Chapter 468: What is Li Xin doing?

"Actually appeared in Lishan, tsk, what a Tang King!"

After receiving the information that Li Xin appeared in Lishan, Li Shimin's face was complicated, he didn't know how to describe the matter, he was fighting in full swing here, and he was worried about when Li Xin would sneak attack from behind, but what he didn't expect was that the other party actually stayed on Lishan with his own woman to recuperate, which made Li Shimin happy and a little jealous at the same time. Originally, such treatment should have been enjoyed by oneself. How could it be Li Xin's turn?

"Now that he already knows that Li Xin is still in Lishan Palace, it proves that he is really injured, and he will not lead the army to attack in a short time, he sent Pei Xingjian to lead 10,000 troops to attack Hongnong, I am afraid he doesn't want us to occupy Hongnong easily." The eldest grandson Wuji didn't know what was thinking in his heart at the moment, maybe he was relieved, maybe he had other thoughts, but one thing was absolutely agreed, Li Xin didn't care about Wang Shichong's death, or thought that Li Shimin couldn't conquer Luoyang, so he didn't send troops to contain Li Shimin.

"Li Xin also underestimated this king too much, do you think that this king really can't conquer Luoyang? Then the king let him see if a small Luoyang was the opponent of the king. Li Shimin was angry and angry in his heart, he thought that Li Xin was insulting himself, and he thought that he would never be able to attack Luoyang.

This person is also a very strange animal, if Li Xin sent a large army to Luoyang, I am afraid that Li Shimin will say that Li Xin is not martial, and now he only sent 10,000 people to come, Li Shimin thinks that Li Xin is looking down on him.

Li Shimin personally came to lead the army and stationed on the Beibi Mountain in the northwest of Luoyang, condescending, commanding the overall situation, first attacked Luoyang, found that Wang Shichong This guy was a turtle shell, and after getting rid of the dangerous passes of the fortresses around Luoyang that he personally occupied himself, he did not come out at all, and Li Shimin was very simple later. Sent Shi Wanbao to capture Longmen from Yiyang to cut off the connection between Luoyang and Nanyang in the south, sent Zhai Changsun to cross Taihang, besiege Huaizhou, and prepare to cut off the connection between Luoyang and the Tiger Prison Pass in the north and east, and sent Huang Junhan south to Heyin, attack back to Luocheng, cut off the grain road that Luoyang and Huiluocang saw, and then shot Liu Wenjing to lead the army to attack Luokoucang and cut the grain road in Luoyang. To put it thoroughly, it is to say that the entire Luoyang is besieged in the land of projectiles and trapped Wang Shichong.

Wang Shichong also felt bad, first he sent Shan Xiongxin and others to guard the Dragon Gate, barely keeping the connection between himself and Nanyang, and then when he attacked other places, he was beaten back by Li Shimin, and for a while, he got rid of Nanyang. Wang Shichong has really become deaf and blind.

At this time, Wang Shichong was also completely unlucky, in the end, he usurped the throne, and in the end, he was of Hu blood. Wang Shichong's rule did not stabilize around Luoyang, and after he took the throne in a hurry, Li Shimin led a large army to attack, and Wang Shichong did not have time to consolidate it.

But Li Shimin is different. Coming from a big family and occupying the places around Luoyang, the army has strong strategic mobility. At this time, as long as Li Shimin's soldiers and horses went, the cities around Luoyang surrendered one after another, and the situation was once again very good.

Li Shimin was also proud in the face of this situation, and continued to lead the army to besiege, not to knock Wang Shichong, so that Wang Shichong felt his existence, everyone can know the current situation, Wang Shichong is basically powerless to return to the sky, unless there is a great miracle general, let Li Shimin withdraw the army himself. There were even cases of defections in Wang Shichong's army.

Is Li Shimin happy? No, he was not happy at all, Hongnong had already been complained to him, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, did all kinds of evil in Hongnong, and did many things that angered people and resented people, which made Li Shimin angry and angry.

"Is the matter clear? Is it really Yuanji's doing? In the big tent, the three old men sat tremblingly on the brocade stool, Li Shimin looked gloomy, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said.

"Back to King Qin, it has been found out, and King Qi is indeed inappropriate." The eldest grandson Wuji smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "What the three elders said is true, in the past half a month, the King of Qi has robbed thirteen women, and at present, some of these women have been ravaged to death, and some are still in the big tent. ”

"Damn." Li Shimin stood up violently, pushed the several cases in front of him to the ground, and roared loudly: "How can he be like this, how can he be like this." Haven't you heard of a saying that the government forces the people to rebel, and the people have to rebel? Isn't this kind of behavior forcing the common people to rebel themselves? ”

Li Shimin's anger sounded in the big tent, but no one dared to say anything, even the three old men who came from Hongnong were calm, and suddenly an old man in the middle said very calmly: "At the beginning, the Tang King also led the army to Hongnong, but he passed Hongnong and did not enter, the military discipline is strict, although he has confronted the Kanto over the years, the army has never been out of Tongguan, harassed Hongnong, I have heard for a long time that Li Zhao is from a big family, and the King of Qin is also a beloved son like a people. When the king of Qi led the army to attack Hongnong, we led the Hongnong people to overthrow Wang Shichong's rule and welcome the king of Qi into Hongnong, but we didn't expect to attract a white-eyed wolf. ”

