Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 664
Tiance Mansion.

Li Shimin, who had just arrived, looked at Ling Jing with a smile, "Huairen's talent is hard to fathom."

In Shandong, Li Shan has tossed so many messy things in Daizhou. There are not only one or two big battles, but in the eyes of the world, he can plan and manage internal affairs, but he is never good at leading soldier.

But this time he personally led the troops to chase and kill the Turks, took the lead, charged with a lance, and broke through the enemy's formation... Speaking out, it is a bit like the style of brave generals such as Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yu Chigong.

There was no one else in the room, they were all confidantes of the King of Qin. Before Ling Jing could speak wryly, Du Ruhui said with a straight face, "Everything in the world, Dongshan Li Huairen, just understands a little."

Fang Xuanling couldn't help bursting into laughter. Among the children of Prince Qin's mansion, apart from Li Kai, his eldest son Fang Yizhi had the closest relationship with Li Shan, so he naturally knew a little bit about this trick.

Li Shimin listened to Fang Xuanling's explanation, and couldn't help laughing out loud, "Huairen's knowledge is mixed, if there are such outstanding people in Lingnan, can they teach such disciples?"

Ling Jing is also speechless, who knows how that guy knows so much... I haven't told you yet, that guy can do divination!

After talking and joking for a while, Ling Jing began to slowly describe the process of this battle from beginning to end, which he only found out after asking his personal guard carefully last night.

Even the king of Qin, Li Shimin, was quite moved by the brutality of the battle. Three thousand solitary troops fought against more than [-] Turks, and they were able to hold on for eight days, which is really not something ordinary people can do.

"Zhang Shigui is indeed talented in his own right." Ling Jing praised, "He went out of the city to fight to the death and hit the Khan Banner directly. Huairen prepared crossbow arrows, but unfortunately he was unlucky...uh...he was lucky!"

Li Shimin's lips trembled. He was a little skeptical at first, but after a special inquiry, Li Keshi even sent a letter from his son Li Kai... Li Shimin confirmed it speechlessly. It was really luck to shoot down the sweat flag.

"Later, Huairen's whole army pursued and pursued him because of blood and courage. Liu Shirang, Zhang Baoxiang, and Su Dingfang led the army, but Huairen didn't actually lead the army." Ling Jing tried his best to eliminate those undue influences for Li Shan, "not to mention... To charge with a spear, the courage of a common man does not have the talent of a general."

After a pause, Ling Jing added, "With Huairen's martial arts skills, it's hard for an ordinary man's courage to accomplish anything."

No way, Ling Jing still doesn't know Li Shan well, that guy is really talented, he may be able to make amazing but effective choices at certain moments, but in general, he is not a qualified general talent.

The current atmosphere in the court is not quite right... Although there are officials impeaching Li Shan for killing and washing the city, more officials are feeling that after King Qin, first there was Li Yaoshi, and then there was Li Huairen, both of whom were in the current world. Famous generals!

If he is really put on the shelf... then it will be fucked, Ling Jing can imagine that if Li Shan knew the current situation in Chang'an, he would probably grow his face and yell at him.

"The courage of an ordinary man, the courage of an ordinary man..." Li Shimin said with a long smile: "I have fallen into the battle several times, but also the courage of an ordinary man!"

Ling Jing's face changed, and Du Ruhui nodded and said: "There is no need to hide, as a general, taking the lead does not necessarily lead to a general, and choosing the right time is the most important thing!"

"In the battle of Hulao, His Highness led several personal guards to act provocatively, and successively weakened the morale of Xia's army by intercepting food and fighting generals." Fang Xuanling gave Ling Jing, Dou Jiande's former subordinate, an apologetic look, but his mouth kept talking , "Wan Huanhu was imprisoned for nearly two months. On that day, from morning to afternoon, the army did not move. It was not until Xia's army loosened its position that it quickly rushed into the battle and won the first battle."

"It can be seen that choosing the right time is the means of a famous general."

Li Shimin agreed: "The Turks were defeated and fled in all directions. Jieli Khan wanted to gather troops to resist. Huairen found out the military situation, sent his own guards, and mobilized reinforcements as a backup."

"Facing thousands of Turks, the first charge made the enemy's formation spread out, making it difficult for the Tang cavalry to resist the subsequent attack, and it was even more difficult for Jieli Khan to calmly gather an army."

"If Huairen stops this battle, not only will it be difficult to break the formation, but it will be even more difficult to win Cangtouhe, and there is even a possibility of defeat."

Li Shimin bent his fingers and tapped his knees lightly, "Riding alone into the battle without hesitation, choosing the right opportunity, Huairen is indeed a general."

Ling Jing closed his eyes in despair, the king of Qin Li Shimin is the number one famous general in the world, even if the ancient and modern famous generals are put together, the ranking of the king of Qin is definitely at the top even if the ranking is not too high. will be...

Well, Ling Jing has nothing to refute, if there is any trouble in the future, Huai Ren can only ask Huairen to take care of it, who made you choose the right time!

After chatting about the battle for a long time, Changsun Wuji, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly sighed: "It's a pity that the King of Handan...if he can take charge of the Daizhou Army, he may be able to assist the king in his affairs."

After the room was quiet for a while, Du Ruhui shook his head and said, "The current situation in the court does not depend on the army."

Li Shimin also nodded in agreement, with a wry smile in his heart. Last year, before Li Shan left Beijing, he had a secret talk and offered advice with the general trend.

But now, the once tyrannical Jieli Khan was chased and killed, losing face, losing troops and generals, and his power was greatly weakened. Next, the Tuli Khan must take action. With the Turkic civil strife, the confrontation between the two countries has stabilized instead.

This made it an extravagant hope for Li Shimin to take control of the military power again. The battle for the heir apparent was more about the comparison between the powers of the court and China than about the general trend between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty.

Regarding this, Li Shimin couldn't laugh or cry, which side is your Li Huairen from?

Before leaving Beijing, he offered advice, and after taking office, he tore everything apart with his own hands.

Regarding this topic, Li Shimin and Ling Jing have discussed it more than once or twice in private. The problem is that although Li Shan has done a good job in Daidi, he is generally dealing with internal affairs. As for this great victory, Li Shan did not provoke it on his own initiative.

Li Shan is also wronged... Can this be my fault?
Why did His Majesty want to appease Yuan Junzhang, Pei Shiju even used shady tricks to stuff my future into Mount Tai!

Who told Yugu She to come to attack Yanmen Pass, but also to kill wantonly outside the pass!
Who made Jieli Khan insist on attacking Guji Town, and still be so ungrateful!
Ling Jing's comment on this is that Huairen is a man who can create waves without wind.

Fang Xuanling glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji opposite him, he knew what the brother-in-law of King Qin was thinking, if Li Shan was in charge of the Daizhou Army and operated in Hedong for several years, it would be deeply rooted.

If it is difficult for the king of Qin to enter the East Palace in the end, or even be killed, at the critical moment, Daxingtai on the Eastern Shaanxi Road and the East on the Eastern Road will clamp down on the north and south, and the army will quickly move south and north, and he can immediately march into Guanzhong and help His Highness take the position.

In fact, Li Shimin secretly discussed with Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui in private that this method should not be used unless it is absolutely necessary, and even if it is necessary, foreign troops are not allowed to enter Beijing.

In other words, so far Li Shimin has not given up his hope of becoming the master of the East Palace through normal political means.

After chatting for a while, Li Shimin suddenly turned his head to look at Fang Xuanling, "Remember that Xuanling's eldest son has a good relationship with Huairen?"

Fang Xuanling was stunned, "It is true."
