Siheyuan: a game system with you

120. Chapter 118

Li Yongxuan's Northern Expedition was so smooth. In addition to being equipped with a large number of muskets and artillery, the most important thing was that Mongolia attacked Sichuan and Chongqing many times, all for the purpose of weakening the strength of the Song court.

The Mongolian army is small and the front line is too long, which can easily cause the troops to be scattered and be defeated one by one, especially in the mountains and dense forests in Shu, which is inconvenient to take advantage of the Mongolian cavalry.

They mainly focused on looting and killing, and when the army retreated, only a few puppet troops remained to guard the city.

Li Yongxuan led the army to deal with the puppet army, it was like destroying the dead.

This is the main reason for his reorganization of the team. The selection is strong, there are many puppet troops, and there are many people who fled to the mountains to escape the war.

Although they were forced by the situation, Li Yongxuan had no choice but to take precautions.

In order to prevent them from being timid before fighting at critical moments, or even fleeing, which will affect the battle situation.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the sentries went first.

Li Yongxuan led the army to rest for a month in Nanzheng, Lizhou East Road, and was about to march westward, when he received the news that Emperor Song sent an imperial envoy to announce the decree.

After hesitating for a while, he decided to go to Lin'an Mansion to face the saint.

If Li Yongxuan doesn't straighten out his relationship with Song Ting, he will continue to be hindered by his northern expedition to Mongolia.

It will be more difficult to get things done.

Half a month later, Li Yongxuan entered the Dajiang River along the Han River and went all the way eastward to Lin'an Mansion.

Maybe it's because he didn't get promoted this time, and he didn't get anything or skills.

Song Emperor summoned Li Yongxuan to the capital for nothing more than to successfully take over Jincheng and the soldiers and horses in Li Yongxuan's hands, and to test his loyalty by the way.

Seeing that Li Yongxuan arrived as scheduled, Emperor Song couldn't help feeling a little proud.

No matter how high the martial arts are, no matter how great the credit is, with a piece of imperial edict, don't they have to obediently obey orders?
Knowing that Emperor Song wanted to take over Jincheng, and also wanted to deprive him of the soldiers and horses in his hands, Li Yongxuan remained calm on the surface, but he had already made up his mind.

Coming out of the palace and returning to the post house, Li Yongxuan found that he was being watched, but he didn't care.

After midnight, he put on his night clothes and slipped out, sneaking into the palace.

Li Yongxuan's lightness kungfu is unmatched in the world, only Xiaolongnv can compare it, his martial arts is even more unmatched, coupled with super-sensing skills, entering and leaving the back garden of the imperial city is like no one else.

Although he didn't provide any information, he found Zhao Yun very quickly.

Surprisingly, Li Yongxuan discovered that someone had sneaked into the harem of the imperial city. This person was not only extremely powerful in martial arts, but also had superb lightness skills.

A moment later, Li Yongxuan followed the man to a bedroom.

The man set fire to the palace, then turned around and set fire to other palaces.

Only then did Li Yongxuan understand that this person wanted to fish in troubled waters and intentionally set fire to the palace to create chaos.

After a while, the quiet palace became lively and noisy.

Some people screamed, some cried, some put out the fire, some fled in panic, and some went to report to the emperor...

Emperor Song finally couldn't sit still anymore, and brought a group of people out of the bedroom to send people to put out the fire.

Most of the palaces in the imperial city are civil engineering, and they are connected together. Once they burn, it is difficult to extinguish them.

Li Yongxuan originally thought that the man's goal was to take advantage of the chaos to assassinate the emperor, but unexpectedly, the man sneaked into the palace.

"who?"

As soon as Li Yongxuan went in with that person, he heard a woman scolding.

Just by listening to her voice, one can tell that she is very young, very beautiful, and her martial arts are still very high.

The man was stunned: "Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine has such a powerful master!"

As soon as the words fell, he jumped out of the bedroom.

Li Yongxuan thought that Zhao Yun had just left the palace, and when everyone extinguished the fire in the palace, it was very likely that he would come back.

So he didn't leave in a hurry, but took this opportunity to sneak into the palace.

The woman who spoke before told the maid who was waiting beside her to go down, and was about to go to bed when Li Yongxuan tapped her acupoints and said: "If you don't want to die, just be honest and answer whatever you ask!"

Sure enough, the woman was about 20 years old, not only very beautiful, but also very enchanting.

She looked at Li Yongxuan suspiciously and nodded.

Although the woman was hit on the dumb acupoint and was unable to speak, there was no problem in her actions.

"who are you?"

Li Yongxuan brought a cup of tea, put it on the table, and asked the woman to write.

Originally, he wanted to use the soul-shifting method, but unfortunately this woman's mental strength is too strong and her will is too firm, so he can only use ordinary methods.

After communicating, Li Yongxuan knew that this woman was Yan Guifei, Song Emperor Zhao Yun's favorite.

At the very beginning, Concubine Yan Gui refused to reveal her true identity. It was not until Li Yongxuan said that she would be executed on the spot that she confessed that she was a Mongolian spy. Song created favorable conditions.

