Man Tanghong

Chapter 84 Liu Heitai still... ran away

The cost of armor is high and the construction period is very long.

The predecessor did not have the intention to prepare the military mansion, so the Qi Wangfu's armor was limited.

After equipping the Zuoyi Military Mansion, there is not much left.

He still begged for the iron armor of the Zuo Ertong Army Mansion from Li Shimin.

Although many soldiers from the Zuoer Commander's Mansion died in the battle of Mingshui City, their iron armor will still remain in the Zuoer's Second Commander's Mansion for use by their successors.

Therefore, in a short period of time, he still couldn't get enough iron armor to equip the Zuo Santong Army Mansion.

Of course, if you have to get it, you can get it.

As long as he is willing to give some food to Li Shimin, Li Shimin will definitely give him a piece of equipment from the Tongjun Mansion without hesitation.

But in that case, Su Dingfang would not easily agree to serve as the deputy commander of the Zuo Santong Army Mansion.

He can understand Su Dingfang's desire to use credit to prove his worth, but he doesn't have that much time to wait for Su Dingfang to make contributions.

The construction of the first, second, and third commanding military mansions of Prince Qi's Mansion is a bit fast, and the speed has exceeded his expectations. He needs to support some people he can trust and capable people to take over as soon as possible to help him lead the army. Three commanding military mansions.

After listening to Li Yuanji's words, Su Dingfang looked hesitant.

Li Yuanji smiled and said, "You can't just watch the people you recruited become a mess, can you?"

Su Dingfang hurriedly said, "Of course not."

Su Dingfang, as Li Yuanji's man, no matter whether he is willing to serve as the deputy commander of the Zuo Santong Army Mansion, he is unwilling to see Li Yuanji's soldiers and horses become a mess.

"That's settled then."

Li Yuanji finalized the matter without hesitation.

Seeing that Li Yuanji had made up his mind, Su Dingfang hesitated again and again, bowed and said, "I will definitely not disappoint Your Highness' high expectations."

The Zuo Santong Army Mansion that Li Yuanji asked him to command was not a group of soldiers, nor was it Li Yuanji's old department, so he didn't have to worry about his identity being unable to convince the public.

The commanding army of the Commanding Army Mansion, the first on the left and the second on the left, should not have much complaints when they saw that he was not commanding soldiers.

Li Yuanji admired him so much and believed in him so much, he naturally had to praise him.

When others support you, you repeatedly refuse, that is called humility.

If you keep refusing, it is called ignorance of flattery.

"Um……"

Li Yuanji nodded in satisfaction, walked to the chief in the room, wrote a letter of appointment, stamped it with a seal, and handed it to Su Dingfang.

Su Dingfang respectfully took over the appointment document.

Since then, he has been the deputy commander of the Zuo Santong Army Mansion of King Qi's Mansion.

He was commanded by [-] soldiers personally selected by him.

Li Yuanji handed over the appointment document to Su Dingfang, and said: "You choose the people in the Zuo Santong Army Mansion, and you need to judge whether they are loyal or traitorous.

I'll give you one month. After one month, I hope to see a soldier who is wholeheartedly loyal to my Tang Dynasty. "

Su Dingfang solemnly clasped his fists and said, "I will definitely live up to your Highness's trust."

Li Yuanji nodded, waved his hand, and asked Su Dingfang to go down to build the Zuo Santong Army Mansion.

As soon as Su Dingfang left, Li Yuanji sat behind the long table, his face pondering.

At first, he just wanted to build the Zuo Santong Army Mansion, and place the fierce generals he recruited, so that they could protect his safety together.

But looking at it now, it is obvious that the Zuo Santong Military Mansion is not enough.

Xie Shufang is an old man under his command. He is capable of writing and martial arts. He can take charge on his own. He must not let someone else serve as his deputy. Therefore, Xie Shufang must be the commander of the Zuoyi Commander's Mansion.

Although Su Dingfang has just joined his command, Su Dingfang is also capable of writing and martial arts, and can be independent, and his military talent even surpasses that of Xie Shufang.

It would be a waste to ask Su Dingfang to be someone's deputy, so the commanding army of the Zuo San Commanding Army may also fall on Su Dingfang in the future.

With three commanding army mansions, there is only one commanding army left, which is not enough to accommodate the other generals he wants to recruit.

For example, the Xue brothers, Kan Leng and others are all veteran generals who have already become famous.

The current reputation is far higher than that of Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang. It is impossible for them to act as deputies for Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang, let alone serve as deputies for each other.

Therefore, we can only set up a new army to make arrangements.

"I'm afraid the Three Commandments of the Right will also be put on the agenda..."

Li Yuanji sighed.

The power in his hand grew a little too fast, so that he had to adjust his plan.

"But don't be too anxious, he is not my general yet."

Li Yuanji sighed again.

The Xue brothers, Kan Leng and others have not yet come under his command, so he doesn't need to rush to prepare for the establishment of the Three Right Army Mansion.

Li Yuanji didn't think about this issue for too long, and he didn't think about the candidate for the governor of Weizhou. Instead, he got up and left the wing room, went to the wounded barracks, and went to Gaofen to mourn the soldiers who had just been buried. .

It was not until nightfall that he returned to his residence.

It wasn't long before I got back to my residence.

Qu Tutong hurried to Li Yuanji's residence with an ugly expression, and Luo Shixin was with him.

Luo Shixin's expression was not good either.

