The moon climbed over the railing, and the north wind became stronger again, as if it was trying its best to exert its last bit of strength.
The group left the former Princess Pingyang's Mansion and headed back to the palace against the north wind... A very fulfilling day was coming to an end.
I visited several elders, and in the evening I was able to sit and drink with my confidante, and talked a lot. Finally...if I didn't bring the red eyes, maybe he would really stay here tonight and not leave.
Being blown by the cold north wind, Li Po's remaining charming thoughts were also blown away. He thought that he had to explain to the queen when he returned to the palace to take some time, otherwise it would be his tail that caught fire in the backyard.
Just when I was thinking about how to deal with the big insects at home, a shadow blocked the moonlight, and Luo Shixin came closer.
Li Po tilted his head and looked over. Luo Shixin hesitated for a while before saying, "Cheng Zhijie couldn't stay at the city gate any longer. He came to my door and said he wanted to enter Qianniu Beishen Mansion, but I didn't agree to him..."
Li Po was amused by him, took a mouthful of wind, and immediately shut his mouth tightly. Not only did he feel that Luo Shixin's simplicity was unique in the world, but he also felt that Cheng Dabeard's shamelessness was unique in the world.
After Cheng Zhijie was released, he served as a city gate captain to guard the city gates of Chang'an City. It was obviously a disguised punishment, and it also made people understand that the emperor did not like to see this old friend very much.
According to the normal rhythm in the officialdom, as long as Li Po did not personally intervene, Cheng Zhijieng would die at the gate of the city and would not be asked to change his place, because whoever dared to change his place would probably have to change his place himself.
But Cheng Dabeard had such an ability that he could crawl out of the pit on his own, so he quickly found Luo Shixin at the door. In addition to being thick-skinned, he was really not afraid of death.
In fact, Luo Shixin's resentment towards him had almost disappeared a long time ago. Zhang Xutuo's death was dictated by the current situation. There were endless bandits in front of him waiting for him to exterminate, and behind him were bright knives handed over by nobles.
stab in the back.
The gangsters hated him to the core, and the nobles felt that he was too sharp and showed that others were too incompetent, so Zhang Xutuo died.
No matter what, Luo Shixin only hated the bandits in Henan and the ministers in the Luoyang court. He felt that there were no good people in Henan. His views were similar to Li Po's, but they were fundamentally different.
Many years have passed, and Luo Shixin has become famous, married, and had children, so he is no longer so angry.
Compared with the living King of Hell who followed Zhang Xutuo to fight in Shandong, Hebei, and Henan in the past, killing people like hemp and being as fierce as a ghost, although today's Luo Shixin is still powerful, his murderous nature has gradually calmed down. Otherwise, where would he be?
Can you be so honest with Li Po?
To put it bluntly, Luo Shixin was the leading general in the battle, but he allowed Li Po to cripple his life and turn a tiger into a cat, and he no longer had the power he once had.
Of course, having said that, this also shows that Luo Shixin did not recognize this brother in vain. In another time and space, he had been loyal to the King of Qin for a long time, but now he is still alive and well. It can only be said that it is important to follow the right person.
"You have a good heart. What did he promise you to make you speak for him? You beat him half to death last time..."
"What can he promise me?" Luo Shixin quickly denied, "I just think that, although that guy is hateful, he always kowtows to me and treats me well... My brother doesn't want to kill him, so why not give him some convenience?
, it can be considered as the end of the friendship back then.”
Li Po nodded obediently, "That guy is very treacherous. You should be careful and don't let him climb on top of you. He might come and beat you up to vent your anger."
Luo Shixin was not afraid of the wind, he opened his big mouth and laughed loudly, and a hundred people said in disbelief: "Brother Xie also thinks highly of him... Even if his official position is higher than mine, he would not dare to come to my door."
Seeking revenge or seeking death?
Besides, as long as my brother is here, how can I let that guy climb on top of me?"
Li Po glanced at him with a smile. Luo Shixin's flattery can still be laughed at. This guy doesn't like to use his brain very much, and his flatterers are always very solid.
"Just watch. Tomorrow he will be transferred to the Bishen Mansion, and the next day he will come to your house to have a drink with you. After drinking, he will call you brother and sister, and then, he will definitely encourage you to come to me again to reminisce about old friendship."
Luo Shixin shook his big head and said in disbelief: "I told him that I don't want to see him again, otherwise he must know how powerful I am. Don't worry, brother, that guy will not dare to come to the door."
Li Po suppressed his laughter and said, "Then how about we make a bet? If he comes to your door to have a drink with you, that means I win, and you don't need to do anything. Then you can just give him a good beating."
Luo Shixin also became interested and immediately said: "What if I win?"
You still want to win like this? Li Po glanced at him sideways and said, "Why do you still want to beat me up?"
Luo Shixin rubbed his big hands. They were probably itchy, but he didn't dare to hit Li Po. "My brother is already an emperor, so he can't cheat. He has to have some luck."
The emperor should not be too stingy when making a bet, "Your baby is over two years old, right? If you win, I will marry my daughter to him as my mother-in-law in the future. What do you think?"
Luo Shixin was overjoyed, "Brother, we have made an agreement. If you regret it in the future, I will not agree."
