"I only need to recruit 30,000 people to defeat Xue Yantuo's army and pave the way for Liaodong."
Li Shimin smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you can go."
the next day.
Li Shimin publicly appointed Zhang Shigui as deputy general, led an army of 5,000 people, and recruited 300,000 troops in Shanxi to oppose Xue Yantuo.
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Immediately, more than half of the people expressed objections.
It was not because of Zhang Shigui's incompetence, but because of his status that he could not leave Chang'an.
They were not even allowed to leave the Daming Palace.
What's more, if he is allowed to go to war with Xue Yantuo in Liaodong, what does Li Shimin's safety mean?
Li Shimin insisted on letting Zhang Shigui fight because he had appointed Li Xiaogong as the temporary head of Xuanwu Sect.
Seeing Li Shimin's tough attitude, the civil and military officials even gave him this position, obviously they had some plan.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood" (to be continued)
He refused again and then gave up.
In fact, they are also very aware of the current situation. Xue Yantuo is no longer of any use to them. It would be best if they can send out manpower.
If this city cannot be taken, then Goguryeo will never have a chance.
It seems good for Zhang Shigui to stand up.
soon……
Zhang Shigui led the 5,000 soldiers to Shanxi for recruitment. In just two weeks, he recruited 30,000 young adults.
Without saying a word, we trained and hurried on our way. It took us a full two weeks to reach Yunzhong.
Their weapons are also ready. After more than two weeks of training, they will be assigned to the army and head to Mobei.
No one can predict this battle.
But more than ten days later, good news came, and Xue Yantuo's army retreated steadily.
More than three months have passed.
In the ninth year of Zhenguan, Zhang Shigui brought good information, that is, the 100,000 troops led by Xue Yantuo were defeated, and the Tang Dynasty fought all the way to Huanglong and captured Xue Yantuo alive.
The news came from Chang'an.
The Tang Dynasty was full of joy, news was everywhere, and even Li Shimin was extremely excited.
Yunyuan Mountain.
Su Chen was as usual, for the past four months, he had been helping others overcome their calamities.
But surprisingly, they didn't encounter any unlucky people.
In addition, he practiced "Nine Transformations of Yuan Gong" and "Liujia Secret Blessing", and his strength greatly increased.
His current mana has reached the level of 28,000 years.
With such a level of cultivation, Su Chen even obtained the Blackwater Blackwater Shield in this trial!
Zhang Shigui and Xue Rengui have not met yet, but his idea is similar to Su Chen's solution. It is natural for him to meet Xue Rengui, so the golden list gave him a reward.
Blackwater Aegis!
The Blackwater Xuanwu Cover is made from the descendants of thirty-six ancient ferocious beasts, the Blackwater Xuanwu Holy Body, and is made of Blackwater Xuanwu crystals. It has indestructible defensive properties!
Su Chen took out a black round shield and held it in his hand.
But it can be changed at will, turning into a huge city gate, or even a huge city!
Su Chen stood on the back hill, pulled out the demon-slaying sword, activated the Green Lotus Sword Technique, and prepared to kill with one strike.
Let's see if this so-called indestructible demon-slaying sword, combined with the Qinglian sword technique, can defeat such a powerful defense as the Black Water Xuanwu Shield.
In this way, he no longer has any worries, no more worries!
Whoosh!
"Green Lotus Sword!"
Su Chen slashed it with one knife!
"Green Lotus Sword!"
The peak of the back mountain was cut into pieces by this sword energy. Fortunately, Su Chen contained his sword energy.
Under the control of his thoughts, the sword light struck hard on the black water Xuanwu cover.
A bright sword light burst out from all directions.
The black water basalt shield blocked the sword light and soared into the sky, shattering the surrounding dark clouds.
The sky seemed to be torn apart.
Su Chen was stunned. He devoted all his strength to this attack, but he couldn't even penetrate the black water Xuanwu shield.
This treasure is extremely hard.
Looking up, I saw the sword energy all over the sky, hovering in the void, unable to subside for a long time.
Su Chen's attack shocked everyone outside Chang'an. Many powerful people came and speculated on what kind of changes had happened in Yunyuan Mountain.
However.
But no one would come forward.
Sun Simiao, Yan Liben, Li Bai, Yuan Tiangang and others also returned one after another.
Seeing that Su Chen was safe and sound, they asked why and then left one after another.
Su Chen couldn't help but pocket the Blackwater Xuanwu Cover, which was his strongest means of protection.
With him here, I won't be afraid of being plotted against.
Wherever you want to go, go there.
He calculated that he had been guarding the coffin of his deceased master for more than two years, and he would be able to move around freely in about half a year, which was the first half of the tenth year of Zhenguan.
However.
Although Su Chen can move freely, he does not intend to change his lifestyle because he can get more benefits here.
How could he just let go of the brand he worked so hard to build?
"I've got the Blackwater Basalt Shield. It looks like I'm going to find an opportunity to fly up there once."
When Su Chen was thinking wildly, he saw two people walking over. They were very fast and handsome.
Su Chen had a feeling of déjà vu.
When the two of them saw Su Chen, they both clasped their fists as if they didn't see anyone.
"Meet Deng Zhong (Bi Huan)."
Su Chen was startled and asked: "Who are those two? I'm not an immortal. Did I screw up?"
The two looked at each other and smiled: "Will the immortal forget us? Didn't we see it in the sky?"
As they spoke, these people returned to their original appearance. Each one of them looked strange and ferocious, like a giant thundering bird, with faces covered with green teeth.
The demon mirror hanging on the door panel was instantly activated, and a flash of brilliance struck the two of them back to their original appearance.
Fortunately, Su Chen intervened to stop him, but this also made Deng Zhong Bihuan certain that Su Chen was the Immortal.
Su Chen was slightly startled. The two of them came so blatantly, so they were not worried about being discovered by ordinary people and scared out of their wits.
"Two of you, come to my room to talk."
The two of them seemed to have read through his thoughts and smiled slightly: "Senior, don't worry, we all understand the rules and they will not disturb ordinary people. They use their magical powers and there is no way to detect their existence."
Su Chen found that those ordinary people didn't seem to take them seriously. They just nodded and walked towards the back mountain.
Huo Wuhong and Yun Zhongjun personally guided Su Ao, while Sun Simiao was taking care of the flowers in the farmland.
When they saw that Su Chen had brought a strange man, they were a little surprised. They put down what they were doing and saluted him.
