The messenger quickly set off. Everyone was expecting reinforcements just as Cuiwei Palace was about to be breached. They were also very tired under the excitement. Li Shanben wanted to find an opportunity to confront Ling Jing with his confession, but the old man had already fallen asleep.
Turning around, he saw that Su Dingfang, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were already asleep. Even Li Shimin's eyelids were fighting. Li Shan had no choice but to give up and walked around the front hall of Cuiwei Hall, feeling the horror of the war and comforting him. Zheng Shanguo, who had already thought about leaving the prince's camp, took a look at Wei Zheng, who was unlucky and speechless.
After leaving Cuiwei Hall, he glanced at Yang Wenqian and Yu Wenying, who were tied up and thrown to the ground. The former had a look of despair, while the latter stared at Li Shan with resentful eyes... When he was about to succeed, he found that everything was in vain, and Even though he had already escaped, he was still captured. This was all thanks to this King Si of Wei.
"You're stupid!" Li Shan reprimanded Hou Hongtao, who was guarding the prisoners, "If you imprison those two people separately, what will happen if they confess?"
After briefly looking around Cuiwei Palace, Li Shan walked straight out. For now, the only direct threat to Renzhi Palace was King Qi, but now there are hundreds of elites brought by Li Shan, and they are well-armed. The Imperial Guards are all jealous... not to mention that King Qi is a loser.
Although there were corpses everywhere, Li Shan was actually in a good mood. He encountered such bad things twice in two years, and he arrived in time to take the greatest benefits into his arms, and none of his familiar friends were killed. This time again They captured Yu Wenbao and Yu Wenying alive in succession, and successfully targeted King Qi.
Liu Heier, who was directing his men to reorganize the defense line, turned his head and saw Li Shan, "Don't worry, Alang, everything has been arranged."
"Well, the troops from Shangfanfu and Ningzhou and Qizhou should be able to match them tomorrow." Li Shan ordered: "The soldiers from Shangfanfu will camp outside the valley, and the troops from Ningzhou and Qizhou will be placed in Fangzhou, Beijing-Zhaojun junction.”
"yes."
"Is Alang controlling the armies?" Wang Junhao on the side asked casually.
"Yes." Li Shan pointed at Wang Junhao, "You are very courageous. Before setting off, I ordered you to be led by Ah Hei. How dare you disobey the order on the battlefield!"
Liu Heier stood there with an expressionless face. Before the attack, he had ordered that the rebels in Phoenix Valley be swept away, but they were not allowed to pursue them without authorization. As a result, after Yang Wenqian was captured, Wang Junhao led more than a hundred cavalry to pursue the rebels without authorization.
But Liu Hei'er was also a smart man, and he pushed the matter directly to Li Shan... Among the personal guards around A Lang, Wang Junhao and Su Dingfang had the same seniority, so Liu Hei'er naturally wouldn't Dispose of it yourself.
"Do you think that if you capture Yu Wenying alive, you will be able to offset your merits and demerits?" Li Shan looked at Wang Junhao with a smile, "Now is the time to employ people, of course Gu will not deal with you..."
When he heard the self-titled "Gu", the smile on Wang Junhao's face disappeared. Regardless of the people around him, he knelt on one knee in front of Li Shan.
The smile on Li Shan's face also disappeared, and he turned to look at Liu Hei'er, "Ah Hei, you are the commander in chief in this battle, and it is up to you to decide how to deal with it afterwards."
"Don't worry about someone. If it's handled appropriately, then that's it. If it's not handled properly, I'll handle it myself. Then I'll handle you and Jun Hao together."
Liu Heier responded and looked at Wang Junhao, who was still kneeling. Both of their eyes were full of distress... A Lang's skills were a bit too treacherous.
"Your Highness."
Li Shan turned around and saw Master Li coming over and said with a smile, "Didn't uncle go to rest?"
Li Keshi has a very slippery temperament and likes to fight with the wind the most. This time he had to fight to the death. However, he is the best at riding and shooting among the generals. There are not many opportunities for direct hand-to-hand combat, and he only suffered some minor injuries. .
"I've been sleeping for almost three hours." Master Li said happily, "If it weren't for Your Highness this time..."
"uncle."