After saying that, she actually bowed to Ashina Rong and held her hands together. Apparently she was afraid that her sister-in-law would stop her, and she was still thinking that it would be great if she could have another daughter, who would be given to Li Yuan as a mother-in-law, so that she could kiss her.
Over there, Li Po placed a big bet and was a little worried, "Don't you dare to conspire with Cheng Zhijie just to win over me? If you do that, you will be committing the crime of deceiving the emperor. You, the Commander-in-Chief of the Personal Guard,
There’s no need to be a pawn and go look at the city gate with Cheng Zhijie, who happens to be your old business in Mayi."
Luo Shixin was very dissatisfied after hearing this, and he beat his chest loudly, "Brother, who do you think I am? What I say is worth more than gold."
Talking to Luo Shixin was actually very interesting, and digging a hole for Cheng Dabeard made it even more interesting. While talking and laughing, the group entered the Chengtian Gate, and the palace gate was closed behind them again.
………………………………
On the eighth day of February in the second year of Yuanzhen of the Tang Dynasty, another good news came from Shuzhong.
In the twelfth lunar month, as soon as the weather improved slightly, Zhang Lun led his army to attack Yizhou. He first defeated Mianzhu and then surrounded Deyang. Wang Weijun, the governor of Hanzhou, surrendered the city. The army was like a broken bamboo. Within a few days, Hanzhou was occupied.
Seeing that the enemy army had reached the hinterland of Yizhou, Li Xiaogong no longer hesitated and left Chu King Li Zhiyun to guard Jinguan City. He mobilized tens of thousands of elite soldiers and used huge profits to lure tens of thousands of barbarians down the mountain, claiming that one hundred thousand people were stationed at Tuoshui River.
On the side, I want to fight Zhang Lun decisively.
At this time, Liu Hongji, who was stationed in Tongzhou, also saw the opportunity and raised his troops to the west.
After falling out with Li Xiaogong, Liu Hongji returned to Tongzhou to prepare for war, and sent letters to his friends, telling them about Li Xiaogong's treachery, and urging everyone to join him in leading troops to Yizhou to kill Li Xiaogong.
Especially for Chai Shao, Liu Hongji even said that he would serve as his leader. He did not ask Chai Shao to send troops to help, but only asked Chai Shao not to steal his retreat when he attacked Yizhou.
There was not much excitement in the Battle of Tuoshui. In order to prevent the enemy from going deep into the hinterland of Yizhou and give the enemy every opportunity to defeat them, Li Xiaogong could only raise troops to meet him.
A very normal strategy and tactics, just like when Li Shentong led his army to the north, it was impossible for Li Po to fight him again under the fortified city of Jinyang.
Zhang Lun was not afraid of him, so he left Li Jing in Hanzhou to guard against Liu Hongji's coming to the west. He and Yuwen Huo led an army of 30,000 people into Pengzhou and faced Li Xiaogong on the banks of the Tuo River.
Maybe God thought they were too ink-stained and wanted them to be more aggressive, so the weather was fine that day, which was good weather for fighting.
The two armies met on the plains of western Sichuan. There were not many obstacles in all directions. This was also the core area of the Land of Abundance. The two armies faced each other. There was no nonsense about you coming and going. They only slightly adjusted their formations and accumulated the murderous intent for a long time.
It suddenly broke out.
The sound of killing suddenly started and became increasingly intense. Swords and guns were raised simultaneously, and arrows flew across the sky.
Compared with the battles involving hundreds of thousands of people from the northern princes, this can only be regarded as a small battle. The reason why it can still be called a battle is because this battle will determine the ownership of Yizhou.
For Li Xiaogong, it was a matter of life and death, but for Zhang Lun and others, it was also a great opportunity to gain promotion and become famous all over the world.
Although the meaning is relatively important, in fact it is a ragtag group of elites and ever-victorious divisions from the north with high morale, the defenders of central Sichuan who have not made any progress for many years, and the chaotic southern barbarians.
If Li Xiaogong was leading the Yizhou garrison under his command, they might have barely been able to fight. With the addition of the Nanman barbarians, the number of people would have increased. However, the Nanman barbarians who did not obey the command at all, whether they were placed in front as cannon fodder or placed behind the
Being a backup later is a disaster.
The reason why the Southern Barbarians are difficult to control is not because they are so barbaric or good at fighting, but because they hide in the mountains and forests and are difficult to eliminate. They are two different creatures from the nomads in the north. One is a bad wolf and the other is annoying.
of mice.
When they come out in groups and want to fight head-on with a group of regular soldiers, they become meat on the chopping board, it depends on how you want to cut it.
And Li Xiaogong's hard work in Shu these years was actually to pacify the Southern Barbarians for his own use.
But Zhang Lun and Yuwen Wo didn't care about this. They destroyed Li Xiaogong's years of hard work without being polite to him. After the war started, it only took half an hour to defeat the barbarian army that Li Xiaogong placed in front of the battle.
While advancing steadily, those barbarians with colorful grimacing faces, disheveled hair, half-clothed bodies, and howling madly rushed towards them, and were slashed to the ground with machetes.
Facing the calm pressure, the steel knives were swung down one after another, the blood of the same people was constantly spurting out, screams resounded in the ears, and countless arrows were flying above their heads.
Everything told them that this was completely different from the mountains and forests where they competed with other villages for prey and hunted.
