Zhang Xuansu said, "How can Tang Jun’s strength be defeated by Zheng Jun? If they are defeated, it will not be a big loss. If they win, it will be a decoy."
Li Chongjiu nodded when they discussed for a while. At this time, twenty thousand troops of Xu Shiji Wang Mahan on the north bank of the Yellow River were on a roll.
Li Shentong, the king of Huai ‘an, lost ground all the way and continuously attacked Xinxiang. Li Shentong, the two counties in Jia, lost his troops and retreated to the river city. Liu Dewei’s department met to contain the defeat, while Su Dingfang, the striker of Xu Shiji, led the army to attack less than 30 miles away from Heyang.
Once attacking Heyang means that Zhao can cross the river at any time to rescue Luoyang. If Li Chongjiu is still in front of the tiger prison today, then Xu Shijie’s 20,000-strong army can take the lead. Not only can Luoyang be saved, but Tang Jun is also in danger of being cut off at any time.
Xue Wanshu said, "Huang Junhan, the general manager of Tang Jun, has been defeated. Liu Dewei, the general manager of the March in Luzhou, Li Tang, has a major military force. There are not many military forces guarding Heyang. It is not a problem for Xu Wang and two generals to attack Heyang, but it is just to see how long Heyang Tang Jun can hold on."
Li Chongjiu’s whip pointed to the map and said, "Cheng Mingzhen Water Army and Su Dingfang’s fine riding converging attack on Heyang is bound to go. Our army must take the hand and let Xu Shiji Wang Mahan continue to lead the army in depth, regardless of the river. Li Shentong Liu Dewei Tang Jun turned south along the river and attacked the three cities of Heyang."
"promise!" Xue Wanshu drafted a document for Li Chongjiu and ordered people to cross the river to send Xu Shiji to the army.
After dealing with the army, Li Chongjiu just closed his eyes for a while.
"Urgent report!"
A cavalry came to the camp to stop fighting, and the horses were all muddy. The other side turned over and said to Li Chongjiu, "The striker of Zheng Jun, Yanshi, fell in the east, and Tang Jun surrounded Zheng Guotai and Guo Shiheng. The situation is in jeopardy!"
Zhang Xuansu’s remark was not unexpected to Li Chongjiu.
Xue Wanshu said, "Although Wang Xuan deserves it, we can’t just sit back and send military forces to rescue him immediately or Zheng Jun will be finished."
Li Chongjiu got up and looked at the distant mountains with negative hands but didn’t speak.
Yoshikawa couldn’t help saying, "We can’t afford to delay a moment if we are fighting a fire."
Li Chongjiu turned around and said, "No, our army will stay put!"
Li Chongjiu’s remark that Xue Wanshu and Ji Chuan were all frightened but Zhang Xuansu showed a slightly thoughtful expression.
Yanshi is only 20 miles east of Luoyang. For Wang Xuan, Yanshi is a blessed place for Zheng Jun. At first, it was here that they defeated Shi Biao, which made Shi Biao’s plan to enter the Central Plains fail, but for thousands of Zheng Jun, it became death.
Because of the rain, the Luoshui River surged and the water on the bank of the river was fast, but I saw Li Tang cavalry dressed in Xuanjia on both sides of the river bank fighting out of the dense forest valley, and Zheng Jun abandoned his helmet and fled along the river bank. Li Tang cavalry kept stretching their bows and arrows at Zheng Jun.
Tang Jun cavalry arrows are empty. When Zheng Jun’s foot soldiers are running in a panic, they constantly jump to the ground with arrows in their vests. When they are chasing near, Tang Jun pulls out his sabre. When Zheng Jun is chopping away, he doesn’t see Luoshen on the bank of the Luoshui River. Only when he sees Zheng Jun’s foot soldiers being chopped into the water by Tang Jun, Zheng Jun sees Tang Jun chasing him and jumps into the water to escape. Instead, he is swept away by the rapids.
The death and injury of Zheng Jun on the river bank were terrible. Li Shimin looked at all this leisurely. It was too easy for him to defeat this Zheng Jun.
At this time, the general Hou Jun rode to throw a head in the tunnel. "This is the general Guo Shiheng of Zheng Jun, but I was beheaded in three rounds."
Li Shimin glanced at his head and said, "What general Zheng Jun is just selling the first generation in front of you?"
Hou Jun was very happy to be praised by Li Shimin. At this time, another member of Tang Jun’s general, Cheng Yaojin, came on horseback and said, "Zheng Jun has surrendered to us outside the temple. There are too many Wang Xuan officials and hundreds of Zheng Jun who have retired from the mountain. At the end, they will ask if they want to live?"
"That said?" Hou Jundao said, "If you catch Wang Xuan, you can force him to surrender to Wang Shichong."
Cheng Yaojin said, "OK, wait for someone to get him."
