Ji Chuan also agreed with Xue Wanshu's opinion, he said: "The Tang army blocked the Tiger Prison Pass, which is equivalent to cutting off the road to the east of Luoyang. ”
Judging from the map, the three cities of Heyang in the north of Luoyang, Mengjindu, the Tiger Prison Pass and the Revolving Gate Pass in the east, the Xuanyuan Pass in the southeast, the Yique Pass in the south, Xiangyang, and the Longmen in the southwest, including the Tongguan Pass in the west, all fell into the hands of Li Tang.
Luoyang has truly severed relations with the outside world and is under siege by Li Tang. If we want to continue to advance westward, it is very severe to attack the tiger prison shape shì and our army, Luoyang is already a lonely city, so our army might as well avoid the real and go to the void, wave the army to the north, march along Hanoi, go straight to the party, Taihang, and then use heavy troops to Pujindu, to create a shape to enter the pass in a big way, maybe we can surround Wei to save Zhao, to rescue the siege of Luoyang. Even if we can't save Luoyang, our army can collect all the land in Hanoi, expand the land and collect the people, and then compete with Li Tang in the future.
Ji Chuan said this, with the consent of many generals of the Zhao army, Li Tang's general stationed in Hanoi was Li Shentong, and his Hanoi army had not yet recovered after the Yu culture and the destruction of the attack. And Li Zhiwan, who was supposed to replace Li Shentong as the general of the Hanoi Army, had an accident.
Director Li Tang is now in Hanoi The command system is chaotic, so this plan is the least risky for Zhao Guo, and he can make a profit, so why not.
Li Chongjiu remembered that in history, at the same juncture as he was, Dou Jiande's military advisor Ling Jing also said this to Dou Jiande. However, Dou Jiande's subordinates were bribed by Wang Shichong's people and opposed his opinions, and as a result, they insisted on enterprising the Tiger Prison, but they were outside the Tiger Prison. There is no way for more than 100,000 Xia troops to take the Tiger Prison Pass garrisoned by Li Tang's elite soldiers.
In the end, Li Shimin cut off Dou Jiande's grain road, and then succeeded in counterattacking under the Tiger Prison.
History is a reference to the past. Whether Li Chongjiu will follow the old Dou Jiande Road, or take another route.
Listen to what Himekawa said. Du Yan and the others Wang Shichong's advisers all wept and said: "If Your Majesty wields the army to Hedong, Zheng Guo will die." ”
The generals all sighed secretly when they heard it, with the current situation in Luoyang, it is really difficult to say, how long it can last, maybe dozens of days, maybe tomorrow.
However, everyone knows that Li Chongjiu is really benevolent and righteous. At the beginning, three conditions were prescribed to Du Yan, but Zheng Guo did not meet any of them, and now even if Li Chongjiu does not save the tiger prison, it is reasonable.
After all, Zhao Jun did his best.
Zheng Guo's envoys fell silent, waiting for Li Chongjiu's final decision.
Li Chongjiu said abruptly: "When you lost the Tiger Prison Pass, I already had a premonition. The soldiers are calculated in the temple, and the temple is calculated to win more, and it was expected that our army could not grasp more than forty percent according to the Tiger Prison Pass, and it was not captured at present. It's not unexpected. ”
"Then if we lose the Tiger Prison Pass, where should our army go?" Himekawa asked.
Li Chongjiu did not speak, from the current strategic situation, he has three bright advantages over Dou Jiande's Xia army in history.
First, although the Xia army that attacked the Tiger Prison Pass in history had more than 100,000 people. It is claimed to be 300,000, but most of the soldiers and horses are armed by the rebels, although they have experienced many major battles. But the training is poor, and Dou Jiande is new to Hebei. After winning consecutive battles, the army is arrogant and lazy.
Although Li Chongjiu's men and horses were less than 100,000, they all experienced wars, and the soldiers under his command were all standing armies, and they were well-trained, which was not inferior to Li Tang's Guanzhong army.
Second, the current strategic situation of the Zhao army is also stronger than Dou Jiande, at that time, Yu Wenhua was destroyed by Li Shentong, Wei County, Ji County were in the hands of Li Tang, Dou Jiande just defeated Li Shentong and captured Liyang, but now Li Chongjiu first destroyed Xu Guo, Wei, and Ji Er County in hand.
