Chapter 498: For Li Yuan, I have no patience

Early in the morning, the Luoshui mist was thick, and the Luoshui camp, which had been quiet for a night, was noisy, and the soldiers of the Sui army were in high spirits and ready to go, and their eyes were firm, convinced that this army that would never fail and win under the leadership of Emperor Shengwu would achieve a brilliant victory, for this, no one doubted that their Emperor Majesty had never disappointed.

What does it feel like to fail?

This brand-new Xiaoguo army wanted to feel it, but their strength didn't allow it, and they couldn't help it!

However, this brave and warlike iron-blooded hero division had no idea that the god of war and the god of war in their minds, the Holy Martial Emperor, who had always been happy to blackmail, had been deceived early in the morning.

The big tent of the Chinese army was terrifyingly quiet, and Yang Tong, who was dressed in Xuanjia, handed down the letter in his hand and let the generals watch it one by one.

The letter is an eagle letter sent by Yang Shanhui, which is clearly written, which roughly means that Li Shimin built a dam above Luoshui overnight, and now he is taking millions of people from Heluo as hostages by taking the power of Luoshui and forcing the Sui army to let them go, otherwise they will break the embankment and break the net with the Great Sui, and the people downstream will become their martyrs.

The Tang army's safe crossing of the south bank is the first condition, the second condition is to release Zhang Liang, who was imprisoned in the Lu family, as for the other prisoners, they don't want it directly, obviously because they are afraid that Yang Tong will mix sand here, after the end of the battle of Bingzhou that year, Li Tang spent a lot of money to ransom the prisoners, and as a result, Yang Tong gave them more than 100,000 prisoners who were either disabled or lonely old people. Of course, Li Shimin was even more afraid that Yang Tong would mix tens of thousands of Sui troops among the captives, and give him a combination of inside and outside, so he simply didn't want it at all.

And in return, the Tang army withdrew from Hongnong at the expense of withdrawing from Hongnong.

After reading it, the generals almost exploded, this has always been the only one who blackmailed others, no one has ever been able to do this, even if it is finished, who expected Li Shimin to turn over and give Da Sui such a hand.

Although the generals were very angry, none of them dared to speak. At the same time, they are also secretly observing Yang Tong's every move, their emperor is now smiling, but the eyes that are as black as a deep pool are calm and unfathomable, at this time Yang Dong seems to be calm, but Shui Tianji, Yin Mingyue, and Luo Shixin know that Yang Dong is the most dangerous.

Yang Tong was stunned for a long time, and finally sighed: "As the saying goes, it is in the sky that people make things happen, I thought that Li Shimin would not be able to escape, but I didn't expect that the result was still planted in the 'embankment'." ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the atmosphere of slaughter disappeared in an instant.

Luo Shixin said on the side: "Holy Lord, we can swim down by boat and destroy it, and before we act, we will send an eagle letter to notify the downstream counties in advance, so that they can evacuate the people to high places; The construction of the embankment was not long, the amount of water was not much, and even if the Tang army broke the embankment, the damage to the downstream would not be great; In addition, we can pretend to agree to their terms, but secretly let the right servants launch an army and quickly build another levee downstream to intercept the flood upstream. ”

At this moment, the voice of the soldier came from the door: "Qi Sheng, the scout in front has come to report, the enemy has dug down a lot of tree stumps on the riverbed overnight, and threw down many stone bamboo cages, and built hundreds of stone platforms more than ten zhang long......"

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Luo Shixin.

Luo Shixin said indignantly: "These bastards, even thought of this. ”

"Human potential is infinite, and nearly 100,000 lives are at stake, and it is normal for Li Shimin to think that Shitai is blocking ships. As for building another embankment... It's too late..."

"Why is it too late?" Luo Shixin was not convinced.

