Chapter 180 Silence is better than sound at this time

Chen Ying didn't pay attention to Luoyang City, and he didn't care how the Zheng army in Luoyang City reacted, if they dared to attack, Chen Ying didn't mind giving Zheng Jun a little color. This is not because Chen Ying is blindly confident, but because he has this confidence and strength.

The soldiers and horses under Chen Ying's command slowly advanced along the muddy official road. It didn't seem to be in a posture of attacking Luoyang, Wang Shichong looked at the back of Chen Ying's army in the distance, and breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

"It's so dangerous, we haven't come out of the shadow of defeat yet, once a fierce battle breaks out, the consequences are really unimaginable!" Wang Shiyun said with palpitations: "At this time, what is Chen Ying doing with so many people to the east?" ”

"There's only one possibility!" Wang Shichong said with a sad brow: "Li Shimin must have received the news of the Xia army's westward advance!" ”

Wang Xuanying said indignantly: "It's a pity, if Li Shimin gets this news a few days late, Li Shimin will definitely be caught off guard at that time!" ”

Wang Shichong glanced at Wang Xuanying, really speechless.

Wang Shiyun bowed down and explained to Wang Xuanying: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know, King Xia led two or three hundred thousand elites to the west, and the big country camped for dozens of miles, and the momentum was earth-shattering. ”

Wang Xuanying suddenly realized: "I see, I am alone!" ”

"Teachable fart!" Wang Shichong said impatiently: "I don't know where you have read all the books of such a year, have you read them all to dogs?" ”

Wang Xuanying said aggrievedly: "Father, the son is the prince of Da Zheng State, you save some face for the son!" ”

"Face, do you still know face?" Hearing this, Wang Shichong was angry. Wang Shi was so angry that he scolded: "The raw pig is also better than you......"

As soon as the words came out, Wang Shichong realized that he was scolding Wang Xuanying now, and he also scolded himself.

Wang Shiyun said: "Your Majesty, this is not an opportunity!" ”

"Oh!" Wang Shichong was interrupted by Wang Shiyun like this, and immediately ignored Wang Xuanying. Wang Shichong looked at Wang Shiyun and said, "What chance?" ”

"Facts have long proved that Li Shimin's children are not worried, in the Tang camp, the only person to worry about is Chen Ying Xiao'er, and now Chen Ying'er is definitely going to the Revolving Gate Pass, or the Tiger Prison Pass to stop the Xia army!" Wang Shiyun smiled leisurely: "Now, Li Shimin's children only have tens of thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled left, what else can he use to fight us?" ”

When Wang Shichong heard this, he was overjoyed: "Go back to the palace, let's discuss the righteousness ......"

Just when Wang Shichong and Wang Shiyun and others were discussing how to deal with Li Shimin, Chen Ying led the forward troops to march mightily. As soon as he left the Luoyang boundary, Chen Ying entered the four-wheeled carriage.

Since coming to Longmen to rescue Li Shimin, Chen Ying has been fighting continuously for the past few days, and he is really tired. With a soft pillow and a fox fur, Chen Ying soon fell asleep.

I don't know how long Chen Ying slept, Chen Ying was suddenly awakened by a burst of heart-rending crying, Chen Ying quickly got up, lifted the car curtain, and asked outside the car, "What's going on ahead?" ”

Ashina Simo rode his horse and galloped, he turned over and dismounted, and jumped neatly on the carriageway: "Back to the Lord, there is a group of fleeing people in front of him. ”

Chen Ying stepped out of the carriage and saw a large number of ordinary people supporting the old and the young, dragging their families and running from east to west.

In ancient times, refugees were an early warning sign of an enemy attack, and refugees could always be one step ahead of the enemy army to rush into their own defenses. Chen Ying frowned and said, "Where is it now?" ”

Ashina Simo stretched out his hand and pointed to the east and said, "This place is still thirty miles away from Yanshi?" ”

Chen Ying was slightly stunned and said, "Dou Jiande's army came so fast? ”

Looking at these ordinary people, they must have been frightened, they all fled for their lives, the children could not find their parents, the mothers could not find their children, the old people were helpless, and the crying all the way shook the sky.

