Chapter 484 487 Flywheel
Liu Heita said angrily: "He wants me to stay in Liyang, he clearly does not trust me, he is afraid that I will vote for you."

Shen Mu said dejectedly: "I was full of hope when I came here, but now I am extremely disappointed, even desperate. I never expected Dou Jiande to be so impatient. Sigh! What's the big brother's plan?"

Liu Heitai replied calmly, and said with a smile: "Is there any good plan? Anyway, I won't live to be 28 years old. It doesn't matter if I die a year earlier or a year later. I will prove to Dou Jiande with my life that I, Liu Heitai, am what I am. one of the people."

Shen Mu remembered that he said that Ning Daoqi once criticized him for not living to a certain age, and Liu Heita missed the opportunity to pursue Susu because of his short life, which is embarrassing.Immediately, infinite feelings surged in my heart, and I sighed: "What is this all about? How could you have the opportunity to talk to Ning Daoqi, who is so ignorant? And how could he be so wicked to reveal the date of death of others. This kind of boring It’s best not to let the person involved know, if he makes a mistake, wouldn’t Brother Liu be innocent?”

Liu Heikai hurriedly said: "Xiao Zhong, please don't disrespect his old man. I can get his advice. It is a fate that has been cultivated for several lifetimes. His old man didn't criticize me for not being able to pass the age of 28, but only said that this is a pass, unless I Be willing to give up the killing career of licking blood with the knife head, otherwise there will be more disasters."

Shen Mu shook his head and said, "I'm the first one not to believe that fate is fate, one is existence and the other is non-existence, so if fate really exists, there is no such thing as if or unless. Just think about it, if there are two kinds of fate Possibility, mobilize the whole body, the change of a person's fate will affect it like an inverted domino, and it will change everything in the end."

Liu Heikai pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "You are right, then I will be dead. Ning Daoqi is clearly trying to comfort me, telling me to cultivate virtue, I am afraid that I will cultivate virtue in the afterlife."

Shen Mu was stunned. He wanted to try to untie Liu Heitai's fate, but unexpectedly it backfired and drove away his last hope.

Liu Heikai laughed and said: "Life and death are determined, wealth and honor are in the sky. The man is shrouded in horse leather. The battlefield is my best destination. It is his grandma's business to die sooner or later. We don't need to bother about it. Why is Ning Daoqi I'm still in a daze if I want to be condescending to guide my future. I heard that you once fought against Ning Daoqi, is this true?"

Shen Mu nodded and said: "It's true, he tried to kill me after persuading me to no avail, but he didn't know how to enlighten me in martial arts, so he left with a smile, it's really strange."

Liu Heita was startled and said, "Maybe he sees that you are the master who will unify the world in the future."

Shen Mu thought of another matter, and his heart trembled secretly, and he replied casually: "Brother Liu, don't joke, it's lucky that I don't die."

Liu Heita sighed: "Xiao Zhong, have you ever thought about why Dou Jiande is so jealous of you?"

At this time, it was only a mile away from the mountain where Xu and Ba were hiding, Shen Mu reined in his horse and stopped, and said with a wry smile: "How do people think about such things? I thought your king was a heroic overlord with a big heart, benevolence and righteousness. Who knew it was just a misunderstanding."

Liu Heikai said: "Although Master Dou wants to be the emperor, he is still a man of affection to this day, but you are too much of a threat to him. Since the Battle of Liyang, you have established a noble reputation in our Great Xia Army. His reputation has the potential to overwhelm Master Dou. Just like Li Shimin is to Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, and you and I love each other more than brothers, and Song Que supports him behind the scenes. It has been torn apart, and his scruples about you are not without reason."

Shen Mu shook his head and smiled wryly: "Brother Liu, go back early. If you send me out of the city like this, your lord doesn't suspect that we are talking ill of him behind his back."

Liu Heikai said calmly: "How can a person who is about to die care so much, you don't have to worry about me. But after sending you a thousand miles away, you have to say goodbye. I will send you here. I hope that our three brothers will have a future together." In the meantime, send my regards to Ziling."

Shen Mu was overwhelmed by the heartbreak of life and death, but he was powerless to change the situation in front of him, and shouted: "Brother Liu, take care!"

Jump off the horse and go away quickly.

……

Ba Fenghan looked at the back of Liu Heitai who was receding away alone, and asked in a deep voice: "What kind of person is Dou Jiande?"

Xu Ziling's heart sank, he felt something was wrong, otherwise Liu Heita should have walked a little longer to say hello to them, shook his head and said, "I'm not familiar with him, so what? Wang Shichong is a good example. If he can keep Luoyang, what will he look like to us?"

