I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 61
In the early morning of the next day, Qian Shan brought some of his subordinates to arrive as scheduled. When they arrived at the gate of the Yanmen Army camp, Xi Zhicai, who had been waiting for a long time, invited him into the tent. After welcoming him in, Qian Shan suddenly felt a little flattered, and was deeply moved by Li Shimin's sincerity.

The two sides exchanged polite greetings, and the host and guest sat down.

"Chief Qianshan, this time you and our armies will work together to eliminate Budugen. The leader's wish is also the goal of our Yanmen Army. I hope that everyone can ignore the past and unite sincerely." Li Shimin said very frankly.

Qianshan also understood Li Shimin's meaning, so he said earnestly: "General Li, don't worry, I, a Xianbei man, am also a spittle and a nail, and I will never break my promise and become fat. The elimination of Budugen this time is also my long-cherished wish."

"Of course, I believe what Chief Qian said. For this attack, my Yanmen cavalry will fully cooperate. But for the Yunzhong Grassland, I think the chief is naturally more familiar with it than I am. If you have any good strategies, please let me know." Li Shimin humbly asked.

One of the reasons why Li Shimin asked this question was because Yunzhong Qianshan was the most familiar, and he would lead the team very smoothly on his own side, so that the enemy would not be discovered too early.On the other hand, he actually hoped that Qianshan could take the initiative to respond internally and give Bu Dugen an internal response, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

Qian Shan naturally understood, and he also understood that if he didn't make great efforts in this battle, and didn't spend a lot of money, how could he have the nerve to monopolize Yunzhong, so he already had a secret plan before he came.

"General, I am very familiar with the Yunzhong Grassland, and I am also very aware of the location of Budugen's royal court. Naturally, I will arrange manpower to lead the team along the way to ensure that their whereabouts are kept secret and no one will know."

Seeing Li Shimin nod his head and nod, Qian Shan continued: "Besides, I have a strategy that I would like to dedicate to the general. I believe it will make a big breakthrough."

"Oh, come and listen to the leader." Li Shimin said with a smile on his face.

"Although Budugen and I are in the same situation, we have the same roots after all. He is the leader of our tribe in name. At that time, I will lead 5000 troops to pretend to be defeated and take the opportunity to break into the royal court. When the time comes, the two armies will confront each other." , we should cooperate inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to wipe out Budugen in one fell swoop."

In fact, this is exactly Li Shimin's plan. With Qian Shan as the internal response, his chances of winning must be much greater.And once he makes a move, it is tantamount to letting him eat this poisonous cake. In the future, he has no other way but to follow him all the way to the dark, and tie Qianshan to his chariot mountain completely.

At the same time, Li Shimin could also feel Qianshan's determination. This person is quite a character, and he understands the truth that he can't bear to let his children be tied to wolves. This time, he also paid a lot of money.

"Haha, this time you and my two armies will work together, and we will surely succeed immediately." Li Shimin was obviously very excited.

…………

The next day, Li Shimin led an army of [-] troops and set off towards Yunzhong with [-] "broken soldiers" from Qianshan. The remaining tribes of Qianshan stayed in Dingxiang for the time being, waiting for his further arrangements.

When the army set off, Li Shimin told Qianshan that he had won the killing pass five days ago, and asked him to think about his speech in advance and how to explain it to Bu Dugen.

This made Qian Shan feel horrified, and deeply felt that Li Shimin acted decisively and was good at making decisions before acting.Li Shimin had already blocked his escape route to the north, and he didn't know why, so if he bumped in, he would naturally die.

Then he secretly thought about countermeasures in his heart, how to deal with Budugen.

When he was about to kill the tiger, Qianshan found Li Shimin and said: "General Li, there is a small road ahead that can bypass the tiger's mouth and go straight to the cloud, but the road is not easy to walk, and few people know it. I plan to go from here and You parted, and I have something to say when I get to the cloud."

"The leader is still thoughtful. In this way, you can say that you can take a shortcut and escape back to the cloud in advance, and Budugen will not doubt you." Li Shimin was in a good mood, and finally there was a good way to make up for this loophole.

"The leader of Mount Qian will bid farewell to this. After five days, our army will take advantage of the unpreparedness to launch a sneak attack. You, leader, must seize the time and arrive at the royal court not too early or too late. The purpose is to make way for Dugen before he can mobilize the army. Our chances of winning will be much better.”

Qian Shan naturally understood Li Shimin's meaning, and said with a guarantee: "Please rest assured, I will live up to the general's entrustment, and I have another thing to trouble you."

"Oh, what's the matter? The leader said it's okay." Li Shimin also asked curiously.

"Haha, I've done a full set of acting, in order to deepen Budugen's trust, I have to ask you to give me a sword and put on a bitter trick." Qian Shan said with a smile.

Li Shimin thought for a while, and felt that what he said was also reasonable, so he drew out his long sword and stabbed Qianshan's left arm with the sword, and blood flowed out instantly, staining his clothes red.

This sword didn't hurt his muscles and bones, it was just a skin wound, and he could recover after a while.

After thanking Li Shimin, Qian Shan led his men and set off along the path in Guancen Mountain.

Li Shimin led the army all the way north, and soon arrived at Shahukou to join Zhang Liao.The army rested here for one night, and the next day, under the leadership of Qianshan's guide, they headed towards Yunzhong.

In order to ensure the safety of his rear, Li Shimin still left 3000 people to defend the pass here, and used local materials to strengthen the city defense.

The army galloped all night, rushing to the destination.Along the way, many generals were worried about whether Qianshan and Budugen would collude, and instead caught themselves by surprise.

Li Shimin also answered them exactly, "No, Qianshan will not give up the opportunity to seize the Yunzhong Grassland, and even if they collude together, I have calculated the time in advance, even if Qianshan sets off non-stop to notify Bu Dugen It will only be half a day earlier than us, and it is still too late to mobilize troops, and he can still be caught off guard."

After everyone heard this, they gave up and hurried forward, thinking about how to kill the enemy.

Under the leadership of the guide, the march all the way avoids the nearby tribes and chooses a sparsely populated route, so it is very concealed.Li Shimin also wiped out all the small tribes that happened to be encountered on the road, so as to avoid leaking their whereabouts.

After 4 days of rapid march, the army finally reached the Helinger area, fifty miles east of Budugen Royal Court, and hid.

Li Shimin asked to send out elite scouts under his command to guard and patrol around. If any barbarians were found within the sight range, they would be shot and killed. They must not be found at this time, otherwise the success would be in vain.
