The soldiers and horses have not yet moved, but the grain and grass go first. While the soldiers from various places in the pass rush to the camp to assemble, state and county officials along the way have begun to recruit young people to transport grain and grass. This time the grain and grass are mobilized, mainly to Guanbei and Hebei. Taiyuan
There is food, grass, armor and equipment all year round, so there is no need to mobilize supplies from Chang'an for support.
Therefore, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji were the first to leave Chang'an and go to Taiyuan. First, because everything in Taiyuan was ready and they were just waiting for King Qin to lead his army to take charge of the overall situation. Second, it was also because Taiyuan was the core of the court crisis.
If Jie Li can be defeated, the rest of Liang Master and Dou Jiande will not have anything to worry about.
After the King of Qin and the King of Qi left the capital, the prince also set off to the north of Guan to deal with the rebel Liang Shidu.
At this time, Li Zhiyun's 80,000 Chu King's army had just been assembled.
For this reason, Li Zhiyun was scolded by Lao Li. He was scolded for not doing his job properly and for neglecting military affairs so much.
Li Zhiyun was too lazy to argue with Lao Li about these false things.
Chu Palace.
"Pregnant?" Li Zhiyun looked at his wife in confusion.
Princess Chu looked shy and could not hide the joy on her face, "Doctor Zhen said it has been more than a month."
Zhen Quan on the side accepted the jade pendant and congratulated King Chu with a smile. He had no choice but to give him too much money. No matter how reserved he was, he couldn't help but compliment him.
Li Zhiyun never expected that the hard work over the past few months would bear fruit so quickly. Is this considered unintentional?
Princess Chu was even more surprised. She was about to give up, but God gave her a surprise at this time.
In fact, judging by their age, both she and Li Zhiyun had plenty of time to slowly communicate with each other, so there was no need to be anxious. However, Princess Chu was naturally a little anxious as the prince's concubines gave birth to children one after another.
Zhen Quan told him some taboos and precautions, and wrote a prescription for anti-fetal medicine, then said goodbye and left.
Li Zhiyun asked someone to grab the medicine, and then helped his wife sit down.
"This is the best news I've heard recently, bar none."
Princess Chu leaned gently on his shoulder, touched her belly with her hand, and said sweetly: "Alang, you must come back safely, I am waiting for you to name the child."
"Don't worry, I will definitely come back and watch the child be born with my own eyes." Li Zhiyun hugged her tightly silently, his tone unquestionable.
After receiving the good news, Li Zhiyun became particularly energetic in handling things.
Three days later, the army set off for Hebei.
Hedong Road, Shuozhou.
In the jungle, a bonfire was burning, and a horse came alone.
The surrounding area is surrounded by elite Turks under martial law.
"You are so nagging, what are you doing like this? Now that Shuozhou has fallen, no one knows about your connection with us."
The man in black robe sat on the stone, his voice was old.
"You don't have to worry about this. I'm here to tell you that Li Shimin and Li Yuanji have led their troops to Taiyuan, and your opponents are here."
"So what?" the burly man said disdainfully: "Whoever comes will die."
The man in black robe sneered, "Whether you take Li Shimin seriously or not is your business. I won't care about it. I only remind you that Li Shimin is difficult to deal with. You'd better be careful. I don't want to collect his body for you."
"Collect the corpses?" The burly man said: "If we die, you won't survive. You will never have the chance to collect our corpses in this life."
"Hmph, I hope you can still be so tough when facing Li Shimin."
After saying that, the man stood up and left.
The burly man stepped on the bonfire and said coldly: "Whoever comes will die!"
In December of the fourth year of Takeori's reign, as the Tang troops took their positions one after another, three battlefields were launched one after another on the northern land.
Hebei Road, Beizhou.
After Li Zhiyun led his army to Hebei, he did not take action immediately. Instead, he gathered the army and advanced. At Wucheng and Liting, he met Dou Jiande in close combat and had a rough fight. Under the leadership of Li Zhiyun, the Tang army won all three battles, forcing Dou Jiande to
Withdrew from Beizhou and retreated to Texas.
