Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

In fact, Li Shan didn't have much confidence in his plan. After all, Yi Nan had followed the Turks to Jingzhao, which was only a hundred miles away from Chang'an.

Li Shan thought that Yi Nan would at least wait for Dubu Khan to make a breakthrough before deciding whether to withdraw his troops, so Li Shan did not hold out much hope.

The reason for all this fuss... Well, it was mainly because Li Shan wanted to trick that bastard Li Jing.

Just because Li Jing went to Lingzhou to grab credit, Jingzhao fell into emptiness, causing Tujue Horseshoe to be only thirty miles away from Chang'an... This was only possible after Li Shan tried his best and paid a huge price to maintain this situation. situation.

Although Li Jing did not know about the changes that had occurred in Jingzhao, Longyou Road, and Guannai Road before sending troops, under the current situation... reinforcements from various places were arriving one after another, and it was difficult for the Turks to do anything. At this time, Li Jing suddenly led thousands of cavalry Appearing behind the enemy's flank...

This is coming as a savior!

This is to take the biggest credit!

How could Li Shan tolerate this? !

No matter what, this matter must be messed up!

That's why Li Shancai tried his best to persuade Yi Nan to retreat as soon as possible... As long as Xue Yantuo's army withdraws, the rest will be Turks. If you, Li Jing, have the ability, go and take credit from Li Shimin!

Li Shan didn't even expect that Yi Nan would immediately give up after his flirtatious actions... For Yi Nan, Turk and Ashina were the biggest pressures on his mind at the moment.

Even after Li Shan proposed a rough plan, Yi Nan actually took the initiative to fill in the details and gave many practical and effective suggestions... At the same time, Su Xu, a counselor from Jingzhao, also gave Xue Yantuo's retreat route based on the terrain. ...Don't run into Li Jing!

Seeing that Yi Nan was a little confused, Li Shan simply confessed his thoughts to Yi Nan... I just don't want to see Li Jing make meritorious deeds, so I advise you to get out of here!

Get out of here, even if Li Jing defeats the Turks, the victory belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince!

Yi Nan's mouth twitched, but he had also heard about the grievances between Li Jing and Li Shan. It was said that they almost fell out and got into a fight in Shuozhou.

Well, of course, Li Shan's explanation to Su Xu was... The Tang army was severely weakened this time and had insufficient troops. It had to drive away Tiele first, and then try to encircle and kill the Turks.

It was almost dusk. Li Shan and Yi Nan had finished discussing the details. Su Xu and Ma Zhou on the side occasionally added a few words. Liu Heier over there roasted two more lambs. Wang Junhao even brought a jar of wine from Wugong County. come out.

"Send the guards to Jingyang tonight, and withdraw the troops at dawn tomorrow." Yi Nan stood up and wiped his greasy mouth, "I have to thank King Wei Si this time."

"There's no need to thank each other, it's just a matter of mutual benefit." Li Shan said cheerfully: "Ten years from now, there will be disputes again, and maybe we can meet again then."

"Let's talk before the battle again?"

"Hahaha, how is that possible?!" Li Shan laughed loudly: "The civil war must be won in solitary years, and the attack must be conquered. The weak has repeatedly defeated the strong. The three Turkic Khans were all defeated by solitary hands, and their military achievements were second only to the weak. Prince Yu will not go to the battlefield again."

Yi Nan was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing, and his face was a little gloomy... He was saying that he would be waiting to see his captured self in Chang'an ten years later!

Yi Nan turned around and left, but suddenly he stopped, and a helpless smile appeared on his face, "Actually, if I am talking in front of the battle today, I will retreat, so why use the Jingqi to attack fiercely?"

The most difficult thing for Yi Nan to understand today is this. Since Li Shan wanted to persuade him to withdraw his troops, why did he make such a fuss in the morning?

He lost more than 3,000 cavalry, but Tang Qi also suffered hundreds of losses.

"Brother Yi Nan, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" A slightly weird smile appeared on Li Shan's face, "The truth is, Gu Sheng is afraid that you think Gu is just threatening, and Gu Wang is afraid that he won't believe it."

