Xiao Yin was drunk and dreaming in his palace, waiting for death. However, some officials from Xiaoliang were discussing major events late at night.

In a house in Jiangling City, more than a dozen people including Liang State's Secretary of the State, Pushe Gao Lang, Tingwei Zhang Sheng, Right Cavalry General Cao Juan, Dong Huchen, the leader of the Demonic Slaying Army, Wang Wenyong, the guardian of the Guangming Army, Shao Zhong, the attendant of the Sanqi Equestrian Xu Yi, and more are discussing secretly.

These dozen people are not only senior officials and generals of Liang State, but also have a common characteristic: young.

They are all in their early twenties.

Their ability to achieve this position is inseparable from their ability on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also shows that Xiao Liang, the grass-roots team, lacks talents.

In the past, they rarely met. But tonight, they had to meet.

They not only hold half of the military power in the city, but also control the "Anxiang Society", the intelligence agency of Xiaoliang, but also has great power in the Xiaoliang court and secretly becomes the largest political force in Xiaoliang.

Of course, Xiao Liang and other officials from the White Lotus Sect had no idea about this.

It was them who secretly promoted the confluence of the White Lotus Sect in several provinces. It was them who prompted the White Lotus Sect to rebel in advance.

Under the faint candlelight, the faces of more than a dozen people were gloomy and the atmosphere seemed very solemn.

"Xiao Yin was completely depressed and gave up his can. Jiangling City will be broken within a few days. It may be difficult for us to return to Haidong to meet the Lord and the wife. We should have the intention to die."

The former high guardian, now the Shangshu Zuo Pushe Gao Lang, said.

He is the second group of Cui Xiuning's students, and his family is in Haidong. Now that Hudu Timur's army is besieging the city, it is difficult to convey the news.

Dong Huchen, the leader of the Demon-killing Army, has always been a loyal and powerful general in front of Xiao Yin, but his expression did not look like he was scheming at this time.

Dong Huchen said: "Jiangling City will be destroyed within a few days. Why don't you know? I guess that my Tang army should be coming soon."

Wei Weiqing Wang Wen nodded and said, "I guess, the king will not ignore us. Even if the king cannot draw troops to save us, it will be a big deal to die in the country, and what's the big deal."

Tingwei Zhang Sheng stood up and looked at the moon outside the window, stretched out his hand to rub the clear light, and pondered: "The Yuan army is powerful and Xiao Liang exists for the time being, which is good or bad for me, Tang. Anyway, Mrs. Jun will not know that we have already secretly controlled half of Xiao Liang's power, and it will not take long to control Xiao Liang's power."

Shao Zhong, the guardian of the Guangming Army, also said: "That's the truth. It won't take long to see Xiaoliang be a part of the Tang Dynasty. The king and his wife will not give up. Even if they really cannot come to save them, it will be our life. The great cause of anti-Yuan will eventually require someone to die in state affairs."

Cao Juan, the general of the Right Cavalry, said fiercely: "There are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city in our hands. Except for the three thousand death troops, all the elite soldiers are here. Let's take more of the last military rations, let the soldiers have a full meal for two days, and boost morale and guard for a few more days. If the city is broken, go out to the north gate and break through the riverside, and you may meet me, Tang Shu. "

Gao Lang hit the desk and said, "That's what you do! I will allocate most of the last military rations tomorrow morning and let our people eat their fill first!"

A group of people were discussing, and suddenly a general hurried in with a look of surprise and said to Dong Huchen, the leader of the Demon-killing Army: "General! The Yuan army retreated, retreated overnight!"

What!

Everyone looked at each other and soon understood, and everyone's eyes showed joy.

Hudu Timur will be able to break the city in a few more days, so why should we withdraw now?

Do you still need to think about it?

It must be my Tang army coming!

"Hahaha! The Lord may have come in person!" Gao Lang suddenly stood up, "Go to see Xiao Yin!"

"Don't go see each other together, so as not to doubt Xiao Yin."

"Okay! As soon as my Tang army came, Temur, Hudu, was a grasshopper in autumn!"