After learning the news, Li Zhiyun immediately ordered the three armies to advance to Changhe, Texas.
At this time, the Tang army made no further moves and only built camp defenses every day, as if they had forgotten Dou Jiande's troops.
At this time, Dou Jiande could no longer hold back, and at the end of the year, he ordered his generals Yin Qiu and Shi Zan to lead an army to attack the Tang army.
He had fought with Li Shimin, and as soon as he saw Li Zhiyun building a camp, he knew that Li Zhiyun must be planning to kill him. Dou Jiande still thinks back to Li Shimin's strategy of "strengthening the wall and clearing the field" with horror.
Li Tang's background is too strong. Once Li Zhiyun uses Li Shimin's strategy to deal with him, he will be extremely uncomfortable and even find it difficult to make any progress.
There are two rivers passing by around Changhe County. Li Zhiyun's camp is built close to the water, which has a tendency to fight against the odds. In fact, Li Zhiyun did this on purpose.
"The world says that Li Zhiyun has the style of Li Shimin. He marches and fights in an eclectic way and is extremely steady. But looking at this man building a camp near the water today, we can see that this man is not exaggerated by the world, but in fact he was defeated. As long as our army defeats its vanguard, then the Tang army will definitely
If he panics and chooses a route, then General Shi can send out two groups of soldiers and horses to outflank Li Zhiyun from left to right, and he will definitely be able to capture Li Zhiyun alive!" Yin Qiu swore in his analysis.
Shi Zan nodded and said: "Yes, among Li Yuan's sons, only one, Li Shimin, is pretty good. Li Zhiyun and his like are a bit unworthy of their name. If we can capture Li Zhiyun in this battle, Hebei will definitely return to the king!"
After some analysis, the two of them felt that there was nothing more heroic than a hero in the world.
In the formation of the Tang army, Xie Shufang gently rubbed the long horse pole, the iron mask was white and cold, exuding the spirit of iron and steel.
Wearing light plate armor, he felt extremely relaxed all over, and his arms were able to mobilize his whole body's strength to kill the enemy to a greater extent than before.
Looking through the iron mask, he bit Dou Jiande's army charging ahead.
"General Duan, how about the competition?"
Beside him, Duan Zhixuan tightened his reins and smiled calmly.
"Okay, I want your share of Tang Xiang."
"Dreaming." Xie Shufang rolled his eyes, what a joke, the Tang Xiang share that King Chu gave him made too much money, and he would not give it to anyone else even if he was killed.
"General Duan, let's bet on the jar of white wine His Highness gave you."
Duan Zhixuan raised his eyebrows, "I knew you were thinking about that jar of wine."
"Whether you want to bet or not."
"If you offered the same jackpot, I would definitely bet on it."
"Okay, I'll also bring out a jar of white wine."
"Definitely dead!" Duan Zhixuan picked up Ma Shan and shouted, "Kill!"
"kill!"
Thirty thousand Tang troops followed Duan Zhixuan and charged away.
Xie Shufang on the other side was not willing to lag behind and also led his troops to charge away.
The liquor the King of Chu gave them was not the rice wine on the market, but a specially made high-concentration aromatic wine with a positive taste and great staying power.
He must get a few more heads this time, otherwise if he loses, the wine will be gone.
The two armies rushed to kill each other, and the blood dyed the river red.
In the battle of Changhe, Yin Qiu and Shi Zan were killed, and Dou's 20,000-strong army was wiped out.
When Dou Jiande heard the news, he was silent for a long time, and then ordered the three armies to gather together and retreat to Gonggao, Cangzhou, using Baiqiao as a line to resist the Tang army.
At this time, Li Zhiyun remained motionless, shrinking his troops and horses and continuing to reinforce the camp.
The generals were very puzzled by this.
"Your Highness, Dou Jiande has been defeated in several battles. It shows that he has no strength to fight with our army. Why not take the opportunity to capture Dou Jiande?" Xie Shufang asked puzzledly.
Duan Zhixuan also said: "Your Highness, the last general also believes that we should surround Gonggao and capture Dou Jiande at this time."
Hearing this, Li Zhiyun was silent for a long time, and then said: "Now is not the time."