Yang Tong shook his head: "The most powerful thing about the flood is the first wave of impact that destroyed the withering and decaying, where can the embankment we built in a hurry withstand it?" I also know that the water level accumulated overnight is not enough to threaten Luoyang, but the problem is that the nearly 100,000 Tang troops are not decorations, they now regard the embankment as a life-saving straw, once our army goes to attack, it will inevitably exert 200% combat effectiveness, even if our army wins, it will be a miserable victory, and that's it, the problem is that after the battle, the water level rises sharply, and at this time their embankment, the harm is great. ”

"Can you just let Li Shimin go?" Luo Shixin was very unwilling.

"I'm not willing, but this game is about millions of lives, and I really don't dare to gamble." Yang Tong smiled, but comforted the generals: "Meteorology is the bearing, realm and scene of being a person. A person with a big atmosphere is not obsessed with momentary gains and losses, and does not care about the trade-offs of one thought. Lost here, we can get it back from somewhere else. What's more, we didn't lose, but the results were a little smaller! ”

Yin Mingyue said loudly: "The last general agrees with the decision of the Holy Lord, but the last general is worried that after Li Shimin arrives on the south bank, he will go back on his word and destroy the embankment, resulting in heavy losses for my Great Sui. ”

Yang Tong pondered for a while, then smiled: "I'm not afraid!" I have the means to counter him. ”

"Please make it clear to the Holy Lord."

"Let the right servant shoot and let the Tang army go, and at the same time let him warn Li Shimin that if the Tang army goes back on its word, then I will fight tooth for tooth and eye for eye, and break the water of the Han River embankment in Hanchuan, so that the four counties of Xicheng, Qinghua, Tongchuan, and Fangling will become a Ze country, I want to see who will lose the most in the end."

The Hanshui embankment was built by Li Chun, standing on the Hanshui for many years, its water level and destructive power are by no means comparable to the embankment built in a hurry by Li Shimin, Yang Tong asked Li Chun to repair this embankment, irrigation of the Hanchuan fields is one thing, the main intention is to counteract Li Tang, he is worried that he will not be able to do Li Tang one day, he can use this coercion, never imagined that he could not use the Hanshui embankment, but was blackmailed first, but its existence, but can also make Li Shimin have some concerns, dare not be presumptuous. When Hongnong arrived, the Great Sui was in the upper reaches of many rivers, and in the future, not only was he not afraid of other people's flooding, but he could also use the upstream advantage to threaten Li Tang in the lower reaches of Hanshui, Danshui, and Xishui.

Three years of holy martial arts!

Li Shimin led 90,000 Tang troops across Luoshui, successfully fled south under Li Jiancheng's response, Li Xizhi led 10,000 troops to break off, the 60,000 pursuers of the Sixth Army of the Great Sui were firmly blocked out of the camp, a day later, Emperor Shengwu personally led the first army of 40,000 iron cavalry from the north side to attack, Li Zhizhi's 10,000 troops were killed and wounded and surrendered more than 9,000 people, Li Zhizhi only led hundreds of people to escape, retreated to Zhuyang Pass and Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin joined the division, so far, a confrontation for nearly two months of Hongnong battle ended with thunder and rain.

With Li Shimin's retreat to the south, Li Tang's plan to go east for more than a year also ended in a disastrous defeat. Li Tang's plan to go east was mainly aimed at Wang Shichong's Zheng Guo, and the Wang family did indeed become history in this battle, which seems to have won by Li Tang, but in fact? Li Tang's soldiers marched east to the Central Plains in two ways, and one was the East Route Army with Li Xiaogong as the road, with a number of 80,000, and the whole army was annihilated; The strength of the Western Route Army totaled 150,000 people, under the leadership of Li Shimin, the king of Jin, attacked Xiyang, Hongnong, and Luoyang, according to the established strategy, Li Shimin was successful, but the key was that the Great Sui Dynasty moved south, not only eating away at Li Shimin's results, but also getting rid of tens of thousands of Tang troops, and the Tang army returned only more than 90,000 people, and also caused the second road marshal Li Jiancheng to lose 10,000 people. In the end, the Tang army lost as many as 150,000 or 60,000 troops, as well as countless grains, grasses and money, and of course, the Tang army also harvested the two counties of Xiyang and Nanyang.

