the army like us." ”

"Let's fight first, you really can't win, can't you surrender?" You Junda said disdainfully: "The world is so big, isn't there a Ming Lord who appears?" Li Yuan and Li Xin are both masters, and Dou Jiande is also okay, I think Wang Shichong is better than him. ”

"Shut up. That's what you can say. A scribe sitting next to him, with a resolute face and awe-inspiring eyes, suddenly stopped everyone in the big tent. His name is Wei Zheng, a yellow man in Wei County. His ancestral home is Julu Xiaquyang. When he was young, he was lonely and poor, and he was a Taoist priest, and later defected to Li Mi, became a clerk, and became friends with Shan Xiongxin and others. This time he also came together, although he was also dissatisfied with Li Mi's behavior, but he knew how to be a minister, and in the face of everyone's words, he still had some opposition in his heart.

"What Brother Wei said is very true, no matter what, now we are still under the command of Mi Gong, in the past, Mi Gong was not thin on us, this time it is related to the great cause of Mi Gong, we can't ignore it, if you are dissatisfied, wait until this battle is over, and then leave." Shan Xiongxin's eyes rolled and said to everyone.

"Yes, I don't think that Wang Shichong is very good. Let's fight his majesty first. Xie Yingdeng also nodded and said. Everyone said yes. (To be continued......)
