547. Four hundred miles expedited

When Li Zhen heard this, he thought about it and said directly: "General, and you see, this Turkic from west to east, Li Yi is all his own people to fight, and Li Zhen is also the only general who sent his subordinates to shoot south, on the bright side, my Tang Dynasty Northern Xinjiang is full of troops, but it also gives us all the opportunities to break through, if they join forces, the army is hundreds of thousands, and there are famous generals such as Li Yi Wang Junkuo, but it is a lot of trouble."

Since now Li Ying has sent Wang Junkuo to plunder the land, and he himself is in Youzhou, and there are no generals under his command, and our strange army is not yet known, so the last general suggested that we take the Yellow River waterway, bypass the Hedong Road, from Cangzhou to Youzhou, and go straight to the thief's nest."

After Li Zhen finished speaking, all the generals had their eyes lit up and looked at the map.

"Hey, it's true, the Yellow River is just on the way, this line goes directly from here to Cangzhou, bypassing the east side of the river, and going up from Cangzhou to Youzhou." Cheng Chumo, the big bear, patted his head and said.

Several other people glanced at him with disdain, but Zhai Changsun frowned and said, "General, this is a long journey, and it will not be less than a thousand miles to turn around."

Zen Master Yuwen, who had not spoken all the time, also said: "Far away is not afraid, but I don't know how fast this waterway march is?" At the beginning, I once walked with my father on the river and crossed the river, but I walked for a long time."

The big river is the Yangtze River, Li Pojun raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that Zen Master Yuwen could still think of the speed of marching.

Liang Baiwu also echoed: "General, judging from our current marching speed, the speed of the waterway is a little slower than our speed."

Zhai Changsun said again: "And not to mention where to find the ship, I found a building ship that can accommodate 3,000 people, and the speed of that kind of building ship is also very slow."

A few people, you look at me and say a word, in short, the implication is that the route planning to Cangzhou by water is unreliable.

Li Pojun didn't react, looked at Li Zhen, and saw him smiling faintly.

Wei Chi Baolin on the side patted his head, "My good man, if you don't take the waterway, and the army has no horses, you will run to Cangzhou on your legs, and you won't be tired to death."

Li Pojun glanced at this fool, looked at Li Zhen, and said directly: "Jingyang, if you have any ideas, just say it."

Everyone looked at the eldest son of the British Duke again, and I have to say, it is not the son of the British Duke Li Ji, how to not talk about this resourcefulness first, just that calm demeanor is to learn the British Duke's seven-seven-eighty-eight, no wonder Yu Chi Baoqing always said that he will also be a Taoist in the future, because Li Ji has been a Taoist......

Li Zhen also smiled when he heard this, and arched his hand towards Li Pojun, "Since the general didn't say it, then the general said it." When he looked at Li Pojun's appearance, he also guessed Li Pojun's thoughts.

"The building boat is now not found for a while, and it is too ostentatious to find it, this Puzhou is next to the Yellow River, there are many ferries to fish people, we can buy some small boats, the army is reduced to zero, and the boat goes down the river, which is faster." Li Zhen touched the beard that didn't exist under his chin, because this was an action that his son Li Ji often did.

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, "Yes, let's take a small boat, that kind of small boat is fast." Zen Master Yuwen directly echoed the Tao.

Li Pojun smiled slightly, stood up, and the generals also stood in all directions.

I saw Li Pojun smile and said: "I will add that it is the flood season of the Yellow River."

The generals were stunned when they heard this, "General, what is the flood season?" Fang Yiai scratched his head and asked, at this moment, he really felt that he was really the second fool in people's mouths? I didn't even understand what the general was saying.

Li Pojun smiled and said: "It is the period of the year when the river water rises regularly and significantly, the river is full of water, and the water flow is the most turbulent."

Hearing Li Pojun's words, everyone was not a fool, and they were overjoyed.

"General, this is God helping our army." Zhai Liang and the others said happily, as for whether it is true or false, they don't have to doubt it, can what the general said be wrong.

Li Zhen also looked at Li Pojun with a little surprise, he really didn't know this, he just thought that the speed of taking that kind of boat must be accelerated, but he didn't know that with this kind of heavenly help, the river was rising, the water was turbulent, and that kind of boat went down the river, needless to say, that kind of speed.

Li Pojun suddenly looked upright, and shouted: "Liang Baiwu, Yuwen Zen Master."

The faces of the two of them were solemn, and they went out to respond, "The last general".

"You two took 100 people with each of you, and went to the vicinity of the ferry overnight with a lot of money, and bought a boat with the fishermen." Li Pojun said loudly.

So far, there is gold and silver, and the army itself has brought it, how can anyone go out without money, let alone fight.

"The last will be ordered". The two responded when they heard this, and then Li Pojun commanded: "Chen Kang, take 100 gold out, remember that the boat is the survival of the fishermen and boatmen, and you can't force it, and you don't have to spare the gold and silver." The last two sentences are for Liang Baiwu and the others.

The two of them responded, and Zen Master Yuwen said, "General, how much do you need to buy?" There are more than 3,000 people, and there are a lot of small boats like that."

Li Pojun thought about it for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "That kind of boat can seat at most twenty or thirty people, so you must buy no less than 100 boats."

When the two heard this, Fang Yiai smiled and said, "Then I'm afraid that the boat at Puzhou Ferry will be bought out."

All the generals laughed and laughed, and they dispersed, and the two Yuwen Zen masters also went to buy a boat overnight.

Look at Chang'an again, the night is already deep, the huge Chang'an city is silent, only the street has a yawning patrol Wuhou lazily patrolling, the city, although very sleepy, but the city gate guard still tried to stand up straight, because this is Chang'an, this is the national capital, this is the first city in the world.

Da Da Da ~ There were bursts of strange sounds outside the city, which shocked the sleepy city gatekeeper, and stretched out his ears to listen, huh? The sound of horses' hooves? "Alert, there is a situation". The soldier let out a low shout, and the soldiers around him woke up.

Da ~ The sound of horses' hooves came to the city, "Open the city gate quickly, and hurry up for four hundred miles".

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Put down the hanging basket, please show the order flag."

After a while, when they saw the urgent order flag, the soldiers were shocked and "open the city gate quickly".

Seeing the tired post man walking towards the palace without saying much, all the city gate guards were curious and heavy-faced, because they knew that in this case, something bad must be wrong.

After a stick of incense, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, four hundred miles of urgent war report". Wang Jingzhong entered with a fire-painted cylinder and shouted outside the door of Li Shimin's bedroom.

Li Shimin was whispering to his eldest grandson Wujian, and when he heard it, he was startled, and he hurriedly got up in his clothes and "come in."

Li Shimin took the cylinder and opened it, and his face was gloomy when he looked at it.
