If Hua and Brother are also a traverser, he will definitely feel that he is as bitter as a mustache and a little devil, the opponent in front of him obviously has no power to fight back, but he can't be even, for the sake of various interests to turn his head to beat the easy to beat, the weak enemy who seems to be able to destroy suddenly becomes extremely tenacious, no matter how he loses, he will not surrender or give in, and then the enemy who was beaten before will be bruised and swollen from the back, and the head and tail will be difficult to care, It seems that the scenery of the successive battles is infinite, but in fact, it is so hard that it can't be harder.

After the Yanshi War in history, because Bing Yuanzhen avenged Zhai Rang and deliberately dedicated Luokou Cangcheng to Wang Shichong, the disheartened Li Mi felt that there was no hope of a comeback, so he simply took the remnants of the defeated army and the remnants of the territory to the old Li family; Now that he was changed by the wings of Chen Fuliang's demon moth, although Li Mi suffered a crushing defeat in the Tongshan War, Luokoucang, the largest granary in the world, is still in Li Mi's hands.

The tenacious Li Mi, of course, suffered the poor Hua and his brother, and spent a lot of effort to create a batch of siege weapons, and couldn't wait to launch an attack on Luokoucang, but the determined Hua and his brother were met with the most tenacious resistance, and the Li Mi army soldiers who were forced to a dead end by Hua and his brother slaughtered the fort one after another, hated the enemy, and did not give an inch, relying on the only advantage of being condescending on the city wall, and withstood the six successive sieges of the Xiaoguo army, although it also paid a heavy price for this, but also brought a lot of casualties to Hua and his brother. Hua and his brother were greatly annoyed by this, and despite the darkness and fatigue of the soldiers, he insisted on refusing to withdraw his troops, and insisted on launching a night battle to continue the siege of the city.

Although the powerful Xiaoguo army was tired, the main force of Li Mi's army defending the city was even more tired, so when it was completely dark, Li Mi's Luokoucang defense line finally began to crumble. However, at this moment, Li Mi suddenly sent a signal to ask for help from the outside, and Li Mi's army, Sun Changle and Gao Jifu, who had been hiding in Glaive City and Black Stone Castle and couldn't shrink out, immediately gave up their lives to attack, and each led three hundred death squads to rush to the back and flanks of his brother.

Hua and his brother also made the mistake of blind command, the death squads of Yanyue City and Black Stone Fort were completely supported by one breath, and as long as the flanks and rear army held up for a while, it was actually easy to kill Li Mijun's death squad with the advantage of equipment and numbers, but Hua and his brother mobilized the army to go separately to meet the battle, and between the army movements, the originally extremely neat formation suddenly revealed flaws.

Next, it was naturally Li Mi's turn to attack the cavalry of the trump card of the inner army, Wang Bodang and Pei Xingyan, two fierce generals, each led three hundred cavalry, and suddenly attacked from the south gate and west gate of Luokoucang, and the soldiers were divided into two ways to impact the flaws exposed after the brother mobilized the army, and as a result, Li Mi armed the cavalry of the inner army at any cost did not disappoint him, and under the cover of the night, he rushed left and right in the formation of the Xiaoguo army, and bravely killed the enemy, although it did not shake the position of Hua and his brother, but it also stirred up a lot of chaos in Hua and his brother's formation, Hua and his brother hurriedly mobilized the army to block and chase, and finally forced Wang Bodang and Pei Xingyan to escape from his battle formation with a total of more than 100 cavalry left, but his formation was already in chaos.

According to the prior agreement, Wang Bodang and Pei Xingyan, who were in the battle formation of Hua and his brothers, did not withdraw to Luokoucang, giving Hua and his brothers the opportunity to take advantage of the situation to enter the city, and chose to withdraw directly to the Tiger Prison Pass, which was thirty miles away, for protection. However, what Li Mi never dreamed of was that the thunderous Hua and his brother actually dispatched a large number of cavalry to chase and kill more than 100 cavalry of Wang Pei's second general, and divided the elite forces in his hands again and again.

The angry Hua and his brother originally wanted to launch the eighth siege again, but Sima Dejiao and Chen Zhiluo and other generals quit, because the soldiers of the Xiaoguo army were thirsty and tired from the morning siege to this day, and they were thirsty and tired, exhausted, and the array was chaotic, and the siege weapons were also consumed, and it was very difficult to attack the city again, so they all asked Hua and his brother to temporarily withdraw their troops and come to attack the city after regrouping. Hua and his brother were also unassertive, and they felt that the generals were reasonable, so they ordered Ming Jin, and under the happy eyes of Li Mijun's soldiers, he collected his troops and returned to the original place.

