Tang Dynasty Never Night

Yes, this idea was given by Li Xian. Hot air balloons will not be able to find so many people who can control hot air balloons for a while, so let's change the method, tie the hot air balloon with a cable, make it longer, and tie it to the High-altitude strikes can still be carried out on the city wall, but this can only be used to defend the city, and the attack is probably ignored.

Zhang Renyuan originally arranged various tactics for this because of the lack of mobility of the opponent's hot air team. As a result, the opponent came out like this. Yes, the offensive power in Chang'an City is probably still relatively weak, but Zhang Renyuan wanted them to be Those who came to attack the city, the other side will be successful in defending the city, okay?

Zhang Renyuan was stationed [-] miles away from the city on the first day, and sent someone out to call for battle. As a result, the man who was sent out just said a few words, and was tied into a hedgehog.

Zhang Renyuan was startled, what rhythm is this?He sent a lieutenant, who has a lot of manpower and high martial arts skills, let's put this aside for now, the problem is that the lieutenant is outside the range of the bow and crossbow when he goes out to call for battle. What secret weapon?

In fact, it's nothing, it's just that Li Xian wrote an idea for improving the winch crossbow before leaving, and then threw it to Qiu Mingheng, Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Qiu Mingheng is the best among the group of technical houses. It's the kind with both EQ and IQ online, and I feel very lucky to have chosen such a Li Xian.

In the past, Qiu Mingheng did not have enough qualifications, but now Datang is at the stage of breaking through and then establishing itself. Qiu Mingheng's qualifications are considered to be above average here, and that is him!

Qiu Mingheng is over 40 years old, his background is not very good, and his ability...is a bit biased. He thought that he was able to become the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and it was already smoke from his ancestral grave, but he never expected that he would actually make it to the Ministry of Industry after a civil strife Shangshu!

So this one has completely become a loyal fan of the Regent. Simply put, the Regent will not go west if he wants to go east, and he will not be discouraged if he wants to fight!So before Li Xian left, he came up with an idea and handed it to Qiu Mingheng, but he didn't ask them to make it, but Qiu Mingheng held the idea that the regent would see the finished product when he came back, thinking about it day and night. I also think about it, my head is bald.

Finally let him figure out a little way, but the range of the winch crossbow is about 700 meters, and after improvement, it can only reach 900 meters. Although it is not easy to increase the range of 200 meters, Qiu Mingheng is still a little dissatisfied. Just when he was about to continue his research, Luoyang called!

Zheng Qi directly asked Qiu Mingheng to mass-produce the improved winch crossbow first, at least use it this time, and change it if he really researched a longer-range one.

So... with an extra range of 200 meters, isn't this captain just dying?

Zhang Ren wished to worry about being bald. He realized that he had to be mentally prepared to fight against Li Xian, and he had to deal with endless new gadgets, but the problem was... how to prevent it?Because no one knows how many skill points the regent has lit up, you don't even know what he will come up with next time, okay? !

After fighting for so many years, Zhang Renyuan suddenly had the illusion that this is not an opponent that humans can handle. To be honest, it goes without saying that he can survive today. It is not empty talk whether he is proud of victory or discouraged by defeat, but now... He really has no confidence.

If he was more ruthless, he might be able to use the lives of soldiers to force his way through this line of defense. However, this is only the outer city of Chang'an. Who knows if there are such hot air balloons in the inner city?The most important thing was that Zhang Renyuan also had a question mark in his heart about whether there was oil on the hot air balloon. He was really frightened by Li Xian's handwriting.

Just when he was thinking about how to attack the city, he was attacked that night. Fortunately, Zhang Renyuan is also a veteran, so it is impossible for him to be unprepared for the sneak attack. Originally, Zhang Renyuan wanted to be a trap and wait for someone to get in. The target was that the opponent might Come sneak attack.

Although Zhang Renyuan didn't attack, it is estimated that no one can tolerate another wave of enemies squatting in front of his house, right?Affecting life, there are so many people in Chang'an, it is difficult to stabilize people's hearts after being beaten here.