Chen Ying was shocked in his heart: "Could it be that Yanshi has already lost?" ”

Chen Ying hurriedly walked to an old man's house, and Chen Ying bowed his hand and said, "Old man, where did you come from?" ”

The old man saw that Chen Ying was wearing armor and walking under the guard of a soldier like a wolf and a tiger, although this old man had not seen much of the world, but when he saw Chen Ying's appearance, he knew that Chen Ying's identity was not ordinary.

The old man said timidly: "We come from Yanshi to ......."

"What's going on with Yanshi?"

The old man trembled and worked hard for a while, and then he used the Henan dialect to explain the cause and effect clearly, because the Tang Dynasty had twists and turns in this war, especially with the defeat of Li Shimin, the state and county officials surrendered to the rebellion, Yanshi County ordered Fang Xinbo to surrender to the Tang Dynasty on the front foot, and later heard that the Tang Dynasty was defeated, and he was unwilling to be a villain in the Qin and Twilight Chu, so he found a rope and hung himself in the county office.

Due to the death of this county order, the officials and county officials all abandoned their officials and fled, and in a short period of time, Yanshi County became anarchy, and some ruffians and hooligans began to rob the weak and weak, and slowly these bad cases spread rapidly like a plague, forming a chain reaction.

Yanshi City has turned into a sea of fire, dozens of corpses are lying on the streets, women's cries and screams are constantly heard in the streets and alleys, and there are also ruffians and hooligans laughing wildly, many ruffians and hooligans are scurrying around in various houses, searching for belongings, people are constantly being killed, and the entire Yanshi City has become hell.

In order to flee for their lives, the Yanshi people had to flee outside the city.

As soon as Chen Ying heard that this was the case, he immediately ordered: "Ashina Simo, lead the rangers to advance lightly immediately, take control of Yanshi County, and if you encounter resistance and riots, you will be killed." ”

The army under Chen Ying's command was full of guns and awe-inspiring, and when these people saw a large-scale army appear, their crying stopped abruptly, and all the refugees looked at the mighty army in a daze.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, I wondered how good the military discipline of the army would be, but in fact, many times, the army was worse than the bandits. However, they couldn't believe their eyes when they saw that these troops had not committed any crimes.

They flashed to the side of the road in a panic, and hid in the pile of people like an ostrich, and experience told them that officers and soldiers were not much better than bandits, and even more hateful than bandits, and if they were not careful, they would suffer!

Fortunately, as if they had not seen them, the officers and men of this army marched forward in three columns on their own, with their heads held high and their eyes not squinting, only to see the black boots raised and fallen at the same time, and the whole army marched in a strange rhythm, as if marching between two straight ropes.

This kind of silence is reassuring, and when about half of the troops have passed, the common people have become emboldened, and there are many discussions: "Who brought this soldier?" Military discipline is so strict, so many people didn't even say a word, or even look at us! ”

A humane who looked like a scholar: "Liang Guogong of the Tang Dynasty, the champion general Chen!" ”

A man who looked like a squire laughed, "I don't know, do you? They are all the soldiers of the champion general, the champion general General Chen, but he led 4,000 soldiers and horses to cut down tens of thousands of Turks in Lingzhou, and was rewarded by Lord Li. It's all soldiers he trained! ”

"The soldiers of the Li family of the Tang Kingdom?"

"yes?"

"If only every officer and soldier were like them! With a few more units with such strict military discipline, do we still need to suffer so much? ”

"I don't know if they can beat the bandits......"

"Nonsense, if you look at their momentum, you know that it is a tiger and wolf army, where is that rabble who is the opponent of General Chen, don't you see how many people General Chen has?"

Looking at these panicked people, Chen Ying let out a long sigh.

Li Xiuning was not tired of riding, but he really couldn't look at these displaced people, children crying, adults screaming, that miserable look made Li Xiuning's mood very sad.

In desperation, Li Xiuning only had to ride a horse to Chen Ying's carriage and board Chen Ying's four-wheeled carriage.

Chen Ying looked at Li Xiuning and said happily: "Sanniang, are you tired?" Come in and sit. ”

As he spoke, Chen Ying got up and moved out of the way of the position on the soft couch. Li Xiuning looked tired and sat on the soft couch.

Chen hurriedly picked up the kettle and poured Li Xiuning a cup of tea.

