Huiming didn't seem to notice Li Keyong's displeasure, and said calmly, "Because Wang Duo has mastered the military power and has left Shu."
"Wang Duo?" Li Keyong was slightly taken aback, "That's just a civil servant, no different from Zheng Tian. He has the military power, so he can change the situation?"
"Yes." This time Huiming's answer was extremely concise.
Li Ke asked in a deep voice, "Why?"
Huiming said: "Because Wang Duo is a loyal minister."
Li Keyong said: "A loyal minister can win a war?"
Huiming said: "A loyal minister cannot win a war, but it can give a talented person who is eager to serve the country a chance to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield."
Li Ke frowned, and quickly understood Huiming's meaning: "Wang Duo can make this general make contributions?"
Huiming asked, "What's the reason why the general stayed in Hedong and couldn't go south?"
Li Keyong said: "Master, why bother to ask the question clearly? Of course, there is insufficient food and fodder." He quickly realized: "Wang Duo can solve the problem of our army's food and fodder?"

Huiming nodded and said: "Hedong Jiedu envoy Zheng Congxuan didn't give the general food and fodder, which delayed the overall situation of the dynasty to hunt down thieves. If Wang Duo can persuade Zheng Congxuan to put aside the past with the general and provide food and fodder to the army, then the general can lead the army to go south."
Li Ke thought for a moment: "Can Wang Duo convince Zheng Congyun?"
Huiming showed a slight smile. He was born with a rosy and moist face, and his skin was as white as snow. He was a monk with a fair face, but his lips were extremely red. This smile was so charming that it was so charming: "Zheng Congxuan won't give General Liang Mo is afraid that the general will cause chaos after he enters the Central Plains, so he does not hesitate to bear the reputation of delaying the war opportunity, which shows that he is also a loyal and upright minister. Since they are all loyal and upright ministers, for the sake of the overall situation of the country, Wang Duo can of course persuade Zheng Congxuan."
Li Ke looked at Huiming carefully, and sometimes he was also very surprised, a monk, why is his head so flexible, he doesn't look like a born person at all, but also, there is no real born master in this world.
He thought for a while and asked, "Why did Wang Duo have to recruit his generals to go south? Now that Li Ye has swept across the Central Plains, there are almost no thieves in the east of Tongguan, and the situation is very good."
Huiming said: "Because the general wrote to Wang Duo expressing his ambition to serve the country, and Wang Duo would certainly not refuse in order to put down the rebels."
Li Ke said in Nahan, "When did I write such a letter?"
Huiming smiled again: "Now."
On that day, Li Keyong wrote to Wang Duo, requesting to join forces with Li Ye to fight against Huangchao.
When Wang Duo received the letter from Li Keyong, he had just taken office not long ago. This was great news for him, because once Li Keyong led his troops to the south, it would definitely strengthen Li Ye's power and help Wang Shiping down the bandits. The battle opened up a new situation.
Wang Duo immediately wrote a letter to Li Yan, canonizing Li Keyong as the Yanmen Jiedu envoy, and readily wrote to Zheng Congyun, asking him to supply Li Keyong with grain and fodder. After Zheng Congxuan received Wang Duo's letter, he hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed, accepting Wang Duo's military order.
There are rumors that after Zheng Congxuan took over the military order, he once told his cronies: "Today, in order to destroy the thieves in the house, I will not hesitate to lure wolves into the house. The future will be unpredictable!"
Li Keyong summoned 200,000 soldiers and horses in Daizhou, and when he led his troops to the south, Li Ye had already arrived at Tongguan.
After defeating Zhu Wen, the Pinglu Army, the Zhongwu Army, and the Caizhou Army, led by Li Ye, fought for many days and won consecutive victories. They have wiped out all the Huangchao troops east of Tongguan. Can enter Guanzhong, approach Chang'an, and fight the main force of Huang Chao.
It was a sunny day in autumn. Li Ye, Yang Fuguang, Zhou Ji and others led the generals to ride out of the camp to look at Tongguan nearby.
Li Ye pointed to Tongguan and said to the crowd: "There is a poem from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce: The father-in-law regards the important place, narrow and narrow to accommodate a bicycle, and struggles hard with a long halberd. He will use one man forever. The so-called one man is the gate, and ten thousand husbands cannot open it. This is what he said. Wait for Xiongguan."
Yang Fuguang covered his forehead with his hands, and said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief is good at fighting, and he can be so knowledgeable and memorized. Our family really admires him."
Flattery is probably a common problem of eunuchs. After finishing this sentence, Yang Fuguang continued: "There are Wei and Luoerchuan in the north, Zhongnan Mountain in the south, Huayue in the west, Forbidden Valley in the east, a place of mountains and peaks, deep valleys and cliffs. The land of nowhere. There are twelve consecutive cities to the south, but the road in the middle can only accommodate one car and one horse. Tongguan is so dangerous that it is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. What the commander said is true. It's just right."
Zhou Ji was guarding the Xiongguan which was heavily guarded and lined with armored soldiers, his face was very solemn, he sighed: "The yellow bandits were able to conquer Tongguan that day because the soldiers guarding the pass were unstable, food and grass were not enough, arrowheads were scarce, and reinforcements did not arrive for a long time. , This gave them an opportunity to take advantage of. Now that Xiongguan is stable and the bandit army is heavily defending, it will not be an easy task for us to capture the pass."
