Chapter 739 Penglai Changes Owner

If Li Yuanba hadn't just listened to Li Shimin, they might have been able to use some extraordinary means.

Changsun Sheng was afraid and avoided the cold arrow and immediately took his personal soldiers to retreat. Seeing this, Li Yuanji knew that he could not delay, and he had to make up for the killing of the enemy general.

He rushed over quickly with his personal guards.

Li Shimin gave up without success and took action again. He looked at Li Yuanji as if the two had already communicated with each other with their eyes.

"Fourth brother, slow down the attack speed."

His fourth brother is Li Yuanba. Since he can't get this credit, he is ready to fight steadily. Li Yuanji may not be able to succeed in the melee.

Li Shimin had already planned, otherwise he would not have helped with his troops at the beginning. The main reason was that he had sent someone to investigate Changsun Sheng. It would be very dangerous if the distance was too close.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Although Li Yuanba is powerful, he is easy to avoid hidden arrows and cannot defend against open guns. The cold arrow he just fired just now, and he succeeded with just one point.

He will not take risks with his life, at least the situation is not worth it now.

Li Yuanji pursued, and Changsun Sheng brought arrows from his personal guards, turned around and took several arrows away.

Li Yuanji was also very frightened.

"This third brother is so reckless."

Li Jiancheng has been observing the situation here. He has seen the situation here by the local chief and is also worried about his third brother.

The archery technique of passing through the sun for hundreds of steps is the most dangerous on the battlefield.

Li Yuanji has lost several personal guards. Of course, he saw that there was danger, but what could he do if this is the battlefield?

Lai Hu'er and his men returned to the city wall and saw the melee outside the city. He quickly saw the person coming clearly.

The Li family's flag was not a vanguard soldier because he knew the vanguard soldier's flag. If you observe carefully, you will know that it was the soldiers of the Duke of Tang, Taiyuan Prefecture.

Lai Hu'er not only did not feel relaxed but became nervous. He could not be sure whether the newcomer was an enemy or a friend.

"Send troops to block the city gates firmly."

The Penglai soldiers did as they did. At this time, the imperial court's troops had withdrawn and were chased by the Li family's troops and fled.

Li Jiancheng watched from a distance and sent out the troops to plunder the formation, and all the soldiers and horses of the Li family were put into battle.

"Listen to what they are shouting?"

When Lai Hu'er asked on the city wall, everyone in the Li family was shouting, a little further away from them.

"General, what they shouted is, put down the butcher's knife and squat on the ground and don't kill him."

The sound became louder and louder, and the Li family's soldiers were getting closer and closer to Penglai City.

Lai Hu'er understood that it was just about incorporating these people, and she had a higher opinion of Li Jiancheng in her heart.

Changsun Sheng was defeated and not many soldiers left in the court followed him and fled.

Most of them chose to put down their weapons when they were besieged, and they dared not use their lives to bet on their character.

The battle outside the city was completely controlled by the soldiers who suddenly appeared in the Li family. It was very polite to come to Hu'er to see the opponent's general coming.

"General Li, thank you for your help." Lai Hu'er clasped her fists on the city wall.

Why don’t you feel grateful at the gate of the city? Because it’s not certain whether it’s an enemy or a friend. If you go down and get taken down directly, you really have no power to resist.

"You're welcome. General Lai Hu'er must be clear about your current situation. People don't say secret words. This time we are all here on the order of our father, Duke Tang, to negotiate with the general. The Li family wants to take over Penglai City."

"Can the general be willing to submit to the Duke of Tang?"

Li Jiancheng made the point straight to the point and made it clear, and the troops under the city had already been waiting for it.

Lai Hu'er is a person who knows the current affairs. He knew that those who could come to rescue him would never do anything in vain. He claimed that he had not yet had a good relationship with the Li family.

There were not tens of thousands of soldiers left in Penglai City, and there were no arrows on the city walls. The continuous combat soldiers were exhausted both physically and mentally.

After thinking about it for a while, he made a decision.

"Haha, follow me to welcome the Li family's troops into the city."

The Penglai soldiers in the city immediately began to line up to greet them.

Li Jiancheng and his men walked into the city in a swagger. Li Shimin did not follow Li Yuanji to pursue Changsun Sheng who was fleeing.

When the two sides met at the General's Mansion, they immediately made a clear attitude when they came to Hu'er to serve, but their majesty as a general was still there.

"I will rely on the eldest son from now on."

Lai Hu'er didn't hand over the military talisman directly without saying a word. There were not many people left in Penglai soldiers, so he didn't have to worry so much if he handed over it.

Changsun Sheng almost let him lose his life here, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt weak.

The reputation of Duke Tang was very reliable and was very polite to the princes of the Li family, and then made a series of handovers.

After Li Jiancheng received the military talisman, he had to give the military talisman to Li Shimin again.

This is what his father meant. After taking Penglai, Li Shimin was governed. Having military talismans meant that he had more helpers.

Li Jiancheng also knew that his mission had been completed.

After talking about some things, the few people started to work hard. General Hu'er's identity was retained but he did not have to work for the time being.

After Li Shimin took over Penglai, he immediately began to implement new government orders.

Merchants and farmers are treated with excellent treatment and cooperated with local wealthy businessmen to open workshops.

Li Jiancheng looked down on what Li Shimin did very much, but there was no way for this method to bring benefits to them.

Penglai City changed its lord, Duke Tang, and Changsun Sheng fled back to Jiangling with less than 10,000 people. Emperor Yang of Sui was angry, but now there was no way to let Changsun Sheng stay in Jiangling.

After learning that Changsun Sheng failed, the noble group did not blame him, but pointed the finger at the Li family in Taiyuan Prefecture.

Some people think that the strength of the Li family can be used, but when they were undecided, there were 30,000 soldiers and horses in the court in Penglai.

In addition, the remaining 20,000 soldiers who could fight in Penglai formed a 50,000 troops again.

Li Jiancheng brought Lai Hu'er and 100,000 troops to attack Jiangling City directly.

Penglai City was left to Li Shimin for eight thousand soldiers and horses.

After the court learned that the Battle of Penglai had failed, Li Jiancheng's troops had surrounded Jiangling City.

Changsun Sheng had less than 40,000 troops and horses, and there was no other way except to defend the city.

Half of the people Li Jiancheng was brought from Penglai City. It was not long since they were blocked by the imperial army and the siege of the city. Fengshui took turns to attack the city and tried extra hard.

"When will the support of General Changsun's court arrive? The enemy has launched three consecutive attacks. If we continue, it will be a matter of time before we lose."

"What did you say, dare to shake the morale of the army."

Changsun Sheng was very angry and ordered the general to rectify the Dharma.

In this way, the generals around them never spoke again, and they would die if they disagree. They were all afraid.

They could only stick to the city, and Changsun Sheng knew that the court had no response at all.

He could only persist with his beliefs, and he himself didn't know the result.

The Duke of Tang from Taiyuan Prefecture had long received the news that it would be a matter of time to take down Jiangling City, and I believe it will take a few days.

The people he sent to investigate the court did not send any reinforcements at all.

As long as there are no reinforcements, one is not afraid at all.
