If Li Mi hadn't been facing a formidable enemy, Xu Ziling might have immediately asked Du Yu for a duel.
At this moment, "Report!" A spy rushed in with sweat dripping from his back: "Li Tianfan's army attacked fiercely. Five generals, Xu Shiji, Wang Bodang, Qin Shubao, Luo Shixin and Cheng Yaojin, took turns leading their elite troops to attack. Our defense line It¡¯s almost unbearable.¡±
"Bang!" Shang Xiuxun stood up in a heroic manner without showing off her appearance. She cupped her hands to Li Xiuning and said, "Princess Xiuning, just sit still. I will take the people to kill Li Tianfan and then I will come."
She turned to Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling and scolded: "You two fire-headed soldiers who are just living a leisurely life, why don't you go into battle with me?"
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling admired Shang Xiuxun very much. Kou Zhong also coveted Pegasus Ranch, so he was naturally willing to oblige and agreed immediately.
Li Xiuning¡¯s beautiful eyes were fixed on Yu Wenyu, who was eating and drinking, and he said in a manly voice: "If I remember correctly, General Yuwen also said that there is a third gift, I wonder what it is?"
Everyone¡¯s eyes met on Du Yu again.
Du Yu stood up slowly and walked to Shang Xiuxun. He held Shang Xiuxun's celestial chin with one hand and a glimmer of light shot out of his eyes: "The third gift is myself! I will definitely bring victory to Pegasus Ranch." Man! I came here all the way to prevent Pegasus Ranch from falling into the hands of Li Mi, let alone the owner of Xiu Xun."
Shang Xiuxun didn¡¯t expect that this person would say such words so frankly in public, which would make her daughter¡¯s family embarrassed to death. A strange feeling suddenly arose in her heart.
This person came thousands of miles away and took a big risk, but it was for himself?
Shang Xiuxun suddenly had a peach blossom look on his face and his face was hot. He suddenly broke free from Du Yu's clutches and stood up. He took a deep breath and walked outside without saying a word.
Shang Peng, Shang He and other masters immediately followed him out. Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other helplessly and followed.
Everybody can see it. Shang Xiuxun was shy.
Kou Zhong said angrily: "Xiao Ling, the two of us came all the way to save the ranch. Why did Yu Wensu act so carelessly and touch the heart of the beautiful ranch owner, while you and I are still regarded as the source of fire?" Army? Just a fire-headed army who knows martial arts and is useful."
Xu Ziling smiled bitterly and said: "It's obviously your idea to take advantage of others and the ranch, so don't drag me into it. But this should be a matter of status."
"Status?" Kou Zhong called Chong Tianqu. Holding Xu Ziling's neck: "We Xiaoling, after all, are the heroes who killed Ren Shaoming. Who in the world doesn't want to recruit us? If we are willing to join dad, half of Jianghuai will belong to us. Hehe, I see the beauty field Lord, I still have love for you.¡±
Xu Ziling bumped his elbow into Kou Zhong's ribs and said angrily: "I told you not to pull me out. We just have great potential and were recruited. But Yu Wenyu already has Luoyang and 100,000 troops and horses in his hands. It's a decision. The leader of the world has come to rescue the beauty, but he has taken the lead and given three gifts, and he is shameless enough to offer himself as a gift. How can you compare the two of you, a poor boy, if you don't like her? "
Kou Zhong was discouraged for a while: "How about we leave?"
Xu Ziling said calmly: "If you want to leave, you can go alone. I must keep this place, and I can't let the tragedy of Eleven City happen in Pegasus Ranch."
Kou Zhong stood up and said: "That's right! Let's show Yu Wenyu and the beauty owner, who is the hero? Who is the bear?"
Du Yu finished his last glass of wine. He nodded to Li Xiuning and turned around to walk outside where the war was raging.
Li Xiuning caught up two steps and whispered: "General Yuwen, I have something to ask."
Du Yu felt happy.
It seems that by letting Li Xiuning go and sowing the seeds of doubt, the seeds of doubt have finally come to fruition.
The identity of "Li Shimin" aroused Li Xiuning's suspicion.
"I went back this time and observed carefully that my second brother is indeed very different." Li Xiuning said sadly: "He has become a lot more lustful. There are many more women of unknown origins in the house. They are evil and evil, and they always make people feel What a terrible feeling.¡±
Chai Shao said in a deep voice: "That's right. According to our secret investigation, these women actually have the background of the Yinkui sect. Yuwen, you said that Shimin colluded with the Yinkui sect. It is indeed not unreasonable."
This information also greatly exceeded Du Yu¡¯s expectations.
That "Li Shimin" actually colluded with the Yin Kui faction?
I seem to be the villain, right?
??Yinkui Sect, why are you looking for Li Shimin?
If so, the problem will be much more serious.
"Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty issued four orders to deal with the Li clan. Is there any countermeasures currently in place?" Du Yu also wanted to know what was going on with the Li clan.
Chai Shao said happily: "That foolish king actually wanted to trap my father-in-law, how could we be fooled? General Yuwen didn't know anything. My father-in-law had already raised the flag of righteousness in Taiyuan 10 days ago and announced the ten major crimes of Emperor Sui Yang. Make yourself king!"
"What about the three-pronged army?" Du Yu did not expect that Li Yuan had such courage, and that account book actually forced him to rebel in advance.
