The third day of the eleventh month in the winter of the seventh year of Zhenguan.

Longyou.

When the Tubo people learned that Lu Dongzan had been killed.

The last fig leaf between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo was completely lifted, and the two sides have entered a state of incompatibility.

The Tubo people tried to attack Shibao City this time.

Xue Rengui organized a counterattack.

Small-scale fighting broke out between the two sides in Longyou.

Xue Rengui has not yet mobilized the red cannon and musketeers.

These two heavy weapons he wanted to use in the decisive battle.

So the Tang Dynasty and the Tubo people fought with bare hands on the border with real swords and spears.

There were back and forths between the two sides, but the Tubo people were always the ones who suffered.

They never expected that the young general of the Tang Dynasty was so cunning in his military tactics.

In every small-scale battle, Xue Rengui always had rear army supplies.

He did not hunt the Tibetans who were about to die, but waited for another small group of Tibetans to come to rescue them.

As long as another team comes over, Xue Rengui will eat the Tubo people of the other team.

The round-the-point support was performed vividly by Xue Rengui.

What troubled Tubo the most was that those sacrificed by the Tang Dynasty were all insignificant soldiers.

But those who died on the Tubo side were actual centurions, thousands captains, and fire chiefs.

The most damning thing is that these Tubo generals died without knowing how.

Recently, Xue Rengui went crazy with the company in Longyou.

The accuracy of the musket has been trained to perfection by him.

Not only that, he also trained about ten 'snipers'.

These ten men fired extremely accurately with their muskets. They often hid in haystacks, mountains, and mud where others could not see them, and then shot off the Tibetan general's head with one shot.

The Tibetan people's patience has almost reached its limit.

There are always such small frictions, and I always suffer the disadvantages. How can I continue to endure this.

Songtsan Gampo has already begun to regulate his troops in the Tubo Royal City, preparing to come with His Majesty Li Er for a decisive battle between the two kings.

……

Chang'an.

The battle situation on Longyou's side was sent to Taiji Palace one by one.

While Li Shimin was excited, he also began to get generals such as Yuchi Jingde, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji, Xue Wanche, Zhang Gongjin, Duan Zan and others ready to go.

With the blessing of"Kuo Di Zhi", the mountains and rivers of Longyou were already known to the generals of the Tang Dynasty.

Over at the Firearms Supervision Department, Duhe has produced 30,000 muskets.

Li Shimin alone transferred 30,000 forbidden troops from Beiya to train muskets.

In addition to this, another five hundred red cannons were produced.

It can be said that Li Shimin has made all armed preparations.

The seventh year of Zhenguan, the winter solstice.

On this day, it rained in Chang'an.

The city of Chang'an was shrouded in a hazy drizzle, with traces of melancholy and lingering mist.

On November 19th of the seventh year of Zhenguan, General Li Anyan, the commander of the Zuotun Guard, summoned four of his captains to gather in his home to discuss matters. Then the four captains returned to their camps.

On November 20, the seventh year of Zhenguan, two generals from Zuo Wei and six captains came to visit Duke Junji of Chen State.

On November 21, Prince Zuo led two soldiers from the Huo Mansion to fight in private. Two people were killed and four were seriously injured. After the incident, the Minister of War was furious. Li Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of War, urgently reported to the Taiji Palace. With Li Shimin's approval, Li Ji issued a transfer order. , Liu Sichun, the general of the middle line of the guard led by the crown prince Zuo, was temporarily replaced by Chang Yingwang, the general of the right lieutenant, to control the guards and horses of the crown prince Zuo.

On November 22nd, Prince Li Chengqian traveled and stayed overnight at Qingyun Temple outside the city. That night, Li Anyan, the lieutenant general of Zuotunwei, led three important generals of Zuotunwei and secretly entered the temple in disguise to meet the prince. Two hours later, everyone will leave quietly

……

Unknowingly, the pace of Li Chengqian's rebellion suddenly accelerated.

He couldn't wait any longer, let alone the torment and fear day and night. Now that something had begun, it couldn't be abandoned halfway. Too many lives were involved, and the longer the matter was discussed and delayed, the easier it was for things to go wrong, so Once the decision is made, it must be launched!

No one noticed that under the calm surface of Chang'an City, there was a depressing atmosphere like a dark cloud over the city. It seemed that there was no wind and no waves, but in fact, there was a turbulent undercurrent that was about to explode.

Everything that happened in November of the seventh year of Zhenguan.

They were all reported to Li Yi one by one by Liu Tie, the city department yamen.

In Chang'an, almost all the beggars, gangsters, porters and even the laundry aunts in the Municipal Department and the whole city of Chang'an were Li Yi's spies.

Outside the city of Chang'an, the national intelligence network established by Ning Ziqi and the scholars from all over the world controlled by the family were also the spies of Li Yi, the leader of the family.

It can be said that Li Yi is aware of every disturbance in the world.

This day.

When he looked at the information sent by Liu Tie in Xiuwenfang, an ominous premonition suddenly filled his heart.

There are various signs that Li Chengqian and Hou Junji are about to start a rebellion in the near future.

Li Yi burned the letters, then wrapped himself in a cotton-padded jacket and prepared to go out.

When Shangguan Yi saw Li Yi, he asked casually:"Where are you going, my mentor?"

Li Yi blurted out:"Chen Guogong's Mansion."

Hou Junji?

"Teacher, why are you going there?……"

Li Yi has left.

Hou Junjifu.

Seeing Li Yi arriving, Hou Junji smiled calmly.

"Li Yi, things have changed in the world. Back then, you were just a humble young man on the outskirts of a ten thousand year old city. No one expected that you would now transform into a being that has thousands of people under your feet."

"What a surprise!"

"No wonder I have always wanted to kill you, but I have been unable to do so."

Li Yi couldn't quite understand these incomprehensible words.

His mind was now filled with the rebellion of Hou Junji and Li Chengqian, so he had no time to carefully appreciate the meaning in Hou Junji's words.

Li Yi smiled:" Master Hou is always so enigmatic and knowledgeable when speaking. In this case, I also have a blind spot in knowledge, and I hope Master Hou can answer it for me.

Hou Junji smiled and said,"Oh?" Is there any knowledge you don’t understand? What knowledge, tell me and listen."

Li Yi said with a smile:"When I was reading the biography of Wei Ding last night, I saw a short story about Wei Ding and started to read it.In the twelfth year, when Wei Ding was appointed as the governor of Guangzhou, there was a strong man under his rule. He was well-dressed, good at charity, and quite popular among the people. However, he was doing bad things secretly and often committed crimes. So Wei Ding found him. This powerful man said something to him. This sentence is too profound and I don’t understand it, so I would like to ask Mr. Hou for help.……"

Hou Junji looked at him calmly and said,"What did he say?"

The smile on Li Yi's face gradually faded away at some point. He looked directly into his eyes without fear and spoke slowly word by word. :"Wei Ding said, 'How can you be a thief when you are a beautiful woman?' I have little knowledge and I really don't know what to say. Please enlighten me." There was thunder on the ground and sudden changes in the wind and clouds!

Hou Junji's expression changed imperceptibly, and this change was caught by Li Yi. as expected!

He is going to rebel!
