At Li Maozhen's feet knelt three generals.

"You just said that all 10,000 stone of grain were burned?" Li Maozhen didn't see any anger on her face, and her tone was very calm, as if she was talking to the three of them about her family's shortcomings.

The three generals trembled, "Cavalry, the enemy is all cavalry, out of nowhere, our army is caught off guard, and it is too late." One man had the courage to say intermittently.

"Was it caught off guard, or was it careless?" Li Maozhen actually smiled. No one dared to reply.

"Do you know that if your grain and grass hadn't been delivered, our army would have captured Huazhou at this moment?" Li Maozhen's tone became more and more gentle.

The three of them seemed to have lost all their strength and sat down on the ground.

Li Maozhen waved his hand, and the knife and axe behind the three of them swung down, and the three heads rolled to the ground.

Li Maozhen sighed, it's not that he wants to kill people, he has always been tolerant and generous to his subordinates, and he is sympathetic to his soldiers, so many people are working hard for him, but these days are really hot, in order to attack Huazhou, he took out his old book, don't look at only 40,000 troops, of which 10,000 are the real elites who started with him, I thought that Huazhou would be captured, but I didn't expect to lose the army.

Forget it, I don't know where a cavalry came from, out of nowhere, constantly invading the grain road, burning 5,000 today, destroying 10,000 tomorrow, how much grain can he have?

As a last resort, he sent heavy troops to protect the baggage troops.

I didn't expect to be succeeded by them.

The scouts had already ascertained that the cavalry consisted of only 3,000 men.

The grain road escorted by 10,000 troops actually let them tear their mouths, and 10,000 stones of grain and grass were burned.

How does this make Li Maozhen not angry?

It's not that he thinks this cavalry is strong, but that his generals are careless.

Over the years, as he continued to win victories and gradually expanded his territory, the generals had begun to slacken, and there were signs of fighting for power.

He smelled some kind of danger coming.

If Huazhou can't go down in one go, its own plan is meaningless.

The emperor was in Tongguan, and he didn't know what the outcome of the battle with Li Hanzhi was, because of the blockade of Tongguan, his scouts could not find out the situation in the river.

However, he is not very worried, Li Hanzhi has been famous for a long time, even if he loses, he will not be defeated so quickly, right?

And the strength of Tang Ting, Li Maozhen can feel it clearly through various eyeliners in Chang'an, don't look at the emperor to kill Han Jian, but he didn't rely on real skills, he used sneak attack tricks.

Han Jian, a Caizhou thief, has lived a good life all these years, and the tendons on his body have loosened, and he will be bitten to death by the emperor's child.

Li Maozhen despised it in her heart.

really fought, Li Maozhen has absolute confidence in his subordinates.

The Divine Army is nothing more than a dog defending the city.

"Don't worry, father, as long as you attack again, Huazhou will go!" A burly general beside him said.

This person is Li Maozhen's fake son Li Jiyun, the first brave general in the Fengxiang army, and his strength is superb.

When Li Maozhen saw him, half of the stone in his heart fell, "Pass the order to go down, attack Huazhou, don't seal the knife for three days, and the children in the city will take the money and silk, and Ren Er and others will take it for themselves!" ”

More than a dozen heralds scattered behind him.

After a while, the Fengxiang army outside the entire Huazhou City thundered with joy, sweeping away the previous decline.

In the river.

Large and small vehicles stretched for more than ten miles towards Tongguan. Li Ye thought that Hezhong Mansion was rich, but he didn't expect to be so rich.

There are more than 200,000 stones, countless gold, silver, and treasures, and more than 500,000 stones of salt!

Salt was a hard currency in this day and age harder than gold and silver.

No wonder the two brothers of the Wang family fought for the family property, and Li Hanzhi rushed straight to Hezhong Mansion like a mad dog.

Man dies for money, and birds die for food.

The two salt pans in Hezhong Mansion have always been under the control of the imperial court's salt and iron envoys, and they can collect millions of stone salt every year, so the Tang court can still make Yizong and Xizong live an extremely luxurious and erosive life under the condition of scarce taxes.

