The secret realm of the Heavenly Dao was opened, and Li Ye, who was present, was included in it without any suspense, but Li Keyong, who was in Taiyuan City at the time, did not receive even the slightest "call".

The official army crusaded against Hedong, which was originally a coalition of four towns, with different vassals and different thoughts, and the reason why they were able to act in unison was to submit to Li Ye's will. Now that Li Ye is not there, Rao is Pinglu army has Liu Dazheng in charge, with his prestige, it is enough to lead the Pinglu army, but it is far from enough to deter the soldiers and horses of the other three towns.

At this moment, it is naturally the best time for the Hedong Army to counterattack the official army.

Looking at the large camp outside the city that stretched to the end of the field of vision, Li Ke was resolute with his eyes: "Li Ye bullied people and led the thief army of the four towns to attack my Hedong, so that the soldiers and civilians in Hedong suffered countless casualties. The thief army lost its commander, and this was the opportunity for God to give me a counteroffensive in Hedong. ”

Taibao Fu Cunzhen was not worried: "At present, the thief army is large, with 400,000 people, and after a series of battles in Hedong, the strength of the army is less than half of the opponent's, is it not enough to attack out of the city at this time?"

Li Keyong sneered, "Although the thief army has 400,000 people, but the vassals are different, my Hedong army is united, and we only need to storm the Pinglu military camp." As for the soldiers and horses of the other three towns, it is enough to send some soldiers and horses to contain them. At this time, Li Ye was not in the army, and Zhaoyi, Henghai, and Tianping Town, although they would listen to Liu Dazheng's orders, were just superficial. ”

"Unlike when Li Ye was there, the towns were eager to make meritorious contributions, so the attack was scrambling, Li Ye was not there, self-protection became the primary need, and the soldiers and horses of the three towns would never put their soldiers and horses in danger and risk losses!"

Fu Cunxian hugged his fists and said: "The king of the county is wise!"

Li Ke's words are actually very clear, when Li Ye was there, he led the army to win consecutive battles, and all towns were confident, so they fought for merit, and now Li Ye is not there, and the towns are not sure whether Liu Dazheng can defeat Li Keyong, so they will not be reckless.

Li Keyong turned around and looked around at everyone, his eyes were like iron: "The survival of Taiyuan depends on this battle! I, a native of Hedong, have a brave soldier and a few generals, can I really not defeat the Pinglu Army? I will fight tomorrow and fight with the Pinglu Army!"

The Pinglu Army Battalion, the Chinese Army's Big Tent, Liu Dazheng and several members of the army were discussing the military situation.

Although Li Ye left the camp, the Chinese army tent, which was the center of the whole army, had to continue to operate, and Liu Dazheng temporarily acted as the commander-in-chief, so he naturally became the temporary master of the Chinese army's big tent.

It's just that when Liu Dazheng was dealing with various military affairs, he never went to sit in the head of the big tent, but moved all the official documents to his usual position.

At midnight, before Liu Dazheng went to rest, a sergeant outside the tent suddenly came to report that there was an abnormality in Taiyuan City.

Liu Dazheng left the big tent, came to the watchtower, looked at Taiyuan City, and sure enough, he saw the figures and buildings there, as if a large number of soldiers and horses were mobilizing - in order to facilitate the observation of the city, the watchtower of the Pinglu Army was built much higher than the Taiyuan city wall, but due to the relationship between the perspectives, it was still not so clear.

After confirming the abnormality, Liu Dazheng did not hesitate, and when he returned to the big tent, he ordered the drums to gather the generals and hold a military meeting.

The generals arrived soon, Liu Dazheng first reported the situation, and then said: "Your Highness is not in the army, and the three armies lack a strong commander, this is the best time for a counteroffensive in Hedong." Now it seems that Li Keyong is indeed ready to act, and you must be ready to face tomorrow. ”

Li Ye and Feihong Dashi and others entered the secret realm, and the great monks inside and outside Taiyuan City walked away, without the great monks to hinder them, and now the two armies have returned to the road of pure military struggle, and no one takes advantage or suffers.

The next day, Liu Dazheng gathered his generals early and prepared to face the battle.

Before the time came, the gate of Taiyuan City was wide open, first thousands of elite cavalry stepped out of the dust, separated the two wings, controlled the terrain, and then thousands of foot soldiers rolled out of the iron armor, gathered in the middle of the elite cavalry, set up a good formation, and formed a complete military formation.

If it is reciprocating, before noon, outside the four walls of Taiyuan City, more than a dozen military formations appeared, most of which are in the direction where the Pinglu army is located.

As soon as Liu Dazheng saw this formation, he knew that the Hedong Army was going to fight, and it was impossible for Li Keyong to play tricks at this time, so he also ordered the Pinglu Army to leave the camp and set up a large formation in the open space outside the camp to prepare for the battle.

The Hedong Army is going to fight, and the Pinglu Army will naturally not be afraid, even if there is a disadvantage in numbers, Liu Dazheng will meet him head-on. The passive tactic of defending the camp is the same as defending the city, and it will only be used when your side is at an absolute disadvantage and has no choice.

When the army came out of the camp, Liu Dazheng rode his horse to the front of the formation and looked at the Hedong Army on the opposite side.

In the center of the ironclad wall, which could not be seen at a glance, there were more than a dozen horsemen in bright armor, surrounded by a heroic general, and behind him, a huge yellow flag was waving in the wind, showing his identity as the commander. That's exactly what Li Keyong is using.

The sunlight hit Li Keyong, who was in golden armor, making him look like a god, and in front of the army, he walked slowly and made a passionate short speech to the officers and men of the Hedong Army, so as to maximize the morale of the army.

