Chapter 284: Tiger Leaping Gorge Three-way Confrontation
Although Shen Luoyan was reluctant, she still listened to Ye Lingfeng's words, and the two were not ready to continue to get along in this dark and cold death row, so they immediately set off for the stronghold outside Zhengzhou, and by the way, she met Ye Lingfeng's people, Qin Qiong, Fu Junwu, Song Yuzhi and others had different attitudes towards this beautiful military advisor.
Although Qin Qiong was almost forced into a desperate situation by Shen Luoyan's tactics before, he admired her intelligence very much, and he was very happy to be able to lead the army and train with her.
Fu Jun's graceful teeth itched, she could clearly see that the relationship between the man and woman was obviously wrong, there was definitely adultery, this hateful merry bastard, I really thought that she followed him to accompany him to travel through the rivers and lakes to see him be amorous and flirtatious, but this Shen Luoyan's talent can be affirmed by Qin Qiong and Ye Lingfeng at the same time, she still has great talent.
Song Yuzhi is very fond of this new military sister, she speaks softly, her dressing style is also unique and beautiful, she is also free to do poetry, the writing is smooth, she is full of poetry and the art of war, she knows astronomy, she knows geography, she told Song Yuzhi a lot of knowledge recorded in books, in her heart, the current Shen Luoyan is a talented woman whose intelligence is second only to her father Song Que.
After Ye Lingfeng explained, he decided to leave with only Fu Junwu, this time he was going to Li Valve to find someone, even more dangerous than the last time he collided head-on with Yuwen Valve, Yuzhi didn't have the slightest martial arts, it was better to let her stay in Zhengzhou, there were Qin Qiong and Shen Luoyan to protect her, which could ensure her safety.
And then he set off on the journey to Li Valve, accompanied by Fu Junwu, and then if he really wants to do it, he can also be a little more sure of escaping, although Li Valu has many masters, but he is still a member of the royal family, as long as he does not take the initiative to show hostility, the shrewd Li Valve's people should not take the initiative to attack him, which is not conducive to the follower of others when they raise the banner of rebellion in the future.
Calculating the current time, Zhang Xutuo, who controlled the main force of the Sui Dynasty army, had just been defeated by Li Mi, and sixty percent of his troops were lost, and the checkpoints of Luokoucang and the canal also fell into the hands of Li Mi.
He just got the news of the secret agent, Yuwen valve felt that this was a good opportunity to rebel and was about to make a move, ready to send a large number of troops to exterminate the remnants of the defeated army led by Zhang Xutuo, and then under the banner of Zhang Xutuo's rebellion, they Yuwen valve wanted to defend the slogan of Chang'an capital to take the opportunity to invade, directly abolish the Great Sui royal family, they occupied Chang'an, and established themselves as emperors.
The battle between Yuwen Valve and Zhang Xutuo was almost over now, and when Ye Lingfeng arrived, Yuwen Valve sent all the special five-tooth ships with a total of eleven ships, and Zhang Xutuo's remnants were defeated and suffered heavy losses.
In addition, this Tiger Leaping Gorge is a dangerous pass, the narrowest point is only five zhang wide, above is the towering mountain peak of thousands of walls, can overlook the entire river, as long as someone occupies the top of the mountain, from above with a boulder drop, you can easily control the river, attack the fleet, Zhang Xutuo's army can not even deal with these boulders, let alone face the Yuwen valve's five-tooth ship, immediately routed.
At this moment, a huge fleet slowly sailed into the Tiger Leaping Gorge, with the Li valve flag fluttering in the wind, and at the top of the mountain, Li Shimin, the son of Li Yuan, the owner of the Li valve, stood with his hands in his hands, proudly looking at the huge Yuwen valve fleet and the Sui army led by Zhang Xutuo, who was retreating.
Behind him, there are two young beauties with outstanding appearance and gentle temperament, the woman who is a little closer is dressed in gorgeous clothes, graceful and luxurious, it is Li Shimin's sister Li Xiuning, and the other woman is a little older, with a delicate face, with a faint aristocratic temperament, she has a slender and moving figure, and her posture is beautiful, which is the eldest grandson who will become the first queen of the Li Tang Dynasty in the future.
Li Xiuning still has a young talent around him to talk and laugh, that extraordinary temperament, slightly arrogant young man, is her fiancΓ©, the famous family after Chai Shao, he is also Li Shimin's right-hand man in the future, and he has won the trust of the Tang king.
"This Yu culture and sure enough, this Tiger Leaping Gorge is very vigilant, the fleet composed of eleven five-tooth ships is heavily guarded, swords and guns are numerous, and the golden armor is like a forest, but unfortunately our preparation is more adequate than his Yuwen Valve, you say, right? Chai Shao? Li Shimin turned his head and asked suddenly.
"Shimin has always been a good strategy, you said that our Li valve is well prepared, then naturally there is no problem, I am a martial artist, I can only fight, and the matter of guidance has to be handed over to you, Shimin, Xiuning, what do you think?" Chai Shao had a flattering smile on his face, he was obsessed with the daughter of the Lord of the First Threshold, and he was full of thoughts about how he could talk to her and make her happy.
