The camp of the Tang Army next to Lushui.

A huge sand table, Li Yuanji and Guo Ziwu are discussing how to deal with the Youzhou army.

The two talked and laughed happily, and it was obvious that the two had established a good friendship in the first battle yesterday.

The two of them had more than 10,000 horses and Li Chongjiu's less than 5,000 men and horses, and they fought for a long time without distinguishing between victory and defeat, and successively sat and watched Wang Xingmin, Yin Kaishan's whole army was defeated, and Yin Kaishan was killed in battle, but the two were safe.

Guo Ziwu was worried in his heart, for fear that Li Yuan would be angry, so he tried to curry favor with Li Yuanji, and wanted to climb the big tree of King Qi to avoid this crime.

Li Yuanji was also satisfied with Guo Ziwu, the official of this side of the frontier, not to mention that Yin Kaishan was dead, and this eye-catching person was eliminated by Li Chongjiu, which made him even more happy.

Li Zhiwan sat in a chair, untied her head pocket and placed it on the desk, green silk like a waterfall.

Guo Ziwu secretly said to himself, how can this King Qi be so easy to fool, compared to His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and his sister, it is really a big difference. Guo Ziwu glanced at Li Zhiwan, quickly retracted his gaze, and continued to flatter Li Yuanji.

At this time, the former army general entered the inner palace and reported: "There is a holy decree! ”

At that moment, the incense case was immediately placed in the tent, and the eunuch said to Li Zhi with a smile: "Your Majesty has a life, Her Royal Highness Princess Yan must be tired from running around on horseback, so you don't have to kneel down, just stand and listen to the announcement." ”

Li Zhi said politely: "Thank you, Father." ”

After speaking, the eunuch said: "Your Majesty has a will, Princess Pingyang, King Qi, and Guo Tingshi will listen to the announcement together!" ”

“…… Char is equal to the Luzhou River bank to break the Li thief, very pleased...... However, the thief of Youzhou jumped out of the beam, and I will be killed...... Order Princess Pingyang to lead the army, King Qi as the supervisor of the army, on the bank of the Lushui River, intercept Youzhou Li Chongjiu to return to the north, and cooperate with His Royal Highness the King of Qin to enter the army, there must be no mistake. ”

Li Zhiwan listened to a slight flick of her wrist, but still said calmly: "The son of the minister has the order." ”

The eunuch put the holy decree in Li Zhiwan's hand, and whispered to Li Zhiwan with a smile on his face, saying: "Your Royal Highness the princess, there are a few thoughtful words on the saint that say that this is to determine Li Tang's qi to fight a battle, and please ask the princess to give priority to Li Tang's national fortune." ”

Li Zhiwan listened and said lightly: "I understand, is there anything else to do with my father-in-law?" ”

Seeing Li Zhiwan's cold expression, the eunuch hurriedly retired and greeted King Qi and Guo Ziwu.

Soon after, several guards entered, looking like wolves, and they said, "Your Royal Highness, Jian Xue has gone out and ambushed. ”

Seeing Li Zhiwan's face sank, the attendants all knew that it was not good, but they could only tell the truth. Insiders know that Li Zhiwan and Jian Xue are sisters in love, and now that Jian Xue has been captured, they will be severely punished as Jian Xue's entourage.

Li Zhiwan's lips pursed, and when she was about to think about countermeasures, a guard ran in and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess Qiyu, Jian Xue is back." ”

A smile bloomed on Li Zhiwan's face, as if the ice and snow had just melted.

Immediately, Jian Xue ran into the big tent and said, "Miss, I thought I almost didn't see you." ”

Li Zhi said politely: "Why is it hurt? ”

Jian Xue shook her head, but seeing Li Yuanji and Guo Ziwu on her side, they would not be worried about their maids.

Jian Xue whispered to Li Zhiwan at the moment: "Miss, I have something to say to you." ”

Li Zhiwan nodded, and the two of them came to her private account.