Liu Da is doing the same thing.

This matter was done quickly, after all, the pledge meeting had already been done, and there would not be many words to boost morale before the battle.

The war drums roared, and the Hedong Army took the lead in attacking, and the large infantry formation protruded, approaching the Pinglu Army without hurry.

The neat steps of tens of thousands of people stepped on the ground, the smoke and dust billowed out, the ground shook the mountains, and the footsteps combined with the sound of war drums beat on people's hearts, making people's hearts beat with a rhythm.

The Pinglu Army's infantry formation also met it, and the elite cavalry walked slowly on both wings, and the pace was the same as that of the infantry soldiers. Their task was not to charge into battle, but to defend the flanks against the opposing cavalry.

At a distance of several miles, the two armies walked for a long time.

Until the two sides were only a few hundred steps apart, after reaching the distance of the charging formation, as the drums of the two sides suddenly became heavier and denser, the ironclad array that was steadily moving forward gradually increased its speed, and finally the soldiers roared and ran, pushing like waves of smoke and dust into the opponent's military formation.

The two formations intersected, and the soldiers who rushed to the front pushed their shields and smashed them fiercely.

In the violent collision, some people fell backwards and some fell, there was a gap in the tight line, the blades had room to move, and the soldiers who followed closely behind stabbed the spears in their hands one after another.

The sound of the fierce battle instantly drowned out all sounds.

The two armies fought hard, Liu Dazheng did not fall into battle in person, as the commander of the army, what he needs to do now is to sit in the center and dispatch the Quartet.

Liu Dazheng is confident that with the combat strength of the Pinglu Army, the Hedong Army is currently incomparable.

Although the opponent has a numerical advantage in a head-to-head battle, the advantage is not huge, and before the opponent's numerical advantage is reflected, the Pinglu army can break through the opponent's military formation and defeat the opponent.

An hour passed, and the development of things was similar to what Liu Dazheng expected, and the Pinglu army gradually gained the upper hand and had the momentum of advancing vigorously.

"Although His Highness has left temporarily, the combat strength of the officers and men of the three armies is still there, how can it be so easy for the Hedong Army to win?" Liu Dazheng thought so, with a smile on his face.

But at this moment, the Hedong military formation changed.

Several suppressed military formations suddenly soared in morale, and above the 3,000-person battle formation, there were even more streamers lit up, as if they had become a whole, synthesizing into an iron-armored giant beast. Since then, the attack power of the battle array has increased dramatically.

Liu Dazheng frowned slightly, of course he knew that it was the general of the Hedong Army.

The Thirteenth Taibao of the Hedong Army, although not all of them are generals, but there are quite a few, and a few people have been beheaded by him and Shangguan Chengcheng along the way, and there are three or four more at the moment.

However, in the Pinglu Army, there are only two people, Liu Dazheng and Shangguan Chengcheng, who are military generals.

This is not surprising, the Hedong Army is based on the Northern Border Army and the Shatuo Army, both of which are border armies, and they have been fighting for many years, and it will be natural to fight more, and the Pinglu Army has only experienced the Pinghuangchao Rebellion after all.

"In the past, in the face of the generals of the Hedong Army, His Royal Highness sent troops to seize one of the roads, forming a local advantage, and after quickly defeating the opponent, he then balanced the number of generals on other fronts by switching to the battle. At that time, the generals of Hedong did not come out of the nest, and the disadvantages of the generals of the army did not appear, but at the moment, ......" A soldier looked at Liu Dazheng with a worried face.

Of course, Liu Dazheng knew what the other party meant.

At present, the whole army is out together, a head-to-head duel, the Hedong Army has generals to lead the army, the disadvantage in combat power will be made up, and it will have the upper hand, and the Pinglu Army must solve the opponent's generals if they want to win the battle formation.

"Please General Shangguan cooperate with this general to fight!" Liu Dazheng made a quick decision.

The Hedong Army has three battle formations, so Shangguan Chengcheng can fight alone, even if she can win, but one by one, she will be exhausted, not to mention, I am afraid that it will be too late.

Soon, Liu Dazheng and Shangguan Chengcheng led their headquarters to the formation, replacing the soldiers who were originally suppressed by the generals of the Hedong Army, and began to launch a counteroffensive against the Hedong Army.

With Liu Dazheng and Shangguan Allure joining, the situation immediately changed. It didn't take long for the generals of the Hedong Army in front of the two to be overwhelmed, and the light of the battle array gradually dimmed, and there was a risk of shattering at any time.

The Pinglu Army only has two generals, and the number is not as good as the Hedong Army and the Xuanwu Army, but how can Liu Dazheng and Shangguan Allure be easy to match?

The former was already a general in the era of Li Xian, and he has always been a deputy marshal in the Pinglu Army, and the latter was born in the general, grew up in the army, and accumulated a lot of money.

Two people took the lead in the battle, and the Pinglu army had the chance to win.

It can be seen that even if Li Ye is not in the army at the moment, his shaping of the Pinglu Army has already been fruitful, and this achievement will not disappear in a vacuum.

In the current battle, it is not so simple for the Hedong Army to win and draw the Lu Army, at least it has to come up with extraordinary weapons.

Does the Hedong Army have such a sharp weapon?

Yes.

Li Cunxiao, the general of the military family, is.

But now Li Cunxiao is at home.

Is there anyone else in the Hedong Army who can shoulder the burden of deciding the outcome of the war when the two armies are in a decisive battle?

And one more.

Li Keyong, who became famous at a young age, himself.
