The torches around the city were bright, and on the hillside where Li Chongjiu was located, pine lights were lit everywhere.

Wearing an iron armor, he galloped, with three human heads hanging on his horse's head, and when he saw Li Chongjiu, he immediately showed off his skills and said: "Khan, Liu Wu has more than 10,000 troops on Monday, and he has pursued and killed dozens of miles for my more than 20,000 cavalry, and it has been a fiasco!" ”

As soon as Eto had finished speaking, Inghefer also returned with his army. He immediately came to the mountain, and when he saw Li Chongjiu, he said angrily: "Khan, I have something important to tell you alone!" ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Here are all confidants, just say it!" ”

Ying Hefu's chest rose and fell, and after drinking a bag of water, he said: "The cavalry khan, General Wei Chi Lang, led the army to pursue the headquarters of Liu Wuzhou's army, and when he was about to take Liu Wuzhou's head, he was intercepted by Song Jingang, but General Wei Chi Lang ordered his subordinates not to pursue, and as a result, Liu Wuzhou fled into Yanmen City. ”

The generals on the left and right all changed slightly when they heard this. Many of them knew the reason, Song Jingang was the former owner of Wei Chigong, and he was released by Wei Chigong, obviously because of private abolition.

Soon after, the strikers returned. At the foot of the hillside, captured horses, equipment, money and grain were piled up, and the escorted Liu Jun prisoners passed down the mountain one by one.

"General Wei Chilang, what is your explanation for letting Liu Wuzhou go?" Wang Mahan immediately asked Wei Chigong, who was the latest to return to the army.

Wei Chigong clasped his fists and said to Li Chongjiu: "The last general did not show favoritism, Song Jingang originally led the army to Fanshi County to relieve grain, the last general observed that his army was rigorous, and the last general pursued more than 50 miles, and the people were tired and tired, so he did not pursue without authorization. ”

"Who doesn't know that Yu Chilang will be brave and fierce, if he says that he will retreat because of Song Jingang's release of grain, I don't believe it!" Ingavir exclaimed.

Wei Chigong listened to Ying Hefu questioning him, his black face sank at the moment, and he shouted: "You have to believe in a certain letter, and if you don't believe it, you won't quarrel with you!" ”

Inhefer was also furious, and wanted to draw his sword at the moment, but the left and right generals stopped him and said: "There is something to say, but there is a dispute!" ”

"Enough!" Li Chongjiu threw the horsewhip to the ground, and all the generals stepped forward to plead guilty.

Li Chongjiu said: "Whether General Wei Chilang has dereliction of duty or not, without empirical evidence, should not make judgments. Now who can sue me, and what about each of them? ”

When the generals heard the news of whether Wei Chigong privately released Liu Wuzhou, all parties reported that in the next battle in Fanshi County, although Liu Wuzhou fled into Yanmen City, he was still not defeated, more than 10,000 troops, more than 300 beheaded, and more than 6,000 prisoners, including many generals, Liu Wuzhou's army lost at least more than half.

And Liu Wu was defeated on Monday, and when Yan Yelie, the general of the Fanbu Army, led the army to Wutai County, the defenders of the city heard that Liu Wuzhou was defeated, and in the dark night, I don't know how many people and horses, so they also fell from the wind. Yan Yelie effortlessly took Wutai County, a city of more than 5,000 soldiers and civilians, for Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu was overjoyed, and when he was discussing the merits, he listed Yan Ye as the first merit.

After a night of pursuit, it was now dawn.

Liu Wu and Zhou's army under the county seat of Fanshi had all retreated, and Li Chongjiu led the crowd to the east gate of Fanshi County a thousand steps away, and the army of 30,000 was also deployed under the city. And then the gate was half opened, and several horsemen rode out. Li Chongjiu saw that the leader was dressed in a white cloth robe, and he rode a horse to Li Chongjiu's eyes, it was Chen Xiaoyi, the county governor of Yanmen County, and then the military general was Wang Zhizhi, the general of the Tiger Benlang.

