Chapter 2250 Recovering Badong

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    For Li Tang, the defeat of the Kaizhou barbarians was a relatively heavy blow.

    Originally, during the Battle of Guanzhong, Li Tang lost Guanzhong, which had already made the remaining Guanlong family distrustful of him.  Some people even doubt whether the Li family can still defend Bashu.

    The defeat of Tongzhou completely proved that Li Tang was unable to resist the enemy. If Li Shimin, who had just entered the war, could not successfully win, the remaining Guanlong people and the Bashu family would have to find ways to survive.

    Don¡¯t blame these people for being realistic. After all, food is the original sin at any time.

    Li Shimin also knew the importance of this battle, so after receiving his father's order, he rushed directly from Fengzhou (Hechi County) to the Tongzhou front line.

    At this time, Tongzhou was defeated and morale was low. Even the general Li Chen was injured. After seeing Li Shimin, his face was full of embarrassment and helplessness.

    He tried really hard, but he just couldn't beat him. Kaizhouman's bravery gave him a huge shock.

    "Erlang, Kaizhou is very strong and invincible."

    Li Shimin obviously did not take his cousin's advice to heart. On the second day after taking over the army, he prepared to fight Ran Zhaoze again.

    Li Chen is not optimistic about this.

    When Li Chen marched eastward, he brought 10,000 troops with him. Nearly half of his previous troops were lost, leaving less than 6,000 troops.  Li Shimin came south with 3,000 troops, and the two sides combined totaled less than 10,000 people.

    "The Kaizhou barbarians on the opposite side numbered at least nearly 10,000 people.  The morale of the Tang army, which was defeated in the battle, was low. They were already afraid of the Kaizhou barbarians. At this time, they did not calm the morale of the army and stabilize the front, but were eager for a decisive battle. If they were defeated, the entire front line would collapse.

    It¡¯s a pity that Li Chen couldn¡¯t persuade Li Shimin at all.

    Li Shimin believed that the Kaizhou barbarians did not understand military strategy and relied on bravery to fight.  If they had won the previous battle, they would have underestimated the enemy. If the Tang army attacked their camp at night, they would definitely win.

    The generals had some doubts about this, and Li Shimin immediately issued the order without explaining it to everyone.

    But seeing the order, Li Chen was stunned again. Li Shimin actually decided to personally lead 800 cavalry as the vanguard to raid the Kaizhou barbarians, while Li Chen led an army to go around and set up an ambush behind Tongzhou.

    Li Chen really didn¡¯t understand that as a coach, he took the risk of being a vanguard.  He hurriedly advised Li Shimin not to take too many risks, let alone put himself in danger.

    Li Chen may have good intentions, but because of his repeated dissuasion, Li Shimin became angry and said directly: "If my cousin does not dare to fight, you can return to Chengdu. I will fight this battle myself."

    Li Chen blushed at Li Shimin's remarks and did not dare to say anything.

    At night, Li Shimin personally led 800 cavalry, with men and horses holding their mouths, and quietly advanced to the vicinity of the Kaizhou barbarian camp.

    It has to be said that, as Li Shimin expected, Kaizhou Man was fascinated by the previous victory, so he thought that the Tang army was vulnerable.

    At this time, the Kaizhou barbarians were extremely arrogant and did not even think that the Tang army would dare to make a sneak attack, so they slept soundly in the camp.  As for defense, there is none.

    So Li Shimin ordered his men to attack the Kaizhou barbarians.

    For a time, the Tang army rushed into the barbarian camp like wolves and tigers.  The barbarian army camp was in chaos, and the soldiers fled in all directions.  Ran Zhao was in the chaos and couldn't find any troops at all, so he had to mount his horse and rush back with his own soldiers.

    But Ran Zhaoze had no idea that there was a dead end ahead.  Not long after escaping, he fell into Li Shimin's trap again.

    After Li Chen was ordered to set up an ambush, he thought it was a useless job, but he didn't expect Ran Zhaoze to actually come.  So Li Chen led his troops to fight out, intercepted Ran Zhao and fought with him.

    24378  Kaizhou barbarians beheaded thousands of people and captured more than 5,000 people.  Even Ran Zhaoze, the leader of the Kaizhou barbarians, did not escape and was killed among the rebels.

