Since going north, the Tang army has been fighting with the Turkic army for more than half a month, the two sides are considered to have mutual casualties, after seven or eight years, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty once again experienced the power of the Turkic strong bow and fast horse, and after more than ten years of prosperity of horse politics, the Tang Dynasty is also not lacking in cavalry, which also offsets the advantages of the northern cavalry from another aspect.

"Please evacuate the emperor! Now Jieli has broken through Lingzhou, and Xue Yantuo is storming Xiazhou, once Xiazhou is broken, the Turks and Xue Yantuo will inevitably join forces to cut off our retreat, and then storm Huaiyuan City, then the emperor will not be able to leave. Li Ji said anxiously, he had just received the news that Lingzhou had been broken by the Turkic army, and the horn defenses of Lingzhou, Huaiyuan, and Xiazhou had failed, and if the Turks knew that Li Shimin was in Huaiyuan, they would inevitably raise troops to attack Huaiyuan City.

Li Shimin frowned, the Turks' method of using troops was strange and tricky, everyone thought that they would attack Huaiyuan first, but when they arrived in Huaiyuan, they realized that this was just a suspicious army of the Turks, the real main force of the Turks had arrived in Lingzhou, almost overnight, Lingzhou was besieged by 200,000 Turks, 30,000 defenders were all killed, and Lingzhou was lost.

"You now send someone to Xiazhou to sue Li Jing, and you must defend Xiazhou no matter what." Li Shimin said to Li Ji, "I will stay in Badyuan, and guard Huaiyuan City with 30,000 soldiers in the city, and you and Cheng Yanjin will each take 50,000 horses to ambush outside Huaiyuan City, and when the time comes, when the Turkic soldiers are tired of attacking the city, they will take the opportunity to attack." Li Shimin thought about it for a while, and decided to use himself as a bait to stay in Huaiyuan City, according to the current form, this is the best way he thought of, otherwise, once the Turks attack Chang'an directly from Lingzhou, then the Tang Dynasty's will be dangerous.

"Your Majesty, by all means, let the old minister stay in Huaiyuan City. It's too dangerous. Cheng bit Jin hurriedly said.

"Needless to say, I have made up my mind, only if I am here, the Turks will attack Huaiyuan City with all the strength of their clan, and we will fight them to the death here." Li Shimin said hatefully, at this moment, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was still the king of Qin more than ten years ago.

"This ......" Cheng Yanjin and Li Ji glanced at each other, their eyes were full of deep worry, this strategy can indeed have the effect of taking them by surprise and attacking unprepared. However, if there is a case, they will be unable to escape the blame, but they also understand Li Shimin's stubborn temper, as long as it is a matter of decision, it will not be able to pull back.

"Hey!" Cheng Yanjin turned around and sighed heavily, Li Ji shook his head, and also left, they reorganized their soldiers and horses and were ready to go out of the city at any time.

Wait for the two to leave. Li Shimin wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I deceived the two of them this time." ”

"Your Majesty, this is just for the sake of foolproofness." What the two of them didn't notice just now was that there was a strange guard standing in Li Shimin's room. This guard has never appeared by Li Shimin's side.

Li Shimin nodded, "I didn't expect this thing to be able to play such a role at a critical time." There was a hint of treachery in Li Shimin's smile.

This guard is not Li Shimin's personal guard, but Yan Si, a member of the shadow guard. When Li Su led his troops to the south, he sent him to Li Shimin's side, and at the same time, he also brought Li Shimin a big gift. And this gift is also the reason why Li Shimin gave this order easily, otherwise he would really consider whether to take this risk and stay in Huaiyuan City.

"The rest of the matter is to tell the Turks the news that the emperor was staying in Huaiyuan City." Yan Si said.

Li Shimin nodded slightly, now that the Tang Dynasty's army is all lagging behind, if this battle cannot reverse the decline, then Chang'an will be really dangerous.

In the Tuyuhun grassland, after Xue Rengui and Murong Shun's cavalry rendezvous, they set off directly to Liangzhou, went directly to the back of the Turkic army, and cooperated with the army of the Tang Dynasty to make dumplings for the Turks.

