Chapter 189 Internal and external troubles in the Sui Dynasty

After Wang Chen entered Yangzhou City, he did not sit idle. He immediately began to count the casualties and check the situation in Yangzhou City.

In the Yangzhou Palace, Wang Chen sat on the top of the palace, while Xu Maogong and others stood below.

"Your Majesty, after this count, our army has sacrificed more than 21,000 people, seriously wounded more than 5,000 people, and killed more than 30,000 enemy soldiers and captured more than 48,000 people!"

"According to the original estimate of Yu Wenhuaji, Yu Wenhuaji had at least 120,000 troops. From this point of view, Yu Wenhuaji's tens of thousands of troops should have been transferred!"

Xu Maogong stepped forward, cupped his hands, and reported the data to Wang Chen.

Wang Chen pondered for a while, the casualties in this battle were truly terrifying.

"Come to think of it, Sun Xingmin of the Sun family should have thought about giving up Yangzhou City a long time ago, so he transferred away the elite troops left by Yu Wenhuaji. Everyone, where do you think their retreat is?"

Wang Chen raised his head, looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone was deep in thought, but Xu Maogong was pointing to the southeastern part of a map of Jiangnan.

"The Sun family may retreat to the Kuaiji County area next!"

Wang Chen looked at the map and thought about it for a long time.

"Hangzhou, the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou, Jiangdu has been captured by me now. They can only rely on Hangzhou. If they continue to retreat south, they will really have no foothold!"

Everyone nodded. It was indeed like this. Although the land south of the Yangtze River was rich, it was the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou that was rich. If you continue to go south, it will become more and more desolate.

Obviously, if Sun Xingmin wants to compete for the world, he will not give up Hangzhou again. After all, it is still his hometown.

"Take care of Yangzhou City first, and count the casualties of the people!"

Wang Chen pinched the bridge of his nose and said helplessly.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the capital!"

Just when Wang Chen wanted to go down, an attendant came up with a battle report.

Wang Chen took the battle report, opened it and read it carefully.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Xu Maogong asked first.

"Li Yuan, an old fox, divided his troops into three groups to attack Luoyang City, but Li Yuan underestimated Yuwen Chengdu and the others!"

Wang Chen smiled and put the letter on the desk.

"Oh? Your Majesty, could it be the great victory in Luoyang?"

Xu Maogong looked at Wang Chen and smiled, obviously he had guessed it.

"Well, Yuwen Chengdu was at Zhenhu Pass. He single-handedly defeated Li Yuan's eighteen generals and killed nine of them on the spot and wounded nine more!"

"Now, Li Yuan has temporarily withdrawn his troops!"

Wang Chen smiled and explained along with everyone.

Xin Wenli and others were also slightly silent. He was indeed once the best in the world, and he was still very powerful. Li Yuan really couldn't resist it when he tried hard.

"There are also Xue Rengui, Pei Yuanqing and Cheng Yaojin!"

"They encountered Li Shimin's troops, and Li Shimin also brought Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and the Tieguan Taoist, so Rengui and the others were entangled!"

Wang Chen then continued to explain.

"Luo Shixin, although he has no martial arts skills, he has terrifying power. It will be a bit difficult for Yue Guogong and others to deal with him now!"

When Xu Maogong heard Luo Shixin's name, he frowned slightly.

Everyone was silent for a while. Everyone present knew that Luo Shixin was the one who could challenge his own prince in a one-on-one battle in Siming Mountain!

"Fortunately, there is something wrong with Luo Shixin's brain. Xue Rengui knows what to do. I am mainly worried about Li Shimin and the Taoist Iron Crown!" (ps: Li Jing is like a Taoist priest in the novel, and he looks like a master behind the scenes, so

No role)

"Yes, Wei Chen has met Li Shimin several times. When I was congratulating my mother's birthday to Brother Qin, Li Shimin also went there. At that time, I could see that Li Shimin was extremely noble and his words and deeds were extremely decent.

He is a rare person in the world!"

"Your Majesty, I think this Li Shimin may be your fierce rival in the future, Your Majesty!"

Xu Maogong recalled the past and said to Wang Chen more seriously.

"Military advisor, are these words too serious? In his entire life, the prince has conquered the north and south, and Turkic Goguryeo has been defeated by the prince. Now, all the rebels in the world have been wiped out by the prince.

Little Li Shimin, why should you be afraid?"