After Huangchao captured Chang'an and fled to Shuzhong, these two salt pans fell into the hands of Wang Chongrong, the envoy of the river festival at that time.

The eunuch Tian Lingzi was unhappy, at this time Chang'an was ruined by the Yellow Nest, and he was anxious to make money, so he moved Wang Chongrong's mind, and united Fengxiang Jiedu to make Li Guochang and Suining Jiedu to make Zhu Mei to rob.

Wang Chongrong saw that Tian Lingzi and Zhu Mei were menacing, and deceived Li Keyong, saying that the court not only wanted to beat me, but also killed you.

Li Keyong was still a hot-blooded young man, more rebellious and relatively simple, without saying a word, picked up a knife and rode on a horse, joined Wang Chongrong, divided two by two, and defeated Tian Lingzi, Li Guochang, and Zhu Mei.

Zhu Mei surrendered to Li Keyong with her backhand and captured Chang'an, which was for Zhu Mei's rebellion.

Wang Chongrong took a risk, and did not hesitate to turn his face with the court, which shows how profitable Yanchi is.

It's a pity that I came in a hurry this time, I didn't prepare, I couldn't take so many things with me, how much grain could be towed, and as for the salt, I didn't have enough strength to deliver it.

The gold and silver money were of little use, and a small part was rewarded to 500 pro-soldiers, and most of them were rewarded to the Hezhong army.

The morale of the army in the river was happy and high.

When I went, I hurried up and came back full of money, and not only the problem of saving the troops was solved, but also the problem of food.

Li Yun was startled when he saw the battle under Tongguan.

Li Ye laughed, he has been poor for so long, and today he feels like an emperor.

But I still can't let go of the 500,000 stone salt in my heart, the wealth is moving, the salt pond itself is not blessed, but the salt can't be thrown to Wang Ke like this.

is still the same sentence, Tianyu does not go to blame.

At present, Zhang Cunjing's army and Zhou Dewei's army are facing off in Xizhou.

Li Hanzhi didn't know where to go.

If you don't hurry up and make money, what are you waiting for?

So he ordered Xue Guangheng to form a moving brigade with a thousand Praetorian Guards to move the things of Hezhong Mansion to Tongguan.

Thinking of moving, Shaanxi and Yuzhou can't be idle.

If possible, Li Ye even wanted to dismantle the bricks of the city wall in Shaanxi and Yuzhou and transport them back to Tongguan.

In the open space outside the west city of Tongguan, the 6,000 soldiers were divided into four arrays, including the Praetorian Guard, Li Yun's Huazhou Army, Gao Xingzhou's Shence Army, Li Hanzhi's soldiers, and the 20,000 Hezhong Army brought by himself. Li Ye suddenly felt a little complicated, after all, it is not a good thing that there are too many mountains in the army.

Rectification is imperative.

But it's not imminent!

There is still a bloody battle waiting ahead.

Most of the 6,000 men were wounded, but they were in good spirits and sharp-eyed.

Li Ye vaguely remembered that in history, Zhu Wen and Li Maozhen competed for Guanzhong, and Liu Zhijun, the general of the Liang army, broke Li Maozhen's 60,000 army, and it seemed that there were only 5,000 people.

Li Ye didn't dare to compare with Zhu Wen, Zhu Wen's subordinates were all elites in a hundred battles, and the generals were fierce and not like people.

Zhu Wen has a bad reputation, and the history books have belittled him, and later generations only remember his absurdity and cruelty, as well as Li Ke's fierce generals with his subordinates, what thirteen Taibao, Yi'er Army and so on.

But the truth is that Li Keyong was defeated and retreated at the hands of Zhu Wen, and several times he was ready to abandon his hometown in Hedong and escape into the desert.

It wasn't until Li Cunmiao was born out of thin air, and there were bloody battles that he turned the tide.

And Li Ye's Datang also needs a bloody battle!