This trick of beauties is not new. Many years ago, the State of Yue offered his beauties to confuse the King of Wu.

Although Li Yongxuan felt suspicious, but thinking about it, what Yan Guifei said was not unreasonable.

After thinking about it, he decided to cooperate with Concubine Yan.

Anyway, Li Yongxuan has been completely disappointed with Song Ting. Instead of letting Mongolia stir up mountains and rivers and blood flow into rivers, it is better to provide him with convenience, get more benefits, and strengthen his own power.

Concubine Yan Gui was both shocked and surprised when she learned of Li Yongxuan's true identity.

She didn't expect that the person in front of her was Li Yongxuan, the martial arts leader who had recently become famous and his martial arts was world-class. No wonder she didn't notice him coming in at all.

What's more, Li Yongxuan, as a courtier of the Song Dynasty, dared to break into the deep palace of the imperial city, and even blatantly proposed to cooperate with him.

Concubine Yan Gui's life is now in Li Yongxuan's hands, how could she refuse?

She promised to persuade Song Emperor Zhao Yun to let Li Yongxuan lead the Song Army to the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains and provide supplies.

As a condition, Concubine Yan asked Li Yongxuan to reveal his true colors.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Concubine Yan Gui showed Li Yongxuan the charm of a plain girl.

She originally thought that Li Yongxuan would definitely seduce the soul and be at her mercy, but she didn't expect that he would not have the slightest influence.

Seeing Concubine Yan's winking eyes like silk, Li Yongxuan couldn't help it.

In contrast, this temptation is far inferior to the torment he suffered from hot videos and action movies in the 21st century.

Li Yongxuan showed his true colors in front of Concubine Yan, and quickly left and returned to the post house.

He wasn't afraid that Concubine Yan Gui would go back on her word and sue Emperor Song to make trouble for him, and at worst, she would tear her face apart completely.

Seeing Li Yongxuan's true face, Yan Guifei showed a surprised expression.

At this moment, Concubine Yan knew that the rumored young hero Li Yongxuan was well-deserved, and that he was indeed magnificent and martial arts.

Two days later, Emperor Song issued an order.

Li Yongxuan was appointed as Jiedu envoy to control the soldiers and horses of Jincheng and Lizhou. Recently, he led the soldiers and horses under his command in the Northern Expedition.

It was said that it was to cooperate with Li Yongxuan's Northern Expedition, but in fact, Emperor Song sent Yu Jie and Meng Gong to monitor Li Yongxuan, and specially issued a secret order to them.

In addition, Emperor Song also sent a father-in-law to Li Yongxuan to be in charge of supervising the army.

In any case, he was promoted again.

Li Yongxuan was very happy in his heart, and he was even happier that he got the backpack presented by the system.

With this multi-functional backpack, it is much easier for him to transport food, grass and equipment to the front line, and he no longer needs to carry it to a hidden space and send it again and again.

A few days later, Li Yongxuan came to Xiangyang by boat, and the appeasement envoy Lu Wende, Guo Jing, Zhou Botong, Zhu Ziliu, Yeluqi, Yeluyan and others went to meet him.

Huang Rong had to take care of two babies and couldn't leave her body.

Guo Fu didn't want to see Li Yongxuan, so she didn't go.

Everyone had already heard the news that General Li Yongxuan led his army to the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, and they were all gearing up and eager to try.

Many people with lofty ideals in the Song Dynasty also responded one after another, waiting for this day to make contributions to the country and the nation.

For more than ten years, they have not had this opportunity, and they finally waited for this day.

At the reception banquet, Li Yongxuan told the number of martial arts practiced by Concubine Yan Gui, and asked everyone which martial art it was.

Everyone was at a loss when they heard this, and they were at a loss.

They have never heard of it, let alone seen this kind of martial arts.

Only Huang Rong was well-informed and thoughtful.

She said that she once heard about this kind of martial arts from her father Huang Yaoshi, who likes to travel around the world. It seems to be a secret sect called Su Nv Gong. Martial arts are very special and good at deceiving people. , you will lose most of your skills...

Li Yongxuan was stunned when he heard this.

Is Yan Guifei still a virgin?No wonder she was so scared when she talked about Fa-rectification on the spot. It turned out that she was afraid of losing her gong power!
Thinking of this, Li Yongxuan immediately changed the topic and asked everyone to focus on the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains.

Inadvertently, he revealed a message to everyone that he was ready to divide his troops into three routes to attack the Central Plains.

Gathered with all of you that night and had a lot of fun.

Since Li Yongxuan captured Kublai Khan in Xiangyang and forced the Mongolian army to retreat, until now, the Mongolian army has not attacked Xiangyang City on a large scale.

Regardless of the officials, the defenders, or the common people, they are very grateful to Li Yongxuan for his chivalry.

The military situation is urgent, and it is not too late.

As soon as the sky brightened the next morning, Li Yongxuan and Yeluyan left Xiangyang for Lizhou.

Now that Yelu Chucai had passed away, Yeluyan no longer had any worries, so he followed Li Yongxuan to the front line.

Reunion after a long absence, very passionate.