After Hua and his brother's army retreated, Li Mi, who had been nervous for a whole day, sat on the blood-soaked city wall, and the left and right attendants couldn't support him. If you do it again, I won't be able to bear it! ”

After a night's rest, the news that Yuan Wuda and Xu Hongren had suffered defeat in front of Wang Shichong suddenly came, and Brother Huahe, who was already full of anger for the frustration of the siege, was even more furious, and even turned around to attack Wang Shichong. But this time, even Yuwen Zhihe didn't do it, and persuaded Brother Ji to calm down for the time being, saying that although the second general of Yuan Xu was defeated, there was a city to defend, and there was no big problem in the rear.

Hua He, who is considered a good elder brother, listened to the second brother's construction, did not toss around, and chose to order Yuan Wuda and other generals to hold Jinyong City with all their might, while letting the army replenish the siege equipment, and prepare to launch the siege after a day's rest. However, at the same time, Li Mijun's craftsmen, who had received Wang Shichong's technical support, also made every effort to build more than 30 pine cannons, which were erected at the head of Luokou Cangcheng to prepare for the battle.

The next battle of Luokoucang was naturally more bloody and cruel, but the soldiers of the Xiaoguo army who were frustrated one after another obviously had some morale decline, and the pine cannons suddenly used by Li Mijun also caught the soldiers of the Xiaoguo army off guard again, and the siege momentum was not as good as before, and the morale of Li Mijun was restored, and the confidence gradually returned to him. Under the advantages of the other, although the Xiaoguo army still has the absolute upper hand in the siege battle, it can no longer be like the day before yesterday, often able to rush to the city wall to exert great pressure on Li Mi's army, several sieges were confined under the city wall, the casualties were not small but no achievements, and the next day of the attack was finally in vain.

The successive setbacks naturally hit the prestige of Hua and his brother, and the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army, who were already lacking winter clothes, were full of complaints, and the military heart gradually began to waver, and the generals of the Xiaoguo Army such as Sima Dejiao and Zhao Xingshu finally confirmed again that they had put a stupid pig with no brains in the position of prime minister, and they were even more dissatisfied and distrustful of Hua and his brother. At the same time, at this time, Li Mi, who was able to communicate with Chen Fuliang for a long time in terms of strategy, finally made a move, indirectly the general relationship of Yuwen Army.

Li Mi, who does not have the ability to foresee the historical prophet, may be a cut behind the traverser Chen Fuliang in terms of discord, but it is enough to deal with the general general of the Yuwen army who has grown muscles - a very simple messenger to go out of the city, a very simple letter to Sima Dejia, a very simple flattery and a sycophant, persuading Sima Dejiao to kill the incompetent and useless Hua He brother, and join forces with Mi Gong to divide the world equally, and then no matter whether this letter can be delivered to Sima Dejia's hands or not, Mi Gong's purpose has been achieved.

Of course, Mi Gong didn't know that in history, Hua and his brother and Sima Dejiao had fallen in love and killed each other, and Mi Gong only learned from the prisoner's interrogation that the main army was led by Sima Dejia when the Jiangdu mutiny, and Hua and his brother were raised to a high position by Sima Dejia and a group of generals of the Xiaoguo Army.

Although his messenger failed to deliver the letter to Sima Deji's hands, he had already been taken down by the scouts of the Xiaoguo Army on the way, and even sent the letter to Hua and his brother, but after Hua and his brother saw the letter, he immediately became suspicious and worried about Sima Deji, for fear that he could not stop this time and not next time, sooner or later, one day he would be tempted by Sima Deji, who was holding the military power seal, and he was afraid of Sima Deji's military power and prestige, and Hua and his brother pondered carefully. simply used the excuse that Jin Yongcheng was in an emergency, and asked Sima Dejiao to lead 5,000 troops back to Jin Yongcheng, and gradually deprived Sima Dejiao of his military power in his hands.

Of course, Sima Dejie argued with Hua and his brother about this matter, and the reason was, of course, that although Jin Yongcheng was defeated, he was not in a hurry, and there was no need to return to the army to help defend it, but Hua and his brother were more suspicious, and forced Sima Dejiao to leave the front line of Luokoucang. In the end, the thin arms could not twist the thick thighs, and Sima Dejiao, who was controlled by others, led the army back to Jinyong City with a stomach full of fire, and filled his chest with resentment against Hua and his brother, and Hua and his brother's subordinates were therefore self-defeating, not to mention that Zhao Xingshu, Li Ben and other generals who were kind to Sima Dejia were also greatly dissatisfied, and the generals were more centrifuged, and their morale declined even more.

