When Li Hongyu and Wu Ma took care of Li Gui and prepared to turn around to support Li Jing, something unexpected happened to Li Jing, but not too unexpected - his northern neighbor Liu Wu went south on Monday and destroyed Li Yuan's hometown of Jinyang City.
.
That's right, Liu Wuzhou also moved his family to Jinyang, intending to live there permanently.
When Liu Wuzhou came, Li Yuanji, the third son of Li Yuan, was still guarding Jinyang City.
This man spends 80% of his time eating, drinking, having fun, outings and hunting, so it is not surprising that he lost Jinyang City.
What was unexpected was that Li Yuanji's running posture was too weird - before Liu Wuzhou could reach Jinyang City, Li Yuanji abandoned the generals and people in the city and fled south with a group of ladies. He was still chewing when he left.
A few pieces of cheese showed that I wasn't too panicked.
Pei Ji, who then rushed to the rescue, commanded several failed battles, and was called back by Li Yuan without even winning a single battle. Pei Ji was actually reluctant to go back, but Li Yuan wrote to him and told him: Now that he can go back, he can still rescue him.
If we continue to lose, although we have a good relationship, public outrage will be hard to quell, and I’m afraid I’ll have to behead you before I can answer the question.
From then on, Liu Wuzhou held Jinyang, and sent his general Song Jingang all the way south to attack the city and plunder the territory. The killings were vigorous. At one time, there were only a few hundred miles away from Chang'an City. There was panic in the palace, and there were voices one after another urging Li Yuan to move the capital south.
, there was a sound of frogs.
At this time of crisis, Comrade Li Jing fully demonstrated his charisma as the future military god of the Tang Dynasty. With the help of his unnoticed surprise troops, he pretended to besiege Jinyang City, attracting Song Jingang to turn around and rush to help, and took advantage of the other party's hurry to attack Jinyang City.
, fought a beautiful ambush battle.
In the chaos of the army, Song Jingang was once forced to use his forbidden spell awakening technique [Earth Shakes and Mountains Shake].
It was a pity that he had already used this awakening technique once before when he attacked Jinyang City. This time he used it a little hastily, and his energy had not yet recovered, which caused the previous spell to take too long. Before the awakening technique could be activated, Song Jingang
Being shot by Li Jing gave me a chill.
What I didn't expect was that after Song Jingang died, [The Earth Shakes and the Mountains Shake] was successfully summoned.
Without the control of the master Song Jingang, the earth trembled and the mountains shook, showing an indiscriminate attack by all beings equally. Even due to a combination of circumstances, the attack on one's own army was more violent and ruthless than the attack on the Tang Dynasty's army.
Almost half of Song Jingang's team fell into the cracks in the ground created by [Earthquakes and Mountains Shake] and died, while the remaining half were pinched to death when the ground was stitched together.
All in all, Li Jing simply defeated Song Jingang and wiped out his entire army, then turned around and captured the defenseless Jinyang City.
In the list that Wu Ma gave to Li Hongyu, there was a general named Yuchi Gong who was captured alive in this battle. After Li Hongyu found out, he was very satisfied.

Liu Wuzhou fled north to the Turks with hundreds of his bodyguards. The Turks took him in at first, but later they thought he had a big appetite and could eat two hundred sheep in one winter.
That night, Liu Wuzhou got drunk, pushed into the dung pile behind the sheepfold, and drowned.
When the news of Liu Wuzhou's death spread, the Turks also said that Liu Wuzhou fell in after drinking too much, and it was definitely not us Turks who killed the donkey.
After Wu Ma heard the news, he wondered if the cesspool Liu Wuzhou fell into might contain his own excrement.
After all, he stayed in the Turks for a long time and visited many places. The Turks are lazy and very dirty, and they are not very diligent in cleaning their feces. Therefore, the feces that drowned Liu Wuzhou may have contained dancing horses.
It also means that the dancing horse contributed to Liu Wuzhou's death.
Wu Langjun should be credited with killing Liu Wuzhou. Later, Wu Ma wrote this in his diary.
The battle with Liu Wuzhou lasted only a few rounds, and he was intercepted by the Turks in pursuit of Liu Wuzhou. Li Jing was really not satisfied.
On the way back to Jinyang, he met up with Li Hongyu, who was on his way back and forth, and the three of them thought that although they had won two battles, they still felt that it was not interesting, so they simply took a detour and stopped by Shuofang.
He also served Master Liang, the Dadu Bijia Khan, who was watching the fun on the side.
Master Liang stood on the tower and looked at the high-morale Tang army, his legs and feet trembling a little.
He told Li Hongyu: As a distinguished guest of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Wuzhou overestimated his own strength and attacked Gui Tang Dynasty. He had nothing to do with me, Lao Liang. I, Lao Liang, have always respected the Tang Dynasty very much. Since then, several times when Khan wanted to go south to conquer, it was always because of Lao Liang.
It took Liang's mediation to persuade the Khan to stop. I hope General Li will show his favor for Lao Liang's great contribution to the stability of the northern part of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Hongyu agreed and withdrew his troops. That night he launched a general offensive and captured Shuofang.
Later, Li Hongyu learned that Master Liang had become a third-level awakened disciple not long ago, but before he could master the forbidden curse awakening technique, his head was chopped off by his own men.
All in all, Li Hongyu's army won three beautiful and great victories in a very short period of time, with extremely fruitful results and minimal battle losses. The three major threats from the north were eliminated in one pot.

The good news came back to Chang'an City one after another. Li Yuan was dumbfounded. He turned over the letter paper more than ten times and read it word by word several times. He repeatedly confirmed that this was indeed his daughter's handwriting, and then began to guess that his daughter had not
Just kidding yourself.
Soon after, Li Gui and Liang Shidu's heads were also mailed back by Li Hongyu, and Li Yuan finally felt at ease.
Li Yuan was glad that his blessed general, the god of war, was born a girl, otherwise his position as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty would have caused a bloody storm.
Precisely because Li Hongyu was born as a girl, he thought that he could safely leave the army to Li Hongyu to command in the future, and continue to fight beautiful battles without losses. He, old Li, is really capable, and he gave birth to such a sensible and capable man.
Good girl.
Li Shimin was also slightly confused.
His previous calculations were in vain. Li Hongyu was now enveloped by the aura of the goddess of battle. If he continued to force her to ask for the horse dance, Li Hongyu might wave her hand and ask Li Yuan to come to Dongdu to fight Li Mi, leaving Li Shimin to rest.
go.
Li Yuan would definitely agree to Li Hongyu's request and let Li Mi experience the terrifying aura of the battle goddess. In this way, Li Shimin would become a complete outsider.
At this point in the world's competition, there are not many opponents left for Li Shimin to prove himself, and he must not give up this opportunity in Dongdu.
So, when Li Hongyu led his army back to Chang'an City, not to mention the Chang'an people who welcomed him in the streets, nor the words written all over the streets: "Red jade, red jade, once in a thousand years" and "red jade, ruby, all run away".
The welcome slogans like "red jade, red jade, the enemy's face is green" only said that Li Shimin, his old enemy and younger brother, made a special trip back from the east capital, and stood at the city gate to give a warm welcome on behalf of Li Yuan.
The two were riding side by side. Li Hongyu asked Li Shimin: How is the war situation in Dongdu? Do you need help from your sister?
Li Shimin waved his hands repeatedly: "Liu Wenjing is enough. The fifth brother will also break through to the third level in the near future, and it will be easy to defeat Li Mi by then."