It's just that Zhang Renyuan never expected that he had set up a suspicious array to lure the opponent to sneak attack. The opponent did come, but when he showed his hideous face, he found that the opponent's sneak attack was actually just a show, and it was basically a confrontation between the two armies in a fair and honest manner. !

I'll go!

Fighting against this gang of Shenjingbing is really dead, so many brain cells can't guess what they want to do. Isn't it because you didn't have enough troops before?Who doesn't know that Li Xian led his troops to the Western Regions, and you guys dared to fight like this if you don't have enough numbers?

What is needed is surprise, dear, Zheng Qi's fighting style has always been flexible and changeable. When he has absolute strength to crush, he can open and close, and he can also play guerrilla warfare when he has insufficient troops.In addition, Li Xian has watched a lot of TV dramas with various historical nonsense, and occasionally jokingly talks about it with Zheng Qi.

Although the proportion of nonsense in those TV dramas is relatively large, they can indeed inspire Zheng Qi in many aspects. After being inspired, Zheng Qi will become more and more...unpredictable.

So in the middle of the night, Zhang Renyuan's army was caught off guard and fought like this. Longevity, at the moment of Yinshi in the middle of the night, it was time to sleep deeply. Although Zhang Renyuan restrained the army and asked them to take emergency measures, it was still Put them to sleep in batches.

How about this, Zheng Qi made it look like a rabbit got into a fox when he came here, the whole camp was in a mess, Zhang Renyuan was not in a hurry to fight, but he was a little tired, Zheng Qi was really like firing a shot to change the hole, Seeing that the defense here is relatively tight, they just changed places. The most cheating thing is that they can plant explosives when they change places!

In the morning, when the eastern sky was faintly pale, Zheng Qi decisively withdrew his troops, how could Zhang Renyuan let him withdraw his troops quickly?Naturally, he had to chase and fight, and then he found that Zheng Qi and the others had stopped burying explosives, and started spreading barbed wire instead.

In this era, military horses are a very important material. It can be said that people are not as valuable as horses, but they can't completely ignore the lives of soldiers. Zhang Renyuan can only stop chasing, but he doesn't care. Although Tribulus stopped him, the other party couldn't make it through either, so let's face each other, Chang'an City will be more affected.

After going back, Zhang Renyuan took an inventory of his subordinates. Many soldiers died this time, but Zheng Qi’s losses were not much better than theirs. Zhang Renyuan compared them and found that they were acceptable. And... Hearing that Anxi's side has been settled, he doesn't believe that the regent will not come back, but it's fine if he doesn't come back, it's easier to send someone to intercept the regent!

It's just that no one expected that Zheng Qi would show up with soldiers and horses that night, but Zhang Renyuan had expected it a long time ago. He also planted minefields like Li Xian, but... Zheng Qi and Li Xian were together After spending so long in bed, would this kind of thing be unguarded?

He had tried it yesterday, because there were no landmines, so Zhang Renyuan didn't let Zhang Renyuan discover his method of detection. Today...after the landmine exploded, Zhang Renyuan originally wanted to go to clean up the mess, but in the end...almost got cleaned up.

Zheng Qi's journey was not easy. Because he had sprinkled barbed wire before, he sent scouts to collect magnets along the way, so as not to hurt his own people. He arrived at a place not far from Zhang Renyuan's camp. After the place, Zheng Qi found that the situation in the opponent's camp was not right—it was too normal.

The so-called normal is not very quiet and not very noisy, just like the usual camping. Zheng Qi is very good at distinguishing this, and he immediately felt that something was not right. After being attacked on the first night, Zhang Ren wanted to do this. Will the veteran really think that he will not come the next day after he retires?

How can it be? !And now that the other party is so down-to-earth, it means that the other party has nothing to worry about, and there is no need to think about anything else. There must be traps, and there is no trap that is more effective than minefields.