Li Xiuning shook his head.

Chen Ying looked at Li Xiuning's appearance and said distressedly: "Sanniang, what's wrong with you?" What's uncomfortable? ”

Li Xiuning said: "I ...... in my heart You say that like these people on the official road, when will their hard life be a head? ”

Chen Ying sighed and said: "The peaks and mountains are like gathering, the waves are like anger, the mountains and rivers are like Tongguan Road, looking at the western capital, hesitating, sad Qin and Han meridians, the palace and thousands of rooms have made soil, Xing, the people are suffering, dying, and the people are suffering......"

"The people are suffering, and the people are suffering!" A blur appeared in Li Xiuning's eyes.

Chen Ying said: "The hard days of the people are coming to an end, and when we finish this battle, they can live a good life!" ”

"Will it?" Li Xiuning felt very tired in her heart.

Chen Yingdao: "It will be, believe me!" ”

Unconsciously, Chen Ying's hand held Li Xiuning's hand tightly. Li Xiuning's body softened, and he gently leaned on Chen Ying's shoulder.

At this point, silence is better than sound.

……

Xiangzhou Lin Shan is connected to Taihang in the south and Hengyue in the north. At this time, on a small peak in Lin Shu Mountain, thick smoke billowed and the sound of killing shook the sky.

A Da Yan of the Datang River North Road Xingtai Shangshu hung weakly on the flagpole.

The Tang soldiers fell on the hillside, their blood staining the rocks and dirt. Yan Zhao Nan'er's wanton and arrogant laughter came from the bottom of the mountain, and Li Shentong, the king of Yongkang County, looked at the Xia army that was getting closer and closer at the bottom of the mountain with a miserable expression.

In fact, the rulers of the Tang Dynasty did not fail to take into account the variables of Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, after all, his lips are cold, and he knows that Dou Jiande will definitely not sit idly by and watch Wang Shichong be destroyed, otherwise he will also lead to annihilation. The unification of China is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, no matter which emperor it is, no one is willing to divide it unless it is congenitally insufficient.

In order to prevent Dou Jiande of the Xia State from interfering in the strategic action of the Tang Dynasty to attack Wang Shichong, Li Yuan ordered Li Shentong, the king of Yongkang County, to serve as the general of the Right Yiwei and concurrently serve as the pacification ambassador of Shandong Province, and the Tang army in the entire area east of Taihang Mountain was under the control of Li Shentong. In order to resist Dou Jiande, the Tang Dynasty also established Hebei Xingtai after Li Shimin's expedition, and Li Shentong shot for the left servant of Xingtai Shangshu.

However, the difference between Li Shentong's left servant shot and Qu Tutong's left servant shot of the Xingtai Shangshu in Eastern Shaanxi Road is that he does not have a first-hand Xingtai Shangshu Order, which is nominally led by Li Shimin, the Shangshu Commander of Chang'an Shangshu Province, that is to say, Li Shentong is the real number one.

But what is very pitiful is that most of the Tang army under Li Shentong was adapted from the Shandong Righteous Army, both equipment and morale, are far from the Tang Army in Guanzhong, when Dou Jiande's army came to Xiangzhou (Yecheng) City, only three days, Li Shentong's soldiers and horses could not resist. In desperation, Li Shentong had no choice but to lead the remnants to break through.

I ran all the way to Lin Shu Mountain, but the morale of the Xia army was like a rainbow, and they poured up Lin Shu Mountain like a tide, and it was a fire attack, a crossbow arrow, and tens of thousands of soldiers.

In fact, the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, unless it is an elite army, there is no need to fight, just looking at the dense crowd of enemies everywhere under the mountain, I have already been scared to the point that my hands and feet are weak.

Liu Jintang, the general of the Xia Kingdom, who had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes but dark eyes, looked at Li Shentong's Da Shen and said: "Fuck it up, you must capture Li Shentong before Your Majesty arrives." ”

All the Xia soldiers roared one after another, gritting their teeth and climbing upward. As the killing shouts got closer and closer, Li Shentong seemed to be stupid and didn't move.

PS: Today's third watch is over, good night everyone, now Lao Cheng is on the train home, very hard, buy a hard seat, it is estimated that tomorrow's update will be very late, I hope you understand.
