v4 Chapter 63： Alienation

The official encirclement of Yizhou was completed, and the outermost trenches were excavated. At the same time, the army set up its defensive formation and made full preparations for the enemy and defense.

There are about 400,000 officers and men attacking the east of the river. Except for the defensive army that opened the Qinzhou city and the West Road army belonging to Liu Dazheng, the East Road army gathered in Yizhou at this moment is about 250,000.

The Hedong Army gathered a total of about 300,000. Qinzhou had suffered 10,000 deaths and injuries in the First World War, and the Fenzhou battle was also damaged. There is also a need to subtract non-mobile forces such as the states and counties and the northern border garrison. Li Ke uses an army that can be called at will, in his early 200s.

With 200,000 mobile troops, there are 70,000 in Yizhou City, all under the command of Li Cunxiao. Li Keyong has returned to Taiyuan, and it is possible to send reinforcements at any time. Judging from the current situation, the official army's chances of attacking Yizhou City are not great. If Li Ke sends reinforcements to the army, the situation will be even more unfavorable for the official army.

However, Li Yuan was not worried about the reinforcements in Taiyuan. First, the official army had already dug out the tortuous trenches surrounding the city outside Yizhou City. In other words, even if the reinforcements of Taiyuan City arrived, it would be difficult to enter the city, and the defenders of Yizhou City would be difficult to get out of the city to cope with internal and external attacks.

In this case, Li Zhi sent Kang Chengqian to lead the Zhao Yi Army to attack Yushe County in the west of Yizhou, Pingcheng County in the northwest, and Heshun County in the north. The intention is to completely cut off the communication channel between Yizhou and Taiyuan, completely turn Yizhou into a beast in a cage, and trap it to death.

For the city defender, the city has two failures. One is the inadequate defense of the city, including scarce guards, scarce supplies and equipment, and centrifugation of the people. The second is no foreign aid. A besieged city without rescue is called a dead city, and it will break sooner or later.

Under normal circumstances, once the trenches that blocked the city were successfully excavated, Li Zhi's tactics of making people unable to attack and defend and hopelessly were enough to trap Yizhou City. It was only a matter of time to win.

But now facing Li Cunxiao, Li Xun did not want to take it lightly.

The current arrangement is only to reduce the strength that Li Cunxiao can use to a minimum. It is an arrangement to stabilize the battle situation. He cannot guarantee that Li Cunxiao will have no choice, especially if Li Ke uses the cooperation.

Therefore, Li Yan began to implement the divisive plan in full swing.

First of all, he came to the city alone and asked Li Cunxiao to leave the city.

In order to protect Li Cunxiao and support the battle of defending the city, there are many Buddha immortals in Yizhou City. It is difficult to say whether there are any masters in Tianxianjing. However, Li Zhi left the army with such grandeur, and volley came to the city of Yizhou, facing a city alone, and invited Li Cunxiao to come out and meet.

Not only did Li Ye come alone, but he went to the Baizhang area in front of the Yizhou City Tower. This distance is of course very dangerous. For monks in fairyland, the distance of 100 feet is no different from that on hand. More than that, as soon as Li Yan waved his sleeves, a small case appeared in front of him, with a jug and two bottles on it.

"He Cun Li Cunxiao, the first general in the world, the lone king admired Jiuyu. It is a great pleasure in life to be able to meet and fight with the generals today. Will the generals appreciate their faces and make a big difference with the lone king?" Li Yan stood hand in hand and politely asked.

In front of the tower, several generals were surrounded by a young general with an extraordinary manner and bravery. It was Li Cunxiao. Beside him, there are two Luohan who protect him personally, crossing the river-Luohan and the smiling lion Luohan.

Crossing the river-Luo Han saw that Li Yan was so arrogant and arrogant, and felt that he was ignored by the other side, and he could not help humming and expressing his dissatisfaction: "This is a big courage! We have killed so many of our fellow students before, but we are still present in a stately manner, isn't he? Aren't you afraid of our revenge? "

The smiling lion Luo Han's eyes are murderous: "This is so arrogant, there is no one in his eyes, and he will die in our hands sooner or later!"

The two of you said one word to me and scolded Li Ye from beginning to end several times, but they kept their voices low so as not to be heard by Li Ye.

Li Cunxiao had a calm heart and didn't comment casually, but a general with a masculine and handsome face next to him uttered a small smirk.

This subtle movement was noticed by Jiang Luohan, and he turned his head and glared at the man, "What are you laughing at?"

In the face of the experts from the wonderland, the general didn't mean to be afraid. Instead, he obliquely said: "It is obvious that Li Zhi's nagging is not afraid of revenge, because you can't move him at all."

The general was called Li Jiben and was one of Hedong Shishitaibao.

Li Yanben is telling the truth, but it is because of the fact that he particularly hurts self-esteem. Crossing the river-Luo Han was so angry and furious that he almost couldn't help but shot Li Yeben here with a slap.

