Chapter 452: Straight to the point

Chang'an, in the middle of the imperial palace.

Compared with Yang Guang's leisure, Li Shimin at this time fell into extreme anger.

He held in his hand a battle report that had just been sent urgently for eight hundred miles, his face was flushed, and his fingers were trembling.

It's hard to imagine that Li Shimin will be angry like this, you must know that since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin has become more and more calm, it is no exaggeration to say that even if someone points at his nose and scolds him for being a brute, he probably will not lose his mind like now.

In those eyes, there is a strong murderous intent!

"Your Majesty, I don't know what happened when I was summoned in the middle of the night?" After a while, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui rushed to the imperial study one after the other, and asked Li Shimin suspiciously.

"See for yourselves!"

Li Shimin handed them the already very crumpled battle report.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui launched a battle report, probably glanced at it, and then, the two of them trembled at the same time.

Because, every word on the battle report seems to be very heart-wrenching.

"The 70,000 Tang army encountered a surprise from the Sui army on the first day of arriving in Luoyang, and lost more than 40,000 people?"

"Wang Shichong of Luoyang closed the city gate, unwilling to come out to help?"

"In this battle, the Sui army even killed more than 100,000 Luoyang troops?"

The record on it, just one by one, is enough to make them gasp, because they all know how difficult it is to complete this record.

Of course, in addition to the Sui army's brilliance in Luoyang, Wang Shichong's actions were like adding fuel to the fire, not to mention Li Shimin, even if they saw it, they were also very angry.

"Wang Shichong on this dog day, is he still human? We also sent 70,000 Tang troops to support him, and that's how he repaid us? Fang Xuanling gritted his teeth and scolded in a low voice.

Du Ruhui's face was extremely worried: "The loss of more than 40,000 people at once is a heavy blow to the morale of our army!" So how did Yang Guang do it? Didn't he say that he only brought a total of 80,000 Sui troops over? ”

"70,000 against 80,000 people, in the face of a Tang army that is more powerful than them, but he can play such a miraculous result, how did he do it? I can't understand it! ”

Li Shimin had a dark face and said angrily: "Didn't you see that the battle report said that he shot on the day the Tang army arrived?" At that time, the Tang army was exhausted from top to bottom, how could it be comparable to the Sui army in terms of combat effectiveness? ”

"Those generals I sent were fucking a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, and they would make such a low-level mistake. Even if they make it back alive, I will pay a terrible price for them! ”

In the imperial study, the cold is pressing, and the evil atmosphere is pervasive.

But after a short silence, Fang Xuanling muttered with admiration: "But even so, under the threat of Wang Shichong, Yang Guang still dares to take the initiative rashly, just this courage and decisiveness are not comparable to ordinary people......

It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that Du Ruhui was pulling the corners of his clothes.

Only then did he react in hindsight, realizing that he had just said the wrong thing, his face directly turned the color of pig liver, and he cautiously glanced at Li Shimin.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't seem to be angry, and even his attention was not on him at all.

This couldn't help but make Fang Xuanling faintly relieved.

In fact, Li Shimin is indeed immersed in his own spiritual world.

Previously, he sent 70,000 Tang troops to Luoyang, and when he set off, he was full of spirits, thinking that these 70,000 Tang troops would definitely be able to show their strength and do a big job in Luoyang, even if they couldn't capture Yang Guang, they would have to strike at the edge of the Sui army.

Of course, we also have to take the opportunity to get some benefits from Luoyang.

However, I never thought that the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

When the Tang army entered Luoyang, it was not waiting for good news, but it was almost wiped out in the first battle.

At this moment, he really felt the crisis!

In the past, although he knew that Yang Guang was very powerful, he could only be regarded as a strong enemy at most, and he should not be a big trouble, after all, the powerful background of the Tang Dynasty was far from being comparable to that of the Great Sui.

As long as he wants, he can slaughter the Great Sui at any time!

But with the outbreak of the Luoyang incident, Li Shimin really realized the terrible thing about Yang Guang, this person can definitely be regarded as a genius, especially in military affairs, with a rather terrifying talent.

Such a mortal enemy, if it is not solved as soon as possible, I am afraid that sooner or later it will lead the Great Sui to comprehensively surpass the Great Tang.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" Seeing that Li Shimin had not given the next instruction for a long time, Du Ruhui simply called out a few times.

When Li Shimin came to his senses, he immediately said cautiously: "Your Majesty, since the situation in Luoyang is beyond our expectations, should the 50,000 Tang troops who have been sent to Jiangdu change their original deployment?" ”

"Change? What's there to change? ”

Li Shimin said coldly: "The war report said that Yang Guang had already left Luoyang, but according to the distance between Luoyang and Jiangdu, he still has some time before he can return to Jiangdu." ”

"As long as we can take advantage of this time and try to attract some famous generals of the Great Sui and the group of people in Wagangzhai, we can barely recover some losses."

Yang Guang is very strong, there is no doubt about this, but don't forget that there is another sentence - it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

As long as Yang Guang can be left unavailable, then it is undoubtedly a fantasy for him to want to fight with the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Li Shimin's previous plan specifically for the Great Sui could not only not be canceled, but also had to be carried out as soon as possible, only in this way could Yang Guang be given a fatal blow when he triumphed, so that Yang Guang's glory could not last too long.

On the other side, Jiangdu Palace.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

I don't know how long I slept, Yang Guang was awakened by a rapid voice.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that there were still candles burning in the study.

Looking at the sky outside, it seems to be just a little cloudy.

Yang Guang rubbed his eyes, only to find that it was Xiao Sanzi who woke him up.

"If something is not important, you can pack up and get the board." Like everyone else, when Yang Guanggang woke up, he would also get up.

The third son was frightened, and explained with a sad face: "It's not the slave who wants to wake you up, but the generalissimo and the general are coming to see Your Majesty at the same time." ”

"Huh? Where are they? ”

"Right outside the door."

"Xuan!"

Hearing that it was Sima Dejia and Lai Hu'er, Yang Guang sobered up a lot in an instant, and subconsciously wiped his face.

"I've seen Your Majesty!" After a moment, the two men came in and saluted.

"Okay, don't say too much irrelevant words, let's get straight to the point." Yang Guang stared at the two of them and said slowly: "Coming to me so early, there must be something big, right?" ”