Well, the mine-sweeping plan that Li Xian researched before can come in handy.Yes, the blockade of technology is not very strict these days, and there is another characteristic of Datang Bar, that is, it likes to show its generosity, and often uses its own technology to raise several white-eyed wolves. Specific examples can be given casually Come out - Tubo.

Perhaps it can also be said that there are no permanent interests or permanent friends between countries. At that time, Datang must have had his own purpose for being so good to Tubo. This is normal, but if I treat you so well, you still bite back. It's just that you are wrong, so Tubo was beaten into a dog's head by Li Xian.

Because of the example of Tubo, Li Xian has been thinking, what if one day the tiger crouching guns and explosives he researched are used by other countries to deal with them?The tiger crouching cannon...probably because there is no other good way to do it besides quickly researching more advanced methods to keep ahead of the enemy and maintain an advantage.

But there is a way to avoid minefields. This is too easy to learn. Isn't it just planting mines on the opponent's only way?What a simple thing, but it's a pity that it's not easy to invent mine removal facilities these days, so Li Xian used a very straightforward method to detonate it in advance!

The stability of explosives these days is actually a bit of a problem, because the metal that wraps the explosives is not very advanced, so basically the arsenal is in the deep mountains and old forests, so as to avoid the explosion and affect the normal life of Chang'an residents.

So Zheng Qi didn't directly ask someone to hold a torch to detonate it, which is no different from letting someone die. He just asked someone to pour oil on the land in front of him, and then... light it!

While the flames won't necessarily spread underground, it's hot enough for the unstable dynamite to explode!And as long as one explosive explodes, according to the serial nature of the minefields, it is estimated that this area will explode one after another soon.

When Zhang Renyuan heard the sound of the explosion, his first reaction was that the other party had taken the bait, but he was very cautious not to send troops immediately. Zheng Qi was too cunning, and he didn't know if Li Xian left anything more amazing Therefore, Zhang Renyuan's style changed from radicalism to conservatism.

It's just that when the explosion had almost stopped, Zhang Renyuan sent someone out to check and found...no one!Zhang Renyuan immediately understood that after Zheng Qi detonated the landmine, he didn't even think about sneaking up again, and just took the people away.

And it can be regarded as a message to Zhang Renyuan-you can use minefields if you like, and I will detonate them once you use them. Let me see how much explosives you have to waste.

Zhang Renyuan... Zhang Renyuan was about to die of anger, and he suddenly thought of a sentence-the dog bites the bastard, there is no place to talk, no, this is what they are targeting Chang'an now.

Zhang Renyuan could only write a memorial to the emperor: It is unrealistic to attack Chang'an, please change the place, Your Majesty.

I also want to know that the symbolic meaning of Chang'an is so strong, can the other party take more precautions?As far as he knew, Pei Yanxiu and Liu Jinyao had already separated. Both of them were novices. If they didn't bully novices at this time, why should they fight Chang'an?

After Zheng Qi returned to Chang'an with his troops, he was a little aggrieved. He had been fighting for so many years and hadn't been so passive in defense. Although it seemed that he had slipped Zhang Renyuan away, in fact he still didn't dare to let go of the fight. , There is no way, the shortage of troops is one aspect, and on the other hand, this is their lair after all.

To use an analogy, a thief might come into your house to look for things without caring, but if you look for things at home by yourself, you must take care of some fragile items, right?This is the reason, now Zheng Qi can't let go of his hands and feet in his own home.

In the Daming Palace, Li Chongyi was still waiting for the news of Zheng Qi. Zheng Qi passed by without changing his military uniform. Seeing Li Chongyi, who was clearly sleepy but still holding on to sleep, Zheng Qi said softly : "Didn't the sage rest first?"

Zheng Qi raised his head and looked at Huang Changshi. Huang Changshi was an old man who followed Gaozong, but after Gaozong passed away, Li Xian abdicated within a few months after ascending to the throne of God. Naturally, he was not as good as before. Wu Although Zhao didn't send anyone to kill him, he didn't take care of him, and later sent him to Daming Palace.

