Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Taiping Taoist fled back to Wuwei and gave Li Gong another idea.  Let Li Gong immediately lead his army to the west. While Ge Shuhan was still on the road, he rushed to Guazhou City, where the Hexi Governor's Office was located, and captured Guazhou with lightning speed. More than 10,000 Guazhou defenders surrendered.  .

    Li Gong led his army to move to Guazhou. Since then, his self-established puppet Tang regime has owned most of the territory in Hexi and commanded an army of more than 30,000 people. For a time, it became aggressive and assumed a posture of attacking the Central Plains and regaining the Tang Dynasty.  .

    Ge Shuhan fled to Ganzhou and gathered more than 10,000 remaining soldiers to prepare to confront Li Gong's rebels.

    But the situation in Hexi was over, and Ge Shuhan was helpless.

    Although the situation is improving, Li Gong's heart is not stable.

    He knew very well that not to mention Zhang Xu¨¡n leading an army to attack, even if it was Yang Lian from Qinghai, if the 40,000 troops came out in full force, it would be a piece of cake to destroy Li Qi.

    "Besides, there is the Western Region behind him. Feng Changqing is Zhang Xu¨¡n's absolute confidant. Feng Changqing may attack Hexi with troops from Anxi at any time, making Li Gong uneasy day and night.

    At this time, Li Yu led more than a hundred members of the Li Tang royal family to Guazhou.

    Lei Wanchun led an army of 10,000 soldiers to return to Hexi and stationed himself in Lingzhou City, but did not attack Hexi.

    Li Gong did not welcome the arrival of Li Yu and others.  Because Li Yu is the orthodox royal family and once served as emperor. If the Tang Dynasty is restored, supporting Li Yu to restore him to the throne is the right way.  But Li Geng had evil intentions to restore the Tang Dynasty. How could he give Li Yu the inheritance he had obtained in vain.

    But when people like Li Yu arrived, he had to welcome them.  After all, he was under the banner of restoring the Tang Dynasty, and he also relied on the influence of Li Yu and other Li Tang royal families to add some chips to his hegemony.

    Li Yu has been in Guazhou for many days, but Li Qi has not seen him because he is busy with military affairs.

    Taiping Taoist saw Li Heng frowning and thinking, he smiled and said, "My lord, although Li Yu was once an emperor, it is no longer the past. They came to Guazhou to pray for my lord's protection. They are just bereaved dogs, and lord  This is the Li Tang royal family¡¯s Zhengshuo!¡±

    "Therefore, Pindao thinks that the lord should not take it to heart. Instead of dragging him away, it is better to see him once and confer him with the title of a prince to see if he recognizes him. Everything will be lost if he doesn't recognize him.  Don't be polite."

    Taiping Taoist¡¯s eyes were cold and stern, and his voice was sinister.

    Li Gong nodded and sneered, "Li Yu and his son are the sinners of the Li Tang royal family. The thousands of miles of mountains and rivers conquered by our ancestors are lost from their hands. I can take them in. It is considered a great grace. Come on, Xuan  Li Yu comes to see you!"

    To be honest, before Li Yu brought his people to Guazhou, he had a bit of luck in his heart, thinking that Li Gong might give him the throne, and then he would use Li Gong's power to restore the country.  But when I arrived in Guazhou, I suddenly realized that my idea was too naive.

    Not only did Li Gong have no intention of giving up his throne, he also didn't want to see them.  I haven't seen him for several days in a row, which in itself is enough to explain a lot of problems.

    Li Yu gritted his teeth and endured it, knowing that he no longer had to hope for the throne. What he could hope for now was to save his wealth and life. If Li Gong could defeat Zhang Xu¨¡n and restore Li Tang's world in the future, he could at least become a prince.

    "Li Yu comes to see you!" A arrogant call came from Li Heng's main hall.

    Li Yu gritted his teeth, smiled respectfully, and strode in.

    Li Yu hesitated for a moment, then bowed and said, "Li Yu pays homage to Your Majesty!"

    You can imagine the humiliation in Li Yu's heart at this moment.  After Li Tang was destroyed, he had bowed to Zhang Xu¨¡n and Li Ran successively and called him "Your Majesty".  As a former emperor of the Tang Dynasty, this huge contrast is unparalleled.

