Luoyang City

Li Xuan and his entourage walked casually in this heavily guarded city in the past, and occasionally they could see a crowd of people walking by in a hurry, with a vegetable-looking face, a relaxed and freehand, as if Li Xuan and his party were going out with his wife and housekeeper, and the surrounding environment was obviously a little incompatible, as if people from two worlds were staggered in a certain time period of spatial dislocation.

"Hey, you three, yes, it's you, stop for Lao Tzu!" In the ruins, a group of people suddenly came out, led by a big man with a full face and meat, carrying a broken steel knife on his shoulder, surrounded by a group of men armed with sticks, and walked in front of the three people with a high toe, blocking the way of the three people.

No matter how you look at it, these people who look more like scoundrels have nothing to do with the word elite, the two naturally know that at present, there are mobbies in Luoyang, and many people take advantage of the troubled waters to fish and pull people to open the mountain, the people in front of them belong to this category, but there are only dozens of people, and they dare to run to block the road, it is the first time in Li Xuan's plane career.

"You're talking to us?" Looking at the man in front of him with a face full of flesh and a big waist and a round waist, Li Xuan couldn't help but confirm it once, it seems to be majestic, but in fact he is strong on the outside and dry in the middle, with an embroidered pillow, don't say that the Chu army is elite, that is, any army in Chu can easily level this person if he pulls out a person.

"Nonsense." The big man pursed his lips disdainfully, squinted his eyes at Li Xuan and said: "Don't look at the current world, don't put your noble son in front of you, third master, I won't eat your set, and I won't inquire, this Luoyang City." Who doesn't know your name Liu Sanye? ”

Déjà vu words, it has been a long time since anyone dared to speak in such a posture in front of him, which made Li Xuan suddenly feel a little nostalgic, looked at the big man in front of him, and said with interest: "I really haven't heard of it." ”

"Boy!" A fierce light flashed in Liu Sanye's eyes, and he waved the steel knife on his shoulder. Sen Ran said: "Don't toast and don't eat and drink, it's annoying the third master, I know you, this knife doesn't recognize you!" ”

Huang Yaoshi was speechless, in his career, it was probably the first time that he was threatened by this kind of green-skinned scoundrel, but it was also a new thing, seeing that Li Xuan did not move, and did not have a seizure. Stand by and watch.

"Really?" Li Xuan's gaze stayed on the broken steel knife on the other party's shoulder for a moment, and he looked at the other party with interest and said, "The knife is good, did you pick it up?" ”

"Holy, boy, you want to die, don't you?" Liu Sanye's face twitched, and he glared at Li Xuan fiercely and roared: "Acquaintance, leave the finances on your body and the women around you, and then get out of here." Otherwise......"

"You know me, but your sword doesn't know me. Is it? Li Xuan interrupted Liu Sanye's barking.

"Uh......, that's good." The originally high momentum was a little bit unacceptable with Li Xuan's snatching of white, and it was true that the words were like this, but they popped out of the other party's mouth, making Liu Sanye feel that something was wrong. Something seems to be missing.

"Boom~" The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and in the rapid sound of hooves, even the ground trembled, and Liu Sanye's face changed, as the head snake of Luoyang. Although he didn't have any skills, he still had some knowledge, which was clearly the sound of a large number of cavalry galloping, and he didn't care about continuing to exert his power at the moment, so he directly threw the steel knife that was in the way to the ground, and then a word of wind was tightened, and he roared away with a group of subordinates.

Luoyang's city guards have long been divided, although Mongolia is not lacking in cavalry, but at present, in this ruined city, there are not many cavalry that can be gathered, and even fewer can form a scale.

In an instant, a group of cavalry had already roared, and a knight came three steps in front of Li Xuan and the three of them, skillfully reined in the war horse, turned over and dismounted, and knelt on one knee: "The last general, Gongsun Yuan, see Your Majesty." ”

"Your Majesty...... In the distance, Liu Sanye, who had not fled far, listened to the loud voice, his legs were weak, and he almost sat down on the ground.

