Later, Pei Lin cleared the wilderness and burned the people's grain, which finally caused a riot.

Lü Chongmao, a native of Xia County, gathered those people who were dissatisfied with the Tang army, proclaimed himself King of Wei, and responded to Liu Wuzhou.

"What? A small peasant dares to call himself the King of Wei? ”

When Pei Lin heard the news of Lu Chongmao's rebellion, he was surprised and disdainful: "Wait for me to lead my troops and kill him." ”

He can't defeat Song Jingang, can't he destroy a peasant?

So, Pei Lin confidently reorganized his army and went to Xia County.

As a result, it backfired, Pei Lin was defeated and fled back to Hedong in disgrace.

On the other side, Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, was guarding Jinyang, and he couldn't wait for rescue, and he was in a very irritable mood.

On this day, the soldiers came to report: "King Qi, it's not good, Liu Wuzhou is here." ”

Li Yuanji panicked when he heard it: "He...... How many people did he bring? ”

"It is said that there are 100,000 troops, and there are Turkic iron cavalry."

Hearing this, Li Yuanji's face turned white all of a sudden, and he hurriedly ordered: "Go and call me the Duke of Anfeng County." ”

Dou Dan, the Duke of Anfeng County, is the son of Dou Kang, the Duke of Chen Guo, and Dou Kang is the brother of Queen Mu Dou, and later Dou Dan married Li Yuan's second daughter, Princess Xiangyang, and worshiped Ma Duwei.

At the beginning, Li Yuan ordered Li Yuanji to guard and merge the state, thinking that Li Yuanji was young and did not know about political affairs, he ordered Yu Wenxin and Dou Dan to assist him in handling the affairs of the state.

But Li Yuanji was like a soil emperor in Jinyang, doing nonsense all day long, Yu Wenxin once told Li Yuan about Li Yuanji's absurd acts, and Li Yuanji was removed from his official position.

Although Li Yuanji later managed to restore his official position, since then, he has a grudge against Yu Wenxin, and he will not discuss anything with Yu Wenxin, and he still acts recklessly.

However, although Dou Dan was also sent by Li Yuan, he was Li Yuanji's brother-in-law, and he had a similar temperament with Li Yuanji, and the two had a very deep friendship.

Therefore, when encountering a major event, Li Yuanji first thought of this brother-in-law.

Soon, Dou Dan came to Li Yuanji's mansion.

"What to do? Liu Wuzhou's gang is going to attack Jinyang? As soon as Li Yuanji saw Dou Dan, he couldn't wait to ask for help.

Dou Dan was also very panicked in his heart, and scolded angrily in his mouth: "It's all Pei Lone, Your Majesty ordered him to rescue Jinyang, but he always stayed in Jinzhou and did nothing."

"It's okay now, even Jinzhou has been lost, and it has opened the way for Liu Wuzhou to go straight to our Jinyang, which is really hateful."

When Li Yuanji heard this, he was greatly moved, and agreed with his words very much: "That's right, it's all Pei Lian's fault, I must report to Aya and punish him severely." ”

The two of them scolded Pei Lin word by word, then looked at each other, and suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Li Yuanji asked, "So, what should we do now?" ”

"What should I do?" Dou Dan couldn't think of a good solution, so he asked Li Yuanji instead.

Li Yuanji: "......"

"Why don't we run." Li Yuanji had an idea and said: "Since we can't fight, let's not waste our troops, and keep it for a comeback in the future." ”

Dou Liang showed a thoughtful expression, touched his chin and said, "This plan...... Wonderful! ”

The two hit it off and immediately discussed the details.

On the evening of that day, Li Yuanji convened Jinyang officials and generals to discuss countermeasures.

"Liu Wuzhou is about to attack, what good plan do you have?"

Everyone looked at Liu Zhenghui.

Liu Zhenghui was the captain of the guard at that time, and he was deeply loved by the military and the people.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Liu Zhenghui muttered: "For today's plan, we can only hold Jinyang and wait for reinforcements only by gathering the strength of the people in the city and uniting the hearts of all people." ”

In the current situation, it is impossible to defeat Liu Wuzhou.

