Chapter 184 Li Shimin's Crime of Losing Land 【Subscription】

Now Xu Mu does not intend to restore Zhang Xutuo's true identity.

In fact, Lao Zhang did not want to restore his original identity.

Therefore, to the outside world, it is unanimously said that Lao Zhang is a...nobody.

After the establishment of the Whampoa Military Academy in the future, Lao Zhang will be a well-known alumnus of the Whampoa Military Academy.

A golden signboard.

He was originally a veteran, but after studying at the Whampoa Military Academy for three months, he became a late bloomer, able to take charge of his own side, and swept the world...

Xu Mu believes that with this signboard, those generals who will enroll in the future will definitely learn the art of war.

Work hard for Manmin City.

Wang Shiyun and Yun Dingxing didn't want to give Sun Ying a chance to continue acting aggressive, so they simply stopped asking questions.

On the contrary, the old Wagang generals...

All of them opened their eyes wide and looked at Sun Ying in disbelief.

They knew Xu Shiji.

Although there are some tactics, they are not so miraculous.

Within two days, sixteen states were recovered...

In the past, they didn't even dare to think about it.

They caught a key piece of information from Sun Ying's words, Xu Shiji was instructed by him...

As generals, they are also eager to make contributions.

But in this era, we all pay attention to a master.

Even the art of war is the kind of person who needs a family background to learn more subtle and advanced art of war.

And they...

Most of the people started from the grassroots, or nobles whose family fortunes have fallen.

Otherwise, it would not have been reduced to Wagang Village, and it would have become a bandit.

They have never had the opportunity to learn more advanced art of war.

This time, I heard that my old colleague Xu Shiji secretly asked Sun Ying to make up lessons...

So they looked at Sun Ying one by one.

Luo Shixin was the first to bow his hands: "I also ask Lord Yangcheng to give me some advice and teach me the art of war."

Cheng Yaojin, a fool, was unwilling to miss this opportunity, so he said carelessly: "Please teach me a thing or two, Mr. Yangcheng, and I, old Cheng, will surely benefit from it for life."

The same is true for Pei Xingyan, who has always been told by his father that he has no strategy.

This seems to be his shortcoming.

He has always wanted to learn.

This time, when he got the chance, he knelt down directly, wanting to pay homage to the teacher.

When Sun Ying saw this group of Wagang veterans, the corners of her mouth twitched.

He just pretended a few times...

These people actually believed it.

What art of war does he know?
There are two ways to teach them to write a call to action.

However, thinking of the lord's previous explanation in the kit, he pondered for a while, before he said: "It just so happens that I have some income recently, and I am planning to hold an exchange of military techniques. Then I will wait for you at the mansion, to testify and improve each other."

He said it with great humility.

The old Wagang general was very excited.

Nodding again and again.

He said that he must go at that time.

There are very few opportunities to learn the art of war.

No one is willing to teach you the truly brilliant art of war.

Don't you see Li Jing's art of war, only by studying with Han Qinhu can he achieve something.

And if these grassroots groping, it may take more than forty to get some experience.

But he will never become a famous general.

This is doomed to their upper limit.

So they also know this truth.

For a while, Sun Ying became very popular in Luoyang City.

……

While Sun Ying was preparing for the art of war exchange meeting, Zhang Xutuo and Xu Shiji were still working hard to regain lost ground.

On the third day, they finally encountered Tang Jun's support.

For this...

Mai Mengcai has already found out.

After Zhang Xutuo and Xu Shiji heard the news, they waited for work at ease, and the light cavalry were still on the way to attack when they were ambushed.

completely annihilated!

From here, we can see the stupid move made by Changsun Wuji.

Although the light cavalry is highly mobile, it is too easy to be ambushed when they are waiting for work.

With the annihilation of the two elite cavalry, Xu Shiji and Zhang Xutuo hardly encountered any resistance, and continued to frantically regain the lost state city.

On the third day, Zhang Xutuo went to four cities, and Xu Shiji went to three cities!

A total of seven cities fell into the hands of the Yangcheng army again.

On the fourth day, Zhang Xutuo went to five more cities, and Xu Shiji went to four cities.

In terms of the old ways of using soldiers, Xu Shiji and Zhang Xutuo are still far behind.

After all, Xu Shiji was inexperienced.

So far, the Yangcheng army has conquered 32 cities in just four days!

Recovered most of Henan County!
Only the last two cities remained unrecovered.

Mainly because……

In front of these two cities, they finally ran into the main force of the Tang army.

Li Tang's troops controlled the last two states, making Zhang Xutuo and Xu Shiji...

Can't get in.

What Xu Mu expected still happened.

This time forcing the aristocratic family to rebel, after all, they lost two cities.

Xu Mu immediately ordered that Zhang Xutuo and Xu Shiji guard here respectively to prevent Li Shimin's army from attacking.

……

Outside Yiyang City.

Xu Shiji is watching here.

There are many Li Tang defenders in the city. Although the city is small, it is unrealistic to capture it in a short time.

This time, he captured fourteen cities.

And Zhang Xutuo... captured eighteen cities!
He clearly noticed the gap between the two sides in terms of siege efficiency and dispatching troops.

