Later, after listening to Xue Shou's plan, Duan Zhixuan touched his chin and thought for a while.
"Using food and grass to lure Zhu Can is a good way." Thinking of this, he sighed and said, "But if this happens, the losses of the Yunyang Army will probably increase. Not long ago, I counted the troops and horses, and we fought in succession.
Yunyang's army has lost as many as three thousand."
As he said this, he felt heartbroken.
These are their direct lineage veterans, each of them loyal and capable of fighting.
Xue Shou comforted him: "There is nothing we can do about this. I believe that the king is also well prepared for this. Having said that, if this loss can be used to help the king regain control of the Yunyang Army, it will be worthwhile."
Duan Zhixuan nodded, "This is the only way."
After defeating the Tang army back to Wuguan, Zhu Can also fell into thinking about his life. Should he go south at this time, or should he take the opportunity to capture Wuguan in one fell swoop?
Then I thought about it, what's the point of taking Wuguan?
From the bottom of his heart, he never thought about using Wuguan to attack the pass. He would not do such a thankless thing. More importantly, he had no intention of really fighting with Li Tang.
If he wanted to establish a separatist power, why would he eat up everyone in Nanyang in the first place? Isn't this a slap in the face?
In the same way, although the pass is rich, Li Tang is not easy to mess with. If he really breaks into the pass and is surrounded by Li Tang, he will really die without a burial place.
So, after thinking about it, Zhu Can decided to go south to raid Xiangyang County!
However, at this time, the soldiers came in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, it's not good."
"What happened? The Tang army attacked again?" Zhu Can frowned.
The soldier nodded and said: "Nanyang has been captured, and Li Shuliang is attacking us with his troops."
"It's not over, right!" Zhu Can was furious.
Thief Li is such a coward. He has given up on Nanyang, but this bitch still comes to trouble him. It must be intentional!
"Send the order, let me attack with the whole army and kill Li Shuliang!"
Li Shuliang would not have thought that Lujiang King Li Yuan and he were the same kind of Wolong. When he led his army to attack Zhu Can, he thought that Lujiang King would also lead his army to attack Zhu Can with him. But Lujiang King did not, because Lujiang King
Just defeated.
For the two Wolongs, they seemed to have some misunderstanding about the encirclement. They always felt that one army was in front and the other was behind, and this was considered an encirclement.
But in fact, if the whole Nanyang area is used as the battlefield for the game, if you want to encircle, you must at least agree on a reliable time.
But both of them ignored this.
Not everyone has tacit understanding, and the two Wolongs obviously don't have it.
Therefore, after the attack by Lujiang King Li Yuan failed, Li Shuliang launched the second round of attack without receiving any news. Of course, this was also a battle in which Li Shuliang faced hundreds of thousands of "rabble" with 10,000 soldiers and horses alone.
.
The so-called gourd baby saves grandpa, one after another.
Li Shuliang's 10,000 Tang troops were indeed elite, but they could not withstand Zhu Can's hundreds of thousands of troops who took turns beating them violently.
It is true that Zhu Can had no food and grass, but for a group of beasts who have lost the bottom line of mankind, ten thousand Tang troops may not only carry food and grass, but even the Tang army itself is food and grass.
Beasts caught in madness are difficult to deal with.
Li Shuliang failed in the first battle and had to retreat.
But this time, Zhu Can did not intend to let Li Shuliang go. He finally understood that he would not be able to live in peace if he did not deal with the Tang army.
If that's the case, then kill them!
Pursued and fought fiercely all the way, Li Shuliang lost food and weapons, and finally retreated to Nanyang and waited for reinforcements.
At this time, Uncle Li's self-confidence was finally completely destroyed and he became panicked. He had seen Zhu Canjun cannibalizing people with his own eyes, and he was scared.
For three days in a row, Li Shuliang sent twelve letters asking for help. Not only did he ask Li Yuan of Wuguan to rescue him, he even sent people directly to break through and return to Chang'an to ask for help.
At this time, if you open the letter written by Li Shuliang to Li Yuan, the entire language in it can be summed up as having only one meaning.
Brother, please help me! [Tear your throat]
Li Yuan, who was in Wuguan, naturally received Li Shuliang's letter asking for help immediately, but precisely because of this, he seemed very embarrassed.