Yeluyan and Li Yongxuan were exchanging ideas in the secret space, and they couldn't stop because they were so forgetful.

It's a pity that they are going upstream, and the speed of the boat is relatively slow.

If they go down the river, they can really make a huge difference in one day.

Before they knew it, they followed the Han River from Xiangyang to Lizhou.

Back in Nanzheng, Li Yongxuan deliberately released the news, saying that they would unite Yu Jie, the envoy of the Sichuan-Chongqing system, and Meng Gong, the envoy of the Jinghu appeasement system, to divide into three routes for the northern expedition.

He knew that there were three Mongolian spies hidden in Xuanmen, wouldn't it be a pity not to use them?

Li Yongxuan let the [-] army continue to rest for two days before starting to act.

He first pretended to lead the army to the north, and then let the 1 main force march eastward, leaving [-] troops to garrison the key points of Dasan Pass, Fengzhou, and Wuxiu Pass.

In this way, even if the Mongolian army attacks Lizhou, they can send troops to support them anytime and anywhere without worrying about being copied.

The soldiers are extremely fast, and in just a few days, Li Yongxuan led [-] soldiers and horses from Lizhou to the west of Beijing.

He led the army across the river from Yunxiang and Junzhou to attack Dengzhou with lightning speed, and at the same time sent people to Xiangyang to deliver letters and attack together.

Li Yongxuan tried it specially, and found that the space in the backpack can only hold one artillery, and 99 firearms can be placed.

It has to be said that the backpack is larger and more convenient than the hidden space.

The secret space can hold at most one cannon, but the backpack can hold 64 cannons. The gap is huge and obvious.

The appeasement envoy Lu Wende received the letter and hurriedly went to Meng Gong, Guo Jing and others to discuss important matters.

Knowing that Li Yongxuan led his army eastward and entered Dengzhou, everyone felt a little puzzled.

Didn't it mean that the troops were divided into three groups, why did Li Yongxuan lead his army eastward and join them?Could it be that the Northern Expedition encountered setbacks?

At this time, Meng Gong had already led [-] troops to Xiangyang, ready to cooperate with Li Yongxuan's Northern Expedition.

He guessed that Li Yongxuan suddenly led his army to the east this time, he was attacking the east from the west, and concentrated his strength before attacking.

So Meng Gong decisively led 2 horses to attack, assisting Li Yongxuan in attacking Dengzhou on the one hand, and Biyang in Tangzhou on the other.

Within a few days, the two armies of Li Yongxuan and Meng Gong recovered Dengzhou and Tangzhou, and their soldiers pointed directly at Luoyang and Bianliang, shaking the government and the public.

For a long time, it was the Mongolian army that attacked the Song land, and few people had the Song army attacking the Mongolian army.

Although it only captured two states, the shock to everyone was extremely huge.

Chahan and Zhang Rou are preparing to lead the army to recapture Shouzhou. When they learn that Li Yongxuan and Meng Gong led the army to capture Dengzhou and Tangzhou, they quickly lead the army to resist Li Yongxuan.

They believe that Li Yongxuan once captured Kublai Khan and forced the Mongolian army to withdraw from Xiangyang.

Li Yongxuan not only has high prestige and great appeal, but also has great influence, especially after he won the victories in Jincheng and Lizhou, he became a banner of the Song Dynasty against the Mongolian invasion of the south, posing a far-reaching threat to the Mongolian army. Much larger than the Shouzhou Song Army.

Li Yongxuan led his army to capture Dengzhou, took the important town of Nanyang with artillery, and obtained a large amount of grain and grass piled up by the Mongolian army here.

Over the years, the Mongolian army has repeatedly attacked Xiangyang, always using Nanyang as the frontline supply.

It is conceivable how rich the grain, grass and materials are stored inside.

Now that Li Yongxuan took Nanyang, if the Mongolian army wanted to attack Xiangyang, they had to take Nanyang first, which undoubtedly added a solid barrier to Xiangyang.

After successfully taking down Dengzhou, Li Yongxuan was not in a hurry to lead his army to take advantage of the victory to pursue the Mongolian army, but took Nanyang, Rangcheng, and Biyang as the fulcrums of each other's horns.

The main reason is that the prestige of the Mongolian iron cavalry is too famous, and they are not sure enough to defeat them, and Li Yongxuan does not want to take a little of his family fortune to take risks.

Unexpectedly, the father-in-law of the supervising army was eager to make contributions and asked Li Yongxuan to lead his troops to attack Ruzhou and take Luoyang directly.

He wanted to make an extraordinary achievement, which would be remembered by the emperor and future generations.

Li Yongxuan refused the request to send troops without even thinking about it. He said that the army had been running around for many days and needed to rest.

He is now based in the important town of Nanyang, with sufficient food and grass. He has Rangcheng and Biyang as two wings, and Xiangyang and Jingxi as a solid backing. How can he fight a hard battle alone?
If you attack rashly, you will be easily surrounded by the flexible and maneuverable Mongolian cavalry. Even if Li Yongxuan has a large number of artillery and muskets in his hand, he may not be able to win the battle against the brave and skilled Mongolian army.
