Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng, who was originally depressed, suddenly raised his head.

At this moment, his dim eyes shone with light.

Hearing that it might be an opportunity to kill Yang Zhao, his breath became short of breath.

After all, Li Jiancheng's current appearance has something to do with Yang Zhao.

If you want revenge, Yang Zhao is the first choice.

"Yang Zhao!"

Li Jiancheng clenched his teeth and chanted the name.

The anger in his eyes was burning fiercely.

However, the attention of Li Shimin, Li Yuan and others was not on Li Jiancheng.

Everyone focused on how to deal with Yang Zhao.

For now, the existing troops of the Li family still have an advantage.

It is not difficult to deal with the [-] troops brought by Yang Zhao.

But there is a problem, a key point.

That is, Yang Zhao is not simple, and in several battles, he has won more with less.

Since only [-] soldiers and horses were brought this time, they might also be elite in addition to expansion.

"Shimin, even if you have a chance, you need to be cautious."

Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Mr. Tang is right."

Pei Ji and the others agreed one after another.

They were planted by Yang Zhao not long ago, and no one wanted to do it again.

If the same thing happened again, the Li family would have no hope of turning things around.

"Father, the child knows this."

Li Shimin nodded.

He has always been cautious towards Yang Zhao, especially after this big defeat.

This time, Li Shimin is bound to be cautious and focus on defense.

When the time comes, give it a fatal blow.

"Ah."

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yuan responded with satisfaction.

Obviously, Li Yuan has completely handed over the defense to Li Shimin this time.

Because Li Shimin's fighting spirit is still there, Li Jiancheng lost an arm, and he has not yet digested this fact.

"Everyone, it is now the time of life and death."

Putting away his thoughts, Li Yuan glanced at the people below and said.

After hearing this sentence, everyone's heart is heavy.

"So now the most important thing is to pull together, more than anything."

Li Yuan continued.

He was worried that if people's hearts were scattered, there would be big problems, so he said this.

"Yes, Mr. Tang is right."

The crowd joined in.

In fact, Li Yuan's worries were superfluous, Pei Ji and others were bound together with the Li family.

Even if Li Yuan didn't say anything, the others wouldn't have the thought of backing down.

Back off at this time, where do they go?

Taking refuge in the Sui Dynasty is basically not willing to be kind, and it is also seeking a dead end.

Then there is no choice but to abandon the family, or even embark on the road of escape.

Instead of this, it is better to fight to the death.

Maybe the future is bright and full of hope.

"Ah."

Li Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

"During this time, we are expanding our troops."

Li Yuan said again.

"Father, absolutely not."

At this time, Li Shimin stood up and said.

"Why?"

Li Yuan frowned and asked.

"Continuing to recruit soldiers will not recruit soldiers with strong combat effectiveness, but it will cause public resentment."

Li Shimin explained.

"Yes, Mr. Tang, this public grievance should not be underestimated."

Wen Daya said.

He is also one of Li Yuan's civil servants and has certain talents.

"Ok."

After hearing this, Li Yuan had no choice but to answer.

Since it is not easy to recruit troops, prepare for defense.

As long as these things are done well, it will be difficult for the Sui army to capture Taiyuan with [-] troops.

"Let's all go back."

After discussing these matters, Li Yuan said lightly.

"promise."

Everyone took orders and left the hall one after another.

After everyone left, the Li family immediately began to arrange staff.

One is to prepare various defense equipment, and the other is to expand troops and so on.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

On Li Shimin's side, he was also analyzing the methods Yang Zhao might use.

It can be said that even if they are only facing an army of [-], the Li family is prepared to be sloppy.

at the same time.

Yang Zhao and his [-] troops have already left the Guanzhong area.

From Guanzhong to the north, take the waterway to Jinzhou.

This route typically goes to Taiyuan.

However, the waterway is upstream, and the speed is not too fast. After Jinzhou, they will choose to take the official road.

Before arriving, Yang Zhao was discussing with the accompanying general Wang Shichong and Li Cunxiao.

"Your Highness, it won't be long before we arrive in Jinzhou."

Wang Shichong pointed to the map and said.

"Ah."

Yang Zhao nodded slightly as a response.

"Your Highness, according to the report from the scouts, the rebels seem to have withdrawn their forces, and they should be defending the Taiyuan area."

Wang Shichong continued.

In other words, the Li family has already heard the news, and this time they will focus on attacking the city.

When the army arrived in Taiyuan, what they had to face was an iron wall.

"What do you suggest about this?"

Yang Zhao asked calmly.

"The last general suggested that we mobilize troops from Xuzhou, Jizhou and Qijun to besiege Taiyuan."

Wang Shichong didn't even want to blurt out.

In this way, the strength of the troops has increased several times, and even if Taiyuan is an iron wall, it will be broken.

If only [-] troops are used to fight, it will inevitably be difficult.

It's not impenetrable, it just takes a lot of time and effort.

The key is that late autumn is approaching, and winter is not far away.

Once it drags on, it will be detrimental to the Sui army.

It has to be said that Wang Shichong's proposal is based on common sense.

With the advantage, if we launch a fierce strike, we will get twice the result with half the effort to counter the rebellion.

"No."

Yang Zhao directly refused.

"But."

Wang Shichong hesitated to speak.

In fact, as early as when Chang'an dispatched troops, he was full of doubts in his heart.

There are too few troops dispatched, and some of them are cavalry, how can we attack the city?

"If so many troops are mobilized at the same time, the situation in various places will change."

Yang Zhao said in a deep voice.

"Let the barbarians or the rebels who have stopped will seize this opportunity."

He continued.

In other words, places that are empty of troops are very likely to be captured by the rebels again.

"promise."

After hearing this, Wang Shichong realized it belatedly.

"Your Highness, judging from the future, the Li family's troops have suffered heavy losses, and they only need to attack by force."

Li Cunxiao's views are even more straightforward.

After all, he knew that many of the [-] troops were elite.

Siege Taiyuan with cavalry, and then use Modao Army and other Tang troops to attack the city. If there are certain casualties, Taiyuan can be easily captured.

"Neither."

Yang Zhao shook his head.

Now Wang Shichong was dumbfounded.

It is impossible to attack by force, and it is also impossible to dispatch more troops, so how should we fight this battle?
"Why did I bring the cavalry here?"

Yang Zhao asked.

"This"

Wang Shichong was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

"The situation in Bingzhou is not just one Li family."

Yang Zhao said lightly.

These words are to wake up Wang Shichong and Li Cunxiao.