Li Shimin's face was hot for a while, and finally coughed twice, and said to the eldest grandson Wuji: "Take my general order, capture Li Yuanji, seize his military power, temporarily reduce him to the common people, and escort him to Jinyang for his father to deal with personally." ”

"Yes." The eldest grandson Wuji heard a bitterness in his heart, it seemed that Li Shimin's decision was extremely wise, at least it could satisfy the three elders of Hongnong, but in fact, the eldest grandson Wuji knew that Li Shimin had made a thankless decision, and the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Yuanji would become more tense, and Li Yuan, who was far away in Jinyang, would not actually make any punishment to Li Yuanji, and even blamed Li Shimin, and the news that Li Yuanji had not been punished reached Hongnong, and Hongnong people would only blame Li Shimin. In fact, Li Shimin offended all three people, and this kind of decision is very irrational.

The three elders of Hongnong didn't know the mystery here, their faces suddenly looked much better, they stood up, and arched their hands and said: "Thank you King Qin, I don't know who King Qin is going to send to Hongnong, I will definitely support Da Zhao when I wait for Hongnong." ”

"This? Cheng Fan, you go. You go with Xuan Ling. Li Shimin swept the generals in the big tent, and finally saw a young face, his face suddenly showed joy, and he pointed at him and said.

Li Chengfan Li Daozong is Li Shimin's cousin, he is only seventeen years old this year, and he is extremely brave and followed Li Shimin to conquer Liu Wuzhou not long ago, the key is Li Zhao's family, Li Shimin trusts him, and letting Fang Xuanling follow him can also help Li Daozong grow up quickly and help Li Daozong gain a firm foothold in Hongnong.

"Yes." Li Daozong was very happy, this was the first time he was in charge alone, although it was for him to replace Li Yuanji, there might be some difficulties, but he thought that under Li Shimin's orders, Li Yuanji also had to obey orders.

"When you get to Hongnong, you just need to defend seriously. Don't go out and attack. Li Shimin carefully admonished, he was afraid that Li Daozong would be young and vigorous, and he would be provoked by the enemy, and if he rashly went out to attack, he would be easily fooled, and he would be defeated by Pei Xingjian and lose Hongnong, Li Shimin also believed that once Hongnong was lost, he would face Li Xin's attack, at least, Wang Shichong's resistance would be much stronger.

"Little brother understands." Li Daozong said seriously: "Brother, don't worry, with Daozong here, he will never let Li Xin's soldiers and horses cross Hongnong by half a step." ”

"That's very good." Li Shimin nodded happily and said: "Although Luoyang has some grain and grass, but Luoyang has a large population, and now it is besieged by us, even if there is grain from Nanyang, but Nanyang is still under Li Xin's attack, how much grain can be transported?" This king believes that Luoyang's grain is definitely only half a month, well, at most another month, Luoyang's grain will be exhausted, and at that time, it will be the time to conquer Luoyang. ”

"Obey the orders of the King of Qin."

The generals in the big tent responded loudly, not only Li Shimin, but also the other generals, although everyone was attacking Luoyang, but their minds were on how to resist Li Xin's attack.

"You say that Li Xin really didn't move, this king always feels a little unsteady in his heart, or Li Xin began to slack off after seizing Guanzhong and Bashu, and this king doesn't believe it." After Li Shimin personally sent the three elders away, he looked at the map in front of him and said with some disbelief: "At this time, Li Xin has a lot of things to do, attack Xiangyang, accelerate the speed of Li Jing's capture of Bashu, attack Nanyang, completely seize Nanyang, attack Hongnong, threaten the rear road of our army, and even attack Hedong to force us to withdraw our troops, but Li Xin didn't do anything, the army gathered in Wuguan, Luo Shixin, Wei Chigong and other fierce generals were there, Pei Renji was in Tongguan, Pei Xingjian was in Hongnong, and Su Dingfang and others, These fierce generals didn't make a move, the fierce generals plus tens of thousands of troops, there is no reason to put it aside, just one and Pei Xingjian, I always feel that something is wrong, this Li Xin is like a poisonous snake, he will definitely attack, but I don't know what the direction of his attack is? Not attacking the enemy is the most terrible. ”

In the big tent, Liu Wenjing, Eldest Sun Wuji and Fang Xuanling are all the top strategists in the world, but at this time, in the face of this situation, it is impossible to determine where Li Xin's attack direction is. They all knew that once Li Xin made a move, it would definitely be the most powerful blow.

"What we can do now is to strengthen Hongnong's defense, as long as Hongnong is here, we can take the lead, even if Li Xin wants to attack, he must pass Hongnong's pass." The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Fang Xuanling, and the pressure that Fang Xuanling was about to face must be very heavy.

"Xuan Ling will definitely defend Hongnong, and he will definitely not let Li Xin pass the test." Fang Xuanling said solemnly. (To be continued......)