…………

Soon, news of the Yuan army evacuating Jiangling overnight spread throughout the city, and the people cheered.

The Yuan army withdrew! Because... the Tang army is here!

In fact, they didn't know that the Tang army was coming, and they didn't even know what the Tang army was. However, as soon as the spies spoke, they all believed it.

Otherwise it would be impossible to explain.

"Hahaha!" Xiao Yin was immediately ecstatic when he heard the news.

"The sky is endless! The sky is endless! The beam is endless!" Xiao Yin was so happy like a child, dancing and laughing loudly in the palace, "Did you see it? Hu Hu retreated! I have the protection of God, and I am the true dragon emperor! Come and go to court!"

Xiao Yin ascended to the court and his eyes regained a little confidence. "All the ministers, the Tartars have retreated. My Daliang revival is hoped!"

Prime Minister Shouyang said, "Your Majesty, it is said that Li Luo's Tang army has arrived. Hu Hu was afraid of being attacked from both sides, so he took the initiative to lift the siege of Jiangling!"

Xiao Liang was so energetic that he suddenly became energetic again, and he laughed: "I didn't expect that even Li Luo, the high-ranking official of Tartar, had rebelled and called himself Duke Tang. Good! OK! Duke Tang came at the time! I want to thank him!"

He paced back and forth, frowned and murmured, "What official position is better to be granted to Duke Tang?" While walking, he slapped his boxing and suddenly shook his sleeves, his hands were on his back, his head shook, and he nodded heavily, and said with a stern voice: "Just sign him as Taibao, Sikong, Kaifuyi and the three sects!"

Xiao Yin used the official system of Xiaoliang, the Southern Dynasty. These three official positions were all first-rank, and they were not uncommon. They were just one less "to be in charge of integrity and to govern the military affairs inside and outside."

However, Taoist Shouyang was still dumbfounded. Your Majesty, who is Li Luo? Will he accept your official position?

What a joke.

Gao Lang, Dong Huchen and others all sneered in their hearts. Will you accept your official position? Are you dizzy when you drink? You are not afraid of losing your life.

However, Gao Lang still said respectfully: "Your Majesty, since the Tartars withdraw, our army should take out all the military rations and feast for the soldiers, and prepare to pursue Demon Hu! Attacking the Tang army in front and behind, destroying the Tartars army in one fell swoop!"

Dong Huchen also said: "Your Majesty, as long as your Majesty gives orders, I will not even fight for my life, and I will pursue Demon Hu!" He looked like a straightforward general.

Take the initiative to pursue?

Xiao Yin hesitated immediately.

Not good, right? What if this is the trap of the Tartars? What if Li Luo didn’t come?

However, the secret agents of the Tang Kingdom demanded a voluntary pursuit, and even Hong Quida, the leader of Xiao Yin's most trusted suicide army, requested a pursuing to boost the morale of the army.

Even Prime Minister Shouyang said, "Your Majesty, although Daliang is in Huguang, the people's hearts are still there, but our army is in a difficult city of sorrow and food, and the only way is to fight to the death! If the Tartars defeat Li Luo and come to Jiangling again, all major events will be put aside."

Xiao Yin was finally moved.

"Okay! Then take out the last military rations and let the soldiers have a full meal for the whole day! The next day, go out of the city to pursue them! However, we must first send a horse to explore carefully, be careful of the Tatars' fraud!"

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Duke Li Luo of Tang, has arrived!"

Li Luo’s messenger has arrived? So soon!

"Come on your behalf!" Xiao Yin was like a drowning person grabbing a straw, and was overjoyed.

At a moment, a young official wearing a grand red robe was led to the palace.

When Gao Lang and other spies in Tang State saw that they recognized that this person was Ma Xuanli, a classmate of their class. They had once "on a mission" to the Chen Yue Kingdom and were also a senior spy.

Ma Xuanli only pretended not to know Gao Lang and others. He bowed to Xiao Yinchang and said loudly: "Foreign minister, the Tang Dynasty's Li, the doctor of Cao, Ma Xuanli, will pay homage to His Majesty Liang!"