As for the biggest winner, it is undoubtedly the Great Sui who sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight in the early stage and attacked rapidly in the later stage, not to mention the territory of the eleven counties of Xingyang, Henan, Hongnong, Xiangcheng, Shuyang, Yingchuan, Jiyin, Dongping, Dongjun, Jibei, and Qi County, and Li Shimin's grain and grass and other military materials that Li Shimin fell in Hongnong and Li Xiaogong fell in Xiangcheng alone, and the intangible income was that the Great Sui successfully gained a foothold in the Central Plains south of the Yellow River through this battle, and will use this as a base to conquer the world.

……

"I almost killed the right servant! The battle of Hongnong, I lost! ”

From Xue Wanbei, when he heard the news that Yang Shanhui almost pulled out his sword and killed himself, Yang Tong broke out in a cold sweat all over his body, and he couldn't dream that he had a bad thought, not only did he make so many 'bad things' overnight. He almost killed his right-hand man, and this discovery also made him know that with his IQ, he was really not suitable to be a strategist! He said with a dejected face: "I feel that I am not the material to lead troops to fight, the reason why I was victorious and unstoppable in the past is not how powerful and witty I am Yang Dong, but that the enemies I encounter are all aliens with muscles in their heads, the enemies are too stupid, and the soldiers are too brave, which leads to my Yang Tong's repeated victories; This set is put in the complex Central Plains type, and once you meet a smart person, it will not work at all. People are self-aware, I feel that even if I can't help everyone, I shouldn't pull everyone's hind legs, and I'll be honest as an emperor in the future, as for the difficult things like fighting, I'll leave it to the right servant, Li Jingshangshu, you experts. ”

This is Yang Tong's sincere words, but the big and small generals who are full of big tents don't believe in this set at all, who is the most capable of fighting, occupying the most territory, and annihilating the most enemies in the Great Sui? Isn't this the emperor who said he couldn't fight! If the emperor who has brought down so many tough enemies will not fight, what kind of thing is he?

One and two stared at the emperor with a melancholy face, feeling that the emperor was showing off his martial arts in another way, and he was talking back.

Speaking of the battle of Hongnong, did the Great Sui lose?

If the big Sui who makes a lot of money loses, then there is no word to win, not to mention that the world has changed overnight, and it is not caused by the emperor's agitation of the law, indeed, Yang Shanhui is almost about to kill himself, but isn't the person still dead? What kind of melancholy is this!!

But when I think of Yang Tong's other identity, everyone seems to understand again, in addition to the emperor, Yang Tong is the biggest poet in the world today.

"Hey, why don't you speak?" After talking for a long time, but without receiving a response or comfort, Yang Tong was unhappy.

"There's no way to talk about this!" Yang Shanhui said what was in everyone's hearts.

Yang Tong was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the appearance of one or two desperately smiling, he immediately knew that these people didn't believe it.

No one believes an emperor who tells the truth, and everyone else will hehe! It is no wonder that people throughout the ages have liked to tell lies, not because everyone is dishonest, but because no one believes the truth.

Well, I'll ignore you.

"The Great War of the Southern Expedition to unify the world has also come to an end! We need to deploy properly, too! Yang Tong packed up his feelings and pointed directly: "Fuji Guogong." ”

"The last general!" Feeling that the emperor was finally normal, Xue Wanjun quickly came out of the ranks.

"You lead the Sixth Army to take charge of the southern defense line of Shangluo and Hongnong, and you must make it difficult for the Tang Army to move an inch, and when you have the opportunity to win, you can make your own decisions."

The Ten Legions of the Great Sui are mobile combat troops, not local defenders, their mission is to fight wherever they need to fight, and to support various battlefields at any time.

"The last general commands."