Ba Feng said coldly: "Wang Shichong is already finished. No matter which side wins, it will not be Wang Shichong's turn to fight for the world. Wang Shichong asked you for help regardless of face, not to protect the overlord, but to save his life. Because he is close to the Demon Sect According to Li Shimin's always wise decision, Wang Shichong must be killed after the city is broken, unless Li Yuanji stands in the way, there is no second possibility."

Xu Ziling said in surprise, "Brother Feng Han sees things more clearly than me and Shen Mu."

Ba Fenghan said: "I grew up in a difficult environment. I talk about cruelty and cruelty. Everything is done from the perspective of utilitarianism, so I can provide another perspective on everything."

At this time, Shen Mu climbed up the mountain, reached the cliff, sat down on the other side of Ba Fenghan, and sighed: "I finally understand why Shi Feixuan chose Li Shimin as the Allah of the world in the future."

The two were stunned when they heard the words, Shen Mu was not the concubine Xuan, how could he understand the fairy's intentions out of thin air.

Ba Fenghan said with great interest: "Let's listen."

Shen Mu said: "This is not a decision made by Concubine Shixuan alone. It must be agreed by Ning Daoqi, the representative of the Taoist school. Ning Daoqi relied on his way of appraising people, and he can see that Li Xiaozi is the appearance of an emperor from his physiognomy. Therefore, Concubine Shixuan Dare to implement the candidate she supports."

Ba Fenghan sneered and said: "I'm the first one who doesn't believe in fortune-telling, a charlatan's deception, so what about Ning Daoqi? I admit that there is a difference between good and bad, just like the difference between ugliness and beauty, which has a certain impact on luck. But how can there be such an emperor in the world, it is absolutely nonsense."

Shen Mu asked Xu Ziling, "What do you think, Young Master Ling?"

Xu Ziling frowned and said: "Since ancient times, there has been the study of xiangren, and Ning Daoqi must be a person who is proficient in this way. It is reasonable for him to affirm Li Shimin's selection from the perspective of Xiangge. But I agree with Brother Fenghan's view that the world should Without the appearance of the emperor, Ning Daoqi is not a god, and there will always be a chance of making mistakes."

Shen Mu laughed and said, "I hope you didn't say this to comfort me. Damn it, whatever his fate, I, Shen Mu, will never admit defeat. If Li Shimin has the ability, kill me."

Ba Fenghan said in a deep voice: "It should be said that we killed our three brothers."

Shen Mu was moved for a while, hugged Ba Fenghan tightly, and said with a smile: "Didn't you say before that if the situation is not right, Lao Ba, you will run away?"

Ba Han smiled wryly and said: "I, Ba Fenghan, am not that kind of person anymore. I'm going to die and come back to life. If you want to keep everyone together, let's go together."

Xu Ziling said indifferently: "Dou Jiande, have you hit the rocks?"

Shen Mu said dejectedly: "Although what you said is not right, it is not far away! Although he promised to send troops to help, he has deep scruples about me, so I can't make plans for him, so that the sincere cooperation that attacked Li Yang can be reproduced Tiger prison. Alas! Li Shimin sees Dou Jiande very clearly, but Dou Jiande doesn't seem to take Li Shimin seriously, and the result can be known before the war, his grandma's bear."

Xu Ziling said: "With Brother Liu helping him, at least Dou Jiande can fight."

Shen Mu said helplessly: "Old Dou ordered Brother Liu to stay in Li Yang."

Ba Fenghan's expression changed: "Dou Jiande is inferior to Li Shimin in terms of military strength and intelligence, how can we fight this battle?"

Shen Mu's eyes were shining brightly, and he said slowly: "So we have to rely on ourselves. When Li Shimin moved to Hulao to intercept Dou Jiande, it was time for us to counterattack and surround the Tang army. Now we will return to Liangdu first, catch the traitor, and then secretly gather a team The elite troops of [-] people, supported by airships, transported food and grass, and tools for attacking the city and breaking the village. When Dou Jiande attacked Hulao from the east, as long as our army can break through the siege of Luoyang and reach the four sides of Hulao, By cutting off Li Shimin's connection with the besieging army, we will have a chance to win a beautiful battle, and it will not be the Li clan's turn to rule the roost in the future."

Ba Fenghan nodded and said, "You're so brave."

Xu Ziling said: "You and Brother Fenghan go back to Liangdu, and I will take the responsibility of going to Luoyang to inform Duke Yang and Wang Shichong, so as to reassure them."

Shen Mu agreed: "We'll wait for you in Chenliu, and we'll set off after you come. It's best to bring the eagle and the horse."