If it is said that Jinyang City is defended, there is still a trace of possibility.

"You're right." Li Yuanji echoed his words: "For the sake of today's plan, we can only fight." ”

The next moment, Li Yuanji issued an order: "Liu Zhenghui, Liu Dewei, you lead the old and infirm people to stick to the city, and Dou Dan and I will take the strong soldiers out of the city to face the battle." ”

Hearing this order, Yu Wenxin always felt that something was wrong, and opened his mouth to say something. But after thinking about it, there is no other good way to do it now, so I shut my mouth.

Then, Li Yuanji set the time of departure: "Tomorrow when I go out of the city, I will catch them off guard." ”

......

On the second day, at midnight, the soldiers were ready to go.

Li Yuanji gave an order, and the army left the city and rushed in the direction where Liu Wuzhou came.

Not long after, at a fork in the road, Li Yuanji and Dou Dan glanced at each other, then stopped their horses and said to Yu Wenxin: "You first lead the cavalry to take the lead and attack from the front, and I will lead the infantry to go from this road and outflank Liu Wuzhou from the side." ”

As he spoke, Li Yuanji pointed to the road on the left.

If you want to catch the enemy off guard, you have to be fast, in order to seize the opportunity, Yu Wenxin didn't think about it and agreed.

So, the army divided into two routes, Yu Wenxin led the cavalry to go straight, and Li Yuanji and Dou Dan led the infantry to the left road.

Who knew that it didn't take long for Li Yuanji to suddenly raise his horsewhip and whip it heavily on the horse.

"Drive!"

The horse was in pain and galloped away.

The cronies behind had already prepared, and chased after them, and the baggage carriage behind them also suddenly accelerated and galloped away past everyone.

The infantry paused and looked dazed: "What's going on?" Surprised? ”

However, the carriage ran too fast, and the curtain shook, revealing the beautiful lady with beads and hairpins inside, and everyone suddenly woke up: where is the army's baggage, it is clearly the wife and concubine of the king of Qi.

It's not that the horse is shocked, but the king of Qi fled with his wife and concubine.

In just a few moments, Li Yuanji, Dou Dan and others had disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

Everyone: "......"

Yu Wenxin on the other road was not going well, and as soon as he was halfway there, he met Liu Wuzhou's army.

Liu Wuzhou was outnumbered, and sent the Turkic cavalry to take the lead, and after only a hundred rounds of fighting, the Tang cavalry was defeated and Yuwenxin was captured.

After eliminating the cavalry of the Tang Army, Liu Wuzhou continued to move forward, and before he went far, he saw the Tang Army in front of him.

These Tang troops were the infantry abandoned by Li Yuanji, and they had no choice but to return to Jinyang, but they did not expect to meet Liu Wuzhou's army on the way, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly raised their weapons.

"Kill!"

Liu Wuzhou personally led the cavalry and rushed forward.

It is conceivable that the Tang army had just been hit by Li Yuanji once, and its morale was low, and at this moment, when he saw the enemy so fierce, his morale dropped sharply.

After fighting for less than half an hour, the Tang army could not resist and fled in the direction of Jinyang.

Liu Zhenghui was patrolling the city wall, and saw a black shadow from a distance, and it was not the military flag of the Tang Army floating in the air, but the military flag of Liu Wuzhou, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers: "Close the city gate." ”

The infantry fled to the gates, but when they saw that the gates were closed, they hurriedly cried out: "Open the gates, we will enter the city." ”

"Can't be opened." Liu Dewei walked to Liu Zhenghui's side, looked at the soldiers below, and said solemnly: "Open the city gate at this time, and the rebels will definitely take the opportunity to attack the city."

"At that time, we will not be able to resist, and Jinyang will fall."

Liu Zhenghui looked at the soldiers below who were chased and cornered, and hurriedly held weapons to resist, and his heart was full of grief......
