Man Tanghong

Chapter 61 Princess Pingyang
"What does it have to do with you if I misfortune my food? Why are you so excited?"

After reading Li Shimin's letter, Li Yuanji's face was darkened.

Li Shimin, who is a dog day, is still stubborn and still thinking about his food, otherwise he will harm his food, why is Li Shimin so excited?

"Oh!"

Li Yuanji was sullen for a while, and patted his face angrily, "Not only do you worry about my food, but you dare to transfer my soldiers? Give you face?"

In the letter, Li Shimin not only advised him not to misfortune food anymore, but also vaguely mentioned that Li Xiuning of Weizeguan was in danger under repeated attacks by the Turkic people and urgently needed help, but he had no manpower to dispatch .

Li Shentong and Li Shiji guarded the long line of defense from Shizhou to Chitangguan, and they had no spare energy to support Li Xiuning.

There is a famine in Youzhou now, Li Yi has to deal with the Turkic people and the famine in Youzhou at the same time, but there is no way to support Li Xiuning.

Li Shimin's letter stopped here.

But what he meant was self-evident.

That is to ask Li Yuanji to send the soldiers and horses from the left one and the second left military mansion that have just been built to help Li Xiuning.

In terms of blood, Li Xiuning is Li Yuanji's elder sister, and it is impossible for Li Yuanji to refuse to save her.

From the perspective of planning, Li Xiuning will be one of Li Yuanji's important allies in the future, and it is even more impossible for Li Yuanji to refuse to save him.

In Li Yuanji's heart, he also did not want to see this rare and strange woman buried in the hands of the Turkic people.

Li Yuanji knew that Li Shimin, who was a dog, was using him, so he did as Li Shimin wanted.

Li Shimin should not have suppressed him or weakened his mind on this matter.

Cuncui saw that he had recruited a group of warriors, so he wanted to make the most of what he had, and sent his men to Weizeguan to share Li Xiuning's pressure.

By the way, scrape a layer of oil from his hands to replenish the grain and grass in Weizeguan.

If Li Shimin really wanted to suppress and weaken him, he should be dispatched to the Weizhou battlefield.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are about to start a fierce battle there, and human lives will be harvested one by one like leeks.

Transfer him to Weizhou, and let the soldiers from the first left and the second commanding army mansion go to attack the enemy's central army. It only takes three times to destroy the first left and the second commanding army mansion.

"Come here, call Xie Shufang into the palace."

Li Yuanji directed at the door to give orders.

Not long after, Xie Shufang hurried to the side hall.

Li Yuanji didn't say too many pleasantries, and ordered decisively: "Xie Shufang, now you are transferred to be the deputy commander of the Zuoyi Army Mansion, leading the soldiers of the Zuoyi Army Mansion and the soldiers of the Zuo Tong Army Mansion's camp to escort fifty thousand shi of grain, Immediately rush to Weize Pass and obey Princess Pingyang's order."

This is a military order, not gossip.

Xie Shufang had no room to reply, let alone ask more questions.

Xie Shufang hurriedly bowed, "I obey the order!"

Li Yuanji waved his hand and told Xie Shufang to hurry down and get ready.

He was very generous to Li Xiuning, as long as he gave him [-] shi of grain.

If it was Li Shimin, five stones would be too much for him.

He can generously give his food to anyone, but others cannot help him generously, let alone steal or rob him.

Xie Shufang's actions were quick, and within two hours he ordered the soldiers and horses and prepared the food.

Li Yuanji went to see him off in person, and told Xie Shufang that when he arrived at Weize Pass, he must obey Li Xiuning's orders.

Li Yuanji was convinced of Li Xiuning's military talent.

When Li Yuan raised his army, he only gathered nearly [-] soldiers, and fought from Taiyuan to Guanzhong. Along the way, he worked with Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and all the civil and military soldiers under his command to develop the army to [-] to [-].

After arriving in Guanzhong, it was discovered that Li Xiuning had developed a force of 70,000 people, occupying more than half of Guanzhong, just relying on the little family property left by the Li family in Chang'an.

The reason why Li Yuan was able to lead an army of 200,000 to break through Chang'an was that Li Xiuning contributed nearly [-]% of his strength.

I don't know if it's because Li Xiuning overwhelmed the heroes of Datang with her daughter's body, making some self-respecting people unhappy and slandering Li Yuan; or Li Yuan felt that Li Xiuning's daughter's body was not suitable for publicity.

After Li Yuan captured Chang'an, Xue hid Li Xiuning and confiscated most of Li Xiuning's soldiers and horses, leaving only [-] elite soldiers for Li Xiuning to guard Weize Pass.

He said that Li Xiuning was to guard Li Tang's base camp, but Li Xiuning's military order could not leave Weize Pass at all.

Not only that, Li Yuan also sent Li Yuanji's predecessor to guard Li Tang's base camp.

Li Yuan was a nepotism, and Datang at that time was in the midst of employing people.

If Li Yuan didn't have the intention to hide Li Xiuning, why did he send Li Yuanji's predecessor there after dispatching Li Xiuning to guard Li Tang's base camp?Still mainly based on the orders of Li Yuanji's predecessor?
Li Xiuning has already proved with practical actions that her military talent is far superior to others.

As long as she has enough authority, she is more than enough to guard Li Tang's base camp.

If Li Yuan didn't hide her thoughts in the snow, why bother?
Li Yuanji didn't have Li Yuan's patriarchal idea. Li Xiuning's achievements were too dazzling, so it wouldn't hurt his self-esteem.