"Wait!" Li Shimin stopped Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin saw that Li Shimin stopped him. He couldn’t help but look on his face and said, "The Palace of the King of Qin, etc. If Zhao reinforcements come to Laocheng, my cooked duck will fly."
Li Shimin glanced at Cheng Yaojin and smiled slightly. "Solitude means waiting for Zhao reinforcements!"
Hou Jun Cheng Yaojin one leng immediately suddenly.
Hou Jun said, "It’s really a clever plan for the king of Qin to ask Wang Xuan to be lured around to help!"
Cheng Yaojin will Ma Jiao go to the ground and say, "Well, this Zhao army reinforcements can kill a ball when they arrive at my old journey."
Li Shimin said, "Yes, Li Junxian and Chai Shao have ambushed Hou Jun on the shore of Luoshui River. Once Zhao Jun enters the trap, he will plunge into his pocket, while Cheng Zhijie will lead his troops to besiege Wang Xuan. As soon as Zhao Jun arrives, he will pretend to be defeated and retreat and lead them into his pocket."
"promise!" Hou Jun and Cheng Yaojin were both ordered together.
In fact, Li Shimin temporarily withdrew from Tiger Prison. First, because Zhao Jun’s water army has bypassed Tiger Prison, Xu Shiji’s army can attack the river and copy the tiger prison in Tang Jun at any time. Second, because Tang Yuan’s imperial edict has been that if he does not withdraw from Tiger Prison, he will disobey on the spot. Even if he wins this war, Tang Yuan will inevitably break.
Li Shimin adopted circuitous means to deliberately withdraw troops from Tiger Prison, paralyzing Zhao Li Shimin and letting them go west to Luoyang and Tang Jun. So Li Shimin suddenly killed a comeback and defeated Zhao Jun, who was eager to enter Luoyang for clearance. Secondly, before Tang gaozu, he also gave an account, saying that Zhao Jun confronted each other and avoided disobedience and disrespect in the post-war battle.
In fact, where Li Shimin’s tough personality may give up, he will win. Giving Li Shimin half a year’s hard work is to move the battlefield from Tiger Prison to Yanshi, just like Wang Shichong did when Yanshi blocked Shi Biao. This preset battlefield is Li Chongjiu’s showdown.
After a detour, the result did not change, but Li Shimin’s retreat not only resolved his various unfavorable desperate situations, but also won the initiative himself.
Now, Li Shimin looks at the red water and says, Li Chongjiu, don’t play tricks on those intrigues any more. Let’s just fight alone. We’ve been waiting for this battle for ten years from the back of the Wild Goose Gate.
Li Shimin, with a wave of his whip, the steeds neighed and the hooves fell into the rain and fog. Li Shimin waited all night for Yanshi City, and Wang Xuan was also scared when Du Yan and others were tied up in the hills.
However, nearly 10,000 elite Tang Jun waited all night but didn’t wait for Zhao reinforcements. In the morning, the wet fog on the banks of the Luoshui River ambushed Tang Jun and was awakened by running horseshoes.
A general came to Li Shimin and said anxiously, "Urgent report from the master of temple history!"
Shi Wanbao, the general of Tang Jun, sits in Longmen and guards the south gate of Luoyang.
Li Shimin glanced at each other and said, "I wonder if Xiao Xian sent troops to Xiangyang?"
Li Shimin aside grandson avoid way "what’s the fuss about this matter as early as the king of Qin expected Xiao Xian this person resourceful and broken even if the invasion is broken, I dare not north Luoyang decisive battle".
The general bowed his head and said, "It is true that Xiao Xian sent troops to report back to the king of Qin, but it is Zhao Jun … Zhao Jun broke through Xuanyuan yesterday!"
When this statement came out, Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui stopped in the hands of Fang Xuanling, and he almost lost the file in his hand. Xuanyuan, the northern foot of Songshan Mountain, and the southern foot of Songshan Mountain, if the tiger prison is the main entrance to Luoyang in the west, Xuanyuan is the side door.
Once the Zhao army broke through Xuanyuan, it was twenty miles away from Luoyang. Li Tanggen’s soldiers could stand by and watch the Zhao army arrive in Luoyang successfully, which means that the decisive battle between Li Shimin Yanshi and Li Chongjiu became meaningless. Li Shimin’s hard work in Luoyang has been cracked.
However, it is difficult to walk on the trail in front of Xuanyuan, which is not conducive to the entry and exit of the army, and the card is easy to keep and difficult to attack Li Shimin, and the general Sheng Yanshi is stationed. That is a one-off loss.
But what Li Chongjiu can break Xuanyuan? There is no second possibility except Sheng Yanshi’s defection.
Even Li Shimin, who has always looked calm, got up and roared, "Sheng Yanshi is a bad orphan!"
