Chapter 207
"My lord! What did Commander Liu Lan say in the letter? You made your lord so embarrassed?" Seeing that Li Daozong was frowning, the deputy general asked hastily.

Since reading this letter, Li Daozong has looked like this, the deputy general is very puzzled, what is the content of the letter?
It can make Jiangxia King Li Daozong, who has always been calm, become what he is now.

"Li Si! This is Liu Lan's request for help, and the prince is mentioned in the letter!" Li Daozong said.

Li Si, the lieutenant in front of him, is Li Daozong's confidant and the person he trusts the most. Li Si was originally not named Li, but he was given the surname Li after he became Li Daozong's confidant.

In terms of giving the surname, it is really a descendant of his old Li family.

Li Daozong told Li Si all the contents of the letter, and Li Si finally understood why this matter had something to do with the prince again.

"My lord! Then what should we do next? Is the person who delivered the letter earlier really the prince's man?" Li Si said.

"It's not impossible. Whether it's true or not, the most important thing now is to rescue Xiazhou. Take my Tiger Talisman, and hurry up with [-] soldiers and go to Xiazhou." Li Daozong said.

Up to now, it doesn't matter who the previous people are.

"The last general obeys!" Li Si took the order, took the tiger talisman from Li Daozong, and retreated.

Li Si gathered [-] soldiers and horses, and went straight to the territory of Xiazhou.

Because the reinforcements in Shengzhou and Lingzhou were not as suspicious as Li Daozong was, they should immediately send troops to rescue after checking that the letters were correct.

On the Shengzhou side, General Zuo Xiaowei Ashinasheer personally led [-] Hu soldiers to the rescue, and asked his younger brother Ashina to guard Shengzhou.

On the Lingzhou side, Xue Guwu, the general of Zuowuhou, was in Lingzhou, and the governor of Lingzhou led [-] soldiers and horses to rescue.

Li Chengqian's men did not take them to Xiazhou, but detoured towards Li Chengqian's camp.

In this way, he missed the people Liu Lan sent to ask for help. Liu Lan's people didn't know until they arrived in Shengzhou and Lingzhou that the reinforcements had already set off for several days.

At this time, outside Li Chengqian's camp, there was constant shouting and killing, and Menggu Atai was attacked by Song Junming.

The two sides entered into a stalemate, and Menggu Etai was holding on tightly. He had already sent people back to ask for help. I believe that Khan would send troops to support him soon.

Therefore, he must stick to it and wait for Khan's reinforcements to arrive before he can counterattack the Tang army.

The prince of the people of the Tang Dynasty was too important to them, and he had to be captured alive no matter what.

As long as the prince of the Tang Dynasty can be captured back, the Tang Dynasty can be forced to cede land and pay compensation, and exchange Xue Yantuo for more wealth and women.

Therefore, even though Menggu Atai was attacked by Li Chengqian and Song Junming back and forth, and was besieged in one place, Menggu Atai did not give up holding on.

At this time, Menggu Etai occupied a high ground, using the terrain and limited supplies, and persisted in fighting the Tang army to the end.

Menggu Etai has been standing here for two days, just two days ago, when Xue Wanche was besieged.

The scout flew a horse to report that a large number of Tang troops had been killed in the direction of Xiazhou, and he knew that the Tang army had received the news and came to rescue.

Menggu Etai immediately ordered to set up an array to meet the enemy. As Xue Yantuo's warrior, he did not allow himself to take half a step back before fighting the enemy.

As soon as the two sides met, no one talked nonsense to anyone, and they started fighting directly. At that time, the two sides were fighting in the dark.

When the two sides were tied, Li Chengqian, who had received reinforcements from Song Junming, immediately ordered the bulldozing to fill up the trench.

Attack Xue Yantuo's army from behind, and Song Junming's reinforcements attack back and forth, destroying Menggu Aitai.

Xue Yantuo's army, who had been copied from the rear, suffered heavy losses, and the defeat was set.

Fortunately, Menggu Etai saw that the situation was not good, and immediately led the remaining forces to retreat to this high ground, which blocked the Tang army's fierce attack.

Otherwise, Menggu Etai would be completely annihilated, but he is not much better now, the [-] army he brought back then is not much left now.

Menggu Etai didn't know how long he could hold on, and whether he could hold on until reinforcements from his Khan Bazhuo arrived.

In the camp of the Tang army, in the big tent of the Chinese army, something is happening.

"Your Highness! Now that the crisis is over, Your Highness should return to the capital immediately!" Song Junming tried his best to persuade Li Chengqian to return to Chang'an.

He didn't want the prince to have any troubles again, the remnants of Meng Gu Etai were no longer a concern, sending the prince back to Chang'an was the top priority right now.

"Don't persuade the governor of the Song Dynasty again. I have already decided to destroy Xue Yantuo. If he dares to attack you today, he will dare to enter the capital tomorrow."

"If Xue Yantuo is not eliminated, there will be no peace in the Tang Dynasty! I am not acting on my own will, but for the sake of the common people in the world." Li Chengqian vowed.

Now that he is here fighting the enemy to death, does it mean that he, Song Junming, dares to lead his troops to retreat back?

If he really dared to do this, he would not be far from death. If something happened to Li Chengqian, he would be charged with framing the prince, and it would not be an exaggeration to destroy his nine clans.

If Song Junming really dared to do this, Li Chengqian would not be merciful, and immediately ordered someone to subdue him, and then control the soldiers he brought.

I have tens of thousands more soldiers and horses who can obey his orders.

As for the matter of marching and fighting, there are so many capable people in his East Palace, so there is no need to worry about it at all, Xue Yantuo will definitely be destroyed.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Li Chengqian, Song Junming could only sigh helplessly, stepped aside and stopped talking.

Things have reached this point, it is beyond his control!Song Junming thought in his heart that after the meeting here, he would immediately write a memorial to His Majesty Li Er, and tell His Majesty Li Er all the things here.

Everything is decided by His Majesty Li Er. In the end, whether the relationship with Xue Yantuo is peace or fighting depends on His Majesty Li Er's will!

This kind of supreme decision-making is not something that Song Junming can control.

"Your Highness! Why don't we continue to attack the Menggu Etai Department, but set up camp here?" A Donggong general asked.

Menggu Etai has now become a frightened bird, and there is not much strength left. It only needs to launch a few more fierce attacks to destroy them.

There was no need to go to great lengths to encircle Meng Gu Etai, they didn't understand why the prince had to do this.

"The widow is waiting!" Li Chengqian said.

"What is Your Highness waiting for?" Cheng Wuting asked.

"Waiting for reinforcements!" Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian was indeed waiting for reinforcements, not only for his own reinforcements, but also for Xue Yantuo's reinforcements.

He had already ordered Xue Wanche to lead some soldiers and horses to set up an ambush on the only way Xue Yantuo's reinforcements must pass.

As long as the other party dares to come, they will definitely let them come and go.

This is Li Chengqian's plan to surround the spot to fight for aid, using Menggu Etai as bait to lure the fish from the Bazhuo army to bite the hook.
