Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"The death of Li Ji was personally reported in Shaanxi Guan, and everyone knows about it. This is no longer a secret."

Chu Xiang looked at Lin Wan with a livid face and argued with reason.

"Haha, what everyone knows, is that true?"

"Did you see Li Ji's body with your own eyes, or did you kill Li Ji with your own hands?"

"All this is just your hearsay."

Lin Wan looked at Chu Xiang with a look of gloating, and said word by word:

"I tell you, Li Ji is living well now."

"Not only is he alive and well, but Li Shimin also led an army and is currently stationed less than 10 miles away from Shaanxi Guanguan, waiting to catch you all."

"How about it, are you surprised or surprised?"

Seeing Lin Wan speaking so calmly and calmly, Chu Xiang's heart sank to the bottom.

"Is everything you say true?"

With a hint of luck, Chu Xiang opened his mouth tremblingly and asked again.

Lin Wan snorted coldly:

"Don't you know whether what I said is true or not?"

"But...but before, the other party could clearly kill me, but why did it suddenly give up and stop tracking?"

"And in the previous attack, that loser Li Changlin didn't know how to use artillery. The opponent could obviously launch an attack directly at the first opportunity. Why did he wait until he got close before letting people launch artillery attacks?"

As if to refute Lin Wan's words, Chu Xiang kept finding various reasons and excuses for himself.

"Haha, why don't I kill you?"

"Chu Xiang, if the other party doesn't kill you, it's just because of your stupidity."

"Because, in their eyes, a stupid Zhou general sitting in Shaanzhou is much easier to deal with than a smart Zhou general who is good at conquering and fighting."

"Kill you. If Her Majesty the Empress sends a tiger general like Hou Junji and Su Dingfang, do you think Li Ji can still defend Shaanxi Guoguan?"

"Or do you think that Li Shimin, the charioteer, is marching in person just for the head of the guardian of a small town like yours?"

Hearing that Lin Wan dared to say that he was stupid, Chu Xiang was so angry that he almost burst into rage on the spot.

But later when he heard that Li Shimin was marching in person and looking determined, Chu Xiang's heart slowly calmed down.

Yes, aside from the other party saying that he was stupid, if Li Shimin really went on a personal expedition, how could the other party's purpose be comparable to that of a small guardian like himself?

The other party must have some agenda when they come here this time.

Conspiracy?

wrong!

Thinking of this, Chu Xiang suddenly woke up, looked at Lin Wan with a solemn face and said:

"I wonder what General Lin's intention is in informing me of such an important matter?"

"Don't tell me. We are all ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This is what you should do. You should leave this lie to deceive a three-year-old child and go home to coax the child."

Hearing Chu Xiang's ridicule, Lin Wan did not show any anger at all, but said bluntly:

"I came here this time to cooperate with you."

"Before, I did a big thing in Chang'an. Someone very important to me came here with me and was trapped outside the Shaanxi Guanguan opposite."

With that said, Lin Wan told the story of how she and Chu Mo made a big fuss in Chang'an, captured Empress Changsun and Li Chengqian, and then teamed up with the Cui family to trick Li Shimin.

Of course, when she narrated, she did not directly mention Chu Mo's name, but only said that the other party was one of her partners.

Now they have captured Empress Changsun and Li Chengqian because they don't want to give up Paoze, who they once fought with, and want to take them safely through Shaanxi Guan and return to the Great Zhou Dynasty.

After listening to Lin Wan's narration, although Chu Xiang was full of doubts, he was even more curious about the mysterious partner the other party mentioned.

But since Lin Wan didn't take the initiative to mention the other party's name, and also wanted to hide it, at this juncture, she couldn't make any extraneous inquiries.

Anyway, as long as he captures Shaanxi Guoguan and repels Li Ji and Li Shimin, the opponent will definitely pass through here.

As long as the other party dares to pass through Shaanxi Guan, then I will hope to discover the other party's identity by then, so why rush now?

Thinking of this, Chu Xiang changed his previous solemnity and quickly put on a smiling face and said:

"Then I wonder what General Lin's plan is? How can I cooperate?"

"As long as we can capture Shaanxi Guoguan and defeat Li Shimin, the 86000 people left in the hands of the last general and the last general will all be handed over to you."

Seeing Chu Xiang taking the initiative to lower his posture and humbly asking for advice, Lin Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the tricks I learned after staying with that scoundrel for so long are still quite effective.

Even though I knew that Chu Xiang's attitude was basically false and mostly used.

But Lin Wan didn't care at all. After all, he came here with the intention of taking advantage of the other party.

Both parties make use of each other and get what they need, without any problems.

Finally, after some discussion, the two reached a cooperation agreement.

That is, Lin Wan helped Chu Xiang, saw through the conspiracy of Li Shimin and Li Ji, and captured Shaanxi Guoguan.

As for Chu Xiang, he must help Lin Wan to safely send a group of troops outside Shaanxi Guan into the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

After that, the two discussed the battle plan for tomorrow, and then Lin Wan said goodbye and left.

At this time, a group of generals in Shaanxi Guan received Li Ji's battle plan.

When they saw the battle plan, they all looked in disbelief.

Despite all the reluctance in their hearts, the soldiers' obedience to their vocation forced them to act according to Li Ji's plan.

As time went by, the sky soon turned white.

Just when the sun radiated its first ray of light, the two sides started a fierce battle again.

What was different from last night's raid was that Chu Xiang directly commanded the battle this time.

She did not send her soldiers forward to die, but took advantage of the range of Dazhou's artillery to launch an indiscriminate sweep of the Shaanxi Guan.

However, as if they had long been familiar with the opponent's fighting style, at the moment when the artillery of the Great Zhou Dynasty opened fire, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who had been prepared on the city wall quickly hid in various bunkers behind the city wall to avoid the opponent's indiscriminate bombardment. fry.

As for the artillery in Shaanxi Guan, they did not launch an attack because of the difference in the range of the artillery between the two sides.

The artillery fire lasted for half an hour.

After cleaning all the walls on the Shaanxi Guan Temple, Chu Xiang gave the order to let the remaining 6000-strong vanguard army from last night drag their exhausted bodies slowly towards Shaanxi. Guo Guan moved away.