Chapter five hundred and seventy-one Shaolin monks
Zhang Xiaohu strode the Xuanyuan stone steps with a neat eyebrow stick.
He is a Shaolin laity. Before his brother entered Shaolin, his Zhang family had a thousand acres of real estate near Xibaima Temple in Luoyang, which was a well-off family. His parents were worried about food and clothing. Because they lived near Baima Temple, they all worshipped Buddhism, but Luoyang’s famous and good families often gave porridge to the people during the war.
However, after Wang Shichong occupied Luoyang, Wang Shizhen, the brother of Wang Shichong, took a look at his parents’ land instructions. Wang Renze bullied the land and his parents refused to submit. Wang Renze was forced into prison and tortured to death on charges of secretly communicating with Shi Biao.
In the end, Zhang Xiaohu was the only one who escaped from Shaolin Temple. Master Pu Sheng, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, took him in as a lay brother of Shaolin Temple.
At this time, there were many thieves’ temples near Shaolin Temple, which belonged to the stable land. People in the vicinity organized monks to practice martial arts. The monks in the so-called Zen-Wushu temple practiced sticks every day, and hundreds of lay brothers had outstanding martial arts.
Zhang Xiaohu was determined to take revenge. He worked hard with sticks day and night, and soon he became a master among Shaolin laity brothers, especially those who practiced stick skills for three to five years. He practiced it in less than a year.
At that time, when he asked several senior brothers who owned this stick, many senior brothers said they didn’t know.
Zhang Xiaohu didn’t ask too much, but he was bent on revenge. Later, Luoyang, Wang Shichong proclaimed himself Emperor Tai, and Wang Shichong was ordered to be killed by Wang Renze’s poisoned wine. Wang Shi was blocked, and Zhang Xiaohu, the king of Qi, saw that the enemy was getting bigger and bigger, and it was more difficult to avenge himself. He couldn’t help but be impatient.
At this time, the Shaolin Temple was occupied by Wang Shichong because of the temple property, and Zheng made an enemy against Li Tang. Wang Shichong sent a general Sheng Yanshi to Shaolin Temple to make a good marriage. However, the abbot Master Pusheng did not agree because of various considerations, which made Zhang Xiaohu worried. Now the Tang and Zheng wars are a good time for him to avenge his family.
Later, half a month ago, a dozen people stayed at Shaolin Zhang Xiaohu, who was on duty at that time, just stopped him.
The other party’s head is a burly man with several scars on his face. The iron pestle in his hand is full of war gas. Seeing each other’s temperament, Zhang Xiaohu thought that this person was either a Jiang Yang thief who killed a number of people or a general who died in the battlefield for the rest of his life.
Zhang Xiaohu didn’t know what the other night Shaolin meant at that time, but he still treated the other mountain with courtesy as explained by the abbot brothers.
However, the other party didn’t promise to break into Shaolin, so Zhang Xiaohu found that the other party was more familiar with his stick skills during the fight. Finally, Zhang Xiaohu lost, but at this time, the temple had received his warning that 100 Shaolin sticks and monks were rescued.
Zhang Xiaohu is going to be at war on both sides. Suddenly, he heard that several uncles actually called the big fellow brother Zhang Xiaohu who defeated him. Suddenly, he was surprised that the other side was also from Shaolin Temple.
But when I saw each other, I laughed. "Good, good. I didn’t expect my old Tan to leave Shaolin Temple for ten years. It’s really good and prosperous."
Speaking of this, the other party also looked at Zhang Xiaohu and said, "This little nephew dances well with sticks. If I was old ten years ago, I might not have won you."
Zhang Xiaohu couldn’t help but admire and respect this guy who met for the first time, so he was greeted by the abbot Master Pusheng, and several Zen grandfathers actually met the big fellow overnight.
Zhang Xiaohu talked for a whole night after seeing each other being welcomed into the abbot’s refined house, and didn’t come out until dawn. At that time, Zhang Xiaohu looked at the abbot Pusheng coming out of the refined house with a red face and seemed to say excitedly, Shaolin Temple is finally going to build a big temple.
At that time, Zhang Xiaohu had a faint premonition that something important was going to happen in Shaolin Temple.
Zhang Xiaohu later learned that Tan Shibo was actually a general of Zhao, Tan Zong, but what was even more shocking was far more than that. Even the cloth-clothed man was born in today’s Li Tang, and the emperor Zhao was also a lay brother of Shaolin Temple.
It was not long before Zhang Xiaohu heard that the abbot had promised Sheng Yanshi to send 500 monks and soldiers from Shaolin Temple to Xuanyuan to fight for Li Tang, but the fact is that Zhao Jun should cheat Xuanyuan Zhang Xiaohu to know that it was not surprising that Master Pusheng had cheated Sheng Yanshi Amitabha to become a monk, but he didn’t talk nonsense.
