When several cavalry sent by the camp wanted to intercept the Tang army, they were still one step too late.

Qin Qiong led 30,000 Tang troops and had bypassed the Turkic army and arrived at the north bank of the Wei River. Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin led their troops to respond and led Qin Qiong's army through the Xiwei Bridge to the south bank.

Tuli Xiao Khan personally led a large army to chase the north bank of the Wei River, but the autumn flood was in a hurry and the Wei River water rose. The Wei Bridge leading to Chang'an on the Wei River was guarded by the Tang army generals.

Cheng Yaojin guarded the Xiwei Bridge, and Yuchi Gong guarded the Zhongwei Bridge, and the two bridges were ten miles apart.

Qin Qiong's army set up camps among the two armies.

The three generals guarded the south bank of the Wei River and stationed more than 50,000 troops.

At this time, Xianyang County was north of Weiqiao, which was adjacent to the north bank of the Wei River. The terrain was high in the north and low in the south. There were a large number of swamp wetlands from Xianyang County to the Wei River, with reeds growing and willows growing everywhere. In addition, the current autumn floods, the river water surged, flooding many riverside swamps on the north bank.

This allowed Qin Qiong and others to occupy the harmony of the world, have a solid defense line of the Wei River and have enough buffering place.

But behind him was Chang'an City, and the Tang army had no choice but to retreat.

The battle to defend Chang'an has begun.

Chang'an City, East Palace.

In the Lizheng Hall, in the darkness, Li Shimin suddenly sat up, gasping heavily, and sweating all over.

"Your Majesty?" Guanyin maid got up with her clothes and used a sweat towel to wipe Li Shimin's sweat.

"I'm having a nightmare again."

"Did Your Majesty dream of defeating the war again?"

"I dreamed that I was fighting Jie Li. I was about to win, and Jiancheng and Yuanji suddenly came out of Jie Li's army. They were dressed and hairstyle like Turks. They said they were not dead that day, but later they fled to the Turks. Now they came with Jie Li to seek revenge and seek life." Li Shimin murmured, feeling lingering fear.

Guanyin maid got up and went to light the light.

Then he poured a cup of tea for her husband, "Your Majesty drink some water first."

Li Shimin drank water in big mouthfuls, drank the glass of water in one breath, and then he slowly calmed down after he gasped.

"Your Majesty is so nervous that he has had this nightmare."

"This is the first time since June 4th, I have dreamed of Jiancheng and Yuanji." Li Shimin sighed, "Guanyin Bi, do you think I can win this time?"

Changsun gently stroked her husband's back, "Your Majesty, I think about how dangerous it is on the fourth day of the June 19th, but in the end, Your Majesty also survived with the support of Shu Bao Zhijie Jingde Xuanling and others. No matter how dangerous it is now, it is not as good as that time."

There were rapid footsteps.

"Your Majesty, the military is urgently reporting."

Li Shiminteng got out of bed, "What military information?"

"Xu Jingzong, the Chief of the Governor of the Governor of Liangzhou, Qin Qiong, the General of the Left Guard, led his army into the capital to serve the king. When he arrived at the Fortress of Jingyang, he encountered two thousand Turkic troops breaking the fort. Qin Qiong led his army to cover up and killed more than 1,000, beheaded more than 1,000 captives, and captured hundreds of Turkic nobles, Ashidewu, and captured all Turkic nobles, and wiped out all their troops and saved more than a thousand people in the fort."

Li Shimin thought it was bad news, and he was so happy that he danced happily when he heard this.

"Don't Shubao arrive in a few days? Why did he come so quickly!"

"Is there any news?"

"After the Duke of Qi wiped out two thousand Turkic troops, he rushed to the crossroads and broke through the enemy's interception. He arrived at the north bank of the Wei River last night. General Yuchi Gong and Cheng Yaojin were approaching to cross the Wei Bridge. Jie Li personally led a 200,000 army to chase the Wei River!"

When Li Shimin heard that Qin Qiong and the other two guarded the Wei Bridge and blocked Jie Li, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is all yesterday's news, why are you reporting it now?"

The eunuch said nervously, "Due to the Turkic invasion, the palace in the capital strengthened its vigilance. At night, the palace gate was locked and the news could not enter the palace, so we could only wait until the palace gate was opened until the skylight was opened before sending it in.

The palace gates are completely blocked at night and entry and exit are also worried about accidents at such critical moments.

"In the future, you can't wait for such important military affairs for a while, so you must report it immediately." Li Shimin thought for a while, "You can open a small window above the palace gate. If there is an emergency military situation after the palace gate is locked at night, you can go from the prime minister on duty in the imperial city province to report the news to avoid delays."

Changsun smiled and said to her husband, "Your Majesty, look, the good news is here."

"It's good news. When Shubao comes back, I'm not so worried. This battle is good. Although it only kills two thousand enemies, it's time to win such a battle so much that it is necessary to boost morale in the army."

Li Shimin was excitedly circling the ground with barefoot.

"Immediately, Zhao Shubao beg Wuweichu and other prisoners to enter the capital, so that Yongzhou Prefecture can make a lively atmosphere, and let the whole city know that General Qin won another big victory and slapped the Turks loudly in the face."

"No, I want to go to the south gate in person to welcome Shubao into the city."

"I also want to give my uncle a gold palace a robe and allow him to ride a horse through the Suzaku Street and go straight to the Golden Palace!"