Ma Xuanli took the lead and entered Jiangling after the Yuan army withdrew.

Xiao Yin is not an idiot. As soon as he heard someone’s words, he knew that Li Luo would never accept his official position.

"You are polite! You are exempt from courtesy! Did you accept the order of Gong Tang?" Xiao Yin asked.

Ma Xuanli said with neither humility nor arrogant words: "When you say to Your Majesty, the foreign minister is sent by my king."

Xiao Yin's eyes lit up, "Thank you for your hard work. I wonder why Gong Tang sent an envoy to teach me?"

Ma Xuanli smiled and said, "Your Majesty knows that when Princess Guangming of your country seeks help, Duke Tang has personally led a large army of more than 100,000. Now he should cross the river to Jianli and come to lift the siege of Jiangling."

It’s really here! It turns out that the Buddha girl has worked hard to ask for help... She has made an indelible contribution!

Xiao Yin wanted to laugh again, and was extremely proud that he had made Xu Fu Princess Guangming. The ministers such as the Taoist Shouyang were also very excited.

"Also, our Tang army has defeated Zhang Hongfan and annihilated 200,000 Tartars. Zhang Hongfan himself was taken to Lin'an and will be executed by Lingchi soon..." Ma Xuanli once again threw out a shocking news.

What?

Xiao Liang's monarch and ministers were both surprised and happy. Zhang Hongfan was captured? Wouldn't that mean that the situation is about to improve?

What shocked them even more was that the Tang army could destroy Zhang Hongfan! Although the army of 200,000 must have exaggerated it, there must be more than 100,000.

It seems that Li Luo’s Tang army is very strong!

Gao Lang and others were even more excited when they heard about this great victory.

I, Tang Dasheng!

"Okay! Mr. Tang is really a hero in the world and a hero in the Han family!" Even Xiao Yin was jealous and sincerely admired him.

He never expected that Li Luo would rebel as a magistrate of the Yuan Dynasty, and he would never expected that Li Luo would be so powerful.

But I heard Ma Xuanli say, "My Lord is grateful to Your Majesty for his determination to resist the Yuan Dynasty. In order to work together to restore the Han family's territory, he borrowed 300,000 stones of military rations, 30,000 spears, and 10,000 armor... The supplies are already on the boat by the river!"

When Xiao Yin heard this, he couldn't help but stand up, "Duke Tang is righteous, I am grateful to Wuji! Please tell me that the envoy will personally lead a large army to the east and attack Hudu Timur in Duke Tang!"

Soon, Duke Li Luo of Tang personally led an army of more than 100,000 to aid, and the news that Tang State also provided food and military weapons spread throughout Jiangling City.

More than 200,000 soldiers and civilians in the city were all in full bloom. I don’t know how many people prayed to God and thanked Tang Duke Li Luo. The name of Li Luo was immediately known to everyone.

The Liang army was greatly motivated and morale was rapidly recovered. Xiao Yin sent people to retrieve the food and weapons provided by the Tang Dynasty by the river, immediately rectified the troops, recruited young and strong people, and enjoyed the soldiers.

Then, Xiao Yin issued an edict and personally fought for the next day!

…………

Hudu Timur's army was a hundred miles away from Jiangling City at this time.

His originally energetic big pie face also had a little more worry and solemnity.

Seeing that Jiangling City could be captured soon, he had to retreat.

Because he received the news, Zhang Hongfan and Li Luo fought in Meiling and their entire army was wiped out! Even Zhang Hongfan himself was captured and sent to Lin'an. Moreover, after Li Luo destroyed Zhang Hongfan, he immediately advanced westward and had arrived in Jianli at this time!

The rebels... are powerful!

If he does not withdraw his troops, then when the rebels come to Jiangling, he will be attacked by Xiao Yin's bandit army and the rebels. With the joint efforts of the two armies, he will most likely lose.

Then, I have to leave Jiangling and deal with Li Luo first. Wait until Li Luo is solved, and then turn around to solve Xiao Yin.

Hudu Timur is full of confidence in Xiao Yin. Even if Xiao Yin gets a chance to breathe and even recovers his strength, he is still completely sure to destroy the other party.