"General Yao Junsu, your task is to lead the 10,000 defenders of Wuguan to set up a camp outside Zhuyang Pass to prevent the Tang army from entering Hongnong." Needless to say, this gentleman's loyalty and integrity are also quite powerful, in history, he has no food and no aid to stick to Pusaka for nearly 16 months, during which he has been bombarded by countless Li Tang 'famous generals', all kinds of coercion and temptation, but he is loyal to the Great Sui Empire, and will not surrender until death, such a talented and loyal general, Yang Tong has no reason not to entrust him with important tasks!

"The last general commands!" Yao Jun Su awe-inspiring to the order, compared to the Tang army in Zhuyang Pass, 10,000 defenders are indeed very few, but he is not worried, his greatest ability is to defend, and he is fully confident that the Tang army will not be able to advance an inch.

"General Liu Gang, you lead the Tongguan garrison to move to Wuguan and accept the arrangement of the Duke of Teng." After Hongnong County was in hand, Tongguan had become a safe inland pass, and there was no need to garrison heavy troops. Liu Gang is a disciple of Xuanwei, a Chinese person, who is loyal and calm, and the pseudo-Tang Dynasty's foreign military guard is not a famous person, Liu Gang is enough to be qualified for the post of martial arts guard!

"The last general commands!"

Yang Tong thought for a while, stared at Yang Shanhui and Luo Shixin for a moment, and finally came to a conclusion: "Song Guogong! ”

"The minister is here!" Yang Shan will be listed.

"You led the Fifth Army, stationed in Nanyang Jutan, and took over the defense and combat missions north and south from Zuo Tiancheng, and your mission was to fight in coordination with Shubao's Second Army; In addition to the two generals Xie Yingdeng and He Panren, the three generals Huang Junhan, Li Zhengbao, and Xin Fang'er also accompanied you to the south......"

"Obey orders!" Yang Shanhui responded.

Yang Tong nodded: "The Tengguo Guild has created a situation of attacking key problems here, exerting pressure on the Li brothers, dragging these more than 100,000 Tang troops at Zhuyang Pass, buying time for you to go south calmly, you must arrive in Nanyang before Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng, and build a complete defense system." Your enemies are not only Li Tang's Nanyang Army, Li Yuan's Xiangyang Army, and perhaps the Li Brothers' army, so everything is to stabilize the situation first. ”

"Whoa!" Yang Shan will feel his shoulders heavi.

Yang Tong smiled, "Although the pressure of the right servant shooting is heavy, it is also temporary, I have already given Jingde an order to attack, after he arranges the defense of Hanchuan, he will command the Seventh Army to launch an offensive to Xicheng County to ease the pressure in the eastern theater, and of course the Sixth Army of Fuji Guogong will not always stand still, and when the defense is changed here, it will also choose the opportunity to attack." At the same time, Wang Fubao's Ninth Army and Xue Wanche's Tenth Army will not act as spectators! ”

"Holy Lord, are you ready to destroy Tang?" Yang Shanhui's heart was excited, and even his voice trembled a little, and the right servant of the dignified Shangshu shot like this, and the generals were even more excited, and one or two couldn't wait to shout loudly.

"For Li Yuan, I don't have patience anymore, and I don't want to play with these thieves anymore!" Yang Tong said heavily, Yang Tong said lightly about being blackmailed, but in the end he was always angry! The feeling of being blackmailed is uncomfortable, and I don't know how the cheap father-in-law who was blackmailed and even lost his daughter has supported him over the years, and this cultivation really makes Yang Tong admire.

Yang Tong didn't have that kind of self-cultivation, and he didn't want to feel uncomfortable, the only way was to let the victory go to another victory, until all the enemies who didn't want to make him happy were eliminated.

"Great Sui Wansheng! Long live the Great Sui! Long live the Holy Lord......"

When the generals heard Yang Dong's declaration of war, which was not like a declaration of war, they all howled loudly with excitement.
