The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 457 Li Yuan is not having a good time
Li Yuanba was so happy that he took the reins and flew on the horse with a pair of hammers in his hand. The horse turned its hoofs like an arrow, not only running fast, but also running steadily. Li Yuanba even danced the sledgehammer a few times on the horse, feeling that Handy.

Just now, his subordinates brought three horses in one after another. Li Yuan lifted the hammers on the horses and couldn't run a few steps. The horses were either lying down or covered in sweat. The horses and hammers are simply overwhelmed.Now it's all right, this white dragon horse is better than his original horse, Li Yuanba is as happy as a treasure.

Suddenly he remembered what happened on the battlefield again, his little black eyes flashed fiercely, and he stammered: "Second...Second brother, wait for the younger brother to smash... smash the city gate, and smash Yang...Yang Yong's shit out !” With that said, he broke his horse and left.

"Yuanba can't do it." Li Shimin shouted to stop him. One sentence from Li Shimin was better than a hundred sentences from others.

"Yuanba, remember today's lesson. There are people beyond the people, and there is the sky beyond the sky. Yang Yong's strength is not inferior to yours, and the arrogant army will be defeated. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. When the emperor's will comes, we will rescue Sister Pingyang and the two sisters." As a young guard, Yang Yong will fight to the death. At that time, Yuanba will have a chance to avenge today's shame."

"Okay... okay, second brother, Yuanba listen... listen to you. But the imperial father's edict... why hasn't the decree arrived yet? It's all good... It's been a few days, I'm really... very anxious. "

"Don't be impatient, it should be soon." Li Shimin was also very anxious, and after persuading Li Yuanba, he returned to the camp with a large group of people.

In the evening, Li Shimin called Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui to discuss countermeasures.Fang Xuanling said: "Your Highness, it can be seen from today's battle that Yang Yong's troops are insufficient. The reason why he didn't take the initiative to attack must be waiting for reinforcements. We can't let this opportunity pass by. Linyi City is like a fortress of copper and iron, so we don't have to attack for now. Linyi, on the surface, is spending time with him here, but secretly he is attacking the nearby prefectures and counties, and isolating Linyi city."

Li Shimin nodded: "It's just that we should take it first? To the south are Yucheng and Jeju, to the east are Binzhou and Dongying, both of which are Yang Yong's territories."

Du Ruhui said: "Currently we have enough soldiers, and Yang Yong can't afford to take care of them. We can do both. Jeju is an important place in Shandong, and the two armies will finally encircle. If we can take Jeju, Yang Yong's troops will lose their footing in Shandong. "

Li Shimin made a decision immediately. He led 10 troops under the city of Linyi to form a large army to overwhelm the border, but he did not start a war with Yang Yong. The main general, Li Xiaogong as the deputy general, led [-] troops to the east to attack Gaoqing, Binzhou, Dongying and other places, and then sent troops south; let Youyan King Luo Yi as the chief general, and Liu Shishan as the deputy general, led [-] troops to the west and south to attack Yu The city and the plain, and then marched eastward, and the two groups joined forces in Jeju and took Jeju in one fell swoop.

After the two groups of people took orders, they made meals at the fourth watch and set off at the fifth watch the next day. They left Li Shimin's camp without anyone noticing.

A few days later, news of success spread frequently, and Liu Heikai and Li Xiaogong lived up to their trust and captured Shanghe, Gaoqing, Huantai, Binzhou, Dongying and other counties in one fell swoop, and they were moving south to outflank Jeju.At the same time, Luo Yi's team was also unambiguous, Lian Keyu City, Jiyang and Yuanyuan County were heading south, and the two groups of people were like a broken bamboo, forming a siege towards Jeju.

Li Shimin was very happy when he heard that.Just at this time, there was a report from a horse scout that Wuyang County (now Guan County, Shandong Province) found Yang Yong's reinforcements, about [-], led by Su Dingfang and Wu Tianxi.

Li Shimin was taken aback when he heard that, these 5 men were nothing, the key point was that these two generals were so famous that Li Shimin did not dare to underestimate them.Of course Li Shimin knew that the young hero Su Dingfang was originally a subordinate of Hebei King Dou Jiande.And Wu Tianxi, a descendant of Wu Jianzhang, the loyal and filial king, is a cousin of Wu Yunzhao, Marquis of Nanyang. He has gold in his hands and sits on a blue dragon horse. He is a fierce general who dares to compete with Yuwen Chengdu. He is currently one of Yang Yong's five tigers. Will be one.As soon as this team came, Yang Yong was like a tiger with wings added, this battle would be difficult, no, we must send elite troops to stop them.