    Li Gong was startled.  He didn't expect that Li Yu would lower his stance so low and take the initiative to surrender.

    He also didn¡¯t want to think about it. Li Yu was almost a prisoner now. If he didn¡¯t understand the situation, his life would be hard to save. In order to save his life, it wouldn¡¯t matter if he became a minister.

    Having said that, he would rather surrender to Li Gong, who is also a member of the Li Tang royal family, than bow down to Zhang Xu¨¡n, who he considers to be a rebellious person.

    Li Gongzhi smiled proudly and said, "No need to be polite. You and I are both part of the royal family of Li Tang. Now that the traitors are in charge of the country, you and I should join hands to restore our ancestors' heritage! Come, please sit down and announce me one by one.  According to the decree, Li Yu canonized as King of Chu and Governor of Wuwei."

    "Your Majesty, Li Yu, thanks the Lord for your kindness!" Li Yu bowed down, but when he stood up, he suddenly woke up and his face changed suddenly.

    Li Gong made him the Grand Governor of Wuwei. Doesn't this mean that he will lead the army to guard Wuwei and provide him with a barrier against Zhang Xu¨¡n's army in Hexi?

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? but all the major generals in Wuwei¡¯s army heard that Zhang Xu¨¡n was about to lead a personal expedition. If a large army came, Wuwei would hardly be able to maintain it.Li Gong asked him to go to Wuwei, how was it different from sending him off?

    But at this moment, how dare Li Yu say no.  He was the meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by Li Gong.

    Sure enough, Li Gong chuckled and said, "King Chu, I heard that you are both civil and military and worthy of being a general.

    "Let's do this. I will give you two thousand soldiers and horses, together with the Wuwei garrison, to guard Hexi for me and defend Yanglian in Qinghai."  Don't worry, within three months at most, I will raise a large army, start from Guazhou, and restore the Central Plains!  "

    "I obey the order!" Li Yu's face was pale, he forced a smile and knelt down to accept the order.

    Li Yu left in a hurry, and the Taiping Taoist smiled and said to Li Gong: "Your Majesty is wise. In order to protect himself, Li Yu will do his best to maintain the power of the army and defend the door for Your Majesty. He was once the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he must have been the emperor once the banner was raised.  There will be some troops loyal to the Li Tang royal family to defect to us."

    Li Gong smiled proudly, but then he sighed, "Military advisor, I have few soldiers and generals, so it is difficult for me to fight against Zhang Xu¨¡n's army. If Zhang Xu¨¡n's army attacks, I don't think this Hexi area can be defended."  , we still have to make long-term plans.¡±

    "Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Taiping Taoist waved his hand, "The barbarians in Anxi are restless. The soldiers and horses of Anxi under the title of Changqing are stationed in Anxi and are unable to advance eastward. As for Yang Lian and Zhang Xu¨¡n's army, Pindao has sent people to contact Tibet.  People, please send troops from the Tubo people to fight with our army against Zhang Xu¨¡n!"

    "The Tubo people have no choice but to send troops to fight with me, otherwise they will have no choice but to perish. Our army and the Tibetan soldiers and horses are united together, with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, which is enough to compete with Zhang Xu¨¡n.

    If you retreat, you can defend Hexi, and if you advance, you can plot the Central Plains!  "

    "Even before Zhang Xu¨¡n's army arrived, our army could unite with the Tubo people to eat Yang Lian's 40,000 troops, connect Qinghai and Hexi, and then help Tubo to help each other. What's the point of Zhang Xu¨¡n?"

    Taiping Taoist has a calm expression and talks eloquently.

    Li Gong¡¯s eyes lit up, but then he sighed again.

    Taiping Taoist glanced at him and knew that he was still a little afraid of Zhang Xu¨¡n and did not have much confidence in his heart.  Even if he unites with Tubo, he may not be able to defeat Zhang Xu¨¡n.

