Hanjing..

Li Ji reported to the enemy and flew into the capital.

At the center of the miserable clouds and mist, there was immediately a burst of laughter and joy. Fang Xuanling patted his thighs and laughed rare.

"The Prince of Dong really lives up to his expectations and deserves his reputation as the God of War."

Changsun Wuji also stroked his short beard and laughed, "It's great, no one would have expected it to attack Lingnan at this time. The situation reversed, and Dashan. Zhang Chao went north with heavy troops. Now the thief's cave is empty, and now it hits his vital point."

The old commander of the Privy Councilor Qu Tutong was also relieved.

The military finally stood up again. In the past six months, the generals in the military have not dared to speak generously. It is really embarrassing to have a record.

"You should report it to Your Majesty immediately."

"Yes, the Privy Council also needs to prepare and mobilize troops to reinforce."

Several prime ministers quickly ran to the palace.

Li Shimin yawned and just felt good.

Wu put on her clothes and then packed up the memorial that had been swept all over the floor. Although she told the emperor just now that she was pregnant, the emperor did not care at all. When she was in a state of interest, she had to do something on the spot and could not be refused.

Wu endured it silently, but his heart was full of disgust. This man did not care about her or loved her children.

"Your Majesty, the Fang Xiang and the others are here."

"Why are you here again?" Li Shimin frowned. It took him a long time to make a fuss last time, but how long has it been since.

"If I don't see you, I will review the memorial."

"Your Majesty, it is good news. It is said that the Prince of Dong attacked Lingnan and defeated the rebel general Zhang Zhongjian's 50,000 troops, and they are almost invading to Guangzhou."

Li Shimin was stunned.

Is Li Ji so strong?

"Quickly announce."

When a group of prime ministers entered the hall, Wu Meiniang had already been tactful and retreated to the back of the hall.

"Auxiliary machine, did Li Ji really win the battle?"

"Your Majesty, you will win a great victory. Li Ji used a strange plan to quietly detour Yuechengling from Mengzhuling, seize Guizhou, and then quickly went south. Zhang Zhongjian led a 50,000 army to intercept Fuzhou, and Li Ji defeated Zhang Zhongjian and defeated his people. Zhang's bandit retreated to Cangwu, Wuzhou, and Li Ji divided his troops to seize several states in He Cang."

"good!"

Li Shimin shouted ok.

"I am almost disappointed with this Li Ji, but I finally show my power."

Qu Tutong immediately stepped forward.

"Your Highness, this is an excellent opportunity. Now that Zhang Chao's army is heading north, Lingnan is empty. I think that the court should immediately dispatch troops to go south to reinforce. If Lingnan can be recovered in one fell swoop, it will be an excellent blow to the rebels' arrogance and a great increase in morale to the court."

Li Shimin walked around excitedly.

"Very good. Taishi Cheng said that the heavy rain in the south is about to end, and the once-in-a-century flood is about to recede. Now, Li Ji has made such a great contribution again and opened up the situation. It seems that the situation is about to reverse."

When autumn comes, the weather turns cooler.

This is a good thing for soldiers heading south from the north, especially for the imperial army with elite cavalry. There is no need to worry about the hot climate in Lingnan, and war horses can adapt more. Moreover, when autumn comes, the river is shining, which is very convenient.

On the other hand, after autumn arrived, not only did the water levels of major rivers such as Changhan and Han Rivers fall, but many tributaries become shallower. The boats that Zhang Chao relied on were greatly reduced.

"It's time to fight back!"

Li Shimin became excited.

"I want to lead the army south in person."

Qu Tutong also asked for a fight.

"The old minister asked to lead the army as the vanguard, head south first, and rush to Jiangxia, Ezhou to prevent the rebels from heading north."

"Accurately, the old marshal led 50,000 troops to head south first."

Company commander Fang Wuji requested to lead the troops south.

"Wuji, go to Jiangling, raise food and grass there, and guard Jingzhou."

The emperor stood with his hands behind his back, full of confidence.

"I will personally lead the main force to go south and station in the army in Yuezhou Baling!"

"Your Majesty, Zhang Chao will definitely lead his army to fight for E Yue."

Li Shimin said domineeringly, "I'm afraid he won't come!"

"Fang Qing, you stay in Hanjing."

To the west of Longshan Mountain, upstream of the Wei River.

Qinzhou.

The coalition forces of Cheng Yaojin, Su Dingfang, Pingyang, Qingluan and Murong Fuyun swept across Qinghai and Hexi, and had already captured the entire Longyou area.

