Chapter 13: One hundred thousand urgent
Li Changfeng pulled out his feet and ran to the camp
Wang Ashui was worried that the old gentleman had something to do, and hurriedly shouted: "Be careful not to fall, it is impossible to have an accident in our barracks."
It's just that Li Changfeng couldn't listen to his words, although Li Changshan heard it, he always felt that Wang Ashui's words had no confidence, although this was an independent camp allocated to the Li family, but the Li family's guards were all tired, and the soldiers patrolling the camp were all soldiers sent by Liu Ziqiu, and those young men were all bloody and strong, if someone took a fancy to Li Mingyue's beauty, it was not impossible for them to suddenly have evil intentions
Li Changfeng was the first to rush into the tent, but he didn't have a foot, in the tent, Li Mingyue's face was flushed, and he was sitting face to face with a black-clothed and black-horned general talking, Li Changfeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Li Mingyue's clothes neat, but then he was furious and said: "Where does the thief dare to ......?"
Li Mingyue hurriedly said: "Grandpa, she is Mrs. Mu Duoli next to Lord Liu."
The black-clothed and black-armored general turned his head and took off his helmet to reveal a charming smile: "The old gentleman is back, I heard my lord say that there is a little sister here, I am afraid that the little sister will be bored in the barracks alone, come and talk to her, which will make the old gentleman worried, and I hope the old gentleman will forgive me."
Li Changfeng saw that it was indeed a woman, so he was completely relieved and hurriedly said: "Madame's words are serious, how dare the little old man blame Madame?"
……
The next day, before dawn, the barracks sounded the horn of "woo woo" again, the gate of Jincheng Pass slowly opened, the soldiers of the three armies lined up, and the Li family's team assembled relatively slowly, and today it fell through the Guancheng, Li Changshan looked back, but the door had been locked again, he knew for a long time, Liu Ziqiu, in order to prevent the news from leaking, was afraid that before the duel with Yang Xuangan, Jincheng Pass would not be opened again
The army still maintained a very high marching speed, along the Weishui all the way east, through the county town of Xiangwu without entering the day, before dark, arrived in Longxi County, Li Changshan brothers, from the time of going to Xiping, it was from Longxi County, day and night, and walked for a full three days, and Liu Ziqiu's 100,000 army only took two days to arrive in Longxi County, this speed is incredible, and what is even more terrifying is that those young soldiers are still alive and well, on the other hand, these guards of the Li family are only afraid that they will not rest for three or five days, and they will not be able to slow down
What made Li Changshan relieved was that Liu Ziqiu really did not break his promise, and the 100,000 army passed through Longxi, and not a single soldier made a move to harass the locality, such a strict military discipline, I am afraid that there is no second army that can do it in the past and present
The army set up camp in the eastern suburbs of Longxi County, Liu Ziqiu unexpectedly found that the people of the Li family did not leave, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Liu's army will enter Tianshui County early tomorrow morning, the two old gentlemen should be relieved, marching behind Liu is a chore, the old gentleman can sleep well tonight."
Li Changshan's reason for wanting Liu Ziqiu to make a detour was to avoid harassment by the army, and now it turned out that this worry was simply superfluous, and he couldn't use it as an excuse anymore, of course, his real reason was that he didn't want to be caught between Liu Ziqiu and Yang Xuangan, but this reason couldn't be said
However, in the past two days, after seeing the military might of Liu Ziqiu's army, Li Changshan has greatly increased his confidence in Liu Ziqiu's Eastern Crusade, and said: "Lord Liu, my Li family is willing to send troops to help, and I also ask my lord to agree."
Liu Ziqiu shook his head and said: "Mr. Li is going to die when he fights, I think it's better to forget about sending troops to help."
The Li family's private soldiers are numerous and well-equipped, but that is also relatively speaking, Liu Ziqiu doesn't look down on them at all, having those people in the team is a drag, which will eventually affect Liu Ziqiu's deployment, but Liu Ziqiu also knows that Li Changshan's move is to make a statement, and he doesn't necessarily want to send troops to the war, so he said with a smile: "The children of the Li family read more poetry and books, and there is a lack of secretaries in the army, so I want to ask Mr. Li to help me a lot."
Li Changshan hurriedly said: "Lord Liu, don't worry, tomorrow morning, the old man will let them come to the adult's tent to listen to it."
The Li brothers finally did not live in the barracks for two days, although they sat in a comfortable carriage, after all, they were old, and the old arms and legs were really not very adaptable, and on the way back to the city, Li Mingyue looked behind through the curtain from time to time
Li Changfeng quipped: "Mingyue, what did you lose?"
Li Mingyue said in surprise: "No, my things are in the car"
Li Changfeng laughed and said, "I think your soul is lost."
Li Mingyue's face was flushed: "Grandpa, you make fun of me"
……
In the big tent, Liu Ziqiu focused on the generals and was discussing tomorrow's battle plan, and there was a huge sand table in the tent, revealing the topography of Tianshui, Fufeng, and Jingzhao counties, and the idea of the sand table was Liu Ziqiu's idea to come up with the production was completed by He Chou and Yu Wenkai commanding the craftsmen, and the mountains, rivers, and geography of the three counties were from Yu Wenkai's memories, and the person Liu Ziqiu was waiting for that day was Yu Wenkai
Yu Wenkai looked at the sand table and said regretfully: "It's a pity that if you give your subordinates another three months, your subordinates can build a warship and go down the Weishui River to the east to reach Chang'an."
