[Rebirth] Anecdote of Li Tang

The army marched all the way east to Luoyang, advancing and fighting.But in March, all the counties and counties around Luoyang were destroyed by the Tang army.Luoyang City, which was originally surrounded by stars, has now become an isolated city.

Luoyang was not easy to fight. This was something that all military generals agreed with at that time.

Compared with Chang'an in Xijing, the precautionary measures in Luoyang, the eastern capital, were impregnable after being vigorously repaired by Emperor Sui Yang.Even if the troops of the Tang army marched to the city of Luoyang in such a mighty manner, there was no chance of winning by force.

Wang Shichong must have seen this too. He stayed out of the city and allowed Tang Jun to provoke him under the city, but kept silent.

Xin Xin led Li Chengqian, looked up at Luoyang City from the crowd of troops, and sighed softly: "Wang Shichong intends to exhaust us to the end..."

As soon as Xin Xin finished speaking, he heard a sneer from his side.Looking over suspiciously, he saw a bearded general looking at him.

"Don't worry, Wang Shichong won't hold on for long." The general saw that he was looking over, and started talking to him.

"Why did the general say that?" Ying Xin was a little puzzled by his determination.

"I used to work under Wang Shichong's tent. He treated his subordinates as soon as he was called and left as soon as he was called. In fact, Wang's subordinates were full of resentment, but they were suffering because they had no chance to surrender. "

"There is such a thing?" Xin Xin was a little surprised, because he was in the camp of the Tang army, and all he saw were the scenes of harmony among the generals.Unexpectedly, this is the situation in Wang Shichong's army.

The general smiled disdainfully: "What's so strange, Wang Shichong is an old man with a wicked face. He greets you with a smile when he needs you, and he doesn't care about his subordinates when he doesn't need you. Anyone who is related to relatives or old friends can be like a fish in water in the king's court."

As soon as the general said it, he understood how weak the cohesion of Wang Shichong's army was.He has witnessed this journey with his own eyes, and now that Wang Shichong is closed to the city, there will always be a day when the food storage in the city will be in a hurry.When food is gone, people's hearts will naturally be unstable.An already fragile system of monarchs and ministers will inevitably give birth to traitors.At that time, I am afraid that there will be a surrender of Kaesong.

Li Chengqian yawned immediately, and immediately drew Xin Xin's attention back: "Your Majesty is tired, do you want some water?"

Li Chengqian just stared at Xinxin for a while, but didn't answer.It wasn't until Xin Xin picked up the water bag and drank it that he took two or three sips from his hand.

Ever since Li Chengqian recognized the identity of Xinxin, he would often do things that others would laugh at but made Xin feel ambiguous.After drinking the water, he yawned lightly.After a while, he received the order to set up camp outside Luoyang City.

Li Shimin's fight was indeed a plan to spend with Wang Shichong.Luoyang City is indeed a prosperous and prosperous place. If it is accessible, economic prosperity will become its advantage.But once besieged, Luoyang City fell into a desperate situation.

So many people in the city need food and various living materials, even if Luoyang City has abundant food reserves, so what?If he doesn't want Luoyang to become a dead city, the only thing Wang Shichong can do is to surrender the city.

From the moment Li Shimin besieged the city, Luoyang became a purgatory on earth.In the first three to five days, the common people did not notice anything unusual.Gradually, some people began to think about fleeing.Wang Shichong's tyrannical nature was fully exposed at this moment.Neighbors should sit together one after another, and if anyone flees is found, the neighbors will suffer.

The unarmed people are indeed the best to deal with. Under the torture, they dare not flee, but they also have no food.In the end, the once prosperous Luoyang City became a "dead city" full of mourning and starvation.

Compared with the despair in the city, the Tang army outside the city is quite safe, victory is a matter of time for them.Li Shimin's mood also swept away the haze of these days, he even picked up Li Chengqian and let Li Chengqian ride on his shoulders.A group of generals and soldiers were delighted to watch the excitement, cheering and applauding.

Li Chengqian occupied a good visual position and searched for satisfaction in the crowd.Like everyone else, Xin was laughing unsteadily in the crowd.Li Chengqian's heart suddenly seemed to be pricked by something.He thought of his previous life, and his satisfied smile was always faint.He had never seen it before, and she laughed as wantonly as before.

He likes to see Xin laugh like this, without restraint, without pretense, a smile from the heart.

The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye they had been away for almost five months.Li Chengqian was completely crazy, and Li Shimin no longer restrained him when he was outside the mansion.He mixed with Xin Xin, Ri Ri and the generals of the army, and evolved from the spoiled little son at the beginning to the mud monkey of today.

