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

In Taiyuan County, the Jin water, which used to be rolling and flowing, is now frozen, and the river surface is covered with a layer of ice.

In that year, Zhou Wang Tongye sealed his younger brother, Feng Shuyu was here, and his main opinion saw that the source of Jin water was flowing endlessly, so he changed the country name to Jin, and then became one of the five tyrants of Chunqiu.

Later Jin state minister, Zhao Jianzi's retainer Dong An built a city north of Jinshui. Take the ancient people in the south of the mountain as the yang. Shanbei is yin, Henan is yin, and Hebei is yang. The city built in the north of Jinshui, so it is called Jinyang.

After crossing the Jinshui, the moment they saw the head of Jinyang City, the Youzhou army erupted in cheers from beginning to end. The soldiers all raised their guns and cheered, and the soldiers also took off their fur hats, threw them into the sky, and beat their chests and shouted.

The people and horses are bustling, this is the scene of the Youzhou army entering the city.

Ji Chuan sat in a Confucian shirt, rode on a horse and couldn't help but say sarcastically: "We obviously met a disgraced face in Shangdang County, but this movement seems to make the people of Taiyuan County think that we have won the battle, and there is no better way to calm people's hearts than this." ”

On the side, Xue Wanshu smiled and said, "Brother Ji Chuan, you have always been so mean-spoken, but the army has returned to Jinyang from a fluke, which is indeed worth celebrating." ”

Although the two said so, when they saw the head of Jinyang City, they also looked relieved, and the fierce battle on the waterside of Lushui in the past half month can be described as the most difficult battle since the formation of the Youzhou Army. Now, with the return of the army to Jinyang, the joy in the hearts of the two of them is not inferior to that of ordinary soldiers, but they do not show it on their faces.

Xue Wanshu raised his horsewhip and said: "This time we conquered Shangdang County, crossed the river and fought a bloody battle, the road was blocked by heavy snow, and the chasing soldiers were blocked before and after. The foundation of my Youzhou army is weak, and it starts from a humble beginning, how can it be compared with a high-ranking lord like the Li family in Longxi, and it is not easy to fight to this point. ”

Ji Chuan looked at the gatehouse of Jinyang and said with emotion: "Li Valve swept Guanzhong in half a year, and his prestige is faintly above Pushan Gong, who dares to compete in the world." But this time, we conquered and merged states, not only captured Taiyuan, but also crisscrossed several states east of the river, refuting Li Yuan's face. Didn't Li Tang claim to be about the 200,000 elite soldiers of the Central Government, and that's just the case. ”

"Exactly," Xue Wan said, "given time, the next time our army fights Li Tang again, it will definitely impress." ”

Ji Chuan said: "Then Brother Xue, do you guess that the main force of our army will return to Jinyang, so will Li Shimin continue to go north and come to Jinyang City to fight a decisive battle with our army?" ”

Xue Wanshu thought for a while, and said: "It's not easy to say, although our soldiers and horses are numerous, but the food of Jinyang soldiers is insufficient, when Li Yuan started troops from Jinyang, Pei Lin entered the palace with 500 women, and 90,000 meters, 50,000 miscellaneous colors, and 400,000 collars, the grain and grass in Jinyang Cangcheng, Li Yuan is almost exhausted. Our army of 50,000 or 60,000 horses, if we gather in Jinyang, within two months, the grain will be exhausted. ”

Ji Chuan nodded, Pei Lin was one of the three heroes of the army, Li Yuan reused Pei Lin after entering Chang'an, and this merit was greater than capturing several counties.

Taiyuan Jinyang Palace.

Li Chongjiu returned to the camp, and at this moment the generals who attacked Taiyuan, except for Ying Hefu, the rest of the generals were all in the palace.

