The word "side by side" king of the Tang Dynasty

The two cliffs and gorges rest on the roaring waves, where heroes have fought for each other since ancient times.

Cangtianhu set up this danger, and his battle bones were as high as the mountains!

Since ancient times, Hulao Pass has been a battleground for military strategists. It stands on a thousand-foot wall, connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north. It is not only a natural danger, but also the last gateway to the Central Plains!

However, such a majestic and dangerous pass was still unable to withstand the advance of Li Changqing's army.

After Li Ji's death, the remaining army at Hulao Pass no longer had the slightest intention to fight, and they surrendered to death.

As soon as Hulao Pass was broken, Li Changqing ordered Li Ji to be buried lavishly, and then ordered the army to reorganize for a few days, and after raising their spirits to fullness, he led the army across Hulao Pass and went straight into the Central Plains!

After Hulao Pass, there was no more dangerous pass that could be defended. Li Shimin devoted a lot of effort to this important strategic location. It was a desperate move, but it didn't seem to have much effect.

The news of King Wu's army entering the pass soon spread to the pass. The army marched south to Chang'an. The people in the pass were all happy after hearing the news.

"King Wu finally came to counterattack Chang'an!"

"The false emperor has fallen into disgrace, and King Wu should be in power!"

"We will sincerely welcome King Wu to the pass!"

"King Wu must kill the false emperor and avenge the old man's child who died!"

"The false emperor has fallen into disgrace, and King Wu should be in power!"

……

……

Such remarks filled all the cities in the pass.

Late at night, in Biancheng, at the general's mansion

"General, what should we do now? King Wu's army will arrive at our city tomorrow!"

An old man with a goatee and a Confucian shirt said to Ma Xuan, who was sitting on the main seat, with a look of anxiety on his face.

Ma Xuan had a sullen face, and when he heard the noisy words of the old man with a goatee, he became extremely angry. Di cursed loudly:"You fucking ask me, how do I know what to do? How can you persuade King Wu to go around our Bian City?"

The old man with the goatee was speechless when Ma Xuan sprayed spit on his face.

Convince King Wu's army to go around Bian City? Then he would soon become famous all over the world and become the leading Confucian.

After holding it in for a long time, He still said:"But tomorrow... the general, as the defender of a city, must come up with a way, what if we don't hold on to the city until His Majesty's reinforcements arrive? Ma

Xuan glanced at him strangely when he heard this and said:"I have discovered that you still have the potential to become a famous general. King Wu is the most powerful general in the world. Even the God of War Li Ji can't resist the Great Tiger Prison. You let me Will they hold on to the city until reinforcements arrive?"

When he said this, he gave the old man with the goatee a hard look and said clearly:"Early tomorrow morning, open the city gate and welcome King Wu's army into the city! Order the soldiers not to resist!"

Who dares to resist? This is King Wu! Let's not talk about whether they can fight or not. If they dare to lead the army to attack Li Changqing, it is estimated that the people in the city will rebel. The name of King Wu can be said to be more powerful than the emperor among the people. Even louder, because Li Shimin's extreme behavior caused his reputation and reputation among the people to be extremely poor, so the people had almost no feelings for Li Shimin. The old man with the goatee opened his mouth, but in the end he did not refute Ma Xuan's decision. This was The only way out now is unless they are willing to die for Li Shimin

……

The next day, when Li Changqing's army arrived at Biancheng, they unexpectedly found that there was no resistance from the defenders. The gates of Biancheng were wide open and the people lined the streets to welcome them.

When Li Jing saw this, he couldn't help but smile to Li Changqing and said:"King Wu is the master who obeys the destiny. He conquered the false emperor and won the hearts of the people, so the people will support him like this!"

Li Changqing also laughed dumbly.

Those who have gained the truth will have many helpers, while those who have lost the truth will have few masters. Now it has finally been demonstrated in the most true way.

However, precisely because of the warm welcome of the people, the march of Li Changqing's army was inevitably slowed down. This was something that could not be helped. We could not ignore the enthusiasm of the people.

On the other hand, Wang Gui and others led dozens of remnant defeated generals and rushed back to Chang'an overnight, informing Li Shimin in advance of the breach of Hulao Pass.

"Hulao Pass was broken by Li Changqing?!"

When Wang Gui reported to Li Shimin, the latter was having breakfast. Hearing this, he was so shocked that he knocked over the porridge bowl in his hand and spilled the porridge on the floor.

"Your Majesty, all the 300,000 troops at Hulao Pass were destroyed. In order to create opportunities for us and others to escape, General Li Ji would rather die than retreat and resisted King Wu's army to the end. Now I am afraid that... the general is worthy of the name of the God of War!"

Wang Gui said with a sad look on his face. Li Shimin was in a daze, his face pale:"Even Li Ji is dead, Hulao Pass has been broken... I, what else can I do? Li Changqing is coming to kill me soon. I am about to die.……"

Li Shimin is now panicking. He has pinned all his hopes on the Yellow River's natural barrier and Hulao Pass. Now that these two barriers have been broken, he can only wait and die!

"No, I can't die! I can't die! Li

Shimin murmured to himself, looked at Wang Gui, grabbed his arm, and asked eagerly:"Shu Jie, Shu Jie!" If you tell me what to do now, if you can survive this disaster, I will make you prime minister!"

"This... Your Majesty, I can't think of any good way. How about surrendering to King Wu?……"

Wang Gui said hesitantly.

Anger suddenly welled up in Li Shimin's eyes, and he kicked Wang Gui to the ground, roaring:"Even if it means death! I will not surrender to that bitch!

You should actually speak for that traitor, I want to kill him Kill you!"

He said and turned around, looking for the sword.

Wang Gui was so frightened that he felt like he was dying. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind and he said urgently:"Your Majesty, your Majesty, calm down! I have thought of a good way!"

"Is this true?"

The murderous intention in Li Shimin's eyes disappeared slightly, and he looked at Wang Gui with a gloomy expression.

After walking in front of the gate of hell, Wang Gui didn't want to die here, so he said bravely:"Your Majesty, in my opinion, now the only one is The only solution is to seek help from the Western Turks, Tuyuhun, Tubo and other countries, promise them benefits, and unite them to resist King Wu! Hearing this

, Li Shimin's expression changed slightly and he said,"Unite the barbarians to resist Li Changqing?""

There was disgust in his tone, but there was also... emotion._
