What's more, the 100,000 combat forces are not just 100,000 people, but elite troops with at least three years of training.
If Liaodong did not have enough troops and reserves, Li Shouxi would not dare to do this.
After all, in Shouxi's eyes, Luo Yi and Li Keyong might become traitors at any time.
Eulogy, condolence, condolences
Finally, he sent troops to take revenge.
"Your Highness, Li Xuanhu is willing to lead the troops to defeat Huang Chao's bandit army!"
Bang!
As soon as Li Xuanhu asked for a fight, Li Shouxi slapped him and sent him flying.
Everyone was not surprised to see this scene. Luo Yi was worse than Li Xuanhu?
The three Nine Elders of the Tang Dynasty in the Northern Frontier - Duke Su Dingshan of Zhenguo, Duke Luo Yi of Yan, and Duke Li Keyong of Jin.
Li Xuanhu is not even as good as Luo Hao and others who are under the Nine Elders of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the Huang Chao uprising army that even Luo Yi was defeated. A mere reckless man actually wants to lead troops to suppress them. Isn't this sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth?
"Go down. Do you think leading troops to fight is as simple as charging into battle? Huang Chao, who even defeated the Duke of Yan, is far from being as simple as you think."
As he spoke, Li Shouxi turned his gaze to Li Bei.
This glance also made Li Bei tremble.
What does that mean? Are you going to let him lead the troops to the battle?
But Li Bei thought about it and felt that it was impossible. Li Shouxi had many famous generals under his command, and even if they were ranked according to seniority, it would not be his turn.
"Li Bi, you will be the military commander this time, responsible for logistics and resettlement of disaster victims.
The reason why the Duke of Yan failed this time was that he treated the Huang Chao uprising army as grassland people and slaughtered more than 300,000 people. It would have been strange if he did not arouse public indignation.
Therefore, you will accompany the army this time to arrange logistics and disaster relief matters!"
"Li Bei will definitely live up to the prince's expectations!"
Li Bei looked serious when he heard this.
Sure enough, if even he could see it clearly, how could Li Shouxi not see it clearly?
Moreover, the letter between Li Shouxi and Luo Yi was drafted by him personally.
The reason for this battle was not that the troops of Prince Yan's Mansion were at a disadvantage, but that Luo Yi was unclear.
What's more, Li Bei followed Li Shouxi and was responsible for the external public relations of the Prince of Yan's Mansion, the Fengtian Report and other important tasks. He was also the person who knew Li Shouxi best. How could he not understand who Li Shouxi was?
The failure of this southward campaign to suppress the rebels was probably something Li Shouxi had expected.
After all, Li Keyong and Luo Yi were as cunning as foxes, and Li Shouxi had long been wary of them.
"Also, pass on this king's order:
This time, the Duke of Jin will lead 100,000 soldiers from Bingzhou as the right wing and serve as the commander of the central army; Qin Shan will lead 100,000 soldiers from Liaodong as the left wing and serve as the deputy commander of the three armies to seize the two Huai regions!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
As the Chief Secretary, Li Bi was responsible for drafting all official letters to the royal palace.
As for Li Keyong and Qin Shan?
They are all experienced generals and much more reliable than Li Xuanhu.
Moreover, the Prince of Yan’s Mansion has a relatively large say this time.
Although Li Keyong was the commander-in-chief and commanded the three armies, the logistics were controlled by Li Bei. Qin Shan belonged to the neutral faction of the court. He was one of the Nine Elders of the Tang Dynasty and the son of Qin Shubao, the Protector of the Country.
"Wang Meng, prepare 30 million dan of disaster relief grain, transport it by water, and deliver it to the Huai River region in three months!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Wang Meng bowed and accepted the order without refusing.
In the past few years, Li Shouxi has been busy storing food to prepare for the harsh winter.
Even if there is only one shi of reserve grain per acre of black soil, that would be 500 million shi, far exceeding the speculation of people outside.
After all, Li Shouxi did not need to store grain to trade with various forces. He only needed to purchase all the grain from the landlords and gentry.
You should know that the Prince of Yan’s Mansion owns a large number of original land deeds.
Coupled with the power of the Prince of Yan's Mansion and Li Shouxi's reputation, the people would applaud the robbery and plunder.
"Li Xuanhu!"
"Your Majesty!"
Hearing that he had a mission, Li Xuanhu quickly stood up.
There was no war in the north, and the Prince of Yan's Mansion was full of experts. Li Xuanhu, who had fought his way out of the border army, had been itching to get his hands on it.
“Luo Yi has fallen, and Luo Cheng is eager to seek revenge. He might do something drastic this time.
This time, you will go to Youzhou with my order, gather the remaining main forces of Youzhou, and quickly train them into a strong army in case of emergency.
Remember, keep an eye on General Luo Cheng."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
When Li Xuanhu heard that they were not marching to fight, but just organizing the remaining main forces in Youzhou, he felt disappointed.
But it's better than being trapped in Prince Yan's Mansion.
Although this was like an external release, Li Xuanhu was already infinitely close to the Vajra Realm at this time, and he only needed a life-and-death battle to break through.
His position could not be shaken by distance. Compared with ordinary generals, they were at the top looking down.
"'Be careful, don't drink alcohol in the army!'"
Li Shouxi still feels at ease with Li Xuanhu.
The last reminder was also out of concern that Li Xuanhu would become too indulgent after arriving in Youzhou and violate military regulations.
