Datang: Destroy Tang Taizong Li Xiao at the beginning

Chapter 358: Three days later, attack Qiongzhou!

Qiongzhou.

in the lobby.

Li Xiao sat on it.

Wei Tianxing stood at the bottom, cupped his fists respectfully and said, "Your Highness, Xiang Jun has sent the latest information."

After finishing speaking, he held a notebook and handed it to the guard next to him.

"Let me see."

Li Xiao suddenly felt refreshed.

The guard took the notebook and handed it to Li Xiao.

When he opened it, a hint of doubt flashed in Li Xiao's eyes.

"Enzhou? Wang Xiao?"

Raising his head, Li Xiao looked at Li Junxian: "Uncle Li, do you know this person?"

"I've heard the name, but I don't know much about it." Li Junxian said after thinking about it.

"Go and check."

"Yes!"

Li Junxian cupped his fists and left.

In the past three years, Li Xiao has not devoted himself to scientific research and development.

There are also special personnel to collect some intelligence in Datang.

To this end, he also set up a special archives.

Not long after, Li Junxian came back again, still holding a booklet in his hand.

"Your Highness, my subordinates have checked. This Wang Xiao was originally a member of the Jinyang Wang Family's collateral lineage. His father's generation had a relationship with the main line of the Wang Family. Afterwards, the two parties parted ways and have no contact with each other since then."

After speaking, Li Junxian handed over the booklet to Li Xiao.

"The royal family of Jinyang?"

Li Xiao frowned: "A member of Wang Qingxue's family?"

"Although they are of the same blood, they don't fight each other, and even hate each other." Li Junxian continued.

Li Xiao stopped talking, but flipped through the booklet in his hand.

The above records the general experience of Wang Xiao.

This person is 42 years old and has three sons and a daughter.

He entered the court as an official more than ten years ago, and then moved to Enzhou as a civil servant.

At that time, when the heroes were divided and occupied the land as the king, Wang Xiao betrayed the then Lord of Enzhou, and joined forces with Li Xiaogong to help the court regain Enzhou.

Therefore, he obtained first-class meritorious service and was promoted by the imperial court to be the prefect of Enzhou.

"This is a traitor!"

Li Xiao couldn't help but said: "You only gained your status after betraying the old master. This kind of person is probably not a good thing."

"Your Highness."

Li Junxian smiled wryly: "The previous governor of Enzhou betrayed the imperial court, so there is nothing wrong with him doing so."

"How is Enzhou's strength?" Li Xiao continued to ask.

"not sure."

Li Junxian said thoughtfully: "But since Lin Yang went to rely on him, he must think that Wang Xiao has a certain strength, at least much stronger than Lin Yang himself."

"Too."

Li Xiao nodded: "Lin Yang is just a captain with limited power, and this Wang Xiao controls the entire Enzhou, no one knows what he does in private."

"How should Your Highness respond?" Li Junxian asked.

"Leave him alone."

Li Xiao's eyes darkened, and he said thoughtfully, "There are too few fish, wait until there are more fish before collecting the net."

"Understood." Li Junxian nodded.

……

Leizhou.

Pingyanggou.

Ning Yuanpei came here with a group of generals and advisers.

Now, this place is already a mess, and the corpses have been disposed of long ago, leaving only blood and corpse fragments all over the ground.

After several days of sun exposure, the whole place was filled with a strong stench, which made everyone hold their noses.

"What the hell happened here?"

A general looked at the deep pits all over the ground, and the rotten corpses, with deep doubts in his eyes.

Beside, the Qinzhou generals and counselors were all stunned by the sight in front of them.

What kind of tragic battle could leave such strange traces?

At the front, Ning Yuanpei's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he said in a deep voice, "Check out the situation here!"

"Yes!"

……

Soon after, in the camp of the Chinese army.

"My lord, the battlefield and the vicinity have been searched, but no complete body has been found."

"As for the weapons and armor, they have already been removed."

A general came to report.

Hearing this, Ning Yuanpei looked at Wu under the tent, and said in a deep voice, "What do you think?"

"grown ups."

A counselor cupped his hands and said, "Obviously, General Ning has been here before."

"A few days ago, the movement we heard was transmitted from here. At that time, there should be two groups of people fighting here."