Li Xiuning ignored him, she had never had a good impression of this licking dog who was walking around her every day, Li Shimin also coughed when he saw this scene: "Xiuning, Brother Chai asked you, why didn't you answer?" Since you asked me to take you out, you have to be obedient to the teacher, Brother Chai is an important general in this battle, you make him unhappy, what if this battle is lost? β
Li Xiuning Dai frowned slightly, since her brother spoke, she had to reluctantly respond: "My brother counted the troops many times before he set off, and our Li Valve's warships have sent fourteen ships this time, and there is an absolute advantage in numbers, and the frontal collision of troops may be slightly insufficient, but our Li Valve's combat has always relied on the art of war to win, and Yuwen Valve's tactics are not clear, so this victory is clear at a glance." β
At this time, the north was heavily affected by Hu Feng, and the woman's clothes could be described as bold and hot, even Li Xiuning, who had not yet left the cabinet, also showed her fair skin generously at this time. She was very close to Chai Shao, and at this time she turned around and spoke, bowing her head, unaware that the people around her were peeping at her.
Li Xiuning was wearing a tulle cloak on the outside and a low-cut white silk dress on the inside, squeezing the two plump jade rabbits tightly, revealing a charming ravine. In later generations, Li Tang's dressing style was also deeply influenced by Hu Feng, and it slowly evolved after Li Tang's ideological fusion of opening up and Datong.
Li Xiuning looked at his brother Li Shimin with admiration, and said with a smile: "My brother is capable, invincible, fighting on the battlefield, commanding well, everyone says that he is the true dragon emperor, this battle is well prepared, I believe that this tiger leaping gorge in the lake dragon will also help me Li Valve, exert his heavenly might, and overturn the ship of the Yuwen Valve." β
In fact, as long as they break through the Tiger Leaping Gorge natural danger, even if the army of Li Valve and Yuwen Valve joins forces to attack, this experienced Sui army sailor, they are also not afraid, the key now is that it is difficult for them to break through the encirclement, how to let the fleet advance under the rockfall offensive, this is a very important issue.
What's more, although the hundreds of miles around the upper reaches of the Tiger Leaping Gorge are deserted due to the destruction of the war, if the Yuwen valve wants to dispatch tens of thousands of troops to fight head-on with the Sui army, it will never be able to hide the eyes and ears of the people in the world.
The Sui army did not dare to step forward, but the fleet of the Yuwen valve moved forward steadily, intending to block the dangerous mouth of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, but after driving only a mile, the people on the boat were suddenly shocked to find that the bottom of the ship was constantly squeaking and crunching, and an experienced sailor, looking down, shouted in despair: "It's a wolf tooth thorn!" There are wolf fangs underneath the ship! β
This wolf thorn is a sharpened log, which needs to be placed at an angle of 45 degrees to the bottom of the river shallows, and is generally used to block the river, and the ship can directly pierce the bottom of the incoming ship, and finally cause the entire hull to leak, so that the large ship and even the fleet sink.
"Beneath this seemingly calm water, there are hundreds of wolf tooth thorn traps installed! It's a big deal. But these are the old-fashioned traps of water warfare, this Li valve is really uncreative, and the people in history are even more stupid, knowing that people will set traps, and they take the initiative to jump in one by one, for fear that the ships of their own fleet will not sink. β
Ye Lingfeng stood not far away to observe the situation, and subconsciously spoke, Fu Junwu beside him asked with some curiosity: "How do you know that this is Li Valve's handiwork?" Throw away the Yuwen Valve family, as well as the Dugu Valve, Song Valve and Li Valve, and set a trap here in Tiger Leaping Gorge, they can all do it. β
Ye Lingfeng smiled: "It's really good, but Dugu Valve won't go to this troubled water, their attitude is similar to that of Song Valve, most of the time they remain neutral, occasionally follow the trend, now that the royal family is not completely finished, they won't take the initiative to take action at Yuwen Valve so early." β
"It's possible on the Song Valve's side, after all, the Song Valve has cooperated with the royal family to help the ships of the Great Sui royal family, but setting a trap at the dangerous pass here is very likely to accidentally injure the sailors of the Great Sui army itself, Song Que's predecessors are witty and unparalleled, and they will not do such a stupid thing, and even if Song Que intends to help, he will inform me in advance, so Song Que will also rule it out."
"And if you want to set such a trap at the dangerous pass, and make hundreds of wolf tooth stabbing mechanisms, it will consume thousands of people alone, and the amount of work is amazing, and it is impossible for ordinary forces to have such idleness, except for the four major valves, there will be no one else, so I dare to be so sure, this is what Li Valve did."
"At this time, the water war is nothing more than blocking the river, sending water ghosts to rob ships, or using trebuchets to attack up and down, setting up such a mechanism is Li Valve's originality, they all like this old method invented a long time ago, Jun Wu, you take a good look, the wolf tooth thorn is only the first step, Li Valve's combo trap is not over yet."