He only hoped that Li Xiuning was alive, and he only hoped that Xie Shufang would bring back the soldiers of the Commanding Army Mansion in one piece after they were taken out.

So he didn't mind handing over the command of the officers and men of the Commanding Army Mansion to Li Xiuning completely.

If he was the commander in chief of the army this time, he would even undo the shackles that Li Yuan put on Li Xiuning, allowing Li Xiuning to let go of his hands and feet completely and do a big job.

As long as his allies are strong enough, he is safer.

After Xie Shufang led the soldiers of Zuoyitong Army Mansion and Zuotong Army Battalion to leave Luoyang, Luoyang became calm and there were almost no waves.

That is, the number of convoys transporting grain to Luoyang City has increased again.

……

The third day of February.

Li Shimin and Chen Bing guard the state, ready to fight Liu Heita.

But before Li Shimin took the lead, Liu Heitai did it first.

Tens of thousands of troops rushed to Qishui, vowing to cut off Li Shimin's dog's head, pay homage to Dou Jiande's spirit in heaven, and establish the Great Xia Kingdom again.

Li Ji was hundreds of miles away, and he could guess Li Shimin's reaction after hearing this.

It must be eyes shining and laughing loudly.

Liu Heita's behavior was like a puffy guy actively provoking a strong man.

Liu Heizai just swallowed all the prefectures in Hebei, and has not yet begun to digest. The soldiers and horses under his hands are also pieced together, or they were recruited to surrender along the way.

Fundamentally, he is not at the same level as Li Shimin.

In the face of Li Shimin bringing heavy troops to suppress, the most important thing Liu Heitai should do is to guard against death, fight steadily, and fight a war of attrition with Li Shimin.

The quality of the soldiers and horses under his hands is not as good as Li Shimin's, so it should rely on the number of people and Li Shimin's consumption.

In the process of consumption, while digesting the states of Hebei, while wooing the aristocratic families in Hebei.

As long as a super family like the Li family of Zhaozhou is tied to the chariot, it will not be so easy for Li Shimin to take Hebei.

But he chose to face Li Shimin directly and start a war with Li Shimin.

Probably because the states in Hebei were defeated too quickly, which spoiled him, making him think that Li Shimin, like the defenders in the states in Hebei, was a soft persimmon.

Li Shimin was not used to Liu Heitai.

When Liu Heita's army arrived in Qishui, Li Shimin sent infantry to attack the formation before they set up camp, and cavalry attacked the two wings.

The infantry led by Shuang Shiluo and Qi Shanxing advanced step by step, firmly suppressing Liu Heita's troops.

Luo Shixin and Yu Chigong, one on the left and the other on the right, led two cavalry to rush out from the left and right wings, frantically strangling the soldiers and horses under Liu Heita's hands.

After Luo Shixin went crazy, he once killed five hundred steps in front of Liu Heitai's tent.

Almost picked Liu Heitai's former general.

The soldiers and horses under Liu Heita are used to fighting with the wind, and they are a little uncomfortable when they encounter this kind of hard stubble.

Immediately broke into an army, scattered and fled.

Li Shimin won the first battle, and instead of taking advantage of the victory to pursue it, he ordered his troops to return to camp.

Liu Heita suffered a big loss, and the three corpses jumped out of anger, but he didn't learn a lesson, and sent another general to lead the troops to Qishui again.

After Li Shimin got the news, he led a surprise attack with thousands of riders hundreds of miles away, and robbed and killed them halfway. Before they arrived at Qishui, they were defeated by Li Shimin again.

After two defeats, Liu Heitai finally learned a lesson, and he didn't dare to send troops to fight Li Shimin again.

After Liu Heita refused to send soldiers and horses to fight, Li Shimin ordered his soldiers and horses to rush into Xiangzhou.

Liu Heita suffered two defeats, and the morale of his soldiers and horses was low.

Li Shimin won two games, and the morale of the soldiers and horses under his hands was naturally high.

One high and one low, and they faced each other again, naturally Li Shimin's troops won.

In just three days, Li Shimin successively captured Linhe, Tangyin, Linli, and Neihuang counties in Xiangzhou.

Liu Heikai was forced to retreat to Anyang City and stay behind closed doors.

Li Shimin ordered the soldiers and horses under his command to hide in the mountains on both sides of Anyang City, and he led a hundred cavalry to call for battle at the gate of Anyang City, luring Liu Heitai to make a move.

Li Shimin often used this trick.

When Li Shimin was conquering other people before, he often used his own head to lure the enemy to open the door to pursue him, and then gave the enemy a ruthless attack, and took advantage of the situation to enter the city.

But it's because it's used too much.

So even if Liu Heitai saw Li Shimin wandering under his nose, he just ordered people to hide on the city wall and shoot in the dark, and refused to lead his troops out of the city to fight Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's plan failed, so he ordered his soldiers and horses to attack.

Liu Heitai was defeated, so he had to lead his army to withdraw from Anyang City, and was chased by Li Shimin all the way, and withdrew from Xiangzhou.

Li Shimin regained the whole territory of Xiangzhou.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Li Shimin's soldiers entered Feixiang in Mingzhou, and called Li Ji to lead troops to Mingzhou, preparing to enter and guard Guangfu.

Li Yuanji received Li Shimin's commander-in-chief and ordered someone to find Li Sixing.

Li Sixing has been traveling outside for more than a month, and he looks a lot older, with chilblains on his ears and hands.

The front hall of Luoyang Palace.

Li Yuanji watched Li Sixing scratching his ears and hands continuously, leaving red marks, and said with a frown, "Did my father short your salary or your reward? How could you be like this?" ?”