"Khan, we have received definite news that Li Shimin is still in Huaiyuan City." In the official office of Lingzhou City, a Turkic scout passed on the information he had just received to Jieli.

With a wave of his hand, Jieli asked the scout to step back, and said to Xu Junshi, who was sitting on the side frowning and pondering, "Xu Junshi, you see? The strategy of striking east and west to take Lingzhou City was exactly the attention of Xu Junshi, and this made Jieli trust him more and more.

"Khan, don't worry, it's impossible for Li Shimin not to know the news of Lingzhou being broken, and he must be deceived if he stays in Huaiyuan City." After a deep groan, Xu Junshi said.

This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Jieli, once he can capture Li Shimin, then Datang's is basically in his pocket, and more importantly, he can wash away his shame, he still remembers Li Yuan letting him dance in front of the Manchu Dynasty, and his daughter Ashnalan is still trapped in Chang'an City, "Did you miss this opportunity?" Maybe Xu Junshi wants to attack Chang'an City directly, but Chang'an City is difficult to attack, and when Li Shimin leads his troops to attack us from behind, wouldn't it be even more disadvantageous. ”

"I didn't mean that, the soldier said treacherously, Li Shimin was able to separate the Khan and the Turki Khan back then, why can't the Khan be separated from the old Turki Khan now? In this way, Li Shimin will be attacked on his back, and if we take the opportunity to attack again, Li Shimin will definitely be unable to escape. Xu Junshi said slowly.

Jieli's face was gloomy, if it wasn't for the Turks betraying him, Xue Yantuo rebelled, and countless livestock froze to death in the heavy snow, how could they be so defeated, now that he is regrouped, Xue Yantuo also realized that the threat of the Tang Dynasty was too great, so he was willing to join forces to attack, and after he was captured, many Turkic tribes were moved by Li Shimin to the Great Wall, if they could be instigated, it would definitely give Li Shimin a huge blow.

"What Xu Junshi said makes sense, but who should we persuade to follow?" Jieli asked.

"Lost in thought!" Xu Junshi said with an interesting question, "Khan, I was loyal to you before I lost my strength, as long as he can summon the old Turkic army to fight back and attack Huaiyuan from behind, then Li Shimin will definitely send an army to encircle and suppress, so that we can rest assured that we will attack the city, and Li Shimin will definitely not be able to escape the khan's palm at that time." ”

The more Jieli listened, the more excited he became, and after Xu Junshi finished speaking, he couldn't help but shout, "Okay!" Then he said, "I'll send someone to him." ”

"It's just that the Khan wants to find someone with weight, this stubbornness is now Li Shimin's concubine, there are not enough benefits, and it is still unknown whether he can submit to the Khan!" Xu Junshi added.

When this sentence was spoken, Jieli immediately calmed down, in order to stabilize the old Turkic department, Li Shimin tried his best to win over the loss of thinking power, and let him return to the Turks, he must give him enough hope, "I let Ashina Guduo go, this weight is enough." Jieli said.

Hearing this, Xu Junshi nodded, and with Jieli's son going in person, he had to think about it if he lost his thinking power......

After returning to Yizhou, he ordered more than 10,000 central troops who remained in the frontier to continue to advance to the south, and all Yunnan and other places were under the jurisdiction of Yizhou. His jewellery industry in the modern era will no longer be short of supply.

And the money earned can allow him to buy some high-end goods from modern times back to the Tang Dynasty, for example, Li Su is thinking about buying a high-end car, after riding a classic car for a period of time, Li Su is still a little unbearable, at this time I can't help but want to buy some modern sports cars from modern times for the use of the palace, those classic cars or let others use it, Li Yuan has been greedy for Li Su's classic car is not a day or two, and has always wanted Li Su to give him one, Li Su thought about it and simply let it go to him, and bought a few top sports cars from Hyundai himself, It will be more convenient to go to Chang'an in the future, anyway, with a classic car, no matter how advanced a sports car comes out, it will inevitably cause new panic.