The starting point of such an attack on Hanoi is much closer, and it is also very beneficial to cover the grain route from Liyang to the Tiger Pass. Dou Jiande was too long on the front back then, and he was attacked on the grain road, and the army was in turmoil.
The third is that Li Shimin is in a bad situation now, and under Li Chongjiu's counter-plot, the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji's father and son is already in jeopardy. The questioning of the generals who went out on the expedition was bound to affect the morale of the Tang Army to some extent.
On the other hand, in the Zhao State, Li Chongjiu has always been a unified government, as the emperor personally led the troops to fight, and the whole army bowed down to him. In the state of Zhao, there will never be a situation of discord between the emperor and the generals.
In addition, Li Chongjiu also had two advantages that were not on the table, which Li Tang could not detect for the time being, and even most of the ministers and generals of Zhao State did not know for the time being.
Li Chongjiu said: "I have decided to order Xu Shiji and Wang Mahan to lead 20,000 horses along the Yellow River to attack Hanoi, while the rest of the army will land at Baimadu and send troops to the Tiger Prison!" ”
Wang Shichong and his party showed a look of surprise, and the generals of the Zhao army were all surprised, thinking that after listening to Ji Chuan's words, Li Chongjiu would change his strategy, but he didn't expect to send troops to the tiger prison.
Li Chongjiu couldn't help but think of Dou Jiande, who was far away from house arrest, and thought to himself, Dou Jiande, Dou Jiande, I didn't expect that I still made the same choice as you back then, but I don't know how this time?
February 11.
Spring is still late, and the north and south of the Yellow River are still cold. The main force of 60,000 Zhao troops landed at Baimadu, and 10,000 sailors drove more than 300 warships, boated to transport grain, and traced the river to the west, showing a trend of waterways side by side.
When Li Chongjiu was in Qi County, Yu Shinan wrote the second letter to discuss Tang Yuwen, saying that Li Yuan's ancestor was an unknown name in Zhao County, and after the cold door, he had no Yide, and he stole the Li family in Longxi and claimed to be attached to the lintel. The two generations of the first Sui Dynasty were not humble to Li Yuan's father and son, but entrusted with great weapons. However, Li Yuan was entrusted with the important task of staying in Taiyuan by the old favor of the previous dynasty, but he failed to live up to the grace of heaven and raised troops against the Sui.
After Li Yuan became the lord of Chang'an, the strong ministers and the weak lords, the young emperor, the dark strong ministers and the weak lords, with Cao Cao, Sima Yi's heart, Zhao Gao, Wang Mang's truth.
Shilin is angry, and the people are full of grievances; One husband and one man, the state is in unison. Now Dazhao gathered 500,000 troops from the 6th army of the water to fight the Tang Dynasty, hoping that the officials and people of various states would gather under the banner of righteousness.
After Li Chongjiu passed on to the world, Wang Shichong's younger brother Xuzhou Xingtai Wang Shifang sent the general Guo Shiheng to lead an army of 10,000 to join Li Chongjiu, and Wang Bo led 10,000 Qi soldiers to join the army of the crusade against Zhao.
Guo Shi'an, the assassin of Guanzhou, who originally subdued Li Tang, learned that Li Chongjiu's army was approaching, and asked for help in the direction of Tiger Pass, hoping that Li Shimin could send troops and horses to rescue.
But when Li Tang's reinforcements just came out of the Tiger Prison Pass, Guanzhou had been broken by Luo Shixin, the forward under Li Chongjiu.
At the same time, Xu Shiji, Wang Mahan's 20,000 horses engaged the Tang army's Li Shentong division in Hanoi, and Li Shentong's department was broken by Su Dingfang, the general of the Xia army.
Zhao's aid to Zheng was huge, and he won consecutive battles, and the news suddenly spread to Guanzhong.
In the Li Tang Palace in Chang'an.
