After Li Shimin went back, he felt uneasy. That night, he sent several groups of people to leave Chang'an, and headed north quickly to check for news about Yuchi Jingde and Jingyang.

From evening to early morning of the next day, and then in the afternoon, none of the people sent out could come back, and they might never come back again.

This situation just shows that Jingyang is really in danger now.

"Your Majesty, General Yuchi has only 5000 men, how can he stop the 20 army of old bandit Xieli?"

Wei Zheng said anxiously: "Your Majesty, please give an order as soon as possible, stick to Chang'an, stick to Chang'an, we can persist in the support of other state capitals. What kind of bluff, suspicious tactics, I think it is not feasible, absolutely can't believe it, I will go to the fortune teller tomorrow. Catch him and question him."

"Your Majesty, if that fortune-teller is really capable, he wouldn't just set up a fortune-telling stall in the West Market. I don't think I can trust this person's words."

Fang Xuanling said in agreement.

After this period of precipitation, almost all the people close to Li Shimin in the court knew about this matter, and felt that it was a suspicious strategy, vulnerable to the Turkic army, and the risk was extremely high, so they should stick to Chang'an now.

"A fortune teller is nothing more than a marketer or a liar. How can you believe his words?"

"Your Majesty, please don't entrust the important affairs of your family and country to a fortune-telling liar. For the current plan, the only way is to stick to Chang'an and wait for support. Your Majesty, please think twice!"

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

The sound of their petition echoed in the Ganlu Hall.

Li Shimin clenched his hands tightly into fists, hesitating, and his heart began to waver.

Or, that person is really a liar...

"Pass down my order to fortify the wall and clear the country, stick to Chang'an, and at the same time go to welcome General Yuchi back."

Li Shimin struggled to the end, and said loudly: "General Cheng, go to Wannian County immediately and bring Li Yi'an back to me."

General Cheng is Cheng Yaojin. In such a formal occasion, he would usually be called by official title or title of knighthood. He obeyed the order and turned around to run outside the Ganlu Hall.

"Your Majesty, good news, good news from Jingyang..."

At this time, Du Ruhui, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was in a hurry to walk in, and almost bumped into Cheng Yaojin.

Du Ruhui hurriedly pushed Cheng Yaojin away, walked quickly into the Ganlu Hall, and said out of breath, "The Ministry of War has just received the news of General Yuchi's success. He defeated the Turks in Jingyang and captured the Turks. Level, General Yuchi's victory!"

After he finished what he wanted to say in one breath, there was a sudden death-like silence in the Ganlu Hall, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Those eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

Yuchi Jingde was really able to defeat the Turks with 5000 men in Jingyang and capture the enemy general.

The fortune teller was right!

Demon!

Even Cheng Yaojin, who was about to catch Li Yian, stopped at this moment and looked back at Du Ruhui in surprise.

Wei Zheng's body trembled slightly, and a stormy sea arose in his heart.

He kept thinking, could that fortune teller really be able to predict the future?Even such a major event in the world can be calculated accurately!

No way, it can't be true!

How good can a fortune teller under the age of 20 be?

"You look at me like that, what happened?"

Du Ruhui felt that the atmosphere in the hall became a little strange.

"Hurry up and show me the good news, hurry up!"

Li Shimin couldn't calm down, and stood up excitedly, his eyes were very hot.

Du Ruhui hastily submitted the victory report.

Li Shimin read it again and again, making sure he read it correctly, and asked eagerly, "Is the news reliable?"

Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said: "The person who sent back the news is a soldier under General Yuchi's command, absolutely reliable."

"Okay, great, hahaha..."

Li Shimin laughed loudly when he heard it, and said excitedly: "Li Yi'an, you really have a clever calculation, Jingyang really won a big victory, and you made the right calculation."

However, his smile froze again at this moment, because Li Yi'an also said that even if he wins, it doesn't matter, the Turkic people will come to the north bank of the Weishui River and march to the city of Chang'an.

Even if he could really predict this in advance, he would not be able to deal with it. The strength gap between the two sides is too great to stop the Turks.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Du Ru asked in a puzzled manner.

