Man Tanghong

Chapter 94 Dumpling off? ! (Ask for the first order!!!!)
Li Xiuning frowned and stared at Luo Shixin for a long time.

She knew that Luo Shixin was a person who valued love and righteousness, and if Luo Shixin saw Li Yuanji in danger, he would definitely feel very uncomfortable.

She thought over and over again, and said to Luo Shidao, "I can take you back, but you must obey my order."

Luo Shixin looked straight, cupped his hands and said: "If there is any violation, please punish with military law, Your Highness!"

Li Xiuning nodded, asked Luo Shixin to replace Zhang Shigui, and followed her back to Weize Pass with soldiers and horses.

……

Li Xiuning, Li Shentong, Li Shiji and others all felt that the main force of the Turks had gone to Weize Pass, and that Weize Pass should have fallen into an unprecedented dangerous situation.

But Li Yuanji, who was in Weize Pass, knew that Weize Pass could be even more dangerous.

Li Yuanji just slept peacefully in Weize Pass.

After waking up from sleep, Wei Zeguan changed drastically.

Weizeguan, which was peaceful and stable without any waves, suddenly became turbulent.

The Turkic people appeared outside the Weize Pass overnight, and tens of thousands of Turkic people camped outside the pass, with no end in sight.

The people on the top of the city saw it, and their scalps were a little numb.

Weize Pass is not peaceful either.

Liu Heita, who had escaped from Mingzhou, appeared in Weize Pass at some point behind Li Yuanji.

Weizeguan was suddenly flanked by the Turks and Liu Heizai, and fell into a dilemma, isolated and helpless.

Li Zhongwen's calf trembled a little, Xie Shufang's breathing was a little short of breath, only Su Dingfang remained calm.

The reason why Li Zhongwen's calves were trembling was not because he was frightened by the tujue and Liu Heita, but because Li Yuanji frightened him.

The horizontal knife that Li Yuanji was wearing with him was already on Li Zhongwen's neck.

Li Yuanji stared at Li Zhongwen with a dark face and asked, "Where are the scouts you sent out? Why didn't I know that the Turkic people and Liu Heizai were under my nose?"

Li Yuanji wished he could kill Li Zhongwen. According to the "Regulations" of guarding the pass, during the war, whenever the pass could be affected, the scouts must go out dozens of miles to patrol, day and night.

The purpose is to avoid the enemy's surprise attack and hit the pass by surprise.

But the Turks and Liu Heitai appeared overnight, and he hadn't received any news before that.

This shows that Li Zhongwen has dereliction of duty.

While avoiding the blade in Li Yuanji's hand, Li Zhongwen said with a bitter face: "Since the Turkic people and Liu Heitai appeared in Weize Pass at the same time, it means that they have secret exchanges and premeditated.

Since they have premeditated, it is impossible for them to reveal their whereabouts and be detected by us.

The scouts sent out by the minister must have already become the dead souls of their swords. "

Li Yuanji stared at Li Zhongwen, "Is this an excuse or a reason?"

Li Zhongwen's dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty, and it is useless to say more.

The scouts spy on the military situation, and it's not that they don't come back after going out. The scouts usually rotate every few hours.

The purpose is to avoid being assassinated by the enemy.

So Li Zhongwen said that the Turkic people and Liu Heitai had premeditated, and whether the scouts became their ghosts under the sword, they were all excuses and reasons.

It still cannot reduce Li Zhongwen's crime of dereliction of duty.

"Your Highness, this is the end of the matter, let's think about how to deal with it as soon as possible. Looking at the posture of the Turkic people and Liu Heita, they will launch an attack for Weize Pass after rectification."

Xie Shufang said in a deep voice.

Li Yuanji took a horizontal knife and slapped Li Zhongwen fiercely, knocking Li Zhongwen to the ground.

Li Zhongwen bared his teeth in pain, but he didn't dare to scream.

Li Yuanji dropped the horizontal knife, and his eyes fell on Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang.

"Tell me, how should we deal with the current situation."

Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang looked at each other without speaking.

In their hearts, there is only one way to choose, and that is to stick to Weize Pass.

But in Li Yuanji's heart, there are two paths to choose from.

One is to stick to Weize Pass, fight to the death with the Turkic people and Liu Heita, and strive to last until the arrival of reinforcements.

One is to abandon Weize Pass and break through the pass.

Liu Heita's hands were full of remnants and defeated generals. With the strength of Li Yuanji's troops, it would be easy to break through the siege.

But if Li Yuanji broke through, he would lose Weize Pass to the Turks and Liu Heita.

Then the Turkic people will definitely drive southward through the Weize Pass, and Liu Heitai will also recover with the support of the Turkic people, and once again bring disaster to the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, not only the people in Hebei will suffer, but Taiyuan, Shizhou, Fenzhou, Yizhou, Jinzhou, Jiangzhou, Zezhou and many other states will also suffer.

It may also spread to Luoyang, Henan Province and many other places.

