"Boom!" Li Xin has not had such a short contact for a long time, after being taught a lesson by Du Ruhui and others last time, today he finally has the opportunity to cross the field, the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand is waved again and again, and he can kill an enemy every time he attacks, where has Xu Shiji's army seen such a fierce person, even if it is Shen Ruyan, Xu Shiji is just a Confucian general, relying on making trouble, but now Li Xin is using powerful force to defeat the enemy in front of him, more ferocious, more intuitive.

"Shen Ruyan." Li Xin looked at Shen Ruyan, who was a little nervous in the crowd, his face was stunned, a burst of murderous intent flashed, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand was waved out again and again to drive away the distance between himself and Shen Ruyan, so that Shen Ruyan could face him instantly.

"Chop." Li Xin didn't wait for Shen Ruyan to speak, the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand was cut down, Shen Ruyan bit her silver teeth, and the double swords in her hand went up, with a soft sound, Shen Ruyan felt a huge force falling from the sky, the double swords were smashed, and she couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.

"Come over to Lao Tzu." Li Xin grabbed Shen Ruyan over, put him on the saddle, and said to Wei Chigong: "Don't be stunned, lead the army to kill the past, and attack Xu Shiji from behind, Xu Shiji, hehe, even his mother-in-law is here this time, this king wants to see what he can do to return to Jinyang, how can a person who can't even keep his wife be reused by Li Yuan." ”

"Yes, don't worry, the prime minister will definitely not let Xu Shiji run away." Yu Chigong looked at Shen Ruyan, who was lying on the saddle and fainted, as an enemy, a woman fell into the hands of Li Xin, there was absolutely no good end, especially Xu Shiji's woman.

Xu Shiji, who was fighting with Pei Shiju, no longer knew that Shen Ruyan had fallen into the hands of Li Xin, or even if he knew, he didn't care about it, and the army led by Pei Shiju was ambushed on three sides, cutting off Xu Shiji's front, middle, and rear armies. Constantly encroaching on the other party, the morale of the army was affected, Xu Shiji knew that the other party made a move, and he didn't even have the strength to resist, after half an hour of fierce fighting, this guy gave up his woman very decisively, and led the team of people to attack frantically Everything in front of him, more than 10,000 troops marched forward bravely, all of them took a lifeless attack, and they were really forced to open a gap by Xu Shiji. However, it was also a heavy loss, behind them, Pei Shiju, Su Dingfang, Wei Chigong, Cheng Biting Jin and others were like poisonous snakes, following Xu Shiji, not only attacking his rear army, although Xu Shiji fled, but he was still bitten by the other party.

Li Xin's army fought from early morning until late in the evening, knowing that Xu Shiji led more than a thousand soldiers to take advantage of the darkness to sink into the deep mountains, so he stopped the pursuit. The three armies set up a large camp in Gaoqiao Village to check the harvest during the day.

"Prime Minister, the last general can't let Xu Shiji run away." Pei Renji said with some shame.

"A man who can give up even his own father and his own woman, it is very difficult for you to capture him alive." Li Xin waved his hand and said, "A general who only knows how to run." Not a good general, even if he can achieve victory in a short time, he will still be defeated by our army in the future, everyone. This is not the matter that is being considered now, our goal will be in a different direction, and that is Hedong. Li Xin stood up. Pointing to the map behind him.

"Hedong!" The generals' eyes lit up, and they soon understood the truth, Li Shimin led the army far away in Hebei, and there was a Dou Jiande behind him, not to mention whether he could defeat Dou Jiande, at least he would not return to Hedong and return to Bingzhou in a short time, so this was Li Tang's opportunity to attack Hedong.

"Yes, it is Hedong, Hedong now only has 20,000 horses from Qu Tutong, and the prime minister is now 80,000 soldiers and horses, General Li Jing will lead an army of 30,000 divisions back to the court, I am afraid that when we arrive in Chang'an, General Li Jing will also lead the army to arrive, we have an army of 110,000, and it is easy to attack Hedong, if possible, it is possible to seize more territory, and even defeat Li Zhao to capture the entire state." Fang Xuanling said loudly.

"Yes, we are attacking Hedong, we were just intimidating Qu Tutong at the beginning, but this time it is real. The three armies were ordered to leave tomorrow, and our squad returned to Beijing. Li Xin said with a smile: "This king wants to see what kind of face Li Yuan will have after knowing this, according to the news from Jinyiwei, when he was choosing between the Southern Expedition or the Eastern Expedition, Li Zhao's court had a dispute, and in the end Li Yuan won, tsk, Li Shimin's fruit today is the cause of the day." If Li Yuan had let Li Shimin attack Hebei, where would I have waited for today's results, Li Zhao lost more than 100,000 people this time, tsk, Li Yuan has been working hard for so many years, and the last battle has been lost, I am afraid that he will not even be able to sleep peacefully. ”

"Congratulations to the Prime Minister, congratulations to the Prime Minister." Everyone shouted one after another, Li Yuan's strength weakened, which meant that Li Xin's military strength increased, and it would be no good for everyone to follow Li Xin's side.

"This is still Dou Jiande's territory, it is inconvenient to drink today, and after returning to Chang'an, I will reward the three armies." Li Xin nodded and said, "King Lone believes that with your help, I will definitely be able to overcome difficulties and finally seize the world." ”

"Subordinates obey." Everyone nodded their heads.