"Perhaps General Ning left after cleaning the battlefield after fighting with the enemy."

"Also, General Ning should have encountered the same situation as us."

"The scout he sent to send a message to the Lord was also killed by a secret master, so we have not received a message from General Ning."

"Now, General Ning should be recuperating in a place not far ahead. I think I should be able to see General Ning soon."

Ning Yuanpei nodded and said, "I'm not worried about this. My second brother brought eight thousand cavalry, all of whom are elites from Qinzhou. Nothing can happen, just..."

After a pause, Ning Yuanpei continued: "Can you see what caused the deep pit left on the battlefield just now?"

"This one……"

All the counselors suddenly became thoughtful.

After a while, a general said suspiciously: "Leaving such a deep pit, only a catapult can have such power, but there is no trace of a large stone at the scene..."

"Have you noticed that there are scorched marks in every deep pit?"

"Could it be a stone poured with fire oil?"

"How did this strange image appear? What happened here?"

Everyone discussed for a long time, but could not come to a conclusion.

Ning Yuanpei's face was not very good-looking, and then he asked: "Don't worry about this, how is Leizhou City doing?"

"grown ups."

A general came out and clasped his fists and said: "According to the report from the dispatched vanguard, Leizhou City is under martial law at this time, and there are traces of a large number of people passing by all around. It seems that they are already dispatching troops to guard against us."

"only these?"

Ning Yuanpei frowned slightly,

At this moment, he was extremely irritable.

Since there are masters hunting and killing scouts in the dark, he can only send thousands of cavalry as scouts.

But even so, it would take a lot of risk.

Once you fall into the enemy's encirclement, it is very difficult to come back alive.

But I didn't expect that after taking such a big risk, I only found out such a little news.

What he most wanted to know about Ning Qianjun's whereabouts, there was no news at all.

"My lord, now that Leizhou City has shrunk into a tortoise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with."

A counselor stood up and said: "And even if we succeed in attacking, we will have to pay a heavy price, why not..."

"Speak up if you have something to say!" Ning Yuanpei frowned even deeper.

The counselor continued: "It's better to wait for my Qinzhou warship to arrive. We will take Qiongzhou first, and after recuperating, we will come back and attack Leizhou."

"It's also a good time to use this time to solve the master who secretly assassinated our scouts, and find out the situation in Leizhou City. It will be beneficial and harmless."

"Yes, I agree too."

Another counselor got up and said, "Compared to Leizhou, Qiongzhou is more fragile, and it doesn't take much of our soldiers and supplies to attack."

"After capturing Qiongzhou, we can take the opportunity to resupply and restore to its full strength before attacking the tricky Leizhou."

"At that time, even if we both lose to Leizhou, we don't have to worry about Qiongzhou taking advantage of it."

"When will the warship arrive?" Ning Yuanpei asked with a frown.

This time, his plan was that Leizhou and Qiongzhou would not let them go.

Therefore, warships were prepared in the follow-up to cross the sea and land in Qiongzhou.

"After three days at the latest, our warship will be here."

"Ah."

Ning Yuanpei nodded: "Then fix it for three days. In these three days, we must solve the problem of the assassination of the scouts. Do you hear me?"

"As ordered!"

All the generals clasped their fists together.

Suddenly, Ning Yuanpei looked at the ground in ecstasy, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Three days later, attack Qiongzhou!

Chapter 359: Reluctant to let the child not catch the wolf

Leizhou City Palace, in the lobby.

A guard came in quickly.

"My lord, this is a letter just sent from Qiongzhou." The guard presented the letter respectfully.

The letter was handed over to Li Yuanze. When he opened it, he frowned.

Xu Zian's expression changed, and he asked, "My lord, what did Li Xiao say? Did you agree to help fight against Qinzhou?"

"See for yourself!"

Li Yuanze, with a gloomy face, handed the letter to Xu Zian.

After a pause, he said with a sad face: "This damned Li Xiao, after taking so much money and supplies from me, he wants more."

It was clearly written in the letter that Qiongzhou had important matters to deal with, so he could not come for the time being, and could only rely on himself.

The implication of this is clearly that he dislikes him for not giving enough money.
