    In the room, Ji Chuan and Li Chongjiu talked openly and honestly with each other.  £Û

    After Ji Chuan heard Li Chongjiu say that Yang Guang was defeated by the Guanlong clan because he supported the Jiangnan gentry, he thought carefully for a while, but then said: "Your Majesty, the humble minister did have some ill-thoughts just now.  But you can take a step back and don¡¯t kill them all.¡±

    Li Chongjiu immediately said: "Ji Aiqing is speaking from the bottom of her heart, how come I don't know. If I were more relaxed and open to those nobles, they would not support Li Shimin so wholeheartedly, and it would be easier to pacify Guanzhong Ziye. But do you think I am right now?  Can Da Zhao still tolerate the surrender of the Guanlong clan?"

    Himekawa fell into deep thought after hearing this.

    Li Chongjiu continued: "Although the world is vast and there are many people, there are only those people who are high above. If I allow the Guanlong clan to join in the service in the future, then the interests of the Hedong gentry, as well as the newly supported poor families and business clans, will be affected.  Loss. In fact, seizing the world is a process of redistribution of interests. Since I took the name of the year as innovation, what is innovation? Of course, it is to replace the old with the new. Just as the broken flesh and blood are not removed, how can new flesh and blood grow out?  .¡±

    "Look at those high-ranking Guanlong clan officials in the past. At first glance, they were in their prime, but in my eyes they are already dead. In the future, it will definitely not be these people who will lead me, Zhao, and China. So this time I will  I must take the opportunity of conquering the Tang Dynasty to completely dig out these rotten flesh and blood. After conquering the entire Tang Dynasty in the future, all the interests will be determined in my hands and handed over to the people of Zhao. At the same time, I also warn those who  Members of the noble clan, don¡¯t think about taking advantage of both sides. Anyone who is an enemy of our great Zhao will suffer this fate."

    After hearing what Li Chongjiu said, Ji Chuan remained silent for a long time and finally said: "Your Majesty, I understand, it is just like tearing down the old house and building a new one. This means destroying all the altars and pots, and erecting tall buildings from the ground."

    Li Chongjiu laughed loudly when he heard the words, looked into the distance and said: "Yes, it means smashing all the altars and pots. Yang Jian was born in the Guanlong clan, so after he conquered the world, he compromised too many Guanlong clans, which eventually led to his son's conquest of Goguryeo.  . The backlash of Guanlong Gate Valve, what is the use of such a gate valve. Anyway, Guanlong Gate Valve has been ruling the Central Plains for a hundred years, and now it is time to replace it with new blood. "

    Li Chongjiu knew that the biggest difference between him and Li Tang was that he was not born into a powerful family.  That's why Li Yuan didn't marry his legitimate daughter Li Zhiwan to him.  But in another situation, if he really becomes Li Yuan's son-in-law, he will never be able to hold a high position within Li Tang. This is an unbridgeable gap.

    In fact, Li Chongjiu¡¯s statement that he was either myself or the enemy was passed on to Li Tang through the heads of the three tribes in Hedong.  Within one day, officials from various places in Li and Tang resigned.  There were as many as a hundred people.  For example, Li Tang's secretary, Lang Xue Yuanjing, and Zhongshu Sheren, Liu Shi, all left without saying goodbye.  As for the generals serving in the army, several of them deserted.  They hung up their seals and left, and some even took away their own troops.  Until Li Shimin ordered a crackdown and killed several people.  This trend of escape has improved.  When Li Tang attacked Zheng, officials under Wang Shichong rebelled against Zheng and surrendered to Tang.  It almost happened again with Li Tang.

    Li Chongjiu left some leeway for the Guanlong clan and did not kill them all.  If the attack area is expanded from Li Shimin to the entire Guanlong Clan, then the battle to conquer the Tang Dynasty will probably take a few more years until the Guanlong Clan's influence in Guanzhong is completely eliminated.

    Just when Li Chongjiu was receiving the chiefs of the three tribes in Hedong, Zhao's forward army had already arrived at Tiesha Pass, an important town on the Zhi Road.

    Su Dingfang rode to explore the iron brake to close the Tang army's defense. However, once the cavalry broke through, they were shot back by a barrage of arrows.

    Su Dingfang frowned when he saw this. He came as the vanguard of Zhao State and won consecutive battles along the way, defeating seven cities of the Tang Army.  But he encountered difficulties in front of the Iron Sha Pass. The Iron Sha Pass was very difficult and dangerous. It is not an exaggeration to describe that one man can pass the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it.

    There is a gap in front of the pass. The military guide said that this gap is very narrow. When walking on weekdays, there are often cars and horses fighting for the passage here, and they fall into a ravine.

    Iron Sha Pass is so difficult to attack, but it has to be attacked because this pass guards the only way to pass on the Zhi Road.  If this pass is not captured, the Zhao army will not be able to pass.