But he was not sure about Li Luo!

Who is Li Luo? He was a famous general of the Yuan Dynasty who once conquered the Japanese and destroyed Yue. After the rebellion, he was as powerful as a rainbow, and he destroyed Gao Xing, Wanzhedu and Zhang Hongfan swept across the southeast, like a wolf or a tiger.

He really has no idea about such a person.

Originally, according to the military strategy, after he and Zhang Hongfan respectively resolved Zhao Liangqin and Xiao Yin, they met in the southeast to kill the rebels together.

But now, Zhang Hongfan has been wiped out. Only he has more than 100,000 troops left.

As for Sichuan Province and Yunnan Province, it will take at least one month to mobilize the troops and horses to attack the Southeast, which is not urgent at all.

In fact, Hudu Timur received an imperial edict from Dadu ten days ago, asking him to give up attacking Xiao Yin and go to the southeast to deal with Li Luo first.

But when he saw that Jiangling City was about to be captured, he was unwilling to give up all his previous efforts, so he did not immediately withdraw his troops under the pretext of not accepting the orders of the generals outside the country, but stayed for ten more days.

Unexpectedly, Jiangling did not conquer it in the end, but still wanted to withdraw.

Dadali and other Yuan generals looked bad, and they could not have thought that Li Luo would destroy Zhang Hongfan so soon. Moreover, they were about to face Li Luo, the former Shangguan, which made them feel awkward.

When Li Luo was the one who was Huguang Pingzhang, he was undermined by Hudu Timur. They thought that Li Luo was incompetent. Now when they think about it, Li Luo was incompetent? He was just conspiring to rebel and didn't care about the authority of Huguang Pingzhang at all.

I guess at that time, Li Luo might be wondering how to laugh at them in his heart.

Jokes them... idiots.

The ugly face was Chen Yiji who followed the army.

This man who was once Prince Annan was so in tears.

Dayue was gone, and he was named the King of Jiaozhou, who was only given the position of Ezhou chief executive. When Li Luo was Pingzhang, he originally wanted to hold Li Luo's thigh. Unexpectedly, Li Luo was "supported" by his deputy, so he quickly changed his appearance and defected to the second-in-command Hudu Timur.

But just now, the Timur party in Hudu was almost gone, and Li Luo actually rebelled!

It would be fine to rebel, but at most it would be suppressed. He would be happy to see Li Luo being suppressed.

But who would have thought that Li Luo was so powerful that he not only swallowed the entire Jiangnan, but also defeated the Yuan army repeatedly, and no one could take charge of the army.

In addition, Li Luo also blocked the river and the sea, isolating the north and south, and his momentum was extremely powerful.

If he had followed Li Luo at the beginning, what would have happened?

Alas, I am really stupid. When Li Luo was in Annan, he turned his hand around and turned his hands into rain. He had such powerful methods, how could he come to Huguang and be overshadowed by Timur in Hudu?

If Li Luo hadn't done it intentionally, would it be possible?

If Hudu Timur follows Zhang Hongfan's footsteps this time and Huguang is all occupied by the rebels and thieves, where should he, the Ezhou general manager, go?

Hudu Timur's expression was gloomy. While secretly scolding Zhang Hongfan for being incompetent, he was thinking about countermeasures to defeat Li Luo.

According to the spies, the rebels had many soldiers and horses, and they were well-armed, which was definitely not comparable to the bandits. Even the rebels' cavalry was very strong. Although the number was unknown, they should not be much worse than his 30,000 cavalry.

Otherwise, Wan Zhedu and Zhang Hongfan would not have been able to destroy them.

He only has an army of 150,000, and may not be more numerous than the rebels. However, it is said that the rebels' firearms are very sharp and well-trained, so he has no confidence in winning.

"Report!" A knight came on his horse, "Na Yan, Li Luo's rebels have already camped in the north of the sand mountain, less than sixty miles away!"

Hudu Timur didn't know the place of Shashan and asked, "How many soldiers are there? Where is the map of Shashan?"

