The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 257 Don't enter the tiger's lair

Li Jing was amused by the words, and thought to himself, my son-in-law is really good at employing people, first flatter the old man, and then assign tasks after the old man is comfortably promoted, you don't know the higher you praise, the harder you fall Is there a reason for pain?
But what he said is also reasonable. Li Mi has such a good minister and general under his command. My son-in-law is thirsty for talents and has the world in mind. He will become a great weapon in the future.In this matter, the old man really has to plan and plan for him.

Thinking of this, Li Jing held his beard and beard and thought for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "My lord, forgive me for speaking bluntly, yes. If we want to attack Wagang Mountain, we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger, and wait for work at leisure."

"Oh? Military division, why do you sit on the mountain and watch the tiger, waiting for work with ease, please ask the military division to express it clearly." Yang Yong looked excited.

"My lord, the Wagang army is powerful in front of us. In addition to our new defeat, Wang Shichong's strength should not be underestimated. Therefore, it is not appropriate to raise troops at the moment. We can just take this opportunity to rest and reorganize our troops. After working so hard to help Wang Shichong defeat me, the two of them will definitely "divide the dirt". Li Mi is mercenary, and Wang Shichong is treacherous. The two of them will definitely not be able to pee in the same pot, and soon the two of them will have to In addition, the Wagang Army is not monolithic. Zhai Rang and Li Mi are inseparable, and Wu Tianxi has always been concerned about the death of his cousin Wu Yunzhao. In the future, there will be opportunities for war, and when we send troops in two directions, Luoyang and Wagang Mountain will belong to the prince, and it will depend on the fate of the prince as to whether those powerful people will willingly surrender."

Yang Yong couldn't stop nodding when he heard this, rolled his eyes when he was happy, and thought, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger, waiting for work with leisure, this is a good strategy, and before traveling, I have studied history and read film and television novels, Li Mi and Zhai Rang The strength of the Wagang Rebel Army was seriously weakened in the fire, which was the root cause of Li Mi's failure.Later, these great people, including Li Mi himself, also surrendered to the Li family and his sons. According to the analysis of the military adviser Li Jing, this should happen next.How could such a good play be made without Lao Tzu?I am not reconciled to being a bystander, and how long will I have to wait?Alas, there is!Yang Yong then whispered something into Li Jing's ear.

Li Jing was shocked when he heard this, and shook his head like a rattle: "My lord, you are not joking, this is too risky! You are the head of the family, with a body of gold and jade, no, no, no, no, no."

Yang Yong smiled and said: "My lord, if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger cub?! This king can't wait any longer. For these good people, this king will go all out. This matter must be kept absolutely confidential. I will set off tomorrow, and I will leave it to you here." .”

Yang Yong thought to himself, if Lao Tzu can promote the development of history this time and accelerate the decline of corrupt forces, even if he dies, his name will last forever.But if you are lucky enough to accept these talented people, let alone accept all of them, if you can accept three or five, I will be able to feel like a fish in water.For the sake of the common people in the world, and for the future and great cause of Lao Tzu, this risk is worth taking!
Li Jing even frowned, shook his head and sighed, but he couldn't persuade him. He knew Yang Yong too well. Once a decision was made, Nine Bulls couldn't pull back, so he nodded and said, "Bring a few more skilled people and let them protect him." You, in case of danger, you should have someone to take care of you."

"This is not going to war. Too many people will cause the enemy's suspicion. How about this? In order to deceive people, let Princess Yujing and Li Wan'er go with me, and no one else will be taken with me."

Li Jing had no choice but to agree, and after thinking about it, he gave Yang Yong a kit and told him to open it when he couldn't solve it, which would help Yang Yong solve his urgent needs.

Yang Yong accepted the kit and secretly told the two beautiful wives about his decision. Princess Yujing and Li Wan'er were so shocked that they turned pale and shook their heads repeatedly. Yang Yong smiled and said, "If you two are afraid, I will find two more Get a bodyguard to replace you."