"Qi Shanggu Gong, two days ago, Li Shimin broke through the natural danger of the Bird Mouse Valley and subdued Xihe County. Li Shimin divided his troops and ordered Jiang Baoyi, the general of the Right Wuwei, to send troops from Xihe County to leave Shi County. The guards Liu Jizhen and Liu Liu'er did not dare to return to the county to surrender to Tang. ”

"Now there is Li Shimin and Jiang Baoyi's 50,000 Tang army in the southeast of Taiyuan, and there is Princess Pingyang and Li Yuanji's 40,000 army in the southwest." Wen Yanbo reported to Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu nodded and said: "Xihe, away from Shier County, our army is insufficient and cannot be preserved, so it is only right to abandon it decisively." ”

Yan Yelie said with a smile: "Khan, we don't do loss-making transactions, the county treasury and granaries that have been breached have been looted by me and Brother Yinghefu. What's the use of Tang Jun taking a few empty cities, this time, we have gained a lot. ”

Eto also said: "Yes, Khan, we Xi people fight, thousands of miles of grassland, chasing water and grass, where the grass is good, people and horses will rush to where, who is still staying here, I see that the main force of the Tang Army is coming, this Taiyuan County does not have to take it, all the valuable things are in hand, everyone carries things back to Youzhou, it is not very good." ”

Li Chongjiu smiled when he heard this, but did not speak.

At this time, Wen Yanbo said in the foreword: "Shanggu Gong, this is not possible, Taiyuan County is no better than other counties, Zhao State takes this as the capital, controls Taihang in the south, Taiyue, and Yu Qin State, and the Han Dynasty will set up the state assassin department to govern Jinyang, after the Jin Dynasty is destroyed, Er Zhurong, Gao Huan, Gao Yang and his son take this as the overlord, if they abandon it now, they will regret it in the future." ”

Ji Chuan said in the foreword: "Shanggu Gong, if Yu and Guanzhong in Hebei fight for the world, it will focus on the gains and losses of merging states, and Yu will take and merge states, it will be important in Taiyuan County, and Yu will get Taiyuan County, it will be important to focus on Jinyang, although the Tang army is powerful at present, but as long as our army holds a city in Jinyang, it is not impossible to capture and merge states in the future, if the Tang army is allowed to subdue Taiyuan and gain a firm foothold, then it will be difficult to make a comeback in the future." ”

Wei Chigong also said: "Although our army is tired at the moment, the Tang army is not having a good time, not to mention that it is now freezing and snowy, and it is a dream for the Tang army to conquer Taiyuan." ”

Eto, Yan also saw that the generals of the Han army opposed it, and felt that it was boring at the moment, and he didn't speak.

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "According to what you say, stick to the city of Jinyang." ”

"Tell Shanggu Gong, Guanzhong secret report!" A soldier from the Youzhou Assassin Mansion stepped forward to report.

"Read!"

"After the defeat of Xue Ju's father and son in the shallow water plain, they raised 50,000 troops from Tianshui again to attack Ningzhou, and the Tang army general Liu Wenjing and Murong Luohu were defeated, and now Xue Ju's army is extremely powerful, and Guanzhong is shaken!"

Hearing that all the generals were overjoyed, Li Chongjiu thought that in the original history, Xue Ju's father and son had already been cleaned up by Li Shimin at this time, but because he raided Jinyang and the offensive was rapid, he forced Li Yuan to order, and Li Shimin led the main force of Guanzhong to Hedong to meet him.

Now Li Yuan, Li Shimin's father and son are on an expedition, and Xue Ju's father and son are resurrected, and the soldiers are pointing directly at Guanzhong.

Even if Li Shimin didn't want to withdraw this time, he had to withdraw from the army.

At this moment, in the camp of the Tang Army, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh as he looked in the direction of Jinyang City.

The eldest grandson Wuji took Li Yuan's edict asking Li Shimin to withdraw from Taiyuan County, and looked at it repeatedly with the generals. Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Tang Jian and others all whispered in their own voices.

Li Shimin turned his head to look at the generals and said: "Xue Ju's father and son are powerful, Guanzhong is shaken, and even Chang'an City is shocked overnight, do you think our army is going to return south?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said in the first place: "King Qin, our army is now fighting even a battle, Hedong Lu Chongmao, Yao Junsu was destroyed, Shizhou, Jiangzhou, Xizhou, Huzhou have all been subdued, morale is extremely strong, in Luzhou, the princess repelled the Li thief, forced him to flee to Jinyang in a hurry, and now it is the opportunity for the two roads to meet and overcome Jinyang in one fell swoop." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji and his uncle Changsun Shunde died at the hands of Li Chongjiu, so the eldest grandson Wuji has a grit for Li Chongjiu.

