"Little brother, I still want to thank you!" Cheng Yanjin was in the Linzi lobby, his face was full of smiles, and he patted the shoulders of the two soldiers with a smile and said. One of them is the captain of the city gate, and the other is a soldier with a horse's face from the living, and he is also the guy who was ready to let Cheng bite the gold in the first place. Both of them were lucky to survive the battle.

"General Cheng, but you killed the villain." The captain of the city gate smiled bitterly.

"Now that Linzi has been occupied by my Datang, what does it mean to kill you." Qi Yanfei said dissatisfiedly: "If it were according to ordinary people, you, the captain of the city gate, would have been killed by us during the battle a long time ago, and it was General Cheng who let us spare your life." ”

"Humph! Sooner or later, those who are the Lord will be punished. A cold snort came, but it was Cui Mingan who was standing there with his hands tightly tied, with an angry look on his face.

"Cui Min is a member of the Cui family, speaking of which, he is also from the same clan as our Cui Yuan and Cui Xiu, but the things they do are different." Cheng Yanjin laughed, looked at Cui Mingan and said, "I know that you families don't look down on us people, I heard that your Qinghe and Boling Cui families have already expelled Master Cui from the clan." It's a pity, after a while, I'm afraid you're going to use the eight-lift sedan chair to invite Master Cui back. ”

Cui Min snorted coldly and said, "Even if you occupy Linzi, don't forget, this is Shandong, and it is impossible for Li Xin to establish a foothold in Shandong." ”

"Yes, your grain and grass are for Li Shimin, and more than 100,000 people in Shandong are counting on Linzi's grain and grass! Now that we have seized these grains and grasses, I don't know what Li Shimin eats? Cheng Yanjin said proudly: "My old Cheng has been holding back in the mountains for nearly a month, and he hasn't even had a good New Year, in order to seize Linzi today." Hehe, it's just that Master Cui is stupid. Otherwise, where would it be my turn to take such a credit. ”

Cui Mingan sighed after hearing this, although he didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that Cheng Biting Jin's boldness had made it what it is today, no one would have thought that a madman would rush out of the Yimeng Mountains at this time and launch an attack on Linzi City, are there many defenders in Linzi? Actually, there aren't many, just a few thousand. But in the face of a tiger and wolf division like Cheng Yanjin, he is not his opponent at all.

Although Cheng Biting Jin's team is composed of Shandong Green Forest Road, such a long time of fighting has turned them into a division of tigers and wolves, and the attack on Linzi is to avenge the dead soldiers, these people are not fighting bloodily, coupled with Cui Mingan's carelessness, the loss of Linzi City has become expected.

"King Qin will not let Linzi fall into your hands so easily." Cui Mingan still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, that is, Li Shimin can recapture Linzi. Save yourself.

"Don't worry about Li Shimin, you still worry about yourself!" Cheng Yanjin waved his hand, and asked Cui Mingan to be pressed down, and he had to write a letter to Li Xin. Report the seizure of Linzi, the whole Shandong is a game of chess, and the capture of Linzi by yourself is equivalent to flowering in the middle, and the rest is to hold Linzi. If Li Shimin's grain and grass are cut off, then don't come forward with the rest of the things yourself, and the great work is to get it properly.

"King Qin. Will definitely come to my rescue. Cui Mingan can only think like this at this time.

Cheng Yanjin waved his hand disdainfully, and asked Cui Mingan to take him down, he was not qualified to deal with such an official, so he could only hand it over to Li Xin. However, it can be seen that Cui Mingan may not be able to return to the Tang Dynasty in a short time, and the family has always been like this.

Cheng Yanjin stood in the lobby by himself, looked around with a smile and said: "Tell the brothers, defend carefully, we occupy Linzi, it is a great achievement, and when Your Majesty captures Shandong, there will definitely be a reward." ”

"Yes." Qi Yanfei and the others nodded one after another, with a happy look on their faces, it was just as Cheng Yanjin said, Li Xin was very generous to people, and he was loyal to this family, and Li Xin was not stingy with rewards.

It's just that what Cheng Yanjin didn't expect was that it was not only him Cheng Yanjin who made great contributions, but also one person, that is, Kan Ling, who followed Du Fuwei's side, in the last years of the previous dynasty, a fierce general who crossed the Jianghuai, after joining the camp of the Tang Dynasty, did not make a special contribution, this time, Qin Qiong finally gave him a chance, and he is also a person who is good at seizing opportunities.

He is already outside Dengzhou City at the moment, although he does not occupy Dengzhou, but he blocks the road of Dengzhou City to transport grain and grass, and there are not many soldiers and horses in Dengzhou, but there are only 3,000 people. Originally, many soldiers and horses, because Qin Qiong landed in Ju County, the army gathered around Ju County, in order to resist Qin Qiong, but Dengzhou became a place to hoard grain and grass.

Now such a bad result has finally appeared, Kan Ling killed from the sea, directly into Dengzhou, if it was not for the daytime to Dengzhou Port, I am afraid that Dengzhou may also be captured by Kan Leng.