Yi Nan just felt baffled, but then he thought about it, if Li Huairen had spoken in front of the battle early in the morning and persuaded him to retreat... would he really be able to make up his mind?

But now that he has made up his mind to retreat, 50% is because he is afraid that Li Yaoshi will lead his troops to take the retreat, and the remaining 50% is because of his heartache and the losses in today's battle. The loss of more than 10,000 cavalry in the past four days... Xue Yantuo cannot afford the loss. Ma Zhou asked with great interest: "Huairen, what about the lies?"

Li Shan's tone became gentler, "The lie is...if we can defeat them in one battle, then there is no need to waste words."

"Unfortunately, although the elite cavalry attacked and killed many people, all the way to the Qishui River, Xue Yantuo still did not collapse. Brother Yi Nan called his direct relatives and wanted to fight to the death."

Listening to the undisguised regret in Li Shan's words, Yi Nan gritted his teeth, but he couldn't tell which sentence was the truth and which one was a lie.

Looking at Yi Nan's retreating figure, Li Shan stood by the Weishui River for a long time. Ma Zhou whispered: "Will Yi Nan really withdraw his troops tomorrow?"

"Yes." Li Shan nodded, "There is no need for him to lie, because it is meaningless."

Su Xu nodded in agreement, "Huairen suppressed the rebellion and defeated the enemy several times. Reinforcements from all over the country continued to arrive. It was difficult for the Hu people to fight for a long time. Xue Yantuo just escaped a few days early."

Thinking of this, Su Xu couldn't help but glance at Li Shan. He was not stupid, and his grandfather was Su Wei, a famous former Sui Dynasty official. He had a wide range of contacts. He entered Tiance Mansion early and was very well-informed. He knew very well about the relationship between King Wei Si and Dai Guo. The grievances between the public.

At this time, Li Shan said in a proud tone: "I don't know where Pharmacist Li is at this time..."

At least today, Li Jing has not appeared in Jingzhou, otherwise Yi Nan and Li Shan would not be sitting here, talking about retreating the troops, tricking the Turks, and finally talking about the canonization of the khan and the details of the alliance between the two parties.

And after dawn tomorrow, Xue Yantuo will withdraw his troops, heading northwest from Qizhou, taking the Longyou Road from Longzhou back to the grassland... And if Li Jing has already gone south and wants to send troops, he must go through Jingzhou, and it is impossible to go through the many passes. In the southwest of Wonju, you can't leave even if you want to. You can't lead a war horse to climb mountains and ridges, right?

In other words, Li Jing is destined to not get much benefit... As for the possible victory in Lingzhou, there is still a crime waiting for him for failing to go south to rescue Jingzhao in time!

Therefore, Li Shan couldn't help but feel a little proud...Li Yaoshi, come on, come on, I make you insist on going against me!

After a pause, Li Shan turned back to look at Su Xu and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will report to His Highness the Crown Prince in detail after the war."

Su Xu couldn't help but grin. He was just thinking about whether to report it to Li Shimin.

At this moment, in the Tang Army's camp outside Baiquan County, Li Jing, the Duke of Dai, was sitting in the first place. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Tomorrow, Zhang Shigui and Wei Yunqi will take the lead in going to battle, going south to Jingzhou and Qizhou to threaten Hu. There is a way out.”

But only Wei Yunqi stood up and responded. The others... not only Zhang Shigui, who was named, but also Hou Hongtao, Feng Li, and Duan Zhixuan, all with Li Shan backgrounds, were staring at Li Jing.

What if we encounter an enemy when we send troops ahead, and you, the general with 7,000 cavalry in hand, stand still and wait for the bloodshed to flow from the front, and both sides are exhausted, and you come back to take advantage?

Li Jing's face turned green, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Tomorrow, the troops will be divided into two groups. Zhang Shigui, Wei Yunqi, Hou Hongtao, and Duan Zhixuan will lead troops down to Qizhou, and a certain person will lead his troops into Binzhou to threaten the enemy's flank."

Zhang Shigui reluctantly agreed, and exchanged glances with Duan Zhixuan and Hou Hongtao... Be careful tomorrow, both sides must send troops at the same time, don't let Li Yaoshi play tricks again.
