Chapter 627: Escape
In Hedong City, Su Dingfang made a handsome seat, Cen Wenwen and Dou Hongxian sat on both sides, Su Dingfang held a letter in his hand, and said with a smile: "The prime minister has taken the Bird Mouse Valley, Li Shimin is probably going to run away." ”
The generals showed joy one after another, the light in Dou Hongxian's beautiful eyes flashed, she was very curious about Li Xin's feelings, because it was rumored that Li Xin had a widow's disease, and she didn't know how many beauties around her, she knew her appearance very well, so she would make an appointment with Cen Wenwen and the two of them, and would not enter the palace as a concubine, I thought that after Li Xin saw him, he would express something, but unexpectedly Li Xin treated him politely, and did not because he was a woman, he could not lead the army, and canonized himself as a Xianghou, The soldiers and horses of Hebei are still under their own command. For this approach, Dou Hongxian admired it very much in his heart, and then what he didn't expect was that Li Xin was so powerful, saying that he had taken the Bird Mouse Valley, and really won the Bird Mouse Valley, although the 10,000 army was a sneak attack, but after all, it was in the hands of Li Yuanji that he seized this strategic place, which made Li Shimin's advantage disappear overnight, and Li Yuan, who lost the Bird Mouse Valley and sat in Taiyuan, was afraid that he was a little scared in his heart. Dou Hongxian was very grateful to Li Xin from this point.
"I don't know what the prime minister's order is?" Dou Hongxian thought that he should also express himself, and said: "Although we have suffered a lot of casualties at the moment, Li Shimin is even more serious, the loss of the Bird Mouse Valley, their food and grass will also become a problem, there is no way to retreat, the morale of the army will be affected, and our attack at this time will definitely expand the results." ”
"Yes, this little crumb, but I was calculated at the beginning, and this time I should taste our awesomeness." Liu Heimin shouted loudly, when he was in Hebei, he was beaten by Li Shimin and fled, and finally even Dou Jiande was killed by Li Shimin, Liu Heimin wanted to repay this hatred. It's not just Liu Heimin. Even the other generals did the same.
Cen Wenwen and Su Dingfang glanced at each other, but finally shook their heads and said with a wry smile: "Although the prime minister asked me to do what I can, do you know how many brothers we have killed or injured in Hedong City now?" There are more than 60,000 people, we don't have many soldiers and horses, and the Turks are ravaging Pujindu, although Pujindu has not yet been conquered, but our grain, grass, and equipment cannot be transported, and it may be difficult to defeat Li Shimin. What's more, we also have to monitor the Turks, Li Shimin can leave Hedong, this was his base camp back then, he will evacuate from Zhongtiao Mountain and Taihang Mountain, but the Turks cannot, if we fight Li Shimin at this time, we will let the Turks go. ”
"It is also unrealistic to fight Li Shimin in a decisive battle at this time, and Li Shimin's soldiers and horses did not lose much. If it weren't for the prime minister occupying the Bird Mouse Valley and cutting off his food route, it would definitely be difficult for Hedong to hold on. Therefore, the lower officials think that our goal is still to target the Turks. Cen Wenwen whispered.
"Since Lord Cen said so, let's settle down like this. Deal with the Turks first. Although Li Shimin has escaped now, he is also a grasshopper after the autumn, and he won't be able to jump for long. After Liu Heimin heard this, he waved his hand indifferently and said, "We are following behind the prime minister." Are you still afraid that you won't be able to defeat Li Shimin? ”
"It's a pity that Li Shimin has to run away." Su Dingfang was also unhappy, after all, compared to the Turks. Su Dingfang is more willing to capture Li Shimin alive, the only regret is that he does not have such a chance, and now he can only watch Li Shimin escape.
"If you take down the Turks, you can congratulate the prime minister on his enthronement." Cen Wenwen said with a smile: "It is a good time for you generals to make meritorious contributions, and you must be the envy of the world. ”
"The prime minister is about to ascend the throne?" Liu Heimin's eyes flickered, who doesn't want to make contributions, who doesn't want to seal his wife and son, there was a Dou Jiande before, but unfortunately Dou Jiande was yesterday's yellow flower, although he ascended the throne and called the emperor, but it was a flash in the pan, what was given was only a flower in the mirror, the moon in the water, but Li Xin was different, the south was about to be unified, and now it occupies the Central Plains.
"Luoyang has been taken, the east and west of Kyoto have fallen into the hands of the prime minister, as long as the east of the river is stable, it is natural to be able to ascend the throne and call the emperor, the prime minister is mighty in the world, no one in the world does not admire, the prime minister ascended the throne and called the emperor, the sea praises it, you are so lucky!" Cen Wenwen said the truth, in the troubled times, it is easier for military generals to be marquis and generals, but civil officials are much worse, but Li Xin has always been very generous to his courtiers, even if he will be able to make marquis in the future.
"Mr. is the best in the world in terms of wisdom, and the prime minister is extremely trusted, and I am afraid that there will be places to rely on Mr. in the future." Liu Heimin arched his hand towards Cen Wenwen, he was very clever and knew who should be stammered in the future and who could not be offended.
