At night, Dou Jiande's imperial camp was brightly lit.
After Li Shimin occupied the imperial camp, he set it up as a former enemy command post and was busy until late at night, when it was about to end.
Seeing that everyone was starving, Li Shimin ordered some food to be prepared and they could cope with it casually.
"The military advisor has arrived!"
At this moment, a sergeant announced at the tent. Everyone turned their heads and saw Xia Yu coming in with a smile on his face.
"Military advisor." Everyone stood up quickly.
At this time, Xia Yu's prestige was at its peak.
Even Dou Jiande, a world-famous tycoon, was turned into a cloud by this person, and was played with by the applause like rain.
More than 100,000 Xia troops were destroyed in the blink of an eye.
Who is not afraid of the wisdom of such gods and ghosts!
Who dares to be disrespectful!
Li Shimin stepped forward hurriedly, grabbed Xia Yu's hand enthusiastically, and complained: "Why are the military advisors here? The war has just stopped, and there are still broken troops. What should I do if I encounter danger?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, there is a protective military advisor from a certain family." Qin Qiong smiled and followed in.
Li Shimin was relieved at this moment: "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come here and give the military advisor and Shu Bao something to eat."
"promise."
Xia Yu found a seat and sat down. While waiting for food, she asked, "Your Highness, the war is over. What is the specific situation on the front line?"
Upon hearing this, Li Er couldn't help but beam with joy.
"A great success. In addition to capturing Dou Jiande alive, we also killed three generals, Zhang Qingte, Fan Yuan, and Han Hong, and captured Dong Kangmai."
"Among the civil servants, Ling Jing, Wei Zheng, Zhang Xuansu, Kong Desshao, etc. were also captured."
"As for the ordinary Xia soldiers, they caught so many that they didn't even have time to count them. Anyway, there are about a hundred acres, so there are tens of thousands of them!"
ha!
Xia Yu was stunned and joked: "Nowadays, is it popular to use acres to count people's heads?"
"Hahaha!" The tent burst into laughter.
"By the way, Your Highness," Xia Yu glanced around and said with some surprise: "Why don't you see Xu Yuanlang and Meng Jiong?"
Everyone's eyes were a little ambiguous, and no one wanted to see such a creature on both ends of the spectrum.
However, it is difficult to say too much about the person who assisted the Tang army and made great achievements.
Li Shimin glanced at Xia Yu and said with a smile: "The two generals are familiar with Xia's army, so I asked them to lead their troops to guard the prisoners."
Xia Yu understood and immediately changed the subject: "By the way, have you ever caught that Queen Cao and the fake Prince Xia?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's face became a little bitter: "But he arrived a step too late! The fake Xiang Qi Shanxing actually joined the two of them earlier and escaped."
Xia Yu's expression changed and she said anxiously: "Your Highness, if the three of them are allowed to escape back to Hebei, there will be trouble in the future!"
Xia State still has an army of 100,000 in Hebei, as well as Liu Heitai, Su Dingfang and other four generals. If someone calls for it, the disaster will be serious.
"Gu understands." Li Shimin comforted Xia Yu and said, "Military advisor, don't worry, Gu has quickly sent people to Xingyang, Guanzhou, and Bianzhou to pass orders, and do their best to intercept and kill the remnants of Zheng's army. We must not let the three of them escape."
Xia Yu thought about it for a while, but still felt something was wrong: "Your Highness, Qi Shanxing is cunning and scheming, and there are remnants of the Xia Army to the east to support him, so I'm afraid he may not be able to succeed."
"I think it is better to send generals quickly to pursue them along the way to completely cut off any hope of the Puppet Xia's resurgence."
"That's it, but the soldiers have been a little tired after fighting for a day."
Li Shimin was a little hesitant, but he thought it was unnecessary to rush and panic like he was facing a formidable enemy.
After all, even Dou Jiande, the emperor of the Xia Dynasty, was captured, so how could a few fish slip through the net and stir up big waves!?
In the future, when Li Tang’s order comes, who dares to surrender without looking for the wind!?
"Your Highness," Xia Yu said a little anxiously: "Qi Shanxing doesn't have anything to worry about, and Queen Cao doesn't have anything to worry about, and the fake prince Dou Xiao is only fourteen or five years old, let alone anything to worry about!"
"But these three people are flags that can command the old troops of the puppet Xia Dynasty and win over the people of Hebei."
"Moreover, Liu Heitao, who stayed in Mingzhou, is even more heroic than Dou Jiande."
"To put it bluntly, in the entire Tang Dynasty, only His Highness and the Crown Prince can barely suppress this person, and the rest are no match for him."
"Once Liu Heitai is allowed to hold the emperor hostage to command the princes, it will surely set fire to a prairie fire."
"By then, if the Tang Dynasty wants to pacify this person, I am afraid that it will have to pay ten times or even a hundred times the price of Hulao Pass. It will be too late to regret it!"
As soon as Xia Yu said these words, everyone in the tent was stunned.