The explorer said, "The general's atonement for his sins. He really doesn't know how many soldiers there are. The map of Shashan was not able to draw it, so he was expelled by the rebel cavalry. However, the rebels did not seem to continue to march."

Hudu Timur scolded: "Baste!"

Dadali suddenly said, "Zhongtang, I know that the mountain is not high, the terrain is wide, and there are rivers, which are very suitable for garrisoning large troops. But it cannot set up an ambush."

Hudu Timur nodded and ordered to continue his march.

Chen Yiji made a suggestion by a stranger: "Zhongtang, since Li Luo's rebels no longer advance, why should our army advance? Why would we go back to Jiangling to attack Xiao Yin."

All the generals looked at him with a fool's eyes, which made the man feel cold.

Hudu Timur snorted coldly, "Cowardly people, they will find a hundred and a thousand reasons to defend their retreat. Even though they know that the rebels are coming, they dare not respond. Do they still have the morale of the army? Wouldn't it make the rebels even more arrogant? If they don't march and let the rebels fight, will the rebels be eaten by cattle and sheep like grass on the grass?"

Chen Yiji's face was flushed when he was choked and could only smile embarrassedly.

"Let us release our heroic Haidongqing! Use the eyes and wings given to them by the immortal god, and check the movements of the rebels!" Hudu Timur said.

"twitter!"

Soon a few eagle-raising men came to the front of the army. Hai Dongqing, who was full of energy and eager to try, stood on their shoulders.

"Warriors in the air, friends of the Mongolians, please spread your wings and fly high, and use your wisdom to monitor the movements of the enemy!" The eagle breeder said loudly, taking out the mutton and feeding the birds of prey.

Several Haidongqing swallowed mutton fiercely, and the eagle's eyes were full of fierce expressions.

When Hai Dongqing used up the mutton, the eagle raised his mouth to the bird of prey's ears and murmured in a low voice, looking very mysterious, as if he really understood the bird's singing.

Finally, the eagle-raising man raised Hai Dongqing's arm, pointed at Dongfang, and scolded: "Go!"

"Cry! Cry!"

Several Haidongqing slammed the shoulders of the eagle-raising man, and soared into the sky like arrows, carrying a strong wind, piercing the sky.

In the blink of an eye, I spread my wings and rush to the sky, flying in the dark!

Several eagle-raising men also shouted and ran away with their special bone whistles, following the direction of Haidongqing flying.

…………

In the Tang Army camp north of the sand mountain, Li Luo was looking up at the sea Dongqing in the sky.

"Your Majesty, that is the Eagle Army Raptor of the Yuan army, used to investigate the enemy's situation." Shi Mahuaide said, pointing to the sky.

Li Luo frowned. The flying was too high, and it was difficult to shoot the arrow, and it was impossible to hit the fire, and the musket could not be hit.

"How do they detect the enemy situation?" Li Luo asked.

Shi Mahuaide replied: "Hai Dongqing is very smart. After training from a young age, he can make different hovering momentums and make different calls based on the number of enemy horses, the size of the camp, and the terrain. Only the eagle raising people can understand the nuances of this. Therefore, the eagle raising people is also called the eagle witch."

Li Luo asked again: "Are they accurate in their exploration?"

Shi Mahuaide looked a little solemn, "Every time I explore the enemy situation, I need several Haidongqing. Some specifically find the number of war horses, some specifically find out whether there are ambushers, some specifically find out the speed of the march, some specifically find out the number of camp tents, and some also explore the terrain of the garrison. Each one has only one purpose. Therefore, their exploration results are quite different and there will be no big mistakes."

"Haidongqing can probably figure out whether there are ambushers, the approximate number, marching speed, and what terrain it is on."

Li Luo understood that it turned out to be a division of labor, and he had received special training since he was a child, so he could explain it.

The eagle has strong vision. It can find a snake on the ground at a height of 1,000 meters and insects on the ground within hundreds of meters. Hai Dongqing's vision is even stronger than ordinary eagles. It can be imagined that even if Tang Jun wore a camouflage uniform, he would not be able to escape Hai Dongqing's eyes.

