Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 718 Must kill this old thief
At this time, Luo Cheng, who was rumored to be a dragon slaying warrior, fell into deep thought while looking at the messages sent back from the pass.

Things are changing.

But what really made him fall into contemplation was not that there are twelve emperors in the world today.

What makes people look serious is two consecutive bad news, one is that Xue Shixiong, the Yin of Fanyang Mansion, was killed, and the other is that Li Jingzhan, the pacifier of Hebei, died.

Xue Shixiong's death made Luo Cheng very depressed. Originally, he had been sending people to contact Xue Shixiong, just to get this general into his camp. At first Xue Shixiong was hesitant, but finally it was a letter from Luo Cheng Impressed and convinced him, and finally decided to change flags.

At that time, the governor of Beiping, Dugu Tuan, who was stuck between Fan Yang and An Dong, also expressed his willingness to change the flag. This is really exciting news.

The Beiping Governor's Mansion guarded by Dugu usurpers the three prefectures of Beiping, Yuyang, and Anle, and controls the most important Great Wall fortresses of Linyuguan, Lulongsai, Wuzhongzhai, Miyun City, and Yanle City. His attachment is extremely important for Luo Cheng to enter the customs.

But who would have thought that Luo Chengcheng was already preparing to enter the customs, but Dugu Zun played him a trick.

He not only killed Luo Cheng's envoy, but also ran to Fan Yang, killed Xue Shixiong and his eldest son Xue Wanshu, took Fan Yang's mansion, and took Fan Yang's soldiers.

Now Dugu usurped not only owned the three counties of Yuyang, Yanle, Beiping, but also Fanyang Mansion, and took the opportunity to control Boling County, with more than 3 soldiers and horses under his command.

And Dou Jiande occupies most of Hebei, owns nine counties, and proclaims Emperor Jianxia in Hejian County.

Wang Xuba occupies Shanggu, and Wei Daoer occupies Hengshan.

After Li Jingzhan's death, there were still some old troops guarding Zhao Jun.

Now in the whole of Hebei, there are only these four forces left, among which Dou Jiande is the strongest, followed by the Dugu usurper of Fan Yangfu.

Li Jing's old department is struggling to support, and may be surrounded by Xia Jun at any time.

Wei Daoer's main force is in Hedong, and there is only one Hengshan County in Hebei.

Luo Cheng can temporarily ignore Wei Dao'er and Wang Xuba. They are stationed in the Taihang Mountain area and have not blocked Luo Cheng's way to enter the pass. The most troublesome thing now is Dugu Tuan and Dou Jiande.

One blocked the pass of the Great Wall, and the other blocked the way to the south of Hebei.

Both of them are powerful.

Dou Jiande is obviously very smart. After he seized Hejian, he secretly reached a non-aggression agreement with Dugu Zun.Dou Jiande did not attack Fanyang Boling, and Dugu usurped did not go south to conquer Hejian.

The two of them obviously regarded Luo Cheng outside the customs as a big enemy, and didn't want to give Luo Cheng a chance to go south.

Now Dugu Juan guards the Great Wall wholeheartedly to prevent Luo Cheng from going out.

Dou Jiande also took this opportunity to attack the remnants of Li Jing in Zhaojun with all his strength.

"I must kill the Dugu old thief!" Luo Cheng said angrily.

Luo Cheng was not in a hurry to send his troops to enter the customs before. Firstly, it was because Dugu Zun expressed his willingness to join him at the time, and secondly, the Zhongwu army was indeed not ready to enter the customs.

So while Luo Cheng stepped up his preparations, he sent people to keep in touch with Dugu Yu and Xue Shixiong, hoping to make peace without a fight.

But who would have expected such a result, this Dugu usurper really impressed Luo Cheng.

Putting down this message, Luo Cheng picked up another message.

It was sent by Siye, saying that his communication with Yun Dingxing was not very good recently. Although the Monan Jiedu envoy was looked down upon by the Luo Cheng brothers, he sold his daughter for glory, and then killed his nephew for glory. People, but this guy's attitude is wavering now, with an attitude of sitting on the ground and raising prices.

But now Luo Cheng and the others can't ignore him, because he occupies the land of Hetao, if Siye goes south, he will definitely threaten Siye's back, if this bastard attracts Turkic people again, it will be even more troublesome.

Now there is information showing that the emperor has gone crazy and used all kinds of stupid tricks.

