Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 939 Plan

It was still this night, and it was still in Guyuan County.

"Is that all?" Suo Zhou, with a bushy beard like a savage, stared at Huangfu Li, his gaze was like an eagle soaring in the sky seeing a hare running on the ground.

"There are no omissions." Huangfu Li lowered his head, concealing the strangeness in his eyes, and the figure of Li Zhengbao, whom he entrusted earnestly before leaving, flashed in his mind.

Liang Luoren sighed: "When His Majesty was the former Sui Ying Yang Lang General, he mentioned that although Li Zhengbao seldom studied, he was indeed talented, as expected."

Suo Zhou snorted, "The method is vicious."

Based on Liu Heier's previous marching style, it is indeed very likely that he would choose to go out to invite the battle at the beginning of the battle in order to defeat the enemy's spirit. This person has only been in the army with his uncle for half a year, but his courage is outstanding, and there are few rivals in the whole army.

More than a month ago, Dou Gui, the deputy head of the Lingzhou Road, led an army to attack, Liu Heier went out to invite a battle, and killed five generals of the Tang army.

If Li Zhengbao can successfully block Liu Hei'er out of the pass, he will almost die, and then mobilize the troops from the left and right towns, and then welcome the Tang army into the city... In that case, the Tang army will not only be able to control the city smoothly, but also It can also easily conquer the left and right towns that form an angle with that city, and block the entrances and exits in the north and south directions.

At that time, Liang Jun can only hope to take back the city by storming... But this possibility is very low, and he must beware of the Tang army splitting troops from the north and south to outflank and cut off the retreat.

But if they couldn't take back that city, Liang Jun would have no way to recover. Could it be that they expected to defeat the elite soldiers of the Tang Army who could defeat the Turks in a field battle outside Guyuan County?
A few months ago, Liang Luoren was defeated by Guan Guogong Ren Gui outside the county seat in this way, and fled all the way.

Even if he didn't choose to fight in the field, but defended the county seat, Liang Luoren didn't have much confidence. The Tang army was not as good at attacking the city as the grassland tribes, and Guyuan County was not as strong as Tongwan City.

What's more, being trapped in the county seat, the Tang army in the direction of Longzhou is likely to send troops. Although the heavy snow will make the siege more difficult, it will also make it difficult for the Liang army in Shimenguan, Lingzhou and other places to come to rescue in time.

The main military reason why Liang Luoren and Suo Zhou were very confident in defending Guyuan was that the city area had a shielding function for Guyuan.

That's why Liang Luoren said that Li Zhengbao did have some good eyesight, and Suo Zhou said that Li Zhengbao's plan was vicious.

"Catch him?" Suo Zhou's idea was very simple, just catch him and kill him.

Liang Luoren shook his head, "After all, His Majesty bought it back from the Tang army. If you just kill him like this, I'm afraid the army's morale will be unstable."

Suo Zhou was very indifferent to this, and muttered a few words in a low voice, but Huangfu Li was thoughtful... Although there is no conclusive evidence, the reason for capturing and killing Li Zhengbao to shake the morale of the army seems not sufficient.

"I've heard the name of Li Huairen for a long time..." Liang Luoren smiled a few times, and said leisurely, "I heard that the King of Handan in the Tang Dynasty is like the King of Qin?"

Huangfuli suddenly realized, "King Xia intends to lure the enemy deep?"

Liang Luoren said with a sneer: "In the battle of Jingzhou, Li Huairen led the Chinese army's flag to fight in person."

Now even Suo Zhou understood. After all, Qin Wang Li Shimin and Handan Wang Li Huairen, the two famous generals of the Tang clan, were too famous for their deaths in this respect.

But Li Shan himself doesn't think so. He chooses to go into battle in person because he often sees the opportunity of a battle, and that is often the moment of a decisive battle. The personal guards are about to go to support, and even a few people have even done things like flying kites with thousands of enemy soldiers hanging from them.

"Really coming?"