When the imperial court was also worried about Luo Yi's failure, the news that Li Shouxi had sent troops again was also reported to the imperial court's Ministry of War?
Two hundred thousand soldiers?
Moreover, this time Li Shouxi dispatched the elite troops of Liaodong, with Li Keyong, Duke of Jin, as the commander-in-chief, and the scale of the army was twice as large as before.
Even when Emperor Tang heard the news that Li Shouxi was preparing to avenge his humiliation, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Luo Yi’s failure is Luo Yi’s incompetence!
They didn't think that Huang Chao could deal with Li Shouxi if he got serious.
Even when Huang Chao received the news again, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Who is serious?
Not to mention the despair Huang Chao felt, other forces in Jiuzhou understood that Huang Chao was doomed this time.
After all, the difference between the rebels and the regular army is not just armor.
"That's all?"
Huang Chao was extremely surprised when he heard about the subordinates of Prince Yan's Mansion.
Although it sounds extremely terrifying, for Huang Chao, these 200,000 soldiers are not invincible without the support of the masters from the Prince of Yan's Palace.
“Just these?
Huang Chao, did you become a little arrogant after defeating Luo Yi? Even Li Keyong, the Duke of Jin, looked down on you?
The most important thing is that the person in charge of logistics this time is the Chief Secretary of the Prince of Yan’s Mansion.
You don't even know the point, how lamentable and ridiculous!"
In the darkness, the man sneered at Huang Chao.
Li Keyong was a top-notch general who was no less famous than Luo Yi. The fact that he was promoted to one of the Nine Elders of the Tang Dynasty after Yang Xuangan, the Duke of Chu, was in itself a proof of his qualifications.
The most important point is also what most people overlook:
The military commander in charge of logistics is the chief historian of the Prince of Yan's Palace!
Chapter 239: The Hand of God
"The Chief Secretary of the Prince of Yan's Palace? So what?"
Huang Chao looked at the other party. He knew that the person supporting him was not just one person, but a big force, and a top force at that.
He didn't think that a mere chief historian could scare the other party.
But that man was completely disappointed with Huang Chao.
Not to mention a chief secretary, even the head of a noble family is not taken seriously by them.
But can a chief historian who controls the logistics of 200,000 soldiers and has the background of Prince of Yan's Palace be the same?
They didn't believe that Li Bi, as the Chief Secretary, was really only responsible for logistics.
They were still clear about the capabilities of Prince Yan's Mansion.
"Summer insects can't talk about ice!"
As the black shadow disappeared from the spot like a butterfly, Huang Chao's eyes condensed slightly, revealing a trace of solemnity.
Although he underestimated the Northern Expedition of the Prince of Yan's Mansion, he would not really despise the other side. After all, Luo Yi would only make the same mistake once, and others would not be easily fooled.
Luo Yi is Luo Yi, and Prince Yan’s Mansion is Prince Yan’s Mansion!
At this time, Li Keyong, the Duke of Jin and commander-in-chief of the three armies, was also having a headache.
Luo Yi is a loser?
As one of the leading men stationed in the northern border and the leader of the Sixteen Riders of Yanyun, Luo Yi's strength was naturally clear to him, and he was definitely not inferior to himself.
Although one misstep led to eternal regret, it can also be seen that Huang Chao's methods were by no means comparable to those of ordinary ruffians.
At this time, he had to face this so-called Huang Chao in person, and he was a little worried.
It was not that he was worried that Huang Chao would be difficult to deal with, but that he did not have the advantage of time, location, and people.
After all, what caused this uprising?
Anyone who has any information knows it clearly.
Therefore, what he was facing was not millions of bandits, but tens of millions of disaster victims, and there was no need to suppress them at all.
But he had to obey the order of the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and there were 100,000 elite troops in Liaodong. Even if he couldn't escape unscathed, at least he would be fine.
"Lord Li is worried about repeating Lord Luo's mistakes?"
"Yes, marching and fighting requires favorable weather, favorable terrain, and favorable people. We don't have any of these three at this moment."
The three armies converged at Sishui, and Li Bi, as the military commander, had no decision-making power.
Because he is not a general!
But as the Chief Secretary of the Prince of Yan's Palace, he is in charge of logistics this time, and his mission is the final one.
Because Li Shouxi's mission has never been to massacre, but to appease everyone.
“If there is no favorable weather, we will create it; if there is no favorable location, we will create it; and harmony among people is not a problem at all.
The Marquis only needs to take steady steps. After all, the Prince of Yan is most adept at comforting the victims and winning the hearts of the people. Thinking about it carefully now, His Highness may not be waiting for an opportunity, but Marquis Luo..."
When Li Keyong heard this, his body suddenly shook violently.
A word to wake up the dreamer!
Both Li Keyong and Li Siyuan had a sudden realization that they were in the chess game, becoming one of the thousands of black and white chess pieces.
And a great hand from heaven is controlling the plan and calculating all living beings.
It turns out that everything was calculated by someone.
Even Li Bi, the chief secretary of Prince Yan's Palace, took a long time to understand what was going on.
But Li Keyong and Li Siyuan were both top politicians who were no less than Li Bi. They knew Li Shouxi's purpose and means with just one point.
"Hahaha, I underestimated His Royal Highness Prince Yan."
Li Siyuan also straightened his body and looked fearful.