When Li Yuan took Li Chongjiu to discuss Tang Yuwen, there was a chill smile on his face, especially when he saw Li Yuan's ancestor Ben Zhao Jun Anonymous, after the cold door, there was no Yide, and he stole the Li family in Longxi and claimed to be behind the lintel. The entire piece of paper was twisted in Li Yuan's hands. Li Yuan sneered: "The vertical son actually insulted me, my ancestor Li Yuan is an unknown clan, what about you?" Zhongshan Li is simply nonsense. ”
"Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body!" Pei Lin hurriedly said.
Li Yuan stood up and said, "I'm fine, this person is just a verbal reckless, I will let him know that even if some people jump for a while, they won't last long." This person is narrow-minded, and it seems that he still remembers the refusal to marry at the beginning. ”
Pei Lin saw Li Yuan say this, and he also sighed, if Li Chongjiu is a force that is impossible to compare with Li Tang, why should Li Yuan be angry, and Li Yuan is so angry now, it can only be said that Datang really has no certainty of winning Zhao Guo now.
"Now the King of Qin has captured the Tiger Prison to plug the gap, but after Wang Shichong learned that the King of Qin left, he sent the generals Shan Xiongxin and Yang Gongqing out of the city to fight, and the King of Qi suffered a defeat under the city, and the governor Lu Jun was stunned and died! The king of Qi begged the king of Qin to withdraw his troops, but the king of Qin refused, and the king of Qi and Qu Tutong asked for relief from the siege of Luoyang, and the king of Qin refused to defend it. Here is the twist and turn of the King of Qi, impeaching the King of Qin for eight crimes such as supporting the army and self-respect. ”
"Feng Aiqing, you are in the Luoyang Army, what do you think?"
Feng Deyi said: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin wants to fight and make a full success, not only to break through Luoyang, but also to defeat the Zhao army outside the Tiger Prison Pass, and capture Li Chongjiu alive. ”
"However, His Royal Highness the King of Qi also said very reasonably, our army has captured more than 60 states of Wang Shichong, and most of its land has been surrendered to our land, even if Wang Shichong can survive this battle, it is only thinner than Wang, Xu Yuanlang, Meng Haigong and others are slightly stronger, it is enough to receive it when it is good, and it will be slowly drawn in the future, but in one to two years, the land of Luoyang can be taken in the palm of your hand."
Feng Deyi's words were ambiguous, and Pei Lin took over and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has a saying, I don't know if I can say it?" ”
Li Yuan said: "Pei Qing, you and I are ordinary monarchs and ministers, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Pei Lin said: "That Weichen is bold and outspoken, as Brother Feng said, I think King Qin wants to make contributions in a war, not for the sake of the country's society, but for his own fame and merit." ”
Speaking of this, Li Yuan and Feng Deyi were shocked.
Feng Deyi scolded secretly, and said in his heart that he was originally between the prince of Qin, but Pei Lian's words were like helping the prince say bad things about the king of Qin just now.
And Li Yuan understands what Pei Lin means, Li Shimin wants to take advantage of his position as the commander-in-chief to defeat Li Chongjiu and Wang Shichong in a battle, sweep away Hebei, and make immortal feats, but if he retires now, the great merit of defeating Zheng in the future may not fall into his hands, let alone Li Chongjiu, who is in Youyan.
This is to be a high meritorious, and it is unknown whether it will shock Li Jiancheng or Li Yuan.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Jieyu asks to see!"
Li Yuan didn't express and said: "I am discussing national affairs, what is she doing when she comes in?" ”
"It seems to have something to do with His Royal Highness King Qin!"
Pei Lian, Feng Deyi saw the opportunity to know that it was Li Yuan's family matter and retired immediately, and after Zhang Jieyu entered the palace, she cried to Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, you want to be the master of your concubine?" ”
Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu were Li Yuan's favorite concubines in his later years, seeing him crying to himself, Li Yuan said gently: "Ai Concubine, what's the matter?" ”
Zhang Jieyu said: "There are dozens of hectares of fertile land outside Luoyang City, which are the ancestral property of my family, but I heard that the King of Qin has not yet conquered Luoyang, so he privately transferred these dozens of hectares of land to Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an. Ask Your Majesty to be the master of the concubine! ”
Li Yuan was furious when he heard this. (To be continued......)