"Okay, okay, if it hadn't been for Huairen this time, I'm afraid it would have been worse." Master Li found a few red bricks and sat down, looking at the bonfire lit in the distance, "I didn't expect the prince to raise his troops at this time, Chang'an side?"
"Well, this matter is a bit strange." Li Shan hesitated for a moment. Middle-level generals like Li Keshi were actually unaware of the current speculation about King Qi and the movements of the prince. They were actually Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Gong. Do not know at all.
After thinking about it, Li Shan still explained: "We set off from Huayuan County this morning. The guards who came here came to report that there was no movement in Chang'an. Princess Pingyang has already controlled the Beiya Imperial Army and is stationed at Zhuque Gate."
"However, after my nephew sent his personal guards into the city to inform Princess Pingyang, he took my aunt and several senior brothers to Zhuangzi."
"Then don't worry." Li Keshi was greatly relieved. In fact, even if the prince rebelled and ascended the throne, considering that his second brother Li Jing, who held the Daizhou Army, he would at most be dismissed from office. He was just afraid that the rebels would wreak havoc in Chang'an.
At this time, seeing Li Keshi and Li Shan talking, several generals who were only slightly injured gradually gathered around. Duan Zhixuan was the first to come, limping and still joking with Qu Silang, followed by It was Hou Junji, Qin Qiong, Zheng Rentai and other generals of Tiance Mansion who all rested immediately after the war and got up after sleeping enough.
Most of the people had had contact with Li Shan. Li Shan first laughed and scolded Duan Zhixuan a few times, and then chatted a few words with Kang Guogong Shi Danai. Zheng Rentai was guarding the right path in the battle of Tiantai Mountain last year. At that time, Li Shan sneaked into Tiantai Mountain through that route, and they had many contacts after that. Qin Qiong even needed Li Shan's surgery to survive. After all, Hou Junji and Li Shan had no contact at all.
Relatively speaking, Hou Junji's status in Tiance Mansion mainly comes from his seniority. He was under Li Shimin's command when he was sixteen years old. At that time, he was still the Duke of Dunhuang. This was the first title Li Shimin received. They are the Duke of Qin, the Duke of Zhao, and the King of Qin.
But Hou Junji himself was fighting in the north and south under Li Shimin, and he did not have the opportunity to stand alone, so he is only a viscount so far... The son of Quanjiao County, in Chang'an where barons and viscounts are not as good as dogs, really have no standing.
But this time, Hou Junji risked his life to protect Ling Jing in the chaos, and Li Shan was also very grateful... He was unwilling to have any contact with him before, mainly because this guy was later involved in a major rebellion.
"I still don't know who Brother Junji and Hong Tao are..."
Hou Junji coughed twice, and Duan Zhixuan on the side chuckled: "Hou Dalang is a generation older than brother Junji."
Hou Hongtao, who has been granted the title of County Duke, is quite proud. Since Hou Shu moved to Sanshui more than a hundred years ago, the Sanshui Hou family has become increasingly powerful, almost becoming a large sect.
"We are no longer one, regardless of seniority. We will treat each other as brothers from now on." Li Shan pointed at Hou Hongtao, "Although brother Junji is just a viscount now, he has generals and talents. In the future, if he makes great contributions, he should be a Duke of the country." day."
Li Shan thought to himself that this should be the last time he would directly lead an army... He had no other ideas. He just hoped that Hou Hongtao, Liu Heier, and Qu Silang could make good friends with the generals of Tiance Mansion, or even integrate into them, and work hard to eliminate the legacy he left behind. Brand, this is good for themselves, Li Shimin, and even themselves.
While Li Shan was still making these small calculations, in Huayuan County, Huaiyang King Li Daoxuan drew his long sword with a vigilant look. Behind him, the palace supervisor Su made a bow and arrows, and twenty people personally assigned by Li Shan The personal guards either raised their shields or raised their crossbows.
Standing opposite were Prince Zhongyun Wang Gui of the East Palace, and Prince Zuo Wei led Wei Ting.
I've been stuck in writing lately and been too busy on the other hand. I've tried my best to keep updated. Sorry, sorry, I used to be able to write more at the company during the day. This summer, the company has changed its address. There is no air conditioning and it's extremely hot. There's really nothing I can do about it.
