160 Jiu Gaoqiu Sends Troops

"Are you from Ningzhou Pengyuan?" Zhao Huan asked.

A trace of surprise flashed across Li Xiaozhong's face, and he replied: "The young general's family has moved to Gongzhou."

Yes, this is the man, Zhao Huan is very happy.

Li Xiaozhong is indeed not very famous, but this is his real name, he changed his name to Li Yanxian.

In the first year of Jingkang, Jin soldiers invaded Bianjing, and Li Yanxian dispersed his wealth and recruited three thousand kings of soldiers and horses.

This is the festival.

There are tens of millions of people in China who can take the initiative to go bankrupt and recruit soldiers to support Tokyo. In fact, very few.

Those who can do this are all people with integrity.

At that time, Li Gang was ordered to appease Lianghe, and Li Yanxian wrote to impeach Li Gang for his ignorance of military skills. As a result, he was hunted down by a department and had to change his name and flee.

At that time, Li Gangquan was in power, and Li Yanxian, a proper boss, dared to write a letter of impeachment, which showed his integrity.

Such a person, no wonder he didn't save any face for King Yun.

However, he is not a top-notch person.

He speaks bluntly and remonstrates, and runs away decisively after being wanted, which shows that he is good at changing.

After fleeing, the Jin soldiers occupied Hedong, and Li Yanxian joined the army again in order to serve the country.

The heart of patriotism and national salvation can be seen with every fist.

After the fall of Hedong, Li Yanxian went to Shanzhou to meet Li Mida, the general in charge. Li Mida asked for advice on Northwest Defense. He made pertinent suggestions and gave detailed answers.

Later, the Jin soldiers invaded Bianjing again, and Fan Zhixu, commander of the Yongxing army, commanded the six-way army to reinforce. Before setting off, Li Yanxian suggested: "It is difficult to garrison troops because of the dangerous situation, and it is difficult for the army to move forward, and it is easy to break up. They should divide their ways and go out at the right time." Close. Shaanxi should be guarded with half of the army before further action can be taken."

Fan Zhixu was self-willed and did not listen to advice. Instead, he blamed Li Yanxian for being greedy for life and fear of death, and depressed the morale of the army, so he dismissed Li Yanxian from his post.

Afterwards Fan Zhixu marched into Qianqiu Town, he was caught off guard by the Jin soldiers, he was defeated and his soldiers fled.

This Fan Zhixu is the Minister of Political Affairs who has just been promoted.

The development of the situation is also as Li Yanxian said, which shows his strategy of anticipating the enemy's first opportunity.

In the first year of Jianyan, Jin soldiers invaded Shanzhou, and the economic system envoy Wang Xie couldn't resist, so he led his troops to flee.

Cough, this Wang Xie is Dong Gong Shao Zhan.

Think about it, these two pig teammates of Li Yanxian, one is friendly with the East Palace, and the other is in the East Palace, which really makes Zhao Huan feel complicated.

Of course, the emotion was fleeting, and Zhao Huan continued to think about Li Yanxian's record.

After Wang Xie fled, Li Yanxian gathered and resettled the people with Shi Haowei, trained the army, and stood firm at Sanzui Mountain.

Soon, the Jin soldiers came to attack, and there was a fierce Jin general standing in front of the stronghold and shouting loudly. Li Yanxian rushed down the stronghold single-handedly, captured him alive with lightning speed, and carried him back to the mountain, shocking the two armies.

Winning the hearts of the people, being able to run the army, and having courage, isn't it a famous general?

After the battle, Li Yanxian first sent some elite soldiers to ambush, and then fought head-on with the Jin soldiers. When the two sides were fighting, the ambush soldiers suddenly came from behind and killed them. The Jin soldiers were caught off guard and fled in chaos.

Li Yanxian led his troops to take advantage of the victory to chase and kill more than 300 people, and seized [-] horses. He became famous in the first battle.