Jian Xue said: "Miss, after I was captured in Zhongfu, I was taken to the Zhongjun to see the thief surnamed Li. ”

Li Zhiwan looked at Jian Xue and said with a smile: "I know, he will not embarrass you." ”

Jian Xue snorted and said, "Miss, how can you speak for him." ”

Li Zhiwan walked to the table, stroked the long sword on the table, and said: "To tell the truth, even if the two of you don't know each other, he has always been arrogant, but he will not embarrass a woman." Otherwise, when you were in Qiqianzhai, he wouldn't have let you go. ”

Hearing Li Zhiwan say this, Jian Xue was about to take out Li Chongjiu's letter, when Li Zhiwan raised her head and said: "This time, my father decreed that I and Li Chongjiu should fight to the death, and we must drag him in Lushui and prevent him from returning to Jinyang." But my father ordered the fourth brother to be the prisoner, obviously suspicious of me. ”

Jian Xue saw Li Zhiwan's eyes glazed, obviously distressed by Li Yuan's suspicion of her.

Jian Xue asked, "How are you doing, Miss?" ”

Li Zhiwan pulled her right hand, the sword was half out of the scabbard, the sword light was slightly cold, and the bright blade was reflecting Li Zhiwan's pair of autumn water.

Li Zhiwan put her hands behind her and didn't answer at the moment.

Jian Xue gritted her teeth, she didn't know if she took out Li Chongjiu's letter to Li Zhiwan, she didn't know what would happen to Li Zhiwan and Li Chongjiu in the future after taking it out. And now the 30,000 Tang troops next to Lushui are all decided by Li Zhiwan, and at this moment, Li Chongjiu wrote to Li Zhiwan what he meant, and whether he had any bad intentions.

"Jian Xue, that ...... Does that man have anything for you to bring to me? Li Zhiwan asked.

Jian Xue was speechless for a while, and said, "No...... No. ”

"Really?" Li Zhiwan turned her head, and her clear gaze made Jian Xue panic for a while.

Jian Xue held her breath and said, "He only said that Miss should cherish it." ”

"That's right." Jian Xue obviously heard that Li Zhiwan was a little disappointed in her tone.

Jian Xue felt sad again. Jian Xue comforted herself from the bottom of her heart, I am doing this for the good of Miss, women, no matter how resolute I am on weekdays, but when it comes to emotional matters, I will become indecisive.

Mademoiselle must not be confused in any way when the great war is imminent, and let her wait until after the battle to give him this letter.

In the middle of the Youzhou Army, Li Chongjiu stared at the Tang Army camp, and he didn't know what Li Zhiwan would do when he saw his request.

Li Chongjiu couldn't help laughing at himself, he wrote in the letter that he was willing to make peace with Li Tang on the condition of giving up Taiyuan County, including the captured important land of Jinyang, and the two sides would strike their troops, and he would marry Li Zhiwan as the main room.

In exchange for a county, it is in response to the saying that the country and the city are captivated, what peerless beauty in this world can be exchanged for a country and a city, but all the heroes who ignore the six relatives and are interested in the world will not make such a decision.

But Li Chongjiu understands that this is the only way, and only in this way can he impress a person as utilitarian and realistic as Li Yuan.

Of course, if Li Chongjiu unifies Hebei in the future, it will inevitably lead to a war with Li Tang, which is also a helpless thing.

Li Chongjiu had been thinking deeply, and the generals beside him thought he was worried about the war.

Wei Zheng, who stayed in Zhuo County today, ordered people to send a message to the horse for 400 miles, saying that Dou Jiande of Hejian County had gathered heavy troops in Hejian County, and also ordered Luo Cheng to recruit troops and buy horses, faintly with the intention of attacking Youzhou in the north.

Wei Zheng asked Li Chongjiu to immediately withdraw his troops from Jinyang and return north to Youzhou, otherwise once Dou Jiande's army of more than 100,000 troops went north to attack Youzhou, with more than 10,000 township soldiers in Youzhou, it would not be enough to resist.