After making up his mind, Li Shimin called Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui to discuss. After Fang Xuanling's plan was resolved, Li Shimin decided that Luo Yi's men would not have to go to Jeju, but diverted to Wuyang to block Su Dingfang's men.

The reason why Li Shimin temporarily adjusted his strategy was because the two groups of troops fought so smoothly, it was almost destructive. In just a few days, they took down more than ten counties in the east and south of Linyi.Li Shimin analyzed it with the eyes of a military strategist and a strategist, and he understood that Yang Yong's troops were not vulnerable, but that Yang Yong's main force was mainly concentrated in Linyi, Qinghe, Wucheng, Dezhou, Hengshui, etc. in the west of Shandong. area, while the eastern and southern troops are empty.Therefore, Liu Heita and Li Xiaogong's elite troops are enough to attack Jeju, and Luo Yi's powerful army is drawn out to deal with Su Dingfang's troops.Practice has proved that Li Shimin's decision is wise.

After the messenger school left with Li Shimin's order arrow, Li Shimin couldn't be happy anymore. Don't look at so many lands in Shandong, because the imperial edict he waited for has not arrived yet. Dare to make a choice, this matter has weighed on his chest like a huge boulder for the past few days.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin lingered in the tent again, Bingzhou is not that far away from Linyi, it has been almost ten days, why hasn't the emperor given instructions?If this drags on, after Yang Yong's capturers from all walks of life arrive, our army will no longer have the advantage, and this battle will be difficult to fight. Could it be that something happened to the capital?
Li Shimin couldn't wait, and sent a few small school horses to Bingzhou overnight to inquire about the news.

The camera temporarily shifts to Bingzhou City, the capital of Tang Dynasty.Li Shimin guessed rightly, something really happened in Bingzhou at this time, Li Yuan is not having a good time in Bingzhou these days.

Half a year ago, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty Li Yuan sent two sons and one daughter to raise troops in three groups to crusade against Yang Yong and Han Dongguo in order to complete the great cause of the unification of the world.However, except for his second son, Li Shimin, who reported frequent successes, the other two groups made him frown.First of all, Li Jiancheng's men were blocked in Tongguan by Xu Maogong, making it difficult to advance.

Li Yuan is very disappointed with this crown prince now. Li Jiancheng is his eldest son and also the legal crown prince. Over the years, he has followed him to fight in the north and south, blocking east and west, and at first he was quite satisfied with this successor.However, with the strong rise of the second son, Li Jiancheng's southern expedition failed, which turned Li Yuan's satisfaction into disappointment.

Li Yuan thinks that he has devoted the most effort to Li Jiancheng. Compared with Li Xiuning and Li Shimin, he is even biased. He gave Li Jiancheng 20 elite soldiers, while Li Xiuning and Li Shimin had only 10 soldiers when they went out. A counselor left and right shot Pei Ji, and Li Wenjing was assigned to him. The military generals included Yu Chi Jingde, a general in soap robe, Li Shen, a general of Youyiwei, and Chai Shao, a son-in-law. But why can't they beat Xu Maogong and Qin Qiong's 10 horses?Yu Chigong was also captured, and the two sides fell into a deadlock of confrontation.

Li Yuan was worrying about this matter, when the bad news came again, his daughter Li Xiuning's team started off smoothly, but they encountered Yang Yong's team in Linyi, Shandong, and they suffered consecutive defeats and lost troops.

Li Yuan frowned even more after hearing such a battle report, what happened to Ning'er?In terms of martial arts, she is no worse than Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, and she is also supported by Li Xiaogong, Luo Song, Ma Sanbao and other generals. How can this situation happen?What's the matter?Previously, our father and son were invincible across the world. Could it be that Yang Yong, a remnant of the former dynasty, who is dissolute and dissolute, has really become my Tang Dynasty's formidable enemy?No, I want to personally conquer and help Ning'er. This time, Yang Yong must be eradicated!

Just as Li Yuan made such a decision, someone came to report that the eldest prince of the Western Turks, Tong Kebi, brought an envoy to propose marriage. Li Yuan was taken aback when he heard that...