    At this moment, a junior high school student came to report: "General Su, General Luo has arrived with his army!"

    When Su Dingfang heard that Luo Shixin had arrived, he knew that he could not monopolize the power of breaking through the Iron Sha Pass. He couldn't help but secretly cursed in his heart, why did this crazy Luo not come so early and so late, but he arrived at this time.  Fortunately, Su Dingfang and Luo Shixin were both generals of Xu Shiji's garrison. Even if the city was breached, there was no need to worry about the other party robbing them of their achievements, so Su Dingfang ordered his troops to station themselves in front of the pass.

    Soon Luo Shixin led his troops to rush?.

    When Luo Shixin saw that Tiesha Pass had not been captured by Su Dingfang, he felt reassured. He immediately came to Su Dingfang and said, "General Su, I finally caught up with you. I wonder what the military situation is like at Tiesha Pass. How many troops are stationed in Li Tang?  "

    Su Dingfang was not angry when he met Luo Shixin, but it was about the military situation. He still said truthfully: "We still don't know anything about the military situation. The Rumor Department didn't give us any information. We just know that the Iron Sha Pass is guarded by the famous Tang Army general Li Daoxuan."

    Luo Shixin heard this and said: "Isn't Li Shimin very suspicious of the Li Tang clan? Why is he still willing to use Li Daoxuan as his general?"

    "I don't know, maybe the two brothers have a good relationship." Su Dingfang guessed casually.

    Luo Shixin laughed and said: "Yeah, don't worry about it. Once you break this level, you can attack Wenxi. Brothers, get ready to eat meat!"

    When Luo Shixin called out like this, the Qingqi behind him all raised their weapons in response, obviously their morale was very high.

    "How do cavalry attack a city? Look at this road."

    Luo Shixin said indifferently: "What's wrong with the cavalry? Can't the cavalry fight on foot? Look at me."

    "How many people do you want to mobilize?"

    "Three hundred elites are enough."

    "Are you sure that you don't know how many Tang troops are in the city?"

    Luo Shixin pointed to the mountain road and said: "This Iron Sha Pass is a dangerous pass. Look at the terrain. It is difficult to transport military supplies. Besides, this pass cannot accommodate too many people, so three hundred people are enough."

    Su Dingfang secretly admired him.  Luo Shixin observed carefully and said nothing at the moment.

    Luo Shixin ordered three hundred soldiers.  They got off their horses together, borrowed a three hundred-step shield from Su Dingfang, and then said: "Don't worry, you will definitely have a share of the credit for laying down the Iron Sha Pass! But I want to take the lion's share."

    "Then I'll just wait," Su Dingfang suddenly took a step forward and said, "General Luo, please be careful and take care."

    Despite Su Dingfang¡¯s advice, Luo Shixin didn¡¯t take it seriously at all.

    At this moment, Luo Shixin's men and horses raised their shields.  They formed a turtle shell formation and headed towards the city gate.  Su Dingfang said: "I'll wait for the crossbowman to prepare and prepare to respond."

    The deputy general said: "General Luo is so proud, so let him attack the city. Wouldn't it be better to be disgraced?"

    Su Dingfang said: "Where do you put so much thought into it? If you lose, all I, Zhao, will lose."

    The deputy general immediately agreed to go down and make arrangements.

    When the Tang army at the gate saw Su Dingfang coming to attack the city, they immediately struck down arrows and rocks.

    Luo Shixin was surrounded by soldiers, holding a shield in one hand and an iron spear in the other.  Keep your head down and move forward.  The arrows above the Tang army were so dense that Zhao Jun could not even lift his head.  And the mountain pass is very narrow, only allowing five or six people to stand in front.

    Luo Shixin shouted at this time: "Brothers, the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. Follow me and fight up!"

    After Luo Shixin called out urgently, the three hundred soldiers agreed unanimously, but saw Luo Shixin leading the troops to accelerate forward.  The soldiers arrived under the city plate.  At this moment, a dozen or so famous soldiers held the robes below and jumped up to the pass.

    And the soldiers who rushed to the city plate.  Use the robe's hands and shoulders as stepping stones to kill the city.

    There are not many places to stay in the city.  Only a few dozen people could escape, and everyone was crowded into the narrow place to fight.  However, the Tang army still took advantage of the geographical advantage and blocked the low city wall, preventing the Zhao army from climbing the city wall from other places.

    Sergeant Zhao¡¯s soldiers were dragged down the city one after another. Seeing this, Luo Shixin roared and climbed up the wall with an iron gun in his hand.  The Tang army on the city wall lost half of their three souls and seven souls before they even started fighting because of Luo Shixin's shocking roar.