In the past, when Chen Xiaoyi was in Yanmen County, Wang Zhibian was Li Chongjiu's superior. Li Chongjiu stepped forward and saluted: "Chen Juncheng, Wang Lang will not be seen for a long time. ”

Wang Zhi saw that Li Chongjiu did not hold his own identity, nodded slightly, and was about to speak. Chen Xiaoyi waved his robe and said loudly: "Li Chongjiu led the army under the city, is it to attack the city?" ”

"Bold, the name of my Taishou is also what you call it at will!" Wang Mahan was the first to reprimand.

Chen Xiaoyi snorted coldly and said: "What is too guarded, but self-styled, in my eyes, Liu Wuzhou is generally a chaotic minister and thief." ”

Wang Mahan said angrily: "The county seat is about to be broken when you are busy, if it weren't for Taishou to come to help, the city would have been broken by now." There is a shortage of food in the city, and the people who are too obedient have sent food to relieve the hunger of the people, and now you are fine, turn your face and don't recognize people, pick up the bowl to eat meat, put down the chopsticks and scold the mother. I've never seen such a shameless courtier. ”

Chen Xiaoyi couldn't refute it for a while, Li Chongjiu said immediately: "It doesn't matter what Chen Juncheng thinks of me, I admit that I am a chaotic minister and thief, but when the county is besieged, you send someone to ask for help, but the imperial court has sent a soldier to help, and now I am relieving the siege of the city, you say that I am not, what is the reason." ”

Chen Xiaoyi sneered and said, "If it weren't for the fact that you were greedy for a city in a prosperous county, why would you come to the rescue." Now that you are strong and strong, you want to enter this city, and I have nothing to say. Then step over my corpse! People are here, if you want to kill, you will kill, I will observe the festival for the court, and I will die without regrets! ”

As soon as Chen Xiaoyi's words came out, everyone looked at each other, killing Chen Xiaoyi was nothing, but he was actually charged with conspiracy, so Li Chongjiu and Liu Wuzhou were the same. However, many people don't think about it, anyway, when they come to Li Chongjiu's step, they are now self-reliant, and there is only one step between separating self-reliance and rebellion. Anyway, fifty steps can't laugh at a hundred steps.

When Li Chongjiu saw the faces of all the generals, they all wanted to kill Chen Xiaoyi and enter the city. But Wen Yanbo shook his head slightly at Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu asked, "What did Wen Sima say?" ”

Wen Yanbo whispered: "Taishou, Chen Xiaoyi can defeat Liu Wuzhou's army in a lonely city for half a year, which is enough for him to win the hearts of the people in the city. ”

Ying Yanglang said disappreciatively to Zhao Quanting: "Wen Sima's words are wrong, in troubled times, what does the word loyalty mean?" ”

Wen Yanbo shook his head and said: "In the troubled times, people's hearts are deviated, some people trample on the word loyalty, but there are also people who follow the way of loyalty and righteousness, and the current situation is not the best example, I am afraid there are many people like Chen Xiaoyi in this world." ”

Li Chongjiu nodded, and then rode his horse forward and said, "Chen Junshou admires the ambition of the imperial court to die, so I will not enter this city." ”

Chen Xiaoyi said in surprise: "Li Chongjiu, are you really willing not to enter the city?" ”

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "This city is still guarded by Chen County, and Wang Lang will guard it, but I don't have the banner of Li, I still erect the banner of the Great Sui, but I need to have 500 generals." This is the minimum requirement, if not, my subordinates will not agree, how about Chen Junshou? ”

Wang Zhibi said on the side: "It's okay, after half a year of siege, more than half of the defenders of the city were killed and wounded, and the garrison was insufficient, and these 500 soldiers could be stationed to guard against Liu Wuzhou." ”

Hearing Wang Zhibi say this, Chen Xiaoyi glared at the other party angrily, looked at Li Chongjiu, and said with a flick of his sleeves: "It's already like this, what's the point, in short, I swear to defend this city for the imperial court." ”

After that, Chen Xiaoyi covered his sleeves and cried.

