Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 196

Li Zhiyun led his army to Taiyuan, and the situation got out of control in an instant.Previously, Liu Wuzhou was able to fight Li Shimin with his own strength, but when Li Zhiyun's troops joined the war, the advantage of Tang Jun's side skyrocketed in an instant.

After Liu Wuzhou learned of the arrival of reinforcements from the Tang army and Song Jingang's death, he immediately understood that the current situation was very unfavorable to him.Either withdraw to Mayi, or fight the Tang army to decide the outcome.

"Your Majesty, the Turks are gone!"

Liu Wuzhou's army camp, the general looked for Liu Wuzhou to report.

"Heh, this group of thieves is like this. If the situation is unfavorable, they will abandon us. Don't make a fuss." Liu Wuzhou gritted his teeth and wanted to eat Turkic people.

Xun Xiang worried and said: "Your Majesty, Li Zhiyun sent someone to send news that King Song has died in the battle at Meiliangchuan, Huang Ziying was killed, and Yu Chigong surrendered. He told us to give up resistance immediately."

"fart!"

boom!
Liu Wu Zhou kicked over the weapon rack and glared at him, "What is he? If he says surrender, he surrenders. I will kill him! And Yu Chigong!"

He treated Yu Chigong very favorably. He thought that Yu Chigong was someone who would repay his kindness and entrust him with important tasks, but he didn't expect him to surrender to Li Tang.

This is betrayal!

"This traitor really deserves to die." Xun Xiang clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, now Li Shimin's army is encircling and attacking, and Li Zhiyun's troops are attacking from the rear, so we need to prepare early."

Liu Wuzhou's eyes were cold, and he shouted: "Go and tell Li Shimin and Li Zhiyun that I want to fight with them!"

Hearing this, Xun Xiang gritted his teeth and showed hesitation.

"What's the matter, why don't you go!" Seeing that Xun Xiang didn't move, Liu Wuzhou asked immediately.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say at the end, please listen to me, Your Majesty."

"Could you tell me to retreat?" Liu Wuzhou guessed.

Xun Xiang nodded and said seriously: "Your Majesty, Li Shimin has an army of [-], and Li Zhiyun supports [-] soldiers. Now that the Turks have fled, with the soldiers and horses in our hands, it is even a contract to fight. If we fight, we may not be able to defeat the Tang army. If we return to Mayi, we may still be able to hold the city and plan for the future."

Liu Wuzhou stared at him for a long time, then suddenly stepped forward, clutching the skirt of Xunxiang's clothes, staring at Xunxiang.

"You idiot, since you know that Tang Jun has [-] troops this time, even if we return to Mayi, do you think Tang Jun will let us go? Don't you know what it means to cut grass and roots? Do you think Li Shimin is a good stubble!"

Pushing away suddenly, Xun Xiang fell to the ground.

Liu Wuzhou was condescending, and said coldly: "If we want to survive, we can only fight Tang Jun, otherwise we will die!"

"Have you heard clearly!" Liu Wuzhou shouted.

Cold sweat dripped down the side of Xunxiang's face, and the little chicken pecked at the rice and nodded.

"I will understand at the end."

After receiving Liu Wuzhou's request for a battle, Li Shimin immediately sent a letter to Li Zhiyun to join him, and the two armies met in Yuci.

Tang army camp.

"Zhiyun!"

When the two brothers met, there was no nonsense, and Li Shimin came up with a bear hug.

"My good brother." Li Shimin pursed his lips, head to head, and patted Li Zhiyun's shoulder vigorously.

"Good fight, good fight!"

Li Zhiyun grinned and slapped his shoulders in brotherly way.

"Second brother, it's you who played well, the younger brother is just a trivial effort."

Li Shimin let go of him, put his hands on his shoulders, and said seriously: "I'm not just talking about the Battle of Hedong. Without your persistence in Tongguan, Wang Shichong would have succeeded. If you hadn't planned the battle of Hedong, Pujin Pass would have been lost. , Song Jingang and Aoshe set up a surprise attack on Guanzhong, we are the sinners of Datang!"

As the saying goes, if there is no comparison, there is no harm. Li Yuanji played like a tuoxiang, while Li Zhiyun played flawlessly.

Li Shimin often thinks, he was born by the same father, why the gap between brothers is bigger than the gap between humans and dogs!
He really couldn't figure it out, and couldn't figure it out.

During the confrontation in Taiyuan, he sent someone to tell Li Yuanji to tentatively harass Liu Wuzhou in the rear to cooperate with his frontal battle.

But Li Yuanji's fighting is not as good as shrinking back and defending the city.

Li Zhiyun praised each other commercially, "Second brother, if you didn't contain Liu Wuzhou's troops in Taiyuan and solve the siege of Jinyang, my younger brother would have no chance of defeating Song Jingang."

"Okay, let's go."

"Walk."

Everyone enters the account and discusses the war.

"At present, Liu Wuzhou has a large army of [-], mainly stationed at the Xiamu Post, [-] miles away from Jinyang. There is a search. At present, our army has reached [-] troops, as long as we guard against Liu Wuzhou's cavalry, we will surely win." Fang Xuanling explained to the crowd.

Du Ruhui said: "How about the cavalry that Fang Canjun mentioned?"

"According to the scouts' reconnaissance, the armor is fairly complete, and everyone carries a bow."

Du Ruhui murmured: "Looking at it this way, Liu Wuzhou is likely to use this cavalry army to surprise our army."

"Not bad." Li Shimin said: "Before our army fought against Liu Wuzhou's soldiers and horses, this cavalry army was mostly used for surprise attacks, and the number of times it appeared on the frontal battlefield was very small."

Li Zhiyun said: "If this is the case, why don't we deliberately sell a loophole to Liu Wuzhou, please enter the urn."

Changsun Wuji asked, "Please speak carefully, King Chu."

Li Zhiyun nodded and said: "It's actually not difficult. The use of cavalry is nothing more than to attack the flanks, cover the army's charge, and disrupt the formation of the army. Now that we know the existence of this cavalry, then as long as the flanks are exposed during the battle , just lure it to attack.”

"What if Liu Wuzhou is not fooled?" Changsun Wuji asked.

Li Zhiyun said: "It's better if he doesn't fall for it. Our army's cavalry just happened to attack his flank. We have a large army of [-], and we fought well on the frontal battlefield. There is absolutely no possibility of losing. Now the weaker side is Liu Wuzhou, not us."

The crowd meditated.

At this time, the veteran Qu Tutong said: "It's better for us to preemptively control the cavalry and use the cavalry to control the cavalry. The large army is the cover for the cavalry, involving Liu Wuzhou's main force, and forcing Liu Wuzhou to send cavalry to intercept our army's cavalry."

After the words fell, Li Shimin thought for a while, and said: "It's okay, use Zhiyun's strategy first, if Liu Wuzhou is not fooled, then we will follow what General Qutu said. Zhiyun, what do you mean?"

"My little brother has no objection."

"Okay." Li Shimin nodded, and then his face straightened, and he said solemnly: "Everyone, this battle will determine the outcome. I hope that the generals will be ready to fight. Don't be careless. If anyone does not follow the military order, don't blame the king for his ruthless military law. "

"Obey!" All the generals cupped their fists.

Immediately afterwards, Li Shimin began to assign tasks.

The cavalry, led by Hou Junji, Qu Tutong, Qin Qiong, and Xie Shufang, was always ready to attack.

The infantry is commanded by the other six generals under Li Shimin's command and the generals from Li Zhiyun's side.

[-] soldiers and horses were integrated, and each general had more than [-] soldiers under his command.

This is a battle of prosperity!
