Chapter 215 If you want to kill, you have to scrape the mood
Luo Shixin looked at Chen Ying's four-wheeled carriage from time to time, but it was not Chen Ying who was sitting in the four-wheeled carriage at this time, but Li Xiuning and Cui Yingying.
Cui Yingying left Xingyang and moved with the army. The two-wheeled carriage was bumpy and pale, Luo Shixin looked distressed, so he cheekily borrowed his carriage from Chen Ying. Of course, Chen Ying did not refuse, for the sake of Luo Shixin and Zheng's tearing face, Chen Ying was not afraid, how could he care about a carriage?
What's more, Li Xiuding's moon affair was inconvenient for the cavalry to march, so this carriage became a special car for Cui Yingying's master and servant, Li Xiuning, and He Yue'er.
It is always easier for women to get along with each other, and in just two days, Li Xiuning and Cui Yingying have become close friends who have nothing to say. When the relationship is close, it is convenient to say anything, Li Xiuning pulled Cui Yingying's hand like a close sister and sat on the wheel couch and said: "Our sisters don't have to be so angry in the future, you can call me Sanniang, I call you Qiniang, it's not that my sister likes to talk, there are some things you can figure out......
Cui Yingying still has a strong fear of Li Xiuning, she still thinks about Li Xiuning's fierce appearance in her head, and then thinks that she used to be the master of killing people and not afraid of blood, she inexplicably has another layer of worry in her heart, she didn't dare to disobey her, and said with a pitiful look: "I'm not afraid of my sister's jokes, what about people like General Luo, I won't look at it in front of people, in my heart, my husband, how can I be noble, polite, gentle, you have also seen, the more polite and polite people are, the more unreliable they are......"
Cui Yingying's words also evoked Li Xiuning's sadness. Cui Yingying's words happened to be in her heart, isn't Chai Shao young and rich, with a good background, but he abandoned himself at a critical moment and fled for his life alone, this kind of betrayal is Li Xiuning's eternal relief. At the beginning, without knowing Chen Ying's background, she had actually secretly agreed.
"You really want to be nice to him?" Li Xiuning looked at Cui Yingying with her eyes, wanting to see the truth in her eyes.
I don't know why, Li Xiuning always feels that Cui Yingying is not simple. Although Luo Shixin is good, he can be said to be a good man, but as a woman, although Luo Shixin has a sense of security, he looks good and lacks interest.
Cui Yingying looked at Li Xiuning's gaze and found that her gaze was fierce, at this time, she only dared to follow Li Xiuning's words, and she didn't care about being embarrassed: "My sister is also a woman, and I don't know how fortunate it is for us women to meet people who are willing to pity themselves." can meet Luo Lang, what else can my sister ask for? At this time, I really envy my sister, you are here......"
Li Xiuning looked at Cui Yingying with a playful smile.
……
Xin'an was originally Chen Ying's Henan pacification envoy, and since this place was occupied by Wang Shichong, it was slightly rectified and became Wang Shichong's temporary palace, and it was also the front-line headquarters of the Zheng army. Taking advantage of the encirclement of Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Shunde Yu Cijian, at the same time, Wang Shizhu also transferred troops to Tian Zhan, Yang Qing and others. Wang Shichong did not give Tian Zan a chance to observe the direction of the wind, and directly issued an ultimatum to Tian Zan that if he did not come to Xin'an, he would be the enemy.
Wang Shichong's ultimatum, Tian Zhan, Yang Qing and others did not take it to heart, the key is that Dou Jiande's more than 200,000 soldiers and horses slaughtered to the east of the river and occupied more than 20 counties in the four southern states of Jinzhou, especially the first line of Xiangzhou and Yecheng, which are connected together. The most fatal thing is that he has sent the general Liu Heimin to send troops from Yunzhou, and a discerning person can see at a glance that Liu Heimin is going to outflank him from the north line and attack Hedong from the north and south with Dou Jiande. The Tang Dynasty did not have many troops in Hedong, could it resist the attack of more than 250,000 troops on Dou Jiande's north and south roads?
What's more, Li Shimin and eldest grandson Shunde were surrounded by Wang Shichong in Cijian, Li Yuanji and Qu Tutong were blocked by Wang Renze in Beibi Mountain, Tian Zan was helpless, and Datang really couldn't see any hope of victory in the First World War. The cavalry couldn't stand it anymore, if Li Shimin was eliminated by Wang Shichong, then Wang Shichong would definitely not let him go.
In this way, Tian Zan hurriedly brought his generals Zhang Lishan, Yuan Ximiao, Yang Wenchang and others to Xin'an, accompanied by more than 40,000 soldiers and horses under Tian Zhan, plus more than 10,000 men and horses under Yang Qing, Wang Shichong's soldiers and horses suddenly expanded by more than 50,000 people.
Wang Shichong reused the sons and nephews of the Wang family, such as Tian Zhan, Yang Qing, Zhang Lishan, Yuan Ximing, Yang Wenchang and other generals to be one level lower. Wang Shichong's eyes stared at Liu Jibin, and asked Liu Jibin in a low voice: "Shi Derui still refuses to surrender?" ”
Liu Jibin shook his head slightly, indicating that he could not compete for the time being.