Zhao Peng was very puzzled and his tone was full of disdain for Li Shimin.

"Hey, the military advisor is right. This Li Shimin and that Li Yuan are my last enemies!"

Wang Chen raised his hand to stop Zhao Peng and said with a smile.

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that their princes actually recognized Li Shimin and Li Yuan.

"Don't underestimate the father and son. From my point of view, this father and son are the only real heroes in this world!"

"As for Sun Xingmin, the head of the Sun family, the guile sect, and even the old bald donkey named Jieyuan, in my opinion, they are nothing more than local chickens and wagyu!"

Wang Chen continued to smile.

Everyone nodded slightly, although they didn't quite understand where Li Yuan's Li Shimin was, but what their prince said was definitely correct.

"Okay, next, you two, Xin Wenli and Luo Cheng, will lead an army of 30,000 to attack the cities around Yangzhou. Anyone who disobeys my order will be killed without mercy!"

Wang Chen stood up and said to Xin Wenli and Luo Cheng.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Xin Wenli and Luo Cheng were overjoyed and immediately stood up and held fists.

Wang Chen nodded. Although Yangzhou and many cities north of Yangzhou have been occupied by Wang Chen, there are still many cities that can be occupied, and many of them have certain geographical advantages.

After the meeting, Wang Chen came to the back garden of the palace, and Lu Bing also appeared in the back garden.

"Your Majesty, there has been movement among the Turkic barbarians in the north!"

Lu Bing said quickly.

Wang Chen frowned slightly, is this Turk coming again?

"What's going on? Have the troops already begun to approach the city?" Wang Chen took a sip of tea and said calmly.

"Not yet, but after Jin Yiwei's exploration, the Western Turks have settled down. The Great Khan of the Turks has been taken down by his son Ashina Shibobi. It seems that he has been killed. If

Today, the Western Turkic tribes completely belong to Ashnash Bobi, and that Ashnash Bobi calls himself Bobi Khan, and he is already deploying his troops and intends to attack Zhenbei City!"

Lu Bing explained.

Wang Chen frowned. He didn't expect that Ashina Shibobi was so powerful that he actually defeated Ashina Shibi.

"This Ashina Shibobi is quite capable. Compared with the old Ashina Shibi, he is indeed stronger!"

Wang Chen said lightly.

"Your Majesty, Zhenbei City has come to report that Ashina Shibobi has assembled an army of 200,000 Turks. Maybe in less than half a month, they will arrive at Zhenbei City!" Lu Bing also said with a frown.

"What a troubled time!" Wang Chen felt helpless and rubbed his brows.

"But it doesn't matter. I have considered these things. Let the Western Turks be handed over to Zhenbeicheng to pass on the secret order and ask He Meng to go to Zhenbeicheng and be responsible for the defense of Zhenbeicheng. Xiao Yu is a good person in internal affairs.

, but it is a little weak in the military area, let He Meng go!"

Wang Chen sat on the stone bench in the pavilion in the center of the lake, looking at the clear water channel in the lake.

"I understand, I will immediately send people to the north to inform General He Meng!" Lu Bing immediately bent down and said with cupped fists.

"By the way, Your Majesty, what about the East Turks? If the West Turks invade, the East Turks will definitely not move!" Lu Bing asked again.

"Send a message to Luo Yi, and let King Yan Luo Yi lead the army to resist the Eastern Turks in Yuyang City and Liucheng County. We only need to resist, and then set up heavy guards at Yanmen Pass and Shanggu Pass to prevent Li Yuan from stabbing us in the back!"

After Wang Chen thought for a while, he said calmly.

"I understand, Your Majesty!"

Lu Bing took the King Wu token given by Wang Chen and immediately disappeared into the back garden.

Wang Chen also felt tired for a while. This troubled world was really chaotic. The internal situation was not settled yet, but the enemy from outside was already attacking.

But Wang Chen also felt a rush of blood boiling. Sooner or later, these offenders would turn into withered bones in the grave. He would let those foreign races know what it means to be inviolable by the power of God!

…Hangzhou…

At this time, Sun Xingmin, Zhang Tao, Kong Deyang and others were sitting together, and the monk Jieyuan also returned here.

"Master Jieyuan, what's going on? Did Japan agree to send troops?"

Sun Xingmin immediately asked Master Jieyuan.

That's right, one of the reasons why Sun Xingmin and the others were not afraid of Wang Chen was to ask for help from the Japanese country across the Great Sui Sea.
