As uneasy as Li Ke was Yuchi Gong, who led 30,000 elite soldiers and Wu Wo Zhu.
In the past, marching and fighting were all done with great speed, but this time Yuchi Gong led 30,000 troops to march towards Licheng in a leisurely and mighty manner.
Wu Wo Zhu was so anxious along the way that he urged endlessly, trying to get Yu Chigong to order to speed up the march.
However, Yu Chigong didn't listen to Wu Wo Zhu at all. Wu Zhe also knew in his heart that the Wu family was not popular in the court, not to mention that people like Yu Chigong would not take him seriously.
With Wu Wo Zhu's qualifications, if Wu Meiniang hadn't successfully confused Li Shimin now, it would have been absolutely impossible for him to become Yu Chigong's deputy general.
Along the way, Captain Chi Gong was thinking repeatedly about how to fight the battle after arriving in Licheng.
With the 30,000 elite troops in Chang'an City, it would not be difficult to defeat Licheng.
But Yuchi Gong really didn't want to obey Wu Meiniang's control, and Yuchi Gong had always admired Li Ke very much.
Among the many princes, only Li Ke is the most similar to the original Li Shimin. Both father and son have the appearance of emperors. Li Ke has been mature and mature since he was a child, and he has become mature and steady at a young age, which is deeply loved by Li Shimin.
If Wu Meiniang hadn't charmed the current Li Shimin and inherited the throne in the future, Li Tang's empire might really fall into the hands of Li Ke.
But now the two fathers and sons are working on their own and establishing their own houses. There are two emperors in one Tang Dynasty.
And Yuchi Gong admired both Li Shimin and Li Ke, which made him not know what to do.
Although the marching speed is very slow, Chang'an City is not far away from the journey. In the blink of an eye, the 30,000 troops led by Yuchi Gong and Wu Wozhu arrived under the city wall of Licheng.
Yuchi Gong had long heard that General Li Ke's defensive offensive in Licheng was the best in all dynasties.
Now seeing the walls of Licheng, Yuchi Gong admired the former third prince even more.
Wu Wo Zhu didn't even want to give these soldiers and horses time to rest, he just wanted to beat the war drums immediately, eager to avenge the twenty army sticks immediately.
"General Yuchi, what are you waiting for? Let's attack the city now?" Yuchi Gong didn't even look at Wu Wo Zhu on the horse.
He knew in his heart that the reason why he sent Wu Wo Zhu to come with him was because he was afraid that he would defect before the battle.
"What are you anxious about, General Wu? The soldiers have been working very hard day and night for several days. Let us rest here for three days. After three days, we will go out and issue a challenge to attack the city!"
Yuchi Gong ordered them to rest where they were and set up camp, which made Wu Wo Zhu anxious like an ant on a hot pot.
"Three days? General Yuchi, three days is enough time for the army in Licheng to prepare a defensive offensive. By then, it will be more difficult for us to attack the city."
Yuchi Gong jumped off his horse and said to Wu Wo Zhu without looking back.
"Are you afraid of the army in Li City opposite, or do you look down upon our elite soldiers and generals in Chang'an City, or do you not believe in my general's ability?"
Wu Wozhu glared angrily at Yuchi Gong, who walked to the tent to rest without looking back, thinking that this guy had always given him the impression that he was a reckless man.
He only relied on his strong force value to achieve countless military exploits on the battlefield. Unexpectedly, if this warrior used his brain, he could actually defeat Wu Wo Zhu without saying a word.
The first person in Licheng to receive the news that the army in Chang'an City had arrived under the city wall was Changsun Wuji.
Since he handed over the military power to Li Ke, he has never asked Qin Zaiming about the level of training and the number of new soldiers recruited.
At this time, he did not know how many soldiers and horses there were in Licheng, and whether they could cope with the elite soldiers and generals in Chang'an City.
But for Changsun Wuji, he did not want to go to war with Yuchi Gong.
He believed that the war was pointless and would only bring more pain and harm.
He hopes that the problem can be solved through peaceful negotiations rather than through force.
"Go tell your Majesty the news!" Changsun Wuji ordered.
At this time, Changsun Wuji showed an air of not caring about the matter. For him, Li Ke was the emperor.
It was just out of necessity, and of course he hated the witch in Chang'an City, so no matter who the two of them were, it was a good thing for him to win or lose.
Now that he had handed over the military power to Li Ke, he didn't want to ask about this matter again.
Li Ke had already discussed countermeasures with Qin Zaiming and Quan Wanji that day.
The three people's opinions are very unified: it would be best if they can avoid war; General Yuchi can be persuaded without fighting one soldier at a time.
But if a war must begin, the 30,000 elite soldiers in Chang'an City may not be able to attack the city based on the established defensive offensive.
Three days later, Yuchi Gong kept his promise and issued a letter of war to Li Ke in Licheng.
"General Qin, I leave this battle to you."
Li Ke said, "Just as I agreed with you a few days ago, I believe General Qin will think of the scene between him and your father on the battlefield as long as he sees you."
"General Qin must turn the conflict into a conflict with the witch in Chang'an City, let General Yuchi know that our positions are the same, and let him know that I don't really want to be the emperor."
Qin Zaiming clasped his hands in his fists, frowned slightly and said firmly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that General Yuchi is a man who can distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil."
"He arrived at the city gate three days ago and has never launched an attack. He is giving us time to prepare. I believe he is not willing to actually start a war with us."
The gate of Licheng slowly opened, and the first person to bear the brunt was Qin Zaiming, who was sitting on a tall horse. Behind him were the new soldiers trained by him.
They marched in uniform formation, undaunted by the coming war.
Not only was there no fear or fear on the faces of these recruits, there was even a hint of excitement.
Under the guidance of Qin Zaiming, they were full of anger towards the witches in Chang'an City, and they worshiped their emperor and Qin Zaiming extremely.
Based on this mood, these soldiers were all high-spirited and wanted to rush into the opponent's camp immediately and kill the opponent without leaving a piece of armor behind.
When Yu Chigong saw Qin Zaiming, his eyes were so wide that his eyes were bloodshot, tears were rolling in his eyes, and his lips were trembling and he shouted.
"Zai Ming? Why are you here in the Qin family and still have your blood?"
Qin Zaiming saw Yuchi Gong with tears in his eyes, dismounted from his horse and knelt down in front of Yuchi Gong with a plop.
"General Yuchi, I hope you're okay. Zai Ming was very happy when I heard that you came out of the prison. I never thought that you and I would be able to see each other again in my lifetime!"
