Chapter 2390 Fatal Letter

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After this group of scouts completed the occupation of Miangu County, they immediately sent a message to Chen Ju.

    Chen Ju was also shocked when he received the news.  That was the important land of Miangu, and it was so completely occupied by the Ming army.

    If Chen Juyi hadn¡¯t repeatedly confirmed the truth of the matter, he wouldn¡¯t have even dared to believe it.

    Afterwards, Chen Ju led his troops to Miangu City while delivering a message to Yang'an Pass.

    By this time, Chen Ju was still worried that this was a trap.  He also ordered scouts to be deployed widely to conduct reconnaissance in all directions, making sure to find traces of the Tang army in case there was an ambush.

    In fact, this time it was really Chen Ju who was thinking too much. How could Li Shentong have any ambush? The reason why there was no Tang army in Lizhou was because Li Shentong had already scared away the Ming army.

    In fact, Chai Shao¡¯s letter for help not only failed to get him help, but actually frightened Li Shentong.

    Li Shentong was stationed in Lizhou as the rear of the northern Sichuan defense line, transporting supplies to the northern states and replenishing troops. There was not much pressure to defend against the enemy.

    Although the Ming Dynasty conquered the Tang Dynasty, Li Shentong originally thought that with Chai Shao guarding Yang'an Pass as a barrier to Lizhou, everything would be fine if he stayed in Lizhou City, let alone preparing a second line of defense in advance.

    "Otherwise, he wouldn't have forced Chai Shao to move to Fangyang'an Pass.

    And Li Shentong himself was still thinking about whether to send troops south to participate in the battle between Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.  After Li Yuan's death, Li Jiancheng immediately named him King of Huai'an and took charge of the military in the north, which really gave Li Shentong a taste of the sweetness.

    Li Shentong even felt that as the head of the Li family and holding great power, he also had an important say in the fate of the Tang Dynasty king.

    However, Li Shentong did not go south, and a letter asking for help from Chai Shao arrived in the north.

    Li Shentong was dismissive of Chai Shao's letter asking for help at the beginning. He always felt that Chai Shao was deliberately showing weakness just to allow him to mobilize troops to Yang'an Pass.

    But after Chai Shao repeatedly asked for help, Li Shentong couldn't sit still.

    Chai Shao's letter asking for help reminded him of the defeat in Weibei and the strength of the Ming army. He was already afraid of the Ming army in his bones.

    Li Shentong hesitated whether to rescue Chai Shao, but in the end he was worried that his lips would die and his teeth would be cold, so he ordered all his troops to go north and rush to Yang'an Pass.

    But before he could attack, the defeated troops in Yanganguan fled to Lizhou.

    When Li Shentong heard that Chai Shao had been defeated, he immediately became dizzy, as if his parents were dead.  It was not that he was sad for Chai Shao, but that once Chai Shao was defeated, Lizhou would have no barrier. How could he possibly stop the Ming army on his own.

    Li Shentong no longer rescued Yang'an Pass, and immediately decided to move the entire army south to Jiange.  Jiange is located at the junction of Jianzhou and Lizhou. Retreating to Jiange means giving up Lizhou.

    Li Shentong¡¯s order was issued, but no one objected.

    Li Shentong's army is a new army. It has only been in existence for a few months, and it has not experienced any major battles. It does not even have 20% of the combat strength of Chai Shao's army. How can it dare to fight the Ming army at this time?

    Li Shentong was about to evacuate all his troops and horses. In order to hurry up, a large amount of supplies in the city were abandoned and left to the Ming army.

    Li Shentong also called it euphemistically because it slowed down the marching speed of the Ming army.

    I am afraid Li Shentong is the first person in history to drag the enemy to death for trophies.

    After Chen Ju occupied Miangu County, he attacked from all sides and completely swept through Lizhou. It was only then that he was completely sure that Li Shentong had really escaped.

    Chen Ju is an old man in Fengzhou and knows Li Shentong well. At this time, he couldn't help but spit on Li Shentong. It was really an embarrassment to the Fengzhou Army.

