Chapter 67 Lying down and getting shot

In fact, Chen Ying guessed well. King Li Shimin of Qin led the Tang army to counterattack Xue Renguo, and the war went very smoothly. Xue Renguo's army was short of food. In order to obtain food and property, Xue Renguo ordered his soldiers to hang the wealthy gentry in Qinzhou upside down, fill his nose with vinegar, and ask them for property.

Moreover, Xue Renguo only brutally persecuted soldiers and was not good at comforting soldiers. Li Shimin led the Tang army to Akabara. Li Shimin learned from Xue Renguo's troops who defected to the Tang camp that they learned that the generals and soldiers under Xue Renguo were divorced, so he ordered the marching general Liang Shi to lure Xue Renguo's subordinates to surrender.

Faced with the temptation of food and high-ranking officials and generous salaries, the Western Qin army, which lost its hearts, quickly formed a chain reaction. Originally, Xue Renguo's general Zong Luohu was killed by Chen Ying in Jingyang. At this time, the only general whom Xue Renguo trusted was Hungan. However, this general from the Qiang tribe was not only stubborn in his head. When he saw that Xue Renguo's army was distorted, he fled hundreds or thousands of soldiers every day. At this time, there were less than 10,000 soldiers around Xue Renguo, and they had no intention of fighting.

He took the order to go out to fight to Xue Renguo, but as soon as he arrived in front of Li Shimin, he knelt down and begged for surrender. Li Shimin led the Tang army to reach Gaoji City without a single arrow. In the middle of the night that day, the people guarding the city went down to the city to surrender. Xue Renguo had no choice but to lead all civil and military officials out of the city to surrender on October 26. Li Shimin and others surrendered more than 30,000 troops and tens of thousands of people in the Western Qin Dynasty.

On November 13, Li Shimin led the Tang army to escort Xue Renguo and his group back to the court and arrived at the city of Chang'an. Li Yuan sent Liu Wenjing to lead all civil and military officials out of the city to welcome Li Shimin.

At this time, Chen Ying learned the whole story, and his regretful heart was regretful. Now Li Shimin is still in the face of great victory, just like a comet hitting the earth, which has attracted everyone's attention at once.

Originally, the rebellion of the sidelines touched the hearts of civil and military officials of the court, but now no one will look at the rebellion of the sidelines. Without the great threat from the northwest of the Western Qin Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty did not have to worry about fighting on both sides, and the passive situation was reversed in an instant.

"Let's take a detour!" Chen Ying thought for a while and said, "It's better not to meet the Qin King's army, otherwise the fun will come!"

As the saying goes, what you are afraid of will come, and before Zhang Huaiwei can convey the order.

Chen Ying heard a riot in front of him.

"You are blind and you don't see clearly. Are you walking this path?" A young general wearing the right guard brigade costume shouted arrogantly: "Get out, get out!"

Duan Zhigan is not a good man and a trustworthy woman. Although he clearly saw that the other party was wearing armor led by the Right Imperial Guard Brigade (the left Imperial Guard was a new army established by Yang Guang in the third year of Daye. It was established in the early Tang Dynasty and was changed to a leading guard after five years of Wude. It belonged to the commanding agency of the imperial guard. Duan Zhigan did not indulge the right Imperial Guard general. Duan Zhigan stepped forward and pushed the young Right Imperial Guard general.

"I just want to leave, why? I just sued the emperor, and I also made sense. Am I not a hero of the Tang Dynasty? In order to quell the rebellion, I also swung my knife to kill the enemy. I cut off three swords, but I didn't even get out of the battle. Who are you? Get out of here."

"You... are looking for death!" the young general roared: "Take this madman!"

More than a dozen soldiers from the right imperial guard rushed forward.

After more than 20 days of marching and training, the soldiers of the Xun Mansions were no longer comparable to those rookies from the past. The more than 1,500 soldiers of the Xun Mansions of the Xun Mansions were neatly stepped out, with swords drawn out, hooks, sickles and spears raised, and arrows were drawn, especially the more than 1,500 soldiers, with murderous auras coming out.

Although the Xun Mansions were to quell the rebellion, all the soldiers in the army had seen blood. The soldiers stained with blood on their hands suddenly had different momentums.