    Luo Shixin jumped onto the city plate, rolling the iron gun in his hand like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. However, he saw that the city bricks on the city plate were like rice noodles, and they fell into pieces under the blows of his iron gun.  Dozens of red-headed bricks flew in all directions, hitting the heads and faces of the seven or eight Tang soldiers currently there.

    A burst of smoke and dust rolled up, and in that moment, Luo Shixin was seen firing his spear repeatedly, swinging the gun and retracting it so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly.  In the blink of an eye, the red tassel on the iron gun in his hand was soaked with blood, and the iron gun pierced through the bodies of several Tang Army soldiers like piercing tofu.  The armor on their bodies had no ability to shield them from the spears.

    Luo Shixin was so eager to kill that he was even more unstoppable.

    Luo Shixin was so brave that both the enemy and our troops above and below the city couldn't help but marvel.

    Li Daoxuan, the general of the Tang Army, could not help but change his expression when he saw Luo Shixin being so brave. However, when he saw Luo Shixin and three Tang Army soldiers fighting, he suddenly had a thought in his mind and suddenly approached Luo Shixin with a dagger in his hand, and struck Luo Shixin with a sword.

    And Luo Shixin had already killed the two Tang soldiers, and the remaining one was even more excited when he saw this scene.He jumped towards Luo Shixin.

    Luo Shixin's iron spear easily pierced the opponent, but the Tang sergeant tried his best to hold on to the spear inserted in his chest. Even Luo Shixin, who was said to have divine power, could not pull out the spear.

    Luo Shixin saw Li Daoxuan sneak attack on him. At this moment, he could only avoid the sword that stabbed his vital part by throwing his gun and retreating.  But after throwing away the gun, he didn't have an iron gun. How could he resist the Tang troops coming from left and right?

    But Luo Shixin has no time to think too much, now he can only cut off his wrist.

    But just when Luo Shixin was about to release his gun, Li Daoxuan let out a muffled groan, and it turned out that an arrow suddenly hit his right arm.  The dagger in Li Daoxuan's hand was immediately thrown to the ground.

    At this time, I heard cheers from the city.

    "General Su is good at archery, and his arrows from two hundred steps away are all missed!"

    "Yes, this sneak attack dog thief, how can our General Su let you hurt our General Luo?"

    Luo Shixin knew that it was Su Dingfang who saved his life. He couldn't help but feel ashamed, so he pulled out the spear with all his strength and shot Li Daoxuan away with all his strength.

    Li Daoxuan was caught off guard and was killed by Luo Shixin with one shot!  One of Li Tang's brave generals was killed like this.

    "I have killed the enemy general Li Daoxuan, why don't you surrender quickly!" Luo Shixin killed Li Daoxuan, raised his spear and shouted in all directions.

    When the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty saw Li Daoxuan being killed, they lost all fighting spirit.  They all surrendered.  All the Zhao troops above and below the city cheered!

    After the iron brake pass was broken, Luo Shixin immediately went to Su Dingfang and said: "General Su, if you hadn't saved my life just now, I, Luo, would have died long ago. Please forgive me for my arrogance before."

    Su Dingfang said: "We all serve under General Xu, so you don't have to be polite. It's just the feat of destroying the city"

    "Other matters are easy to discuss, but war achievements are out of the question!" Luo Shixin decisively refused.

    Su Dingfang laughed and said: "Okay, then it will be half between you and me."

    Luo Shixin thought for a while and said: "Sure, let's do it!" But he still said it in a clear-cut tone.

    In the evening, Li Chongjiu had already learned the news of the capture of Tiesha Pass ahead.

    The good news was also in his hands. General Li Daoxuan of the Tang Army was killed by Luo Shixin with one shot.  All 300 Tang troops in the city surrendered, but Tiesha Pass only held on for less than half an hour under the attack of fierce general Luo Shixin.

    Li Chongjiu had no doubts about Luo Shixin's strength at all, but another victory report sent back by the military supervisor contained a different record.

    Li Chongjiu knew that Luo Shixin was in danger when he attacked the city. Fortunately, he saved his life and was not injured.  But for Li Chongjiu, he couldn't help but be afraid of the ten iron brakes.  In Li Chongjiu's eyes, he could not be compared with a general like Luo Shixin.

    Historically, Luo Shixin was too fierce and defended Mingshui City. In the end, the majestic tiger general died under the city.

    But the interesting thing is that it saved his life.  It was actually Su Dingfang.  Li Chongjiu remembered that in Tang novels, Luo Cheng, the prototype of Luo Shixin, died at the hands of Su Dingfang.  But in another scene at the moment, Su Dingfang actually saved Luo Shixin's life.  As a result, the two formed a friendship.  This is a good thing for Li Chongjiu.

    "get off!"

    Li Chongjiu knocked on the window lightly, and the carriage slowly stopped.

    Li Chongjiu got off the carriage.  There were advancing armies on both sides.

