Chapter 177 Changan News

The news brought by Wang Hu just now made Li Chengming, who was originally in peace, stir up a little.

Li Shimin had a strange movement in Chang'an. He believed that this was not accidental, and that it was to mobilize food and grass. Perhaps this time Li Shimin might want to gather a large army to attack him again.

If it was really what he thought, I'm afraid the number of troops that were attacking this time would definitely not be small. After all, the 20,000 troops that had come before were eaten easily by him. Li Chengming felt that Li Shimin would not be so stupid that he sent another army of about a large number to deliver vegetables.

Although I don’t want to say how wise and powerful Li Shimin was, but for so many years, Li Shimin was able to fight south and north, and after hundreds of battles without dying, we can see that this man must be very difficult. After teaching a lesson, he will definitely not repeat the same mistakes.

The problem now is that as far as he knows, Chang'an's current troops plus the imperial guards are only about 50,000 or 60,000, and then Li Shimin will come out in full?

Shaking his head, Li Chengming felt it was unlikely.

From the perspective of his own substitute for Li Shimin, if Li Shimin came out in full swing, then the emptiness of Chang'an City would definitely be some people who dissatisfied with Li Shimin took the opportunity to revive, and Li Shimin would not have put himself in danger in order to kill him.

As for this time Li Shimin led his army to fight, this is possible, but even so, Li Shimin would not be able to empty the entire Chang'an City.

The reason is just like before. Li Shimin became a palace in less than half a month. He was very ambitious and could not kill the court officials in this half month. So this laid some hidden dangers for him.

Whether these court officials who had just surrendered to him really surrendered to him or were just vainly plaguing him? Li Shimin didn't know at all. If Li Shimin really took all the troops away, wouldn't he be afraid of another palace change in Chang'an City?

But don’t forget that Li Shimin is still the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty in name, while the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is still Li Yuan, and Li Yuan is still in the Tai Chi Palace at this time.

Unless Li Shimin went to war, he would also bring Li Yuan with him.

This is not impossible. If Li Shimin really wants to lead troops to fight him this time, it is very likely that Li Yuan would be brought to him.

Now, what Li Chengming is thinking is, does Li Shimin really want to fight him to the death this time?

If this time, Li Shimin would really bring all the troops in Chang'an to attack him, then if Li Shimin still loses this time, he will be indestructible.

However, according to Li Chengming, Li Shimin should not be such a reckless person, otherwise he would not have been able to have his current status.

Of course, these are just his own guesses. How to develop the real thing still needs to wait for the information found by the spies in Chang'an to analyze it.

One day, two days...

Every day, Chang'an scouts sent back the situation they found in Chang'an back to the camp and Li Chengming.

However, because these spies were sent to Chang'an by Cang Kuo, there was not much information they could find. Except for the frequent mobilization of the sixteen guards in Chang'an, there was not much definite news at all.

However, in addition to the news from Chang'an, news from Luo Ning and Xue Wanche has been constantly happening in the past two days.

Xue Wanche did not disappoint him. Even in just two days, Xue Wanche had already taken Weinan and Zheng County, which he had taken, and even reached Huazhou.

Weinan and Zheng County belong to Shangxian and Zhongxian. Taking over these two counties will make Ye Xuan's fortune suddenly rise to about 15,000. As long as he takes over Huazhou, Ye Xuan believes that at least he can increase his fortune by more than 5,000.

The fortune value of nearly 20,000 is almost enough for him to buy six or seven low-level ninja beasts like Zhu Gangli in the system mall. With these six or seven low-level ninja beasts, even if Li Shimin suddenly led a army of 50,000 or 60,000 troops over, he would have the confidence to rush forward and confront him.

Of course, the main reason why Xue Wanche was able to take over Weinan and Zheng County so quickly was to rely on the rubbing of the secret decree issued to Li Chengming by Li Yuan.

As mentioned earlier, Li Yuan is still the emperor in the world. Although Li Shimin has great prestige in the army, Li Yuan is still the lord of the world in the eyes of all officials in the world. With his secret purpose, Xue Wanche, two cities in Weinan and Zheng County, can be said to have been taken down directly without bloodshed.

The reason why it took two days was simply because the two places were far apart, the speed of the march was limited, and the acceptance of these two cities and the reorganization of the soldiers and generals was so slow.

Otherwise, if they were really as capable as these two places to take it without bloodshed, it would be more than half a month and only a few days before Xue Wanche could take Tongguan.

Moreover, fortunately, Li Chengming sent Luo Ning to help Xue Wanche take over the city he captured, which made Xue Wanche not have any worries. After taking the city, he could continue to march directly.

No matter what, it is a good thing for Li Chengming to be so powerful. As long as he can get the Pupil Pass, his luck may be enough to be a big bomber.

Time, time, but the enemy cannot act according to their own wishes.

"Report!" At noon on the third day, a voice suddenly came in outside Li Chengming's tent.

"Come in!" Li Chengming happened to be handling some affairs in the army in the commander's tent. After hearing this voice, he directly spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a young man wearing cloth armor and a squid wrapped in a squid, a simple and simple man walked in. When he saw Li Chengming, he knelt down and said, "See Your Highness the King of Han!"

Looking at the young man's outfit, Li Chengming raised his eyebrows. He had seen this young man's outfit many times in the past two days. It was the scout they sent out to Chang'an to inquire about the news.

"Don't be too polite, but what news has been found?" Li Chengming raised his head and looked at the young scout. Seeing that there seemed to be an anxious look on his face, he asked.

"Report to Your Highness, three soldiers and horses suddenly came outside Chang'an City. According to our investigation, these soldiers and horses included at least 30,000 cavalry and almost the same infantry." The scout quickly told Li Chengming what he knew.

"What?" Hearing this news, Li Chengming, who was originally indifferent, couldn't help but open his eyes, and a look of shock appeared on his face...
