Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The matter of Yongnian City is roughly settled.

The Xia army was dispersed to accept the adaptation, and the old ministers were unwilling to release them, and the rest were all hired.

I heard that Li Chongjiu broke through Gaoyang City, then captured Yongnian City, swept Xu and Xia, and seized Hebei.

Wang Shichong's envoy Du Yan came again, accompanied by the deputy envoy Wang Wan and the eldest grandson An Shi.

These two deputy envoys are also unusual, Wang Wan is the son of Wang Shichong's brother Wang Shiwei, the king of Chu, and he was named the acting king by Wang Shichong, and the eldest grandson An Shi is from the famous patriarch Sun of the Northern Noble Relatives, and the eldest grandson Wuji and Princess Qin are all in-laws.

The more respectful the look on Du Yan's face, the man in front of him, in less than a month, had already included the land of Hebei, and now he had an army of more than 100,000 people, sitting in Hebei to watch the Zhengtang War.

"Congratulations to Zhao for taking Xu, Xia Erguo, and unifying Hebei. Our lord specially presented a hundred pearls and a hundred beautiful jade to congratulate Lord Zhao on the joy of victory. ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "Lord Zheng is too polite, thanks to the generals' lives, fortunately they will not be dishonored." I don't know what the current situation is in Luoyang? ”

Du Yanyan said: "I was about to tell King Zhao that a month ago, His Majesty led 30,000 horses and 50,000 Tang troops led by Li Shimin to Cijian Battle, and the two armies fought several battles, which were comparable. ”

"Li Shimin is the first general of the Tang Army, and Zheng Zhu is fighting with 30,000 elites, and it is not easy to be evenly divided." Li Chongjiu looked surprised.

Wang Wan, who was beside Du Yan, opened his mouth and said: "Although the Guanzhong Mansion Army is elite, the 30,000 soldiers under His Majesty's command are the soldiers recruited in Jianghuai back then. ”

I see, the generals showed a sudden look. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world rose one after another, and the elite of the 300,000 government troops of the imperial court lost their troops in Liaodong. The officers and armies in various places can be called strong forces, respectively, Yang Guang's pro-army and Xiaoguo army. Luo Yi's Youzhou Iron Cavalry, Zhang Xutuo's Qi County Soldiers. Finally, it was Wang Shichong's Jianghuai army.

Jianghuai has produced elite soldiers since ancient times, Xiang Yu's 8,000 soldiers who swept the world, and Xie Xuan and Liu Gaozhi's Beifu soldiers are all from Jianghuai. In history, Li Shimin's six horses in Zhaoling, two of the horses were killed in the battle with Wang Shichong, and even Li Shimin, who was the main general, was like this, which shows how tragic the Tang and Zheng wars were at that time.

No wonder Wang Shichong is in a head-to-head duel with Li Shimin Cijian. It doesn't fall behind.

"Since it is evenly divided, Lord Zheng can hold on to Li Shimin in Cijian and block the Tang army's road out of the Central Plains from Tongguanxi." Xue Wanshu opened his mouth to speak.

Du Yanyan said: "I don't know, His Majesty also has this plan, but the Tang army did not come all the way, Li Shimin, the commander of the Tang Army, ordered Shi Wanbao, the head of the Xiongzhou Road march, to send troops from Yiyang to attack Yique Longmen, and Liu Dewei of the Luzhou Road march from Taihang to the east to attack Hanoi Huaizhou. Chai Shao, the head of the Jingzhou Road march, attacked Luokou and cut off the grain and grass of our army, and Huang Junhan, the head of Huaizhou, attacked back to Luocheng from Heyin, and His Majesty had no choice but to return to Luoyang. ”

The eldest grandson An Shiyan on the side said: "Right now, Li Shimin's army. It has been stationed in Beibi Mountain, which is located in the north of Luoyang, and the company camp has advanced to Luoyang. And the governor of Weizhou, Shi Fanshui, Zhang Gongjin, and Weizhou Assassin Shi Cui Shu descended to the Tang Dynasty with Weizhou City. ”