"Very likely." Liang Luoren licked his lips, "If he succeeds, Tang Jun will definitely be defeated!"

"Even if we can't invade Jingzhou, Yuanzhou can protect itself. If we can capture and kill Li Huairen..."

Huangfuli was a little bit worried. If Li Shan was really killed, the Tang army would be defeated... He knew it well. He experienced the two disastrous defeats of Li Shenfu and Ren Gui. Fuzhou has not drawn much troops.

If Liang Luoren chooses to go south, it is very likely that he will sweep Jingzhou and Ningzhou, cross the river and detour, attack Longzhou back and forth, and half of the Guannei Road will be swallowed by him.

The court did not deploy troops so quickly, and the remaining troops were likely to be concentrated in Chang'an to hold on. If the Liang division quickly went south and attacked everywhere, they might be able to take the entire Guannei Road.

"That Erlang from the Liu family, let him secretly inform Tang Jun." Liang Luoren looked at Huangfu Li, "There is no need to tell the truth."

"Yes."

"You go back first, be careful on the road."

"Yes."

Watching Huangfu Li leave, Liang Luoren said in a low voice: "If you want to trick the Tang army, or even make the King of Handan come to battle in person, you have to lose Nanguan Town first."

Suo Zhouchi asked, "What about the city?"

"That city can't be lost." Liang Luoren shook his head, "Li Zhengbao is going to that city at dawn, and everything is on hold..."

After discussing for a long time, although it was still dark outside the window, it was already early in the morning. Suozhou yawned and went out. He is a member of the Tiele tribe. Being illiterate in writing, not good at intrigue, nor liking it, Liang Luoren was a little worried, and arranged it in great detail.

The snowflakes blown wildly by the north wind got into his collar mischievously. Suozhou shivered and patted hard a few times. Suddenly his body froze and he couldn't help but look back, although he knew it was dark. Nothing can be seen in the night sky.

If everything remains on hold, but if you want to give up Nanguan Town to lure the enemy in, that is tantamount to giving up on Liu Heier... Originally, Suo Zhou thought that Li Zhengbao was a bit miserable, but now that he thinks about it, Liu Heier is even worse.

On the same night, outside Baiquan County, which is nearly a hundred miles away from Guyuan County, Li Shan looked at the several letters in his hand dumbfounded, namely Cui Xin, Princess Pingyang, Ling Jing and Wang Renbiao.

Fortunately, Wang Renbiao was clever and notified Princess Pingyang at the critical moment, otherwise the loss would be settled... The Luo family is determined to make things difficult for me!
Li Shan was thinking in his heart that he kept Xue Wanche and Feng Li in the army. Prince Li Jiancheng or that old fox Pei Shiju could only use Li Gaoqian, Luo Shou, and Luo Yang, and most of them were useless.

Even if Li Gaoqian clamored for the soldiers under his command, Chai Shao was ordered to restrain the imperial army of the Beiya, and there would be no troubles, while the Changlin army of the forbidden garden... After the first battle in Tiantai Mountain this year, the East Palace was reprimanded by Li Yuan several times because of this. It may be possible to dismantle the organizational system and merge into the Beiya Forbidden Army, but Li Yuan has not yet made up his mind to store easily, so he has not had time to do it yet.

The Changlin Army has about 3000 people, and their combat strength is not strong. Li Shimin once said personally that it is nothing more than an attack by a large army, and only a few hundred warriors can defeat the enemy with the personal guards of the generals of Tiance Mansion.

But it’s different now. Luo Yi returned to the court, and it is said that he brought back more than a hundred personal guards. These personal guards are likely to be stuffed into the Changlin Army as grassroots generals, which will increase the combat power of the Changlin Army in a short time. .

No matter what method Pei Shiju uses, Luo Yi must be the most critical chess piece.

Li Shan felt a little regretful, if this matter could be arranged in advance, maybe Luo Yi could be driven out of Chang'an again, then the situation would be much more stable.