The army reached the foot of Longshan Mountain, and Dazhen Pass was ahead.

If you can break the barrier, you can drive directly to the barrier.

The five families now have 120,000 coalition forces, which is considered to be strong.

In addition to the troops stationed in three states, 80,000 troops have been gathered inside and outside Qinzhou City.

In name, Princess Pingyang was the head coach.

Pingyang is now appointed as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council and the Marshal of the Guanlong Front Army by Cheng Qian, and he also commands an army himself. Cheng Yaojin and Su Dingfang each unified the army, and also served as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council and the deputy commander of the Guanlong Front Army. Qingluan and Murong Fuyun were each awarded the title of deputy commander.

"The urgent letter from King Zhao was sent by King Zhao unexpectedly, Li Ji attacked Lingnan. Now King Zhao is going to lead his troops to compete for Hunan. King Zhao asked us to send troops to Hanzhong to cooperate with the action, restrain some of the imperial forces, and reduce their pressure."

Princess Pingyang handed Zhang Chao's letter to everyone to circulate.

Murong Fuyun said, "Aren't we already planning to attack Guanzhong? Why are we changing our minds temporarily now?" Although Murong Fuyun was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, he still had many followers around him. In addition, the Qiang and Di tribes in various parts of Qinghai were also loyal to him. This time he came back, there were tens of thousands of people, and he still had some weight in his speech.

Su Dingfang thought about it.

"Li Ji's attack on Lingnan is indeed caught off guard, and the teacher's plan is timely remedy. Hunan must be seized, but the court will definitely not give up easily. This is also an opportunity for them. I guess Hanjing will do his best to rescue Hunan, which may turn into a battle and a decisive battle."

Cheng Yaojin stroked his beard.

"So, Wen Yuan really needs our support urgently. Damn, don't talk anymore. Let's fight Hanzhong. Maybe we have the opportunity to take advantage of the emperor's south to Hunan and directly capture his retreat and conquer Xiangyang and Hanjing. If this is the case, it will be wonderful."

Ping Yang said, "Since Wen Yuan has made this deployment arrangement, I think we must cooperate with them. Even if this is a decisive battle, it will be just right. One battle will determine the world and avoid delaying it for a long time."

"Do you want to transfer Guo Xiaoke too?"

"No, just let Lao Guo stay in Lanzhou to guard Hexi. We must block the Tiel people from the north from going south. We will resolve the internal conflicts of our Tang Dynasty by ourselves and don't interfere." Cheng Yaojin said.

Qingluan on the side smiled but said nothing. She and Murong Fuyun were both outsiders, but from a strategic perspective, this is indeed true. If Tieler people go south, the matter will become more complicated.

"We have an army of 80,000, and it is not difficult to invade Hanzhong."

From Qinzhou to Chengzhou, you can attack Fengzhou in Hanzhong Road there, and then enter the valley road upstream of the Han River. This is much easier than attacking Longguan, and it is also convenient to march along the way after the past. Follow the Han River all the way to Hanzhong, and then fight to Xiangyang.

Western Liaoning.

Lu Long blocked.

Yuchi Gong led his troops to attack Lu Longsai's city several times, but he was driven down several times.

Both armies suffered heavy casualties.

Qin Qiong and Zhang Tieqiong are already at the end of their strength. They can defend until now, all with one breath. Guancheng was blasted out many gaps, and they were blocked by wooden bags.

But this kind of resistance can't last long.

It only takes three days.

Yuchi Gong can take this pass, and then Qin Qiong, Zhang Tieqin and his son Yuchi Baolin will be captured by him.

"Shoot this letter of surrender into the city."

Yuchi Gong handed over the letter he had just written to his subordinates.

"Master, is it necessary?"

Since the war started, Yuchi Gong sent Qin Qiong a letter of persuasion to surrender every day, and Qin Qiong would reply a letter every time, but he persuaded Yuchi Gong to surrender.

This pair of martial gods of the Tang Dynasty, they fought back and forth, and they were shocking every time they fought, and they were trustworthy and passed on without any mistakes.

So the military supervisors were very dissatisfied.

But Yuchi Gong doesn't care and writes it.

The primary school had no choice but to get the letter and came to Guanxia.

Looking at the tattered but still standing flag, Xiaochao shouted to the city.

"My brothers on the city, Marshal Yuchi has a letter to General Qin."

A head stuck out of the city and then shrank back.

The school tied the letter to an arrow and shot it. After a while, a head poked out from the city and said, "I received it, I'll take it back later."