Sometimes, he would have sudden convulsions.For example, if you see a general's paw resting on Xin Xin's shoulder again.Xinxin loves to laugh, and has a strong affinity. Those elders in the army often put their paws on his shoulders and don't let go.

Whenever this time, Li Chengqian would sneak attack those generals' feet.From the beginning when the sneak attack failed, he was laughed hard, and then gradually got the trick, and after the sneak attack was successful, he was rewarded with a satisfying and clear laughter.Time flies in such day and night together.

When she was quiet, Xinxin would silently help Li Chengqian pick off the grass stalks on his forehead, with gentle and meticulous movements.Whenever Li Chengqian showed the satisfied expression of being successfully groomed, Xinxin would pat him on the back lightly: "It's really a monkey, it's so dirty."

Li Chengqian did not admit defeat, and purposely brought his dirty paws closer to Xinxin, and tried his best to smear two handfuls of mud on his face.The two rolled together in a funny way, and Yixin was crushed by Li Chengqian just like that.

Li Chengqian didn't move, he looked at the face he hated the most, desperately trying to see the familiar person through him.Yixin also looked at Li Chengqian intently, and only when she got closer did she realize that there were too many emotions hidden in those bright eyes, as if they were about to burst out at any time.

After staring at it for a while, she abruptly moved her gaze away.These uncontrollable and indulging days made his heart soften unconsciously.Today, he dare not think about the mixed taste of sweet and sour in his heart.

Seeing him dodging, Li Chengqian just touched his nose and released the suppression of his heart.

These days, he has learned a trick from the generals: playing hard to get.

He even snapped his fingers and counted the days from before him to adulthood one by one, wishing to crush and prolong every moment.

He is not in a hurry now, and he will never ask questions like "Are you satisfied?"Li Chengqian patiently weaved a net, using warmth as a bait, waiting for his heart to throw himself into the net.

Five months is a long time for all men who are away from home.Every day, Li Shimin would send out outposts to inquire about the situation in Luoyang City, but every time he got the same answer, Wang Shichong just did not open the city.

Tang Jun also changed from the initial high spirits and complacency to the current silence, and the army was shrouded in exhaustion.

Everyone, probably even Li Shimin, is thinking about going through the last moment again.As long as they survive, Luoyang will be theirs.

After taking Luoyang and eliminating Wang Shichong, most of the Central Plains will be in their hands.A beautiful vision is always inspiring. In the competition between the two parties, Tang Jun's spiritual strength undoubtedly gained the upper hand.

But even so, Li Shimin had to admit that Tang Jun was exhausted.Different from the exhaustion of high-intensity wars every day, this kind of exhaustion is a kind of blank waiting, which is enough to kill the brightest spark in people's hearts.

Li Shimin saw more and more generals throwing stones on the iron walls of Luoyang City, and his heart became more and more anxious.At this time, the generals were surprised to find that the most energetic ones were Xin Xin and Li Chengqian.These two are like mascots in the army, attracting people's attention wherever they go.

No one knows that their way of getting along with each other seemingly as enemies, but inside is extremely harmonious, is actually a kind of affection.If Li Shimin knew that his own son had talked about love before the battle, he might faint on the spot.

Finally, in countless days and nights, Tang Jun finally waited for a little twists and turns.Everyone worked hard, but to everyone's surprise, what they waited for was not Wang Shichong's surrender, but the news that Dou Jiande, who was far away in Hebei, had dispatched an army to Luoyang.

Dou Jiande also played a bit of a literati, and wrote a "sincerely spoken" letter to Li Shimin, with a hint of accusation in the letter.I warned Li Shimin that the three-pointed world is now in the stage of balance, and if Li Shimin insists on destroying Wang Shichong and destroying this balance, then he has no choice but to send troops to attack Li Shimin.

One stone caused a thousand waves, and this letter was widely circulated among Tang Jun's ranks.When Yixin and Li Chengqian read the letter, they both saw deep worry in each other's eyes.

Almost all the soldiers of the Tang army fell into a dilemma after a brief rage.Even Li Shimin didn't expect that Dou Jiande would get involved at this time.

The exhausted Tang Jun, although there was a hint of resentment in his tone when he mentioned the recent invincible Dou Jiande army, but more, it was exhausted and natural fear.

One is the tiger and wolf division with a sharp blade just out of its sheath, and the other is a tired army who has been away for a long time and is eager to return.Even if they don't admit it, there is indeed a big difference in strength.

Whether to continue to besiege Luoyang, or return to Chang'an to recuperate first, has become a dilemma that hangs over everyone's mind.