It's just that although it was not captured, Dengzhou City was also closed and not allowed to enter and exit, and it basically became a lonely city.

"Haha, yes, yes!" By the Daqing River, Li Xin had already crossed the south bank of the Daqing River, entered the north bank of the Daqing River, looked at the letter from Cheng Biting Jin, immediately laughed, looked around left and right, and said: "Cheng Biting Jin, that kid was not careful, he actually occupied Linzi, seized Linzi's grain and grass, and captured Cui Mingan, this is a great achievement!" ”

The surrounding Chu Suiliang and Pei Renji and others did not expect Cheng Yanjin to seize Linzi, thinking that he did not play a chapter some time ago, presumably on the way to the army, although Pei Renji still looked down on Cheng Yanjin at this time, but he also had to admit that Cheng Yanjin's action this time, Mo said that it was Cui Mingan, even he did not expect it.

"It's still Chu Qing who understands Zhijie! Look at it, after seizing Linzi in one breath, Li Shimin is afraid that he will be so angry that he will jump to his feet. Li Xin raised the letter in his hand, and said with a smile: "With Linzi, it is equivalent to flowering in the middle of Shandong, losing Linzi, Xu Shiji's grain and grass in front of me may also be difficult, not long after, Xu Shiji had to get out of the way, let Qin Qiong go north, it seems that the day of the decisive battle is coming, who is in Shandong, just look at the battle." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, after the First World War, Shandong has since fallen into the hands of my Tang Dynasty." Chu Suiliang arched his hand and said.

"Things are not so simple, Li Shimin is not so easy to get along with." Li Xin shook his head and said, "Even if his food and grass are cut off, he will not necessarily retreat." ”

"General Su Dingfang is attacking Taiyuan, and he may be able to force Li Shimin to withdraw his troops." Chu Suiliang thought for a while and said: "You can spread rumors, just say that Taiyuan has been lost, Hou Junji has returned to His Majesty, Li Shimin is panicked, maybe he will retreat." ”

"Li Shimin's most trusted are Fang Xuanling and Hou Junji, they must be daily correspondence, and Taiyuan City is high and deep, it is the old nest operated by Li Yuan back then, and it is almost impossible for that place to be lost." Li Xin shook his head and said: "Li Shimin will not believe that Su Dingfang can break through Taiyuan, but although he is sitting in Dongping, there are also some grain and grass in Yanzhou City, and now Linzi has fallen into my hands, his grain and grass can only be supplied by Yanzhou and Dengzhou, and when Xu Shiji returns to Dongping, the supply of grain and grass is very difficult." ”

"Your Majesty, Dengzhou urgent."

At this time, Shen Qianqiu broke in, looked surprised, and said: "General Kan Ling came to play a chapter, saying that he had arrived at Dengzhou City, blocked Dengzhou City, and soon, he would definitely be able to capture Dengzhou." ”

"Kan Ling arrived in Dengzhou City?" Li Xin snatched the letter in Shen Qianqiu's hand in surprise, opened it and took a look, and sure enough, it was written how Kan Ling set off from Ju County, how to seize Dengzhou Port, how to besiege Dengzhou, and wrote his next move very clearly.

"Tsk, Li Shimin is probably going to be anxious now, Kan Ling actually besieged Dengzhou, does he still have grain and grass to come out?" Li Xin patted the letter in his hand and said to Chu Suiliang and Pei Renji: "Look, this Dengzhou will be ours soon, and Li Shimin only has one Dongping in his hands, what qualifications does he have to fight with me." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." Everyone also showed surprise, Qin Qiong didn't react for a while, he was treated by Li Shimin and Xu Shiji as Ju County, originally thought that Qin Qiong would once again show his style and forcibly attack Xu Shiji's camp. Unexpectedly, Qin Qiong made a detour, landed in Dengzhou from the sea, captured Dengzhou Port in one fell swoop, and besieged Dengzhou.

"Quickly spread the news to the three armies, so that the officers and men of the three armies will rejoice together. Then the letter was shot into the city, and Li Shimin was also happy with us. Li Xin said with a smile.

Chu Suiliang laughed dumbly, he didn't expect Li Xin to use this method to attack his enemy. It's hard to figure out that Li Shimin also knows about this at the moment, but he will definitely not spread the news, and the loss of Linzi and Dengzhou will definitely be a blow to the morale of the army.

"Your Majesty can let General Qin Qiong drag Xu Shiji, Xu Shiji doesn't have many soldiers and horses in his hands, if he can defeat Xu Shiji, the soldiers and horses in Li Shimin's hands will definitely not be able to resist the attack of the army. Xu Shiji has no food in his hands, and he must not be able to support it for long. Pei Renji said with a smile.

"Well, I believe that Qin Qiong will handle this matter well, tell Qin Qiong about this news, and Qin Qiong will make his best judgment." Li Xin said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is very true." Pei Renji sighed in his heart, in fact, he really wanted to replace Qin Qiong and deal with Xu Shiji. It's a pity that Li believes in Qin Qiong more. This also made him helpless, just said something against his will. (To be continued.) )
