The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 386 Liu Wu Zhou's Defeat
Li Shimin hated Xue Renguo to the core. After cursing the traitor, he visited Li Xiuning and Chai Shao and his wife. After his sister and brother-in-law's condition stabilized, Li Shimin suggested that before Liu Wuzhou sent troops, he should send troops to attack Dingxiang to wipe out the threat in the northern part of Bingzhou. .

After discussing with Li Shentong, Chai Shen and Li Shentong decided to use troops against Liu Wuzhou again, and sent Li Shimin to attack Dingxiang first. Chai Shen and Li Shentong still stood firm in Bingzhou to prevent Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang from Fenyang from invading.

After Li Shimin took the order, he took his eldest grandson Wuji, Li Yuanba, Li Xiaogong and Yu Chigong with an army of [-] to Dingxiang.The defender of Dingxiang is Li Tinggui, who is also defending the city with [-] troops.But Li Tinggui was a pussy. When he heard that Li Shimin had brought Yu Chigong and Li Yuanba, he was so frightened that he almost pissed his pants.The rescue horses he sent out were almost one after another.A few days later, there was no reinforcements in Fenyang, only the edicts and orders of Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang: the city must be defended, reinforcements will arrive soon.

In the end Li Tinggui waited impatiently, he didn't want the city, he didn't become an official anymore, his subordinates didn't care, and he fled overnight after hanging the seal and gold.

This time, Li Shimin was even more trouble-free, and took down Dingxiang without bloodshed.After Li Shimin took down Dingxiang, he did not return to Bingzhou, but sent his troops south to Fenyang. Liu Wuzhou still sent Song Jingang and Xue Renguo to meet the enemy.

A month later, Li Shimin captured Xue Renguo alive, put him in a prison car and put him in a wooden cage, and sent people to Bingzhou to deliver him to his sister Li Xiuning.

At this time, Li Xiuning's illness was basically cured. Seeing Xue Renguo, Li Xiuning gritted his teeth and asked Xue Renguo why he would betray him. , It's a pity that I couldn't kill you, God has no eyes!

Li Xiuning laughed loudly after hearing this: "My surname is Xue, my dying mother asked you to be a ghost. During the battle of Qingshuihe, your Xiaoshantun grain depot was burned. To tell you the truth, it was done by my old lady. The clothes you wear are all written by Yang Yong’s soldiers and horses. This is called framing, do you know? The reason is that Yang Yong is my sworn enemy of Li Xiuning, and your father and son of the Xue family are also my enemies of Li Xiuning. , you are right to hate Yang Yong! You can also hate my old lady, but God has given you a chance, blame you for not grasping it, and now you have no chance." After finishing speaking, Li Xiuning ordered Xue Renguo to beheaded Down.

A few days later, Chai Shao recovered from his injuries.At this time, Li Shimin defeated Song Jingang.Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang felt that they were far from being the opponent of this teenage boy. After discussing, Fenyang could not keep it. They took Gong'e and concubine, abandoned the capital and fled to Yanmen Pass.So far, Li Shimin only used [-] troops to drive away Liu Wuzhou's [-] troops.

After occupying Fenyang, Li Shimin set up a list to calm the people, strictly enforced military discipline, committed no crimes to the common people, and granted amnesty.This move won the hearts of the people, and not only won the support of the people, but also wise men from all over the world came to vote, the most representative of which were Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

With Fang Mou's decision, Li Shimin is like a tiger with wings added.During the rest period in Fenyang, Li Xiuning and Chai Shao of Bingzhou killed Xue Renguo after recovering, and then Li Shimin, Li Xiuning, Chai Shao and others raised an army of [-] to attack Yanmen Pass.

Unexpectedly, at this time the Turks directly sent troops to help Liu Wuzhou and Li Shimin's siblings fight. After Li Xiuning discussed with Li Shimin, Li Shimin continued to attack Yanmen Pass. Li Xiuning and his wife led [-] troops to Niangziguan. He was driven out of Yanmen Pass and Niangzi Pass.

Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang ran to Ji Li Khan to complain, and asked to borrow troops to make a comeback. Ji Li Khan was furious: "Useless things, repeated battles and defeats, loss of soldiers and generals, frustrating me, what's the use of keeping you? Push it out and cut off your head to show the public !"

Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang yelled "forgive me" and "wrong", but in fact they were all in vain.Ji Li Khan has now seen that these two people are no match for the Li family father and son. He can no longer raise two wastes. Therefore, these two people must die!
Although Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang tried their best to save this life, Ji Li Khan seemed to be a different person, and all the amiable and virtuous corporals in the past were swept away. The two were quickly tied to the execution rack by Turkic warriors superior.

When they were dying, the two seemed to be still dreaming. Anyway, they never expected such an ending. They thought it would be safe to escape to the Turks. It is not known whether they can make a comeback, but at least they can get the asylum of the Turks and save their lives. Worry-free, however, everything is unexpected, which is tantamount to running to the guillotine!
After the defeat of Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang, the Turks entered the "honest period" again.Li Shimin, Li Xiuning, and Li Yuan moved back to the court one after another.

The one who contributed the most this time is Li Shimin. Before Li Yuan arrived in Bingzhou, his ears were already full, because although he is in Jinchang, his heart is in Bingzhou, which is his hometown. He always pays attention to the war in his hometown and the war in Bingzhou As well as Li Shi's outstanding performance, Li Yuan had already been reported to Li Yuan. Li Yuan was very happy, but he didn't expect his second son to be so promising.

Li Yuan defeated the Turks and returned to the court, and the emperor and queen mother went out of the city to greet him.Even though Li Yuan still paid respects to Yang You's mother and son, everyone with a discerning eye knows that Li Yuan is the one who counts in the Sui Dynasty, and Yang You's mother and son are just decorations.

However, Li Yuan is different from Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao. He never deceives the emperor on the surface, and he pays attention to etiquette in private. He only speaks with body language based on his strength. Yang You is young and naturally does not understand, but his mother is a smart woman. He is very good at observing words and expressions, watching Li Yuan's face and speaking.Therefore, their monarch and ministers cooperated very well, so that Li Yuan was very satisfied with their mother and son.

However, what Li Yuan was more satisfied with was that his own children, especially Li Shimin and Li Yuanba, could stand alone now. If it weren't for these two brothers who turned the tide, Li Yuan couldn't imagine what Bingzhou is like now, and what the situation of himself and his wife is.Therefore, Li Yuan rewarded Li Shimin, Li Yuanba, Changsun Wuji, Li Xiaogong and Yu Chigong heavily, and chose a good day and auspicious day to marry Li Shimin's young couple.

However, the good times didn't last long, and the border alert came again: Luo Yi, the king of Peiping, was recruiting troops and expanding his territory everywhere. The prefectures and counties of Mayi, Yanmen, Shenwu, and Kaiyang were invaded one after another.

Li Yuan had wanted to deal with Luo Yi for a long time. He had this idea when Luo Yi abolished the title of King Youyan and established himself as King of Beiping.This time it can be said that the evidence is conclusive, the reasons are sufficient, and it is well-thought-out.

After inviting the emperor, Li Yuan dispatched troops and sent his two sons, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, to attack Luo Yi.His daughter Li Xiuning also asked to go to the expedition. Li Yuan loved Li Xiuning like a jewel in his palm, and he always obeyed his words, and this time was no exception. Today's Huairen area in Shanxi).

Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin also gladly accepted the order, and led Li Shentong, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Yuanba, Yu Chigong, Changsun Wuji, Li Xiaogong, etc., with an army of [-], came to Youzhou mightily.
