Chapter 48 Letter from Jingzhao's Hometown

In fact, he was probably worried in his heart.

Fraternity is a modification of his liking for women, and amorousness can also describe what he does. It seems that his eldest brother, second brother, and fourth brother are attracted to women. If they can succeed, they will always get on the bus first and then pay for the ticket.

There will be no supplementary votes.

Li Zhiyun is different. He and his wife Yang get on the bus first and then pay for the ticket. Yang is a dignified and respectful person. Although she occasionally has a bit of a bad temper, in Li Zhiyun's opinion, it is her cuteness. Therefore, he is in love with her.

Wife's.

Now that their husband and wife are harmonious and complement each other, he doesn't want to see his wife treat Wei Gui coldly.

Fortunately, his wife did not embarrass him.

Li Zhiyun smiled at Wei Gui and sat down next to Yang.

"You are all here today, and I just have something to tell you. You must also know that the imperial court is about to launch troops against Wang Shichong. Luoyang is a fortified city in the world, and I am afraid that it will not be taken down in a short time. I am leaving here, with as few as three

In May, or at most half a year, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to Beijing. From now on, when you live in the mansion, you must support each other and respect the princess."

"Yes." Wei Gui, Huaiyang, and Yin agreed.

Princess Chu had a smile on her face. The reason why she could accept Wei Gui was because her husband would never favor only one person. Her opinion always took precedence in major matters in the palace.

From this, it can be seen that her husband is biased towards her.

"Alang, don't worry, I will take care of the affairs in the house. Now that Lady Gui has also entered the house, with her by her side to help me, everything will be safe."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Li Zhiyun hugged Princess Chu, chatting and laughing with the girls, and recounting their feelings of separation. In the next few days, Li Zhiyun stayed alone all night, covered in rain and dew. Except for Huaiyang, who was pregnant, the other girls all received the favor one after another and became more and more charming.

Among them, Wei Gui has changed the most. She has not tasted the joy of men and women for a long time, but under Li Zhiyun's nourishment, she has become more and more dazzling.

No matter how good the beauty is, Li Zhiyun has to leave Chang'an when he goes to war.

In October of the third year of Wude, Li Yuan issued an edict detailing Wang Shichong's crimes, and ordered Li Shimin to lead an army to conquer Luoyang and restore the eastern capital.

The Tang army had already assembled, and following Li Yuan's order, they left Tongguan in the east and headed for Henan.

The mobilization of soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty could not be hidden from Wang Shichong. After Chang'an's careful work sent the news back to Luoyang, it caused Wang Shichong great panic.

This time the Tang Dynasty used hundreds of thousands of troops, obviously to destroy him, which made him prepare for it.

Immediately, he ordered Wang Xingben to guard Hulao, Wang Tai to guard Qinyang, Wang Shiyun to guard the south city of Luoyang, Wang Shiwei to guard the Baocheng of Luoyang, the prince Wang Xuanying to guard the east city of Luoyang, Wang Xuanshu to guard Hanjia, and Wang Daoyu to guard the north of Luoyang city.

Wang Shichong himself was in charge of the Central Army and personally commanded and dispatched.

Judging from Wang Shichong's layout, he and Li Yuan are actually similar. They both trust and reuse the clan.

But it is a pity that Wang Shichong's background cannot be compared with Li Yuan.

The Li family is from Guanlong, and their children have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and their abilities far exceed those of Wang Shichong.

On October 12, the Tang army entered the border of Henan. Li Shimin stationed troops in Cijian and ordered General Zhai Changsun to lead his army to lure Wang Shichong.

At this time, Wang Shichong's armies from all walks of life gathered one after another. Facing Li Shimin's attack, they naturally had to fight back.

The two sides fought fiercely for two days, from morning to late at night, and lasted for two days and two nights. Wang Shichong knew that he was defeated and retreated to Luoyang.

Based on this, Li Shimin asked the general managers under his command to lead troops to attack the Zheng army's fortified cities in Henan.

On the eighth day of November, Hou Junji returned to Luo, cutting off the connection between Luoyang and the north. Qu Tu broke through Jiuqu and cut off the Zheng army's support routes in the south. Wang Junkuo killed Wang Shichong's general Yan Shuo and forced the Zheng army to defend Jin Yong. History

Danai marched from Taihang, crossed the river via Hanoi, and wiped out the Zheng army's northward division.

In December, the Tang army stationed in Beimang Mountain and surrounded the entire Luoyang.

Although the war was one-sided, the process was not easy and there were twists and turns, and Li Zhiyun was well aware of it.