    But I saw in the distance that the first batch of grain transport teams starting from Heyang had already arrived at the rear army.  Civil servants push the chicken bus.  Walk on the road.  In addition, there are thousands of oxcarts loaded with grain and grass, also following from behind.

    Li Chongjiu immediately asked: "Which group of people are guarding the food and grass?"

    After hearing this, the imperial guard immediately said: "It's the Yi Guards!"

    Li Chongjiu nodded and said immediately: "Transfer the five regiments of cavalry from the Imperial Guard Army and incorporate them into the Yi Guard Army to protect the army's rations."

    After hearing this, the imperial guard officer quickly said: "Your Majesty, the imperial guards are the imperial guards that protect your majesty. If we mobilize people and horses, in case"

    Li Chongjiu immediately scolded: "Only when the food road is safe can I rest assured. Otherwise, if there is no army food, even if there are millions of troops around me, it will be of no avail. In this decisive battle with Li Tang, if our army protects the food and grass, it will be half the battle."  . Let¡¯s go and let Mr. Zhang and the others come to see me.¡±

    "No!"

    Soon Zhang Xuansu, Ji Chuan, Yu Shinan and other staff arrived.

    Li Chongjiu ordered his men to spread out the map and said: "Once the Iron Sha Pass is broken, Jiangzhou will be undefeated. Our vanguard will be able to reach the city tomorrow. Where are Yuchi Jingde's men?"

    ¡°Your Majesty is here,¡± Zhang Xuansu skillfully pointed on the map, ¡°It¡¯s about 20 kilometers away from Jiangzhou.It¡¯s less than thirty miles away.  "

    "Very good, what's going on with the Tang army in Jiangzhou?"

    "Reporting to Your Majesty, there is no movement. One day before the fall of Tieshaguan, Jiangzhou has closed the city gate tightly and does not allow people to enter or exit. It seems that the Jiangzhou guard is worried about spies entering the city."

    Li Chongjiu said: "The man stationed in Jiangzhou is Duan Zhixuan, the general of Li Tang Dynasty. How about this person Yu Shinan?"

    Yu Shinan said: "This man is a pawn under Li Shimin. He has been promoted with military exploits and is very brave. This time he takes over from the former Jiangzhou general manager Xiangwu King Li Chen and becomes the general guarding Hedong for Li Tang. At present, Li Tang's Hedong army is under his account.  .¡±

    Ji Chuan added: "Hedong is the place where Li Yuan started. The Hedong Army has always been elite. In the past, it fought many battles with our Xiaowei Army stationed in Taiyuan, with both sides winning and losing. However, according to the news from the Rumor Division, Li Shimin drafted some soldiers to train the new army.  There are nearly 10,000 elite troops in the Hedong Army, but the current combat strength of the Hedong Army should not be as good as before."

    Li Chongjiu said: "So there are not enough troops in Jiangjun. It seems that Li Shimin is really planning to abandon Hedong. Reduce the troops and guard Chang'an."

    Ji Chuan sneered and said: "Wouldn't Li Tang be defeated faster? Once Jiangjun is broken, our army can march straight in. If we break Pujin Pass, we will be across the river from Chang'an."

    Li Chongjiu said: "Li Shimin is by no means a person who can be easily captured. The smooth progress of our army shows that he must have a backup plan. How is Wang Junkuo's West Route Army?"

    Yu Shinan said: "We should be attacking the Longyou area of ??Hexi, and we should be approaching Qianshuiyuan at this time. Your Majesty, Hexi and Hedong are far apart, and many messages will take more than twenty days to be conveyed. Originally, there were carrier pigeons that could  However, later Li Tang¡¯s intelligence department domesticated falcons to hunt and kill homing pigeons, which made it inconvenient to deliver messages.¡±

    Hearing what Yu Shinan said, everyone couldn't help but feel a little worried about Wang Junkuo's army in Hexi.

    Li Chongjiu said: "Wang Junkuo is my chosen general. I believe in his ability. Even if Li Shimin wants to target him, his subordinates are all cavalry. If he cannot win, it is still possible to retreat."

    Hearing what Li Chongjiu said, the generals felt at ease.

    Yu Shinan asked: "Your Majesty, will we attack Jiangjun tomorrow? Or wait for news from the West Route Army."

    Li Chongjiu slapped the map with his palm and said decisively: "Of course there is no need to wait. We will capture Jiangjun tomorrow, then go to Pujin Pass. After crossing the Yellow River, we will reach Guanzhong. The one who enters Guanzhong first will be the king!"

    Hearing Li Chongjiu say so categorically, all the ministers immediately agreed.

    Immediately, Li Chongjiu¡¯s military order was immediately delivered to the front-line generals Luo Shixin and Su Dingfang through fast horses.

    The order is very simple, the first to enter the pass is the king!  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