There was nothing to say that night, the next day Li Xin ordered the division to return to the court, the army did not go from the Tiger Pass, but took the water division, from Mengjin through Hongnong to leave Luoyang, to Tongguan, although Wang Shichong went to Mengjin to see off, but Li Xin did not see him, Dou Jiande came to Liyang, the cause and effect has long been reported to Li Xin by Jinyiwei, Li Xin did not know that there is a good thing Wang Shichong did behind this.

And Li Yuan, who is far away in Jinyang, has not been in good health since the beginning of winter, after the news of Li Shimin's defeat in Luoyang reached Jinyang, the imperial court shook, Li Yuan fainted in court, and the government and the opposition were in chaos, if it were not for Li Jiancheng to take charge, I am afraid that the Li Zhao court would completely collapse.

In the palace, in the Qianyang Palace, Li Yuan leaned on the dragon couch, Yin and Zhang Erfei served Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Pei Lin sat respectfully on the brocade bench opposite, the melancholy between the eyebrows did not disappear, Li Yuan's body was much better, but the situation in the court made the two of them a little worried.

"Where is King Qin now? He still has 50,000 troops in his hands, and he may return to Bingzhou safely? Li Yuan's face was faintly old, the defeat of Luoyang had a great impact on him, and now he is no longer the original Li Yuan. The life of the emperor has made his life completely decayed.

"The battle report I received yesterday, the second brother has already said that Xu Shiji, the governor of Liyang, has been demoted, and the second brother's soldiers and horses have increased to 80,000." Li Jiancheng hurriedly said: "I believe that Li Xin cannot be defeated in a short time, and it is still possible to maintain the current situation, Erchen sees that Wang Shichong is not really obedient to Li Xin, this time he repelled our Da Zhao, and the next step will definitely expel Li Xin, Li Xin should not stay long in Henan." ”

"Eighty thousand troops, hehe, I'm afraid Dou Jiande won't let the eighty thousand army come back." Li Yuan shook his head and sneered.

"Erchen is in charge of his own affairs, let Sanniang lead the army to reinforce Huguan, if there is a crisis, Sanniang should go out of Huguan to welcome the return of the second brother." Li Jiancheng said with some worry. Military power cannot be moved lightly, and Li Jiancheng is the crown prince, and he does not dare to touch it easily.

"You are the crown prince, and this country will still be passed on to you in the future, I am very happy that you do this." Li Yuan seemed to see Li Jiancheng's worry, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "It's right for you to let Sanniang go, but compared to King Qin, I am more worried about Hedong." Li Xin will not let go of this opportunity, and his next move must be Hedong. Now that Li Jing has returned to the army, although most of his soldiers and horses are aimed at Xiao Miao, the arrival of Li Jing means that Li Xin can withdraw his hands to deal with his enemies, or Da Zhao, or Wang Shichong or Xiao Miao, most likely against us. Dalang, you're ready. ”

"Please also ask my father to show me." Li Jiancheng hurriedly said.

"Allies, please." Li Yuan's face was calm, and he said: "Li Xin's power increases, we need allies, he is now a strong Qin, and our family is definitely not his opponent, so we need allies, Jiangnan Xiao Miao, Henan Wang Shichong, Hebei Dou Jiande, and even the Turks can become our allies." Da Lang, Da Zhao Jiangshan can't be taken away by Li Xin, the son of a servant, you understand. What Li Yuan regrets most now is that he didn't kill Li Xin in the first place, which made Li Xin his confidant.

"We just had a fight with Wang Shichong, Erlang is attacking Dou Jiande now, can this work? The ambition of the Turkic wolf son is not certain, whether he will agree to our request! Li Jiancheng said with some concern.

"The ambition of the Turks and wolves will never want our country." Li Yuan's face was gloomy, and he said: "As for Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, in the face of Li Xin's strength, I don't believe that the two of them can bear it. ”

"Yes." Li Jiancheng sighed deeply, he didn't like to unite the Turks, unite the Turks, he could only let the Turks get more money and more population, and in the end it was still the Han people who were unlucky.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Li Xin is not strong, although we have had a small setback in the past, it is because we did not take Li Xin to heart, as long as we face Li Xin, Li Xin is still vulnerable, this battle of Liyang, the King of Qin led the army to kill Li Xin's general Shen Guang and three thousand elites, easy to kill, it is enough to show that Li Tang is vulnerable." Pei Lin said with a smile.

Li Yuan suddenly showed a smile on his face when he heard this, and quickly thought of something, and said: "Although this is good, but the King of Qi is still in the hands of Li Xin, and there are still 50,000 elite soldiers, and now they are also in the hands of Li Xin, what can you do?" Although Li Yuanji is ugly, he is Li Yuan's biological son, and now that he has fallen into the hands of Li Xin, Li Yuan is a little worried about Li Yuanji's safety.

"Erchen is going to send someone to Chang'an to redeem the fourth brother and 50,000 soldiers." Li Jiancheng hesitated for a while before saying. He knew in his heart that it would not be a simple matter to redeem Li Yuanji and 50,000 soldiers, and Li Xin would not be so stupid, which meant that Li Zhao would pay a large amount of ransom, plus he would have to make friends with the Turks, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande in the future, even if it was the support of the Dong family, it would cost an astronomical amount.