In addition, the king of Silla sent a letter, saying that Goguryeo invaded Silla in the south, and asked Youzhou to support one or two.

As far as the generals are concerned, Lu Chongmao and Yao Junsu in Hedong have been wiped out by Li Shimin, and the strategy of leading the army south to drink the Yellow River is no longer realistic.

And in front of Luzhou can not be captured, the 20,000 women's army stationed in Luzhou is a strong enemy, a few days ago in a battle, Li Sanniang led the army to kill many generals of the Youzhou army quite frightened, if it is not blocked by the wind and snow, what will be the result of continuing to fight, everyone dare not speculate.

Now the army can't advance or retreat by the water, the weather is bitter cold, Luzhou has become a chicken rib, and everyone has already intended to retreat, but they are worried that Li Sanniang will lead the army to follow and pursue.

Li Chongjiu understood the thoughts of the generals, and the war in the state was meaningless. Therefore, even if Li Chongjiu didn't write that letter, he now has the plan to retreat back to Youzhou to resist Dou Jiande, who has always been involved in Youzhou.

However, even if Li Yuan refused to make peace, Li Chongjiu was convinced that even if he retreated to Youzhou, Taiyuan County would not lose.

The audience will speak, Li Chongjiu glanced at it again, and the Tang Army camp on the mountain. At this moment, he had already made a decision, no longer waiting for Li Sanniang's news, and asked at the moment: "How has Lushui been freezing these days?" ”

"Hui Khan, I have already tried, the river is frozen, and the war horses can run across the river!" Eto replied.

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "Pass the order, the army will cross the river tomorrow on solid ice and return to Jinyang!" ”

Hearing Li Chongjiu say this, all the generals were happy.

On the side, Xue Wanche asked, "Shanggu Gong, why don't you retreat at night?" ”

Li Chongjiu said: "If you are a retired soldier, you are upright, if you go by night, it will make the Tang army underestimate our army." ”

Early the next morning.

Li Chong's 90,000 army began to pull out the camp from the bank of the Luzhou River, and the front camp of the army was pulled up in turn.

And Wang Mahan, Tan Zong led the foot soldiers to cross the river from the ice in a hurry.

Ji Chuan, who was on the bank of the river, also led the camp to stay in Hebei, and nearly 10,000 soldiers went out of the camp together, but the Tang army pursued.

Now Lu Guo is really frozen bottom, not only is it unhindered for people to move, but they are also riding horses, and they are not worried, but Li Chongjiu's corporal still leads the horse in order to be careful.

Seeing that Lushui, which had been dangerous a few days ago, was now unimpeded, the three armies couldn't help but be overjoyed and quickened the pace of marching.

Of course, for the Tang Army, the freezing of Lushui made Li Chongjiu calmly retreat, which was of course bad news.

Li Zhiwan, Li Yuanji, Guo Ziwu and other generals of the Tang Army watched Li Chongjiu's retreat from the Tang Army camp.

Li Zhiwan looked at it for a long time, and then said: "The former is not impatient, the latter is not afraid, the Youzhou army can really be described as elite soldiers." ”

Li Yuanji said: "Yes, such a fierce enemy, if the tiger returns to the mountain, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles, my father ordered the two of us to cut off Li Chongjiu's way back, and now Li Chongjiu is retreating in front of our eyes, it is the time when we lead the army to cover up and pursue." ”

"Wait," Li Zhi said gracefully, "You see that Li Chongjiu dares to retreat in broad daylight and in a grand manner, he must hold something, maybe he is just waiting for me to pursue?" ”

Seeing this, Guo Ziwu smiled and said: "Her Royal Highness the princess is too careful, under the daylight, what tricks are there, you can also see at a glance." ”

Li Yuanji saw that Guo Ziwu agreed, and he was secretly happy in his heart.

Li Zhiwan saw that the two of them were wearing a pair of pants and shook her head secretly. (To be continued.) )