Wang Xingben smacked his lips regretfully and said: "Shi Derui's brain let the donkey kick, and he went to the dark with Li Yuan's old man!" ”
Wang Shiwei, the king of Chu, said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the troops to destroy the old boy Shi Derui!" ”
Wang Shiwei is Wang Shichong's third brother, and his fourth brother Wang Shiyun defeated Qu Tutong under Luoyang City and won countless victories, which once made Wang Shiwei, the third brother, very jealous. They attacked Li Shimin's troops in Cijian for several days in a row, suffering thousands of casualties, but they did not achieve any results. If Wang Shiwei wants to attack Li Shimin's hard walnut alone, Wang Shiwei doesn't dare, but Shi Derui doesn't have many soldiers and horses, and it is a persimmon that is properly turned, who will he pinch if he doesn't pinch him?
In Wang Shichong's palace, Yang Qing, Tian Zan and others all pretended to be deaf and dumb, and the generals watched coldly and watched Wang Shichong's brothers perform.
However, Wang Shichong waved his hand and said: "Don't be in a hurry for the time being, first beat Li Shimin, and then kill Li Yuanji, and Li Yuan's two sons will be cleaned up, and it will not be too late to clean up Shi Derui." ”
Wang Shichong has received the news that Xingyang City has been conquered by Chen Ying, and the 20,000 horses under the command of Dou Jiande's general Liu Jintang have all been destroyed.
This also means that Wang Shichong is not only responsible for the encirclement and annihilation of more than 50,000 men and horses in Li Shimin's headquarters, plus more than 30,000 remnants under Li Yuanji and Qu Tutong, these more than 80,000 remnants of the Tang Army are also a hard walnut, which is not easy to gnaw.
In this case, how could Wang Shichong still be in the mood to attack Derui, he needed all his strength to resist the threat from Chen Ying.
Comparatively speaking, Wang Shiyun, the king of Qi, understood Wang Shichong's worries better, and he said: "Your Majesty, go to Yanshi!" ”
Wang Shichong nodded and said, "That's very good!" ”
Wang Shichong walked up to Wang Shiyun, patted Wang Shiyun on the shoulder and said, "Fourth brother, Luoyang and Yanshi will please you, at this time, our brothers are still reliable!" ”
Hearing this, whether it was Yang Qing or Tian Zhan, their mood suddenly became bad, as if they were as disgusting as swallowing a fly. Tian Zan secretly thought: "You don't believe us, and you save us some face!" ”
Wang Shiyun walked out of the palace, Wang Shichong looked at Wang Shiyun's back, and said: "Immediately build a stone cannon and smash the Tang camp!" ”
Cijian Tang Camp Camp, outside the camp at this time, has built a complete set of defense system, earthen ramparts, moats, horses, deer and guard towers, although simple but very practical.
Often when the soldiers of the Zheng army just crossed the earthen fortress, they will be subjected to the dense rain of arrows shot out of the Tang army camp, and before they rushed to the front of the trench, they have been seriously injured, and when they fill in the trench, they meet the rain of arrows on the arrow tower, in fact, in the past few days of attack, the Zheng army soldiers and even the camp of the Tang army camp, have been shot to the ground morale, have to retreat with hatred.
However, Li Shimin, who repelled the attacks of the Zheng army one after another, was not easy, and as the offensive and defensive battles continued, the Tang army's reserve arrows were also rapidly depleted. Especially seeing the arrival of more than 50,000 troops of Yang Qing and Tian Zhan, Li Shimin's brows furrowed even tighter.
Especially watching the soldiers of the Zheng army surging like a tide, but did not attack immediately, but began to slowly assemble the trebuchet a stone's throw away from the place in front of the camp, and at this time Li Shimin's face was about to wring out water.
In this case, Li Shimin hurriedly discussed countermeasures among the generals.
The eldest grandson Shunde said almost without thinking: "His Royal Highness King Qin, there are three roads in front of us now, the first way is to break through desperately, break through to the east, and join General Chen, with the combat effectiveness of General Chen's elite cavalry, it should not be difficult to break Wang Shichong again!" ”
The old Cheng faction among Li Shimin's henchmen and generals all felt that this method was good, and Hou Junji asked: "But is it easy to break through to the east and join forces with General Chen?" ”
"It's not easy, but it's not impossible." The eldest grandson Shunde smiled bitterly: "This time, General Ben brought more than 30,000 war horses from Chang'an, as well as 5,000 cavalry, and broke through with 5,000 elite cavalry as the lead. All the soldiers and horses brought enough dry food for three days to avoid the strong and break out of their weak brigades. According to my calculations, it should be no problem for our 5,000 elite cavalry to escort His Royal Highness King Qin to join General Chen. This is the least risky approach for us. ”
At this time, Cheng Zhijie, who was originally silent, said: "5,000 cavalry, 30,000 war horses, the baggage and infantry are ...... here."
"They are afraid that most of them will not be able to join forces with General Chen." The eldest grandson Shunde said: "Now our communication with General Chen has been cut off, and we can't get in touch with General Chen directly. I only know that he was guarding the Tiger Prison Pass before, and Dou Jiande's troops did not have a single soldier to break through the Tiger Prison Pass and march westward, His Royal Highness King Qi and General Qu Tu did not understand the situation on our side, so there was no way to respond effectively. So if we choose this path, we have to give up......"
Li Shimin understands that at this time, he really waited for Wang Shichong's trebuchet to blast open the defense line of the battalion, and it is still unknown whether this battalion can hold it, and there are more than 50,000 soldiers in the Cijian battalion, including the light and seriously wounded, and the infantry who do not know how to cavalry, can not keep up with the speed of the breakthrough cavalry, once this breakthrough plan is chosen, it means that almost all the light and serious wounded can only be left to Wang Shichong, and it can only depend on Wang Shichong's mood if he wants to kill or scrape.
