The history books say this about Liang Shidu: This official is very vicious. In small cases, rats and dogs steal, and in large cases, whales and tigers devour the territory.
He was entrenched in Shuofang and never regretted it. Once he had the chance, he tried to devour the world. Although Liang Shidu faced Duan Decao and suffered repeated defeats, he was not a mediocre person. After he conquered Lingzhou, he carried out all kinds of attacks in a short period of time. The decision indeed caused chaos in Guanzhong.
The most important thing is that Liang Shidu moved too fast. Liang Jun, Jihu and the cavalry from various tribes used thousands of people to attack Yuanzhou and Huizhou crazily, and the whole place was on fire for a while.
When Li Shan of Longzhou received the news, not only the entire Lingzhou fell, but most of Huizhou and Yuanzhou also fell.
In the valley, Li Shan was too lazy to look at the military report in his hand, and handed it to Hou Chen. He laughed angrily and said: "It is rare for waste to be like this!"
Hou Chen looked at it for a few times and couldn't help but shake his head, "The King of Xiangyi is so frivolous and can be easily lured out by the enemy..."
As long as troops are not sent out hastily, with the strength of Lingzhou Road, more than ten thousand troops, and five or six thousand fine cavalry, even if the Turks invade, as long as they are commanded properly, they can still hold on. After all, the impact of the Tang cavalry can bring a great blow to the Turks. threaten.
After that, Zhechong Mansion from all over the country will mobilize soldiers to form an army to help. At least it will not be a big defeat, and it will not be defeated so quickly!
However, Li Shenfu was hidden in a trap and Duan Decao was defeated in the first battle, which allowed Liang Shidu to attack Lingzhou so easily. Huizhou and Yuanzhou were defeated one by one before they could mobilize their troops to form an army.
"Fortunately, the women and children have been sent away..." Hou Chen suddenly stopped talking and looked up at Li Shan.
The King of Handan had made all kinds of preparations before, and it was really shocking that he could judge the situation so accurately.
"I can't predict the future." Li Shan said angrily: "I thought it would be Turks, but I didn't expect it would be Liang Shidu!"
Wang Junhao coughed twice and said, "Master, be careful what you say. Master, be careful what you say."
The corner of Li Shan's mouth moved. Indeed, such words cannot be said... What if the Turks come in behind Liang Masterdu?
No, Liang Shidu defeated the Tang army and conquered Lingzhou, Huizhou, and Yuanzhou. They would definitely send envoys to Wuyuan County. Maybe the Turks would really come to take advantage of the fire and rob them.
Thinking of this, Li Shan bared his teeth and thought for a moment that there should be no such thing in history. If he was not there in the original time and space, then the person guarding Lingzhou should be Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng... but in this life, he was replaced by the useless Li Shenfu. .
If Master Liang is allowed to gain a foothold in Lingzhou, the situation will not be good, and there may be repeated wars.
But after a while, I thought that it was good news for Li Shimin that Master Liang had made such a fuss and Li Shenfu was defeated so miserably.
The reason why Li Yuan began to cut the wings of the King of Qin was largely because the Turks were defeated last year and are still in civil strife. Without external threats, Li Shimin would be of little use.
However, once an external threat appears, Li Shimin's importance will be highlighted again, not only his personal military command ability and his unparalleled prestige in the Tang army, but more importantly, the power of the Qin king's generals in the army.
Hou Chen asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, shall we withdraw?"
In Hou Chen's view, Lingzhou, Huizhou, and Yuanzhou were all finished, and Suzhou and Longzhou were next. Although Li Shan was the king of the county, after all, he was the Sinong Qing who went out to patrol the place and did not defend the territory. responsibility.
Wang Junhao sneered, "Withdraw?"
"From Shandong to Daizhou and Shuozhou, Langjun never flinched when faced with a battle. When Mayi was appeasement and the Turks disrupted the situation, Langjun was also able to..."
"Cough cough cough cough..." Li Shan broke out into a violent cough. Can you shut up? !
In Liting, Shandong, did you not want to run away?
Wasn't it because he was blocked by enemy troops from the front and rear, so he had to give it a try?
In Mayi, did I have to turn around and strike?
Wasn't it because of that old guy Pei Shiju?
This time, two losers, Li Shenfu and Duan Decao, lost all three states and destroyed tens of thousands of Lingzhou troops. Do you want me to clean up this mess?
Li Shan gritted his teeth and thought in his mind, he had to run away, he had to run away.
If nothing else, if Master Liang really reported the news to Wuyuan County, and then the Turks sent a large army, and suddenly discovered that I, Li Huairen, was in Longzhou... Why don't you risk your life and come over!
According to what Li Yuan told me that day... Tuli Khan used my head, Li Huairen, as a guarantee to gain the hearts of my people.
Pooh!
He is also a good brother who is sworn to Jinlan!
Li Shan was here with his head down and thinking hard, while Wang Junhao, Zhang Zhongjian, Hou Chen and others were just waiting silently.
After a while, Li Shancai gave instructions: "Send personal guards to Renshou Palace to report the news."
Wang Junhao was a little confused. He responded first and then whispered: "Mr. Lang, Renshou Palace is in Qizhou. Your Majesty should have received the military report, right?"
"You idiot!" Li Shan cursed bitterly.
"Ahem." Hou Chen looked at Li Shan's expression, then took Wang Junhao and explained in a low voice: "Your Majesty must have received the military report, and His Highness asked you to send someone to take a look... His Majesty wants to return to Chang'an in advance. "
Only then did Wang Junhao realize it, and he quickly went out to find a smart guard to go to Qizhou... If His Majesty wants to return to Chang'an, then it doesn't matter if we go back to Chang'an.
But if His Majesty did not return to Chang'an, and Lang Jun took us back to Chang'an in a hurry...that would really be unreasonable.
Hou Chen rolled his eyes and suddenly said: "Now that His Majesty is spending the summer in Renshou Palace, there are few troops around to protect him. Maybe His Majesty can go there with all his personal guards?"
Li Shan glanced sideways and nodded slightly. This was quite tactful, but it was also a good idea... We don't necessarily need to sneak back to Chang'an, we can protect His Majesty.
Wang Junhao, who had come back, moved his lips, but did not say a word. He just thought in his heart that with Lang Jun's trouble-making physique, this possibility was unlikely.
In fact, Li Shan is not afraid that the enemy may invade Longzhou. After all, his hundreds of young men are all cavalry, and they can escape if they do not do well. But the problem is that Li Shan does not want his perception in Li Yuan's eyes to change. .
In Li Yuan's view, Li Shan's ability is secondary. The key is to have the courage to do his job... When he was granted the title of County Duke, he had to guard the pastoral side. After that, although he caused countless troubles in Daizhou, he also appealed to Yuan Jun. Zhang, planned to build Guji Town and defeated the Turks three times.
It's not a good idea to run now...no matter where you go.
Of course, Li Yuan should be able to accept running to Renshou Palace... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but cast admiring glances at Hou Chen. This old man also had some discernment.
"Mr. Lang!"
Suddenly, Fan Shiyi's slightly sharp report came from outside, and Li Shan looked stern, "Come in and talk."
Fan Shida stepped inside with a solemn expression, "The report came in the city that Liang Jun broke through Longshan Pass, entered Longzhou via Jingyuan, and attacked Huating County."
"What?!"
Li Shan stood up suddenly and said, "Why don't I feel something is wrong? I forgot about Zhang Wenguan and Huating Ling Zhang Wenxi!"