"This is all thanks to the second brother." Li Xiuning looked complicated: "He first contacted Xue Ju, the overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty, and promised him a lot of profits, so he ordered Xue Ju to sneak attack Chang'an. Although Xue Ju's 150,000 troops attacked the city under the strong city of Chang'an, After several days, they failed to break through and had to retreat, but this also frightened the courage of Yang You, who was staying in Chang'an. He hurriedly ordered the Sui army to march towards Taiyuan to return to Chang'an and could only defend Fenglingdu, a crossing of the Yellow River. "
"What about the troops of Yingyang General Liu Wuzhou and Wuwei General Liang Shidu?" Du Yu looked solemn.
"It was my father-in-law who took Brother Shimin's advice and surrendered to the Turkic Khan, handed over a huge bribe and asked the Khan to come forward." Chai Shao smiled bitterly.
Du Yu immediately understood what "Li Shimin" was thinking.
Yingyang General Liu Wuzhou, Wuwei General Liang Shi, and the future hero Song Jingang. All forces that raise troops in the north will look at the face of the Turks. Because the Turks were powerful at this time, even worse than the Xiongnu in the early Han Dynasty, they often threatened the borders.
When the Sui Dynasty was still in power, the Turks did not dare to invade, but the country fell apart and war broke out, and the Turks immediately became the most powerful force in the north.
General Yingyang Liu Wuzhou and General Wuwei Liang Shidu appear to be generals of the Sui Dynasty, but in fact they are puppets of the Turks. The Turkic Khan ordered them not to attack the Li clan. Like two dogs, they obediently returned to their lair.
In fact, in order to get rid of the situation of being besieged, Li Clan, who professed tribute to the Turks, was also the same raccoon dog. He bowed before the Turks and was willing to be the emperor.
In this way, with the help of "Li Shimin"'s diplomatic means, Taiyuan Li Clan easily eliminated the anger of the Emperor of Sui Yang by spending some gold and silver on his children.
"Li Shimin's" intellectual and combat talents are evident, and he is undoubtedly his biggest thorn in the side.
What¡¯s even more frightening is that he actually contacted the Yin Kui sect and didn¡¯t know what he exchanged for it, but he did get the support of the Yin Kui sect. On the surface, relying on Li Shimin's original reputation and connections, he could also get the support of decent martial arts masters such as Shi Feixuan and Ning Daoqi.
Du Yu deeply felt that the situation was serious.
Although he is now in Luoyang and has become the overlord of one party, he is surrounded by Li Mi, Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei, Li Zitong, Xiao Xian and other heroes. He cannot move even an inch, so he is the target of public criticism.
But this "Li Shimin", with the advantages of familiarity with history and plot, and the support of black and white, can sit back and watch the success or failure of the world, and turn his hands into clouds and rain. I believe that Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, Dai Wang and others are no match for him.
Don¡¯t forget, ¡°Li Shimin¡± also knows the news that Yang Gong¡¯s treasure house is at Yuema Bridge in Chang¡¯an!
Du Yu broke into cold sweat.
Taiyuan is only a few days away from Chang'an. With the courage of Chang'an's left-behind and acting king Yang You, how can he defeat "Li Shimin"?
Once "Li Shimin" is allowed to capture Chang'an, it will be equivalent to handing over Yang Gong's treasure house to him!
Du Yu complained in his heart.
Why didn¡¯t I think of it earlier?
He secretly made up his mind that no matter what the outcome of this battle was, he would get up immediately, go to Chang'an, and take out Yang Gong's treasure house before "Li Shimin" could.
Chai Shao further introduced: "Although Brother Shimin has never been valued by his father-in-law, his contribution was too great, so he had to be granted a title and allowed him to build a palace. With Brother Shimin's talents and good reputation, many famous ministers and generals have joined him. There were Changsun Wuji, Yuchi Jingde, Pang Yu, etc. who came to join him, and his power increased greatly. He had already established the Tiance Mansion to handle the secret military affairs. He originally invited me to join him, but unfortunately, after I learned his details, he gradually became more powerful. Alienated him."
Li Xiuning never imagined that the benefactor in front of him would actually think about so many things. He said with a small face: "So, the second brother has become the Optimus Prime of the Li clan at this time, and we are also very embarrassed. If you report the second brother to your father, I, the Li clan, will be here The heroes and Turks are coveting him, and he will be destroyed soon. And if he is not reported, his behavior will become more and more weird, and he will become more and more hostile to Jiancheng and Yuanji, which makes me very scared. "
Du Yu was satisfied after hearing so much information, and said with a wry smile: "Sister Xiuning, I don't have a good idea, but I think you can control the balance."
"Balance?" Li Xiuning's beautiful eyes lit up.
"Yes!" Du Yu smiled: "Li Shimin is too powerful, so you will turn to Li Jiancheng.Li Yuanji, contain him. As long as his power does not reach the point where he can eliminate several brothers in one fell swoop, there will be no civil strife in the Li clan. "
Li Xiuning thought of the tragic scene of brothers fighting in the same room, and her face turned pale with fear, and she nodded in agreement.
Du Yu caused trouble for "Li Shimin" again. He smiled, turned around and walked out.
As soon as he came to the battlefield, he devoted all his attention to the war. He was extremely focused and nothing could distract him.
At this time, with Shang Xiuxun, Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, Shang Peng and other masters participating in the battle, the first wave of Li Tianfan's master group's offensive on the city has gradually come to a standstill, but the battle is still going on.
Du Yu slowly walked up the city wall. (To be continued)