Liu Ziqiu said with a smile: "Lord Yuwen's proposal is good, but it is unrealistic, most of the soldiers under Liu's command are not accustomed to water, and taking a boat is no different from giving up the basics, it is better to rely on two pairs of iron feet to come faster, let's discuss how to fight tomorrow's battle."
Gui Haiqiu arched his hand and said: "How else can you fight all the way to attack the city and pull out the village to level the world"
Liu Ziqiu shook his head and said: "Your tactics are not right, our battle is about the speed of soldiers, so we must highlight a fast word."
Liu Yu looked at the sand table and said: "Fufeng is the gateway to the west of Chang'an, as long as Fufeng is conquered, Chang'an is just around the corner, so at the beginning, Yu Wenhua and Yang Xuangan will compete here in every possible way, the lord raided Yu Wenhua and let Yang Xuangan get cheap, not only to capture Fufeng and Tianshui, but also to incorporate Yu Wenhua and the people and horses."
Liu Ziqiu waved his hand and said: "At that time, there was no way to do it, if you continue to advance eastward, the army will not continue, but it will cause a catastrophe, and there is no need to mention the past things, Liu joined the army, what good ideas do you have for attacking Fufeng?"
Liu Yu pointed towards the sand table and said: "Lord, please see that there are three passes in Fufeng, the Great Earthquake Pass, the Anyi Pass, and the Dasan Pass, these three passes are the real gateways to the west of Chang'an, as long as one of these three passes is conquered, the army can drive straight in, if it is delayed in these three passes for a long time, it will not only deplete the military strength, but also frustrate morale."
Jiang Yu said with a smile: "Liu Senjun is right, these three levels are the key to this battle, and his subordinates think that in order to overcome these three levels, they still need to grasp a quick word."
Liu Ziqiu nodded and said: "The two of you who joined the army are reasonable, this battle will be taken by surprise, and Liu will give up Tianshui and take the three passes directly."
Liu Yu frowned and said: "If you give up Tianshui and take the three passes directly, I'm afraid it's a bit risky to cut off the grain route by the enemy."
Liu Ziqiu said with a smile: "It's okay, although there are more than 20,000 garrisons of Yang Xuangan in Tianshui County, but they are scattered in Jicheng, Longcheng, Shangqing, Qinling and other places, and when they see our army passing through, they will never dare to act rashly, as long as they conquer the three passes, these troops will lose contact with Chang'an, and then they can only surrender a way out, and the advantage of our army is that the cavalry, General Wen led 10,000 fine horsemen to patrol back and forth on the grain road, only Yang Xuangan's army dared to go out of the city, so that he would not return."
Wen Hao arched his hand and said: "The last general will obey the order"
Wen Hao was very sorry that he couldn't participate in the battle of attacking the three passes, but the military order was like a mountain, but he couldn't bargain
Liu Ziqiu waved his hand again and said: "Zhang Liang, Shi Danai, Gui Hai and others will each receive 15,000 elite soldiers, cook the second watch, and set off on the third watch, and be sure to win the three passes before dawn the day after tomorrow, and the first person to enter the customs will be rewarded with a thousand gold."
……
But it was said that Wang Shichong fled from Jiangdu and led hundreds of remnants all the way north, and when he arrived in Luoyang in a day, he was surrounded by Li Yuan's army and stationed in the southern suburbs of Luoyang.
Li Xiaogong saw that he and his subordinates were embarrassed, so he had three points of faith and asked: "Wang Shichong, why don't you stay in Jiangdu and run to Luoyang?"
Wang Shichong naturally refused to tell the truth, and prostrated on the ground and said in a loud voice: "Jiangnan Xie family rebelled, crossed the Yangtze River and occupied Jiangdu, Wang was desperate, and he came to join Master Li, and hoped that the general would act as a general."
Among the heroes who have seized various places, Li Yuan is more aware of the overall situation, and he also pays more attention to collecting intelligence from all over the world, so Li Xiaogong also knows that Wang Shichong is a treacherous person, so he can't help sneering: "Lord Li, there are many ministers and generals, but you don't need a villain like you to come, drag it out and cut it."
Wang Shichong hurriedly said: "General, please listen to the villain's words, the villain has a 100,000 urgent military situation that needs to be reported to Lord Li, if the general kills the villain and misses the big thing, it will be too late to regret it."
Jiangnan is not in the eyes of the heroes, Li Yuan also knows very little about the situation in Jiangnan, Li Xiaogong thought that what Wang Shichong was going to say was related to the Jiangnan Xie family, so he couldn't help but nodded and said: "What is the 100,000 urgent military situation, you tell me."
Wang Shichong saw that things had taken a turn for the better, and said with a smile: "General Rongyu, this matter must be met by Lord Li before he can say it."
Li Xiaogong snorted coldly and said: "You can't help this matter, if you don't say so-and-so, I will kill you."
Wang Shichong laughed and said: "The general has three times to prevent the villain from seeing Master Li, but he is secretly antipathetic".
