Changsun looked at the bamboo slips in his hands, and his brows involuntarily tightened. With the help of the weak light, Changsun Wuji wrapped his coat around his shoulders, scratched the corners of his eyebrows, his expression became solemn involuntarily, and he sighed and said:

"What a trouble!"

"Changsang!" Changsun Wuji shouted softly, and the door was pushed open. A middle-aged man with white beard and hair came in front of Changsun Wuji. Although he had a full head of silver hair, his indifferent eyes and the vicissitudes of life

His face all shows that he is a man with a story!

A middle-aged man named Chang Sang came to the main hall, bowed respectfully to Chang Sun Wuji and said, "Sir!"

"The situation is not right! Chuan Ge Shu Han, Chai Wu, Yan Song, and Zhang Gongjin have entered the government to discuss military affairs. Go quickly!" Changsun Wuji waved helplessly, indicating to Changsang to handle it.

"promise"

While Chang Sang went to call someone, Changsun Wuji came out of the mansion. Looking at the bright moonlight in the sky, he felt depressed. He stroked his beard helplessly. Changsun Wuji took a long breath and looked at him.

Tiredly said: "It's a troubled time! The situation is dangerous!"

In the time of three sticks of incense, Ge Shuhan and four others quickly arrived at Changsun Wuji's mansion. It was already Chou Shi, and most of them had fallen into a deep sleep. When they were woken up by Changsang, they admired Changsun Wuji's dedication and dedication.

Are you complaining to Changsun Wuji that it’s so late in the day? Why are you messing around? Why don’t you let them have a good sleep?

Changsun Wuji looked at the four people who had arrived, ordered his servants to light the lamps, buy some tea, and then asked them to go out and guard. He looked at the four people and said, "Look at this bamboo slip! The situation is very unfavorable!"

The four of them were all suspicious for a while. They passed it around and took a look. Their expressions were involuntarily shocked. What was going on? Everyone's face turned slightly pale and they could not even speak clearly. Brother Shuhan stood up directly.

He stood up and said: "I will gather my troops and go south to destroy this person."

"General Ge Shuhan, don't be impulsive for the time being!" Changsun Wuji repeatedly reassured him, stroking his beard, taking a deep breath, and said after a while: "The battle on the front line is about to begin, and a new round of battle reports have not been sent back. The south is in a hurry and cannot wait.

, the subsequent supply of food and grass has become a big problem again. If the two fronts start a war, the pressure on food and grass will be even greater! And we don’t have extra troops and horses in our hands, what do you generals think?"

"This...!" Everyone looked at each other in confusion. Yan Song squinted his eyes as if he was pretending to sleep. He wanted to find out Changsun Wuji's purpose, so he didn't speak in a hurry. However, Zhang Gongjin on the side said appropriately: "With me,

It is suggested that if reinforcements are sent to Jeolla and Gyeongsang, we will be even more passive. Not to mention the consumption of food and grass, there will not be enough troops and horses. Over time, we will be very passive!"

"Gongjin has a good plan for peace!" The four of them looked at each other and Zhang Gongjin.

"There is a good policy, but it is also a mediocre policy!" Zhang Gongjin looked at the four people with red eyes, shook his head involuntarily, and said solemnly: "Ask the people from the two places to go north and evacuate them all to Zhongqing. General Ge Shuhan will lead all the people in the country

The elites are defending in Zhongqing to hold back the enemy. As long as the lord wins and sends reinforcements back, it is just a matter of time to drive them away. The most important thing is that the food, grass and troops can be maximized!"

The four people looked at each other and looked at Zhang Gongjin. Everyone looked stunned. They looked around with tiger eyes. Changsun Wuji kept rubbing his hands, as if he was considering Zhang Gongjin's strategy. After a while, Changsun Wuji raised his head and looked at everyone and said: "

Do you have any other strategies?"

Everyone did not speak and lowered their heads one after another. Although Zhang Gongjin's strategy was a little expensive, it was practical. They had no reason to refuse. Ge Shuhan frowned and said: "Now we are gathering the troops from the three places, and we will add them along the way."

If we mobilize more than 30,000 people, we can mobilize a total of 60,000 troops. This battle can be fought."

"Well! I'll leave the affairs in the south to General Ge Shuhan for the time being. I'd like to trouble Gong Jin to go to Liaoxi and tell the lord the situation in the country. After all, the situation is tight. In order to prevent accidents, I'd better explain the situation to the king quickly.

To avoid unnecessary problems in the future!" Changsun Wuji took a sip of tea, looked at Zhang Gongjin sitting below, and said with a solemn expression.

"promise!"