    "Your Majesty, the worst outcome is that our army cannot stop Zhang Xu¨¡n's army. If this is the case, Tubo will also be defeated and subjugated. At that time, Your Majesty can also lead his army to retreat to the Western Regions and destroy Feng Changqing in Anxi, and then  Occupy the Western Region, rely on the land of the Western Region, unite with the cannibals, and form a country of its own in the Western Region."

    "The barbarians in the Western Region are nothing but scattered sand, and the country with many city walls is nothing more than a small land. If you want to destroy the Western Region, it will be a piece of cake for Your Majesty."

    Li Qi's eyes lit up. In fact, he also had the idea of ??retreating to the Western Regions or even joining the cannibals.  The Western Regions seemed to be in the hands of the Anxi Protectorate, but in fact the situation was extremely complex and chaotic. Li Gong felt that if he led his army to retreat to the Western Regions, it would not be difficult to destroy the Hus and gain a foothold.

    Taiping Taoist glanced at Li Gong and sighed secretly in his heart. This Li Gong was timid and timid. He started to have stage fright even before he started fighting. How could such a person achieve great things?

    Taiping Taoist could not help but feel very disappointed, and suddenly he had the intention of quitting.

    With this thought, it begins to grow wildly like weeds in spring, out of control.

    At this time, Emperor Zhang Xu¨¡n, who was far away in Luoyang, Beijing, issued an imperial edict against thieves and decided to go on a personal expedition.

    March 13th of the second year of Yongning.

    Zhang Xu¨¡n gathered troops at the school field outside Zhongjing City and personally served as the general marshal in the fight against thieves. He appointed Guo Ziyi as deputy marshal, General Shence Nan Jiyun as the left-wing forward, General Shenwu Li Siye as the right-wing forward, and General Yulin as the right-wing forward.  Zhang Tong was the general manager of the army and led one hundred thousand elite troops to attack the bandits.

    Su Hudong and Li Tengkong led the alliance as female army generals.  Female soldiers accompanying the army have become a unique scenery in the army.

    Today, a huge crowd of ordinary people and merchants came out of the capital to see him off, crowding both sides of the road. Most of them came to see the heroic female soldiers.

    Zhang Xu¨¡n put on a suit of armor and was about to mount his horse and leave the city under the protection of the Eighteen Iron Guards. Queen Cui Ying took the harem concubines out of the palace. Cui Ying's eyes were red. Even though she was extremely reluctant to part with her, as a queen, she could not  cry.  The emperor went on a personal expedition and cried unluckily.

    "I wish your majesty has returned triumphantly!" Cui Ying took the girls and bowed down.

    Zhang Xu¨¡n smiled loudly and said, "You are fine. I will be here for at least a year, Ying'er, you can rest assured and wait in Zhongjing."

    Wanchun, Third Sister Yang and Yang Yulian's bellies were already quite big. Zhang Xu¨¡n hesitated for a moment, then hurried over, smiled tenderly at the three girls and said, "When I come back, I will personally name the children in your wombs! I will definitely use my supreme honor to do so."  Congratulations on the birth of the three princes!"

      The concubines of Xinna stood at the back of the girls and did not dare to come forward because the queen and others were in front of them.

    At this moment, Guo Fu, who was dressed in a smart outfit, strode forward, knelt down in front of Zhang Xu¨¡n, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I am also the daughter of a general, and can also lead the army in battle. I am willing to accompany you."  Your Majesty leads the army to defeat the thieves and open up new territories!"

    Zhang Xu¨¡n was startled. He knew that Guo Fushan was good at riding and shooting. After all, she was Guo Ziyi's daughter. She grew up in the army. Although her martial arts skills were not as good as Li Tengkong's, her riding and shooting skills were not much different from Su Hudong's.  .

    "Sisters Guifei Su and Concubine Li can go to war with the king, and so can my concubines. Please grant your permission!" Guo Fu seemed to have made up her mind and kowtowed to the ground.

    Zhang Xu¨¡n hesitated for a moment, pondered for a moment, then simply waved his hand and laughed, "That's alright. It's rare for Concubine Duan to be so enthusiastic about serving the country Okay, I'm sure! You also go to the female army. Today I will march in person,  The three concubines wearing armor and going into battle must be a rare event in history!" (To be continued)!  .