"Who said we were afraid? Well, since the husband has made the decision, we two sisters will risk our lives to be with him. This is also called husband singing and wife following!" The two said in unison.

Only then was Yang Yong happy, and asked them to keep their secrets and pack up quickly. After everything was ready, Yang Yong held a short meeting with the main generals in the army and told them that he was going to Daxing City. After he left, Everything here is under the command of Li Jing, the military advisor, and he will return as soon as he goes, without delaying for too long. He must step up his military training, and it is not appropriate to use troops before returning to the camp.

Li Jing and the senior leaders nodded.After dark, Yang Yong and two beauties and wives dressed up in common people's clothes and concealed sharp knives.

After Yang Yong and the others left, Qu Tugai, who had come back from Li Jing's escort of food and grass, called to him and whispered a few words to him, and Qu Tugai took the order and left.

According to Yang Yong's instructions, Li Jing sent someone to send a letter to the Pei family father and son in Qingyao Mountain on a fast horse, telling them to stand by and rest their troops and horses, and not to use troops without orders.Then, they sent far and near meteor scouts to find out about Wang Shichong and the Wagang Army in Luoyang, and at the same time stepped up the training of soldiers and horses.

The line of sight temporarily turned to the camp of the Wagang Army outside Mengzhou City.After defeating Yang Yong's rebel army, Xu Maogong's main force drove unhurriedly to Huaishupo. The camp had already been set up here, and generals Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Cheng Yaojin, Wang Bodang and others brought Xu Maogong into the camp. .

Xu Maogong ordered people to record all the merits of the generals in the merit book, and reward them according to their merits after returning.After rectifying the soldiers and horses and cleaning the battlefield, Qin Qiongdao saluted and said, "Military Master, what should I do next?"

"According to the prince's order, we should ask Wang Shichong for the five counties in the north."

As soon as Xu Maogong said this, Cheng Yaojin took over the words: "We rescued Mengzhou for them. The general in the city didn't even say a word of thanks, and he guarded us like a thief. I think Wang Shichong is following us. Playing tricks, we have been treated like fools, and I think Wang Shichong will definitely not give us these five counties, so let’s just win the nearby Mengzhou first.”

"Brother, we can't act recklessly, we should act according to the prince's order." Xu Maogong stopped Cheng Yaojin, and sent generals Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin to take over [-] troops to take over Boai and other five counties in the north of Luoyang with the commitment document signed by Wang Shichong.

As a result, I went quickly and came back in a hurry.Seeing Xu Maogong, Qin Qiong saluted and said: "Military division, Wang Shichong promised to return the five counties in three months on the grounds that it would take time to evacuate the people in the five counties. He also said that our two families still need to cooperate and meet us to continue south and west. The rebel army who attacked Yang Yong divided the land between our two families equally. The messenger has already been sent to our cottage, what should we do?" Xu Maogong frowned upon hearing this.

Luo Shidao: "Military officer, Wang Shichong is playing tricks on us. He promised to give me five counties, but he wants to evacuate the people in the city. Once the people evacuate, they will definitely take away the livestock, money, food and other supplies, maybe even the houses. It’s about to be demolished, what’s the use of having five empty county towns then?”

Cheng Yaojin sneered and said, "Brother Luo is wrong. Wang Shichong didn't intend to give it to us at all. He was playing with us, and we were all fooled. After three months, he might find any excuses. This old man The boy is so hateful!" Looking at Xu Maogong, "The military commander orders, even the five counties in Mengzhou, Luoyang and the north will be taken by him. If he is unkind, don't blame us for being unrighteous. Send someone to send a letter to Brother Wei. Two armies Going forward hand in hand, this is also what our lord means."

Wang Bodang was so angry that he jumped up and down, pointing in the direction of Luoyang and yelling at Wang Shichong: "Idiot, how dare you deceive me! Brother Cheng is right, you must give him some color! The general wants to take the lead and kill them all!" Here it is, military, you can divide your troops and send generals!"