Because, when Li Shuliang asked him to send troops to encircle Zhu Can, he failed to attack Zhu Can and was frightened by Zhu Can. Moreover, he wanted to save the Yunyang Army, so he seemed very hesitant about whether to send troops to rescue. Now Li Shuliang is being
Trapped in Nanyang, what should he do?
"Can you save King Changping?" He raised his head and looked at Zheng Yuanxuan in confusion.
Are you telling me this now? Zheng Yuanxuan murmured in his heart: What the hell have you been doing? I asked you to defend Wuguan, and you had to fight. I asked you to fight, and you had to defend. I asked you to ask for help, but you didn't ask for help. What the hell are you?
He was the one sent by the prince to torture me. Are you thinking of me now?
Why didn't you see that Li Yuan was such a trash when you were in the East Palace before?
Zheng Yuanxuan secretly regretted partnering with such a person. It was like an eagle and a sparrow.
"If your Majesty doesn't save him, are you going to sit back and watch as King Changping dies in Nanyang?"
Hearing this, Li Yuan trembled all over, and all of a sudden he was confused.
Sit back and watch King Changping die in battle?
Once the court investigates him afterwards, he will be dead!
The prince would not absolve him of such a crime.
But the question is, if he goes to save King Changping...can he defeat Zhu Can?
Even if Zhu Can is defeated, how much Yunyang's army will be left?
If the Yunyang army was defeated, what would he have to explain to the prince?
One question after another was hitting Li Yuan's head like crazy, giving him a splitting headache.
Seeing Li Yuan's hesitation, Zheng Yuanxuan lamented in his heart. The prince's vision was really bad. How could he let Li Yuan lead the army? If it had been Wei Ting, the situation would never have developed like this.
"Your Majesty, send someone to rescue him. No matter what, Prince Changping must be rescued. You were recommended by His Highness the Crown Prince, so you must take responsibility."
Zheng Yuanxuan knew very well that if King Changping made a mistake, he might not lose his life, but his career would basically be over.
Li Yuan covered his forehead and said, "Yes, if we want to save King Changping, we must save him."
"Come here, please send word to Duan Zhixuan and Xue Shou to see this king!"
Half an hour later.
Duan Zhixuan and Xue Shou were ordered to lead their troops and prepare to go to Nanyang for rescue.
On the way to the military camp, Duan Zhixuan said: "Your strategy is useless."
"Actually, I haven't thought it through yet." Xue Shou said humorously.
"Hahaha." Duan Zhixuan laughed at first, then held it back. He couldn't laugh yet. After all, King Changping was surrounded, so he had to be serious.
But, I really want to laugh and can’t hold it back.
Xue Shou said: "When King Lujiang wanted to encircle him, I was a little surprised. They didn't set a time to attack together, and they attacked rashly and fought alone. What kind of encirclement was it? Later I figured it out. King Lujiang should think that Zhu Can
Knowing that Nanyang was lost, he would definitely rush back to rescue him, so the King of Lujiang attacked Zhu Can unscrupulously."
"But I didn't expect Zhu Can to do the opposite." Duan Zhixuan said: "Not only did he not rush back, but he went all out to deal with King Lujiang's troops. After repelling Queen Lujiang, he could calmly go back and surround King Changping. This
Zhu Can still has some brains."
Xue Shou shook his head, "It's not that Zhu Can has any brains, but that our King Lujiang and King Changping are too arrogant and take things for granted. Zhu Can is not Wang Shichong or Dou Jiande. He is an ogre king. How can he care about a city or a place?"
Gains and losses. Nanyang, for Zhu Can, is dispensable."
After thinking about it carefully, Duan Zhixuan felt that there was no problem.
"What about now, do we want to save King Changping?"
Xue Shou said: "We want to save, but we can't save with all our strength. Whether we can bring the king back depends on whether the general can seize this opportunity."
Duan Zhixuan understood something and nodded, "Don't worry, Li Yuan is too frightened to go there. This time, the two of us have full control. It's not up to us to decide whether to win or lose."
Hearing this, Xue Shou smiled.
"Best greetings, General."
Duan Zhixuan wanted to laugh, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.
Be serious, King Changping is surrounded by enemies now!