Facing the growing anger of Jiang-Luohan and his stance preparing to make a move, Li Yiben sneered and looked at each other squintingly, making it clear that he was fearless.

Li Zhiben himself has the cultivation of soldiers and warlords. He is a leader of the Hedong Army. As a thirteen prince, he holds military power. He is also a proud and proud person on a weekday. Looking down?

The two sides fought with each other, as if they were fighting internally. At this moment, Li Cunxiao made a noise.

It wasn't just talking to Luo Han and the general, but to answer Li's invitation. He folded his fists and politely, and said loudly, "Thank you, King Ann for the invitation.

Li Cunxiao called Li Xuan the king of An and claimed himself to be the general. In nominal terms, both sides are Tang Chen, Li Yan is distinguished, Li Cunxiao should be respected.

However, at present there is a confrontation between the two armies, and the two sides are hostile. Li Cunxiao can be so polite. In addition to his good culture, it is not only as simple as respecting Li Zhi's identity.

Not only respect for identity, of course, respect for Li Zhi.

However, Li Cunxiao's meaning is also very clear, he will not meet outside the city, lest there be extra branches.

Li Cunxiao simply refused, Li Yi didn't take any notice, and his smile became more and more mellow: "The general is the hero of the world, and the Thirteen Taibao is also the choice of the moment. Although the solitary king and Er have no affiliation, they have long been associated. Heart. Now that the situation is compelling, it ’s really not the wish of the solitary king to meet each other. Li Ke did n’t listen to the orders and let the court sweep the ground majesticly and make the enemy of the world distressing. The solitary king crusade Hedong and fight with the generals. It's really helpless! "

Then, Li Min took the jug, poured two wines, raised one with his hands, and greeted Li Cunxiao, and the other was taken to Li Cunxiao by air.

Li Zheng's voice became deep, and his voice was filled with helplessness: "The lone king always respects the general and is very happy to learn that the general has become a military general. I only wish I could not meet, know, and intersect with the general at an early date. An old friend usually congratulates the general and can only admire the general with this wine and talk about his meaning! "

Having said that, Li Ye did not wait for Li Cunxiao to respond, so he raised his head and respected him.

When Li Cunxiao heard Li Yan's words, he was very surprised and rejoicing. When he saw Li Yan doing his respect first, his eyes flashed a touch of emotion.

Who is Li Yan?

To calm down the Huangchao chaos, to help the building fall, to turn the tide into the downturn, it is the Tang Dynasty Society's humerus, and it is also the hope of Datang ZTE. Who would not admire?

Two generations of An Wang Wenzhi martial arts, throwing heads and blood on Jiangshan, almost supported the Tang Dynasty society with his own strength, and people with lofty ideals in the world, who would not praise?

With his age, the battles, achievements, and prestige enjoyed by the world have made him a legend. He himself is the idol of the people of the world, and his dedication is the goal of everyone's struggle.

As for Li Keyong and Zhu Wenzhi, compared with that, they are more than one level behind.

Li Xun said that he had always respected Li Cunxiao, which was half true and false, but Li Cunxiao respected Li Xun, but he did not add any moisture.

Li Cunxiao fought against Li Xun on the battlefield, which was according to one side and was forced by the general trend. There was no private grievance, let alone deep hatred. So to this day, Li Cunxiao still admires Li Wei.

Li Cunxiao is also a man of temperament. He is frank and straightforward. As a general in the army, he doesn't have so many twists and turns, and is so praised by idols now, Li Cunxiao is inevitably excited.

"Wang An's absurd praise, dare not be ashamed, Xie An'an!" Li Cunxiao raised his glass and drank it.

Li Yan's eyes were more applauded and he closed the wine bottle. He suddenly sighed and said, "The general, as Tang Chen, should have the opportunity to do this, and he should be the minister of the community. If there is chaos in the civil strife today, there will be no evil It takes only three or five years for the general's talent, and Feng Hou is okay, and the name of Wang Yi is just around the corner! "

"Now the general follows Li Keyong, it is the pearl of dust. If the general is willing to think about righteousness, cast aside the dark and cast light, and loyal to the court, the lone king promises no blame, and will keep the general as a jewel!"

After lingering for so long, the most important thing Li Yan had to say finally came out. These words have the pavement before them, which undoubtedly seems more credible and full of weight. But before he finished speaking, Li Cunxiao's face changed greatly.

"An Wang Xiu wants to say more!" Li Cunxiao shouted, his face sank, and his attitude was extremely decisive. "If An Wang wants to say these things, there will be only one answer at the end: Please An Wang attack the city immediately!"

Although he respected Li Yan, it was only selfishness. As soon as he mentioned the overall situation of war and the right and wrong, the thinking of the general began to dominate everything. He did not let Li Yan continue to say more, so as not to make people suspicion and disturb the military.

