People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Li Ye is now controlling Tongguan, and possibly Huazhou, that is, controlling the road to Gyeonggi. The Yanmen army was going to the capital to fight against Huang Chao. If Li Ye refused to let go of the road and intentionally blocked them, Li Keyong would suffer.

After saying this, Li Keyong felt very awkward. He suddenly thought, didn't he discuss with Huiming before coming here, and wanted to plot against Li Ye? Looking at it now, no matter what, it feels like Li Ye has calculated something.

This is of course not a feeling, but a fact. Li Keyong is very clear. Li Ye previously hid the elite and did not take it out. He pretended to be struggling to attack the city and let him relax. To go out, take down Tongguan, let him not even drink the soup, if it is not Li Ye who is plotting against him, he himself does not believe it.

Li Ke was very sad that Li Ye was tricked instead of being tricked.

If you are tricked, you have to be kind and respectful to others. This is like being sold and paying back the money, and knowing that you are being sold, you still have to count the money with a smile... When did Li Ke use it? Had this kind of loss

Li Ye smiled and said: "Shuai Li, you don't need to be polite, you and I are both ministers of the country, and it is our duty to destroy thieves for the country."

Seeing Li Ye being so serious, Li Keyong opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Soon, the news that Shangguan Qingcheng captured Huazhou was spread back.

At that time, the Pinglu army had basically entered the customs and headed towards Huazhou, while the Yanmen army was still outside Tongguan. Hundreds of thousands of troops were on their way, and it was inevitable that the team would stretch for dozens of miles.

After all the army arrived in Huazhou and set up camp outside the city, Li Ye, Wang Duo, Zhou Ji, Yang Fuguang, Li Keyong and others gathered together again to discuss plans and discuss the next battle arrangements.

The Pinglu army quickly broke through Tongguan, which was beyond everyone's expectations. Before Wang Duo had time to deploy anything, Shangguan Qingcheng controlled the main roads of Huazhou, which made him very helpless.

Moreover, Shangguan Qingcheng wiped out all the weapons and armor that Huang Chao had hoarded in Huazhou. Needless to say, after this battle, the fighting power of the Pinglu army will rise to another level.

Wang Duo had already been controlled by Huiming with the secret method of Shimen, and his mind was no longer with Li Ye, so he said to Li Ye: "The Pinglu army has fought hard for more than ten days and captured Tongguan and Huazhou. The soldiers must be very tired and should take a rest. Kill the thief It's a big deal, and the Pinglu army can't be tired all the time. This is too unfair to King An. The Yanmen army has been recharging their energy for a long time, and now is the time to focus on fighting. I think that the next step is to let the Yanmen army go forward. Army, clear the way for the army so that the army can conquer Chang'an."

This is to ask the Pinglu Army to get out of the way and stay behind to give the Yanmen Army a chance to make meritorious service.

Tongguan was difficult to break through, and it was breached by the Pinglu army, and then all the way to Chang'an, there was no dangerous place, and it was an opportunity to reap great benefits and make great military achievements.

All the generals of the Pinglu Army were unhappy when they heard Wang Duo's words. Liu Dazheng, Zhao Polu and other generals expressed very passionately that the Pinglu Army did not need to rest, and the Pinglu Army could still fight again. The Pinglu army wants to conquer the capital for the dynasty!

Wang Duo naturally disagreed, but his reasons were so high-sounding that Liu Dazheng and Zhao Polu couldn't pick any thorns, but they still firmly insisted that the Pinglu army would never stop.

At this time, Li Ke made a generous statement, saying that the Yanmen army is dedicated to serving the country, and they can't just watch the bloody battle of their fellow soldiers while retreating behind, making the world laugh at them. The two groups argued endlessly, and the atmosphere in the tent was quite heated for a while, but later, the smell of gunpowder broke out in the enthusiasm.

Wang Duo cast his eyes on Li Ye: "Your Highness, look at this..."

Li Ye waved his hand, signaling Wang Duo not to say too much, and said with a smile: "I know what the prince means, and I agree with the prince's opinion. Next, it's time for the Yanmen army to step forward and perform well. After all, they are loyal to the country, regardless of Each other."

When Li Ye said this, Wang Duo was stunned first, then Li Keyong was also stunned, and finally all the generals of the Pinglu army opened their eyes wide and looked at Li Ye in disbelief, wondering why Li Ye would say such a thing. The remarks.

Li Ye didn't seem to see everyone's eyes, and his smile didn't fade: "If General Li has no objection, you can take the lead in going to the battlefield tomorrow and march to Gyeonggi."

Li Keyong was afraid that Li Ye would go back on his word, so he immediately said: "I will have no objection!"

Liu Dazheng, Zhao Polu and others wanted to say something, but Li Ye waved his hand to signal them not to say more.

Yang Fuguang and Zhou Ji looked at each other, and they both saw the doubt in each other's eyes. It stands to reason that King An shouldn't hand over his great future to others. Could it be that King An is really loyal and broad-minded, and has no intention of taking credit for himself? This is too great.

Yang Fuguang looked at Li Ye for a long time.

All matters were decided that day, everyone dispersed, and Li Ye would also go to his own barracks. First, he patrolled around, visited the wounded, and especially counted the ordnance and armor seized by Shangguan Qingcheng, and then came to the central army tent.

Not long after Li Ye sat down, Shangguan Qingcheng arrived first, and then Liu Dazheng and Zhao Polu came together. It seemed that they were quite upset, and they didn't understand why Li Ye let Li Keyong go ahead.

