Country color

Chapter 292
The wind and snow piled up, and Guanzhong Bashang was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

Under the fence in the gully, the Sui army in iron armor fell on it, with arrowheads stuck in their bodies, broken spears and short spears everywhere, while the north wind roared, the setting sun was like blood, and rolled over the broken Sui army banner, which was unbelievable. I feel that the sun is thinning in the Sui Dynasty.

Now the Sui army is retreating through the frozen Bashui just like the tide.When retreating, the soldiers were panicked and panicked. When the Sui army retreated across the Bashui River, the ice suddenly cracked, and dozens of Sui soldiers fell into the river. The sound of calling for help came through the gust of wind, which made the fiasco even worse. feel.

On a mountain not far from Bashang, tens of thousands of soldiers who defeated the Sui army were all dressed in white and lined up at the foot of the mountain.On a big fiery red flag in front of the camp, there are righteous characters written on it, moving with the wind.

The soldiers were in good spirits. Seeing the Sui army retreat like a tide, they all raised their guns and shook their arms and cheered.

On the top of the mountain, under the banner, hundreds of elite soldiers stood tall.

Li Zhiwan stood on the hillside with her sword in her hand. From a distance, the frozen Bashui River could be clearly seen, and even further away, the majestic Daxing City, the capital of the Sui Dynasty, could be vaguely seen.

Li Zhiwan was wearing a snow-white cloak, lined with white armor, her phoenix eyes looked far away, her long eyebrows were drawn into her temples, her indescribably heroic appearance was outstanding.Looking at her figure, it is hard to believe that such a beautiful woman is actually the commander of this army.But behind Li Zhiwan, more than a dozen rough-faced, mighty and majestic generals stood behind her holding their breath.

Among the generals, a middle-aged scholar with white hair at the temples stood silently.The name of this scholar was Li Gang, he was his grandfather, his father was a governor, a chariot and cavalry general, he could be said to be a descendant of an official.

He once washed horses for the prince and was an official under Yang Yong's command. After Yang Guang seized the throne, Li Gang was hated by the other party, so he lived in seclusion in Hu county.

Later, Li Zhiwan escaped from Chang'an, and when she returned to her hometown of Hu County to recruit soldiers, she happened to meet Li Gang.Li Gang and Li Yuan were old, and they were considered to be of the same clan. Now, please be the chief historian, and Li Gang persuaded the schemer Hu Shang He Panren, and now he has pulled together a team of thousands of people in Guanzhong for Li Zhiwan.

Later, Li Zhiwan dissipated all her family wealth and used Li Yuan's contacts to subdue Li Zhongwen, Xiang Shanzhi, Qiu Shili and other rebels.Right now Li Zhiwan raised a banner in Guanzhong to recruit troops, and among the Guanlong gentry, many young children all raised their guns and led their horses to join the army.

In an instant, Li Zhiwan was in Guanzhong, pulling up an army of 7 people for Li Yuan, and even defeated the Sui army sent by Qu Tutong, the ambassador in the pass.The entire Guanzhong was shaken, both the Sui army and the common people exclaimed that this army was the Women's Army.

"Li Changshi."

Li Gang was taken aback for a moment, then restrained his expression, stood up, and said, "No."

Li Zhiwan didn't look back, and said: "Where have Li Zhongwen, Xiang Shanzhi, Qiu Shili and the others advanced?"

Li Gang replied: "According to the previous arrangement, the counties were divided and plundered, and Hu County, Zhouzhi, Wugong, and Shiping have been captured."

Li Zhiwan nodded upon hearing this.

Li Gang said: "With us in Guanzhong, Qu Tutong would not dare to send reinforcements from Guanzhong to cross the river east."

Li Gang did not treat Li Zhiwan as an ordinary woman at all in his heart. During these few battles, Li Zhiwan, as a woman, was in charge of the tens of thousands of troops. .

The people in Guanzhong, and even the [-] troops under his command, all feared her, Li Gang couldn't help but wonder how lucky Li Yuan was to be born with such a woman who would never give up to others.

It's a pity that she is a woman. He heard that Li Yuan has made Li Jiancheng his son, but Li Gang has seen Li Jiancheng. Although this person is not bad, he is far inferior to his sister.It's a pity that the other party is a daughter, otherwise I can take effect early, and I have nothing to do with the emperor's skills. It's a pity that Yang Yong didn't listen to him back then, and instead let Yang Guang take the country.

Thinking of this, Li Gang couldn't help but sigh, and felt a sense of bewilderment when he drew his sword and looked around.

Li Zhiwan suddenly said: "Li Changshi, what's the current situation in Hedong?"

Li Gangyan said: "I just got the news that Song Laosheng led an army of [-] troops to station in Huoyi, but underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, and was defeated by Tang Gong. Song Laosheng died, and Tang Gong has captured Huoyi."

At this moment Pan Heren, a Hu man, smiled and said, "Okay, once Song Laosheng leaves, General Qu of Hedong will be alone."

Li Gang heard the words and said: "No, once Song Laosheng is gone, Hedong will rely on Qu Tutong alone, and there are tens of thousands of troops. If he sticks to it, Tang Gong will not be able to attack."

When Li Gang said this, he said politely to Li Zhi: "If Qu Tutong is good at defending the east of the river by force, Duke Tang will probably lose his troops. If we defeat the Eastern Capital, if we fail to attack Xijing and allow Li Mi to take the Eastern Capital first, we will use this to take the lead and gain the power to command the world, so Duke Tang's great career is in jeopardy."

