[Datang Shuanglong Biography] The Wolf of the Eastern Capital

Li Shiji's army attacked the Turks' camp from the west, while Tang Tian took the east route. The two sides formed a pincer attack trend against the Turks. The army of the two had the upper hand, and Tang Tian restrained Zhao Deyan in the Turkic tent, which also prevented Zhao Deyan from making any moves in strategic deployment. He wanted to break out but was stopped by Tang Tian forcefully.As a result, the Turks' defensive offensive became chaotic.

Li Shiji is a battle-tested general. Under such circumstances, he would naturally not miss the opportunity. After a few dispatches, the Turkic defense line was defeated. Move closer to Tang Tian.

"Let's fight boldly, the boss is very easy to handle." Qin Chuan led a group of people to secretly wipe out several waves of people, and came back to join Wei Nan when he felt that there were no traps or ambushes.

"We still have to be careful. We are enemies and not friends with the Li family. If they want to cut off our retreat, it will be difficult for us to break through. In this situation, our base camp is not here, so we can't take the initiative to attack. Play defensively and counterattack." Wei Nan and Qin Chuan were hot and cold, but they complemented each other perfectly.

"Well, I will continue to take a team of brothers to make trouble for the Turks, and let them know that they can never be so arrogant on our territory."

Tang Tian was surrounded by people in front of the tent, separated from Zhao Deyan by a certain distance, but he could still feel Zhao Deyan's murderous intent towards him. Seeing the Turkic soldiers surrounding him and not daring to step forward, Tang Tian looked at the back of the crowd. Zhao Deyan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

Zhao Deyan was angry, but he had nothing to do with Tang Tian. He didn't intend to face Tang Tian in the first place. Zhao Deyan asked himself that he didn't even have the ability to compete with Ning Daoqi, so how could he defeat Tang Tian? No. [-] in the world, Ning Dodge's people challenged it.But unexpectedly, Tang Tian chose to challenge him, who was the strongest in the Turkic army, and won. In addition, Li Shiji was attacking outside, and the Turkic soldiers scattered into a group. Zhao Deyan gritted his teeth and had to swallow. The anger in my heart said, "Withdraw, withdraw to Fengqiu City."

Originally, the troops were stationed by the Yellow River to put pressure on Luoyang, facing the army of Daliang City across the river, but now it was a failure, and the troops of Li Shiji and Tang Tian were completely surrounded, and now they can only retreat to Fengqiu in the north County, think of a way to go further south.Luoyang, he will call there sooner or later.

As soon as the Turkic army retreated, Wei Nan joined Tang Tian, ​​"My lord, should we pursue?"

"Kill Li Shiji and chase after him." Tang Tian turned around and said.

"Ah?" Wei Nan also knew that Li Shiji was not suitable for chasing after him, but he didn't expect that Tang Tian would kill Li Shiji when he opened his mouth.

Li Shiji didn't order the pursuit either, and Wei Nan guessed that the other party was as worried as he was.The armies of the two sides looked at each other in the camp of the Turkic ruins. They did not move without orders, but they all defended each other.

Tang Tian and Li Shiji appeared in the center of the crowd at the same time.

"Thank you, General Li, for reporting the letter, otherwise, how could Tang calculate the timing for crossing the river?" Tang Tian's words caused a momentary turmoil in the Li Clan's army, and Tang Tian wanted this effect.

Li Shiji just looked at the sky, "It looks like I might not be able to compete with General Tang today."

Tang Tian raised his eyebrows, "We can compare who will attack Fengqiu City first."

"Even if we break into Fengqiu City, it's the Li Clan's victory, not mine, Li Shiji."

Tang Tian looked at Li Shiji, "Are you planning to leave Li Shimin?" After turning his mind, Tang Tian continued, "Can you think of a good place to go?"

"Just relying on my name, Li Shiji, why should I be inferior to others?"

Tang Tian half-closed his eyes. He didn't expect Li Shiji to have the idea of ​​establishing his own family. Also, Li Shiji has fought in the battlefield for so many years. It is also possible to form a force of its own.Tang Tian quickly made a decision whether to nip Li Shiji's power in the bud or help him out.

"What do you think of Fengqiu City as a stronghold, how about these cities north of the Yellow River?" Tang Tian said with a smile. It must be a fierce battle to stop Li Shiji, and it may even cause the Turks to make a comeback. Li Shiji probably waited for this time to say this The incident made Tang Tian have to escort him.

Li Shiji stared at Tang Tian's face, and was silent for a while before he said, "Very good." He was originally unhappy with these Turkic people, but Tang Tian's attitude was very serious, and it was considered a treaty to reach an agreement with Tang Tian. help.

"Tang has one condition."

"I, Li Shiji, stayed in Fengqiu for just one day, and I crossed the Yellow River and did not attack Luoyang."

"General Lee is a smart man."

"I want Xingyang."

Tang Tian frowned, "Across the Yellow River, General Li may not be able to manage it."

"I want Xingyang. As long as General Tang doesn't stop me, I will send someone to control Xingyang."

"How about common governance, the civil administration and finance belong to you, and the military fortification belongs to me. You are allowed to set up a personal guard, but no more than 500 people."

Li Shiji frowned and thought for a while, "Refugees from Qi County, you have to release them." If there is no one in the land north of the Yellow River, what use is it for him to have land.

"Yes." With so many people left, Tang Tian didn't want to raise them either.

"make a deal."

After the two reached an agreement, they discussed how to attack Fengqiu. First, Li Shiji's confidants brought out the soldiers who were loyal to the Li Clan, but they did not kill them, but drove them back to the original camp.Let Li Jing continue to lead them.