That is to say, if Li Yuanji breaks through the siege, there is a high possibility that millions of people in the Tang Dynasty will be tortured by the Turks and Liu Heitai.

The population of Datang was not large in the first place. If the Turks and Liu Heita were tossed about again, it would take many years to recover.

Especially Hebei Road, which has been tossed several times in this troubled world, has been starved to death everywhere, and bandits are rampant.

After being tossed by Liu Heizai again, there are probably no living people in Hebei Road except those big families.

Both Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang felt that they could not break through.

But if Li Yuanji insisted on breaking through, they could only obey orders.

Although they have their own ideas, they know better that they are Li Yuanji's subordinates and must follow Li Yuanji's lead.

Seeing that Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang looked at him silently, Li Yuanji guessed something about their thoughts.

Li Yuanji was struggling and struggling in his heart.

Whether to break through or stick to it, it is really difficult for him to choose.

If he breaks out, he will have to watch millions of people being ruined by the Turks and Liu Heizai.

If he doesn't break through, he is likely to be ruined by the Turks and Liu Heizai.

He wanted to save his own life, and he also wanted to save the people.

But now there is no way to have it both ways.

He couldn't imitate his old wisdom in Mingshui City and let Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang stick to Weize Pass. He broke out by himself and stood in the safest position.

He is now Wei Zeguan's biggest head at that moment, and Wei Zeguan's eyes are staring at him up and down.

If he runs away, the morale of the army will be messed up.

Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang had no way to win over the morale of the army.

Otherwise, Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang would have asked him to break through.

Now he has to advance and retreat with Wei Zeguan, and he can only advance and retreat with Wei Zeguan.

"Pass down the order and stick to Weize Pass!"

Li Yuanji tangled and struggled for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and spoke.

A smile appeared on Su Dingfang's face.

Xie Shufang let out a sigh of relief in his heart, and he suddenly became much more relaxed.

They were different from Li Yuanji. The moment they went to the battlefield, they were ready to be shrouded in horse leather.

So death in battle is never a sad thing for them, but a very heroic thing.

They never thought about running away, they were just worried that Li Yuanji would run away.

If Li Yuanji ran away, they would have to run with them and bear the infamy together.

"Then send an order to the craftsmen in the forge to let them temporarily put aside their errands of making armor for the soldiers, and focus on making cloaks for the horses. The style will follow the style of the Xuanjia Army."

Li Yuanji spoke again.

Although he decided to stick to Weize Pass, he didn't expect to die in Weize Pass.

Now that the battle is at the last moment, if there are only a group of guards left around him, he will definitely lead the guards to fight a bloody path and break out.

Although breaking through at that time was also breaking through, but at that time he had already worked hard at Weize Pass, and he was already worthy of his conscience. Weize Pass really couldn't be defended, and he didn't have to die for it.

As for letting the craftsmen forge the same equipment as the Xuanjia Army under Li Shimin's command, it is also to prepare for the breakout.

The Xuanjia Army under Li Shimin's command is heavy armored cavalry.

Heavy armored cavalry is best suited for surprise bursts.

Killing the enemy unexpectedly, the enemy could not stop the charge of the heavy cavalry without any preparation.

Xie Shufang and Su Dingfang didn't understand whether Li Yuanji suddenly asked the craftsmen to make cloaks for the horses to assemble heavy cavalry to fight the enemy, or to prepare for the subsequent breakout, so they couldn't express any objection.

"The minister will send someone to give instructions to the craftsmen in a short while."

Xie Shufang bowed and said.

Li Yuanji nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Tell me, how should we guard?"

Su Dingfang had been waiting for Li Yuanji's words. He already had some calculations in his mind, so after hearing Li Yuanji's words, he cupped his hands without hesitation and said, "The Turks have many generals and are not capable of fighting. We only have Only by defending the city can we resist the Turkic soldiers. However, the troops under Liu Heita's command are all remnants and defeated generals, and now some of them have not gained a stable foothold. He wiped out.

In this way, we can also avoid being caught between two sides. "

Xie Shufang was stunned for a moment, and carefully considered the feasibility of what Su Dingfang said.

After a while, he nodded his head and said: "I think it is feasible. After Liu Heita was defeated by my Tang Dynasty, there were only a thousand soldiers and horses left under his hands, and he didn't have much food in his hands.

Coming here from Mingzhou must be exhausted and hungry.

He should be sending people to plunder the people in the pass now and get food from the people.

If we take people out to kill at this time, we really have a chance to wipe out Liu Heita in one fell swoop. "

Liu Heikai also took advantage of the power of the Turkic people to go to Weizeguan to show off his might.

If there were no Turkic people, he would have to go around Weize Pass when he saw it.

There are nearly [-] soldiers and horses in Weize Pass, most of them are elite soldiers and strong generals, far from being able to deal with the little people under Liu Heita.

Li Yuanji nodded thoughtfully, and said solemnly: "Our strength is far superior to that of Liu Heita, and Liu Heita's bold appearance in front of us may also be luring us out of the city to meet him.

So I have to guard against it. "