Speaking of this, the eldest grandson Anshi paused and said, "When we left Luoyang, we just got the news. Huang Junhan, the governor of Huaizhou, sent the captain Zhang Yesha to attack back to Los Angeles with a boat division, and returned to Los Angeles to break the city. Our army's general Da Xi Shanding was captured, and the Heyang South Bridge was cut off by the Tang army. His Majesty sent the crown prince, the crown prince, Xuan Yingshuai, Yang Gongqing, and others to attack Luo. If you don't stop, you can only build the moon city to the west of it and leave troops to fight it. And Huaizhou has already been marched for Luzhou Road, and Liu Dewei has captured and lost. ”

Hearing this, the generals were silent for a while, and no one could see that Zheng Guo's battle situation was obviously unfavorable.

Du Yan bowed to Li Chongjiu at the moment and said: "Lord Zhao has broken the summer, Xu Erguo, the power is in Hebei, the soldiers are brave and brave, I don't know what to do next?" ”

On the side, the eldest grandson An Shi also said: "Zhao Zhu's soldiers are 100,000, and the generals are 100 members, and the dragon and the tiger are looking at each other, which can be said to be pivotal. ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and said nothing, this Du Yan, the eldest grandson An Shi put a high hat on his head, this rhetoric is also quite ingenious, Wang Wan first paved the way, saying that Wang Shichong's Jianghuai army and Li Tangfu army have the strength to fight, and then put on a high hat for himself, saying that the aid to Zheng Po Tang is as easy as a backhand.

Zhang Xuansu smiled at the moment: "The two of you are serious, and the current situation of our country is not favorable, so I can't hide it, the Turkic army of more than 100,000 people is in the northern pressure realm, and it is about to hit the Youjing City." ”

Hearing that the eldest grandson An Shi and Du Yan were both discolored.

"Really?"

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "That's right, our army will return to Youjing tomorrow." ”

This time, the three envoys of Zheng Guo, who had come with hope, were all in despair. Du Yan said: "But King Zhao, what he said at the beginning was that once he captured Yongnian City, he would immediately go south to help Zheng!" ”

Zhang Xuansu said: "At this time and that time, if the secluded capital is broken, even if we save Zheng Guo, it will be useless." ”

Li Chongjiu said comfortingly: "After the siege of Youjing is flattened, I will go south immediately, and I ask Lord Zheng to be patient." ”

The three envoys of Zheng Guo looked sad at the moment, and the eldest grandson An Shi even wept in public.

After the three of them left, the generals were quite unbearable, Qin Qiongyan said: "Although Wang Shichong is not our ally, Li Tang is our mortal enemy, and now is indeed the time for Lian Zheng to resist Tang." ”

Ji Chuan said: "But General Qin, what the king did is right, now he must go north to help Youjing, and immediately negotiate peace with the Turks, so as to make full preparations for the war against Li Tang." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "There are priorities, and returning to Youjing cannot be changed. I understand what you said, but the Tang army didn't expect that we could use the Yongji Canal to transfer troops, with this waterway, Youzhou to Liyang can be reached in half a month, and it will be easy to make a comeback in the future. ”

The next day, Li Chongjiu's army division, Du Yan, the eldest grandson An Shi and others were under Yongnian City, and when they saw that the main force of the Zhao army really pulled out the camp and returned north, they all hung their heads.

Wang Wan said: "If we are told to go back like this, how can we see our uncle!" Du Shangshu, what you said before, Li Chongjiu is a kind person, and after this summer, he will definitely help Zheng. But you see, this person only understands that he Zhao Guo has one acre and three points of land, and he doesn't care about my Zheng Guo's life or death. ”

Du Yan was so angry for Wang Wan when he was still the secretary of the court, but he didn't say a word, Wang Shichong was nepotistic, such as Wang Wan was a relative of the Wang family, and it was just a sentence to really kill a Wenchen like Du Yan.

How dare Du Yan offend, the eldest grandson An Shi is a good man, and persuaded on the side: "Don't be angry on behalf of the king, Li Chongjiu doesn't help Zheng, it's understandable." In a different place, what will you do on behalf of the king? ”

Wang Wan's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "That's it, that's it, I just know that Zhao Guo is unreliable, and after returning to Luoyang, I will fight Li Tang directly under Luoyang City with my uncle." ”

"King Zhao!"