For example, when Qu Tutong crossed the Gushui to intercept Zheng's army, the King of Qin's support was unfavorable, and Qu Tutong was almost buried early.

Another example is that after the Tang army entered Beimang Mountain, Li Shimin wanted to kill Wang Shichong directly in one go, so he ordered the fine cavalry to form a formation and invited Wang Shichong to fight.

Wang Shichong did not give up and led his troops directly to the meeting. The battle between the two sides lasted for two days and one night. In the end, there were countless injuries. Even Li Shimin's horse was shot to death by the rebels.

It was not until December that the Tang Army's troops successively wiped out the Zheng Army's garrison locations around Luoyang, gradually completing the siege of Luoyang, and Wang Shichong could only retreat to Luoyang.

In Li Zhiyun's memory, the King of Qin conquered Wang Shichong, and the general direction of the war was the same. However, because of his appearance, the Tang army's siege of Luoyang accelerated. Moreover, there was no Dou Jiande who could help Wang Shichong this time.

Tang army camp.

"My father has sent someone to deliver the news. Luo Yi has sent troops to attack Dou Jiande. Now Dou Jiande is pinned down in Hebei and unable to move. Wang Shichong has no reinforcements from outside. The city's defeat is just around the corner." Li Shimin's face was full of excitement.

Although the war process was a bit thrilling, what he played was exciting and heart-pounding.

Fang Xuanling cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, Luoyang City is tall and strong, and it has been repaired and reinforced many times by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. If we attack it by force, we will not be able to capture it for a while. What I mean is that Your Highness can besiege the city without attacking it, and wait for the city to be attacked."

If Zhongliang is defeated, we can attack the city again."

Li Shimin nodded, scanning the generals, and finally landed on Li Zhiyun.

"Zhiyun, what do you think?"

Along the way, Li Zhiyun's army of the King of Chu had not suffered a single defeat, and they were invincible in attacking cities and strongholds, without losing any strength to the troops and horses under his command.

Li Zhiyun thought for a while, nodded and said: "I have no objection to what Fang Canjun said. It's December now, it's very cold, and it's very disadvantageous for soldiers to attack the city. We should cut down all the trees around Luoyang. Firstly, it can be used to make fires, and secondly,

It can also make the army and people of Luoyang hungry and cold. In this way, we can send people to spread rumors in the city, so that it will be destroyed internally. At that time, our army can cooperate with the outside to attack Luoyang."

"What a plan!" Changsun Wuji said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is really good."

Li Shimin nodded, very happy.

Sure enough, the fifth brother is still a human being.

As for Qi King Li Yuanji, Li Shimin really didn't want to see him unless he had to.

Li Yuanji himself said nothing. Since the attack on Luoyang, he had not made any trouble. He did whatever Li Shimin asked him to do. His honesty was surprising.

Immediately, Li Shimin ordered all troops and horses to besiege Luoyang. No one or one horse was allowed to be released, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.

The order was conveyed quickly. After receiving the news, all armies sent people to keep an eye on Luoyang and started cutting down trees.

Li Zhiyun discussed the matter with Li Shimin for a while, and then left the tent.

He thought to himself that without Dou Jiande coming to aid Wang Shichong this time, Li Shimin would not have been able to achieve the feat of "capturing two kings in one battle at Hulao Pass".

Walking on the road, Li Zhiyun asked: "Keming, when do you think Luoyang will be taken?"

"Next spring at the latest." Du Ruhui said: "As soon as our army entered Henan, the counties and counties along the way watched the wind and surrendered. In just a few days, no less than 70% of the people in the Central Plains surrendered. The puppet Zheng now only

Luoyang is the only place left. The food and grass in their city is simply not enough for the army and the people. I guess that the fake Zheng will be defeated by itself."

The Tang army attacked Wang Shichong and won a series of victories. Before they could attack many places, local officials welcomed the king's army and opened the city to accept the surrender.

Successful people feel incredible.

Wei Zheng said at this time: "This is the result of being unpopular. I learned from Zheng Jun's soldiers that now Wang Shichong not only forcibly recruits troops, but also sends troops to rob the people's food. In order to prevent the people from escaping, he also ordered the officials to

Catch those who escaped and take them with their relatives. He has no morals and no popular support. How can the local people support him? Such a defeat is understandable."

"What Xuancheng said makes sense, and I have learned from it," Li Zhiyun said.

Historically, Wang Shichong was defeated so quickly. Many places under his rule did not obey his orders. When the Tang army attacked, they rebelled crazily and countless people surrendered.