Seeing that Chen Xiaoyi agreed to his conditions, Li Chongjiu nodded, Li Yuan was about to rebel, and the Great Sui Guozuo had been less than a year, so he didn't have to worry at all, how long would Chen Xiaoyi be loyal to the imperial court. In the history books, Chen Xiaoyi's city was broken and killed by his subordinates, and now he has saved his life and saved the city, but he has not received half a word of thanks.

However, this time the troops were dispatched, and it can be said that they had gained a lot, and they had five stations and two counties, so that three of the five counties of Yanmen were in their own hands, and they successfully curbed the trend of Liu Wuzhou's eastward advance, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. So Li Chongjiu strengthened Wutai, the defenders of Lingqiu County, added Gao Chu as the general of Huyalang, responsible for the garrison of Yanmen County, Gao Chu led a thousand county soldiers and a thousand newly recruited new troops into the second county, and at the same time Lingqiu County 500 soldiers were also under the command of Gao Chu.

Then Li Chongjiu led the army back to Huaihuang Town and disbanded his army. At the same time, Li Chongjiu knew that the matter of competing with Liu Wuzhou in Yanmen must be known to the Turks. At present, the Turks are busy fighting for the position of Khan, and they have no time to pay attention to themselves, once the position of Khan is decided, then as the first major force in the steppe that does not submit to the Turks, Li Chongjiu will inevitably be attacked by the Turks. In the face of Li Chongjiu's attack on the 400,000 iron cavalry Turkic Khanate, even if the current strength has increased several times compared with two years ago, it is still incontestable for the time being.

Since the head-on is inconclusive, allies must be found. Li Chongjiu remembered that in history, Li Tang was able to defeat the Turks because of the heavy snow that had not been encountered in the steppe for thousands of years, and more than half of the Turkic cattle and sheep froze to death. The second is to unite the Xue Yantuo Department and the Hui Department in Mobei, as well as the Turki Khan within the Eastern Turks, to oppose Jieli together.

In Turkic language, Turki means east, and the so-called Turki Khan is the little Khan who is in charge of the eastern tribes. There were several Turkic Khans in history, but Li Tang rebelled against the son of the current Shibi Khan, named Ashinash Bobi.

The succession to the Turkic khanate can be either brother to brother or father to son. Now that Shibi was seriously ill, Ashnashi was still too young, so he was not qualified to compete with his uncles for the position of Turkic Khan. And when he grew up, his uncle also had his own son, so Ashinash Bobi could only be a little khan, and lost the qualification of a big khan, how could he not be resentful.

As for the Xue Yantuo Department and the Hui Department, they are both located in Mobei. Among them, the leader of the Xue Yantuo tribe Yi Nan has 70,000 tent forces, which can be called the only strong clan in Mobei in the Turks, and although the number of Hui tribes is a little smaller, it is extremely brave and good at fighting, in the first year of Zhenguan in history, the battle between the Hui and the Turks in the battle of Maguan Mountain, the Hui Hui broke the Turkic 100,000 horses with 3,000 people.

At present, the Turks moved the Khan's court from Yudu Jin Mountain in the north of the desert to the Iron Mountain in the Yinshan Mountain Range in the south of the desert, so the Turkic dominance in the north of the desert has decreased significantly. It's a great time for these two to rise. At that time, after Li Chongjiu consulted with Eto, Yinghefu, Murodefeng and others, he decided to send two caravans to Mobei, preparing to fund them with iron tools, salt, grain, etc., so that they could start against the Turks. At the same time, he also sent trusted Turkic merchants to communicate with Ashinash in order to divide the Turks.