Wang Wan suddenly heard Du Yan's words full of joy, and when he turned around, he saw Li Chongjiu, Zhang Xuansu, Ji Chuan, Xue Wanche and others coming together.

Du Yan stepped forward and said to Li Chongjiu: "Could it be that King Zhao has changed his lord's will and raised troops to aid Zheng?" Du Yan's voice trembled, and he was obviously very excited in his heart.

Li Chongjiu said: "Du Shangshu, you misunderstood, Lone is here to give you a ride." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three of them suddenly showed disappointment, Li Chongjiu looked at the expressions of the three of them, smiled and said: "Du Shangshu, do you remember the three conditions I told you before to aid Zheng?" ”

Du Yan was a little depressed, but he still said: "I remember that one is to protect Huaizhou, Heyang is not lost, if you can't, you can return to Luo, Luokou, Hanjia Sancang is not lost, if you can't, you will not lose the tiger." ”

The eldest grandson An Shi said on the side: "What are these things now, Huaizhou, Heyang, and Huiluo have all fallen, King Zhao begs your understanding, it is really ...... if it is not our army, we can't fight to the death."

General Li Chongjiu stopped his hand and said, "I understand, General Qin." ”

"The last general will obey orders." Qin Qiong strode out.

Li Chongjiu said to Du Yan: "This is my beloved general Qin Qiong, I ordered him to lead a thousand elites to cross the Yellow River to help Lord Zheng guard the tiger prison." ”

"A thousand men is too little!" Wang Wan hurriedly said, "At least 10,000 troops, if not 8,000." ”

Qin Qiong snorted heavily and said: "It's too little, and you're still grinding with the king here, Qin's 1,000 men and horses are enough to beat you and your 10,000 horses, call me Old Qin Shouhu Prison, are you still dissatisfied?" I'm afraid you're dragging my old Qin back. ”

Du Yan, the eldest grandson An Shi saw it for fear that both sides would turn their faces, and they didn't even have this thousand people. The two hurriedly stepped forward, and when the peacemaker said: "Lord Zhao can help us in this time of crisis, I Zheng Guo is really grateful, I am here on behalf of His Majesty Xià thank King Zhao for his kindness." ”

Wang Wan didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Li Chongjiu, and immediately apologized to Li Chongjiu and said: "Little Wang Menglang, please forgive King Zhao." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "It's okay, Du Shangshu, there are three conditions for me to send General Qin to aid Zheng. ”

"Conditional?" Du Yan couldn't help but be surprised, Li Chongjiu gave himself three conditions last time, and what are the three conditions this time.

Now the shape is stronger than the people, for Du Yan and them, holding Li Chongjiu's thighs tightly is the only chance for Zheng Guo, although only a thousand men and horses are sent, but it means that King Zhao is willing to enter the battle, and it is possible to add more troops in the future.

Du Yan said at the moment: "But please ask King Zhao to show me, and we will definitely comply." ”

Wang Wan snorted lightly, feeling that Du Yan was too low.

Li Chongjiu nodded, and said with a smile: "I won't embarrass you, General Qin is stationed in the Tiger Prison Pass, and one of them needs good wine and meat, so don't slack off." ”

"Of course it does." The eldest grandson, Anshi, agreed to the past.

Li Chongjiu said: "Secondly, my 1,000 men and horses only help the Zheng army to guard the Tiger Prison Pass, and the rest will not stop Zheng Guo to be dispatched by anyone, and thirdly, if the situation is critical, our army can retreat independently, and you must not be forced to stay." ”

The three envoys of Zheng Guo glanced at each other, and finally said together: "One qiē will be done according to the will of King Zhao." ”

Listening to the three of them, all the generals of the Zhao army breathed a sigh of relief, Qin Qiong's thousand people, even if Li Chongjiu made a secret move for the future Zhao, Tang and Zheng Three Kingdoms War, in order to reverse the battle of the Tiger Prison Pass in history, I don't know if it can be successful?