Li Yanxian then divided his troops into four groups and captured more than 50 Jinren camps one after another.

When the Jin soldiers entered and occupied Shanzhou City, they garrisoned those who surrendered to Shunqing and the soldiers who had not fled. Li Yanxian secretly sent soldiers to mix in, and agreed on a time to attack Shanzhou City from inside and outside.

In the second year of Jianyan, Li Yanxian led his troops to attack the south gate of Shanzhou. The brothers in the city set fire to it, and another navy army sneaked in from the northeast of the city.

Li Yanxian took advantage of the victories to cross the Yellow River, won successive victories, and regained a large area of ​​lost ground.

Afterwards, Shao Xing led the crowd back, this is the god teammate in the East Palace, not much to say.

Lou Su, the ruler of the Jin Dynasty, respected Li Yanxian's talents and tried to send envoys to persuade him to surrender, but Li Yanxian flatly refused and beheaded the envoys.

In the third year of Jianyan, Lou Su led an army of 1 to attack Shanzhou.

Li Yanxian sat on the firewood building, calm and relaxed. While drinking, he ordered his soldiers to play drums and music, but secretly ordered the soldiers to dig deep tunnels, leading directly to the Jinbing camp.

After nightfall, he sent healthy soldiers out of the tunnel to attack the camp, and led his army to rush out of the city. The Jin soldiers were defeated and retreated several miles to set up camp.

However, the enemy was outnumbered, Shanzhou City was under siege, Li Yanxian was injured by Jinren's artillery fire, his whole body was rotten, and he was still fighting fiercely.

The army was weak, food and grass were scarce, and there were no reinforcements from outside. In the end, the city was broken. Li Yanxian resisted unyieldingly and his left arm was cut off.

In order to avoid being captured and humiliated, Li Yanxian escaped by crossing the river. On the way, he heard that the Jin soldiers were massacring the city. He was unwilling to live, so he threw himself into the river and died at the age of 36.

His whole family was also slaughtered by Jin soldiers, only one younger brother and one son survived.

How could Zhao Huan not love such a brave and resourceful general who is unparalleled in loyalty and filial piety?

"Your Highness." Seeing Zhao Huan pondering himself, Wang Jin couldn't help reminding him.

Of course he could see that the prince liked the man in front of him quite a lot.

"Guan Xiaozhong's physique, he must be a good general. It's really delayed in the idle imperial army. Why don't you please transfer to the East Palace?" Wang Jin said again.

"Thank you for the love of the two armies, but Commander Liu Du has already sent out and is currently counting the troops along the border, and he plans to use troops against Xixia in the near future.

The young general thought that if he stayed in the imperial army, he would be able to conquer Xixia sooner or later, so he didn't want to enter the East Palace. "Li Xiaozhong said.

clever!Zhao Huan praised secretly.

It is not a secret that Liu Fa has been sent abroad, but those who are interested in rectifying the troops along the border do not know it at all, let alone associate it with the conquest of Xixia.

"The conquest of Xixia requires three to five years of preparations. You are really wasting your time in the imperial army. Why don't you enter the Eastern Palace to strengthen your skills?" Zhao Huan persuaded.

Hearing this, Li Xiaozhong hesitated.

After all, he is only a ten-man general, and he can see that the conquest of Xixia is already the limit, and he certainly does not know the specific plan.

Waiting for three to five years is really too long.

Su Yuanjing is not bad, but the imperial guards of the bodyguard department, that's what it is, even if they don't have the opportunity to go out, they can't learn anything, and they can only waste time in it.

After thinking for a moment, Li Xiaozhong bowed: "Thanks to His Highness's favor, the young general is willing to enter the East Palace."

"Okay, okay~" Zhao Huan helped him up, and asked again: "I don't know Xiaozhong, would you like to change your name?"

Li Xiaozhong was puzzled, but he didn't ask any further questions, he just said: "But it's up to Your Highness to decide."
