Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Originally, Li Changlin wanted to steal the goods and went directly to Shaanxi Pass.

But thinking that there are so many people in his party, if he goes to Shaanxi Pass in such a arrogant manner, he will definitely attract the attention of the guards in the city.

Moreover, with such a big thing happening in Shangzhou City, it was hard to guarantee whether someone would go to the surrounding cities to report the news after he left.

So he simply ordered the massacre of the city without stopping, and then disguised his soldiers as Minzhuang.

In the name of escorting the craftsmen, he took them all the way to Shaanxi Pass.

Sure enough, his trick worked.

When Li Ji, the guard general of Shaanxi Pass, heard that he was escorting craftsmen to strengthen the defense of Shaanxi Pass, without saying anything, he directly asked someone to open the city gate and let him in.

After entering the city, Li Changlin, after seeing Li Ji, immediately sent people to secretly inquire about Yiying's defenses in the city, and got in touch with the Northern Zhou Dynasty's Xizuo in the city, and made an agreement with the other party to prepare for an internal and external cooperation and take the opportunity to capture Shaanxi. close.

After two days of preparation, Li Changlin had an overview of the situation in the city and knew that the Northern Zhou army outside the city would arrive in the afternoon.

I originally thought of a plan to quietly open the city gate tonight, let the Northern Zhou army enter the city, cooperate inside and outside, kill Li Ji, and capture Shaanxi Pass.

Unexpectedly, before he could take action, Li Ji, the guard general of Shaanxi Pass, led his troops out of the city at such a critical time.

Li Changlin almost jumped up when he heard the news that Li Ji was leaving the city.

If I missed such a God-given opportunity, wouldn't it be like a thunderbolt?

Immediately, he directly contacted the commander in the city and passed on the news that Li Ji was leaving the city, so that the Northern Zhou army could come as soon as possible.

Then, another group of men was sent out of the city on the pretext of going out for hunting, and ambush Li Ji on his way back to the city, hoping to kill him.

Finally, he asked all the soldiers distributed in the city to be alert and wait for his orders to act.

After doing all this, Li Changlin felt that everything was safe. Now he just waited for the Northern Zhou army to arrive, and then cooperated with the outside to capture Shaanxi Guoguan.

Don't you know that as soon as he and his people entered the city, they were secretly monitored by Li Ji who had been prepared for a long time.

All of Li Changlin's deployments and arrangements naturally did not escape Li Ji's eye.

In addition to meeting Li Shimin, Li Ji left the city this time for another reason, which was to lure the snake out of its hole.

Rather than letting the Northern Zhou army rest and recuperate before launching a sneak attack, it would be better to take the initiative to expose weaknesses and attract the enemy to attack.

In this way, he not only takes the initiative and waits for work, but also allows the enemy to have no time to rest and arrange, and acting in haste is bound to be full of flaws.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven.

When Li Ji stopped Li Shimin's army and informed Li Shimin everything.

The other party also praised Li Ji's approach very much.

To be on the safe side, Li Shimin directly ordered the troops to rest where they were.

This break will cause problems.

Previously, Chu Mo also ordered a rest not far from Shaanxi Guanwai in order to prevent his whereabouts from being leaked.

The place where Li Shimin's army stopped to rest was not far from the place where Chu Mo rested.

Although Chu Mo and the others had discovered Li Shimin's whereabouts long ago, they had already ordered their evacuation.

But because thousands of people stayed here for two days and two nights, the traces of life and activities left behind cannot be hidden no matter what.

All in all, after Li Shimin ordered to rest in place, some soldiers entered the jungle and discovered the traces left by Chu Mo and others.This discovery was immediately informed to Li Shimin.

When he and Li Ji heard that there was a suspected army stationed and recuperating around them, they were really shocked.

And he personally took people to the place where Chu Mo and the others were stationed to inspect it. After confirming that there was indeed someone stationed here for a long time, Li Shimin immediately realized something.

He asked Li Ji carefully, and after asking clearly about the contents of Queen Changsun's letter, he quickly came to a conclusion.

The team stationed here is probably Chu Mo's troublemaker.

The other party probably wanted to use the tip to bypass Shaanxi Pass and go to the Great Zhou Dynasty while the defenders of Shaanxi Pass were fighting with the rebels.

Li Shimin suddenly felt angry when he thought of this.

Good Chu Mo, you and Cui Yingying were in a bitter fight, life and death, but you, Chu Mo, came here quietly.

Immediately, he ordered to search the mountain and must pull out this giant rat and cut it into pieces.

However, as soon as the order was issued, Li Ji objected.

"Your Majesty, the battle of Shaanhaoguan is about to begin, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty is about to launch a large-scale invasion. If those spies are informed of the existence of you and this supporting army at this time, the other party will probably give up because of this."

"Instead of trying to scare the enemy now, it is better to let Chu Mo's traitor go first. When the time comes, we only need to repel the Northern Zhou army, and then use a move to close the door and beat the dog. Wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?"

After hearing what Li Ji said, Li Shimin gradually calmed down.

The other party was indeed right. Chu Mo was indeed nothing to worry about now. The real enemy was the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

As long as the Northern Zhou Dynasty is defeated, Chu Mo will be nothing more than a clown.

The only thing I'm worried about is the safety of Guanyin and Gao Ming.

Thinking of this, he immediately asked someone to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote a letter to Chu Mo himself, and then handed it to the guard beside him and said:

"You lead a team of people, go into the mountains to find Chu Mo for me, and hand this letter into his hands."

"Tell him that as long as my queen and prince are sent back safely, I can be lenient in this matter."

After hearing this, the guard immediately took the letter, turned around, and led people into the mountain to search for Chu Mo.

At this time, Chu Mo immediately felt that he was about to suffer after seeing the news of Li Shimin's arrival.

So he didn't stop for a moment, just asked someone to tidy up briefly, and then hid in the forest.

Although he knew that the traces he left would most likely be discovered by Li Shimin, Chu Mo couldn't care less now.

After entering the forest, he did not dare to go too deep.

After all, there are many poisonous insects, snakes and ants in the jungle. There are thousands of people in my group, and there is a lack of medical treatment. If we go deeper, who knows what we will encounter, and how many people will be left alive.

It had already been done. If Li Shimin really searched the mountain by force, he would take his men and use Queen Changsun and Li Chengqian as hostages to force the other party to let him go.

Unexpectedly, the people who searched the mountain did not wait, but instead waited for Li Shimin's letter.

When Chu Mo heard that Li Shimin sent someone to bring him a letter instead of a sword, he was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

You know, you have captured his wife and children, and the other party knew that you were here, didn't you send someone to arrest him quickly, and then sent you a message?Could it be that the other party no longer wants his wife and children?Want to use your own hands to kill people and silence them?