Xu Ziling said: "There is no problem, but before arriving in Luoyang, I will go to the Jingnian Meditation Room for a walk, and find time to say a few words."

Shen Mu asked in astonishment: "What are you doing now? What can I say?"

Xu Ziling stared at the endless horizon, and said calmly: "I want to send a message to Feixuan through him, telling Feixuan that I have no choice but to embark on a road that she never wants me to set foot on, that's all. !"

Shen Mu and Ba Fenghan crouched on a hilltop on the north bank of the Dahe River, watching nearly ten naval ships of the Tang Dynasty sailing from the Yellow River into the Tongji Canal. They were all small warships with strong maneuverability. A posture that changes at any time.

Under the autumn sun in the afternoon, the sails and masts are shining in the afterglow, and there is a forceful aura of letting our Tang Dynasty warships roam freely.

Shen Mu took a deep breath and said, "Could it be that Li Shimin had predicted everything so far and knew that we would return to Pengliang, so he sent troops to intercept it first?"

Ba Fenghan said: "Who can stop us, oh! Another boat is coming!"

Shen Mu looked towards the west end of the big river, and saw the shadows of sails, more than 20 majestic giant warships, sailing along the river with their heads high and their tails high, escorted by more than ten other small warships, chasing after the vanguard, Drive slowly into Tongji Canal.

The huge ship is full of soldiers and luggage, and has a very deep draft.

When the two looked at me and I looked at you, more than 50 troop-carrying ships and baggage ships full of grain and cargo arrived one after another, followed by more than a dozen small warships of the walking style.

Shen Mu looked at the flag fluttering on the huge ship with tingly scalp, and said with a wry smile: "This is the amphibious combat force commanded by Li Shiji, my mother, Li Shimin ordered him to attack Chen Liu, right?"

Ba Fenghan calculated silently, and sighed: "Your counterattack plan may come to an end. Li Shimin is indeed a master of soldiers, and he seized the first opportunity everywhere. This group of Tang soldiers numbered 3. With the support of a powerful navy , and Kaifeng City, which tightly controls the waterways, serves as the command headquarters. It can be advanced, attacked, retreated, or defended. If it is not enough, the canal can be blocked to intercept any of your troops going north. Frankly speaking, it is still unknown whether you can keep Chenliu. Attacking with the current, you are defending against the current, and Li Shiji is a veteran general, our situation is very unfavorable."

Shen Mu was puzzled and said: "Does Li Shimin underestimate Dou Jiande too much? This group of elite naval forces should continue to travel east to protect the cities of Niuzhu, Banzhu, Xingyang, and Heyin. Isn't it a sledgehammer to deal with my young commander's army? "

Ba Fenghan shook his head and said: "How could Li Shimin carelessly underestimate the enemy, there must be another way to deal with Dou Jiande's army."

Shen Mu was startled and said, "I understand!"

Ba Fenghan was surprised: "What do you understand?"

Shen Mu said in a deep voice: "I understand Li Xiaozi's strategy against Dou Jiande. In fact, when he intercepted us in Dahe the night before yesterday, he revealed the clues. He used the tiger prison to resist Dou Jiande. Sigh! Li Xiaozi is indeed a general, let Dou Jiande Cross the river to attack the east and west cities of Hulao. As long as he gains control of the river and I cannot go north, Dou Jiande's army will become a lone army that penetrates into the enemy's territory. If Li Shimin sends people to encircle the rear and cut off the food roads, the morale of the army will definitely be shaken, and Li Shimin will have a chance to break it in one fell swoop."

Ba Fenghan changed his face and said: "Then what should we do, do you want me to warn Dou Jiande?"

Shen Mu sighed: "Dou Jiande is full of confidence now, he doesn't listen to anything, especially the advice given by me, he would think that I framed him. Alas! Let's talk after crossing the river! If you can't keep Chen Liu, give him The Tang navy goes south along the canal and reaches Jiangdu, and my young commander will be uprooted by Li Shiji, and he will be finished earlier than Luoyang."

Ba Fenghan jumped up and said, "It's not too late, let's go right away."

……

When Shen Mu and Ba Fenghan arrived in Chenliu, a surprise that was beyond their expectations was that Xuan Yong and [-] young commanders were dispatched to greatly strengthen Chenliu's city defense. The defensive facilities of Chenliu City were added, and eight stone villages were built day and night in strategic points outside the city and on both sides of the canal. With high morale, the soldiers and civilians fought for survival.

In addition to Xuan Yong and his two capable lieutenants Gao Zhiming and Zhan Gongxian, Bu Tianzhi commanded a young marshal navy consisting of three huge warships, 24 airships and 33 sea-type fighting ships, also guarding the waterways around Chenliu.