Li Ye asked them to be calm and not to be impatient, and sat down separately, and then ordered someone to serve tea, and then said slowly: "The army has attacked Tongguan for many days, and there have been many casualties. The wounded need to heal their injuries, and the tired soldiers naturally need to rest. It means that if there are only one or two battles in the future, it will be fine, but Huang Chao's elite army of hundreds of thousands cannot be easily defeated, and it will not be easy to conquer Chang'an.

Liu Dazheng was puzzled and said: "Even so, we can still send some troops. There is no need to give all the credit to the Yanmen Army, right?"

Li Ye shook his head: "With so many military achievements, they cannot all belong to the Pinglu Army. If you don't let go of any credits, it will be too ugly, and no one will be willing to join us in the future. As for giving all the credit to the Yanmen Army , General Li thinks, how much credit can the Yanmen Army get?"

Liu Dazheng murmured: "Although Li Ke is not pleasing to the eyes of the general, he has to admit that the Shatuo soldiers are quite capable. They have come out with momentum this time, and it is always no problem to win a few battles."

Li Ye said: "General Liu thinks that within a month, Li Keyong will be able to enter Chang'an?"

Liu Dazheng shook his head, this is of course impossible, Huang Chao's army of one million, no matter how hard it is to fight, there are still some elites in all battles after all.

Li Ye said slowly: "There are three achievements in this battle, breaking Tongguan, restoring Chang'an, and killing Huang Chao. We won the first achievement. Next, let Li Keyong fight head-on with Huang Chao. When the two sides fight fiercely and contain each other's forces, Wouldn't it be a good thing for me to go straight to Chang'an with an elite force?"

Hearing this, the generals finally understood that Li Ye had this idea, and they couldn't help being surprised.

Thinking about it carefully, even if Li Keyong defeated Huang Chao's army, no matter how many beheads he had, his credit would not be comparable to that of conquering Chang'an. As long as the Pinglu army was the first to attack Chang'an, the great merit would be achieved.

"The commander-in-chief is going to use Li Keyong to attract Huang Chao's main force, and then sneak into Chen Cang to draw the bottom line?!" Zhao Polu was quite surprised. Realizing this, he immediately expressed admiration: "The commander-in-chief is wise!"

Zhao Polu used to be a frontier soldier, and he also followed Li Keyong, but since he was captured by Li Ye, he has gradually returned to his heart, and now he has long been Li Ye's loyal minister. Hearing that Li Ye is plotting against Li Keyong, he feels half pitiful for him means nothing.

Liu Dazheng also reacted, and quickly cupped his fists: "The military commander is unparalleled in wisdom, and the general admires it!"

Li Ye smiled and didn't take it seriously.

Shangguan Qingcheng suddenly said: "If Li Keyong kills Huang Chao, it will be a great achievement."

Li Ye said: "Don't worry, Huang Chao is not so easy to die. He is now the Puppet Qi Emperor, and he will not go to the battle to fight himself. He will supervise the battle at most. Even if the battle is unfavorable, there is no problem in escaping."

Speaking of this, Li Ye smiled: "Our army breaks through Tongguan, and Huang Chao is bound to be shocked. In order to save the situation and stabilize the situation, he is bound to attack with a thunderbolt, fight to the death, and send elites to resist our advance. Such a battle, even if we win , It will also cause a lot of losses, it is better to let Li Ke use it to do this kind of thing."

Chang'an.

Ever since Zhu Wen surrendered, Daqi's army has been at a disadvantage in every battle, not to mention that Zhu Wenwen and Wang Chongrong joined forces and eyed Gyeonggi. A lot of pressure.

On this day, after inspecting the barracks, Huang Chao returned to Weiyang Palace, sat down and frowned, thinking about his future.

From time to time, the maids brought fine nectar and jade liquid to Huang Chao to drink. Huang Chao was drinking fine wine, looked up and saw this maid of honor with a beautiful face, her brows were full of spring, quite lovely, she couldn't help moving her index finger, pulled her over, raised her hands up and down, causing her to scream coquettishly.

The court lady wanted to refuse to welcome, but Huang Chao was about to enjoy the warm and fragrant nephrite, when suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the door, and then someone hurriedly reported outside the door: "Your Majesty, the Tongguan Military News is urgent!"

"Tongguan?" Huang Chao frowned. He knew the battle of Tongguan very well. Li Ye led the troops of Pinglu and Zhongwu. , and launched an offensive against Tongguan.

However, according to the battle reports sent back a few days ago, Tongguan is safe for the time being, and there are two Daoist real people sitting there, Huang Chao doesn't think Li Ye and Li Keyong can do anything with Tongguan.

At this time, Huang Chao was startled when he suddenly heard the urgent military report from Tongguan, and wondered if the situation of the battle had changed. In Daqi now, the situation in all directions is not good, that is to say, there is no really powerful vassal army that can defeat the main force of Daqi's army. Huang Chao can barely maintain the situation in Guanzhong, and at the same time rely on the natural danger of Tongguan to keep Li Ye out of the pass.

If there is a loss in Tongguan, the Daqi battle situation that is leaking from all sides will really be poked into a big hole.

Huang Chao didn't care about the beauty's troubles, so he got up quickly, "Submit it quickly!"

The eunuch bowed and stepped quickly into the door. The general reported it over his head and brought it to Huang Chao. After Huang Chao took it and opened it, his face turned pale.
