"His Royal Highness, do you think we still have the ability to take back Jingzhou?"
Li Jiancheng was taken aback by Li Xiaogong's words. He glanced at Li Yuanji who was nearby and asked, "Why didn't we? With the fourth brother here, it is enough to beat Qi Guo without any chance to fight back."
Li Xiaogong shook his head: "Although the Fourth Highness is extremely brave, after all, it was only the strength of one person. In the previous battles, our Tang Dynasty has lost [-] troops, and now only Jiangxia in the entire Jingzhou is in our hands. If we divide our troops to collect Jing In the case of the four southern counties, the Qi army will surely counterattack, and by that time, I am afraid that our remaining tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will not be able to return to Jiankang alive."
"Li Xiaogong, don't you know the importance of Jingzhou? If there is no Jingzhou, you and I will die when we go back."
Li Xiaogong smiled immediately, with a slight mocking gesture on his face.
"Your majesty entrusted me with saving the two highnesses, rather than leading an army to attack the four counties in Jingnan. If the two highnesses have any dissatisfaction, you can directly report to your majesty and impeach the minister."
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were dumbfounded, but the words were on their lips but they couldn't come out.
Li Xiaogong glanced at the two of them and said calmly: "It's getting late, Your Highness should rest earlier." After finishing speaking, he directly threw the camp to the two of them.
Seeing Li Xiaogong's leaving back, Li Jiancheng couldn't swallow his bad breath.
"Brother, this guy doesn't take you seriously at all!"
Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuanji in front of him and said: "He is the minister and I am the lord. How can we listen to his orders. We still have more than 3 people in our hands. Even if we can't win all the four counties with these soldiers and horses, we can regain them anyway." One or two counties!"
"Brother, I think that instead of recovering the four Jingnan counties, we should first defeat the Qi army in this city."
Li Jiancheng frowned slightly, looked at Li Yuanji in front of him and said, "There are nearly [-] Qi troops in this city, and there are many reinforcements from the Qi army around. It's not easy to defeat them!"
Li Yuanji looked around and said in a low voice: "You and I alone can't help, but you forgot? We still have the fourth brother. If the fourth brother makes a move, we will definitely win."
Li Jiancheng was overjoyed at first, but soon calmed down again.
"The fourth brother is indeed mighty and extraordinary, but that is a hundred thousand Qi army. Even if he has great abilities, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist! If there is something wrong with him, you and I will..."
"If there are three good things and two bad things about him, it will really eliminate the serious troubles of our brothers and sisters!" When Li Yuanji said what he said in his heart, he felt a lot more relaxed.
"Are you crazy? The fourth child is our brother, our real brother!"
The corners of Li Yuanji's mouth rose slightly, and he said with a faint smile: "Brother, I just want to ask you, does the fourth brother have a good relationship with you, or with the second child?"
The second child Li Yuanji mentioned was none other than his younger brother, who was favored by many people in the court, Qin Wang Li Shimin.
"Of course it's the second child. No one knows this. Only the second child can control the madness of the fourth child in this dynasty."
"Although the fourth brother is your own younger brother, he has always cared about the second brother. Now you are sitting as the crown prince, but as long as the father is not in the sky, you are just the crown prince. There is still a long way to go before the throne. There is a thin line between us. If it was before, you and I would not be afraid of the second elder brother, but now, you and I have been defeated miserably; while the fourth younger brother can defeat the Qi army, and the second elder brother also guards Xiakou so that the Qi country does not dare to move. This news Boss, father will inevitably be biased, if that's the case, then I'm fine, at worst, I'll suffer some grievances. But eldest brother, your crown prince, I'm afraid..."
"Say!" Li Jiancheng was furious, and his face became more and more gloomy.
"I'm afraid it will become something in the hands of others!"
"Impossible!" Li Jiancheng slammed the table, stood up, and roared loudly.
Li Yuanji hastily pulled him, beckoning in a low voice.
"Brother, I am afraid that the matter of changing the crown prince is not up to you and me! If the emperor really wants to change, he only needs to issue an imperial edict, and he can easily abolish you. Don't forget, this Li Xiaogong is clearly ours. brother, but in fact he cares about the second brother, if he speaks kindly, your situation, big brother..."
