Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

"This"

After rushing into the city gate, Liu Hongji was surprised by the scene inside.

There were not many Sui troops, and they all ran towards the rear gate, which is the west gate opposite to the attacking gate.

Tang Jun quickly captured some of the Sui Jun who wanted to escape.

"what happened?"

Not to mention Liu Hongji, even Li Yuan was instantly dumbfounded when he saw the scene in the city.

"Subordinates don't know."

Liu Hongji stammered.

He is also considered a veteran with a lot of experience, and he rarely sees such a scene.

You must know that not long ago, the defenders of Xihe City took the initiative to attack with bows and arrows.

"kill!"

On Li Yuanba's side, he went madly to kill the remaining Sui army.

He didn't care whether these Sui soldiers were captured or not.

Seeing this, Li Shimin didn't stop him.

Li Yuanba has been suppressing the fighting spirit in his heart, and sometimes he can't suppress it anymore, and he really wants to release it.

"Duke Tang!"

When everyone was in a daze, Wang Junlang, one of the generals of the Li family, walked quickly from outside the city gate.

"What's the matter?"

Li Yuan asked.

"Gao Deru and guard Wang Yao fled from the west gate, taking away the main force."

Wang Junlang replied.

In other words, Gao Deru and others completely abandoned the city and fled.

The point is, there hasn't been an offensive and defensive battle yet.

"This guy is so timid, he is still the county seat of Xihe County?"

Li Yuan's face twitched violently.

This kind of behavior of fleeing without fighting is no different from that of a coward.

"Mr. Tang, this is not surprising. After all, our army has a lot of strength, and Gao Deru knows he can't defend it."

Liu Hongji said suddenly.

"Once the offensive and defensive battle starts and our army completely surrounds Xihe City, Gao Deru will be unable to escape."

Liu Hongji made a special explanation.

"good."

Wang Junlang, Duan Zhixuan and others echoed.

"It's wrong."

Only Li Shimin frowned.

Throughout history, such people are rare.

Even if Gao Deru managed to escape, he would be punished by Tai Sui in the end.

That being the case, it is better to surrender to the Li family directly. Is it necessary to abandon the city and flee back to be punished by the Sui Dynasty?
"Father, the child feels something is wrong."

Thinking of this, Li Shimin took the initiative to speak.

"Is there something wrong with the scriptures, and the result is not obvious?"

Li Yuan asked back.

He was so disgusted with Li Shimin that he didn't even want to listen to him.

"Father, how many generals and magistrates have been like this since ancient times?"

Li Shimin continued to ask back.

"Are you questioning me?"

Li Yuan was furious.

Li Shimin's move really violated a taboo.

Singing against Li Yuan in front of everyone will cause turmoil in the army.

The commander-in-chief of the army is beyond doubt.

"I"

Li Shimin also realized this, and was instantly dumbfounded.

"Forget it, it seems that the right-leading commander-in-chief is not suitable for you, so you can go and be a lieutenant colonel."

Li Yuan said lightly.

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin froze on the spot as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

"Duke Tang!"

The rest of the people also opened their mouths one after another, ready to intercede for Li Shimin.

The official position of lieutenant colonel is too low for Li Shimin.

"Who dares to persuade again?"

Li Yuan shouted angrily.

When everyone heard the words, they all shut their mouths.

If he continued to intercede, he would definitely end up in the same fate as Li Shimin.

"Second brother, what's the matter, what's the difference between the captain and the governor?"

Li Yuanba asked curiously.

"No, there is no difference."

Under Li Yuan's stern gaze, Li Shimin replied with a wry smile.

"Clean up the battlefield quickly, and then come to the county to discuss important matters."

Seeing this, Li Yuan waved his sleeves and said.

"promise."

Everyone quickly took orders.

"Second Young Master, you really shouldn't be confronting Duke Tang."

After Li Yuan left, Liu Wenjing sighed.

The rest of the people who had a crush on Li Shimin shook their heads helplessly.

These people even felt that Li Shimin had changed, that he was not so calm, and instead acted impatiently.

Li Shimin has made many mistakes one after another, and cannot be compared with Li Jiancheng.

After everyone said this, they all walked towards the county mansion.

Only Li Shimin stayed where he was, clenched and clenched his fists.

He is now a lieutenant colonel and is not eligible to participate in the next negotiation.

If Li Shimin didn't go, Li Yuanba naturally wouldn't follow either.

But whether Li Yuanba went or not had no effect on the subsequent events.

Li Yuanba's role was only to charge and kill the enemy generals.

"I have to calm down, my father won't listen to my advice at all."

Li Shimin muttered.

This is not a good thing for him, nor is it for the Li family.

"Since this is the case, I will find a way to change the status quo. The lieutenant colonel is the lieutenant colonel."

Li Shimin took a deep breath.

He needs a big victory next to prove his ability.

Only in this way can he have the right to speak in the Li family.

Otherwise, Li Shimin can only survive in this status quo.

"Everyone, what do you think of the upcoming war?"

When everyone arrived, Li Yuan asked directly.

"Mr. Tang, Xihe County has been completely captured by our army. Now Bingzhou is under our control except for the northern part."

Wang Junlang spoke first.

"Yes, and our army's rapid victory this time may allow those vacillating families to join in."

Liu Hongji agreed.

This big victory is really important to the Li family.

After all, this is the first battle after the rise of the army, and it is related to the prestige and momentum of the Li family.

"Ah."

Li Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

"Duke Tang, my subordinates have a suggestion."

Pei Ji said at this moment.

"Say."

Li Yuan nodded his head.

"We can fight fast, kill Huoyi directly, and then enter Chang'an through the dragon gate from Huoyi!"

Pei Ji had a clear mind and pointed out several locations on the map.

"This is the fastest route, but the Sui army also has guards."

Li Yuan hesitated.

"Duke Tang, don't forget, we still have reinforcements in Guanzhong."

Pei Jirao said meaningfully.

"What reinforcements?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan squinted his eyes and asked.

"The rebel Sun Hua, as well as Feng Yi's prefect Xiao Zao, and Huo Yi's major families."

Pei Ji said.

"Yes, how did I forget?"

Li Yuan reacted instantly.

These people are on good terms with the Li family, and as long as they release the news that Xihe County has been quickly conquered, they can be drawn over.

What's more, Sun Hua and others are forces cultivated by the Li family before.

"What do you guys think about this?"

Li Yuan asked others.

"Subordinates, there is no objection."

Everyone replied one after another.

The reason for choosing to start from Huoyi has already been made clear, so why hesitate?

"Okay, since that's the case, everyone will rest in Xihe City for a day, and leave for Huoyi tomorrow."

Li Yuan directly made up his mind.

"promise."

The crowd responded.

Huo Yi's battle is equally important. If they win successfully, the Li family's momentum will become even more violent.

But everyone in Li Tang couldn't imagine that they had already fallen into the trap, and so did other families who had good relations with the Li family.