    At this time, Huang Mingliao, who was in Yang'an Pass, also received a letter from Chen Ju.

    Regarding this news, Huang Mingliao felt that although it was unexpected, it was also reasonable.  Huang Mingliao and Li Shentong had gotten along directly and fought against each other, so he knew this person's ability and integrity very well.

    In Keli Prefecture, Huang Mingliao ordered the 29th Army to go south and garrison Yicheng County (Lee Prefecture).

    The main force of the Ming army suspended its attack in the direction of Jiange.

    On the one hand, Huang Mingliao originally attacked Xingzhou first, but the plan did not change quickly, so he took Yang'an Pass first and then occupied Lizhou by mistake.

    But now the Ming army is actually advancing alone, with three troops behind it: Ren Gui, Li Xiyu, and Chen Yanshou.  Unless these three units are defeated, the rear will always be unstable.

    On the other hand, Huang Mingliao did not want his appearance to affect the current battle between brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.  At this time Zhang Si

    And news came from Baidi City that Li Shimin had launched a campaign to conquer Li Jiancheng and led his troops to the west. The whole Sichuan was completely in chaos.

    At this time, the Ming army advanced too fast, and it was easy to calm down severalContradictions, let them unanimously deal with the outside world.

    Huang Mingliao then decided to reorganize his main force and then go south to station troops in Yicheng County and make arrangements in the middle.  &#24378&#29306&#32&#32&#35835&#29306

    At the same time, Huang Mingliao detached three partial divisions, and ordered Duan Lun to lead the 31st Army to go north to obey the government and encircle Ren Gui in Fengzhou with Zhang Wenyuan's troops; he ordered Jiao Fangwei to lead the Hanzhong Army to attack Li Yao in Bazhou eastward.  , entered Shu via Micang Road; ordered Li Keshi to lead the 45th Army up the Bailong River, and cooperated with Zhai Changsun and Changsun Anye in Longnan to attack Li Xiyu in Wuzhou.

    After arranging three separate divisions, the main force of the Ming army repaired on the spot, while Huang Mingliao sent someone to send a letter persuading Li Shentong to surrender.  In any case, the two are also old acquaintances in Fengzhou.

    In his letter to Li Shentong, Huang Mingliao wrote very sincerely.

    Reviewing the experiences of both parties in Fengzhou, although Li Shentong did not have any good memories in Fengzhou.  He also said that as long as Li Shentong is willing to surrender, the Fengzhou brothers are still willing to accept him.

    People from Fengzhou do not deceive people from Fengzhou.

    Everyone felt that Huang Mingliao's letter was of little use. After all, Li Shentong was from the Li Tang clan and was guarding the sword pavilion. How could he surrender.

    But Huang Mingliao smiled and said: "Li Youliang is also a clan relative of Li Tang, but at the critical moment, he took care of dedicating Chang'an to our army and stabbed Li Yuan. I really understand this Li Shentong, but he is not a person who can sacrifice his life for righteousness.  .¡±

    ??As expected, Huang Mingliao¡¯s

    Li Shentong was guarding the sword pavilion and was shocked three times a day.

    When Li Shentong got Huang Mingliao's letter, his heart became really complicated.  He didn't expect that a not-so-good memory from more than ten years ago might play a huge role now.

    Li Shentong had never thought about surrender before, but to this day, it is not something that cannot be mentioned.

    Li Yuan died, several sons attacked each other, and the entire Li family has completely fallen apart. At this point, it is really necessary to let the entire Li family perish for an impossible ideal.  Zhi Da Zhi Xiao

    Li Shentong doesn¡¯t know.

    I no longer dare to talk about ideals, now I only talk about reality.  Li Shentong also has children, wives and concubines, and he understands the fate these people will face if he is defeated.

    Li Shentong doesn¡¯t want his family to suffer, and more importantly, he hasn¡¯t lived enough and he doesn¡¯t want to die yet.

    Li Shentong put down the letter Huang Mingliao gave him, picked it up, put it down again, picked it up again, and finally Li Shentong sighed helplessly and sat there, feeling lost