The rest are those who are willing to follow Li Shiji, and then there are those who were willing to follow Li Shiji in Li Mi's army, and they have come here one after another before.There are more than [-] people in total.

Tang Tian organized an army of young and middle-aged refugees from the north of the Yellow River. They were useless in the sneak attack at the beginning, but now they can be used as the vanguard to attack Fengqiu. Land, they are naturally willing to contribute.

It is not so easy to deal with Fengqiu. The first thing to guard against is Li Shimin from Taiyuan.

"If it can be said that Kou Zhong in the south and the Song Clan in the middle of Shu are putting pressure on Chang'an, then Li Shimin has to think a little bit more about how to deal with us."

"This is easy." Tang Tian glanced at Li Shiji and said, and then called Wei Nan to write a letter to Kou Zhong and the others.

"Before they act, we can take back several cities around Fengqiu."

Tang Tian nodded. The few cities from the north of the Yellow River to the east and the sea are all occupied by scattered small bosses, and they can't make a difference. After they clean up the Turks, those people will naturally follow the trend.How to incorporate it later is Li Shiji's business.

On the evening of the day when the Turks retreated to Fengqiu City, Li Clan received the news. Naturally, there was all sorts of confusion, especially since the Turks' envoys were still living in Taiyuan.

Originally, if Li Shiji attacked in violation of the military order, Li Shimin could adapt to the situation and say that he didn't know, and then acquiesce in Li Shiji's behavior, but now Li Shiji almost betrayed the Li Clan.And took away a bunch of cronies.If Li Shimin was against the Turks at this time, he would be on the same line as the traitor Li Shiji.But let Li Shimin completely cooperate with the Turks, Li Shimin is not willing.Li Shimin had no choice but to hang on the appetite of the Turkic envoy first, but Li Jiancheng, who was also in Taiyuan, had a very pleasant talk with the Turkic envoy.

On the other side, Li Yuan also received information about the actions of the Song Clan and Kou Zhong. Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were two generals of the Li Clan. It was impossible to stay in Taiyuan at the same time at this time.Li Shimin had no choice but to grit his teeth and return to Chang'an.

"At this time, I am more envious of Li Shiji. Like him, he has nothing to worry about, and he does what he wants. The elder brother is in Taiyuan, so he will definitely cooperate with the Turks. The Li Clan is too deeply restrained by the Turks. After all, the Turks are foreigners. They are not my race. , his heart must be different." Li Shimin said to his confidant on the way back to Chang'an.

It was originally a private conversation, but in the end, many people knew it in private. In the eyes of the common people, Li Shimin immediately became a person who had nothing to do with the Turks and was under the control of the family, and Li Jiancheng was the sinner who cooperated with the Turks.

People's hearts, sometimes it's just a plaything of the superiors.

Although Li Jiancheng wanted to cooperate with the Turks to deal with Tang Tian and Li Shiji, Li Yuan also gave Li Jiancheng an order not to act rashly. Although Li Jiancheng refused to accept it, he also knew the importance of Taiyuan to the Li Clan, so he could only hold back.Waiting for Li Yuan's next instruction.However, the oppression of Chang'an by Kou Zhong and the Song clan made Li Yuan feel like walking on thin ice, and he did not dare to act rashly. Li Jiancheng could only watch Tang Tian and Li Shiji recruiting forces under his nose, unable to do anything.

Kou Zhong's reply letter did not reach Tang Tian until about ten years later. At this time, Li Tang's coalition forces had established a certain advantage on the north bank of the Yellow River. He brought a piece of news that Bi Xuan, the top Turkic master, is now on his way to Fengqiu to deal with Tang Tian.

Bi Xuan, Tang Tian didn't take it seriously, but he was more curious about another matter, which can also be said to be gossip, "How are Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling doing now?"

"Uh, it's quite strange. The two of them are also one of the targets of Bi Xuan's trip to the Central Plains this time, so I went to remind them first. It happened that they received your letter, so let me come and let you know." Ba Feng Han's focus is still on Bi Xuan.

"How strange?" Tang Tian was still concerned about the relationship between Kou and Xu.

"When not together, two people inquire about each other's affairs, but after two people are together, they don't talk anymore." Apart from being proficient in martial arts, Ba Fenghan is also an honest person in other aspects man.

Tang Tian felt that he probably couldn't hear anything hot from Ba Fenghan's mouth, so he changed the subject, "You are a Turkic, why did you help us?"

"Oh, the Turks also killed my parents. I only help those who I think I can help. Brother Tang, you are not the kind of militaristic person. As long as the Turks don't attack you, you will naturally not attack the Turks. Both sides are in peace. Nature is the best."

"Then you're wrong. I'm going to hit the Turks' stronghold this time, until they never dare to set foot in the Central Plains again."

"I've brought the news to Brother Kou. As for Brother Tang's thoughts, I'm not in a position to ask. I'll take my leave first." Ba Fenghan didn't want to get too involved in this battle.

Tang Tian nodded, he just needed to be sure that Ba Fenghan would not stand against him.

"We're going to tear Fengqiu apart before Bi Xuan arrives." Li Shiji said after hearing the news.

"No, there is no need to be so anxious at this time. When Bi Xuan comes, we will catch them all in one go." Defeating the number one master of the Turks and the number one army division of the East Turks, such a name is resounding enough.

"If you are sure to deal with Zhao Deyan and Bi Xuan, I don't care. As long as you keep these two people in check, Fengqiu is in my pocket."

"Don't worry." Tang Tian counted the days, Shi Zhixuan had been away for 20 days, he should be on his way back, if there is time, they can fight Zhao Deyan and Bi Xuan together.