These right guards had never even left Chang'an City. Those who had fought the war had already been transferred to the front line. The remaining soldiers were either related or had never been to the battlefield. When they were forced by the momentum of the Xun Mansion, the brigade's attitude was immediately frightened.

"Do you... want to rebel?"

Chen Ying stepped forward and asked knowingly: "What's going on?"

Duan Zhigan stepped forward and hugged the shoulder of the Right Guard Brigade and said, "It's nothing, this is a neighbor in the Mo Zheng. It's not long time since I saw you, and you are intimate."

If you can become an imperial guard, no matter how good you are, at least you still have the strength. Looking at everyone's attitude towards Chen Ying, he guessed that Chen Ying's identity should be above Duan Zhishen. However, Chen Ying's age is the biggest problem. With his young and high position, he must be from a wealthy and noble.

Such a person is not something that he can offend with a small voyage leader.

"Is it?" Duan Zhigan looked at the other party and was stunned on the spot, and couldn't help but increase the force on his arm.

The right guard brigade suddenly felt difficulty breathing: "Yes...yes..."

"Go into the city quickly, you're so fucking trouble!"

Chen Ying said: "Enter the city!"

More than 1,500 soldiers from the two palaces of Xun were lined up in five rows, with their heads raised and their chests raised, and their eyes were not squinted. They were like one person, with more than 1,500 people raising their legs in an orderly manner, and their steps were not too big or small, just like a ruler, and the pace of their steps was neat and shocking.

The three major steps in later generations, regardless of whether they have improved their combat effectiveness, have a very strong visual effect.

The people entering the city were stunned by the soldiers of the Xun Palace. The people of Chang'an who did not know the truth were discussed.

"Who led the soldiers? The military discipline is so strict. There are so many people who don't even speak!"

"You don't understand this, this is the most elite black armored iron cavalry under His Highness Qin!"

"Shit."

The people who watched the fun immediately started to squirt.

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. If you have a black armored iron cavalry, where are their horses?"

At this moment, the infantry from the four regiments in front slowly walked past, and the Yue Cavalry Regiment led by Zhang Shigui was pressed by the end.

"Look, isn't the Xuan Armored Iron Cavalry coming?"

"Hey, it's true."

"It's amazing. It's fine if this person is walking in the same way, even the beast can be in the same pace!"

"No wonder His Highness of Qin can sweep Western Qin within ten months. Who can compete with such a tiger and wolf army in the world?"

A young literati with a slightly fat figure in the crowd listened to the discussion in the crowd, and his face became more and more gloomy. This young man with a slightly fat figure was no one else, but was the brother-in-law of King Li Shimin of Qin, and the brother Changsun Wuji of Princess Changsun Wugui.

Changsun Wuji, who was not very scheming, was so angry that his nose was crooked. He rushed to Lei Yongji, the commander of the Qin Prince's Mansion, who was the guardian of Qin, and said, "Who are the people who just passed by?"

Lei Yongji said: "It should be the Xun Palace, the right guard of the Eastern Palace. The Zhechong Duwei was Chen Ying, who made great contributions in Jingyang City!"

"Hmph, Chen Ying!" Changsun Wuji wrote down this name in his heart. Chen Ying was young and had such ability to train troops. If there was a time, would it be great? The King of Qin and Prince Li Jiancheng were in a disagreement, which was almost an open secret in Chang'an City.

The King of Qin and Li Jiancheng each have their own advantages. Li Jiancheng is Li Yuan's eldest son. From the perspective of Confucian legislation, Li Jiancheng is the legal first heir of Li Tang, and the position of the prince is expected to be the most popular. Almost all the Guanlong aristocratic groups and the Shandong aristocratic families are on Li Jiancheng's side.

Li Shimin has supreme prestige in the army, especially the generals from poor backgrounds who possess Li Shimin very much. If Li Jiancheng has such a person who is good at training troops, Li Jiancheng's military shortcomings can be made up immediately. Changsun Wuji muttered secretly: "Chen Ying must be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise he will become a major concern."

Chen Ying probably wouldn't have thought that he would be jealous of Changsun Wuji at this time.
