The Tang State was afraid that King Li would lose his trust, so he naturally spread the word and used public opinion to contain the Li army; the Li State was afraid that the Sui and Tang Dynasties would not know about it and would not be able to concentrate on fighting each other.
In just a few days, the agreement between Tang and Li was spread throughout the world, and the Sui army naturally knew about it immediately!
As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked.
However, the relationship between King Tang and King Li is the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law, and the concubine Li Xiuning is the bond between father-in-law and son-in-law. It is completely understandable for other people to play the war "gentlely" and resolve it peacefully. At least the armies and people of the two countries are.
To cheer the whole world up, all we need is to celebrate together.
If wars were fought like this, how harmonious would the world be?!
Of course, as for other forces, they are completely confused!
With the Li-Tang War going on like this, how can other forces enjoy the show? How can they reap the benefits?
Especially the King of Wei, Li Mi, wanted to surrender but was unwilling to do so. He just wanted to wait for the outcome of the Li Tang War. Now he is completely dumbfounded!
When Li Tang resolves the issue peacefully, who is under the greatest pressure?!
Of course it's Wei.
The Xia State is still behind the Wei State, and the Wei and Tang Dynasties are the first obstacles to the Li Army, blocking the Li Army's northward path from east to west. Now that the Li Tang peace talks are in progress, the pressure of the Li Army is entirely on the Wei State. Isn't this a trap?
?!
When King Li Mi of Wei heard the information, he threw his glass and smashed the table in public, eager to verify the authenticity of the information.
Can the war still be fought like this?
If I had known this, King Li Mi of Wei would have married King Li.
It's a pity that Li Mi's daughter is still young and infancy...
After confirming the authenticity of the intelligence, Wei King Li Mi, who had been stalling for time, could no longer sit still and quickly took the initiative to visit Li Guo representatives to discuss the issue of surrender.
Now and then, if the Li army that was attacking Tang was transferred to Wei, the situation would be different. Li Mi, who had a personal enmity with King Li, was deeply afraid that King Li would not let him surrender, so he decided to surrender.
Again... keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood!
Fortunately, Li Wang Dadu did not wait for a price and raised the price. He still followed the previous agreement, which made Wei Wang Li Mi sigh a big sigh of relief.
Of course, the price of delaying time is that the Wei army will become the vanguard of the Li army to conquer Xia!
…
Henan County, Mianchi City, Sui Army.
King Zhenwu He Ruobi cursed angrily, and the Sui generals present, including Xuanxiang Wang Gao Ying and General Pei Yuanqing of the Expedition to the West, fell silent, with frighteningly ugly faces.
All the Sui generals present were of high ability, even Pei Yuanqing was aware of the impact of the "Li Tang Agreement".
Apart from anything else, the Tang army frantically dispatched troops from all over the south to support the west, especially the checkpoints and fortresses in the west, which is enough to explain all the problems!
Originally, the Sui general wanted to add insult to injury and take advantage of the situation, but King Li did this and turned it into a life-and-death battle between the two countries. The meaning was completely different!
"Today's King of Tang, and even the generals of the Tang Kingdom, have become frightened, have lost confidence, and are afraid of being beaten..."
Silver Demon Pei Yuanqing's mouth twitched several times, he smiled bitterly, shook his head and analyzed.
This is indeed the case, otherwise who would be the leader of the country and agree to such a ridiculous agreement?
More importantly, the Sui generals did not see what benefits the Tang State had gained. The Li army was still conducting conquests, but the pressure was greatly reduced and the speed of conquests was greatly increased. The Tang State had become a coward, and it knew how to defend the eight passes and hold on
Dongdu, isn’t this asking for death?!
This kind of agreement, a typical drinking poison to quench thirst, can the king of Tang accept it? His brain is caught in the door, right?
"Nothing in the country is trivial, and don't underestimate any leader. Anyone who can stand out from the thirty-six rebel kings and seventy-two rebel thieves should not be underestimated!"