The Turkic army is going south, and the military department is under a lot of pressure. He has been busy in the military department, and he doesn't know what happened. And Li Yi'an, who is this person?

How has he never heard of it.

"Chang'an, don't stick to it, I want to bluff."

Li Shimin decided to take this gamble. Anyway, the situation is so critical, and they have nothing to do. Li Yi'an has repeatedly mentioned the Turkic incident, with a high degree of credibility, and continued: "Two days later, I will go to the bank of the Wei River in person. , face Xieli directly."

"Your Majesty, I think this matter needs further consideration!"

Wei Zheng is in a hurry, Li Shimin is their backbone, if something happens to him near the Wei River, what will they do?

"Okay, I've made up my mind."

Seeing that the rest of the people wanted to persuade Li Shimin, he said decisively: "When I led the troops to fight, from the Turkic Shibi Khan at the beginning to Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and others later, when was I afraid? , I’m not qualified to make me afraid.”

Thinking of the years of fighting on the battlefield, although it was dangerous and difficult, Li Shimin still has infinite nostalgia in his heart.

Seeing Li Shimin like this, everyone didn't dare to persuade him any more.

On the 28th, the blink of an eye is approaching.

This morning, Yuchi Jingde really did what Li Yian said, he couldn't beat the Turks and retreated.

At noon, the Turkic army finally came and gathered on the north bank of the Wei River, shocking the whole country.

When the people in Chang'an heard the news, they all panicked. They had just experienced the coup d'etat in Xuanwu Gate, and they were about to encounter a Turkic siege. For them, it was like experiencing a disaster.

"His Majesty!"

Fang Xuanling hurriedly walked into the Ganlu Hall, and said: "The Turks sent envoys to come here, and if they want to see His Majesty, they are just outside the city."

The Turkic envoy wanted to see him, and Li Yi'an was right about this matter again!

Wei Zheng's heart shuddered again, he no longer dared to question Li Yi'an, thinking in his heart, even if Yuan Tiangang was here, he would be far from such a person.

Too monstrous!

However, Li Shimin was overjoyed. The more Li Yi'an's words were fulfilled, the more it proved that his strategy was feasible.

"Catch me that obsessed mind!"

Li Shimin swept away the depression of the past few days, and said loudly: "Come here, gather troops and horses, and then follow me out of the city. I want to see Jieli!"

This time, no one objected.

After a while, the Turkic envoy was arrested.

Li Shimin personally led Gao Shilian, Fang Xuanling and other six cavalry, with a thousand Xuanjia troops behind him, directly came to the edge of the Wei River, and shouted to Jieli across the bank.

"Li Yi'an, I hope you don't let me down!"

At this time, Li Shimin began to worry again, after all, this time he was betting his own national destiny.

If it fails, even if the Tang Dynasty is not destroyed, its strength will be greatly reduced, and even the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty will reappear.

At the same time, the gate of Chang'an City was opened wide, and the flag was fluttering in the wind.

This is full of momentum, it looks like it really wants to have a fight with Xieli on the edge of the Wei River.

All these developments are carried out one after another according to the track Li Yian said.

After a round of dialogue, Li Shimin directly accused Jieli, and then ordered the remaining soldiers in the city to line up at the gate of Chang'an, orderly, and with strict military discipline.

With such a military appearance, Xie Li was really flustered when he saw him. He couldn't find out the real situation of Chang'an. He didn't dare to attack rashly and was willing to negotiate with Li Shimin.

Two days later, the two sides reached a consensus to re-sign a peace agreement, and then the Turks withdrew.

"Retired, Turk really retreated, and the master was right again!"

Li Shimin looked at the Turkic army retreating north, his face was full of excitement and excitement, and said: "Even if the gods descend to the earth, it's nothing more than that!"

For Li Shimin, although he was aggrieved by the Weishui peace talks this time, if he could keep Chang'an, why would he not have a chance for revenge in the future?

Wei Zheng, who was at the side, felt his cheeks were burning hot.

This face hurts so much.