The more Li Jiancheng thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was indeed as dangerous as Li Yuanji said.
After thinking about it for a long time, he looked at Li Yuanji who was close at hand and said, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Keep away wolves and tigers. Isn't the fourth brother amazing! Let's encourage him to challenge the Qi army. If he can break through Xiangyang, it will be a great achievement for you and my brother; If it can’t be broken, or if you are killed directly, you and my brother have a lot of lice anyway, so it’s not bad for him, I don’t know how big brother thinks?”
Li Jiancheng paced back and forth in the handsome tent, his brows and eyes were full of sadness.
This matter is extremely dangerous, and the chance of success is very small. If you are not careful, you may lose your head.
"Brother, don't stop, there will be chaos in the future! I hope that the elder brother will make a decision soon, otherwise once we return to Jiankang, it will not be the time for you and my brothers to decide."
Li Jiancheng was threatened many times by Li Yuanji, and finally made up his mind.
Attack Xiangyang!
Chapter 890
Under the city of Xiangyang, Li Yuanba was full of confidence holding the double hammer.
"Big brother, third brother, is there really a master in this city?"
"Yuanba! When did I lie to you, your third brother? Didn't you fight against that master with a gun before! In this city, there are not only him, but also many powerful characters. As long as you fight into the city Go, and they will come out and compete with you."
Li Yuanba muttered in a low voice: "That guy is just like a loach, it's not interesting!"
Seeing that Li Yuanba still seemed to be hesitant, Li Jiancheng continued: "Fourth brother, don't worry, brother is here to assure you, not only that guy, but other masters are waiting for you!"
When Li Yuanba saw that they were all saying this, he became interested and shouted: "Li Yuanba is here too."
There was chaos on the top of the city, and at this moment, Li Yuanba had already reached the moat with a sledgehammer in hand, yelling loudly for the soldiers to throw the ladder on the moat, and he wanted to cross the river on the ladder.
The soldiers dared not refuse, and quickly threw the ladder on the moat.
Seeing Li Yuanba on the top of the city, he hastily fired a volley of arrows, ready to shoot him to death on the other side of the moat.
Li Yuanba swung a pair of sledgehammers so tightly that the arrows couldn't hurt him at all. Stepping on the ladder, he jumped up quickly, and he jumped over the moat several feet wide with ease.
After passing the moat, the city wall of Xiangyang was in front of him. Seeing Li Yuanba getting closer, Chen Qingzhi felt more and more confident.
Wu Yunzhao's sudden arrival was his luck.
Without his sudden arrival, Xiangyang might have fallen yesterday.
In yesterday's battle, although Wu Yunzhao drew with skill, everyone knew that Wu Yunzhao was not Li Yuanba's opponent at all. If the fight continued, Wu Yunzhao would definitely follow in the footsteps of Guan Sheng and Di Lei.
"Captain, let me go!"
Wu Yun summoned Li Yuanba, who was showing off his might below the city, bit the bullet and prepared to call for a fight.
"No, going out of the city at this moment is sending you to your death. How can I just watch you go out of the city to your death?"
Wu Yunzhao said indifferently: "As a general, the shroud of horse leather is our destination. I, Wu Yunzhao, have been lucky enough to meet the Ming Lord for three lives. Now even if I die, I will serve His Majesty. I hope the governor will not stop him."
After finishing speaking, Wu Yunzhao strode down the city with a spear in his hand.
Chen Qingzhi looked at his back, strode to the edge of the war drum, took out the drum hammer and shouted loudly: "Brother, take care, I will beat the drum for you to see you off."
The roaring drums sounded suddenly, as if a person's heartstrings were violently fluctuated, making it difficult to calm down.
Not long after, the gate of the city opened slowly, and a general held a spear, reined in his horse and rushed out, shouting: "Li Yuanba, dare you fight me again?"
Seeing that it was Wu Yunzhao, an old opponent, Li Yuanba laughed and said, "You still dare to come out! Well, let me beat you to death with one blow!"
The breeze brought a bit of coolness, and the cloak behind Wu Yunzhao was blown, but he didn't show the slightest fear at the moment.