"Let's be flat." Li Xuan waved his hand and said to the cavalry general in front of him, although he was not a famous historical general, his ability was barely qualified for the position of cavalry general among the slaves recruited by Li Xuan.

"Thank you." Gongsun Yuan nodded, stood up, and bowed solemnly.

"How's it going?" Looking at the military general in front of him, Li Xuan frowned.

"Back to His Majesty, during this period of time, according to His Majesty's method, we have successfully recovered most of the former city guards, and now we are in Luoyang City, and we can already gather enough troops of 10,000 people, if we can coerce some people, this scale can be doubled." Gongsun Yuan said proudly.

From the beginning of Luoyang City to the present, it has not been a long time, although it has taken advantage of the chaos, and there are dozens of slave soldiers purchased by Li Xuan from the slave market to help, but in such a short period of time, it can pull up an army of 10,000 people, even with the planning of Li Xuan and Huang Yaoshi, its ability is not bad.

"Not bad." Li Xuan nodded and said: "It's useless, you don't have to coerce the people anymore, divide the troops in your hands into five teams, immediately clear the rest of the forces in the city, and restore order in Luoyang." ”

"Yes!" After Gongsun Yuan crossed his waist and saluted, he turned over his horse and walked away.

"You're going to take over the city?" Huang Yaoshi looked at Li Xuan puzzled, now that Luoyang was constantly destroyed by Li Xuan, it could almost be said to be a ruined city, such a city, he really couldn't think of any value to occupy?

"After the chaos, when there is great governance, although these cities have been reduced to abandoned cities after this battle, but the outline is still there, not to mention that Luoyang's terrain extends in all directions, if it is abandoned, it is a pity." Li Xuan nodded and said, Luoyang is different from other cities, it is a place where dragon qi gathers, and it has extraordinary significance for the emperor, such a city, even if the city wall collapses, Li Xuan will never let go.

With Li Xuan's orders one after another, originally because of the shortage of food, and civil strife breeded, bandits everywhere made the city, and suddenly it was quickly occupied by a small army, these troops were not many in number, more than a thousand people, less than a few hundred, but they were all well-trained, quickly took down one city after another, and quickly planted the flag of Chu at the head of the city.

Nanyang, the Mongolian camp.

"Great Khan, last night Zhang Hongfan took advantage of the night to take the Han army of his headquarters and quietly left, did he send troops to chase after him?" In front of Kublai Khan, Hagrid gritted his teeth and said, the two were already incompatible, and now, Zhang Hongfan led the people to rebel at this critical juncture, which will inevitably make the already low morale even more decadent, which is tantamount to adding insult to injury for the Mongol army, and it is a good example for others.

"Chase!?" Kublai Khan's tired gaze fell on Hagrid's face, sighed softly, patted Hagrid's shoulder and said, "At this time, I'm afraid he is already in Nanyang City, how can he chase him?" ”

Zhang Hongfan, a veteran general in the army, has so much experience in the battlefield, how can he not know the truth of guarding against the pursuing soldiers, even if he does not enter the city at this moment, ordinary generals are definitely not opponents.

"Is that all!?" Hagrid asked indignantly.

"Or else?" Kublai Khan smiled bitterly and said: "The top priority is to prepare for the evacuation as much as possible, with the help of Zhang Hongfan's Han army, with the morale of the men and horses in his hands and the army, it is almost impossible to break through Nanyang, now what we can do is to withdraw the troops as much as possible, and don't let our warriors continue to sacrifice on this battlefield senselessly." ”

"Withdraw!?" Hagrid looked at Kublai Khan incredulously, with a deep unwillingness in his eyes.

"Yes, withdraw the troops!" Kublai Khan nodded, looked in the direction of Nanyang City, and suddenly had an unspeakable depression in his chest, when he came to a million troops, marching in three ways, how majestic and mighty, but now, he had to be like a lost dog, returning with a feather, and facing the blow of losing a large number of land.

What worries Kublai Khan even more is that Li Xuan will let them return to the steppe lightly? (To be continued......)