After Li Chongyi ascended the throne, he needed a safe and reliable person by his side, so Li Xian found Huang Changshi.

Huang Changshi is full of gratitude to Li Xian and Zheng Qi, and is even more loyal to Li Chongyi. He knows that he will have a future with Li Chongyi, so he is very dedicated to taking care of Li Chongyi.

It's just that Li Chongyi himself is very stubborn, and Huang Changshi persuaded him for a long time to no avail. When facing Zheng Qi's questioning, he had to smile wryly: "I was useless, I failed to persuade the saint."

Li Chongyi immediately said: "It's because I don't want to sleep, I don't want to do Huang Changshi's business."

Li Chongyi has been trained since he was a child to learn to be responsible and take care of his own affairs. You can cause trouble but you can't shirk responsibility. This habit has been developed, and Huang Changshi will not be blamed.

Zheng Qi didn't insist on finding a responsible person, but said: "Zhang Renyuan will probably withdraw his army in a short time, and please ask the sage to issue an edict to make Pei Yanxiu and Liu Jinyao be careful."

Li Chongyi immediately reacted and asked, "Master Zheng thinks that Zhang Renyuan will attack them?"

Zheng Qi didn't dare to say death: "It's very likely, after all, the two of them are inexperienced, and it's easy for them to go wrong against veterans."

After hearing this, Li Chongyi saw that Zheng Qi had no intention of calling them back, nodded and said, "That's good."

A little tiredness appeared between Zheng Qi's brows and eyes, and he said: "The minister will take his leave first."

Li Chongyi couldn't help calling Zheng Qi: "President Zheng..."

Zheng Qi looked up at him strangely, and Li Chongyi asked a little embarrassedly: "That...uncle...will you be back soon?"

He misses Li Xian a little bit. He has almost grown up beside Li Xian all these years, and basically has not been separated much. This is the first time that he has been separated for such a long time.Especially after he became the emperor, Li Xian couldn't write him family letters every now and then, but could only wait impatiently for Zheng Qi to bring him news. The correspondence between Li Xian and Zheng Qi was relatively frequent.

Zheng Qi received Li Xian's letter three days ago, and after doing some calculations, he said, "I will be able to return to Chang'an in about ten days."

"There are still ten days." Li Chongyi was a little disappointed at first, but he quickly adjusted, and uncle will be back in ten days. After this time, Li Xian should not need to go out again, right?

After Zheng Qi appeased Li Chongyi, he returned to his mansion. As a result, he received Li Xian's latest letter the next day. Zheng Qi still felt a little strange. Although Li Xian wrote to him quite frequently, he never did. However, the interval between these two letters is too short.

As a result, Zheng Qi couldn't help laughing after opening it. It seemed that he had to go to the palace to tell Li Chongyi that his uncle's return date was uncertain.

why?Because Li Xian took soldiers and horses to attack Taiyuan Mansion!

When Li Xian was on the road, he received a letter from Zheng Qi, saying that the emperor had already made a move, and this time he would attack Chang'an directly. When a house is robbed, even if my own is a national martial arts champion, I will be worried.

At that time, Li Xian felt that it was not suitable for him to return to Chang'an now, because the other party might have gotten the news that he was walking back, and there might be no more ambushes on the way, and he didn't bring many people with him. Zheng Qi might have to give up the new link in order to save himself.

Li Xian has self-knowledge, he may be able to defend the city and turn the opponent around, but he doesn't have that talent in a real two-army confrontation.At that time, he made a final decision that he would not return to Chang'an, and he could not hold back his family.Although Lou Shide is there, Li Xian wants to send Lou Shide to help one of Pei Yanxiu and Liu Jinyao. In his own words, he would definitely bully such two novices.