Li Ye was noncommittal. When he looked up, his brows moved slightly, and two extremely powerful auras faintly emanated from the city. Although the other party didn't put pressure on it deliberately, Li Ye still clearly sensed that it was the strength of a master in the real world.
On this Tongguan, there are actually two real masters hidden!
What Li Ye didn't know was that the head of the Taoist sect of Zhongnan Mountain had personally stepped forward, and the great elder and many disciples of the Taoist sect were sitting here. After Wu Yazi and Wujizi died in the hands of Li Ye one after another, they were already extremely afraid of Li Ye. Tongguan is the gateway to Guanzhong. Chong Guan.
Li Ye frowned slightly. In addition to the two real masters, he also sensed several high-level qi practitioners.
With these masters around, Tongguan can be said to be impenetrable. With his current strength, he must always be on guard against two real people, and join forces to attack him outside the pass, not to mention taking the lead in charging and tearing him apart like in Dengzhou. The opponent's line of defense is gone.
Not only Li Ye couldn't, even the masters under his command couldn't be dispatched easily, otherwise they would be delivering food to two real people.
"It's absolutely impossible, send all the masters to Tongguan, Guanzhong don't want it?" Li Ye smiled wryly and shook his head, the Taoist sect of Zhongnan Mountain took good care of him.
However, Li Ye was not in a hurry. Anyway, Li Keyong was coming soon, so he didn't believe it. As the king of Jin who would dominate the three Jin Dynasties in the future, there would be no real person behind him. That monk Huiming was obviously good, although he was not The realm of real people, but I heard that there are many masters who are not born in the world in Juexiao Temple.
Defeating Huang Chao, this great achievement, Li Ye didn't intend to swallow it alone, and he couldn't swallow it. There are hundreds of thousands of Huang Chao in Guanzhong, countless good generals, and elites everywhere. If there are a few more military generals among them, even if Li Ye finds Chu Nanhuai , and even calling Zhang Jiuling here did not help. After all, there were too many enemy troops, which exceeded the upper limit for monks to decide the outcome.
In a battle, the strong can decide the outcome, and in a war, only the army can decide the outcome.
Right now, the only ally that Li Ye can rely on is actually Li Keyong. As for the other feudal armies around Guanzhong—if they are really useful, they won't be beaten by Zhu Wen so much that they can't find Bei.
Li Ye calmed down and waited for Li Keyong to appear.
At this time, Zhu Wen had already captured Tongzhou.
When Li Ye wiped out Huangchao's rebellious army east of Tongguan, Daqi's army was not idle in Guanzhong. Huang Chao's plan was very simple. Since the Central Plains territory is too big to control, let's just ignore it and just hold Tongguan. Wait for him Eliminate the enemy forces on all sides of Guanzhong, free up your hands, and then have a showdown with Li Ye, and then pacify the world.
When Zhu Wen returned to Chang'an from Dengzhou, he first defeated the soldiers and horses in the towns of Fengxiang, Binning, and Xiasui. Later, Huang Chao saw that the situation in Guanzhong had basically stabilized, so he had plans to expand the territory, so he appointed Zhu Wen as the governor of Tongzhou. Defensive.
Tongzhou is not under the control of Daqi's army, so Zhu Wen will lead the army to defeat it.
Most of Huang Chao's appointments to generals were like this. Many appointments were made to governors, defense envoys, and Jiedu envoys, but they were all fake. If he really wanted to take office, he had to take the territory from the Tang army first.
After Zhu Wen captured Tongzhou, he had his own territory, and he was in a very good mood. At the beginning, he led the troops out of Tongguan to attack Dengzhou. After defeating Dengzhou, he had his own foothold. However, Li Ye messed things up, which made Zhu Wen really annoyed.
The capture of Tongzhou this time can be regarded as a successful achievement of the goal of occupying a place. With its own territory, it will be able to prepare troops in the future, watch the situation and move, and have a basis for advancing and retreating.
Even if the generals and soldiers under his command are assigned to the fields, even if they take root, their loyalty and attachment to Zhu Wen will become more stable. Even if Huang Chao is destroyed, if Zhu Wen handles it properly, he may not die with Huang Chao.
As the leader of the army, Zhu Wen has no shortage of women. Even if he doesn't rob himself, the generals under his command will rob them, and they will choose the good ones first and offer them to him.
Wherever the army went, not a single blade of grass would grow, but there was a reason why military disasters were called military disasters, not to mention that the people were looted, and those young women and women would not escape bad luck.
The day after conquering Tongzhou, Zhu Wen was resting in the hall, when suddenly there was a commotion outside, and a large group of soldiers poured in, sometimes with loud laughter and low cries, pouring the school gate in from time to time. It is the stunning beauties who brought several robbers, and they want to dedicate them to Zhu Wen.
Zhu Wen has always been obsessed with the daughter of the governor of Songzhou who happened to see him on the street when he was not in the army. Although he has dealt with many women over the years, they have all been used and discarded.
The army had just won a big victory and was in a good mood. Zhu Wen took a look at the women.
Suddenly, his eyes froze, and he stared at one of the women intently. The other party's hair was disheveled, his clothes were rough, and he was in a state of embarrassment. He fell to the ground, bowed his head and sobbed, and his thin shoulders trembled slightly. He was so pitiful. .
Zhu Wen quickly stood up and came to the woman, his hands trembling with excitement, and his facial features twitched for a while. He lifted the girl up and took a closer look, sure enough, isn't this the governor's daughter he saw on the street back then? To be regarded by him as the same stunning beauty as Yin Lihua