Ge Shuhan followed Zhang Gongjin's plan, hundreds of thousands of civilians, soldiers and horses from Jeolla and Gyeongsang, all evacuated to Zhongqing. Han Shizhong's 100,000-strong army south easily attacked the two places, and in January

In the middle of the year, they converged at Zhongqing, and the two armies were in a confrontational situation.

Qi Jiguang's 100,000 troops also arrived in early January, and then marched non-stop northward, together with Han Shizhong's 100,000 troops, a total of 200,000 troops, to threaten Ge Shuhan. At this time, Ge Shuhan's pressure doubled, and he was in danger of collapse at any time.

Liaoxi City

Nurhaci returned the position of alliance leader due to mistakes in the war. Li Shimin is still the alliance leader. There are only 240,000 troops in Liaoxi City. Half of the 70,000 soldiers recovered last time died of serious injuries. At this time, the Hunjiang River

In the alliance, Li Shi's cavalry occupied most of it, with a total of 160,000. Among Nurhaci's 120,000 cavalry, only 50,000 escaped during the battle. Of the remaining 40,000, 30,000 were

Among the remnants of Wanyan Aguda, the one with the smallest casualties this time was Mao Dun. The casualties under his command were almost negligible, with 10,000 horses intact.

Shi Le's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses have been completely explained where they are. They all died in Jicheng. This means that their tribe has only two ways to go, either to submit to other tribes and be gradually assimilated, or to die in the war on the grassland.

Without the protection of the grassland men, these women and children are like lambs to be slaughtered, without the slightest ability to resist.

Li Shimin looked at the battle report in Zhang Gongjin's hand, and the hairs on his brows stood up involuntarily. Han Yi actually crossed the sea to investigate the case and went to the South Island. It is self-evident what this means. Li Shimin will be attacked from both sides, and Han Yi can continuously transport soldiers.

At the halfway point, Li Shimin will be exhausted and will inevitably be defeated.

At this moment, Li Shimin's hands were trembling. He had a premonition that the battle situation had undergone earth-shaking changes at this moment. None of them noticed it. Li Shimin's brain was running rapidly. Only Li Shimin and Zhang Gongjin were left in the entire tent. Li Shimin looked solemn.

, said after a long while: "Zhang Gongjin!"

"Your Majesty is here!" Zhang Gongjin held his hands and said solemnly in a dark tone.

"Take a letter from me and go to Chang'an to tell Han Yi that I am willing to negotiate peace!" Li Shimin said this unwillingly. He had no choice but to do so. The situation was too dangerous. Once these hungry prairie wolves knew,

I was attacked from both sides. The most minor ones were the trees falling down and the hozens scattering. In severe cases, they would even bite me a few times.

After a while, Li Shimin summoned Li Guangbi and other close friends, and after explaining the situation at hand, he quietly transported the plundered materials to the south. Li Shimin planned to stabilize Han Yi first, refuse to defend the Great Wall in Liaodong, and pacify the south first.

, As for the Hunjiang Alliance, they are all wolves in sheep's clothing. Li Shimin is too lazy to care about them and let them fend for themselves.

"Boom, boom, boom...boom, boom, boom...!" On the city wall, countless catapults pulled the triggers one after another and blasted towards the city wall. The entire city wall was shaking non-stop, making people's scalp numb when watching.

Li Shimin organized his troops and looked at the people who were gradually arriving. Li Shimin held the sword in his arms and looked around at the people under the protection of Li Yuanba. He hit Nurhaci, Maodun, Wanyan Agu and the three of them, and said with a cupped hand: "Everyone! Right now in Liaoxi

The city has become an empty city! The Hunjiang Alliance is meaningless! It’s better to disband each!"

"Li Shimin! What do you mean! So many people died in this battle. If you say disbandment, disband! Who do you think we are!" Wanyan Aguda was the first to disagree. Their losses in this battle were too serious. The army

Most of the generals in the army were dead, and most of the troops and horses were lost. Now that Li Shimin wanted to leave, how could he bear it?

"We no longer have the strength to compete with them. In order to express our apology, let's do this! The resources plundered by Shile's troops will be divided equally between the three of you! How about that!" Li Shimin looked at the three of them and said indifferently.

"You...!" Nurhaci was also furious at this moment, staring at Li Shimin. At present, Li Shimin had a total of 160,000 troops. The combined strength of the three of them was no match for Li Shimin, so he could only let Li Shimin leave.

.

There were only three of them left in the empty hall. With three pairs of eyes, you looked at me and I looked at you. After a while, Mao suddenly said: "Now the alliance has been disbanded! Should we go home separately! Or...!"

"Do you think that with Han Yi's hungry wolf nature, they will let us go? According to the rules on the grassland, if the wolf turns back, it will either repay a favor or take revenge. Once we go back, Han Yi will have such a cavalry in his hands.

