On the Youzhou front line, the Yue family army could not hold on.
There were more figures in Taoist robes in the formation, and they came from various places in the Song Dynasty.
There are also a steady stream of monks rushing here. There are often monks flying through the air, and all kinds of magic weapons are emitting brilliance.
At first, the soldiers couldn't help but look up in admiration, but now they are used to it.
In the camp opposite, wild beasts roared from time to time, and the sound made people's scalp numb.
When we were in Bianliang, there were confrontations between heavenly soldiers and generals. According to those people, the heavenly soldiers had nothing to fear and their heads would fall off if they were struck with a sword.
As for the heavenly generals, they were not very powerful. The Taoist Taoist killed the five gods in a short time.
“Should there be a water flag here?”
"I think it's better to use wind."
Yue Fei was in the camp, watching two young monks setting up a formation barrier.
Hearing their quarrel, Yue Fei said nothing but walked over and placed a small red flag between them.
In an instant, the formation was completed, and a burst of red light erupted, covering the sky above.
The two monks looked up in shock, but Yue Fei had already turned to leave.
"I didn't expect General Yue to be involved in battle tactics."
"It's really awesome. I also want to join the army in the future and fight with a sword and a gun to become a general."
"You want to be a general?" His companion laughed mercilessly: "That's really too humiliating. You should join the New Conferred Gods."
"screw you."
Listening to the noise between the two people behind him, Yue Fei's face was still solemn.
With the war approaching, I was originally worried about morale, but nothing seems to have happened in this regard.
Logically speaking, they should be afraid of starting a war with God, but no one took it seriously at all.
Only then did Yue Fei realize that Lin Lingsu, Li Yu and the others had been preparing for this battle for many years.
They worked hard to prove to people time and time again that gods can be defeated by mortals and are not invincible.
Yue Fei recalled that when Li Yu gave him Zhuge Kongming's pamphlet, it really opened another door for Yue Fei. Through this door, he saw a world he had never seen before.
It was an extremely grand world, mysterious and unusual, but also obscure and difficult to understand.
Yue Feiyou remembered how uncomfortable he felt on the first night when he was holding the booklet and reading it.
My head felt like it was going to explode.
The average person would have gone crazy a long time ago, but it is only because of his strong will that he persevered.
Since then, he has transformed.
Thinking of the past, Yue Fei had to admit that he had benefited a lot from the upright Taoist Li Yu.
He looked favorably on me, gave me a lot of things, and helped me to rise higher.
Yue Fei knew better than anyone else that Li Yu had the final say in the Song Dynasty, but he just didn't interfere much in the affairs of the state.
Li Yu is always on the road. Everyone knows what he is busy with and knows that he has no selfish motives, so they respect him very much. Yue Fei looked into the distance and thought to himself:
This time, you can also lead everyone to win.

Chang'an, Tai Chi Hall.
Li Shimin brought Li Yu and others to a table covered with a yellow cloth.
Li Shimin stretched out his hand and opened it. There was a sand table underneath.
Liu Bowen recognized it immediately and said: "This is Yinzhou, Xiazhou area."
Li Shimin nodded.
Liu Bowen frowned and said, "What does this mean?"
"The Mongols have been prepared for a long time. They have secretly communicated with the Heavenly Court and received countless aids." Li Shimin said: "We, the Tang Dynasty, have already detected the transactions. They traded with the Heavenly Court through the wealthy merchants in Jinling of the Ming Dynasty."
Li Yu and Liu Bowen looked at each other, then lowered their heads to look at the sand table.
As expected, none of the intelligence agencies of the Six Dynasties, except for the flowery Imperial City Division of the Song Dynasty, was good at anything.
Fortunately, Zhao Ji died early, otherwise the Song Dynasty would have been carved up long ago.
Li Shimin said: "Although Privets are brave, they have too few people and a small territory. They inherited the land and population of Khitan, but they did not have time to conquer it, so they rushed to join the war. I am not worried."
He pointed at the map and said: "On the contrary, Mongolia is a serious concern. Do you know who is ruling the generation that borders the Song Dynasty?"
Li Yu felt a little ashamed and shook his head.
He only knew that the northwest area was handed over to Yue Fei, and the south was handed over to Han Shizhong. He really didn't care about the rest. The soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty have always been criticized, and the famous generals are far less than those of the Wei, Shu, Wu, and Tang Dynasties.
If there are more, the soldiers will not be as strong as the Ming Dynasty.
"They are the Western Army of the Song Dynasty. In fact, to put it bluntly, they are the four families of Zhong, Zhe, Yao, and Yang. We say they are local officials of the Song Dynasty, but it is better to say they are princes who dominate one area." Li Shimin said: "Such a clan force is the most powerful.
It is easy to be bribed and won over by Heaven. I think of these four families, only the Zhong family is somewhat loyal, and the rest may not be reliable."
Sure enough, professional matters should be done by professionals. Li Shimin made the situation very clear in just a few words.
And he started collecting information in this area very early.
All I know is that I have to fight, and I have to fight faster, and I keep making connections.
Li Yujing calmed down and thought about it. It seemed that he had never thought about how to fight. Fighting was a major event. It was the so-called place of life and death, the way of survival.
Logically speaking, it requires many years of careful preparation, gathering intelligence, mobilizing reserves, predictions and deductions...
Only then did Li Yu realize that maybe when he started to instigate the kings of the Six Dynasties, the human emperors had already started.
Li Shimin pointed at Xiazhou and said: "This is the northern gate of the Central Plains. I hope the Song Dynasty can have trust and allow my men to go and fight the Mongols."
Li Yu was a little hesitant. Li Shimin had a criminal record in this regard and was not worthy of trust.
At that time, the Song Dynasty was in turmoil, so he directly sent Li Jing to take advantage of the chaos to rob and occupy a large area of territory.
Later, they met Yue Fei, who was fighting to the death. The Tang army was blocked by Yue Fei because of the exhaustion of troops on the expedition. In the end, the Tang Dynasty did not want to start an all-out war, and at that time, it had to worry about Jing and Xiang, so it decided to withdraw its troops.
Li Yu's suspicion was also expected by Li Shimin. He was not angry and said with a smile: "I still know my priorities. I will definitely not take the opportunity to expand the territory this time. You can rest assured. Even if we want to fight for it, then
It’s also after this battle.”
"The Mongols are powerful, and the Song Dynasty is really unable to defend the Ligustrum and the Mongols at the same time. If my troops do not participate in the battle, it will be like sitting back and watching the Song Dynasty suffer."
Both Li Yu and Liu Bowen knew that what he said was true. The Song Dynasty was unable to fight against these two powerful enemies at the same time, but they were both bordering the Song Dynasty. For the current solution, the only option was to invite foreign aid.
Li Yu thought for a long time in his mind that Li Shimin could be trusted this time, because he had the elixir in his hand and was not worried about him going back on his word.
Li Yu nodded and said: "Of course I will not doubt Your Majesty."
"Okay, let Li Ji go out and meet Temujin for a while!"
