Chapter 176: Will the king be unacceptable to the orders of the outside king

"What qualifications do you have to judge me?" Zhu Can looked at Chen Ying with his eyes squinted, and smiled coldly: "Just rely on you? The person who can decide my life and death in the world can be old man Li Yuan or Wang Shichong. At the least, Li Shimin should be. When will it be your turn!"

"You..." Chen Ying was furious and instantly pulled out the horizontal knife and pressed it against Zhu Can's throat with a sharp blade. Just need some force on Chen Ying's wrist, a big bloody hole would appear in Zhu Can's throat, and Zhu Can's blood would flow in just a stick of incense.

At this moment, Chen Ying clearly saw a look of relief in Zhu Can's eyes, and finally understood what was going on. Chen Ying slowly put away the horizontal knife and put the knife into the sheath.

Zhu Can was stunned for a moment and smiled coldly, "What? Are you afraid? Let me loosen my ties, otherwise you will be in trouble!"

"Haha... Let you die clearly." Chen Ying laughed to the sky and said, "There is no need to use the provocation method against this general. When you eat the first person, you commit a death sentence. God will not accept you, I will accept you! It's not that easy for you to die."

A hint of panic appeared in Zhu Can's eyes, and although it only flashed, it was still keenly captured by Chen Ying.

"Come here!" Chen Ying shouted coldly: "Give him some color!"

"I'll do it!" Zhou Qing raised his whip and whipped it hard at Zhu Can.

"Baba..." Two blood marks appeared on Zhu Can's face instantly, but Zhu Can was tough and cursed at Chen Ying. However, seeing him being rude, Guo Luo quickly stepped forward and stuffed a smelly sock into Zhu Can's mouth.

Chen Ying originally wanted to give Zhu Can a public trial meeting, but it was raining heavily, and he was quite helpless. What's more, since Dou Jiande's army is advancing westward, Chen Ying doesn't want to cause trouble in vain.

"Five horses dismembered!"

"The car cracked!"

"Lingchi!"

"Crush!"

"Fire burning"

Chen Ying discussed with the generals how to deal with this cannibalism. At this moment, Guo Luo said: "General, why not give this Zhu Can to Zhou Chengdong..."

When Chen Ying heard the name of Zhou Chengdong, he immediately remembered that when Zhou Chengdong was in Jinsha Town, he didn't even torture Wang Xuanqiong, which scared Wang Xuanqiong to pee. Of course, Wang Xuanqiong had no way to compare with Zhu Can, but it was obvious that Zhou Chengdong was a very ideal candidate.

"Let Zhou Chengdong come over!" Chen Ying said: "Tell Zhou Chengdong that if Zhu Can dies before being killed by 3,600, I will only ask him!"

...

Wang Shichong made a lot of calculations, but he missed the variable Chen Ying. His wisdom and strategies were learned from the Han people. The teacher only laughed at the apprentice's skills when he saw him.

If it weren't for Chen Ying's withdrawal from Beimeng Camp, he wouldn't have dared to launch a dragon gate ambush. But just when Wang Shichong thought Chen Ying would be at ease to open up wastelands and store land in Xin'an, Chen Ying actually rushed to the dragon gate from Xin'an and rescued Li Shimin, who was trapped in the Jedi.

It was precisely because of Zhu Can's stubbornness that Wang Shichong saw the hope of defeating Chen Ying and defeating the Tang army, but he never expected that Chen Ying would set up a backup plan. At the critical moment, the elite troops arranged by Chen Ying suddenly came out, and when he didn't even have time to rescue, he captured Zhu Can's alive and annihilated Zhu Can's troops.

"Defeated..." Wang Renze also sighed. This was not a simple defeat, but a heavy defeat that lost 90% of the centaurs!

Just when Wang Shichong was worried, Duan Da smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are actually worried. Although this battle is just a small setback, as long as King Dou Jiande of Xia leads his army to Luoyang, he will defeat the Tang army without fighting."

Wang Shichong shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. Li Tang is now full of soldiers and generals, and they lose 100,000 troops. They can afford to lose. As long as Li Yuan's old man is willing, he can definitely transfer troops from Hexi or Bashu to advance eastward. At that time, our Great Zheng State will definitely be more passive."

Duan Da smiled and said, "The old minister got a news that the Turkic Khan was critically ill and could not get out of bed for more than a month. If nothing unexpected happened, the two sons of Khan were still young and could not convince the public. According to the Turkic custom, they would definitely choose one of the younger brothers set by Ashinashiliver and succeed the Khan throne."

Wang Shichong said in confusion: "What does this have to do with our Great Zheng State? Could it be that you let me learn from Liu Wuzhou, the shameless person, to worship the Turkic bastard?"

Duan Da shook his head and said, "The old minister absolutely does not have this intention. Liu Wuzhou and Liang Shidu are like jackals. If they cannot guard the house and protect the house for their master, they will be dead. What the old minister wants to say is that Asunashiliver has three adult younger brothers, namely Asunadu, Asunabulis, and Asunayugu. Among them, Asunadu has the strongest strength and the most corpses. Of course, he is also most likely to become the new Khan!"

Wang Shichong had not had dealt with the Turks, and he knew a little bit about the customs of the Turks. The biggest difference between the Turks and the Central Plains is that once the Central Plains dynasty appeared, they would be determined to save them without exception. However, the Turks were just on the contrary. They had to establish the authority and prestige of the new Khan through one or several large-scale wars. Even after Shibi Khan's death, Chuluo Khan succeeded to the throne, and he had to launch the Battle of Hedong when he was defeated just now, with the purpose of continuing this tradition.