Li Yuanji saw the faces of the two, and before they could speak, he asked, "What happened?"

Qu Tutong had a sullen face, and said in a serious tone: "Liu Heita ran away..."

Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment, and said with a look of surprise: "Liu Heita ran away?! Didn't I tell you to remind my second brother?"

Qu Tutong said bitterly: "When the people sent out by the minister saw the Marshal, Liu Heita had already run away."

Li Yuanji looked at Qu Tutong in astonishment.

Qu Tutong explained: "Xu Yuanlang set up an ambush in Yongji County, and when Liu Heita retreated to defend Quzhou, he raided the grain and grass camp set up by His Royal Highness King Wu in Linqing.

His Royal Highness King Wu was forced to send someone to meet Xu Yuanlang.

Taking advantage of this vacancy, Liu Heikai sent Dong Kangmai to lead the remaining soldiers and horses to the Zongcheng, and fled to Julu with Fan Yuan and others.

His Royal Highness King Yan has led his army to Zhaozhou, preparing to cut off the roads between Zhaozhou and Jizhou, hoping to catch Liu Heita. "

Li Yuanji slowly came back to his senses, unexpected but reasonable.

In history, Liu Heikai was able to escape successfully in the face of worse situations. The situation he is facing now is far from being as bad as in history. It is reasonable to escape.

Although Li Yi brought someone to block it, the chances of it being blocked were not high.

Otherwise, Qu Tutong and Luo Shixin's expressions would not be so ugly.

Liu Heikai escaped from the encirclement circle set by Li Shimin, just like a fish entering the sea, and it will not be so easy to find it again.

Li Shimin is probably furious now.

The duck in his hand flew away like this, and the credit for calming Hebei was suddenly weakened by [-]%, or even more.

Li Yuan might still make use of it, it would be strange if Li Shimin wasn't angry.

"My second brother lost his temper?"

Li Yuanji stared at Qu Tutong and asked.

Qu Tutong made a bitter face and said nothing.

It's not just angry, it's really angry.

The soldiers and horses who rushed to the rescue of Du Fuwei and Ren Gui were already on their way.

Xu Yuanlang spoiled Li Shimin's good deeds, and caused Li Shimin's contribution to conquest of Hebei to be weakened by as much as [-]%. How could Li Shimin let Xu Yuanlang go.

If Xu Yuanlang defends Yanzhou, Li Shimin may have to think about it before sending troops.

Xu Yuanlang sent troops out of Yanzhou, so Li Shimin had nothing to worry about.

With the little troops in Xu Yuanlang's hands, it was already too tight to defend Yanzhou, and he dared to send some of them out.

Then he is gone.

Seeing that Qu Tutong didn't speak, Li Yuanji asked again: "Is it convenient to say?"

Qu Tutong bowed and said, "I dare not criticize His Highness King Qin."

"So you don't want to say it?!"

Whether Li Shimin was angry or not, Li Yuanji knew in his heart, Qu Tutong refused to say anything, and he didn't force him to ask.

"This matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with me, does it? You came to look for me at night, why?"

Li Yuanji questioned.

Liu Heitai ran away, and that was also Li Shimin's business, and it had nothing to do with him, the commander in chief of the rear army who had handed over his power.

If Qu Tutong and Luo Shixin had nothing important to do, there was absolutely no need to come to him at night.

Qu Tutong bowed again and said: "Marshal sent someone to send a message, hoping that you and Luo Shixin will lead the army to Weizeguan to sit in the town as soon as possible. Liu Heita has run away, and it is very likely that he will go to the Turkic people.

Once Liu Heikai meets the Turkic people, the Turkic people are likely to gather together and go south brazenly.

The marshal hopes that you and Luo Shixin will sit at Weize Pass, so that Her Highness the Princess can leave to help King Huai'an and Li Shiji. "

Li Yuanji was taken aback for a moment, then raised his brows slightly, and said puzzledly: "My second brother wants to transfer my third sister out of Weize Pass, has he asked my father?"

Qu Tutong smiled wryly and said, "The 200,000 Turkic army is about to go south. Who cares about other things?"

Li Yuanji nodded slowly, "That's right, dealing with the Turks is more important."

He didn't object to Li Shimin dispatching him to Weizeguan to sit in town.

The 200,000 Turkic army going south was a disaster for Datang.

For the people in Eastern Shaanxi and Hebei Provinces, it was a disaster of ruining their families.

Every time the Turks went south to plunder, they would not only plunder food and gold and silver treasures, but also plunder the population.

The Turks practiced slavery, and all the people looted by them would be turned into their slaves.

Their attitude towards slaves is far worse than that of cattle and sheep.

The people in Eastern Shaanxi and Hebei Provinces have suffered unspeakably after the wars between Datang and Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, and between Datang and Liu Heitai. Let the Turkic people make disasters, and there will be no 20 years at all. Can't recover.

In this matter, Li Yuanji couldn't stand on the sidelines because of emotion and reason.

Li Yuanji looked at Luo Shixin, and said in surprise, "Are you going to Weize Pass too?"

Luo Shixin nodded solemnly.

Li Yuanji was a little puzzled.

What did Li Shimin think, let Luo Shixin follow him to Weize Pass?
This is to see that Luo Shixin intends to leave the Prince Qin's mansion, so he pushes the boat along... Or is he taking the opportunity to test whether Luo Shixin has unfaithful intentions?
Li Yuanji didn't understand what Li Shimin meant.