With the addition of Chen Changlin's [-] defenders, the total strength of Chen Liu's Marshal's Army reached [-]. Although it was not enough to attack Kaifeng, it was more than enough to defend Chenliu.

Xuan Yong and Luo Qifei came to greet them upon hearing the wind. All the trees near Chenliu had been cut down, and they were left bare. The two of them were discovered by the sentry towers set up on the hills five miles away from the city. Xuan Yong and others in Huicheng.

After Shen Mu introduced Ba Fenghan to Xuan Yong and Luo Qifei, he was surprised and said, "How can you predict that Li Shimin will send troops to attack Chen Liu, and make preparations first?"

Xuan Yong said happily: "We don't have the ability to predict, but we have to admire the foresight of the military commander Xu. After the young commander left, the military advisor went to Zhongli to discuss with us. He thought that Li Zitong was not worth worrying about, so he could move heavy troops to Liangdu and Chen. Stay here to deal with any sudden change, and when the young commander needs it, he can even send troops to attack Hulao or support Luoyang, otherwise it will be the inversion of priority."

Ba Fenghan stepped on the empty horse led by the soldiers, and said with a smile: "Your Xu Junshi should be upgraded to Xu Guoshi."

Shen Mu laughed, nodded and said: "It makes sense, the thought of what I did was more thorough than mine."

Then he asked Luo Qifei, "What's happening in Kaifeng?"

Luo Qifei respectfully replied: "After the naval reinforcements of the Tang Army arrived in Kaifeng, they stood still and faced us. We were undecided about offense and defense. Fortunately, the young commander came back to preside over it. We don't have to worry about defense and battle anymore. debate."

Shen Mu asked in surprise, "Who is the main fighter?"

Xuan Yong said calmly: "It's my subordinates. Xia's army rests on Wuzhi and crosses the river at any time. If we don't cooperate, we will miss the opportunity."

Shen Mu was slightly astonished, showing a thoughtful look, jumped on the horseback, put on a thumbs up with a smile on his face, and said, "As expected of the number one general in my young commander's army, he is not timid in the face of a strong enemy. So who is in charge?" OK.

Everyone rode and followed, Xuan Yongdao: "It's a military adviser, he said that you must first contact the young commander, figure out the situation, and then decide to advance or retreat, otherwise if you lose the battle, the enemy will go south along the canal, and the young commander will be uprooted. I also agree with the opinion of the military division.”

Shen Mu said happily: "You guys have discussions and plans, and you are really lucky for my young commander. Lao Ba and I must rush to Luoyang before dusk, and hope that everything can be arranged within a few hours."

Shen Mu and Ba Fenghan entered Chen Liucheng, Xuan Yong ordered people to set up a feast of food and drink in the inner hall, accompanied by Xu Xingzhi, Bu Tianzhi and Chen Laomou.

By the way, Xu Xingzhi reported the situation of the Young Commander to Shen Mu, halfway through the conversation, seeing that Shen Mu and Ba Fenghan were only drinking without touching their chopsticks, he asked in surprise, "Aren't you hungry, Young Commander?"

Ba Fenghan smiled and said: "We had a full meal at dusk, how could we be so hungry so quickly, as for why the young commander suddenly yelled hungry just now, I'm afraid only he and God know."

Xu Xingzhi and Xuan Yong waited for you to look at me and I to look at you, and both felt that things were different.

Shen Mu took the time to toast everyone again, and said with a smile, "I want to ask General Xuan a question first, that is, why did General Xuan intend to attack Kaifeng?"

Ba Fenghan was the first to understand, and he was even more impressed by Shen Mu's ability to talk and joke with soldiers, keeping his face so calm that even he was deceived.

In fact, when he knew that Xuan Yong was in the main battle, Shen Mu became suspicious, because he had witnessed Li Shiji's fleet heading for Kaifeng, and knew that the enemy's strength was higher than that of Chen Liu's army, and the opponent was Li Shiji. However, no matter how conceited Xuan Yong is, against Li Shimin's top general, he has to walk on thin ice and trembling to avoid the danger of slipping. However, the only explanation for his proposal to storm Kaifeng is that the information is wrong.

Kaifeng is only half a day away from Chenliu, so this intelligence error should not have happened.

Xuanyong showed doubts, and said: "The defender of Kaifeng is Shi Danai, with a force of 4000 to [-]. In addition to the reinforcements from the Luoyang theater, the total force is no more than [-]. When it is stable, use the airship to raid the navy at night, then blockade the upper reaches of Kaifeng, and cut off its connection with the cities of Hulao. With sufficient preparations, we have a great chance to conquer Kaifeng, which is weakly defended, in just over ten days city."