It took a lot of effort to find out this result, and Li Mi was overjoyed to reward Wang Xuance, and then smirked and said: "My father really overestimated his Yu culture and puppetry, I couldn't imagine that such a simple trick could make him bend his arms and mess with the army's heart, such an incompetent person, even if he gave him a million heroes, he was actually not afraid!" The alliance between this prince and Wang Shichong is enough to defeat this thief! ”

"Wei Gong, you can't be too optimistic for the time being." Chai Xiaohe, who also won Li Mi's love and trust, said respectfully: "Yu Wenhua and although incompetent, he is strong and strong after all, and the military is strong, we join forces with Wang Shichong, and we are still inferior to him in terms of strength. In the opinion of the following officials, it is best to try our best to pull Chen Yingliang into the battlefield and let him share part of the pressure for us, so that we can truly sit back and relax. ”

Hearing the name of his nemesis Chen Fuliang, the smile on Li Mihei's face quickly disappeared, and he nodded and said, "Yes, if we can pull Chen Yingliang's traitor into the battlefield at this time, we can have a safe chance of winning." But this traitor can't have such a good intention to send troops now, he will only find all kinds of excuses to delay and prevaricate, and if we don't exhaust ourselves with Yu Wenhua and Pifu, he won't make a move. ”

"Duke Wei is talented, can't you think of some way to lure him Chen Yingliang and traitors to send troops?" Chai Xiaohe asked.

"That's so easy, it's harder to get that traitor to fall for it than to ascend to the sky." Li Mi snorted heavily, and after thinking for a while, Li Mi said again: "But I have to try anyway, I will send him a letter to Chen Yingliang and the traitor, saying that I am about to be unable to support it, if he does not send troops to help, I can only give up Luokoucang and withdraw to the Tiger Prison Pass, to see what his attitude is." ”

"Wei Gong's clever plan." Chai Xiaohe said happily: "Yu Wenhua and if he takes Luokoucang, it will become Chen Yingliang's henchman, even if Chen Thief does not send the main force, how can he send a partial division to share some pressure with us, as long as he sends troops, we will have the opportunity to lead the water to the west, so that Yu Wenhua and the puppet will find trouble for him." ”

Li Mi nodded and snorted: "Chen thief is treacherous, although he will not be in the middle of the scheme, but Yu Wenhua and Pifu are also a heavy threat to him after all, this time, I will see if he dares to bet that our army will take the initiative to give up Luokoucang, so that Yu Wenhua and the battlefield in the Eastern Capital will gain a firm foothold!" ”

"In that case, why didn't Duke Wei add a paragraph to the letter asking for help?" Chai Xiaohe said: "Let's just say that Yu Wenhua and Pifu sent an envoy to mention yì, asking for the exchange of Liyang Cang for Luokou Cang, and allowing us to take away some of the Luokou Cang grain, Wei Gong, because of the righteousness of the alliance, categorically refused." ”

Li Mi smiled again, and said vigorously: "You can add this one." ”

…………

It's time to take a look at the situation on Chen Fuliang's side, the current Chen Fuliang has indeed not sent troops to the Dongdu battlefield, but Chen Fuliang is paying attention to the development of the situation in the Dongdu battlefield every day, from Hangu Pass to Luokoucang On the official road, there are post guards with red flags on their backs every day, and they report the changes in the military situation in the Dongdu battlefield every day, and at the same time, for the sake of prudence, Chen Fuliang also asked He Yanyu and Yao Yi to prepare carrier pigeons that can fly directly to Daxing in Hangu Pass, ready to use carrier pigeons at critical moments to report emergencies.

But this is still far from enough, Hangu Pass is still some distance away from the Eastern Capital and Luokoucang after all, and the scout Xizuo also has to risk being discovered by the enemy to reconnoiter the enemy's situation and spread the news, Chen Fuliang usually can only receive the Dongdu Military Intelligence Report five or six days ago every day, and it is even more difficult and time-consuming to receive the Military Intelligence Tang Report about Luokoucang, so not only Chen Fuliang is worried about this, but the accomplice staff officers led by Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng are also worried, for fear that one of Wang Shichong and Li Mi will have something missing, Let Yu Wenhua and success gain a firm foothold in the battlefield of the Eastern Capital, and then Yan zhòng threatens Chen Fuliang's interests outside the border.

Again, although Brother Hua Ji is incompetent, the army under his command is too powerful, and if he goes all out to the west, even if Chen Fuliang can block him with his geographical advantages, he will have to spend countless time and strength to cheapen other enemies in vain. Therefore, as early as when he was stationed in Jinyong City, a voice sounded in the Daxing court of Chen Fuliang's control of zhì, and Chen Fuliang sent troops to Yu Wenhua and put pressure on him, and shared some pressure for Wang Shichong and Li Mi, lest they be defeated by Hua and his brother, and could not complete the sacred and glorious task of losing and losing for Chen Fuliang.