At this moment, Li Cunxiao is like a horizontal knife with a sheath, ready to fight at any time. Looking at his posture, if Li Zhi continues to persuade, he will definitely make a fight.

Based on the cultivation of his military general, his personal combat power has also reached the level of real life.

Li Cunxiao was so vigilant and decisive. Not only did he not annoy Li Li, but made him appreciate it even more, saying in his heart: "How good is such a good general. What a pity, how could you use Li Ke so hard-heartedly?"

However, the meaning Li Li wants to express has been completed, and the purpose of this trip has been achieved, but there is no need to continue entanglement.

Li Xun took a fist to say goodbye: "In this case, the lone king no longer talks. But the lone king can clearly declare the general. As long as the lone king is still King Tang An, the general will cast the general as a ambassador at any time! "

Having said that, Li Yan turned and left.

Li Cunxiao looked at Li Ye with a solitary look, without saying a word for a long time, the atmosphere was very dignified. At half a moment, he turned to look at Li Yanben, but saw the other person's eyes look at him, a little weird, mixed with a hint of unclear way.

Li Cunxiao frowned: "Liu has something to say?"

Li Yanben grinned. He is a person who has no fear and always has something to say. Otherwise, he would not have mocked Jiang-Rohan directly. "I didn't expect King An to value his brother so much. Even the condition of worshipping a different surname Wang, to win over my brother to take refuge, this is really jealous! "

Li Cunxiao's eyebrows constrained his eyes: "That's just An Wang jokes, how can I take it seriously?"

Li Yan's own point of view is clear: "An Wang came alone and prepared the wine deliberately to tell a joke?"

There was anger in Li Cunxiao's eyes: "Even if what An Wang said is true, what is it? Does Liu Liu think that I, Li Cunxiao, is a traitor who will betray the Lord?"

Li Yanben smiled: "I'm just joking, why should my brother be angry?"

Li Cunxiao snorted coldly.

Back in the camp, Li Zhi was not idle, but handwritten letters.

The letter was of course written to Li Cunxiao, the content of which was to advise surrender, the key point was to understand the righteousness, and promise generous conditions, while highlighting his personal respect for Li Cunxiao.

Based on Tsing Yi Yamen's investigation of Li Cunxiao and his understanding of Li Cunxiao, of course, he knew that no matter how many letters he wrote, Li Cunxiao would not take refuge.

He did not expect Li Cunxiao to take refuge.

After writing the letter advising to surrender Li Cunxiao, Li Xun began to write a letter advising to descend to Yizhou defenders. After the two letters were written, Li Xu called the holy infant King Honghong and passed the letter to Li Cunxiao: "You arrange for the manpower to find a hidden time and place. Be sure to send this letter to Li Cunxiao."

"It's so difficult, big deal. I shot it myself." The red baby took the letter, patted her **** and packed the tickets, and then thought a little bit of doubt.

Li Yan's smile was confident: "Of course it works."

After the red baby left, Li Xuan called Li Zhen and gave him the second letter, "Immediately arrange for handwriting to be written, 10,000 copies per day, and shoot into the city with bows and arrows."

Li Zhen took the letter without asking anything. With his wisdom, of course, he understood Li Zhi's purpose for doing so.

In the following days, the officers and men would send people to the city at regular intervals every day, and they would persuade the surrender letters into the city in batches. Because there were enough letters to surrender, even if Li Cunxiao ordered all of them to be turned in, the generals in Yizhou kept a lot in private, and the content was quickly spread.

In fact, there is nothing special about the content, except that the official army will win and the Hedong army will lose. Li Ye listed the top ten reasons why the army must win, which he called "ten wins", and also listed the reasons why Hedong army would lose, which he called "ten wins."

On this basis, the letter, in the tone of Li Zhi, Chunchun taught these astray soldiers. And as King An's identity and prestige, they called on them to abandon secretly investing in the light, and to ensure that they did not look into the past, and those who came to it early would be rewarded with money.

Soon, Li Zhi's letter of surrender caused a storm in Yizhou City, and people's hearts were obviously affected.

On this day Li Cunxiao returned to the mansion. After eating, he just returned to the study and sat down. He had n’t opened the art of war to start reading. The tabletop of the book began to ripple like a wave of water. That was exactly the letter Li Zhi sent to him.

Li Cunxiao opened the signature and found that it was Li Yan, who didn't even read the contents, immediately got up and prepared to ask someone to give the letter to Li Keyang to show loyalty and frankness.

But at this moment, a curly-haired monk dressed in magpies and jewels suddenly appeared in front of him. As soon as his fingers were moved, the letter arrived in his hands.

The monk looked at Li Cunxiao with skeptical eyes and asked, "As a general of Yizhou, the general had a private letter with the enemy coach in private. What is the intention?"