You’ve seen it too!”

"Going back is a dead end! Not going back is a dead end! Men on the grassland don't have that much courage in the face of death!" Wanyan Agu's brows tightened involuntarily, and he heated the brazier with his hands, his face becoming more serious.

.

"I heard that the Huns have set off on the grassland. They have an army of 400,000. Our three armies add up to a small 100,000. We can still get it if we piece it together. How about joining him? This is our only one.

There's a way to survive!" Mao Dun stroked his beard and looked at the two of them solemnly. Nurhaci was the first to stand up, with a dark face, glaring at the two of them, and said coldly: "Even if I die on the battlefield, I won't.

Take refuge with Temujin and go yourselves! A lone wolf on the grassland will not make friends with a spineless sheep! Huh!"

Nurhachi said these harsh words and walked out of the military tent, leaving only Mao Dun and Wanyan Aguda. At this time, Modun stared at Wanyan Aguda, as if asking him, what do you think?

Wanyan Aguda sighed and said after a long while: "That's all!"

"Okay!" With Wanyan Aguda joining him, he can protect himself wherever he is in Nurhaci.

On mid-January 19th, the Hunjiang Alliance formed by Li Shimin ended, and more than 200,000 troops retreated. Han Qinhu conquered the lost city of Liaoxi three days later, and then divided the army into two groups. Huo Qubing was the main general, Zhao Yun, and Han Ming.

The two served as deputy generals and sent troops to the grasslands to pursue Nurhachi and his companions. Wei Qing led the remaining 400,000 troops to pursue Li Shimin, while Han Qinhu stayed in western Liaoning to stabilize the situation.

On the grassland, there was heavy wind and snow, and there was almost no trace of the enemy in the white sky. Huo Qubing was wearing black armor and a white cloak. He turned over and dismounted, looking at the horse excrement that was gradually covered by the wind and snow, and

There were horse hoof marks around him, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

Breaking a branch at random, Huo Qubing pounded the horse dung, and when he saw that it could still be rubbed in, he squinted his eyes and grinned, took a breath of water vapor, frowned and said: "The enemy is not far away! They are in front! Be ready at any time.

fighting!"

"Drive...drive...drive...!" Zhao Yun rode a war horse, wearing silver armor, and with the white horse Yi Cong under his crotch. It must be said that Zhao Yun's white horse Yi Cong was simply for this wind and snow.

The preparation, the movement of the white horse, and the silver armor made it almost difficult to find their hiding place.

"What's wrong!" Huo Qubing squinted his eyes, looked at Zhao Yun, and said solemnly.

"The enemy has been found! In the Hulun Hills!"

"How many soldiers and horses!"

"More than 10,000 people!"

"Isn't it the main force of the enemy army?" When Huo Qubing heard this, his brows involuntarily tightened. He looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Swallow them! Grab a few tongues! Find out where their lairs are!"

"good!"

"Drive!" Han Ming suddenly urged the war horse, and thousands of soldiers under his command followed Han Ming and chased him out. Huo Qubing sprinkled the wind and snow on his face, patted the wind and snow on his body indifferently, and Ma Chao came behind him.

After Huo Qubing stood behind him, he folded his hands in front of his chest and said solemnly, "Would you like to go and support His Highness the Fourth Prince?"

"No need! The people in the grassland are no match for His Royal Highnesses. Your Majesty is also deliberately training him. As long as His Highnesses don't die, everything else will be fine!" Huo Qubing turned over and looked at the tens of thousands of soldiers braving the wind and snow.

He shouted: "Charge the whole army! Hold the line for His Highness the Fourth Prince!"

"Charge! Kill" Zhao Yun made a move with the silver spear in his hand, and took the lead in leading the charge. The weapon in his hand was waving around like a killing god.

"The enemies of Daishan are catching up!" Leng Geli rode a black horse, waving the sword in his hands, frowning, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and came to Daishan's side.

Daishan's face was stunned, and he looked back at the enemy troops behind him. He squinted his eyes and checked the number of enemy troops. He raised the whip in his hand, turned around and walked away: "Don't waste time! Send them to the designed trap."

If you lure them there, you can kill a few two-legged sheep before leaving, it will be worth it."

Then the two armies started a tug-of-war, with Dai Shan running in front and Zhao Yun chasing behind. Looking at the fleeing enemy troops, Zhao Yun had a gloomy look on his face. He immediately picked up the Zhuge Liannu in his hand and shouted angrily: "Zhuge Liannu"

Crossbow ready!"

"Ha!" Tens of thousands of people took out the Zhuge Liannu in their arms. Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes and shouted angrily: "Shoot!"
Chapter completed!