Li Shimin became more and more excited the more he spoke.

This time Jie Li's invasion put too much pressure on him.

On the fourth day of June, the army was in danger. Although he successfully seized power, people's hearts were not stable after all. Just a few days after he ascended the throne, Jie Li had already reached the city of Chang'an.

For him, the new emperor who was in a bad position, he was so stressed that he couldn't breathe and had nightmares at night.

The danger of a large army coming to Chang'an City was actually not what he was most worried about. What he was most worried about was whether the inside and outside of the Tang Dynasty could be united and whether it could be consistent with the outside world.

What he fears most is that when he fights with all his might, someone will stab him in the back.

Qin Qiong came in time, and the gift he gave was even more timely.

Inspiring.

"Your Majesty, it's already autumn, it's cold in the morning, put on your shoes."

At this moment, Li Shimin only felt excited and hot, so how could he feel cold?

"Where is that little bastard Qin Lang, is he still locked up at home to reflect on him?" Li Shimin asked.

Changsun took the shoes and bent down to put them on for Li Shimin. "How come Your Majesty forgets? Didn't he even send some oil tea fried noodles to the palace yesterday? After His Majesty ate them, he said the taste was OK and praised Qin Lang's good idea of ​​using fried noodles as marching dry food. He said that Qin Lang would think about the next good recipe and let the Ministry of War try it out. If it is a good method, it will be promoted to the army at that time."

Li Shimin snorted, "This kid is a third-rank man. He is too big to use it. When he is employed, I will no longer care about his crimes. Let's keep it in the account and ask him to go out quickly. At this time, the tutoring department still needs him to preside over the presidency."

"Immediately go to Pingkangfang to send an order, and order Qin Lang to resume his original position immediately, and ask him to go to Weiqiao to welcome Shubao back to Chang'an on my behalf."

Let Qin Lang, who was originally accused of being a family, regain his post and go to Weiqiao to welcome Qin Shubao into Chang'an City. This is also a reward for Qin Shubao.

Qin Lang got up early in the morning and was preparing to think about some new products. In the past few days, he has developed eighteen oil tea fried noodles recipes and made them one by one, with good results. In addition, he has also developed Guokui, compressed oil cakes, fried rice, meat floss, etc.

Today I am going to study some protein powder. The raw materials are locusts, small fish, shrimps, frogs, river clams, snails, fish bones and soybean meal, and grind them into powder. This thing is actually chicken feed in later generations. However, he considered that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty today, especially when they set out on the battlefield, could not keep up with the nutritional supplements, especially protein and various trace elements, so he thought of making some fish bone powder, adding some salt to it, each soldier gave a small packet, rinsed it with water, and ate it directly. It could also be supplemented during difficult marches and wars.

He even planned to make green juice after the new product was developed. He was forced to drink a lot of green juice by his wife in his later generations, but his research found that as long as the tender leaves of ordinary crops can be made green juice, tender wheat seedlings and tender vegetables. This thing is rich in chlorophyll and many substances richer than mature plants, which is indeed useful for body health care.

For people who usually have insufficient vegetables, this thing is very beneficial. Of course, people with normal diets actually don’t help much, after all, eating vegetables directly is the same.

Qin Lang thought about making some tender leaves for processing. How to do it? Before he could figure it out, he planned to try it out first and then dry it and then powder it. When he wanted to eat it, he would also drink it directly. In fact, it was similar to instant noodles with vegetable ingredients.

Compared with the traditional pickles eaten in the army, pickles are obviously healthier. After all, studies have long shown that many pickles pickles that are only pickled with old braised water have a salty taste that is actually just a taste and does not contain salt. Therefore, eating them will deceive the taste and mouth, which is actually not helpful to the human body. People who could not afford to eat salt actually have no benefits to eat pickles. This is the reason.

Only those who really use salt can temporarily use salt.

Qin Lang thinks pickles are good and delicious, but if you consider nutrition, it is not the best choice. Why not try his fish bone meal and green powder.

He was writing a list for the servants at home and asked them to go out to purchase the various experimental materials needed, but Xu Jingzong came to his house.

The two chief clerks of Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou of the Pacification Department were both gone, and Cui Dunli and Zheng Xuanli of the Sima were also transferred one after another. Qin Lang had already left the yamen to work in Hebei. As soon as he came back, he presided over the division of the small treasury of the sect, and was dismissed. Xu Jingzong became the temporary supreme chief of the sect, and temporarily presided over the sect.

Without Qin Lang, Ma Zhou and others, he felt very good in the Sili now.

Who knew that Qin Lang had just been dismissed for a few days, but today the palace issued an order asking him to come and invite Qin Lang back to resume his post.

"Sanlang, your Majesty loves you very much."

Xu Jingzong tasted the new product of Qin's secret oil tea, which is a luxurious version, with beef marrow bone oil plus eighteen kinds of nut kernels, and even good tea leaves, millet, soybeans, wheat, and fried, and fresh milk.

When boiled on low heat, it was really full of tea.

Wei Chang still respected Qin Lang very much and told him the news that Qin Qiong had led the Liangzhou royal army to Beijing and won a great victory.

"I, Aye, are back? Then what are you waiting for? Let's go to Weiqiao to welcome Aye back to Beijing!"

I have been locked up at home for only a few days and I have been studying these things all day long. I am indeed a little bored.
Chapter completed!