"There are so many things about the wisdom of the DPRK and China, but the general is the wrong person." Cen Wenwen glanced at Dou Hongxian, Liu Heimin saw it clearly, and immediately laughed, but he didn't know how to think in his heart.
"Sir, what if you tell the Turks about Li Shimin's escape?" Su Dingfang said suddenly.
Cen Wenwen thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Even if we tell the Turks, the Turks will follow Li Shimin out of Hedong, and we don't have the extra troops to strangle." If Li Shimin leaves, we will have a chance to deal with the Turks. Don't make any extraneous branches. Cen Wenwen didn't want the Turks and Li Shimin to kill each other, but there were too few soldiers and horses in his hands, and now it was difficult to even get out of the city, so he could only hide in the city, watch Li Shimin leave, and then everyone dealt with the Turks together.
"It's a pity." Dou Hongxian also nodded, she suddenly galloped out of the door, got on her own war horse, and galloped towards the city wall, Su Dingfang and the others did not dare to slack off, and followed closely, everyone went up to the city wall together, looking at Li Shimin's camp in the distance, it was obvious to the naked eye that the camp was extremely chaotic, obviously Li Shimin already knew the situation in the Bird Mouse Valley, and was now withdrawing his troops.
"King Qin, it seems that Su Dingfang already knows that you are going to withdraw your troops." The situation on the city wall also attracted the attention of Fang Xuanling and others, he looked at Su Dingfang and the others on the city wall, and said very easily.
"Hey, now I'm a little envious of Li Xin, his subordinate Li Jing won't talk about it for the time being, and then look at Su Dingfang and others, they are all characters who can take charge of themselves, at this time, even if they know that the king is retreating, they can still hold down the ** in their hearts, don't come to harass me, chase me, they know that he is also a person with hills and valleys in his heart, this person is not simple!" Li Shimin said with some sighs.
Fang Xuanling nodded, and he smiled again: "I'm afraid Su Dingfang is also very depressed at this time, if he has 50,000 elites in his hands, no, 30,000 elites will dare to come out to intercept His Highness, but unfortunately, although he has soldiers and horses in his hands, most of them are Hebei soldiers, not soldiers and horses in Guanzhong who have been painstakingly trained, otherwise, it will be very difficult for His Highness to retreat." ”
Li Shimin nodded and said with a smile: "Let's go, go and meet Su Dingfang." Let the Xuanjia Iron Rider prepare. ”
"Your Highness!" Fang Xuanling was about to stop it, but when he saw that Li Shimin had already galloped away, he had to order Hou Junji to lead the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry and prepare to attack the soldiers and horses in Hedong.
"It's General Su Dingfang Su above? Xiao Wang Li Shimin met General Su. Li Shimin looked at Su Dingfang on the city wall, smiled, and arched his hand towards the other party, but there was no appearance of a life and death enemy.
"Li Shimin, if you don't leave at this time, do you still want to stay here?" Su Dingfang snorted coldly and said: "The Bird Mouse Valley has been obtained by the prime minister, if I were you, leave here as soon as possible, otherwise, I won't even have a chance to leave." Although you are the brother of Concubine Li, but the two countries are at war, if you are killed, even Concubine Li will not be able to stop it. ”
Li Shimin's face was gloomy when he heard this, and he quickly returned to his original appearance, and said: "Although Li Xin has won a victory in a short time, he will be killed by this king sooner or later in the future. General Su is a masterpiece of a generation, not weak to obey my Da Zhao, this king must treat the general with courtesy, what does the general think? ”
"King Qin, what if we spread the news of King Qin's imminent evacuation to the Turks?" When Li Shimin was proud, he saw a warm voice like jade suddenly came from the city wall, and then he saw a middle-aged man appear on the city wall, the middle-aged man was handsome, only a pair of eyes were dark and bright, like a deep pool, flashing with the light of wisdom, Li Shimin had seen countless people, looking at Cen Wenwen's face suddenly became solemn.
"Who is Mr. Dare to ask?" Li Shimin suddenly mentioned in his heart, if it was as Cen Wenwen said, Su Dingfang would certainly not attack him, but once the Turks knew that they were going to flee, they would definitely be dissatisfied with themselves, and after leaving the Central Plains in the future, the army of the Turks would definitely come roaring, which would be unfavorable to Dazhao.
"Xiaguan Datang Wude Hall Walking Cen Text." Cen Wenwen arched his hand towards Li Shimin with a smile and said: "I have heard for a long time that King Qin is wise, but when I see it today, it is just like that, in the face of danger, but he is still in Hedong, do you really think that my Tang King has no way to deal with you?" Xianghou only brought 50,000 troops this time, and there are still 40,000 people in Taihang Mountain, if these 40,000 troops are requisitioned together, will King Qin still have the courage to be here? If Xia Guan is the king of Qin, he should quickly take advantage of this opportunity to leave Hedong. ”
"The people of the world understand what the gentleman said." Li Shimin's face was solemn when he heard this, he arched his hand towards Cen Wenwen, and immediately turned around and left, but his face was extremely bad, he originally looked at the truth and reality, but he didn't expect to be taught a lesson by Li Xin's courtiers, which made him extremely annoyed.
"Hehe, King Qin walks slowly." Cen Wenwen arched his hand indifferently and let Li Shimin leave. (To be continued......)
