Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 1139 Casualties
The front hall of Cuiwei Hall is now in a mess. The large beds and other objects were used to block the main entrance. Hu stools were rare in this era, and now they can't be found.

In the end, there was no choice but to have people move red bricks, and everyone sat in a circle. Li Yuan insisted on pulling Li Shan to sit on the right side, and Li Shimin on the other side.

As soon as he sat down, Li Shan said with eagerness: "Uncle, this is not for merit."

Li Yuan was dumbfounded at first, and then he was a little dumbfounded, but it is understandable. In terms of merit, Li Shan has almost never stopped in the past few years. It can be said that after the Battle of Hulao in Luoyang in the fourth year of Wude, at least half of the military merits were attributed to Li Shanli. down.

And like this incident, Li Shan did it once last year, and saved him twice... But considering Li Shan's age and title, there is really no way to reward him.

Li Yuan couldn't help shaking his head again and again, "Huai Ren admits that he doesn't want to follow Wang Jian's example, but today is like this, where did the so-called come from?"

"Huiren's general history, are you crazy about reading history?" Chen Shuda couldn't help scolding.

Wang Jian is holding the army of the whole country of the Qin Dynasty. You, Li Huairen, are just idle now, and you have no connection at all... Li Shan is a little wronged. I did say this, but that was before leading the army to go out last year. .

Li Shimin glanced sideways at Li Shan slightly, and asked directly, "How is the situation in Chang'an?"

His Royal Highness King Qin suffered many wounds in this battle. Li Shan saw it when he entered the palace. His left shoulder and right leg had just been bandaged.

"I sent my personal guards to tell Princess Pingyang to sit in Chang'an." Li Shan looked at Li Yuan's face, "Your Majesty, is this arrangement appropriate?"

"Sure." Li Yuan is very satisfied, he will always be most assured of Princess Pingyang... After all, Chai Shao can't suppress his wife, and there is no queen at this point in time.

Li Shimin heaved a sigh of relief. Princess Pingyang may not have any preference in the fight for the heir, but the first goal must be to protect her father, not to mention that Chai Shao and the eldest son are still here.

And Princess Pingyang's authority in the imperial army is not low, and she has Ma Sanbao as her assistant, so she should be able to suppress the situation... Even if the prince raises troops, it is estimated that he may not be able to get out of the imperial city.

Li Yuan didn't ask about the situation in Chang'an anymore, but said bitterly: "The rebel army must be wiped out, and the generals and schools should be captured alive as much as possible."

"Yes." Li Shan replied, thinking in his heart that he said something like punishing the nine clans. Thinking about it, in this era when the aristocratic families are prevalent, the emperor ordered to punish the nine clans. They are all on the list of being punished.

Li Yuan continued: "The soldiers of the Shangfan government are still led by Huairen, and Qian Jiulong, the governor of Jingzhou, Chang Da, the governor of Qizhou, and Li Mengchang, the governor of Longzhou, led the troops to the borders of Fangzhou and Jingzhao. control."

Yang Gongren was thinking in his heart, it seems that His Majesty is going to abolish the Crown Prince, Chang Da and Qian Jiulong are His Majesty's direct descendants, Li Mengchang is King Qin's confidant, plus Pei Ji, Luo Yi, Feng Li, Wei Zheng They were all under house arrest, and the prince had no way to recover.

But he didn't hear an answer after a while, Yang Gongren turned his head and saw a complex expression on Li Shan's face, a little frightened, a little fortunate, his face was distorted.

"Shang... Shang Fan Fubing?"

At the end of the show, Ling Jing, who had been waiting impatiently, finally came on stage, "Your Majesty sent a messenger to summon you, ordering you to restrain the soldiers of the Shangfan government under the command of Duke Ren Liu Hongji and Duke Xiao Zhang Pinggao, and rush to Renzhi Palace to escort..."

Li Shan interrupted in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I haven't seen the messenger summon..."

Li Yuan's complexion changed slightly, and he glanced at Li Shimin on the left, who was calm and said with a smile: "Father, just like last year, when my father issued an edict, Huairen rushed to escort him before he got the edict."

This is a pleasant way of saying it, but if it is said in a harsh way, and some people even make trouble, then it is because they led the cavalry close to the emperor's side, or they have evil intentions.

Last year when the Liang army attacked Longzhou and broke through Jingzhou, Li Shan led his bodyguards to rush to Tiantai Mountain. It can be said that there was a reason for the incident, but this time it is not easy to say... He did not receive the edict and rushed to Li Yuan with his bodyguards Renzhi Palace, what are you trying to do here?
In other words, Li Shan needs a reason to lead his troops to appear in the Palace of Renzhi at a critical time, which is also the focus and difficulty of Li Shan's previous operation.

If there is no clue, even if Li Shan knew the time point of July [-]th, he would lead his bodyguards to Renzhi Palace... There is really no proper reason, and he will become the target of suspicion.

Li Yuan didn't doubt Li Shan's intentions, but asked, "Why did Huairen come here?"

Li Shan laughed, "Your Majesty, I have been galloping since the afternoon, my mouth is dry and my stomach is empty..."

The people present were not stupid, until the Wei Siwang was chasing people away. Li Yuan looked around and ordered Su Zhi, the supervisor in the palace, to take people to build the stove and pot. Renzhi Palace still had some unused food. There is also food in the military camp, but there is no shortage.

Li Shan took this spare time to check on everyone's injuries. Li Yuan's rib was cut. Although it was not deep, it was quite long, and he bled a lot. No wonder he felt stiff when he walked around.

After that, Li Shan checked one after another, and Ling Jing, Chen Shuda, Fang Xuanling and even Cui Xin who had to raise their knives at the last moment were more or less injured.

Among the acquaintances, Chai Shao was the worst. His left foot was bloody. After Li Shan asked, he found out that the rest of the people were injured. ... Li Shan is really a little sorry, thinking that his previous plan must not be leaked, otherwise don't mention what Li Shimin thinks, the third sister will not be able to get around him.

However, most of the people he was familiar with survived, which made Li Shan feel better. Thinking about it, most of the people he was familiar with were in high positions. When the defense did not collapse, they must be protected.

The Beiya Forbidden Army had almost lost all their casualties, but last year Li Shan took away all the old troops in the Forbidden Army, and those he was familiar with were basically in the Lingzhou Army. Only Hou Hongtao, who was born as a personal guard, was still in the Forbidden Army, only slightly injured .

But Qi Laosan, who was temporarily transferred by Li Shan to burn red bricks a month ago, was not so lucky. Not only did he break his arm, but he was also stabbed in the ribs. Li Shan had to immediately ask the guards outside to carry The equipment was brought in, and an emergency operation was performed... I don't know if I can survive it.

Speaking of which, Qi Lao San brought nearly 200 people to follow him from Shandong, and now most of the famous and surnamed have died in battle, some died in Guji Town, and some died in Xiaoguan. More than half of the eight close relatives died.

But generally speaking, it is much better than Tiantai Mountain last year. After all, Li Yuan stupidly left Renshou Palace and rushed back to Chang'an under the instigation of Li Yuanji last year. As a result, Liang Luoren poked his ass to pieces, and the entire queue was broken up. The casualties are natural heavy.