At this time, Hai Dongqing in the sky made a series of screams, hovering high and low in the air for a while, and then flew away again.

It was only one or two minutes before and the process was very short.

"The troops have been exposed." Li Luo was a little depressed.

The sandy mountain he stationed was a "L"-shaped mountain. It camped among the bends of the mountain. The mountain could block the right wing and the back. Only the front and left wings would be attacked by the enemy.

This place is only more than one hundred miles away from Jiangling. The troops stationed here can accumulate energy and wait for the arrival of Hudu Timur.

Why is Li Luo so sure that Hudu Timur would take the initiative to fight him?

It's very simple. First of all, this is in line with common sense. When fighting under Jiangling City, the Yuan army must also be wary of the Liang army in the city going out of the city to attack. Therefore, the Yuan army would take the initiative to leave Jiangling and face itself.

Second, the spies in the Yuan army had already reported that Hudu Timur was about to set off to come east.

Since Hudu Timur is definitely coming, Li Luo certainly doesn't want to leave again, so he just waits for the Yuan army here.

Even the time is almost the same. He will confront Hudu Timur for two days and stick to the battle.

When the Liang army arrives, Hudu Timur will definitely divide his troops to welcome the Liang army, which is the best time for the Yuan army to deal with. The fastest update is computer::/

Without the Liang army, Li Luo was confident that he could defeat Hudu Timur. But in this way, casualties would be small. With the Liang army participating in the war, the casualties of the Tang army would be reduced.

"Your Majesty, the military slaves have dug trenches, arranged the horse-resisting horse-resisting walls," said Ma Zhiyuan, who is a marching Sima, and these are also his territorial terms.

Li Luo nodded and said, "Transfer orders, raise the tent and discuss matters!"

He felt a lot of passion in his heart again. Huguang, I, Li Luo, are back! But this time, I am not the Huguang Pingzhang of the Yuan court!

…………

Not long after, Hai Dongqing of the Yuan army returned to the Yuan army's main formation.

An eagle raising man blew the bone whistle, and his Hai Dongqing returned to the air again, hovering high and low for a while, his movements were very complicated, and then he fell down.

The eagle breeder immediately reported: "Dear Na Yan, the place where the rebels were stationed was a mountain of ten miles in radius, with a mountain with a radius of yards. The mountain was not high. There was a river on the left side of the mountain."

Hudu Timur nodded and snorted coldly: "Li Luo can choose a place. It seems that he is not sure of winning. Put the second eagle!"

"twitter!"

Soon, the second eagle also flew into the sky and circled slowly. Its movements were not complicated, but it made different rhythms.

The second eagle-raising man said: "Reporting to Na Yan, the rebels had 60,000 to 70,000 horses and mules, and the war horses were 40,000 to 50,000."

How to distinguish between war horses and transport mules and horses? Because war horses have saddles, mules and horses used for transportation do not have saddles. Moreover, war horses will not be mixed with mules and horses used for transportation.

Hudu Timur said: "So, Li Luo has at least 20,000 cavalrymen, a lot of them."

Next, Hudu Timur finally figured out that the total number of rebels was about 140,000 to 160,000. Excluding the slaves and husbands in the army, it is estimated that the maximum is 120,000 to 130,000, and there may not be one yet.

Hudu Timur suddenly gained a lot of confidence.

"Transfer, march slowly and keep your energy!"

"twitter!"

It was Chen Yiji. He heard that the rebels did not have too many troops, so he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Two hours later, the 150,000 army finally appeared more than ten miles west of the Shashan Mountain.

In addition to the slaves and husbands in the army, the number was as high as 190,000.

At first glance, the army was overwhelmed with the mountains and fields. Along the way, I don’t know how many crops were destroyed.

Especially the 30,000 cavalry, the rushing momentum is like thunder.

The army of 150,000 yuan was composed of 10,000 Mongolian cavalry, 20,000 Seminar cavalry, 60,000 Huguang Han army, 30,000 Henan Jiangbei Han army, and 30,000 Huguang chieftain barbarians.

The military power is more majestic than Zhang Hongfan!
Chapter completed!