Li Shimin was greatly shocked and said in disbelief: "If we go by what the military advisor said, is Liu Heitai more powerful than Dou Jiande?"
Xia Yu thought for a while and said with a serious face: "In my opinion, Liu Heita is ten times better than Dou Jiande!"
In history, Liu Heitai's rebellion led to the defeat of many famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, including Li Shentong, Luo Yi, and Li Shiji!
There are also brilliant achievements in capturing brothers Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche alive, and killing two super generals, Luo Shixin and Li Daoxuan!
Therefore, Xia Yu believes that Liu Heitai is the biggest stumbling block to Li Tang's pursuit of success in the world!
Everyone was horrified. They didn't expect Xia Yu to speak so highly of Liu Heitai!
When Li Shimin thought that Xia Yu was sure of what he said, he couldn't sit still.
In history, Li Ertong's shoes can become an emperor through the ages and be famous for generations. The greatest advantage is that he has the courage to accept advice and knows his mistakes are hard to correct.
"If it hadn't been for the military advisor's warning, I would have missed something important!"
Li Shimin immediately admitted his mistake and asked the generals on his left and right: "Generals, who is willing to go through the trouble of chasing these three people!"
"Your Highness," Zhang Gongjin stood up hurriedly and said, "The general has done nothing since he surrendered. Today I would like to share your worries and capture these three people!"
"Your Highness, I am also willing to go." Qin Qiong, who has always been loyal and diligent, and Zhai Changsun also stood up.
Seeing that they were a step too late, the others had no choice but to give up. With this little credit, we couldn't just grab it with a bunch of people.
Li Shimin was very happy, but hesitant as to who should be sent.
Xia Yu said at this time: "Your Highness, I think we can let Qin Qiong be the leader and Zhang Gongjin be the deputy, each with 500 cavalry, one man and three horses, and go to pursue him!"
Li Shimin trusted Xia Yu very much and nodded immediately: "I will do as the military advisor said."
"Nuo." Qin Qiong and Zhang Gongjin were very happy to hear this and hurriedly said: "I will obey your Highness's military advisor's orders."
Xia Yu stepped forward and came to Zhang Gongjin: "General Gongjin."
"Military advisor." Zhang Gongjin quickly clasped his fists and said respectfully, "What are your orders?"
Although most of the time, military commanders and civil servants always disliked each other and did not deal with each other, Zhang Gongjin did not dare to be disrespectful to a strange person like Xia Yu.
"Although I have just met Gong Jin for the first time, I have always known that you are loyal, diligent, and capable of being a general. This pursuit will be fruitful."
Hearing Xia Yu's words, the tent fell silent.
Everyone exchanged glances quickly. Everyone knew that Xia Yu's mouth was like a miraculous one, and no one missed it.
No one expected that Xia Yu would have such a high opinion of the newly minted Zhang Gongjin.
Li Shimin even planned in his heart that he would pay attention to Zhang Gongjin in the future.
Zhang Gongjin instantly felt the subtle change in the atmosphere in the tent, and couldn't help but be very moved. This was the rhythm of Bole!
"Please rest assured, military advisor, I will not let those three people escape!" Zhang Gongjin, who was so moved, swore, patting his chest.
"Okay, I believe Gong Jin." Xia Yu nodded with satisfaction: "It's just that all the horses under Gong Jin's command were used to lure the enemy. Are the horses enough now?"
"Uh-" Zhang Gongjin scratched his head and then remembered the difficulty.
"It's okay." Li Shimin immediately said: "In this battle, nearly 10,000 war horses were captured. I'd like to be honest, you just go and pick them."
"No." Zhang Gongjin was overjoyed: "Then the general will take his leave."
Immediately, Qin Qiong and Zhang Gongjin clasped their fists and left in a hurry without waiting for dinner.
"Military advisor." Zhai Changsun looked resentful and hesitated to speak.
In this Eastern Expedition, because of Xia Yu's prophecy, he failed to capture even one of his main attacks. Yuchi Gong was afraid that something would happen to him, so he always asked him to stay in the rear.
This time, even the pursuit mission was not his part.
If it continues like this, how can he make meritorious deeds?
"Uh--" Xia Yu certainly knew what Zhai Changsun meant, and comforted him helplessly: "General Zhai, don't think too much. Once you pass this level, you will have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds in the future."
Although he has been changing history, although this Eastern Expedition is almost over.
However, Xia Yu still didn't dare to be careless, for fear that a small oversight might cause the fierce general Zhai Changsun to die again due to some combination of circumstances.
"Okay." Zhai Changsun had no choice but to sit down helplessly.
Xia Yu turned her head again and said to Li Shimin: "Your Highness, please take a step to speak."
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, looked at the food that had just been brought in, and said with a smile: "Why are you in such a hurry? It won't be too late after the meal, military advisor."
"There's no rush, let's chat first."
"Okay." Seeing Xia Yu's serious face, Li Shimin did not dare to neglect, so he and Xia Yu moved into the back tent, leaving everyone with surprised faces.