Therefore, there is no situation of arrogance.

"General Zhang is a famous general in the world, but I still have a chance. As long as I follow the lord and study the art of war hard, I will definitely be able to catch up with him!"

The young Xu Shiji became more and more courageous, looking at Yiyang City, he suddenly wanted to win back a city.

Fourteen for him, eighteen for Zhang Xutuo...

There is a gap of four seats.

If he captures Yiyang City, and then captures Xin'an City in the north where Zhang Xutuo is guarding...

If there are two more cities, it won't be too ugly to lose.

So he started to think about Yiyang City.

……

Inside Yiyang city.

Li Shimin is stationing troops here, and there are many aristocratic families following him.

Headed by the five surnames and Qiwang, Cui Zheng stands at the top.

At this time, his face was a little ugly.

Because... Li Shimin promised the post of Henan internal history when he surrendered...

It's gone.

He thought he could control the 36 states in Henan.

But right now... this internal history can only manage two small state cities.

Xin'an City and Yiyang City.

These two prefectural cities are still... because they are the closest to Mianchi, and the army had just dispatched here when they bumped into the Yangcheng army.

Fortunately, they still saved two cities.

Otherwise, the story of dedicating the city this time...

It's really going to be a joke.

Li Shimin's expression was also very ugly at this time, he stared at Changsun Wuji, and said in a deep voice: "I regret not listening to Li Yaoshi's words!"

At that time, Li Jing suggested that he should not send elite Qingqi to support, but should spread out his troops and march to quickly take over the city.

He didn't listen.

Choose to let people rush to the front line first, block the Yangcheng army, and delay the following army.

He wanted to stop the Yangcheng army with a large army in an upright manner.

He thought very simply.

He wants all these cities.

But... because of being too greedy, only two cities have been taken down now.

More importantly...

Li Yuan had just returned his will from Chang'an.

Let him recover the "lost ground" as soon as possible.

Otherwise, he will be punished for the crime of losing his land.

This sudden change caught Li Shimin by surprise.

They can only stare coldly at these families with five surnames and seven surnames.

If they hadn't offered the city, he wouldn't have taken such a big scapegoat.

Good guy, lost 32 state cities at once...

Who can bear such a crime of losing land?
"You say, what should we do now?"

Li Shimin looked at Cui Zheng with a cold tone.

He even had some suspicions that Cui Zheng and the others teamed up with Sun Ying to frame him with 34 states.

If it wasn't for the fact that these aristocratic families had no reason to do so, he would have planned to kill this group of aristocratic families who failed to succeed and failed.

It was all because of them that he fell out of favor in front of his father...

As a result, he now faces the crime of losing his land!

Cui Zheng swallowed, and then... said nothing.

At this time, he was also very confused.

He obviously made a great contribution.

The state city was taken back by Sun Ying because of Li Shimin's incompetence.

If it wasn't for Li Shimin's anger, he even planned to go back directly.

Changsun Wuji looked at his friend and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, the most urgent thing is... to ask General Li for advice."

He could only think of this way.

In this Eastern Expedition, the most talented general in the whole army is none other than Li Jing.

Li Shimin nodded when he heard the words, and hurriedly repaired a book and sent it to Xin'an City.

……

Xin'an City.

It was one of the two cities that were not captured and recovered by the Yangcheng army during the "lost land" incident.

Li Jing was in charge of guarding the city, and it was Zhang Xutuo who guarded the city.

Outside the city, Zhang Xutuo led [-] elite Xiaoguo soldiers to set up camp.

Obviously preparing to fight a protracted war.

Xu Mu's order to him and Xu Shiji was to recover the 34 states, but right now, he was blocked by Li Jing.

"There are [-] defenders in the city, and they are still guarded by Li Jing. I am afraid that Xin'an City will not be able to take it in a short time."

After setting up camp, Zhang Xutuo, who was carrying a bow with a divine arm on his back, took a telescope carried with the army, observed the situation in Xin'an City, and sighed.

The lord once told me that when you meet Li Jing, you must be careful and not to underestimate the enemy.

In fact, so far, Li Jing has not had any battles for fame.

But out of trust in the lord, Zhang Xutuo did not dare to underestimate Li Jing.

In Xin'an City, Li Jing stood on the tower, half-closed his eyes, and looked at the [-] troops stationed outside the city, frowning.

Because he found that...the Yangcheng army outside the city was well-organized and stationed in an even more sophisticated formation.

Without decades of military experience, it is impossible to arrange such a formation.

"Sun Ying's command is really full of talents! First there was Xu Shiji, and now there is this unknown general. I don't know who is in command of the [-] troops in front of me?"

Li Jing sighed softly, he remembered... not long ago, he received a comment from Hebei Dou Jiande on Yangcheng Gongsun Ying.

Whoever wins the Duke of Yangcheng wins the world!
Among other things, the two powerful armies under his command are rare in the world!
Even if it is him, he dare not say that he can win the opponent.

"With such a strong army, if Datang wants to get involved in Henan, it will be as difficult as going to heaven!"

After walking down the tower, Li Jing immediately wrote a letter to Li Shimin, analyzed the current situation, and told Li Shimin...to prepare for a protracted war.
