Shangguan Yi had sharp eyes and said, “His Majesty, the minister suggested to rectify the soldiers and horses. After a few days, he quickly sent troops to kill the Longyou Dao. Now Li Shimin’s army has been defeated. It was the people of Great Tang who were alarmed and the best time to deal with it. Now when we go to fight, we will win the possible fight and sweep all over the place.”

As a staunch fighting faction, Shangguan Yi hopes to continue fighting.

Enter Great Tang and tear off a piece of meat from Great Tang.

He knows that it is impossible to destroy Great Tang. Even so, if you enter the territory of Great Tang and take the area of ​​Great Tang Longyou Road, you can drive straight in the next step and approach Cháng’ān directly, the Great Tang Imperial Capital.

Li Jing heard what Shangguan Yi said, but he never expressed his attitude, still thinking in his heart.

Ma Zhou opened the mouth and said: “His Majesty, the minister agrees to send troops.”

Xue Rengui, Xiao Yuanqi and the others also opened their mouths and said they all support the continuation Unfolded. Especially before, in front of all the soldiers, Du Qi had already said that he would not break Great Tang and vowed not to stop. Under this premise, the attack on Great Tang is already the general trend, so no one came out to discourage them, they all opened up to fight.

Du Qi nodded.

The state of everyone means that the military will be available next.

It can be a battle.

In fact, this state is also possessed by all soldiers. Although Du Qi’s army suffered huge losses in this battle, in fact, the fighting spirit of the soldiers was extremely high and they were all willing to fight.

Du Qi looked towards Li Jing, smiled and said: “Yao Shi Gong, what do you think?”

Li Jing said: “His Majesty, the minister also agreed to send troops. After all, Xia Country I got a loud voice, and I took advantage of the victory to pursue it, in a spurt of energy, and entered the Great Tang territory. But before that, the minister believed that all the hidden piles lurking in the Great Tang territory should be sent to them to promote the news of Li Shimin’s defeat. And the results of this battle Statistics. In terms of Great Tang, Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji, and Qin Qiong all died in battle. In addition, there are many others who also died in battle. These all are advertised.”

“Great Tang definitely doesn’t know about the news of this battle.”

“I only know that Li Shimin is defeated.”

“Wait until all the news spreads, then Great There must be an uproar within Tang. Those who oppose Great Tang will grow stronger and will further restrain Li Shimin. It will be easier for us to attack the Great Tang border.”

Li Jing said: “On the one hand, it is the influence of public opinion, and on the other hand, His Majesty’s army continues to attack. The two-pronged approach can achieve the invincible effect.”

Du Qi nodded and said: “The pharmacist said, It’s an old-fashioned strategy. This arrangement is the most appropriate. Shangguan Yi, you arrange for all bad people to take a walk in the Great Tang territory.”

“Order of the minister!”

Shangguan Yi responds immediately.

Du Qi looked towards Xue Rengui again and said: “Xue Rengui, all soldiers in the army, rest for another five days. At the same time, recruit soldiers to replenish their strength. Five days later, we will send troops and enter the territory of Great Tang.”

“Yes!”

Xue Rengui responded immediately.

Du Qi discussed many other things with everyone, and everyone went busy to prepare for the next battle.

On the other side, the retreating Li Shimin directly withdrew from the border of Suzhou and retreated into the border of Ganzhou in Dao Realm, Longyou. At this time, Li Shimin was relieved to rest.

The army rested, Li Shimin looked towards the surrounding soldiers, each soldier looked decadent, battered and exhausted. Except for the Profound Armor spirit rider and battle strength around him, the rest of the soldiers who retreated with them were either injured or exhausted.

The person who is going to count the losses at this moment is Chai Shao.

After counting the losses on the battlefield, he came to Li Shimin’s side and saluted: “His Majesty!”

Li Shimin said: “How is the situation?”

Chai Shao reports: “His Majesty, now there are 868 people left on Profound Armor Jingqi, and the rest of the ordinary soldiers have 4,658 people. And among these soldiers, there is still one Avatar was seriously injured. The average soldier who can really fight is about 3,000.”

shua!

Li Shimin’s expression changed again and again.

The loss is too great.

You must know that Li Shimin was going to destroy Du Qi this time, didn’t expect, his own troops were all damaged on the front line of Suzhou, leaving only three thousand soldiers.

Li Shimin looked towards Wei Zheng on the side and said: “Wei Xiang, do you roughly estimate how much the loss of the Xia Country army will be in this battle?”

Wei Zheng said: “Reporting back to His Majesty, the minister estimated that the number of Xia Country’s troops was lost, and it should be around tens of thousands. Compared to our losses, although Xia Country is small, the current strength of Xia Country’s troops, It is estimated that there are only thirty or forty thousand people left. Even with so many people, the battle strength of the Xia Country army is still limited.”

Yu Shinan said: “Wei Xiang’s analysis is good. , But the minister believes that although Du Qi has not much remaining troops, Xia Country will definitely not give up and will continue to fight.”

Chai Shao said: “Du Qi this child, always It is very revengeful. In this battle, he has damaged countless soldiers. So in the next step, if he continues to attack, it is very likely to happen. In short, we still have to deal with it.”

Li Shimin thought about it and said solemnly: “Ganzhou Provincial Governor, if I remember well, it is Liu Hongcheng, he is Liu Hongji’s clan brother, and he is quite good.”

Wei Zheng thought a little, and then continued: “Reporting back to His Majesty, Liu Hongcheng is indeed a good person. Although Ganzhou under his rule is not particularly rich, the law and order in Ganzhou is the best. Liu Hongcheng He is good at managing localities. He is in charge of Ganzhou and should be able to withstand Xia Country’s attack.”

Li Shimin said: “The order will be passed to Liu Hongcheng, and I will appoint him as the governor of Ganzhou and allow him to recruit soldiers. Resist the attack of Xia Country.”

The governor is in charge of military and political power.

Previously, Liu Hongcheng was only Ganzhou Provincial Governor, who was only in charge of government affairs, not military affairs. Now that the military and political power is given to Liu Hongcheng, it is tantamount to letting Liu Hongcheng let go and do things.

Wei Zheng said: “All Listens to your Majesty.”

The rest of the people also praised.

At the time of the crisis, it is the most appropriate arrangement to take extraordinary measures to let Liu Hongcheng control the military and political power.

Li Shimin thought about it carefully and said, “But it’s not enough to just let him resist. Wei Zheng, you assign Gunpowder to Liu Hongcheng so that he has enough Gunpowder. Even with our weapons, It’s not comparable to Xia Country. But at least with Gunpowder, then Liu Hongcheng can have some advantages. In addition, let’s tell Liu Hongcheng his experience in guarding the city.”

“The minister obeys!”

Wei Zheng responded immediately.

Because at the moment, this is the most suitable arrangement.

Li Shimin doesn’t have any troops by his side. He is impossible to sit in Ganzhou himself. And now that there is turbulence in the country, Li Shimin must also rush back to Cháng’ān as soon as possible to stabilize the situation in Cháng’ān and even in Great Tang.

Otherwise, the situation in Great Tang will deteriorate further.

Li Shimin looked towards everyone, saying: “What else do we have to do right now?”

“No more!”

Everyone shook their heads .

Because at the moment, there is nothing more than returning to Cháng’ān.

Li Shimin nodded and said: “The order is passed down, and the army rests for an hour. Then we rushed at full speed and returned to Cháng’ān.”

“Yes!”

Wei Zheng waited to make arrangements immediately.

Zhangsun Wuji was responsible for these things. Wei Zheng is responsible for these things now.
