First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 100
98. News of success
As soon as Gongsun Wuda, a fierce man got out of the prison car, he was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. With a horizontal knife, he slashed from left to right, and a group of yamen servants who killed him scattered like birds and beasts. Kaohsiung was speechless.

"Forgive me, General..." The yamen servant who had been guarding Gongsun Wuda saw Gongsun Wuda approaching him, knelt on the ground in a panic, and begged for mercy.

"Tian Shehan", when he saw this man Gongsun Wuda, he became angry, "Looking at your grandpa pissing his pants, you will die", he stepped forward and slashed with the knife, the body of the yamen servant was immediately separated, blood spattered.

Seeing that Gongsun Wuda is so fierce, how dare the yamen servant who used to oppress the people in the past dare to resist, throwing down his weapon, turning around and running away, only hating that his parents had lost a pair of legs, Gongsun Wuda's eyes were red, and he chased and killed with all his might. One, chased hundreds of steps away before giving up.

"Liu Sima, General Liu, General Gongsun, it's not suitable to stay here for long, let's retreat quickly," Kaohsiung hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Liu Shirang was very happy for the rest of his life after the catastrophe. He solemnly saluted and thanked him: "Thank you Brother Gao for saving your life."

Gongsun Wuda was covered in blood, he threw down the curly blade, and put his arms around Gao Xiong's shoulder, "Brother Gao is such a good man, he saved us with such a small number of people, he really deserves to be the Gao family, I didn't give your family a high Shame".

Hearing this, Kaohsiung was busy being humble, but Liu Wenjing on the side was expressionless. She glanced at Kaohsiung, extremely indifferent, and found an unmanned horse on her own, "Go south quickly, to Hechi tonight", Liu Wenjing ordered in a cold voice, after all, he hit his horse and ran south.

Seeing this, Gongsun Wuda spat, "What are you pretending to do, I wanted to make some meritorious deeds, so as to risk folding myself in."

Liu Shirang shook his head and sighed, "Now Sima Liu has lost both ears, and his character is even more surly."

Kaohsiung on the side has no expression on his face, but he is secretly happy in his heart, how can a man without ears fight with his own Alang.

Immediately count the number of people in Kaohsiung, ten people team, three people were killed in battle, the rest were all wounded, they didn't dare to delay at the moment, busy to clean up a little, then followed Liu Wenjing to the south.

As soon as Fang set off, Kaohsiung slapped his head, "Can't go south."

All three of them looked at him, and Liu Wenjing's eyes were even colder. Gao Xiong continued, "I came from the east slope of Longshan Mountain. At that time, my husband was lurking outside the Dazhen Pass. If we want to take the Dazhen Pass, we should go east now." , and join my husband."

"Want to take the big shock?" Liu Shi let the two of them startled, and Liu Wenjing also had a strange look in his eyes.

Liu Wenjing quickly grasped the point and asked directly: "How many people does he have?".

Kaohsiung made the calculations in his mind, "Excluding those killed in battle and the scouts sent out, there should be more than [-] people."

Liu Wenjing's mouth twitched when she heard the words, "500 people want to take the Great Earthquake Pass, wishful thinking, don't go east, continue south."

"But my husband is outside the Great Earthquake Pass."

"It should be dead at this time."Liu Wenjing was expressionless, "The garrison of the Great Earthquake Pass is close to [-], how can we fight against it?"

"You..." Kaohsiung was so angry that he almost drew his sword. He risked his life to save Liu Wenjing.

Liu Shirang also felt that Liu Wenjing's words were inappropriate, so he hurriedly held Gao Xiong down, and comforted him: "Brother Gao, calm down, we only have these few people left now, if we go to the Great Earthquake Pass, it will be useless to the war, and we are afraid of bad things, why not go first Hechi County, take a detour back to Fufeng, and then make a fuss."

Gao Xiong glared at Liu Wenjing, looked at Liu Shirang and said straightly: "I will escort you two to Hechi, and then I will return to Dazhenguan. My husband must be there."

Seeing that Kaohsiung's loyalty is the main thing, Liu Shirang didn't persuade him much, and a group of more than ten people immediately went straight to Hechi County.