"King Qin, I don't think so," it was Tang Jian who spoke, and the other party said: "Taiyuan County is a place where Hu and Han are mixed, the people are fierce, Turkic, Liu Wuzhou, and Li Chongjiu all have the heart to get involved. ”

Hearing this, all the generals are in the sun.

Li Shimin said with a negative hand: "There are 50,000 or 60,000 Youzhou troops in Taiyuan City, even if the city is attacked, our army will not be able to capture it within a month." Now the top priority is Xue Ju's father and son in Longxi, what his father said is right, first stabilize Guanzhong, and then seek the world. ”

At this time, Fang Xuanling stood up and said: "Why should the King of Qin worry, what we have lost at the moment is just a Taiyuan County, as the so-called lost East Couple, Harvest Sangyu, now the King of Hejian County has gone south to capture more than 30 states in Shannan, Bashu has been decided, as long as Chang'an is not lost, why bother with a Taiyuan County." ”

The king of Hejian County is Li Xiaogong, who is Li Yuan's cousin, this time he worshiped as the ambassador of Shannan Zhaowei, and went south to capture Bashu, Lianke more than 30 states, and doubled the territory of the Tang Dynasty at once.

After conquering Bashu, Li Tang's shape can be compared to the Qin State during the Warring States Period. At that time, some people said that Qin was a big bird, and he was in the sea. Standing in the east, the left arm is based on the southwest of Zhao, the right arm fights the Yan and Ying of Chu, and the eagle strikes Han and Wei, which is geographically advantageous, and the wings are drummed and drummed, and the square is three thousand miles.

If Daqin is compared to a big bird, then Hedong and Bashu are the two wings of the big bird, and now the two wings are complete, and Daqin only needs to hold Hangu Pass, that is, it can be attacked and retreated.

This was what Lou Jing said when he offered advice to Liu Bang, although Luoyang was in the middle of the world, there were 70 big battles and 40 small battles, but the Qin land was dangerous, and it was defended on three sides, and the princes were controlled by the east alone.

Everyone listened to Fang Xuanling's analysis, and they were all immediately pleased, there is no doubt that the general trend is now on Li Tang's side.

Although Li Chongjiu has conquered Jinyang and captured Taiyuan County, his impact on Li Tang's general trend is insignificant.

But there are also people on the side who have different opinions, Taiyuan County is the weight of the annexation of the state, and if Taiyuan County is lost, how can the annexation state be called complete, Li Chongjiu occupies Taiyuan County one day, and one day it involves Li Tang's military strength here.

Of course, on this occasion, it is impossible for Li Shimin to return to the military and rescue Guanzhong, and these people will not say it with interest.

After the generals agreed, Li Shimin still looked in the direction of Taiyuan County, showing a trace of regret.

At this time, Fang Xuanling came to Li Shimin's side and said: "King Qin, there is news from Zhongshu Province, Luzhou Assassin Shi Guo Ziwu secretly played, Princess Pingyang did not do her best in the first battle with the Youzhou army, and intentionally connived at it and returned to Jinyang." ”

"Bastard! What did my father say? Li Shimin couldn't help but be furious.

Fang Xuanling said: "After the Son of Heaven saw the recital, he didn't speak, but I heard that the governor of Jiangzhou this time originally meant to belong to Princess Pingyang. ”

Due to the loss of Taiyuan County, Li Yuan planned to remove the Jinyang Prefecture Governor's Office, which should be placed in Jiangzhou, to govern the fifteen prefectures of Jiang, Lu, Gai, Jian, Ze, Qin, Han, Jin, LΓΌ, Hu, Qin, Pu, Yu, Rui, and Shao.

The candidate for the governor of Jiangzhou can be described as a feudal official on Li Tang's side, but there are many people staring at this position. (To be continued.) )