Not only sent people to Mobei to recruit Turkic people to go south, but even sent people to ask for help from Western Turks, intending to use Turkic soldiers to deal with Siye and Liu Wuzhou in the north of Hedong Dynasty.

Even now the Turkic tribes that Monan is attached to are a little bit ready to move, and Siye has to put Princess Yicheng under house arrest, but this has also aroused dissatisfaction among many Turkic people.

So now Siye has to concentrate on these Turkic people in Dingxiang, temporarily unable to go south.

And Liu Wuzhou of Daibei captured the three counties, but Yang Yichen and Xiao Yu blocked the passage to the north of Taiyuan. At the same time, Daibei just experienced the Turkic looting last time, so it has not recovered yet, more than 20 mouths, autumn harvest Later, there was not enough food and grass for his own food. Now Liu Wuzhou didn't even have enough food for the army, and he killed Wang Rengong to start an army. Many generals of Mayi also secretly refused to accept him.

So now it is still a struggle, on the one hand, it has to fulfill the promise to release food to relieve the people, and on the other hand, it has to frighten and appease the subordinate soldiers, and wants to go south, but the independent army is not the opponent of Yang Yichen and Xiao Yu, especially the lack of food.

As a veteran of the battlefield, Luo Cheng knew very well that a war was not simply a fight.

What he involved was not only the mobilization of soldiers and horses, but also the mobilization of food and grass, the preparation of military supplies, and even the recruitment of civilian husbands. All things were summed up.

That is, we must have money and food, as well as soldiers and people.

The morale of Daibei's army is not stable now, and Liu Wuzhou dare not go south to attack Taiyuan at this time. He is short of money and food, and he dare not send troops.He kept sending people to ask Siye and Luo Cheng for money and food, and to send more reinforcements.

But Luo Cheng didn't care about him at this time.

He has to get rid of Yuanshi first, at least he has to take Fuyuchuan first, and then force him to negotiate after severely injuring Yuanshi, so as to promote peace and hurt Yuanshi, so that he can't think about it easily, and he also wants to fight. He has no ability to pose a big threat to Luo Cheng.

After all, Yuanshi still has a population of at least 300 million, 30 soldiers, and can mobilize [-] to [-] soldiers. If Luo Cheng doesn't deal with him first, and just goes south like this, this backyard will be too dangerous.

The good news is that Du Fuwei withstood the pressure in the south of the Yangtze River. Yang Guang has not yet sent troops across the river, but the situation in the south of the Yangtze River is also chaotic. Seizing Yuhang and several counties in Kuaiji should have been places that Du Fuwei could have seized.

And Zuo Caixiang and Lin Shihong also occupied several counties in the west of the south of the Yangtze River. Du Fuwei made wedding clothes for them instead. , Proclaim the emperor and build the country.

Luo Yi, who was far away in Annan, wrote to Luo Cheng, telling him that the plan to go north had also encountered some difficulties.

First of all, Lin Yiguo invaded and harassed at this time, and then Ning Changzhen, Feng An, Gao Facheng, Xian Baoche and other local tycoons in the south of Lingnan also raised their troops to separate one side and attack each other. This caused Luo Yi to go north to the Central Plains, but There is no way out.

However, Shi'an County, which occupies the main land route back to the Central Plains, is the land of Guilin, but it is guarded by Li Xizhi who is loyal to the imperial court.

So now Luo Yi is blocked by these people in Annan and can't go north unless he leaves alone by boat, but Luo Yi is unwilling to leave these soldiers and horses belongings in Annan, so now he can only fight against the Linyi people while fighting To fight against these local separatist forces in Lingnan, it will be a situation of chaos and chaos.

After reading the information, Luo Cheng frowned even more.

The Battle of Fuyuchuan must be speeded up and ended as soon as possible, so that troops can be mobilized to join the battle in the Central Plains.Today's situation is more chaotic, but also more clear.

"Report! Marshal, Fuyu River was a great victory. General Luo Shixin launched the battle to capture Fuyu City on October [-]th. It took only half a day to attack the top of the city. After a day of fierce fighting, he captured Fuyu City, captured the enemy Shuai Yuan Jiantu alive, and beheaded him. More than [-] ranks, captured more than [-] soldiers, captured more than [-] households, and countless livestock such as cattle and sheep."

Luo Cheng's brows finally eased a little due to the urgent delivery of good news.

Fuyu City is broken, then the other forty cities in Fuyuchuan will have no backbone support, and they can all be obtained.

"Go invite Wei Changshi, I want to ask Yuan Taizuo to write a letter!"
