Du Qi summoned all the civil and military generals under his command, announced his decision to attack Shazhou, and at the same time agreed on the strategy of sending troops. Su Dingfang took the initiative to call for battle as a vanguard, and the army went out.
In fact, during this period of time, Du Qi's people had already contacted Wei Shuyu, hoping to let Wei Shuyu work for Du Qi. However, Wei Shuyu directly refused, the reason is very simple, Wei Shuyu is the son of Wei Zheng, and even Wei Zheng stayed in Datang, so it is impossible for Wei Shuyu to betray Datang. Even if the Wei family and the Du family were related by marriage, it was impossible for Wei Shuyu to submit to Du Qi at will.
The army traveled extremely fast, and in less than two days, they had already reached the border of Shazhou. Now in Shazhou, because of Li Shimin's defeat before, there are not many troops. Even though countless soldiers from the Tang army who fled later rushed to the government of Shazhou, the strength gathered by Shazhou Governor Sun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others was only 50,000. Yu people.
Compared with Du Qi's army, this force is insignificant.
For this reason, Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng agreed that they would abandon the various places in Shazhou, guard Shazhou City with all their strength, ensure the existence of the Shazhou Government, and prevent Shazhou from falling.
Therefore, Du Qi's army entered the territory of Shazhou, and the journey went smoothly.
Never encountered any obstacles.
When the army led by Du Qi continued to march towards the sandbar, the army led by Li Ji on the other side had already come from the Tang Dynasty, entered the Longyou Road, and arrived at Shazhou City at exactly this time.
The army arrived and entered the city directly.
As soon as Li Ji entered the city, he, as the commander of the army, summoned all the civil and military officials.
Changsun Wuji was a little surprised when he saw that it was Li Jilai.
What about Lee Hyo-gong?
Because Changsun Wuji didn't get any news from Chang'an, so he didn't know Li Xiaogong's situation, so he took the lead and said: "Director Li, I don't know what kind of situation Li Xiaogong is in?"
Li Ji is now the chief of the army.
Therefore, Changsun Wuji is also called Mr. Li.
Li Ji said sternly: "Duke Qi, the king of Hejian is sick, in a trance, and unwell. The king of Hejian can't lead the army to fight, so he will command this battle in the future."
Changsun Wuji frowned, looking puzzled, and asked: "Li Xiaogong was doing well in Chang'an, why did he suddenly become in a daze, is there something tricky?"
Li Ji smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Whether there is something tricky, I don't know.
Changsun Wuji sighed when he heard the words.
On the one hand, he sighed that Li Xiaogong couldn't come and couldn't restrain Du Qi. On the other hand, Li Xiaogong cannot use Li Xiaogong's command of the army to plot against Li Xiaogong.
It was just Changsun Wuji's sigh that aroused Li Ji's determination to win.
Li Ji said directly: "Let's chat about Li Xiaogong's affairs when we have time. Closer to home, let's discuss the strategy to deal with Du Qi first. If we don't make a plan, we can easily blow up our city when Du Qi's army arrives." Door."
Changsun Wuji said: "Director Li, dealing with Du Qi is not an easy task. Du Qi is about to arrive. I think the first thing to consider is the defense of Shazhou City."
"You have never fought in Guazhou City, so you don't know how powerful Du Qi's weapons are. The city of Guazhou City has been repaired and reinforced, and it is extremely strong. It can be said to be as solid as gold."
"General gunpowder bombing, no problem."
"However, under the bombardment of Du Qi's new weapons, the gates of Guazhou City collapsed in a short time, and half of the city collapsed. We laid out the defense line for several days, and it was over in an instant."
Changsun Wuji sighed, and said: "Now that we are in Shazhou City, the situation is actually the same as in Guazhou in the past. If Du Qi's weapons cannot be contained, Shazhou City will also fall and cannot be defended."
Li Ji nodded.
He agreed with Changsun Wuji's analysis.
Furthermore, when Li Shimin summoned Li Ji in Chang'an, he personally described the situation at that time. Li Shimin personally described the situation, so Li Ji knew the specific situation.
Seeing that Li Ji knew about it, Changsun Wuji stopped talking nonsense and continued: "The key for us right now is defense. We must first defend the county seat before we have any other chances."
Li Ji shook his head and said: "If you keep it for a long time, you will lose it!"
In a word, the expression on Changsun Wuji's face was a little stiff, because Li Ji spoke too directly.
Regardless of Changsun Wuji's expression, Li Ji continued: "Duke Qi, the reason why I said that if you defend for a long time, you will lose is very simple. If we can't crack Du Qi's weapon, no matter how we arrange it, the city cannot be defended.; There was a smile on Li Ji's face.
Whether it is Changsun Wuji or Wei Zheng, their status in the court is actually much higher than that of Li Ji. Li Ji commanded the army, and he was also worried that the two would not cooperate. Now that they are willing to help, it is best.
Li Ji immediately made arrangements and subdivided the tasks. After everything was arranged, Li Ji changed the subject: "Duke Qi and Minister Wei, Your Majesty has returned to Chang'an. Are you two planning to go back after this battle is over, or when will you return to the court?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Let's talk after this battle is over."
Wei Zheng also said: "There is His Majesty and Prime Minister in the court, so there won't be any problems. On the contrary, Qi Guogong and I stayed at the front line. Although we can't fight the enemy, at least we can help you."
Li Ji said seriously: "Thank you very much."
Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng shook their heads, they stopped talking to Li Ji, and immediately got up to arrange the next thing. Time is running out, they must hurry up, and there is not much time left for them now. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