Wang Shichong instantly understood Duan Da's meaning. Once Asuna Dun, Asuna Bulis, and Asuna Gu, whoever succeeds to become the Khan position, must choose a goal to break through.

However, at the end of last year, the Turkic people in Hebei also suffered a great loss. Dou Jiande's subordinate Liu Heita cooperated with 5,000 infantry and 3,000 cavalry in Yi County, annihilated more than 10,000 Turkic cavalry under the command of Fulishi, and captured more than 5,000 of them. The Chuluo Khan had to over 10,000 good horses and exchanged them from Dou Jiande for Empress Xiao of the Sui Dynasty and Yang Zhengdao, son of King Yang of Qi, and established Yang Zhengdao as the King of Sui Dynasty, succeeding Sui Ye.

At this time, Dou Jiande actually made the Turks afraid. After all, although Dou Jian advanced westward with 300,000 troops, there was a boast of the 300,000 troops, Dou Jiande's troops were the real number, but not boasting. In terms of the number of soldiers, Dou Jiande was actually not weaker than Li Tang.

Then, the problem is. Once the Turks find that Dou Jiande is a hard bone and is difficult to chew, and Liang Shidu is also a front pawn of the Turks, the Turks have only a breakthrough point, either attacking the Hexi or Hetao areas of the Tang Kingdom, or attacking the Hedong areas, or even attacking Youzhou.

After all, Luo Yi was nominally the King of Yan of the Tang Kingdom and the general manager of Youzhou.

No matter which direction the Turks took as a breakthrough, it was actually no longer important. What was important was that Li Yuan would definitely not be able to draw troops to support Li Shimin. Li Shimin and Chen Ying's tens of thousands of remnants were alone, despite the weak field battles, it would be difficult for them to conquer Luoyang.

However, at this moment, Wang Shichong suddenly remembered the poisonous smoke cartridge in Chen Ying's hand and said worriedly: "When will the Turks launch an attack on the Tang Kingdom? We have no choice at this moment. The Turks need to grazle in spring and gain weight for war horses. I think it will be at most until midsummer or after autumn, but can our Luoyang City be defended until autumn?"

Duan Da was stunned and hesitated: "This... this is indeed a problem!"

At this moment, Wang Renze said: "I have a way to help Your Majesty defend Luoyang City and ensure that Chen Ying'er dare not attack Luoyang!"

Wang Shichong was overjoyed when he heard this, "What's the solution?"

Wang Renze whispered softly in Wang Shichong's ear.

Upon hearing this, a hint of cruelty and ferociousness appeared on Wang Shichong's face, which made Duan Da feel chill.

...

In the tent of the Central Army Commander of the Beimeng Daying, Li Shimin stared at a circle of maps of rivers and mountains during the Sui Dynasty. This picture was a treasure map hidden in the Chang'an Secretary-General. Li Shimin stared at the map, especially the Turkic sphere of influence that was painted red, and his eyebrows were not shining: "I always feel that something will happen in the north!"

"What happened?" Fang Xuanling asked in surprise.

"Well, I have this premonition." Li Shimin nodded and said, "Our overall strategy before the Tang Dynasty was to attack the east and defend the west. After pacifying Xue Ju and Li Gui and occupying Hexi, we gave up some of the advantages that we might have gained on the Western Front, in order to maintain the stability of the rear as much as possible and devote all our manpower and material resources to the eastern expedition. But now, the development of the east has temporarily suffered setbacks. Judging from some clues on the recent Western Front, the side effects of the strategy seem to be emerging, so I think. Maybe it's time to adjust."

"First the west and then the east, attack the west and defend the west" is the largest overall strategy collectively formulated by Li Yuan, Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Li Xiuning, Pei Ji, and Liu Wenjing, Yin Kaishan, Liu Hongji and other heroes who created the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Li Xiaoji, who went south to Bashu, was actually a partial army of the Tang Dynasty, with less than 30,000 troops. His original intention was to occupy Hanzhong and protect the gateway to the southwest of the Tang Dynasty. However, he did not expect that Li Xiaogong would almost encounter decent resistance like he had a cheat. In a short period of time, he took over the land of the forty-three states of Bashu and captured the country of Tianfu. Even in this case, the Tang Dynasty's strategy did not change, but continued to attack and defend the west first.

There is something unexpected. Especially last year, Li Yuanji lost Hedong, which almost completely reversed the overall strategic form of the Tang Dynasty. Once it changes, the internal and external situation of the Tang Dynasty will be completely reversed. So this is no longer just a matter of the military. Changes and support in internal affairs will also play a key role.

"It moves the whole body with one move!" Fang Xuanling sighed and said, "It is not a good time to change the overall strategy at this time!"

Du Ruhui nodded and said, "The advantages of each other are more important than each other, and the disadvantages are less important than each other. If we want to change now, I am afraid that the efforts of the previous year will be gone!"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes, this is the place of difficulty. If the Emperor's intention is to reach this point, the Tang Dynasty will turn to Hexi and then plan to plan later. Once this happens, the death of tens of thousands of Guanzhong athletes will become meaningless."

At this moment, Li Shimin suddenly punched the table hard: "I have decided that I will not accept the orders of the outside king."

Changsun Wuji's face changed and he stepped forward and advised, "Your Highness, don't be impulsive. If you make Your Majesty displeased, it will be very detrimental to Your Majesty!"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui nodded in agreement.

Li Shimin said disapprovingly: "If something happens, I will take it alone!"

"But..." Changsun Wuji wanted to persuade him again.

Li Shimin changed the topic and said, "What is General Chen doing?"

Du Ruhui said: "Oh, General Chen is still in the prisoner camp!"

"Let's go and have a look!" Li Shimin took the lead in rushing into the rain curtain.