In the east of Yongxian County, there is a village named Fanjiazhai. The mountain behind Fanjiazhai is very high, named Fanjiashan.

Not far from Fanjia Mountain is Yongxian County, which forms a triangle with Qiyang Palace and Yongxian County. After Li Shimin led an army to Yongxian County, he stationed troops in Fanjiashan. That night, he ordered Duan Zhixuan to lead thousands of people to carry it for several days. Grain and grass rushed into Yong County and joined Dou Jing and others.

And Li Shimin also received the news from Gao Chong very quickly, and was shocked at the moment.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Shimin sits high in the commander-in-chief, dressed in military uniform, which sets off the heroic Li Shimin to be very powerful.

Seeing that all the generals arrived, Li Shimin's tense face finally couldn't help it, and he laughed heartily, "Everyone, I just received the Gao Chong military report. Liu Wenjing defeated Chang Zhongxing, the governor of Tianshui County in the Western Qin Dynasty by the Yongning River, and wiped out [-] enemies. More than enough."

All the generals were shocked when they heard the words, and then they were overjoyed. They praised him one after another, while some were surprised and doubtful.

"Liu Sima's soldiers went out of the San Pass and went straight to take the second county of Hechi, why did they fight against the soldiers of the West Qin Dynasty in Tianshui?"

Hearing this question, a trace of worry flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, but he said with a smile: "I think Liu Sima has his own calculations, and there is another good news, which is even more exciting."

Having said that, Li Shimin hung on the appetite of the generals, and seeing the generals were really curious, Li Shimin said just now: "I am the leader of the army on the right, and joined the army Gaochong. There are more than [-] people in the team and tens of thousands of shi of food, which means that Xue Ju's troops will have no food and grass supply within ten days."

The generals were shocked when they heard this.

"Break Xue Juliang?"

"This... Gao Youzhi is too fierce."

"Not only the grain road, but also cut off Xue Ju's retreat to the west."

"General Manager, Liu Sima has broken through the Tianshui to defend the army, and Gao Canjun has occupied the Great Earthquake Pass, cutting off Xue Juliang's road and the back road. As a result, the soldiers and horses of the Western Qin Dynasty must be in panic." General Qiu Xinggong came out Lie Dao, with a cold face, "The last general is willing to lead the army as a forward, break through the front fence of the enemy camp, and wipe out Xue Ju in one fell swoop."

Qiu Xinggong was born in a general family, he has a fierce personality, even extremely violent, if he disagreed with him, he would draw a knife to kill him, he once cooked and cannibalized human flesh, because of his cruel methods, so all the staff members did not want to have a close friendship with him.

Hearing Qiu Xinggong's words, Li Shimin frowned, and before he could speak, Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "Although this is the case, I see that the Qin soldiers and horses in the west are not panicked, and they are still actively preparing for battle. I guess it should be Xue concealed the news."

Everyone nodded when they heard the words, but Chai Shao on the side smiled and said: "What's the difficulty? Write the truth into a letter of persuasion, copy thousands of copies, and send more than a thousand Qingqi to shoot into Xue Ju's camp. As long as the news spreads, even Xue Ju Forcing it down won't help."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clapped the case and said: "Just do as Sichang said, and you and Sichang will do this immediately."

The eldest and grandson Wuji nodded in agreement.

Qiu Xinggong, who was below, had an anxious expression on his face, "General Manager, the last general...".

Li Shimin immediately stretched out his hand and said: "General Qiu, don't worry, it's not the time for a decisive battle yet."

Depressing Qiu Xinggong, who was eager to fight, Li Shimin got up and looked at the map hanging on one side, "Youzhi only has more than a thousand soldiers and horses, and the garrison at Dazhenguan is insufficient. Xing Can, you immediately lead [-] troops and detour to Chencang Hurry up to Dazhenguan to join Youzhi, then obey Youzhi's dispatch, and must stick to Dazhenguan to cut Xue Ju's way out."

One of the generals in the tent heard the words and happily promised that this man was Lin Xingcan, the general of Yingyang Lang, and he was also a good general, capable of both civil and military affairs, calm and aware of the general situation, not a reckless man, so let him go to support Gao Chong , Li Shimin is also extremely relieved.