    This time 7*5z w.com Zhang Si.  After defeating Ran Zhaoze, Li Shimin quickly marched towards Kaizhou City.

    At the same time, Li Shimin also ordered people to appease the chiefs of Kaizhou barbarians.  After Ran Zhaoze's death, the power of his tribe was greatly reduced. The successors could not suppress the Kaizhou barbarians at all, and each tribe immediately fell into pieces. The Tang army fought and pulled, and soon surrendered the Kaizhou barbarians.

    Li Shimin pacified the Kaizhou barbarians and continued to lead his army eastward.

    At this time, Li Yuan also appointed Li Shimin as Shannan Daoxingtai Shangshuling, controlling more than 20 states in the Bahan area outside Jiejiange.  At the critical moment, Li Shimin still trusted his son.

    Li Shimin then joined forces with Li Xiaogong and surrounded Wanzhou.

    Guarding Wanzhou was General Liu Shifang under Xiao Janti. Seeing that he was surrounded by the Tang army, he immediately asked Xiao Janti for help.

      For Xiao Chati, both Kaizhou and Tongzhou were lost, and a hand deep into Brazil was completely cut off.  And if Wanzhou was lost again, he would have to stick to the city of Renfu (now Baidi City, Fengjie, Chongqing), which would mean that almost all the results of his entry into Shu were lost.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    So Xiao Changti decided to go to Wanzhou in person to rescue Liu Shifang.

    But this is exactly what Li Shimin wanted.

    Li Shimin is best at defensive counterattacks, but by Huang Mingyuan's side, he has learned Huang Mingyuan's best skill of encirclement and support.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Those who resolve complicated disputes do not control the fists, those who rescue the fight do not fight, criticize the overpowering and suppress the weak, and restrain the form and situation, then they will solve the problem by themselves.

    So Li Shimin ordered Li Xiaogong to set up an ambush east of Wanzhou.

    Sure enough, Xiao Chanti and his army arrived suddenly, but were caught off guard and killed by Li Xiaogong, who fled in panic.  At this time, Li Shimin had already ordered General Hou Junji to lead Kaizhou troops to surrender, pretending to be Liang Jun's defeated troops, and fled to Baidi City.

    The defenders of Baidi City did not distinguish the true from the false, so they let the hurried Hou Jun gather into the city. Hou Jun gathered a center to bloom, and the Badong Strong City fell.

    After Hou Junji defeated the city, he did not change the flag and still pretended to be Liang Jun's city.

    Xiao Chanti fled back in embarrassment and plunged into Baidi City, where he was gathered by Hou Jun to catch the turtle in the urn.  Xiao Jati was captured, and all the remaining troops surrendered to the Tang army.

    Li Shimin ordered people to take the captured Xiao Chati to Wanzhou City and chop off Xiao Chatti's head in front of the Wanzhou defenders.  Liu Shifang, the defender of Wanzhou, was greatly frightened and surrendered Wanzhou City to the Tang Dynasty.

    Li Shimin did not give up and continued eastward, surrendering Wushan and Guizhou along the way.

    Li Shimin pointed his troops at Shizhou again. Ran Anchang, a native chief in Shizhou, did not dare to fight the Tang army and immediately raised a lowered flag.

    Although Ran Anchang and Ran Mieze have the same surname, they are not from the same family.  Ran Anchang claimed to be the sixth-generation grandson of Ran Min. His great-grandfather was the Pingnan General of the Southern Qi Dynasty, the Jingzhou Governor, the Governor of Xinzhou, the Sanqi Changshi, Suiyang Gong Ran Daozhou. He also married the Nankang Princess of the Southern Qi Dynasty, but he gradually became barbaric.

    Control the big one and control the owl.  Li Shimin was overjoyed to see the Ran family surrender. This would be an opportunity for the Li family to reach out to the barbarians in Guizhou and Hunan.

    Li Yuan was even more strategic and knew the importance of the Ran family. He made Ran Anchang the governor of Xinzhou and the Duke of Huang Guo; his son Ran Rencai was the governor of Puzhou and Duke of Wushang, and made Li Xiaogong's sister the head of Hannan County.

    With the help of the Ran family, all the barbarians from Badong, Qingjiang and other places surrendered to Li Tang, thus completely closing their eastern gate.