Chen Fuliang also considered more than once sending a partial division to the east to take over the two cities of Michi and Xin'an, which had been abandoned by Li Mi's army, to some extent to exert some pressure on Hua and his brother, but doing so undoubtedly had the danger of provoking fire, and the cunning Wang Shichong and Li Mi would never miss this God-given opportunity to lead to the west, so Chen Fuliang dispelled this idea every time, and still ignored it.

Fortunately, with the secret help of the inner line, Chen Fuliang got his wish and let Wang Shichong and Li Mi reach an alliance, allowing them to join forces to contain and consume the Xiaoguo Army for themselves, but the danger was only slightly reduced, and the Xiaoguo Army, which was mostly advancing eastward in the main force, still had the possibility of taking Luokoucang to gain a foothold, and turned around and marched to Guanzhong when the soldiers were full of food. Therefore, Chen Fuliang had to think about sending a partial division into Michi Xin'an again, to contain Hua and his brother a little, and also to give Li Mi and Wang Shi a strong courage, and encourage them to continue to consume Hua and his brother's strength for themselves.

When discussing with a cadre of staff and cronies, Chen Fuliang pointed out with concern that once the army marched into the eastern capital and was too close to Hua and his brother, Wang Shichong and Li Mi, two shameless villains, would instigate Hua and his brother to send troops to the west at any cost to fight with his own forwards, and then it was even possible to connive and directly turn his brother to the west to fight Guanzhong Daxing. So Chen Fuliang finally concluded: "In order to prevent accidents, and for the convenience of our future dispatch of troops to grab the results of the war, we should send a forward army to Mianchi Xin'an, and take down the entire Cuihan Road to ensure that we will enter the army in the future, but our forwards must not directly engage with the Xiaoguo army, and lead Yu Wenhua and this mad dog to bite us indiscriminately." ”

"If the prime minister wants the horse to run, but also wants the horse not to eat grass, it is not impossible." Du Ruhui smiled bitterly and said: "If the prime minister can pull down his face and don't care about fame and righteousness, as long as he sends an envoy to ask for joining forces with Yu Wenhua, there will never be such a ......thing." ”

Du Ruhui closed his mouth before he finished speaking, because he knew very well that Chen Fuliang, the number one hypocrite of the Great Sui, would definitely not adopt this idea, and Chen Fuliang also smiled bitterly and said: "Keming, it's rare to hear you come up with a bad idea." If I do such a thing, the people of the world will not immediately poke my backbone with their fingers? ”

Du Ruhui smiled embarrassedly, closed his mouth tighter, and Sun Fujia, who had gradually been taken away by Chen Fuliang, was thoughtful, and said: "The prime minister really can't do this, but the generals we sent to take over Mianchi Xin'an can do this, if we arrange for the forward generals to make peace with Yu Wenhua and Yan in private, and secretly conclude a peace treaty of mutual non-aggression, then wouldn't it not only give Wang Shichong and Li Mi courage, but also take the strategic place of Cuihandao in one fell swoop, and don't have to worry about Yu Wenhua and sending troops to fight us?" ”

"The idea is a good idea." Chen Fuliang smiled bitterly and said, "But who is not afraid of this infamy? Even if someone is not afraid of being infamous, how can he make Yu Wenhua believe that we really won't stab him at a critical moment? No matter how Wang Shichong and Li Mi fanned the flames, they would not attack our army? Where do such people go up ......? ”

Before he finished speaking, Chen Fuliang suddenly shook his head and blurted out, "Huh? ”

"Huh?" Fang Xuanling also suddenly lost his mind and exclaimed.

"Huh?!" Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng spoke in unison, and at the same time let out a sound of surprise.

Then, Chen Fuliang, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng said in unison and blurted out: "Why did we forget him? Send him to lead the army to rob the strategic place of Kui Handao, let him come forward to privately conclude a peace treaty with Yu Wenhua and agree not to go to war with each other, Wang Shichong and Li Mi just knelt down to kowtow to Yu Wenhua and begged, Yu Wenhua and will not start a war with him! ”

"Prime Minister, a few scholars, who are you talking about?" Sun Fujia asked confusedly: "In Daxing City, can there be such a person?" Such a scolding thing, can he pull down his face to do it? ”

"He can definitely pull this face!" Chen Fuliang, Fang Xuanling and others replied in unison.

After that, Chen Fuliang also took the case and said loudly and categorically: "Fu Jia, immediately send a letter to Wang Shichong and Li Mi for me, just say that Xue Ju and Li Liang colluded to peep into Guanzhong, and the main force of our army cannot go east to the east for the time being, but the righteousness of the alliance cannot be lost, and the love of Weng and son-in-law cannot be forgotten!" Our forward army, within ten days, will inevitably go out of Cuihan Road and enter Xin'an City to contain Yu Wenhua and share the pressure for them! ”