So Li Xian directly asked Lou Shide to help them. Lou Shide was obviously very worried about Li Xian. If Li Xian didn't go back to Chang'an, where else could he go?Although the Tang Dynasty is not full of flames of war, it is not safe everywhere.

Li Xian thought about it for a while, he just abandoned the carriage and led a quick march all the way to attack. He was going to attack Taiyuan Mansion, and then captured Jizhou!Jizhou is the food supply place on the Luoyang side. Although it is not the only one, it is also very important. The opponent will certainly not sit idly by when Jizhou is attacked. He just wants to play this game to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

As for the source of troops, the cities and towns that have been conquered along the way must be indispensable, and local conscription is also possible at that time.It's just that he didn't expect Zheng Qi to be so powerful, and within two days he repelled Zhang Renyuan.

When Li Xian received Zheng Qi's victory report, he had already captured Xizhou, and his next target was Fenzhou. Of course, Xizhou was not exactly defeated. Li Xian led a surprise attack to the hot air balloon under the city of Xizhou. As soon as he released it, before he could do anything, the governor of Xizhou's legs went limp - this thing couldn't even handle the big food, and Zhang Renyuan also knelt under the hot air balloon. The governor of Xizhou was not very capable in the first place People, defending the city may be able to defend it for a day or two, but it may not be easy to wait for the imperial court's rescue.

The governor's head is also flexible. He was a courtier of the Tang Dynasty. Li Xian is the royal family of Li Tang. It is not a humiliation for him to surrender. Of course, some people may think of surrendering now. Why didn't they do it before?

In fact, the governor of Xizhou also wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. The two of them will fight and they will watch it. Moreover, after comparing the military strength of the governor of Xizhou, he thinks that Da Zhou is stronger, and he is now in Da Zhou can be the governor, if he surrenders, whether he can live or not is another matter.

It’s just that it’s impossible not to surrender now. Li Xian won Xizhou without killing people. At first, the people of Xizhou were panicked. After Li Xian entered Xizhou, he first learned about the local tax policy. After knowing that the taxation here has always been based on the previous ones, I made a decisive decision and reformed the tax system at that time.

If it was in the past, Li Xian would definitely encounter great resistance in doing so. The tax system was good for the Tang Dynasty and the common people, but it was not so good for the merchants and aristocratic families. The tax money feels distressed, and the latter is because... who can be a hidden household when they have the ability to pay taxes.

It's just that there is no way, Li Xian has big fists now, and there are no big families in Xizhou. If there is any objection, he directly puts on a hat of rebellion. I'm sorry, but do you still want money?Save your own lives first.In fact, there is nothing wrong with him doing this. The whole Xizhou is following Shendu, isn't it just rebellion?

Li Xian used the new taxation and land policies to stabilize the hearts of the people. Everyone found that after mixing with Datang, life seemed to be better, and the resistance was not so strong. He was originally from the same country, and Li Xian was more or less righteous. Compared with a little emperor and a female emperor, the little emperor is probably more acceptable.

Li Xian was working like a raging fire here, and he received Zheng Qi's safety letter over there. After being speechless for a while, he could only continue to bite the bullet. Really... If I knew it, I would have gone back to Chang'an first.

Just when Li Xian was reorganizing his army and preparing to attack Fenzhou, news suddenly came from Shendu: Wu Zhao wanted to make Wu Chengsi the crown prince.

Li Xian raised his eyebrows after hearing this. There was no surprise. If Wu Zhao wanted an heir, there would be no one else to choose except her natal nephew. It was impossible for Princess Taiping, after all, she was not from the Wu family.

It's just that the news that followed made Li Xian dumbfounded. After Wu Chengsi was established as the crown prince, he jumped out and said: Li Xian is not the god emperor's own son, but a demon who has occupied the body of the god emperor's son!

The author has something to say:

Let me tell you, illiteracy really doesn’t hurt. Rabbit spent a long time looking for a map for the word Xizhou. At the beginning, the map was not very clear and difficult to read. After looking at it, I found that I didn’t know it. I had to check QAQ again.