Seeing everyone's reaction, Xuanxiang Wang Gaoying felt helpless and pressed his right hand, and reminded in a calm tone. After a pause, he reminded emphatically:
"Especially the Concubine De, both King Tang and King Li are so optimistic about her. It's no coincidence!"
"Don't worry, old prince, I will never underestimate any opponent!"
He Ruobi was fine, Pei Yuanqing straightened his body and responded solemnly.
He Ruobi and Gao Ying were of the same level, and the other generals were not of the same level. Gao Ying's words should be mainly to remind Pei Yuanqing, but not the same.
"The King of Tang's move was obviously to drink poison to quench his thirst, but he had no choice but to do it. This was King Li's conspiracy!"
The Xuanxiang Wang Gaoying, who has white hair and beard but whose race is as vast as the sea and unfathomable, still analyzed slowly.
After thinking for a while, he explained:
"With the two countries attacking from both sides, the Tang State has no hope and will surely be destroyed. Now that King Li has come in person and promised, he can at least temporarily relieve the worries of the Tang State and focus on dealing with us. As long as we can be repelled, in the future, we may not be able to rely on the geographical advantage to deal with Li
country!"
"But... the Li army didn't stop its conquest? The Tang army transferred all its troops to our side. Isn't this looking for death?" Pei Yuanqing asked in confusion, and others nodded in confusion.
Gao Ying smiled and explained without hesitation: "This is the unspoken price beyond the agreement. The king of Tang used the territory beyond the eight passes in exchange for the temporary cessation of the war against the Li army. This is an alliance under the city, cutting off the land to survive!"
"You just tricked us..."
Pei Yuanqing suddenly realized it, but he muttered angrily.
"Really? In fact, whether the Li Army has stopped fighting for the time being, is there any difference from our original plan? Wouldn't it be better if the Li Army did not come to fight for it?" Gao Ying asked with a smile.
"This..." Pei Yuanqing was startled and was speechless for a moment.
According to the original plan of the Sui Empire, the Sui army took advantage of the heavy losses of the Tang state to launch a violent attack, hoping to destroy the Tang state in one fell swoop. However, the Li army's northern expedition forced the Sui army to speed up the expedition, fearing that the eastern capital would fall to the Li army.
If it is in the hands of the army, it will be countless times more difficult to get it back!
Now, it's just that the situation has returned to the original plan, and there really isn't much difference.
"It's just that there is an extra concubine from Li Kingdom. Will King Li secretly help Concubine De to resist our army?"
Zhenwu King He Ruobi, who was silent for a moment, couldn't help but ask after hearing this for a moment.
He Ruobi and Gao Ying were at the same level, so Gao Ying could not and could not veto and teach He Ruobi in public. He could only talk about Pei Yuanqing. It seemed that he was teaching Pei Yuanqing and supporting his younger generations, but in fact he was explaining it to He Ruobi.
Among the nine heavenly kings, King Zhenwu and King Tianhu Han Qinhu, and King Dingyanping of Double Spears, are relatively more force-oriented and not good at military strategy, but they are also battle-hardened. After Gao Ying gave a hint, He Ruobi naturally understood!
"Well! In the opinion of King Zhenwu, we have to guard against this. This is the focus of this meeting!" Gao Ying nodded in agreement.
"Then what should we do now? Should we accept it as soon as possible, or should we continue the conquest?"
Pei Yuanqing blurted out a question in confusion.
"Of course I will continue the attack. King Li is known as the King of Martial Arts who conquers the world. My name is King Zhenwu. I really want to see the strength of King Li and see if he is worthy of his name!"
He Ruobi blurted out without hesitation and looked to the west where Hangu Pass was, with high fighting spirit.
King Li was not only named Wu, but also known as King Wu. He happened to be in conflict with He Ruobi. Maybe King Li was really suppressed by King Zhenwu? This is fate!
"No matter what, it will take time for Concubine Li and King Li to contain us. This is also our biggest advantage. We must capture Hangu Pass as soon as possible..."