After Li Zhiwan heard Li Chongjiu's name, her eyes flicked slightly, but there was only a little turmoil in her heart, and she just said softly: "Li Changshi is right."

Pan Heren laughed and said, "Now it's either Duke Tang or Li Mi. One of them will take over the world. Whoever wins Xijing and Dongdu first will have the upper hand. I think Duke Tang will deal with Qu Tutong sooner or later. How about How about we attack Xijing without waiting for Duke Tang's army?"

Li Gang shook his head and said: "Chang'an still has tens of thousands of elite soldiers. We lack siege equipment now, so how can we take them lightly? I wonder what the commander-in-chief has to say?"

Li Zhiwan looked to the north, was silent for a while, and said: "As a general, Qu Tutong is cautious, he dare not go to war. Although our military strength is not enough to attack the fortified city of Xijing, it is enough for Austrian aid."

Speaking of this, Li Zhiwan pointed the hilt of the scabbard towards the north, and the long wind whipped her cloak.I saw Li Zhi wanly said: "My father can ignore Qu Tutong's army. It is enough to leave a general to monitor the east of the river, and lead the army to cross the Yellow River. We will lead the army to the north to meet it. Such a momentum is strong enough to have the power to attack Xijing. .”

Pan Heren and Li Gang both showed expressions of approval after deep thought.According to the general general strategy, proceed step by step, after capturing the land of Hedong, cross the Yellow River from Pujin, and try to seize Guanzhong.

But right now Li Mi and Li Yuan are competing for the lord of the world, whoever can occupy Xijing first, one of the eastern capitals, is enough to have the right to speak in the leadership of the world, so at this time, Li Zhiwan suggested that Li Yuan lead the elite to cross the river, leaving aside Qu Tutong's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses , and crossing the river to attack Xijing soldiers approaching the city is a bold and wonderful move.

Of course, Li Zhiwan's surprise army is very important. If they hadn't been there to support them in Guanzhong, Li Yuan would not have dared to carry out the strategy of crossing the river and attacking Xijing.

After Li Gang heard about it, he admired Li Zhiwan even more and said: "If Duke Tang can rule the world in the future, you will take half of the credit, Marshal."

Li Gang's words are definitely heartfelt words. Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang, and he had only 3 soldiers around him, while Li Zhiwan had [-] soldiers and horses under his command. Moreover, these soldiers and horses were not peasants, but many of them were strong clans who defected to Guanzhong My son, your fighting power is not bad.

Fortunately, it was Li Zhiwan who led the army. If it were someone else, this army would be in the hands of others. Even if it was his own son, Li Yuan would probably not be able to sleep at this moment, and would not be able to eat well.

Li Gang couldn't help laughing from the bottom of his heart, Li Yuan will win the world's greatest hero in the future, not a man, but a woman, I don't know if this is a joke.

After hearing Li Gangzhi's words, Li Zhiwan shook her head with a smile. As a girl, what use is she to make such a world-famous achievement? Could it be that she will really be a general in the future?

When I fled from Xijing back then, I just wanted to help my father and brother, but I didn't expect it to happen in one fell swoop.Even if the Li family seized the world, it would be of no use to her to be crowned king and general in the future, since she would really be unable to lead troops to fight.

A few days ago, the eldest brother exchanged letters with himself, in which he mentioned that the second brother held the military power and won successive battles, which seemed to be jealous.But he is very happy about his achievements in Chang'an, and he also said that his father is very happy about it.

Thinking of this, Li Zhiwan couldn't help but feel melancholy in her heart, she knew that elder brother was quite narrow-minded.But the second brother respects the elder brother on the surface, but he is also a person with great ambitions.In the past, if the Li family was peaceful and happy, this would not be a big deal. If the world is captured, there may be a life-and-death struggle between the elder brother and the second brother.

Li Zhiwan thought in her heart, it doesn't matter whether the Li family seizes the world or not, the most important thing is that father, eldest brother, second brother, and fourth brother can all be at ease, and the family is in harmony. If there is any mistake between them, I would rather the Li family not In the world, for her, there is only this small wish in this life. As for the others, she would rather not think about it now.

Thinking of this, Li Zhiwan couldn't help but her eyes blurred.

In Yuyi Town, Li Chongjiu was looking at the information sent by Lin Dangfeng. He had been paying attention to the world's movements. Li Yuan was still unstoppable. Although it was nearly half a year later than in history, he started his army from Jinyang.But with the joint efforts of Li Shimin and Li Zhiwan, Li Yuan reached the edge of the Yellow River in less than a month.

Just like in history, the Guanlong gentry, Daibei Guiqi completely abandoned the Yang family and turned to support Li Yuan. Under this, the counties and counties in Hedong surrendered without a fight under Li Yuan's soldiers.

Although Li Mi defeated Wang Shichong in a row, because of the convenient advantage of the eastern capital being located in the world, the Sui court could always deploy troops from all sides to reinforce Guanzhong. Therefore, despite Li Mi's repeated victories, he found that the Sui army was No matter how you fight, you can't finish it.

So now Li Mi can only give up his plan for a decisive battle, and instead order the army to besiege Dongdu, trying to use hunger to force Dongdu to surrender.

Seeing that Li Yuan was about to attack Chang'an, Li Chongjiu didn't know whether the half a year he had won for Li Mi and himself would allow him to capture the Eastern Capital first, but it seems that the current situation is that Li Mi can continue to win , but Dongdu just couldn't beat it.

But the time for Li Yuan to attack Xijing is just around the corner.

Sure enough, those who save others must first save themselves. I have helped Li Mi so much, if he still can't make him reverse the overall situation in history, then only he can do it himself.
